Chapter 60

Jiang Xin pointed to the first one and said: "In Zhizhou, Shanxi, eight sects suspected of cults were destroyed. The public's reaction is not very good. Many people gathered to them to beat drums and complain. It is said that they think these sects are Tiansheng. Go down to save the common people."

Mr. Qin said: "It's really absurd. I'm afraid these people have been brainwashed so deeply that they have forgotten their fear."

It stands to reason that ordinary people should be afraid of the government, and even gathered a crowd to go to the government to beat drums, which shows that the thinking of these people has been completely changed.

Jiang Xin pointed to the second one and said, "Among the arrested people, the leaders died one after another, and there is nothing behind them."

Jiang Zhen snorted and said: "It goes without saying, I'm afraid that the people behind the scenes are afraid that these people will leak more information, kill people to silence them? Or replace them with death row prisoners."

If so, then things are much more serious than they expected.

Not only that, but there were also courtiers who wrote letters to intercede with the implicated officials, and there were quite a few of them.

Jiang Xin sneered: "I'm afraid the person behind the scenes is a no-brainer. Although the emperor is old, he was also a decisive person when he was young. When the tiger is old, it is also a tiger. It will never change its nature." Eat people?"

Qin Lang glanced at Jiang Xin, nodded and said, "I'm afraid the emperor will make bigger moves later."

Jiang Xin was preparing for the Chinese New Year, and the compound sent six pigs over before the Chinese New Year. They fried meatballs, made lotus root clips, small crispy meat, and made a large batch of frozen dumplings.

Jiang Xin asked her family's helpers to cook a lot of New Year's food. Because part of it was to be given away, Jiang Xin specially watched the fillings and made them very carefully. .

After the New Year ceremony, the head of Ma Da received the cooked food made by Jiang Xin's family on the New Year's Day, and went out to look at it. He picked up a bowl of meatballs, small crispy meat and lotus root, and squeezed two buns to eat.

Mrs. Ma also ate two, and said with a smile: "The Jiang family is too polite!"

General Fang also received cooked food. He was alone at the border with a concubine. He was not allowed to go back during the Chinese New Year. He was very happy to receive the cooked food made by Jiang Xin, so he immediately ordered some to be used.

Soon, the New Year's Eve came, and several households in the family ate from morning to night, and the helpers had to rest for the New Year. Fortunately, most of the food at home was made into semi-finished products, and the sauce bones were all stewed and put in jars , If you want to eat, just put it on and heat it up.

The family didn't buy maids, so Feng Xiuxiang now only had two maids left. They were busy at home during the Chinese New Year, and they both went out to help. Fortunately, the master's family was really generous, and each gave a red envelope of five taels of silver, and also rewarded them with food. Delighted.

Everyone was lively and lively, but Emperor Zhaocheng, who was far away in the capital, didn't even give others a chance to celebrate the New Year. They ransacked their homes overnight and arrested hundreds of people. The emperor didn't sleep very well that night.

On the second day of the Lunar New Year's Day, at the New Year's Eve, all the officials and family members above rank six entered the palace to worship, but there was not much joy on their faces, and they were all terrified, deeply afraid of being implicated.

Until the seventh day of the Lunar New Year, the emperor’s secret orders were sent out from the capital, and a total of forty copies were sent out. The garrison, as well as the major prefectures, copied all the sects and some inns written on superstitions, and then they were secretly examined by the secret guards.

Regarding the matter of the cult organization, it has expanded very seriously, and it will take ten years at the latest. I am afraid that their Qi family will not be able to protect their country.

For so many years, he has been slack, and the way the people behind the scenes operate is secret enough that now he has to be rough.

I would rather kill by mistake than let one go.

First, according to the information collected by the nails placed in various prefectures and counties, do a rough sieve, and then determine the location more accurately, catch all of them, and there will always be goods.

Liaodong is really far away, and it's winter again, so it took half a month to deliver it quickly. The letter was addressed to the local magistrate and general He Fang.

He gave six clear locations that needed to be thoroughly searched, and two locations were a little far away. It would take at least a day and a night to ride there, so General Fang sent Qin Lang and five hundred soldiers to go there.

Not only Qin Lang, but also Feng Qianhu, Jiang Cunliang, and Jiang Zhen led the team.

Jiang Xin immediately let the sugar workshop tentatively settle down, hired people to heighten and strengthen the walls of several courtyards, and hired some thugs from Ma Da's family to help guard the courtyard recently.

Sure enough, within a few days, a few groups of fleeing people entered the city, burned down the houses of several families, robbed their belongings, and hid them.

The yamen gates in the city were searched everywhere, and it was frantic. Jiang Xin made people look after the door, and Feng Xiuxiang was the key protection target. He was only allowed to walk around the house, not even the yard.

Jiang Xin was a little worried about the safety of the compound. After all, there were more than 40 children and some women. Although someone was hired to take care of them, there were so many children. If someone went in, it would be troublesome.

What Jiang Xin didn't expect was that a group of fugitives really wanted to hide in the compound. They robbed a family before and lived there for a few days. When the neighbors were suspicious, they ran away overnight.

Before that, they also asked the family where they could hide around.

This family didn't know what to think, so they directly said that there were several yards at the base of the northwest city wall that were vacant, and there seemed to be a lot of children practicing martial arts in one yard, as if they were servants trained by a big family.

This group thinks there are only dozens of children, even if there is a janitor, the eight of them can handle it casually.

As a result, after entering, they were first caught by a few thugs. Originally, they wanted to catch the child and threaten them. Who would have thought, where is the child? A dagger was pulled out from his waist, and it directly pierced the thigh of a man pretending to be holding a child.

The one who strikes is ruthless, bleeding profusely, and the people running around are also the little leaders of some cult organizations. They usually deceive people, traffic people, sell some pills and so on. Not very often.

So, within a quarter of an hour, the eight people were all arrested.

When Jiang Xin got the news, he hurried to go with Heidou Dou and Cao Xinzhi with his staff, and while sending people to declare at the customs, he hurried to the compound to check.

Good guy, there are bloodstains all over the ground, and the second head is also in the compound, checking the children. Except for one child who was frightened, everyone is very energetic and eager to try. I wish I could have another group of people , Let them practice their hands.

When the people from the yamen came, they were also taken aback. The blood on the ground thought it was hurting the common people, but after asking about it, they were also stunned.

After several large-scale investigations, all the fleeing people in the city were arrested, and Zhen'an City was temporarily closed for a period of time.

But Jiang Huimin, who was far away in the capital, was a little surprised by what happened recently. How could it be different from the previous life?
 Good night, alright.
