In Xu Mansion, study, sandalwood rose up.

A big and thick hero in the world was invited in and saluted Xu Jie, who was sitting in the head, looked very respectfully.

"Shao Daxia, please sit down!" Xu Jie's face was like spring breeze, and he raised his hand to point at an empty chair and said gently.

Unlike most officials who look down on each other, Xu Jie has always been trying to win over the lower class and even make friends directly. From the earlier Taoist priest Lan Daoxing to the scammer Wang Jin, and today's scammer Shao Fang, all

Have a very close relationship.

Shao Fang was wearing a short-sleeved pair of thick arms, and her legs were wrapped in cloth strips and socks. This outfit was undoubtedly convenient for movement.

Unlike the knight with a bearded face, the whole face looks very clean, and there is a deep scar on his forehead pointing straight to his right eye, making the whole face look scary.

But there is no real knight in this world. It’s just because of his own strength and some official relationship, he just doesn’t speak any words to some gangsters.

Shao Fang was arrogant outside, but facing Xu Jie, who had once had power, said meekly like a tamed beast: "In front of the cabinet master, the grass people dare not be the name of a hero!"

"Xia Shao, today I came to you, but there is actually something you have to do!" Xu Jie took a sip of tea and told the truth.

Shao Fang has received many protections from the Xu family over the years, and he does not want to let go of the rich rewards behind this matter. He immediately agreed and said: "Please give me instructions, and the people will do whatever they want to go through fire and water!"

Xu Jie nodded with satisfaction, then asked Mr. Butler to leave, and then whispered with Shao Fang.

During the period when he returned to Songjiang Prefecture, he also kept an eye on the situation of the court and maintained close contact with many people in the capital, so he learned about the various changes in the court.

The birth of the emperor's legitimate son in May undoubtedly caused a devastating blow to the officials who supported the eldest son of Zhu Yijun. After he left the court, Lin Qinran had some concerns about eliminating dissidents, but now he gave Lin Qinran the most.

A good excuse.

Let me ask you, who dares to say that Lin Shiran did something wrong to clear the way for the emperor's legitimate son? This move is quite similar to Cao Cao, who used the emperor to command princes, and Lin Shiran can already fight against the common people under the banner of justice.

It is precisely because of this that people with Zhang Shouzhi, the Minister of Works, and others as the core were successively cleaned by Lin Yanran, and the court today has long been the world of the Lin Party.

With Lin Qinran's evil intelligence and talent, now he is allowed to stand in this position. However, Long Qing is an incompetent person who wants to enjoy, but no one can restrain Lin Qinran anymore.

In view of this, Xu Jie also made corresponding strategic adjustments, but he wanted to direct another wonderful show, which could even lead to Lin Shiran's downfall.

"Okay, the grass people will go north now and will definitely live up to the expectations of the cabinet!" After hearing Xu Jie's various explanations, Shao Fang took the letter and expressed his respectfully.

Xu Jie had already seen Shao Fang's ability, so he nodded gently. After watching Shao Fang leave, the corners of his mouth couldn't help but rise slightly.

Although he has been away from the court for nearly a year, he has managed the court for so many years and has had a great influence on the court. If it weren't for Lin Qingran's existence, he would probably be able to dominate the direction of the court at this time.

But he believed that using such a beautiful move would definitely cause another bloody storm in the court, and he could take advantage of the fisherman.

"Dad, something big is wrong!" Xu Ying suddenly stumbled in and said with a panic look on his face.

Xu Jie's treacherous smile just now was seen by Xu Ying, and he blamed him with extreme dissatisfaction: "What a moral character to be so panicked!"

"Dad, something really happened!" Xu Ying did not care about Xu Jie's dissatisfaction, so he emphasized seriously.

Seeing Xu Ying's panic expression, Xu Jie still asked calmly: "Zhang Daniu's case is at most a false accusation. Why are you panic?"

Huh?

When Xu Ying heard this, she couldn't help but look up at her father in surprise. Only then did she realize that her small actions had never deceived her father, including this time she tricked Lin Run over to deal with Zhang Daniu's affairs in his name.

"Tell me! What's the case?" Xu Jie looked at Xu Ying's surprised expression and seemed to pick up the teacup with pride and asked lightly.

In fact, before Xu Ying invited Lin Run over under his own name, he had already learned about Zhang Daniu's case, and even more so, he knew that Xu Ying wanted to confirm Zhang Daniu's plan to rob the tomb through Xu Guangnian.

