Chapter 51 Visiting the Li family’s old house at night
"This is!"
Looking at the golden box, Chen Yuan's eyes were straightened.
The magistrate has never dreamed of seeing so much gold in his dream.
"Governor Zhao learned that you were honest and honest in your official position, so he specially ordered me to send you 10,000 taels of gold."
"How about it, Lord Shen, can Han Maocai be suspicious in the case?"
"It's easy to say, everything is easy to say." Chen Yuan rubbed his hands and said excitedly.
"I will thank Governor Zhao when I go back. I will definitely visit you in person tomorrow."
"Since that's the case, Lord Shen will eat here slowly. I will say goodbye first."
Zhuge Xuanming shook his sleeves and left, thinking that he was some difficult honest official.
He is just a greedy villain.
Such a person is not worthy of his attack.
When Sanjiang Tower was only left with sinking source, the greed on his face gradually disappeared.
He said calmly.
"Hu Er, go upstairs to get the gold away!"
Outside Sanjiang Tower, hundreds of people surrounded here and pointed at the restaurant.
Suddenly, several yamen runners walked down with five iron boxes.
The new governor Chen Yuan followed closely behind.
"Look, Governor Chen collected five boxes of stolen silver in one breath, at least 10,000 taels."
Someone whispered.
"Not only, according to my husband's observation, the weight of the box is not much like silver, but more like gold."
hiss!
Everyone took a breath.
"So, isn't it equivalent to 100,000 taels of silver?"
"Oh my God, that dog official Zhao Wenhui gave the governor Chen 100,000 taels of silver in one breath!"
As soon as these words were spoken, everyone looked at Chen Yuan again with disgust.
I originally thought that the person who came was a clean official, but I didn't expect that he would be the same as Han Mao.
When will Yingzhou be the end if this continues?
In the crowd, two women with hats, one big and one small, stood in the corner.
Watching the team quietly.
"Sister, everyone says that Lord Shen is a corrupt official, so why should he save us?"
The two are the Yun sisters who were rescued by Chen Yuan before.
After leaving Qingyuan County, the two rushed to Yingzhou without stopping.
I wanted to hand over the things to Chen Yuan, but I saw this scene.
Upon hearing this, Yun Niangbai's pretty face was filled with disappointment.
He didn't expect that Shen Qingtian, who was upright, would have lost his eyes by the gold.
a long time.
Yun Niang took a deep breath: Let's go, we will go back to visit them when it gets dark.
After saying that, the two of them hid in the crowd, but what they didn't know was.
Two men in thick clothes followed quietly.
…
When he returned to Yingzhou Prefecture, he saw that the young master brought back so much gold, Xiao Taohong was shocked.
After rubbing his eyes, he couldn't believe it and said: Young Master, are you corrupt?
"No, someone gave him 10,000 taels of gold, and some people couldn't even get along with their mouths.
Hu Er said sarcastically.
He glared at the two of them, and Chen Yuan snorted angrily.
"Stop talking sarcastic words, warm two steamed buns for the young master. I'll be hungry for a long time."
"Young Master, I don't have to eat anymore. I see that these gold is better than any delicacies."
Xiao Taohong said with a tense face.
"Hmph, it's rare for the young master to think of me."
"Forget it, I'll go by myself."
Seeing that the young master was really hungry, Xiao Taohong hesitated for a moment and went to the kitchen to get two steamed buns and a plate of tofu.
"Eat it, I thought you ate in Sanjianglou and didn't cook."
"Just have tofu sauce." Chen Yuan chewed the steamed buns while facing Hu Er.
"Add all the prominent opera troupes and courtesans in Yingzhou to the government office."
"It's lively for him a day and a night."
"We both took advantage of the darkness to go to Li Dainian's old house."
"As far as I know, Governor Li still has his family alive, so maybe he can learn something from them."
Hu Er was stunned and suddenly realized: Sir, are you collecting gold to confuse the Governor's Office?
"What do you think?" Chen Yuan snorted angrily.
"We came to Yingzhou with great fanfare, and I don't know how many pairs of eyes are staring at us."
"If you don't show off your appearance of being a traitor, who dares to take it lightly?"
"When you came back, didn't you notice that there were fewer eyeliners outside the government office?"
"So that's it. We misunderstood you." Hu Er slapped his head, his face full of shame.
"I just said that the young master is still that young master, how could he not walk when he sees money?"
"Oh, I remembered that I also cooked two eggs in the kitchen and I'll take them to the young master."
Shenyuan...
Good things don’t go out, bad things spread thousands of miles, and since Chen Yuan received 10,000 taels of gold.
After inviting the opera troupe to the government office to sing the opera, the people's curses never stopped.
Among them, Yang Jinshui, Chen Yichi and others were especially fierce, shouting that God had no eyes.
Send such a corrupt official.
Li Jinzhong and others even sighed, going back to prepare for a secret rebellion.
After hearing the news, Zhao Wenhui smiled disdainfully. It was nothing more than 10,000 taels of gold.
At night, Yingzhou Prefecture's government office was decorated with lights and drama sounded.
What a lively scene.
Because it was invited by the governor, all the local celebrities and gentry sat in the courtyard to listen to the opera.
Seeing that the preparation was almost done, Chen Yuan wore his official uniform and wandered around in front of the crowd.
Back in the house, he quickly changed into his regular clothes and jumped out of the back window with Hu Er.
Li Danian was from Luoyang and was ordered to be transferred to the governor of Yingzhou a year and a half ago.
He is a fair and obedient person to enforce the law without rubbing sand in his eyes. He has always had a gap with Zhao Wenhui, the chief governor of the Dongyi Protectorate.
During a trade between the Khitans, Yelu Qiyan, a Khitan, rode a horse and injured the servant of Zhao Wenhui's family.
When he learned about it, he led his troops to surround the Songmo Governor's Office overnight.
Forced Songmo Governor Li Jinzhong to kill twenty Khitan nobles in a row.
Under pressure, Xiao Lan, who is of Khan's blood, married Zhao Wenxuan as the seventeenth concubine.
After Li Danian learned about this, he felt that if it continued to develop, it would likely cause rebellion among the Khitans.
Therefore, he went to Yingzhou Camp to find Zhao Wenhui to argue, but unexpectedly, the latter was beaten to death and hung on the flagpole on the spot.
"Sir, in front of you is Li Danian's residence in Yingzhou."
Hu Er pointed to a dilapidated door panel in the alley and said.
"Go in and take a look."
Chen Yuan glanced around and took Hu Er to the door and knocked gently for a while.
"Who?" A gentle voice came.
"In Shenyuan, it is Li Danian's student, and I'm here to visit my elders."
"Oh, it's a student from Da Nian, come in."
The door opened, and a woman with a gentle face appeared at the door.
The eyes swept across the two, and the woman frowned slightly.
"I know all the students of Da Nian, why haven't I seen you before?"
"Who are you?"
Seeing that his identity was exposed, Chen Yuan told the truth.
"I'm not hiding my sister-in-law's wife, the governor of this official Yingzhou, came to investigate the cause of his death."
"What, are you from the Yingzhou government?" The woman's face changed and she wanted to close the door, but was blocked by Hu Er.
"Sister-in-law, my elders came here at the emperor's order to eliminate harm to the people."
"Don't miss the last chance."
The woman's face changed constantly, and she finally gritted her teeth.
