Keyboard Immortal - 66. Chapter 66
Because Mingyue City has developed commerce, especially the salt and iron trade, as well as the transportation of food, many of them have to be transported by water. The river defense camp came into being, mainly to manage and combat all kinds of smuggling. At the same time, escort some strategies and transportation of civilian and biological materials. There are also fierce beasts in some places on both sides of the strait.
Sang Qian replied calmly: “Hefang Camp is also responsible for stabilizing local security. There are so many people gathered here tonight. If you don’t pay attention, it will cause a large-scale stampede. I have come to ask, and it is reasonable. .”
“I’m afraid I won’t bother with Sang Commander.” A soft voice came.
Then a team of government officials rushed in from the door. The first person holding a paper fan, with a face like white jade, was a good son.
“Is this man a man or a woman?”
“Hush, you don’t want to die, this is the son of the city lord’s house.”
…
Zu An was taken aback, and he did not expect to see Xie Xiu, who was a male and female face again. He didn’t quite understand why the emperors and nobles in history liked to raise male pets, but if those male pets grew like this, it would not be…
Pooh, what’s the mess I’m thinking about.
Sang Qian couldn’t help but his eyes condensed when he saw Xie Xiu coming in: “It turned out to be Young Master Xie, but if I remember correctly, Young Master Xie should be studying at Mingyue College now and has no official position. Something is wrong.”
Xie Xiu put away the fan and smiled slightly and said, “Of course I didn’t bring these government officials. I just had a drink in the Tianxian Building next door and saw Uncle Pang coming with a group of people. He followed me out of curiosity, right? Uncle Pang.”
A figure with a big belly rushed in from the outside, holding on to his official hat while walking, and he could see that it was awkward to come and go all the way.
“This person is Pang Chun, the fifth-ranking county lieutenant, and the third-in-command of Mingyue City. He has always had a good relationship with our Chu family. Don’t talk nonsense and bump him into him too.” Chu Chuyan worried that Zuan had no mouth. Blocked, hurriedly reminded in a low voice.
Zuan nodded, his expression was a little weird, the man named-Chun, he didn’t know what he thought when he named him.
However, Chu Chuyan’s words also revealed some information. It seems that the relationship between the Chu family and the city lord is good, but before in the Chu family, Chu Zhongtian mentioned that he believed that the prefect Sang Hong came for them, Sang Hong’s. Taking office obviously represents the will of the court.
My dear, it’s not that the Chu family has a heart of disobedience and colludes with local officials to make the court want to get along with it, right?
I thought I was on a big thick leg, but now it seems that I am on a big ship about to capsize. No wonder I said that I was always pushing back and forth against a gang!
Do you want to find a chance to jump off the boat as soon as possible?
If Chu Chuyan knew what he was thinking at this time, I’m afraid he would have already beaten him to the ground.
After Pang Chun came in, he smiled and arched his hands at Sang Qian: “I have seen Sang Commander.”
Sang Qian didn’t dare to be careless. After all, the county lieutenant belonged to the third in command of Mingyue City.
After the two exchanged greetings for a while, they looked at Xie Xiu who was aside, and Xie Xiule said, “Look at what I do. I don’t have an official position. How should I deal with it according to the rules.”
Sang Qian sneered for a while. Who didn’t know that you called Pang Chun over. He used to look at your father’s head, didn’t he just listen to you.
Pang Chun smiled and looked at Sang Qian: “Then leave this to me, Sang Commander won’t mind?”
Sang Qian smiled reluctantly: “This is the responsibility of the county lieutenant, and I dare not overstep it.”
The county lieutenant is in charge of a city’s public security arrest and theft. In a sense, it is equivalent to the combination of the city public security chief, the chief prosecutor, and the president of the court of later generations, and has considerable power.
Only then did Pang Chun put away his smile and looked at the others in the court: “What happened on earth?”
Chu Chuyan spoke at this moment, and said roughly what had happened just now.
Pang Chun secretly smacked his tongue, apparently also taken aback by the astronomical figure of 7.5 million taels, but he responded quickly, and quickly followed her words and said, “Clan Master Mei, this is what you are wrong. , If you lose, you should admit it, otherwise the gambling houses all come like you in this world. Isn’t it a mess?”
Mei Chaofeng was secretly angry, but he still replied: “The county lieutenant did not know that this man won 7.5 million taels with just two, which is really incredible. He is definitely out of the old one. How can we do this? Recognize?”
Zuan couldn’t help but feel happy: “I said you are a gambling shop, and you are afraid that your customers will be a thousand people? Is it because your skills are not good, or are you too shameless?”
“You!” Mei Chaofeng was furious, thinking that if the two were alone, he could pinch the bug to death with a little finger, but now he had to swallow his anger and reason with him.
Grass!
The anger value from Mei Chaofeng is +499!
This is Pang Chun who also said: “Yes, the leader of Mei, since you said that he is a thousand-year-old, is there any evidence?”
Zu An thought to himself that someone above was so cool, all kinds of help to speak for himself, not to mention that he was already reasonable.
Mei Chaofeng hesitated: “That’s not true. I was not here at the time, and Zuan came with Ms. Chu. As a fifth-grade cultivation base, Ms. Chu really wants to do anything. The people in our gambling house also can not tell.”
