Chapter 75 The Real Heinous Villain

Shen Xian sent Yuzhu out of the Hanging Flower Gate, turned right and stepped onto the carved corridor. The two walked slowly, and Yuzhu was not at all cautious. She raised her head and asked Shen Xian, "Brother Shen, how long can you stay in Beijing this time?"

Shen Xian is tall and big, and his steps are a bit big, no matter how slow he is, he will always be faster than her, so he always stops after two steps, and when he hears Yuzhu's question, he says, "The emperor called me back this time to The Fenghao banditry incident, if nothing unexpected happens, I will lead the troops there, and when the matter is over, I should stay in the capital as well."

Yuzhu probably understands a little bit, these three years are his training period, he earns some military rewards, and the Holy Majesty rewards him for his meritorious deeds. If he is getting rid of Feng Hao's banditry, the emperor will only pay more attention to him, and his official position will not be high when he returns. Low, their military generals are different from civil servants. Military generals can be promoted as long as they have military merits, while civil servants need to work through their qualifications slowly, unless they have made some contributions to the court. Generally speaking, military generals use their lives to gain military merits, and civil servants will be better off. many.

Yuzhu was very worried, "Brother Shen, I have also heard about the banditry in Fenghao. They are all desperadoes or felons who were investigated by the court. They do all kinds of evil and are cruel. They often harass the people and families there. It is also quite powerful against them, the emperor has sent many soldiers to suppress the bandits in the past two years, but all of them returned without success."

"En." Shen Xian nodded slightly, "It's impossible to go head-to-head. They always avoid it. It's actually not difficult. It needs to be outsmarted. In addition, it will take more than half a year to arrange it. I can't be in a hurry, so during this time I will stay in the capital."

Not many people knew that the Holy Majesty wanted him to lead the army to suppress the bandits, and he told Yuzhu because he knew that she had a strict mouth and would not speak out casually.As soon as he talked about outsmarting, Yuzhu also understood that this matter should not be talked about to the outside world, she nodded clearly, "Then I will come to meet Big Brother Shen tomorrow."

Sending Yuzhu directly to the gate of the Duke's Mansion, watching the Jiang family's carriage disappear into the alley, before Shen Xian stepped into the gate, the servant guarding the gate immediately said, "Your Majesty, the princess invites you to go there."

"No." Shen Xian's expression was indifferent, "You go and tell her, I will go and pay her a visit after the perfect time tonight, and now I want to go to Cui Ning Yuan."

The servant didn't dare to delay, so he went to the main courtyard to inform Jiahe, Jiahe was stunned when he heard this, but he was not surprised.Yes, when she left, her eldest son was only five or six years old. Not long after she gave birth to little Shen Mei, she was really tired of the life in the Duke's Mansion and proposed to go to Pingzhou to recuperate. At that time, the little boy with red lips and white teeth grabbed her "Mother, mother, why don't you stay? My son is going to the palace to ask for an imperial doctor. Mother, please don't leave, okay."

She still cruelly left her ignorant son and daughter waiting to be fed.

She should have known that this would be the result, she had nothing to complain about, she was the one who was sorry for them.

Shen Xian went to the Cui Ning Courtyard to talk a lot with Shen Mei, had dinner with her, and coaxed her to sleep before going to the main courtyard. Through the window lattice, the candlelight flickered inside, and the lady guarding the gate saw him and immediately went in. Informed, Jiahe sorted out his disguise before he was invited in.

Jiahe was sitting on the spacious grand teacher's chair, and she was a little excited when she saw her son with extraordinary appearance standing in front of the green stone screen with carved phoenix feathers carved in huanghuali. After all, she had been by her side for several years. It’s so big, come here and let your mother take a look.”

Shen Xian stood there motionless, with the candlelight behind his back, and he couldn't see the expression on his face clearly. Jiahe could only hear his frosty words, "I have grown up these years, and I already know many things. Why did you leave back then? Also find someone to investigate clearly. As for why you returned to Beijing, that person should come back too. I don't care what you do, I just hope you can still remember that you are a serious wife of the Duke's Mansion and A Mei's mother, don't do it Something that insults the government of the country."

