"What does Brother Su mean?" Xie Cang's eyes flashed.
But Xie Cang reacted quickly, and the confusion on his face was instantly replaced by a smile.
Quite sighed and said, "As expected of Brother Su, it turned out that he was waiting for this. If he doesn't take action, he will be counterattacked if he makes a gesture."
"Haha, that's natural. After all, this Dongzhou pastor has invested a lot of money. He gave up Yu Biao to protect the entire Dongzhou high-level. Logically speaking, you have to return some favors when you go back and forth."
Su Qian said calmly and put aside the account text in his hand, not paying any attention to it at all.
Others don't know, but Su Qi'an knows it very well. Do you really think that this attack and killing was just done by Yu Biao alone and has nothing to do with anyone else?
If he really thought this way, Su Qi'an would have been tricked to death countless times.
Yu Biao's move was expected by Su Qi'an. One of the big fish caught by Dongzhou's high-level officials this time was Yu Biao.
When Su Qian first arrived in Yanglai County, he basically investigated the high-level figures in Dongzhou.
Yu Biao is arrogant, unruly, resourceful, and iron-blooded, but he is not a fool.
Find a location in the city to attack and kill Su Qi'an. Even though he knew that Su Qi'an was an inspector, he still insisted on assassinating him without thinking that he was being instructed behind the scenes.
Everything found during the joint search of Yu Biao's residence further confirmed Su Qi'an's inference.
In addition to the common gold and silver treasures, most of the three boxes of accounting texts found in the secret room related to the interests of Yu Biao and some unscrupulous businessmen.
Then there are the various house titles in Dongzhou that annexed people's land, bought and sold them by force, and killed more than a dozen innocent people.
Just these few charges were enough to kill Yu Biao more than a dozen times. An ordinary person would definitely feel that it was because of this that in order to prevent Su Qi'an from finding out about the illegal activities behind him, he would take the risk of killing someone to silence him.
Looking at it this way, it is indeed very reasonable, but they have forgotten one thing. The house title deeds and homicide cases involved in these three boxes are not in Dongzhou City, but in the Houjiu County of Dongzhou.
It can be said that Yu Biao's activities have spread throughout the Houjiu County of Dongzhou. As a captain of his state, it is obviously impossible not to alarm the two superiors Zhou Zibin and Feng Nan.
Moreover, in the text of these accounts, as well as the so-called correspondence, there are some people who have been executed. No matter how you look at it, they are added deliberately.
In other words, all the accounts that may explode at any time will be pushed onto the dead Yu Biao.
Anyway, to Yu Biao, what does it matter if a dead person has one more dirty or evil thing on his body.
Instead, it protected other high-ranking families in Dongzhou. Yu Biao's death was exchanged for the safety of Dongzhou's top officials. This deal was a good deal.
The reason why Yu Biao was willing to do it was to protect his family. Otherwise, Zhou Zibin would not have been able to quickly make the decision to exile his family at that time.
The crime of exile is considered serious, but compared to all executions, there is at least some hope of saving one's life.
But no one expected that Su Qi'an would intervene in public. Not only did he not exile all Yu Biao's clan members, but instead, the guilty ones were exiled and imprisoned according to the law, and the innocent ones were released on the spot.
How would Yu Biao feel if he knew this?
This time it seemed that Su Qi'an was at a disadvantage, and crises were everywhere. However, Su Qi'an still gained something from this invisible confrontation between the two sides. At least he got some of their bases. Next, it was his turn to start the counterattack.
Rumors from the outside world are still spreading, whether intentionally or unintentionally. These rumors are spread in places that the Supervisory Office must pass through.
It seemed that he wanted to use this momentum to force Su Qi'an to come forward and ask for an explanation.
But the rumors seemed to have subsided after Xie Cang entered the mansion, and there was silence in the supervisory mansion, as if the rumors outside had nothing to do with them.
Just when the man behind the scenes was thinking about taking a step closer to adding fuel to the fire, suddenly, news spread quickly that Shen Wanfu, the richest man in Dongzhou, had returned to the city.
If according to the past, the news that Shen Wanfu returned to Zhoucheng would indeed cause some sensation, but it would only be a normal spread, far from what it is now.
, attracting almost half of the attention of the city.
Because this time when Shen Wanfu returned to the city, he did not go back to his own mansion. Instead, he went straight to the Supervisor's Mansion and asked to see the Supervisor in front of the eyes of the people in the city.
Shen Wanfu didn't wait long at the gate of the Supervisory Mansion. Following the order from the manor, Shen Wanfu followed the others in respectfully.
This scene completely caused a huge sensation in Dongzhou City. Everyone knew that Shen Wanfu asked for help this time just for his precious son.
Shen Yang, the third son of the Shen family, together with Yu Biao and Lu Wenliang, ambushed and killed the supervisor.
This matter has long been spread, and the handling of Yu Biao, his tribe, and Lu Wenliang has long been over.
