It was not too troublesome to detain Li Pengju.

Guo Yiyu's scruples about him before would not be scruples about the Li family, not about him.

Li Pengju, on the other hand, was arrogant even though he did not resist.

Thinking about it, in his heart, even if Guo Yiyu is bold today and takes him back to the yamen, he will obediently send him out later. After all, the Li family has a relationship with each other in the province or in the capital.

Guo Yiyu has the support of the political envoy, just to teach the Li family a lesson.

Even if he knew that Li Pengju's two brothers were also in the officialdom, he was no longer as timid as before. He is standing up for Tang Zhiyu, if the Li family dares to find a posterior account, it will not give Tang Zhiyu face. He wished that the Li family would be tougher at this time, make some trouble, and tie his relationship with Tang Zhiyu closer.

After more than a year in the office, Guo Yiyu has already understood that what is compared in officialdom is not knowledge and ability, but the backing behind him.

It was because he had no backer, although he spent tens of thousands of taels of silver to find a shortage of magistrates, but he was constrained by the local gentry when he went to the local area.

Tang Zhiyu's backer, he has climbed it, and he is naturally full of confidence.

What Cao Hao was curious about was the woman who pretended to be a female ghost.

After all, the woman is frail, and the one who can be as light as a swallow and enter the hospital over the wall is definitely not an ordinary person. And knowing that he is facing an official, he can sing and write well, which shows that he is fearless of the government.

In order to prevent the other party from escaping, he said to Tang Zhiyu, and divided a few people to keep an eye on the front and back doors of Li Pengju's house.

The Li Mansion in the west of the city is only Li Pengju's residence, and the old lady of the Li family lives in the north of the city.

Here, Li Pengju had just been taken to the Yamen, and the grandfather of the Li family had already gotten the news and brought a few nephews to the Yamen in a carriage.

When Guo Yiyu avoided it, Mrs. Li noticed that something was wrong. When he asked the reason and knew that his son had been sued for the restaurant, the old lady of the Li family felt bad.

knew the power of the Li family, and dared to hand over the paper to the yamen; makes Guo Yiyu change his attitude, and the other party will not be a weak person.

Although Mrs. Li donated her fame, she was only able to show off her majesty to the common people, and she had no right to interfere in the government affairs of the county government.

While he asked people to find the county to speak, he sent people to the guard to find his son-in-law quickly.

Where can I find someone from the county?

The county has already been passed to him by Tang Zhiyu, and there is already a testimony from the disciples that after he left the county government last night, he went to Li Pengju's restaurant.

Seeing the incident at the east window, he immediately took himself out, and he was afraid of being responsible, so he didn't dare to bite Li Pengju. only said that he met an old friend last night, drank a few cups, and inadvertently leaked the news of the arrival of the political envoy at the wine table.

As for the consequences of the leakage of the news, it has nothing to do with him.

Tang Zhiyu will not immediately attack a county, as long as he listens to this sentence, it is enough to prove that everyone's inference is correct, and Li Pengju has not been wronged.

In addition to the one charge of "blackmail," Li Pengju added another one, "colluding with assassins and peeping into the government office."

Five hundred governors have arrived in Jinghai City.

Cao Hao ordered Liang Chuanfu to bring fifty governors to surround the Li Mansion with the officials and arrest the "female ghost".

He is also betting on luck, Li Pengju often appears in several places, which are not suitable for women to show up, and the surname in Li's house may be larger.

Among the more than a dozen maids and concubines, the handsome woman stands out from the crowd and is very conspicuous.

When Liang Chuanfu asked her about her origin, she said vaguely, and through the testimony of several stewards of the house, they only knew that she was a guest of Li Pengju and had lived in Li's house for a while.

This woman, who is not a docile person, saw that something was wrong and wanted to escape, but was stopped by Liang Chuanfu.

Even if she is skillful, ordinary three or five people can't get close; But Liang Chuanfu is a general who has been on the battlefield after all, and he can easily take down this woman.

During the sudden interrogation overnight, Li Pengju was usually stubborn, but he could not bear the charge of "colluding with assassins and spying on government offices."

If it were ordinary, this crime would not be so painful; Now that the political envoy is staying at the county government and confessing to this crime, who knows what is waiting for him.

The official word has two mouths, if it is crooked, he will be deducted with a "collusion with assassins and assassination of local officials", then his surname will be difficult to protect.

Choosing the lesser of two evils and instructing people to go to the county government to stage a "female ghost" farce will not be a matter of life and death.

Compared with this, the restaurant's extortion of one hundred and fifty taels of silver is nothing.

Li Pengju thought it clearly in his heart, but he was reluctant to open his mouth easily, and he had a trace of hope in his heart, hoping that his father and brother-in-law would think of a way to get him out.

However, when he came up, he was stripped of his silk clothes and beaten with 20 powerful killing sticks, so that Li Pengju did not dare to take any chances.

Li Pengju couldn't say the identity of that woman, she was a disciple of a Taoist friend of his, and she had several family martial arts.

Tang Zhiyu dealt with Li Pengju's matter, and Cao Hao was not idle, so Liang Chuanfu directly took 500 governors to the Tianjin Health Center.

The thousand households of the institute are Qin Gang, the son-in-law of the Li family.

He received the news and went back to the city to deal with his brother-in-law's affairs, but he was stopped outside the yamen. When he heard the news of the arrival, he hurried back to the guard.

Jian Bing and Jian Bing, Qin Gang did not reach it.

He thought that Tianjin Wei was remote, so he was reluctant to give up his empty salary.

