Chapter 238 Collusion
When there was chaos inside, the people who were originally surrounded by the gate rushed in in a swarm, and they all gathered in the yard.I was very curious about what happened, why did the people of the Xiao family run out yelling?

The few people who ran fast came to the door of the main room first, and saw the situation inside clearly.

Good guy!
"Knife...Knife! Fourteenth Niang is holding a knife!" The first person who screamed was not so much frightened as it was a novelty, or the excitement of seeing the excitement.

……

There is no shortage of courageous people who want to watch the excitement anywhere, and while they are ready to run at any time, they surround the entrance of the main room with water tight, scrambling to peek inside.

This man surnamed Zhang is just an accountant, and he only deals with abacus on weekdays.When he saw Shisi's dagger, he was already so frightened that his whole body went limp.

So the next fourteen's questioning went smoothly, and I quickly understood the ins and outs of the matter.

This person's surname is Zhang, the accountant of the Changshun Escort Bureau.It was a task assigned by the boss to come to Xiao's house to ask for Xiao Shishiniang to marry.As for his boss, there is no need to introduce his name.

"What about after I'm hired? What's the plan?" Fourteen asked.Since it's aimed at her, it's not that simple.

"First... first make the engagement, and confirm the marriage contract." The man felt that every word he said, every tiny movement of his throat would cause his neck to rub against the dagger, and the distance between the blade and his throat would be a little closer.

"With...with a marriage contract, the government will help facilitate the marriage."

Sure enough, Fourteen Hearts said: Sure enough, they are using the law to make a fuss.

I just don't know what means they plan to use to find the government.Is it money, or is it pressured by identity?Does the government of Huangliang County know who is standing behind the Changshun Escort?

As for Governor Meng, how much does he know?
"Which government are you looking for? The county magistrate of Huangliang, or the governor of Songzhou?"

"I... I don't know about that, I just... obey orders." The man was telling the truth, he was a little guy himself, how could it be his turn to take care of the plans of the higher-ups?
But when he heard Shisi ask this question, he was thinking: To get rid of you, a little bodyguard, is there still a need to make trouble with the governor?
"Go back and tell your master to let them let go of the accusation." Fourteen took back the dagger, "If I don't sue to the end, I will look down on them."

……

Huangliang Escort.

"Cousin, the gift for County Magistrate Liu has already been delivered." Zhang Sunxing reported, "Lao Zhang also went to Dawei Village, and I heard that Xiao Shishiniang also rushed back early in the morning."

"What about the dowry gift?" Changsun Yan asked.

"The dowry...the dowry can be brought back tonight." Zhang Sunxing replied cautiously, "If you bring back the dowry just after the engagement was made yesterday, I'm afraid to startle the snake. So I arranged someone to collect it tonight."

Changsun Yan held a volume of books in his hand, and leaned barefoot on the soft bed next to the window. When talking to Changsun Xing, he didn't look at him, but read a book.

He glanced at Changsun Xing briefly, and his meaning was very clear: You'd better bring me the betrothal gift smoothly.

"Cousin, don't worry, Xiao Shishiniang has never stayed at Xiao's house. It is very easy for our people to get back a few dowry gifts." Zhang Sunxing explained.

His explanation directly angered Zhang Sunyan: "What do you mean?"

"I said something wrong, cousin forgive me!" Zhang Sunxing immediately realized that Chang Sunyan was afraid of Xiao Shishiniang, but he didn't admit it, and he didn't want others to know that he was afraid of Xiao Shiniang.

He quickly embraced himself: "Cousin...Cousin, the fire almost killed me last time. I'm... I'm really worried about what tricks that woman will do again."

"Trash!" Changsun Yan scolded, "She's just a pariah, how can she make you so afraid?"

Looking at Changsun Yan's even more angry face, Changsun Xing secretly heaved a sigh of relief, as if he had turned around.

"Yes, my cousin taught me the lesson. I shouldn't build up other people's aspirations and destroy my own prestige." He continued, "This time, my cousin's personal planning will definitely make Xiao Shishiniang go without a fight. And that thing called pepper , when she becomes Lao Zhang's wife, she will be in our hands."

When Changsun Xing thought of chili peppers, he became jealous.God really cared for Xiao Shishiniang, and allowed her to grow such a rare thing. After only a few months of entering the market, it became popular in the capital of God, and the price was skyrocketed.

If that thing became his, it would be equivalent to holding a mountain of gold in his hands!

Changsun Yan came up with such a poisonous plan to let a servant marry Xiao Shishiniang, taking her pepper business second, and humiliating and torturing her is the main purpose.

But his eldest grandson is different. There is no benefit in torturing others, and you will not get any benefit from torturing others.He only valued the benefits he could get, and that thing called pepper was what he valued most.

Changsun Yan has always been proud of his status as an aristocrat, and he feels that talking about money will dirty his ears.It just so happened that he shouldn't be interested in such money-making things.When Xiao Shishiniang is dead, he must manage the chili business well. Given time, he may be able to make a fortune with it.

……

After returning from Dawei Village, Fourteen came to Mei's house.Seeing Mei Xingzhi, he told him the ins and outs of the matter.

"This matter is easy to handle. I'll go for a walk." After listening to Mei Xingzhi, he promised solemnly, "You have already established a female household, and you are not a virgin. Although they are your parents, they have no right to replace you. The marriage is the decision. Whoever accepts the dowry, let the family who hired him go to them to discuss it."

Fourteen came to him just in case.Although she established a female household, the blood relationship with Xiao Fu and his wife still exists.I was afraid that the Changshun Escort would collude with the government to make a fuss about it and drag her into it.

Talking to a smart person saves effort. As soon as she spoke seven points, Mei Xingzhi already understood ten points.From her limited words, she has already analyzed the relationship between her and the Xiao family, and she has spoken out the unfinished words for her.

"Then please trouble Master Mei."

"Miss Xiao, you don't have to be so polite with me." Mei Xingzhi said, "We are friends, and we should help each other."

"I am thanking you for the gift that Young Master Mei gave me." Fourteen-fingered Kang Simu said, "The person you sent is indeed a useful talent, and it is exactly what I need."

Kang Simu has the talent to be a Jinshi, the most important thing is that he is not a literati who only knows how to sing the wind and play the moon, but a man of action.He studies actuarial science, understands policy theory, and has an understanding of the law.

Fourteen has always felt that the skills of his subordinates are not bad, but there is some lack of culture.Now that Kang Simu has come, it happens that civil and military complement each other.

"So, thank you, Young Master Mei, for the gift."

"Miss Xiao is polite." Mei Xingzhi said, "Amu is not tolerated by the world. It is his blessing that Lady Xiao can not only take him in but also value him. And with Lady Xiao, there must be someone who can show his talent. It may be a turning point for the hit."

"Young Master Mei thinks highly of me." Fourteen smiled, "He is a person who can take the road of Qingyun, but he can only be an accountant who manages accounts when he comes to me. What is the turning point?"

Hearing what Fourteen said, Mei Xingzhi didn't say anything more.Smiling lightly, he skipped the topic.

But Shisi was thinking in his heart, did he hear something from the old monk who argued against Ku?Does Bianku know that Xiao Yan will become a king with a different surname dominating the western border and occupying half of the Dali dynasty in the future?
What Mei Xingzhi said just now is really too easy to make people think too much.
