County government hall.
A tall, slender man stood.
This man is over forty years old, wearing a large collared shirt and a long crown, and has a very majestic air. His whole body was extremely exquisite, all made of luxurious silk and satin.
This person is Li Qian, the head of the Li family in Yongning County.
Li Qian himself was born in the Li family of Xianyang, but he was born as a concubine, not a direct descendant. Therefore, it is impossible for Li Qian to inherit the Li family business. Because Li Qian was capable, he was assigned to come here in Yongning County to take charge of the Li family's business in Yongning County.
Under Li Qian's management, Li Qian's medicinal materials, paper, and grain business expanded over more than ten years and became an influential source of finance for the Li family.
Even though Li Qian was a concubine, he was quite influential in the family.
Li Qian has no hope for his future.
That's been it for his whole life.
Li Yu was different. Li Yu was still young. Li Qian hoped that his son could become an official and become an official in the court. After all, he didn't have such an opportunity back then, and now he hopes Li Yu can seize the opportunity.
All along, Li Qian has been building up Li Yu's reputation, making outsiders think that Li Yu has outstanding knowledge. Furthermore, Li Qian also always taught Li Yu to help him read and write.
Li Yu is also quite outstanding in terms of knowledge and talent, and he is not an ignorant person.
Li Yu liked women, but Li Qian didn't interfere at all. What man doesn’t have this desire? His son wanted to deal with the Bai family and seize Bai Yuyao from the Bai family, but he didn't care.
Let Li Yu do everything by himself.
Unexpectedly, after all this trouble, he encountered Lin Feng and was eventually captured by Wang Yue.
After Li Qian learned the news, especially when he learned that Wang Yue recognized Lin Feng as his brother, he did not think it was Lin Feng's plan. The first thing he thought of was that Wang Yue had taken action to deal with the Li family.
The Wang family arranged for Wang Yue to come to Yongning County to serve as the county magistrate, originally for the Li family.
Who told the Wang family and Li family not to deal with them?
This time, Li Qian wanted to ask Wang Yue to release him. Otherwise, his Li family would not sit back and wait for death, and would cause trouble in Yongning County. What will be affected at that time will be Wang Yue's political achievements.
While Li Qian was thinking, the sound of footsteps came.
Li Qian looked around and his eyes fell on the person coming. When he saw Wang Yue coming, he looked calm, cupped his hands and said: "Li Qian, a common man, pays homage to Magistrate Wang."
Wang Yue said: "Master Li, sit down!"
Li Qian sat down directly.
After Wang Yue sat down, he shook his robe and asked, "Why did the head of the Li family come to visit late at night?"
Li Qiandao: "County Magistrate Wang, although Quan Zi is naughty, he is a law-abiding person. I beg Magistrate Wang to release Quan Zi and not to unjustly accuse good people or make good people suffer injustice."
Wang Yue said: "The evidence is conclusive, how can we let him go? Head Li, are you kidding me?"
Li Qian's eyes narrowed, and he said slowly: "What evidence? It's just some villain's slander. As long as County Magistrate Wang releases my son, you will govern in Yongning County, and I will ask the people below to cooperate."
Wang Yue sneered and said disdainfully: "Li Qian, are you showing kindness? Or, do you think that the more bully I, the king, the more you bully me, you can just give me anything and it will be solved."
Li Qian did not back down and said tit for tat: "County Magistrate Wang, you have to think carefully. Do you really want to interrogate my son? If this is the case, I, the Li family, can only accompany you to the end."
"Wang County Magistrate governs Yongning County, but if under his rule thieves are rampant, people die in vain, and officials oppress people, then once the news is spread and reaches the court, the emperor will be furious. How will you explain it?"
"You need political achievements to govern the place. Could it be that Magistrate Wang really wants to break up with me? I will give you the steps, and you will follow them. If you don't give me face, don't blame Li for being ruthless."
"Hahaha……"
Wang Yue laughed.
Laughter, extremely wanton.
When Wang Yue was in Yongning County, he never took action because he was worried that Li Qian would cause trouble. He has scruples, and Li Qian also has scruples, so both sides are fine.
Now, it's different.
Lin Feng's plan broke the deadlock, and Wang Yue was not afraid of Li Qian. If you, Li Qian, want to break up, well, all the evidence of the Li family's crimes are there, and both Li Qian and Li Yu will be dealt with.
What happened in Yongning County will be blamed on the Li family. Even this incident will affect the Li family in Xianyang.
Li Qian looked at Wang Yue who was laughing and said in a deep voice: "County Magistrate Wang is pretending to laugh to hide his panic. Could it be that he is afraid?"
Wang Yue took out the book from his sleeve, threw it in front of Li Qian, and said, "Li Qian, take a good look."
Li Qian picked it up and looked through the contents of the book.
In an instant, Li Qian's expression changed drastically. He continued to look down, and the further down he went, the grimmer his face became. After reading it, Li Qian's expression became even colder.