But this is actually a trivial matter. After all, whether Zhang Daniu was intentional or unintentional, the fact that it was iron-like to dig out the coffin was hard to escape the ruling of the law.

No matter how bad this matter becomes, it will not go bad. At most, it will bear the reputation of revenge on Zhang Daniu, but this is nothing to the Xu family, which has deep roots.

Xu Ying swallowed and spitted, looked at Zhizhu's father with complicated eyes, and told everything that had just happened in the Songjiang Prefecture Courtyard.

Xu Jie was originally listening to the case with a smile, but the smile on his face quickly disappeared. When he heard about Baiheba and Baihe Village, his face became solemn.

I thought it was an irrelevant little thing, but I didn't want to involve my family not only occupying dozens of acres of fertile land in Baihe Village, but also opening the Baihe Dam to break the dam.

Especially the latter, such a thing is related to humanity. Once it is found out that the Xu family destroyed the dike and flooded the fields, even Longqing would not be able to protect himself.

The imperial court may allow you to occupy the land of ordinary people, but if you achieve the goal of occupying the land by destroying the dike and flooding the fields, it will inevitably arouse public outrage among the whole world.

As soon as he thought of this, he knew that Zhang Daniu's case had far exceeded his expectations, and even his retired prime minister would be dragged down by this matter.

"Dad, what should we do now?" Xu Ying asked with great concern after finishing the incident.

After all, Xu Jie was a person who had experienced great storms and soon calmed down and said, "It's time to come. I can only talk to Hai Rui and return the occupied land. I can't let this matter go to the court!"

In fact, he never took Hai Rui seriously, and his opponent had only one from beginning to end. As long as Lin Qingran was not caught, he could continue to live his life in Songjiang.

But when things have developed to this point, he can only make some concessions to Hai Rui and try to gently expose the Xu family's invasion of Baihe Village's land.

"Dad, our family is not afraid of Haigangfeng!" Xu Ying's panic just now actually had a bit of acting, and he also looked embarrassed and said with a look of embarrassment at this time.

Xu Jie glared at Xu Ying fiercely and said angrily: "If you two weren't so chaotic and didn't know how to be kind to the tail, why would I not be safe in my later years?"

"I'll have a chat with Hai Gangfeng for my father and return the hundreds of acres of land to Songjiang Prefecture!" Xu Ying sighed inwardly, and said helplessly.

Xu Jie thought for a moment, then shook his head gently and said, "I will come forward in person for this matter. You ask the butler to send invitations to Hai Gangfeng and Wang Honghai, and invite them to come to the family banquet!"

"Yes, I'll do it now!" Xu Ying saw that his father was really going to entertain Hai Rui himself, including Wang Honghai, and he agreed helplessly.

Xu Jie picked up the teacup and took a sip of strong tea, but a feeling of anxiety surged in his heart. However, this anxiety was incomprehensible from the source, which made his eyebrows frown slightly.

"Dad, Xu Guangnian was detained in the government jail by Hai Rui for false accusation. I also asked my father to lend a helping hand to Xu Guangnian!" Xu Ying was worried that Xu Guangnian would confess his evil deeds over the years, so she immediately gritted her teeth and asked.

A flash of inspiration flashed through Xu Jie's mind, and he looked very shocked and raised his head and said, "You said... Hai Rui detained Xu Guangnian?"

"It is! Because the coffin was washed over by a flood, and there was a lot of river sand in the coffin, it was easy to prove that Xu Guangnian had committed perjury, and Hai Rui also used this to detain Xu Guangnian in the government jail!"

Ying saw Xu Jie's shock, but it seemed normal for Xu Guangnian to be detained for perjury, so she nodded seriously and responded.

Xu Jie finally realized the source of his uneasiness, but suddenly blurted out: "If the case is so obvious, they shouldn't have detained Zhang Daniu for so long, so they actually did it on purpose!"

"Dad, what do you mean is that they were actually planning to detain Xu Guangnian?" Xu Ying said with shock and fear when she heard this speculation.

The Songjiang Prefecture Prison looks gloomy and terrifying.

Since Hai Rui became the magistrate, he has adhered to the principle of mastering the people and has also locked up many illegal gentry and gangsters here. Although there is constant grievance, there is no sound of injustice.

