Chu Huan sighed: "The general naturally didn't succeed. ”

Xuanyuan Shengcai clenched his fists, "Originally, I was nine points sure, the so-called capture of the thief and the king, as long as the old demon Dao is taken, others will naturally not dare to act rashly, and the old demon Dao is a person in the Tianmen Dao, after taking him, he will be able to judge useful information...... It's just that I didn't expect that the Taoist priest who followed the old demon path was not afraid of death, I suddenly made a move, and a Taoist priest next to the old demon dao reacted extremely quickly, and it was actually blocking the ...... between me and the old demon dao! ”

"My goal is to take the old demon path directly, so naturally I won't let him block my path." Xuanyuan Shengcai sneered: "I knocked the Taoist priest who was blocking in the middle with one punch, but as soon as it was delayed, another Taoist priest had already turned around and ran away with the old demon Dao on his back, and the old demon Dao was already shouting, saying that we were the devil's trouble...... The people were taken aback at first, and then ...... Then, like crazy, they all rushed at me......! ”

Chu Huan could even roughly imagine the scene at that time in his mind, in the eyes of those people, the old Taoist priest was the messenger of Taishang Laojun, and the person they worshipped, at this time Xuanyuan Sheng suddenly made a move, for those people who had been brainwashed, Xuanyuan Shengcai was naturally a demon and an enemy who did not share the sky.

The corners of Xuanyuan Shengcai's eyes twitched slightly, and he said in a low voice: "My lord didn't see the scene at that time, those people were all fierce, as if they wanted to tear me apart, I couldn't catch the old demon Dao, but I was surrounded by hundreds of people, and a few brothers under my hand hurriedly went over to protect me, but there were hundreds of people on the other side at that time, and there were only six people on my side, and I didn't even bring weapons in my hands...... The situation can be described as very critical. I persuaded those people at the time, telling them not to be bewitched by the nonsense of the old demon Dao, which is okay, as soon as the words came out, those people were even more crazy, one by one as if they were crazy, we knew that if we didn't kill them, those people would tear us apart alive, and we had no choice but to rush out of the cave. ”

Chu Huan sighed: "The so-called two fists are difficult to defeat the four hands, although the martial arts of you are not weak, General Xuanyuan, you are even more outstanding in martial arts, but you are unarmed, and it is by no means easy to break through the encirclement of hundreds of people who have been bewitched." ”

Xuanyuan Shengcai smiled bitterly: "Who said no, once people go crazy, they can't wake up if they want to, and that's how those people are." Every time we take a step forward, it is very difficult, at first we just open the people who are close to us, knowing that they are also bewitched by people, and do not hurt their lives, but these people are like enchanted people, they are not afraid of death, kick one out, and two will pounce on them, and before they reach the entrance of the cave, there is a ...... on my side! The green tendons on the fist bulged, "Two brothers made a mistake and were thrown to the ground by them...... My lord, you didn't see the scene at that time, the people were like wild beasts, after the two brothers were thrown to the ground, a group of people pounced on them, frantically tearing, someone picked up a stone, and smashed it on our brother's head, just in the blink of an eye, the two brothers were stoned to death, that scene was ......! He closed his eyes and didn't speak for a moment.

Chu Huan knew Xuanyuan Shengcai's mood, and gently patted Xuanyuan Shengcai's shoulder, Xuanyuan Shengcai was silent for a while, finally opened his eyes, and said softly: "We have a few left, in addition to the two brothers who were killed, there are also two brothers who were injured in the tearing, these people will not let us leave at all, we finally rushed out of the hole, they still followed behind, and smashed at us with stones, the mountains and forests are rugged, we can't go fast at all, but some of them are very adapted to the roads in the mountains and forests, Surround us in all directions......! Xiang Chu Huan smiled bitterly: "My lord, I won't tell you, I have never been so embarrassed in my life until now." ”

Chu Huan asked, "Then how did you escape later?" ”

Xuanyuan Shengcai said: "It's still our brothers who are alert, the camp saw that we didn't return overnight, and they have sent a team to chase us, and I have left marks along the way in advance, just in case, they just followed the marks to find it, and when they heard movement in the mountains, a team of only more than 30 people immediately entered the mountains and forests." The Guards are well-trained, and when they came out to look for us, they were equipped with weapons, and those people naturally did not dare to face each other, and when they saw our people killed, they immediately scattered and fled, and I took everyone back to the cave, but those chaotic people had already scattered in the mountains, and they were scattered, and the old demon was no longer in the cave, and we searched carefully in the cave, but we did not find anything useful...... The brothers arrested more than a dozen rebels, and brought back the bodies of the two murdered brothers, this is not a small matter, even if I directly found the local county yamen, there are more than 20 rebels in our hands before and after, we carefully interrogated, although we also got some confessions, but they are irrelevant, these people, in fact, do not know anything, only know that Tianmen Dao wants to save the world, and really want them to talk about Tianmen Dao, but they don't know anything about ......! Hate said: "What a group of stupid and unreachable people! ”

"Where are those people now?"