He paused, turned a blind eye to the tears on Jiahe's face, and continued, "Even if you don't have feelings for Ah Mei, at least you have to act, she misses you all the time, I don't know that you are a cold person, no matter what , take care of yourself, you don’t need to come to me for anything in the future, you and I really don’t have much to talk about, so that’s it, and you should rest earlier.” After speaking, he left without a pause, and the rest of Jiahe threw himself on the chair cry sad.

The weather in April is still a bit cold, especially at night, when the dew is heavy. Shen Xian is wearing a big cloak, and the lower part of his clothes has been soaked in dew, but the coldness on his face is even heavier. Knowing why this woman left him and his sister, as he grew older, he also heard some rumors, and asked someone to investigate, and there was nothing unclear.His fickle mother is an infatuated kind. Before she married her father, she had a crush. After all these years, she couldn't forget her. She even ignored her two biological daughters and hid in Pingzhou with a sad feeling.

The person he likes is also an official in the court. He has not been in the capital for these years, but has been in Yunzhou. Last winter, he just got the emperor's order to return to Beijing. When his mother knew about it, she followed her back, just to see that person. It's ridiculous.

The next day, Yuzhu specially came to the Duke's Mansion to have lunch with Shen Xian and Shen Mei. She had a lot of conversations with Shen Xian. She has a cheerful personality and can say a few words to anyone she meets, let alone a brother who has not seen her for a few years. Treat people the same.

It's just a day or two to catch up on the old days, Yuzhu is not good to go to the Duke's mansion all the time, not to mention Brother Shen has a lot of things to do, and Princess Jiahe is also returning to the mansion, so it is not good for her to go often.

The days passed quickly, and it was May in a blink of an eye. Yuzhu was practicing calligraphy in the house that day, and Ming Lu ran to her and whispered to her, "Girl, Tian Fu has returned to Beijing, and he brought that batch of goods. matter."

Yuzhu hummed, "You and Mingchen should take care of each other, so that nothing unexpected happens."

"Don't worry about it, girl." Ming Lu said, "Miss, there is one more thing I want to report to you. Tian Kunhu, the son of Tian Fu, is always wandering around in front of Miss Yue'e's house these days. I think this person is out of his mind."

Yuzhu paused, and put the pen in her hand on the celadon ice-patterned inkstone. She frowned, "You and Mingchen can help me take care of it, and I'll let Sister Yue'e know."

"Girl, don't worry, slaves will save it."

Yuzhu went to Aunt Qiu's house in the afternoon, told them about this matter, and told Yue'e not to go out these days, Yue'e said, "Sister Yuzhu, don't worry, I'll save you, those wolf-hearted things should be punished by God. "It can be seen that I hate it very much.

Within a few days, Ming Lu sent another message to Yu Zhu, saying that Tian Fu had resold the goods to various cloth shops in the capital, and today he finally recognized that they were fakes, and sued Tian's family to the government. He smiled and said, "Girl, don't worry, that Tian Fu has been put into prison, and the goods have been confiscated by the government, and he has also paid a few silver for the cloth shop. He ate the goods at the beginning and borrowed a lot of money." With less silver, and now the goods are confiscated and destroyed by the government, he can only sell the property of the seller to pay off the debt, which may not even be enough for the family property."

At the beginning, Tian Fu ignored the persuasion of his family and insisted on doing tens of thousands of taels of silver. He thought he would make a lot of money, but unexpectedly he fell into prison.

Yuzhu asked, "What happened to Chen Dalian's family?"

"You don't have to worry about this girl. At the beginning, Tian Fu and Tian Shi agreed that they would earn half of the money for the family. Tian Shi was also greedy. He was afraid that her brother would deceive her, so he signed a contract on purpose. Even if he wanted to, he couldn't afford it. The two families are finished, and the deed was signed by Chen Dalian, so it is inevitable that they will be imprisoned."

