Although he had fought his way through a mountain of corpses and a sea of blood, and he had no idea how much blood was on his hands until now, but looking at the scene in front of him, he still couldn't help but grit his teeth.
"This matter is due to my lack of thinking -"
Qin Shubao let out a long breath, with a hint of deep self-blame in his tone.
"I only thought about the speed of the soldiers and saving people from fire and water, but I didn't expect that they would jump over the wall in a hurry and kill people and silence them-"
"Second brother, I can't blame you for this. It's because these beasts are too crazy -"
Cheng Yaojin turned his head and cursed.
"Don't let me catch them—"
Kong Yingda and Lu Deming's beards were trembling.
"How did these evil thieves succeed? How did they succeed? They are still children..."
Niu Jinda, who was dressed in a white robe, completely lost the virtues of the showman in the past. Looking at the tragic situation in front of him, he gritted his teeth and remained silent.
When Guo Sandao, Jin San and others discovered all this, their legs had already become weak, and their whole bodies collapsed on the ground. There was only one thought left in their minds, it was over.
None of them dared to imagine that the prince, who was usually gentle and gentle with a gentle smile on his lips, could be so ruthless.
The corpses were cleared out one by one. There were twenty-eight corpses, including twenty-one female infants and seven male infants.
Everyone present fell silent, and later, a few bones were cleared out from the well one after another.
Look at the skeleton, there are male and female.
Gao Ting had long since lost any expectation that he was about to make a meritorious service. At this moment, he only felt a chill running down his spine. At the same time, he was silently sweating for his old enemy, the magistrate of Chang'an County.
Dozens of lives!
This case is probably going to break the news!
When the clean-up and search work here was almost in progress, the magistrate of Chang'an County, Guo Desi, hurried over with his own county government personnel.
When someone sent by Gao Ting said that a farm under his control was not only related to the chaos in the city today, but also might be involved in a huge human trafficking case, how could he possibly stay there?
While cursing my mother in my heart, I gathered people and hurriedly rushed here.
Guo Desi was born as a second-class Jinshi during the Wude period of the Tang Dynasty. He was fair and fair. He didn't have a big backing, but he was able to sneak into the important position of Chang'an County Magistrate in just a few years. He was considered a clever little kid.
You know, a bunch of big guys are waiting here.
As soon as he got off the horse, he trotted this way, making his whole body tremble with fat.
"Students have seen Kong Jijiu, Dr. Lu——"
He was a student who graduated from the Imperial College, so when he saw Kong Jijiu and Lu Deming, his eyes suddenly lit up. As if he had seen a life-saving straw, he quickly grabbed them, called himself a student, and bowed deeply.
Then he hurriedly said hello to Wang Zi'an and others.
As for Gao Ting——
That would be very unpleasant to see.
The nose is not a nose and the face is not a face. He snorted coldly.
What the hell, you are so tall and nothing, you came all the way to my territory to handle a case, and you didn’t even say hello!
But at this time, he didn't dare to say it, and he didn't dare to object.
It wasn't just because there was a group of big guys there, but he saw at a glance the more than twenty corpses parked next to them, as well as a few terrifying bones.
"This farm was originally the property of a descendant of the Wang family. About three years ago, it was acquired by a passing businessman named Xu Dalang. This is the document they left with the county government for the settlement procedures at that time—"
Guo Desi very simply took out the document he had prepared a long time ago, turned it directly to a page, pointed to the signature on it and said.
"Liu Dalang——"
Looking at this name, several people couldn't help but look at each other. It was obvious that this was simply a fake name!
Although there are more people calling others Da Lang and Erlang nowadays, no one’s name can just be called Da Lang.
Moreover, from this document, apart from knowing that Liu Dalang was a former businessman, no useful information could be found at all.
Several people unanimously focused their attention on the seller's name: Wang Tingrang!
"Now, we can only go to Wang Ting to understand the situation first -"
He is tall and has a big head.
It's so poisonous. With my small arms and legs, why have I been at odds with the Wang family recently?
If you go there this time, you won't be beaten up on the spot, right?
Although he felt terrified, who allowed this case to be brought to his yamen——
After arranging manpower to guard these corpses, Gao Ting had to bite the bullet and go to Wang's house to understand the situation.
Wang Zi'an, who had always had a gloomy face, suddenly stretched out his hand to stop him.
"Wait a minute——"
Gao Ting was stunned for a moment, and others also looked over.
"Even if Wang Tingrang is found, he is willing to cooperate with the investigation, but how much can he remember about the transaction three years ago? What's more, the other party obviously used a false name at the time - if this continues, I'm afraid this case will be open indefinitely.
Put it on hold——"
After saying that, Wang Zi'an's eyes fell straight on the pile of corpses on the ground, and his voice had a faint murderous aura.
"It will be a waste for this kind of scum to live another day - I am sure that this person will not run far away, so I asked someone to prepare pen, ink, paper and inkstone for me - I want to profile them..."
