Chapter 49 Run away, sister
The county magistrate Pan from the county government searched this area.
After hearing the report from Manager Yan, Li Zhuohang asked quickly: "This person surnamed Pan is the Pan Yue we are in acquaintance?"
Manager Yan said, "It's him."
Li Zhuohang recognized Pan Yue because of the former county magistrate Yan Ji of Qinghua County. He and Yan Ji were close friends and had dated before Yan Ji joined the officialdom.
During the period when Yan Ji was appointed as the magistrate of Qinghua County, Li Zhuohang often came to Qinghua Prefecture, one for inspecting shops and the other for visiting friends. Later, Yan Ji went to Zhenjiang Prefecture to take up his post, and Li Zhuohang came less. Li Zhuohang also heard about Liu's character and was unwilling to deal with him. He responded to the social engagements at the official side, and ordered the shopkeeper Yan to find Pan Yue.
Pan Yue was in his twenties, and his father and grandfather worked in the yamen: his grandfather was the prison chief of the county yamen, and his father worked as a captain in the county yamen. Therefore, the Pan family was in Qinghua Mansion. Pan Yue was loyal and had friends of all kinds of religions and all kinds of people. When Yan Ji left office, he asked him to take care of the Li family's business.
At that moment, Li Zhuohang met him out in person, and while greeting Pan Yue, he also asked Manager Yan: "On a hot day, first open a few watermelons to quench the thirst for the officials; then prepare some tremella and mung bean soup, and wait until the officials finish checking and drinking."
Manager Yan quickly agreed and immediately ordered.
Li Zhuohang took the opportunity to invite Pan Yue in and speak.
He wants to figure out what kind of play Liu Zhifu sang!
When the emperor dies, there will be changes in the court and officialdom. This change is particularly important for the prosperous and prosperous Jiangnan, and he must be careful.
In the hall, the two sat down.
Li Hanyao came in to serve tea and fruits. She put down the fruits and fruits, and then she stopped leaving. She stood beside Li Zhuohang and wanted to find out the news.
Although Pan Yue worked in the yamen, he treated Li Zhuohang differently. First, Manager Yan had really given him a lot of things over the years and treated him as a personal support. You must know that the Li family did not even favor the new Liu prefect. Secondly, he often heard Yan Jing say that Li Zhuohang was full of knowledge and was a personal figure, not like an ordinary cunning merchant; furthermore, the Li family was rich and had a wide range of contacts in the official position, so he was very willing to make friends.
At that moment, he clasped his fists and smiled: "Disturbate Mr. Li."
Li Zhuohang smiled and said, "Brother Wei is in business, how can he disturb him?"
Pan Yue felt very comfortable when he heard the sound of "Big Brother".
Li Zhuohang said again: "It is thanks to Brother Wei's care over the years that the small trumpet was able to operate smoothly. I am very grateful to me."
Pan Yue said: "Where is not taken care of much."
After being polite, Li Zhuohang asked him what happened.
Pan Yue said: "It's not Mr. Liu yet..."
He had a cousin who worked in the government office and knew everything. He was very clear about this matter. He was short-speaking and told him that Young Master Liu and Tan Dong's family from Fengsheng Grain Store were forced to occupy and sell the Taomin girl, but the woman broke her life.
"There is only one son in the prefect Liu. Now that this incident is the last one, it is equivalent to being defeated. How can you not be angry? Now, all the people in the yamen have come out."
Wang He did not tell Li Hanyao that he had broken the lifeblood of Mr. Liu. After hearing Pan Yue's words, Li Hanyao admired the young lady very much and attracted her as a confidant, thinking that the young lady was the same as her. When she replaced her with a delicate girl, she was so scared that she didn't know how she cried, let alone counterattacking the evil thief.
But there was one thing she didn't quite understand: what was the lifeblood that was, why would it be the last one if the prefect Liu broke it?
She is a servant now and it is hard to ask.
She thought: "Wait until you go back and ask your sister."
Li Zhuohang thought to himself: "This is retribution."
