Chapter 489: The Threat of Liu Bixian and His Son

After Fang Xing captured Su Bawei, he didn't interrogate him, but just locked him in the backyard.

"let me out……"

"My lord, I am so wronged!"

"..."

Dadai closed the notebook in his hand, frowned and said, "Why did uncle lock them up?"

While monitoring the row of rooms where the Su family was detained, Fang Wu responded, "They sell illegal salt."

He said blankly: "Is that a heinous crime?"

"certainly."

Selling private salt is a felony, and most people know this.

"Then why not put them in prison?"

If he was being questioned continuously like this, Fang Wu would definitely be impatient, but Dadai was different, he said softly: "I haven't found any evidence of them selling private salt."

Because it was rumored that Jubaoshanwei was going to close the street, most of the people who were worried about being arrested closed their homes tightly and slipped through the walls when they went out.

So Fang Xing asked people to spread the word that he was here to catch private salt dealers, which relieved the panic in the hearts of the people.

"But they are really troublesome!"

Tilting his head in a daze, he thought for a while: "Fang Wu, I remember that there is a large courtyard in the west of the city, which is said to be haunted by ghosts, and no one dares to walk that way at night."

Fang Wu said in amazement: "Really? That has nothing to do with private salt, right?"

Staring blankly at the sky at a forty-five-degree angle,

Youyou said: "But I think there should be some... shameful things in there!"

"Fang Wu, the master is calling you."

Fang Wu responded, and hurried inside.

He murmured blankly: "How come no one believes what I say?"

Fang Wu arrived at the back, Fang Xing saw him and ordered: "Someone is coming soon, please lead someone to pay attention to his attendants."

Fang Wu took the order to leave, Huang Zhong said with a smile: "This Liu Bixian is the leading figure in Yangzhou Prefecture. Every magistrate has to visit Liu's house at the beginning of his appointment, otherwise this official will definitely not be safe."

Fang Xing got up and was about to go to the front hall, when he heard the words, he said: "This is the power of a gentleman, in the future this power will become bigger and bigger, it will really be a big deal."

Later, the emperor sent people to collect taxes, but the local gentry incited the people to make trouble. What Jinyiwei and eunuchs became a joke.

Compete with the people!

The emperor wanted to collect business taxes, but was criticized by the ministers as "competing with the people for profit" and "good money".

And those tycoons who rely on the sea to make their country rich are the masters behind all this.

Later, Shanxi merchants sprang up by relying on smuggling grasslands, echoing with the wealthy merchants in the south from north to south, and the entire Ming Dynasty can be said to have become a merchant empire.

The cabinet is the spokesperson of the merchants, and all the officials have long been bought by various names of "filial piety", leaving only the emperor, who is really a lonely family.

Even the emperor was the last to know that the city gate was opened!

In the front hall, seeing Fang Xing striding towards him, Liu Bixian tremblingly was helped up by Liu Shanren, and he cupped his hands and said, "Uncle Xinghe, please forgive me, the old man is too old to be rude."

Fang Xing cupped his hands with a charming smile and said, "Mr. Pixian is so polite, please sit down."

Liu Bixian and Yang Shiqi wrote in words. After sitting down, he stared at Fang Xing with cloudy eyes, and said slowly: "Xing Hebo is young and promising. The old man is not feeling well recently, so he is late!"

"Gong Pixian is wrongly praised, Fang is lucky, and he is more respected than the one who is not worthy of Pixian."

After the two exchanged a few words, seeing that Fang Xing hadn't taken the initiative to bring up the incident of bloodshed on the streets yesterday, Liu Shanren made a bold statement.

"Uncle, may I ask what happened yesterday?"

Fang Xing asked with astonishment when he heard the words: "What happened yesterday? What happened yesterday?"

Liu Bixian cursed the little fox in his heart, and then coughed dryly: "Uncle Xinghe, Yangzhou Prefecture has been at peace for a long time, and the swords and soldiers cannot move!"

Fang Xing listened with a smile and did not refute.

