The Prodigal Son of the Empire

"Haha!" Wang Kang burst out laughing, and then he changed the subject and asked again: "Then let me ask Mr. Li again, how should we deal with the fact that the grain is secretly harvested to drive up the price of grain, and the people don't care about making huge profits?"

Hearing this, Li Yu's face changed a little. He took a deep look at Wang Kang and said lightly, "This is even more impossible!"

"Impossible? It seems that Mr. Li is old and has a bad memory," Wang Kang mocked, "Then I will remind Mr. Li!"

"Enough!" At this time Li Yu suddenly shouted: "These things you said are all nonsense, and what you want to say now is that you instructed your subordinates to beat Sun Yuanwai!"

However, Wang Kang ignored him and said directly: "Last autumn, the crops were in short supply due to the severe drought, and the Jin Risheng Grain Shop took the opportunity to buy the stored grain, and sold it at a high price when the winter was severe!"

"Pricing is several times higher than normal, and how many farmers are suffering from hunger and cold because they cannot afford food,"

Wang Kang's voice is also getting colder: "What's even more ridiculous is that they sell their own grain at a low price, and finally buy it from others at a high price."

No matter how hard it was for Li Yu to maintain his composure, his face finally changed. Jin Risheng's grain store was a private grain store on the surface, but in fact the manager of the grain store was his distant cousin.

Few people knew about this relationship, and this grain store was opened specifically to sell the grain purchased by Sun Buju.

This prodigal son, how could this prodigal son know so many secrets?

"What you said has nothing to do with me, I don't know!" Li Yu said coldly.

"You joined the military as an officer, Si Tian, ​​and Sicang are all under your jurisdiction, don't you know?" Wang Kang sneered, "I think Mr. Li is really confused!"

"Bold! How dare you talk to Mr. Li like that!" At this moment, Cao Canjun shouted suddenly.

"Then who gave you the courage to talk to our young master like this!" Liu Jin stepped forward.

He had long been displeased with Cao Canjun. Wang Kang was assassinated that day, and there were indications that Cao Canjun must have colluded with the assassin.

Liu Jin shouted coldly, and then the private soldiers of the Earl's Mansion surrounded him. Cao Canjun's complexion changed when he saw the situation, and the soldiers and yamen also stepped forward to confront each other.

Cold light and sharp blade, soldiers face each other!

The atmosphere froze instantly!

Li Yu looked at Wang Kang with gloomy eyes, his face was cloudy and uncertain, and Wang Kang was casual at first, as if he was saying, do you really want to do it?come?

"Back off!" Li Yu waved his hand after a while, he was persuaded, this prodigal son is simply a stunned young man.

If there is an armed conflict, the nature will change. In this sensitive period, who dares to bear the consequences.

"Hmph," Wang Kang smiled disdainfully, and signaled Liu Jin to back down.

He knew that this hometown was too cowardly, such a big official position, obeying a prince of the governor, what can he do?

"Wang Kang, don't go too far! You can't get around the beating of Sun Yuanwai... Don't think that you can do whatever you want because you are the son of the earl!" Li Yu's face was full of anger.

This prodigal son is far more arrogant than he imagined!

"You say I do whatever I want?" Wang Kang took a step forward and looked directly at Li Yu, "Then I will ask Mr. Li the last question, conniving relatives, collusion between government and businessmen to make huge profits, knowing the law and breaking the law, how to deal with the life of a worthless person!"

Once these words came out, no matter how difficult it was for Li Yu to calm down, this prodigal son asked him four questions, and the last question fell on him!

Chapter 1 I want him to die

I underestimated him. I originally thought that this prodigal son was a reckless young man, but now it seems that he is not at all.

He came fully prepared!

All kinds of things are said to be inconsequential, and even the names and acres of the people who forcibly occupied the land are clearly stated. How did he know it?

Now he is pointing the finger at him again, conniving at the collusion between relatives, government and businessmen, and oppressing the lives of the city people.

To be honest, it's true.

If Sun Yuanwai didn't have him behind him, he wouldn't dare to be so presumptuous, and he even sent Cao Shenjun.

Those who refuse to accept the crime directly and arbitrarily, resist?If there is resistance and pressure, how can the people beat the officials?

These things are done in an extremely concealed manner, even if there are insiders, who would dare to reveal it?

He is the secretary of Yangzhou City and joins the military, who dares to offend him!

But this prodigal son dared, he was the son of the earl, so naturally he didn't take it into account, and he had a problem with Dong Yiwu, the governor.

It just so happens that he is an official of the governor's line, which is a bit tricky. Today is different from the past. Since Emperor Zhao came to the throne, he has been in charge of people's livelihood and government. If such a thing is known, he will never be tolerated, and no one can protect him!

Li Yu thought to himself, and said: "These are just your words without any evidence. I hope Young Master Kang will be careful and slander a fifth-rank imperial official. You have thought about the consequences!"

"At that time, even your father won't be able to protect you!" Li Yu snapped, his voice was heavy, full of threats!

threaten me?Wang Kang was disdainful, and suddenly approached Li Yu, and said in a voice that only the two of them could hear: "Master Li really thinks that I can't produce evidence?"

"Forcibly occupying so many fertile fields, involving dozens of households and dozens of people, can you really hide everything? If you want to investigate carefully, can you handle it?"

Wang Kang said coldly again: "When Emperor Zhao strictly controlled the people's livelihood and officials, and cracked down on corrupt officials, there was a censor's pen in Kyoto to remonstrate and attack books, and Jinyiwei was set up to supervise hundreds of officials in the inner dynasty. Now the supervisor is still in Xinfeng County, Yangzhou. What do you think will happen to you if this matter explodes!"

Wang Kang's words made Li Yu's heart tremble suddenly, every word struck his heart.

Seeing Li Yu's changing expression, Wang Kang was even more disdainful, dare to threaten me?Let me threaten you first!

Li Yu pretended to be calm and said: "You really think that I am the only one behind this matter, your thinking is too simple!"

"I know that there are a large number of officials behind you, even Dong Yiwu, but under the current situation, do you think Dong Yiwu can handle this kind of thing?"

Wang Kang sneered and said, "Besides Dong Yiwu, there is the prefect Luo Chuannan, and even Xuan Pinghou. Who do you have? Dongchuang incident happened, you are an abandoned child!"

"Don't forget what happened to the Liu family, you checked it yourself!"

Wang Kang's words made Li Yu sweat even more. He looked at Wang Kang in disbelief. He knew so much.

How could this be a prodigal son, what he said directly pinched his seven inches.

That's right, if it really got out, with Dong Yiwu's personality, he would definitely be thrown out, and he wouldn't even be implicated in the slightest.

Because he is in charge of everything, Dong Yiwu is only responsible for collecting money!

Li Yu's face was cloudy and uncertain, he was thinking about how to deal with it, this prodigal son knew more than he imagined.

Now the governor and the earl's mansion are fighting openly and secretly, and they are all trying to catch the pigtails of both sides...

No, I can't take this risk. Today is different from the past, Li Yu has made a decision in his heart, he looks at Wang Kangdao, "Today's matter, just let it go!"

Is this cowardly?Wang Kang was stunned, this Li Yu was indeed a worthless guy, I really don't know how such a person can sit in such a high position.

Even Liu Shan is not as good as he has yet to use his real back move.
