Stepping on the afterglow of the setting sun, Qihao arrived at Baihuayuan.

Cloud engine see Kai Hao, said with a smile: "ah Hao, you come just in time, I discussed with your mother to go to cangyan mountain tomorrow." Cangyan mountain is not far from the capital. I can go home before the new year.

Qi Hao said with a smile: "good." They are in good health and full of energy. It's good to go out for a walk.

Yuxi see Kai Hao mood is good, asked: "but Jiangnan case solved?" The capital has been calm recently. Nothing's wrong.

Qi Hao nodded with a smile: "not yet. However, ah you caught the nigger who had escaped for more than ten years with the nigger. " The imperial court has not given up on the pursuit of these two people, but the two people have no trace. If the imperial court wants to arrest them, it can't start.

Yuxi nodded his head and said, "it's very smart. It's hard to be found hidden in Yangzhou."

"Niang, you don't know that the black faced salt merchant, whose alias is Rong Tongji, is a famous salt merchant in Yangzhou. Rong Tongji is the biggest suspect in this salt smuggling case. " If it wasn't for Qiyou's ability to see people, his identity would never have been exposed.

Cloud engine black face said: "a bandit investment turned out to be a local famous salt merchants, really ability."

Yuxi also felt that this man was bold enough to hide his name in a backward place like AGA village. He even dared to change his name and appear in front of the world. However, it's normal to think about how people who are used to enjoying life like this can get used to living in the mountains and forests: "the people behind him must be found out. If my guess is right, this person either has his big advantage or he has the handle. " The man behind the scenes must be in the officialdom. If we don't eliminate these people, we will be able to bring disaster to the common people in the future.

Qi Hao en said in a voice: "Niang, I believe ah you will be able to find out." He has great confidence in Qiyou.

After a pause, Qihao said to Yuxi, "Niang, after this case, I want to promote Qiyou to minister of punishment." To be a servant of the Ministry of punishment is to give up, but the Secretary of the Ministry of punishment is too busy to give up. Although Qi you is lazy, he has a strong sense of responsibility. If he is appointed Minister of the Ministry of punishment, he will certainly do a good job,

Yunqing has no opinion. His son is so capable that a minister of the Ministry of punishment can't defeat him.

Yu Xi shook his head and said, "although ah you is capable, he is too young. If you let him be the Minister of the Ministry of punishment, the government and the public will surely feel that you are cronyist. "

Qihao doesn't care what his subordinates think, but he doesn't like Meng Xuemin, who is very stable. He always asks him if he doesn't want to solve problems by himself. To speak well is to be cautious; to speak poorly is to be afraid of responsibility.

Yuxi said with a smile: "wait for him to handle two big cases, and take him as Minister of the Ministry of punishment." To solve a big case once is luck. Three times, it can't be luck. In this way, we can also convince the public.

Qihao knew what Yuxi meant and nodded: "good."

The case of ghost face shocked the whole Jiangnan. Even Fu Mingming was surprised. However, Qiyou is an imperial envoy and a prince, so he is not ready to intervene in this matter. But looking at the eldest son kneeling on the ground, the blue veins on Fu Minglang's forehead jumped up.

Two sons, Fu Tingyan, are gifted to study. It's just that when I was beaten by the clansmen in my hometown, I couldn't hear clearly. I can't be an official if I have a disability. Therefore, Fu Tingyan did not have the imperial examination, and he has been helping him deal with some of his daily official affairs over the years. Because of careful thinking, he has become Fu Minglang's right arm. A lot of things, it's him.

After a long silence, Fu Minglang asked, "why give the ghost face salt?" Fu Tingyan's temperament is very clear, and he is very cautious. He can't provide salt guide to black face for no reason.

Fu Tingyan hung his head and did not speak.

Fu Minglang said with a cold face, "what's the matter? Now tell me that there may be room for remedy. If I don't tell you the truth, I will lose my official position. "

Some members of the Fu family seized his family's property and abused his mother, wife and children on the ground that he was a burglar. Later, after Fu Ming Lang developed, he broke away from the clan and severed the relationship with the Fu clan. If he is removed from his official post for committing a crime, there will be no one to help him. In the past few years, officials have also offended many people. If they want him to lose power, they will swallow him alive. He's not afraid of death at such an age. He's afraid of implicating his children and grandchildren.

Fu Tingyan then said, "Rong Tongji took hold of Tingyan. When tingkuan asked me, I would answer it." Fu tingkuan is Fu Minglang's youngest son.

How can Fu Tingyan tolerate the fact that a peddler dares to threaten his brother. Fu Tingyan didn't give Rong Tongji a lot of salt at that time, and the reason why he agreed to Fu tingkuan's request also meant to kill people with a knife.

Taking money is like killing a parent. Rong Tongji wants to get a piece of salt from those salt merchants, but those people will not agree. Without his help, Rong Tongji was killed by these people. Unexpectedly, Rong Tongji not only didn't get killed by these people, but also did more and more business.

