The reef decided to drag people into the water, and immediately went into action.

Of course, he couldn't contact the commander of the Shanxi Metropolitan Division next door, but he knew that Geng Lao County had relatives who had a relationship with the other party.

Taking advantage of the friendship between his cousin Xie Wenzai and Geng Lao County Ling and Zhuang Tongzhi, Haijiao naturally won the opportunity to "help his cousin give New Year's gifts to his friends", and visited Zhuang Shitong's house with gifts. Very "coincidentally", Geng Lao County Commander also came to his cousin's house as a guest that day.

So Haijiao, as a junior and student of the two friends, accompanied the two elders to chat and talk, intentionally or unintentionally mentioned the rumors of Pingyang Mansion that he had heard, especially about the deeds of the Tongzhi who had an in-law relationship with the Sun family, and sighed: "Could it be that Pingyang Mansion can only endure it?" Can't find anyone who can cure him? ”

These words made Zhuang Tongzhi and Geng Lao County Commander couldn't help but sigh.

Especially the former, the officials of the Chang'an Mansion have encountered something in Pingyang Mansion, and they have already sent someone to send a letter back to Chang'an to report. The news that Haitang heard from Xie Wenzai was originally inquired about by the latter from Zhuang Tongzhi, and Zhuang Tongzhi himself naturally knew more about the evil deeds of Pingyang Mansion Tongzhi than the Hai family brothers and sisters, and his mood was heavier.

Helplessly, the two places are hundreds of miles apart, as the same acquaintance of Chang'an Mansion, he can't help the same acquaintance of Pingyang Mansion at all, and he knows that the situation of his friends in the court is already difficult, and he doesn't plan to let them face the Sun family again, so he will naturally feel uncomfortable.

However, Geng Lao's county order was reminded by Haijiao's words: "Pingyang Mansion is not really without a way to deal with the Sun family's henchmen. I remember that the commander of Zhao Du of the Shanxi Metropolitan Division is a person from Pingyang Mansion, right? Pingyang Mansion Tongzhi relied on the in-law relationship of the Sun family, and so harmed his hometown fathers and elders, could it be that the commander of Zhao Du didn't see it? ”

Zhuang Tongzhi remembered this person at this time: "General Zhao...... I haven't seen him in years, and I don't know if he recognizes me as an old friend......"

Haijiao was stunned, but he didn't expect the "relatives" in Geng Lao's county order to "have relatives and have a relationship with Zhao Du's commander", which is Zhuang Shi and Zhuang Tongzhi! In this way, it is no wonder that Geng Lao County Commander would say in his previous life that his relationship with Zhao Du's commander was very weak, and he didn't dare to expect that he, a former official of Chang'an, could escape the embarrassment of Zhao Du's commander. At that time, Zhuang Shitong had been dead for nearly two years, and no matter how deep the friendship was, it would be weakened, not to mention that Geng Lao County Ling was only his cousin, how could he expect Zhao Zhuo to remember the friendship of his late cousin?

However, now that Zhuang Shitong is still alive, even if his friendship with Zhao Zhuo is weak, he can still write a letter to tell the other party a message.

Thinking of this, Haijiao suddenly cheered up.

Zhuang Shitong recalled his past experience of studying in Datong Mansion and with Zhao Zhuo, a young player stationed there. Later, Zhao Zhuo entered Beijing with his father and became a junior general under the command of the old Yingchuan Hou, and the two broke off contact until Zhuang Shitong entered Beijing to take the exam, and the two met again. Zhao Zhuo got married, the eldest son held a full moon and a 100-day banquet, and Zhuang Shitong was a guest. But when Zhuang Shitong was implicated because of Wu Guozhang, the master of the test, his career was not smooth, and he was sent to the local area, the contact between the two was greatly reduced. However, Zhuang Shitong was able to avoid being dismissed and exiled, and Zhao Zhuo, an old friend, also helped a little. The friendship between the two is still there, but because they are too far apart and the correspondence is inconvenient, they have cut off contact.

After Zhuang Shitong was transferred to Chang'an Mansion, he once sent a letter to this friend, when Zhao Zhuo was out of the house, it was his wife who replied to the letter on his behalf, and the tone of the letter was cold. After that, Zhuang Shitong never wrote to Zhao Zhuo again.

However, Zhuang Shitong's son's family is now in Datong, and Zhao Zhuo's second son is also stationed in Datong, and the two families have not completely broken off contact. According to the letter received by Zhuang Shitong, his son also went to the promotion banquet of Zhao Zhuo's second son, and chatted with each other face-to-face, which can be said to have continued the friendship of his father.

Zhuang Shitong discussed with Geng Lao County Commander whether he should write a letter to Zhao Zhuo to remind him that there was a corrupt official in his hometown in Pingyang Mansion, but the local officials and people were hindered by the Sun family, and there was nothing they could do about this corrupt official?

