Unlike the "reign of terror" in Zhangzhou, the situation in Wanzhou was much calmer.
Jiang Pengji found a random reason to send the two counterfeits back to their hometown for reincarnation. She ordered her subordinates to reel in the fish.
"The Tao family has been jumping around for too long." Jiang Pengji held a thin bamboo stick in her mouth and acted like an overbearing president. "It's getting cold. It's time to go bankrupt."
Yang Si and the others didn't have any objections. Anyway, it wasn't the first time that their lord had gone crazy and was unreliable.
On the other hand, Li Yun was honest and picked out the mistakes in her words.
"My lord, the spring ploughing has just ended. The weather will get hotter and hotter."
Jiang Pengji secretly rolled her eyes at him and said, "Hanmei, there's a generation gap between us. You don't even understand the jokes of young people."
Li Yun: "…"
He was indeed a few years older than the lord, but it wasn't so exaggerated that there was a generation gap, right?
Yang Si smiled and teased, "Hanmei indeed doesn't look like a young man."
Liyun was at a loss. Suddenly, he had the illusion that he was out of time.
Yang Si said, "Didn't Layman Zaichi come out with a new story some time ago? In the book, there was a sentence, "The weather has turned cold. Let the Wang Corporation go bankrupt." It sounded strange, but after thinking about it carefully, it was very interesting. I didn't expect my lord to also be a fan of Zaichi and like his books. "
Jiang Pengji said, "Of course I like Zaichi. I admire him from head to toe."
Speaking of which, Wei Ci's new book was written by her and him together.
However, her only contribution was the nonsensical "It's getting cold, let the Wang Group go bankrupt."
She thought that it was a string of witty remarks, but Wei Ci expressed his disdain.
"Sigh, Zixiao, you don't love me anymore."
Jiang Pengji squatted beside him and stared at him, hoping that he would add that sentence.
Wei Ci was at his wit's end. In the end, he suffered a crushing defeat and abandoned his armor. Therefore, this sentence, which was regarded as the first generation of internet slang by later generations, was recorded in the history books. Other than the title of 'the founder of the realistic school of darkness', Wei Ci also gained the title of 'Pipi Ci'. It was only because more and more mischievous and interesting golden sentences appeared in his later works that he could be called an ancient internet expert.
Wei Ci, "…"
I didn't, I didn't, don't talk nonsense!
Madame Tao and others were waiting for the good news happily. Unexpectedly, the good news didn't come. Bad news came one after another.
When the aristocratic families annexed the people's land, their hands and feet were usually dirty. Jiang Pengji could investigate them thoroughly.
Because of the large number of people in the clan, the quality of the clansmen was not uniform, so it was not rare for the Tao clan's descendants to do something that angered the heavens and the people.
No matter which clansman did it, in the end, the entire clan would have to bear the blame.
Jiang Pengji did not accuse Madame Tao and the others of the crime of selling illicit salt. Instead, she chose other crimes that had nothing to do with salt affairs.
Even so, the result was that the carrot was dragged into the mud. There were more than thirty scattered crimes!
As the head of this interest group, Tao enjoyed the most benefits and was found to have committed the most crimes.
Jiang Pengji was determined to be ruthless. Naturally, she would not give them time to escape or react.
Madame Tao and others kept a lot of private troops, but most of them were ordinary people who had never seen blood. They looked strong and strong, and they could scare the common people. But when they faced the elites under Jiang Pengji's command, they would be sent to their deaths. It didn't take long for them to surround Madame Tao's residence. The clansmen and servants who didn't know what was going on were flustered. The crying of children and women drifted into the high walls of the inner residence and into Madame Han's ears. Madame Han lived in the inner residence and almost never went out. At this time, she was also alarmed. She looked a little worried.
She asked her personal maid, "What happened outside?"
The maid cried. She didn't know whether she was crying for the future of her master or for her own life.
"I heard that Liu Xi, the Duke of Lanting, sent troops to confiscate the house. Madame, what should we do now?"
Hearing this, Madame Han only felt a buzzing sound in her head, as if something had exploded one after another. The explosion made her deaf.
After a while, she regained her senses.
"What confiscation?"
The maid couldn't explain clearly, but it was an indisputable fact that the Tao family's residence was surrounded.
Madame Han's expression changed. She suddenly got up from her seat and was about to leave when she heard a flurry of footsteps.
When she went out, she saw rows of armored soldiers with guns in their hands entering the residence.
"How dare you!"
Madame Han was furious. She couldn't help but yell at the ruffian soldiers for their actions.
"Who allowed you to enter without permission?"
The leader of the soldiers asked politely. "May I know who this madame is? Are you a guest or a member of the Tao family? "
Madame Han didn't answer. Instead, she asked, "Why did you enter without permission?"
The leader said, "Madame Tao is plotting a rebellion and framed the governor. I am under orders to arrest the criminal."
When Madam Han heard this, she was so angry that she almost fainted.
"If you want to frame someone, you can always find a pretext." She swallowed down the taste of iron in her throat and scolded, "The Tao family has been here for generations, and they have survived through the chaos. Why would they want to rebel at this time? It's obvious that Liu Lanting is coveting other people's private property and is using it as an excuse to take it by force! The world's most vicious bandit is none other than Liu Lanting. All of you are just helping her! "
The soldiers were polite at first. Although they were confiscating the residence, they didn't take the initiative to force anyone, nor did they smash anything.
Compared to the previous examples, they were more refined and courteous.
They didn't expect to be scolded so harshly even though they were so polite.
It was one thing to scold them, but this crazy woman even scolded the lord.
This was intolerable!
There was no need to tolerate it anymore. Arrest them all!
Madame Han was just an ordinary woman. How could she compete with an adult man?
While the two sides were arguing, Xie Ze's voice was heard.
"What are you doing? Did you forget the lord's order not to use force on women? "
Everyone stopped fighting and bowed to Xie Ze.
Xie Ze knew Madame Han and bowed to her for Han Yu's sake.
"Madame Han, please don't get in my way. Madame Tao is guilty and the evidence is irrefutable."
Madame Han was stubborn and wouldn't listen to him.
Xie Ze had no choice but to use the Tao family to threaten Madame Han to cooperate with him. Madame Han was so angry that her face turned pale.
Xie Ze was also helpless. He didn't care about anyone else's opinion except for Madame Han. If they disobeyed, he would use force and take them away. How could he use force on Madame Han? Even if they divorced, Madame Han was still Mr. Han Yu's legal wife.
Xie Ze couldn't be rude to Madame Han for the sake of her reputation.
Madame Han was sent to the womenfolk. The sisters-in-law, sisters-in-law, and sisters-in-law stared at her with burning eyes.
They didn't forget that Madame Han got into trouble after she returned home.
What surprised Madam Han even more was that as soon as she was locked in, before she could even ask her mother how she was, her mother took the initiative to slap her. The slap caused her right ear to ring and half of her face to swell up at a speed visible to the naked eye.