Lu Wenliang was not surprised. He was dismissed from his post, investigated, and immediately exiled. Only the third son of the Shen family was arrested and sent to the Supervisory Office, but it was not announced for a long time.
With Shen Wanfu's return, everyone realized that the person the inspector was waiting for had arrived.
When Shen Wanfu entered the Supervisory Office, there was a lot of discussion about the treatment of Shenyang from the outside world.
That kind of discussion is actually bigger than the so-called rumors. Rumors are mainly for fun at first.
If neither party responds, once the energy has passed, there will be no sense of freshness.
Moreover, the place where this happened is still in Zhoucheng. This is Zhoucheng, but it is a gathering place for all the intelligence and news in the whole state. Basically, it will be updated in a few days. If there is no follow-up of the old news, it will naturally be drowned. among the news.
Especially rumors that cannot be determined to be true or false will be replaced faster.
Now in Dongzhou City, everyone is keen to discuss the fate of the Third Master Shen. Who still remembers the rumors that were not sure whether they were true or not?
In this big discussion, the light sentence basically prevailed. In the eyes of most people, Shenyang was involved in the ambush.
But it was just forced, and with the personal appearance of Shen Wanfu, the richest man in Dongzhou, this matter would definitely not become too serious.
Shen Wanfu's identity and strength cannot be shaken by ordinary people, and he is not an ordinary businessman, but a serious businessman.
Regardless of what happened to his ancestors, the Shen family that he took over now has Shen family properties not only all over Dongzhou, but also in half of the states in Great Liang.
Moreover, he is basically the pillar and leader in the local area. No matter who sees Shen Wanfu, he will give him face.
Who makes Shen Wanfu their God of Wealth? Shen Wanfu himself invests a lot of money in free support for every year's battles and the replacement of equipment for the soldiers of Daliang.
Businessmen from such aristocratic families have been recognized by the imperial court and deserve the plaque of being a great benevolent family.
Therefore, even if the so-called imperial inspector wants to stay in Dongzhou and put down the rebellion in Dongzhou, he cannot do without Shen Wanfu's support.
Shen Wanfu came to visit in person, with a very low attitude. This was a good deal, and anyone with a right mind would know how to deal with it.
In the eyes of most people, this Mr. Shen Xiaosan may just go to jail for a while and write a confession, that's all he wants.
This provides an explanation for both parties. All I can say is, who gave Mr. Shen a good father?
As everyone waited, about half an hour later, the door of the Supervisory Mansion opened.
Shen Wanfu walked out. Without saying a word or even returning a gift, he got into his carriage and walked away.
This scene stunned the many waiting people. Some people who were good at observing detailed emotional changes clearly found that the Shen family member was not in the right mood.
Although there was not much emotion change on his face, his eyes were somewhat angry.
If he hadn't left in time, if he had left later, he would have felt the hatred emanating from Shen Wanfu.
You must know that the head of the Shen family usually treats others with a kind smile. Even if he encounters something that makes him angry, he rarely gets angry.
But now with not only anger, but also a bit of hatred, Shen Wanfu can be like this, unless the matter cannot be agreed upon and is very bad.
The eyes of several people flickered, as if they had something to say
Thinking, they seemed to have thought of something, their faces changed, and their eyes widened.
He wanted to say something, but when his words reached his throat, they still swallowed them down.
Some discerning eyes looked around, making sure that no one noticed their emotional changes, and then left quietly.
Some things, especially those involving big shots in Dongzhou, it's best to remain mute until things come out.
If you talk too much, you may die one day without knowing how.
As Shen Wanfu returned home, only about a quarter of an hour later, the results of Shenyang's handling came out.
The supervisory envoy said in just one sentence, "The third son of the Shen family provoked him again and again, and even resorted to deadly attacks. This envoy did not see his remorse. I will kill him on the spot in the future as a warning to others."
It was this result that caused the people of Dongzhou City who were paying attention to this matter to suddenly lose their voices and remain silent.
There was strong shock in their eyes. No one expected this result.
In their estimation, even the most severe punishment would be to be exiled together with Lu Wenliang.
At that time, with the operation of the Shen family, Shenyang will at least be able to live a good life, but who would have thought that the inspector would directly sentence him to death. This was the result of Shen Wanfu's personal request.
This result really made everyone in the city confused. Even the top executives of Dongzhou looked confused when they first received the news.
But after digesting it, Zhou Zibin, Feng Nan, Wu Xian, and Jiang Kun all had proud smiles on their faces.
Especially Feng Nan, he laughed and said, "Our inspector is really ruthless. He attacked the third son of the Shen family as soon as he came up."
"This is a good way to establish authority, but it's a pity. After all, you are still young, and you will play hard tricks on the people who are least worthy of it. There will be a good show next."
"No, I thought this inspector was so powerful, but now it seems that he is nothing more than that. His Highness also asked us to be careful about this person. I don't think we even need to take action. This person killed himself."