He said, "Since the prefect issued an order to search, we all obeyed the order. I just hope that my brother would tell them: be gentle when they turn over."
Pan Yue smiled and said, "This is not the brother's order."
These officials are like wolves and tigers. They often go to private houses in the name of office work and take advantage of the situation. Just like raiding the house, who will ask for reason afterwards? Li Zhuohang also knew their bad nature, so he asked Pan Yue to take care of him.
Li Zhuohang took out a purse and handed it to Pan Yue, saying, "I'm going to take this little thing, please help me with it."
Pan Yue hurriedly said, "Without brother here, there is no need for these."
Li Zhuohangdao: "Brother Wei has a wide range of social events, how can you let you pay for it? Besides, thanks to the big brother's care, I should have thanked me for the small account."
Pan Yue shirked and accepted it.
He was afraid that people would say he had neglected his duties, so he guessed that the officials had eaten the watermelon, so he stood up and said, "Brother, brother, I'm going to be presumptuous."
Li Zhuohang hurriedly said, "Please give me some advice."
I immediately changed my name.
The two walked out.
Li Hanyao hurriedly followed him out.
Pan Yue stood on the steps and ordered the yamen runners to bring him: Someone checked the front yard and someone checked the back yard. As he was talking, two people suddenly came in outside. The one in front was the shopkeeper Diao from the Successful Grain Store. He walked straight towards him and bowed with his fists.
Pan Yue asked: "What's wrong with the shopkeeper Diao?"
The shopkeeper Diao smiled and said, "I'm sorry, because I have seen those two murderers, the prefect ordered a villain to assist the county magistrate Pan to search. I'm afraid that the old men will not recognize the person. The murderer will be cunning and will be scrambled by them."
Pan Yue was very displeased when he heard this: Not to mention whether he was a mess or not, he didn't like others to insert his own power sphere, and he was not a member of the public.
Li Zhuohang just gave him a lot of face, and Taiping shops could not hide the murderer, so he planned to deal with it randomly and leave. When Diao came and watched from the side, how could he be so favorable?
His face was not good at that time.
He could not resist the order of the prefect Liu, so he nodded and said, "Shopkeeper Diao should come. I heard that it was the shopkeeper who led the woman selling peaches to the government office. Mr. Liu ended up like this, and the shopkeeper must not feel uncomfortable." After that, he said to everyone: "Go and search. They are all old neighbors, be gentler."
Everyone should be busy, and they are scattered.
Manager Diao rushed over and was covered in sweat and blushed like Guan Gong. After hearing Pan Yue’s words, the sweat suddenly turned into cold sweat.
These words accused him of being the culprit; and he tricked the peach-selling woman to the government office and pushed her good daughter into the fire pit, using shameful means. Now Pan Yue said that there was no face.
He saw Li Zhuohang standing aside with a very strong temperament, but Manager Yan did not introduce him to him at all. He had long heard that the owner behind the Taiping Silk and Satin Village was a wealthy family in Huizhou, and he had a good relationship with his former county magistrate Yan Ji. It seemed that this person was this person. No wonder Pan Yue took care of him so much. However, this person never worshiped Liu.
Seeing that his face was changing, Li Zhuohang knew that this was a villain and was too lazy to talk to him. Anyway, he didn't hide the murderer, so what was he afraid of?
He was not afraid, Li Hanyao was scared.
When this Diao comes, the young lady is afraid that she can't hide it. If the young lady is found out, she will break the lifeblood of the prefect, and the fate will be miserable. The Li family's silk and satin shop will also be implicated. At that time, the father will be arrested and went to the government. What should she and her mother do? The Li family will collapse!
The more Li Hanyao thought about it, the more she became, the more she became anxious.
She ran away and followed the officials and shouted loudly, "We will not hide the murderer. All officials will check it out, and the boxes and cabinets are opened. Just ask all officials to be gentle and don't mess things up... After checking, they will have mung bean soup to drink."
This is a reminder to Wang He: Run away quickly.
