Chapter 160 Slander

On the deck on the boat building, there was a very sophisticated large table, with more than a dozen beautiful maids serving around the table. At this time, three people were drinking and chatting. When Zhu Yuchen and others arrived at the boat building, the three people then swept their eyes.

Yang Ning also glanced at the three of them at this moment.

The person facing me was an old acquaintance, Dou Lianzhong, the son of the Minister of Revenue. The man in the left hand had just seen him before, but he was Ding Yitu, the head of the Xuri Escort Agency. The man in the right hand was wearing a purple brocade fur and a white fox fur hat. He was about thirty years old and exuded a sense of wealth and honor all over his body.

Dou Lianzhong had already swept over Zhu Yuchen and others with a sneer. When he saw Yang Ning, he was stunned for a moment, and his face changed slightly.

Yang Ning's eyes did not stare at the three people on the table at this time. Instead, through the three people, he saw a man facing the river side of the boat not far away, with his back facing everyone, with black hair as dark as ink, and no hat, and he couldn't see the man's face clearly. However, the man was not tall and the boat side had reached his chest, and he seemed to be a twelve or thirteen-year-old child.

Zhu Yuchen and others glanced at each other, finally took a step forward, bowed and said, "I wonder who wants to see us?"

Dou Lianzhong sneered and said, "You are Zhu Yuchen?"

"It's Zhu Yuchen." Zhu Yuchen glanced at the man wearing purple brocade fur and smiled, "Isn't this Grand Master Jiang? I haven't seen him for many years, so I've always been good?"

Yang Ning thought to himself that this man was indeed Jiang Suiyun from Donghai.

Zhu Yuchen and Jiang Suiyun are both wealthy merchants in Dachu. It is reasonable to know each other.

Jiang Suiyun just smiled faintly and didn't say anything. Obviously, he didn't take Jiang Suiyun seriously.

Chen Mukuan couldn't help but say, "You're so arrogant. You're so arrogant. What does it mean to bring us here?"

Jiang Suiyun smiled faintly and said, "Chen Mukuan, you haven't seen each other for many years. Your temper has not changed yet. You are still so reckless and impatient. Who told you that it was Jiang who asked you to come over?"

"It's not your idea, who is that?" Chen Mukuan said loudly: "If you have anything, hurry up and say that after Brother Zhu held the flowers, he has produced the most prizes now. We are not in a hurry. Brother Zhu is still in a hurry to be Shen Jiaonu's guest in the curtain, hahaha..."

"I'm afraid that the guest who enters the curtain will not be able to be a corpse that enters the coffin." Dou Lianzhong said in a deep voice: "You guys are so brave. How dare you show off your might in the capital? Whose power is it that you rely on?"

Zhu Yuchen frowned and said, "We don't understand what this young master said. Everyone should choose the best choice of the queen, but who needs to rely on?"

Dou Lianzhong's eyes looked like a knife and said lightly: "It is worthy of being the leader of the Zhu family in Hangzhou. He is really brave and dares to talk to me like this."

Jiang Suiyun picked up a wine cup and said leisurely: "I'm afraid I don't know you. This is Mr. Dou, the father of Mr. Dou, and Mr. Dou's minister, is Mr. Dou!"

As soon as these words came out, Zhu Yuchen and others were like five thunders slamming their heads, and their faces were instantly gone.

The Ministry of Revenue is in charge of the world's wealth. Zhu Yuchen and others are all merchants. Although they are all wealthy, they are definitely like grandsons in front of the Ministry of Revenue.

For these wealthy local gentry, they go to the capital every year, mainly to find officials from the Ministry of Revenue and to secretly respect them. The officials found are only middle and low-level officials of the Ministry of Revenue, and it is difficult to have the opportunity to contact senior officials of the Ministry of Revenue. As for officials from the Ministry of Revenue, even wealthy people like the Zhu family are actually difficult to grasp.

They never expected that the person in front of them would be the son of the Minister of Revenue.

Chen Mukuan was a little tough before, but his face was pale and his forehead was sweating even more.

Zhu Yuchen reluctantly smiled and said, "It turned out to be... it turned out to be Mr. Dou, who is so respectful." However, he regretted it in his heart, thinking that he had known that Jiang Suiyun had already been mixed with the Dou family, and that he would not have wade into this muddy water no matter what, and it was impossible to deal with it now.

Seeing Zhu Yuchen and others surrender, Dou Lianzhong glanced at Yang Ning, and showed a smug look in his eyes. He slowly stood up, carried his hands on his back, walked past several people, and said lightly: "What do you mean by spending a lot of money just now? Showing your wealth? My Great Chu once resisted foreign invasions, and consumed countless money, grain, and soldiers, but you did not see you contribute to the country. Do you have no Great Chu in your heart at all?"

Zhu Yuchen and others couldn't help but think, didn't Jiang Suiyun spend a lot of money just now, and this battle of wealth was initiated by Jiang Suiyun. When the country was in trouble, he didn't hear that the Jiang family generously donated money, so why didn't he talk about the Jiang family? But at this time, how dare he argue with the young master of the Minister of the Ministry of Revenue? He just lowered his head and did not dare to speak.

"Oh, Brother Yuan is here too?" Dou Lianzhong walked up to Yuan Rong, pretending to have just seen it, and smiled and said, "Why are you mingling with these people?"

Yuan Rong smiled faintly and said, "These are from afar and are familiar with me, so they have a few glasses of wine together. Mr. Dou, the so-called "unknowledgeable people are not guilty. I think it's better to let them leave and don't worry too much."

"Brother Yuan is wrong." Dou Lianzhong sneered: "These people are together and openly show off on the Qinhuai River. This wind cannot be long. I want to check, are there any conspiracy behind them?" His eyes fell on Qiu Fang and asked: "Who are you?"

Qiu Fang was quite calm at this time and bowed: "I'm here to Qiu Fang!"

"Qiu Fang?" Dou Lianzhong said: "I have never heard of this name. I don't seem to be like the people from Hangzhou Prefecture when you hear your accent."

But when he saw Jiang Suiyun, he smiled and said, "Young Master Dou, this person's accent is the Liaodong accent, Qiu Fang... If I remember correctly, the Liaodong santhemum king is also surnamed Qiu, and this Qiu Fang should have some connection with the Liaodong santhemum king!"

Dou Lianzhong was excited as if he had caught some handle and shouted: "You... are you from Liaodong? That's... that's Northern Han!"

Qiu Fang knew that he could not hide it, so he nodded and said, "The King of Liaodong Shen is his grandfather."

"Yes, there are two top-quality old ginseng in the lottery that Zhu Yuchen gave just now. Of course, you sent it out in the name of Zhu Yuchen." Dou Lianzhong shook like a mouse being stepped on with his tail. He glanced at Yang Ning from the corner of his eyes and continued, "Zhu Yuchen, I just think something is wrong with you. It turns out that you are going to collude with the Northern Han people to rebel."

This big hat weighs more than a thousand pounds. Zhu Yuchen and others all had pale faces and had already argued: "Young Master Dou, that's not the case. Although Brother Qiu is from the Northern Han Dynasty, he is just a businessman. The two countries have never banned business dealings among the people. We are just business partners and have no intention of rebellion."

"Don't have the intention to rebel?" Dou Lianzhong sneered: "Why should I collude with the Northern Han people without the intention to rebel? Hehe, this surnamed Qiu must be a spy from the Northern Han people, but he just used the identity of a merchant as a cover. You are his accomplices." He shouted: "Come, arrest them all."

At this moment, I heard a long sigh, and then I heard a voice saying, "Dou Lianzhong, are you tired? You jump up and down, what do you want to do?"

Amid the words, Yang Ning had already walked out.

Dou Lianzhong's face changed slightly, but immediately raised his hand and pointed at Yang Ning and said, "Qinning, don't be arrogant, you are also their accomplice."

"Who are you?" Yang Ning stared at Dou Lianzhong and asked.

Dou Lianzhong was stunned. At this time, Jiang Suiyun had already come over with his hands on his back. He obviously didn't know Yang Ning, but just smiled and said, "Didn't you hear clearly? This is the young master of the Minister of the Ministry of Revenue!"

"It turns out to be the son of the Minister of the Ministry of Revenue." Yang Ning looked at Jiang Suiyun, "Who are you?"

Jiang Suiyun frowned and said nothing.

Dou Lianzhong actually didn't know what Yang Ning sold in the gourd, and frowned and said, "What tricks do you want to play?"

"Nothing to do anything," Yang Ning said: "You are shouting here. Those who don't know think you are the official of the Ministry of Justice. Mr. Dou, of course I know that you are the son of the Minister of the Ministry of Revenue. I want to ask, besides this identity, what other identity do you have? Is the Minister of Justice? The Minister of Justice? The Minister of the Ministry of Justice? The Prefect of Kyoto? Oh, by the way, or a member of the Shenhou Mansion? None of them? Then what kind of official status are you?"

Dou Lianzhong opened his mouth but did not make any sound.

"And you, Jiang Suiyun, you are the eldest son of the Jiang family. What is your identity besides that?" Yang Ning stared at Jiang Suiyun, his eyes like a knife, "What rank are you?"

Jiang Suiyun frowned and said, "I don't have an official position."

"So you are just a rich young man." Yang Ning laughed, "Dou Lianzhong, you don't have an official position, what is the right to shout here? Are you using your father's identity to show off? Well, let's go to the emperor now and ask clearly whether a son of the Minister of Revenue who has no official position is qualified to bring people to interrogate on the street."

Dou Lianzhong was suddenly relieved after being said by Yang Ning, and he sneered: "I am a citizen of Da Chu. I found a spy, so naturally... I am qualified to ask. Not only me, but any citizen of Da Chu has the qualification to protect his country."

"You said they are robbers and spies, so what is the evidence?" Yang Ning stretched out his hand, "Show me the evidence. If it is true, I will be the first to arrest these guys."

Dou Lianzhong was stared at Yang Ning's blade-like eyes, and felt uncomfortable all over, but he still said, "He...he is from the Northern Han Dynasty, of course...!"

"Fuck!" Yang Ning immediately interrupted, "As long as you are a Northern Han, you are a spy? Did you say it yourself or someone else teach you? I have never heard that the two countries prohibit trade. Qiu Fang is indeed a Northern Han, but if the Northern Han merchants do business with our Da Chu, they are spies. Do you want to cut off the trade between the two countries? Even the imperial court has not banned it, but you are here to disrupt the national policy. Do you know that your surname is Dou? "
