Chapter 48: Framed

Zhou Qiuya remained calm and analyzed seriously: "Under Liu Lei's nose, he can steal 100,000 stone of grain unknowingly, and only a few forces in the capital city can do it!" ”

"Five families!"

Chen Xiao said coldly, don't think about it, it's easy to guess.

The five major families have a huge influence in the capital, and the intricate relationships are extremely extensive, and only they have the ability and courage.

"I just don't know which one it is," He Changwen's eyes narrowed slightly,

"Or which ones?"

Chu Qingyan had a gloomy face, she knew that the opponent had made a move, and this shot was a killing move!

Liu Lei is difficult to protect.

There are five major families in the capital: the Lu family, the Lin family, the Chen family, the Wang family, and the Liu family.

Who is in the fog?

Zhou Qiuya said in a heavy tone:

"The only way now is to find the stolen 100,000 stone of grain, as well as the evidence that the mastermind behind the scenes framed Liu Lei, so that we can have a chance to exonerate Liu Lei from the death penalty."

But it's too difficult, Zhou Qiuya showed a pessimistic tone, the enemy must be fully prepared for exposing the theft on the day when the army received the food, they have only just arrived in the capital for a month, and the foundation is not yet stable, how difficult it is to find evidence.

And after this blow, the people who had worked so hard to recruit in the previous month were all in vain, and Chu Qingyan's prestige dropped greatly.

The crowd bowed their heads and fell silent.

Bowing her head and pondering, Liao Siting's eyes lit up, as if she had thought of something, and hurriedly raised her head and said:

"This matter may not have a turnaround, we have a small force, but we can find a big force to help us find it!"

"Big power?"

"Which force wants to be involved?" Chen Xiao shook his head and smiled bitterly.

Fan Min's eyes were filled with tears, she didn't have any thoughts now, her mind was full of Liu Lei's miserable appearance in prison.

"Yes, and I'm sure there's a family that is definitely not a murderer!"

Liao Siting's affirmative tone made everyone's eyes focus on her.

In the face of everyone's inquiries, Liao Siting said in a relaxed tone:

"Lin family!"

"Everyone, don't forget, Bo Lin Changhai, the head of the government, grain and grass is one of his main responsibilities, and if the granary is stolen, he will also be implicated, because it is impossible for him to deal with us with this matter.

We can also win over the Lin family, because Lin Changhai doesn't want to be implicated and wants to solve the case.

The Lin family is huge, deeply rooted in the capital, and has many ears, eyes, and connections, so they should be able to find clues. ”

Hearing Liao Siting's analysis, everyone's eyes became brighter and brighter, and they found a way to break the situation.

He Changwen followed Liao Siting's train of thought, thought of it again, and the corners of his mouth rose: "I think, we will soon know who made a move on us!"

Using the granary theft case to frame Liu Lei, it is impossible for the enemy not to know that he will offend the Lin family, but they still did it, so it is very likely that they are dealing with us at the same time, they are also dealing with the Lin family!

The Lin family knows better who of the other four families has the ability to do this and who is hostile to the Lin family. ”

Everyone breathed a sigh of relief when they heard this, finding the enemy is equivalent to finding the direction, and finding the right direction will make it easy to find a solution.

"We can also find King Chu."

"Stealing 100,000 stone of grain is no longer an ordinary thing, this is simply a provocation to the imperial court, a provocation to the king of Chu, whether it is for the face of the court or for himself, the king of Chu will definitely find out."

Chen Xiao also thought of this, and said with a smile:

"It's a killer move for us, but it's also a huge hidden danger for them, and once we can find the evidence, they're dead!"

After everyone's analysis, they felt that they had found a way to break the situation, their expressions became relaxed, and they looked at Chu Qingyan, waiting for her order.

However, when they looked at Chu Qingyan, they found that Chu Qingyan had been frowning.

"What you just analyzed makes sense, but why do I always feel that something is wrong, they spend so much effort and such a high risk just to get rid of Liu Lei?"

Hearing Chu Qingyan's words, everyone's hearts froze.

Risking a granary felony, offending the King of Chu, and offending the Lin family, just to solve a little Liu Lei?

Is it really possible?

"Oh no, Second Miss!"

Qingyan, who had not been seen at this time, rushed in quickly, her face full of anxiety.

"What's wrong?"

When Chu Qingyan saw Qingyan's appearance, he had a bad premonition in his heart.

"Second Miss, now ...... Now the capital city knows that the Xicheng granary has lost 100,000 stone of grain, and everyone is talking about it.

The people behind it have struck again, and now all kinds of rumors have spread throughout the capital city that have ruined our reputation.

They said...... They said......"

Qingyan ran in quickly, and after stopping, she was a little out of breath, and after taking a few deep breaths, she said a series of things:

"They said that it was the mountain bandits we took in who colluded with Liu Lei to steal 100,000 stone of grain!

In the past, the fact that we had suppressed bandits all the way to collect money was also revealed, and now it is rumored that we went to suppress the bandits because we took a fancy to the money of the bandits, and we took in all the mountain bandits.

Saying that there had never been a granary theft in the capital city before, and now there was a theft of the granary as soon as we came.

There are many of us, and Liu Lei is a grain guard in Xicheng, so it is very easy to steal the granary together.

So it was rumored that the mountain bandits we took in were not clean with their hands and feet, and they stole 100,000 stone of grain from the Xicheng granary.

As soon as the news of the mountain bandits stealing the granary came out, in the absence of any evidence, most of the people now believe that the mountain bandits we took in colluded with Liu Lei to steal the granary.

Now someone has fanned a group of people to go to the government office, and asked the patrolmen to come and check our residence, thinking that the stolen 100,000 stone grain is hidden in our camp. ”

Rub!

Everyone stood up, their faces extremely embarrassed.

Commander Yang, who had not spoken, also said with a gloomy face:

"Not only do they make the people disgusted with us, but they also want to cut off our access to the capital city to protect the army.

The guards of the capital city instinctively hated the mountain bandits, and now some people have charged us with stealing the granary, and if we can't solve the case of the theft of the granary, we can't prove our innocence.

The people will only blindly follow the herd, and they will only want to believe what they hear.

The rumors from outside are enough to make all the Protector soldiers feel bad for us, and it is impossible for us to meddle inside the Protector anymore. ”

Zhou Qiuya's face turned pale: "Once we can't get conclusive evidence, the gossip in the city will become true after a long time, and when the time comes, everyone will have a bad feeling towards us, and we will not be able to move an inch in the capital!" ”

"Commander Yang, you immediately return to the camp to guard now, and immediately check all places, there must be no mistakes!"

Chu Qingyan said extremely solemnly, if the mastermind behind the scenes smuggled a part of the grain with the granary logo smuggled into his cavalry and the camp where the mountain bandits were held.

That's lore!
