"But the emperor's eldest grandson is not good, if his charity hall is only to help some widows and loneliness, it is nothing more than to win over the hearts of some rural villagers, as long as we are here, it will not matter, but his free reading is really shaking the foundation of our Lujiang scholars......"

Zhou Du's mood is a little heavy, this emperor's eldest grandson seems to be soft, but every move after coming to Lujiang is like a sharp knife slashing at the wealthy family of Lujiang, fast and ruthless.

Zhou Zhao was silent for a long time.

"I've seen it myself, their free reading, just teaching some ordinary arithmetic and recognizing some commonly used words, are some extremely superficial content, and they can't make any climate ......"

Zhou Du knew that his Ah Weng would not not be able to see the harm behind this free reading, but he had lost his sharpness in his heart, and he couldn't listen to his own opinions at all, so he simply closed his mouth and silently closed his eyes to recuperate.

The atmosphere in the carriage suddenly fell silent.

When he was about to enter the house, Zhou Zhao suddenly opened his old eyes, glanced at his young son, and admonished him seriously.

"I know you've been in secret contact with those people, starting today, give up with them and get out as soon as possible - some industries, if it's inconvenient, you can just give up ......"

When Zhou Du heard this, his heart tightened, and he suddenly looked up at his own Ah Weng, and saw that Zhou Zhao's eyes were slightly closed and his face was calm, so he relaxed a little, and said a little reluctantly.

"No—"

Zhou Zhao glanced at him and nodded slightly.

This youngest son of his own family has always been smart, and he should know the stakes here.

The matter of Lujiang County ended in an unexpected way.

The wealthy families of Lujiang County showed unprecedented cooperation and contributed money and efforts to help His Royal Highness the Emperor Grandson open a charity hall in Lujiang County, implement free education, and help widows and loneliness. And Zhao Ying, the emperor's eldest grandson, recruited nearly 100 young talents from Lujiang County in Lujiang County in one go, and included them in his general's mansion to serve as personal guards.

And the one-eyed stone man also proved to be a conspiracy with ulterior motives.

His Royal Highness the Emperor Eldest Sun personally signed the sea fishing document to track down the main messenger behind the one-eyed stone man case, and those who can provide effective clues can be rewarded with 10,000 yuan, 100 acres of fertile land, and can be exempted from three years of forced labor at home. Those who can be captured alive will be promoted to the third level!

As soon as the news came out, there was a quick response.

Some fishermen living near Mizusawa reported that before the strange incident, someone had purchased three dilapidated fishing boats nearby, and at midnight that night, they heard a very obvious sound of water flowing in Mizusawa.

At that time, I just thought that there were big fish in Mizusawa, so I didn't dare to go forward to take a closer look, and the next day I saw that Mizusawa had turned into a depression!

Zhao Ying asked people to confirm with the nearby villagers repeatedly, and after confirming the news, he immediately asked people to send the reward.

A large box of Qin Banliang, plus the title deed of one hundred acres of fertile land, was directly delivered to the villager's home, which immediately aroused the envy of everyone.

They didn't expect that just a few fluttering words would be exchanged for such a rich reward, and they immediately regretted that they didn't go to His Royal Highness the Emperor Eldest Sun to receive the reward first.

10,000 yuan and 100 acres of fertile land may not matter to the wealthy families, but for these people who make a living from fishing and whose families are too poor to open the pot, it is enough to change the fate of the family.

This solid reward soon had a chain reaction.

On the second day after Zhao Ying cashed in the reward, the shopkeeper of a small inn personally went to the county guard mansion to report the situation, saying that two days before the one-eyed stone man case, a group of businessmen from other places had stayed in their guest house.

He looked very similar to what the fisherman had described.

This is definitely extremely important news. Zhao Ying put down the work in his hand, personally asked several people in the guest house, and asked them one by one, and quickly determined the authenticity of the news.

After learning the news, Zhao Ying immediately called the county guard Wu Rui and began to investigate along this clue.

From the soldiers on duty at the city gate, to the guests who stayed at the inn that day, and even the vendors who set up stalls near the inn, they were all within the scope of the investigation. This is thanks to Daqin's extremely strict household registration and identity management system.

If you really have to track it down with an iron heart, you will soon be able to determine the identity of the other party.

Another real reward will be sent.

Those people of Lujiang County, who were still a little hesitant and worried that they would attract revenge from the gangsters, really couldn't hold it back. Not to mention 10,000 yuan, those 100 acres of fertile land can really be used as the foundation for future generations!

The county guards the government, and for a while, there was an endless stream of people who came to report the situation.

