Daily life of slaying demons in the government

Chapter 237 You Have a Wall, I Have a Ladder

Yang Qian didn't expect that Prince Yue would actually meet him directly at this time, and he should have been waiting for him outside the government office long ago.

Yang Qian felt that the meal was unpalatable and he had no appetite at all. His mind was filled with Prince Yue's every move and the warnings and inducements.

This meeting can be regarded as Yue Wang’s last attempt to “persuade with good words”. After this, there will probably be no room for maneuver.

Of course, in Yue Wang's eyes, this was giving Yang Qian the last chance to choose, and Yue Wang valued talent.

But in Yang Qian's eyes, he and Prince Yue no longer had anything to talk about.

Firstly, Prince Yue colluded with the evil monks, which had already crossed Yang Qian's bottom line, so how could he go along with them? Secondly, the life-and-death battle in the dungeon, if it hadn't been for Xu Xiushan's intervention, Yang Qian's life would have been in danger. After all the fighting, what was the point of standing on the side? Isn't it ridiculous?

"I didn't expect that Yue Wang is so old, and looks almost the same age as me. Tsk, longevity. I think this is what Yue Wang wants, right?"

A man in his seventies would not look haggard, but he would certainly look very old. However, Yue Wang looked like he was in his early thirties at most, which was totally abnormal.

Combined with the fact that Prince Yue had colluded with evil cultivators, Yang Qian was certain that Prince Yue had also used evil methods and even participated in evil practices.

However, Yang Qian did not feel any clear fluctuations of magic power from Yue Wang. Instead, he felt an absurdly strong blood and qi reaction, just like a warrior who had practiced martial arts for many years and had unfathomable strength?
However, Yang Qian still had a doubt.

It stands to reason that Prince Yue is very clear about his current situation. Even if he has captured Bai Yuan, and feels that he cannot investigate for the time being, he can also feel from the increased efforts of the government that the intention of the imperial court to eradicate him is clear, right?
Shouldn't this situation be handled more low-key, or all means be kept secret?

Why did you come here with such fanfare and threaten and bribe Yang Qian in person?
Why is this happening? Where does the confidence come from?
Back at the Patrol Office, Yang Qian felt like he had missed something, but couldn't remember what it was. He could only pay attention for now and take things one step at a time.

In the afternoon, Yang Qian called back all five people from the Patrol Case Division and gathered them in his office to make subsequent arrangements.

"Things have reached a critical point. Bai Yuan was taken away by the military yamen, which basically cut off his line of inquiry, and even cut off all the clues within the yamen. No matter whether Huang Yuan or Chen Yao confesses any case involving people within the yamen, it will all end with Bai Yuan.

Therefore, the focus must be withdrawn from the interior of the government office and replaced by a breakthrough from the outside.

Zhao Chen, put the things in your hands in a while, and then work with Ma Dayuan and the others, they happen to be short of people."

Although Zhao Chen was in a low mood, he knew that now was not the time to be too stubborn. Bai Yuan had gone to the military office, and no one could do anything to him for the time being. It was not a good idea to just sit there and waste time.

As for how to "break through from the outside", this made Ma Dayuan's eyes light up. After all, he has always been the one handling external cases.

Seeing Yang Qian looking over, Ma Dayuan was well prepared, so he quickly stood up and said, "My Lord, everyone, the situation at Hongyunfa Horse and Carriage Company is very stable now. I have found many informants and they are all very stable. It is not as turbulent as the government office. So for the time being, I should not have been noticed by the other party.

In addition, according to the instructions of the adults, I used the fact that Fu Jie was poaching the Wu family's girlfriend to sow discord between Wu Youliang and Fu Jie's son Fu Wenyi. So far, it has been very effective.

After Fu Wenyi was injured, he was recuperating at home, but Wu Youliang was still relentless and had Fu Wenyi's lover in the brothel. He spread the word that Fu Wenyi was a petty man who was looked down upon even by the singing girls in the brothel. Fu Wenyi, who was already seriously injured, was so angry that he vomited blood.

Then I found one of Fu Wenyi's usual bad friends as an informant to visit him. After some provocative words, hey, this young man immediately fell into the trap and started to talk about many of Wu Youliang's scandals. There are too many scandals, so I won't go into them one by one. If you have time, you can go and read the files I wrote. "

After a pause, Ma Dayuan continued: "I picked out two things. The first is that Wu Youliang used Yin cream, which is a serious crime. The second is that Wu Youliang had repeatedly gone to the homes of his "friends" to tease their families.

The first thing his subordinates did was to spread the news to test Wu Youliang's reaction. After all, no one could be arrested if the matter was proven true. After hearing this, Wu Youliang became cautious and decided to deal with the aftermath first so he wouldn't have to worry about it. Instead, it would arouse his anger.

My subordinates specifically verified the second thing, and after they let it out, most of them responded with an expression of "You just knew about this?" In the playboy circle of Jizhou Prefecture, Wu Youliang's preference for other people's backyards was actually no secret at all.

Some businessmen even deliberately catered to Wu Youliang and satisfied his quirks in order to get benefits from the Wu family.

Everyone knew it before, but now even people who shouldn’t know know it, so Wu Youliang’s reputation is completely ruined.

I heard that Wu Youliang was punished by his family, his buttocks were bruised, and he walked with a limp the next day, and his face was blue. "

Hearing this, Yang Qian started laughing.

"This is definitely a great humiliation in the eyes of Mr. Wu. He will definitely take revenge, and he won't wait until the next day, right?"

Ma Dayuan nodded quickly and said, "Your Excellency is right! On the third day after Wu Youliang was punished by his family, he gathered a large group of killers from the dark alleys, broke through the back door of the Fu family at night, and went straight to Fu Wenyi's courtyard. They broke Fu Wenyi's legs and cut one side of his face."

It is said that Fu Wenyi is now disabled. Even if his legs grow back, he will still be a cripple. The scar on his face cannot be removed.

"Hey, this Mr. Wu has a very bad temper. He is sure that the Fu family dare not do anything to him, right?"

"Yes, sir. Although Wu Youliang was beaten again after returning, he also spread the word that the Fu family is the dog raised by the Wu family. They can beat or kill them at will. He told Fu Wenyi to roll away with his tail between his legs when he sees him next time, otherwise he will break his legs every time he sees him!

Hehe, it’s very fierce.”

"The younger generation is making a fuss, what's going on up there? Has Fu Jie been affected?"

"Yes. Just yesterday, Fu Jie was transferred to Hongyun Carriage and Horse Shop as the shopkeeper and no longer serves as the chief steward of the Wu family."

Yang Qian's smile deepened when he heard this.

That's right. We are not a family of saints, so how can we have so much "trust" and "sharing weal and woe" when doing business?
Although children's fighting is not acceptable, if it gets out of hand, you have to consider the adults' thoughts, especially when there is a difference in status between the two families and they are not clean with each other.

"Have you started to contact Fu Jie?"

"Not yet. But Fu Wenyi has been a little emotional since he found out he was useless, so I think we can have further contact."
