[Now that the strategy is gaining momentum, what does the host plan to do next? 】
Jiang Tang paused after hearing what the system said. Is the momentum good?
It’s clearly a sign of a storm!
She has not forgotten what the hero said last night. The next period will be very dangerous, so she should stay in the house and don't wander around unless there is nothing to do.
For someone as crazy as Xiao Yinhan, it would definitely not be a trivial matter for him to say such things.
Sure enough, three days later, a shocking scandal suddenly broke out in the city——
When the former eldest princess Xiao Ronghua was running the Dayu Salt Farm, she used it as a den for human trafficking!
In the back mountains of the Dayu Salt Factory, there are still hundreds of salt workers who have not had time to move, and these people are all ordinary people who have been illegally abducted!
As soon as the news came out, the whole city was in an uproar!
And some people have begun to vaguely realize that some time ago, the government suddenly launched a large-scale collection of missing persons information, perhaps just for this matter...
However, some people still can't believe it. In the past ten years, men have indeed disappeared near Dayu County. But the eldest princess is so rich, does she need to do such a heartless thing?
But soon, these people were slapped in the face——
A group of officers and soldiers with swords appeared in Dayu City and went straight to the salt field. Looking at the long line, there were at least 3,000 people!
Some common people who have seen the world said that the man in the lead was clearly dressed as an imperial envoy!
For a time, people in Dayu City were panicked, and everyone began to realize: Dayu's world is about to change! -
The imperial envoy led the officers and soldiers straight to the salt field, calmly took over the defense of the salt field from the palace guards, and then led the officers and soldiers to search the mountain directly.
Soon, they discovered a secret passage in the back hill of the salt farm. At the end of the secret passage was a huge cave, in which hundreds of people were imprisoned!
The officers and soldiers encountered strong resistance from the guards when they entered, but were quickly suppressed.
When the people in the cave were found, they were all skinny and dressed in rags. Even when they saw officers and soldiers coming in to rescue them, they just looked on numbly.
Some people have fallen ill and are huddled in the corner, as if they are about to lose the next moment.
Searching further in the cave, the officers and soldiers also found a deep pit in which the bodies of many dead salt workers were buried...
Because the weather in Dayu is warm, the corpse has already started to stink. If it were delayed for a few days, the people inside might be infected with the disease...
Only then did Jiang Tang realize that the magistrate of Dayu County who was forced to go to the palace to complain by Xiao Yinhan was just a pretense.
What he really wants is to use him to attract attention, and then the secret agents will send the information found here back to the capital.
Sure enough, when the emperor received the secret information, he was furious and immediately sent an imperial envoy to investigate thoroughly.
At this time, all the forces in the court who had originally impeached King Rong fell silent.
Even Xiao Yichen was transferred by Xiao Yinhan to continue secretly investigating the abduction and trafficking case.
After listening to the introduction of the system, Jiang Tang suddenly said: "Is Chen Guan in there?"
System: [Here! He has been found by officers and soldiers, and a doctor is treating him now.]
Speaking of which, we must thank Jiang Tang for asking the doctor to go to the salt field before, so that he could save people at the critical moment.
"The eldest princess is so courageous that even the court officials dare to abduct her."
[You are indeed brave!] The system agreed and said: [The abducted person did not have a household registration. The eldest princess originally planned to transfer the person. But who knew that the male protagonist arrived too quickly and blocked the entire salt field. No
The only way is to imprison people in the back mountains.]
As a result, they had been locked up for too long without eating or drinking. They were all starving to death, so they were weak.
[But the male protagonist is really awesome! Everyone thought he was just here to inspect the territory, but he actually played such a game in secret! The eldest princess will definitely not be able to escape this time! 】
Jiang Tang didn't smile: "That's awesome."
It was so powerful that he even deceived her. At this moment, everything that was confusing before was connected.
Why did he come to check the accounts of the salt farm, but on the way he went to the government to track down missing persons?
I'm afraid he came here for the kidnapping case in the first place!
And why in the middle of the investigation, an inexplicable money king suddenly appeared to assassinate instead of the eldest princess.
Probably because Xiao Yinhan's investigation directly touched the other party's core interests, the other party was forced to take action against him.
Just one salt farm involves two clans, and hundreds of abducted people are afraid that the whirlpool behind it is not that simple...
[Host, it’s bad! Yan Mi’er sent someone to take Fang Huaiwen away! 】
The sound of the system suddenly sounded, interrupting Jiang Tang's thoughts: "What?!"
…
With a "squeak" sound, the door of the room suddenly opened from the inside.
The next moment, the woman's figure appeared behind.
The guard guarding the door was just stunned and hurriedly spoke to stop him: "Master Tang, please stay. Your Majesty has ordered you not to go out these days."
Jiang Tang only paused for a moment, his apricot eyes as cold as knives: "Get out of the way!"
Just one sentence left the guard stunned.
I was used to Master Tang's gentle and beautiful appearance, but this sudden expression of a serious face and a cold and frosty attitude of giving orders really looked like their prince, which made people feel an inexplicable chill in the back.
And at an unexpected moment, Jiang Tang had already walked out.
"Stop, Master Tang, what are you doing?"
The guard could not stop Jiang Tang and quickly grabbed the maid who was following her.
The maid raised her head and confessed truthfully: "My master just ordered me to deliver some tea to that old gentleman, but when I went there, I found that there was no one inside. After she came back to report to the master, she came out directly."
The guard frowned, vaguely realizing something was wrong.
Just yesterday, the prince suddenly withdrew all the guards outside the Great Confucian Academy, saying that they no longer needed to guard them.
Why did something happen today?
The guard reacted and hurriedly caught up with Jiang Tang. Jiang Tang ignored him and walked straight towards Yan Mi'er to drive him out.
At this time, the girl in the room was proudly showing off to Ahua: "When the fourth cousin finds out about this, he will definitely thank me. I asked those people to send the old man directly to the capital. For this reason,
I also spent hundreds of taels of silver..."
"boom--"
There was a loud noise from the door. Yan Mi'er was startled and stood up from her seat in an instant: "Who is it!"
Jiang Tang had already walked in from the outside with a cold face, looked around, then went straight to Yan Mi'er, and said: "Where is the old gentleman? Hand him over immediately!"
A flash of panic flashed across Yan Mi'er's face: "Who is he? I don't know."
[Host, the female supporting character has sent someone to the back mountain. But she doesn’t know that the person who arranged it has been bribed. Those people want to kill Fang Huaiwen, you have to hurry up! 】
The system's nervous urging made Jiang Tang's heart skip a beat. Even so, she didn't show it and continued to press.
Because if you want to save people, you must have a reasonable reason.
"I ask again, where did you take Fang Daru?"
"Humph, I said I didn't know." Yan Mi'er lied too much. Her fourth cousin was not here. She didn't even bother to pretend, and looked arrogant: "How do I know? It's inexplicable."
With a "swipe~" sound, the long knife in the guard's hand was suddenly pulled out by Jiang Tang——
