The matter of Taihe County is not complicated, under the investigation of Xuan Jiwei, in just one day, it was found that the so-called mutual aid grain burning case has nothing to do with the demon dime, and it has nothing to do with the existence of half-demons and spirit beasts, it is purely a farce directed and acted by several Taihe County officials led by the county commander Li Yongcheng in order to privately swallow mutual aid grain.

And Lu Chen also found out that the county order of Taihe County misappropriated official food, and the record of collecting taxes from the local people even though the imperial court clearly agreed to Taihe County's application for tax exemption.

There are countless kinds of cats.

With all kinds of ironclad evidence in hand, Lu Chen did not hesitate at all, and directly ordered the seizure of the family property of all the officials involved.

What is surprising is that Li Yongcheng's home was found in the home of tens of thousands of taels of silver, a number of treasures and famous paintings, and although the adjutants of other counties and chief bookkeepers were not as good as Li Yongcheng, they also seized a lot of money and treasures of unknown origin.

It can be seen that they do have jaw-dropping abilities in some aspects.

In just two days, the situation in the small Taihe County has changed, and Li Yongcheng and others, who once covered the sky with one hand, were all taken down by Xuanjiwei and escorted to the Beijing Division, and at the same time, Lu Chen also found some interesting letters in their mansion.

After the situation on the official side was resolved, Lu Chen began to wrap up.

After all, the matter of mutual aid money has already come out, and after all, it is necessary to give an explanation to the people who have paid the mutual aid food and the people who should have enjoyed the mutual aid food.

So, the next day, a brand-new announcement was posted on the public notice board of Taihe County.

After waiting for two days in anxiety, the people learned the contents of the announcement through various means, and their originally nervous expressions quickly relaxed.

Because in the announcement, there was no decree to overturn the list of supplementary towns formulated by Li Yongcheng.

Not only that, Lu Chen also made the decision himself, returned all the mutual aid food donated by the ordinary people before, and repaid the ten stone grain promised by Li Yongcheng in the name of the government in full to the people who became the public food of Taihe County.

After learning all this, almost all the people of Taihe County cheered.

They didn't expect that the sky in Taihe County had changed, and the former county lord had also fallen, and the government not only did not take advantage of the situation to turn around and deny people, but also understood their small people so much, and returned their life-saving food.

At this moment, almost all the people in Taihe County remembered the name of Lu Chen, a big man who suddenly appeared.

No one knows how many immortal tablets Lu Chen will add to the people after this day.

As for Li Yongcheng and others?

them!

The people of Taihe County got the benefits, moved to the villages near Montenegro and got the mutual aid food they deserved, and although the big families were unhappy that Lu Chen did not return the food, as long as this matter passed peacefully, a little food should be given to Huazi.

And when the news in the announcement reached the families, everything was completely settled, and the heads of the families finally breathed a sigh of relief.

Li Zhiping once again convened everyone to discuss how to deal with things in the future.

After all the matters were finalized, he suddenly sighed with emotion.

"Why is the head of the Li family sighing?"

One of the housekeepers asked curiously.

Li Zhiping shook his head, his eyes lowered, and his face showed obvious regret.

"It's nothing, just a little emotional, I think back then, when Old Man Lin was in power, what a beautiful scenery the Lin family was, but I didn't expect an infighting to come down, and in just one year, it was completely collapsed, so that Lin Yi and other reckless people who didn't know what to do became the head of the family, and directly dragged the Lin family into the abyss."

At this, he sighed again.

"There is no Lin family in Taihe County, and I don't know if Old Man Lin will wake up and be angry with Lin Yi's unfilial grandson, it's really... Sad and lamentable......"

Hearing him suddenly mention the Lin family, which had become one of the 800 households in Taihe County, everyone couldn't help but look at each other, and Zhao Dafu's originally kind smile froze inexplicably on his face.

"Well, who's to say it isn't."

A family head who was very close to the Li family reacted and directly echoed: "The Lin family... It's really a pity that the family is unlucky, the first-class family is ruined by infighting and no successor......"

What a pity!

Many people secretly complained in their hearts, but they still echoed Li Zhiping's words on the surface.

"The head of the Li family has a unique vision, and he can see at a glance that Lin Yi is useless."

"At the beginning, the head of the Li family persuaded Lin Yi bitterly and asked him to focus on the overall situation, but this guy was so willful that he did not hesitate to gamble on the entire Lin family, now it's okay, now the Lin family has become a food town, and there is no chance to rise, which can be described as Lin Yi's own evil consequences."

"The head of the Li family decisively severed the relationship with the Lin family, there is no doubt that it is a wise decision, and the noble daughter also knows the general situation, and will no longer be involved with Lin Yi, so as not to suffer Lin Yi in the future, ask the Li family for help, and let the family be in a dilemma.......

“……”

Everyone kept touting, and Li Zhiping couldn't help but squint his eyes.

