When Li Bantou came to the Yellow Mansion with three officials, the gate was open and no one was watching. Li Bantou led people directly into the house, and the house was filled with a tense atmosphere, and from time to time you could see the figures of the family with large bags and small bags dodging.

The trees are scattered, Li Bantou has been to the Huang Mansion, the luxury and wealth of the Huang family is enviable, the sun is still shining on the glazed tiles, but it is full of panic and uncertain colors. Coming directly to Qingyu Hall, I met a lot of people along the way, but no one came to ask about it.

Huang Xinqing sat on the chair, looked at Li Bantou who walked in with blazing eyes, and sneered: "Li Tou, but you want to arrest the old man?" ”

"Master Huang said with a smile, Lu County Order has something to ask you to go to the county office." Li Bantou smiled humbly. Although the Huang family may have been robbed, the emaciated camel was bigger than the horse, and Li Bantou deeply despised the short-sighted family members of the Huang Mansion.

Huang Xinqing's mood was a little more relaxed and he stood up. After sitting for a long time, the blood in his legs was blocked, Huang Xinqing's legs were weak, he couldn't stand, and he leaned back.

A hand reached out behind him and held him firmly. Huang Xinqing looked back and saw that it was the third son Huang Canguang.

"Why are you still here?"

"My mother and children are gone, I am your son, I can't leave you alone at home." Huang Canguang lowered his head and said in a sneering manner.

Looking at this silent concubine seriously, Huang Xinqing suddenly found that his third son turned out to be a piece of jade. Holding the arm of the third son tightly, Huang Xinqing looked up to the sky and laughed, extremely happy.

"Well, well, my father has always promised to be able to discern people, but he didn't even see his own son clearly, and there should be such a catastrophe."

Helping Huang Canguang to go out, Huang Xinqing educated his son, "Guang'er, you can't just read books when you are a person, and you need to refine things in the world." For example, Li Tou came to invite his father early in the morning, and I am afraid that he has not even eaten breakfast, which is very hard. ”

As he spoke, a silver ticket magically appeared in Huang Xinqing's hand, quietly handed it to Li Bantou on the other side, and continued: "It is convenient for others and for oneself, sometimes you have to be willing to give it, and you have to give it up." ”

Li Bantou quickly took the silver ticket, his sleeves hung down, and when his hand appeared again, the silver ticket was gone, and this hand was perfect. The smile on his face became more and more modest, and Li Bantou smiled: "Master Huang, don't worry, it's not too late for you to go after breakfast, and I will be cheeky to ask you for something to eat." By the way, Lord Ren doesn't live in the mansion, and Lord Lu also invited him to the lobby. ”

Hearing the song and knowing the meaning of elegance, Huang Xinqing understood that Li Bantou had something to say, and immediately smiled: "My godson-in-law lives in the East Cross Courtyard, come and bring a few officials to find my virtuous son-in-law." ”

After a long time, an old man appeared in front of the house, Huang Xinqing sighed: "It's Uncle Gen, I've been really old and confused all these years, I lost the watermelon and picked sesame seeds." Don't say anything, Uncle Gen, let someone send some food, and by the way, take these officials to the East Cross Courtyard to find Lord Ren. ”

Li Bantou signaled, and the three officials beside him followed Uncle Gen away. Helping Huang Xinqing to sit down again, Li Bantou said in a low voice: "Lord Liu sounded the drum of injustice this morning, saying that he found the secret deed of your mansion's encroachment on the field, and it was packed in a mahogany box. ”

In a few words, I understood that the wooden box was snatched by the Yamen of the Qing War, Huang Xinqing secretly hated Jiang Jian for being useless, if he wasn't in a hurry to take away the secret deed, how could his things fall into the hands of Liu Yushan. It's too late to say anything, and it's how to respond that counts.

There is a fine house in the East Cross Courtyard, which is where Huang Xinqing entertains friends, and Ren Guoqiang and Ling'er live here. Thinking of moving back to the post house, he couldn't see the charming Ling'er for a while, so Ren Guoqiang worked hard and tossed until the fourth watch before he fell asleep.

