Chapter 222  : Someone is messing with your brother – in – Law (1)

“Understood.” Wan Hansong nodded.

“Hehe, brother, I suddenly understand.” In the carriage, Jiang Xuan suddenly laughed.

“What’s wrong?” Tang Wen turned to look at him.

“They’re snatching you.

” Jiang Xuan said with a smile.

“Why are you snatching it from me? I’m not a great beauty!” Tang Wen was surprised and looked at Jiang Xuan in confusion.

“I’ve heard that the Yamen of the military chief wants to recruit your men.

This seemed to be the doing of the Linghai Academy.

So, you can’t escape this time.

Hence, Wan Hansong and Xiao shenguo also want to snatch you.

” Jiang Xuan said.

“I’ve poured the meat on the chopping board.

” Tang Wen said in a bad mood.

“Little brother, you can’t win an arm against a leg.

This time, they’re using the sun nation’s matter to pressure you.

What can you do? One had to admit that the Linghai Academy’s plan was very vicious, and there was no way one could resist it.

So, I think you should consider the matter of the Vice – envoy.

Since he couldn’t get away, he might as well fish for some benefits.

As for going to the battlefield, that’s what I said before.

Just send your men to their deaths.

You’ve completed the mission by keeping your life.

What can they do to you? It’s not that you didn’t send out your troops, but you did.

” Jiang Xuan said.

“These dogs.” Tang Wen cursed.

“Compared to the military governor’s office, the provincial governor’s office is more honest.

Once the Yamen of the military chief came to their door, it would be a reality.

If you can’t get any benefits, then you’ll suffer a huge loss.

” Jiang Xuan said.

…… As soon as they returned to the Mei mansion, Tang Jun came in hurriedly and said with a bad complexion,”master, something bad has happened.

Something has happened to miss’s family.” “What is it?” Luo Yiwu asked hurriedly.

“The young miss’s husband’s family name is Wang, and Wang bingfeng is her husband.

In the government office, he was the grain supervisor, leading the entire province’s grain, Grade 6.

Recently, the sun nation had invaded, and there was a shortage of grain.

Lord Wang had personally gone to the battlefield to supervise the transportation of a batch of grain back to the province.

They had taken the waterway and ended up being robbed.

Someone had reported that Lord Wang had an affair with a grass Bandit, and as a result, he was sent to prison the moment he returned.

The government had determined that the Wang clan would compensate them with grain, but how could the Tang Clan produce more than a million taels of silver? He had no choice but to sell his shop and heard that he had even sold his ancestral home to someone else.

Later on, a Daoist priest came and old Madam Tang hurriedly asked him to read her fortune.

When they said that there was a jinx in the Wang family, the old Madam was frightened.

When she asked, she found out that The Jinx was the eldest miss.

If that was the case, the young miss would be out of luck.

I went over just now, and the Wang family was performing a ritual.

” The Tang Army said.

“Do you guys think this is the doing of the Linghai Academy?” Tang Wen’s face was particularly gloomy.

Although he had not met this sister before, since he had taken over her brother’s body, he had to take responsibility.

Furthermore, if this matter was related to the scheme of the Linghai Academy, then it would be even more different.

“I’m 80% sure they did it.

Otherwise, why didn’t anything happen before? Moreover, their Grand Elder also mentioned in the meeting that he would attack everyone in the Tang family.

” Luo Yiwu said.

“Back to the Office of the Chief Secretary!” Tang Wen made a prompt decision.

Soon, they entered the Yamen.

“I’ve thought it through.

Like I said, this is a rare opportunity.

” Wan Hansong was full of smiles as he personally poured a cup of tea for Tang Wen.

“I’ve thought it through.

I, Tang Wen, am also a citizen of great Chu.

As a member of the royal family, when the country is in trouble, I have the responsibility to think for the Imperial court.

Moreover, Lord Wan and the governor both trust me so much.

I can’t make things difficult for the two of you, can I?” Tang Wen nodded.

“Good, good, good, let’s go and find the governor now.” Wan Hansong laughed, and the two of them hurriedly entered the provincial governor’s office.

“Hahaha, I knew that Lord Jue was a reasonable man who would look at the big picture.

This old man is very pleased, very pleased.” Xiao shenguo laughed as soon as he saw Tang Wen.

