When Feng Jiuxiao appeared in front of Mrs. Zhang, Mrs. Zhang was really surprised!
The person who came was so young!
Can you be eighteen years old?
Feng Jiuxiao took the lead in clasping his fists and said, "My younger generation, Long Jiu, has met Mr. Zhang!"
Old Master Zhang immediately stood up and fisted: "I wonder what kind of expensive Master Long is doing? Please sit down!" He said, pointing to the seat on the other side of the tea table, and then said to the burly man: "Zhang Biao, come on tea!"
Zhang Biao immediately waved to the maid outside the door and gestured to serve tea. The maid immediately nodded and turned around to prepare for tea.
Feng Jiuxiao sat down and went straight to the point, "Old Master Zhang, I believe you already know the Du family's affairs."
Old Master Zhang nodded, his eyes full of inquisitive expressions, "I wonder what this matter has to do with the young master?"
Feng Jiuxiao smiled, took out a gold medal from his arms and put it on the coffee table, and said lightly: "I am the deputy commander-in-chief of the Imperial City Department of the Song Dynasty. I still have the right to inquire about some things."
Old Master Zhang squinted his eyes and looked at him, his face changed drastically. He stood up and hurriedly knelt down for Feng Jiuxiao, "Oh, I'm dizzy in my eyes. I don't know if the deputy envoy is missing. I hope he will forgive me!" Of course, he was not kneeling on Feng Jiuxiao, but the gold medal!
Before he could kneel down, Feng Jiuxiao had already supported him, "Oh, old man, we are just chatting, don't be so restrictive!"
Old Master Zhang looked frightened and trepidated, "This is the rule of the dynasty, how can you do it at will?" He took the donkey and immediately sat back on his original position. He cursed in his heart: Why don't you let me restrain you? Isn't it just forcing me to speak?
Feng Jiuxiao glanced at Mr. Zhang and smiled, "Mr., I have something else to do. You should have a rest, so let's not beat around the bush. Let's talk about it for a long time, can you see?"
Old Master Zhang immediately smiled and said, "Of course." He thought to himself: What is the existence of the Great Song Imperial City Department? Who dares to disobey? The eight words "Behead first and then report, just like I come in person" on the gold medal are not a joke?
Looking at Old Master Zhang who was smiling like an old fox, Feng Jiuxiao knew that the other party would no longer be careless!
"The Du family was killed. Some people say that the Zhang family planned behind the scenes. Is it true?"
Old Master Zhang immediately shook his head and looked aggrieved, "Although our Zhang family is considered a great family, we dare not violate the law of the king. Killing people will pay for their lives, let alone dozens of lives?"
Feng Jiuxiao said: "But all signs show that the Zhang family is indeed involved!"
Old Master Zhang's face changed slightly, "Long... Deputy Envoy Long, Lord Long, you have to speak with evidence! Lord Cao, the governor of this city, reviewed our family all the day before yesterday. If our Zhang family had participated, he would have discovered the clues long ago!"
Feng Jiuxiao said: "Everyone has tried?"
Old Master Zhang's eyes flashed, "What do you mean by sir?"
Feng Jiuxiao said: "I mean, Lord Cao has tried all the suspects?"
Old Master Zhang said, "Not bad!" He thought to himself: This kid's words are strange. Do you want to try again?
Feng Jiuxiao said: "What is the so-called suspect standard for Lord Cao?" In fact, Lord Cao had already told him that he just wanted to confirm it.
Old Master Zhang said: "There is no standard. Anyone who is capable of contacting the outside world has passed the sieve."
At this time, the maid came in with a tea tray, put the tea cups on Feng Jiuxiao and the other two, and filled the tea cups with water for Old Master Zhang. Just as she was about to turn around and leave, Feng Jiuxiao pointed to the maid and said, "Have you tried her?"
Old Master Zhang was stunned, and the maid also showed a nervous look on her face, standing there at a loss!
Old Master Zhang looked at Feng Jiuxiao with a puzzled look, "Does he suspect...she? She is just an illiterate maid. How could she contact the bandit?"
Feng Jiuxiao said lightly: "I'm just talking about a possibility! Since she hasn't tried it, it seems that Zhang Biao hasn't tried it either?"
Zhang Biao's face changed, "Sir, don't be wronged by the grass-roots!" Now that he knew Feng Jiuxiao's identity, he didn't dare to look directly at him!
Feng Jiuxiao said, "I heard from the old man that someone is in trouble and wants to blame the Zhang family, right?"
Old Master Zhang said: "Not bad!"
Feng Jiuxiao looked at Old Master Zhang, whose face was already a little nervous, "You think you are doing well and sitting upright, so you are not afraid of others coming to check, right?"
"right."
"You think no one in the Zhang family colluded with bandits, nor did anyone collude with Mr. Du, so the matter of the Du family cannot involve the Zhang family, right?"
