Chapter 118
After Lu Xiuyuan took the people away, Ye Chengwei watched Hua Rujin for a long time, and his curiosity became even stronger: "You know a lot."

"It's just playing tricks in the class. It's fine that Mr. Ye doesn't laugh."

Hua Rujin was not angry because of the thing he blamed herself just now, but thought of him trying to protect her, she also sincerely thanked: "Thank you, Young Master Ye, for being able to speak up for justice regardless of past suspicions."

"You do remember that."

Ye Chengwei thought about the bowl of porridge that she dropped out of the package, and his face was full of helplessness.

This girl is really tricky now, if she is not careful, she will get her way by accident.

"It seems that Mr. Ye is still brooding."

Hua Rujin knew what he was referring to, and smiled at him.

Anyway, this is a messy account, and no one can blame anyone.

Ye Chengwei didn't feel angry because of this.

For some reason, her figure has been popping up in his mind from time to time these days. He is not used to having such a deadly enemy who fights against him all day without this girl in the past few days.

Thinking about how she spoke freely in front of those high-ranking officials just now, he couldn't help breaking into a cold sweat at this moment.

Slowly approaching her, the emotions in Ye Chengwei's eyes were a bit complicated, and he said in a low tone: "Hua Rujin, I know you are unwilling to be mediocre, and you are also a kind person, but in the future you want to Remember to let me know in advance what you do."

"If I didn't find these clues today, what would Mr. Ye do?"

Hua Rujin recalled the scene of his sword pointing at Liu Yan, and felt very sad.

"I have my own countermeasures."

Ye Chengwei smiled faintly, and then hurriedly changed the subject: "After traveling for so long, you must be hungry. I'll ask Ting An to prepare some food for you, so you can rest here. Leave the matter to me, and you don't have to worry about it anymore."

After driving for a day and a night, Hua Rujin was already exhausted like a dog, but before the dust settled, she couldn't be in the mood to sleep.

Moreover, the groups involved behind this case are obviously not simple.

She also asked with some concern: "If this matter is involved?"

Before she could finish speaking, Ye Chengwei stopped her questioning directly, shook his head and said: "The Son of Heaven breaks the law and the common people are the same crime. As long as the evidence is solid, no one can escape the punishment of the law."

After finishing the words, he ordered Ting An to ask for some food from the army stationed in Jiangfang, and watched Hua Rujin finish the food in the house, and waited for her to rest before going out to wait for the news.

Lu Xiuyuan gathered nearby fishermen and salvage teams, and used the diving equipment they provided to dive into the bottom of the water for more than ten meters along the water near the Jiangfang station, and finally found the source of the black water.

I saw that the entire part of the bottom of the water that was close to the mountain collapsed in a large area, and a steady stream of black water continued to pour out.

Lu Xiuyuan ordered people to find several corpses and some mining tools near the collapsed mine. Due to the high water pressure and serious water pollution, it was difficult to continue searching, so he had to order everyone to go back to the water bank and take the underwater The situation was truthfully reported to the county magistrate.

Ye Chengwei looked at the salvaged corpses and mining tools, which were enough to prove what Hua Rujin said was true, and immediately asked Liu Yan: "Master Admiral, as Admiral Jiang Fang, how dare you hide this for others?" What shame do you have to go back to Beijing to meet His Majesty with such a wicked deed that has devastated all conscience?"

"This"

Liu Yan looked terrified, faltering and saying: "Lord Ye, I really don't know."

After finishing speaking, he hurriedly asked Wei Shuhan: "Old Wei, although I am leading Jiangfang, I have never heard of a coal mine hidden in Baitou Mountain."

Wei Shuhan put his arms around his chest, he knew that the champion was threatening Liu Yan, and he also echoed: "Admiral Liu, now is not the time to pursue your fault, if you want to avoid punishment in front of your majesty, the most urgent thing is to cooperate with the champion." Lang, find out the ins and outs of the matter, and reduce your guilt."

After looking at Wen Yuming meaningfully, he added: "The ones that should be arrested, the ones that should be tried, and the most important thing is to calm the public's anger."

"What Elder Wei said is absolutely true."

Liu Yan looked at Ye Chengwei understandingly, and immediately became very submissive: "From today onwards, all the personnel in the Jiangfang garrison are dispatched by Ye Zhixian, and I will cooperate with Ye Zhixian to find out the truth of the matter."

"Thank you."

Ye Chengwei cupped his hands and replied.

What is most needed right now is manpower, not only to search out the remaining corpses buried underground as much as possible, but also to catch all criminals as soon as possible.

After thinking for a short moment, he calmly ordered: "Then I will trouble the admiral to arrest the evil Taoist priest who deceived the public with his lies, and send someone to summon the nearby people to come to Baitou Mountain to identify the corpse."

Without hesitation, Liu Yan waved his big hand, and the soldiers under him hurried to various places.

Ye Chengwei's heart is like a bright mirror. This matter is probably related to His Royal Highness Yun. Three thousand lives are right under his nose. Since he can't protect him against his will, he can only tear himself apart.

So no matter what the outcome of the matter is, he has to make the matter unstoppable in advance and let the people's grievances boil, so as not to fall into a passive position.

Thinking of this, he ordered Lu Xiuyuan: "You immediately send someone to arrest and detain all the officials who worked in Jiang'an County 18 years ago."

After glancing at Wen Yuming with deep eyes, he said to Han Li with a slight smile: "Han Tongpan, if you say that this incident 18 years ago was only done by the small officials in Jiang'an County, it would be difficult for these small officials in Jiang'an County to do it. Hiding in the deep mountains unknowingly, no one would dare to believe that there are no forces in the state capital or even the provincial capital."

Han Li understood the meaning of his words, and quickly agreed: "The inspection department is willing to listen to Lord Ye's orders."

Ye Chengwei didn't answer, Han Li immediately understood his intention, walked up to Wen Yuming and made a gesture of invitation: "Prefect Wen, I offended you, if I remember correctly, you were the mansion of Jingzhou 18 years ago." The general judge, who is in charge of the state government's money and food corvee, please ask the magistrate to accompany the official to the inspection department."

Wen Yuming was so frightened that cold sweat broke out on his forehead, but he still argued with reason: "Han Tongpan, the government doesn't know about this matter."

But how could the inspector Sina care about this, now Han Li just wanted to draw a line with Wen Yuming, and with a tough attitude, he directly sent someone to control Wen Yuming and the officials around him.

Thinking of the deaths of Tuhong and Liu Cheng, Ye Chengwei deliberately told Han Li: "Han Tongpan, I hope that before the truth comes to light, no accident will happen to any of the prisoners detained by the Inspection Department."

Han Li quickly assured: "Master Ye, please don't worry, the lower officials have a sense of propriety."

Ye Chengwei smiled and nodded, looking at the surrounding people who came one after another, his heart was inexplicably sour, and he said to Tang Haoran with a sullen face: "Tang county magistrate, you immediately recruit civilians to dig out the collapsed mine shaft, and all the people who were killed must be taken away." A lot of dead bodies were searched out."

Tang Haoran silently glanced at Wen Yuming, who was already under control, cupped his hands solemnly and said, "I will take orders."
