"Husband, please don't quarrel with me. Yan'er won't go..." Jiang Yuyan suddenly appeared to fan the flames.
"Yan'er, don't listen to him. The imperial concubine is so noble. What can you do if you stay here? Listen to dad..."
Jiang Biehe first comforted Jiang Yuyan and then focused on Chen Fan again. He narrowed his eyes slightly and said fiercely to Chen Fan;
"Don't give me a toast and eat it as a fine. Don't think that just because Meng Jiang, the prefect of Yangzhou, can talk to me like this. If he was useful, you wouldn't have given all your family property to my Jiang family."
Thinking of Chen Fan's subservience to his wife Jiang Liu and her current disobedience to him, Jiang Biehe felt extremely angry. Could it be that he didn't have any deterrent power in his eyes?
But Jiang Biehe didn't know that Chen Fan was no longer the same person as he was a few months ago. With the support of martial arts, his courage and temperament were different, because he had the confidence to say "no".
In this martial arts world, money is no longer a person's confidence, martial arts is.
"Jiang family? Hehe, without the support of Dongchang behind the Jiang Liu family, you, Jiang Biehe, are nothing. Why are you pretending to be a big-tailed wolf in my Chen Mansion now?"
Since there was no compromise, Chen Fan was destined to break up his face without any scruples, and his words were like a knife piercing Jiang Biehe's heart.
"Young people are so arrogant! Today I'm going to teach you how to talk to your elders."
Hearing this, Jiang Biehe was furious. Is this a mockery of his eating soft food? No, this is insulting his character.
Jiang Biehe's figure moved, his right hand stretched out from a palm to a claw, and he grabbed Chen Fan's neck.
Chen Fan was not one to sit still and wait for death. Facing Jiang Biehe's attack, he stood up, stepped forward, twisted his waist, and punched.
Shadowless Divine Fist!
As fast as the wind, as fast as the wind.
In Jiang Biehe's astonishment, he was instantly hit on his paw, and a strong force suddenly came. Jiang Biehe stepped back continuously, leaving several footprints of different depths on the stone bricks under his feet.
Jiang Biehe was able to assume the position of leader of the Southern Martial Arts Alliance, and his martial arts skills were outstanding. However, he did not know that Chen Fan knew martial arts, so he only used three successes in his attack.
But Chen Fan was different. He usually went all out against the enemy, so he suffered a heavy loss with just such a move.
If Jiang Biehe hadn't reacted in time later and increased his internal power output, he might have just been knocked away by Chen Fan with a punch.
Jiang Biehe stood firm and suppressed the surging Qi in his body. He looked at Chen Fan in disbelief, as if he was meeting him for the first time.
"You actually know martial arts?"
At this time, Jiang Yuyan feigned surprise and looked at Chen Fan, as if she didn't know that Chen Fan knew martial arts.
Chen Fan looked at the shocked Jiang Biehe and raised the corner of his mouth slightly: "Is it strange?"
"Very surprised!"
Jiang Biehe took a deep look at Chen Fan. This boy must have some secrets, otherwise a commoner would not be able to achieve such strength in just a few years, even if he was rich.
"Chen Fan, please think clearly. If Yu Yan doesn't go, I will be guilty of deceiving the emperor, but the nine clans are implicated, and you, as my daughter and son-in-law, cannot escape.
Humph... I hope I'll think about it carefully. Don't blame me for not reminding you. "
Jiang Biehe glanced at Chen Fan and Jiang Yuyan, who was in trouble, waved his hand, and walked out of the hall.
Jiang Biehe knew that today's plan would not work. Although they had just exchanged a single move, Jiang Biehe knew very well that he could not defeat the opponent.
This guy is no longer an ordinary businessman who has no power and can be manipulated by him.
"My father-in-law, I won't keep you when you leave. By the way, it's two kilograms of the best Longjing. Don't dislike it, my father-in-law."
Chen Fan walked out of the hall and asked his servants to pack two kilograms of tea, then shouted to Jiang Biehe's back.
"Are you satisfied? This is all your plan, right?"
Chen Fan returned to the hall again and looked at Jiang Yuyan who was drinking tea leisurely and said.
