Chapter 38: The Black Hand Behind the Scenes

The back hall of Hangzhou government offices, flowers, stones, and birds are decorated with luxurious decorations as much as Kaifeng Prefecture, and they all depend on the wealth of Hangzhou.

In the living room, the prefect Wu Tianliang, as the master, sat in the stop position. In the main seat that originally belonged to him, a middle-aged man was sitting at this moment.

This middle-aged man is very ordinary in both dress and appearance. The only thing that is impressive is that there is a shocking scar on his face, which makes his image suddenly become very fierce.

He sat in the top position, slowly tasting the famous Hangzhou tea, as if waiting for Wu Tianliang's answer.

Wu Tianliang was sitting in danger and accompanied the middle-aged man to drink tea. It was not hot, but he kept taking out his handkerchief and rubbing the cold sweat from his sideburns.

After a long time, Wu Tianliang asked: "You have already arrested Su Li in prison as you wish. I don't know what to do next. Please tell me!"

"Good tea!" The middle-aged man just praised, then put down the tea bowl, looked at Wu Tianliang and suddenly asked, "What should I do next, do you still need me to teach you?"

Wu Tianliang smiled and said, "I'm sorry for being stupid and stupid. I don't know how to handle it. Please make it clear!"

The middle-aged man frowned and showed displeasure, but soon calmed down and said to Wu Tianliang: "You and I are all doing things for the sake of the adults. It is better not to make some clear words. As long as you sentence Zuli to death immediately, you will guarantee that you will have a bright future and a smooth career in the future."

Wu Tianliang immediately smiled and said, "I am naturally unlucky in my job. However, the Su family is the richest man in Hangzhou and has no criminal record. Although the Su family's merchant ship was robbed this time, it is not yet the final delivery period. With the Su family's strength, it may not be possible to make up for the supply of goods! Our government arrested him in prison and searched the Su family. Both of these are not in accordance with the law. If the death penalty is rashly sentenced to death, the Hangzhou business community will be dissatisfied!"

"Mr. Wu, don't behave like an official voice with me! My master has guessed your little thoughts long ago, so I'll tell you something. In addition to the Su family's merchant fleet, you can take 30% of the Yang family's real estate and real estate!" The middle-aged man suddenly lowered his face and said with great displeasure.

"This... this is really..." Wu Tianliang was cunning and wanted to get more benefits, but when he saw the other party's eyes showing fierce light, he immediately changed his mouth and said, "Of course it's okay! I will do it as you please tell the Lord on your behalf. I thank him for your kindness. I will definitely follow the leader of the adults in the future! Please have tea!"

The middle-aged man glared at Wu Tianliang with annoyance, with a look of contempt, but when Wu Tianliang agreed to do things, his goal was achieved.

After pulling the tea bowl, the middle-aged man suddenly remembered something and asked again: "On the way here, I heard that you were very close to a man named Zhang Yang. That man seemed to be the prime minister's nephew?!"

Wu Tianliang hurriedly said, "That Zhang Yang is indeed the prime minister's nephew, and the subordinate only has politeness with him on the scene, so there is no need to be close to him!"

The middle-aged man stared at Wu Tianliang for a while and said with a slight smile: "Then I won't say much! You also know the temper of our adults. He hates people who step on two boats the most!"

Wu Tianliang hurriedly wiped the cold sweat on his forehead and said, "What you taught is that the lower officials always keep in mind the teachings of the elders and dare not forget them!"

The middle-aged man nodded, and after whispering to the other party, he comforted him: "There may be a major change in the capital soon. The new and old factions in the court are in a delicate period. Our family urgently needs money to win over the party members. At this time, if Lord Wu can safely deliver the huge sum of the Su family to the adults, in the future, when the adults are less than ten thousand, you will be the top meritorious official and have a chance to enter the cabinet!"

As soon as he heard about entering the pavilion, Wu Tianliang's fat body suddenly trembled. He said with excitement: "The official must devote himself to the elders until his death!"

