Chapter 638

After listening to Lan Jinyu's suggestion, the father and son of the Tang family looked at each other, thinking that it was really terrible for this guy to bring this matter to the emperor.

Tang Zhaolin hesitated and said: "Is this possible? If you want to sue the imperial court, it must be that the local officials have neglected their duties and collaborated with the criminals. We have this reason, but we haven't even gone to Shunping Mansion to sue!"

Lan Jinyu said: "It's okay, someone from the Lan family has already gone to the government to sue, but Wang Wenmiao refused to accept the case, saying that it is an internal matter of our family and let us handle it ourselves."

Tang Zhaolin still hesitated, and said: "Although this is the case, it is still unreliable to sue the imperial court. You must know that the emperor may not be fair. If the money in Lan Jinfang's hand is really found out by him, do you think it can be returned to us in full? "

"This... Even if you return a part of it, it's better than nothing. Otherwise, if you rely on the power of the Tang family to repay so many debts like your father-in-law's family, I'm afraid the Tang family won't be able to get over it in 30 years, right?"

Tang Zhao glanced at Lan Jinyu, then turned to Tang Zhaolin and said, "Father, Jinyu is right, it's better to get some back than nothing!"

Tang Zhaolin rubbed his face and said: "But I'm really worried, the Lan Tang family is combined with the money from the Lan Jin Fangkeng, it's really too much, the emperor knows that we have such a big financial resources, I'm afraid we will have a hard time in the future Our two families have not been in the capital for so many years, and we are afraid of being targeted by the royal family and slaughtered us as fat pigs, but now we are going into the emperor's eyes, isn't it a bit silly?"

Lan Jinyu said: "Father-in-law's words are wrong. Why do we have to say the real amount of silver? We can report less. As long as we find out part of it, the rest will naturally be found."

Tang Zhaolin looked at Tang Zhao, turned around and said, "Well, since you want to report less, you might as well not report to our Tang family. Jinyu, you sue in the name of the Lan family, and our Tang family will fully support you." .”

Lan Jinyu was a little skeptical, and said: "Father-in-law, big brother, don't you still have compassion for Lan Jinfang? Just let me take the lead, this matter is not big enough!"

Tang Zhaolin said angrily: "I have a heart of pity. The Tang family is almost ruined by them. Why do you have pity! It's just that I'm worried about something bigger. How about it? I'll let Zhao'er go with you, let Let him talk to his adoptive father, Su Yulong, and help you talk at critical times, what do you think?"

Lan Jinyu was worrying that she had no relationships in the capital, so she let go after hearing what he said, and said, "Okay, then do as father-in-law said."

So the next day, Lan Jinyu went to the Tang residence to make an appointment with Tang Zhao, and the two hurried to the capital to file a complaint.

And it is not quiet here in Ranglan City. Lan Tang's people go to the place where Lan Jinfang lives in batches and batches to make trouble. Every day, the quarrel is in full swing, and Lan Jinfang and Lan Jinxiang are blocked in the courtyard and dare not come out. , so that everyone in Lanancheng knew that the former patriarch of the Lan family was not a good person. He cheated the family money and was scolded so much that he dared not go out.And the creditors of the Tang family also changed their targets, instead of going to the Tang family to ask for money, they also went to block Lan Jinfang with the Lan family, even more emotional than the Lan family, and the quarrel was more fierce and fierce, and the quarrel was in full swing. The reputation of Lan Jinfang was so bad that it couldn't be worse.

With Su Yulong's help, Lan Jinyu actually handed over the pleading paper to the emperor. The pleading said that Lan Jinfang lied to the Lan family for not returning the money, and with "magic" around him, neither the Lan family nor the government could do anything about him , ask the emperor to preside over justice.

Originally, the emperor didn't care about such things, but seeing that the silver taels involved in the case actually had 200 million taels of silver, and what kind of "magic" was done, it should be taken seriously, so he appointed Su Yulong as an imperial envoy to Ranglan City Check the case.

Since things went smoothly, it only took over a month for Lan Jinyu and Tang Zhaolian to bring them back. During this month, the yard where Lan Jinfang lived had already been picked up by debtors several times. When they came back, they would take Lan Jinfang and Xuan'er to move from the space to other places at this time, but no matter how they moved, they would not leave Ranglan City, and these creditors would make endless troubles.

On the day when the imperial envoy entered the city, the entire Ranglan City was in a commotion, knowing that the matter of the Lantang family was finally going to come to an end.Wang Wenmiao also took everyone outside the city gate in person, and respectfully invited Su Yulong into the city.

After a day's rest, Su Yulong sent someone to Lan Jinfang's residence to "arrest him and bring him to justice."

Upon hearing the news, everyone in the Lan family who had taken money from Lan Jinfang, as well as anyone who had lent money to the Tang family, came to the scene automatically without being summoned by the government, and waited for the news at the gate of the yamen, for fear that the money would come out. own share.

When Su Yulong saw this, he simply went to a public trial and asked all relevant people to hear the trial at the entrance of the lobby.

On the day of the official trial, the yamen of Shunping Mansion was crowded with people, almost half of the people in the city came here to watch the excitement, making the surrounding of the yamen blocked. It was the most sensational trial in the history of Ranglan City.

In the courtroom, Su Yulong, who was an imperial envoy, sat in the middle, and Wang Wenmiao, the prefect of Shunping, was jurying beside him.As for the case...the two have never communicated with each other. Su Yulong has lived in Tang Zhao's house since he arrived in Ranglan City. Wang Wenmiao has no chance to talk to him at all, so it is also in the mood for Wang Wenmiao to sit sideways at this time. Uneasy, I don't know if this lawsuit from the Lan family will make me suffer.

Su Yulong sat under the seat, glanced at Wang Wenmiao, and said, "Master Wang, it seems that everything is almost ready, let's start."

"Yes, Mr. Imperial Envoy."

Wang Wenmiao nodded and bowed in agreement, then turned to the yamen servant and said, "Go, bring the plaintiff and the defendant to the court."

The yamen servant agreed to go out, and not long after, he came in with Lan Jinfang, Lan Jinfang, Platycodon grandiflora, and several direct descendants of the Lan family.

Everyone came to the hall to salute Su Yulong and Wang Wenmiao.

Although Ms. Su had a relationship with Jikyo back then, Su Yulong had never seen Jikyo. Seeing that she was still holding Xuan'er in her arms, Su Yulong asked, "Why is there a woman with a child in her arms?"

Wang Wenmiao said: "My lord, this woman is also one of the defendants. She and the defendant Lan Jinfang are husband and wife. Since the plaintiff Lan Jinyu believed that she was also involved in the fraud, she was also sued."

Su Yulong said: "Oh, since that's the case, let's try it together. It's just that it's inconvenient to take the child with you. Give the woman a seat and let her sit and wait. Come back and talk when necessary. Stand up."

It's not surprising that he asked everyone to stand up. After all, the Lan family has such a face, but they didn't understand why they asked Kikyo to sit aside and wait, but seeing that Kikyo was really struggling to hold Xuan'er, they didn't object.
