0102 I don't see Mount Tai

Yan's mansion in Wucheng is adjacent to the county government. The courtyard wall is high and looks ordinary on the outside, but there is a unique world inside. Just behind the wall, there is a corridor for the wall. In case of crisis, hundreds of servants will guard it accordingly and can keep the brigade of thousands out of the wall.

The buildings in the courtyard are also very distinctive. The four viewing buildings each occupy a corner, which allows you to see the movements and stillness inside and outside, especially the viewing buildings in the northwest corner, which puts the situation inside the county government under monitoring.

Zhu Gong sat in a hall in Yan Mansion, feeling quite nervous, as if he was sitting on pins and needles.

The interior decoration of this hall shows the rich nature of Yan's family, with colorful beams and colorful walls, exquisite patterns, utensils, gold and silver, mixed with pearls and jade carvings. The colorful coral placed in front of the screen is several feet high, decorated with jade leaves and beads and fruits, and the white jade bucket is shining underneath. If a breeze blows, the treasure light will flow, as if it is like a god among immortals.

Being in such an environment makes people feel ashamed of embarrassment. Zhu Gong and Yan have conflicts, so how could he be calm in his heart? If it weren't for Shen Zhezi's tough orders, he wouldn't dare to enter the Yan family again if he died.

In the past six months, in order to avoid Yan's debt collection, Zhu Gong rarely appeared in front of others. Even the official position of the magistrate of Guzhen County was abandoned and hid under the protection of Wukang's family. In the middle of the year, a group of bandits rushed into his manor in Guzhen County and smashed it. It was obviously Yan's venting his anger.

Today, he will climb the Yan family again. In addition to Shen Zhezi's forced force, Zhu Gong is also unable to bear the daily fear and fear of life, and wants to make a conclusion. He can't hide himself, but his two sons cannot hide every day. Only by completely eradicating the Yan family can his family have a clear sky!

While Zhu Gong was thinking, he rushed into the hall with a burly figure and a beard. He looked like a good person. He was Yan Ping's younger brother Yan An. Although Yan An was white and had no official position, he was rough and polite. He was a guy who was disgusted throughout Wuxing.

When he entered the hall, Yan An's face was filled with anger. He rushed to him, kicked Zhu Gong away the desk in front of him, and shouted: "A traitor who is traitor, dares to come to my house again! You are really not afraid of death if you see no one in my house?"

When his legs and feet were hit by the strong wind, Zhu Gong subconsciously leaned back and avoided, his cheeks twitched slightly. Then he remembered Shen Zhezi's advice again, and immediately calmed down and sneered: "Who can ignore the major matters of life and death? Since I dared to visit the mansion, I would definitely not be harmed by Yan Jun. If Yan Jun can give up his past grudges, I will talk to you calmly about a wealthy matter. Otherwise, I can only say goodbye."

"You, a dog who is stranded, still has to hide from Shen. Your family cannot survive. How dare you talk to me about wealth and honor?"

Yan An also sneered when he heard this, pointing at Zhu Gongli and said, "Since you dare to come to my house today, don't expect to leave easily! If you don't return the goods owed to me, you can stay!"

"What's wrong with me being the son-in-law of Shen? Yan Jun also knows that the Shen family is behind me. If you destroy my family, how can you resolve this hatred? Since this is the case, you might as well say bluntly that if you keep a guest, you can keep a guest. If you dare to harm me, you will be able to encircle your family and settle the matter!"

With Shen Zhezi assured as a backer, Zhu Gong was also much tougher and said tit-for-tat.

Hearing this, Yan An's face suddenly became gloomy. In the middle of the year, his family was unable to find Zhu Gong, so they sent strong men to smash the Zhu family manor to vent their anger. However, without hesitation, the Shen family sent more than a thousand troops to rush into the door of Wucheng Yan's house and blocked his family for several days before leaving.

