Fang Zheng let out a long sigh and looked at the group of people in the room.

"The doctor is here, leave one person to watch, and everyone else should go out."

"Xie Xian, come with me."

Fang Zheng turned around and went out, finding another small room with Xie Xian.

As soon as he entered the house, Xie Xian immediately asked: "Master, what happened? Did he commit suicide out of fear of crime?"

Fang Zheng shook his head and said: "No, I asked him how much money he had embezzled and if there was anyone else behind it, but I didn't know that he bit his tongue and committed suicide after that."

Xie Xian was a little confused and said: "There is no reason? He will die sooner or later, why should he still suffer this kind of torture?"

"Yeah, I can't figure it out either. Looking at this situation, there must be someone behind it."

"Who can be so capable of making the head of a government commit suicide out of fear of crime? This person is probably in the court... It seems that we have caused a big trouble!"

Fang Zhengyi was also confused. Which boss had he offended?

"You said... what leverage can he have in the hands of the people behind the scenes?"

Xie Xian lowered his eyelids and thought carefully.

Suddenly he said: "This person is destined to die no matter what, at least he belongs to the Yi tribe!"

"For him to be so fearless and keep secret, the person behind the scenes must have the ability to protect his family."

"Perhaps the people behind the scenes have captured his children and other relatives."

Fang Zheng suddenly realized it and said, "Hey! That makes sense! Why didn't I think of that?"

Xie Xianxiao raised his head and sighed: "That's because I don't have children!"

"You will know when you have a child. If my son were in the hands of others, I would be willing to bite my tongue and kill myself to save his life!"

"What a pitiful parent. Why, do you miss your son?" Fang Zheng looked at Xie Xian with a smile.

Xie Xian nodded and said, "Yes, I've been out for a few months, so I definitely want to."

"But there's nothing to worry about. The county eats well and sleeps well."

As soon as Fang Zheng walked to the table and poured him a cup of tea: "There is nothing to do now. The remaining time is to find ways to provide disaster relief. If you feel homesick, you can go back at any time."

Xie Xian hesitated and said, "There's no need to go back. The master is in urgent need of manpower. Well, I just have something to ask you... Did you have someone kidnap me when I went to Beijing to take the exam?"

Fang Zheng was stunned for a moment, and then burst into laughter.

After laughing, he said in surprise: "You just know!? How many years have you been staying in the county? Why, do you have resentment in your heart?"

Xie Xian murmured: "That's not true, I just want to know. It would be a lie to say that I have no regrets... Who among scholars doesn't want to be an official?"

After he finished speaking, Fang Zhengyi immediately took off his official uniform.

"Come on, come on, let me wear these clothes for you, how about it?"

"If you think the official is not old enough, I will take off Liu Xun's clothes. The prefect will be enough!"

Xie Xian looked at the official uniform handed over by Fang Zheng and licked his lips: "Isn't this good, sir."

Fang Zheng didn't care at all: "There's nothing wrong with it! In two days, you can wear this official uniform and go to the city tower in person to kill those traitorous officials."

"Ah...this? If people knew this..."

"It doesn't matter, I will explain it to Your Majesty!"

Fang Zhengyi was embarrassed to say that he was throwing sand into the porridge of victims every day some time ago, so many people may know him.

If I were to climb the tower in person and be recognized by the victims, I'm afraid it would have the opposite effect.

"That's it! Come on, put on your official uniform and let me see."

Xie Xian nodded sharply, then took Fang Zhengyi's official uniform and put it on.

It's just that Fang Zhengyi is taller than him, so the clothes seem a lot too big and don't fit well.

However, Xie Xian was still extremely satisfied and kept looking at himself from side to side.

Nowadays, wearing official uniform once can be considered as a dream come true...

"Thank you sir!"

Fang Zheng waved his hand: "It's just a small matter. Come on, follow me to interrogate Liu Xun's bad behavior again."

The two then arrived at the room where Wei Shan was being held. At this time, Wei Shan's eyes were blank and he was slumped on the bed with his crotch covered, not knowing what he was thinking.

When Fang Zheng arrived, he immediately trembled all over.

"Fang...Master Fang."

After saying that, he saw Xie Xian wearing official uniform, pointed at Xie Xian and said in surprise: "You...it turns out that you are the general judge!?"

Xie Xian's face turned red and he looked at Fang Zhengyi.

Fang Zhengyi chuckled: "Stop talking nonsense, I'm here to judge you."

Weishan was silent for a while: "Where is Lord Liu? You are rebelling! I want to see Lord Liu!"

"Oh, Liu Xun is about to die. He committed suicide out of fear of guilt and is still rescuing him. All the evidence of his crime is in my hands!"

"Cooperate with me honestly, and I will not only keep you alive, but I will also find someone to help you treat your illness and your legs."

"Let me ask you, how much money did Liu Xun embezzle? Is there anyone behind him?"

"I want to see Mr. Liu." Wei Shan lowered his head and said only this sentence.

As soon as Fang Zheng agreed, he called Zhang Biao and carried Wei Shan around Liu Xun's room.

At this time, Wei Shan completely accepted his fate, lying on the bed unconsciously, muttering: "Ask me...but what I know is limited, you said you would protect my life...you swear, you can't kill me."

..."

Fang Zhengyi said calmly: "I never lie to others. If you cooperate honestly, I swear I will never kill you."

"You can say it now."

Wei Shan grabbed the quilt with both hands and whispered: "...Liu Xun does have a backer behind him, but I don't know who he is."

"This person has always been in direct contact with Liu Xun."

"As for how much money he embezzled, I don't know. I only know that he regularly transports a batch of silver to the capital."

"How could you not know? Don't there be accounts for every escort?"

Wei Shan shook his head: "No! Liu Xun kept it all in his heart. Every time he escorted money, he personally took charge of it. He could remember clearly how much money came in and out of the bank."

Fang Zheng did not doubt what Wei Shan said. Being a prefect was already an elite among scholars.

This group of people can fight their way out of the imperial examination with thousands of troops, and they are all knowledgeable and knowledgeable people with superb memory.

He continued to ask: "When was the last delivery and how much was delivered?"

"The last time was a day or two before the Lord came. I don't know the exact amount. I only know that the situation was very special. A lot of money was transported...almost most of the money in the treasury was transported away.

"

"And he specifically asked Liu Xun's young master to escort him personally."

"The 50,000 taels of silver I gave to Mr. Fang later were already the only silver left in the house."

Xie Xian and Fang Zheng looked at each other and it was true!

But Fang Zhengyi felt something was a little weird.

Why was the timing so perfect? ​​It was a bit strange that he sent all the money to the capital and took away Liu Xun's son before he took office.

There are obviously 20,000 shi of grain sent to Jianjiang from the capital, and we can still make a lot of money. Why did the other party close the network at this time?

Could it be that the other party knows fortune telling and knows that he wants to fight corruption?

I never even thought of doing this before I came here!

Coincidence...definitely a coincidence.

Fang Zhengyi didn't bother to think about it anymore, and just comforted himself, saying that he would leave the rest of the matter to the emperor to deal with later.
Chapter completed!
