Yuchi Gong rolled up his sleeves and said harshly: "Old bastard, what do you mean? It was Du He and I who fought bloody battles here last night and eliminated all the dead soldiers in Dou Mansion. Now even the gate of Dou Mansion is blocked."
You haven't even taken a step forward yet, why should you take away all the credit as soon as you come? No, I will never agree!"
This guy has a typical hot temper.
Du He also said: "Master Changsun, you are new here and are not familiar with the situation in Tongzhou, so you should rest in the government office for the time being. Uncle Yuchi and I can handle this matter!"
Even a fool can see that it doesn't matter whether you have merit or not, what matters is Dou's family property.
Changsun Wuji made it clear that he did not want Yuchi Gong and Du He to get involved in the Dou family's property.
Fang Xuanling couldn't stand it anymore and said: "Master Zhangsun, Du He's words are reasonable. It's better to do this. Now that the Dou Mansion has been surrounded, there will be no serious problem. Let Jingde and Du He take a rest and we will deal with this matter together.
how?"
Changsun Wuji sneered and said: "Du He, I forgot to tell you that you caused a big mess in Tongzhou, and His Majesty has suspended you from your post as Tongzhou's special commander. Moreover, Mr. Fang and I also came together for this matter.
Come on, you are a mud Buddha crossing the river now, and you cannot protect yourself. You should think about your own affairs first. As for Dou's case, don't even think about it! Also, Jingde, as the governor of Tongzhou, you can let it go
Du He's mischief has paralyzed the officialdom in Tongzhou and made people panic. You are also responsible. Therefore, you should reflect on your mistakes in the government office and think about how to explain to His Majesty when the time comes!"
Swish.
Changsun Wuji immediately took out the edict.
Yuchi Gong was furious, but when he saw the edict, he did not dare to take any action.
Du He looked at Changsun Wuji and said: "Lord Changsun, last night, Uncle Yuchi and I ignored our own safety and personally led our troops to besiege Dou Aiwei. Uncle Yuchi was deeply surrounded by the dead soldiers of the Dou Mansion and was injured in many places.
And my men also lost dozens of people, and the battle was very fierce... We have no merit, but we have hard work. Are you really so heartless and righteous that you want to kick me two away?"
Changsun Wuji said with a smile: "Du He, there is nothing I can do about the imperial edict! As for what you have done, I will report it to Your Majesty afterwards!"
Yuchi Gong cursed loudly: "Changsun Fuji, are you still shameless?"
Changsun Wuji smiled and said: "Jingde, Du He, I know you are angry, but if you have any grievances, you can go to His Majesty. I am sorry that I can't help you!"
Seeing the angry looks of Yuchi Gong and Du He, Changsun Wuji felt very relieved.
Yuchi Gong suddenly laughed and said: "Uncle Yuchi, I can see that we are just working hard and it is thankless, that's all. In this case, I'd better go back to Chang'an to do my business."
"snort!"
Du He waved his fist and followed Yuchi Gong unwillingly.
Fang Xuanling said: "Lord Changsun, although this is your Majesty's will, is it a little unkind for us to do this?"
Changsun Wuji shook his head and said: "Master Fang, this is wrong. When we come to Tongzhou this time, in addition to you and me, there are also people from Yushitai. If they know that Du He and Jingde are also handling the case,
, you will have to read our book when you go back, and it will cause a lot of trouble, so it is better to cut the mess quickly."
Fang Xuanling shook her head helplessly.
Changsun Wuji waved his hand: "Let's go, Mr. Fang, it's time to check the Dou Mansion. Don't forget our agreement."
Fang Xuanling nodded: "Don't forget, all the property of the Dou family will be turned over to the state treasury, and we will divide the Dou family's property 40-60."
"Haha... Mr. Fang really has a good memory!" Changsun Wuji said happily.
The two of them quickly arrived at Dou Mansion with their troops.
I saw that the gate of Dou Mansion was already surrounded by people from Tongzhou Government Office.
Changsun Wuji stepped forward and said loudly: "You all listen carefully, I am Changsun Wuji, and I have been ordered to thoroughly investigate the Dou family's rebellion. You can all go!"
"ah?"
When the government officials saw this, they were all stunned.
But seeing the people brought by Changsun Wuji rushing towards them, everyone was too angry to speak, gritted their teeth and all retreated.
Changsun Wuji ordered: "You rush in quickly, control the people in the Dou family, guard all the money warehouses, granaries, etc., and find the Dou family's other land deeds, house deeds, etc. as soon as possible."
"yes!"
A group of guards rushed in with murderous intent.
Changsun Wuji said: "Master Fang, the Dou family is rich. This time the house raid will be able to find at least three million yuan worth of money and food. By then, you and I will have done a great job!"
Fang Xuanling nodded.
As soon as he finished speaking, a subordinate hurried out and said, "Lord Changsun, something is wrong!"
"Why are you panicking?" Changsun Wuji asked.
The guard said: "My lords, there is nothing in Dou Mansion!"
"What? Impossible!"
Changsun Wuji pushed aside the guard and hurriedly walked into the door.
When they looked up, he and Fang Xuanling were stunned.
Looking around, I saw that the entire Dou Mansion was empty.
The house is still there, but all the windows are gone.
The corridor is still there, but the stone benches are missing.
In a word, everything that can be moved is gone.
Even the rockery had a lot of stones removed.
The ornamental fish in the pond were also taken away.
Even the tiles on the roof are not spared.
The former extremely luxurious Dou Mansion looked as if it had been looted by bandits.
Changsun Wuji's hands trembled with anger and he asked: "Did Du He do this...?"
The guard shook his head and said: "According to the people in the Dou Mansion, this matter was not done by the Tongzhou Mansion Office. At three o'clock last night, the people of Tongzhou City suddenly rushed in and robbed everything they saw. Even the head of the Dou family, Dou Aiwei,
My two daughters were also taken away, and their whereabouts are still unknown!"
Fang Xuanling: "..."
So fierce, are they common people or bandits?
Changsun Wuji asked: "Have the Dou Mansion's granary and money warehouse also been robbed by the common people?"
The guard said: "Although those people are hateful, they are not so bold."
"That's good. The money warehouse and granary are there, that's good, that's good..." Changsun Wuji said with lingering fear, and a big stone finally fell to the ground in his heart.
The guard added: "Sir, according to the accounts of the people in Dou Mansion, at three o'clock last night, a group of bandits suddenly broke in from the northwest corner of Dou Mansion and took away all the money of Dou Mansion! Even several members of Dou Mansion
All the secret basements were looted, and now there’s nothing left!”
"What?"
Changsun Wuji almost spit out blood.
There are actually bandits in Tongzhou?
Changsun Wuji was unwilling to give in and went to the scene to see for himself, and sure enough, nothing was found.
He arrested the people from Dou Mansion again and interrogated them, but the result was still the same.
All the things in the front yard of Dou Mansion were snatched away by the angry people. The valuable things in the backyard and the luggage that Dou Mansion had packed before were all snatched away by bandits from Yakou Village. Those bandits also got angry.
The granary was burned down, and everything else turned into ashes.
Changsun Wuji's vision went dark and he almost fell down.