Chu Chuyan’s face was cold: “You said I would help out a thousand?”
By now, the two sides have torn their skins, Mei Chaofeng has no scruples: “This is not true, after all, he is your husband, who knows if your husband and wife deliberately made a game to cheat me.”
Chu Chuyan said coldly: “Our Chu family’s reputation cannot tolerate your slander. I will fight you!”
Mei Chaofeng also gave up: “Because the Chu family was polite to you before, don’t be afraid of you by me!”
Zuan looked at him with excitement, wishing them to fight right away, wanting to see how the battle between the five-rank bosses was like, so that he might be prepared for it in the future.
As for whether Chu Chuyan will suffer, he is not worried at all. Not to mention that Xie Xiu and the county lieutenant are here now, and that Mingyue City is also the fief of the Chu family anyway, Chu Zhongtian will let his daughter be bullied?
In addition, she also has a background in Mingyue Academy, no matter which party she is, she is definitely not something that Mei Chaofeng can afford to offend.
At this time, Xie Xiu came out to persuade: “You two, Shaoan, please let me say something fair. People in Mingyue City know that the Chu family has always strictly prohibited gambling…”
Speaking of this, seeing everyone looking at Zu’an, he couldn’t help but breathe: “After all, Zu’an doesn’t have the surname Chu. Maybe he didn’t understand their rules when he first entered the Chu family, but what is Miss Chu’s behavior? Everyone should know.”
“Yes, how could Miss Chu pay a thousand dollars.”
“You can’t give me money and don’t pour dirty water on Miss Chu.”
“Yes, how could Miss Chu do this!”
…
The people around me all agreed, and I heard Zuan’s tongue. My cheap wife’s popularity is quite high. So many people like her, which makes me feel a sense of crisis.
Xie Xiu continued: “And I, everyone knows, and I don’t have any other specialties, just eating and drinking…cough cough, all gambling can be considered proficient. As far as I know, all the gambling equipment in the world has a match. The magic circle carved by Master Wen can isolate the cultivator’s vitality and exploration, so it is completely impossible to say that Miss Chu relies on her cultivation base to rise by a thousand.”
Sang Qian secretly scolded Mei Chaofeng as rubbish, thinking of an excuse that was not good, but instead of thinking about Miss Chu, he had to say: “Yes, I dare to use my life as a guarantee, Miss Chu will never give a thousand. she……”
Before he could finish speaking, Zuan’s voice came in his ear: “Lady, you said that if you confess to a thousand at this time, can you make this guy commit suicide?”
Sang Qian: “…”
Xie Xiu: “…”
Pang Chun: “…”
Mei Chaofeng: “…”
I just say polite things, do you really mean it? What kind of a superb son-in-law hired by the Chu family.
The anger value from Sang Qian is +213!
At this time Chu Chuyan also had a black line: “Shut up, don’t talk nonsense.”
Sang Qian had to pretend that he didn’t hear what he said just now and continued, Hey, where did I just say it? Blame that guy!
“Miss Chu will never give a thousand, but this grandson, presumably many people in the city know his previous nature and… ability. Based on his ability, it is impossible to win 750 within two hands. In case of two, then there is only one possibility left, and that is that he bought and colluded with the seven of the clubs in advance, and cooperated with each other to defraud the casino money!”
It was almost impossible to say that Zuan was a waste.
Mei Chaofeng’s eyes brightened, high, his previous rhetoric did have various loopholes, but this rhetoric can be said to completely deny the legitimacy of the other party’s winning of 7.5 million taels. It not only pushes everything to the plum blossom seven, but also can Rake upside down and hold Zuan accountable.
As expected from the capital, the method is really overcast!
“Uuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu… .
Slap~slap~slap~
The sound of clapping hands suddenly sounded in the casino. Everyone followed the prestige and saw Zuan clapping: “Lord Sang, are you also one of the owners behind this silver hook gambling house?”
Sang Qian’s expression changed suddenly: “It’s a felony to talk nonsense and slander the court commander!”
The anger value from Sang Qian is +200!
“Since I am not the owner of the Silver Hook Gambling House, why have you spoken for them everywhere since I just came in?” Zuan asked.
Sang Qian snorted, “I’m just a reasonable guess based on facts.”
Zuan asked immediately: “You also said that it was just a speculation, so based on the fact that you have been speaking for Mei Chaofeng just now, it is reasonable to speculate that you are in collusion in private. Can it be used as evidence?”
“You!” Sang Qian turned to the side with a black face, “I don’t bother to argue with someone like you.”
The anger value from Sang Qian is +100!
Obviously he has slowly calmed down his mind, what his identity, what is the other party’s identity, arguing with him is too bad.
Zu An looked at the chubby Pang Chun: “Lord County Lieutenant, you have many years of experience in investigating cases. Now it must be quite clear what the situation is.”
Sang Qian also opened his mouth and said: “Huawei, don’t be threatened by some people to influence your decision.”
“This…” Pang Chun hesitated, the sweat on his chubby face was a little bit off, he naturally knew what was going on, but the Meihua Gang had been managing various departments in the city for many years, and the background and backstage had always been mysterious. Now that Sang Qian is clearly protecting him, is it possible that the patron behind them is the prefect?
