. Yang Hao originally wanted to find some evidence of the wrongdoing of Zhou Wangshu and other unrighteous gentry, and used this to threaten them, asking them to obediently cooperate with him to complete the task of purchasing grain in Sizhou, but he unexpectedly heard such amazing news from Zhu Hongjun's mouth.

Zhu Yuanwai told all his grievances over the years. At the beginning, in order to embezzle the Zhu family's property, the Zhou family resorted to all kinds of despicable means to suppress and exclude and annex the Zhu family's property, the Zhu family was naturally not satisfied, and the lawsuit went to the government, but the Zhou family had already colluded with the Yin prefect's mansion and colluded with the gentry, which made the Zhu family miserable, and the Zhu family spent money like water in order to fight the lawsuit, but lost the lawsuit. The Zhou family was even more proud, and constantly sent some scoundrels to provoke them, and the old lady of the Zhu family hanged herself in anger at the gate of the Jianghuai Road Observation Envoy.

At that time, the Great Song Dynasty had just conquered the Jinghu area, and its influence had not yet expanded to the south of Jianghuai, and it was about to purge the southern officials, and the imperial envoy took this case very seriously, and immediately sent people to investigate the case thoroughly.

It's just that it is said to be a thorough investigation, but most of the local officials and officials are received together with the territory, and the interests of these officials, gentry, and officials are connected to each other and protect each other, and only a few court officials are airborne from Kaifeng Mansion, so how easy is it to get their incriminating evidence?

This case has been investigated for several months, and the local officials and gentry have deliberately hindered it, making the rumors loud, everyone is in danger, no one takes care of political affairs, and the economy is rotten.

After the new prefect Deng Zuyang took office, Zhu Yuanwai continued to sue, hoping to get back the land handed down by his ancestors and punish Zhou Wangshu who forced his father to death. When the imperial court sent someone to Sizhou to investigate the case, Zhou Wangshu panicked in his heart, but he stung for a while, and when he saw that the imperial court could not help him, his arrogance became arrogant again.

He saw that Zhu Hongjun still dared to sue, so he instructed people to attack the Zhu family unscrupulously, and for a time the Zhu family was in trouble, either the backyard was on fire or the field was flooded, and someone in the family was beaten for no reason when they went out today, and tomorrow the gate was splashed with pig blood and dog blood everywhere, which frightened the servants of the Zhu family's courtyard to resign and leave.

Zhu Yuanwai had a heart and vowed to bring Uncle Zhou Wangshu to justice, but he gradually discovered that the new official of the Deng Governor's Mansion was polite to him when he took office, but later he gradually did not treat him well. Every time he went to the Yamen, Zhu Yuanwai always had to be troubled by many parties, whether it was the official of the Yamen or the chief secretary of the hall, he was neither yin nor yang when he saw him, and it was difficult to see the prefect of Deng.

It's hard to see it, and if you can't say three sentences, there will definitely be a small official in the government who holds an "important official document" and asks the lord of the government to deal with it immediately, as soon as this Deng Futai leaves, and I don't know when I want to see him again, a "drag" word trick will drag Zhu Yuanwai to exhaustion, five tuberculosis and seven injuries.

The Zhu family's industry is all taken care of, and this kind of soft knife killing kung fu makes Zhu Yuan's heart disheartened, and the thought of complaining is also light. But at this time, Uncle Zhou Wang refused to give up, and continued to send scoundrels to make trouble every day, which made the Zhu family restless, and not long after, Zhu Yuanwai's son was seduced by a gang of gentlemen to shut down, and the Zhu family's fields, shops, and real estate were all staked, and he lost everything.

When Zhou Wangshu sent someone to come to the door to collect the house and land with the voucher drawn by the Zhu family's son, Zhu Hongjun knew that this was Zhou Wangshu's plan to kill all the envoys, the Zhou family was instantly ruined, his son knew that he was deceived, ashamed to see his parents, and he couldn't think of throwing himself into the river for a while, Zhu Hongjun became a beggar overnight from the pampered Zhu Yuanwai, and the only son in the family committed suicide by throwing himself into the river, Mrs. Zhu was hit hard by this and couldn't afford to get sick, and she couldn't afford to hire a doctor or take medicine in the broken temple, and slept on the damp ground all day. ended up half paralyzed.

After all, Yang Hao has been in the officialdom for a long time, and he knows that it is useless to use his will, unless he goes to pretend to be a good man who sees unevenness on the road, otherwise he must have real evidence to bring the wicked man to justice, and he is to suppress the grievances in his heart, and said in a deep voice: "Zhu Yuanwai, you also know that you can't do it with your words alone. Based on your speculation, it can't be concluded that Deng Zuyang and Uncle Zhou Wangshu have colluded in private, you can't live here, I will pick you up immediately, find a stable and safe place to settle down and send you and your wife, let's talk in detail and see if we can catch their real evidence. ”

Zhu Yuanwai glanced at him deeply, looking like he wanted to say something, and finally just nodded.

Yang Hao is also an outsider in Sizhou, if he wants to settle Zhu Yuanwai and his wife, so that they are safe and secret, there is really no good place to go, he wants to come and go, and only the official ship of King Wei is a place where the power of the Sizhou government and the local gentry cannot penetrate, so he asked Bisu to immediately rush to transfer people to pick up Zhu Yuanwai and his wife to go to Qincha to take a boat, and accompany them in the temple.

