Mu Jian was stunned, and then saw that these people were not sergeants, so she asked, "Who are you waiting for?"
When Fang Xing saw Mu Yan, he was slightly taken aback, then smiled and said, "Mu Jian?"
Mu Jian's heart sank, she cupped her hands and said, "It's the old man."
Fang Xing looked at Li Er who was on guard, and asked, "Are you Li Er?"
Li Er didn't know who Fang Xing was, but Fang Xing's calm attitude made him feel great pressure. He nodded and said, "It's the little one."
Fang Xing's eyes lingered on the old woman for a moment, and said, "I heard that you are a dutiful son, but you went into the sea privately. I just let you escape from Xiaoliuqiu just by being slow for half a day."
Li Er's body shook, and he knelt down and said, "Uncle, the little one deserves death. I just want my mother to have a safe place, and the little one will repay you in the next life."
bember? What uncle?
Mu Jian instantly remembered Fang Xing whom Mu Yan met at the poetry meeting, and he immediately said seriously, "My lord, Li Er's mother and son in this old man's house are colluding with outsiders to invade the bandits tonight, and I implore you to make the decision."
Mu Yan stared blankly at Fang Xing, he had recognized Fang Xing since he showed up. Fang Xing admired him quite a lot during the poetry meeting, which made him happy until now.
"Uncle, my son was threatened by Mu Jian with an old slave before going out to sea, and the old slave was also blinded by Mu Jian's poison. I am willing to ask uncle to be the master of my mother and son!"
"Nonsense!"
Mu Jian looked contemptuously at Li Er's mother and son, cupped her hands and said, "My lord, the mother and son were desperate, and the old man accepted him when he saw pity, but Li Er was idle all day long, and his mother begged the old man not to drive him out. For his sake , His old mother sheds tears all day long, she is blind from crying!"
"Uncle, Mu Jian is talking nonsense!"
Li Er's mother reached out her hand and grabbed the hem of Li Er's clothes, stood up with difficulty and said, "Seven years ago, my son went to sea for Mu Jian, and he left for three days. Then Mu Jian made the two servants nod in the eyes of the old slave." The medicine, the old slave waited for them to leave, and reluctantly took the medicine that was washed out by tears, and now it is on the old slave."
Well!
Mu Jian was stunned, he didn't expect Li Er, an old lady who looked stupid, to be so deep in the city.
But Mu Yan was completely dumbfounded. Since he was a child, his father has always been a gentleman in his mind, but he loves their brothers very much.
But according to Li Er's mother and son, his father was actually a guy who secretly smuggled overseas, and he was also ruthless.
"Nonsense!"
Mu Jian frowned and said, "My lord, this old woman, mother and son seem to have planned it long ago, and they will spit out blood if there is any inconsistency!"
Fang Xing looked at the flustered Mu Jian with interest, but Li Er had already started laughing.
The laughter was harsh and unpleasant, but it made Mu Jian's complexion turn pale.
"Uncle."
Li Er said: "The young one was forced by Mu Jian to smuggle and sell goods in the sea. Every transaction has been recorded, and the young one also knows where Mu Jian last stocked and sold the goods."
Fang Xing smiled slightly, and asked Mu Jian, "Mr. Mu, can you explain?"
Mu Jian said dumbly: "This is a frame, the old man must be..."
"God, open your eyes! Look at this beast!"
The old woman's cry was sharp and sad. She raised her hands and raised her head and screamed: "This beast has harmed our mother and child, and now the retribution is coming! Retribution is coming!"
The shout sounded like a night owl behind it, making people creepy.
Fang Xing stared at Li Er, and said, "What else? Say it all."
Li Er did not hesitate, and said: "Every time the goods that go to sea are raised by the three merchants in Ningbo Prefecture, when the younger one comes back, the gold, silver and goods will be taken over by Mu Jian's people. The younger one has sent people to follow them, and all Scattered to various places in the south. Also, there is a hut behind the study of the Mu family, and there is a mezzanine on the wall of the hut, which is full of records of the Mu family's transactions."
Mu Jian was already in a daze, and Li Er grinned at him and said, "Mu Jian, do you really think I've resigned to my fate? But what you don't know is how many times I've seen the knives you wield while your husband and wife were sleeping soundly,
It just didn't cut it off in the end. "
"Take it!"
Fang Xing let out a soft drink, and the black thorn sergeant bee chrysalis rushed up behind him.
"Kneel down and don't kill!"
The lantern fell to the ground, and then burst into flames. In the blazing light, those black-thorned sergeants were holding long knives with hideous faces.
The long knife was shining under the firelight, and the expected resistance did not come.
