A powerful cult stronghold, in front of Tiangang Hall, was like a fire in the wind, and it was quickly extinguished after a few struggles.

The "Yinglong" warship set sail again, which can be regarded as a full load in a sense.

Not everyone can be escorted back to Yujing. Prior to this, Tiangangtang had already made a classification, which was what Zhang Yuelu called screening.

Most of the guests of the manor are left to the local provincial government and the government to cooperate, and the provincial government does not interfere in specific affairs, but only plays the role of supervision and monitoring to prevent the situation of grasping the front foot and putting the back foot from happening. In such cases, the government generally convicted people ranging from imprisonment to hard labor to exile, as well as fines of varying amounts and stripped of their status as gentry.

At the beginning of the establishment of Daxuan, he took advantage of the general trend of sweeping the world to implement a new reform policy, mainly to spread the land into the mu.

The so-called apportionment into the mu is, to put it bluntly, to cancel the ding tax and merge it into the local tax. The tax is the poll tax, which is not levied according to the number of people, but according to the amount of land under the name, and those with less land pay less tax, and those with more land pay more tax, which is beneficial to the poor people with more people and less land, and is not conducive to the gentry and landlords with few people and few land.

The gentry naturally wanted to oppose it, but at that time, the Confucian sect and the Great Wei were defeated, and the focus of the Daomen and the Great Xuan nobles was no longer in the field, but in the sea trade.

Although the privileges of the gentry were not completely abolished, for example, the gentry still did not bear the burden of forced labor and did not pay taxes. However, it was expressly stipulated that it was limited to the gentry themselves, and the gentry could no longer shelter others, and his family still had to serve as a servant. As for not paying taxes, in the past, the Ding tax was not paid, but now the Ding tax has been abolished, and everyone no longer pays taxes, but the land tax still has to be paid.

If the gentry were deprived of their status, then all kinds of forced labor would follow, which was also a disguised punishment.

The cult demons in the manor, except for those who were killed on the spot, all the rest were escorted back to Yujing to accept the trial of Beichen Hall, and if there were Daomen disciples involved, Fengxian Hall would also be involved.

After all, Yujing is every inch of land, and only serious offenders are eligible to be imprisoned in Yujing City, and these people will be imprisoned on Yuzhu Peak, where it is cold and snowy, and they are very guilty.

Then there is the stolen money involved in the case, such a gold cave, just the Taiping money that has not been transferred is as high as more than 200,000 yuan.

You must know that in a major case in the south of the Yangtze River, a second-grade Taiyi Taoist priest died, hundreds of people were implicated, and the amount involved was only a few million Taiping money, and more than 200,000 Taiping money was already a large amount.

According to the instructions of Cihang Zhenren, all the stolen money was sealed, transported back to Yujing, and handed over to the Duzhitang for disposal. Part of the stolen money will be allocated to Tiangang Hall as a reward, which is the special subsidy that Qi Xuansu has also enjoyed. If there is no stolen money, it will be guaranteed by Du Zhitang.

The manor was handed over to the local government for disposal, and the local government would not destroy it, but would use it for other purposes, such as Puji Hall, Nursery Hall, or as a academy or warehouse.

Zhang Yuelu, as the head of this operation, has an independent study room of his own in "Yinglong".

Because it was a temporary study, there weren't many personal belongings, just piles of files.

These were all searched from the manor, mainly ledgers, because the raid of Tiangang Hall had no warning, which caught these cult demons off guard, and a roster of relevant personnel survived.

Zhang Yuelu was looking through the roster at this time, and found that there were many gentry and the like, and the whole family had joined the cult, which made her not sigh very much, what is the lack of people's hearts? That's it.

As for the people on these lists, they naturally sent a note to the local provincial government and arrested people according to the list, and not one of them could be let go.

In this kind of thing, there is no room for it.

Just then, there was a knock on the door.

Zhang Yuelu's gaze always stayed on the roster, and he didn't raise his head and said, "Come in." ”

Mu Yan walked in quickly, holding a lot of official documents in her hands, and stopped talking.

Naturally, there is also a "signal array" on "Yinglong", which is used for message communication.

"Say." Zhang Yuelu turned another page.

Only then did Mu Yan say: "There is news from the Wuxu Palace. I would like to ask our Tiangangtang to help solve the case. ”

"Solve the case? Isn't that an errand for Beichen Hall? Zhang Yuelu raised her head at this time, "We just want to exterminate the secret association, no matter what else, is there something someone asking for?" Want to use your equipment for private use? ”

Mu Yan hesitated for a moment and said, "They suspect that this matter is related to the secret association. ”

Zhang Yuelu reached out and took the paper in Mu Yan's hand and looked at it quickly.

