Chapter 24 [Secret Discussion]

Old Mr. Tan collected the paper and sat down, took a sip of the tea next to him, and said leisurely: "If you want to prove Mr. Chen Yin's innocence, you must prove that Wang Shizhen made up the crimes indiscriminately, and Mr. Chen Yin was wronged. Words are the evidence of Wang Shizhen's lust for profit and disregard of the law. As long as I hand over these thousand words to the Metropolitan Procuratorate and turn them to Dali Temple for review, Wang Shizhen's despicable methods can be verified, and Mr. Chen Yin can walk out of the prison in a dignified manner. , wash clean."

Xiao Suzhen frowned and said: "But it said that Wang... Mr. Wang enriched his own pockets and colluded with big businessmen. I have never heard of this. Although Mr. Wang wronged my father, he was an honest official in the past. This... this is a bit inappropriate!"

A trace of displeasure flashed across Mr. Tan's face, but soon he said helplessly: "As the Governor of Hangzhou, Wang Shizhen did such things in a very secretive manner, and I am heartbroken."

Xue Poye said leisurely: "Teacher, your thousand-character words are the words of a family. I'm afraid it won't be of much use if you hand them over to Dali Temple!"

Old Mr. Tan took a look at Xue Poye, and there was an expression of admiration in his eyes. He nodded and said, "Poye is right. If you want to convict a high-ranking official for writing thousands of words, that is no doubt a dream." Looking at Xiao Suzhen, he looked serious Said: "Niece Suzhen, if you want to save your father, you need to make this thousand-character statement into real evidence."

Xiao Suzhen is so smart, she immediately understood the meaning: "The Uncle Shi wants me to sign and seal it?"

Mr. Tan laughed and said: "Suzhen is smart, I am very comforted!" He stroked his beard and said, "If you want to save Mr. Chen Yin, your signature and seal are naturally indispensable, but you are Mr. Chen Yin's family member after all, so you can write the letter alone. I'm afraid that the strength is not enough, if you can gather many talented people to write a letter, it will be ample evidence." Lower your voice: "Your Majesty respects scholars the most. If you say what a scholar says, your Majesty will have to think about it."

Xue Poye vaguely understood in his heart that this old boy wanted to use the hand of a scholar to bring down Wang Shizhen, but he didn't know what suspicion there was between the two.

Xiao Suzhen hesitated for a moment, and said slowly: "Uncle Shi, Suzhen's plan to save my father is only a personal matter, and has nothing to do with many talented people, why should they be involved."

Mr. Tan shook his head and said: "Niece Suzhen, you don't understand this. Although Mr. Dai Chenyin is just a family matter to you, it is a matter to all scholars in the eyes of the world. What's more, there are no such scholars. If Wang Shizhen does not subdue the law, Mr. Chen Yin's great injustice will be hard to avenge!"

Although Xiao Suzhen is talented and intelligent, she is just a girl after all, and she only wants to save her father from prison. Hearing what Mr. Tan said, she was confused, and hurriedly said: "Uncle Shi, Suzhen is a woman after all, is it Do you want to take a thousand-character statement and ask them to sign one by one?"

Mr. Tan saw Xiao Suzhen let go, and said with a smile: "Silly boy, how can this kind of thing be so difficult." Pulling Xue Poye over, he laughed and said, "Of course your elder brother can help you with this matter?"

Xiao Suzhen was stunned, Xue Poye was even more puzzled, not knowing what the old boy was going to do, and said angrily: "Teacher, I have no strength to restrain a chicken, I don't know astronomy, I don't know geography, even the most common "" I don’t understand the Four Books and Five Classics, how can I help? Teacher, don’t let the students down.”

Xiao Suzhen nodded unexpectedly, seeming to agree with Xue Poye's words, this foolish guy seems to be useless, how can he help.

Mr. Tan patted Xue Poye, and said calmly: "Poye, don't underestimate yourself. After all, you are my student. If you say you are useless all the time, aren't you calling me a mediocre teacher and incompetent?"

Xue Poye laughed and said with a pun, "The teacher is very clever, and the students admire him so much, how dare he scold him!"

Mr. Tan laughed twice, and said to Xiao Suzhen: "Niece Suzhen, my student has just opened a restaurant, and it will open in two days. I will immediately issue a notice that the talented lady Xiao will have a banquet for Jiangnan literati students in the future. It will be in Lanyuexuan, and then these literati and students will naturally gather in Lanyuexuan, and you can invite everyone to sign the letter together!"

Xue Poye was startled, and lost his voice: "Old Tan, how do you know that I opened a restaurant?"

He lost his tongue and called "teacher" directly "Old Tan"!