He looked at Wang Yue and said: "County Magistrate Wang, I underestimated you. I didn't expect that you could hold back and verify so many things. You, Wang Yue, are not simple."
Once Wang Yue finds out, these cannot be erased.
Li Qian did not deny it, because in front of Wang Yue, denial was useless. Once these charges are announced or brought to trial, they will have a huge impact on the Li family.
Wang Yue said: "Master Li has given me the reward."
Li Qian said: "Magistrate Wang did not directly interrogate me, but gave me the information. Tell me, what do you want to do?"
Wang Yue showed it to him and left room for him.
Li Qian judged that Wang Yue was unwilling to break up. This was Li Qian's judgment.
Wang Yue said in a deep voice: "My conditions are very simple. The Li family will hand over the medicinal material industry in Yongning County. Whether it is the medicinal material land or shops controlled by the Li family, all will be transferred to me. This time, the Li family's affairs Just let it go and I will release Li Yu."
"impossible!"
Li Qian refused directly and said loudly: "That is the property of my Li family. How can I give it to your Wang family? What's more, if it is handed over to you, how can I deliver it to the clan?"
Wang Yue shrugged and said confidently: "How to deal with the problem is your business. If you don't agree, then you can only break up. Anyway, I have all the evidence of Li Yu's crimes."
"With the evidence of the crime being conclusive, Li Yu will undoubtedly die. As for your Li family's foundation in Yongning County, it will also be wiped out. At most, it will cause a big fuss. Li Xu, the patriarch of your Li family, will come forward, but my father is also in the court."
"The big deal is, the two families will start a war."
"What's more, it's the Li family who is guilty first, and it's you, the Li family, who is at fault. When arguing in the court, it's also the Li family who suffers."
Wang Yue looked relaxed and contented, and said: "But in the end, your son must have died. Your lineage has completely lost its chance. You, Li Qian, don't even think about returning to the Li family clan. You belong to the Li family." sinner."
brush!
Li Qian's expression changed again and again.
He looked at Wang Yue with a solemn look in his eyes.
Wang Yue's attack this time was really ruthless. Not only was his lifeline blocked, but his son was also involved.
Li Qian wanted to refuse because it involved the Li family's industry. But if he refuses, what will his son do? His hope in this life was completely gone.
Li Qian gritted his teeth and said: "Wang Yue, I admit that I underestimated you. Unexpectedly, you have been holding back. As soon as you make a move, you will use the Bai family's affairs to give you a thunderous blow."
Wang Yue smiled and said: "Master Li, what kind of thunderous blow is this? All I want is some political achievements. With the Li family's medicinal material industry, I can make it beneficial to the people, and then increase taxes from this area and hand it over to the court."
"This is what I want."
"As long as you don't affect me, then we can still live in peace. I came to Yongning County mainly to get gold plating, and I have no intention of fighting with you."
At this moment, Wang Yue did this on purpose.
He wants to deal with the Li family, but he cannot directly anger Li Qian. Instead, he must stabilize Li Qian and let Li Qian know that there is room for relaxation between the two sides for the time being, so that Li Qian thinks there is still a chance for revenge in the future.
In this way, Li Qian would not flip the table.
Only then can we continue to plan.
Although Wang Yue doesn't like the intrigues and complexity of officialdom very much. However, that doesn't mean he doesn't have scheming skills. After all, he comes from a big family.
After Li Qian heard this, he said: "County Magistrate Wang, do you take this seriously? Could it be that you are deliberately deceiving me?"
Wang Yue said: "If I lie to you this time, will you cooperate with me in the future? Will you still believe me? Even if I lie to you, your ambition to do anything is not good for me. So, why deceive?" You. Can’t Master Li see through this?”
Li Qian also nodded after hearing this.
Wang Yue's words make sense.
Li Qian took a deep breath and said solemnly: "Okay, I agree to your conditions."
For the sake of his son, Li Qian could only endure it.
As for the lost property, how should I explain it to my family and find a way to deal with it?
A smile bloomed on Wang Yue's face. Thanks to Lin Feng's plan, things happened. Wang Yue stroked his beard and said: "Master Li, your son will be aggrieved for a while longer. After the medicinal materials industry is handed over, I will announce to the public that the matter has been reconciled and my son will be released. The matter of the Li family ends here."
"Farewell!"
Li Qian stopped lingering and turned around to leave.
Wang Yue looked at Li Qian's back as he hurriedly left with an angry expression, a smile on his face.
This time, it was so cool.
Wang Yue stood up and hurried to the backyard. Now that he had completely suppressed Li Qian, he was so happy that he couldn't help but share it with Lin Feng. After all, this matter all depended on Lin Feng's plan.
Without Lin Feng, Li Qian would not be able to be controlled this time, let alone the Li family's medicinal material industry.
