Yuan Rui didn't need to think about it to know that his behavior had been discovered by others again, and now he went to check Yuan Du's previous news, would there be anyone else except his son.

No matter how bad Yuan Rui is, he is also a person who has experienced two lives, and he thinks very clearly, his actions have been targeted by others from the beginning, and these people must have some unexplained intentions.

On the other hand, it shows that his father's death is not so simple, and he is really the same as himself, he was poisoned and killed!

Without waiting for Yuan Rui to see Xu Bing the next day, Qi Feng hurried to the county office.

"County Zun, something happened," Qi Feng usually called Yuan Rui by his official name in public.

"What's wrong?" Yuan Rui was stunned, he had just settled down, and it seemed that Qi Feng was not a small matter.

"The Miao people of Hutouling Zhushi Village clashed again with the Han people of Yang Village under the mountain, and the Miao people killed more than 20 innocent people in Yang Village and injured hundreds of people."

When Qi Feng received the report, he was also shocked, it was rare to have such a big death or injury at once!

Hutouling and Huanglongling are separated by the valley bottom of three or four miles wide, and the two mountains are like door gods stuck with the connection between Qiyang and Shaozhou, so the location of Jipo Village and Zhushi Village is very important.

This is another reason why the Han and Miao often clash, often harassing the Han people passing through the mountains, sometimes even buying and selling.

"When did this happen, how did it suddenly start a conflict." Yuan Rui was also surprised.

"The news reported that it happened two days earlier, and now the Han people in the vicinity have begun to gather again!"

"According to the people in the township, it is a fight for water, the Miao people cut off the water in the paddy fields, the Han people are unwilling, go to the village to reason, and fight with each other, the Miao people do not know how to become more ferocious this time, the past is sticks and fists, this time the knives, guns and hunting forks have been taken out, where can the Han people fight, and the casualties are heavy."

"It has something to do with last time, Qi Feng, you immediately take people to the township, stabilize the situation first, you must not do it again, the Han people can't beat it, and the people are injured in the end!" Yuan Rui knew that he couldn't be in a hurry about this matter, and it was difficult for Miao people to entangle.

Yuan Rui immediately found someone to call Hu Xiancheng and Liu Zhushu to the lobby, and asked Qi Feng to say it again.

"County Zun, this matter must be reported to the state capital as soon as possible, as for whether it is played in the court, it is up to them to decide, but the county must first find a way to calm down, at least not let the situation expand further!"

Now that Hu Xiancheng already knows Yuan Rui's background, where do he dare to be a little careful, do his official duties well, and send this master away as soon as possible is the most correct.

"Okay, you arrange this matter, Qiyang, you have been staying for many years, think of a way to calm down quickly, I don't care who I find, come to me directly if you have any difficulties."

After listening to Yuan Rui's arrangement, several people went to do things on their own, while Yuan Rui sat at the table and pondered for a long time.

Near noon, Xu Yong came to him again, saying that Xu Bing was much better and wanted to see Yuan Rui.

Yuan Rui saw Xu Bing again, and finally put his mind at ease, his appearance is much better now, Xu Bing, who has been sorted out, has returned to his original appearance, but his face is still a little pale, but his spirit is good, this is the benefit of being strong.

"Childe, I've been investigating for nearly a month, not finally revealing a flaw, there should be a chance to find out the truth, but now I just found a little clue, Yuan Tong is not sentenced to death, this is for sure, there is a Lang Zhong suspected that it was poisoned!"

"There is another clue, among the beggars, I found a person who was working in the Yuezhou Mansion at that time, he turned out to be working under Lord Yuan, doing the work of collecting grain from the fields, he heard that Lord Yuan had a quarrel with the Yuezhou Governor!"

"Governor of Yuezhou, it shouldn't, he won't do this!"

Yuan Rui shook his head, he checked, the prefect of Yuezhou at that time was Su Xuemin, a member of the Su family of the Su family of Longzhou Martial Arts, who had just filled the vacancy and became a waiter in the court.

The martial arts Su clan first began to flourish in the Han Dynasty, in the Northern and Southern Dynasties to the Sui and Tang Dynasties, the Su clan represented by Su Sui was prominent for a while, and a total of seven people in five generations worshiped the prime minister, stepping into the ranks of wealthy families.

From knowing that his father may not have died of illness, Yuan Rui was quietly looking for information, and Su Xuemin, the prefect of Yuezhou at that time, entered his field of vision for the first time, and there was no more direct interest than this.

But when he checked the information, the most direct reaction was that nine times out of ten it was not this person.

Su Xuemin is a pure literati, two subjects earlier than his father, first in the capital as a scholar, and then went down to Jingzhou as a school inspector, and later transferred to the school, and then transferred to the prefect of Yuezhou.

For the prefect, it is indeed much easier to restrict the general sentence, and unless it is absolutely necessary, how can it be possible to directly kill people and kill people.