Xu Guangnian was locked in the deepest prison, but he only smelled the unpleasant smell in the air. In addition, the place was dark and humid, but he didn't want to stay for a minute. He always hoped that the Xu family would rescue him.

After a night of suffering, when he saw Wang Honghai, the Tongzhi of Songjiang Prefecture, appear here, he cried and said, "Wang Tongzhi, the villain is willing to compensate Zhang Daniu with a thousand taels, please let me go!"

"False accusation? You're not just false accusations!" Wang Honghai immediately snorted coldly, then took out a stack of paper and said, "Xu Guangnian, do you want to take a look at the evil deeds you have committed over the years? Not to mention the distance, if it were our yesterday

If you don’t help me, I’m afraid that the actor will be the one you arranged to sink into the river, right?”

"Why are you..." Xu Guangnian's eyes immediately glared, but pointed at Wang Honghai in shock.

"How do you know, right? Do you really think I have not done anything in the past few years? Didn't you notice the miserable things you did for the Xu family?" Wang Honghai seemed to have seen through Xu Guangnian, but directly exposed his thoughts

road.

But not to mention the need to eliminate this great harm for the people of Songjiang, the grudge between Xu Jie and his mentor and the hatred he was sent to the place was enough to give him the motivation to target the Xu family.

After so many years of secret observation and investigation, how could he not know the complex structure of the Xu clan?

There are decent figures like Xu Jie who show off as a great charity, and who do dirty things for the benefit of the Xu family, and Xu Guangnian is one of the core people who do dirty things.

The reason why I was not in a hurry to release Zhang Daniu this time was actually because I deliberately tempted the Xu family to unable to hold back their actions, so there was enough reason to detain Xu Guangnian, a person with a lot of evil deeds, and then became a breakthrough to overthrow the Xu family.

Xu Guangnian felt that he had been targeted by the poisonous snake, but he still said stubbornly: "Wang Tongzhi, I...I don't know what you said?"

"Do you still want to argue? Not to mention that the actor's case was already stolen and captured yesterday, these murder cases about missing people are all your masterpieces, right?" Wang Honghai handed over the list of missing people, but it was

Said lightly.

Xu Guangnian opened the paper and saw the familiar names, and couldn't help but swallow his spitting secretly, "I don't know these people!" After pausing, he suddenly added some confidence and shouted: "I am the clan brother of Master Xu,

Don't scare me here!"

"Gemaster Xu? Not to mention whether he will lend a helping hand to you. Just because the Xu family invaded the land of Baihe Village this time, I'm afraid it's hard to protect itself now!" Wang Honghai knew that Xu Jie was Xu Guangnian's

The biggest reliance is to deliberately despise authenticity.

Xu Guangnian knew that Xu Jie did not have the power he had back then, and even knew that his crime had been controlled by Wang Honghai, but he tentatively said: "Wang Tongzhi, what do you want to do if you have worked so hard?"

"Tell everything you know, especially the truth about the Xu family, including the Baiheba dike, otherwise you will definitely die!" At this moment, a young man with a very dignified appearance came out of the darkness and said lightly.

.

Wang Honghai looked at the young man, and then turned his eyes to Xu Guangnian and threatened: "Xu Guangnian, do you want to go to the Nanzhen Fushi Office to receive torture? Or stay in Songjiang Prefecture to survive, you can make a decision on your own.

Bar!"

Xu Guangnian looked at the young man, and the hatred in his eyes made him decide that the other party was a senior executive of the Jinyiwei, and then he tentatively said: "If I ask, what do you use to ensure my life?"

The mysterious young man exchanged a look with Wang Honghai, and then blew his own identity and said: "I am Wu Kang, the commander of the Nanzhen Fushi. The Lin Ge of the dynasty was my brother-in-law. I wonder if my brother-in-law's reputation may make you feel at ease?"

"Okay, I'll do it!" Xu Guangnian knew that he would face torture if he didn't do it this time, so he made a decision.

The reason why he has been so glorious over the years is that he has shouldered this mission, but he has helped the Xu family deal with many unknown dark events, so he knows the many plans of the Xu family.

Wu Kang and Wang Honghai looked at each other, and these long-term plans were finally rewarded.

As capital is bloodthirsty, the Xu family has also received hundreds of thousands of acres of fertile land. After all, the way to obtain wealth in this era is not creation, but naked plunder.
