Chapter 34 I can’t swallow this!
"When I walked in just now, I saw Yuan Hui fanning Yuan Ba. Why are you so selectively deaf? Not only did I see it, but Eunuch Chang also saw it. Is this how your Ministry of Justice usually handles cases?" Huangfu Chou's voice was cold.
When Eunuch Chang heard what Huangfu Chou had said, he nodded.
Zhao Tang, who was kneeling on the ground, trembled like a sieve and said, "Huangfu Ling... I... I will arrest them right away..."
"Sir Huangfu, it's unfair...it's...it's them..."
Before Yuan Shan finished speaking, Huangfu Chou said coldly, "Unjust? Wasn't it you, the Yuan family, who tore down the door? You caused trouble for them and got dealt with by them. You still have the nerve to cry out for injustice? Do you feel wronged? Otherwise, let me personally judge it?"
Yuan Shan was so frightened that he seemed to have lost his soul. He waved his hands and said, "No... no... no need... let Minister Zhao come... let Minister Zhao come!"
Xie Xunfeng stood up and said to Yuan Shan, "Master Yuan, didn't I ask you to bring the money here privately? You want to do this in a fair and impartial manner, right?"
Yuan Shan's face looked so miserable that he would have dared to confront anyone else.
But only this Huangfu Chou!
Even the emperor was afraid of Huangfu Chou.
How come this fool is together with this crazy man?
"I... I want to settle it privately... I want to settle it privately... Minister Zhao is so busy, I won't bother him... Xie Hongzi, can you tell me how to settle it privately ?" Yuan Shan was completely scared.
"He just said he wanted to slap himself ten thousand times. How many are left?" Xie Xunfeng asked Guan Chong who was standing beside him.
"There are still about 9,900 left." Guan Chong said randomly.
"Bullshit, I slapped my second brother at least more than 1,600 times, I counted them in my mind..." Yuan Hui said anxiously.
The onlookers were suddenly in an uproar, and Yuan Hui wanted to explain.
Yuan Shan scolded him, "Shut up, you beast."
Xie Xunfeng said, "Let's say you have 2,000. There are still 8,000 left. If converted into silver taels, that would be 800 taels of gold. This door would be 100 taels for you, a total of 900 taels! Any objections?"
Yuan Shan had a bitter face. It was indeed their Yuan family, and nine hundred taels was not a small amount.
However, looking at Huangfu Chou's attitude now, he is determined to support Xie Xunfeng.
"No problem... no problem..." Yuan Shan said with a bitter face.
After saying that, he turned to Zhao Tang, whose face was pale.
"Okay, Minister Zhao. That's fine. You can take your people back!"
Zhao Tang knelt on the ground, looked up tremblingly and glanced at Huangfu Chou.
Seeing that Huangfu Chou didn't say anything, he quickly took his men and ran away.
Yuan Shan originally wanted to ask Yuan Qing to help him, but after Yuan Qing saw Huangfu Chou coming out, he didn't know where he ran away.
He knew that he was bound to suffer this loss.
Yuan Shan was flexible and said to Xie Xunfeng, "Thank you, Mr. Hostage. I will send someone to deliver the money tomorrow... We can leave now."
Xie Xunfeng said to Yuan Shan, "Tell your prodigal son not to bother me again. I just feel sorry for your money. Last time I lost 1,000 taels of gold, and this time it's 900 taels... I really feel sorry for your money."
Yuan Shan seemed unaware of the previous compensation of 1,200 taels of gold , and stared at Yuan Hui with wide eyes.
Yuan Hui lowered his head instantly.
Yuan Shan stood on the ground with a pale face, pointing at Yuan Hui, and fainted from anger without saying a word.
Fortunately, Yuan Yao was there to support him, otherwise he would have fallen flat on his face.
"Hurry up and help hold on!" Yuan Yao said, and Yuan Hui stepped forward.
Some soldiers supported Yuan Ba.
The onlookers also dispersed.
The family returned in a somewhat embarrassed state.
Seeing this, Eunuch Chang said, "Okay, thank you, hostage, Huangfu Ling, then I will return to the palace."
Xie Xunfeng bowed.
After Eunuch Chang left, Xie Xunfeng said to Huangfu Chou, "Huangfu Ling, thank you for your help..."
Huangfu Chou said calmly, "I just told you what I saw. I have no intention of helping you. If you need help investigating the case, come to the prison department to find me."
Having said that, Huangfu Chou turned and left.
Guan Chong looked at Xie Xunfeng with an admiring expression on his face and said, "Brother, you are amazing! You should know that crazy Huangfu Chou has never helped anyone. You are the first one! I really admire myself so much. It is right to recognize you as my brother!"
Xie Xunfeng said to Guan Chong, "Thank you very much today. If it weren't for your servants, the things I want would not be made so quickly. After this batch of goods is sold, I will take out 10% and you can reward these servants."
Guan Chong patted his chest and said, "Brother, these are what a younger brother should do... It's free!"
When Xie Xunfeng walked in, the servants had already started cleaning up the remaining seafood.
"Brother, what can we do about the boast you made? How is it possible to solve those assassination cases in seven days?" Guan Chong asked Xie Xunfeng worriedly.
Xie Xunfeng revealed a mysterious smile and said, "If I say I can do it, then I can do it!"
…
Yuan Mansion
Yuan Shan and Yuan Ba were both lying on the bed, and two doctors were treating them.
Yuan Shan was extremely angry, while Yuan Ba was simply stunned by the slap.
"Yuan Hui, I've told you so many times. Don't provoke that idiot. Why don't you listen?" Yuan Yao pointed at Yuan Hui and cursed angrily.
Yuan Hui lowered his head and said, "Brother, it was Second Brother who asked me what happened to my face. He knew we were bullied and insisted on revenge... I... I didn't want to...Brother, we can't be cowards. Today, that fool Xie made our Yuan family look so embarrassed! Are we just going to swallow it like this?"
Yuan Yao said with a dark face, "What if I don't swallow it? Our Longyang Yuan family is already weak... Now, I have been publicly expelled by Mrs. Wen."
Yuan Hui said bitterly, "Brother, you can swallow this breath, but I can't!"
Yuan Yao said in a cold voice, "What can you do if you can't swallow it? This is the consequence!"
"When have we, the Yuan family, ever suffered such injustice? Brother Yuan Yao, you can swallow this. But I can't!" As he spoke, Yuan Qing, dressed in a white robe, walked in.
Yuan Yao saw Yuan Qing and said, "Brother Yuan Qing, you don't know..."
Before Yuan Yao could speak, Yuan Qing said, "No matter where he comes from, he can't humiliate our Yuan family like this. I just went to the Ministry of Justice to ask, Huangfu Chou and that Xie Hanzi have no connection. It's just that Xie Hanzi boasted in the court today that he would solve the assassination case within a month. That's why he showed up there!"
Yuan Hui was so moved when he heard Yuan Qing say this that he knelt down in front of Yuan Qing and said, "Brother Yuan, if you, the Jiaodong Yuan family, are willing to help us... torturing that stupid Xie would be like playing... Brother Yuan, you must help us get our reputation back."
Yuan Qing nodded and said, "Of course, after all, we are all members of the Yuan family!"