"What did you say, husband? What did I plan? Didn't I already tell you that I wanted to be the princess?"
Jiang Yuyan pretended to be deaf and did not admit at all that she had plotted Chen Fan.
Of course, this could not be hidden from Chen Fan. He knew very well that Jiang Yuyan was using a conspiracy. If she agrees to become the imperial concubine, then she will take the lead and take revenge on whomever she wants.
If he disagrees, Jiang Biehe will "persuad" and guide Jiang Biehe to fight against him.
No matter who wins or loses in a fight between enemies, she won't suffer, and she will be happy with whoever she gets rid of.
"The agency was too clever and cost you your life."
Chen Fan warned Jiang Yuyan.
Jiang Yuyan smiled slightly with her big innocent eyes; "Thank you, husband, for reminding me."
Looking at the calm Jiang Yuyan, Chen Fan's anger ignited again. Remembering what just happened, he turned around and shouted;
"Come here, give me all the servants who were on duty in Madam's room today and sell them for thirty pieces. The leader will be killed with the cane. A group of people who are afraid of power but not morality."
.......
By the way, just when Chen Fan was sorting out his family affairs, Yangzhou Magistrate Meng Jiang's head was about to explode.
Liu Min, the chief arrester of Yangzhou, reported that the Qingxi Bandit's stronghold had been destroyed. Li Sui, the lieutenant of Qingxi County, was dead, as was his colleague Liu Min.
According to a gangster from Qingxi Mountain captured by officers and soldiers, the person who killed their boss was a young knight armed with a single sword.
Based on the comparison of wounds and time, Liu Min analyzed that the three cases may have been committed by the same person.
It's okay if the bandit is dead, but something happened to Qingxi County Lieutenant Yangzhou Tongzhi. What's going on? He was originally responsible for the "political achievements" of the village being massacred by bandits, but now things are getting better, and things have become even more troublesome, with two court officials dead.
Originally, Meng Jiang had made a lot of money, but he still wanted to get a promotion through his connections. Now, let alone promotion, even his current position is a bit unstable.
"A daring and lawless man, Liu Min, do you think that young knight could not bear to see the rise of bandits massacring villages, or did he do it for another purpose? Why did he kill fellow acquaintance Master Liu and county lieutenant Li Sui?"
Meng Jiang asked Liu Min, the chief arrester in the government office hall.
"Sir, I think it was purposeful and planned. It's normal to look down on mountain bandits. There are more people doing chivalry and righteousness these days, but to kill Qingxi County Lieutenant and Tongzhiliu is definitely not normal.
Therefore, these three cases must be related to a certain event, and they have an extraordinary connection. Liu Min replied.
"One is a bandit, and the other is an official of the imperial court. What does it have to do with it? Is it possible that there is some connection between the officials and the bandits?"
Meng Jiang speculated, thinking of what the Qingxi bandits had done recently, such as "from Suzhou to settling in Qingxi, kidnapping and killing Chen family members, and then slaughtering the village."
"Your Majesty, it may be the case." Liu Min quickly complimented.
Not to mention that the evidence now shows that there is collusion between the three parties, even if there is no collusion, Liu Min can do it. Otherwise, the first one above will deal with him, the chief police officer in charge of public security.
There are two different things between a court official being killed for no reason and colluding with bandits to be killed. Even if he is punished, he will be punished less.
Obviously Meng Jiang also thought of this. Regardless of whether it really matters or not, he should first take away as much responsibility as he can.
"Let's report it to the police first. Colleague Liu Qing and Qingxi County Lieutenant Li Sui colluded with Qingxi mountain bandit Liu Bao to harm their neighbors and committed the evil act of massacring villages and kidnapping people. They were killed by a passing young knight... ."
Soon, Meng Jiang and Liu Min tacitly determined the guilt of Liu Qing and the others. As for the young knight-errant...hehe...being traced...
There is no other way. As long as someone in the Jianghu murders is not caught on the spot, it is difficult to obtain evidence.
Therefore, generally speaking, the government will not offend people with high martial arts skills, and they are also afraid of the lawless people who come and go.
"Tell me, is it possible that someone from the Chen family did it?"
Just when Liu Min was about to leave, Meng Jiang suddenly asked.