Wu Tianliang's performance satisfied the middle-aged man. He asked when he was idle: "I heard that Miss Su is born as beautiful as a flower and is known as the number one beauty in Hangzhou. Is it true?"

When men like to talk about women together, Wu Tianliang suddenly became interested and asked, "That's right! The Su family's name is Su Tingting. She is indeed as beautiful as a fairy. She is recognized as the number one beauty in Hangzhou. However, according to Xiaguan's experience, this woman's beauty can be called the best in Jiangnan, and is definitely not worse than the number one beauty in Beijing Tang Yanyan! Why, you are also interested in this woman!"

The middle-aged man was a little surprised and then smiled and said, "Just just ask casually. The men in the capital are either rich or noble. Sometimes money may not work, but beauty will always work!"

Wu Tianliang suddenly had a clear expression, but he sighed and said, "It would be easy to deal with this Su Tingting if she was an ordinary beauty. It's a pity that she is the beauty among beauties. Any man with a little family background in Hangzhou is wide open and his eyes are thinking about it!"

The middle-aged man seemed more interested when he heard this. He asked, "So, Lord Wu is also thinking about her?"

Wu Tianliang smiled and said, "If the official said he didn't think about it, don't say you believe it, I don't believe it myself! But the official is still self-aware, just make some money. As for Su Tingting, she might either fall into the hands of King Mu or Zhang Yang. However, there is a thorn named Yang Fan making trouble. It is still unknown who will fall into the family!"

When the middle-aged man heard the word Yang Fan, his body trembled violently, his hands trembled, and the tea bowl almost landed on the ground.

Wu Tianliang looked at the six directions and quickly captured this small detail. He didn't say anything, waiting for the other party to ask first.

Sure enough, the middle-aged man calmed down and asked hurriedly: "What did you say just now? What Yang Fan? Thorn the head?"

Wu Tianliang rolled his eyes and asked tentatively: "Do you recognize Yang Fan?"

"Don't ask if you shouldn't!" the middle-aged man slapped the coffee table and shouted sternly.

Wu Tianliang was startled. Seeing that the other party's eyes were fierce and he was about to kill someone, he didn't dare to talk nonsense at the moment, and hurriedly said: "It is said that Yang Fan is a thorny person because this person's appearance has ruined many people's good things! Especially when he even dared to offend Zhang Yang, looking at the entire Hangzhou city, who dared to offend Zhang Yang? Yesterday, Zhang Yang lost all his money in the casino, and even had one toe chopped off. And Captain Chen, the right-hand man of the lower official, also had his hands chopped off because of him!"

The middle-aged man frowned more and more, and said in confusion: "How can a mere slutty man beat Zhang Yang? Even an old man like Captain Chen is in trouble, so you don't care?"

Wu Tianliang smiled bitterly and said, "If it were someone else, I would have put him in prison for a long time. How could he be allowed to be arrogant and arrogant in my eyes? But a Tang sword on this person is worth 200,000 yuan, how could it be that ordinary people can own? So I secretly investigated his background, and found out that he suddenly appeared in Jingde Temple. I believe that other forces dare not act rashly because of his mysterious origin. Otherwise, how could this kid be arrogant in Hangzhou?"

The middle-aged man's face suddenly sank and shouted, "Are you saying that this young man named Yang Fan appeared in Jingde Temple out of thin air?"

Wu Tianliang nodded with certainty and said, "That's right! Yang Fan's household registration and identity cards are newly handled by someone in my Hangzhou Prefecture, and he has no way to guide him at all, so it is impossible for him to come in from another place!"

The middle-aged man's face became even more gloomy, and his scar face kept shaking, and he looked worried.

At this moment, the servant came in to report that Su Tingting and Yang Fan jointly asked for a meeting.

Wu Tianliang frowned. He knew their purpose and didn't want to see him, but the middle-aged man suddenly said, "You let them in, I want to see the man named Yang Fan!"
