After the man hurriedly shouted this, there was a silence in the cabin.

Wei Yuanchen stood there with his hands behind his back and said nothing.

The man continued, "Sir, I am a villain. I was deceived into taking a pleasure boat to protect the courtyard. Nothing on the pleasure boat has to do with the villain.

The weapon I asked me to take on was also brought by the manager, but I have never used it before. I saw the girl on the boat fall into the water, and I jumped out of the boat to save people...

In the lake, these two officials came to take me. I thought they were bandits, so I had to struggle hard. Later I found out that it was someone from the yamen who came to ask questions.

I don’t understand what the adult said, what doctors, the people in the mountains... The matter on the flower boat has nothing to do with me. There is another great manager in this pleasure boat. I know where the great manager is, so I can take the official to find it."

After saying that, the man knelt down and kept kowtowing: "My lord, every word of the small is true."

Wei Yuanchen listened to the man saying these words, without saying a word, and walked towards the bow of the boat. The man was also lifted up and left to Wei Yuanchen. The scene on the pleasure boat and the big boat could be seen where the two were.

At this moment, there was noisy around the boat, some people shouted and ran around, some people fought together, and the same was true on the lake.

Wei Yuanchen remained silent, and the boat hid in the dark like a spectator.

Wei Yuanchen's personal guard came to report: "Sir, there are many more guards from the Ding family coming on the pleasure boat, stopping our people and not allowing us to leave."

"How many guards are there in the Ding family?" Wei Yuanchen asked lightly.

"There are dozens of people on the boat," said Qinwei, "there are also ambushing people around."

Wei Yuanchen said: "It seems that they are bound to win tonight. No matter who comes, they will be left behind."

The guard continued: "In addition, the Ding family also packed gold, silver and wealth into packages and threw them into the lake, just like they accidentally fell down while fighting for wealth."

"This is what everyone is getting caught. Once you are arrested, no matter how you defend yourself, it will be useless." Wei Yuanchen raised his head and looked at the bright moon, "Is there any movement in the Taiyuan Government Office?"

The personal guard reported: "There is a yamen coming here, but the Taiyuan Prefect and Dingning Hou took away a lot of people when they left the city. The Taiyuan Prefecture Office had already asked the yamen for help."

Wei Yuanchen nodded: "Before the government comes, please tell them not to be captured. When everyone is here, I will see how they wronged me as bandits."

The guard responded and turned around and left the boat.

Chujiu presented a cup of tea. Wei Yuanchen took it and took a sip. The tea was sweet and sweet, like the breeze whirling on the lake, which swept across his wet robe.

Nie Chen looked at Lord Wei. Lord Wei was a relative of the foreigner. Such a rich child should be delicate and precious. How could he bear the slightest grievance? Lord Wei didn't care, but it was obvious that Lord Wei was not a person who wanted to enjoy himself.

The Ding family colluded with the government to set up such a strict and stern situation, which required everyone's network to be seen clearly by Lord Wei, and few people could match such a mind.

Perhaps Lord Wei can really find out this case. It is precisely because he saw through this that the elder is willing to give the clues to Lord Wei.

The darker the eyes are, the little bit of light will become a beacon.

Just like the last hope in desperate situations.

Nie Chen stood next to Wei Yuanchen and suddenly felt like he was expressing all his thoughts. He couldn't help but feel shocked. He had been a detective for many years. In order to find out the case, he often cliched the criminals and asked for trial in private, and knew the importance of controlling people's hearts. Before he knew it, his emotions were always influenced by Lord Wei.

Lord Wei did not continue to interrogate the man, as if he had forgotten the man, but took the man to see everything in front of him.

Because in Lord Wei's mind, that person does not need to be tried at all.

Lord Wei doesn't have to listen to the man's words of excuses. Just tell the man what he wants to do. He wants to break through the dilemma of Taiyuan Prefecture and save those innocent people from water and fire.

If that person has a little conscience, he will tell all the inside story he knows. If he is not moved by it, it will be useless to ask that person.

The sound of footsteps came from the shore, and it was obvious that the yamen officer had arrived.

Wei Yuanchen handed the teacup to Chujiu and said lightly: "When did you cover the sky with your hand? Ten thousand people have to say it."

This sentence is usually quoted by officials from this dynasty who impeach Shangguan.

The man knelt next to Wei Yuanchen and his whole body shook when he heard this.

Nie Chen looked away. The man had been completely suppressed by Lord Wei, and he would tell the truth sooner or later.

Lord Wei obviously noticed the change of that person: "Yan Hao was also a man who asked for the people and impeached Shangguan."

The man shook even harder and his head drooped lower and lower.

"Where is Yan Hao?" Wei Yuanchen said.

"He... deserves to die," the man's breath is unstable, "It's better to die seven years ago, so that he won't make such an unforgivable big mistake.

How many people died in vain? He...he is an accomplice."

The man suddenly started to cry after saying that.

Wei Yuanchen held a lamp and shone on the man's face. He saw several scars on it, his jawbone collapsed, and his face looked extremely distorted.