Of course, the news of most of them is useless at all, and it has nothing to do with the case, but Zhao Ying instructed the officials who received it to be patient and not to criticize the people.

Under this relaxed policy, the enthusiasm of the people of Lujiang County has increased.

Who knows if the person you suspect is right, if it is, then it will not be rich!

Under this kind of attention that everyone is a soldier, everyone is staring wide-eyed, and looking for treasures, not to mention a few mice hiding in the shadows, even if it is Shang Ying back then, they can't escape the investigation of the government.

This is also too long since the original case, if it was at that time, it is estimated that people will not be able to leave Lujiang County, and they will have to be arrested red-handed by the people of Lujiang.

But even so, it also frightened many people.

Outside the city of Lujiang County.

An inconspicuous carriage was leaving along the official road without hurrying. The man driving the car is in a strong body, if Zhou Zhao's father and son are here, they will definitely be able to recognize that this car is the entourage of Mr. Tang they just received a few days ago.

It wasn't until he left the county town far away, there were no pedestrians around, and the man driving the carriage couldn't help but glance back at the old man sitting in the car.

"Mr. Tang, that incident has nothing to do with us in the first place, why should we leave in such a hurry......"

The old man in the carriage had a flat voice.

"If a gentleman does not stand under a dangerous wall, Lujiang County has become a place of right and wrong, and it is not appropriate to stay for a long ......time."

The man simply closed his mouth, waved the whip in his hand, and threw a loud whip, as if to vent the depression in his heart.

This pair of masters and servants ran well, but there were also those who couldn't run, in this city, almost three times a day, regretting the straight to the brain, how did they lose their hearts and go crazy in the first place, and they were involved in this kind of headless thing.

South of the city, Yu family.

The head of the Yu family, holding a roll of bamboo slips, sat in his study with a gloomy face, although his eyes were staring at the bamboo slips, his mind was no longer on the bamboo slips, and his eyes were raised from time to time to look out of the window.

It wasn't until dusk that the familiar sound of footsteps sounded outside the courtyard. He couldn't help but feel nervous in his heart, and looked out of the door a little nervously, until he saw Yu Zhong, the internal manager who he relied on as his confidant, bending over and walking briskly, and then he secretly breathed a sigh of relief.

"The head of the Qiqi family, the end of the matter has been dealt with, and all the people who have come into contact with it have already closed their mouths."

When the head of the Yu family heard this, he couldn't help but breathe a long sigh of relief, and looked at Yu Zhong with a little more appreciation.

"Yes, you've done a great job!"

After the head of the Yu family finished speaking, the conversation changed.

"You've worked hard for the past two days, I've already asked people to prepare a carriage and horse salute, and you should go to the country grange to avoid it first, and rest for a while by the way......"

Yu Zhong suddenly showed a grateful look on his face, and gave a deep bow to the head of the Yu family.

"No! The villain thanks the head of the family for his compassion......"

Yu Xun, the head of the Yu family, waited until Yu Zhong left, and then he commanded lightly to a middle-aged man with a sturdy figure behind him.

"Handle it cleanly, don't leave the end of the hand ......"

"No!"

The man said in a deep voice, turned to leave, and stopped.

"What about his family, do you want to deal with it together......

Yu Xun shook his head.

"Yu Zhong is a loyal servant of our Yu family, and he can't chill the hearts of the people below - after Yu Zhong leaves, his name will be entered into the family tree, and he will be buried in the honor of the family, and his wife and children will also be raised by the family, and the three sons under his name can choose a clever one to do things in the house......"

"The head of the family is kind!"

The man turned around and bowed deeply to Yu Xun, and then turned away.

……

The matter of the one-eyed stone man is far away from now, even if it is these days, some extremely critical information has been collected, but the thief has already left Luyang County, even if it is Zhao Ying, there is nothing to do.

After listening to Zhang Lianghe's shocked report, his eyes couldn't help but flash, and he nodded slightly.

"Have you investigated the families that those people have been in contact with?"

Bowed in shock.

"Back to His Royal Highness, it has been basically investigated, it seems to be the Yu family in the south of the city, some people reflected, as if they saw those merchants, who had landed on the Yu family's grange, and soon after the group of merchants left, a childless stonemason on the Yu family's grange fell ill and died violently......"

Zhao Ying nodded, lifted the brush, and gently circled a name on the list handed over by Zhang Liang, and then shook his hand and handed it to the shocked man who was standing down.

"Go ahead, but I want an irrefutable proof!"

"No!"

Without saying a word, he turned around and strode away.

