I became the villain's deceased wife

Song Tian bowed to County Magistrate Xu, lowered his head and retreated to the back.

Huang Jiadong frowned, looked at Song Tian in disbelief, and did not stand up to greet her.

"If the county magistrate wants to check the accounts, he can just ask Manager Cai. I don't need to follow him..."

I thought, this is the reinforcements Song Tian invited?

You may not be qualified enough to deal with him!

Xu Changshou didn't care about his rudeness and walked straight to the opposite side and sat down.

Zhang Yougui, who was standing behind him, was holding an official sword and standing opposite Seventeen.

"I'm afraid Mr. Huang will have to cooperate this time. The court has issued a document saying that some people in the local area are selling private salt through the canal transport, disrupting the market order, and they must be severely punished.

The canal transportation in Fenglin County is controlled by Mr. Huang.

If you don't come forward to clarify, I'm afraid it will be difficult to report this matter!"

Huang Jiadong was stunned again.

Canal transport?

Private salt?

Does this guy know everything?

still is……

He turned his head and glanced at Song Tian again.

No, it can't be her.

He has always been extremely cautious in the private salt trade, and apart from himself, even people with the surname Cai are not aware of the secrets involved.

What's more, she is just a little woman who has nothing to do with him.

"Hehehe...

County Magistrate Xu must be joking.

I?

Smuggling salt!

I wouldn't dare to do that even if you gave me the courage!"

The last time he went to Beijing, his uncle did warn him to be careful.

Someone has already set his sights on the grain transport business, and I'm afraid someone will report the matter to Your Majesty.

He was told to act in secret.

But how did Xu Changshou hear the news?

"Mr. Huang is joking.

Of course, I'm not saying that you are involved in the smuggling of salt.

It's just a melon field and a plum tree.

Since the court wants to investigate this matter thoroughly, you must show your attitude.

Bring the canal transport accounts to the surface for everyone to see. If there is no illegal salt, everyone will be relieved!"

One of the reasons he came this time was to help Song Tian out of trouble.

On the one hand, I do want to thoroughly investigate the issue of smuggled salt.

Yun Haichao had sent him a secret letter a few days ago, saying that smuggled salt was flowing into the capital, and upon investigation it was likely that it was flowing through the waterway in Zhuolin.

Let him pay close attention to Huang Jiadong.

If this matter is handled well, it will also be a highlight in his official career.

Maybe you will get a chance to be promoted because of this.

Even the sea of ​​clouds reminded him.

Huang Jiadong has a strong background and may have powerful people in Beijing to support him, so he should act with caution and within his means.

But Xu Changshou had been a cowardly official for so many years, and he had just been slapped in the face by Song Tian, ​​a weak woman who was not even capable of tying a chicken.

It's time to regain your ambition and show your skills.

How can I retreat?

So, after receiving Song Tian’s message for help, he came here without hesitation.

I was also wondering.

How did Song Tian, ​​a common woman who ran a small shop, know that there was something fishy in the canal transportation?

Huang Jiadong had something to hide, so he didn't dare to challenge Xu Changshou too much.

He responded with a guilty smile:

"Easy to say.

Easy to say!

Huang has always abided by the law and conducted business conscientiously.

"I am not afraid of any crooked shadow. County Magistrate Xu can investigate however he wants!"

He remembered Zhu Kang's threats to the county magistrate.

“I heard that the eldest son of the Xu family will be killed next year.

In fact, he and Xie Lang were both candidates in the same examination.

I wonder how your son is doing with his studies?"

Xu Changshou had a gloomy face.

I thought that these people were all going too far!

Of course he couldn't let these people control him anymore.

“Mr. Huang, you’re too polite.

My son is stupid, but at least he is willing to work hard.

A few days ago, I was appreciated by Lord Yunhai Chaoyun and was given a special teacher.

This time, there is still a chance of winning. "

He had expected this day to come, so he contacted Yun Haichao through Yang Shucai and hired a bodyguard for his son.

