Chapter 38 The salted fish that eats melons 10
Although the second wife is greedy for the Wang family’s money, he does not completely use his daughter, and he still likes her a little. This can be seen from the fact that they gave his daughter a dowry of 10,000 taels. There are some families who take full advantage of their daughters. They will only give away the items sent by the man, and then they will completely accept the bride price in the betrothal gift. Unlike them, they also took 10,000 taels for the dowry. .
They still love their daughter a little bit. Seeing that something happened to the Wang family, they are naturally anxious and thinking about how to get their daughter out.
But the Ye family is not a very energetic person to begin with, let alone the second wife of the Ye family. Now the Wang family’s matter has reached the level of a three-level trial. How can an ordinary royal merchant family of the Ye family do this? It can be done, so when the second room of the Ye family approached the eldest family and wanted help from the eldest family member who had inherited the imperial merchant position and had some energy, Ye's father and mother naturally refused.
Ye's father said: "It's not that we won't help you, but that the Ministry of Punishment, Dali Temple, and the Yamen of the capital, and the three departments will interrogate. How can I, a small imperial merchant, intervene? How can I have the energy to help you? Liangren, look at the family of so many women, which family has the ability to fish their daughter out of the Wang family? The Third Division ordered the guards to run away. If I ask for information, it's not bad." br>
The second house was naturally unhappy when he saw that the first house was unwilling to help, but what the first house said was true. Now the third division sent people to surround the Wang family like iron barrels, and no one could escape, so they could only give it up angrily.
The reason why they were so tightly surrounded was because the officers and soldiers all knew that the Wang family was rich and powerful. When they came, their superiors said that they could not let anyone from the Wang family go, because if one of them escapes, they might be killed. They would take the banknotes hidden by the Wang family and take away the Wang family's property. At that time, one person would be missing, resulting in a lot of money being missing. They would only ask and let them fill in the money themselves.
How can they have the money to fill such a hole, so naturally they will keep it honestly. Besides, the boss said that if the task is completed well, there will definitely be many rewards. After all, the Wang family has money, and they have robbed the Wang family, and there are many give money They handed out rewards. As soon as they said this, all the officers and soldiers surrounding them could not show their dedication. After all, if you let someone go, you would be punished. If you successfully completed the task and were rewarded, everyone naturally tried their best, resulting in no one from the Wang family running away. of falling.
Yes, the Wang family saw that the situation was not good, and they did want to run away secretly with the banknotes. After all, as long as they ran away, they would have so much money, and they would still live a good life in the future.
As a result, the officers and soldiers took a very strict look at the Wang family. They checked the population of the Wang family as soon as they arrived. From top to bottom, the number was extremely clear. Obviously, the court had already done a thorough investigation and knew how many people there were in the Wang family.
Then it will be checked every morning and evening. If there is any shortage, it will be traced so that no one can escape.
Only Wang Xi was extremely anxious when he heard the news.
It turns out that the Wang family is not without a way to escape. As a modern man, Wang Xi knows that he must leave a way out for himself, so the Wang family has a way out.
Early after he became rich, when he was building this manor, he asked workers to dig a tunnel. The entrance of the tunnel was very secret, and only he knew about it. In order to keep the tunnel safe, he would dig it from time to time. In and out, so the tunnel is currently functioning normally.
Not only is it in normal use, but it also has supplies hidden underground. If you are afraid that the court will attack you, you can hide underground if the wind outside is tight. When the wind outside calms down, it will not be too late to escape.
It's a pity that he had all the escape routes open, but he didn't expect that he would suddenly fall, causing others to not know about this tunnel, and no one in the Wang family could escape.
Because he couldn't express it, he could only act anxiously.
Actually, even if he tells this secret, it will most likely be leaked out and then be useless, because once more than one person knows about this kind of thing, it will be easily leaked, because no matter who he is with The son said that the other party might tell his wife and children, and as long as a third party knows about it, it will be easily spread to countless people. Therefore, Wang Xi's escape route may only be used by himself. Once others know about it, everyone will know about it. I'm afraid that the court will eventually find out, and even he won't be able to use it.
The second room saw that the eldest room could not help. He remembered that the eldest room had vaguely reminded them before to ask their daughter to leave the Wang family, and immediately asked suspiciously: "The eldest brother reminded them before, did you accept it?" What news has arrived?”
Naturally, Ye's father couldn't say that it was because of Linlang's dream. He only said at the moment: "I received the news at that time. I heard that the Wang family reported each other, so I knew something bad was going to happen. You also know what the Wang family did. If you continue to report each other, the court Sooner or later, they will be dealt with, so I feel that something is wrong with the Wang family, so I thought Let the niece come back. "
What Ye Ye said was not false. At that time, he saw that Wang Xi had a stroke, so he collected information about the Wang family. Finally, he heard that the Wang family was fighting within the family, and it reached the point of reporting each other. , I knew that what my daughter said, that the Wang family would ransack their homes in the future, was probably true.
Looking back from the ending, Father Ye made such a judgment, and it would not be too abrupt if he reminded the second room.
Sure enough, after he said this, the second room no longer suspected anything. The main reason was that the Ye family had limited energy, and the second room did not believe that the first room could receive news from the high-ranking officials of the court before the incident happened.
I can only regret that I didn’t listen to Father Ye at that time. If I had known that the Wang family would be in trouble, I should have let my daughter reconcile with that Mr. Wang No. 100. When my daughter comes back, even if she marries not as well as she did back then. Prince No. 100 would be more unlucky than following the Wang family now.
But he said that because Wang's family was large and he had committed many crimes, the trial took a long time. It had already been a month since all the trials were completed.
The case was finally concluded, and the verdict submitted to the emperor by the three divisions was that most of them had committed crimes, and those who had the judge could sentence them as they should, while the rest had their homes confiscated and exiled.
——In fact, this was set by the emperor’s close ministers. When the emperor saw such a verdict, he naturally agreed.
The emperor only asked Wang Xi to confiscate his family and send him into exile, instead of beheading the entire family. This was because the emperor was kind. Otherwise, the Wang family would not be able to kill enough for what they had done. How could they only deal with a few of the criminals? It's all over.
The main crime committed by the Wang family was to rob women of the people - after the fall of the Wang family, those were concubines or wives who were really forced into the palace by the Wang family, as well as some who were not in a good position. The concubines or wives who pretended to be robbed and wanted to get away with it were accused by the Wang family of taking advantage of the family's power to rob civilian girls when the third minister asked them whether they had been forced into the palace. If they didn't give them, they would target them. .
If they don't give it, they will be targeted by the Wang family. It's not that they framed the Wang family, because there is a case, because there are also people outside who have complained about this matter.
In the past, some people who did not want to give their daughters to Wang Xi or his sons as concubines were targeted by the Wang family for doing business. Now they all came forward to accuse them.
