Chapter 23 Beating the Imperial Court Officials
Governor's Office.
Xu Wei was looking at the reports one by one and felt a little relieved.
After all the efforts to investigate these days, there was no trace of the thief, and there was no news about the insect refining sect. This is the best news.
Now Xu Wei’s two major concerns are the Revitalization Association and the virus. To clear the Beiyun Province and take the initiative in his own hands, we must eliminate these things without any room for bargaining.
"Ran'er, Ran'er?"
Xu Wei called out twice, and saw that the only document came in, he frowned and said, "Where is the rebellious son? He was still serving here just now, why did there be no one in a blink of an eye?"
The clerk replied: "Sir, Mr. Xu has been to Tianxiu Group for a long time. He has been busy with business recently, so don't worry."
Xu Wei said with relief: "Okay, with Mr. Liu staring at me, I guess he can be more obedient and should not cause any trouble..."
"Sir, Mr. Xu... is in trouble again!"
Before he finished speaking, Wang Tong came to slap his face. This sentence caused trouble again, almost making Lao Xu angry and vomited blood.
Damn this rebellious son, I just finished praising him...
"What's going on?"
"It was the inspector from the court. There was no news before. One was Yao Dongsheng from the Ministry of Revenue, and the fifth-rank Zuo Zheng from the Ministry of Military Preparation, named Qiu Hai." After Wang Tong said that, he said carefully: "This child Xu Ran beat the man..."
"What?" Xu Wei said in surprise: "Is Yao Dongsheng beaten? Or Qiu Hai? Are you seriously injured?"
Wang Tongdao: "It's not heavy, but both of them were beaten."
When Xu Wei heard this, he was furious: "Rebellious son! This rebellious son! Even the inspector sent by the court dared to attack him. Where did he get the courage? Why did he do it?"
Wang Tong said with a strange expression: "They are here to find trouble for Tianxiu Group. Mr. Xu was so angry that he took action on the spot. As for the specific details, the official was about to go and take a look..."
"Tianxiu Group? Are you here to trouble Liu Xiu?" Xu Wei was stunned.
"Sir, I think you should not come forward first, and you will talk about it after the official has finished reading." Wang Tong suggested.
"Yes, just say I'm not here to avoid the other party making a big fuss." Xu Wei agreed, and then looked disdainful. "Isn't it just a beating? Who told them not to come before they came, and they didn't come to the Governor's Office when they arrived in Beiyun City. They deserved to be unlucky! Tell that brat and the rebellious boy, they insisted that they didn't know the other party's identity!"
"It's an adult, then I'll go first." Wang Tong laughed and turned around and left.
In fact, Wang Tongbing was too worried. Who is Mr. Liu? Not to mention that those two Beijing officials were just small minions, even if the real boss came, don’t think about getting a bargain from Liu Xiu!
As for beating someone, it was a bit troublesome, but Wang Tong believed that since Mr. Liu did not stop him, there would definitely be no problem. He probably won’t be a heavy fight. It would be better if they waited for them to return to Beijing. Can they still sue the emperor?
After Wang Tong informed Xu Wei, he rushed to Tianxiu Group slowly. He picked a popular Tang suit for his wife at the counter on the first floor, and then he went upstairs.
At this time, the atmosphere in the conference room on the fifth floor was very strange.
The top leaders of Tianxiu Group were all there, opposite were two blue-faced officials, several followers, as well as the shopkeepers of the Wushang Alliance, and two constables next to them. The situation had been stalemate for an hour.
Before, Yao Dongsheng and Qiu Hai did not bring anyone, and they were wearing casual clothes to verify. They only changed into official uniforms after being beaten and showed their identities, but the hitter could not be found.
Qiu Hai was the most frustrated. His innate master was actually put down by a woman. He didn't even see what the other person looked like. He just vaguely saw it, as if he was a petite little girl...
The Tianxiu Group is extremely vicious. Even the imperial officials dare to fight. It is really lawless. Afterwards, he said arrogantly: Those murderers are not our people!
Damn, do you think others are fools?
Qiu Hai poured two cups of tea, touched the bag on the back of his head, and continued to slam the table and said, "I will limit you to one incense stick, bring the three murderers here, two young men and one little girl, otherwise, hum..."
"My lord, we deeply sympathize with your experience. I believe that the yamen will solve the case as soon as possible." Lu Lingxi said, and then looked at the two constables, who were almost crying.
What's this? What are you gods fighting? Why are you calling us here? Why haven't you come yet?
Qiu Yao and the other two were almost crazy. This woman was just a soft nail when she opened her mouth. She was really difficult, but she couldn't refute it. It was okay to be beaten to the yamen.
Qiu Hai was so angry that he slapped the table again, but this time he finally used too much force and slapped the conference table more than five meters long apart!
Liu Xiuteng, who had been resting, sat up and said excitedly: "Then! Both officials saw it. He slapped the table! According to the laws of the National Fortune, Chapter 203, court officials maliciously destroyed other people's property, and the crime was added to the first level, and the compensation was doubled. Those with bad circumstances would be punished for their salary or handed over to Dali Temple..."
Liu Xiu's sudden operation, this time he showed off his great fortune law and even recited any one for you to memorize.
The two detectives looked at each other and seemed to have this one, but they just couldn't remember the specific content clearly.
"Give it money. This table is made of rosewood. It was made by famous craftsmen in the city. There are a total of 300 taels of gold. You have to pay 600 taels." Liu Xiu stretched out his hand and asked for the money directly.
Qiu Hai was stunned. Let’s not talk about the beating of my official. How could you be worth three hundred taels of gold on a table? Are you robbing money!
"Is this indeed a rosewood or a small leaf rosewood!" An honest detective exclaimed, rich man!
At this time, Wang Tongcai walked in in a square step, followed by several officials and guards.
"Oh! So lively? Why did Boss Liu's desk be removed?" Wang Tong came up and joked.
Liu Xiu immediately recited the law of the great fortune again, and did not give Qiu Hai a chance to speak, so he sued the other party as a victim.
After hearing this, Wang Tong and other officials said in unison: "There is indeed a law, so it should be double compensation!"
Qiu Hai and others had various MMPs. Judging from the attitudes of Wang Tong and others, they obviously would not help catch the murderer. Even if this blow was in vain, they would be entangled if they continued like this.
However, Yao Dongsheng, the same rank as Wang, was in the court and was in charge of money and grain. He was naturally superior to others and immediately used his trump card.
"Mr. Wang, this time the Cabinet decree has asked us to thoroughly investigate illegal martial arts. Could it be that you officials from Beiyun Province want to obstruct them?"
"oh?"
Wang Tong was stunned: "Is Wu Shang under the jurisdiction of the cabinet? I am sorry, how can I remember that it is under the jurisdiction of the Wu Pavilion?"
"Do you still want to question?" Yao Dongsheng said sternly: "Wu Shang pays taxes, and the Ministry of Revenue will take care of it. Today I will check the taxes on the spot. If someone evades taxes, I will never let it go!"
Escape from taxes... Wang Tong looked at Liu Xiu, "You kid, you are not escaping, you have never paid taxes at all!"
It seems that these people are prepared, and this investigation is directly at the critical point. It is a bit difficult to deal with. Private tax exemption is originally a hidden rule for local officials, and no one will usually care about it. Unexpectedly, Governor Xu's tax exemption to Liu Xiu was actually used by those who are interested.
Such things can be a big deal if they are on the table. Since someone wants to deal with Liu Xiu, they will not let this handle go. Recently, the Beiyun Province has been at the forefront, and the situation in the North Korea and China is still very unclear.
Chapter completed!
