Liu Zhengde happened to be at home when he heard a shocking report that a group of soldiers had broken into the mansion, and Liu Zhengde was very shocked.

He stood up abruptly and asked, "Do you know who led the way?" ”

The servant replied: "Master, we haven't met, we don't know each other." ”

Before Liu Zhengde could give any instructions, Gu Yu had already led people into the hall of the main courtyard,

Liu Zhengde was furious at this time, "Who are you, who let you break in." This is the Thorn Mansion, rush to my house to spread wild, be careful that I let you not eat and walk around. ”

Gu Yu said: "We are the subordinates of King Jing, Liu Zhengde, what crime did you commit yourself, don't you have a little count in your heart?" ”

As soon as Gu Yu waved his hand, two soldiers stepped forward and grabbed Liu Zhengde.

Liu Zhengde was already shocked, and when he heard that it was the person who was Jing Wangye, he was even more shocked, "Can Jing Wangye arrest people casually?" Can King Jing casually frame a good person? I am wronged, I am not convinced. ”

said that Liu Zhengde was about to break free, but the soldiers who came this time were not ordinary soldiers, they were all soldiers who had undergone strict training, and they were all skilled, so Liu Zhengde had no chance to escape at all.

After a while, the chickens flew and the dogs jumped, and the people in Liu Zhengde's family were all controlled.

Xiao Yilin did not go to see Liu Zhengde as soon as possible, but took Jingyi to Liu Zhengde's study first.

Xiao Yilin said: "Jingyan, Gu Yulai and I didn't find any problems last time, you can take a look." ”

As soon as Jing Yi entered the study, he noticed the bookshelves in the study, the secret room in Zhao Kui's study was behind the bookshelf, and if there was a secret room in Liu Zhengde's study, it was probably behind the bookshelf.

Jing Yi looked around and found that there was an offering table next to the bookshelf, and a small Buddha statue was enshrined on the table. There are a lot of offerings such as melons, fruits, and snacks on the table.

This is a study, not a Buddhist hall, for a Buddha statue how to look awkward.

Jing Yi came to the offering table, looked at the Buddha statue, and then moved the Buddha statue.

This move has not moved, and Jing Yi has a spectrum in his heart. She turned the Buddha statue vigorously, and the bookshelf next to it immediately popped up, revealing a gap.

Xiao Yilin's eyes lit up when he saw this scene, and he immediately stepped forward to check, and pushed the bookshelf open without much effort, revealing a wooden door behind the bookshelf.

Jing Yi saw that the wooden door was also locked with a big lock, the same as the Zhao family.

Jing Yi stepped forward and took out the silver hairpin and opened the lock in three or two clicks. As the wooden door opened, a secret room was revealed behind the wooden door.

Jing Yi wondered if the ancients liked to build secret rooms in the study?

"This brother-in-law and brother-in-law have similar hobbies, and they both like to build a secret room in the study."

But the secret room had disappointed them, and there was nothing in it except a few precious jades.

Xiao Yilin looked at the almost empty secret room and frowned and said: "It is recorded in the ledger that Liu Zhengde was greedy for ink the most, and almost half of the disaster relief funds allocated by the imperial court for the relief of the victims went into his pocket, and he must have other places to hide."

If he can't find Liu Zhengde's greedy property, then he can only be charged with conniving at his brother-in-law's corruption. This crime does not condemn him to death at all. And he'll fight back with that.

Other officials shared the spoils and embezzled ink through Zhao Kui, and Liu Zhengde could not be found at all. If Liu Zhengde pushes all the blame on Zhao Kui, saying that it is Zhao Kui's forged account book, then we will become very passive. We must find his greedy possessions. ”

Jing Yi said: "Zhao Kui's crime must be nailed on the board, try him first, and try to open a breakthrough from him." ”

Zhao Kui's house was taken by Feng Zhi with people. Jing Yi told him how to open the secret room in the study, so Feng Zhi found the secret room smoothly and counted all the treasures inside.

And Zhao Kui, of course, was dismissed and sent to prison.

At the same time, the same thing was going through in the mansions of many officials in the Jiangzhou capital. The people in Jiangzhou Mansion felt that something was wrong, and they all stayed at home and didn't dare to come out, for fear that something would happen.

The lieutenants of the Jiangzhou Mansion army were also controlled, and Xiao Yilin's men directly took over the few troops in Jiangzhou Prefecture.

Xiao Yilin ordered Gu Yu and the others to hurry up and interrogate Zhao Kui, and be sure to get the hiding place of Liu Zhengde's greedy belongings from his mouth.

Through interrogation, Zhao Kui brought out several more officials, but Zhao Kui insisted that his brother-in-law was not involved and knew nothing about his actions.

Zhao Kui wants to take all the sins himself. Because he knew that only if his brother-in-law did not fall, he could hope to live.

Liu Zhengde also bit the bullet and said that he didn't know what his brother-in-law did, and insisted that he was fair and honest.

This time, more than half of the officials in Jiangzhou Mansion were imprisoned, and there was a lot of noise in Jiangzhou City. The movement is so big, we must find Liu Zhengde's hidden property, otherwise they will really not end well.

Jing Yi also felt that Liu Zhengde must have hidden his money elsewhere.

Liu Tingshi and his family were all imprisoned, and Xiao Yilin also requisitioned the Assassin's Mansion and let people clean up the main courtyard as a temporary office and residence.

Xiao Yilin's people searched all over the Liu family, but they did not find a place where Liu Zhengde hid his belongings.

Gu Yu came to report the situation and said: "This Liu Zhengde can really hide things, the entire Liu Mansion has been searched by us and we haven't found anything, could it be that the things are not in the Liu Mansion?" ”

Xiao Yilin shook his head and said: "With Liu Zhengde's cautious temperament, it is unlikely that he will put such a large amount of property elsewhere, it should be in Liu's mansion." ”

Jing Yi also felt that Xiao Yilin was right.

Jingyi also lives in the main courtyard, and she usually wanders around Liu's mansion, trying to find the place where Liu Zhengde hides his belongings.

She saw that the rockery in the yard was very distinctive, but she felt that it was a bit incongruous to build such a rockery in the main courtyard.

Jingyi's heart moved, and she looked around the rockery.

After careful inspection, she found that one of the rockeries was a little smooth, and the color was a little different from other places. If you don't look closely, you really can't find it.

Jing Yi touched it, and then tried to see if he could move the stone. Jing Yi worked so hard that the stone really moved. Suddenly, I heard a sound at the rockery, and a stone in the rockery moved, revealing a hole at the bottom, and there were steps extending down from the hole.

Jing Yi shouted a little excitedly: "Brother Xiao, come quickly." ”

Xiao Yilin and Gu Yu all came to the courtyard when they heard the movement, and they all saw the hole leaking from the rockery.

Gu Yu was surprised, "This must be where Liu Zhengde hides things, this old thief is really cunning." Lord, I'll go down and have a look first. ”

Feng Zhi said, "I'll go down with you." ”

Xiao Yilin nodded, "Be careful when you go down, be careful if there is a mechanism." ”

Gu Yu took the lead and walked down the steps, followed by Feng Zhi.