This incident made Yan's face swept away, but he did not dare to respond too aggressively. After all, he was impulsive before the New Year and sent someone to attack Chen Chong's son. Although it was fruitless, he also offended the Shen family. The Shen family covered up Zhu Gong and wanted to use this to provoke him. If his family still didn't know how to restrain themselves, they would be afraid that the old things would happen again.

"Zhu Gongpin, you are also a descendant of a famous family. It's really shameful to be a Shen family dolphin dog!"

Yan An did not dare to really harm Zhu Gong, but he was naturally sarcastic and sat in the seat while sneering.

"Shiju is my inner brother. Now he is the honorary master of Fangzhen. He is treated with courtesy and is driven by it. I am willing to accept it."

Although Zhu Gong deeply hated Yan An in his heart, he refused to admit defeat.

"The Lord of Fang Zhen? Ha, I don't know when I can! What is your intention to come to my house? Now I'm finished speaking. Could it be that the Lord of Yu came to Wuxing again, making the Shen family unable to rest assured and want to marry my family and protect themselves?"

Yan An shook his head and looked extremely disdainful. Yu Tan was the county chief last time, so he showed malicious intentions to the Shen family. Today he returned and became the prefect. It is conceivable how much criticism the Shen family would bear. Although he was also unhappy about Yu Tan's appointment as prefect, Yan An was extremely happy when he thought that the Shen family would suffer more.

Zhu Gong came from Wukang. He knew that Yu Tan and Shen had an agreement, but when he heard Yan An's clever inference, he smiled in his heart, but said seriously: "Jun Yan is wrong. The scholar lives in Kuaiji and joins the Yu family. When Yu envoys come to govern Wuxing this time, the Shen family welcomes him happily. I was ordered to come because Shen is interested in selling part of the estate and land, and turn over wealth and manpower to Kuaiji to create a situation. If Yan is interested, I can introduce it on my behalf and talk to each other in detail."

"The Shen family wants to sell the estate property?"

Hearing this, Yan An's face turned solemn, and then he couldn't help but think more. Tianmu Manor was the foundation of building a family. Even though his family made a business of cooking salt, he still missed the merger and cultivated the fields. Last year, the Shen family's grain shortage was short of food last year, and his family helped fuel the fire and paid a lot of money for the Shen family's fertile land.

Unexpectedly, the Shen family took the initiative to sell the land. Yan An couldn't believe his ears. After pondering for a moment, he said sternly: "Is what you said true? If you lie to me again, the Shen family will not be able to protect you!"

"Everything is true. The Shen family is willing to cut eight farms north of Tiao River, totaling more than 2,000 hectares. I am only worried that Yan's family lacks financial resources. After visiting Yan, they will go to other people's houses to inquire." Zhu Gong said with a firm expression.

"More than two thousand hectares?"

Hearing this, Yan An couldn't help but gasp, and then his attitude towards Zhu Gong also changed: "I cannot decide this matter. My brother is visiting the envoy at the county government. When he returns to the mansion, I will talk to him in detail. Please stay at the mansion for a while and my family will give you an answer as soon as possible."

Zhu Gong's face was a little embarrassed: "More than two thousand acres, it's not a decimal. I didn't underestimate the Zun Mansion. The scholars forced me to be in a hurry and wanted to transfer the wealth to Kuaiji before the spring, which was really undespite."

"Haha, so Mr. Zhu doesn't have to go to other families. If my family can't raise enough money, there is no need to mention other companies!"

Yan An looked at Zhu Gong again, his attitude was completely different. If this transaction could be completed, what would Zhu Gong have to default on his wealth earlier? However, he was also suspicious about why the Shen family was eager to sell such a large amount of land and did not dare to kill the matter. But before this, Zhu Gong must not contact other families again!

Trapped Zhu Gong in the mansion, Yan An hurriedly left the house and rushed towards the county government, unable to even wait for the servant to inform the eldest brother.

Not far from the county government, Yan An saw his brother Yan Ping walking out of the county government with anger remaining on his face, and he looked quite angry, and he hurriedly met him.

