Chapter 143 Miss Yulu is a kind-hearted lady.

The sound of bamboo music rang out, and the beautiful dancers released their graceful postures.

"Master Yang, come on, drink!"

Sha Pingchuan invited Yang Zhengshan to drink.

Yang Zhengshan picked up the wine glass, "Thank you for your hospitality, I am really honored."

The two drank and talked happily.

Speaking of which, Yang Zhengshan was not a very talkative person. If he was asked to talk about great principles, he would pour out a lot of things, but if he was asked to make the atmosphere humorous, he would be done.

But Sha Pingchuan was a person who was good at this. Even if Yang Zhengshan felt a little uncomfortable, he felt very comfortable under his warm hospitality without any restraint.

After three rounds of wine, the bamboo music gradually stopped, and the beautiful dancers also stopped.

"Yulu, come here!"

Sha Pingchuan summoned the leading dancer.

"Yulu greets Daddy, greets Master Yang!"

Yang Zhengshan was stunned!

Daddy!

Is this Sha Pingchuan's daughter?

How is it possible?

It is common for officials to keep singing girls and dancing girls in their families. It is also normal for young ladies from big families to learn music, chess, calligraphy and painting, but who will let their young ladies dance for guests?

Ladies from big families should not go out of the house. They should abide by various rules when meeting men from other families. What's more, they should dance in this way!

Yang Zhengshan looked at the dancer standing in front of him with some surprise.

After a dance, the girl named Yu Lu shed a lot of sweat. Her white forehead and pink neck were a little wet.

At the same time, a light and elegant fragrance rushed towards Yang Zhengshan.

Smelling this fragrance and looking at the vague spring light from a close distance, Yang Zhengshan pulled his beard awkwardly.

Meow, a little brother has got up!

"Lord Yang, this is my adopted daughter Yu Lu!"

"Yu Lu, come and have a drink with Lord Yang!"

Sha Pingchuan introduced.

Adopted daughter!

Yang Zhengshan suddenly understood. I said, who would let his daughter do such a thing?

Yu Lu came forward and poured a glass of wine for Yang Zhengshan first, and then added another glass for herself.

The light gauze, the fragrance, the pink and tenderness made Yang Zhengshan a little dazzled.

Amitabha, Amitabha!

This red-faced skeleton is a bit too much. Old monk, no, I can't hold it anymore!

It's not Yang Zhengshan's fault that he has no concentration. It's really such a beautiful woman circling around him. Who can bear it!

"I, Yu Lu, toast to Lord Yang!"

The soft voice seemed to make the ears pregnant.

It's not the kind of coquettish, nor is it a deliberate clip sound, but a very natural gentleness.

Yes, it's gentle, just like the cry of a pet cat after waking up in his arms.

"Miss, please!"

Yang Zhengshan was clamoring in his heart, but on the surface he was still a gentleman, raising his head and drinking a full glass.

Yu Lu smiled, raised her hand to cover her red lips, and drank the wine in the glass.

"Yu Lu, you go down first!"

"My daughter is leaving!" Yu Lu bowed and left.

Yang Zhengshan endured the heat in his heart and was about to continue drinking with Sha Pingchuan, but Sha Pingchuan said: "What do you think of my daughter, Lord Yang?"

"Uh!" Yang Zhengshan didn't know how to describe it for a while, so he could only say in a high-sounding way: "Miss Yu Lu is kind and elegant."

"Haha~~" Sha Pingchuan gave him a look that all men understand, and said: "I heard that Lord Yang's wife died early?"

"Yeah!"

"Lord Yang can't do without a woman to serve him!" Sha Pingchuan said with a smile: "My daughter is quite good at taking care of people, which is very suitable for Lord Yang!"

"Forget it, I'll make the decision today and give my daughter to Lord Yang!"

Sha Pingchuan made a straightforward decision without waiting for Yang Zhengshan to speak.

Yang Zhengshan was a little confused, what does this mean?

Send a woman?

He didn't think Sha Pingchuan wanted him to marry Yu Lu as his wife.

If Sha Pingchuan really had such intentions, he wouldn't have let Yu Lu come to dance and humiliate himself.

Since she wasn't his wife, she must be his concubine.

This was undoubtedly sending a woman.

In an instant, Yang Zhengshan's hot heart calmed down.

This was not right.

Why did Sha Pingchuan send him a woman?

To please him?

That was impossible.

He was Sha Pingchuan's subordinate, and Sha Pingchuan didn't need to please him at all. He should be the one to please Sha Pingchuan.

For a moment, Yang Zhengshan couldn't figure out the purpose of Sha Pingchuan's doing this, and could only say: "Sir, this is inappropriate!"

"What's inappropriate? My daughter is also a miserable person. She lost her parents when she was young."

"Yulu has grown up and it's time for her to get married. I know that Lord Yang is a loyal person. I also believe that with the care of Lord Yang, Yulu will live a good life!"

"Don't think that Yulu is not my biological daughter, but I really raised her as my own daughter. You can't bully her in the future."

Sha Pingchuan said a lot of words, which made Yang Zhengshan feel sick.

Raised as a biological daughter?

If this is a biological daughter, you let her come and dance like this.

This is not raising a daughter, but raising a skinny horse!

"Let's put it this way. I'll ask someone to help Yulu prepare and take her away when you leave!"

Sha Pingchuan didn't give Yang Zhengshan a chance to refuse. He stood up and gave orders to the servants outside.

Yang Zhengshan didn't stop him because he knew he couldn't stop him.

It’s hard to refuse such kindness!

