Chapter 706 Loyalty and Patriotism?

When Bai Zhen expressed doubts, she looked towards Master Liu. Master Liu's heart skipped a beat, and he coughed dryly: "What does Miss Bai want to suspect?"

Master Lu felt bad in his heart, is this going to hurt Mr. Liu? She wanted to speak, but Bai Zhen spoke first: "Of course I suspect that you officials and merchants have colluded to usurp the interests of the imperial court to benefit the Shen family."

Master Liu's face also turned pale, and he even stood up excitedly: "Miss Bai, don't talk nonsense."

Bai Zhen sneered: "Nonsense? Then tell me, why can a Shen family trim so many schools? In this way, are all the talents that Fucheng sends to the court come from the Shen family? In the future, they will be loyal to the Shen family. Or are you loyal to Da Zhou?”

Master Liu frowned: "Impossible, the Shen family is loyal and patriotic."

Bai Zhen waved her hand to interrupt Lord Liu: "Loyal to the emperor and patriotic? If you are loyal to the emperor and patriotism, why do you dare to do it so blatantly when you know that you are suspected of attracting talents? No one came to check before, so you turn a blind eye." Forget it."

"Now that my girl is investigating this matter, your master is going to report the news. What is the meaning of this? You simply don't take this girl seriously. I am an envoy of the court now, so you dare to do this. Master Liu still dares to say that he is loyal to the emperor and patriotic."

Master Liu didn't know what to say at this time, he just looked at Lu Qingfeng: "Master Lu, tell me, what's going on? What are you going to Shen's house for?"

Lu Qingfeng felt that he couldn't hurt the adults, so he said: "I just went to see my second sister."

Bai Zhen felt it was funny: "Until now, Master Lu is still treating this girl as a fool. This girl can control beasts, so I know who you meet and what you say."

Lu Qingfeng couldn't believe it: "Impossible, you..."

Bai Zhen laughed: "Are you questioning my level of beast control? Or are you saying that I have wronged you? That's right, I have no skills, so I am still arguing with you. It seems that I am in charge of this matter." No."

When Xia Xue heard this, she spoke directly, and looked at Bai Zhen: "Girl, let's hand over the situation here to the county master, who is very good at it."

Hearing that the county lord is very good at it, Lu Qingfeng was a little frightened. Everyone in Dazhou knows that the county lord is very good at killing. Maybe her way of handling it is to directly kill all the nine clans of the Shen family and take over those schools.

Master Liu obviously also thought of this possibility, not to mention, according to the county head's temper, it seems that this is really possible. Coincidentally, at this time, Xia Yu also said, "That's right, let the county magistrate kill all the people, and those talented people who have been recruited dare to rebel?"

Killing all three characters made Master Liu and Lu Qingfeng angry, no, it can't be like this. In any case, the Shen family is still very important to Fucheng.

"Miss Bai, I feel that this matter should be investigated carefully. The school over Xinyue Pavilion, we accept it, and it is good to do official school directly. The Shen family can be regarded as a good thing for Da Zhou, but It can’t be chilling.”

Of course, Bai Zhen didn't have this plan, she just wanted to scare her. Looking at Mrs. Liu: "It's okay to say so, so let's lock up this whistleblower first. After this girl has settled this matter, she will be released."

"As for whether I can still be a master at that time, I don't know for certain, and Mrs. Liu, the prince and concubine are all still there! Don't be too partial to some people."

Mr. Liu's face was a bit dark. From his point of view, since he took over Fucheng, he was only thinking of the local people and treated these families equally. But now Bai Zhen keeps saying that his official colluded with the businessman, so angry in her heart.

But at his age, he can't argue with a little girl. I can only nod: "Okay, I will lock people up first."

That night, everyone in the Lu family found out that Master Lu had not returned. I sent someone to inquire and found out that Master Lu was locked up for leaking court secrets.

When Master Lu had an accident, the members of the Shen family naturally couldn't ignore it, and Lu Zhixia was even more worried about getting sick: "Husband, will you be fine? Why are you so cruel about that Bai Zhen?"

Shen Hang quickly stretched out his hand to cover Lu Zhixia's mouth, then looked around, and chased around the whole room to make sure that there was no animal in the whole room before speaking.

"Ma'am, don't say these things anymore. That Bai Zhen can guard against beasts, who knows if there are any animals around us that are shooting at us. Don't worry, brother is imprisoned because of our Shen family, and our Shen family will not ignore it." of."

The top 100 aristocratic families are all backed by officials. So when something happened to the Shen family, someone would pass the news to the official side of the Shen family, and then wait for the news to come.

Lu Zhixia believed in Shen Hang: "Don't worry about comforting me, you go and discuss it with dad, what should we do about this matter?"