“Since the governor and the other high – ranking officials are always thinking about the court and the Chu royal family, I should have thought about it even more.

Otherwise, I’ll be sorry for the hat I’m wearing.

” Tang Wen said.

“Well said.

We should all think of the Imperial court and the royal family.

We must not let the sun nation’s scoundrels succeed.” Wan Hansong said.

“Butler Luo, hand over the silver notes.” Tang Wen said.

“Good, good, good.

Master Luo, bring me the name list immediately and sign the official contract.” Xiao shenguo said.

Below, both parties signed their names.

“My Lords, when will my position as the Vice – commander be approved?” Tang Wen asked as he sat down and sipped his tea.

“I’ve already prepared an official document.

You just need to sign and stamp it.

This is my responsibility.

Immediately send someone to Haicheng City to report it.” Xiao shenguo said.

“Thank you for your trouble, Lord Xiao and Lord Wan.” Tang Wen cupped his hands and said.

“Bring me the official documents.” Xiao shenguo said.

After that, both parties completed the second task.

Xiao shenguo immediately ordered someone to send it to sea Saint City.”It will take at least three days to ten days.

It should be here soon.” “Ocean Saint City is not near.” Tang Wen said.

“It’s different this time.

The sun nation’s Army is approaching.

The Imperial court has ordered that all officials must not slack off on official work.

Otherwise, you will be severely punished.

” Xiao shenguo snorted.

“Lord Wan, does your Yamen have a grain supervisor called Wang bingfeng?” Tang Wen nodded and asked.

“There are!” Wan Hansong nodded.

“What did you hear?” Tang Wen asked.

“En, a batch of grain was transported back from the Jiangnan Granary and was robbed at jiudao liangwan.

After some investigation, Wang bingfeng was found to have fallen asleep on the ship due to his incapability in supervising transportation.

When the bandits came, he was still sleeping, which caused the soldiers escorting the grain to react slowly.

As a result, something big happened.

This is a serious case, and we’ve already reported it to the six fan Hall.

” Wan Hansong said.

“Six Fan School? Wang bingfeng is being detained at six Fan School?” Tang Wen asked.

“Not yet? The six Fan School hasn’t sent anyone to take over yet.

” Wan Hansong shook his head.

“Can we withdraw?” Tang Wen asked.

“What does Lord Jue mean by this?” Wan Hansong asked.

“I would like to handle this case.” Tang Wen said.

“This is against the law.

Even if the six Fan School doesn’t take over, it’s the Yamen of the Criminal Investigation Department’s business.

The Yamen of the regiment doesn’t have the right to take over this case.” Wan Hansong shook his head.

“How much grain did we lose this time?” Tang Wen asked.

” 700000 taels of grain, including the losses of soldiers and ships, that’s about a million taels.” Wan Hansong said.

“To be honest, Wang bingfeng is my brother – in – Law,” Tang Wen said.

“Your brother – in – Law?” Immediately, Wan Hansong and Xiao shenguo were both stunned.

They looked at each other and immediately understood why Tang Wen had left and immediately returned.

“This matter is quite tricky.

The sun nation is about to attack, and those are military provisions donated by various places.

Now that our provisions have been robbed, the hundreds of thousands of soldiers of Linghai will go hungry.

After this incident, the government office had no choice but to transfer troops from various places.

In order to get the grain in place as soon as possible, they had to pay a lot more silver.

Because of this, I was also punished, and even the provincial governor was punished with a year’s salary.

” Wan Hansong said.

“Since you’re Lord Jue’s brother – in – Law, we can exonerate Wang bingfeng’s family and reduce their charges.

Otherwise, his entire family would probably be forced to join the army and be exiled.

They might even be demoted to an official slave.

” Xiao shenguo said.

“Can you withdraw the case from six Fan School in the name of the Criminal Investigation Division? they haven’t taken over the case yet.” Tang Wen said.

“This is rather difficult to handle.” Xiao shenguo thought for a moment and shook his head.

“Once the six Fan School is mentioned, it will arouse the suspicion of the six Fan School if we suddenly withdraw.

At that time, Lord Xiao and I will not be able to escape responsibility.

Do you also know what’s going on with the six Fan School? No one wants to provoke them.

” Wan Hansong said.magic