As far as Surprise is concerned, what they are best at is not to spy on the world and gather intelligence, but to "find" the evidence His Majesty wants!

Soon, the 3,000 elite of the forbidden army stationed on the military academy in the city were all called.

Under the leadership of the frightened, he rushed to the south of the city and roared away.

This move suddenly caused a lot of discussion among the people in the city, and many people who were staring at the movements of Zhao Ying and others were even tighter, and completely lost their former calmness.

"Hurry up and find out where the emperor's eldest grandson has gone!"

……

Seongnam Yu family.

I don't know why, since I got up in the morning, Yu Xun felt that his eyelids were jumping today, and he was faintly uneasy in his heart, and he couldn't even read a book.

He simply threw down the bamboo slip in his hand, paced back and forth in the study with his hands behind his back, reviewed the whole thing little by little in his heart, and was sure that all the hands and feet had been dealt with properly, leaving no handles, so he secretly breathed a sigh of relief.

As long as he is not caught by the emperor's eldest grandson, even if he has doubts, he can't help the Yu family.

After all, the Yu family is not a small family, it has a history of hundreds of years in Lujiang County, and it has been operated for several generations, and it has long been ingrained, and it is not an idler's family.

Although he comforted himself like this in his heart, the faint sense of uneasiness still made him a little unable to let go.

Immediately let people call from the parents and children.

"You go and bring some gifts, and go to the county guard mansion for me to meet His Royal Highness the Emperor Eldest Sun, and just say that our Yu family is willing to add another 100,000 yuan to fund the charity hall and help the people of Lujiang......"

The eldest son of the Yu family, looking at his father, who was a little restless, couldn't help frowning slightly, but he still honestly bowed down to receive the order, however, before he went out, he felt that the ground shook, and then he heard the rumbling sound of horses' hooves outside, and couldn't help but stop in shock.

"Tell me, what's going on out there, what's going on—"

Ignoring the faux pas, he jumped into the courtyard and grabbed a house slave who had come in a hurry.

The slave had already lost his master, and he stopped in a panic.

"Young Master Qiyu, the big thing is not good, there are suddenly a lot of cavalry outside, and they have surrounded our Yu family......"

When the eldest son of the Yu family heard this, he couldn't help but feel a sigh in his heart, in the winter, cold sweat instantly wet the jacket.

Yu Xun, who was following him, also heard the words of the house slave at this time, and suddenly his heart sank, his eyes were dark, and he fell to the ground with his head hanging, he barely stood up straight and took a deep breath.

"Come with me—"

After speaking, it was like cheering himself up, and he added a sentence.

"Our Yu family is a family of goodness, virtuous for generations, and a famous family in Lujiang County, even if it is His Royal Highness the eldest grandson, he can't be humiliated ......"

However, before he could walk out of the courtyard, he had already broken in with a team of elite forbidden troops.

"Captain Shock, why did you lead troops without authorization and break into my Yu family, don't you really think that our Yu family is easy to bully?"

Yu Xun had a dark face, looking at the surprise who broke in, and his voice was a little gloomy.

Shocked to see this, he arched his hand with a serious expression. It's just that his natural smiling face is fierce, so his serious face does not look serious in the eyes of others, but has a bit of sarcasm, which looks extremely hateful.

"Don't dare, I was just ordered to track down the case of the one-eyed stone man, and I found out about your mansion......"

At this he smiled habitually again.

"The head of the Yu family is kind and charitable, and he doesn't think he will do such a rebellious thing......"

Yu Xun nodded again and again.

"Yes, yes, yes, our Yu family is a family of goodness, and we have no disrespect for Daqin, and I also ask the general to ...... it."

He smiled in surprise.

"The last general also hopes that this matter has nothing to do with your mansion, but I Daqin attaches the most importance to the law, since someone has reported it, I naturally have to come and see it in person, so I can give your Yu family an innocent ......."

Speaking of this, he also smiled at the head of the Yu family quite friendly, and then, without waiting for Yu Xun to react, he waved his hand and commanded the elite of the forbidden army behind him.

"Search for me—"

"You, you—if you can't find evidence this time, my Yu family will definitely go to His Highness to ask for justice!"

Yu Xun couldn't help but be furious, with an angry look on his face, but his heart was relieved.

It seems that His Royal Highness the Emperor Eldest Sun, although he is suspicious of his own family, really has no clear evidence in his hands, otherwise he would have to bring someone to search, and he could directly forcibly take people.

I have applied to the platform to merge accounts, and it is estimated that the author's name will be replaced by the old number in a few days. Remember the title and don't bother with the author :)