"Wan Xiuwu...... The name is somewhat familiar, as if it has been heard somewhere. Zhang Yuelu frowned slightly.

Mu Yan said: "This person is a disciple of the real person of the Wuxu Palace, so the Wuxu Palace pays more attention to it, and it is said that Pan Cuiqing of the Little Palace personally came forward to deal with it." ”

If the master and apprentice, brother and sister, parents and children, brothers and sisters are in the same hall, a house, and a palace, and the status is one high and one low, then there will be a "size" saying, for example, in Tiangang Hall, Cihang Zhenren is a well-deserved real person in the hall, and Zhang Yuelu is privately called "Little Zhenren in Zhangtang" or "Little Zhangtang".

Although Zhang Yuelu doesn't like this statement, he has to admit that this statement can accurately and simply point out the specific status of this person.

Mu Yan only needs to say a "small palm palace", not to say anything about the eldest disciple of the real person in the palace, close to his henchmen, and the assistant of the Wuxu Palace, Zhang Yuelu understands Pan Cuiqing's status in the Wuxu Palace.

Zhang Yuelu also remembered that when the true people of the Quanzhen Dao visited Yunjin Mountain, she had a relationship with this person in the Shangqing Palace.

At that time, Qi Xuansu was still by her side, and she never thought that just a few days later, it would be heaven and man forever.

Thinking of this, Zhang Yuelu's mood was depressed, and he still held the official letter in his hand, and he didn't speak for a long time.

"Qingxiao?" Mu Yan said softly.

Zhang Yuelu came back to her senses, cleaned up her mood, and said in a slight mutter: "Whether it is Xiaozhang Palace or not, I just want to ask, is this matter really related to the secret association?" ”

The piece of paper in Zhang Yuelu's hand was just an official letter, very brief, and there were other official documents detailing the facts of the case.

"Judging from the statement of the Wuxu Palace, it should be related." Mu Yan took out another detailed case file that had been bound together.

Zhang Yuelu took it and quickly browsed it: "They suspect that they died at the hands of Feng Bo?" It's ridiculous. Not to mention that the time is not right at all, with Feng Bo's heavenly and human cultivation, where is it so troublesome to kill people. ”

Mu Yan said: "But except for the line of Fengbo, there is no clue." ”

Zhang Yuelu asked, "Have you checked Wan Xiuwu's interpersonal contacts and various relationships?" ”

"I've checked, Wan Xiuwu hasn't made any enemies recently." Mu Yan replied.

Zhang Yuelu said lightly: "It is not too late for a gentleman to take revenge. Don't just check the recent, check forward, when he was in the Vientiane Dao Palace, did he make enemies? ”

Mu Yan looked strange and did not speak.

As Zhang Yuelu's cronies, many official documents will be transferred to Zhang Yuelu's side after she has read them, which plays a screening role, and she has naturally read them for a long time.

Zhang Yuelu also happened to see the last page.

Wan Xiuwu does have an enemy in the Vientiane Dao Palace.

Name: Qi Xuansu. Table word Tianyuan.

Age: Twenty-five years old.

Grade: six-grade Taoist, enjoy the treatment of five-grade Taoist.

Origin: Vientiane Dao Palace.

Teacher: Qi Haoran. Remarks: The Taoist priest of the Four Grades of Wine has passed away unexpectedly.

Position: Deacon of the Shaking Light Division of Tiangang Hall, whereabouts unknown, suspected death.

Zhang Yuelu was silent for a long time before he said softly: "His heart can be punished." ”

This is the reason why Mu Yan is awkward and doesn't dare to say it directly, of course she knows that Qi Xuansu is a thorn in Zhang Yuelu's heart, so the whole of the Shaking Light Division has a tacit understanding, and it is easy not to mention Qi Xuansu.

During this period of time, Zhang Yuelu has almost not been idle for a moment, allowing herself to focus on big and small affairs, but there is not much abnormality.

But now let Zhang Yuelu go to check Qi Xuansu, isn't this a stab in Zhang Yuelu's heart?

Zhang Yuelu said slowly: "They ...... Didn't you know that Tianyuan was my friend? What do I want to express when I come to this case? See my jokes? Or is it not the drunkard's intention to drink? ”

Mu Yan hurriedly said: "Actually, they reported it to Tiangang Hall, and the reason why it was transferred to the deputy hall master was because of the meaning of the real person in charge of the hall." ”

"What does Master mean?" Zhang Yuelu was stunned for a moment, and then fell into deep thought.

Mu Yan didn't dare to say more.

After a long time, Zhang Yuelu said: "I know, after dealing with this matter, I will go to Wuxu Palace." ”
