Jiujiang was too guarded by the mansion, and Liu Miao saw Zhao Shijiu who he brought back. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info

At this time, Zhao Shijiu's leg injury had been bandaged by the doctor, and he had changed into clean clothes and eaten. It can be seen that Zhao Shijiu's mental state is much better than at the city gate, but he has been in a daze.

Under Lu Jun's introduction, Zhao Shijiu knew that the young man in front of him was Liu Taishou, he was busy struggling to kneel down and salute, but his leg was inconvenient, so he had to prostrate on the ground, and said gratefully: "The villain thanks Lord Taishou for his treatment!" ”

Liu Miao motioned to the soldiers to help Zhao Shijiu, and then said: "I am the county guard, and it is my responsibility to save the people and make decisions for the people." It's just that I've heard that you still don't want to say who harmed you, why is that? ”

"If the villain tells the truth, the family will inevitably be robbed, and I ask Lord Taishou to forgive the villain's mistakes."

"Ben Taishou can keep your family safe!"

A glimmer of light flashed in Zhao Shijiu's eyes, but it dissipated after a while, and he hesitated: "The villain has no complaints. ”

Liu Miao knew that Zhao Shijiu still didn't believe in him very much, and it seemed that the fear of ordinary people for the Lei family had long been ingrained. Liu Miao shook his head and stopped wasting time here with Zhao Shijiu.

Back in the study, Liu Miao asked Liu Ji: "Berwin, Zhao Shijiu didn't dare to tell the murderer, what can I do?" ”

Liu Ji touched his short hair and replied: "Actually, whether Zhao Shijiu's testimony or not has little impact. If my expectations are correct, the lord's actions today have already alarmed the Lei family, and with the Lei family's always domineering nature, it is very likely that he will take risks. ”

"Taking a risk? Do they dare to lead troops to attack Taishoufu? Liu Miao said.

"It's not enough to attack it openly, but if you assassinate it, you maybe."

"It's better if you dare to come, I'm worried about the lack of a breakthrough point!" Liu Miao is full of confidence in his own safety, and the Taishou Mansion seems to be loose and unprepared, but in fact, there are a lot of secret sentinels, even if Lu Bulai, the world's number one master, may not be able to get close to Liu Miao.

That night, Liu Miao slept in his clothes and ordered the soldiers to secretly strengthen their vigilance.

It's a pity that the whole night was calm, and the Lei family didn't take any action.

On the second day, Liu Miao found Liu Ji again.

"Lei Bo has already made a mistake before, and it is difficult to expect them to make a second mistake. We still have to take the initiative and force the Lei family out. ”

Liu Ji thought for a while, nodded and said, "What the lord said is reasonable. Now the only breakthrough is the Zhao 19 case, and we can make a fuss about it. ”

"How?"

According to General Zhang Liao's investigation, the person who injured Zhao Shijiu was most likely Lei Bo's younger brother Lei Xu. We can send someone to pretend to be a whistleblower, write out the matter and put it in the book box, and the lord will use this letter to arrest Lei Xu, and then further build momentum to arouse the enthusiasm of the people to report the illegal deeds of the Lei family. ”

"Okay, that's it!" Liu Miao nodded and agreed to Liu Ji's plan.

"Childe, Zhao Nineteen was poisoned!" Suddenly, Mu Guiying walked in and brought bad news.

"What's going on?" Liu Miao frowned.

"Captain Lu is outside, the son can ask him about the specific situation."

"Call Lu Jun in!"

After a while, Lu Jun walked in, and before Liu Miao could ask, he knelt down on one knee and said apologetically: "Jun has disappointed the prince, and please punish the monarch!" ”

Liu Miao stepped forward to help Lu Jun and said, "Let's talk about what's going on first, right?" ”

Lu Jun replied reproachfully: "Today, my subordinates got the news that someone was making trouble at the south gate book box, and my subordinates were worried that the book box would be destroyed, so they took someone to check it. At that time, it was about to be breakfast time, and his subordinates had to hand over the matter of delivering food to Zhao Shijiu to a county soldier named Wu Xin. Who knew that after his subordinates came back from the south gate, they found that Zhao Shijiu had been poisoned, and Wu Xin was nowhere to be found. After examination, it was found that the food eaten by Zhao Shijiu was poisonous. This is the negligence of subordinates, and such an important matter should not be assigned to others at will. ”

"Who delivered food to Zhao Shijiu in the past?" Liu Miao asked.