Bisu had to hurry to the boat to transfer people, he held Yang Hao's token, Yang Hao is the deputy envoy of the Qincha, and he also has the right to transfer the forbidden army of the Qincha guard of honor and Hu Wei, and immediately transferred a team of soldiers, they went to the temple to remove the half of the door panel, and carried Mrs. Zhu to the door panel, and was about to leave the land temple.

Seeing that Qin Cha and the forbidden army tiger Ben who killed the gods, Zhang Xingba and the others were so powerful and arrogant in Sizhou that they were so arrogant that their souls were scattered. Yang Hao made this land temple a lobby, and immediately "promoted the government to ask the case", Zhang Xingba originally wanted to avoid the serious, so he prevaricated lightly, even if he was imprisoned by this Qin messenger for his attempted rape, and when the Qin mission and his party left Sizhou, with Liu Ye and Zhou Ye to maintain, he would definitely be able to come out.

However, Yang Hao is now about to collect all the incriminating evidence about Zhou Wangshu, and he learned that this land seizure case not only involves Zhou Wangshu but also involves Liu Zhong, the nephew of Deng Wangfu, which confirms what Zhu Yuanwai said about Deng Zuyang and Zhou Wangshu's private collusion, where is he willing to let them leave.

In addition to Zhang Xingba and his minions, there are also Hu's father and daughter, Zhao Zhengcai, even if Zhang Xingba wants to cover it up, it is impossible for Hu Laohan and the three of them to hide it for him, Hu Laohan told the truth of the matter, and Yang Qing, who rushed from Chu Youxiao to report to Zhang Xingba, was pushed to the ground by two guards of the forbidden army with tall horses, strong shoulders and round waists, like chickens, and slammed them on the ground.

As soon as Yang Hao heard that there was another Chu Youxiao and this Zhang Xingba, they were Zhou Wangshu and Liu Zhong's minions respectively, and they were clearly fighting one good and one evil, but in private, they were colluding with each other, knowing that this person was also a key witness, so he hurriedly asked this bastard's own family: "Then where is Chu Youxiao now?" ”

Yang Qing ate and said: "Steward Chu...... Ah no, Chu Youxiao went to Sister Yao'er. ”

Bisu raised his hand and slapped him in the face: "You fucking make it clear, which kiln sister did you go to?" ”

Yang Qing said with a sad face: "This kiln sister, her surname is Yao, so she is called Sister Yao." ”

When Bisu heard this, he couldn't help but be angry and funny, and turned back to Yang Hao and said, "My lord, look? ”

"This is an important witness, and we want to arrest him as well." Yang Hao pondered for a moment, and then said, "Uncle Zhou Wang, Liu Zhong, when do you want to wait back to report the news?" ”

At this point, Zhang Xingba had nothing to hide, and said dejectedly: "How can the trivial matters of dozens of acres of land be used by Liu Ye and Zhou Ye from time to time, but the Hu family offended Liu Ye, and Liu Ye personally ordered it, this matter is done, but he is not in a hurry to reciprocate, Liu Ye and Zhou Ye are busy these two days." ”

Yang Hao was overjoyed when he heard this, and immediately ordered: "There are too many people who are familiar with these people in Sizhou City, if you take them, it is not convenient to go out immediately, you can rest here, and when it gets dark, take them out of Nancheng and make a detour back to the ship." You guys ......."

He pointed to a few forbidden army guards who were not too burly, and ordered: "Take off your military uniform, change into these skinny clothes, and go with this official to get Chu Youxiao." ”

Zhu Yuanwai watched coldly, and was a little moved when he saw Yang Hao's actions like this, Yang Hao turned to him and said: "Zhu Yuanwai, this official originally wanted to invite you to the official ship immediately, but so many people moved too much, in order not to startle the snake, you also have to wait here for a while, and when it gets dark, go on the road with the forbidden army, and the official will go to get Chu Youxiao now." ”

"Make the envoy, Yang Yuan envoy, please wait......"

Zhu Yuanwai finally believed in his sincerity, he hurriedly rushed into the broken temple, arrived in front of the statue of the land lord, dug under the god platform full of holes for a while, took out a rotten package, ran to Yang Hao again, and said excitedly: "Xiaomin is ashamed, Fang Cai is still a little suspicious, so he doesn't dare to sacrifice it." Now the grass people really believe that the adults want to judge the case impartially, my lord, since the family fell to this, Zhu has not been idle, wandering the streets and alleys every day, begging for food, and always staring at the injustice of Liu Zhou's two families, but what I have heard and seen, everything is transcribed here, and the court envoy will find out according to the map, and there will be something to gain. ”

Yang Hao opened the package and took a look, only to see a bald pen inside, half a broken inkstone, and the rest were some uneven, different styles of paper and even cloth, which were densely filled with words, at a cursory glance, they all heard what someone had done, or saw with their own eyes what they instructed Minions to do, time, place, name, and the origin of the matter, all listed in detail, it seems that after a few years of lawsuits, he has quite a lot of experience as a lawyer.

Yang Hao was overjoyed, and he didn't care about it at this time, so he hurriedly put it into his arms, and comforted him: "Zhu Yuanwai has been framed repeatedly, and it is natural to be vigilant, and it is only right that I am ashamed of this official, you can rest assured, you can rest assured, since this matter has fallen into the hands of this official, you must be given justice!" ”
