Most of the local ethnic minorities in Wuxi followed Hu Man to join the army as a pioneer, Liu Yan had an agreement with her, and all the ethnic minorities under her rule must join the army when they reach the age of age, and no one should be missing, and the women left behind can only marry Han people, and their own nationality is not allowed to intermarry.

In this way, the ethnic minorities of Wuxi were under control. It's just that the Shanyue obtained from Jiangdong is the notorious Jiangdong Shanyue, and they first moved to Changsha, and then transported from Changsha to all parts of Jingzhou. It was precisely because Xu Shu knew this paragraph very well that he ordered the executioner to lead the soldiers to solve this matter. The ones who should be killed are the instigators behind the scenes and those stubborn Jiangdong Shanyue, for these people, there is no need to be polite at all, kill them!

Although the local people of Wuxi were frightened at the beginning, they found out after a long time that the army sent down from above was not the devil, they only killed Shanyue, who caused the incident, not only did not disturb the ordinary people, but also took the initiative to help the people repair houses, carry water and chop firewood, etc., not too close to the people. In this way, the distance between friend and foe is immediately clear. The unrest was quickly quelled.

However, the real instigators behind this turmoil disappeared without revealing any traces. After investigation, the so-called masterminds who were caught behind the scenes were all natives of Jingzhou, with relatively simple backgrounds, and there were no "external forces" that Xu Shu was looking for. However, Xu Shu did not give up his suspicions because of this. On the contrary, his doubts were even greater. Making such a big deal and being able to pick yourself so clean is not something that ordinary meticulous work can do. This mastermind behind the scenes must have a lot of background, maybe there are his accomplices in Jingzhou, and they are not among the heroes who have been dug up.

When Liu Yan was in Changsha, although he purged the powerful and scholars in the city several times, but after the family became big, this kind of purge became less. It can be said that in addition to Changsha, the power of the family in several other places is still very strong.

Is it possible that this invisible black hand is a member of the family, but no one else in this family is involved in this incident except this person? In short, since it is firmly believed that there is a mastermind behind the scenes, it means that the technical means are not enough to find out now. To paraphrase a modern joke: it's not that **** is incompetent, but that **** is too cunning.

Because of this "spy" who was not caught. made Xu Shu have a heavy heart in his heart, and he was a little more vigilant because of this, and began to focus his suspicious eyes on the several major families on the surface.

The big families in Changsha City are now only the Kou family, and the big families in Wuling City have all been investigated this time. Lingling's great family is the Liu family where Liu Ba is located, and that is also trustworthy. Now it seems that the enemy may be hiding in Xiangyang, right under his nose! The so-called most dangerous place is also the safest, and ordinary people would not have imagined that Xiangyang, which is the seat of Jingzhou and has the highest safety factor, actually hides a time bomb.

Xu Shu thought so in his heart, but he didn't reveal anything to anyone. Even Jiang Wan and Liu Ba, who can be completely trusted, did not reveal half a sentence, at a recent regular meeting, he even asked Jiang Wan to announce that the turmoil in Wuxi had been resolved, and the aftermath work was also being carried out in an orderly manner, and the focus of future work had to be on the war ahead, and it was necessary to continue to do a good job in logistics and provide a steady stream of help to the soldiers in front.

The meeting ended, and the officials dispersed. As soon as Xu Shu got home, he went into the study, secretly summoned a few henchmen, and asked them to start secretly monitoring several big families in Xiangyang City, even if it was the Huang family, the Pang family would not let go. The heads of these families have seen anyone lately, held any parties, and have any suspicious guests. In short, it is to squat 24 hours a day, and not to let go of any unusual details.

The mastermind behind the scenes never expected that he would reveal his whereabouts so quickly, let alone that Xu Shu would find Xiangyang so quickly, and have the courage to suspect these families who have always supported Liu Yan.

There are only a few families in Xiangyang City, and they can be counted on their fingers. The Kuai family represented by Xiangyang Taishou Kuaiyue, the first family in Xiangyang during the Liu Biao period, is now the Cai family at the end of the ranking. The Pang family where the military general Pang Tong is located, the Yue family of Kou Feng, and the Huang family of Huang Yueying's maiden family. The rest of the small families are basically branches or vassals of these behemoths.

Xu Shu first analyzed that it was possible that someone in the Cai family or the Kuai family was using their brains, so they focused on guarding these two families. Before leaving, Liu Yan also reminded him to pay attention to staring at the family, but Xu Shu was disdainful of her words, thinking that she was a small-bellied chicken intestine and abandoned her husband for personal gain. However, after the Wuxi incident, he began to realize that in some things, women's intuition is indeed much more reliable than men's subjective consciousness, and these people that Liu Yan hates may really have problems.

As a result, it didn't matter if he stared at it, he was really stared at something strange. And these strange spearheads are all pointed at the Sima family, who has always supported Liu Yan and even had the grace of Liu Yan, which made Xu Shu shocked and a little blushing. It was such a surprise to him. He would rather have a cat to be the Cai family or the Kuai family, so he can sigh at most, and say that Yan'er is really prescient, these two families are really unreliable! But as a result, it was the Sima family that was found to have a problem, which made Xu Shu feel that his face was also on fire. If this problem really comes from Sima Mansion, it is tantamount to a thunderclap on the ground, and Jingzhou is afraid that it will be in turmoil again!

Now is the time when it is necessary to maintain stability, Liu Yan is fighting in front of her, and she is pulling her whole body. Xu Shu looked at the information in his hand and hesitated, but still put it on the candle flame and lit it, and after watching the information turn into a puff of green smoke, he got up and ordered to change clothes. took off the official clothes on his body, put on the most ordinary clothes, and ordered him to write a prayer post and prepare a sedan chair, and he wanted to go to Sima Mansion to pay homage!

Xu Shu gave an order, and the subordinates quickly prepared everything, but the housekeeper was still a little puzzled, when did the master go to Sima Mansion and write a prayer post? The housekeeper was puzzled, Xu Shu would not explain anything to him, the next person took the post, and went to Sima Mansion to deliver it first, Xu Shu closed his eyes at home and waited for a while, estimating that the time was almost up, and then he went out to get in the car and went in the direction of Sima Mansion, thinking all the way, how to face Sima Hui, how to talk to him about this problem, if all the speculation was finally confirmed, what should he do?

Hoping that everything was a misjudgment by himself, Xu Shu thought silently in his heart, and unconsciously sighed: "Hey...... You don't want to lose your time!" )