"They were all detained by the local county yamen." Xuanyuan Shengcai said: "After a delay over there for more than a day, the county yamen later sent people to search the mountain, but did not find any useful clues, I was worried about the situation of the adults here, and I did not dare to delay more, and handed over the bodies of the two brothers to the local county government for preservation, and those chaotic people were also temporarily imprisoned in the county ya, and led people to Taiyuan first...... My lord, if the matter in Taiyuan is over, I think it is necessary to investigate the matter of Tianmen Dao! ”

Chu Huan smiled faintly and said, "Maybe as soon as the matter in Taiyuan is over, Tianmen Dao will completely surface in Anyi." He also said: "General Xuanyuan, you have worked hard all the way, let the people of Xingyuan prepare food first, you and the brothers eat first, and then rest for a day or two......!" After a pause, he said thoughtfully: "I'm afraid that there will be more and more difficult things waiting for us in the future." ”

On this day, Chu Huan did not leave Xingyuan, Xuanyuan Shengcai and others had just arrived, and they rested for a day.

In the evening, Xuanyuan Shengcai recuperated his spirits, and then came to Chu Huan to learn about Taiyuan, Chu Huan told Xuanyuan Shengcai in detail about some things that could be told, and heard that the commander of the Weisuo Army made Li Wangsun poisoned and assassinated, and passed the news through blue and white porcelain, Xuanyuan Shengcai was very surprised, but for the eight-character language of "will be in the public gate, Lao Jun Xi Po", Xuanyuan Shengcai is also unsolved.

Chu Huan spent the next few days with the people of the Household Department to take stock of the Huang family's family property, some accounts, naturally not just sit in the house and look at the account books, you need to personally inspect, such as the shops left by the Huang family, according to the instructions of His Majesty the Emperor, the Huang family's land and the fixed assets of the shops, Chu Huan has the right to sell them, convert them into gold and silver, and then transport them back to the capital, Chu Huan naturally has to inspect the size and location of these shops first, and then have a rough understanding of the market price in Taiyuan, so that these fixed properties can be disposed of.

Before Chu Huan went out to work in the Household Division, it was Xingyuan's guards who were responsible for protecting, and after Xuanyuan Shengcai's guards arrived, Xuanyuan Shengcai personally took on the task of guarding, guarding Chu Huan's side every day, and it could be regarded as not leaving an inch, guarding Chu Huan's safety wholeheartedly.

In fact, in the past few days, Chu Huan has not only had a lot of contact with the people in the Taiyuan Household Division, but also had a lot of contact with the businessmen of Taiyuan Mansion.

Chu Huan knew very well in his heart that although the most difficult thing was to investigate the real culprit of the murder of Shen Yiwei, for the current imperial court, the most direct benefit was to confiscate the Huang family's wealth.

On the southeast side, Lei Guheng is leading the army to suppress Tianmen Dao, if he can fight quickly, he will naturally be happy, but once the war is delayed slightly, then the household yamen will be under great pressure.

In case the war in the southeast really does not go well, it is very likely that the Hubu Yamen will not be able to provide strong logistical support for the war ahead, the emperor is still clear about this, so before leaving, the emperor also emphasized that the Huang family's fixed property, the imperial court does not need it, what is needed is that Chu Huan can bring a large amount of money and grain to Beijing from Anyi's family raiding affairs.

The Huang family is rich and rivals the country, if the Huang family's family assets can be fully charged to the household department, then it will inevitably solve the urgent needs of the household department, even if the war on the southeast front is not going well, the empire can still provide some support.

Therefore, Chu Huan naturally revealed that he wanted to sell the fixed property of the Huang family and convert it into cash, after all, these things will have to be fully cooperated by the master and the head of the household department, Chu Huan does not hide the knowledge of selling the Huang family's property, and the master is in the household department, and he has to contact those big and small businessmen on weekdays, and there are naturally many friends among them, in fact, the merchants of Anyi Road have always been extremely concerned about how the court deals with the Huang family's family property.

The Huang family has hundreds of shops in the states of Anyi Road, and has formed a huge local business network in Anyi, and the land of the Huang family is a fertile land with an extremely advantageous geographical location, and all of them are looking at it with their eyes up and down, when Chu Huan revealed that the fixed property of the Huang family was about to be sold and disposed of, those businessmen who had been looking forward for a long time naturally could not continue to sit still, and they were trying their best to connect with Chu Huan, although everyone did not know that Chu Huan wanted to investigate the truth about the murder of Shenyiwei, But they all know that this Lord Qincha came to Anyi to confiscate the Huang family's wealth, and the sale of the Huang family's fixed property is in the hands of this Lord Qincha, so everyone wants to be close to Chu Huan, as long as they can buy this Lord Qincha first, it is naturally easy to get the Huang family's fixed property in their hands.

The best way is to be able to get the master first, and then use the master as the matchmaker to meet the Qincha, so these days, the master follows Chu Huan to deal with official business during the day, and when he returns to the house at night, the cars and horses in front of the door and behind the house are like clouds, and the businessmen have come to the door to send gifts to meet him, hoping that the master can arrange the opportunity to meet Lord Qincha.

The master of the man's money and affairs with people, really arranged a part of the time every day, so that the businessmen came to meet Chu Huan, he said that Chu Huan was a good relationship with the Taiyuan business community, and he could learn more about the situation of the Huang family in the business community of Anyi, Chu Huan knew the doorway, but he still met with a few businessmen every day, and the "thin gift" offered by the businessmen, Chu Huan accepted it unceremoniously, and when he talked about other issues, Chu Huan was smiling and did not say much, and the businessmen naturally did not know, This Lord Qincha has long had a plan for how to sell the Huang family's fixed property.