"You are Yan Hao, the undead Yan Hao."

As soon as Wei Yuanchen finished speaking, a boat approached, and then several people walked down from the boat. Zi Yuan was walking behind. Zi Yuan bowed to Wei Yuanchen and immediately went to see the man.

"Don't hide, look at me, you...you are Yan Lang...you are not dead..."

"Yan Lang, you are not dead... and you have been on this boat all the time. Why didn't you tell me earlier?"

Zi Yuan said as she was about to touch the scar on Yan Hao's face: "Who made you like this?"

"Sir," Yan Hao avoided Zi Yuan. "I burned Ao Cang, who stored disaster relief grain back then, and I also robbed the kuyin of Taiyuan Prefecture. Then... Prefect Wang did not commit suicide for fear of crime, but I strangled him to death with my own hands, because I knew that as long as Prefect Wang died, no one would cover up those greedy cases for him, and the accomplices of the Prefect Wang would be wiped out."

Zi Yuan exclaimed.

Yan Hao continued: "I am willing to go to prison to admit my crime."

He fell off the cliff and was saved by others, and from then on another road.

He used the "Pearl Thieves" to eliminate the prefect Wang and others. He once thought that he had done a good thing to eliminate harm to the people, and even if he paid a small price, it would be worth it.

Later, his path became more and more deviant, but he was unable to change it.

A cold voice came: "When the Prime Minister Wang died, why did you open the Tieshan privately and force the people to quarret for you? Your move is also for the sake of the people?"

Yan Hao swallowed: "I... really thought at first, but then..." Later he found that he could not help himself.

The person who used him was not only meticulous but also ruthless, but he did not hesitate to frame the people in order to cover up everything.

When Yan Hao heard that Lord Wei would come to Taiyuan Prefecture to investigate this case, he had the idea of ​​revealing everything in front of Lord Wei, but... it was too difficult. Lord Wei was so young, could he find out everything?

Even if he said that, Lord Wei may not believe it. After all, he was the one who committed the case back then.

"Sir, the prefect of Taiyuan Prefecture Han Yu and Dingning Hou brought their men back to the city."

Wei Yuanchen nodded when he heard the personal guard's report. It seems that Lu Shenzhi persuaded the people in the mountains. Otherwise, if the people do something, they will definitely be targeted by Cui Zhen. Now they are in a hurry to come here to check the situation, which just shows that the mountains are calm.

He asked Lu Shenzhi to disguise himself and go out of the city, firstly to let Lu Shenzhi persuade the people in the mountains, and secondly, he wanted to make the illusion that Lu Shenzhi and the people had been deceived, otherwise how could he see the movements of the Taiyuan Prefecture Office clearly?

If the Taiyuan Prefecture Office could do its best to catch robbers every time they caught robbers, they would have had a result.

Wei Yuanchen said: "You want those iron ores to be useless, where will the iron you extracted be sent?"

Yan Hao shook his head: "There is a Mr. Jiang in the mountains to arrange everything. We just focus on quarrying and smelting iron. I have not fully understood the situation, but someone in Taiyuan Prefecture will inevitably respond."

"Maybe you have another chance," Wei Yuanchen's voice came, "No matter whether you live or die, you can at least raise your head."

Yan Hao subconsciously looked at Wei Yuanchen, his eyes full of desire. At that time, Shanxi was famine and many people were starved to death. Mr. Jiang said that instead of waiting for the court to provide relief, it was better to find a way out for himself and lead the people to quarry and smelify iron. The money sold was enough for the people to eat and wear. He thought this was a way out, but he did not expect... those people enslaved the people and did not care about their lives and deaths for the sake of ore. Anyone who resisted was killed.

Someone who reported the news would be severely punished. The entire Taiyuan Prefecture was tightly surrounded by them, like a piece of iron plate, until Mr. Jiang received the news that someone was coming to Shanxi to investigate the case.

"Help me catch those people," Wei Yuanchen said, "Even if you die, you can be considered dead."

Yan Hao rushed into his chest with a burst of blood, and his heart suddenly jumped.

...

"Those bandits are on the boat." Yamashi reported to Han Yu panting.

Cui Zhen looked at the pleasure boat not far away, and from a distance, there was still panic on the pleasure boat.

"Mr. Marquis," said Han Yu, "Let's go over immediately and don't let the bandits escape again. If someone can get the stolen goods, the case will be considered progress."

Cui Zhen nodded.

Han Yu showed a cautious and gratifying expression on his face: "Thanks to the fast movement of the ward, otherwise they would succeed again."

Feng Anping wiped sweat from his forehead, and ran around with the prefect and Dingning Hou that night, but he didn't know what would happen.

But he vaguely felt that the case should not be so simple.

If the prefect and Dingning Hou found out, where will the Lord Wei of his family be placed?

No, definitely not. There must be something strange about this matter. He also expects Lord Wei to take him to make contributions. Otherwise, wouldn’t he have bribed so much beef for nothing? Although the beef has been put into the belly of a chicken, it is also a bribe.
