Chapter 101: Chapter 101: Confiscation of the House

Chapter 101: Chapter 101: Confiscation of the HouseThe little turtle man was hit, but he was not angry at all. He had a smile on his face and was respectful and even flattering:

"Please wait a moment. I'll go right away. Young Master Yang is here. My wife will be very happy to know that she is so happy."

Xu Qi'an visited Fuxiang every now and then. The courtyard had long believed that he was the lover of the courtesan. The little gatekeeper was arrogant and cold to other guests, but he dared not neglect Xu Qi'an.

He wanted to kneel down and lick her.

Xu Qi'an led the night watchman into the courtyard. The plum forest in the corner was fragrant, and the white walls and black tiles were quite elegant.

When the courtesan heard that Xu Qi'an had booked the whole place, she immediately asked the maid to put on exquisite makeup and wear a pink and white floor-length dress, revealing her delicate collarbone and white neck.

The white bra was faintly visible in the gauze.

Fuxiang accompanied Xu Qi'an in person, serving tea and wine to him, occasionally whispering in his ear, smiling like a flower.

The copper gongs were envious.

Fuxiang was a famous courtesan. After the song "An Xiang Floating in the Moonlight" was published, her value rose sharply.

I heard that she no longer entertains guests, at least ordinary people can't.

Even so, there are still many guests who come to Yingmei Pavilion every day to drink, listen to music and have tea, because Fuxiang occasionally comes out to be the leader and organize everyone to play drinking games.

After three rounds of drinking, Xu Qi'an winked at Song Tingfeng and stood up and said, "My colleagues, Xu is not good at drinking. I will take a rest first. You play."

The copper gongs had no objection, and they exchanged glances with each other and laughed.

Fuxiang's eyes moved, and she looked at Xu Qi'an strangely, and then let him leave with her arm around her shoulders.

After bathing, Xu Qi'an wore a white singlet, sat lazily, and twisted the wine glass in his hand.

"Xu Lang rarely brings colleagues to drink." Fu Xiang, who had just finished bathing, sat on the bed a little further away, tilting her head and wiping her hair.

Her skin was soft and her face was flawless. In the flickering candlelight, she looked more charming and mysterious.

"It's a long story," Xu Qi'an took a sip of wine and sighed, "A few days ago, two Jinluo took a fancy to me and wanted to recruit me, so we had a fight in the night watchman's office."

Fu Xiang got out of bed, her skirt fell down, covering her two pairs of snow-white long legs. She hugged Xu Qi'an from behind and chuckled, "Are you jealous of me?"

"Red eye disease has existed since ancient times." Xu Qi'an did not deny it.

"Xu Lang said earlier, so that I can entertain your colleagues for you." Fu Xiang regretted.

She didn't pay much attention to the other Tongluo during the meal.

"No need." Xu Qi'an smiled.

He has good interpersonal skills. He hugged Fuxiang in his arms, tilted the wine glass, and the cold wine flowed down Fuxiang's snow-white neck.

"It's more enjoyable to drink like this." Xu Qi'an laughed and lowered his head.

Fuxiang, who smelled of alcohol, was soaked again. Xu Qi'an left the master bedroom on the pretext of going out for fresh air and took a look at the wine room. His colleagues were playing games happily in the music, as if opening the door to a new world.

In fact, as long as enough silver is given, the maids in the courtyard of the Jiaofangsi will not refuse. It has been like this since ancient times.

Xu Qi'an jumped onto the wall, took out a piece of paper from his arms, and ignited it.

He raised his head, and two clear air shot through the night and flashed away.

In his sight, various fates emerged, and the world became colorful.

Xu Qi'an learned from Chu Caiwei that the green color represents evil spirits. When patrolling that night, he clearly saw a green light flashing in the sky above the Jiaofangsi.

This means that there are evil spirits lurking in the Jiaofangsi. It is a bold guess, because the Jiaofangsi is a place where dignitaries usually drink and have fun. Such a place actually hides evil spirits.

But that is the fact.

This time, Xu Qi'an kept in mind the principle that if you don't commit suicide, you won't die. He didn't go to spy on the Sitianjian, so as not to be blinded by the supervisor again.

He swept the sky above the Jiaofangsi. As far as his sight could reach, all kinds of colorful flashes flashed, but there was no evil spirit.

"Did the evil spirit leave... or hide in a special way?" Xu Qi'an jumped off the wall and returned to the boudoir of Fuxiang Hua Kui.

...

The young general Xu Ergongzi in white robes fought bravely in the encirclement of Fuxiang Hua Kui. After seven ins and outs, he was finally exhausted and vomited blood and lost.

The battlefield was in a mess, and both armies suffered heavy losses and urgently needed to recuperate.