The fierce knock on the door woke Ling'er up, pushed away the big hand pressed on his chest, Ling'er sat up from the quilt, pulled her loose hair together, tied it into a bun, and the red quilt reflected the snow muscles, which was extremely enchanting.

The sound of knocking on the door outside the door was urgent, "Master Ren, Lord Ren, someone from the yamen is here." ”

Ling'er pushed Ren Guoqiang to wake up, Ren Guoqiang got up full of anger, and shouted: "Don't let people sleep, what kind of mourning howl early in the morning." ”

"Master Ren, someone from the yamen is here, saying that you are invited to the lobby immediately."

Yamen, lobby, Ren Guoqiang was startled, sobered up, jumped out of bed bare-legged, and urged Ling'er: "Hurry up and wait for me to dress, there is something in the yamen, and you can't delay." ”

Half an hour later, Li Bantou appeared in the lobby of Xingguo County with Huang Xinqing, father and son and Ren Guoqiang. Ren Guoqiang and Huang Xinqing's father and son are both famous, so they don't need to kneel and bow their hands.

Ren Guoqiang, dressed in a Confucian shirt and full of righteousness, came to Jiang Anyi happily, and said with a smile: "Brother Anyixian, Lord Yu has asked you to come to rejuvenate the country, and the three of us brothers will work together to make some articles to repay the high expectations of the adults and the expectations of the court." ”

"Hehe", Jiang Anyi had nothing to say.

Without waiting for Lu County's order to speak, Huang Xinqing said confidently: "My lord, the county announced an inventory of the fields, Huang is a big family with land, and he is a scholarly eunuch, of course, he must lead by example." Huang asked his family to check the fields at home, only to find that the housekeeper had signed a secret contract with someone behind my back to make a profit. The old man had already disposed of the steward, collected the secret deed signed, and was about to hand it over to the adults today, but last night, a thief came to the house, broke into my bedroom, robbed countless treasures, and snatched away the mahogany box containing the secret deed. My lord, Huang came to report the case. ”

Lu Xianling secretly picked a thumbs up, high, really high. Jiang Anyi was so shocked that he opened his mouth, is this okay?

"Huang Yuanwai, the official asked you, the thief entered the house last night, but someone saw it, can you see the appearance of the thief? It will be described in detail. ”

"Your Excellency, the thieves have snatched the box, and many servants in my family have seen it, and your lordship can summon them to testify. Last night, a watch......"

Huang Xinqing vividly described the situation of being robbed at home, and Lu Xianling asked questions from time to time, concentrating on solving the case, and deliberately put Liu Yushan and Jiang Anyi aside.

Ren Guoqiang's eyes rolled, and he asked Jiang Anyi to say a few words from time to time, check his face, and want to explore the direction of the wind. Liu Yushan heard that the box was snatched by thieves from Huang's house, and he also turned his suspicious eyes to Jiang Anyi.

The investigation of the Tianmu case is developing smoothly in the direction of the robbery case, Huang Xinqing's face is becoming more and more proud, Lu Zhixian's mood is becoming more and more relaxed, and a big robbery is about to turn invisible.

Jiang Anyi took a step forward, interrupted Lu Xianling and Huang Xinqing's performance, and said, "Lord Lu, let's ask about the five hundred and forty-three hectares in this box first." Jiang Anyi summed up the secret deed in the box and got this data.

Five hundred and forty-three acres, although Huang Xinqing said that he was blinded by the steward, such a large amount is obviously unreasonable, and even the result of the accumulation of the Huang family for several generations, Huang Xinqing does not know that it is impossible as the head of the family.

Lu Xianling was a little embarrassed, and asked Huang Xinqing: "Huang Yuanwai, what's the matter with your secret contract of more than 500 hectares?" ”

"My lord, Huang has already said that he was deceived, and he had planned to return the secret deed, and the taxes that should be paid will be made up, and the penalty will be accepted." Huang Xinqing knew that he couldn't be fooled, so he simply admitted it.

