Husband and wife were originally birds of the same forest, and they flew separately when the disaster came. If a husband and wife are like this, how much more are they of the same race?

Don't look at the Cui clan is usually very grouped with the outside world, that is not a real crisis, now that Mount Tai is at the top, the other Cui clan people are not willing to die for Cui Yunhe.

There was a lot of discussion among the people, and most of them demanded to obey Hou Junji's orders and hand over the weapons in their private possessions, so as to avoid making excuses for Hou Junji to kill.

An elder said: "The head of the family, the imperial court is just going to investigate the matter of Cui Yunhe occupying the land, the county government has closed the case, those dead cannot prove that it was Cui Yunhe who killed them, and Tang Hui, who died in Chang'an, cannot prove that it is related to Cui Yunhe."

If Hou Junji wants to investigate, let him investigate, here are all our people, I don't believe he can find out any evidence. They can't find evidence, what can they do with Cui Yunhe?

But if they don't let them check, it will seem that we are weak and short of breath, and there is no problem and there is a problem. Li Shimin originally wanted to attack our Cui clan, if we didn't hand over our weapons, they just let them seize the handle, and Hou Junji framed us for rebellion, so it would be indefinite. If you don't do it, you will be wiped out.

Therefore, I suggest that the weapons be handed over according to Hou Junji's request, indicating that the Cui clan cooperates with the imperial court's investigation. ”

"yes, yes, let's hand over the weapon." Most people agreed with the elder.

Cui Jun, the elder of the third room, was anxious, he blushed and said, "What do you mean?" Do you want me to hand over my son? ”

An elder said, "This matter was originally caused by your family's Yunhe, why should you put the lives of the entire Cui clan on the line?" ”

"Yes, yes. Whoever is responsible for the blame will bear it. Everyone said in a gossiping voice.

Cui Jun said angrily: "Why don't you say that when we divide the money, we have worked so hard to earn in Sanfang?" "He is the elder in charge of the Cui family's business, and he brings a lot of wealth to the Cui family every year.

"Buzzing", the people in the third room and the people in the other rooms quarreled.

"That's enough, shut up." The head of the family, Cui Yan, roared.

And they all stopped talking, waiting for him to make up their minds.

At this time, Qinghe County Ling Gao Yi came, he went to Beizhou City yesterday and just rushed back.

Cui Yan asked, "Gao Yi, what is Hou Junji going to do?" ”

Gao Yi said: "It's for Tang Hui to die in Chang'an." Father-in-law, I saw Chen Guogong just now, he came this time, and he brought 20,000 troops, you quickly ask each room to hand over the weapons, I have already arranged the county office, let them hand over the weapons. This matter must be done quickly, and don't give Hou Junji an excuse to kill. ”

Although Qinghe County is a large county, with a population of more than 30,000 people, it wants to rely on these men, women, and children to resist Hou Junji's army, that is, the mantis arm blocks the car.

Cui Yan no longer hesitated, and said: "Listen to all the rooms, before three o'clock in the afternoon, send all the weapons in your hands to the west gate of the county seat." ”

Before dinner that day, Cui's handed over his weapons, Hou Junji saw the list of weapons, and couldn't help but be a little surprised, these weapons have more than 3,700 pieces, and the quality is not bad, these weapons do not include the weapons equipped by the Qinghe County government, they are all Qinghe Cui's.

Qinghe Cui's power is not only in the city, but also in the countryside and various manors, that is the main strength of the Cui clan. Hou Junji's men and horses seem to be a lot, and they can only concentrate on dealing with the forces of the Qinghe Cui clan in this part of Qinghe County.

Wang Huairen sighed and said: "Chen Guogong, no wonder the prince asked you to come with a large army, without so many troops, it is really difficult to control the situation here." ”

The next morning, Wei Zheng also arrived.

Soon after, Hou Junji left 10,000 people behind and continued to surround the county seat, and the remaining 10,000 people entered the county seat, and soldiers lived in every household.

Wang Huairen personally investigated the case of Wang Debao's homestead.

Looking at the burned house of Wang Debao's family, Wang Huairen visited the surrounding neighbors.

The closest to Wang Debao's house is a carpenter, after Wang Huairen explained his intentions, the carpenter said: "The fire in Wang Debao's house has nothing to do with Cui's family, Wang Debao's family has already moved away, they took the initiative to sell the land to Cui's family, and Cui's gave his family money, and the price is very fair."

Wang Debao is not a good person, he was once punished by the government for stealing things, this time, he took the money given by Cui's family, and he was not satisfied, and he had to ask for more money. When the people of the Cui family saw that he was not keeping his word, they did not buy his land, they did not return the money for selling the land, they burned the house themselves, and the whole family left Qinghe. ”

Wang Huairen visited seven or eight households in the surrounding area, and the caliber was basically the same, all of them spoke ill of Wang Debao and praised Cui's family.

Wang Huairen went to the county government to obtain materials about Wang Debao and found that Wang Debao had indeed been punished. Moreover, he and Cui Yunhe have a land sale contract, and the guarantor and certifier have all signed and pledged, and after investigation, the caliber is the same.

Wang Huairen was unwilling, and personally went to Wang Debao and Tang Hui's relatives to investigate, and the caliber was the same.

Originally, Wei Zheng and others were full of confidence, thinking that they would soon be able to find out the evidence of Qinghe Cui's illegality, but the result was a big surprise.

A few days passed, and the case-handling personnel investigated all the people in the county, and most of what they heard was Cui's praise, what kind of charity, helping people in difficulty, and also cited a lot of examples.

The case-handling personnel all have experience, and they all feel that there is a problem in it, but the locals are the same, and no one has come out to report Cui's, and they are helpless.

Qinghe County Ya.

Wei Zheng, Hou Junji and Wang Huairen had a headache and discussed countermeasures together.

Hou Junji said angrily: "What the hell, Qinghe Cui's family is about to become a saint." ”

Wang Huairen said: "With my many years of experience in handling cases, it is clear that there are ghosts, and the more they say yes, the more problems there are. ”

Wei Zheng said: "You are right. The people in Qinghe County are either relatives of the Cui family or people who rely on them for food, even those who have nothing to do with them at all, they don't dare to offend them. It's normal that we can't investigate it for a while. ”

Wang Huairen asked, "Lord Wei, what do you say we should do?" ”

Wei Zheng said: "Don't worry, we still have time, you notify the case-handling personnel, strengthen publicity, and reward you heavily." Anyone who has made meritorious contributions to the exposé can get half of the investigated and punished family property if the family property is less than 50,000 yuan after it is verified. If it exceeds 50,000 yuan, the whistleblower can also get another 10,000 to 50,000 yuan reward. ”

Wei Zheng has cooperated with Li You for many years, and his courage to do things has improved a lot.

"Well, in that case, I don't believe that no one is tempted." Wang Huairen said.

Hou Junji added: "Anyone who does not report the information will be punished severely, and the two-pronged approach will be taken, and I don't believe that no one has come forward to expose them." ”

The three of them regained their confidence and waited to see the results.

The investigators visited all the personnel again, even the children of a few years old. However, strangely, no one still came forward to expose Cui's, and the investigation reached an impasse for a while.

This matter is too serious, the imperial court has mobilized tens of thousands of troops and thousands of investigators, and if the investigation does not produce results, it will become a laughing stock, and the credibility of the imperial court will be greatly damaged. The Gate Valve Clan will definitely take advantage of this matter to make a big fuss, and the consequences will be unimaginable.

Li You, the initiator, will also be greatly questioned, and once the imperial court gives in under the pressure of the gate lord clan, he will even become a scapegoat.
