Alian nodded, thinking of the relatives and fellow villagers who were killed by the evil thieves and buried in the pit at the foot of the mountain, and said to Li Yu: "Madam, after the government officials come, we want to invite someone to bury our relatives. "

"Okay, I will mention this to the officials. You can recall them carefully. The faces of the gangsters who have been in the village over the years will be drawn by someone so that they can be found."

Alian looked at Li Yu and said: "Madam, the thieves who left turned into ashes. We all remember that the thieves who came to massacre the village that night all covered their faces with black scarves. The leader of the thieves wore a mask, and only two eyeballs were exposed. Outside, the evil thief was tall and had a hoarse voice, and he stood there without making any move."

"I heard him ordering the young woman to stay. I also heard my father-in-law yell, they are not bandits, they are officers and soldiers."

Li Yu remembered in his heart, "Okay, tell the sisters, when the government officials come, tell them everything you remember so that they can search faster. You go to work first. The steward in Zhuangzi went out yesterday, and probably today He will come around, and I will go to the village entrance to guard him later and catch him first."

Alian nodded and said: "I know, I'll let them think about it when I go back and remember the person clearly." Li Qing, Zhao Cai and Leng Catcher divided into two groups and set off before dawn to two nearby towns. , inquire about news about Li Yu.

***

Ruyi and Jixiang rushed to Kyoto separately.

Li Qing and Zhaocai arrived in a small town early the next morning. After checking around the town, there was still no news about Li Yu.

Zhaocai said to Li Qing: "Uncle, Ruyi and Jixiang went up the mountain road and did not look back to chase us. I guess the mountain road they went to is the direction in which the thieves fled. We think we should go back and take a look."

After hearing this, Li Qing thought for a moment, nodded and said, "Okay, let's go back first to see if Captain Leng and the others have found it, and then we can make plans."

After discussing it, the two turned around and walked back. Halfway down the road, they met the cold capture leader and his party who turned around. Seeing that they couldn't find any useful information, they had to turn around and walk back.

***

Ruyi had just arrived at the city gate on horseback. Little Loach and Maodou who were guarding the city gate saw Ruyi riding a horse galloping towards the city gate from a distance. They ran forward happily. When they saw that Ruyi was alone, their eyes darkened. .

When Ruyi arrived in front of the two of them, Little Loach looked at Ruyi, "Uncle Yi, have you found your wife?"

"Found it." Ruyi looked at the two of them with a smile. The two jumped eight feet high with joy and stretched out their hands to Ruyi, "Uncle Yi, let's go back quickly and tell the master the news."

Ruyi nodded, pulled the two of them onto their horses, sat down, and rushed to Zhou Mansion.

***

Ruyi and Little Loach stopped their horses at the door of their house. Little Loach and Edouard jumped off their horses and ran towards the house.

Maodou said to Uncle Liu who was looking at them: "Uncle Liu, Madam is fine. Madam also killed those robbers."

"Okay, okay, go and tell the master." Liu Bo ran towards Ruyi and took the reins.

Smiling and chanting, "Just be safe, be safe."

Ruyi smiled and said, "Yes, it's good to be safe."

Little Loach and Maodou rushed outside the study and shouted to Zhou Jia: "Master, I found my wife, Uncle Yi is back..."

Zhou Jia rushed out of the study and saw Ruyi striding in alone. She looked at Ruyi and asked, "Where's Madam?"

"Madam is in Liangjia Village in Shanyang County..." This is the letter from Madam to you. Ruyi took the letter out of his pocket and handed it to Zhou Jia.

Seeing Ruyi's tired look, Zhou Jia nodded and said, "Okay, you go eat something first and take a rest." Ruyi responded and stepped back.

Zhou Jia eagerly opened the letter. After reading what Li Yu wrote about the tragedy discovered in Liangjia Village, he was so angry that he clapped his hands on the table, "In this bright world, under the emperor's feet, such a tragedy could happen."

"Little Loach told Ruyi that I would go to the palace." Zhou Jia said and walked quickly outside.

"Yes, sir." The little loach turned and ran towards the kitchen.

Zhou Jia entered the palace and saw Chu Yuhao. He bowed and saluted: "Your Majesty, my wife was kidnapped by the driver of my family yesterday. She pretended not to know and was kidnapped by him to Liangjia Village in Shanyang County. The steward of the family found her at the North City Gate... …, following her all the way..., my wife asked the steward at home to bring back a letter, which contains what my wife saw and heard in Liangjia Village, which is really outrageous.”

Chu Yuhao looked at Zhou Jia in surprise, "Mrs. Li has been kidnapped. Please hand over the letter quickly."

The chamberlain took the letter from Zhou Jia and handed it over with a bow. Chu Yuhao read Li Yu's letter at a glance, what she saw and heard in Liangjiacun, what she planned to do next, and her request to Kyoto. Cooperation requirements.

Chu Yuhao looked at the letter in his hand in disbelief. He never dreamed that such a tragedy would happen in Shanyang County at the foot of the Emperor.

Those people were so bold, they dared to fabricate that there was a plague in the village and massacred the people in the village, leaving the women to watch their loved ones die...

After more than ten years, no one has discovered that a large number of weapons have been hoarded in Zhuangzi. Who else would dare to do such a thing except Lao Er, who is still alive and dead.

Chu Yuhao turned his head and glanced at the chamberlain, "Xuan Chu Sihai is entering the palace." The chamberlain bowed and stepped back.

Chu Yuhao said to Zhou Jia: "Go to Dali Temple and find out who the magistrate of Shanyang County was ten years ago and where he is serving now. Then check who the magistrate of Shanyang County is now."

"Yes, Your Majesty." Zhou Jia bowed and retreated.

In less than half an hour, Chu Sihai entered the palace, and Chu Yuhao told him what Li Yu had discovered.

He began to issue a series of orders, "Immediately send people to Beicheng to meet Jixiang of the Zhou Mansion, and ask them to keep an eye on Beicheng for me. Then send people to Shanyang County to monitor the Shanyang County magistrate, and step up the investigation of those in Kyoto and those who Surveillance on the second prince and his concubine, and carefully check who they have come into contact with, and whether anyone has left Kyoto to live somewhere else after the second son disappeared. We also need to send someone to Liangjiacun to protect Mrs. Li."

After receiving the order, Chu Sihai left the palace gate and told Ding Yi: "Hurry up and take people to Beicheng to meet Jixiang."

After Ding Yi left, Chu Sihai returned to the bank and sent people to Shanyang County to keep an eye on the eldest prince, second prince and noble concubine.

Zhou Jia quickly found out that the county magistrate ten years ago had been dismissed from his post and was investigated for investigation. On the way back to his hometown, he encountered bandits and had his entire family wiped out. He took the file back to the palace to report to Chu Yuhao.

Chu Yuhao looked at the file submitted by Zhou Jia and sneered: "When the bandits were wiped out, it was obvious that they were silenced. Some people believed such deceptive lies and even ordered the case to be closed."

Zhou Jia bowed and said: "Your Majesty, you had not succeeded to the throne at that time. You also know how the people below were doing things at that time."

Chu Yuhao remembered that in Kyoto at that time, the world was dominated by concubines, mothers and their children. Even his own dignified royal son had to flee to Tongzhou.

The people who work below all act based on their color. It’s not surprising that something like this happens.
