Detective Di Renjie's legend of Wu Dynasty

Chapter 397 The Strange Jinniang
Di Renjie said: "Xue Qinglin was originally a prince who dominated one side, and Huang Wenyue, the former magistrate of Wuping County, even bowed to him and bowed his knees, which made him even more arrogant and arrogant.

I deliberately indulged his evil slaves to report back.

As for him, he didn't take the county government seriously, and of course he didn't take us fishermen seriously.

Therefore, I predict that when he hears about this, he will find it difficult to suppress his anger, and he will lead his thugs to demand someone.

Moreover, with his perverse personality, he would definitely smash open the Yamen regardless of the consequences.Sure enough, everything went as expected. "

Lin Yongzhong said with admiration: "This is how you can raise your sword and stand up."

Di Renjie said: "Yes, to deal with people like Xue Qinglin, you must not only have courage, but also have a strategy. Otherwise, not only will you not be able to kill his arrogance, but you will be trapped in a passive position."

Wang Mang and Li Yuanfang looked at each other, and they nodded in agreement.

Lin Yongzhong said sincerely: "Old man, Yongzhong really admires you, everything is under your control. I really can't imagine what kind of person you are."

Di Renjie smiled: "When the time comes, you will understand."

Lin Yongzhong nodded, hesitated for a moment, and said: "Old man, Yongzhong is very puzzled about something, and wants to ask the old man for advice."

Hearing this sentence, Di Renjie and Wang Mang looked at each other and laughed.

Wang Mang smiled and said: "Magistrate Lin, you want to ask, since you have caught Xue Qinglin's handle, why don't you take him down in one go, but let him go, don't you?"

Lin Yongzhong nodded: "Exactly."

Di Renjie smiled, and looked at Wang Mang: "Jing Yang, what do you think?"

Wang Mang said: "Based on today's events alone, it is impossible to defeat Xue Qinglin."

Lin Yongzhong was stunned: "But why?"

Wang Mang said: "Lord Lin, you are the county magistrate of the seventh rank, and if you want to participate in a fourth-rank marquis, the memorial must first reach the governor of the state, and then pass it up to Zhongshu's door. It will take nearly two months.

But Xue Qinglin is different, his memorials can be heard directly to the heavens, and as a thief, he will definitely strike first and report this matter first, and, I'm sure it's an understatement, admitting a mistake.

Therefore, before your memorial reached the cabinet, the emperor's edict had already been passed on to Wuping, the content was just admonishing, asking others not to be an example, and so on.

When the cabinet received your memorial, the emperor had already dealt with the matter, and the cabinet ministers would no longer report the matter to the emperor, so the memorial was kept, and the matter had to be let go. "

Lin Yongzhong thought about Wang Mang's words carefully, Mao Sai suddenly realized, nodded and said: "I have encountered similar things before, but the result was always nothing, so it is like this!"

Wang Mang said: "That's why, every year, the emperor personally appoints a few important cabinet ministers to appoint deposed envoys to go down to various states and counties to inspect the officials."

Lin Yongzhong looked at Wang Mang, and said strangely: "Brother Jingyang, how do you know these things?"

Di Renjie glanced at Wang Mang, and Wang Mang smiled: "It's just hearsay."

Lin Yongzhong nodded suspiciously.

At this time, Li Yuanfang said: "Magistrate Lin, this is why Mr. stopped you. Xue Qinglin's roots in the court are very deep, especially the relationship with Wu Sansi, the king of Liang. It is not the time to bring him down. .”

Lin Yongzhong nodded.

Wang Mang also sighed: "That's right, you can't be in a hurry if you want to bring down Xue Qinglin."

Di Renjie said: "Now, our goal is to kill Xue Qinglin's vigor. As long as we do this, we will be done. As for the others, we can only get behind Xu Tu."

Lin Yongzhong said bitterly: "It's just too cheap for this villain!"

Di Renjie, Wang Mang, and Li Yuanfang looked at each other and smiled.

Wang Mang stepped forward and patted Lin Yongzhong's shoulder: "Don't worry, the emperor will know."

Lin Yongzhong was taken aback: "Oh? Brother Jingyang, what do you mean..."

Wang Mang looked at Di Renjie and Li Yuanfang, and smiled: "Don't say it, don't say it."

……

In the back hall of Wuping County Yamen, Ruyan and Jinniang were sitting on the couch and talking, when Di Renjie, Wang Mang and others walked in, Jinniang stood up quickly, and Yingying knelt down: "My little girl Jinniang thanked the county magistrate and Mr. Di for saving my life." Big favor!"

Di Renjie said: "Get up, get up. Jinniang, the murderer who killed your father, the evil slave of the Hou Mansion, Du Er, has been beheaded by Mr. Lin. Now you can rest assured."

Tears rolled down from Jinniang's eyes, and she sobbed softly.

Di Renjie sighed and said, "Son, what are your plans for the future?"

Jinniang shook her head: "I don't know. Dad is dead, I'm the only one left, I, I..."

Ruyan hurriedly said: "Uncle, Jinniang and I recognized our sister just now, I think we should let her stay at our house first."

Wang Mang was taken aback when he heard this, and looked at Jinniang in puzzlement.

Jinniang avoided Wang Mang's gaze.

At this time, Di Renjie looked at Lin Yongzhong with a questioning look, and Lin Yongzhong said: "Old man, this matter started from Jinniang. From my point of view, I'm afraid Xue Qinglin will not give up so easily. It's harder for us to guard against.

As Miss Yan said, it is an expedient policy. Let Jinniang live in your house first, and then become the District Office after the situation subsides. "

Di Renjie nodded: "If that's the case, let's do it this way, I just don't know what Jinniang wants?"

Jinniang quickly knelt down: "I am willing."

Ruyan helped her up: "Okay, okay, don't just kneel, get up quickly."

Watching this scene, Wang Mang's eyes moved slightly, but he didn't speak.

Di Renjie smiled and said, "Okay, since I took Ruyan in, the family has become more and more prosperous!"

Everyone laughed.

……

Wuping County, in Zhuanzhu Lane.

Wang Mang's residence is a courtyard with three entrances.

And the opposite door is Di Renjie's mansion.

At nightfall, Wang Mang's mansion was completely silent.

The first study in the courtyard was lit with lights on, Wang Mang leaned over his desk to write quickly, the brush was quickly scratching on the paper, making a soft rustling sound.

After a long time, he put away the large sum of money, heaved a long sigh of relief, and raised his head.

At this time, when the door rang, Laifu walked in quickly: "Master, did you call me?"

Wang Mang nodded, put down his pen, handed the letter into Laifu's hands, and said, "Send the letter to Mr. Wen Kaiwen, governor of Jiangzhou."

Laifu nodded: "Yes."

As he spoke, he put the letter into his arms and walked out the door quickly.

Wang Mang stood up, moved his sore wrist, and slowly paced around the room.

Suddenly, there was a knock at the door, and Xiaomei walked in with tea: "Senior brother!"

Wang Mang raised his head and smiled: "It's Xiaomei, why did you bring the tea yourself?"
