Maid, Little Lucky Wife

Chapter 129 Rebellion

The people in Sequoia are good at interrogating prisoners. Several gangsters told them all, and the prisoners were tortured until they were inhuman shape.

I originally wanted to keep one or two of them and punish them on the spot, but the testimony of one of them forced me to change my mind.

Mo Xuan came to Sequoia and looked at the not particularly old man in front of him.

He asked the same question as Hong Ying, "Do you think this man is the youngest son of the Imperial Censor?"

Haishang couldn't help but glare at him. Are they questioning her ability?

"This person was the first to be unable to withstand the interrogation, and the first to speak out!"

"Is there any proof?"

Seeing the frightened look on the son of the Censor of the Metropolitan Procuratorate, it was really hard to relate to his father.

Mo Xuan met the Censor of the Metropolitan Procuratorate. He seemed to be a very decent man. His back house was relatively clean and he had not many wives and concubines. Most importantly, the rumors among the people were very good and he was quite popular among the people.

I really didn't expect that the Censor of the Metropolitan Procuratorate would actually be involved in the matter of Fenghuang Village. What about the third prince?How much did you participate in?

The Censor of the Metropolitan Procuratorate was sent by the Third Prince. Since he was involved, did the Third Prince really not know about it?

"Of course there is. Our people found a jade pendant from him, with his name written on it, and the officials' children are all registered with the court. There can't be any fraud!"

Haishang said angrily.

Mo Xuan glanced at her unconsciously, what happened to this person?Could it be that Hong Ying provoked her?Really, can’t your woman be coaxed?

He kept complaining in his heart, but Mo Xuan didn't show it on his face. If he said this, he would probably fight Haishang for [-] rounds, and Hong Ying would not let him go.

The relationship between the two is also complicated. They clearly understand each other's intentions, but no one breaks the window.

"Then let's do this. Keep the two people who are in contact with the Master, and send the rest to the Marquis' place of exile for them to handle."

Haishang nodded and ordered people to go down and prepare.

Mo Xuan warned again, "This group of people are crazy and can do anything. Be careful when transporting!"

"Don't worry, Sequoia is very safe in doing things. We also have some poisons. If you take one, you will only have the energy to eat, drink and relieve yourself!"

Haishang thought sadly, how about giving Hong Ying a try someday?How dare you refuse to admit your mistake?

I don’t know what the other person is thinking, but it is most likely about Hong Ying.

He sympathized with Hong Ying. He would probably be henpecked with such a woman in the future.

Three days later, a group of caravans were ready to go. Because they were going to the far north, it would get colder and colder, so everyone had to prepare a lot of cotton-padded clothes and charcoal for the winter.

There is none in Li County, and very few are sold here. Only restaurants have charcoal.

The caravan will go nearby to buy.

The caravan took the goods and silk belonging to this side, pretended to be the gangsters, and left. Of course, there were many guards.

Mo Xuan doesn't care what happens after the person is sent away, and he doesn't care what the Marquis and the Crown Prince will think when they receive the person. The credit has been given to you, can he still feed him?

The master secretly stirred up trouble, and Mo Xuan also lost his patience, so he might as well solve it.

On this day, there was news in Li County that the disaster relief silver coins issued by the imperial court had been embezzled, and it was pointed out that the surrounding villages did not make any big moves and would not use too much silver coins. Even if they had account books, they were fake.

The village chiefs of several villages gathered together and brought along a well-respected old man from Li County to go directly to the government office and ask for the bank to be opened for bank verification.

Mo Xuan rested at home for a few days and just went to work in the government office today.

At a glance, he saw a group of people gathered at the entrance of the government office, and he stepped forward in confusion.

"Old men, why are you here?"

Everyone respected the county magistrate, and one person stepped forward and said, "Sir, we heard that the money for disaster relief was embezzled and is not in the warehouse, so we want to take a look."

"Yes, sir, the silver coins for disaster relief belong to the victims. We are all engaged in construction and there is a shortage of silver coins. I would like to apply for some use."

When Mo Xuan heard this, it made sense. He looked at a government servant who was blocking the door of the government office and said, "Xiaotian, go and open the government office and open the warehouse for everyone to see!"

Then he turned around and said, "If you guys really want to use it, please provide me with the regulations. If it's reasonable, the government will definitely agree."

"Thank you sir!"

Seeing Xiaotian motionless, Mo Xuan's face darkened, "Xiaotian, why haven't you recognized me since I haven't been here for a few days?"

Xiaotian grimaced and muttered, not knowing what to say. It would be nice if Yinliang was still there, but Yinliang was not there and had been taken away.

"Sir, would you please come in first? We'll talk about the rest later?"

Xiao Tian was so anxious that he could only invite the county magistrate in first.

Xiaotian's appearance was noticed by everyone, not only Mo Xuan but also the village chiefs all noticed something.

Everyone looked at each other, and it was unlikely that the rumors were true.

The county magistrate stood in official uniform among the crowd, standing out particularly conspicuously, but the government servants who were supposed to stand beside him stood at the entrance of the government office, each with their heads lowered, not daring to look at him.

"you……"

Mo Xuan was about to get angry when suddenly the master's voice came from behind the crowd, "Master County Master, you haven't been here for a long time. Why are these unruly people surrounding you? Are they rebelling?"

When the real owner arrived, the crowd moved aside automatically.

Mo Xuan narrowed his eyes slightly and looked at the man with his hands behind his back and a slight smile.

Zhang Chao and several subordinates followed the master. Although the master was dressed in ordinary clothes, his aura became fierce.

Mo Xuan couldn't help but snorted, "What? I haven't been here for many days. Did the government office change its name?"

The master always kept a smile, "Of course not, you are still the county magistrate, but you have been missing recently and I don't understand many things. You should go to the government office and I will have a talk with you."

"As for these unruly people..."

The master's icy eyes swept over the crowd, "A crowd is gathering to cause trouble. Although there is a reason for the incident, please come in and have a cup of tea."

There is a prison cell inside. It is impossible to just drink tea. I am afraid that if you go in, you will have to shed your skin even if you don't die. After all, you are not young.

The crowd became commotion, and some people retreated.

Mo Xuan watched with cold eyes and suddenly snorted, "Master, they are just looking at the disaster relief money. The capital has regulations and the people affected by the disaster have the right to know the whereabouts of the money. Do you want to resist the order?"

When the label of disobeying orders was slapped down, people did not feel scared, but smiled even colder.

"Master County, this is Li County, not the capital!"

Mo Xuan couldn't help but nod, "It seems that you are going to rebel?"

"I didn't say that. As long as you stay in your position as the county magistrate and don't care about anything, I won't go against you."

The master in turn threatened.

Mo Xuan was extremely angry and laughed, his expression suddenly became serious, and he raised his voice and said, "Master Liu Zheng conspired to rebel, embezzled money for disaster relief, and took human life seriously. I am now an official of the imperial court, hunting down the rebels. Please congratulate me!"

Mo Xuan held the private seal and a dark yellow silk secret order in his hand.

He unfolded it and said, "Two taels of silver will be transferred from Beijing to Li County for disaster relief. This tael of silver will be used for disaster relief. If you encounter someone who is greedy for ink, you can kill them on the spot. If you encounter a helper, they will be treated as guilty!"