"right."
"Then why did the bandit spread the news, saying that Mr. Du and the Zhang family colluded with each other and murdered the Du family?"
"Impossible! How could we work with Xiao Du to harm their Du family members?"
"I heard that Mr. Du is not the biological son of Mr. Du, but someone else's child. Have you heard of this news?"
Old Master Zhang frowned and looked solemn.
Feng Jiuxiao raised his eyebrows, "Look, you have heard of this news, why don't you believe that Mr. Du would murder the Du family?"
Old Master Zhang said: "Even if Xiao Du is not a member of the Du family, it is his own business if he wants to harm the Du family and it has nothing to do with us!"
His attitude was very clear. No matter who harmed whom, no matter whether Xiao Du was in the Du family's bloodline, everything had nothing to do with his Zhang family.
Feng Jiuxiao said: "Okay, you think it's not involved in your Zhang family now. Even if you're right, then I'll ask you, who do you think is the one who is behind the scenes?"
Old Master Zhang stared at Feng Jiuxiao's eyes and said after a long time, "Sir, I am old. I only have one wish, that is, I hope that the descendants of the Zhang family can live their lives safely! Do not seek wealth or honor, do not seek high status and power..."
Feng Jiuxiao also stared at Old Master Zhang's slightly cloudy but worldly and vicissitudes and said, "Old Master, do you think I have a grudge with that man, so you came to collect his black material and then mock him behind his back?"
Old Master Zhang did not expect that the young man would look at him without any scruples. His eyes were as deep as the sea, and they were filled with the vicissitudes of time, as if an octogenarian was looking at him. He hurriedly looked away and took a sip of tea to hide his embarrassment.
This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content later! Feng Jiuxiao said: "Okay, if you don't speak, it means you're going to be accustomed. Let me tell you, I have no grudges with that man, and we are not what you think of political and enemy relationships. I'm here, just wanting to uphold justice."
Old Master Zhang looked at Feng Jiuxiao again, "Mr. Long, you say that person one by one, do you know who the person you suspect?"
Feng Jiuxiao smiled and said, "Of course I know who that person is! I'm here just to help you!"
Old Master Zhang was stunned, “Help me?”
Feng Jiuxiao said: "Do you think you will be fine after Lord Cao reviews you and can rest assured?"
Old Master Zhang said: "Isn't it? We don't have time to commit crimes, and there is no evidence or physical evidence to prove that we are related to this matter!"
Feng Jiuxiao smiled.
Old Master Zhang suddenly felt his heart sinking!
For some reason, he suddenly felt an ominous premonition!
Feng Jiuxiao said: "No one proves it? No physical evidence?"
Old Master Zhang looked confused, "Yes!"
Feng Jiuxiao stood up suddenly, looking serious, "There is no one to prove it because Cao Guangshi did not review it at all!"
Old Master Zhang also stood up, looking surprised: "What?"
Is there any evidence? Impossible! Who in the family, young and old, dares to act without permission on my back?
Feng Jiuxiao said: "Can you tell me who that person is?"
Old Master Zhang said: "Didn't I already say it? We just want to be safe and sound... If I say the man's name, once the news leaks, our Zhang family will be ruined."
Feng Jiuxiao said: "Do you think that if you don't say it, your Zhang family can exist?"
Old Master Zhang's expression changed, "Master Long, what do you... do you... mean?"
Feng Jiuxiao said, "Don't worry! I'm not interested! How could I destroy your family just because you didn't say Wang Quanbin's name?"
Old Master Zhang's face changed drastically, "You...you..."
Feng Jiuxiao said coldly: "I told you just now that I knew who that person is long ago! I asked you to say it, just to save you! But you didn't say it! In your perception, you think you are helping me! And you take a lot of risks to help me, right?! You will never take any risks to help others uphold justice! Right?"
Old Master Zhang was silent.
He can only remain silent.
He also wanted to deny it, but unfortunately he lacked confidence.
He could only watch the young man in front of him criticizing him righteously!
Feng Jiuxiao said: "I came today, actually just wanted to see Mr. Zhang and see if he is worth it or not! It turns out that he is not worth it!"
Pang Shiwu said at this time: "Brother, what do you mean is that you don't care about the life or death of the Zhang family?"
Feng Jiuxiao said: "Don't they understand what they said just now? They think that Wang Quanbin and I are political enemies. I came to the Zhang family just to make trouble for General Wang and then stab him to the emperor!"
Pang Shiwu said: "Oh, he was worried that Wang Quanbin would take revenge on him in the future, right?"
Feng Jiuxiao said: "Yes."
"Then what do you mean by saying nothing? What should I do with the Du family's case?"
“Step by step.”
"What's the meaning?"