Fu Minglang said with a black face, "what did you grasp?" For this little son, Fu Minglang is also very helpless. I don't have the ability to eat, drink and have fun. It's like king you. Therefore, Fu Minglang has been holding her tightly. Later, he also married a powerful daughter-in-law

Fu Tingyan lowered his head and said, "ah Kuan, he has a son outside." Fu tingkuan's daughter-in-law gave birth to a son and a daughter. However, no one has too many sons. In particular, they hope that people will prosper. But he and Fu tingkuan had only one son under their knees.

Fu Minglang asked in a deep voice, "can't you see the child's identity?"

Fu Tingyan nodded and said, "yes. The child's foster father is a former classmate of tingkuan. " This shows that Fu tingkuan had an affair with a married woman and had a son.

Fu Minglang black face said: "such a big thing, why did not tell me before?" If this matter is publicized, their Fu family's reputation will stink.

Fu Tingyan was also unjust. At the beginning, Fu tingkuan just told him that the child's mother was a brothel woman, and he was afraid of being scolded by Fu Minglang, so he asked him for help. Later I learned that it was not a brothel girl at all, but a good family girl.

Fu Minglang didn't scold Fu Tingyan either. It didn't help to scold Fu Tingyan at this time: "besides, what convenience did you give him?"

Fu Tingyan shook his head and said, "no more." Seeing that Rong Tongji wanted to kill his two salt merchants, Fu Tingyan knew that it was a poisonous snake and could not touch it at all. So he suggested to Fu Minglang that Fu tingkuan be a small official to train him. Fu Minglang agreed, but gave him advice from a small remote county in Xihai. There are few scholars in this kind of place, and Fu tingkuan is not afraid of causing trouble there.

The place was poor and remote. Fu tingkuan didn't want to stay there at all. Every so often he wrote to Fu Tingyan to cry and tell him that he wanted to come back. It's a pity that Fu Tingyan didn't get used to him this time, so he stayed in Qinghai all these years.

Fu Minglang said to Fu Tingyan, "you will go to Yangzhou tomorrow and tell King you that this is what tingkuan begged you to do. When I found out, I sent tingkuan to Qinghai. "

Fu Tingyan hesitated and said, "Dad, do you have to do this? In this way, you will still be involved. "

"No, what else do you want?"

Fu Tingyan said: "Dad, we will never let Rong Tongji open his mouth." People are dead, they can no longer be involved.

Fu Minglang looked at his son, shook his head and said, "killing Rong Tongji is dead without proof. But also offended you Wang. Anyone in the court can offend, but not you Wang. " This guy is a must. If he does something in front of him, he will remember it all his life. It's not a good thing to be missed by such a tough character.

Fu Tingyan hesitated and said: "Dad, you Wang knows to eat, drink and have fun all day. This case is not sure. It's luck!" He felt that Fu Minglang's evaluation of Qiyou was a little too high.

He has known Qiyou for so many years. He really doesn't feel that Qiyou is powerful. I really have some experience in eating, drinking and playing.

"Luck, you make me such a good luck." As an old minister, I can't see through Yuxi's mind. So this time when Qiyou came to Yangzhou, he asked the people under his hand to cooperate as much as possible, and he was not allowed to obstruct Qiyou in handling the case.

"Dad, who doesn't know that king you likes to eat, drink and have fun. The mind is never on the right path. "

Fu Minglang felt that his son was immature, and said, "king you is lazy in his work. He eats, drinks and plays all day. That's his protective color."

Fu Tingyan didn't understand.

Fu Minglang did not say any more: "think about it when you come back. Now, hurry to Yangzhou to solve the problem. "

Later in the night, Fu Tingyan arrived in Yangzhou. In the morning, I went to see Qiyou.

Hand pestle in the long case, Qiyou said with a smile: "black face confessed last night." No one can bear the torture, even the black face.

Fu Tingyan knelt on the ground and said in a low voice: "my father didn't know about it in advance. I did it behind his back. Lord, I deserve what I have done. No matter how I am punished, I will admit it. But my father really doesn't know anything. " He didn't want his father involved because of himself.

Qiyou said, "Fu Minglang doesn't know anything about this matter. I know it. I'll write about it in the fold." Although there was a corruption case in Yangzhou this time, Rong Tongji didn't make much money selling salt a few years ago. He started smuggling salt to make money.

If Fu Tingyan were the backing of Rong Tongji, he would not try to bribe Bai Zhenghu. So Rong Tongji said he gave Fu Tingyan many benefits, he did not believe a word.

Fu Tingyan was very grateful: "my father keeps in mind the kindness of the Lord. In the future, if the Lord has something to do but he is in charge of us, we will never delay what we can do. "

Qi you cut a: "don't talk about these useless, help your father to keep good Jiangnan." How bad did he have to be to use the Fu family.