Sha Pingchuan's hospitality must have been prepared long ago, just waiting for him to come.

Half an hour later, Yang Zhengshan left Songzhou Guard, and at the same time, Yu Lu and two little maids left with them.

At this time, Yulu had put on a crimson jacket and a moon-white cloak. Although her exquisite figure was tightly wrapped, her soft temperament could not be concealed.

She was sitting in a carriage with two little maids, Yang Zhengshan was riding in front, and Yang Minghao was guarding him with his soldiers on the left and right.

"father!"

After leaving the city, Yang Minghao hurried forward and called softly to Yang Zhengshan's side.

"Let's talk about it when we get back!"

Yang Zhengshan said in a calm voice.

At this time, he felt something was wrong even more!

Something is wrong with Sha Pingchuan!

There is an unspeakable weirdness from beginning to end.

It's not impossible to give it to a woman, but it's definitely not the way to give it.

This is obviously a forced delivery.

I don't even give you a chance to refuse.

…

Back in Anyuan Prefecture City, Yang Zhengshan had a headache looking at Yulu getting off the carriage.

This woman is very tempting, but he really doesn't want her.

He really didn't dare to touch Sha Pingchuan until he figured out his purpose.

Who knows if there is a pit waiting for him to jump into.

"Master!" Wu Hai came out with a group of servants.

Yang Zhengshan thought for a while and said, "You arrange a courtyard for Miss Yulu to live in first, and then send two women and two girls to take care of her!"

We have brought everyone back, so we definitely can’t drive them away. We can only keep them at home to raise them first.

Wu Hai glanced at Yulu and quickly lowered his head, "Miss Yulu, please!"

Yulu looked at Yang Zhengshan and bowed, "I leave you!"

Yang Zhengshan nodded and watched her walk towards the west yard.

"Excuse me, keep an eye on this person."

Wu Hai's expression changed slightly, "Old slave, I understand!"

Yang Zhengshan then walked back to the main courtyard, but after changing into loose clothes, he came to the front yard again and found Wei Cen.

"Have you checked Sha Pingchuan?"

In the study, Yang Zhengshan asked in a deep voice.

"Sha Pingchuan!" Wei Cen's expression moved slightly, "Checked it!"

"Is there nothing wrong with him?"

"Yes, but we shouldn't handle those things!" Wei Cen said.

Yang Zhengshan was silent.

The Miwuwei are responsible for major and important cases. Although Sha Pingchuan has committed many crimes, they have not yet been enough for the Miwuwei to focus on.

"I always feel that something is wrong with Sha Pingchuan!" Yang Zhengshan still expressed his feelings.

"What's wrong?" Wei Cen asked.

Yang Zhengshan fell into deep thought.

There's a lot that's wrong.

But where to start?

He pondered for a long time, and suddenly a flash of inspiration flashed in his mind.

"You have checked Sha Pingchuan, so you should know how Sha Pingchuan obtained his money, right?"

Wei Cen nodded hesitantly, "Sha Pingchuan has been occupying farmland since he took office. Up to now, he has occupied about hundreds of farms. In addition, he has also bought many shops and farms, not only in Jiacheng, but also in Chongshan. Guan, Jing'an Mansion, Qizhou City, etc., the Sha family has many assets!"

Yang Zhengshan narrowed his eyes and asked, "Is the Sha family a wealthy family?"

"It's not considered a wealthy family. The ancestors of the Sha family only produced one guard commander, Tongzhi. The Sha family was not considered wealthy before Sha Pingchuan!"

"Then the question is, how did Sha Pingchuan accumulate so much property!" Yang Zhengshan asked.

Private occupation of farmland is not uncommon in Chongshan Town.

Many military attachés will privately occupy the farmland in the camp, but most military attachés will not go too far. After all, those farmlands are the basis for military households to support their families. If officials occupy too much, the military households will lose their way to survive.

Sha Pingchuan can occupy so many farms because he is the commander of Songzhou Guard, and he can intervene in all the forts under Songzhou Guard.

Hundreds of acres of land can indeed bring Sha Pingchuan a lot of income, but they can never support him to accumulate such a large family fortune.

Wei Cen frowned, thought for a moment, and said, "He has been operating in Songzhou Wei for more than ten years!"

"If I remember correctly, he was promoted to the commander of Songzhou Guards in the 19th year of Taiping!" Yang Zhengshan said.

It is now the twenty-fifth year of Taiping, which means that Sha Pingchuan has been the commander of the Songzhou Guard for six years.

Before becoming the commander of the Songzhou Guard, it was impossible for him to occupy so many farmlands.

In just six years, he not only occupied hundreds of farmland, but also bought a large number of shops and farms.

This is obviously unreasonable.

"You mean he is related to the smuggling case?" Wei Cen also thought of this.

Yang Zhengshan stroked his beard, "It's possible. Other than that, I can't think of where he could earn so much money."

At this time, he had already thought of what was wrong with Sha Pingchuan.

Luxury, extreme luxury.

It can be seen from Sha Pingchuan's food and drink expenses. To be honest, even Zhou Lan cannot afford his luxury.

Lamb, wine, and delicious food.

That meal would probably cost several hundred taels of silver.

Moreover, he has raised so many dancing girls. Even without the Yulu girl, raising so many dancing girls is still a big expense.

As far as Sha Pingchuan's life was concerned, not to mention that he was just a commander of the Wei Department, not even those wealthy princes could live in such luxury.

"Please check again, I think there may be something wrong here!"

Wei Cen nodded, "I will report this matter to the Admiral."
