At this time, twenty or thirty well-trained officials were standing on the left and right. A middle-aged man in his early forties, wearing an official uniform, with a fat head and big ears, walked forward swaggeringly.

He looked at Qin Tingyun with disdain: "Are you Qin Tingyun?"

Qin Tingyun replied neither humble nor arrogantly: "They are just ordinary people!"

"I am Sun Rendong, the Prime Minister of Shuntian Prefecture. Someone has reported you for tax evasion! You should obediently hand over all your account books and go to Shuntian Prefecture with me!"

Qin Tingyun frowned: "Mr. Sun, is there any misunderstanding? I have been in business for many years and have always been law-abiding. I have always paid my taxes in full on time, and I have never missed a penny!"

Sun Rendong snorted coldly: "Whether you have missed payment or not is not what you say! I advise you to hurry up and take out all the account books! Let me find out as soon as possible, otherwise you will spend the entire New Year in jail!"

At this time, Manager Feng and Manager Hai hurriedly ran over: "Master, our shops in the capital and workshops in the suburbs have been sealed by officials, and all the ledgers have been taken away! And the cargo that just arrived at the dock has also been sealed.

Detained!"

Qin Tingyun's expression changed. He didn't check the account books clearly and there was no evidence, so he sealed the shop, closed the workshop, and seized the cargo ship?

What's the point?

Sun Rendong nodded: "Yes, I have asked people to seal your shop and workshop! So please hand over all the account books here. If there are any omissions or the accounts found by me are wrong, then don't blame me.

You're welcome, sir!"

Qin Xi came out at this time and sneered: "You dare to ask Mr. Sun, do you know which imperial law of our Tianyuan Kingdom stipulates that officials inspecting accounts can break into private houses? I don't know which law of Tianyuan Kingdom has not been clarified yet? No

With evidence, the imperial court officials can seal up shops, seize cargo ships, and arrest people? Those who don’t know better think that our Qin family has committed a heinous crime!"

Sun Rendong was about to have a fit, but he looked up and was shocked by Qin Xi's heavenly beauty!

He coughed, touched his beard and said suavely: "I am the Prime Minister of Shuntian Prefecture. I am responsible for prisons and taxes. To prevent some people from escaping after receiving the news, naturally I will arrest them first! You just need to be obedient.

If you cooperate, you will suffer less!"

He looked Qin Xi up and down wildly, tut... This figure, this waist...

As long as he plunders the Qin family, he will not only make great achievements in front of the prince! He can also take possession of such a beauty!

This trip was really an unexpected surprise!

What? The daughter of the Qin family has been granted a marriage by the emperor?

The emperor’s most hated wealthy businessman has evaded taxes!

Will the emperor still grant a tax evader to Prince Kyung?

Besides, the prince is his cousin and the queen is his aunt, so he is helping the prince with affairs.

The Qin family has blocked many ways for the prince to make money over the years!

He should have died!

What is he afraid of?

Furthermore, not long after, news of the Qin family's collaboration with the enemy and treason will come back. By then, all the Qin family's properties will be liquidated, and at least half of them will fall into the hands of the prince.

Then he can get a piece of the pie!

As long as he checks slowly, he can delay it until that moment!

That’s a win-win situation for people and money!

No, why didn't he take the opportunity tonight to get a collaboration letter and frame him?

Miscalculated!

In this way, he can help His Royal Highness capture the Qin family in advance!

But don’t worry, it’s the same thing if you take the person back and frame him again!

When the border incident was exposed, the Qin family was even more convinced of the crime of treason!

Qin Xi said calmly: "Master Sun, what you mean is that there is no provision in the law and it was Master Sun who broke into the house without evidence? So Master Sun is violating the law! Forgive us, the Qin family, for not cooperating!"

Sun Rendong seemed to have heard a big joke and couldn't help laughing: "Hahaha..."

No one has ever dared to say that he violated the law!

Even if he breaks the law and enforces the law, so what? Does anyone dare to resist?

