Ah Chou opened the message that Mu Tianhong sent someone to hand her.

There has been some progress in the Fujian riot case.

Originally, the people of those prefectures made a riot, because the government army and they grabbed grain, and in the past few years, they have intensified their efforts and collected all the surplus grain in the hands of the people.

And several of the officials involved in this matter are members of the Four Kings Party.

Mu Tianzhuo was sent by the emperor to pacify the masses, but he did not move after arriving in Fujian. The crown prince Mu Tianhong took the opportunity to send people to spread rumors, saying that Mu Tianzhuo did not move because he instructed his subordinates to rob the people of the food, and his words were convincing, so that the people believed it.

Those people were extremely angry, and they gathered together and went directly to Mu Tianzhuo's residence. It stands to reason that the prince's whereabouts will never be revealed, but how did those people know?

Naturally, it was the handwriting of the prince and others, who quietly revealed some clues, which made those people follow the vine.

Mu Tianzhuo hurriedly fled north under the protection of the guards around him, and has now withdrawn from Fujian, wandering around Jiangnan Province.

Now Mu Tianzhuo's situation is very difficult. Not to mention the inch, it was attacked by the people, and the origin of this incident was also spread to the capital. By the emperor's side, Concubine Zhao was grounded indefinitely, and there was no one to help speak.

Mu Tianzhuo knew that if he wanted to turn the tables, he must first clear the suspicions of the people.

And Rong Qinglan couldn't bear it anymore for a long time, and ran to Jiangnan Road to find Mu Tianzhuo.

"You leave like this, the matter over there ...... the capital" Mu Tianzhuo brushed Rong Qinglan's hair with a little dust.

"The matter over there in the capital, the concubine body has been handed over to Xu Tai, so there must be no big problem, but it is on the prince's side, which is quite tricky. Xu Tai's meaning is also to ask the concubine to come and see. Rong Qinglan sighed. Her tender eyes were full of worry.

Although Mu Tianzhuo was in a bad mood, his demeanor and tone were still very calm: "There is no doubt that this matter is the prince's handiwork, don't think about it." ”

"The prince deceives people too much," Rong Qinglan said angrily, "He actually played this trick to kill people with a knife, I don't know who gave him a bad idea!" ”

"What's the wrong idea? Clearly a good idea! Mu Tianzhuo's smile was a little grim.

Rong Qinglan held his hand: "Lord Wang, now are we going to see the move, or are we going to encircle Wei to save Zhao?" ”

Mu Tianzhuo fell into deep thought: "Siege Wei to save Zhao, Lan'er, you are really the king's lucky star......"

Jianye Sumire Hall. Ah Chou threw away the letter from the boss of Huainan Song and looked at He Sijun in front of him: "Boss Song said so many soft and hard words, what do you think?" ”

He Sijun would not have gone through Jianye, but Boss Song was not good at making claims. Sumire Tang's secret acquisition of bezoars can't hold the fire after all. was noticed by Boss Song, so the situation is very embarrassing now.

But Ah Chou didn't feel embarrassed at all: Boss Song gnawed at the old. Relying on the accumulation of ancestors to live a leisurely life. Do you want to live a lifetime? How can there be such a good thing in the world, you can get it for nothing!

Besides, she didn't use any shady means, and Sumire's business has always been above board. She only uses those conspiracies and tricks in politics, what does Sumire do to do it?

"Boss, in my opinion. You don't have to pay attention to Boss Song, what to do and what to do," He Sijun replied calmly, "We did the right thing." There is no need to deal with Boss Song. Besides, with Boss Song, it is difficult to ensure that there are any traps, so we will continue to do our own thing, first, to let people know that we are above board, and secondly, there will be no mistakes. ”

Ugly bowed: "That's right, that's exactly the truth." We are above board, and we are not afraid of shadows. It's just hard to guarantee what others will do. Therefore, although we don't have to pay attention to Boss Song, we still have to be on guard secretly, lest Boss Song have any ghost ideas. ”

He Sijun nodded yes, and talked about the branch.

"The matter of the branch, let's press it first," Ah Chou was very cautious, "I mean, wait for Sumire Tang to divide the victory and defeat in Jianye and Yonghetang, and then consider the branch, otherwise it will only be a drag on both ends." In addition, I don't have a good candidate at the moment, maybe when the time comes to open a branch, I still need you to come forward. ”

"Of course I listen to the boss, but does the boss have a detailed plan?" He Sijun asked.

Ah Chou walked to the bookshelf next to him, took out a large map and spread it out: "I have a plan for a long time, but the timing is the most important, this is the strategic distribution map I drew earlier." ”

He Sijun couldn't help but be surprised when she saw it-she was really not simple, she had already thought about it very thoroughly!

"Now the most important thing is to get the matter of the bezoar, the situation in Jianye is complicated, and we still have to take our time, unless Yonghetang can't bear it and strikes first. But as long as Yonghetang strikes first, I will definitely suppress him. Ah Chou's tone was relaxed, and he seemed to be confident.

But the storm came sooner than anyone thought.

On the eighth day of June, the weather was sunny, but in the afternoon, it began to be cloudy.

