Chapter 198: Doing Things Absolutely Nothing
In fact, it was exactly as Ling Feng expected. When Zhou Yulang knew that he had died so many county orders, although his face was gloomy and terrifying, he quickly calmed down and made up his mind to kill.www.biquge.info Now that the matter has become a big problem, the tail of the hand must be completely erased, and the remaining Yuxi County Order must also die!
"Butler, you send an order to the second master to destroy all the living mouths recorded in the account book!"
Zhou Yulang said coldly. He didn't just want to kill the living county magistrate, but he wanted to kill everyone in the account books! At this point, if he wanted to do it, he would have to do it to an end. There is no other way to live.
"Yes!"
The housekeeper answered, but his heart sank, and he hurriedly retreated. Because he is also a person in the know, he is worried that Zhou Yulang will kill himself too?
......
At this time, six doors.
After listening to the information reported by Zheng Dongliu, Song Tianhao's expression also changed drastically, and he said in a deep voice: "Zhou Yulang will never be so unwise, this must be framed by someone behind the scenes! This person's plan is not trivial, and Zhou Yulang was forced into a desperate situation as soon as he made a move!"
Although it was not Zhou Yulang's doing, none of the crimes recorded in the account books could be faked, so it was difficult for him to get rid of suspicion. The most important thing is that the death of four county commanders at once must have caused an uproar in the court. This matter can't be covered up at all, which means that Zhou Yulang is likely to be thoroughly investigated and imprisoned.
Zheng Dongliu said: "My lord, then how do we deal with it?"
"Secretly track down the mastermind behind the scenes, and wait and see what happens!"
Song Tianhao was silent for a moment and said. Because if Zhou Yulang's crime is really investigated, it will be a troublesome matter. He is a veteran master of refining skills, holding divine weapons, and such characters are the mainstay of any sect they are in. If he is forced to be helpless, he will definitely go to the Netherworld, and the Netherworld Palace will gladly accept it, which will be a loss for the imperial court.
Besides, Qinghe County had just been stabilized, and if there was another big incident like a rebellion by the county guards, wouldn't that show the incompetence of the six gates? At that time, Long Yan was furious, and he didn't know how many people would be implicated, and he might also lose his official position and go to prison. But it is impossible for him to help Zhou Yulang cover up the crime, so he can only extinguish the source behind the scenes.
"Yes, sir!"
Zheng Dongliu immediately took the order and left.
......
At this time, the county governor's mansion, Wu Yuanxin listened to the report of his cronies, and the corners of his mouth twitched slightly.
Can't this Qinghe County be a little more stable? He had just sat in this position, so naturally he would not rashly make enemies, so he just put away the account books last time, and had no intention of reporting them at all. This time it was too big, and he was also worried that there would be too much trouble and eventually implicate himself.
Therefore, he was silent for a moment and said, "Send someone to investigate, and you must find out the people behind the scenes hidden in the county city." ”
"Yes, sir!"
Yu Yang hugged his fists and quickly left.
......
At the post station, Gao Hong was just about to rest, but he received a message from Wulongwei, his face suddenly sank, and he hurriedly sent someone to report the matter to the emperor.
After the death of so many court officials, he couldn't hold back.
......
A quarter of an hour later, a child delivered a letter to the county warden.
Later, Zhou Yulang opened the letter, only glanced at it a few times, his fists were clenched tightly, his face was pale, the temperature around him rose sharply, and a terrible anger was about to erupt.
The old butler next to him was frightened, and he was silent and didn't dare to speak.
It wasn't until nearly a quarter of an hour later that Zhou Yulang's breath stabilized.
The old butler cautiously said, "My lord, are you alright?"
Zhou Yulang didn't open his mouth and handed him the letter.
The old butler was reluctant to see it, because the more secrets he knew, the more likely he was to be killed. But at this time, Zhou Yulang asked him to watch it, but he had to watch it. He opened it and looked at it, and there was only one paragraph on it: I gave six copies of the account book, except for you, Lin Feng, Song Tianhao, Wu Yuanxin, Yu Shenxiu, and Qin Cha each have one!
