Chapter 332 The tree wants to be quiet but the wind does not stop

Chapter 332: The tree wants to be quiet but the wind does not stop

After leaving the Kyoto Bingma Temple, it was already dark. Qin Lei sent Shi to Kyoto Prefecture to ask for Qin Shouzhuo's note, and took the remaining guards back to Qinghe Garden. Ruolan was still waiting for dinner.

The team crossed the General Street and went straight to the North City. It was cold and the most idle time of the year. People would rather hang around the stove at home than go out to walk around. Therefore, before the hour of You, there were almost no pedestrians on the street. This deserted scene made the black-clothed guards who had been working hard all day, rushing to Qinghe Garden like tired birds waiting for their return home.

After a while, the team went to Qinglong Street in the North City. Qin Lei unconsciously looked at a brightly lit red building in the corner of the street. It was the old nest of Shi Meng and Zhuang Dieer - the famous brothel in the capital is already a famous spring in the garden.

At this glance, I saw a lot of right and wrong.

I saw that at this time, the house was full of guests and the traffic was full of traffic in Yuanchun, and it was surrounded by a group of officials, and it seemed that there were still people clamoring and pushing.

"Wow..." Qin Lei grabbed the horse's reins and shouted in a low voice: "Go and see." A small team of black-clothed guards turned their horses and leaned on them. After a while, they came back to report: "It's a soldier from the Taxation Department, and it seems that he wants to close the door and check the accounts!"

"Bad!" Qin Lei spat and sneered: "I want to see who gave me eye drops." After that, he rushed over.

On weekdays, whether it is a high-ranking official, a scholar, a farmer, a businessman, a family, a future, or a livelihood, they are busy all year round. But starting from New Year's Eve, people's rhythm suddenly slowed down. No matter how high or low, they all want to spend the New Year comfortably and have a good rest.

But you always have to have some fun when you are idle all day, right? You have to vent your energy? So most businesses close in the first lunar month, but brothels must not include. Even the most ordinary kilns have a daily income of three or five times that of weekdays. What about the boss who is willing to close? What's more, brothels with a large scale like Manyuanchun.

Zhuang Die'er's business has grown bigger and has moved out of Manyuanchun, remotely controlling the overall situation. He will only come back when the account is checked on the 15th day of the lunar month. The shopkeeper here is now a young girl named "Sai Yuhuan".

Sai Yuhuan Mengzhuang Die'er rescued him, transcending the sea of ​​suffering and turning his head onto the shore. Naturally, he was grateful and was diligent in doing things and meticulously. He did not leave the spring of the garden after entering the first month of the year.

But just as the door opened this evening, a guard came to report: "The master of the tax department is here, it seems like he is looking for trouble."

He inserted the last golden hairpin to Faji, Sai Yuhuan stood up slightly and said softly: "Follow me to see." Then he took a few turtle men to the front hall.

I saw dozens of tax collectors sitting or standing, blocking the huge hallway and not allowing anyone to come in. Seeing this, the guests turned around and walked out to have fun and had fun, but there was no need to make trouble here.

Seeing this scene, Sai Yuhuan was secretly anxious: 'The popularity that has been lost this time will be gathered again.' But he still had to put on a pleasing smile on his face. While greeting him with colorful charm, he said in a whisper: "Oh... who do I think I am? It turns out that he is Lord Gou. Why are you free today? Come to our small place? Should you look for Chunyan or Ziyan?" As he said that, he leaned on his body and giggled: "Or why Yan Shuangfei just?"

Seeing her intimate appearance, Lord Gou couldn't help but say tightly: "Boss Sai, don't joke, I am here to accompany our chief minister to do it." This means, don't you tell me the occasion?

Following his gaze, Sai Yuhuan looked at the fat man sitting upwards, and saw that this person was probably more than 300 kilograms, with fat and a pig's appearance. What's even more disgusting is that his small eyes emitted an evil light without any concealment.

Strongly suppressed his nausea, Sai Yuhuan pretended to be excited and said, "I said why are there always magpies singing today? It turns out that there is indeed a noble person coming to the door," said Fu Yifu, "Dare you ask about this official surname?"

The fat chief laughed and scratched his chubby chin and said, "Boss Sai, right? What is the official surname? You can tell the matter clearly that the chief official has traveled in the wine pool and meat forest, so he naturally knows the reason to obey the other party first and then ask for it.

Sai Yuhuan's heart skipped a beat, and she still smiled and said, "Sir, I am really dedicated. I have to explain to the New Year." As she said that, she pulled the mandarin duck breasts in the gauze skirt down, and a pair of round and white breasts were squeezed and squirted out. The pig head on the opposite side suddenly breathed heavily, and her thick lips also squirted slightly. Seeing that he was so unbearable, Sai Yuhuan was almost disgusted, but she still wanted to smile, "Why not come to a table of good wine and food, I will accompany you to drink a few cups of warmth, and then slowly explain to you..." She threw her eyes in a daze and said, "Is that okay, sir, let go of the door first, they are going to open the door..."

