Chapter 147: Imprisoned (Part 2)

Everyone here knows Li Linghuai, the governor of Yangzhou.

The prefect is a fifth-rank official and the governor is a fourth-rank official. Although it does not prevent some people from holding other official positions, no matter what, at this level, at least they will be remembered by many aristocratic families, and their wealth and background will always be clearly understood.

So when Li Linghuai walked over with a fierce momentum and a large group of soldiers in armor appeared in a semi-encircle to surround him, He Shao was panicked, but after a moment of calm, Li Linghuai's eyes did not look here.

The guard guarding outside the courtyard ran in first and said breathlessly: "Langjun, Erlang, I... we can't stop him."

"Oh, I understand, you go back first." Wang Ningzhi waved his hand and looked at Li Linghuai who had already walked into the living room. "Li Envoy, long time no see."

Li Linghuai was wearing a formal outfit and had a calm and calm face. He nodded to Wang Ningzhi's greeting, but he quickly frowned and said, "Please forgive me, but the prefect of Kuaiji County Wang Ningzhi was related to the case of the Xu family extermination of Yixing County. We have obtained reliable evidence, so... Wang Fujun, please come with us."

Yixing Xu's family exterminated the clan?

The people present were stunned. He Shao looked at Wang Ningzhi in surprise, but saw Wang Ningzhi frowning, and ignored Li Linghuai. Instead, he said to Wang Xizhi: "Don't be impatient, this matter has nothing to do with me, don't worry, I'll go over and see. If there is still something at home, let my father worry for the time being."

After saying that, Wang Ningzhi stood up, glanced at He Shao, He Jin smiled, and said, "Uncle Shi, Brother Hongrui, it seems that what I promised you will be delayed again. My father is not good at dealing with family affairs, so... but don't worry, I will come out in one day at most."

After saying that, he walked to Li Linghuai, stretched out his hand and lit it in the air: "Eunuch Li must want to laugh, but... you have to be sure that the evidence you have can point to me clearly, otherwise, Li must be clear about the result, which will have a great impact on your future."

"It's not time for the king's mansion to worry about you." Li Linghuai said lightly, watching the two soldiers walking on both sides of Wang Ningzhi and walking out together, then nodding at the people present and leaving.

...

Xie Daoyun hurried to Wang Xizhi's residence, walked in without letting the servant report, knocked on Wang Xizhi's study room, and walked in after receiving the approval. He bowed to Wang Xizhi, Xi Xuan looked at the worry on his father and mother's faces, and then closed the door and whispered: "It was not Erlang who did it."

"Although I don't care, I still know that after Xu Heng was imprisoned, Erlang took over the refugee army under his command into the family. That night, hurricane hit, but I heard that those troops had taken action, and it happened that the next day that Xu was destroyed... Do you think there is nothing to do with the two?" Unlike the worry on the face of his wife next to him, Wang Xizhi was a little angry and his voice became a little sharp.

However, Xie Daoyuan's answer was still: "It doesn't matter, it was not Erlang."

"Li Linghuai said he had the evidence."

"It was Erlang who said to me personally. When he said this, he was very confident." Xie Daoyun smiled, "It was not Erlang. So father and mother, there is no need to worry, Erlang will be fine."

Wang Xizhi stared at Xie Daoyun, silent, and nodded after a long time: "I understand, go back, Erlang is in prison, don't be too sad."

"Thank you for your care."

...

On the road leading to the Shanyin Wang Family, a team of soldiers escorted two ox carts and drove slowly.

This is not an ordinary soldier, but a military household who has been soldiers for generations. It is well-equipped and powerful. It is often the elite of a state who is responsible for the military operations of the entire state. Although the county prefect can also be mobilized, in general, it obeys the orders of the governor.

Such a massive arrest operation was spread quickly, but no one here knew how the outside world responded.

But soon, the people who were riding horses around stopped, stopped two ox carts, asked for a while, and informed Li Linghuai about the situation here.

"He family in Lujiang?" Li Linghuai in the car looked unstable and said to the soldiers on the horse, "Have he asked me to discuss what's going on?"

"No." The man replied, "but looking at his expression, he seemed very anxious."

Li Linghuai thought for a while and said, "Let the team stop first, I will see him."

The soldiers quickly passed his orders down, and the team stopped beside the woods. The group of soldiers surrounded two ox carts and were alert to the surroundings. Then, He Shao got out of his cart, entered the area alone, and got on Li Linghuai's ox cart.

This is not the first time the two of them have met, but they have not had much interaction in the past, so they don’t know each other very well.

"What happened to Wang Shuping? Although there have been rumors outside that he had conflicts with Xu,... it was him?" He Shao's face was not very good.

"From the evidence you have, it is undoubtedly Wang Ningzhi." Li Linghuai replied faintly, staring at He Shao. Seeing that his face was really embarrassed, he frowned and asked, "What's the difficult thing about Brother Zile (He Shao's name)? You might as well say it. If you don't say it, I won't be able to answer."

He Shao sighed and said the difficulties He was facing now. The more he spoke, the more angry he became, but he still knew how to control his voice and prevent it from spreading.

"Although I know that Wang Shuping is delaying, but in this situation, I have to rely on him. The wedding date has been set. If I cannot find my little daughter, I will not be able to explain to Duke Huan."

"I'm afraid even if Wang Ningzhi didn't commit a crime and still stayed at home, he would just find a random excuse at that time... The Wang family obviously doesn't want to hand over the person." Li Linghuai stared at He Shao, "Is there no other unmarried noble daughter in Brother Zile's family? Now the Wang family definitely won't be able to hand over the person. I'm afraid that they can only use other noble daughters to replace him."

He Shao looked embarrassed and replied: "It's impossible. The girl in the family is either young and ignorant, or she has married someone else's wife and cannot be replaced - Can Li Jun ask about the whereabouts of the little girl when interrogating Wang Shuping? Find some reasons for the little girl to come forward. If this is the case, I, He, will be grateful."

"Brother Zile is so serious. This is not a difficult thing. Seeing that Wang is so embarrassed by He, I feel unfair. I will definitely help if I can help. However, Wang Ningzhi is not simple, I am afraid that I can't find out why, so... I will find a way to ask, but Brother Zile also needs to make the worst plan."

He Shao finally looked happy, breathed a sigh of relief, and said, "That's so thankful to Li Jun. No matter what the result is, I, He Shao, owe you a favor. If you need it in the future, just talk."