"Just wait and talk about it. We can't control it, let's go." Feng Jiuxiao turned around and left, simply without any delay.
Old Master Zhang was left there with a complicated look on his face.
This... why do you leave just by saying that? You don’t even say hello? This... What kind of deputy envoy is this?
When Feng Jiuxiao walked away, Zhang Biao secretly breathed a sigh of relief and helped Mr. Zhang and said, "Mr., don't be angry, sit down." Since the young man said he would ignore it, there would be no future troubles!
After Mr. Zhang sat down, he fell into deep thought.
Zhang Biao looked at Old Master Zhang with a sharp look! Chengdu will send someone here in the past two days. At that time, you should beg for your own blessings!
After leaving the Zhang Mansion Gate, Feng Jiuxiao said, "Miss Du, I already know who the mastermind of your whole family is."
Miss Du's eyes flashed, "It's that General Wang, right?"
Feng Jiuxiao said: "Yes!"
Pang Shiwu frowned, "Would Wang Quanbin be such a person? Why didn't you see it before?"
Feng Jiuxiao said lightly: "Some people have not changed! They just act differently in different environments! For example, he pretends to be a grandson in front of Zhao Kuangyin, and dares not say anything, but in front of his subordinates, he may be domineering and arrogant!"
Pang Shiwu said: "Well, a typical two-faced person. Oh, isn't you tired of living?"
Feng Jiuxiao said, "What are you tired? They are having fun! They are enjoying it!"
"Ah? There are still people like this?"
"Of course. In fact, everyone has a different side. No matter how good or bad your life is, you must pretend to be a good life in front of your parents, no matter how serious you are in front of your friends, you will become relaxed, and no matter how fearful you are in front of your enemies, you must pretend to be brave!"
"It makes sense. What should I do with the Du family's case? What does it mean to wait and say?"
"Miss Du, do you believe me?"
Du Xiaohuan said: "I believe it!"
Feng Jiuxiao said: "Okay! Then you hurry up and take those little sisters to Cao Guangshi to hide, and don't show up within a month!"
Du Xiaohuan was not stupid, and her face showed her former toughness again, "You mean, in a month, someone will touch that General Wang?"
Feng Jiuxiao said: "Not bad! Time may also be faster! The most important thing now is your safety! I will tell Cao Guangshi to keep it confidential! Wang Quanbin is in Chengdu, and you are in Yazhou. It is relatively safer not too close. Once there is a turmoil in Chengdu, you will have time to transfer!"
Du Xiaohuan said: "Okay, I'll listen to you!" She knew that only Feng Jiuxiao is trustworthy now!
Pang Shiwu said: "Brother, what will happen to the Zhang family? What do you mean is that their family will suffer?"
Feng Jiuxiao's face turned cold, "Whenever Mr. Zhang has a trace of compassion, he will reveal Wang Quanbin's name! As long as he dares to reveal Wang Quanbin, he will naturally write down his suspicion! In fact, the suspicion he mentioned is not a suspicion, it must be that Wang Quanbin had hit him before! I guess Wang Quanbin spoke up and did not agree with Mr. Zhang, so Wang Quanbin was afraid to take action openly, and he would definitely mess with him secretly!"
This chapter is not over, please click on the next page to continue reading! Pang Shiwu said: "Then...what will happen next?"
Feng Jiuxiao said: "I will tell Cao Guangshi to let him grasp the pace of the development of the situation. Now that the Du family has been destroyed, we must release the news that Miss Du is also dead, so that the Du family will die. Then they will naturally push the second link, that is, to deal with the Zhang family! Cao Guangshi has indeed had problems in investigating the case. Since he has even tried the ten-year-old child, why did he miss those maids and servants? That Zhang Biao has been bribed by Wang Quanbin! He deliberately wrote a lot of letters to the bandits, not for anything else, just to frame them!"
Pang Shiwu's eyes flashed, "This is physical evidence! No matter whether the bandits have connections with the Zhang family, these letters are iron evidence! Will these letters be in Shuanglongling?"
Feng Jiuxiao said: "Whether it is in Shuanglong Ridge or not, no matter where it was found, Wang Quanbin will have a way to prove that these letters were found in Shuanglong Ridge!"
Pang Shiwu said: "These dog officials are so stupid!"
Du Xiaohuan said: "But that Zhang Biao looks so rude. Will he imitate Mr. Zhang's handwriting and write letters?"
Feng Jiuxiao said: "There is no need to imitate Mr. Zhang's handwriting! That Zhang Biao will stamp the seal of Mr. Zhang, and then when confronting him in court, he will say that Mr. Zhang asked him to write for him. Who dares not believe it?"
Pang Shiwu's eyes flashed, "Zhang Biao is a witness!"
Du Xiaohuan also understood, "Letters are physical evidence, and Zhang Biao is human evidence. Now it is completely impossible to wash away!"