Fuxiang, with messy black hair and flushed cheeks, curled up in Xu Qi'an's arms, blinking bright eyes: "Xu Lang, can you redeem me?"

Talking about money hurts feelings... Xu Qi'an, who was in the sage time, was unmoved.

The courtesan twisted her body and said coquettishly: "I just want to be a concubine, and I just want to serve Xu Lang."

Xu Qi'an touched her head and stroked her black hair with his fingers: "Don't make trouble, our sincere feelings should not be mixed with the smell of money."

Fuxiang's eyes turned red and she shed tears: "You just want to play with me for free, and kick me away when you are tired of playing."

You found out all this?! Xu Qi'an thought in surprise.

She said helplessly: "You are the courtesan of the Jiaofangsi. It is impossible to redeem you without four or five thousand taels. Moreover, the Ministry of Rites may not agree."

"I have saved some money over the years, and I have asked people. Tongluo can buy a courtyard in the inner city in just three years." Fuxiang hugged him and begged softly: "Xu Lang, redeem me."

The charming courtesan not only knew how to act like a spoiled child, but also made full use of her assets. Her exquisite and curvy figure pressed against Xu Qian'an.

There were tears in her eyes, and she looked pitiful.

Xu Qian'an frowned, but it was not difficult. In his previous life, he had met such girls who knew how to act like a spoiled child and wanted to buy this and that (luxury goods). Xu

Qian'an could handle it.

He was just a little surprised that a courtesan with a famous reputation, whose career was booming and who was in her prime, was too early to become a good woman. Besides, although the night watchmen were feared by officials due to organizational reasons, Fuxiang's rank was more than enough for her to be a concubine of a fourth-rank official. "There is no rush for this matter. I will redeem you when I have saved some money." Xu Qi'an said casually, hugging the oiran's smooth body and falling asleep in three seconds.

In the darkness, Fuxiang stared at Xu Qi'an's face quietly, with clear eyes.

.....

The next day, in the early morning, a group of people left the Jiaofang Division.

When colleagues saw Xu Qi'an, they greeted him with a smile, and their relationship became much closer. If they had only regarded Xu Qi'an as a colleague before, they would now regard

him as a friend.

The effect was very good.

In fact, as long as he was not too jealous or too high in status, the Tongluo of the same level would not mindlessly hate him.

If he was more flexible, catered to his preferences, and showed goodwill, most people would be willing to make friends with Xu Qi'an.

Because in this way, the identity of a guy who is lucky enough to be favored by two gold gongs is transformed into: this guy favored by the gold gongs is my friend.

Walking and chatting along the way, a copper gong suddenly laughed and said: "Ning Yan is really a talent. He made me realize how ignorant and boring I was before."

Colleagues laughed kindly and ambiguously.

Xu Qian'an shrugged, "I'll teach you a few more interesting ways to play later."

More interesting... Everyone's eyes lit up.

Arriving at the night watchman's office at the hour of Mao, after the roll call, Xu Qian'an and

Song Tingfeng came to the side hall of Chunfeng Hall, drank a few sips of tea, and were about to go out to patrol the streets when an official hurried over.

"Three adults, Lord Li invites you."

There is a job... Xu Qian'an and the other two hung up their swords and came to Chunfeng Hall

side by side.

Li Yuchun, who was dressed meticulously, perfectly integrated with the equally neat and orderly Chunfeng Hall without any abruptness.

Brother Chun, it's tiring to live like this... Xu Qian'an felt a little sympathetic to his boss's obsessive-compulsive disorder.

He thought to himself, when sleeping with a woman in the future, should I make A-level 100 in one position and 100 in the other position, otherwise I would feel uncomfortable?

Li Yuchun pointed to the three cards on the table: "Today I'm going to search the house, and

you three will represent me. I still have to repeat the same words, don't do unnecessary

things.

"Gather in the front yard in a quarter of an hour, and go with other colleagues."

It's a search of the house?!

Xu Qian'an was surprised. Searching the house is one of the duties of the night watchman, and the target is the offending official.

"This is a document. "Li Yuchun showed the document sent to him to the three people. The target of this house search was the head of the Ministry of Revenue and the Ministry of

Finance, who was a sixth-rank official. He was exiled and his house was searched for the crime of corruption and dereliction of duty.

The so-called house search means confiscating the family property, and all the property in

the house is confiscated. In Xu Qi'an's previous life, it was to deprive the criminal of his

personal property.

Li Yuchun glanced at Xu Qi'an and said, "This person is a subordinate of Zhou Shilang of the Ministry of Revenue."

This was to tell Xu Qi'an that this matter was a follow-up to the tax silver case.

The fall of a big boss in the court must be accompanied by the dismissal and punishment of

the officials who depended on him. Just like pulling out the radish and bringing out the mud.

