Chapter 1631 Mr. Xie’s Little Thoughts
Mr. Xie nodded with a serious expression, "This matter is of great importance. If it were in the past, I would have informed Mr. Peng of the matter. After all, it is under his jurisdiction. He will fine Mr. Qian and restrain him well. But I asked Jiang Baotou to go to Donggu County, but he always avoided seeing me. I have reason to suspect that he is covering up Qian Fangli, and I am afraid that such rumors are under his instruction."
Shu Yu pursed her lips and suppressed a smile. It seemed that Mr. Xie was not a completely temperless person. He clearly wanted to file a complaint against Mr. Peng and avenge Mr. Jiang and the others for being rejected yesterday.
But that's fine, Mr. Xie has been in Jiangyuan County for so long, and the magistrates of several nearby counties seem to not take him seriously due to their seniority.
People say that a new official has three things to do when he takes office. Mr. Xie's first step is a bit late, but as long as it is useful, it will be fine.
Mr. Xie looked as serious as possible, "So I plan to go to Fucheng and report the matter to the prefect for trial. Because this matter is more or less related to you, and Mr. Qian is a briber." Zhang Qing's people, two things can be combined into one, so I specially came to ask Mr. Lu Xiang to come over."
Shu Yu agreed cautiously, "This is what we should do. The sunflower oil in the palace was supplied by our Luji. If Mr. Qian spreads such a rumor, it will also implicate our Luji."
"This matter should be taken up sooner rather than later, shall we set off now?"
"good."
Mr. Xie will not delay anymore and let people set off.
This time, not only Shu Yu followed, but also the Liang family and his wife who were the victims, and Zhang Qing were also taken to Fucheng.
They were quite fast, but it was still late when they arrived at Fucheng.
Lord Xie went to see the prefect first. Lord Fei was very busy recently, but after hearing what Lord Xie said, he immediately sent people to Donggu County to investigate.
The people who went there were very quick, and it didn't take long for them to bring the exact news.
Just like Mr. Xie said, such news did come out in Donggu County, and Master Qian did secretly grow sunflowers and renovated the workshop.
With definite evidence, Mr. Fei opened a court hearing on the case the next day.
Mr. Qian had completely calmed down. Look, several days have passed. The police from Jiangyuan County have not come to arrest him. It is said that he was sent away by Mr. Peng two days ago. I guess he knows Nothing came of it.
Mr. Qian felt that it was necessary to give Mr. Peng some more gifts so that he could sit back and relax.
The matter of stealing the sunflowers has been exposed, and it will not be so easy for him to steal it next time.
What a pity, what a pity.
Why did the sunflowers on his several acres of land die?
Mr. Qian was lying on the recliner, drinking tea and thinking about where to get sunflower seeds next.
Just when he was sighing and unable to do anything, the housekeeper ran in with a pale face.
"Master, I'm sorry, the official is here."
Mr. Qian's hand holding the teapot shook and the clothes in front of him were instantly wet.
He stood up suddenly, frowned and said, "It's coming, why are you panicking? I..."
Before he finished speaking, he saw two officials striding behind him and asked him solemnly, "Are you Qian Fangli?"
"It's me." Qian Fangli frowned and asked, "Are you the official servants of Mr. Peng? Why have I never seen you before? Are you from Jiangyuan County? You are quite courageous."