His expression changed drastically and said, "My lord, they have account books in their hands, but they don't say a word, are they secretly investigating your lordship?"
Zhou Yulang is obviously worried about this, with the account books, if he finds a few more living mouths, that is, the human and material evidence is complete, and it will be difficult for him to get rid of the crime. But Lin Feng, Song Tianhao, Wu Yuanxin, and Yu Shenxiu were by no means as easy as others. So, he had to fight back. He wants to do it completely, and if all the people who know their secrets die, then the account books will not be able to make waves.
Therefore, he looked at the old butler and said, "Ah Fu, how many years have you been with me?"
The old housekeeper's name is Zhao Quanfu, Ah Fu was the name he called when he was young, when he was just an ordinary housekeeper, and it was because of Zhou Yulang's appreciation that he was promoted to housekeeper all the way. It's a name I haven't heard in years, but it sounds familiar.
But the old butler suddenly had an ominous premonition in his heart, and replied: "It's been almost thirty years!"
Zhou Yulang said with a serious expression: "Ah Fu, how have I treated you all these years?"
The old butler's heart was desolate, and his tone trembled: "Grace is as heavy as a mountain!"
Zhou Yulang took out a black pill from the mustard seed bag and handed it over, saying, "Ah Fu, you still have a son, after you die, I will treat him as my son!"
Steward Zhao held the black pill, his hands were trembling, but he didn't dare to resist, he knew too many secrets, and he would definitely die. If he takes this elixir, he can still keep his son alive. Therefore, he silently took the pill, and quickly became poisonous, and the seven orifices bled to death.
Not only did Steward Zhao die, but many henchmen who knew Zhou Yulang's secret were also quietly killed by him.
And the second master Zhou Bin also led the masters of the Zhou family to attack on all fronts, he did enough to do it, it was inevitable that these people left some account books and other things, and dozens of tragedies occurred in just one hour, and the house was also burned. Among them is the Yuxi County Order, as well as the previous county orders that were killed.
And many valuable things in Zhou Yulang's house have also disappeared. Even if someone turns the county guard mansion and the Zhou family's mansion upside down, they can't turn much silver taels, and many family guards have also turned from light to dark, and the maids and servants have also been reduced a lot. The head of the three major families in Qinghe County turned into a down-and-out mansion in an instant.
......
At this time, the head hall of the Qingjiao Gang was dark.
Ling Feng was practicing swords in the courtyard, and Xiao Wenliang came to report: "Deputy gang leader, something is wrong!"
Ling Feng slowly retracted his sword, and said indifferently: "Say!"
Xiao Wenliang hugged his fists and said: "That Yuxi County Commander was killed, not only that, but there were dozens of tragic incidents in Qinghe County, including the widows and family members of several county commanders who died before. Outside, it was said that Zhou Yulang killed people and killed people, and the rumors were boiling, and people were already panicking, and many merchants were ready to move out. ”
Ling Feng sighed faintly and said, "I didn't expect Zhou Yulang to have such courage and do things so desperately!"
Xiao Wenliang looked puzzled and said: "Zhou Yulang acted like this, the blind can see that he did it, if the imperial court sends someone to investigate thoroughly, he will still die!"
"Wrong! Zhou Yulang can be a county guard, how can he be an ignorant person? If he does this, there is a high chance that he will be fine!"
Ling Feng shook his head and said. What if all the people involved were killed by Zhou Yulang, and even the house was burned, so don't expect any evidence to be left. As long as Zhou Yulang bites to death and refuses to admit it, without the slightest evidence, it is impossible for the imperial court alone to bend into a move. Because Zhou Yulang is not a scholar who is powerless, he can send a messenger and handle it at will.
Although Wu Tianliang took the lead and pressed forward step by step, after all, his strength was far inferior to that of the Zhou family, a behemoth who was the first family of Qinghe. At this moment, the situation was turned over by Zhou Yulang.
