A few hours later, several big families of the Yue family in Wu'an City were called by Yue Yuchuan to Yue Xin's study. After hearing this, everyone was embarrassed, after all, no one was willing to take money and food out of their own pockets.

Yue Yuchuan hurriedly said: "Brothers and uncles in the clan, this is a green mountain, I am not afraid of no firewood!" If my father falls again, our Yue's family really has no weight in Hedong! Uncle Zeng is nearly sixty years old, and his health has not been good in recent years, in case there is a long and two short, the Yue family will have to rely on my father...... Under the nest, Ann has finished eggs? Those benefits you got before, Yu Ming and Fang Xuanling will still let you enjoy them with peace of mind? ”

Under these half-threatening words, all the businessmen and gentry of the Yue family looked at each other. One of them hesitated, "That's ...... Can you really get away with it? In case the money and food are replenished, but in the end it is not returned, are we not at a loss? ”

Yue Xin said coldly at this time: "Who dares to say that there is a certainty in doing things!" It can only be said that if you find a flaw at any time, you can make up for it at any time. However, my Yue's family always has some influence in Hedong, which affects the whole body. If Yuming wants to move us, he also has to consider the reaction of Brother Zeng Province. As long as it is delayed slowly, it will not be long before the imperial court will have to prepare for the Northern Expedition to the Turks. Maybe it'll be put on hold! After all, the destruction of the Turks is the most important thing for our saints at the moment! Now this difficulty, as long as we work together, we will be able to overcome it! ”

After hearing this, Yue Yuchuan glanced at everyone in the Yue family, and said fiercely: "Uncles and brothers, now everyone is in the same boat, if my uncle capsizes, we don't know how many people in the Yue family will drown!" What are you still thinking about that little profit? Under the nest, Ann has finished eggs? ”

Everyone in the Yue family looked at each other a few times, and although they looked reluctant, they had to reluctantly agree, and then went back and began to prepare hastily......

……

Fang Xuanling has experience in dealing with this matter, and he has long estimated Yue Xin's possible reaction, after making a big splash at the beginning, he repaired the plank road, secretly crossed Chen Cang, and picked some big-headed soldiers who were rough on the surface, and asked people in the city and in various important places, attracting the attention of Yue Xin's group.

And those shrewd and capable officials of the Criminal Department were sent by him to keep an eye on Yue Xin, Yue Yuchuan and others to see what was happening to these two people.

Yue Yuchuan convened a meeting of the Yue family, and then quietly transported grain from the Yue family's warehouse to the Wu'an County Treasury at night, all of which Fang Xuanling knew well.

Looking at the lively and busy scene around the Wu'an County Treasury, Fang Xuanling, who was hiding in the shadows, was secretly funny.

Fang Xuanzao, who was standing beside him, said: "Big brother, in the past two nights, several of Yue Xin's relatives have been transporting grain from their homes to the official treasury, it seems that it is really as Miss Li Xiuning said, this Yue Xin really did a lot of bad things in Wu'an County, which made people angry!" ”

Another officer of the Criminal Department also said angrily: "What's even more infuriating is that he was afraid that we would find out the facts, so he sent officials and county soldiers to greet us from house to house, and asked these victims who were poisoned by him not to confide the truth to us." It's just that he also thinks of others simply! In front of the people in our criminal department, how many people will not reveal the truth? And others really want to expose him again! ”

Fang Xuanling looked at the brightly lit treasury in front of him with a smile, but his heart was excited. If you can uproot Yue Xin's power at once, then you will prove your ability in front of Yu Ming, get his appreciation, and you will be able to climb the big tree of Yu Valve in the future. He had already seen that there were signs of rebellion, and it was possible to take over the world after the rebellion.

Now the five pro-soldiers have been divided into several according to the previous division, and they are ready. As soon as he gives the order, he can immediately initiate an arrest.

Another hour passed, and I saw that the grain trucks from the warehouses of the Yue family had arrived. Fang Xuanling smiled and said, "Notify it immediately, let our people divide the troops and implement the action according to the previous arrangement!" ”

After a while, there was a loud shout of killing in Wu'an City, and the five soldiers were like wolves and tigers, first sealing all the roads near the treasury, and then taking advantage of the panicked and incoherent drivers of the grain transporters, they all arrested them.

Seven or eight out of ten of these people were hired servants and servants of the Yue family. Even a few of them took the lead in Yue Xin's clan relatives. After Fang Xuanling asked about the origin and residence of these people, he immediately took someone to raid their homes.

Of course, such a big action must not be able to contain the fire in paper. When the treasury was blocked, after all, these soldiers were not familiar with the terrain, and some of the fish that slipped through the net escaped from some small ones that only Wu'an locals knew.

It's just that when they wanted to go to the Wu'an County Ya to report to Yue Xin's father and his father, they didn't expect that the Wu'an County Ya was also surrounded by the soldiers of the brigade, and as soon as they arrived at the door, they were arrested. Then he was interrogated overnight by the officials of the Criminal Department and tortured to confess.

