God-level Consort of the Tang Dynasty

Chapter 588
Yang Cheng looked at the sky, and the moon was covered by a dark cloud.

He thought for a while and said, "One cannot live too uselessly in one's life..."

With that said, Yang Cheng left with a shake of his hand.

"Alas!" Chen Hongyi looked at Yang Cheng's leaving back, sighed, and finally got into the carriage.

……

In the backyard of the government office.

Yu Chigong asked curiously: "Nephew, do you really believe these two people? Are you not worried that they are members of the Dou family?"

Du He smiled and waved his hand.

Zhang Jian stepped forward and put two stacks of thick paper on the table.

Yu Chigong opened it curiously, and it turned out to be all about Yang Cheng and Chen Hongyi's situation. Everything about these two people since their birth was recorded clearly and in great detail.

He glanced at Zhang Jian in surprise, and said, "Good boy, your subordinates are more powerful than the spies in the army!"

How did he know that Du He hadn't arrived in Tongzhou yet, and the Fangfang people had already arrived one step ahead.

Du He said lightly: "In the spring of the eighth year of Wude, Yang Cheng's younger sister married Dou Aiguang, Dou Aiwei's younger brother, and died suddenly within three months. This matter was aroused at the time, and many people knew about Yang Cheng's younger sister. It's not that he died of illness, but that he was murdered by Mrs. Dou...Yang Cheng knew the truth, and wanted to ask for an explanation, but it was useless, and almost ruined Mrs. Dou's murder, and he has been depressed ever since!"

"As for Chen Hongyi, he is timid and afraid of getting into trouble, but because he offended Dou Aiwei during his tenure as Tongzhou Sitian, he will never want to mix with Dou in this life!" Du He continued.

Yuchi Gong suddenly realized.

No wonder Du He dared to trust the two of them so much.

Yu Chigong put down his wine glass, and said: "Now, Yang Cheng and Chen Hongyi have surrendered, nephew, we can take it slowly, and we must not act too hastily, lest Dou's dog jumps over the wall in a hurry."

Although Yu Chigong had a bad temper, he also knew that this matter could not be resolved quickly, so he persuaded Du He many times.

However, from the second day onwards, things far exceeded his expectations.

Early the next morning, Du He took people to inspect the government granary in Tongzhou, and soon found out that Lin Yuhuai, the governor of Tongzhou, and the officials guarding the granary smuggled the high-quality grain turned in by the people to exchange with local merchants in Tongzhou. The most inferior grain, a catty of good grain, can be exchanged for three to four catties of low-quality grain, and the difference in price was embezzled by Lin Yuhuai and others.

Du He was furious on the spot and put Lin Yuhuai in prison.

When the news came out, the entire Dali County was shocked.

But it's not over.

On the third day, Du He visited Chengfang City, Dali County, and found that officials oppressed the people, accepted protection money, and endangered the place. Common people and merchants who sell items must first give him benefits before entering, otherwise the goods will be confiscated.

Du He imprisoned five people including Mayor Huang Kaida.

On the fourth day, Du He captured the Tongzhou Sishi.

On the same day, Tongzhou Sigong was sent to prison.

……

The entire Dali County was shocked.

What was even more shocking was Dou Shi.

Du He moved too fast, and Dou Xianren and others couldn't react at all.

By the time they reacted, more than half of the officials around them had disappeared.

Snapped.

Dou Xianren slapped the table and said angrily, "Du He...that's too much. Those people, after all, were officials of the imperial court, and they were cut down by him like mowing grass. What exactly is he trying to do? Does he want to arouse public anger? "

Zou Lujun said: "Lord Sima, there is another bad news. Now, some people have started to praise Du He in secret, especially those who are hungry. After eating a few full meals, they start to treat Du He like a god." , and the other common people, although they dare not reveal it, are secretly cheering for Du He, if this goes on, it will be bad for us!"

Dou Xianren raised his head and asked, "Everyone, do you have any good ideas?"

Everyone shook their heads helplessly.

It can be said that people are panicking now.

Many officials' buttocks were not clean, and I was afraid that one day Du He would find out something again and arrest himself.

Nobody has an idea.

Dou Xianren asked: "Can Du He say when will the interrogation be?"

Zou Lujun shook his head: "No news for now!"

Dou Xianren stood up at once: "Go, go to the government office, I'm going to see Du He!"

"I am willing to follow Master Sima!"

"Yes, go to Du He for an explanation!"

Everyone came to the government office aggressively, but was told that Du He had left the city to hunt early in the morning.

Everyone didn't believe it, and then asked someone to verify it. Sure enough, Du He had left long ago, and took the brigade with him.

The bold officials originally wanted to make their own decisions to release those imprisoned officials, but the dilapidated government office in the past was suddenly guarded by a large number of personal guards. These people were all members of Yu Chigong, and one brother was killed on the battlefield The veterans who came down were aggressive, not to mention Yu Chigong personally sitting in the town, no matter how daring they were, they could only put their flags to rest.

However, the only good news is that Du He intends to go out for at least ten days for this hunting.

Dou Xianren flicked his sleeves: "Ten days is enough... Let's go back and discuss this matter. If it doesn't work, we can only ask the old man to help! Ten days will definitely turn things around and change the situation!"

Afterwards, Dou Xianren and others gathered in Miaoxian Building and discussed for a long time, but there was nothing to do.

Dou Xianren had no choice but to send everyone away, and then took Zou Lujun back to Dou's old house, and saw Dou Aiwei in the backyard.

backyard.

Beside a crooked willow tree, Dou Aiwei is punching.

Although it is a show, it can strengthen the body.

Dou Xianren hurried forward, kicked and said angrily: "Father, something is wrong..."

Dou Aiwei stopped his movements and waved his hands: "I already know about it, Xianren, you let me down a bit, you just can't hold your breath, I didn't expect Du He to punch you, you just panicked... ...This is not good, Du He...As expected, he still has some skills, but I underestimated him before..."

"Father, if you want to scold, you can scold, but the current situation is not good for us. The officials Du He took down are all ours!" Dou Xianren said anxiously, turning around.

Dou Aiwei calmly said: "Du He imprisoned people but did not interrogate him, which proves that he still has some scruples. At this time, he didn't stay in Tongzhou well, and he dared to go out to hunt. It's really bold. That girl The gangsters in Kouzhai have been entrenched for many years, killing people without blinking an eye, if he falls into the hands of those gangsters, will he have a good end?"

Both Dou Xianren and Zou Lujun were shocked.

Is this going to put Du He to death?
Dou Aiwei sneered and said: "To be kind to the enemy is to not give yourself a chance to live. Du He obviously came here for me this time, Mrs. Dou. Either he dies, or Mrs. Dou dies, so he must die..."

"But, Dad, can those bandits in Yakou Village still believe it?" Dou Xianren asked curiously, thinking of the things from Dou Gou he had received earlier.