Although he didn't know what profiling was, Gao Ting didn't dare to neglect Wang Zi'an's request. He quickly asked the accompanying master to bring it to Wang Zi'an.
Wang Zi'an took it, turned around and walked to Guo Sandao and others who were lying limply on the ground.
"I'll give you a chance to talk about the appearance of your so-called prince in detail. Well done, I'll give you a pleasure - also, tell me, who else has seen that prince before..."
Although Guo Sandao was scared, he was still a bachelor. He knew that when things got to this point, he might not be able to live anymore, so he calmed down a lot.
"If I go back to the Marquis, I'm willing to cooperate. I just want the Marquis to agree to one thing -"
The prince looked at him calmly.
Guo Sandao mustered up his courage and gritted his teeth.
"The villain is in this business and is worried about others' revenge, so he doesn't marry a wife. However, he secretly raises an outhouse in the West City and has two children. If something happens to me, I'm afraid their mother and daughter will have to cut off their source of income -
—I hid about two to three hundred guan under the chopping board in the kitchen of the courtyard where I usually live in the west of the city. I hope that the Marquis can help me transfer it to them, so that the orphans and widows will not be lost—"
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! After speaking, Guo Sandao closed his mouth and looked at Wang Zi'an.
Wang Zi'an stared at him for a while, and when he was about to despair, he nodded gently.
"Okay, I promise you!"
Although Guo Sandao deserved death for his crime, it did not harm his wife and children.
Seeing that Wang Zi'an actually agreed, Guo Sandao couldn't help but feel relieved. He struggled to get up from the ground and kowtowed to Wang Zi'an.
"Master Hou, just ask, I know everything I know -"
As a master of calligraphy and painting, and a contemporary miracle doctor, it is of course a piece of cake to draw a profile.
Soon, according to Guo Sandao's description and the additions of Jin San and Wang Gouzi next to him, a character emerged from Wang Zi'an's pen on the page.
At the beginning, Kong Yingda, Lu Deming, Qin Shubao, Cheng Yaojin, Niu Jinda, Gao Ting and Guo Desi were just confused and watching the excitement. But as the characters in Wang Zi'an's works became more and more full-bodied, the expressions on several people's faces
They were even more shocked, especially Gao Ting and Guo Desi, whose faces were full of disbelief as if they had seen a ghost.
Wang Zi'an ignored the shocked expressions on several people's faces and slowly pushed the portrait in his hand to Guo Sandao and others.
"Look, the prince you call is this person?"
As if seeing monsters, Guo Sandao and others looked at the portrait in Wang Zi'an's hand in disbelief and swallowed hard.
"The cheeks are a little fatter, but the rest is almost the same!"
Hearing this, Wang Zi'an nodded, picked up the pen, and added a few more strokes.
"What now--"
"That's him! He's the prince!"
Wang Zi'an turned around and handed the portrait to Gao Ting next to him.
"Gaoming Mansion, thank you for your work——"
Unexpectedly, after Gao Ting took the portrait, he remained motionless, as if he had been struck by lightning. Guo Desi next to him wiped the sweat from his head and spoke in a difficult tone.
"Master Hou, is this a mistake?"
But after asking, he regretted it.
Even if Wang Zi'an made a mistake, Guo Sandao and others would not make a mistake. They were people who had dealt with this man more than once.
"If this is really this person, I think there is no need to investigate -"
Gao Ting's face looked extremely ugly.
"I know this man. He is a descendant of a branch of the Wang family in Taiyuan. His name is Wang Yuan. Because of his outstanding abilities, he is very popular with the head of the Wang family. Now he seems to be in charge of most of the Wang family's salt mines-"
I was originally thinking about how to persuade the Wang family to cooperate with the investigation.
It’s okay now, no need to cooperate anymore!
When he thought that he was about to take people to Wang's house again to arrest someone, and to arrest such an important person, Gao Ting wanted to explode on the spot.
"Taiyuan Wang Family?"
Kong Yingda and Lu Deming had expressions of disbelief on their faces.
"The Wang family is a family that has been crowned for generations. It has been a famous family for hundreds of years. It has always passed down poems and books and abided by etiquette and music. How could there be such a scum in the family——"
The two old men were trembling and heartbroken.
It was much simpler for Qin Shubao, Cheng Yaojin and Niu Jinda. Without saying a word, they jumped on the horseback, sandwiched Gao Ting in the middle, and walked out.
"Let's go to the Wang family to ask for someone!"
Gao Ting:……
I want to die, but I don’t know if it’s too late——
…
Wang family.
In the study room.
Wang Yuan, who looked gentle and elegant, was holding a tea cup and talking calmly to the head of the family, Wang Yan.
"Don't worry, head of the family, although some of the leaders of the city foxes and rats have met me, they don't know my identity or name, and there is no evidence left at the farm - even if they find something wrong, they will
What can be done?”
Having said this, Wang Yuan smiled leisurely.
"Let them go find the unfounded Liu Dalang, or summon the unaware Wang Tingrang?"
