Hu Xiaotian smiled and said: "I don't believe that the eldest prince designed to frame the second son, brothers are like siblings, flesh and blood, how can they kill each other, cold-blooded."
Wan Boping said: "My two sons have had a good relationship since childhood, when Tingsheng was unconscious, Tingchang was the most nervous, busy and busy, how could he harm his fellow brothers, it must be those two minions who maliciously planted the blame" Wan Boping's tone was obviously unconfident, he actually had doubts about this matter early on, the first to find the second son was the eldest son Wan Tingchang, as for the second son drunk and fell down is also what he said, now think about the eldest son does have the biggest suspicion in this matter, if the second son is dead, Then he became the sole heir to the family business.
Wan Boping's heart was in extreme pain at this time, on the one hand, he hated his eldest son for being so cold-blooded and cruel that he could do it to his own brother, and on the other hand, he wanted to try his best to cover up this matter, this was a great scandal for the Wan family, the brother was on the wall, and he got to the point of death for the family property.
But now the trouble is that the two family members have already written their confessions, and they are afraid that there will be trouble if they fall into the hands of the government.
Even if he can escape criminal responsibility, his family will be ugly, and in the end, he will become a joke in the mouths of others.
Hu Xiaotian said: "If I submit these two confessions, I'm afraid that Wanfu will not be able to be peaceful during this time." ” Wan Boping saw him pick up the two confessions, and he already understood in his heart that Hu Xiaotian didn't want to publicize this matter at all, he was waiting for his own statement.
Wan Boping said: "Master Hu, don't hide it, those two family members did something wrong a few days ago and were scolded by my eldest son.
I didn't expect them to hold a grudge and do such a thing. ” Hu Xiaotian said with a smile: "The confession of this kind of slave is not enough evidence.
He actually picked up the confession and put it on top of the candle.
Burned clean in front of Wan Boping.
Wan Boping was relieved to see that the two confessions had turned to ashes.
He guessed that Hu Xiaotian would not do this for no reason, and this gesture must have a purpose, so he said in a low voice: "When I go back, I will send someone to send two hundred gold to Master Hu for the purpose of settling down."
Thinking that he would spend 500 gold on Hu Xiaotian in the past two days, Wan Boping couldn't help but feel a pain in his flesh, but in the current situation, he had to say that this guy was not a fuel-efficient lamp.
Hu Xiaotian laughed and said: "Outside of ten thousand people, money is something outside the body, compared to feelings.
Nothing. ” Wan Boping was slightly stunned, not knowing what Hu Xiaotian meant by this.
Hu Xiaotian said: "I first came to Qingyun, I have no relatives here, let alone any friends, although I and Wan Yuanwai have known each other for a short time, but I feel that Wan Yuanwai is a loyal elder, is a friend worthy of trust."
Speaking of this, he deliberately paused, and then said: "But I don't know if Wan Yuanwai is willing to make friends with me" Behind any successful politician is the support of one or more powerful chaebols, Hu Xiaotian wants to gain a firm foothold in Qingyun officialdom.
This is the first problem to be solved.
Wan Boping had fully understood at this time that Hu Xiaotian wanted to use his influence in the local area to propose the matter of being friends with him.
He picked up the wine jug and quickly filled the wine glass, picked up the wine glass and said, "In my heart, I not only regard Master Hu as a friend.
I regard Master Hu as my benefactor."
Hu Xiaotian shared a drink with him and said: "Whether these two family members are telling the truth or not, you know it in your heart, and I also know it in my heart."
What everyone thinks about is family harmony.
To do business, you have to be harmonious and make money, and I want to benefit one party.
Do something in Qingyun County in a down-to-earth manner, and only with political achievements can you go further. ” Wan Boping smiled: "We businessmen have always paid attention to mutual benefit and reciprocity.
Lord Hu has helped me so much, I will naturally spare no effort for Lord Hu's affairs. ” Hu Xiaotian nodded and took the opportunity to put forward another request of his own: "Huichun Hall Liu Angelica is a distant relative of mine, and I hope that Wan Yuanwai will raise his hand in his son's affairs." ” So far, how dare Wan Boping say a word, Liu Kuohai is nothing more than a small person in his eyes, he nodded and said: "How Lord Hu arranges, listen to it." ” When Hu Xiaotian left, Wan Boping personally sent him out of the door, watching the carriage go farther and farther in the moonlight, but the smile on Wan Boping's face slowly solidified, and he said to Wan Changchun beside him: "You go to Xiezhou and help me find out his origin." ” Wan Changchun said respectfully: "Yes" "Also, find that unsuccessful thing, bring it back to me, and I'll ask him in person."
It was already dark when Hu Xiaotian returned to the Fulai Inn, Murong Feiyan was already waiting at the inn, and the innkeeper Su Guangju heard the sound of cars and horses coming and hurriedly greeted him, and he also just learned that this young guest was actually Hu Xiaotian, the new county magistrate of Qingyun County.
While Su Guangju blamed himself for having no eyes, he couldn't help but feel secretly surprised, this was a noble person.
Seeing Hu Xiaoxia getting out of the carriage, Su Guangju hurriedly stepped forward to salute: "Little Su Guangju, there are no beads in his eyes, he doesn't know that the adults are coming, and he hopes that the adults will forgive him."
"To the end, he is extremely pious, although Su Guangju has always been very polite to Hu Xiaotian, but today he is obviously a little more in awe.
