"Yes, sir." What can Capt. Zhao do? He can only grit his teeth and bear the responsibility.
He made up nonsense: "When I was young, my friends came to a restaurant for dinner. I was slighted by their waiter, so I held a grudge."
"A few days ago, I bribed a refugee from Daqi to commit suicide at Penglai Restaurant. After that, I reported it to the official and said that there was something wrong with the water in Penglai Restaurant and he ate the man to death~~
"That's all?" Shen Yue looked at him with a sneer.
"Yes, that's it." Capt. Zhao lay on the ground without daring to raise his head.
"Then let me ask you, how did you make the silver needle appear poisonous in normal water?" Shen Yuyu stared at him and asked.
"This~~this~~" Capt. Zhao couldn't answer. He hesitated for a long time and said bravely, "Of course I can't say this. If I say it, wouldn't others learn from it?"
"If you can't tell me why, it just proves that you are taking the blame for someone else."
Zhao Baotou's words flickered and hesitated.
"You can't tell, right?" Shen Yuyu looked at the green-faced Governor Ding, "Master Governor, he is yours, could he take the blame for you?'
Governor Ding quickly denied, "I am an official of the imperial court, how could I do such a thing? Don't accuse people unjustly." Shen Yuyu approached him coldly.
"Unjustly accused? If Capt. Zhao can't tell why the silver needle changed color, then Governor Ding will have nothing to do with it."
"My Peng Lai Restaurant has overwhelmed the Zuixian Restaurant, and the owner of the Zuixian Restaurant, Zhao Gaoyi, is the brother-in-law of Governor Ding. Governor Ding has every reason to take revenge on Peng Lai Restaurant for his brother-in-law."
"Tianxia Commercial Bank is a royal property, and Governor Ding's revenge against the royal property is not tantamount to going against the royal family? Going against the emperor? I will report it to General Wei and bring you to Beijing to face the emperor.
Ding Cishi felt chills all over after hearing this. His knees went weak and he was about to kneel down. At this time, his confidant Yao Deputy next to him rushed to the ground and knelt down.
"It's none of the governor's business. It was a subordinate who was bribed by Zhao Gaoyi and did it secretly behind the governor's back."
"My subordinate wrapped a thin layer of sugar coating on the silver needle used to test for poison. The poisonous powder was stuck to the sugar coating. When it was immersed in water, the sugar coating melted and the silver needle turned black."
"Captain Zhao took his subordinate's money and wanted to take the blame for him. The subordinate did something wrong and let the governor punish him."
Shen Yuyu twitched the corners of his mouth. This deputy Yao was the right-hand man of Governor Ding. If he couldn't defeat Governor Ding, it would be better to cut off one of his arms to see if he would dare to take orders easily in the future.
Thinking of this, Shen Yuyu spoke loudly: "Deputy Yao dared to frame the royal family's industry, causing the world's commercial banks to close down. This is clearly an enemy of the royal family, and he should be punished for his crime."
Governor Ding was silent for a long time and said with difficulty, "Drag Deputy Yao down and behead him immediately."
Deputy Yao was so loyal that he was dragged along without saying a word.
After Governor Ding received the news of Deputy Yao's execution, his eyes turned red and he walked away with his sleeves.
That afternoon, the restaurants, teahouses and pastry shops of Tianxia Trading Company all resumed normal business, and business was even hotter than before.
"Ever since I tasted the dishes from Peng Lai Restaurant, I have been thinking about this taste every day. The ones made by the chef at home are simply unpalatable."
"Really? I haven't had a full meal for several days. Fortunately, the restaurant has not been closed down. Otherwise, where can I eat such delicious food?"
"It seems that doing business is difficult. The royal industry will be framed by others. Alas, don't think that prices are too high in the future."
"It doesn't matter, I'll treat you tonight. You can order whatever you want.'
Diners flocked to Peng Lai Restaurant. After the restaurant was full, there were still many people lining up outside, or asking the shopkeeper to pack the food and take it home to eat.
