It was still early, and the door to the private advisor's room was still closed.
After knocking for a while, someone came to open the door and asked faintly, "Who are you?"
It was a woman in her forties or fifties. She was probably the private advisor's wife.
"We're looking for the private advisor." Zhao Yun 'er explained.
"He's sleeping! You know how to disturb people by coming so early! "The woman yawned and looked sleepy.
Zhao Yun 'er's mouth twitched. This woman was really interesting. It was already seven or eight o' clock, but it was not early. People in ancient times went to bed early, so it was reasonable to say that they would get up early.
"We're looking for the private advisor for business!"
"Then come in first and wait. My husband will get up later, so he needs to sleep well."
Zhao Yun 'er and Zhao Wen Sheng had no choice but to wait. After half an hour, the private advisor woke up.
As soon as he saw Zhao Wen Sheng, he asked, "Why are you here today? Let me tell you, I've already helped you with your niece's matter. She's fine now. Don't look for me for anything else. "
"But private advisor, you didn't intervene in my niece's matter. It was the heir who helped." Zhao Wen Sheng said weakly. He didn't dare to be too strong in front of the heir.
"Then in the end, your niece is fine, isn't it? Without the heir, didn't I take action? "The private advisor replied very calmly. He seemed to be used to dealing with this kind of thing.
Zhao Yun 'er pulled her fifth uncle and asked him to come over.
"Private advisor, I'm his niece. My fifth uncle was confused and thought that I committed a crime. But in the end, I didn't do anything. The case was investigated by the authorities and I was cleared. So whether the heir was involved or not, you didn't have to do anything. Isn't it bad to swallow the twenty taels of silver now? "
"What do you mean by swallow the twenty taels of silver? Little girl, it's wrong of you to say that. You sent the silver over. Did I beg you to give it to me? Now you want to go back, how can you do that? If you were locked up, it would still be possible for you to go back. But now that you've been released, the twenty taels will definitely not be given to you! "
There was no reason for him to spit out what he had eaten.
"Does that mean you won't give it to me?" Zhao Yun 'er remained patient.
"Give what? Hurry up and leave, otherwise, don't blame me for being rude. "
"Grand Master, let's have a good talk. We are just ordinary people who don't know anything. But you can't treat us like this. After all, we still have to do business in the future. If you don't return the twenty taels of silver to us today, I will go to the government and make a fuss. That's why I'm abusing my authority and accepting bribes. Although they might not be able to punish you for your crimes, they would at least investigate you. They wouldn't leave you unpunished even though the people were indignant, right? As for whether your background is clean or not, you know it yourself. If the county magistrate doesn't care, then I will continue to appeal. I don't believe that the Great Zhou Country's laws are like waste paper, without any practical use at all. "
When Zhao Yun 'er said these words, the private advisor was also a bit shocked.
A little girl without any power. Facing a government official like him, she wasn't afraid at all. Her words were clear and logical as she argued for what was right.
Only ….. he definitely wasn't willing to hand over the twenty taels of silver.
