Chapter 238: Collaboration with the enemy and betrayal of the country

"Second sister, don't force me to do it with you." Fifth Sister Yin shouted anxiously.

If it weren't for the fact that she got along with the Song family happily during this time, Fifth Sister Yin would not have said anything and directly sent Song Yue away.

"Calm down." Shen Yi opened his mouth and said: "No matter what the truth is, the purpose of this letter is very clear, that is, to ask me to go to Yinjiabao. ”

"You can't go!" The Song family spoke at the same time.

"Shen Yi, the purpose of this letter is not clear, but you went to Yinjiabao, I am afraid that it will be more auspicious." Song Yang frowned, but he couldn't figure it out.

"Give me two days, and if you can't find any clues, I'll go with you." Song Mu said.

"Xianggong!" Hang Kite's eyes were red on the side, obviously afraid that Song Mu would be in danger, but he couldn't say anything to stop it.

"No matter where you go, I'll go with you, don't try to leave me behind, otherwise it's not impossible for me to chase me alone." Song Yue expressed her attitude, "I'm not a big belly this time, and your reasons are all useless." ”

Shen Yi smiled bitterly, he knew Song Yue's temperament, otherwise he would not have persuaded Song Yue when he decided to go to the capital, but would have sent his son to Song's house.

Song Sanshan and Song Lu wanted to say something, but the palms and backs of their hands were full of meat, and they couldn't give up any of them, so they could only be secretly anxious.

Yin Wumei looked at the Song family, her heart was inexplicably a little sour, she thought for a moment and brushed Song Yue's hand away and said, "Since you are also going to Jincheng, then I will stay and wait for you to join me, it is more convenient for me to lead the way." ”

Yin Wumei's personality, the Song family knows it very well, this girl is most similar to Song Yue's personality, but she is a little more straightforward than Song Yue, she has always written everything on her face, and she will never do it secretly.

Song Xingchen, who was far away in Fengqi City, naturally didn't know what was happening in the Song family, and she didn't know that her eldest sister was in danger, and she had been busy taking over the Gao family's property in the past few days.

Although the Gao family is the largest family in Fengqi City, once it falls, there is only a skeleton left.

The prefect is a good person, when checking the Gao family's property, most of the antiques, calligraphy and paintings were sealed to pay tribute to the Rui Palace, and some of the gold, silver and jewelry were given to Song Xingchen as a gift, Song Xingchen smiled and put it away, otherwise the prefect is afraid that it will be difficult to feel at ease.

The Gao family's property was sold at a low price, although the prefect did not say anything clearly, but at the auction site, he arranged for Song Xingchen to sit in the main seat, and he did not hide the friendship between the two, and not a fool understood what he meant.

is because when Song Xingchen wants to shoot which industries, no one competes with her at all, but Song Xingchen does not make it difficult for the prefect, and only buys fifty percent of the Gao family's properties, leaving a piece of the local people, which is not offended.

The affairs of the Gao family were handled properly, and Song Xingchen asked Reborn to stay and take care of it for the time being, mainly to test who could continue to be retained.

"Send this to the capital, you must personally hand it over to the prince." Song Xingchen wrote a letter, sealed it and put it in the box, and handed it to Reborn to do.

In this box is a list of the things that the prefect gave to the Rui Wangfu, and there is also half of the property rights that Song Xingchen bought from the Gao family, and it is most appropriate to hand it over to Zhou Feng through Zhou Anxu's hand.

As for the silver and jewelry left by the prefect to Song Xingchen, Song Xingchen said that she would continue to develop the business empire, and the silver was far from enough, so she could only take it for herself.

"This is a secret letter from Yongchang, and the fourth lady will use it to pass the time on the way." Rebirth took out a booklet from his bosom, and it was the relationship network and economic situation of Yongchang Mansion.

"Your efficiency is getting higher and higher, if Fengqi City also got all the information in advance, we should be in Jincheng by now." Song Xingchen opened the booklet and glanced at it, expressing satisfaction with the information on the opposite side.

But these days have been busy, Song Xingchen didn't plan to open it now, but looked at Rebirth and asked, "How is the caravan prepared?" With less than two months to go, it is possible to open Song Kee's trade route? ”

"The personnel are ready, the stops along the route are being renovated, and in another month, the caravan will be ready to depart." Rebirth replied.

"Very good, this time you returned to Beijing, and set off with the caravan, they were on the road for the first time, and I was a little worried." Song Xingchen rubbed his eyebrows and said: "The few subordinates you have cultivated should also be the time to train them, and in the future, you still have to follow me, or supervise me everywhere, you can't do everything yourself." ”

"My subordinates understand, thank you for your trust." Rebirth solemn salute.

"Remember, you are my subordinate, not a minion, so you don't have to be too restrained." Picking up the teacup, Song Xingchen was just about to drink tea, and remembered what was to be arranged in the capital, so he got up and took out a stack of silver tickets, "The income from the capital side, don't move it for the time being, you give these silver to the people in the capital, let them just let it go." ”

"Yes." Reborn put away the silver ticket, and when he saw Song Xingchen yawning, he held the box in his arms, took two steps back, and said: "If the fourth lady has no other instructions, her subordinates will retire, and they will return to Beijing as soon as the city gate opens tomorrow morning." ”

"Well, it's hard work, stay safe on the road." Song Xingchen waved his hand, signaling that Rebirth could leave.