Xu Qi'an and the other two took the order and left. On the way to the front yard, Song

Tingfeng said, "This is your first time to participate in the house search. You don't understand some rules. I will tell you.

"When confiscating property, the clerks will count the valuables in the front yard, record

them in the register, and then take them back to the government office. But they don't

participate in the plunder."

At this point, Song Tingfeng gave a look that said "you figure it out yourself."

Xu Qi'an, a seasoned man, immediately understood the meaning.

"Listen to the boss..." Xu Qi'an tried.

"Hey, don't worry about him." Song Tingfeng curled his lips: "The boss is stubborn and

doesn't know how to adapt. We have to seek benefits for ourselves reasonably."

is indeed a ore reasonable way to seek benefits, Xu Qi'an nodded.

Like him, Song Tingfeng was unwilling to blackmail merchants and extort the people, but seaʀᴄh thё Nôvelƒire.net website on Google to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality.

now he was going to confiscate the homes of corrupt officials. Silver itself is not clean, and it is the wool of Dafeng, not the wool of the people.

He has seen this kind of thing too many times in his previous life or this life. Xu Qi'an took an

attitude of neither opposition nor approval.

This time, the house search was led by a silver gong, four groups of copper gongs and 24

white servants.

Every three copper gongs belong to different silver gongs, and the system of multiple teams

is to supervise and report each other.

The system is good, but after a long time, everyone knows it tacitly, and everyone takes a

little, which is equivalent to no one taking anything.

Listening to Song Tingfeng's popular science, the three came to the front yard and saw that

the copper gongs were already gathering.

The leader was a young silver gong, in his early thirties, with thin lips and unruly eyebrows. Just looking at his face, you can tell that he is not an easy person to get along with.

Song Tingfeng led two colleagues to approach the silver gong and took out the voucher in his

arms.

When the silver gong saw the three people coming, his eyes suddenly became sharp and he said in a deep voice: "You three are late."

Xu Qian'an was stunned and said: "We are not late."

They came over after receiving the news. Although they talked on the way and walked slowly,

it definitely did not exceed a quarter of an hour.

When Yinluo heard this, his eyebrows stood up, his eyes suddenly became sharp, he took off

the sword from his waist, and whipped it towards Xu Qi'an's cheek.

In the sound of breaking through the air, Xu Qi'an leaned back and avoided the fierce

whipping in an instant.

As if he didn't expect Xu Qi'an to dodge, Yinluo was stunned and grinned: "You dare to

dodge." "Sir, sir..." Song Tingfeng hurriedly inserted himself between the two of them, shamelessly

smiled and said: "Yes, we are late, sir, don't be angry, we delayed the important things, there are still good things waiting for you."

He mentioned the confiscation of the house.

Who knew that Yinluo didn't give face at all, raised his foot and kicked Song Tingfeng in the lower abdomen, kicking him out, struggling for a while, but couldn't stand up.

He was targeting me.... But I didn't offend him.... Xu Qi'an was furious, and he subconsciously

pressed the handle of the knife.

Yinluo narrowed his eyes, but instead of getting angry, he smiled. He whipped him with his scabbard again, sneering, "What? You want to draw your sword? Are you worthy?"

If you draw your sword, I'm dead... Xu Qi'an raised his hand to block a few times, and his arm

bones were whipped and hurt.

It was a bit embarrassing to have so many people watching.

Seeing Xu Qi'an admit defeat, Yinluo whipped him a few more times, sneering, "Get in."

Xu Qi'an and his three men joined the team.

Next, more Tongluo came one after another, and the Yinluo didn't care and let them join the

team.

Seeing this scene, Xu Qi'an was absolutely sure that the Yinluo was targeting him, and he was puzzled that he didn't offend him.

"Luckily you didn't draw your sword just now, otherwise you would be finished." Someone

behind him said.

Xu Qi'an turned his head and took a look. It was Tongluo who drank wine with him last night.

"I'm not that stupid. Drawing a sword against Yinluo is a big sin." He said.

Tongluo nodded and whispered, "His surname is Zhu, and he is the youngest silver gong in

the yamen."

Xu Qi'an said depressedly, "I don't know him." Tongluo said, "Hey," "His father's surname is also Zhu."

Xu Qi'an thought that this was nonsense, and then he heard Zhu Guangxiao beside him

whisper, "Zhu Jinluo?" Tongluo, who was drinking wine, said, "Hmm," and added, "He is the youngest silver gong, and also the most promising young talent in our Beijing yamen, well, before Xu Qi'an appeared.

"The day before yesterday, I drank with Tongluo under his command, and he said that Zhu

Yinluo doesn't like you very much. He said more than once that you are just a copper gong..."

At this time, Zhu Yinluo glanced at everyone with a sharp gaze, and the Tongluo immediately

fell

silent.
