Rebirth of the Tang Dynasty's strongest consort

Chapter 400 Catching a Fox and Catching a Fish
After discovering Mei Zhusheng's black account hidden in the fish pond, the three of them ignored the joy and cooperated with each other to briefly review the account book.

Xie Yaohuan frowned slightly, and after doing the mental calculation, she lightly parted her lips, "After a rough calculation, in the past few years, plums and bamboos have been frightened of tax deductions, cloth, special products, etc., and sold a huge amount of 10 taels!"

"No wonder it was said that the prefect was cleared for three years, and one hundred thousand taels of silver." Fang Yi'ai's starry eyes shone with a chill, and said: "I didn't expect that just one county would get them 10 taels of silver within a few years!"

Qin Jingniang said angrily: "The 10 taels of silver are the blood and sweat of the people in Meiwu County. No wonder the people's livelihood in the county is in decline, but it turns out that it is the ghost of Mei Zhusheng and Wang Tong!"

Xie Yaohuan sorted out the account books, picked up a letter, opened it, and found that it was the letterhead that Mei Zhusheng had been dealing with merchants from Huguang in recent years.

"The witnesses and material evidence are all there, Fang Lang, what do you plan to do?" Although Xie Yaohuan said that she was as calm as still water, she already hated Mei and Wang who were searching for people's fat and people's anointing, and she couldn't think about it when she was angry. Quietly drew closer.

Fang Yiai and Qin Jingniang looked at each other, then turned to look at Xie Yaohuan, and said with a smirk, "What did you call me, lady?"

Xie Yaohuan was startled for a moment, then looked at Qin Jingniang, seeing her younger sister looking at her with a smile on her face, her cheeks immediately turned red like a sunset glow.

"I'll go. Please calculate the exact amount." Xie Yaohuan quickly put away the black account, with a red cloud on her face, and hid in the study in a panic, secretly ashamed.

Turning her head to look at Qin Jingniang, fearing that this "hezudao regular wife" would be jealous, Fang Yiai hurriedly said: "My lady, I'm going to meet that old fox, I'm going to treat the students well tonight."

After finishing speaking, Fang Yiai, who was overjoyed and ashamed, took Qin Jingniang in her arms, and after a long and tender goodbye, she walked out of the main hall with a smile on her face.

Qin Jingniang's breathing was a little messy, and seeing Fang Yiai's leaving back, she said with joy and anger, "It's always so frivolous, I'm afraid I'll have to add a bedding tonight."

Walking out of the bedroom, just as Fang Yiai was about to leave the inner office, she faintly heard footsteps on the road ahead, and when the visitor turned around the corridor, Mei Zhusheng, who seemed to be smiling but not a smile, immediately walked in front of Fang Yiai.

"The county magistrate made it easy for students to find, why didn't you go to the granary?" Mei Zhusheng looked sideways at the bedroom for a few times, and saw that the door lock was damaged, but the smile on his face became more intense.

Fang Yiai stood with his hands behind his back, thinking to himself, "What an old fox, he found out so quickly that the county is no longer in the sedan chair!"

"I was delayed by some trivial matters just now. Master Mei has something to do with this county?" Fang Yiai responded with a smile, and the two looked at each other, and the smile grew stronger.

Mei Zhusheng had long guessed that Fang Yiai would search his room, and now seeing that the copper lock was indeed damaged, the old fox smiled and sneered, "Could it be that there are thieves in the inner yamen? I think the county yamen is a place for gentlemen, how can they get out?" The gentleman on Liangshang who was stolen by the mouse and the dog?"

During the conversation, Mei Zhusheng looked Fang Yiai up and down with dark eyes, and the meaning behind it was self-evident.

"If the heart is right, it is evil, and if the heart is evil, it is evil." Fang Yiai, who was immersed in the joy of victory, once again committed the old problem of "Wen Chaogong".

Mei Zhusheng knew only a little about it, and asked with a frown, "What does the county lord mean by this?"

"The water in the fish pond is quite muddy, so take the time to change it some other day." Fang Yiai's gentle words made the old Mei Zhusheng terrified. Although he reacted quickly, there was still a flash of panic in his eyes.

After capturing all the changes in Mei Zhusheng's expression, Fang Yiai waved her sleeves and said with a smile, "Let's go, Master Mei, accompany this county to the granary."

After finishing speaking, Fang Yiai strode forward, letting Mei Zhusheng have doubts in her heart, but she didn't dare to find out the tricks in the fish pond in broad daylight.

When the two came to the granary, they immediately saw Wang Tong standing in front of the gate of the granary, holding a waist knife, and immediately slashing the knife.

Holding a waist knife in his hand, Wang Tong confronted Fan Jin and the other arresters at a distance, with a ferocious expression on his face, as if he was about to draw his knife to hurt someone again in the next moment.

