After that, Cai Dacheng took Su Yi and others out to investigate the situation in the county.

A day flies by in a blink of an eye.

That night, Cai Dacheng left enough manpower to protect Zhao Jiao, and then led his men to arrest Gou County.

After Cai Dacheng left, Zhao Jiao was a little uneasy, and she still got up after hesitation.

Huang Shan, who was outside the door, heard the movement and hurriedly asked, "Madam, is there something wrong?" ”

Zhao Jiao opened the door, "You go find a set of ragged clothes, the man is small, hurry up." ”

Huang Shan didn't dare to object, but he couldn't let Zhao Jiao out of his sight, so he ordered the little soldiers around him to find a set as soon as possible.

A quarter of an hour later, Zhao Jiao dressed up properly, and when she came out, she carried a small cloth bag, and asked Huang Shan to take her out of the inn, she could go anywhere, but she couldn't stay here.

"Madam, are you afraid?"

"Don't be afraid of 10,000, just in case!

Our people can come and arrest people in the middle of the night, why can't they?

We're living in the eyes of others right now. ”

"I have investigated during the day, and there is an alley behind our room, and there are many people living in it, why don't you go there?" Huangshan didn't know where to go for a while.

"Don't be so troublesome, let's go to the inn next door, find the firewood room and stay until dawn, it's late and quiet, and the alley is not safe."

"Yes!" When the words fell, he asked one of the guards to lead the way, Zhao Jiao in the middle, he followed, and then two guards.

The rest of the people hid around the inn, and they had to keep an eye on the situation at the inn at all times, and disperse and retreat in case something was wrong.

I don't know how long it has been, Zhao Jiao feels extremely difficult.

At this time, it was only the beginning of March, the temperature would not exceed five degrees, and in the middle of the night, the three watches hid in the firewood room, and the whole person only felt cold and biting, and couldn't stop shivering.

She can still rely on the pile of firewood and grass to keep warm, and she still feels a little comforted, compared to her, aren't those guards colder? Because they're still out on guard!

Just when she felt that she was about to become a pimple, Huang Shan walked in and whispered back:

"Madame! Something happened to the inn where we stayed! ”

"Got it clear?"

"The perimeter was surrounded by fifty or sixty people, oil was poured on it, and the house was on fire!" Huang Shan was afraid, and at the same time he admired it, he was really afraid that his wife would have an accident here.

In order to prevent Cai Da from becoming distracted, half an hour ago, he had sent someone to relay the news that they had evacuated to him, and now everyone was hiding and waiting for dawn.

On the ninth day of the first month of March, the people of Yixian County will always remember this day.

Although more than 300 people were beheaded at the entrance of the vegetable market, and the blood was sticky so that the entire road surface was fishy, dark and black, and there was a disgusting smell, they were cheering like a New Year!

Because the bullies and yacha who bullied them were all cut down on the street...

Because the black-hearted county order that oppressed them was also cut...

Because the new prefectural order is about to take office...

Because it was confirmed that the imperial court had exempted them from paying taxes for three years...

Because......

There are so many reasons that the people have forgotten the poverty and destitution that they have been tossed up, and they have forgotten that they have been oppressed by the harsh government, and they are only full of hope!

Hope for a stable life...

Hopes for a new prefectural ordinance...

Hope for the harvest after the tax exemption...

It is full of expectations for the Rong Dynasty and the current emperor!

Their request is so simple, Zhao Jiao was in it, and she was also moved by them.

Last night, the inn where she was staying had been burned to the ground, after all, it was a wooden structure, and it was set on fire again.

After Zhu Quan brought people over to arrest those people, he organized the store and nearby residents to put out the fire.

The innkeeper wants to cry without tears, and he will come to disaster!

Fortunately, the government subsidized an additional 1,000 taels of silver, although it was not enough to rebuild, but it was a lot, and it could be rebuilt if it was compact.

This time, he arrested Gou County, and also rescued hundreds of workers who were imprisoned by him doing heavy physical work, as well as the original Gou County Order's family who was ruined by him.

Originally, the onlookers in the county still wanted to throw the county order's wife's stones and rotten vegetable leaves, but they were forbidden by the guards around them, and loudly reported that their mother and son were also victims, and their real Gou county order had been killed when they came to the county office.

The murder of the Gou County family goes back to four years ago.

Gou County Ling Gou Ying, the only son in the family, was admitted to the Jinshi and was sent by the imperial court to be a magistrate in the county.

Because his parents had already died, he took his wife and children to the county to take office.

At that time, Lord Zhang, the state capital who went to Huozhou with him to take office, walked with him all the way, accompanied by Xu Changying, Master Zhang's master.

Because it is in the same direction, and Lord Zhang is his future boss, Gou County Ling is very respectful and polite to Lord Zhang and Xu Changying.

And Xu Changying looks very similar to him, he has to be six or seven points alike, and unfamiliar outsiders often mistake them, causing Gou County Ling to have a good impression of him, and take him like a brother.

Gou Xianling is also very honest, he has been locked up at home in the past, he doesn't listen to things outside the window, he only knows how to read, and his ideas are inevitably a little naïve.

has just transferred from a scholar to officialdom, and there are not many city governments, and with the deepening of exchanges between the two sides, unconsciously, the situation of his family has been completely wiped out by Zhang Futai and others.

Zhang Futai never thought of making money and killing people, but who called the opportunity so rare?

What's more, who called Gou Xianling and Xu Changying look so similar?

When he reached the realm of Huozhou and entered Yixian County, something happened that made him decide to kill the killer, and he was ready to let Xu Changying replace the position of Gou County Commander.

That afternoon, they passed through a market town called Wangjiaji, and decided to stay and repair it for the night, because the next day they only needed to hurry a little more, and Gou Xianling would be able to take up his post in the afternoon of Yixian.

Although this Wangjiaji is not big, it is a must for merchants from the south to the north of Huozhou Prefecture, and it is also a must place for several nearby villages to exchange for agricultural products and daily necessities, so there are two decent inns.

After checking in and resting for a while, Zhang Futai took Xu Changying and called Gou County Order, and several people sat around the lobby for dinner.

He wanted to gather information about the travel from north to south through the exchange of diners.

The result lived up to expectations, and in less than half an hour, he actually overheard an important piece of information on the table next door.

Panjia Village, which is only more than ten miles away from the county seat of Yixian County, has been found to have a large amount of silver ore and a small amount of gold ore on the back mountain.

This is a huge fortune from heaven, how can he let it go?

When he raised his eyes and saw the two people who looked so similar to each other, a bold idea suddenly came to his heart, that is, to replace Gou County's order with Xu Changying, and let Xu Changying make him silver in the county!

Even if the news is fake, there's nothing to lose, right?

Because after the transfer, he will have one more confidant in this prefecture, and he can help himself do a lot of things in the future.

The more he thought about it, the more he felt that this method was feasible, as long as he killed Gou County, many things would be easy to handle, and the key thing was that if he killed him and his wife and children, no one would avenge them!

Slowly, he stopped the chopsticks in his hand, thinking that this table full of delicious food could no longer fill the gap in his heart.

And Gou Xian Ling on the other side didn't know that he was about to come in a big disaster, and he didn't know that the person sitting opposite was thinking about how to break his neck at this time, and kept persuading the other party to eat vegetables, and brought Zhang Futai's favorite pig ears to his right hand to facilitate the clipping.
