When the maids next to him saw this, they couldn't help but turn their heads and look at Xu Jie.

Hai Rui and Wang Honghai had known Wu Kang's purpose, so they turned their heads and looked at Xu Jie curiously, but they didn't know how this old fox in the officialdom would deal with it.

Xu Jie knew that his beloved son could not have anything to do, and he could not lose his integrity in his later years. He immediately responded with a dark face: "Commander Wu, you have misled me a lot about the death of Mr. Wu that year. Now, you have taken advantage of the position.

If you use public notice to my Xu family, aren’t you afraid that I will report to the emperor to sue you?”

Although Wang Honghai guessed that Xu Jie would definitely not let Xu Ying be taken away by Wu Kang, he could not help but look at Wu Kang worriedly when he saw Xu Jie throwing out this convincing reason.

"Ge Lao Xu, let alone this governor is doing things according to the regulations this time. Even if this matter is caused by the emperor, the emperor will not shelter your dam and fields, right?" Wu Kang naturally did not admit that he was in revenge.

, seemingly authentic.

For this moment, he had been waiting for too long. Since taking over the Nanzhen Fushi, he had only one wish in his heart. After some planning, he finally saw the dawn of victory.

Now that he was about to take Xu Ying back to the Nanzhen Fu Office for interrogation, he naturally would not retreat at all.

"Commander Wu, do you accused my son of destroying the dike and flooding the fields? Is there any evidence?" Xu Jie knew that he could not bear this crime, so he scolded loudly.

Unlike the accusation of "occupying land and acres", this "destruction of dikes and flooding of fields" can be regarded as a serious crime that cannot be tolerated by nature. Such evil deeds will definitely be cursed by all people in the world.

Once it is confirmed that Xu Ying is the mastermind behind the destruction and flooding of the fields, not only will Xu Ying be pushed to the guillotine, but Xu Jie will also be implicated in this matter.

Wu Kang's mouth raised slightly, staring at Xu Jie with some support and asked, "Gei Xu, I wonder if you know Xu Guangnian?"

"He is my clan brother!" Xu Jie's heart skipped a beat, but he answered calmly.

Hai Rui and Wang Honghai knew that Xu Guangnian had bitten Xu Ying, so he turned his head silently and looked at Xu Jie, but wanted to see how Xu Jie would defend himself.

Although they all knew that Xu Ying was a spoiled young man since childhood, and they also knew that the origin of the Xu family's hundreds of thousands of acres of land must have some unclean means, this act of destroying the dike and flooding the fields really shocked them, even if it was

A joke by Xu Ying after drinking.

Wu Kang faced Xu Jie's gaze and said with a little chill: "Her Master Xu, Xu Guangnian has confessed, and this matter is precisely because of Xu Ying's instructions!"

this……

When Xu Fan heard this conclusion, he turned his head and looked at his younger brother in shock.

Although he knew that this younger brother was pretending to be well-behaved in front of his father and did ten times more evil than him, he never expected that Xu Ying would do such a bad thing.

Destroying the dike and flooding the fields is certainly a shortcut for the Xu family to make profits, but this behavior is unreasonable, not to mention that the Baiheba dam broke the dike and drowned hundreds of villagers in Baihe Village.

Once this matter is confirmed, not to mention that Xu Ying is going to be beheaded, the Xu family may face a house raid, and the strong family business that has been hard-working to be built will be in vain.

When Xu Ying heard that Xu Guangnian really confessed to him, she cried and asked for help, "Dad, save me!"

Huh?

When Hai Rui and Wang Honghai saw that Xu Ying was not calling for help, but asking Xu Jie for help, they couldn't help but exchange a glance in their hearts, and there was an answer in their hearts.

Xu Jie saw what his beloved youngest son did, and suddenly felt a sense of resentment. Even if he wanted to seize more land for his family, he had to pay attention to the aftermath, and he could not step on that.

It's enough to destroy the red line of the whole family.

But his beloved third son stepped on the red line and was caught by Wu Kang.

Xu Jie knew that this crime could not be taken down, so he faced Wu Kang's gaze and said, "Although Xu Guangnian is my clan's brother, he may not have no grudges with my Xu family! Commander Wu, if you don't go and ask him why he slandered me.

The Xu family hurried to capture Wuer, but they didn't know what they meant?"

"This commander came to ask Mr. Xu Ying to go back to investigate after he had some evidence. Could it be that Master Xu would stop him?" Wu Kang also made up his mind to capture Xu Ying back to the Nanzhen Fushi, which seemed to be tit-for-tat.

.