The headmaster had already been burned by her and was already burning with a fire. He swallowed a few mouthfuls of foam and nodded with a smile. But suddenly he remembered that this errand was told by Shangshu Wen. Not to mention that she was Sai Yuhuan, even if Yang Yuhuan was standing in front of him, he could not agree. He twisted his fat thighs hard, and the pain made him a little more awake. He laughed and said, "Okay, I will be the one who is the boss of the Sai." He said to Lord Gou, "You keep guarding here, don't let anyone in. I will go in and listen to the boss of the Sai to explain the problem."

After saying that, he got up with a lewd smile, stretched out his fat hand like a bear's paw, and wanted to pick up Sai Yuhuan's waist. Sai Yuhuan smiled and avoided, giggling, "You won't let the door open, and I won't let you touch you."

The head laughed and said, "Little Beauty, don't you know yet? I like to use force the most." He said, "Catch her for me." Several tax soldiers were eager to take advantage of some trouble, but when they heard this, they rushed up like a wolf and a tiger, trying to capture Sai Yuhuan.

"Stop!" A thunderous shout sounded, scaring several tax soldiers to tremble and their bodies stagnated. In the blink of an eye, several men in black rushed up, protected the boss Sai behind him, and glared at the group of shameless clerks.

These people were sent to the guardhouses of each store. They were the forces carefully cultivated by the garrison department, loyal and brave, and prepared to protect important figures. This time it was a guest appearance in a special period.

The chief was so angry that his face was trembling with fat, and he said angrily: "I have turned against you, I dare to obstruct the court's orders to enforce the law. If you come, you will take them all!" More tax collectors took out the iron ruler chains from their waists, rushed forward and wanted to lock them up.

Several guards were annoyed that they were dirty and did not leave any room for action. After showing off their strength, they knocked a group of shrimp soldiers and crab generals to the ground.

The pig head commander widened his eyes and couldn't believe it at all. Someone dared to beat the official. After a while, he screamed: "You are so brave!" As he said, he said to the dog commander: "Old Gou, go call someone over, I don't believe it anymore. I still don't expect that our acre of three-point land?"

The old dog quickly ran out to move troops, while the pig head was temporarily evacuated from the yard under the cover of his men.

Sai Yuhuan, who was slightly shocked, looked at the guard leader with a complicated expression, and said with gratitude and angrily: "Thank you for your rescue, but we have caused trouble for Boss Shi."

The guard grinned and said, "When we came, we said, someone would just beat him up and beat him up." What else could Sai Yuhuan say about such a guy with a muscle in his mind? Hurry up and let someone notify Zhuang Die'er, and the rest could only wait and see what was left.

When Qin Lei arrived at Qinglong Street, the team of the Taxation Department had just arrived at the entrance of the spring in Manyuan.

Seeing that the subordinates of the No. 100 men came, the Pig Head became bolder and sneered, "Catch them up, I want to make them look like eighteen!" The tax collector No. 10, holding swords and guns, was about to rush into the door, and the scene was chaotic for a moment.

"Stop!" The black-clothed guards in charge shouted in unison, like a thunder thunder on the ground, which made everyone's hearts tremble. After looking for the sound, they saw a team of black knights in black-clad black armored black horses, like a messenger of hell, coming in the dark night, which immediately shocked the audience. No one dared to act rashly, including the pig head.

In a blink of an eye, the black-clothed guard rushed to the front of the door. The tax soldiers saw that all of these knights were holding crossbows, and the bowstrings were tightened and about to break out.

"What are you going to do?" Shen Qi asked coldly as he looked down at the messy tax collector.

Although these tax collectors are as lowly as dust, they have also heard of the famous black guards. When they saw these evil evil spirits from head to toe, from people to horses, they immediately thought of the prince who was so eccentric that he was so eccentric that he dared to move at all?

The pig head leader did not expect the other party's reinforcements to come so quickly, and hid in the crowd and said tremblingly, "We are from the Taxation Department. We received a report that Man Yuanchun evaded tax bank and set up a private branch to check it out, so it would be better to be as innocent as the boss."

"Inspection? There are so many troops to be dispatched for inspection? I think you are going to search the house!" Shen Qi snorted coldly.

The head of Pig Head poked out half of Pig Head and laughed in a soft voice: "They refused to cooperate and beat the tax officials, so they had to do it." He knew a little about the dark side behind him, so even if he had a lot of grass in his heart, he had to grit his teeth and hold on.

The so-called county officials are worse than to be in charge. Compared with the high reputation of the Prince of Longwei County, the Prime Minister's right to promote and punish officials in the court, which made him even more afraid.