Hu Xiaotian patted him on the shoulder with a smile and said, "Boss Su doesn't have to be polite, I hide it from you these days, and I hope you don't mind." ” A voice came from afar: "Lord Hu" is Liu Angelica, the boss of Huichun Hall, he has been waiting in the distance, seeing Hu Xiaotian's carriage and horse coming back, he hurried over to meet him, there is still a place about a zhang away from Hu Xiaotian, Liu Angelica bent his knees and was about to kneel, Hu Xiaotian quickly stepped forward and hugged him: "Liu Shopkeeper doesn't need such a big gift." ” Liu Angelica said with tears: "Please also ask Lord Hu to be the master of the small people." ” Hu Xiaotian smiled: "You don't have to be in a hurry, go in and talk about it." ” Only then did he enter the inn, and without waiting for Liu Angelica to intercede, Hu Xiaotian had already said that Wan Jiajia had promised to let Liu Kuohai go, and he smiled: "I could have released him now, but I thought about it, he has such a frizzy temper, if he doesn't teach him a lesson, he will definitely cause trouble in the future, so let him stay in the prison room for one more night to calm down." ” Liu Angelica nodded again and again, and learned that Wanjia had withdrawn the lawsuit, and his son was naturally in trouble, and the gratitude in his heart was overflowing.
Su Guangju is good at observing words and feelings, and said to Liu Angelica: "Shopkeeper Liu, Master Hu has worked hard all day today, and he needs to rest early, and he will talk about it tomorrow if there is anything." ” Liu Angelica had already thought about it, so naturally he had no objections, and he left after saying goodbye to Hu Xiaotian.
After he left, Su Guangju reported to Hu Xiaotianyu: "The adult asked me to find the house has been found, in Sande Lane, less than half a mile away from here, it was originally the house of Xie Jingui of the silk village, this Xie boss because the business turned to Xizhou, so the house was put up for sale, the price is twenty taels of gold, there are seven houses inside and outside, and there is a small courtyard before and after, quiet in the middle of the noise, very good, the Xie family has always been prosperous, and I have never heard of any bad luck in them over the years." ” Hu Xiaotian nodded and said, "That's the best." ” Su Guangju said: "When Lord Hu has time, I will accompany you to see the house." ” Hu Xiaotian said: "Tomorrow afternoon." ” After the two made an appointment, Hu Xiaotian returned to the room and saw Murong Feiyan sitting alone under the grape trellis in the backyard to enjoy the coolness, so he smiled and sat next to Murong Feiyan: "Isn't it a little lonely to enjoy the cool and enjoy the moon alone?"
Murong Feiyan glanced at him and said, "What benefits did you extort when you went to Wanjia?"
Hu Xiaotian laughed and said: "In your heart, I have never been a good person.
He briefly told him what happened after he went to Wanfu, and Murong Feiyan was also very relieved to hear that he had successfully persuaded Wan Jia to let Liu Kuohai go, but when he heard that Hu Xiaotian had burned all the two confessions, he immediately raised his eyebrows and said in a low voice: "Do you want to put an end to Wan Tingchang's intention to murder?"
Hu Xiaotian said: "I told you, you can't bring down Wan Tingchang based on the confession of the family alone, we have just arrived in Qingyun, there is no need to make too many enemies, the biggest enemy at the moment is" When he said this, he suddenly saw Su Guangju leading a person in a hurry, but that person was Guo Shouguang, the chief bookkeeper of Qingyun County.
Hu Xiaotian then stopped talking and stood up.
Guo Shouguang bowed and said, "Lord Hu, Lord Xu is back, and he specially sent me over to invite Lord Hu to the official residence for a gathering." ” Hu Xiaotianxin said what time is this, Lao Tzu came to office on the first day today, you gave me a way to avoid it, and sent me a soft nail, and now it's time to turn off the lights and go to bed, you sent someone over and asked me to go to the mansion to get together, what are you doing when Lao Tzu calls to come and go Hu Xiaotian yawned and said: "It's too late today, I won't go to Lord Xu's mansion to disturb, and tomorrow morning, I will go to the adult's mansion to pay a visit." ” Guo Shouguang leaned closer to Hu Xiaotian, completely forgetting that Hu Xiaotian disliked his bad breath: "Lord Hu, Lord Xu personally invited, I'm afraid it's not good if I don't go."
Hu Xiaotian glanced at this guy coldly, the dog fights the powerful thing, you dare to fake the tiger, he smiled without smiling, and then turned around and went back to the room, hanging Guo Shouguang in the courtyard, Guo Shouguang really didn't expect Hu Xiaotian to refuse so simply, leaving no room for maneuver.
Hu Xiaotian did what he said, and the next day, Tianmeng Mengliang got up from the bed, washed up, and went straight to the county office to visit his top boss, and the county ordered Xu to be honest.
Only Xu Qinglian lived in the Qingyun County Ya, and Hu Xiaotian went directly to the back door.
The knock on the door woke Xu Qinglian's sweet dream, and the goods got up from the round belly of the mother-in-law, squinted a pair of sleepy eyes, and said angrily: "Who is knocking on the door outside?"
Outside the door, Ding Xu An said: "Master Qiyu, the new county Cheng Hu Xiaotian came to visit. ” Xu Qinglian's heart was a nameless fire that jumped up, this Hu Xiaotian is too much, last night I sent the chief bookkeeper Guo Shouguang to invite you to come and meet, you didn't give me face, but this morning you came to disturb my good dreams, it's really unreasonable, don't give you some color to see, you don't know who the boss of Qingyun County is Xu Qinglian sat up from the bed slowly, and said while slowly putting on his clothes: "Let him wait outside for a while" to be continued:
