"Master Zhu, thank you very much!"

Lord Jingzhao Yinji came to his senses and bowed sincerely.

Zhu San turned aside and did not accept it, but said with a smile: "Master Ji, what do you mean by this? I didn't say anything."

Then he said goodbye.

Lord Jingzhao Yinji stood there for a while and sighed sincerely: No wonder he is so valued by His Majesty, this Lord Zhu is really not sober!

One day, he will surely leap like a dragon and a fish, and he will become a close minister before the emperor.

After returning, Mr. Jingzhao Yinji immediately interrogated the dozen local gangsters, checked their confessions, and sent people to conduct a serious investigation.

In fact, the case is not complicated. Neither Brother Zhao nor Xiao Gouzi are particularly tight-lipped people. After being threatened by Zhu Liu for a while, they have already confessed what they should.

Therefore, during Lord Jingzhao Yinji's first interrogation, they were like deflated balloons, answering whatever they asked and not daring to hide anything.

The ancestors of the Hao family in the capital once had high-ranking officials, and were considered the founding fathers of Dayan.

It's a pity that the ancestor of the Hao family was a military officer, and his health was already broken due to long years of fighting. He passed away before his children could grow up.

Then the Hao family transferred civil servants.

Following the last words of their ancestors, the Hao family made many efforts, but always fell short in the imperial examination. Either they did not even get into the imperial examination, or they got in on the wrong foot.

There are talented people in every generation, but when it comes to doing things, they can't compare to others.

Gradually, the Hao family guarded an old house left by their ancestors and declined.

In Hao Xiaoxiao's generation, Mr. Hao could still hold a post in the Ministry of Rites, but he became a confused official and was fired within a few years for making mistakes.

Uncle Hao was very depressed, his health was not good, and he was not even active in making babies.

Hao Xiaoxiao became the only son and the only legitimate son of this generation of the Hao family (he also had a younger brother who was born as a concubine and was not favored).

When Mrs. Hao saw that Uncle Hao was in bad health because of studying and serving as an official, she was afraid that Hao Xiaoxiao would suffer from physical problems, so she had a fight with Mr. Hao and did not force Hao Xiaoxiao to study.

No one forced him to study, and he grew up pampered. Hao Xiaoxiao felt no pressure at all.

When I was a child, I was very clever and made the whole family happy. As I got older, I only had some cleverness left.

Therefore, he wanted to be the oriole behind Wo Yushu.

That day, seeing the gang of local gangsters he paid to bribe being caught, Hao Xiaoxiao was frightened and ran away without saying a word.

He was very lucky. Fortunately, he used a false identity when he went to kill people, otherwise...

Unfortunately, what Hao Xiaoxiao didn't expect was that although he used a false identity, the money bag he used to give the money showed flaws.

The Hao family has declined and is not a particularly big family, but the legacy left by the ancestors is still there. In addition, the Hao family has the "bad habit" of taking dowries from their wives. The following daughters-in-law are all of low status, but their dowries are

rich.

The dowry was generous, and the Hao family's wealth continued from one generation to the next, reaching Hao Xiaoxiao.

Hao Xiaoxiao's food and clothing were not always top-notch since he was a child, but they were better. The money bag he used was made of high-quality fabrics and he hired a top-notch embroiderer.

Mr. Jingzhao Yinji found the money bag from the local gangster, followed this line and found the cloth shop and the embroiderer, and then he took it to the Hao family.

Hao Xiaoxiao was forcibly "invited" and asked to identify him.

"What are you doing?!"

"Let go of my grandson!"

"You are crazy! Do you know who our ancestor is? You dare to arrest my grandson. I will file a lawsuit!"

…

When Mrs. Hao saw that Hao Xiaoxiao was taken away, she quickly stopped him.

When he failed to stop him, he yelled and cursed.

She was anxious and angry, so she sent someone to ask for Mr. Hao, and to retrieve Mr. Hao who had not returned from his trip and didn't know where he was.

Mr. Hao is also a pitiful man. He is still occupying a pit despite his age, but he just doesn't dare to retreat.

There is no way, the son's official position has been beaten, and the grandson hasn't gotten up yet. If he withdraws, the Hao family will really have no place.

No matter what, Mr. Hao plans to hold on until Hao Xiaoxiao grows up and lets his grandson do his job before retreating.

Seeing that Hao Xiaoxiao was getting older and could not find a suitable marriage, Mr. Hao was very distressed. He even shyly talked to his colleagues in the Ministry of Rites, trying to find out about his niece.

His official position is low, and the family's legitimate daughter is not expected. The dowry of a concubine's daughter is too thin, so it is okay to choose a niece who is not high enough but has family wealth and is married to her, right?

That's it, people showed a bit of displeasure when they heard it, changed the topic, and just didn't pick up the conversation.

Are you kidding me?

Who doesn’t know the virtues of that boy from the Hao family?

If you are not good at being a father, you are not good at being a son. With the shadow of your ancestors so thin, who would be a fool to marry a girl to the Hao family?

Some people also kindly hinted to Mr. Hao that he should stop staring at his colleagues like them. Given the conditions of the Hao family, it would be better to go down.

Mr. Hao became angry when he heard this: "What do you mean? What happened to my grandson? What's wrong with my grandson? Is he missing an arm or a leg, which makes you look down on him so much?"

The well-meaning colleagues immediately shut up and did not dare to say any more.

After Mr. Hao left angrily, someone else said to the kind colleague just now: "You... just like to be nosy. Who in this yard doesn't know that person named Hao? He is quite old. If it weren't for the war,

With the shadow of our ancestors, we have been driven out long ago."

"Alas...he always stares at the people in the yard. Isn't this... a kind reminder?"

"If he had known himself, he would have understood it when he was rejected for the first time. Since he didn't give up, it meant that others were unhappy and wanted to climb high, but he didn't even look at it. As for his grandson, he needs to be capable.

No, who in our courtyard would marry a girl to their family if they didn’t have any money? It’s just that the family didn’t think much about it, and they would only consider their family if they really had no choice. But if someone is willing, even someone named Hao won’t.

I'm glad, people have high standards."

…

On the other side, Mr. Hao had just arrived at the door and saw his boy standing there with an anxious look on his face.

"master……"

As soon as he saw Mr. Hao coming out, the boy quickly came up and told the story about Hao Xiaoxiao being captured by Jing Zhaoyin.

"What?!" Mr. Hao looked shocked and quickly asked for leave from his boss.

As soon as he walked away, someone came over and asked what happened and why Mr. Hao looked so anxious.

The boss also didn't like Mr. Hao, an old man who relied on his elders and always relied on him in the department, so he didn't hide it for him.

All of a sudden, the entire Ministry of Rites knew that the precious grandson of the "old man" family of the Ministry of Rites was in prison.

"Oh, I knew that boy from his family must not be a good guy. Look, he got in, right?"

"He has the nerve to ask other girls who wants to marry the girl into their family. Isn't this harmful? Who dares to agree?"

"What do you think his grandson committed?"

"Who else could those gangsters be? Either they stole chickens, they touched dogs, or they molested some girl... I guess they kicked the iron plate."

…

Someone doesn't know the truth about themselves.

Mr. Hao headed to Jingzhao Yin anxiously, but what he didn't expect was that when he arrived there, Mr. Jingzhao Yinji didn't give him any face at all, and he didn't even meet him.

When asked again what happened to the errand, the errand did not explain clearly. He only said that Hao Xiaoxiao kicked a metal plate while teasing the girl and was sued by his family.

"How is that possible?!"

Mr. Hao didn't believe it at all. His grandson was a bit naughty, but he was not a lecher. How could he go to jail for something like this?