In Jincheng, Yelang hid on the beam of the prefect's study in a night suit, holding his breath and staring at the two people talking inside.

"This is impossible, this official is just the prefect, and he has no right to call the army, not to mention that there is still a distance from the border pass, even if the official transfers all the city guards, he will not be able to get close to the fortress at all, and He Xiaze, who guards the city, has the title of killing Yama, except for his senior brother Song Mu, no one can let him open the city gate without listening to the instructions of the imperial court." The prefect's tone was a little rushed, and his face was not good-looking.

The man sitting opposite, dressed in elegant clothes, always looked light, except that his appearance was not as good as An Xuyan, but there was a little bit of his shadow.

"Since you chose to stand on the side of the three princes, you have no right to say no, I advise you to think about it for your people, the temper of the three princes is not very good, and there is not such a good temperament waiting for you to think clearly." The elegant man's voice was warm and good, but it was murderous.

"You're forcing me to die!" The prefect blushed angrily.

"If you want to win glory and wealth, you must have the spirit of adventure, and it is not so easy to get from the dragon's skill." As the elegant man spoke, he stood up and tidied up the folds of his clothes, and then said with a smile: "In three days, I will wait for the reply of the adult, if the adult can't do it, then I can only change someone to be the prefect." is not talented in Xia Bucai, and he is also a serious imperial examination background, with three princes as a guarantee, it is not difficult to be a prefect. ”

"But when you enter the Yin Family Fort, you are a person from the rivers and lakes, how can you be an official?" The prefect's face was slightly pale, but there was still a hint of luck.

"If I want to, why not?" The elegant man hooked his lips and smiled, and said contemptuously: "Don't forget that I am the An family, there is only what the An family dare not do, and there is nothing that cannot be done." ”

The elegant man let out a lot of words and left with a smile.

The prefect sat down on the chair in a daze, without any movement for a long time, with a dead face.

Offending the three princes did not end well, the prefect had already seen examples from his colleagues, but what he asked him to do this time was undoubtedly to send him to death, and it didn't end well.

"It's my lack of greed that has harmed my clansmen!" The prefect sighed, slumped in his chair, and burst into tears.

"You alone is not enough to die, but your ancestors have been disgraced, from now on, what face do you have to see your ancestors under the nine springs?" Yelang jumped down, his face wearing a mask.

"Who are you? Why is it in the official study? The prefect sat up in fright, but he didn't shout for help.

"I have received the grace of the Yang family for a meal, but today I think about this kindness." Yelang's cold gaze shot at the prefect, "If you die, the Yang family can still protect the nine clans, and I can save the life of your son." ”

"Is that true?" The prefect looked at the light of hope, and then asked vigilantly, "What are your conditions?" What do you want the officer to do? ”

"Hand over the evidence that the three princes collaborated with the enemy and betrayed the country." Yelang said coldly.

"I don't know what you're talking about!" The prefect's eyes flickered, and he pretended to be annoyed and shouted: "Slandering the royal family, the nine clans of this official are really not guaranteed, who sent you?" What's in your heart? ”

Yelang glanced at the prefect and walked straight to the position behind him, the long sword against the prefect's neck, and whispered a few words in his ear.

I saw that the prefect's face was getting darker and darker, and finally his body was so weak that he couldn't even stand on the table.

If it hadn't been for Yelang's timely removal of the sword, his throat would have been cut.

"Who are you? Why do you know so much detail? The prefect asked in a trembling voice.

"I said that the Yang family has a meal for me, otherwise why would you leave a bloodline?" Yelang's voice was impatient, "You don't have a choice. ”

The prefect closed his eyes fiercely, knowing that Yelang was forcing him to make a statement, but he really had no choice.

"Okay, I hope you can keep your promise, otherwise I won't let you be at peace!" The prefect put down the cruel words, picked up the pen and wrote a confession, bit his finger and pressed the handprint, then opened the secret compartment and handed over the evidence he had stored for many years to Yelang, "The child is innocent, please give him a way out, there is a secret compartment in the study of my other courtyard that is the same as here, you can take all the silver tickets inside, I just ask you to treat my son well and let him grow up safely." ”

After the prefect finished speaking, he had to kneel and kowtow for his son, who could not shout for his father.

"He will be an ordinary person in the future, and he will not know that he has a criminal father who commits suicide in fear of sin, let alone get involved in this position." Yelang took his things and took two steps back.

Although the prefect was unwilling to die, Yelang stood there and watched him, in order to leave a trace of blood for himself, he could only grit his teeth and take out the dagger in his boot and stab it into the heart.

"My son...... Ping'an ...... "The prefect fell in a pool of blood, and he died without looking away."

Yelang left the study with the evidence with a blank face, and soon took away an infant baby from the prefect's wife.

That night, the prefect's wife went crazy and slashed several concubines and concubines in the mansion with a sword, but the concubines and concubines in the mansion all committed suicide by taking poison.

At dawn, the housekeeper, who had always been loyal, set fire to the backyard of the government, and except for some people who escaped, no one from the prefect's family left alive.

In a mountain villa in the suburbs, Yelang carried his hands behind his back, looking at the direction of the thick smoke, and his brows furrowed.

"Girl, I forced my benefactor to death, is it right or wrong?" Yelang muttered to himself.