Fan Jin is a scholar, although the city is very deep, but when he meets a stunned young man like Wang Tong, he also agrees with the saying that a scholar meets a soldier without reason.

"Master Fan!" Fang Yiai walked through the crowd of onlookers and shouted to Fan Jin deliberately, the purpose of which was naturally to intimidate Wang Tong, whose bruises on his face hadn't faded.

Seeing Fang Yiai's arrival, Fan Jin and the fourteen police officers and Zaoli handed over together, "Master of the County."

Fan Jin leaned close to Fang Yi'ai's ear, glanced at Mei Zhusheng who was standing aside, and whispered: "Master, Wang Tong won't let us in."

"It's okay, I'll meet him right now in this county." Fang Yiai chuckled lightly, strode forward with her hem up, and walked straight towards Wang Tong who was standing on the steps of the granary door.

At the last moment, Wang Tong, who was still slashing his sword immediately, with a look of whoever comes up and whoever dies, when he saw Fang Yiai, he immediately became an eggplant beaten by Shuang. In terms of martial arts, he has already learned the crazy boxing skills of this baby county magistrate. , the thesis is even worse. Seeing his old enemy moving forward at this moment, Wang Tong couldn't help but look at Mei Zhusheng.

Mei Zhusheng, who didn't know that the black account had been seen, nodded to Wang Tongyao, signaling him not to panic, still holding the chicken feather order arrow given by the prefect of Caozhou in his heart, until now when the catastrophe was imminent, he still despised the young man Not a big boss officer.

After climbing up the steps and standing beside Wang Tong, Fang Yiai said with a hypocritical face: "Wang Dutou, what are you doing?"

"Your Majesty, I have obeyed the order of the magistrate, and today I will send the taxes and grains to Caozhou."

In the middle of Wang's conversation, he suddenly felt his cheeks heat up. Before he could react, he was unsteady and rolled and crawled, and fell down the steps.

After slapping Wang Tong to the ground, Fang Yiai straightened her crooked official hat, and waved to Fan Jin and the others: "What are you waiting for, quickly open the warehouse to release food!"

A group of Zaoli and the policemen looked at Wang Tong who fell to the ground and howled, and murmured: "What? The county lord slapped Wang Tong to the ground? The county lord still has this ability?"

Fan Jin's eyes flashed with joy, and he thought to himself, "Could it be that the magistrate has caught Mei and Wang, why is he so confident?"

"How is this baby so arrogant! Doesn't he know that Wang Tong is the brother-in-law of the magistrate of Caozhou?" Mei Zhusheng lowered his head in thought, his face had already changed from calm to livid, "He just talked about the water in the fish pond in Neiya for no reason. , Could it be that he discovered something? How did he know? Could it be that this doll knows how to do things like a godsend?"

Looking at Fang Yiai standing on the steps, the usual taciturn people burst into applause.

"The county lord is going to open a warehouse to release food! We can have enough food now!"

"The county respects and loves the people like a son, and he is indeed a scholar!"

"Wang Tong should have been beaten a long time ago! Usually he is the only one who beats people up, but today it is a good thing, he was slapped and crackled by the head master, and he was so pissed off!"

Fang Yiai stared at the stunned policeman and Zaoli, gave a wry smile, and said loudly, "Hurry up and open the warehouse to release the grain!"

With an order, everyone will react now, one by one holding a measuring bucket and pushing a cart into the procuratorate, the four policemen and Fan Jin walking in the back, just about to enter the granary, but they are carried away by Fang Yiai. hand stopped.

"Master Fan, later you will lead people to distribute food in the villages and towns under your jurisdiction. Remember not to ask for more food, but it must be evenly distributed. You can arrange it yourself."

Hearing Fang Yiai's words, Fan Jin nodded slightly, and was about to respond, but his thoughts were disrupted by Mei Zhusheng who was striding forward.

"The magistrate forgot yesterday's order from the magistrate? Besides, the students are the masters of Qiangu in this county, so you don't need a deputy to deliver the food, right?" Mei Zhusheng was unwilling, and tried to use the magistrate of Caozhou to suppress his love. one head.

When Fan Jin heard Mei Zhusheng's words, his joyful expression suddenly darkened, and he subconsciously took a step back. How can the inferiority complex that has been deeply rooted in his bone marrow for 50 years be worn away in ten and a half months?
"Oh, the county forgot." Fang Yiai scratched her head and smiled wryly, then looked at Fan Jin and continued, "Fan Jin, from today onwards you will be Master Qiangu of Meiwu County."

"No! It's the number one teacher in Meiwu County!" After finishing speaking, before Mei Zhusheng and Fan Jin came to their senses, Fang Yiai then said to the four arresters standing below: "Come on, bring Mei Zhusheng and Fan Jin together." Wang Tong is escorted back to the county government office, and he will come to the court for interrogation after the county's food distribution is finished!"
