The sky was blue waiting for the smoke and rain, and the smoke of the cooking stove was waiting for the farmers to come home.

It seems that this day is no different from any previous day, and the people of the Gu clan who are resting at sunrise and sunset have gradually forgotten the previous conflict in the past half a month - after all, as the ancestral house has become more and more repaired, the people in that house have also begun to live in seclusion, except for the occasional household handyman who goes to the street to buy things, the figure of the scholar in green shirt has not appeared for many days.

This also made the Gu clan breathe a sigh of relief, the details of the court trial ordinary clansmen do not know much, only know that Gu Huai seems to be doing things for a certain vassal king, and he has some relationships, so he suppressed this matter, under the propaganda of the patriarch Gu Rong and the third prince, the people in the clan naturally respect Gu Huai, but Gu Huai's unfilial and mean image is also becoming more and more vivid in the hearts of the clansmen, and many clansmen will take a sip from afar when they pass by that alley.

The sky was getting dark, and the gloomy weather could not see the sun slanting to the west, but the old peasants knew when the weather would be dark in May, and slowly went home along the ditches between the fields with hoes, and only then did they reach the entrance of the town, and saw a large number of officials and horses rushing into Qing'an Town.

When they entered the town gate, they saw that Gu Rong, the patriarch of the Gu clan, was tied up and taken away by Wuhuada, and the elderly third prince did not escape, but was put on the prisoner car, and the people of the Gu clan gathered and watched the officials in Gu Rong's house with solemn faces.

Most people still like to watch dramas, especially this kind of brainless farce, every time a servant moves something out of Gu Rong's house, such as the account book, such as the piles of grain in the warehouse, the crowd will let out some low cries of the servants, but as several officials tried to move the three rockeries in the pool in the backyard of Gu Rong's mansion and found that they couldn't move them, they could only draw, and someone finally found that something was wrong.

One pond and three mountains, the emperor's system, three big stones stand in the pool, it looks quite tasteful at night, but with a few shouts of the officials, everyone knows that this is the urging charm of the Gu Rong family who "dreams of being the emperor".

Since ancient times, the biggest taboo of emperors is that officials have other thoughts, when the people's dreams arise, put three stones in the pond to raise some flowers and plants in ordinary times, no one cares, but once it is checked, it will be really fatal.

After checking Gu Rong's house, he immediately went to Gu Er's house, with the help of Gu San's family in Gu Er's house, he was pressed to the ground before he could react, counting the four generations of the third grandfather's ancestors and grandchildren, all the prohibited items in the house were confiscated, none of the over-controlled decorative paintings fell, and the hollowed-out wall tiles were all stripped off, and Gu Er, who hurried home, thought that he had met a thief, and gave a few officials a blow to the head and knocked him unconscious.

I heard that the people who came to Tianfu this time were mainly to check two things, one was greedy for public food and one was a big crime, so frightened that they quickly set aside the crowd and went home and began to burn the account book, burning and burning and feeling that it was not safe enough, so they simply turned out all the words in the house, what family letters and yellow calendars were all thrown into the fire, there was an old daughter-in-law of the clan who was illiterate, and I heard my father-in-law say that all the words had to be burned, otherwise a catastrophe would come, and I was so frightened that I took off the New Year's pictures that had fallen some color and threw them into the stove, I didn't let go of the textbooks that the children used in private school.

No one paid attention to these ridiculous things she did, Gu Rong's family was caught, and the men from Ying Tianfu pulled a few carts of evidence, tied up a group of people and left Qing'an Town with their front feet, and the Qing'an County Ya came again, probably in the spirit of checking and filling in the gaps will not be held accountable, the anxious Qing'an County Order took the officials to copy Gu Rong's house that had just been turned over again, this time it was more ruthless than before, and he almost turned over the land to find out if there was any public grain and silver that Gu Rong had hidden, but he didn't let go of any places where he could put thingsThe walls collapsed on both sides.

It's okay now, it's obviously night, but the whole Qing'an Town is brightly lit, everyone is busy, the people of the Gu family are busy with the fire, but everyone who is not clean on weekdays is destroying the evidence, the black smoke and miasma of the fire are blackening people's faces, and the people with foreign surnames in the town were originally busy watching the play, but I don't know which people in Qing'an County are crazy, and the Gu family is not counted after the investigation, so they simply check it one by one along the street, for fear that there will be such a thing that goes beyond the norm, and for a while Qing'an Town seems to be engaged in a rectification movement, and there is a burst of chickens and dogs.

After burning the account book, an old man who followed Gu Rong to the countryside to collect grain on weekdays just sat down and took a breath, and swept the gold painting on the eaves of his house, and was so frightened that he jumped up from the bed all of a sudden.

This jump startled the daughter-in-law who was at a loss, and before she could ask the old man what was wrong, she heard the old man cry like a pig:

"How can you forget this? Those shed walls are all demolished! Those gold-painted stickers on the top are trespassers! There is also the wall in the backyard, carved with green bricks, we ordinary people don't build it! Hurry up and chisel the ladder! What? You idiot, you can do with a hoe! Hurry up and plane! ”

Probably finally remembered the fear of the strict investigation of the imperial court a few years ago, the old man walked around the house, and when he saw anything, he thought it was the trespass in the example of "The Great Message", and for a while he only felt that his eyes were black, and he couldn't wait to check all the grass, wood, bricks and tiles in the house.

The matter is not over, after Gu Rong was arrested, the dazed Gu clan people came to the door, the reason why Gu Rong was able to become this patriarch, in addition to his seniority, the help of the clansmen on weekdays is also an indispensable reason, but now that Gu Rong has happened, no one knows if it will implicate him, and if he can't find Gu Rong, he can only come to these clan elders.

"Third uncle, there won't really be an accident this time, right?"

"It's scary, Uncle San, the pigsty in my house has been demolished, and they say that there is a problem with the bricks I use, isn't that the kiln at the mouth of the town burned? What could be the problem? ”

"What about the patriarch? The three princes were all arrested, and they said that the patriarch was going to rebel and become emperor... Isn't that? When did our surname Gu have this kind of thought? ”

"It's over, it's over! This kind of big crime, the drama says that it is to punish the nine clans! Aren't we also one of the nine clans of the patriarch? ”

As soon as these words came out, the faces of the clansmen became more and more panicked, and the old man's face was not good-looking, but the clansmen who would only run to Gu Rong to flatter him on weekdays now regarded him as the backbone, but his vanity was satisfied: "This... Probably not, the government is not blind, and there are so many people in Qing'an Town, dare to say that we want to rebel, and no one believes it, right? It's not clear what the situation is right now, but we have to find someone who can support it first! ”

He looked at a young junior: "San'er, you go to Jinling, go to Taixue to find Gu Nian, isn't he very related in Jinling City?" Tell him that if he doesn't care anymore, his father will be gone, and our family will suffer! ”
