At night, Yan Que sent a secret guard to investigate the situation of the rockery, and the two waited anxiously in the room.

After a while, the dark guard returned, with surprise and a slightly puzzled look on his face.

"How?"

"Lord Wang, my subordinates went down to check the place where Miss Ah Li said that there was a problem, and there was indeed a small stone protruding, and I tried to kick it with my foot, but the stone fell down and was covered in the soil, it should be a mechanism."

"But it stands to reason that if the stone falls and touches the mechanism, there should be a secret passage or the door of the secret room open, but the subordinates listened with bated breath for a long time, and there was no reaction!"

Even if he was experienced in banquets, he was stunned.

This situation was so unexpected that they did not expect.

Doubts are like a dark cloud that hangs over everyone's mind.

They really couldn't figure out what this thing that seemed to be a mechanism was for.

But there was no secret room, no entrance to the dark room, and they didn't know where to start.

Did you really dig up the rockery and the lake? There's no reason for that!

I can't say anything about digging someone's pond for no reason.

Even if Yan Que is the king of Huai, there is no such reason.

Yan Que turned his gaze to Chu Luoci.

Chu Luoci seemed to be still thinking about something, she still felt that something was wrong, according to Liang Wenhua's character, people must be under their noses to be the safest.

But he couldn't find the secret room and secret passage, and found a mechanism but no door opened......

In a trance, Chu Luoci suddenly felt a flash of inspiration-

"Lord, what if that mechanism really opened the door of the dark room or the secret passage, but the secret passage is not in the mansion?"

"What does that mean?"

Chu Luoci thought for a while and explained, "I like to read some strange things in the past few years, and I once read a book about a mechanism made by skilled craftsmen in the southwest, which can control doors and windows a few miles away. ”

"What do you mean......"

"Lord Wang, I still think that people are in this mansion, but maybe the entrance to the secret room is not in the mansion. The prince thinks about it, if it is really such an organ, once he finds that something is wrong, open the mechanism in the mansion, and someone can pick up the people who are detained in it from the outside, even if he is really discovered, by the time the secret room is excavated, the person has already been taken away, isn't it a perfect way? ”

"Besides, there is only one such agency left to find out where the secret passage is? It's really hard. This gave Liang Wenhua a time difference, allowing his detainees to escape as soon as they were discovered. ”

After listening to the banquet, his mood became heavier and heavier.

Chu Luoci was the same, "But we moved the mechanism twice today, if it is true that this mechanism controls a secret passage that I don't know where...... Liang Wenhua should have found out. ”

Rao is banquet has experienced many winds and waves over the years, and he was still surprised when he heard Liang Wenhua's exquisite design.

This Liang Wenhua is really cunning!

They are now completely in a dilemma!

People must be hiding in this mansion, maybe underground.

But dig it, there is no definite reason;

Don't dig it, maybe Liang Wenhua has already discovered that the secret passage has been moved, and he is already transferring the target.

What should I do?

"Lord Wang, we need a reason to find someone in the mansion, or even dig up this pool or rockery!"

Yan Que smiled bitterly, he didn't know, but ......

"Lord Wang, we have come to this point, what do you think we should spread out this matter directly?"

Yan Que was stunned: "What do you mean?" ”

Chu Luoci smiled faintly, "Since Old Madam Yang has told us everything about the past, and the old lady's younger brother is not afraid of life and death, then we might as well play a big game!" ”

"The old lady's younger brother is missing, and she also knows that the culprit is Liang Wenhua, so it's better to report to the official!"

"Reporter?"

"Yes!" Chu Luoci nodded, "Let Old Madam Yang go to the government to report the case as soon as possible, and the person who directly accuses him of kidnapping his younger brother is Liang Wenhua!" ”

"In this way, we have a reason to launch an investigation into Liang Wenhua's mansion."

"Then what if he sends people away......"

"Lord Wang, I bet that there must be a secret passage or secret room under the pool or rockery! As long as they dig it out and know where the secret room leads, even if they transfer people, they can follow the clues of the secret passage to investigate! But we haven't moved, and by the time he secretly moves people out of the city, it's really too late! ”

Yan Que nodded, although this method is a little risky, it is also the only way.

"And there is still a little ......" Chu Luo paused for a moment before continuing, "If we continue to deal with Liang Wenhua like this, I don't know when we will be able to find out about the things of the year, it is better to use the matter of Old Madam Yang to completely tear a hole." ”

"As long as we find a reason to control Liang Wenhua in our hands, whether it is torture, coercion or temptation, we can always ask the truth from his mouth about the things of the past, and then he will be a witness, and find out the person behind him, and the real truth of my father's disappearance can be revealed."

Yan Que nodded, he knew that Chu Luoci didn't want to take a secret move, but wanted to cross the bright road.

Chu Luoci is right, he is not without a time limit to stay in Jiangnan, if he continues to deal with Liang Wenhua like this, I don't know what year and month he will have to wait?

Yan Que gritted his teeth, and simply let it go according to what Chu Luoci said!

So he called the secret guard, "Tell the old lady about my plan and Miss Ah Li's plan, ask her if she is willing, and finally make a desperate bet!" ”

The secret guard nodded in response, and went to find Mrs. Yang, who lived in the suburbs, in the night.

Half an hour later, the Dark Guard returned with the night wind.

"Lord Wang! Mrs. Yang said she was willing to give it a try! Tomorrow morning, she will go to the Yamen to report to the official, and ask the prince to cooperate with her when the time comes, and search this mansion as soon as possible! ”

Chu Luoci and Yan Que glanced at each other, and all the results were waiting for tomorrow!