Amidst the sound of wooden sticks falling to the ground, the servants all knelt on the ground, shouting that they were only obeying Mu Jian's orders.
Mu Jian was kicked to the ground by two blackthorn sergeants. He fell on the ground and let the rope bind his hands.
Mu Yan's treatment was slightly better, but he was kicked and knelt on the ground.
Blackthorn's sergeants only seek efficiency in their actions, and they use a lot of force when binding their hands.
Mu Yan didn't seem to notice the pain in his wrist, he just stared blankly at Mu Jian who was lying on the ground, then turned sideways and begged, "Uncle, my father must have been wronged, definitely!"
Fang Xing shook his head slightly, "You can find out if it's true or not, come here and ask Li Er to lead the way to the latrine."
Li Er was tied up, and two sergeants carried him to the inner courtyard, while his mother knelt there helpless.
Fang Xing sighed slightly in his heart, and ordered: "Give her a chair."
"Thank you uncle, the old slave only wants my son to be safe."
Judging from the seven or eight years of blindness, this is an extremely forbearing old woman.
But Fang Xing can understand that feeling: as a parent, you can willingly fall into hell for the sake of your children, not to mention being poisoned and blinded.
Not long after, a stack of ledgers was brought back, but it was a bit smelly.
Xiaodao flipped through a few books, and said, "Master, they are all lists of goods."
Fang Xing walked up to Mu Jian and asked, "Mr. Mu, where is your family's business done? Can you explain?"
Mu Jian fell silent, Fang Xing looked at Mu Yan next to him, shook his head and said, "You are a loving father and filial son, but you are so cruel to Li Er's mother and son, this person, you can't be too cruel to others, too sooner or later There will be retribution!"
Mu Yan pleaded: "Uncle, then Li Er is not a kind person at first glance, and he brought his accomplices to rob tonight, my father must have been wronged, please forgive me and let my father go! The student is willing to be a slave Report to each other."
Fang Xing shook his head and said: "Don't waste your efforts, Mu Jian's matter is a certainty, he probably won't survive, and you... prepare to be exiled!"
"Father!"
Mu Yan couldn't help crying, and the Wang family and Mu Xing's family who had just been brought here began to cry. The crying was loud and pitiful.
Fang Xing felt that his heart was becoming more and more hard-hearted, because he was not moved by the crying, and his plan of using Mu Jian to smuggle overseas to beat the gate that prevented the treasure ship from going out to sea remained unchanged.
There was a commotion at night, and everyone in Ningbo Mansion got the news. The magistrate went out in person, but after seeing the sergeant standing in front of the brightly lit Mu's house, he had no choice but to bite the bullet and ask for an interview, but was rejected.
"The Mu family has always been unwilling to build bridges and pave roads, but Namu Jian is a well-known moral gentleman. Why?"
Fang Xing was actually required to go out to catch Mu Jian himself, the magistrate knew that there must be something big going on here. But he didn't have a channel to inquire about the news, so he sent a few shrill officials to test it out.
"Smuggling overseas!"
Xiaodao told them the news with a smirk, and then said: "If the news leaks out and those criminals escape, the Ningbo mansion will probably be cleaned up."
After the magistrate learned of the situation, he stomped his feet angrily, and then threw out his hands, keeping an eye on every place, to prevent anyone from bribeing the sergeant to open the city gate.
But Fang Xing is not a procrastinator in his actions. After taking down the Mu family and getting information about those involved in the case, the people from Black Thorn and Dongchang mobilized.
The sleeping Ningbo Mansion was awakened by the rapid sound of horseshoes, and the people peeped at the galloping knights from their doors and windows.
Then the three big houses in the city were knocked open, and the sergeants and fans rushed in like tigers, and even resisted, so there were more casualties.
"Stubborn resistance!"
Fang Xing defined those resistances. As a result, the black thorn people no longer stayed behind, and when encountering resistance, the priority was to preserve themselves, and there were many screams and begging for mercy in those big houses.
It takes time and a lot of manpower to arrest and count people, search and count property, so all the people from Blackthorn came.
It was dawn, and the city of Ningbo Mansion was full of sergeants and servants, and prisoners were constantly being taken to the pier and then sent to the ship.
The belongings and goods in the cart followed closely behind, and the sheer quantity made Ningbo Mansion dumbfounded.
Just when Ningbo Mansion thought that the evil god was about to leave, the people from Dongchang attacked again and arrested more than ten officials.
The fleet left, and the uneasy Ningbo Mansion finally breathed a sigh of relief, but they didn't know that there was an extra family in the city.
There is only a mother and son in this family, the son is good at fishing, and has some spices on hand, but he exchanged some money, and later married a daughter-in-law from a farming family, and his life was happy.
