Chapter 117: The Government Arrests People

The surprise in Yin Zhenghong's eyes flashed away, and then his face regained its composure, and he waved his hand and said:

"This family master knows about this. It's not your fault. I never expected that Su Yuan would be able to perform martial arts. You should leave first!"

The black-clad guard breathed a sigh of relief, nodded and said "yes", then tiptoed back.

opposite.

Ye Qingyu stared at the chessboard on the table with a gloomy look, his fists clenched so hard that they made a clattering sound, and he suppressed his anger and said:

"Aunt, Su Yuan survived today's catastrophe. She will definitely be on guard in the future. Wouldn't it be even more difficult for us to touch her?"

Yin Zhenghong did not respond immediately, but lowered his eyelids slightly, slowly picked up the black and white chess pieces on the chessboard and put them into the corresponding chess boxes, then spoke in a leisurely tone:

"Don't panic. Su Yuan is a skilled martial artist, so ordinary guards won't be able to do anything to her. We need to deal with her quietly and secretly, and don't let us get dragged into this."

After she finished speaking, she seemed to have thought of something, and chuckled, speaking in a casual but pointed tone:

"How about this, tomorrow I will let Yin Yi take some money and find a killer to buy Su Yuan's life. Haha, I'm not afraid that she won't die. By then, Su Yuan will no longer be a roadblock.

Young Master Ji is heartbroken and devastated after losing his beloved. If you can comfort him tenderly and considerately, he will definitely follow you wholeheartedly."

Ye Qingyu curled her lips slightly and nodded:

"Okay, let's do as my aunt says."

The uncle and nephew were discussing murder in the house, and in the dark night on the roof, a blurry figure flashed by, as fast as a ghost.

After Su Yuan eavesdropped on the conversation in the study, a cold smile appeared on his lips.

She looked around the huge Yin's house, then moved and quickly shuttled through every room in the Yin's house.

Whenever he comes across an object, no matter how expensive it is, he just waves his hand and puts it into the space.

After one stick of incense.

Su Yuan looked inside and saw that the antique vases, gold and silver jewelry, and even the private money of the servants in the Yin mansion were neatly arranged in a row.

Even if she didn't take these, the soldiers would not let them go when they searched her house, so it would be better for her, the informant, to take them.

Think of this.

Su Yuan raised his eyebrows slightly and glanced towards the empty study.

Finally left!

She just discovered it.

The big heads are probably hidden in a key area of the study.

There was nothing in Yin Zhenghong's room except a thousand taels of silver and her husband's jewelry.

Thinking of this, Su Yuan no longer hesitated. He appeared at the door of the study in an instant and pried open the door lock.

She slowly closed the door and began to grope around in the study.

After a moment.

Su Yuan raised his brows and turned the vase-shaped mechanism with his hand. There were a few "click" sounds, and a secret door slowly opened.

She took out a warm yellow night pearl and leaned over to illuminate the wooden room.

What catches the eye are two rows of rosewood shelves on the left and right, on which dozens of treasures are placed.

In the middle were ten large boxes with mahogany copper rings, five boxes of glittering gold bars, the other five boxes each contained silver bills with a face value of one hundred taels, and the other four boxes were filled with jewelry and silver bars.

After Su Yuan finished looking at these things, he didn't delay any longer and waved his hand to put all of Yin Zhenghong's assets into the space.

Go to the kitchen and empty it out.

He turned around and headed straight for Prefect Xu's residence, and after a thorough search, he finally went to Prince Nanyou's residence, where he used a dart to insert the secret letter into the head of Prince Nanyou's bed.

All the work is done.

Su Yuan stood outside the Su Mansion, sighed softly, and climbed over the wall to go inside.

There is still the Ye Mansion in Luocheng left, but since today's move is a last-minute one, I'm afraid Meng Yunlan will worry if I go back too late.

Su Yuan planned to go to Luocheng again tomorrow. Anyway, for her, the round trip would only take an hour.

