After a while, all the men in black who besieged Zhuangzi were wiped out. Hu Cheng climbed off the roof, jumped off the wall with his secret guards, and saw the torches dropped by the men in black in the field.

Hu Cheng kicked the man in black on the ground and pulled out the arrows from his body. "Brothers, check to see if there are any left alive. Touch them carefully and search for anything suspicious."

"Yes." The secret guards responded in unison and began to check carefully.

Li Yu and Ji Xiang also arrived. Hu Cheng pointed to the torches and said to Li Yu, "Madam, look at these torches. These people are here to burn Zhuangzi down."

Li Yu saw the torches collected by Hu Cheng and others and felt that these people were acting very ruthlessly.

"Well! It seems that they already know that this place has been exposed. They are not willing to let those things fall into the hands of the imperial court. There is no point in staying here." Li Yu looked at Hu Cheng and said, "Hu Cheng, you can send another person back after daybreak. Let’s go to the city and ask the Yamen to send two doctors who are proficient in gynecology to diagnose and treat the injured women and put them in good care. Let’s go back to the city!”

"Yes." Hu Cheng bowed and responded.

At this time, Alian and Yang Liu were also awakened and ran outside the house. They looked in horror at the secret guards in black, dragging the bodies of the men in black to the thatched hut behind the village.

Seeing Li Yu's expression of worry and fear, they were afraid that the peaceful life they had finally achieved would be gone, and they were afraid that they would once again become the victims of those evil thieves.

Alian looked at Li Yu uneasily, "Mrs. Li, those evil thieves are really here, and they want to kill us all!"

Li Yu comforted them in a gentle voice, "You don't have to be afraid. These thieves are here for the food in Zhuangzi. They are not willing to leave the food for us. Once the Yamen takes away the food, those people will not come again."

After listening to Li Yu's words, Alian and Yang Liu thought about it. With so much food, they could feed them for a lifetime, so how could those evil thieves be willing to give it to others for free.

Sanqiao begged Li Yu and said, "Mrs. Li, please tell the people in the government to catch those evil thieves as soon as possible. I'm afraid they will come again after you leave."

Li Yu nodded and said: "Okay, I will tell them to send more manpower to catch those evil thieves as soon as possible. It is still early and you will have to work early tomorrow morning and then go to sleep for a while."

Alian nodded, "Sisters, Mrs. Li will help us. We have to work tomorrow, so let's go back first so as not to delay Mrs. Li and the others."

"Yes! Go back! We can't help."

Hu Cheng waited for the women to return to the yard and said to Li Yu: "Mrs. Li, those people are very cunning. We have only caught a few of them after so many years. Our big shopkeeper has been running around all these years just for these bitches." .”

Ji Xiang said indignantly: "These people act viciously and have no sense of morality at all. Just look at the people who died in vain in Liangjiacun."

Hu Cheng smiled and nodded, "That's what Manager Zhou said, Manager Zhou, last time I was in Yunzhou, I found that Brother Yi and Brother Cai were both good in kung fu. I didn't expect that you are not inferior in kung fu, especially my wife's. Even us All the big shopkeepers praised me."

"Of course." Ji Xiang replied proudly. Hu Cheng and Ji Xiang chatted lively.

Li Yu glanced at Hu Cheng and thought of Yunyi, the secret guard in Tongzhou. He felt that these secret guards under Chu Sihai were either talkative or tired of saying even one more word.

After cleaning the battlefield, Li Yu and Ji Xiang returned to the courtyard to rest, while Hu Cheng and his secret guards hid around Zhuangzi again.

Li Yu was lying on the bed, thinking that since the second prince had prepared a large number of weapons in Zhuangzi, they must be used to regain the imperial power. He also transferred a large number of people away, and they should be training somewhere.

Thinking back to what Chi Zhuangtou had confessed, he still felt that he still had something to say. Li Yu thought of the second prince's group and knew that he was the one who helped Chu Yuhao in the first place, and felt that they would not let it go.

I felt that there should be these gangsters' dens in the nearby mountain ridges, so I decided to go back and see Chu Sihai, asking him to retrial Chi Zhuangtou, and send people to Tongfu Inn and the nearby deep mountains and old forests to investigate.

***

The secret guards sent by Hu Cheng entered the city as soon as the city gate opened, returned to the backyard of the bank, met Chu Sihai, and conveyed Li Yu's words to him.

After hearing this, Chu Sihai hurriedly went to the palace to report that Jixiang was ambushed and Lao Lin was killed. After hearing this, Chu Yuhao ordered Chu Sihai to send an order to dispatch manpower from Jingzhao Yamen to Liangjiacun to resettle the women, and bring enough manpower to take care of the women. The weapons were pulled back and the current magistrate of Shanyang County was immediately taken back to Kyoto for trial.

After receiving the order, Chu Sihai left the palace to arrange manpower.

At dawn, Ruyi grabbed the purchased cloth, bedding, mosquito nets, and some household items, and rushed towards Liangjia Village. After leaving the city, he reached a fork in the road and entered the mountain road.

Not long after they went up the mountain road, a group of carriages and horses followed. Ruyi turned around and saw the first carriage. Shen Zhong was sitting on the carriage, and the driver was a man who looked very loyal.

Shen Zhong smiled and said, "What a coincidence! I am in charge."

Ruyi stopped the car with a smile. Shen Zhong jumped off the carriage, walked to Ruyi's car with a smile, jumped on and sat on the citron.

When Shen Zhong saw Ruyi pulling a cart full of things and wrapping them in oilcloth, he smiled and said, "Guan Yi, what are you pulling a cart of?"

Ruyi smiled and said, "My wife asked me to buy bedding, mosquito nets, cloth and some household items for the women in Liangjia Village."

After hearing this, Shen Zhong nodded and said, "Mrs. Li is the one who sincerely does good deeds regardless of fame or fortune."

"Yes!" Ruyi smiled and nodded, then looked back at the carriages and horses behind her, "General Shen, what are you doing in Liangjiacun?"

"The officials from the Yamen went to deal with the affairs of Liangjiacun. His Majesty also sent two imperial doctors to Liangjiacun to treat the women." Shen Zhong said.

Thinking of the sallow-faced women in Liangjiacun, Ruyi praised: "Your Majesty is kind, it is indeed not easy for those people in Liangjiacun to survive until the day of reconstruction."

Shen Zhong also sighed in his heart, "Yes! No one expected that in this peaceful and prosperous age, such heinous evil deeds would happen."

Ruyi slandered that the person who did such a thing was a member of the royal family, otherwise who would have the ability to conceal it with one hand.

"General Shen, have you discovered anything?"

Shen Zhong whispered: "No abnormalities have been found so far. People have been sent out. The big shopkeeper asked me to take those people who caught Mrs. Li back to Kyoto for interrogation."

"Yes, especially the one surnamed Lin. He killed Uncle Lin's coachman at some point without anyone noticing. The abilities of these people are really extraordinary."

Shen Zhong was convinced by Ruyi's words. When the Five Stones case was solved, the woman on Guihua Street seemed to appear out of thin air. Until now, no one has been found to contact the woman. Prince Fu's new princess is still in jail. In prison, people have become crazy.