Regarding the "Jian Bing" article, he nominally reduced dozens of old and weak soldiers, but in fact, through the names of these people, he received hundreds of acres of official land from the Jinghai County Ya. These old and weak soldiers became his tenants.

The training went through the motions, and everything in the guard was as usual.

Liang Chuanfu is an old man in the army, and after looking around in the guard, it is clear at a glance.

Cao Hao had already learned from Guo Yiyu about Qin Gang's pretending to be the official Tian, and asked Liang Chuanfu to take the superintendent to the guard, just to verify it again.

He was very disappointed with this result, but he was helpless.

He didn't stay in Jinghai any longer, and said to Tang Zhiyu, leaving him fifty governors, and then took the rest of the people back to Qingyuan.

Before returning to Qingyuan, he gave Yongzheng a sealed fold and mentioned what Jinghai and his party had seen.

The land annexation of local townships and townships is serious, the gentry are in power grabbing, and the officials are acting in disobedience, and the training of soldiers is very difficult.

Cao Hao knew that there were definitely not one or two people like Qin Gang who wanted to deal with it, and when someone came from Beijing in June, he might have to dismiss some military attachés at that time. He went to the fold in advance, and also reported one or two in front of the emperor, saving more military attachés when he got it, and he was suspected of accumulating power.

After returning to the Qing Yuan, Cao Hao saw from the newspaper that the Russians had invaded the border, and the Heilongjiang general brought musketeers to resist the foreign humiliation, and finally the two were drawn, and the imperial court sent people to redraw the border with it.

"Why is it not peaceful...... Cao Hao thought hard, and he couldn't think of any wars in the Yongzheng Dynasty.

After all, in his previous life, he did not study Qing history, and only knew a rough idea of the historical events of the Kangqian period.

Song Hou and Jiang Jian were looking forward to Cao Hao's return, because Yongzheng had already issued an order to order the governor of the world to express his own opinions on how to deal with Nian Qianyao.

This is not a hint in the replies of the past, but a clear decree.

Even if Cao Hao has no intention of falling into the well at this time, he has to think about how to play.

If Cao Hao pretends to be stupid again at this time, he may be angry with the emperor.

Nian Qianyao is powerful, and the in-laws of the Nian family are all over the officialdom, especially the famous "annual election" in the first two years, which makes the northwest officialdom a hall of words for Nian Qianyao.

With the resignation of Nian Qianyao, I don't know how many people have fallen off the top.

The matter has come to this point, and Cao Hao is always bad at offending Yongzheng in order not to impeach Nian Qianyao.

"Nian Qianyao is arrogant and rude, and the world knows it, so according to this, just write a few sentences." Cao Hao thought for a while and said.

As for exposing Nian Qianyao's detailed "crimes" and putting on all kinds of big hats for him, I will leave it to others.

Not to mention the enemies that Nian Qianyao offended in the officialdom, let's just say that those court and local officials who came up with Nian Qianyao's thigh, in order to avoid being implicated, even if Nian Qianyao was very wrong, they would also give it 100 percent, and they didn't need others to add weight at all, Nian Qianyao was already guilty of a hundred deaths.

Cao Hao rushed back to Qingyuan before the Dragon Boat Festival, and the happiest were Li and Chu Yu.

In addition to the family reunion, there was also good news in the capital, and the sixteenth elder brother added a son-in-law at the end of April.

"Bodhisattva bless, Aunt Sixteen is finally bitter." Chu Yu and Sixteen Fujin are of the same age, and they have a good relationship among relatives, and they are very happy about it.

Cao Hao knew that the sixteenth elder brother was looking forward to the landing of this sister-in-law, and he was also happy in his heart.

However, Chu Yu remembered another thing, but he felt confused: "The first two letters from Eniang mentioned that Uncle Sixteen will accept Fujin at the end of the month." The sixteenth aunt added a sister-in-law to the palace and was originally a hero, why did the sixteenth uncle take the side of Fujin at this time? ”

"Oh?" Cao Hao heard it, and it was also an accident.

Although the sixteenth elder brother was romantic when he was young, he has grown older in recent years, and he has faded in terms of women. In the past two years, Wangfu Taifujin has repeatedly wanted him to accept Fujin, but he has not let go, and in the end, he just added a Fujin.

"Xu is Taifu Jin's trouble?" mentioned Taifujin, Cao Hao also disappointed.

Chu Yu shook his head and said, "It shouldn't be." If the sixteenth uncle was willing to submit to Taifujin's arrangement, he would have carried the side Fujin into the mansion a long time ago. E-Niang said that this matter was strange, and some people outside said that it was the side Fujin that the sixteenth uncle asked to marry, and some said that it was given by the emperor. Anyway, at this time, Nafang Fujin is very shameless for Aunt Sixteen. Uncle Sixteen is true, if nothing else, let's just say that Aunt Sixteen died four children, and Uncle Sixteen should also defend one or two. ”

She is also a wife and a mother, and when she mentioned this matter, her tone was a little complaining.

Cao Hao listened, but his heart moved, thinking of these transactions in Qingyuan City.

At this time, the sixteenth elder brother was given a side blessing, which seemed to be Yongzheng's style.

If it was before the birth of the little elder brother, the sixteen blessings would occur, and if the heirs in her belly were affected, I was afraid that the sixteenth elder brother would be resentful and sad; After the little brother landed, it was nothing to disgust the sixteen blessings.

It's just that because they are far away, he and Chu Yu don't know yet. The sixteenth elder brother's "Yanfu" is not only this one, after the sixteenth elder brother's sister-in-law "baptized three ceremonies", the four palace maids given by the palace have been sent to King Zhuang's mansion......
