Seeing Mo Dongsheng salute for no reason, Xu Maocai and Uncle Liu were surprised, but they immediately returned the salute. After all, his posture was already so low, and if he still maintained his airs, it would be offended by others.
"Master Xu, this junior cannot bear your gift." Mo Dongsheng lowered his posture again and bowed at a ninety-degree angle.
"Lord County Lord, why are you doing this? The Xu family has done nothing wrong to you, right?" Xu Maocai couldn't bear it anymore and decisively asked the doubts in his heart.
"Master Xu, the current emperor is acting strangely, which is not the behavior of a wise king. Although the Xu family is guilty of what happened, it is not like this. I am a person who knows right from wrong. I came here today, firstly, to visit Master Xu, and secondly, I wish to Be a guarantor for the Xu family!"
After Mo Dongsheng finished speaking, Xu Maocai was shocked and looked at Uncle Liu from time to time.
But Uncle Liu shook his head slightly at this moment. It was not that he disagreed with Mo Dongsheng's statement, but that he did not understand for the time being, what kind of medicine was sold in Mo Dongsheng's gourd?
"Your Excellency, you are trying to offend me. I dare not make any assertions about the affairs of the Holy One, nor am I qualified to comment. Xu is just an ordinary person now. I hope you understand."
Xu Maocai was not stupid. If Mo Dongsheng was fishing, it would be the Xu family who would die.
At this moment, Mo Dongsheng was stunned. He had lowered his attitude so low... Xu Maocai was actually afraid that he would become an outsider. Is this...
Thinking of this, Mo Dongsheng seemed to understand something.
"Master Xu, to tell you the truth, Mo has something to say when he comes here." Mo Dongsheng pretended to remember something and patted his head lightly: "He Yi has come to Nanfeng on the orders of Prime Minister Qu. Zhou will arrive in Shanyu County soon, and his purpose is to destroy the Zhou clan!"
"Are you serious at this moment?" Xu Maocai asked deliberately.
In fact, he had known the news for a long time and had also written to inform the Zhou family in Shanyu County. But what he didn't expect was that Mo Dongsheng would tell him such news. This trust cannot be overemphasized.
"I guarantee with my head that this is absolutely true!" Mo Dongsheng said with cupped hands.
Uncle Liu's eyes flashed with strange color. If he couldn't be sure before, he was 60% convinced now!
And just when Xu Maocai was thinking about how to thank Mo Dongsheng, Uncle Liu bowed slightly and said: "Master, this is a big matter, why don't you let me go and invite the two young masters?"
"Okay, then go and call them both."
Xu Maocai naturally understood what Uncle Liu meant. After thanking Mo Dongsheng with fists in his hands, he picked up the tea cup.
At this moment, Xu Que was in the kitchen teaching Xiaohong and several servants how to make steamed buns. When Uncle Liu called him, Xu Que ran out without saying a word.
Seeing that his eldest brother was there, Xu Que became even more curious.
Uncle Liu led the two of them towards the main hall and informed them of what happened in the main hall on the way.
"What do you think?" Xu Fan asked.
"This person can be trusted!" Xu Que said, and then looked at Uncle Liu who was leading the way.
Although Uncle Liu didn't stop, his heart was "thumping". He didn't expect that the young master could see through a person from just one side, which shocked him somewhat.
"Students have met the county magistrate." Xu Fan handed over to Mo Dongsheng as he entered the main hall.
"Students have met the county magistrate!" Xu Que imitated Xu Fan's actions and stepped forward to greet him.
"Well, the two young masters are really talented." Mo Dongsheng smiled and nodded with satisfaction.
Uncle Liu stood at the door and made a gesture to the servant, then stood steadily outside.
Xu Fan and Xu Que were not qualified to speak. They were waiting for their father and the county magistrate to speak.
Xu Maocai put down his tea cup, glanced at his two sons, and then said: "My son Xu Que has already informed me about Inspector He. A few days ago, I sent a letter to Mr. Zhou to let them be careful. . And today the county magistrate came to my Xu Mansion and told me about this matter. I wonder what the county magistrate’s response is?"
Mo Dongsheng was stunned for a moment, then looked at Xu Que. He never expected that his son had already thought of the news he sent, but now that he was talking about it, he didn't treat him as an outsider.
