Chapter 210(1/2)

Interrogating the alum and tracing the whereabouts of money was a major event in the city. Song Ruoxi, as the young lady, couldn't get involved, but some people didn't think so. On the third day after the alum was imprisoned, Ming entered the city without wiping tears while still in the confinement period, and did not go to Zhongyuan, but went straight to Dongyuan.

At the gate of Dongyuan, Ming was stopped by the guards, with his eyes wide open and he said sternly: "Get out of the way, I order you to get out of the way."

"Please forgive my second wife, but I cannot obey my humble duties." The guard held the spear tightly and said with a expressionless face.

"You bastards who are looking down on others, let go." Ming cursed and rushed in desperately.

"Mrs. Ming Er asked him to go back, so he would not be embarrassed." The four guards blocked the door and remained unmoved.

Ming's heart was furious, and he slapped one of the guards twice, "Get out!"

The guards did not dare to stop her, so they had to ask the maid to come forward and pull her. The maids brought by Mingshi were all her confidants. Not only did they not pull her, they also helped her break into the garden.

Ming lowered his head, ran into the garden from the gap between the guards, lifted his skirt and ran towards Shuyuyuan. He met several maids on the way, and the guard chasing behind him hurriedly shouted: "Stop Mrs. Ming Er quickly, don't let her break in and scare the young lady."

When the maids heard this, they quickly opened their arms and stepped forward to stop Ming.

Seeing that everyone surrounded her, Mingshi was anxious and angry, and her eyes turned red. She suddenly pulled out the golden hairpin from her head and pressed it against her neck. She used too much force. The sharp hairpin tail pierced the white and tender skin and blood flowed out, "Get out of the way, you get out of the way. If you dare to stop it again, I will die in front of you."

Looking at the crazy Ming family, everyone was stunned. This woman could not stop her from going crazy.

Song Ruoxi was helping the green sleeves to dry the petals in the yard. Suddenly, he heard a loud noise outside, mixed with the screams of the maid, frowned in confusion, "Go and see what's going on? Who is causing trouble outside?"

Xiangduo agreed, walked out quickly, turned around and came back, "Mrs. Young Madam, it was Mrs. Ming Er. She went crazy and pressed her golden hairpin against her neck and broke in. No one dared to stop her."

As soon as he finished speaking, Ming rushed in with a ferocious look on his face. The blood on his neck dripped on his clothes, spots and spots, which was shocking.

Canniang and others immediately stopped Song Ruoxi, and Ouyang angrily scolded: "Mrs. Ming, Dongyuan is not a place where you can be presumptuous..."

"My brother and sister, for the sake of my loss of children last time, please help me and save my father! My father was framed and wronged." Ming cried.

When Song Ruoxi saw her urging her to repay her favor, she felt funny. She put down the jade mill in her hand and stood up and said, "Second sister-in-law, the city lord is the city lord. As for whether Ling Zun was framed and wronged, we will know after the interrogation. The city lord has always been wise and fair. If Ling Zun had not done it, the city lord will definitely restore his innocence. Now the case is still under investigation, and the right and wrong are still uncertain. The second sister-in-law is just clamoring, what are you going to do if you want to die?"

Ming was stunned. She thought Song Ruoxi would care about her kindness and promised her to speak in front of Ye Shuhua. With Ye Shuhua's attention to Song Ruoxi, Ye Shuhua would definitely leave his subordinates to ask for help. Unexpectedly, Song Ruoxi's attitude was different from what she expected.

While Ming was stunned, Song Ruoxi gave a wink to the silkworm mother. The silkworm mother understood and quickly stepped forward, twisted Ming's hand. Ming was in pain, and the golden hairpin in her hand fell to the ground.

"How do you serve?" Ouyang looked at Ming's maids coldly, "The second wife is still in the confinement period, so she ran out to have a breath. If there is anything, can you bear it? Why don't you wait for the second wife to return to her house to recuperate?"

The maids hesitated.

Song Ruoxi curled his lips and sneered, "Come on, send the second wife out."

Xiangxiu and Qinghe stepped forward, raised Ming and walked out.

"I won't leave, I won't leave." Ming's feet kicked around and struggled non-stop.

"Are you crazy? If you don't rest at home, why are you here to make a fuss?" A stern shout came.

Song Ruoxi looked up and saw that Ye Xiaoshun rushed over after hearing the news.

"Husband." Tears burst into tears in Ming's eyes.

Ye Xiaoshu ignored her, bowed to Song Ruoxi, and said apologetically: "I'm sorry, I'm disturbed. I'll bother you. Please forgive me. Don't care about her rude behavior."