Doesn't she know that the imperial law was made by his uncle, the emperor?

In this capital, whoever he wants to deal with must do it!

"My words represent the emperor's law! Since you don't eat the fine wine when toasting, don't blame me!" Sun Rendong was too lazy to talk nonsense with her. He waved his hand: "The Qin family is evading taxes in an attempt to delay time, destroy evidence, and give me the evidence.

Search! If anyone disobeys, we will all be tied up!"

The officials immediately started moving!

"Let me see who dares!"

The emperor walked out, followed by the King of Jin, the Minister of Household Affairs, Zhao Feigang, and Eunuch Lin.

Sun Rendong's eyes widened, I????

Who in this world dares to call himself me?

Although he has never met the emperor, he has met the King of Jin, the Minister of Household Affairs, and Zhao Feigang!!!

Why is the emperor not in the palace, but in the Qin family?

Sun Rendong received an anonymous letter reporting the incident, and immediately arranged for people to come to seal the shops and workshops, so he did not know what was going on outside the city.

His body shook like chaff, his legs softened, and he knelt down: "I am here to see you, Your Majesty, Your Highness the King of Jin, Mr. Lin! May your Majesty be blessed with peace and prosperity!"

A group of officials who swarmed up were so frightened that they put down their weapons and knelt down, not daring to take a breath!

Why is the emperor here?

It’s over!

When they come to search your home, it won't turn out to be a ransacked home, right?

The emperor snorted coldly: "With Master Sun saying this, he is a good official for Wang Fa. How can I just be blessed with good fortune and good health? I can become a scholar!"

To be laid to rest? Sun Rendong was so frightened that he peed, "I dare not, Your Majesty, spare my life! I am just... just bluffing! I just want to scare the criminals and get them to confess quickly?"

Thinking about my home being ransacked in my previous life, I guess it was the same, and it was ransacked without any clear evidence of the crime!

Qin Xi exuded an intimidating aura, and his voice was full of sarcasm: "Criminals? Plea guilty? Master Sun, does he have evidence to prove that we are criminals? He just ransacked the house without any evidence. Is this a deterrent or an attempt to frame the blame?"

Beaten to death? Those who don’t know better think that Master Sun is coveting the wealth of our Qin family and wants to take it for himself! If this is the case, the charge of tax evasion may not be enough. Master Sun, why don’t you charge our Qin family with treason and treason?

!”

Sun Rendong's eyes widened in shock. How did she know that he had this plan?

Seeing this, Qin Xi sneered: "Why does Mr. Sun's expression seem to have such a plan?"

Sun Rendong's heart almost jumped out of his chest: "When did I say this? Don't spray blood on others! If you want to incriminate someone, why bother?"

Qin Xi ignored him and turned around and knelt down in front of the emperor: "I beg the emperor, considering that the Qin family has donated more materials than we paid in taxes over the years, make the decision for the girl's family! Find someone who is honest and upright.

Officer, investigate this matter thoroughly! Our Qin family is not afraid of investigation! Our Qin family has always been law-abiding. We only pay more taxes, never less, we only pay them in advance, not late! Give justice to the Qin family! Also, Mr. Sun seems to intend to frame the case.

Our Qin family collaborates with the enemy and treason! Please investigate thoroughly! Collaboration with the enemy and treason is the crime of punishing the nine clans, and we cannot bear it! Lord Sun handles the case like this, and I don’t know how many unjust, false and wrong cases have been solved! Please investigate thoroughly! Don’t let treacherous ministers take over and plot to frame up.

A loyal and patriotic person!"

Qin Tingyun and Fu also knelt down: "Please the emperor to conduct a thorough investigation. Our Qin family will open the door for the emperor to investigate! Please give us justice!"

Guanshi Feng, Guanshi Hai, and all the servants of the Qin family also knelt down: "I beg the emperor to conduct a thorough investigation! Give justice to the Qin family, and don't let treacherous ministers take over and plot to frame the loyal and patriotic people!"
