Lian Er carefully entered the courtyard where Paihuazi's nest was located, and what he saw shocked him.
Five or six people fell down in the yard alone. Fortunately, he thought there was no one in the yard before, but it turned out that they were all knocked unconscious by the beating master at the first moment.
A dozen men also fell in several rooms. One of them he even knew was a famous fighter in the Nancheng area. He heard that his martial arts skills were strong and he was strong, but he didn't expect that he would still be knocked unconscious by the big master.
In the firewood shed in the yard, five or six frightened children were tied up. It was obvious that there were many loopholes in the arrangement of Shuntian Mansion, and these patriots had succeeded several times.
"Take everyone away quietly, leaving some capable men in the yard, and wait for the outgoing patriots to come back and capture them in one fell swoop. If they encounter any resistance, kill them directly!"
The old man ordered in a deep voice, and the sharp knife he was playing with flashed a bright and cold light from time to time, making people feel chilled when they saw it.
Soon, several inconspicuous green cloth carriages filed into the alley at the back entrance of the courtyard a hundred meters apart, and sent away the unconscious members of the flower-making gang one by one, quietly without disturbing the nearby people.
"Master, what should we do next?"
Lian Er's face was full of excitement. The credit for catching the thief in this courtyard was not small, but he also wanted greater and more credit so that he could continue to be promoted after his term expired.
"Don't get involved!"
After waving his hand, the elder said angrily, "The next thing is about Beicheng. It has nothing to do with you. Just go back home and stay home!"
After saying that, he ignored Lian Er's disappointed look and headed straight for the Paihuazi stronghold in Beicheng with half of the Shuntian Prefecture officials.
It is enough to ask Lian Er to take some of the credit. If he were to ask Lian Er to follow him to Beicheng, it would be too ugly and might bring trouble to Lian Er. There is no need to go too far.
It's not like people with a discerning eye can't see the clues. Lian Er's contribution to the arrest of a thief is enough. With his ability and prestige, he can't afford too many benefits.
In Paihuazi's lair, some things were found that would make ordinary officials frightened.
There are no eye-catching things like letters, just a few ordinary account books. The transaction data recorded in them, as well as the identity of the buyer, make people dare not ignore it.
If there was no background behind him, just relying on a bunch of photographers to get in touch with the famous brothels and Nanfeng Pavilion in the capital, Meng would not do this.
The boss can imagine how the forces behind them will react once the three organized flower-making gangs are wiped out.
The elder naturally despises these guys who rely on such unscrupulous means to make money, but he can ignore them, but his officials are not so tough.
Therefore, the big boss had a secret hand on the group of Paihuazi's accomplices who were knocked unconscious.
One by one, the heart meridians have been injured secretly, which is usually not visible, but once it touches someone, it will cause excruciating pain, and the vitality of the heart meridians will gradually be depleted. If a real Buddhist and Taoist expert is not hired to treat him at a high cost, he will not live for more than ten years.
Years ago, I still haven’t had any physical contact with anyone.
Not only that, as long as they are emotionally excited, they will also suffer from hidden injuries, or if they are more serious, they will also suffer from hidden injuries. Even if they do not die in the cell, they will become completely glassy.
I just want to see what the expressions of those so-called powerful men would be like if they spent all their energy rescuing such a bunch of losers.
This is also a warning. It really pisses off the big boss. Find an opportunity to do this to them and see if you are afraid!
…
The operation in Beicheng was quite smooth. With the help of the younger brother that the elder had left behind in Beicheng, there were no accidents. The two Paihuazi lairs were successfully captured without alarming anyone or any force.
The big boss took action, and there were four Anjin level masters in the two lairs. They were all knocked unconscious without a sound, which directly shocked their hearts and turned them into glass men. There is no future for them in the future.
At the same time, they also rescued a dozen children, six or seven of whom were luxuriously dressed, fair-skinned, and quite cute. They all obviously came from wealthy families.
In every lair, the elder left some capable men to ambush. When Jinghou captured the patriots who had gone out to do work, he personally took the prisoners back to Shuntian Mansion quietly.
"Interrogate all night and find out everything these guys know!"
The elder's face darkened, and he was so powerful that all the Shuntian government officials were so frightened that they dared not look directly at him. He said coldly: "Don't be polite to such rubbish. It doesn't matter if you just use severe punishment. Remember, we don't have much time, it's only one night."
!”
As soon as these words came out, the officials in the hall suddenly felt awe-inspiring, and they did not dare to neglect and went around to work.
They were well-informed and naturally knew about the people behind this group of philanderers from the officers in the operation. What the elder said was not wrong at all.
When tonight is over, the forces behind the three gangs of philanderers will realize that something is wrong. With a little inquiry, they will know the actions of Shuntian Mansion. When the time comes, all kinds of means, open guns and secret arrows will attack. Naturally, the big boss will take the lead.