If King Nanyou sent someone to deliver the imperial edict, it would take at least two days to deliver it by horse at full speed, and it would arrive before then.

She is not in a hurry.

early morning.

The whole world is clear and bright. The sunlight shines through the light and fresh mist, gently spraying on all things in the world, creating a unique and pleasing feeling.

Dongmu Mountain, Huachen Academy.

Early in the morning, the students were not studying.

Instead, they watched in amazement as the usually gentle and amiable headmaster and Mr. Ye, whom they always regarded as a role model, were captured by the soldiers of the palace.

Zhang Xun, who was the most loyal, frowned when he saw this, and stepped forward and shouted:

"What did the chief criminal of the Ye case commit? Why are you arresting her for no reason? If you don't explain it clearly today, we, the students of Huachen, will not allow you to take her away!"

The black-clad soldier who was holding Ye Qingyu's arms glanced at Zhang Xunyi unhappily upon hearing this, and shouted:

"We are the personal soldiers of King Nanyou. If you continue to obstruct the investigation, we will arrest you as well. As for the statement made by this student, if you have any objections, you can go to King Nanyou. I am not responsible for explaining it for you."

The black-clad soldier winked at his companion beside him, signaling her to take the fool away.

The man understood and immediately drew the long sword from his waist and held it across Zhang Xunyi, looking at her coldly, as if he was going to kill her if she came forward again.

When Zhang Xun saw that this group of soldiers dared to draw swords against each other, he was so scared that his face turned pale. He subconsciously took a half step back, and obediently followed the pull of his classmates and squeezed back into the crowd of students.

Fortunately, the student was a wise man. He glanced at the black-clad soldiers with swords surrounding Huachen Academy, pushed Zhang Xunyi's arm, and whispered in a more serious tone:

"Are you going to die? What the man just said is right. This group of people are the personal soldiers of Prince Nanyou. They openly took Shanzhang and Ye Qingyu away. They must have done something wrong. You are so reckless and you are disturbing the soldiers from investigating the case. Be careful or your head will be chopped off."

After hearing this, Zhang Xun looked at Ye Qingyu's embarrassed back as she was pushed around, and said with a hint of tears in his voice:

"But Mr. Ye is a good person. You are not from Luocheng, so you don't know that the Ye family is well-known for being kind and philanthropic. Mr. Ye is usually kind and modest to others. He has a bright future ahead of him. How could he commit a crime?"

The woman, who was dressed in Huachen student uniform and wearing a jade crown, was obviously a noble lady. She rolled her eyes at Zhang Xunyi and lowered her voice to a level that Zhang Xunyi could hear, and said with disdain:

"He is such a kind man. Last night, King Nanyou summoned his confidants to discuss the matter, and this morning he ordered the arrest of the Ye family of Luocheng, the governor of Jiangzhou, Xu Yiyun, and the president of Huachen Academy. You just don't know about this matter. We, the children of officials, will know why this morning."

Zhang Xunyi looked at the woman angrily and said angrily:

"Then why do you do this? Don't pretend to know and slander me. Humph, I'm afraid you can't stand the fact that Mr. Ye is so talented and usually suppresses you, so you are deliberately stepping on him?"

As soon as these words came out, the students who were watching came over curiously. The woman with the jade crown looked around, raised her chin slightly, and snorted:

"The so-called great philanthropists are nothing but wolves in sheep's clothing. They claim to be raising livestock by enclosing mountains and occupying land, but they actually hire people to dig salt mines and collude with officials and bandits to sell illegal salt."

She clicked her tongue twice and raised her eyebrows.

"Do you know the famous Banshishan bandits? They were all wild people in the mountain, killing people without hesitation. Do you know who supported them secretly? It was the Ye family in Luocheng! Haha, what you know is just a false impression created by them."

"As for what you just said about me being jealous of her, I am a lady from an official family, why would I lower myself to be jealous of such a person? I guess only a brainless person like you would do such a thing. Sigh, I think you should stop studying, because who knows how you will end up in the officialdom in the future."