"The Zhou family is in Shanyu County, and their main business is silk thread. I guess He Yi will definitely make a fuss about it." After Mo Dongsheng finished speaking, he picked up the tea cup and looked at Xu Que.
Xu Maocai nodded in agreement after hearing this. In fact, he and Mo Dongsheng had the same idea, and he also mentioned the thread in his letter.
Xu Que sat silently. He felt that there was no need to do this in the name of a human being. As long as he grabbed the braid of a disciple of the Zhou family, he could get a lot of wool.
"What do you two think?" Xu Maocai looked at Xu Fan and Xu Que.
"I think what the county magistrate said is reasonable, but I always feel that He Yi is not that simple. Although the Zhou family is mainly engaged in silk thread, they are also engaged in stone business. There are still more than three months before the flood. If there is a problem here, …”
Xu Fan didn't say anything more. He had already raised the matter, so he just waited for the two elders to make a conclusion.
Xu Que didn't say anything, but looked at the three of them, and the three of them also looked at him.
"Let me tell you?" Xu Que pointed at himself.
Xu Maocai and Mo Dongsheng nodded at the same time.
Xu Que was speechless. What's there to say? But when he heard his elder brother talking about the river floods, Xu Que suddenly remembered his cement business!
"If I were He Yi, I would have no intention of doing this. I would catch a lone disciple of the Zhou family, beat him up, and give him whatever information he wants!"
Hearing Xu Que's remarks, Xu Maocai and Mo Dongsheng were stunned. Yes, why didn't they think of it... If Xu Que said it true, then no matter what Zhou did, he would be checked and balanced by the other party. In this way, The Zhou family will defeat itself!
"Fan'er, write to Zhou Heng now and tell him." Xu Maocai said.
"Wait!" Xu Que stopped him.
"Is there anything else?" Xu Maocai asked.
"Father, even if you write it, it will be of no use. What we have to do now is not to tell them how to prevent it, but how to deal with He Yi." Xu Que spread his hands and said.
How to deal with He Yi?
Xu Maocai was confused, and so was Mo Dongsheng. They felt that Xu Que was overthinking...
He is an inspector and the court is behind him, how can he possibly deal with it!
"Brother, how do you plan to deal with it?" Xu Fan asked.
Xu Fan is much more sober than Xu Maocai and Mo Dongsheng. Others don't believe Xu Que, but he does!
"Brother, do you know why geckos cut off their tails to survive?" Xu Que asked with a smile.
"Afraid of death." Xu Fan replied matter-of-factly.
"Yes, since he is afraid of death, don't you think Qu Zhongyi is not afraid?"
After saying this sentence, the four of them were shocked. Who would have thought... Xu Que was not asking the other party He Yi, but directly dealing with Qu Zhongyi... This is so difficult!
At this moment, Mo Dongsheng felt that his friend was really right. Xu Que was by no means a simple man and should not be evil!
"What are you going to do?" Xu Maocai asked.
"Father can send a letter to the Zhou family and ask them to bribe He Yi with money, and then let them pretend to hate us. It is best to kick the aunt and second cousin out. In this way, everything will be easier to handle!" Xu Quedai He replied with an inexplicable evil smile.
"Are you trying to collect evidence of He Yi's crime?" Mo Dongsheng asked.
"No, he's not worth anything. What we want is evidence of Prime Minister Qu's crime, because only in this way will this gecko cut off its tail!"
Hearing Xu Que's words, Mo Dongsheng secretly admired him, but it was a bit difficult to collect evidence of Prime Minister Qu's crime. After all, he was the head of officials, how could he be caught so easily?
But what Mo Dongsheng didn't know was that Xu Que not only had evidence of Qu Zhongyi's crime, but he also knew exactly where He Yi went every day.
"Fan'er, do as Que'er did. You can write a letter now." Xu Maocai said.
"Yes, father." Xu Fan stood up, saluted, and then left the main hall.
"Father, the kid has also left. There are still things to finish in the kitchen." Xu Que stood up and said.
"You brat." Xu Maocai waved his hand, indicating that Xu Que could leave.
Xu Maocai also knew what Xu Que was doing. Since his wife couldn't do anything to him, he could only let it go.
But these words sounded a little different to Mo Dongsheng's ears. Wasn't he a gentleman who was far away from the chef? How does Xu Que get to the kitchen?