Old Mr. Tan smiled darkly, took out a piece of paper from his sleeve, and said leisurely: "How do you know? Your things are scattered around, and there are very few people who don't know."

Xue Poye took a closer look, and it turned out to be the exclusive leaflet of Lanyuexuan, breaking out in a cold sweat. Damn it, it seems that this leaflet is really useful, and even Zuodu Yushi, the dignified procuratorate, got a copy.

Mr. Tan shook the leaflet, and said with a smile: "The ingenuity is unique. It seems that my student is really not an ordinary person. I can come up with such ideas. As a teacher, I have some admiration for you. I see You are scattered around, but you didn't see me, haha...!"

Xiao Suzhen also looked at the leaflet, and saw a rather enchanting and beautiful woman half exposed, coquettish and charming, she immediately blushed with embarrassment, and looked extremely disgusted, and when she saw Xue Poye by her side, she even looked out. Moving away, it is natural to have great contempt and disdain for Xue Poye's character.

Xue Poye lost face in front of the beauty, and felt a little embarrassed. He quickly coughed twice, and even expressed his gratitude: "The teacher is too humble. The students didn't learn these things from you. The teacher taught me to learn this painting, but he took great pains. Even Take me there...hehe, it's all thanks to the teacher."

As soon as he said this, he immediately dragged Mr. Tan into the water, as if the painter of this enchanting beauty was trained by Mr. Tan, and Mr. Tan had already painted it.

Mr. Tan blew his beard angrily.

When Xiao Suzhen heard this, she felt a little uneasy, there were only three people in this room, and there were two perverts, one old and one young, but she had to be careful, unconsciously, her arms crossed her chest, blocking the fullness.

Mr. Tan coughed dryly, and said: "Poye, your younger sister is going to your restaurant to do business, you should take good care of her."

Xue Poye has already weighed in his heart that if Xiao Suzhen gathers talented scholars and scholars to sign a letter in Lanyuexuan, the sensational effect will be extraordinary, and it may be more effective than the [-]-point leaflets he carefully prepared. To a certain extent, It is really a great help to the operation of the restaurant.

However, there is a big disadvantage. This signing party of a thousand words is a political matter. I am afraid that it is inappropriate to host this political matter in a small restaurant. Moreover, the goal of this party is directly aimed at Wang Shizhen, who is held in a small restaurant in Hangzhou City. The political gathering to impeach the governor of Hangzhou is really crazy.

After the thousands of words are submitted, if Wang Shizhen does not fall, then his good days will come to an end.

Xue Poye was weighing the pros and cons, and Xiao Suzhen said softly, "Senior Brother, take care of it!"

Xue Poye was taken aback for a moment, "Damn it, beauties say this, it's really hard to refuse, so I had to bite the bullet and smiled: "Young lady, you are welcome, we are a family, we should help each other when we need something." Looking at Mr. Tan, Touching his nose, he laughed and said, "Teacher, it's just that this party is too big. I'm afraid the students don't have much money. If they can't handle it by then, the situation will be ruined. Why don't you lend me 8000 taels first?" The students will use it first, so that the party can go on smoothly."

Old Mr. Tan's eyelids twitched, his flesh twitched, and he scolded this brat with a dark heart in his heart. He said that he was ten thousand, and he thought I was the owner of a bank?Coughing twice, he stroked his beard and said, "Poye, I came here in a hurry this time as a teacher, and I didn't bring much money with me. It's already a lot to spend 500 taels of silver for this party, so how can I spend 8000 taels of silver. In this way, you first Take it for the teacher, and the reward will be doubled after the teacher returns to Beijing."

Xue Poye smiled but didn't laugh, shit, don't talk about it if you don't have money, and still respectfully said: "Teacher, you have a high position, wave your hand, move your fingers, and someone will give you money. Students usually follow the rules, Diligent and conscientious, not many friends, really helpless, so I begged the teacher for money, and asked the teacher to help the students!" Glancing at Xiao Suzhen, who was quiet on the side, he said with a smile: "In order to save Mr. Chen Yin, the teacher will never Are you unwilling to take out these small money? You will not let me and Shimei go around raising money in disgrace?"

The corner of Mr. Tan's mouth twitched, his face extremely embarrassed, and he finally called out: "Zhao Long!"

A guard came in immediately and said respectfully, "What is your order?"

Mr. Tan said lightly: "I don't care what method you use, before tonight, send 800 taels of silver to Lanyuexuan!"

The order was short and the voice was full of majesty, which was quite different from Xue Poye and Xiao Suzhen's tone of voice.

Zhao Long didn't say much, bowed and said: "Yes!" and retreated.

Xue Poye's sharp eyes saw that Zhao Long wiped his forehead with his sleeve the moment he left the house, and he must have been startled into a cold sweat by the order——