Pang Shiwu said: "First pull Mr. Xiao Du into the water, muddy the water, then drag the Zhang family into the water, muddy the water, and finally fish in the water, the fisherman will benefit, and make Mr. Xiao Du and the Zhang family notorious. This method is really amazing."
Feng Jiuxiao said: "I have asked Cao Guangshi to write a memorial to Zhao Kuangyin. I expected that the imperial envoy would handle it within one month. Of course, other cases are being handled. Then within this month, in order to avoid the long nights and dreams, Wang Quanbin will step up the steps to deal with the Zhang family. I guess in the past few days, evidence of involving the Zhang family will appear one after another. At that time, Chengdu will send a team of people to take over the case, because Cao Guangshi did not come out, and he was just excluding him on the grounds of ineffective handling of the case."
Pang Shiwu said: "By then, the news about the Zhang family's case has caused a lot of storm. It will be natural for the Zhang family to be taken to Chengdu. That's right, brother? How can the Zhang family's property be taken away? You can't move all the warehouses in broad daylight, right?"
Feng Jiuxiao said, "Of course. Isn't that clear? Wang Quanbin will definitely not be able to do this matter by himself, and he will definitely have accomplices! At least the person who contacted Zhang Biao must be his confidant?"
"Ah, it must be."
"If Wang Quanbin wants to move the Zhang family's property, the fastest way is to confiscate it! The confiscation handler must be his person!"
"I understand that brother, you can write less when you are confiscating and registering. Wouldn't those who don't keep their accounts be his? Awesome! Then what else is the scattered building, the silk shop, etc., how about it?"
"Of course it's an auction. The reason is the same. If you look for your own people, you sell them and you buy them. As for how much money it is, it's just a number. The cheaper it is when you sell it. At that time, General Wang's relatives may only need three taels of silver to buy a restaurant that makes a profit of 100,000 taels per year!"
"What about others paying a high price?"
"Others? What others? Where are there? Can such things make others happen?"
"Damn it! This money is too easy, right? It's faster than us!"
"No, they only dare to do it secretly, and our industries in Guangzhou, Caizhou and Pengzhou are much larger than those here."
"Hehe. Then the Zhang family will be in trouble next. Will they die?"
"Not necessarily! It depends on Mr. Zhang's wisdom! If he does it well, the Zhang family handed over a scapegoat and handed over all the property to close the case. If he is reluctant to hand over the property and refuses to confess his guilt, then Wang Quanbin will probably create a serious crime for the Zhang family with ill-conspiracy and kill the old and young of the Zhang family!"
"In other words, even if the Zhang family is not dead, this huge family business cannot be saved!"
"good!"
"If Wang Quanbin was arrested in that month, would he overturn the case for the Zhang family? Will the property be returned to the Zhang family?"
Feng Jiuxiao looked at Pang Shiwu, "Then it depends on Mr. Zhang, what can impress Zhao Kuangyin!"
Pang Shiwu pondered for a while, "The entire Great Shu belongs to the Zhao family, there is no need for him to do this, right?"
Feng Jiuxiao looked north, "The territory is his right, but what is needed for war is money and food. Is there a good use for the territory?"
Pang Shiwu's eyes lit up, "Oh, I understand. After fighting against Southern Tang and Western Shu, I must be poor. Unfortunately, the Zhang family has worked hard all these years."
Feng Jiuxiao said lightly: "With Mr. Zhang's indifferent and righteousness, I dare say that every copper he earns is full of the blood and tears of ordinary people! A person like him is not worthy of sympathy!"
Miss Du said, "Not bad! Why our Du family looks down on the Zhang family is because the Zhang family is greedy for money and forgets righteousness, and is profit-oriented, and is full of money and is obsessed with profit!"
Pang Shiwu smiled, "If you ask you to say this, the Zhang family is too unbearable!"
Miss Du said: "Not to mention that in the disaster year, anyone with some financial resources in our city will build a porridge house. Our family even opens warehouses and releases grain, but the Zhang family takes the opportunity to raise prices..."
Feng Jiuxiao raised his hand to stop him, "Okay, we know! The way of heaven is good for reincarnation, who will the heaven spare? Let's go, I have to explain to Cao Guangshi quickly."
Pang Shiwu said: "What if Zhang Biao leaks the news? Tell Wang Quanbin that we have been here? I won't be alerting the enemy, right?"
Feng Jiuxiao's eyes flashed, "Wang Quanbin will not restrain himself even if he knows it! He is proud of his strong relationship with Zhao Kuangyin and is arrogant because of his favor. He dares to imitate even if he flips the brand. He will not be afraid of me. Moreover, I showed an attitude of not wanting to care in front of Zhang Biao. Wang Quanbin will even believe that I will not interfere in this matter! After all, in his opinion, everyone is from Song!"