"My sister-in-law is also full of sincerity and filial piety. She is worried about her father in prison, so she is like this. I understand." Song Ruoxi smiled softly, but she only understood, but did not express her understanding.

Ye Xiaoshun's eyes flashed for a moment, and he didn't say anything more. He took Ming away and met Ye Shuhua who was rushing towards him with his light skills at the door. "Brother Hua..."

Ye Shuhua turned a deaf ear to him, and passed by them like a whirlwind, rushed into the yard, and saw Song Ruoxi standing under the corridor, looking as usual, and breathing a sigh of relief, "Yingying."

"Hey, why are you back?" Song Ruoxi asked in surprise.

"I'm worried that my second sister-in-law will hit you." Ye Shuhua walked over and looked at her up and down, "Are you scared?"

"Do you think I'm so brave, can this scare me?" Song Ruoxi gave him a coquettish look, "Besides, can she still let her do whatever she wants with so many people in the yard?"

Ye Shuhua's face turned slightly red and said, "It's good that it's okay, then I'll go back to Zhongyong Hall to discuss matters first."

"Yes." Song Ruoxi nodded with a smile.

Ye Shuhua turned around and went out, worried that Ming would come again to go crazy, so he ordered the guards to guard the Yuanmen and summoned people from Ziyan Camp in the dark, "No matter who dares to trespass into the Dongyuan, they will be chopped and thrown out, so that they don't disturb the young lady."

"Yes, the young city lord."

Ming broke into the East Garden and had such a quarrel, but it was useless. Ye Fan scolded Mrs. Li. She was so angry that she was worried that something would cause alum to pull out the carrot and bring out the mud, and she gritted her teeth in the room and cursed in a low voice: "This stupid woman has failed to succeed and has more trouble."

On that night, dozens of men in black visited the prison in the city at night, intending to rob the prison, but failed and were repelled by the people from the Dark Hunting Camp.

The next day, Ye Fan received the news that someone had robbed the prison, and also received a secret message that there was a secret house 90 miles outside the city, with killers raising someone inside. There were originally three thousand people, but now there were about five hundred people. They were all very powerful martial arts and cruel. They were all deadly soldiers, and they also had deadly poisons around them. If they were captured accidentally, they would commit suicide without leaving any trace.

The owner of the house was named You, and Ming Aun's legitimate wife was named You. Ming Aun was a businessman who spent a lot of money to raise a killer, and his intention was to be punished!

"Abandon them, no one is allowed to stay." Ye Fan ordered coldly.

The night is dark, with no stars or moon, and everything inside and outside the city is silent.

A black shadow stopped outside Wenlan Pavilion, "City Lord, Bei Zhi is back to report."

"How is the matter done?" Ye Fan asked.

"All five hundred and ten dead soldiers were poisoned and died. They were the same weapons used by the two groups of people who ambushed the Young City Lord that day and assassinated the Young City Lord in Amitabha Temple, and the same weapons used by the group of people who went to the prison last night."

"Ba." The teacup in Ye Fan's hand was pinched into pieces. "Don't tell the young city lord about this for the time being, and send someone to keep an eye on Ye's filial piety."

"Yes, the city lord." The man in black flashed and disappeared.

The candlelight in Wenlan Pavilion is lit until dawn.

Ye Shuhua did not deliberately conceal Song Ruoxi about the progress of the alum case. A few days later, the alum's confidant could not stand the heavy punishment and confessed several officials who accepted bribes.

What is shocking is that Ye Fan relies heavily on Wenshu, which is also among them.

Immediately afterwards, a secret letter was sent to Ye Shuhua, which listed how many bribes Wen Hua had received, as well as what he had done with seducing alum, as well as some private conversations. He said it would be fine if he had arrived, but he said that Ye Shuhua was a short-lived ghost and would die young, and so on.

If you don’t think about it in depth, just look at the evidence on the surface. Wen Zhu just accepted bribes, used his power for personal gain, and did things inappropriately. But if you think about it deeper, especially Ye Fan remembered that it was Wen Zhu who convinced him to let Ye Shuhua and Song Ruoxi go to Amitabha Temple to attend the Dharma Assembly.

Is the assassination of Amitabha Temple related to Wen Zhu? He just colluded with alumni, protected by officials and businessmen, manipulated grain prices in various places, made huge profits, or participated in Ye's filial piety, and after killing Ye Shuhua, he would support Ye's filial piety and rise to power?

Ye Fan was very furious and immediately ordered Wen Xu to be imprisoned. In addition to Wen Xu, other officials who had been bribed were also imprisoned. Their residences were sealed and their families were imprisoned in the yard and were not allowed to go out.

