Chen Yun's complexion changed drastically, he stood up in a gaffe, and asked sharply: "What did you say!! Say it again!!"

Ever since they were caught here, they didn't see Chen Yunjue showing too many other expressions. Suddenly seeing Chen Yunjue's mood fluctuating so much, the two servants were so frightened that their faces turned pale. How terrible.

The boy was trembling with fear, but he didn't dare not say, "Young master, you smoke opium, and you even gather the young masters from other families to smoke opium in private, and sell them the opium."

Chen Yun only felt that his eyes were dark.

Smoking is extremely harmful. Even in modern times, it is severely cracked down every year, and countless people sacrifice for it every year, but there are still people who continue to fight for huge benefits.

His face was livid, and he almost couldn't stand still.

"Who did you sell your son to? Tell me!!"

Seeing that Chen Yunjue's emotions were so out of control, Xie Xiuyun's expression also became serious, "Yunyu, calm down."

Chen Yun took a few deep breaths, said with a livid face, "Fu Rong, ask all about opium." Then, rubbing his forehead, he turned and entered the room.

Seeing that Chen Yun was in a bad mood, Xie Xiuyun hurriedly turned around and followed in.

"Yunjue, what's the matter?" Xie Xiuyun entered the room and saw Chen Yunjue pouring water to drink.

After drinking a few cups of ice-cold tea, Chen Yun calmed down a bit.

He sat at the table, supported his head, and sighed, "Brother Xiuyun, have you never heard of opium?"

"I've been traveling all these years, but I've never heard of it. What is this big smoke? Why do you react so strongly?" Xie Xiuyun was very puzzled.

Chen Yun said with a wry smile, "The danger of this opium can destroy the country."

Xie Xiuyun's face changed when he heard the words, "So scary?"

"Brother Xiuyun, have you ever heard of five stone powder?"

This five-stone powder was originally a medicine used by the ancients to treat typhoid fever, but it was later regarded as a status symbol. At least hundreds of thousands of people died because of the five-stone powder.

In this dynasty, Wushi powder has become a contraband.

Xie Xiuyun frowned, "Is the big smoke made of five stone powder?"

"That's not the case." Chen Yun shook his head, "This opium is made from a drug extracted from an addictive plant. It was also used as a drug at first, but it is extremely addictive, stronger than arsenic and frost. A hundred times more vicious, it will eat away at people's minds.

Even God of War will lose his fighting spirit after taking this thing, and he can never leave it again. Once he breaks this thing, life is worse than death. "m.bīQikμ.ИěΤ.

Xie Xiuyun frowned, "Why have I never heard of it before?"

Chen Yunjue, "I also read it from some miscellaneous books. This thing was popular in the previous dynasty, but it was not widespread."

This thing was originally used as medicine, but now some people use it to make opium and sell it to others. The nature of this is completely different.

This matter must not be tolerated.

Chen Yun couldn't help but feel his scalp tingle when he thought of the war caused by the opium. How long has this thing been passed down in the family?

"What are you going to do?" Xie Xiuyun didn't know how to deal with it, so he couldn't help asking with a headache.

Chen Yun took a deep breath, "I'll write a letter back to Beijing to elder brother after Brother Fu Rong asks clearly."

Such a big matter, he can't solve it, and the country must come forward to rectify it vigorously.

Not long after, Fu Rong came over to answer, recorded all the information on the paper, and handed it over to Chen Yun for reference.

Chen Yun looked at the stack of papers, shaking his hands while turning them over.

This is basically a list. Most of the people recorded on it are gentry and country gentry, as well as some wealthy businessmen. This big smoke is already a hard commodity that is secretly circulated, a symbol of status.

This is just the information that a servant knows, and it is already so terrifying.

With a pale face, Chen Yun took a deep breath, took the stack of papers, went out, and looked at the two servants who were almost paralyzed on the ground with a cold face.

"Your sins are unforgivable. I can't cure you of the Gu worm now. You can go now. You know what to do about today's matter."

These two servants are Mr. Gao's personal servants. They will not be noticed if they disappear for one night, but they will definitely arouse Mr. Gao's vigilance if they disappear for a few days.

Anyway, there is a threat from Gu insects, they dare not tell Mr. Gao.

What's more, they have betrayed Mr. Gao by telling so many things today, even if they were asked to say it, they would not dare to say it.

When the two young men left, Chen Yun immediately returned to the inn with Xie Xiuyun. He wrote down the dangers of opium in a letter in detail, put the list in the letter, and ordered Fu Rong to send it back to the capital without delay.

Rubbing the forehead, Chen Yun was in a mess in his head.

"Yunyu, don't worry, maybe things are not that bad." Xie Xiuyun comforted.

Chen Yunteng forced a smile, "Thank you Brother Xiuyun, I understand."

He wanted to say, you haven't seen the horror of big smoke, but he was afraid that Xie Xiuyun would say, you haven't seen it, so how do you know it's terrible.He had no choice but to suppress his worries in his heart and wait for his brother's response.

Early the next morning, Qing Mo entered the house, "Second Master, everything is packed."

"After packing up, let's go to Jiangdu."

They originally left Jiangdu County, but they didn't expect to encounter this kind of thing again after leaving, so they had to return to Jiangdu.

Whether it's Mr. Cui's case or Dayan, they have to start investigations in Jiangdu. His current list is all Jiangdu's country gentry.

When he arrived in Jiangdu County, Chen Yun borrowed Xie Xiuyun's help to steal some big cigarettes, sealed them up, then wrote a letter to his eldest brother, and ordered them to send them back to the capital quickly.

Only he explained how powerful the opium is. Without samples, there is no intuitive understanding. Nowadays, it is inevitable to experiment with small animals. Such things as opium must be banned, and those who sell opium must be banned. Behead your head and kill chickens to make an example to monkeys.