After Shen Hang appeased his wife, he went to Patriarch Shen. Patriarch Shen took his sons and daughters, who could speak, into a secret room.

After checking again, there were no small animals and then began to speak: "You all talk about this matter, what should we do?"

Shen Yuhuan couldn't help frowning seeing that everyone was silent, "How will Second Uncle respond to us?"

The second uncle of the Shen family is the highest-ranking member of the Shen family, and has been conferred the title of Marquis. There must be the latest news from the imperial court. It's just that it will take at least a few days for this news to come.

Patriarch Shen shook his head: "I don't know yet, at least we have to wait for a few days. And you all know that the county master Yongxi behind Bai Zhen is someone who can walk sideways in the capital, and your second uncle probably can't beat him."

Shen Hang frowned: "If that's the case, will the Lord Yongxi give the second uncle a face, we hand over all the schools and hand them over to the imperial court for management."

In fact, although most of these schools are free, there are still many people who pay a high price to get in. Generally speaking, the income is greater than the expenditure. That's why Xinyue Pavilion has been building schools and subsidizing students.

Shen Yunqi also frowned and said, "Shall we incite these students to intercede for our Shen family?"

Shen Yuhuan glanced at her elder brother like an idiot: "Brother, do you know what Bai Zhen accused us of? Winning talents for the Shen family's use, they are poaching the corner of the court. Isn't it just right for you to incite students now? Have you given her a chance to confirm this conjecture!"

When Patriarch Shen heard this, he seemed to be doing the same thing, and quickly waved his hands: "No, you can't do this. Well, these days, the Shen family can do whatever they want, and wait for news from your second uncle. As long as the court doesn't come, take it directly. People hold back first."

It seems that this is the only way now, anyway, it is impossible for the Shen family to betray Da Zhou. Besides, even the pirate island is gone, and the whole world is the imperial land, where can the Shen family defect?

Everyone looks at me and I look at you, it seems that this is the only way to do it now? Only Shen Hang frowned: "Then what about Lu Qingfeng?"

Patriarch Shen frowned: "Actually, there is no need to worry about Lu Qingfeng, he is the master of the magistrate himself, how dare those people neglect him."

There seems to be some truth in what he said. The Shen family had decided everything in this way, so they dispersed, and Shen Hang went back to comfort his wife.

Shen Yuhuan began to prepare the banquet in Xinyue Pavilion as needed, and she sent out invitation letters to the princess and others. If the banquet is not held now, will the princess think it is teasing her.

The banquet was still held in the usual restaurant. When Xiao Ruoshui saw Beibei, he asked specifically: "Princess, have you read the time on the invitation letter? It's three days later, is the princess going to attend? "

Beibei blinked his eyes and looked at Xiao Ruoshui: "Do you think we have a lot of free time? Besides, there is trouble with Shen Yuhuan, and I don't want to get involved. So I don't want to go, you guys think about it." If you want to go, go by yourself."

Xiao Ruoshui actually wanted to go, but after hearing what the princess said, she felt it made sense: "But if we don't go, will she think we are afraid of them?"

If it's just that Xiao Ruoshui and Shen Yuhuan have always been in conflict, their relationship is not very good. That's why Xiao Ruoshui wanted to go.

When Beibei heard this, she was a little amused: "Are you afraid of them? If I don't go, she will be uneasy. Well, we are very busy and have no time to discuss others."

Uneasy? Did the princess do something else? Xiao Ruoshui glanced at the princess, who had a calm face, forget it, you'll know when the time comes.

In the blink of an eye, three days later, almost all the members of Xinyue Pavilion were present except for Lin Mengxi. Looking at Shen Yuhuan: "Master, what are we using as the theme this time?"

Shen Yuhuan looked at the person who spoke, a little helpless, she was very anxious today, how could she care about these things: "You can figure it out yourself."

After finishing speaking, Shen Yuhuan kept guarding the door, and someone who didn't understand looked at Shen Yuhuan with doubts on his face: "Sister Yuhuan, what's wrong? Are you waiting for someone?"

Most of these people are girls from various families, and they are all headed by Shen Yuhuan. Thinking of the invitations Shen Yuhuan sent out before, I am afraid they are waiting for the county master and the others.

It's just that Shen Yuhuan was doomed to be disappointed. She waited in the restaurant for a whole day, not to mention the princess, even Xiao Ruoshui and Wan Xinxin didn't wait. Obviously, they didn't take this matter to heart.

This made Shen Yuhuan feel aggrieved, but she can't do anything now, because of Shen Yuhuan's condition, these people didn't enjoy themselves today, and there was an annoying person who appeared at the door of the restaurant.

"Sister, I want to go to this restaurant for dinner. Look at the girl standing at the door to meet customers, she looks so pretty, let's eat here."
