Li Yi and Fu Guoshe will not be targeted in the short term.

"This is really great. I think it won't take long before the troubles caused by Zhang Heng this time will be wiped out." Sun Ce said with a smile.

Ma Hewen smiled and said: "This is indeed good news. As long as this matter calms down, we will be able to get through this difficulty."

After saying that, Ma Hewen took out a letter from his arms and handed it to Sun Ce, saying: "This is the letter that the young master gave you. He wants you to go to Shi Kefa to discuss the resettlement of the victims."

"The matter of resettling the victims? Why, Zizheng still wants to take care of this matter?" Sun Ce said with some worry after receiving the letter.

The reason why the imperial court wanted to deal with Fuguoshe and Li Yi this time was because Li Yi's reputation among the victims was too high, which posed a threat to the imperial court.

Now Zizheng still wants to take on the heavy responsibility of rescuing the victims, but Sun Ce is afraid that there will be another disturbance.

Ma Hewen saw Sun Ce's expression and understood what he was thinking.

Indeed, Zhang Heng's series of attacks this time brought great losses to the Fuguo Society. Not only were the shops sealed and trade routes banned, but even the members were arrested. The reputation of the Fuguo Society suffered a heavy blow.

A blow. If it weren't for the young master to pull out all the money and exert pressure from the capital, Fuguoshe might have been doomed now. It's no wonder that Sun Ce was still frightened.

"Brother Qianhe, you don't need to worry too much. The pressure exerted by the court this time is because we only wanted to relieve the victims and forgot to eliminate the hidden dangers, so the court was worried about our intentions. In the next step of relieving the victims, we will use the court officials as our

Lord, we will help in the middle. In this way, the imperial court will gain a good reputation, we will complete the purpose of assisting the national society, and we will no longer leave any excuse for others." Ma Hewen explained.'

After saying this, Sun Ce understood and couldn't help but secretly admire Li Yi's sharp vision.

"If the imperial court really wants to gain fame, it should provide relief to the victims. How could so many things happen in this case?" Sun Cerium said.

Ma Hewen could only smile and did not answer.

Although Sun Zhen is the Prime Minister of the Fuguo Society, he is too young and cannot understand the depth of many things.

Speaking of this, Sun Ce suddenly asked: "Has Zizheng ever said how to deal with the Wang family and others after this incident is over?"

Ma Hewen said with a smile: "I didn't say this, but I think the young master will not let them off easily. How did Brother Qianhe think of this?"

Sun Ce smiled and said: "Today, He Yaozu from the He family came to our door, using the guise of discussing something to inquire about the news about the Fuguo Society."

Ma Hewen smiled and didn't care too much, "Although He Yaozu didn't join our Fuguo Society, he has always been a close person, so he may care about us."

Sun Zhen smiled coldly and said disdainfully: "Just that kind of dandy? I think he must be a spy sent by the He family to find out the traces of our Fuguo Society and tell Zhang Heng. Brother He Wen, don't be fooled.

He lied."

The smile on Ma Hewen's face was slightly stiff. He had been in the world for so long, and he had never seen anyone, and now he was taught a lesson by Sun Ce.

At that moment, he said softly: "Although He Yaozu was uneducated and incompetent in the past, he just didn't know his own ambitions. Now he wants to enter the Fuguo Society and become an outstanding figure respected by the people. We should give him a chance."

Hearing that Ma Hewen believed in any Yaozu, Sun Ce was a little angry and argued forcefully: "Brother He Wen cannot be deceived by him. If you let this kind of dandy enter the Fuguo Society, he will become a black sheep."

Ma Hewen still had a good impression of He Yaozu, and he also disagreed with Sun Ce's words. He couldn't help but said: "Brother Qianhe also hung out in the romantic literary society at the beginning. Later, he established the Fuguo Society with the young master, and he also became a

He is an outstanding person who is respected by others. Since being modest is okay, why can’t He Yaozu be okay?”

Ma Hewen looked at Sun Cerium with cold eyes, waiting for his answer.

Sun Ce felt uncomfortable with the gaze, and said angrily: "The He family's treachery, how can you compare it with me. If He Yaozu wants to join the Fuguo Society, I will be the first to refuse."

After saying that, he left with an angry look on his face.

Ma Hewen looked at Sun Cerium's back and sighed slightly.

Sun Ce was quick-minded and grew up very quickly after taking charge of Fuguoshe. However, his shortcomings were gradually exposed. That is, he was somewhat narrow-minded, self-righteous, and often looked at people with prejudice.

These shortcomings are inappropriate and will definitely lead to great chaos in Fuguo society in the future.

On the other side, He Yaozu left the Sun Mansion with a lonely face and could only wander on the street.

The reason he came here this time was to let Fuguoshe stop his father and brother's conspiracy. As a result, Sun Ce did not listen to his advice and did not tell him the whereabouts of other members of Fuguoshe. In this case, what should he do?

He Yaozu originally wanted to go back and continue to persuade Sun Cerium, but thinking about the contemptuous eyes and mocking tone, he no longer had such plans.

Now he began to wonder whether he had done something wrong. On the one hand, he had betrayed his father and brother, and on the other hand, Sun Ce had humiliated him in every possible way. Why did he still want to help Fuguoshe?

With such suspicion, He Yaozu rode his horse to the city gate.

When he arrived at the city gate, because there were too many people leaving the city, he took a casual look, but a person jumped into his eyes instantly.

Wang Jin, wearing gray armor, was standing inside the city gate, directing the people to leave the city.

He Yaozu had been to Anxin and met Wang Jin, and knew that this man was Li Yi's cousin.

At that moment, an idea suddenly came to his mind. If Wang Jin was told about this matter, as Li Yi's cousin, he would definitely not sit idly by and do nothing. Moreover, Wang Jin was on patrol and could mobilize his soldiers, so it was possible to stop it.

