Zhao Ce rode a fast horse to the small village outside Qingzhou.

The village is not very big, but there are many fields.

The villagers were all controlled and waiting to be dealt with.

Zhao Ce appeared at the scene.

I wanted to call the Jinyiwei, who was in charge, and ask about the situation here.

The Jinyiwei who led the team this time is named Xie.

He and his men did it when he cleaned up Yan Li’s eyes last night.

After receiving the news early this morning, Zhao Ce sent him here.

After someone else went to inform him, Zhao Ce looked at the villagers surrounded by officers and soldiers.

Xiang Qian's voice was very loud and he was yelling fiercely: "Damn it, how can you not report to the court if you have such a large amount of money to your village?"

"I sent someone to the village to search twice. Do you dare to help hide it?"

A man named Qian is tall and has a fierce face.

Ordinary peasant family members are afraid of officials when they see them.

Now I heard that their village has become a place where taxes and silver are hiding, and all of them are going to die.

Many people were sobbing in fear, or watching the officers and soldiers tremble.

Some people even collapsed and cried with their heads in their heads.

But among this group of people, some people were numb and seemed not afraid at all.

And there are more than one or two such people.

Xiangqian was upset by their quarrels, and he had been staying up late in investigating the case recently.

"Shut them all!"

"Tell everything they know, otherwise none of them will escape!"

Seeing this, the officers and soldiers next to them pulled out the knife in their hands and threatened: "Whoever quarreled will kill you!"

"Whatever you ask, you will answer!"

The scene has only become much quieter.

The officers and soldiers asked questions one by one, but basically no one said anything useful.

soon.

Xie Qianhu brought his men to Zhao Ce.

Zhao Ce withdrew his gaze and asked, "It seems that something is strange in this village, but what has been found?"

Xie Qianhu said: "Marty, there is indeed a problem."

"Please follow the official."

The two walked to a private house with the door open, and Xie Qianhu took Zhao Ce directly to a room.

Inside the room, there is a lifelike portrait of Maitreya Buddha hanging, with fragrance and tributes in front.

"Buddha?"

A possibility suddenly flashed in Zhao Ce's mind.

Xie Qianhu spoke up and confirmed his conjecture.

"In this village, some people believe in the White Lotus Sect."

Zhao Ce knew it in his heart when he thought of the villagers who had a numb face in the crowd just now and was not afraid of death.

"So, this batch of tax silver may have been slaughtered..."

These people wanted to use this matter to shake the court's decision.

However, the person who made the game eventually became the person in the game.

Zhao Ce asked: "When was it transported away?"

Xie Qianhu said: "It should be a few days ago."

"The roads around are not covered by the wheels of heavy objects."

"The only possibility is to go through the water."

It was transported away a few days ago, so it will probably take some time to investigate.

but......

With such a large sum of money, they dare to go into shady like this. Could it be that they want to do something big, right?

The more Zhao Ce thought about it, the worse it was.

This trip was originally on the way home.

If you fight, you will definitely not be able to leave casually.

No, you can't let them do something like this and delay their trip!

"grown ups......"

An Jinyiwei outside walked in quickly.

He whispered a few words to Zhao Ce and the others.

"My uncle secretly ran out of the capital and the boat he was on was docking in Jinan Prefecture."

"The men sent by His Majesty to intercept the fast horses have not found his trace."

"There was news just now, saying that I either came to our Qingzhou or went to Yuzhou."

Xie Qianhu was shocked.

The discovery of the White Lotus Sect here shows that there is a high possibility of turmoil here.

What if Zhu Houzhao is accidentally involved?

"What did he do here?"

"No, the tax and silver affairs must be put aside first, transfer all the Jinyiwei back and find the young master!"

When Zhao Ce heard this news, he was a little helpless.

I originally thought that Zhu Houzhao had matured a little during this period, but I didn't expect that this would still be the case.

His Majesty was sick, so he couldn't wait to run out.

Now that Qingzhou is in strict investigation, he will definitely not run here.

There are many levels in Jinan Prefecture, and there is basically nothing fun for the time being.

Yuzhou...

Zhao Ce thought of the one who pretended to be a ghost that day, and asked Zhu Hou to rebel on a big deal.

No need to think about it, it must have been taken there.

After all, when Zhao Chenghe was in the capital, his ability to pretend to be a god made Zhu Houzhao unable to help tease him from time to time.

Xie Qianhu was nervously allocating personnel, and Zhao Ce next to him suddenly spoke.

"Xie Qianhu wait."

"Your Highness must have gone to Yuzhou."

"Yuzhou?"

Lu Song was following up about Zhao Chenghe at that time.

Although Xie Qianhu knew a little, he was not clear about it.

After hearing Zhao Ce talk about this, he wanted to take someone to fly to Zhu Houzhao immediately.

"You have to set out quickly and secretly take me back."

"If it is a big fantasy arouses suspicion, I'm afraid I'm going to be in danger!"

Zhao Ce pondered for a moment and said, "You should check Zhao Chenghe's hometown, it should be nearby."

After thinking about it, these Jinyiwei may not be able to call Zhu Houzhao.

Although Zhao Ce did not think Zhu Houzhao would listen to him, he had always been a little trick to convince (coax) him.

"Prepare, I will go to Yuzhou with you to find Your Highness."

......

And Zhu Houzhao at this time.

After the boat he was on arrived in Jinan Prefecture, he got off the boat early.

He had expected the person who came to intercept him.