After the failure of the prison robbery, Ye Xiaosun was in panic all day long. After Wen Qian was confessed, he knew that the situation was hopeless, but he couldn't figure out why the matter was exposed so quickly?

It took Wen Zhuo a lot of time to interrogate Wen Shuhua. It was already midnight. He went to bed with his hands and feet. Looking at Song Ruoxi who was sleeping soundly, the irritability in his eyes disappeared. A gentle smile appeared on his lips, and a kiss was printed on her white cheeks. He hugged her soft and warm body, relaxed, closed his eyes, and fell asleep peacefully.

It was getting dark, and Song Ruoxi woke up. He used to touch the side. He touched the soft quilt. He didn't touch anyone. He stood up and lifted the curtain. Seeing Ye Shuhua wearing a middle-clothed shirt standing by the window, he didn't know what he was thinking, he quietly got out of bed and walked to him.

Ye Shuhua heard the movement and looked at him sideways and smiled apologetically, "Have you woken up?"

Song Ruoxi smiled and shook her head, and asked softly: "But are you upset about the case?"

"No, I'm thinking about the flood season." Ye Shuhua reached out and hugged her. "When spring and summer intersect, the rivers in the two states of Luwen will flood, flooding the fields on both sides and causing disasters to the people."

"You can build river embankments to block flooded river water." Song Ruoxi didn't know how to control river water, but saw it on TV that every time there was a flood, he would build a dam, so he just said it casually.

Ye Shuhua sighed and said, "In recent years, my father sent several groups of officials to manage water and build river embankments, but they made a lot of money through the water control project. Those river embankments cannot withstand the impact of floods, and they flooded the flood every year, and flooded the water every year, which was exhausted and damaged the money but had no effect."

Song Ruoxi's eyes turned, "So this time, are you going to come here in person?"

"Fifth brother volunteered."

"Didn't my father agree?"

"My father asked me for my opinion."

Song Ruoxi raised his eyebrows gently, "Do you disagree?"

"My fifth brother told me that if he did this job well, he would ask his father to let Mrs. Binban come out of the alley."

"Mrs. Binban has been in the alley for several months and has been sick twice during this period. He wants her to come out, which is a good way."

"The method sounds good." Ye Shuhua looked complicated, "But my fifth brother would not go to control the water. When he and Guan discussed marriage, his father would let Mrs. Binban come out."

Song Ruoxi looked up at him, "Do you suspect he has other plans?"

"I don't want to doubt him, but my second brother..." Ye Shuhua didn't finish his words.

Song Ruoxi knew that Ye's filial piety was exposed, which made Ye Shuhua lose trust in his brothers and sisters even more. He reached out to stroke his furious eyebrows and said, "Everyone has ambitions. The position of the city lord is like a piece of fat. The second brother did not control his desires and wanted to fight for it, but this did not mean that the fifth brother could not control it. Instead of being suspicious of being a dark ghost, it would be better to let him expose himself in front of others. You find someone you trust to accompany him, and once you find out his bad behavior, it is not too late to get rid of him. If he really thinks that he just wants his biological mother to come out and be a filial son, then you will have a brother you can rely on. Why not do it?"

Ye Shuhua pondered for a moment, smiled relievedly, and said, "I know what to do."

After breakfast, Ye Shuhua went to Zhongyong Hall and asked Ye Fan to ask Ye Xiaoliang to control the water.

Ye Xiaoliang was extremely happy and knelt down on one knee to express his determination to Ye Fan.

Ye Fan looked at the youngest son kneeling in the hall with complicated eyes and said, "It's great that you have determination, but you promised me if you don't believe me. You can take the water control plan in the past two days. If it doesn't work, please change someone."

Ye Xiaoliang took out a note from his arms, presented it with both hands, and said, "My son has wiped the water treatment plan, please check it out."

Li Jicai went down and took the note and presented it to Yefan.

Ye Fan looked through it and said, "Shuhua, see, is this method feasible?"

Ye Shuhua took three steps forward, took the note, read it with a glance, and smiled and said, "My son thinks that the fifth brother's method is feasible."

"Look at it too." Ye Fan's face was gloomy for several days. Ye Shuhua was too thin. His five concubines finally had one to use for him.

The memorandum was passed on, and the officials also felt that the method was feasible.

Ye Fan said: "Your water control plan is approved by your father. If you do this well, it will be a great achievement. You can clean up and set off in three days."

"Yes, father." Ye Xiaoliang responded.

Ye Xiaoliang was not proud of this job and was arrogant. In the afternoon, he took the initiative to find Ye Shuhua, "Brother Hua, I'm going out for the first time to do business. I'm afraid of making mistakes, so I ask my brother to help me and give me some useful people to my brother."
