"How did he find out there?"
Bai Qingwen stood up suddenly and walked quickly to Lao Feng: "Explain to us what is going on!"
"We don't know this either!"
Lao Feng was so anxious that he clapped his hands.
Although the name of Rabbit's Nest is not popular, it is a full-fledged happy nest of gold-selling caves.
In the rabbit nest, there is plenty of food, drink and fun.
It is the place where Bai Qingwen entertains some important people.
Shen Nan is also a frequent visitor here.
If Chu Ze were to find out, they would all be in trouble.
Bai Qingwen was so frightened that his hands were shaking, and his palms were sweating.
He felt like his heart was about to jump out of his chest.
Lao Feng is also anxious.
If this matter was found out, he wouldn't be able to survive.
"Master, we have to make preparations early. My men came to report that Chu Ze's people have been targeting them. They have been hanging around outside for the past few days. I'm afraid that it won't be long before the things we did will be punished by Chu Ze. Take them all out. We will all be finished by then."
"Shut up!" Bai Qingwen panicked when Old Feng shouted.
But what Lao Feng said is right, you need to make some preparations.
Bai Qingwen has not lived enough. He also wants to live to be 100 years old and become a centenarian for the world to admire.
But we can't let it fall into Chu Ze's hands.
Bai Qingwen suppressed the panic in his heart. With a hoarse voice and trembling hands, he pointed at Old Feng and ordered: "Go, prepare a sedan for us. We are going to see Shen Nan."
"yes."
Lao Feng moved very quickly, and Bai Qingwen got on the sedan chair and went straight to the prefect's Yamen.
When Shen Nan heard that Bai Qingwen was coming, he was a little surprised.
Surprised, the speed at which people invited Bai Qingwen in was not slow at all.
Looking at Bai Qingwen with a solemn face, Shen Nan asked: "What's wrong with such a look on his face? Could it be that Chu Ze is causing trouble for you again?"
There was a bit of ridicule in Shen Nan's tone.
He knew very well how much Bai Qingwen disliked Chu Ze.
During this period of time, nine out of ten times he came to me was because of Chu Ze.
He didn't know that he just said it casually, but he actually hit the mark.
"Chu Ze found the rabbit nest."
Bai Qingwen just walked in and didn't even sit down.
With one sentence, Shen Nan's tea cup almost dropped to the ground.
He looked up in shock: "What did you say? Say it again!" Shen Nan seriously suspected that his ears were broken, so he heard such words.
Bai Qingwen glanced at him and had no intention of repeating himself.
He knew that Shen Nan heard it and understood it.
It's just that the stimulation I received was too great for the moment, and I couldn't react.
Just like when he first heard the news.
As expected, Shen Nan did not ask Bai Qingwen again, but repeated in confusion: "How did Chu Ze find out where he went?"
Before Chu Ze came, Bai Qingwen and Shen Nan thought about taking Chu Ze to the rabbit nest to have a good time, but Chu Ze made Bai Qingwen look embarrassed as soon as they met, and Bai Qingwen immediately stopped. This thought.
Later, he even signaled to his subordinates to close down the Rabbit Nest business, and he has been acting more low-key recently.
Don't let Chu Ze catch the handle.
Unexpectedly, Chu Ze still caught the handle.
At this time, Bai Qingwen had one head and two heads.
He rubbed his temples and said angrily: "How do we know?"
If he had known, he would have taken precautions long ago and would not have let Chu Ze find it.
"A few days ago, Chu Ze banned our Yunfan Gambling Shop. If he finds his way into the rabbit nest, he will be banned there too. By then we will not only lose a lot of money, but we may also have to go to jail and die." Bai Qingwen Looking at Shen Nan extremely seriously.
Shen Nan was also in a heavy mood.
He is a frequent visitor to the rabbit warren and knows best what is inside.
There is eating, drinking, whoring and gambling.
According to the laws of the Ming Dynasty, gambling will be severely punished.
The breaking of hands is light, but if a large amount of money is involved, they will be sent directly to Xiaoyao Tower to starve to death.
He is an official and knows the law and breaks it.
There was almost no other way out than starvation.
Thinking of this, the cold sweat on Shen Nan's forehead couldn't stop pouring out.
Bai Qingwen looked up and saw Shen Nan's hands shaking.
Then I knew that Shen Nan was also afraid.
"What do you think we should do now?" Bai Qingwen waited for Shen Nan's mood to calm down before asking another question.
Shen Nan's eyes bulged: "How did we know?"
The room became quiet again.
After a while, Shen Nan said: "Why don't you close the rabbit nest first and wait until Chu Ze leaves before opening it again."
Bai Qingwen didn't answer immediately.
I have to say, this method does work.
But he still had concerns.
"Even if we shut it down, what if Chu Ze continues to investigate?" Bai Qingwen looked at Shen Nan.
Shen Nan thought for a while and said: "You lock him up first. Let's go and find out what Chu Ze wants to do. If it's not a big deal, we'll try our best to deal with it for you. But please watch your men closely. During this time, We must not let them cause trouble. Once Chu Ze leaves, no matter what you do, we will not care."
Bai Qingwen suddenly smiled.
"With Master Shen's words, we can rest assured."
Just as Bai Qingwen was about to get up and leave, Shen Nan stopped Bai Qingwen again.
Bai Qingwen sat back again.
"Master Shen, is there anything else?" he asked.
Shen Nan hummed and asked, "How did you do with the money I asked you to raise for Chu Ze?"
Bai Qingwen's eyes dimmed slightly, but they soon returned to normal.
He looked bitter and said: "How can this happen so quickly? It's only one hundred thousand taels. But we have already raised fifty thousand taels. In a while, we will definitely raise one hundred thousand taels."
He naturally believed Bai Qingwen's words.
Since he said so, the money must be almost ready.
"It is said that eating people's soft lips and short hands is short of hands. You must seize the time to raise it. When it is really necessary, this is our bargaining chip. You must be more careful." Shen Nan warned carefully.
Bai Qingwen deserves it.
But in fact, he didn't plan to give any of his money to Chu Ze.
He wanted to give it all to Kang Cheng.
He wanted Chu Ze to reap the consequences.
Apart from himself and Lao Feng, only Song Lingyuan knew about this matter.
He didn't tell anyone else, including Shen Nan.
But Shen Nan was still trying to persuade her, but the other party didn't listen to a word.
After Bai Qingwen left, Shen Nan became more and more unable to sit still.
After much thought, I decided to ask Chu Ze to find out what Chu Ze meant.
He didn't want to win over Chu Ze anymore. He would be very happy if he could get Chu Ze to be lenient.
He immediately called his master and asked, "Where is Mr. Chu now?"
The master immediately said: "It should be where the water canal is being constructed. If Mr. Chu has nothing to do these days, he will go to the construction site to take a look. Occasionally, he will go with Liu Jing and Sun Zhengde to survey the West Lake and Minjiang River."
"Quite dedicated." Shen Nan murmured quietly, and then immediately ordered the master to prepare the sedan.
Chu Ze has been so dedicated to his duties, he can't just sit in his house all the time.