Xu Jie knew that he could not compromise at this time, and seemed to be firm and firm: "If there is no other evidence, you cannot take my son to the Nanzhen Fushi!"

"Gemaster Xu, are you really going to stop our Nanzhen Fushi Office from handling the case?" Wu Kang didn't expect how Xu Jie would protect Xu Ying, so he squinted his eyes and questioned.

As an old man in the officialdom, Xu Jie naturally would not do anything to give him a handle, so he coldly showed his reason and said: "Do you Jinyiwei have done less trouble? Now I only hear someone who resents the Xu family.

With one side of the story, I wanted to take my son back to the Nanzhen Fushi. I definitely wouldn't agree!"

When Butler Xu saw that the situation was not right, he immediately attracted hundreds of guards and looked at the Jinyiwei headed by Wu Kang.

The Xu family's family has a great family. Because they robbed a large amount of wealth from Songjiang Prefecture into their own hands, many people went bankrupt, so there are many poor families who sold their children as slaves.

Today, the Xu family, as the richest family in the Ming Dynasty, has reached a thousand slaves alone. In addition, Xu Jie's identity and status are enough to protect Xu Ying.

Wu Kang frowned slightly, and found that he had underestimated the old fox. Although he arranged for some people to be outside the door, he really wanted to break into the Xu Mansion and take the people away, which made him even more convinced the accusation that the Nanzhen Fushishi Qu had made a move.

But I have to admit that with my very ordinary wisdom, I can't beat this old fox.

Wang Honghai seemed to have guessed this situation long ago, but he smiled and broke the deadlock and said, "If Master Xu thought that Mr. Xu was not good to hand it over to the Nanzhen Fushi, but he didn't know how to hand it over to our Songjiang Prefecture Office?"

Huh?

When Xu Jie heard Wang Honghai suddenly throwing this proposal, he couldn't help but turn his head and look at Wang Honghai. The Tongzhi of Songjiang Prefecture had a faint shadow of Lin Weiran.

Hai Rui felt a little moved and then said, "Gei Xu, the noble master is now suspected of destroying the dike and flooding the fields. Even if you are unwilling to hand it over to the Nanzhen Fu Office for trial, our government will definitely not sit idly by.

Please ask our mansion to take Xu Ying back to the mansion!”

Such a big case occurred under the jurisdiction, if Wu Kang had not planned to bypass the Songjiang Prefecture, his dignified Songjiang Prefecture would not have stood by.

Now that things have reached a deadlock, neither Xu Jie nor Wu Kang wanted to give in, it is undoubtedly his best opportunity to intervene. Songjiang Prefecture will personally investigate the case of destroying the dike and flooding the fields.

Although Wu Kang wanted to take Xu Ying back to the Nanzhen Fushi, it was difficult to take the people away in the current situation. The Songjiang Prefecture Office made him feel at ease and couldn't help but turn his eyes to Xu Jie.

Although Xu Jie really wanted to protect Xu Ying, it was difficult for Songjiang Prefecture to stop him. After some weighing, he nodded and agreed and said, "Okay, this case will be left to your Songjiang Prefecture Office for trial. I believe

The prefect Hai can give my Xu family a cleansing!”

"I can only guarantee that I will handle it impartially!" Hai Rui had his own principle of being an official, but he did not shelter or favored the Xu family, but responded in a deep voice.

Seeing that this arrangement was recognized by both parties, Wang Honghai shook his eyes and the two yamen soldiers asked Xu Ying from the Jinyiwei.

Although Xu Ying escaped the prison of Nanzhen Fushi, she was just unable to be happy to see that she fell into the claws of Songjiang Prefecture.

At this moment, he felt quite regretful. He shouldn't have spoken loudly after drinking, nor did he make a mistake and did not deal with the relevant people completely.

Huh?

It was just as Xu Fan looked around, but Hai Rui was staring at him tightly, and he couldn't help but be slightly stunned. He thought that there were grains of rice on his face, and he quickly touched it with his hand.

"Xu Fan, you ordered your family slave to destroy the miserable master Li Si. Please go back to the government office to explain it clearly!" Hai Rui actually came for Xu Fan this time, so he said seriously.

After Xu Fan returned to Songjiang Mansion, he did a lot of evil deeds.

Although he did not attack Zhang Daniu, he only brought evil slaves to "learning" some people who asked for land from the Xu family, and even cut off people's hands and feet.

"You want to lock me?" Xu Fan looked at the two yamen servants who stepped forward and pointed at his nose in shock and asked.

