The living room was already filled with wine. Although fruits were scarce at this time of the year, Zhangsun Wuji and Cheng Yaojin were surprised to see two slightly wilted fruits!
There were also a few side dishes.
Clearly, these were not hastily prepared. They must have been prepared beforehand. Otherwise, how could there be so many things in such a sudden manner?
Even when they went to Zhang Feng's small pub, there were sometimes not so many things.
It seemed that this little county magistrate was rich!
Niu Weili seemed to have seen through their thoughts and hurriedly said, "Please forgive me, High Dukes. These things were given to my wife by the people of Lantian when I left …"
"I'm not here today to ask you about this. Someone will come to you about this. You're called Niu Weili, right?"
Zhangsun Wuji did not stand on ceremony.
He drank a mouthful of wine and finally put down the wine cup in disdain. Instead, he picked up a fruit and played with it in his hand.
"Five days ago, the document for your transfer from Lantian to Chang 'an was signed by Old Man. Previously, you were in Lantian for a few years. Although you didn't do anything, you didn't cause any trouble either. That's why the Ministry of Justice gave you a chance. However, how many days have you been in Chang' an? The things you've done in these three days have made me very dissatisfied! "
Zhangsun Wuji spoke very slowly as if he was talking about daily life. However, these words sounded different to Niu Weili's ears.
Very dissatisfied?
Where was he dissatisfied?
He thought that he did nothing wrong.
He wanted to wait for Zhangsun Wuji to say something. However, after Zhangsun Wuji finished speaking, he did not say anything. Instead, he looked at him with a faint smile.
He could not help it.
Niu Weili began to think hard.
"Think about it carefully. If you can't think of anything tomorrow, you don't have to stay in Chang 'an anymore!"
As he spoke, Zhangsun Wuji and Cheng Yaojin looked at him playfully and then left.
After sending off the two gods of plague, Niu Weili collapsed on the ground in front of the yamen. At this moment, his mind was filled with Zhangsun Wuji's last words.
What on earth am I …
Did something go wrong?
He couldn't help but recall everything that had happened in the past four days.
"Grand Advisor, quickly bring me all the complaints from the past four days!"
Niu Weili hurriedly roared as he was carried out of the room by the servants.
"Coming, Lord Niu, I'm ready!"
At this moment, the teacher's mustache was trembling non-stop. A few of the documents in his hands fell to the ground.
Thus, Niu Weili decided not to leave. He sat on the ground and started flipping through the books.
"Disperse, disperse, go do whatever you need to do! What are you looking at? Get out! "
When the teacher saw this, he snatched the lantern from the servant girl's hand and urged the servant to leave. Only then did he lie on the ground with his butt sticking out and go through the cases of the past few days again and again with Niu Weili. He even went through the previous cases and didn't notice anything wrong.
However, the more it was like this, the more Niu Weili panicked.
He could not help but think of a person.
A spendthrift who looked to be in his twenties.
"Could it be that guy?"
Niu Weili could not help but exclaim.
The private advisor was so scared that he trembled. ,
"Lord Niu, who are you talking about?"
"Who else? The one who bought the land! "
The private advisor's eyelids twitched.
"You mean the guy who bought 50,000 mu of land? But that's impossible! What ability does that guy have to invite the two Grand Dukes? "
"Private Advisor Ma, you've been in Chang 'an for a long time. Quickly tell me the details of this guy. Also, I asked you to investigate the people who have contact with this guy. What did you find?"
"If you didn't mention it, I would have forgotten."
Advisor Ma slapped his forehead and said, "You think too much. This guy doesn't have any background. He just opened a small tavern in Tonghui Lane. I don't see him doing business all day long. He's just a freeloader. However, the people in Tonghui Lane seem to have a good relationship with him. I heard that the Four Great Devils in the city call him brother. Moreover, the Four Great Devils once gave him a tiger as a gift!"
"What?"
"A tiger?"
"The Four Great Devils?"
Niu Weili's head was completely dizzy.
Before coming to Chang 'an, he had spent a lot of money to listen to the officials and their sons in Chang' an City, especially the son of Zhangsun Wuji, the Minister of the Ministry of Justice, and the son of the fearless Cheng Yaojin. He even inquired about the sons of all the Grand Dukes in Chang 'an City.
This inquiry was incredible.
The Four Great Devils in Chang 'an City were the sons of the Four Grand Dukes!
At this time, when he suddenly heard this news, Niu Weili almost fainted.
"Why didn't you tell me earlier that the guy could call the Four Great Devils and the sons of the Four Grand Dukes brothers?
"You should have told me earlier!
"If you had told me earlier, would Lao Tzu do that?"
Niu Weili cried.
She sat on the ground as tears streamed down her face.
It was said that one could find one or two people in Chang 'an City that he couldn't afford to offend. He didn't believe it before, but now …
