What Jia Zhu encounters is indeed more important than Lian Er's face, and may even be a matter of life and death!
After sending the messenger to rest, Lian Er looked worried.
Seeing that Wang Xifeng looked wrong, he understood what was going on after a moment's thought, so he had to explain patiently.
There are many local powerful people who are bold and reckless. Once the government touches their interests, they even have the courage to kill officials secretly.
"No way?"
Wang Xifeng was shocked. No matter how daring she was, she had never thought of killing an official as a taboo thing.
"Why not?"
Lian Er said in a deep voice: "Brother Zhu seems to be a bit too much this time!"
"We don't have enough manpower. If we were attacked in the village where the accident occurred, and then threw the body into a remote mountain forest, who would be able to detect it?"
"No, I have to take someone over immediately to take a look, but be sure nothing happens!"
The more Lian Er thought about it, the more worried he became, fearing that something might happen to Jia Zhu and that he would not be able to explain.
"Second Master, if Brother Zhu really has an accident, wouldn't it be a good thing for Dafang?"
Wang Xifeng had a different view, and her tone of voice had traces of a house fight.
"My second grandma, please don't cause trouble at this time!"
Lian Er rolled his eyes angrily and said helplessly: "If you really think so, I will never have a peaceful life in the future!"
"The second house has Brother Zhu. The second master and the second aunt put most of their thoughts on him. They only want Brother Zhu to be the pillar of the second house!"
"Once he has an accident, the second wife can only put all her thoughts and resources on Baoyu!"
"But you don't know what kind of temper Baoyu is?"
"Let's put it this way, if Baoyu doesn't change his mind, he will be a wealthy idler at best in the future!"
"It is precisely because Baoyu seems unable to handle the situation that he is in real trouble!"
"Think about it, what will the second aunt do to protect Baoyu's future life and status in Rongfu?"
"They must be madly suppressing me, the legitimate son of the eldest family, and they even want to kill me before they stop, just so that Baoyu can inherit the title of the mansion!"
"No way!"
Lian Er's words were so shocking that Wang Xifeng didn't believe it.
"Hmph, if something happens to me suddenly and I can't inherit the resources of the big house, what will you do?"
Lian Er smiled lightly and said, "I'm afraid I'm going to kill brother Cong immediately!"
Wang Xifeng was silent for a moment. This was indeed what she had in mind just now.
"Haha, just think about it. Brother Zhu must not let anything happen to him right now!"
Lian Er said solemnly: "Even if something happens, we have to wait until the first and second bedrooms are completely separated, otherwise I won't be able to get over it!"
After saying that, he told Wang Xifeng to take care of the pregnancy and stop messing around.
He knew that she had been wronged about what happened on the dock, but he really had no time to care about it at the moment.
Moreover, if you want to regain your position, it is not enough to rely on the state government alone. You must rely on the power of the Ning Mansion.
There are some things that I can’t explain right now, and I really can’t be in a hurry!
After saying this, he hurriedly left with his men.
There were some things he didn't tell Wang Xifeng.
There are too many bold and reckless people in the local area. Not only the local powerful people, but also the officials in the yamen are not good people.
When he was working in the Ministry of Revenue, he heard a quite shocking and shocking official secret.
One year, a new Jinshi came to serve as a local official. He wanted to do something with his passion, but ended up offending the interests of the county officials.
The officials are not simple. They have been county government officials for generations. The entire family has been operating in the county government for hundreds of years. It can be said that the intricate connections and energy are amazing.
If the new county master wants to do something, he must first break the interest network woven by the officials, that is, remove the foundation of his power. Is that okay?
As a result, the pawnbroker dug a hole and put the new county man in jail, and then he was "fearful of committing suicide."
The most outrageous thing is that the pian also played with the wife of the official, and then directly sold her to a brothel and tortured her until she died.
The fate of the children of that unlucky official was also quite tragic.
If it hadn't been for later, when the pian's son provoked someone who couldn't be offended, and the entire family was wiped out, these things would have been suddenly exposed, causing quite a shock in the officialdom.
Especially those officials who came from the imperial examination seemed to have been greatly stimulated, and their reactions to this matter were quite violent.
I heard that for a period of time, local officials were thoroughly cleaned up, and many old cases were indeed cleared up.
Among them, many of the officials who were dismissed from their posts were closely related to the officials in the yamen.
Lian Er was worried that it would be bad if Jia Zhu was young and energetic and fell into the trap of government officials and local powerful people.
Just in case, he brought enough people with him when he went out.
There were not only official officials from the yamen, but also more guards brought from the mansion. Among them, the guards from the Ning mansion were the most elite and were more trusted by him.
When acting in the local area, it is not enough to just pretend to be a fox or a tiger. You must have real skills, otherwise life will be very difficult.
At the same time, he also sent a messenger to deliver the news back to Rongfu and Ningfu.
No matter what, getting vaccinated in advance is a necessary operation for him.
Eager in his heart, the group traveled very fast and rushed all the way to the county government office below. Lian Er met the anxious Li Wan.
His heart sank when he learned that Jia Zhu had not come back yet.
"Sister-in-law, don't worry, I will take someone over to find Brother Zhu right now!"
I glanced at the sky that was about to turn dark, and although I felt a little uneasy, I couldn't care less at the moment.
Find the county magistrate who stayed behind at the county government office and ask him to lead a team to the village where the accident occurred.
Facing the cold-eyed Lian Er, the county magistrate didn't dare to let go of anything, so he had to rush on the night together with a look of bitterness on his face.
"Don't worry, Sir, nothing will happen to the County Magistrate!"
As they were on their way, the county magistrate, who was already quite old, vowed: "The lower officials in that village also know about it. Although they act quite unruly, they don't have the guts to confront the officials directly!"
"I hope so!"
Lian Er's tone was cold: "If something happens to my cousin, not only will that village suffer a devastating blow, but everyone in the yamen will also have to be prepared to be exiled for three thousand miles!"
These words frightened the county magistrate and the Yamen officials who followed him, and their faces turned pale.
When the group arrived at the village along the poor dirt road, they happened to hear a woman and child wailing shrilly, which was extremely shocking in the middle of the night.
At the central ancestral hall of the village, a row of torches illuminated the surrounding area.
Many young adults gathered around the ancestral hall, and the cries of women and children came from the ancestral hall.