Shen Qi was not a clever person, but because of this fat man's words, he felt that he was reasonable and could not think of anything to fight back.

Just when he was a little embarrassed, a charming laughter rang out of the left: "I said that this lord in charge really caught his heart by eating lard, and I don't see who this is the business." Looking in the voice, a young woman in a green dress and a maroon tassel cloak walked out of the night under the escort of several black guards.

Seeing the woman appear, Chen Qi couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief. If he forced the prince to take action himself, his sin would be great. Fortunately, Boss Zhuang came.

"Who are you?" Zhutou's head did not recognize Zhuang Die'er.

"My family's surname is Zhuang, and my husband's surname is Shi, just call me Mrs. Shi." Zhuang Die'er's appearance is noble and her voice is light.

"What a big tone!" The head of the pig head blinked his eyes. Seeing that more and more people were on the other side, he knew that it was impossible to get a advantage. He sneered: "I guess you are the boss of Manyuanchun. You are here just in time. I will take the account book to the tax department tomorrow. You are not allowed to open the door before you find out." After that, he took his men and retreated.

From beginning to end, Qin Lei did not show up. He just watched everything happen quietly in the dark. He knew that this matter was definitely not isolated. If he had to solve it himself this time, then when troubles arise in the future, even if he was exhausted, he would not be able to block all the holes.

"Prince." Zhuang Die'er's voice called him back from his thoughts.

"Well," Qin Lei nodded at her and whispered: "It seems that someone is going to fight with us."

Zhuang Die'er covered her mouth and chuckled, "As long as the prince is here, we shrimp soldiers and crab generals will be able to enjoy the cool under the big tree, so we don't worry."

Qin Lei smiled angrily and said, "You saw it today. They don't intend to over-anger the Lone King. Do you have to settle this kind of harassment?"

Zhuang Die'er then became serious and said softly: "Soldiers are against soldiers, generals are against generals, of course, those minions are dealt with by us."

Qin Lei laughed and said, "You are a general, not a minion!" Zhuang Die'er was secretly happy when she heard this, and said slightly to Qin Lei, "No matter what it is, you must just share the troubles and solve the problems of the prince."

Qin Lei nodded, touched the horse's hair, and smiled and said, "The reason why the other party dares to be arrogant is nothing more than relying on the power behind him and their official status. You don't need to care too much. If someone comes, you will fight the generals. At worst, the Lone King and their officials will go to the court."

Zhuang Die'er chuckled, "The prince is concerned about the overall situation, but he doesn't know much about us, the dogs." He looked at Qin Lei hesitantly and whispered, "Although those people are hateful, they can't be beaten."

Qin Lei frowned slightly and said, "Speak carefully."

Zhuang Dieer looked up at Qin Lei and said, "When you open the door to do business, you need to have sellers and buyers. Take Manyuanchun as an example. We need to buy thin horses from the market, and eat wine and vegetables from the market. As for daily use of rouge, water powder, charcoal and firewood, we also need to buy from others. If we don't have customers, we can't continue to drive it."

This woman is very polite, and she is still in front of Qin Lei, like a fried bean: "Our family is tough, and although we are not afraid of these villains' revenge, those buyers and sellers dare not provoke these corrupt officials. It is better to be in charge of the county magistrate, the prince." As she said that she realized that she was a little arrogant, she said blessed again: "I am not a ruthless person, and the prince forgives the crime."

Qin Lei smiled bitterly and said, "You have to say the positive and negative ones alone, what else can Gu say?" He waved his hand and stopped Zhuang Die'er from apologizing. He whispered: "You are right. Gu Wang is really not considerate. Do you have any good ideas?"

Seeing that the prince looked at him with hope, Zhuang Die'er shook his head embarrassedly and said, "I have long hair and short knowledge, so how can I have any good ideas."

Qin Lei laughed and said, "It made Gu Bai happy when he said so happily."

Zhuang Die'er chuckled and said, "Although I don't have any good ideas, I know that this matter is a battle in the temple and a mess in the market. If the prince wants to solve this problem, he must focus on the court and cannot treat headaches and feet."

Qin Lei nodded and smiled, "No, it's rare that you have such experience. Let's do this, go back first, think about it carefully, and let you know if you have a look."

Zhuang Die'er said with a blessing: "Yes, I'm honored to send you to the prince."

Nodding at her, Qin Lei smiled strangely and said, "Let your man come out to protect the house, don't let him gain weight at home." After that, he turned his horse's head and disappeared on the street with the black guard.

Looking at Qin Lei's departure, Zhuang Die'er's eyes were filled with worry. Her and her husband's wealth and life were all pressing on this young man. If he fell, he would definitely crush them to pieces.

"Sister, what should we do?" Seeing that the black cavalry had disappeared, Sai Yuhuan came over and asked softly.