A thunderclap cut through the sky, and the officials of Ying Tianfu neatly surrounded Sumire Hall.

"Get out of the way," the head catcher held the unsheathed trapping knife to separate the crowd, "Sumire and the others will all stay, and they are not allowed to move!" ”

Tian Qiumei quickly ran into the backyard: "Girl, girl, it's not good, the people from the yamen have surrounded the Jintang!" ”

Ah Chou immediately stood up from behind the desk, but he didn't panic: "Did you tell me why?" ”

Tian Qiumei shook her head: "No, girl, do you see if you run away or ......"

"How can you escape, even if you escape, even if you are fine, you will become a fear of crime and absconding! You hurry up to Yuwang's Mansion from the back door and report to Lord Lixue, and I have my own opinions about the rest. Ugly said and pushed Tian Qiumei out.

Tian Qiumei understood that the matter was urgent, so she hurriedly went. And Ah Chou put all the important account books and plans into the secret grid, and then walked out of the office.

The officials had already arrived in the backyard.

"You're the boss of Sumire?" Headcatcher asked.

Ah Ugly smiled in his tone: "What does this adult do?" ”

"Come with me to the yamen, the rest of the people will be detained here first, and they will be searched inside and out!" The headcatcher turned around and left.

Immediately, a catcher stepped forward to catch the ugly.

"Don't come here! I'll go myself! "Ugly dodged those people and followed the headcatcher.

Xia Yixue received the news and hurriedly sent someone to inform her cousin, and went to find Princess Longyu again.

Princess Long Yu hesitated for a moment: "I have to find Yu Zexuan for this matter, he is familiar with the court, and he also has a relationship with the people of Ying Tianfu. ”

"I'm afraid this matter is not simple, it is so dignified, how can Sumire Hall be fenced off? If someone from above instructed him, what should Ying Tianfu want, and can he still control himself? Xia Yixue voiced her worries.

"Then we can only find Yu Zexuan, at least let him find out who instructed him, so that we can prescribe the right medicine!" Princess Long Yu's expression was serious.

"Okay, I'll go to him, if it's convenient for the princess, it's best to go to Yingtianfu to see Ah Chou. Ying Tianfu's group of people worship high and low, I am afraid that they will treat Ah Ugly badly. Xia Yixue said it tactfully.

But Princess Long Yu has always been a straightforward character: "It's too polite for you to say that, I must go to see it, go now, otherwise that group of people will punish her, and it will be a waste to rescue her." She walked out as she spoke, not even planning to change her clothes, and went directly to Ying Tianfu.

In Yingtianfu, Ah Chou was directly put into a prison cell. The iron fence clanged, the door locked, and the trappers left.

Along the way, Ugly knocked on the side and asked Sumire what had happened, but no one told her.

The look on her face was a little dazed, which made her understand that maybe they didn't know what was going on. But that head catcher is really not easy to mess with.

She took out the silver ticket on her body and stuffed it into the head catcher, but the head catcher took the silver ticket as a matter of course, and continued to say nothing.

Ah Chou was glad that it was only ten taels of silver, and she didn't dare to give it to Zhang Da, otherwise those fast catchers wouldn't want to get rich, and dismembered her to see how much silver she had on her body?

So she still had more than a hundred taels of silver tickets hidden on her, as well as some broken silver. One hundred taels of them were close to her, and she was scared of the previous times, worried that she would encounter something strange again, be swept in, and be kidnapped again. When the time came, I didn't meet any acquaintances, and I didn't even have money to eat.

The beggar's life was not easy at all, she experienced it for the first time and did not want to come again.

But now he is thrown into a cell, and he does not know what he has sinned, and he is no better than a beggar.

Ah Chou sat down dejectedly: I don't know if Xia Yixue got the news, how will they save her...... Yes, how to save it, she believed that they would save her, and she would not have chosen to help the prince deal with the fourth prince at the beginning.

They are two different groups of people.

"Yo, what happened to such a young girl?" A middle-aged woman with a somewhat strange expression looked Ah Ugly up and down.

Ugly turned his head and saw clearly in the dim light, and with her, there were five people in the cell.

One is the weird middle-aged woman; One was an old woman, but her face was hideous, and she didn't say a word; There was also a young woman cowering in the corner, her face and body seemed to be full of wounds; The other woman sat upright with a serious expression.

Ah Chou didn't want to deal with her, so he turned his head and continued to look at the world outside the iron fence: "I don't know either." ”

The strange woman let out a "giggle" laugh: "How can you not know, I don't know who you have offended, right?" ”

Ah Ugly raised his eyebrows slightly under the veil: Don't look at this woman so weird, what she said makes some sense. Sumire Tang didn't do anything bad, she was brought in for no reason, and the catchers refused to reveal a word, didn't she offend anyone, what happened?

But the only person she offended seemed to be Rong Qinglan......

Could it be that this is Rong Qinglan's handiwork? But even if the emperor arrests someone, there must be evidence to convict him! They hide it from me, unless they want me to know as late as possible, so that there is no time to prepare......

What a scheming! (To be continued......)
