Chapter 824 Really Missing
Regardless of holding his sacred and inviolable airs, he got up and ran over to explain: "It is indeed my servant." He said and looked at the housekeeper, "Why are you here?"

The butler opened his mouth and was about to speak, when he saw a group of people galloping towards him from the direction he came from, dismounted and ran over to capture the Patriarch of the Zhao family.Because they wore the costumes of the Imperial Forest Army and did not enter the defensive range of the palace, the imperial guards in front of the palace did not stop them.

The Patriarch of the Zhao family didn't react until he was cut back with his hands and the rough rope was wrapped around his arm.

While struggling, he yelled: "What are you doing? Who gave you the courage to do this? I am the head of the Zhao family, and even the emperor would not dare to treat me like this!"

He called out to the guard standing beside him again: "I want to see the emperor, I want to see the emperor."

A royal guard kicked him, and kicked the Patriarch of the Zhao family to the ground: "What are you shouting for? You hid the dragon robe privately, attempted to rebel and usurp the throne, and you are about to kill everyone in the house. How dare you yell here? It's you."

"What?" These words were like a thunderbolt from the blue sky. The Patriarch of the Zhao family was stunned and his head was buzzing, but he still insisted on saying, "What are you talking about? How dare you slander our Zhao family? I will sue you in front of the emperor."

The housekeeper of the Zhao family had the opportunity to cry: "Grandfather, it's true. Just now, the imperial army found a dragon robe and some weapons in the backyard of the Seventh Young Master of Dafang."

Patriarch Zhao's head exploded with a "buzz".He stood there in a daze, his eyes staring straight, and he fell to the ground before the housekeeper screamed.

"Old master, old master..." The housekeeper cried and ran over to pinch the Patriarch of the Zhao family, but was pushed away by the Imperial Forest Army.

"Go, take it back and wait for the emperor to deal with it."

In the palace, Zhao Yu had received the news, and a big stone fell to the ground in his heart.

He asked Qi Bokun: "Zhao Bin, the fifth young master of the Zhao family who is in the army, has he been let go?"

Qi Bokun nodded: "Yes, it went well. Xiaoyuan's people hiding in the Zhao family ran to report to him, and he ran away secretly. Our people will point the evidence of the hidden dragon robe to the Zhang family. Zhao Bin is impulsive. , I don’t like to use my brain, and if we are provoked by our people, I will definitely do something like sneak into Zhang’s house, murder and set fire.”

"At that time, Xiaoyuan will help him, let him kill the head of the Zhang family and a few capable descendants with his own hands, and then set fire to it, the Zhang family will be ransacked and beheaded, with no successors, and the emperor Under pressure, it is absolutely impossible for them to jump around again. And the Zhang family was killed by Zhao Bin himself. Even if the aristocratic family guessed that it was our scheme, they cannot accuse the emperor of anything. Those who are timid or intentional will definitely come to surrender to the emperor. There are not many left who do not surrender, and when the time comes, we can plan to kill one or two, and the family will not be troubled."

After Zhao He heard this, his eyes were full of gratitude: "Qi Muyuan is capable of handling things, and when the matter is settled, I will definitely reward him."

Qi Bokun didn't care about big rewards, he didn't lack money and power.He hoped that Zhao Wen could marry Qi Muyuan and Du Jinning.It's just that Du Jinning's real gender hasn't been revealed yet, and even if it is, the words can't come out of his mouth.

Once Zhao Wen knew that he already knew Du Jinning's true gender, the image of a loyal minister he had worked so hard to create over the years would collapse, and he would not be able to speak well in front of Zhao Wen.He lost Zhao Hu's Pang Xin, and it was still unclear whether Du Jinning could come back and become his granddaughter-in-law, let alone participate in the government as a woman.

Therefore, he cannot say many things; he cannot do many things.

"Sharing the emperor's worries is Xiaoyuan's duty, and he should not be rewarded by the emperor." Qi Bokun said.

Although he couldn't tell Du Jinning's gender, he could still say something: "Actually, it's all thanks to Du Jinning."