It took some time and thought to resolve this matter. I'm afraid the fight will have to be in the capital in the future. His Highness the Night King will almost arrive in the capital.
Once the identity of His Highness the Night King is restored, the Emperor will have the power to compete with Zhou Chen and will no longer be controlled by others. Anyone who dares to deal with Tianxia Commercial Bank again will have to think twice before doing so.
Shen Yuyu left all business matters to He Jin and told He Jin that he could reuse Shopkeeper Liao, Shopkeeper Zhao and Shopkeeper Hu, both of whom were trustworthy.
Shen Yongan also returned to Wantian County with Shen Yuyu. His wife was still in Wantian County. It would not be good to be separated for a long time.
The next day, Shen Yuyu and Shen Yongan packed up, said goodbye to everyone, boarded the boat to Wantian County, and left Lingzhou City.
Three days later in the afternoon, the two got off the boat at the Dahe Town Pier.
"Sister Yu Yu, are you going to the county or going back to Shenjia Village?" Shen Yong'an carried two bundles on his left and right shoulders and helped Shen Yu Yu off the boat.
Shen Yuyu was confused for a while, and began to think about her husband Ah Xun again. If Ah Xun was here, she would let Ah Xun make the decision. After hesitating, Shen Yuyu decided to go back to Shenjiacun first to study the scar removal cream, and then Went to the county to visit everyone. Shen Yongan handed the baggage to Shen Yuyu, and then hired a carriage in the town to go to the county.
Shen Yuyu's carriage stopped at Baohe Hall and went to Baohe Hall.
"The big boss is back." Shopkeeper Liu and Xiao Cheng came forward with smiles on their faces. Seeing Shen Yuyu alone, they asked strangely, "Huh? Where is Mr. Ji?"
Shen Yuyu returned to his own territory and felt particularly friendly when meeting his own people. He smiled and said: "He has something to do, so let's leave him alone." After saying that, he looked at Xiao Cheng and said, "Brother Xiao Cheng, cook some scallion noodles." go. '
"Okay." Xiao Cheng took Shen Yuyu's baggage with bright eyes, and then led her to the backyard.
After eating a bowl of fragrant scallion noodles at Baohe Hall, Shen Yuyu drove the carriage back to Shenjia Village.
In early autumn, the sun is shining brightly, and the wind blowing brings the coolness of autumn, which is very refreshing.
The second-season potatoes on both sides of the avenue are growing lush and lovable, and the scenery of the fields is endlessly beautiful.
As soon as I entered Shenjia Village, I met a few familiar faces. Mrs. Wang, Yufen, Daohua, mother-in-law and daughter-in-law emerged from the potato field carrying hoes.
The three mothers spent all their money, but they became harmonious and stopped making peace and started living together again.
"Hey, isn't this Miss Shen? She's back?" Mrs. Wang looked at Shen Yuyu half-heartedly, "Where is your husband-in-law Ji Xun? Why didn't he come back with you?"
Shen Yuyu didn't want to talk to them at first, but when she thought about what they would say to her Ah Xun at the wellhead if she didn't explain, she explained: "My husband has gone to Beijing and will be back soon.'
"Pfft~~" Yufen sneered, "Look? What a smart person? He was abandoned by a man and he still spoke so confidently."
"That's right." Daohua also answered softly, "My natal brother just came back from Lingzhou City. Ji Xun disappeared many days ago and suddenly left her behind."
When Mrs. Wang heard that Shen Yuyu had been abandoned by Ji Xun, she felt relieved. She smiled happily and said, "Girl Shen, although you are no longer related to Nai, you were raised by Nai. Nai really can't bear to see you." Be a widow. “
"The son of Liu Wangcai's family in the neighboring village is also lame and has scars on his face. He is almost as ugly as Ji Xun. Why don't you recruit him to be your son-in-law? Can I go and match you up?'