But they will inevitably be affected.
If you don't want to be reduced to cannon fodder in such a fight, you have to open the mouth of Paihuazi as soon as possible, find out everything they have done, and turn this case into an ironclad case.
The forces behind it want to cause trouble and have some scruples.
That night, the lights in the Shuntian Mansion Prison were brightly lit, and the screams and screams were endless, which frightened the other prisoners in the prison. They thought it was the Shuntian Mansion Prison that was showing its ferocity and was going to deal cruelty to all the prisoners.
Where are the hands.
The elder sat in Shuntian Mansion and stayed up all night, waiting for the captured Paihuazi and the children to be rescued one after another. The murderous intention in his heart was surging and he was as silent as a mountain.
By the time the sky was dimming, the desk in front of the great master had been filled with confessions stained with blood, and the contents inside could be said to be shocking.
Apart from other things, during the Yunxiao Festival alone, the number of Paihuazi arrested by Shuntian Prefecture was fifty, and there were actually over sixty children rescued!
It’s so heartbreaking that nearly a hundred children were lost overnight!
Early in the morning, there were hundreds of people who went directly to the Shuntian government office to report the crime. Their faces were all anxious and their eyes were red. They were obviously extremely worried about the disappearance of their children.
Not only ordinary people, but also the stewards of various officials and powerful families came. They were also in an extremely bad mood. When they saw the eldest master, they directly reported the case and asked Shuntian Prefecture to send people to help find him immediately.
Lying on grass!
Seeing these stewards, the elder couldn't help but uttered a curse word in his heart, "Ya's children are missing, and the parents don't want to show their faces. What the hell?"
The elder waved his hand, and naturally some officials took these desperate parents to rescue the children to find out if their missing children were among them.
Suddenly, there was a loud cry in a remote courtyard of Shuntian Prefecture. Don't misunderstand, it was a cry of joy, not a cry of sadness and despair.
Even the stewards sent by the official families were so excited that the missing young master and young lady of the main family had been found.
It was also the officials of Shuntian Prefecture who acted quickly and captured three paihuazi nests at the first time, and then captured more than a dozen paihuazi nests. Only then were most of the children lost in the night rescued from the sea of fire.
Otherwise, after waiting for a day and a half, who knows whether these children will still be able to see their relatives?
Don't doubt the viciousness of some guys. In order to avoid being exposed or being caught by Shuntian Mansion, they will definitely not mind killing the newly abducted children directly.
That is to say, basically all the stewards of Baihe officials and officials who came to Shuntian Mansion Office early in the morning to report the case came back satisfied with their lost children.
Before leaving, it goes without saying that these people expressed their words of thanks and the excited and sincere expressions on their faces made the elder very satisfied.
After sending away the first batch of people who reported the crime, the elder took the confession that had been compiled urgently and went directly to the officials to attend the morning court.
After all, as a fourth-rank official in Beijing, the eldest master is qualified to attend the morning court.
Of course, given the special nature of Shuntian Mansion, no one would say anything if he didn't go to court. Anyway, he was just a 'minor official' standing at the end. Naturally, the big shots in the court wouldn't care if there was one more or one less.
But today, the atmosphere among the officials was obviously a little unusual.
When the big boss appeared, this atmosphere became more obvious and clear, as if it was aimed at him.
hehe……
Clearly feeling the obvious or covert hostility of some officials, the eldest master didn't care. He just glanced at it and stood at the end of the hundred officials, preparing to enter the palace.
"Hou Enhou, what a wonderful act last night!"
Wang Ziteng came over and reminded in a low voice: "You have to be careful, some adults are very dissatisfied with you!"
"Why?"
A sneer appeared on the corner of the elder's mouth and he asked calmly.
this……
Wang Ziteng also felt that it was very strange, and he became hostile to the elder for no reason. Such things rarely happened in the court, and if they did happen, it was usually because of conflicts of interest.
"Could it be that Enhou offended them somewhere?"
After much deliberation, this is the most reliable answer.
"Hey, last night Shuntian Mansion opened three flower-making dens and rescued nearly a hundred abducted children!"
The elder chuckled, but his tone was indescribably cold. Even a military commander like Wang Ziteng felt his heart go cold, as if the elder was a peerless ferocious beast with faint anger.
I see!
Wang Ziteng was suddenly enlightened, and he felt disdain for those people in his heart. They were all complaining openly. They did such heartbreaking things just for some money. Those people were really not people to be friends with.
It's a pity that the Shi brothers did not attend the morning court this time, otherwise the heads of the four major families would be united, and those guys would not dare to be too presumptuous.
What he didn't expect was that just after the grand master reported it to the court, the court officials couldn't wait to launch an impeachment against the grand master. Although they didn't take action personally, the officials under them were not polite at all!
There is one more chapter, I’ll post it at six o’clock tomorrow morning
