Wenzhou, as an important place in Hedong Province, has always implemented a curfew system. However, the curfew system is becoming more and more relaxed, and only a document issued by the state government or the observation embassy is sufficient.

Although in the past year or two, due to the increase in the number of displaced people, the curfew has also been tightened accordingly. But after nightfall, you can still see a lot of people in the streets and alleys.

Most of these people are the masters and servants of the big families who go out to do errands. In this regard, the guards who patrol the night have long been accustomed to it.

But at this moment, the night guards looked nervous, their steps were not as steady as before, and even their breathing was subconsciously a lot lighter.

Obviously, tonight is a special situation. Or rather, something will happen.

In fact, the guards didn't know what was going to happen. As the gates were closed, they received an order from the Assassin's Mansion and the Observation Embassy's Mansion, a strange order.

No matter what sound you hear, you can't get close to the area around Jishan Street.

This order, stamped with the seal of the assassin Yuan Zan and the observation envoy Xie Li, means that it must be carried out forcefully, and there can be no half-point difference.

Although these guards did not know why they had such an order, no one dared to approach the area of Jishan Street, so they could only wait for the hour to pass with a nervous and vigilant heart.

Jishan Street is a long, narrow street with a herringbone structure and about 60 households. Although these families are not high-ranking families, they are not comparable to ordinary small families because they have good people living in them.

It is not easy to search such a house one by one. Maybe when the first house was searched, it would have already alarmed other people's homes.

The point is, it doesn't necessarily come of it yet.

Yes, Zheng Chao, who was standing at the entrance of Jishan Street with Wenzhou guards at this moment, looked quite embarrassed. At this juncture when he wants to make political achievements, he is not willing to make such a big move.

Since he was appointed as a driver in Wenzhou, he knows too well the fierceness hidden under the people of Wenzhou, especially in the maintenance of Jishan Street.

After hesitating for a moment, he looked at Ye Yong, who had a smile on his left cheek, and asked uncertainly, "Lord Ye, are those bandits indeed hiding in Jishan Street?"

He couldn't be uncautious. The people of Wenzhou are very protective of Jishan Street, and if they make such a big move, it will be troublesome if they are angry.

Zheng Chao's hesitation was not just because of the movement, he always felt that the search of Jishan Street had another inside story, and he didn't like to be kept in the dark.

However, when his chief official Yuan Zan ordered him to cooperate with Ye Yong, he only said that there were bandits hiding in Jishan Street, and Lord Ye was ordered by the king to investigate and actively cooperate; even when he secretly went to consult Xie Li, Xie Li Shi also held the same statement.

The Jingzhao official who suddenly appeared in Wenzhou, and it was a member of the Songjiang Ye family, said that there were bandits hiding in Jishan Street, and the chief officials of the two prefectures also gave an order, even if he felt that it was inappropriate, he also appeared here with guards.

Ye Yong took his eyes off the silent street, nodded and replied, "That's what the inline newspaper said, everything will bother Lord Zheng." ”

At this time, the moonlight shone on the earth, reflecting Ye Yong's face. He smiled slightly, with the bearing of a family son, and with a trace of evil aura unique to officials of the Criminal Department, making it impossible to question his words.

Hearing him say this, Zheng Chao looked at the dozens of guards behind him, and then said, "Then, according to the plan, we searched house to house." ”

"I'm tired of Lord Zheng. By the way, the back house should also be searched carefully, but the ladies must not be disturbed. Ye Yong said this, still with a light smile on his face.

This sentence sounds a bit contradictory at first glance, even if it is a search of the back house, how can it not disturb the female relatives in the middle of the night? But Ye Yong has already thought of countermeasures, and specially found some capable ladies, so that a lot of trouble can be avoided.

This search will inevitably cause a big commotion, but Ye Yong believes that the news he received must be hiding in Jishan Street!

In normal times, he would search every house on Jishan Street clearly, and he would not alarm anyone. However, he doesn't have that much time, and Ji Yong will leave Jishan Street at any time.

Ji Yong is related to the Meng family, and the emperor said that no matter what, he must find the people of the Meng family - whether they are alive or dead.

Under such circumstances, Ye Yong did not dare to delay, so he used the power of the Observation Embassy.

Xie Li had a brother who was a servant of his door, and he knew about him coming by the king's order, but to his surprise, Yuan Zan lent him the guards without saying a word, and gave an order in time.

"Yuan Zhan......" Ye Yong thought silently, and began to think about the reason why Yuan Zhan was so compliant.

Yuan Zan can take office in Wenzhou, there must be someone behind him. But the Yuan family is a poor family, and there are few generations of in-laws, and they have never heard of Yuan Zan as a capable disciple. Who is the person behind this...... Ye Yong hasn't decided who it is.

But in Wenzhou, those who can hold office safely and securely and have political achievements have more or less something to do with the Pei family.

Yuan Zan gave the order so readily, was it for the sake of the Pei family?

But Ye Yong didn't have time to think deeply, at this time, the guards had already begun to enter those homes according to the previous division of labor, and they caused a commotion one after another.

When these noises sounded, Ye Yong, with a few subordinates, walked into the door of one of them with rapid movements.

This family, the owner is also surnamed Han, a master, teaching more than a dozen students, all of whom are the children of businessmen in the city.

From the household registration information provided by the Wenzhou Government, Ye Yong quickly noticed this family by virtue of his sensitivity in the Criminal Department.

Master, respect the text, there will be a premise for taking in Ji Yong. Besides, there are mostly children who come and go here, and there are no female dependents, which is more conducive to hiding.

For various reasons, Ye Yong decided to search this family in person. - His sense is rarely wrong, and he has helped him solve many cases in the past, and he hopes to find something here as well.

But unfortunately, he didn't find Ji Yong here, that Han Fuzi, just a panicked and frightened ordinary person, huddled in the corner and shivering.

When the name "Ji Yong" was mentioned, Han Fuzi's face did not change, indicating that he didn't know who Ji Yong was, let alone took Ji Yong in.

Ye Yong has been in the Criminal Department for so long, and whether a person is telling the truth or not can still be judged.

This result made Ye Yong quite unhappy, and the smile on his face disappeared. Could his judgment be wrong?

In addition to him, the few subordinates he brought who were skilled in exploration did not find any clues.

Ye Yong frowned and said, "Send two people to stay here and accompany Master Han well......"

Even if he doesn't notice it for a while, he won't ignore his feelings. This Han family, he can't easily bypass it, and slowly review it.

Suddenly, a rapid and sharp shout reached the ears of Ye Yong and the others, and even in the midst of the noise, this scream was particularly obvious.

This cry is someone shouting for help!

"Ah...... Help!" "Ah...... Help!"

Ye Yong's face changed slightly, and with a few subordinates, he quickly jumped towards the shout.