Hai Rui never had any favors in his eyes, and he seemed very rude: "This matter has already been full of evidence and physical evidence. Don't defend yourself again and take it away!"

However, he did not give much explanation and immediately ordered two yamen to come forward to take Xu Fansuo and prepare to take the high-ranking Shaoqing of the Taichang Temple back to the prison of the mansion.

Xu Jie saw this scene in his eyes. His unprecedented tolerance of forbearance was challenged at this moment, and his fingers seemed to be able to crush the wine glass in his hand.

Xu Fan was taken up by the yamen of Songjiang Prefecture, but he couldn't help asking Xu Jie for help, "Dad, save me!"

Butler Xu led hundreds of guards to see Xu Fan being arrested by the yamen staff of Songjiang Government, but he couldn't help but look at Xu Jie, the head of the family.

"Master Hai, I, Mr. Xu, will write down your actions today!" Xu Jie did not attack in the end and said with a gloomy look.

Hai Rui even dared to scold Jiajing, but how could he be afraid of Xu Jie's threat? He bowed to Xu Jie and said, "All follow your wishes, I'll say goodbye!"

As he said that, he led the yamen to escort Xu Ying and Xu Fan away.

Wang Honghai looked at Xu Jie with a gloomy face, thinking that he and Hai Rui came to attend the family dinner and brought their two sons, and looked a little embarrassed and bowed: "Gei Xu, please say goodbye!"

Wu Kang glanced at Xu Jie with a gloomy face indifferently, but the hatred in his heart did not diminish at all, so he took his subordinates to leave with Hai Rui.

"Master, what should I do now?" Butler Xu looked at Xu Fan and Xu Ying being taken away by Hai Rui under his nose, and asked in a hurry like an ant in a pit.

Xu Jie stared at Wu Kang's back as he left, knowing that this matter was not simply said: "Wu Kang is in charge of the Nanzhen Fushi. Why hasn't anyone come to report on this matter?"

"I don't know this, maybe I don't think it's important!" Butler Xu's mouth was filled with a hint of bitterness. He first shook his head gently, and then speculated.

A small left commander of the Nanjing Jinyiwei was naturally not an important matter. It was just that Wu Kang's fierce attack today gave Hai Rui an opportunity to take advantage of it.

"This matter is not important? Wu Kang wants our Xu family's life!" Xu Jie said with a cruel smile on his face and he said in a complicated mood.

Butler Xu had never seen Xu Jie like this, so he swallowed and spitted, "He is a small commander of the Nanjing Jinyiwei, why don't he be so capable, right?"

"Of course he doesn't have this ability, but the person behind him is... a monster!" Xu Jie sighed lightly and said with great resentment.

What he could fear in this world was never Hai Rui who only knew how to handle it impartially, but Lin Weiran, who was as wise as a demon.

Now Wu Kang is arranged as the commander of the Nanjing Fufu Department, and even found out that Xu Ying destroyed the dike and flooded the fields, which is simply to kill all the Xu family.

Inadvertently, Lin Weiran, who was thousands of miles away, had already shown his fangs, but he wanted to tear his Xu family to pieces.

When Mr. Xu knew the person Xu Jie was referring to, he also saw an invisible big hand approaching the capital. He couldn't help but ask with concern: "Master, what should I do now?"

"This matter is no longer something that Songjiang Mansion can solve by itself! Now you send someone to send letters to the capital and bring the silver to you. They should protect me no matter how hard it is!" Xu Jie knew that the matter was no longer acceptable.

Mastering means making decisions.

Although Mr. Xu was not sure, he nodded in cooperation and said, "This is natural! Not to mention that your disciple Zhang Ju is in the Pavilion, you have also promoted the current chief assistant Li Chunfang. They both have to help you.

!”

Xu Jie didn't say much anymore. Thinking that he had made a move earlier, he returned to the study and wrote several letters, and then ordered a reliable and capable slave to go north.

Sometimes he had to sigh in his heart! If there was no such person as Lin Qingran in the world, then his life would be very comfortable, instead of being controlled everywhere like he is now, and he would encounter such a serious crisis.

This time, in addition to asking Zhang Juzheng to try to get Hai Rui away, he did not intend to keep Wang Honghai. However, he found that Wang Honghai had already obtained some of Lin Junran's true teachings and had to try to get him elsewhere.

When things got to this point, he also made the worst plan.

Even if you really have to return hundreds of thousands of acres of fertile land you have worked hard to get, you have to hide the destruction and flooding of the land. Otherwise, not only will your Xu family be confiscated, but you will probably be implicated and demoted as the people.