Liu Bixian glanced at him, and then slowly said: "Since the old man came back to his hometown, he was really relieved to see that the government is good and the people are harmonious. From now on, I just want to wander in the forest. After this rest of my life, the tree wants to be quiet but the wind doesn't stop. Many people have begged the old man to come forward, begging Xing and Uncle to look at the old man's shame, put off their swords and weapons, so that the people can live in peace, and everyone will be happy..."

After finishing speaking, Liu Bixian took a sip of tea and looked at Fang Xing indifferently.

Fang Xing was a little dazed, he smiled and said, "Mr. Bixian, I am not responsible for what happened yesterday, it was written by Su Bawei. Later, Fang was furious, so he ransacked Su's house, and found some things..."

Seeing Fang Xing's expression that looked like a smile but not a smile, Liu Bixian interrupted: "Uncle Xinghe, this old man has been in office for many years and has always been kind to others. I have made a lot of friends. Many friends have many paths. What do you think, Uncle Xinghe?"

Fang Xing laughed and said, "Fang doesn't have many friends, but they all take each other with all his heart. I wonder who Bi Xiangong's friends are?"

Since returning to his hometown, this was the first time someone ridiculed Liu Bixian, but his city is not shallow, so he just smiled and said: "I was impeached before, remembering those days, I am really terrified!"

This is a threat!

Fang Xing's smile disappeared, and he said indifferently: "Pixian is getting old, so why not rest at home? He has to go out in the muddy water, but the fish in the muddy water are not easy to touch!"

These words disturbed the previous 'harmonious atmosphere' completely, Liu Shanren glared at the other party angrily, and said in a deep voice: "Uncle, my father's past is all over Daming..."

This is still a threat!

At this time, Huang Zhong ignored the existence of Liu Bixian and his son, walked to Fang Xing's side from the outside, and whispered something in his ear.

Fang Xing's expression remained unchanged. After Huang Zhong finished speaking, he stood up and said, "Benbo has business matters, so I won't accompany Pi Xiangong to see off the guests."

This is rude, and it is tantamount to driving people away.

Ordinary people treat guests, basically the guests decide what to do by observing their words and deeds, but Fang Xing's hard way of chasing guests, to be honest, Liu Bixian only encountered it when he first entered the officialdom in his life.

However, the Shangguan who made Liu Bixian ashamed at that time was hit hard by Liu Pixian who was accumulating strength more than ten years later. As a result, when he was about to retreat safely, the whole family was exiled.

Liu Bixian stretched out his hand to stop his son, there was no anger in his cloudy old eyes, but he said with a smile: "Uncle Xinghe has high authority and has a lot of affairs. I shouldn't bother you so much, so I'm leaving."

Huang Zhong sent the father and son to the door, watched them get into the carriage, and hurried to find Fang Xing.

But Liu Bixian who was on the carriage tore off his kind face, and even Liu Shanren was shocked by his ferocious old face.

"Zhu Zi'an dare to insult me!"

With a murmur of phlegm in the deep growl, a pair of well-maintained old white hands grabbed the book and tore it in half violently.

After Liu Bixian finished venting, he sneered and said, "At this moment, those memorials must have been sent to His Majesty's case. Fang Xing's behavior is asking for his own death!"

Liu Shanren said proudly: "Father, you still have the foresight and dispatched fast horses early. If those officials who have benefited dare not show their heads, everyone will die together!"

Liu Bixian concealed his complacency, and said in a deep voice: "If something major happens in the Yangzhou government when the canal is opened, it must be something that His Majesty does not want to see, and Fang Xing's military rebellion, if it was in Taizu's dynasty, he would have died a long time ago. There is no place to die!"

Liu Shanren laughed and said: "Father has no plan left, wait for His Majesty's imperial decree, I think Fang Xing must regret it, when the time comes, our house will close the door, even if he begs, don't answer!"

Liu Bixian snorted coldly and said, "I've been in office for my father for many years, and this is the first time I've been expelled by someone. If I don't avenge this revenge, I won't die with peace in my eyes!"