Whether it was the people of the Yue family, or the porters, coolies, and domestic servants they hired, they were all arrested in a panic without preparation. They hadn't had time to collude or figure out how to deal with interrogation.

As a result, under Fang Xuanling's threats and temptations, as well as intimidation and bluffing, most of them were spineless people. Before dawn, he asked all the materials that Fang Xuanling wanted to ask, and even some people spit out the things that the Yue family had done in the past, as well as corruption and bribery, which gave Fang Xuanling an extra surprise.

Just these charges confessed by the people of the Yue family were enough to put Yue Xin's father and his father to death. He could even uproot his accomplices, mainly others from the Yue family. After the case was made public to the world, Yue Xin was not a street rat in Wu'an County, and everyone shouted and beat it!

Fang Xuanling acted resolutely, and after obtaining the evidence, he immediately sent these situations to Yu Ming's desk early in the morning.

At this time, he said with a straight face: "My lord, my subordinates heard a report last night, saying that a large number of grain trucks were being transported to the treasury of Wu'an Guancang. The subordinates wondered at that time, hadn't the relief food distributed by the imperial court already been transported for half a month? How is it possible that a large amount of grain will enter the official warehouse? If there is such a thing, the imperial court will also notify it in advance, and it is impossible to suddenly transport it like this. And now it's not the autumn harvest season, and it's impossible to put the collected grain and grass into storage! ”

After a pause, he continued: "So, my subordinates rushed to the treasury of the Wu'an Guancang, and happened to see several merchant gentry of the Yue family in the city, who were urgently transporting their own grain to the treasury of the Wu'an Mansion, and the appearance was suspicious. So, the subordinates arrested all of them immediately, and then interrogated them overnight, and now the truth has been revealed! ”

"Oh? What is the truth? After hearing this, Yuming was overjoyed, but his face still asked quietly.

Fang Xuanling sighed and said: "The treasury of Wu'an County has long been empty, the grain has not been stored, and the official warehouse is already empty enough to starve to death mice." The stock of grain that should have been accumulated in previous years, as well as the relief grain allocated by the imperial court, were all gone. The subordinates sent people to interrogate the chief treasurer. This person confided the truth, it turned out that the money and grain in the treasury had already been transported to Henan and Shandong by Wu'an Shouyue Xin and sold it secretly half a year ago. ”

Immediately, he continued: "Immediately afterwards, the subordinates interrogated these captured Yue family merchants, and at the same time sent people to search the belongings of these people's families, and found the account books and grain storage records they had transported out of the house, as well as the records of sharing with Yue Xin and Yue Yuchuan's father. The prisoners, witnesses, and exhibits were all stored in the camp guarding the pro-army to prevent anyone from looting. In the process of raiding, there were also a few conscientious domestic servants and maids who reported that Yue Xin did not save him when he saw death, and allowed the victims to starve to death and die of illness. But more people are afraid of Yue Xin's power and dare not speak ......"

"The evidence in front of him alone is enough to convict Yue Xin. It's just that he has other more serious crimes, and he doesn't have time to investigate them one by one. In order to prevent him from using his power to interfere with the investigation of the case and threaten the people. The subordinates suggested that Yue Xin and Yue Yuchuan's uncle and nephew should be imprisoned first, and then the imperial court should be asked to send another official to serve as the county guard here to temporarily take charge of the affairs of Wu'an County. At the same time, it was officially announced to the people of Wu'an: Yue Xin and other people involved in the case have been formally investigated, so that they can rest assured that they can report and reflect their crimes, and there is no need to worry about retaliation! In this way, the case can be investigated! Fang Xuanling said in one breath.

Yu Ming also frowned slightly when he heard this, although he had already heard from Li Xiuning that Yue Xin's problem was very serious, but he didn't expect it to be so serious. He then hurriedly examined the evidence carefully.

After reading these confessions, as well as the testimony of those witnesses, and the account books, deeds of sale and other relevant evidence extracted, they couldn't help but be furious. Although Yu Ming didn't want to make a big deal before, so as not to affect the relationship with Yue Zeng. But looking at these heinous crimes, he was also angry.

"Arrest this Yue Xin immediately! All offenders will be investigated to the end! You can't be soft on these bastards anymore! To be soft on them is to tolerate adultery, and I am sorry for the surname of Li Min in the world! Yu Ming said with an angry face: "Xuan Ling, you can rest assured to do it!" When the sky falls, I'll hold you up! ”

When Fang Xuanling heard this, he was overjoyed in his heart, knowing that he had won Yuming's trust.

So, he immediately bowed and bowed, and then left Yuming's room.

After Fang Xuanling walked out of the door, he looked radiant, and he said loudly to a cadre of the Criminal Department: "Go!" Let's go directly to the Yamen of Wu'an County! Arrest Yue Xin! ”
