After the pharmacist knew that the capital had begun to liquidate Zhang Juzheng's subordinates, her mind was flexible and she thought of the big storm that would rise in various places, so she hurriedly rushed back to her hometown to deal with it. Because the pharmacist delivered babies to large families, he learned some secrets that outsiders did not know. He heard his wife say that the second wife of the county official in his hometown was Zhang Juzheng's grandson, so the county official married the second lady at a low level. The county officials are good to the medicine merchants, and the medicine merchants are even more attached to this adult to do business. In order not to implicate the county officials, in order for the pharmacists to get more support from the county officials, and for the sake of the business of the pharmacists, the pharmacists decided to rush home and tell the county officials the news in person as soon as possible. The county magistrate will definitely make a wise decision, dissociate himself from the Zhang Juzheng case, and even report the second wife's mother's family, and the county magistrate will keep his status and even be promoted, so that the business of the pharmaceutical merchant will be more stable.

After Qin Tai heard the news, he immediately prepared a way to deal with it. First, let Qiu Xiaoqiu go to the yamen to inquire about more detailed information, and it must be absolutely true. Second, arrange for his wife Zhan Xiaoxiao to send some of her inconspicuous relatives to various places in batches for temporary refuge, so as not to be implicated by Qin Tai. Third, send Huang Jin and others to Tan Lun's hometown with their children. Qin Tai once wrote to Tan Lun to ask for it, and Tan Lun also promised that if something happened to Qin Tai's family, he could privately take over part of Qin Tai's family. Nominally, Tan Lun can say to the outside world that these people are his distant relatives, so as not to let Qin Tai's family be wiped out by the little emperor. Tan Lun half-truthfully promised Qin Tai in the letter to take care of their daughter Ruyi as his own daughter. Fourth, Qin Tai persuaded his uncle Qiu Min to take his aunt to live in his grandfather's old house temporarily, so as not to be taken away with him in Qin Tai's house. Qiu Min finally agreed to leave, but Qiu Min not only left by himself, but also took Qin Tai's second son Jixiang away. Qiu Min promised Qin Tai that in the future, when the rumors passed, he would not only bring Jixiang back to reunite with his family, but also definitely find a way to let Jixiang and Feng Bao meet. Even if Feng Bao dies at that time, he will let Jixiang kowtow in front of Feng Bao's grave to confess his relatives.

sent away Qiu Min's family, and then sent Huang Jin and Ruyi to Tan Lun's hometown, Qin Tai's family only had Qin Tai's old parents and Qin Tai's husband and wife, as well as Qin Tai's eldest son Xiao Ping'an. Soon after Qiu Xiaoqiu sent a report for Qin Tai, he was also driven out of home by Qin Tai, mainly because he was worried that Qiu Xiaoqiu would be affected by himself. Qin Tai's father even sold half of his family's land and gave it to his tenants, and the family's cash was either hidden in secret or exchanged for real goods. Zhan Xiaoxiao privately bought a small house in his own name, and the name on the deed is Zhan Xiaoxiao's father. In this way, even if Qin Tai's family is raided, the family will have a place to live, after all, Zhanxiao's father is not a member of the Qin family, and this property cannot be confiscated. Zhan Xiaoxiao thought that the court and the little emperor did not necessarily have to kill Qin Tai, at most they would dismiss Qin Tai. In the future, Qin Tai can have a place to live, and he can be a teacher in this house, at least he doesn't have to worry about his future life.

A few days later, when Qin Tai's family was impatient, the opinions were dealt with. The county official led several officials who were not of high rank to Qin Tai's house, and these people were the so-called Beijing officials at first glance. They first surrounded the Qin Tai family, and then began to swagger and liquidate the Qin Tai family's property. Qin Tai's family did not make trouble, nor did they stop or ask the other party to come up with the holy decree of the confiscation. Qin Tai was very clear about the little emperor's intentions, and the little emperor not only wanted to torture himself, but also used this opportunity to classify himself into Zhang Juzheng's henchmen. As long as Qin Tai or Zhan Xiaoxiao dare to make trouble, I believe that Qin Tai's family will be characterized as rebellious in the near future, and they can kill the rebellious court and the army controlled by the court. Zhan Xiaoxiao may be able to kill him, but the charges of Qin Tai's family will be implemented. Qin Taiming knew this result, so he had to come up with a positive and cooperative attitude, so that these people could not have seizures.