All this.

With this idea in mind, He Yaozu suddenly became excited. He jumped off the horse, pulled the reins and walked up.

Wang Jin also saw He Yaozu. When He Yaozu was captured and worked as a coolie in Anxin, the two of them had talked.

"Master He, are you leaving the city?" Wang Jin said hello.

He Yaozu glanced around, looked at Wang Jin and said, "Brother Wang, what are you doing?"

He wants to know whether Wang Jin has the ability to prevent the assassination. This is the question he is most eager to find out at the moment.

"The world is in chaos these days, and the city defense manpower is insufficient. The prefect asked us to help." Wang Jin smiled heartily, pointing proudly at the busy soldiers around him and said, "I am just leading a few subordinates to maintain order."

He Yaozu turned his head, but there were more than a dozen people busy inside and outside the city gate. Unlike the guard soldiers who were wearing tattered armor and standing lazily on the roadside, Wang Jin's soldiers were all wearing clean cloth armor uniforms.

He was holding a waist knife in his hand, and his energy and energy were much better than those of the guardsmen.

"I wonder how many soldiers Brother Wang has under his command now?" He Yaozu asked.

Wang Jin smiled and said: "Not many, only about twenty people."

After speaking, he looked at He Yaozu, who had a deep look on his face, and couldn't help but ask: "Master He, you look like something is wrong?"

He Yaozu expressed his gratitude, but still felt a little hesitant in his heart.

When Wang Jin saw it, he understood. It seemed that He Yaozu was in trouble, so he didn't continue to ask.

He Yaozu was torn in his heart. If the matter was about to come, if he informed Wang Jin at this time, he would probably be able to stop his father and brother's conspiracy. However, he was afraid of bringing disaster to his family, and he couldn't help but worry.

But for his own sake, his father and brother also wanted to use Zhang Heng's death, Li Yi, to cause trouble, which really made him dissatisfied. Even if he didn't know it, how could he just sit back and do nothing if he knew it.

Thinking of this, He Yaozu suddenly turned his head and said: "Brother Wang, please take a step to speak."

When Wang Jin heard this, he narrowed his eyes and followed He Yaozu into the corner without saying much.

"Master He, please tell me if you have something to do." Wang Jin said.

He Yaozu looked worried and said after hearing this: "The situation in Baoding Mansion has been turbulent recently. Does Brother Wang know about it?"

Wang Jin remained calm and said: "The number of thieves and bandits in Baoding Prefecture has increased recently, so it is naturally turbulent. This official also knows about it."

He Yaozu shook his head and said: "That's not what I'm talking about. Doesn't Brother Wang know about Zhang Heng's deal with Li Yi?"

Wang Jin didn't know why He Yaozu asked like this. Of course he knew about it. It's just that he had left Anxin and could not help Li Yi, and Li Wensheng could not do anything big, so he was only asked to maintain law and order, so he had not participated in this incident.

In the midst of a battle of wits.

"I've heard a little bit about this, but I wonder why Master He suddenly asked about it?" Wang Jin asked.

He Yaozu looked around and whispered: "I came to see Brother Wang this time because I have something important to tell you."

Wang Jin remained calm and listened quietly.

"I learned that someone wanted to kill Zhang Heng on the road and put the blame on Li Yi." He Yaozu said in a low voice,

When Wang Jin heard the news, his expression changed, and he was obviously a little surprised.

But he was not stunned. After he came to his senses, he chuckled and said: "Master He, why do you frame me like this? If this is true, you should report it to the official, or go to my cousin and tell me what's wrong.

usefulness."

Seeing that Wang Jin didn't believe it, He Yaozu became even more anxious.

He hurriedly said: "Of course I have looked for him, but Li Yi is now in prison, and Sun Cerium of the Fuguo Society does not believe me. Now I have no choice but to tell you because you are Li Yi's cousin."

Wang Jin saw that He Yaozu looked anxious and didn't seem to be faking it. He believed it for a while, but still said: "Even if it is true, you should still complain to the official. How can you come here to find me? What can I do?"

He Yaozu's face froze and he hesitated to answer.

But it was this reaction that made Wang Jin feel even more convinced.

It seems that He Yaozu has a secret that is hard to tell and cannot be sued to the official. In this case, there must be something hidden in it.

His expression remained unmoved, but his mind was in full swing.

In order to become an official, he left Anxin and worked under Li Wensheng. However, after entering the officialdom, he realized that there were rules for promotion and meritorious service. As a young officer like himself, with no power and power, he had no chance at all.

Now Li Wensheng looks unreliable, but his brother Li Yi is becoming more and more prosperous, and even Zhang San is leading a battalion of soldiers. If he is still like this, he will probably become a laughing stock when we meet him in the future.

Wang Jin thought to himself that unlike He Yaozu, he only wanted to solve the conspiracy. In his opinion, there was an opportunity in this conspiracy. As long as he seizes this opportunity, he can go further.

Thinking of this, Wang Jin gritted his teeth and said: "No matter what, someone wants to harm my brother Li Yi. As a cousin, I will never agree. I will go with my troops to stop such a traitor."

Hearing that Wang Jin was willing to stop him, He Yaozu was overjoyed and said quickly: "Zhang Heng's carriage set off this morning. If you hurry up and catch up, you will definitely be able to catch up before dark."

Wang Jin looked shy when he heard this and said: "Although I have a mount, all my men are infantry. How can I find a war horse to take my place now?"

He Yaozu was also anxious after hearing this.

At this time Wang Jin said: "The city defense officers and soldiers have more than ten war horses. I can try to borrow them, but I hope Brother He will be my guarantee."