Haijiao was listening, and from time to time he interjected two sentences to support Zhuang Shitong to write a letter to Zhao Zhuo. But he didn't believe in his heart that Zhao Zhuo and his family valued this friendship at all. Not to mention Zhao Zhuo's wife's cold reply to Zhuang Shitong's letter, just in the previous life, Zhuang Shitong's granddaughter was killed in Datong, and Zhao Zhuo's second son was stationed there, how could he have helped? Geng Lao County's daughter and grandson suffered all kinds of grievances in Datong's husband's house, and when Geng Lao's county order begged for help, he didn't see Zhao Zhuo's second son stretch out his hand once!

Zhuang Shitong had only been dead for two years at the time, and his friendship with Zhao Zhuo had disappeared without a trace, so it was okay not to mention such friendship.

Since Zhao Zhuo was indifferent to Zhuang Shi and this old friend, Haijiao wanted to drag him into the water even more. In the final analysis, this is also for the sake of his hometown of Binh Duong. Whether it is Haijiao or Zhuang Shitong, it is a good intention, but what bad intentions can there be?

As for Zhao Zhuo, after learning about it, was he afraid of the Sun family and turned a blind eye to the evil deeds of Pingyang Mansion, or did he risk offending the Sun family to eradicate an evil for his hometown fathers? That's his choice.

Zhuang Shitong wrote a letter to Zhao Zhuo on the spot.

He mentioned that he was working in Chang'an Mansion, and he happened to encounter a lawsuit, and there were witnesses living in Pingyang Mansion, and when he sent officials to the local area to pick up witnesses, he heard local news, and some officials of Pingyang Mansion cried and begged Chang'an Mansion to lend a helping hand, which made him and his boss feel very embarrassed.

He can understand the difficulties of the officials of Pingyang Mansion, but the Chang'an Mansion is not the Zhou family, and the Zhou family is not the head of the Shanxi Metropolitan Division, so there is no reason to meddle in Shanxi's government affairs. Obviously, this kind of thing, Zhao Zhuo, who is the director of the Shanxi Metropolitan Division, is more qualified to take action. Didn't the officials of Pingyang Prefecture ask Zhao Zhuo for help?

Zhuang Shitong asked Zhao Zhuo if he had heard of this incident. Did he turn a blind eye to the Sun family's power in the court? He lamented that Zhao Zhuo was jealous and hateful when he was young, and he couldn't tolerate the evil behavior of corrupt officials, but now that he is older, he has more worries. He understood that Zhao Zhuo was thinking about the descendants of the family, but he still hoped that Zhao Zhuo could do something. Even if he can't deal with Pingyang Mansion clearly, he has to say hello to the Sun family, and ask the Sun family to tell the in-laws of the children of his family to be more restrained, so as not to make Pingyang Mansion too miserable.

No matter what, it is also Zhao Zhuo's hometown, and Zhao Zhuo has a long-term relationship with the Yingchuan Marquis Mansion, and the latter is about to become in-laws with the Sun family. is also an in-law, the weight of Sun Ge's old in-laws, it can't be compared to the weight of the in-laws of the children of the Sun family, right?

Zhuang Shitong's somewhat yin and yang letter was sent to Taiyuan Mansion the next day. As for when there will be an echo, Zhuang Shitong himself is not sure. Anyway, it's about Zhao Zhuo's hometown, and Zhao Zhuo will always have a reaction.

Before Zhao Zhuo reacted, the second room of the Jin family had already arrived in Chang'an one step ahead.

On the day they arrived in Chang'an, it was just in time for the day before Chinese New Year's Eve. The atmosphere of the Chang'an Mansion is relaxed and leisurely, and they are ready to close their pens for a holiday. For the second room of the Jin family, Governor Huang didn't want to embarrass this group of old, weak, sick and disabled people before the Chinese New Year, so he simply dealt with it first.

Zhang Pinggui and Wang Lao Liu once reported that Jin Miao, Jin Xin's wife Jin Liu, and Jin Xin Jin Miao's widowed sister Aunt Jin had taken the initiative to report the whereabouts of Jin Juren to the killers, and instigated them to kill, Jin Miao even suggested that the killers threaten Jin Juren's youngest son, if he didn't listen, kill his eldest son first, and take care of him. All three were suspected of abetting murder, and all of them were immediately imprisoned.

As for the rest of the people, it is not clear whether they are accomplices or forced thieves, so they are temporarily placed under house arrest in the backyard of an old temple near the government office, and are guarded by special personnel, although the guards are not strict, but it is impossible to escape.

The second old lady Jin and Jin Xin watched their family members being escorted away by the officials, and immediately cried and cried out.