Then he looked at Zhao Dafu and said meaningfully: "When the interruption continues, you will suffer from its chaos, Zhao Yuanwai, Zai Xia is not a long-tongued woman, but you and I have known each other for many years, and I really don't want to see your family business that you have worked hard for half a lifetime to get is harmed by a waste." ”

Hearing this, the corners of Zhao Dafu's eyes twitched.

Immediately afterwards, he couldn't respond, Li Zhiping said again: "Having said that, the last time I visited with a dog, Xiong'er was full of praise for Gui Qianjin, and kept thinking about when to visit your mansion again, and sat down with Gui Qianjin to talk about it, in order to advance together, Zhao Yuanwai, you see this matter......

As soon as these words came out, everyone was stunned for a moment.

After reacting, Zhao Dafu's face stiffened slightly.

Then he coughed lightly, smiled quite unnaturally, and continued: "I'm sorry, Master Li, there have been a lot of things in Xia recently, and I may not have time to receive them. ”

Hearing this, a strange glint suddenly flashed in the eyes of the Li family master.

"That's right...... Well, since Zhao Yuan is not idle, then this matter will be stopped for the time being, and we will talk about it later. ”

Zhao Dafu sighed silently in his heart.

After finding out Zhao Dafu's attitude, Li Zhiping personally sent everyone out of the Li Mansion, and finally quietly watched Zhao Dafu's luxury carriage gradually drift away, until it completely disappeared from sight, he turned around inexplicably and returned to the mansion.

On the other side, after Zhao Dafu returned home, he immediately called his only daughter Zhao Qian, and asked with a serious face: "Qian'er, my father wants to ask you a question, and you answer honestly as your father." ”

Such a serious formation made Zhao Qian suddenly restrain her usual brutality and willfulness, and nodded obediently.

"Daddy, you ask."

Zhao Dafu took a deep breath, and then asked in a deep voice: "Ask you for your father, if your father asks you to leave the Lin family, that kid ......?"

"Impossible!"

Before Zhao Dafu finished asking, Zhao Qian's face changed, and she said loudly: "My daughter will not marry Brother Yi in this life!" ”

Zhao Dafu frowned.

"What if the father has to be like this?"

Zhao Qian said without hesitation: "Then the daughter will leave here and go to find Brother Yi, where Brother Yi goes, the daughter will go." ”

Hearing these incomparably firm words, Zhao Dafu couldn't help but sigh heavily.

"Alas, the family is unfortunate......"

As he spoke, he rubbed his temples with a little headache, at this moment, he regretted that he didn't take good care of his daughter when she was young, so that he gave the little thief of the Lin family a chance to take advantage of it.

Zhao Qian stepped forward, stretched out her little hand, and helped him pinch his shoulder.

"Dad, is something going on?"

Feel the thoughtfulness of the little padded jacket.

Zhao Dafu told his daughter about today's incident with a helpless face.

After listening to her father's story, Zhao Qian's face suddenly changed.

Zhao Dafu's meaning is obvious, the Lin family is gone, and Lin Yi is not qualified to sit on an equal footing with them, and he was kicked out of the ranks of the wealthy families in Taihe County.

Among them, naturally also includes Lin Yi's own relationship ties.

For example, herself.

Zhao Qian immediately stated her attitude that she would never abandon Lin Yi, and even wanted to go to Lin's house immediately.

Seeing that his stupid daughter was so resolute, Zhao Dafu's face was bitter.

After thinking about it again and again, he still reluctantly chose to respect his daughter's choice, and pasted the family business that he had struggled for half his life in.

Not only did he take his daughter to visit the old man of the Lin family, in the name of visiting, he gave all kinds of generous gifts to the Lin family, which has now completely declined, which can be called a charcoal in the snow, but also handed over some of the shops under his name directly to his daughter to take care of, the intention behind it is simply self-evident.

Lin Yi was so moved that he proposed to the Zhao family on the spot.

Although Zhao Dafu was a little unhappy, he still pinched his nose and admitted it.

He is such a daughter, a hundred years later, this family business will be handed over to his daughter after all, and although Lin Yi is a little more ambitious, he still appreciates his personality and conduct, and he is not a big traitor, if he doesn't care about the gains and losses of the family's interests, it is not a good match.

It's a big deal to help more in the future.

Taihe County is very small, and the Zhao family is the most wealthy family in the county, and the news of the engagement between Lin Yi and the daughter of the Zhao family soon spread throughout the family.

"Heh......"

The lobby of the Li family.

Li Zhiping sneered and withdrew his gaze from the old butler in front of him.

"I really didn't expect that such a shrewd person as Zhao Dafu would make such a stupid choice, this guy is really old......"

In the face of the ridicule of the head of the house, the old housekeeper didn't even dare to speak out.

And when the wealthy family of Taihe County sneered at the Zhao family and the Lin family's move to marry, Lu Chen, who had cleaned up the Taihe County Government from top to bottom, finally took a basket of charcoal and embarked on the return journey back to Beijing.