Yuan Rui also has a little judgment, Su Xuemin is not the kind of official who wants to stay in the local government, if you want to talk about pure interests, it is not what a scholar like Su Xuemin really wants.

Just like his father-in-law, Scholar Meng, he will directly embezzle and accept bribes in the local area, and do some headless things for some gold and silver property!

Therefore, even if Yuan Rui was suspicious of a local magnate like Governor Song, he didn't believe that a passer-by like Su Xuemin was a villain.

"You just want to find out the news, I told you to be careful in case of trouble, don't startle the snake, how can you still be injured?" Yuan Rui still couldn't figure out Xu Bing's serious injury.

"Childe, I blame myself for this matter, I was very careful to find out the news, and it was okay at first, and it didn't attract much attention, but when I heard that there was an insider who was sick and had no money for medical treatment, and could only beg on the street for a living, I wanted to ask about the situation. But when I got inside, I realized that they were a big gang, the Yuezhou Huazi Gang, not just in if they wanted to, and out when they wanted to. ”

"I've only been in for a few days and found out that there is a problem with the gang! They are not only begging, but also do a lot of hurtful things, abducting and selling children and women, kidnapping and extortion, and even killing people and stealing goods. ”

"I know, I can't control it all at once, and I'm going to find an opportunity to come out when I hear the news. But by chance, the old catcher told me that Yuan Tongju had conducted a strict investigation of several cases involving the Hanako Gang more than ten years ago, and one of the gang leaders was arrested and imprisoned. ”

"Later, I found an opportunity, took a gadget and said I picked it up, and gave it to a small boss, thinking if I could ask for some news, it was normal at first, but that day suddenly changed."

Xu Bing is a very cautious person, his identity is actually suitable, he is already old-looking, and he has done a little tricking, and he looks like an old man in his fifties and sixties.

He is also very experienced in finding out information, and he will not let the other party feel his intentions at all, and often get what he wants in the most inconspicuous small details.

At first, everything went well, there were no flaws, whether he was begging or stealing, he could often bring back a little good thing that surprised the leader, which made people feel that this old guy was still a little useful.

So he was also very polite to him, and often gave him some leftover bones, meat, etc., which was considered to be a little sweet.

A few days ago, it was also unlucky, when he was stealing something, he happened to be discovered by a person watching the excitement on the side, but that person was a stunned young man.

Regardless of the ground to beat him, he couldn't fight back, and was finally picked up by a few companions who were responding on the side, and he had already been beaten several times.

Although these few blows did not hurt him much, but it was broken, and another big boss who came to see the injury found something strange, and ordinary people were beaten a few times by strong men, either broken bones or broken legs, he was not seriously injured, and that person was suspicious.

At night, I called several strong men directly from the outside to come over, and they beat him violently, and they couldn't carry it to death, if they were really killed, it would be over. But when he started it, he found out that this was also a trap.

Killing an old beggar is not a problem at all, so this is an unsolvable puzzle.

A few masters in the gang waited outside for Xu Bing to show his flaws, and this time the fight started, several masters directly surrounded him, even if Xu Bing could fight again, he still couldn't resist in the face of the siege of these masters.

was slashed in the body and shot in the leg, that is, he had the experience of escaping on the battlefield, and Xu Bing found an opportunity to escape back to Qiyang.

"What do you mean, they don't know what you really mean, it's an accident!" Yuan Rui asked after listening.

"Childe, I think so, they don't know what I want to do. It was only when I suddenly found out that I might have martial arts on me, and I was afraid that I was from the government, so I set a trap. ”

Xu Bing thought about it, but still felt that he shouldn't have revealed any flaws.

"Have you ever thought about what would happen if that strong man who was fighting unevenly was also arranged by them?"

"Hmm..... This ......" Xu Bing choked suddenly, and he looked at Yuan Rui in disbelief.

"Is it possible!" Yuan Rui asked with a smile, "If you are in the little boss, then you will be suspected, originally people have set a trap to test you, to see who you are, is it possible!" ”

Xu Bing was directly silent, this ring is one after another, he really didn't expect that there would be such a powerful character!

"Childe, is there really such a calculating person? I'm just a beggar! ”

"You haven't known how powerful our opponent is, I guess they not only know your identity, but they may also know that I'm investigating these things, maybe, someone has already arrived in Qiyang! No, no, it's people who have already arrived in Qiyang! ”

"Regardless of whether Fang Wentong told me his suspicions, or whether I knew about this or not, others have already prepared, I am even more convinced that this matter has nothing to do with Su Xuemin, the prefect, and must be someone like the head snake."

"Childe, can the Earth Snake have such a big power? I look at the skills of several of them, and they are not much worse than me! ”

"If that's the case, if it's not good, there are still some big forces behind it." Yuan Rui thought about it for a while, and he really couldn't be arbitrary.
