. Until the evening, Hong Ya still didn't come back. Wang Xian began to get anxious again. The old man was still calm, but he divided some dry food from the package and then took a nap to rest. It seemed that he didn't care about Hong Ya outside.

Wang Xian sat in the pavilion but couldn't sit still, then got up and walked around until the night was deep and the crescent moon was approaching the sky, he sat down in a daze.

The sound of "dongdongdongdongdongdong" suddenly came and then a tiny sharp sound was heard, but it became calm in a short while.

Wang Xian suddenly stood up and walked towards the secret door, about to open the door, but saw that the door had been opened, and a person immediately jumped out of it, which surprised Wang Xianwei and said in surprise: "Is it Hong Ya?"

"Why are you here?" The figure seemed to be startled for a while before saying, "You haven't slept yet?"

"You are finally back." Wang Xian breathed a sigh of relief, indeed Hong Ya didn't expect her to come back, he hurriedly said, "You haven't had any changes outside, right?"

"Where is any change?" Hong Ya said indifferently: "I went outside and took a look, but I happened to encounter something that allowed me to successfully get rid of my life."

Wang Xian was stunned and said in confusion: "What kind of living thing?"

"When the granary was burned last night, there were five people who had not returned. I went to investigate today. Two of them had been killed by the officers and soldiers on the spot and captured three of them alive." Hong Ya walked into the pavilion and sat down and said, "And the three of them were all imprisoned for interrogation overnight, but they were also quite smart and they didn't say anything. So the government still doesn't know the people behind them."

Wang Xian also walked to the pavilion and said hesitantly: "Did you say you killed those three people?"

"It's not my killing." Hong Ya said lightly: "But they are indeed dead."

Wang Xian scratched his head and then said, "Tell me quickly what happened today, how can you escape the eyes of the officers and soldiers?"

Hong Ya glanced at him and said slowly: "Actually, there is nothing I have done after I went out, but I finally got rid of the danger. But I really encountered an extremely coincidental thing."

Wang Xian didn't say anything, and he was really curious about what Hong Ya was doing today and what was going on outside, so he listened quietly to Hong Ya's speech.

It turned out that Hong Ya was always worried about things outside, so she walked out through the secret passage while Wang Xian was sleeping. She was very cautious in showing people in men's clothing and wearing a low hat and walking outside, but nothing was recognized.

She didn't meet anyone outside, but the officers and soldiers really began to search the city on a large scale. From time to time, they saw a large group of soldiers walking towards various places, searching door to door, which was about to turn Yangzhou into a world.

Hong Ya walked very quickly and kept hiding among the crowd, so she arrived at the Yangzhou government without any danger. But she found that there had been a notice from the yamen that the fire had started to be posted on the backyard of a wealthy family in Yangzhou last night. She told the people not to panic. Then she said that the wealthy family had lost something. So the whole city was searching for thieves.

These nonsense made Hong Ya smile, but she immediately found that she had two avatars on the other side, but they were exactly her and Wang Xian. What she said above was that the thief was going to arrest the entire Yangzhou city last night.

Hong Ya immediately became a little careful and was about to leave, but she saw a few drums at the yamen. She was slightly stunned and saw many women walking out of the side wearing red and green makeup.

The group of people walked directly to the yamen gate, Hong Ya was slightly curious and followed him, but saw that it was the time when the yamen gate was trying the case and the women were all coming to watch.

Sitting in the court was an official in his forties looking down at him without any worries until the "magnificent" sound disappeared, he raised his eyes and said in a deep voice: "Take all the offenders."

The yamen runners immediately shouted and then brought many women from the side door, which were quite noisy and riots. The people in the hall frowned slightly and heard the yamen runners below shouting loudly: "Silent! Come and kneel down!"

Hong Ya was slightly stunned and then wanted to laugh. It turned out that these women were the prostitutes who had been quarreling before. Unexpectedly, they were not released after being arrested by Liu Zhongwu and were taken to court for interrogation.

In fact, what she didn't know was that the official sitting in the hall was also full of grievances, Liu Zhongwu, the general guarding the city, wanted to directly beat the brothel women a few times and drive them away. However, the old Confucian scholar from the court, Lord Li insisted on letting them interrogate the court and teach the way of etiquette to change the savage and weather Liu Zhongwu was amused and crying, but he did not dare to refuse Lord Li, so he handed the matter over to the Yangzhou Tongzong, and the Yangzhou Tongzong could not be pushed, so he had to come to the court with a tough bullet.

They wanted to pass the court casually and punish it once, but they didn't expect that Lord Li insisted on listening to the verdict in the side hall, which made the Yangzhou magistrate dare not take it lightly, so they could only try it according to the rules of the court.

After the women below were quiet, the middle-aged man coughed lightly and said, "All the names of you are here to sign up."

The brothel women immediately chirped and kept talking, which made the middle-aged man frown and said quickly: "What kind of discipline is it to say one by one to fight for strength and make the right decision!"

The yamen runners also understood that they immediately pounded the sticks in their hands and said "magnificent" loudly.

This is indeed very effective. Although the brothel women are fierce, they dare not act rashly and answer them honestly.