Before Yan An could speak, Yan Ping had already pointed at the county government gate and cursed without any concealment.

"The old man thinks that I am no one in Wuxing! How his family is in Kuaiji and forced Shen Shiju to do something wrong! I returned home in a mess before the New Year, but now I dare to be rampant!"

Yan An quickly asked the reason, and found out that as soon as Yu Tan took office, he abolished many county officials arranged by Yan's family in the past few years, and wanted to investigate the county government officials and households, military households and fields. This undoubtedly hit the Yan family with a head-on sword. No wonder the eldest brother was so angry.

Yan An moved his heart and said, "Is the old thief so tough, has more powerful support? The Shen family suddenly sent Zhu Gong to discuss the sale of the land. Could it be that the situation is already in danger?"

"Go back home to talk in detail." Yan Ping's face turned solemn when he heard this, and signaled Yan An to silence.

The two brothers led a cadre back to the house hurriedly. Yan Ping was not in a hurry to see Zhu Gong. After hearing Yan An tell the details, he pondered: "The situation is overturning, and Shen Shijuqiang is going to stand out. Although he temporarily lives in Fangzhen, it is really difficult to maintain it. I went to the Lu Mansion to visit the second minister. I knew that Taiwan Province had complaints about Shen Shiju. Now that his enemy has made a comeback, he is now eager to sell land to raise money, which shows that the situation is already very dangerous."

After hearing this, Yan An sneered: "His family is just a local tyrant. He wants to fight with all directions. Now that the power is not strong enough, he is causing trouble for himself!"

They are both rich families in the county and have a feud with each other. Seeing that the Shen family is soaring, Yan An is naturally quite savory. At this time, he heard that the Shen family was about to suffer, and he was in a good mood: "In this way, we should not be greedy for temporary benefits and are eager to agree to Zhu Gong, but instead provide the Shen family with wealth to overcome difficulties."

Yan Ping shook his head and said, "I wish I could eradicate the Shen family at this time and then. However, Yutan is coming in a fierce momentum, as if he wants to show off his power in my hometown. At present, we cannot rush to attack the Shen family, so that our villagers can make their own way and give the old thief of Yutan a chance to take advantage of."

After pondering for a while, Yan Pingcai said again: "When you meet Zhu Gong later, you might as well agree first. There is no need to negotiate the price. I just say that my family needs to raise money and hold him back first, and there is no need to force him to stay in my house. If Shen really sells the land, it is impossible for him to contact my family. I will check what he does to distinguish the authenticity."

After hearing this, Yan An nodded repeatedly. He knew that he was not a wise man, and he always followed his elder brother and followed his advice.

"Also, I have sent a message to the Jiaxing family, mobilizing the wealthy and consignment personnel to Wuxing. If the Shen family is really anxious to sell it, it will not fall into the hands of other families. We must buy the fields before spring, so as not to miss the whole season of farming."

Yan Ping is good at managing his family and is very smart. After explaining these, he said again: "If the Shen family is really sold, then his family will have a hard time. If the Yutan man is willing to temporarily restrain himself, I don't mind temporarily joining with him to completely eliminate the Shen family! Shen Chong attacked me, and his son mocked me for his grievances. Once he resolved it, he buried his father and son in the same cave!"

Zhu Gong had no actual gains in the Yan family, so he first sent a servant to send a message to Shen Zhezi, and then transferred to another family to visit according to the plan.

Shen Zhezi received a message from Zhu Gong outside the city. He knew that the Yan family had already entered the city, so he left with confidence and continued to go north to invite people to participate in the feast of dividing the Yan family. Now it is only the beginning, and the Yan family can still hold on. Only when the salt-drying method spreads will his family be anxious.

It is not difficult to bring the Yan family into the turmoil. Even though his family is rich, they are powerful and powerful. They are neither aware of the strange changes in political struggles nor have a comprehensive consideration. These defects are usually too mysterious. Only when facing a truly life-and-death decision will they cover people's eyes like Mount Tai.