In this way, no matter what he does, he will not be constrained by threats.

Huang Jiadong didn't expect that he had this skill.

He glared fiercely at Song Tian who was standing beside him.

It’s all this evil woman’s fault. If she hadn’t provoked the Yunhaichao,

This bunch of ants will never find anyone who dares to challenge him!

Although the Grand Tutor is behind my uncle, it is not a good idea to bring such a small matter to the table and ask the Grand Tutor to take action.

'Hehehe!'

He smiled sarcastically and bowed to Xu Changshou.

"Then I wish your son success in the imperial examination and the top prize in the imperial examination!"

Having said that, he was no longer in the mood to challenge Song Tian.

I have to go back quickly to arrange the canal transportation.

Don't let this blind Xu Changshou find out anything.

"I suddenly feel unwell and need to go back to the mansion to find a doctor to see me."

As he said that, he took Seventeen's arm and stood up with some difficulty, glancing at Song Tian with sidelong eyes.

"I'm afraid this restaurant of Madam Song's is a bit unclean. You must be careful next time, don't let anyone die from eating here!"

Song Tian clenched her fists.

Is he - threatening?

"If Magistrate Xu wants to check the accounts, I'm here for you anytime.

I'm sorry I can't accompany you today!"

Having said this, he left with his group of guards.

Song Tian hurried forward and saluted Xu Changshou:

"Thank you, Mr. Magistrate, for rescuing me!"

Xu Changshou waved his hand:

"Madam Song has been very helpful to me, and it is only right that I return the favor."

As he spoke, he looked at Song Tian in confusion:

"How did Madam Song know that there was something fishy about the canal transportation?"

He had just received a secret letter from Yun Haichao.

Song Tian smiled embarrassedly:

"I went to visit you earlier with Manager Yang regarding the cooperative, and I saw the word 'Cao Yun' written on the file you brought.

Now that Huang Jiadong has found him, he is in a dilemma and in a hurry, he wants to use this as a summoning tablet.

Please forgive me, sir!"

Naturally, she couldn't say that it was Xie Yunzhe who saw it.

Now that he has only borrowed momentum once, Huang Jiadong seems to have some doubts.

It’s better to be careful in the future!

Xu Changshou shook his head helplessly.

I thought she really knew some inside information.

"That was a regular document issued by the imperial court. I didn't expect that Madam Song would read it!"

Song Tian smiled shyly.

She really had no other choice.

If Huang Jiadong really keeps targeting her, this small shop will have to close down in a few days.

She has a whole family to support.

I thought Xu Changshou would secretly create some trouble for Huang Jiadong so that he would not be in the mood to keep causing trouble for her.

Unexpectedly, the magistrate was also a straightforward boy. He rushed over and questioned him face to face.

I don’t know what Huang Jiadong would think.

"Mr. Magistrate, by asking him about the illegal salt transport in person, haven't you alerted him to the danger?

He is prepared this time, how can you investigate?"

Song Tian couldn't help but worry for Xu Changshou.

However, people are not worried at all.

"I just want to alert the enemy so that he can reveal his true intentions."

He waved his hand irritably.

No matter what, Huang Jiadong is a tough nut to crack.

He was afraid that in the end he would end up losing more than he gained.

"Madam Song, don't worry about this matter. I know what's going on."

With that he said goodbye and left.

Zhang Yougui stayed to explain to Song Tian.

“Although Huang Jiadong’s water transport company is affiliated with Fenglin County, he has an exemption certificate issued by the Beijing water transport company.

Generally speaking, unless there is a special need, the magistrate has no right to check his accounts."

Only then did Song Tian understand why Xu Changshou announced so loudly that there were problems with the canal transportation.

Because this is a special situation that allows one to enter the inner world of the canal transport.

In order to prove his innocence, Huang Jiadong would not dare to easily offend him and allow him to check the accounts on his own.

But now that the matter has been brought to light.

What else can Xu Changshou find out if he goes there again?