Chen Yunjue could only hope that his elder brother would persuade the emperor.

In this kind of feudal society, only when the emperor orders and strictly prohibits it, can the opium be cleaned up in a legitimate way.

Compared with Big Smoke, Mr. Cui's matter is just a trivial matter.

It was indeed a trivial matter, Chen Yun only had to reveal his identity, and asked the county magistrate to release Cui Rong from the prison.

He was wronged in the first place, and there was no real evidence at all. The so-called evidence was all fabricated by the Gao family. It was just that the county magistrate colluded with the Gao family, and Cui Rong was murdered so miserably.

Cui Rong didn't know why he was released. He was imprisoned for four or five years. The tall and handsome young man was already extremely weak, very weak. Chen Yun bought a small courtyard in Jiangdu County and placed Cui Rong In the yard, out of sympathy, he was decocted with spiritual water every day to drink. After two days, his complexion improved a lot, but the internal wear and tear still needed to be nourished for a long time.

On this day, Mr. Cui, who went to the city to visit his son, went to the county government prison, but heard that his son had been released and was picked up by a young man.

He was stunned for a long time, crying outside the prison, and was about to find out where his son had been picked up, when a familiar boy came forward.

"Mr. Cui, my son is here to invite you."

After picking up the man's son, Mr. Cui, who would come to visit his son every few days, would definitely run away, so Chen Yun naturally sent a servant to wait outside the prison of the county government, and invited him to come when he saw Mr. Cui.

Chen Yunzai waited at home for news of Fu Rong all day long, but the journey was far away, and it would take at least ten days to go back and forth. Chen Yunzai was so anxious that he almost got angry.

He didn't wait for Fu Rong, but Mr. Cui.

"Second Master, Mr. Cui is here."

"Mr. Cui, please come in."

When Mr. Cui entered the main room, he immediately knelt down. Chen Yun was startled, and hurried forward to help him up.

He is very strong, Mr. Cui could not resist Chen Yunju's strength even if he wanted to kneel, he looked at Chen Yunju with surprise, as if he didn't expect Chen Yunju to be so strong when he looked thin.

"The old man has broken me, you are kneeling, you want to shorten my life." Chen Yun said with a wry smile.

Mr. Cui also smiled wryly, "For most of my life, I have had a pair of very filial sons and a well-behaved daughter, but once I offended a villain, the family was ruined, and only the eldest son was left in the prison. I don't understand , why does Mr. Gao refuse to let my son go, my son has lost his fame and can no longer take the exam, and he still refuses to hold his hands high..."

As he spoke, Mr. Cui began to cry.

Mr. Cui's words also reminded Chen Yunjue that if he framed Mr. Cui at the beginning, it was only because he was afraid that he would win the Jinshi exam and take revenge after entering the court as an official, but after entering the prison, Mr. Cui's reputation has been dismissed. If you have missed the imperial examination, why do you want to kill them all?

Chen Yun felt a little bit in his heart, always feeling that something was overlooked by him.

He rubbed the center of his brows, and suppressed the bad premonition in his heart, "Mr. Cui must be very worried about Mr. Ling, why don't you follow me to meet?"

"Thank you, young master, but..." Mr. Cui wiped his tears, "I am ashamed, when I saw the young master's extraordinary clothes, I wanted to ask for help. Young master... The Cui family has nothing to repay your great kindness and virtue."

"I'm helping because I don't like the Gao family's bullying, and I don't want you to repay..." Chen Yun waved his hand and took Mr. Cui to meet Cui Rong in the west wing.

Although Cui Rong's complexion improved a lot, after all, he had been imprisoned for four or five years, and his body suffered a lot.

Even if he drank the decoction made from spiritual water for two days, it only made his complexion much better, and he couldn't move freely.

"Master Ling has suffered a serious physical loss, I'm afraid he will have to lie down for a while longer." Chen Yun excused.

Mr. Cui said, "The medicine is expensive, so I don't dare to bother you anymore. When I take the child home, I will do my best to treat him." With red eyes, Mr. Cui held his son's hand, weeping uncontrollably.

Cui Rong's eyes were also red, but she didn't know what to say.

Chen Yun sighed, "Old man, it's not that I don't want you father and son to be reunited, it's really... this medicine is too expensive, I'm afraid your family can't afford it, save people to the end, send Buddha to the west, since I save people Now that I’m back, I can’t let God ask for it anymore.”

Mr. Cui was even more embarrassed when he heard the words, "This...Young Master saved my son, it is already a great kindness, how can you go further and let the young master heal my son?"

"Okay, okay, I also admire Mr. Cui. He was imprisoned wrongly. Not everyone can survive such a tragedy. Mr. Ling is really talented. It's a pity... I will find a way to clean up for him. Fame, return his fame."

In the beginning, Chen Yunjue was really moved by compassion for a moment, and only saved him because he sympathized with Cui Rong.

But after rescuing him, he found that Cui Rong was indeed a strong-willed talent, and he was moved to love talent.

He has never had any useful people in his hands, isn't Cui Rong the one who sent him to his door?

"This..." Mr. Cui's eyes were red, "Thank you for your kindness, my lord."

He really didn't know how to thank Chen Yunjue for being able to easily rescue his son under the power of the Gao family. This young master must have a background no worse than that of the Gao family. With such a person, he never dared to hope to have any contact with him in the past.

Chen Yun ignored Mr. Cui's gratitude. He looked at Cui Rong and asked, "Young Master Cui, I was reminded by your father just now, but I thought of a question. You have already been expelled. Logically speaking, there are no more Threats, but the Gao family is still killing them all, then you must have touched their interests, think carefully about how to offend them?"