"It's a subordinate who personally delivers the meal."

"Is there something going on at the South Gate Book Drop Box?"

"Nothing! The soldiers who guarded the drop-off boxes were carefully selected by their subordinates, who were worried about this at the time. Later, I realized that someone deliberately lured me away to create an opportunity to poison Zhao Shijiu. ”

Liu Miao thought for a while and said: "You can't be blamed for this, the other party has been planning for a long time, and it can't be prevented, but the county soldiers really need to be cleaned." Don't leak the death of Zhao Shijiu first, and seize the time to arrest Wu Xin, this is your chance to atone for your crimes. ”

"Obey the order, the subordinates will not disappoint the prince again this time!" Lu Jun reassured, then turned to leave.

"Lord, this is my negligence, I thought that the Lei family might kill people, but I only thought of assassination, and ignored the way of poisoning." As soon as Lu Jun left, Liu Ji apologized to Liu Miao.

"The matter has already happened, and there is no point in pursuing responsibility, just learn a lesson in the future." Liu Miao knew that now was not the time to investigate who was right and who was wrong, so he asked Liu Ji: "Now that Zhao Shijiu is dead, what can I do?" ”

"Actually, it's not all bad." Liu Ji thought for a while, and suddenly asked, "Why does the lord have to punish the Lei family?" ”

Although I don't know why Liu Ji asked like this, Liu Miao still replied: "The Lei family is one of the three families of Shouchun, and they have great authority in the county, and they have always been arrogant and domineering, and they are unpopular. As long as the Lei family can be defeated, it will be able to greatly deter the rest of the powerful and completely control the power in the county. ”

"In that case, why does the lord have to get ironclad evidence?"

Liu Miao said: "To govern counties and even the country, we must first establish a legal system and govern it by law, so as to win back the hearts of the people." The powerful clan is also a people under its rule, and it must be dealt with in this way, otherwise it will not be able to convince the public, and those powerful clans will think that I am deliberately targeting them. Once this reputation is established and spreads, if we want to enter other states and counties in the future, it will inevitably cause resistance from the local powerful clans. ”

Liu Ji said: "The lord's concerns are very reasonable, but they are biased. Now that it is determined that the Lei family has committed a lot of illegal things, but they cannot be punished because there is no ironclad evidence, can the lord give up? Liu Ji looked at Liu Miao, saw that he was thoughtful, and said: "According to some of the information obtained by General Zhang Liao, it can be concluded that Zhao Shijiu's case must be related to the Lei family. In this case, it is better to forge Zhao Shijiu's confession, and then make a fuss on the book box, treat these perjuries as empirical evidence, and open a hole first, maybe the Lei family can go down in one go. Now that Zhao Shijiu has been poisoned, after the Lei family confirms the news, they will definitely relax their vigilance, and this is a good opportunity. ”

Liu Miao thought about Liu Ji's words, and he also realized that he was on the tip of the bull's horns, and he only thought about verifying the evidence before dealing with the Lei family. It's not that this method is wrong, it's just that in today's situation, it's really a bit pedantic. Since everyone knows that the Lei family has a problem, why use the conventional way? Even if some evidence is faked, ordinary people will believe it.

It's like being a king and a tyrant, either way can go wrong, and a combination of both can be invincing.

Thinking of this, Liu Miao finally had an idea, so he ordered: "Order Zhang Liao to secretly arrest Lei Xu and monitor the movements of the Lei family's manor; ordered Li Jing to find out the entanglement between Zhao Shijiu and the Lei family; Xu Da continued to search the Lei family's past illegal deeds, and sorted them out and put them in the book box. In addition, Zhao Shijiu's family was rewarded with 100,000 yuan, which was said to be a commendation for Zhao Shijiu's reporting and widely publicized. ”

"Yes!" Liu Ji quickly went out to make arrangements.

"Ding! The system publishes a new task, please pay attention to check it. ”
