Chapter 671 Huo Yuan’s threat (1)

Huo Yuan came to Yingtian Mansion and met Master Fu Yin Zhao Hongwang.

Mr. Zhao was very polite when he saw Huo Yuan, and kept assuring Huo Yuan that Mu Zhongqing had not suffered any injustice here. He was only temporarily detained in a separate prison. When the case was cleared, the government would A good person will not be wronged!

Zhao Hongwang is not a fool. When dealing with this case, he can't afford to offend both sides. Although Huo Yuan is just a businessman, behind him there is a sister who is a concubine and an identity that is difficult to distinguish between the truth and the truth. Naturally, he I dare not offend easily; as for Anguo Gongfu, although it has gradually become a sign of decline, the centipede is still alive. Not to mention the intricate in-law relationship network that Anguo Gongfu has established in the court over the years, there is only one powerful person. Even if the powerful General Protector of the country borrowed his courage, he would never be able to afford it!

Therefore, when Huo Yuan asked about the progress of the case, he could only explain it by saying that it was under investigation, and hinted that Huo Yuan should find a private settlement with An Guo Gongfu, because the evidence from the current investigation was very unfavorable to Mu Zhongqing.

According to Mr. Zhao, when the Mu family purchased the Blessed Dessert Shop, they did use banknotes with the seal of Anguo Gongfu. Therefore, it would be better to have a good communication and reconciliation with Anguo Gongfu.

Although Huo Yuan didn't understand why the Mu family had banknotes from An Guo Gongfu, he never believed that the Mu family would steal. If they were greedy for money and had no bottom line, they would have taken away his house worth 100,000 yuan. Two people have participated in the bank. Since such a valuable bank account has been rejected, how can they take the risk and steal a mere ten thousand taels of silver notes? Moreover, the purchases of Zhuangzi and Cloth Village were all made in cash, so much silver. , must have been locked in the warehouse and held by many servants. The Mu family were either weak scholars or women and children. How could they steal it?

With many doubts, as soon as he left Yingtian Mansion, Huo Yuan ordered the driver to drive to Duke An Guo's Mansion, wanting to find out what was going on in Duke An Guo's Mansion!

Riding a carriage, full of doubts, when we arrived at the west corner gate of Anguo Gong's Mansion, we suddenly saw a thin coffin pulled on an oxcart and entered through the west corner gate of Anguo Gong's Mansion.

It seems that one of the aunts in the house died. If she were an ordinary domestic slave, she would not allow the coffin into the house. She would only bring it to the righteous village. The house would pay for it, buy a thin coffin, smelt it, and bury it nearby. If the master dies, he will go through the front door, not the side door, and will not use such a simple coffin. From this, it can be inferred that the thin coffin must be used to hold some aunt!

When Huo Yuan arrived at An Guogong's mansion, An Guogong naturally had to come out to accompany him in person, and the children of the third bedroom of the mansion also came out, because Du Ruhai didn't know that the old lady Wang and her three sons were planning the Mu family, so , the Du Yongzhi brothers had to come out to deal with it, lest their father didn't know what was going on and was fooled by Huo Yuan.

Du Ruhai was indeed shocked when Huo Yuan mentioned this matter. However, his usual approach to covering up scandals in his house was to cover them up whenever he could. Therefore, after hearing about this matter, he was shocked. After that, the first thought was to ensure the reputation of Duke Anguo's government. It must not be seen that Duke Anguo's government deliberately framed the Mu family for a mere tens of thousands of taels of silver.

Of course, protecting one's shortcomings is one thing, and on the other hand, the Mu family's property does make him a little tempted. After all, the Anguo government has long been unable to make ends meet, and tens of thousands of taels of silver is really a big temptation in his eyes. Therefore, he immediately and decisively sided with his wife and son.

"Master Huo, the matter has come to an end. As long as Mu Zhongqing can take the initiative to compensate us for those two shops and the village, we will no longer pursue this matter. Speaking of which, he is also my son-in-law. For the sake of my daughter and grandson , I can’t kill them all at once!”