Qin Tai deliberately ignored the correspondence between him and Zhang Juzheng, and left the evidence of his break with Zhang Juzheng in the study. When Qin Tai persuaded Zhang Juzheng many times to no avail, there was already a break in the letter. Later, after Qin Tai and Zhang Juzheng officially met in the capital, when they broke up completely, Zhang Juzheng tore off a corner of a robe on his body, which is the meaning of "cutting the robe and breaking the righteousness". On behalf of Zhang Juzheng and Qin Tai, they will be like passers-by from now on, and they will definitely not have anything to do with each other. Qin Tai's original intention was to leave it as a memorial for the two of them, representing that he once had such a friend. Now the role is to prove that he has broken with Zhang Juzheng. In fact, the little emperor had already known the news of Qin Tai and Zhang Juzheng's breakup, but the little emperor was unwilling to let Qin Tai go like this.

The person who came copied a copy of Qin Tai's property and took all the relevant letters with him. Qin Tai's family ordered them to live in their own house and not go out, and there were people from the yamen guarding the door, and the daily meals were delivered by the yamen on time. Except that Qin Tai's family has no freedom, there are no other changes for the time being. But Qin Tai and his wife Zhan Xiaoxiao knew that the little emperor would not let him go easily. Even if there is no matter of Zhang Juzheng, even if Qin Tai does not help Empress Wang and the little emperor in the matter of the queen, with the temper of the little emperor, he will not let go of Qin Tai and his wife.

The waiting time passed slowly, and it took a long time to wait for the final decision. The person who came brought two holy decrees, the first one was issued by the little emperor, and Qin Tai was ordered to remove all his positions and fame, and Qin Tai was not allowed to claim to be an official. From then on, Qin Tai couldn't even be counted as a scholar, and it was impossible for him to have the opportunity to be an official again. The second holy decree was issued by the little emperor together with the Empress Dowager Li and others, which means that although Qin Tai is a close confidant of Zhang Juzheng, he has contributed to the court and the royal family in Qin Tai, and now he has a merit to offset it. The confiscation of Qin Tai's family's property and shops was taken as a warning to warn Qin Tai not to try to interfere with the decisions of the imperial court.

Although Qin Tai has already left the officialdom, there is still a necessary handover. People from the Criminal Department and the Ministry of Officials came to hand over and were responsible for taking away the relevant documents and former files. In the past, Qin Tai's identity as an official could be retained or borrowed, but now Qin Tai's identity is not allowed to be retained or borrowed. In order to prevent Qin Tai from deliberately altering the file and causing unnecessary trouble in the future, the people from the Criminal Department will check it one by one before officially taking over. In fact, Qin Tai had already prepared these, and the people from the Criminal Department only needed to take over according to the procedure. Now Qin Tai doesn't even want fame, how can he care about these external things that don't belong to him in the first place.

However, it seems that the people who came were deliberate, perhaps with the instructions of the higher-level leaders, they not only wanted to take away all the documents and files, but also took away Qin Tai's notes and years of experience. These are things that Qin Tai compiled based on cases over the years, and they belong to him personally, and they don't have to be handed in. However, the people from the criminal department said that these were related to the confidentiality and content of the case, and they must take the notes and experience with them. This is Qin Tai's life's work, Qin Tai has been reminiscing and sorting out over the years, trying to compile a case-solving experience that is no less than "Clearing Grievances". Not to make a name for himself, but to have more reference and guidance when solving cases in the future. The little emperor and the others all knew what this thing meant to Qin Tai, and confiscating this thing was tantamount to taking Qin Tai's life. They wanted to torture or disgust Qin Tai in this way, and even wanted to force Qin Tai to death.

As Qin Tai's wife and assistant for many years, Zhan Xiaoxiao knew the importance of these notes to Qin Tai, and of course she did not allow anyone to do so. Not only was the person who came not afraid of Zhan Xiaoxiao, but also regarded Zhan Xiaoxiao as an ordinary woman who made trouble, and reprimanded Qin Tai for not taking care of his wife while continuing his work. Qin Tai immediately took action to grab his wife Zhan Xiaoxiao, and Zhan Xiaoxiao immediately came to his senses. The first reason why someone dared to do this was because he represented that the imperial court and the criminal department were not afraid of Zhan Xiaoxiao, a folk woman, and second, someone may have instructed him to do so, so he dared to talk to Zhan Xiaoxiao, and the third possibility is that the person who came did not know the origin of Zhan Xiaoxiao. The other party used this "stunned youth" who had just joined the work to cause Qin Tai and his wife to resist, and it was best to let Zhan Xiaoxiao call someone or make a big deal about it, so that the court could have the opportunity to clean up Qin Tai and his wife. It is very likely that the person from this criminal department is a poor "substitute for the dead", a "wronged boss" who knows nothing.