The laws of this era will also severely punish the sale of counterfeit goods, destroying things, fines, and a prison sentence are indispensable.

The life of the Tian family is also a mess. Tian Kunhu and Tian Yuetong have no intention of murdering other girls' homes. Their family is miserable.

The Tian family also blamed the Tian family for not persuading them at the beginning, but now that something happened to complain, the whole two families fought instead, and because of this incident, the business of the jewelry store plummeted, no one came to buy it, and the debt collectors came to smash it all day long. Helpless, he sold the shop and house to pay off the debt, and rented a small yard to live in.

That's it, the debt was not paid off, Tian Fu and Chen Dalian were locked up in prison for half a month and beat fifty boards before they were released, hiding in the small yard all day long.After Chen Dalian's injury got better, he went to look for Qiu Erniang, but the gatehouse was closed, and no one answered his knock all day.

Seeing him returning empty-handed, Tian stood in the courtyard and abused him vigorously, demanding that he must get money from the mother and daughter.

After asking for a few days, I didn't even see anyone, but the creditor found their residence and beat them up again.It is impossible to do business in the capital again. Their reputation is gone. No matter where they move, they will always be found by their creditors. It is really hard to live. After two or three months like this, the two families together, Might as well go back home.

I don't know at home that they have a bad reputation, and it will be easier to make a comeback.In this way, the two sold all the valuables at home, and left the capital in a sneaky way the next day as soon as the city gate opened.

Yuzhu was not surprised to hear the news, and she also secretly exerted some force, the Tian family will definitely leave here.

It's already midsummer, the weather is hot, and the uncle's mansion has ice cubes in storage. Putting a few pots of ice in the house every day can keep you cool. I seldom go out during the day, but the night market at night is quite lively.

Yuzhu especially likes the snacks and excitement at the night market, so she makes appointments with Yue'e, Shen Mei, or Jiang Yuxi from Zhongshu Shilang's family to go to the night market together. The gentle and gentle upbringing, watching them eat those snacks, always persuaded them, and later——even she ate them.

The little girls are carefree, and the days go by very fast. When the new year is approaching, Shen Xian enters the palace to report to Emperor Ruiwu about the bandits infested in Fenghao, "Your Majesty, Zhang Dao has already mixed in with those bandits. It was said in the secret letter, The leader of these people is a man named Du Jian. I remember that he was a repeat criminal who wiped out the Liao family in Xiliang back then. He had hundreds of lives in his hands. If you trust others, even if Zhang Dao sneaks in, it will take some time to lay the wires, you must be cautious about this matter, and catch them all, there must be no mistakes."

Zhang Dao was Shen Xian's hidden guard. He was tall and ruthless, and he didn't look like a good person. It took him nearly ten months to get in among those bandits, and when he learned that the leader was Du Jian, even Shen Xian took it seriously.

Du Jian was originally the new housekeeper and guard of the Liao family in Xiliang. This was like sending wolves to the sheep's nest. He saw the beauty of the youngest daughter of the Liao family who had not left the cabinet, raped and killed her, and was followed by the little maids in the mansion. The mistress of the Liao family ran into her and killed all of them. In the end, all the people in the mansion were killed by him. He was very skilled in martial arts, and even escaped when he was besieged by the guards in the mansion.I heard that the officials who went to Liao's house to investigate the case couldn't bear to see the tragic situation of Liao's house, and their eyes were red.

This man is a truly heinous villain. After he escaped, the life in his hand has never been cut off.

Emperor Ruiwu couldn't help frowning when he heard that it was this person, "How long does Aiqing think it will take to gain his trust, and set up a good plan to wipe out these personal treacherous people." Being harassed by these people, they can do any evil thing.Many people were afraid of these bandits, and dragged their families away from their hometowns where they had lived for decades.
