Chapter 990: Turning the Face (I)

Zhang Yanling is rich and powerful, whether it is for pomp and circumstance, or for doing some shady things with useful manpower, he does have some people on his hands. Most of these people act as white gloves, acting as thugs for the Hou Mansion, and they can also do the same thing about killing, and their origins are inevitably a little embarrassing. There are also some so-called skilled people, or they are unpredictable prophets, or they can call the wind and rain, and it is not surprising that they are demons.

This era is an era of superstition, and high-ranking officials also believe in warlocks, and it is actually normal to raise some such people. On the contrary, it is a complete non-believer like Yang Chengzu, who neither believes in Taoism nor worships Buddha at home, and is considered an outlier in this era. But under the guidance of well-intentioned people, these charlatans are said to be demons who practice demon laws to harm people, plus wooden people, it has to be regarded as conclusive evidence.

These crowds had no power to fight back in front of Jinyiwei, and some people wanted to resist, but they were immediately killed on the spot by the large array that Jinyiwei had practiced, and the rest of them could only be captured. Those magic sticks usually toss some things that no one understands, saying that they use demon magic, but it's not that no one believes them at all, as for those wooden people or something, Zhang Yanling also saw it for the first time, and he didn't know how it appeared in his back garden.

Subsequently, in several places, similar wooden figures were found successively, with steel needles inserted on them, and the eight characters of birth were written, which did look like witches from the scene. Yang Chengzu is very generous

"This, it can't necessarily be said that Zhang Chitose practices witchcraft, which is not good for Banzai, right? Maybe this birthday is an enemy, or is Zhang Chitose praying for himself? This kind of thing, we don't understand, we can only ask Tao Zhenren. Come on, send the thing to Tao Zhenren, and ask him to take a look at the old man, what it is. As for Zhang Chitose, no one can be rude, return all the things, and fill in the holes dug. That Chitose, I'm sorry, look at what your house has been dug into, don't worry, when we leave, we will make sure that everything is filled. You said how did you sit on the ground, you can't sit on the ground on such a cold day, and you have something to sit up and say. ”

He pulled Zhang Yanling up, pressed him on the Taishi chair, and hugged his fists again, "I am on official business, it is inconvenient to stay for a long time, and the next official has resigned." Until this matter is cleared, I hope you don't just go out and walk around. In order to protect your safety, the ministers will send some guards to guard outside the mansion to ensure that you do not have accidents. Now, I'm going to go to the Shouning Marquis Mansion to see your brother, and I hope there are no little wooden people there. ”

The team left Zhang's Mansion, and those big pits were just filled in a few times, and the Hou Mansion was like a military disaster, almost in ruins. Those exotic flowers and plants transplanted from all over the country were thrown everywhere, and some people trampled on them from above, and they were a mess.

A housekeeper ran over anxiously, "Master, it's not good, these people are not clean, and several of your beloved objects are now gone." and the authentic painting of Wang Xizhi, which was also taken away by them. ”

Before the words fell, a middle-aged beautiful woman rushed out of the back house crying bitterly, "Master, take a look, the female devil of Guo Jiujie broke into the inner house with a group of thugs and captured Zhu'er, you must save her." ”

Zhang Yanling's face was like ashes, he sat motionless on the chair, and muttered in his mouth, "Take it, they can take whatever they want, it won't be long before the rest of the things are almost gone." It's all over. ”

The same storm, not long after, also swept through the Shouning Marquis Mansion, Zhang Heling was slightly smarter than his brother, but the gap was limited after all. In the face of this general trend, he can't do anything, and the only thing he is stronger than his brother is to prepare the family property in advance. Yang Chengzu brought people here and took the initiative to hand over all the family property, just to let him go once. It's a pity that he was pressed on the chair by a few brocade clothes and couldn't move, and after watching the brocade guards search out the wooden man from his house, he roared away.

At home, Guo Jiujie looked at the authentic painting of Wang Xizhi with an excited face, "Really, this painting is the authentic handwriting of the sage, let's give it to my father, and his old man will be happy." Promise me, give this thing to Dad, don't give it to Your Majesty, okay. As she spoke, she grabbed Yang Chengzu's arm and shook it cutely, and Yang Chengzu slapped her on the head

"Okay, I know in my heart, this good thing, we left it for ourselves. Those that should be handed over to Banzai will be said when the house is raided. But I said you just take the things, what are you doing with a big living person? She looks soft and weak, you let her be a maid, and six can't stand up to one of our Yuhuan. ”

Yuhuan was hurriedly changing diapers for Tianyou, hearing this, her face flushed, as a girl in the room, she didn't expect to get the love of the master, it was worth it to have such a sentence or two of praise. The ninth sister smiled

"Xianggong, you don't know, I knew this Zhang Yunzhu at the beginning, and I also participated in a group of women's literary meetings. She can write a poem, do something like that, she looks down on me, and scolds me, I can't hear it, I think she praises me, and everyone laughs at me for being stupid. Later, she also arranged me, saying that I like women because it is a big rebellion, not men or women, hum, it's angry to think about it. This time she fell into my hands, and she felt better. Let's talk ...... again."

A strange smile appeared on her face, "Let's sleep with her together, and then I will see her cry, and see her in pain, so that I can relieve my hatred." ”

"You go and sleep with her yourself, I'll sleep in our Yuhuan, that thin and weak one, I'm afraid of killing her." Yang Chengzu said while hugging the jade ring, although the latter is also a woman with strong martial arts, but her identity is limited, and when she is hugged by the master's family, she has no strength, and only looks at the ninth sister shyly.

Guo Jiujie waved her hand on the road, "It's okay, Xianggong is happy, you can serve Xianggong first, I have to clean up this painting first, and with it, I will give it to my father as a birthday gift, I see who can be better than me this year." ”

At this point, Yang Chengzu's work is half completed, and the rest is to confess. Under the punishment of Jinyiwei, few people can hold on to it, and these rivers and lakes are not loyal people, and after only a few punishments, some people began to be unable to bear the punishment and confided all the crimes they knew.

In addition to the confession that Yang Chengzu needed, the things they recruited also involved some bad cases that had happened in the past in Jingshi. In the cases that Qin Zongquan investigated in the past, some were suppressed, and some had no clues, and only now did he know who did it, and people became enthusiastic, and all kinds of means came out when he asked about the case, and the screams in the cell were from morning to night.

He Zongli once betrayed him, and he was a little embarrassed with his senior brother, but now looking at his senior brother's appearance, it seems that he really likes this job, and it doesn't look like he was forced. He asked tentatively, "Senior brother, you still look quite energetic?" ”

"Of course there is spirit, such a big case is about to be solved, how can everyone not be energetic when they eat public dinner. You know about this Jingshi extermination case, at the beginning, our two brothers didn't sleep for a few days, and they couldn't solve it, and this arson case, the family that died was my informant, and I swore to take revenge. I can understand you now, if we want to realize our ideals, Dongchang is more suitable for us than the Criminal Department. The Metropolitan Governor is a character. ”

On the side of the palace, after the wooden figure was dug up, Sun Xueniang and the Jiang family announced that they had completely recovered, and as soon as Xueniang was in good health, she went to serve the Empress Dowager Zhang as usual. Under her attentive service, Empress Dowager Zhang's health improved quickly, and on the second day of Zhang's raid, Empress Dowager Zhang woke up.
