The Imperial Concubine Just Wants To Be a Salted Fish Every Day

In front of you is the gate of the Fang family.

The Fang family is worthy of being a rich family, the gate alone is very magnificent, the copper lock on the vermilion gate is shining in the sun, and the two big stone lions at the gate are even more majestic and majestic!

A concierge had just finished sweeping the steps and was about to leave with a broom when Wen Jiucheng called out to stop him.

"Excuse me, does this place belong to the Fang family?"

The concierge stopped, looked at them, and asked, "Who are you?"

Wen Jiucheng said kindly: "We are friends of Fang Wujiu. We learned that his uncle's family lives here, so we want to visit."

After he finished speaking, he took out a greeting card and handed it over with both hands.

Unexpectedly, when the concierge heard the words Fang Wujiu, his expression changed all of a sudden.

He didn't even look at the greeting card, and threw down a sentence: "We don't have anyone named Fang Wujiu here, you have admitted the wrong person."

After speaking, he walked quickly into Fang's house and slammed the door shut.

Shang Kui had some grudges against the other party's family, but now seeing the concierge being so rude, he became more and more annoyed.

He was about to go to knock on the door, but was stopped by Wen Jiucheng.

"Forget it, don't waste your energy, this family has made it clear that they have ghosts in their hearts, and they won't talk to us."

Wen Jiucheng came here on purpose, mainly to test the attitude of Fang's family. Now it seems that what the innkeeper said is almost the same. The relationship between Fang's family and Fang Wujiu is indeed very bad.

Shang Kui frowned and said, "Then what should we do? Is that the way to go?"

Wen Jiucheng didn't answer but asked instead: "Have you brought your token?"

Shang Kui took out a metal token, which represented the status of Yu Linwei's commander.

"Sir, is that what you mean?"

Wen Jiucheng nodded: "That's it, let's go, let's go to the Sheriff's Mansion."

The two rode to the Sheriff's Mansion.

After seeing the token of the commander of the Yulin Guard, the Chief of the Sheriff's Mansion hurried out to greet him.

Chang Shike politely invited the two into the mansion, and within a short while, they successfully met Jian Shujie, the sheriff of Lu'an County.

Jian Shujie is a middle-aged man in his forties. He is tall and thin, with a small beard under his chin. His eyes are relatively small. When he smiles, his eyes will narrow into slits.

There is a shrewdness that is almost philistine in him, he doesn't feel like an official, but more like a businessman.

The county guard is a third-rank official, while the commander of Yu Linwei is a fourth-rank military officer. From the perspective of official rank, Jian Shujie's status is higher than Shang Kui's.

But Shang Kui is a close minister of the emperor, so he cannot be offended easily.

Seeing that Shang Kui was about to greet him, Jian Shujie quickly helped him up with a very warm attitude.

"There are no outsiders here, General Shang must not be too polite, please sit down."

After Shang Kui and Wen Jiucheng were seated, Jian Shujie hurriedly greeted people to serve tea, especially telling them to get the best tea.

Jian Shujie looked at Wen Jiucheng, with a look of inquiry: "Who is this?"

Shang Kui said in a leisurely manner according to what Wen Jiucheng had told him in advance.

"This is Mr. Wen, my friend. We came here to find someone, but we are not familiar with this place. We encountered a little trouble in the process. We really have no choice but to ask Sheriff Jane for help."

Jian Shujie immediately said: "Who are you looking for? I'll send someone to help you find it. As long as that person is in Lu'an County, I will definitely help you find him!"

"The person we are looking for is Fang Wujiu, he came to Fufeng City to visit his relatives in half a month.

His relatives live on Yangliu Street.

But we went to the Fang family on Yangliu Street just now, but the family refused to admit that they knew Fang Wujiu, and even turned us away.

I implore Sheriff Jane to help make peace and let us meet that family. "

Jian Shujie immediately responded: "It's just a trivial matter. I just happen to be free now. I will personally accompany you to Yangliu Street."

Shang Kui was overjoyed, stood up and saluted: "Thank you, Lord Sheriff!"

The group came to Fang's house on Yangliu Street again.

The soldiers of the Sheriff's Mansion stepped forward and called for the door, and the door was smashed and banged.

The porter ran over to open the door, and said angrily: "Be gentle, be gentle, you can afford to pay if the door breaks..."

Before he finished speaking, he stopped abruptly.

He opened his eyes and looked at the officers and soldiers outside the door. Among them, the county sheriff who was wearing an official uniform was particularly majestic.

The concierge was so frightened that his legs became weak and he almost fell to the ground.

He hurriedly opened all the doors, knelt down on the ground and bowed to the sheriff.

Almost all the people in the city have seen the sheriff, but they usually only have a look at him from a distance, and rarely have the opportunity to get in touch with the sheriff so closely, the concierge is really frightened.

Soon the rest of the Fang family also rushed over upon hearing the news.

Now the head of the Fang family is Fang Huai. He is almost forty this year. If you look closely at his facial features, you can vaguely see traces similar to Fang Wujiu. He can barely be considered a middle-aged handsome guy, but he He is not as tall as Fang Wujiu, and his figure is still a bit fat. He looks a little greasy, and his temperament is quite different from Fang Wujiu's.

He took his wife and children to kneel down to salute the Sheriff.

By observing Fang Huai's appearance, Wen Jiucheng has been able to confirm that he is indeed related to Fang Wujiu.

Presumably they found the wrong person this time.

Jian Shujie didn't even look at those people kneeling in the middle of the room, and said to Shang Kui with a smile.

"General Shang, take a quick look, is there anyone here you are looking for?"

Shang Kui shook his head: "That person is not here."

Then he looked at Fang Huai's family kneeling on the ground, and asked them if they had ever seen Fang Wujiu?

As soon as Fang Huai heard the name Fang Wujiu, his chubby face trembled, as if he had been greatly frightened, but he quickly forced himself to calm down.

"Returning to the official, the grass people don't know Fang Wujiu."

Shang Kui sneered: "It's already at this time, you are still stubborn, do you want me to check the household registration?"

Although Fang Wujiu has been removed from the family tree by Fang Huai, there are still relevant records in the government household registration. If you really want to check, you can definitely find out the relationship between Fang Wujiu and Fang Huai.

Fang Huai panicked immediately, breaking out in cold sweat.

He didn't dare to hide any more, and said with a trembling voice.

"Please forgive me, Caomin does know Fang Wujiu. He is Caomin's nephew, but he left the Fang family twenty years ago, and Caomin has never seen him since."

Jian Shujie frowned and asked, "Since he is your nephew, why did you say you didn't know him just now? What's the secret here?"

Fang Huai hesitated to speak.

His appearance fell into Jian Shujie's eyes, and it was obvious that he had a ghost in his heart.

Jian Shujie became more and more dissatisfied, and said sharply: "I order you to tell the truth quickly, otherwise I will have you put in prison and tortured immediately!"

Fang Huai was so frightened that his whole body was shaking.

He kept kowtowing to beg for mercy, like an old dog begging for mercy, no longer the style of the head of the family in the past.