He raised his eyes: "Du Jinning's research on high-yield rice is due to Sheji. Everyone in the Song Dynasty is grateful to her, and her reputation has reached its peak. In addition, although she has researched rice seeds, she may encounter difficulties in promoting planting in the future." When it comes to all kinds of problems, she is inseparable from her. She is very important to Song Dynasty. Only when such a person disappears, the emperor has a reason to make a big fuss, order a search of Zhao's house, and lead to follow-up measures. Otherwise, even if we come up with these strategies, there is nothing we can do. "

He said with emotion: "It can be said that Du Jinning is the one who contributed the most to this incident. I just don't know who she was captured by, where she is now, and whether she is safe or not."

Speaking of the latter, his worry was palpable.

Zhao Yu also fell silent.

Although he gave up the idea of ​​bringing Du Jinning into the harem, he never forgot the importance of Du Jinning to Song Dynasty.He was also very worried about Du Jinning's situation.

He turned to Mr. Wu and said, "Ask someone to ask Zhao Jin if there is any news about Du Jinning."

Eunuch Wu responded and went.

After a cup of tea, the eunuch sent to ask Zhao Jin came back and said, "General Zhao said that the clues have been broken, and there is no trace of Mr. Du at the moment. We will continue to investigate."

After hearing this, Qi Bokun felt very at ease.

Qi Muyuan has been growing in the past two years.Qi Bokun believed that with his means, coupled with Du Jinning's extraordinary resourcefulness and prudence, Du Jinning wanted to hide, not to mention Zhao Jin and the Imperial Forest Army, it was another spy agency in Zhao He's hands to investigate. easily found.

Zhao He was even more worried, and looked at Qi Bokun: "Why don't you ask Xiaoyuan to investigate. He is the most professional in investigating cases, so let him investigate."

If he had given up his mind, he would never have said such a thing; now that he has asked Qi Muyuan to look for Du Jinning, it can be seen that he really puts the community first.

"Your Majesty, no." Qi Bokun stopped him, "Xiaoyuan has limited manpower and energy, and it is already very difficult to deal with the two behemoths of the Zhang family and the Zhao family. At this time, you must not be distracted by other things. The emperor also I know Xiaoyuan's thoughts on Du Jinning. Du Jinning is very important to him, but no matter how important it is, it is more important than national affairs. Taking advantage of this opportunity to let the family fall apart, and no longer have the strength to compete with the emperor, is the top priority. Du Jinning can only Let it go first."

Zhao Yu was moved again.

The grandparents of the Qi family are loyal.How lucky he is to have this loyal minister.

……

At this moment, Qi Muyuan was indeed worthy of Zhao He's touch.

He knows the importance of destroying the family.

If the aristocratic family is not destroyed, it is still unknown whether the iron coupons in Du Jinning's hands will work; Du Jinning wants to participate in the government as a woman, which is even more a dream.

So since Du Jinning was taken away by Zhang Kuang after he disguised himself, he no longer had the energy to take care of Du Jinning, but devoted all his energy and manpower to the Zhao family and the Zhang family.

He didn't know that Du Jinning's people had also contributed a lot to the affairs of the Zhao family and the Zhang family, but he only knew that things were going very smoothly, almost completely following their plan.

Watching the Yulin army successfully search out the dragon robe and weapons in Zhao's house; watching Zhao Bin escape from the barracks and taking away two masters trained by Zhao's family who were lurking in the army as dark sons, and then the three of them sneaked into Zhang's house at night , with the help of Qi Muyuan's people to lure away the nursing home and administer drugs, they successfully killed the head of the Zhang family and the main personnel; watched them set fire to the Zhang family.In the end, Qi Muyuan took action himself and captured Zhao Bin when the three of them left the city.

After being captured and interrogated to extract confessions, it was confirmed that the Zhang family was killed by Zhao Bin and others. It was not until dawn the next day that Qi Muyuan, who had not closed his eyes all night and was highly nervous, dragged his exhausted body home.

Only then did he have the time to pay attention to Du Jinning, and called Su Yongxing: "Go and contact Zhang Kuang and see what's going on with Master Du."

Xiu Yongxing took the order to go, and when he came back an hour later, his face was very ugly: "Master, Shisan was fainted in that yard, and Master Du disappeared."

"What?" Qi Muyuan stood up with a groan, his face turned pale.