Lu County Ling was very happy, he was able to clear more than 500 hectares of land, plus some other fields, Xingguo County cleared more than 600 hectares of land, and his own merits could not run, and he smiled with satisfaction: "Master Ziyun 'can be changed after a while, and it is very good', I will let people calculate the taxes you owe, and notify you to pay taxes at that time." ”

Ren Guoqiang grabbed the merit and said: "In order to let my father-in-law hand over the secret contract, I didn't persuade him in my later life, and even lived in my father-in-law's house and persuaded each other day and night." ”

The whole house was put down by Ren Guoqiang's words.

Lu Xianling twitched his cheeks, and said with a smile: "As the deputy envoy, Lu Mou will definitely report to Lord Yu." ”

"Wait, the secret deed is actually in the hands of the adult, I want to ask, who gave it to the adult, has the thief ever been caught, where are the stolen items in my house? Please make it clear. Huang Xinqing lost a lot of money, and he didn't want to give up easily, so he clenched on to the theft.

Lu Xianling also wanted to give Jiang Anyi and Liu Yushan a dismissal, saving the two of them from making trouble in the county, making themselves feel like pins and needles. Thinking of this, Lu Xianling asked, "Deputy Envoy Liu, where did this box come from?" ”

Liu Yushan had to look at Jiang Anyi. Jiang Anyi didn't intend to let it go easily, especially Ren Guoqiang, not prosecuting this shameless person would simply insult Jiang Bang's reputation. Arrangements have been made to get up early, and Jiang Anyi showed Xiang Jingjian.

Xiang Jingjian strode to the middle of the lobby, holding the dragon guard card and signaling around. Seeing the Longwei card in Xiang Jingjian's hand, Huang Xinqing's face was like ashes, and it seemed self-defeating to catch the thief by himself, so thinking about it, Jiang Jian must have found out that the person who came was Longwei, so he was so frightened that he said goodbye without saying goodbye, hateful and annoying.

Lu Xianling's face was like earth, and he couldn't sit still anymore after the public case, and stood up tremblingly. Long Wei's duty is to patrol and arrest lawbreakers, supervise the actions of hundreds of officials, and officials below the fourth grade can be arrested first. Huang Xinqing can't alarm Long Wei to make a move, it's very likely to be the Li family, damn Jiang Jian, Long Wei won't be following him, pity me for being an unlucky pond fish.

Ren Guoqiang was shocked and jealous, surprised that Long Wei was present and that it was difficult to be good, and jealous that Lord Yu was so good to the students, and sent Long Wei to escort him, and people were more popular than death.

Xiang Jingjian was full of energy and said: "Investigate Huang Qingqing's intention to hide the land and fight against the Qing Yamen; Lu Guangzu was corrupt and perverted the law; It is unforgivable for Ren Guoqiang to live up to the grace of God, collude with lawbreakers, accept bribes, and break the law knowing the law. ”

Of course, Jiang Anyi's judgment about Ren Guoqiang was determined, and Ren Guoqiang immediately rolled his eyes and fainted to the ground. Lu Guangzu also stood unsteadily, kneeling on the ground, and Huang Xinqing barely stood with the help of his third son.

Xiang Jingjian continued: "These three people will be temporarily detained, waiting for the official documents of the state government to be disposed of, and the county affairs of Xingguo County will be temporarily replaced by Su Yunhuan, the county minister. ”

The three letters were sent to the Qing War Envoy's Yamen, the Prefecture Yamen, and the Longwei Prefecture Governor's Mansion.

At the West City Gate of Xingguo County, a carriage drove out in a hurry, Jiang Jian's face was pale in the carriage, and the injury was only temporarily suppressed, and after returning to Li Zhuang, he asked the master to take action to completely dispel the heat in his chest.

The news of Long Wei's shot should be told to the head of the family immediately, and there is a question hovering in Jiang Jian's mind, who is the person who made the shot in the room, and when he flew into the room, he glanced at it in a panic, that person seemed to be Jiang Anyi, could it be that the person who visited Li Zhuang that night would be this young champion?