Early the next morning, before dawn, the drum of the yamen was sounded.

The official had just woken up, and his mind was not very clear, when he heard someone beating the drum of injustice, and he was straight and unlucky.

But when he walked to the drum, he saw that it was a gray-haired old woman who was beating the drum, and his jaw almost dropped.

He ran forward in a few steps, "Old man! This drum is not a random beating! If you have no grievances, you will be punished! ”

Old Madam Yang glanced at it lightly, "I know, the old woman does have grievances!" ”

At this time, the sky was bright, and the people who were doing business and buying vegetables had already come to the street, and when they saw a gray-haired old woman beating the drum, they all felt curious and gathered around.

And Mrs. Yang, seeing more and more people gathering, knew that the time had come!

She suddenly opened her mouth and shouted, "The women of the people want to be wronged!" The women of the people want to be wronged! ”

"The women want to sue Liang Wenhua, the envoy of Jiangnan Jiedu, embezzle my money and take away my brother!"

"My Yang family's property was swallowed, my brother's life and death are uncertain, and the women have great grievances! Please also ask the adults to redress the grievances of the people's women! ”

His voice was old, and he exerted all the strength of his body, and everyone around him could hear it clearly.

When she heard Liang Wenhua's name spit out of her mouth, the crowd exploded instantly!

"Yes, did I hear it wrong? The old lady was talking about ......"

"You heard it right! That's the one! Hush...... Let's go! It's a big deal to watch the excitement here, don't be affected when the time comes! ”

"Cut, cowardly, such a big bustle, don't look at it in vain! Besides, this old lady has lowered the drum of grievances, isn't there King Huai patrolling Jiangnan now? What is right and wrong, you will know in the first trial! ”

"You're crazy, aren't you? Whoever interrogates the interrogator, that is our Jiangnan official! ”

"If you want to go, you go by yourself, anyway, I'm going to watch the excitement here!"

……

There are still many people in this world who are not afraid of death and have the heart to gossip, and after a while, the gate of the yamen was surrounded by dense people.

Mrs. Yang was still crying out for grievances, and when the official saw that the situation was wrong, he crawled into the yamen to find the county master.

"Great, my lord is not good! Someone beats the drum and complains! ”

The county order had just gotten up, and he hadn't even woken up from sleep, so he waved his hand when he heard the words, "Then follow the rules!" ”

"No! This person is complaining about Lord Liang Wenhua! ”

"Whoever sues must follow the rules...... No, what do you say?! Sue who?! ”

The county commander was so frightened that his hat was crooked, "You tell me again?!" Someone beats the drum and complains about the grievances, saying who is being accused? ”

The officer's legs and stomach were trembling, "Sue ...... Sue Lord Liang Wenhua! Jie Du makes Liang Wenhua! ”

The county magistrate only felt that his eyes were dark, "Why didn't you say it earlier?" Hurry up and stop people! Bring people in and solve them privately! Don't let anyone else see you! ”

"This is to ask Lord Liang what he means first, and then decide what to do?"

The mourner's face was, "Master, it's late!" It's full of people outside the yamen! Everybody heard! The pestle is there! ”

The county order is almost unstable, is his career coming to an end today?

He forced himself to calm down!

"Who is the one who beats the drum?"

"It's the old lady of the Yang family!"

"Which Yang family?"

"It's the Yang family, the head of the wealthy businessmen a few years ago!"

Finished! Finished!

The county order is not only black in front of the eyes at this time, but two wars!

The official said in a low voice, "Do you want to go to Lord Liang's mansion?" ”

"Yes! Absolutely! ”

The county order instructed: "Send someone to tell Lord Liang first, there is still ......"

He hesitated, did King Huai live in Lord Liang's mansion?

If so......

The county commander gritted his teeth: "This matter must be known to the prince!" ”

The official didn't know why he had to let King Huai know, but he knew that his master was still very smart sometimes, so he immediately agreed.

first took the old lady Yang who beat the drum and voiced her grievances to the court, and then asked her colleagues to go to the Liang Mansion to report the news.

It's just that the colleague who went to report the news soon came back with a strange face.

"Why did you come back so soon?"

"Master, King Huai has arrived at the Yamen with a group of soldiers and horses!"

"What do you say? What about Lord Liang? ”

The officer's face turned pale, and the prince said, "He lives in Lord Liang's mansion, watching Lord Liang's sleeves are breezy, he is a good official for the country and the people, I don't believe that Lord Liang will do such a thing, he promised in front of the people that he must ask Lord Liang to come over and cooperate with the thorough investigation of this matter, and return Lord Liang to a clean slate!" ”

The official cried with a sad face, "Master, what should I do?" Is our yamen really going to judge Lord Liang? I, I don't want to die yet! ”

The county magistrate's face was also pale, "Do you think I want to die?" Don't worry, if this thing can't be done, I'll be the one who dies first! It's not your turn! ”

The more critical the moment, the more lucid his mind became, and his brain was spinning rapidly.

He was not an official in Jiangnan before, and he was only transferred here to serve as a county magistrate five years ago.

For Jiangnan officials, they have always been able to avoid each other, neither offending nor integrating.

He vaguely knew some of the things back then, and he also knew that if this thing was poked out, the world would be in chaos!

How could he ...... Why are you so unlucky?!

Things that have been silent for decades were poked out by the prince when he was in office!

Should he stand with Lord Liang, or should he ......

No! No way!

It's too late to be alone, he has to make a choice!