As soon as he finished speaking, he might have found it interesting himself, as a sarcastic smile appeared on the corner of his mouth.
It was just a steady hand at the time, but I didn't expect it to actually work.
Check it out, don’t be afraid.
It is true that Wang Tingrang took possession of the farm three years ago, but Wang Tingrang had no knowledge of all this. He did not even know who Liu Dalang was, let alone who Liu Dalang was.
As long as you don't seek death during this period and go out wandering around, even if the gods come, they won't be able to find you.
"I can rest assured that you are doing things -"
Wang Yan asked about several other details in detail and found that Wang Yuan's arrangements were flawless. He immediately felt relieved and a comforting smile appeared on his face.
"However, it's still in the limelight recently. Don't run around and put your hands on things first. Take this opportunity to review your lessons at home. Spring is coming soon. A hero in the family like you,
You can’t waste your energy on these family affairs. You should prepare yourself to become an official next year—”
Wang Yuan stood up with a smile and bowed his hands to Wang Yan.
"Thank you, Master, for cultivating——"
The attitude is neither humble nor arrogant, and the behavior is polite.
Wang Yan nodded with satisfaction.
"In that case, it's okay, you go down first -"
Before I could say a word, my concierge rushed in crawling.
"Master, big, big things are not going well——"
When Wang Yan heard this, he immediately became excited.
It’s a bad year——
What do you want to do today? It’s endless waves, right?
He suppressed the annoyance in his heart and looked at the concierge who reported the news.
"To inform the head of the family, the king outside, Wang, Wang Zi'an, is here again, bringing with him many, many people——"
Wang Yan:……
This is so delicious that you won’t want to put down your chopsticks!
I really think our Wang family is easy to mess with——
"Gather all the servants to guard the courtyard and prepare strong bows and crossbows. If he dares to act recklessly again, our Wang family will be destroyed along with him!"
You can't retreat, you can't retreat even one step!
If this bitch comes to the door, the Wang family's reputation accumulated over hundreds of years may be wiped out and it will become a joke in the streets.
Before the concierge could even leave, the steward rushed in quickly.
"I would like to report to the head of the family that something bad is going on. Prince An, the Marquis of Chang'an, has brought Qin Shubao, the Duke of Ji, Cheng Yaojin, the Duke of Su, Niu Jinda, the general of the Youwu Guard, Kong Yingda, the Jiujiu of the Imperial Academy, Lu Deming, the Imperial Doctor, and Guo De, the magistrate of Chang'an County.
Later, Wannian County Magistrate Gao Ting and many government servants surrounded our Wang family——"
This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! When Wang Yan heard this, his body suddenly swayed, and his throat was slightly sweet.
"Wang Zi'an, you go too far to bully others——"
After Wang Yan finished scolding, he actually had an answer in his heart.
He calmly glanced at Wang Yuan, whose expression changed slightly, and then took a deep breath.
"Why did they come-"
"They barricaded the door, saying, saying--"
As he said that, the foreign steward secretly looked at Wang Yuan, who was standing next to Wang Yan, and subconsciously lowered his head a little.
"They said that our Wang family should hand over Prince Wang Yuan immediately——"
Wang Yuan's face instantly turned pale.
Wang Yan couldn't help but close his eyes slightly and let out a breath.
Fortunately, I had a hand at that time and had someone intercept this piece of shit like Wang Yuan. Otherwise, once Wang Yuan fell into the hands of the imperial court alive, the Wang family would probably be in catastrophe!
"Invite them to the front hall to entertain them, and I'll be there soon—"
Wang Yan dismissed everyone, then turned around and stared at the pale Wang Yuan without saying a word, a complicated look flashed in his eyes.
Wang Yuan was startled at first, but then his expression turned miserable.
He straightened his clothes and bowed deeply to Wang Yan.
"My parents are old and my two children are still young. From now on, everything depends on the mercy of the family leader——"
Wang Yan was silent for a long time, then raised his hand and patted Wang Yuan's shoulder gently.
"You have done your best for the family over the years, and it is obvious to all that you are a well-deserved hero of our Wang family. I, the King, will not treat heroes badly, let alone your family. From now on, your parents' support will be the same as that of the other clans in the main house.
Lao Tong, allocate a shop, and the benefits will be at the disposal of your wife. The children will be educated in the clan. Before joining the officialdom, if you marry a wife and have children, all the supplies will be borne by the clan——"
When Wang Yuan heard this, he kowtowed to the ground.
"Wang Yuan thanks the master for showing mercy——"
After saying that, he got up from the ground and staggered towards the backyard.
Soon, there was a commotion in the backyard, including heart-wrenching cries. Then he let out a gentle breath and walked out.
In the front yard, Wang Zi'an, Cheng Yaojin and others all had murderous expressions on their faces and remained silent.
He didn't even touch the tea served by the servant.
The servants of the Wang family were also a little scared. Although they were servants, they were also servants of the Wang family. They had never been so careful in normal times, but they knew that these people were different.
These bitches really dare to fight and kill, but they don’t take the Wang family seriously!
