Not long after, the yamen carried the items into the hall.

Xu Ji brought a lot of items this time. In addition to some clothes and exquisite utensils, he also had two large boxes of gold, silver and jewelry. This thing that reached tens of thousands of taels was undoubtedly eye-catching.

When Lin Ran saw the two large boxes of gold and silver that were opened, he frowned slightly and asked in confusion at the iron shop responsible for escorting: "These two large boxes are also things that Lord Xu carried?"

"Yes, it's the one I'm carrying!" Xu Ji responded proudly with his hands behind his back, and then asked back: "We have always had bandits in western Guangdong. This patrol was entrusted by a friend to help him send him to Guangzhou Prefecture. Does Lin Futai think there is anything wrong?"

If a person doesn't even want his face, he will be invincible in the world. Xu Ji is obviously not aware of himself. It is inappropriate to carry these two boxes of gold and silver, but at this time he can still be so righteous and use such seemingly reasonable excuses to make excuses.

"Of course there is nothing wrong!" Lin Ran answered lightly, and Xu Ji thought to himself, "You guy knows the truth." Then Lin Ran ordered: "You can search carefully to see if the official seal is missing somewhere?"

Xu Ji sneered in his heart, how could he not see through this kid's trick? At this time, he should take "omittedness" as the reason and return his official seal, but he would not give up.

Sure enough, after just a while, I heard the yamen shout happily: "Finished."

Xu Ji's face immediately felt a look of joy, and he asked for his reputation and planned to attack the official seal. As long as he blamed him, he would swallow the words that had spitted into his throat, as if he had eaten a hundred flies.

But I saw a yamen officer first pulled out a pile of gold from the box full of gold bars, and then took out an official seal.

Boom!

Xu Ji was struck by lightning and stood on the spot.

Lin Ran took the official seal from the yachae, glanced at the front of the official seal, and then handed it to Xu Ji with a smile, "Mr. Xu, it seems that the official is right. You are really careless. You actually placed the official seal and this pile of gold bars in the box. No wonder you couldn't find it at the beginning!"

"You..." Xu Ji did not reach out to take the official seal, but stared at Lin Ran tightly with his eyes, as if he wanted to kill the other party with his eyes.

Although the official seal was lost and regained, it would be better to lose it. When the gold bar box he carried was found? Once this matter was promoted, his official voice would almost be destroyed.

What is the most important thing about the inspection? Of course, it is that one is honest and one is not upright, so why should one monitor local officials?

He could say to Lin Ran lightly: There are many bandits in western Guangdong, and these two boxes of gold and silver are carried for friends. But can he explain this to all the officials in Guangdong? Can he say this to officials in the world?

Once this matter is promoted, everyone's focus will inevitably be on these two boxes of gold and silver. Is he, the inspector, greedy?

Not to mention that he is really not clean, even if he is clean, he will be stained with darkness. Even if he has a hundred mouths, he will not be able to block those malicious speculations and the major political enemy.

For a moment, he wanted to pounce on and strangle the kid to death. Everything was clearly dominated by this kid. He thought it was a "suspended military plan" by the other party, but he didn't expect it would be a "serial plan". This kid actually wanted to kill him.

Lin Ran turned a blind eye to his angry face, and kept a smile and handed back the official seal, saying, "The official seal is of great importance. Does Lord Xu really want it?"

"You are deliberately framed!" Xu Ji reached out to take the official seal, but he shouted furiously.

Lin Ran immediately raised his face and said, "Mr. Xu lost his official seal first, and our mansion will not spare any effort to find it back. If Mr. Xu wants me to slander me like this, then we will write to the court and let the court judge."

"You... do you know that you are playing with fire? Do you know the consequences of offending the Xu party!" Xu Ji looked at Lin Ran for a moment, then gritted his teeth and warned.

Naturally, he did not dare to write a letter to the court to judge with Lin Ran, nor even dared to let the matter be publicized. But he looked down on Lin Ran, a young man, from the bottom of his heart, so he naturally would not beg Lin Ran, and chose to threaten him.

"I have no intention of offending anyone!" Lin Ran replied in a deep voice, then emphasized: "This mansion has always been: if no one offends me, I will not offend anyone! If it offends me, then this mansion will return twice!"

"So, are you really going to go against Xu Dang?" Xu Ji didn't expect that the young man was so tough, so he narrowed his eyes and asked.

Lin Ran looked at him contemptuously and said lightly: "You are far from representing Xu Dang! Even if all this happens now is criticized by Mr. Xu, he will not dare to accuse me of Lin. When you arrest Zhao Yong and go to prison, you should have thought that this day would come!"

Lin Ran naturally would not offend Xu Dang easily, and Xu Ji obviously couldn't represent Xu Dang. At this moment, he was just pretending to be a tiger's power. How could he retreat easily?

This is indeed the case. Even if Xu Jie attaches great importance to Xu Ji, Xu Jie cannot help Xu Ji completely in this matter.

After all, he is not a cat or a dog. He is an unprecedented Wen Kui. He is the youngest prefect and military prefecture in the Ming Dynasty, and he is also the future son-in-law of Wu Shan, the Minister of Rites of the Ministry of Rites.

"You... are so cruel!" Xu Ji was silent for a moment, and then said angrily.

If he really makes sense, he was indeed the first to attack Lin Ran, but he was blamed for counterattacking him. Although the other party's methods seemed despicable and ruthless, what kind of noble words were there in this officialdom?

As for his move out of the Xu Party, he is indeed pretending to be a powerful figure. It is true that he is one of the spokespersons of the Xu Party in Guangdong, but this time he is more about seeking personal interests, and he has little to do with the Xu Party itself.

Even if he finds his uncle, he will probably receive punishment and will not stand up for him. From the beginning, he should not be despised by Lin Ran at all, or even provoke Lin Ran. This result was actually caused by him.

But he was extremely unwilling to give up. He is now the inspector of Guangdong and his future is bright.

Hu Zongxian was just Zhao Wenhua, the godson of Yan Song, who could go from the inspector to the governor, and then the most powerful governor of Zhejiang. His backer was the second assistant of the dynasty, and he should be the governor of Guangdong and Guangxi.

Lin Ran shrugged disapprovingly in the face of his accusation, and then gave a stern order to expel guests, saying, "Mr. Xu has been suffering in recent days. Please rest at Yin Hotel!"

After saying that, Lin Ran did not continue to stay here, but turned around and left the three halls, leaving behind a betrayal Xu Xunzhang and two boxes of dazzling gold and silver.
