Lin Yuan smiled: "Do you remember the confrontation between the north and the south that I told you on the train when we returned to Beijing from Shanghai? ”

Shen Wanqing nodded, and Lin Yuan continued: "So I not only want to save this Yang Changjun, but also let him die for me, and more importantly: I also want him to continue to be the governor of Shaanxi and Gansu!" After that, I will secretly insert our people into the power organs of Shaanxi and Gansu, and then the entire northwest will be ours! ”

Shen Wanqing listened to Lin Yuan's words, slowly frowned, and said: "It's not difficult for you to save this Yang Changjun, anyway, Emperor Guangxu is about to become your puppet, he will listen to whatever you say, but how can you let him die for you?" Is it okay to save his life? ”

Lin Yuan shook his head and said: "It's not that simple, this kind of feudal official is different from the heroes of the rivers and lakes, the grace of saving lives may not work, what should I do, let's act when the opportunity comes!" While he was talking, he suddenly heard footsteps in the distance, and more than a dozen soldiers had rushed to the embroidery building, and in the blink of an eye, they had rushed into the embroidery building, and after a burst of scolding, they rushed a group of crying women out of it.

Among this group of women, there are not only old mothers who have just rushed into the embroidery building, but also more than a dozen girls, and five girls, all of whom are dressed plainly, with ordinary appearances, like maids, only one girl is wearing silk and satin, with a delicate face, Lin Yuan pointed to the girl and whispered to Shen Wanqing: "That girl looks like a young lady." ”

While speaking, a group of people had already walked across the small bridge, walking in the direction of the compound in front of the main entrance, the two hurriedly followed, the place they passed was a mess everywhere, clothes and books were thrown everywhere, and when they came to the compound, they saw that the courtyard was already full of people, there were hundreds of men, women and children, all with tears on their faces, one of them was wearing an official uniform, and a golden chicken was on it, Lin Yuan knew at a glance that this person was Yang Changjun, the governor of Shaanxi and Gansu.

However, Yang Changjun's official hat has been taken off, and there are no Buddha beads on his chest, his face is like ashes, the officials who have been dismissed in this era are all like this, in front of the crowd, Ning Maniac has his hands behind his back, his toes are high, and the large and small boxes on the side of the courtyard are piled up, and the gold, silver and jewelry on the side of the box are scattered all over the place, and no one pays attention to them.

At this time, the soldiers escorted the women over, and when the young lady saw Yang Changjun, she called "Daddy" and pounced on Yang Changjun, Yang Changjun hugged her daughter, and couldn't help but burst into tears, and said, "Didn't I ask the old mother to escape from the back door with you?" Why don't you run away? ”

The young lady cried: "Daddy is in trouble, how can my daughter leave alone!" ”

Shen Wanqing whispered in Lin Yuan's ear: "Looking at their father-daughter affection, if you save his daughter, he will definitely be very grateful to you." ”

Lin Yuan's face turned red, and at this moment, he saw Ning Maniac waving at Yang Changjun's father and daughter, and several soldiers rushed up to separate the two, and then he heard Ning Maniac say in an official voice: "Have you all caught everyone?" ”

A soldier stepped forward and said in a loud voice: "If you return to the camp commander, everyone has already been arrested!" After saying that, he raised a notebook with both hands above his head, and said loudly: "This is the roster, please take a look at it!" ”

Madman Ning took the roster, held it in his hand without looking at it, raised his head and asked Yang Changjun, "How many wives and concubines do you have?" ”

Yang Changjun hunched his waist and replied: "If you return to the camp commander, the criminal minister has six wives and concubines. ”

Madman Ning asked again, "Then how many children do you have?" Are they all married? ”

Yang Changjun replied: "Five sons and two daughters, the five sons have all married wives and have not yet taken concubines, the eldest daughter is married to Taiyuan, and the younger daughter is in the boudoir." ”

Ning Maniac walked up to the female relatives on the side, and asked while looking at the women one by one, "This is your wife and concubine and daughter-in-law?" ”

Yang Changjun nodded, and Ning Madman asked again: "Then how many envoys are there in your family?" ”

Yang Changjun said in embarrassment: "You should ask the housekeeper about this, the criminal minister really doesn't know ......"

Ning madman nodded at the housekeeper, and the housekeeper hurriedly stepped forward and knelt down, bowed his head and said: "Lord Qiqi Yingtong, there are a total of 227 servants in the family, and ...... of them are men."

Ning Maniac coughed and said, "Just say women!" ”

The butler replied, "There are one hundred and three women. ”

Madman Ning nodded, and said to the soldier holding a pen and paper beside him: "Remember, Yang Changjun has four wives and concubines, a daughter, who has been married to Taiyuan, five sons, only three are married, and there are seventy-three women in the family!" Report this to the Holy One! ”

Ning Madman said this loudly, Shen Wanqing and Lin Yuan also heard it on the side, Shen Wanqing patted Lin Yuan and asked, "Why did he deliberately remember wrong?" ”

Lin Yuan frowned and said, "They can take away the extra women!" Shen Wanqing's eyes widened when she heard this, and she said, "They are robbing the people's girls in broad daylight!" It's too bold, isn't it? ”

Yang Changjun and the others also understood what Ning Maniac's intentions were, and suddenly turned blue with anger, Lin Yuan smiled at Shen Wanqing and said, "It seems that it's time for me to make a move." After Lin Yuan finished speaking, he paced out from behind the tree, far away, Ning Madman didn't see that he was Lin Yuan, and thought it was someone from the Yang family, so he said angrily: "Didn't you say that you caught it?" Why did you miss one! Hurry up and catch me! ”

Ning Maniac looked at the soldiers over, but was surprised to find that the soldiers knelt on the ground in front of that person, kowtowing like a chicken pecking rice, and just about to open his mouth to scold, he saw the man pacing over, and after a closer look, he found that the person who came turned out to be Lin Yuan! Madman Ning thought in surprise, "Why is Lin Yuan here?" ”

Madman Ning was thinking about it, Lin Yuan had already walked in front of him, and said with a smile: "Ning Yingtong, long time no see!" ”

Madman Ning remembered what happened on the train, and involuntarily gave Lin Yuan a salute and asked, "Why is Lord Lin Yuan here?" ”

Lin Yuan smiled: "I'm here to preach the holy decree!" ”

Ning Madman said, "Holy Decree? I already have a decree, where did you get it? ”

Lin Yuan took out the communicator in his hand and said with a smile: "Don't you know about the radio communication equipment?" I have already sold a lot to foreigners, and it seems that you have not bought a single one of the new army, but it doesn't matter, let me tell you, I used the radio to communicate with Beijing, and the saint issued the latest decree, Yang Changjun suspended the investigation and allowed him to make meritorious contributions. ”

Ning Madman asked suspiciously, "Is what you said true?" ”

Lin Yuan shrugged his shoulders and said with a smile: "Do I dare to fake the holy decree?" ”

Madman Ning looked at Lin Yuan for a while, waved at the soldiers, and said, "Let's go!" The soldiers withdrew in the blink of an eye, and everyone in the courtyard was stunned, Lin Yuan waved at them and said, "Okay, okay, let's all disperse." Everyone dispersed like walking corpses, and Yang Changjun stepped forward and asked in a trembling voice, "Lin Shuai?" Are you Lin Shuai? ”

Lin Yuan agreed with a smile, and Yang Changjun hurriedly said, "Thank you Lin Shuai for saving me, didn't the Holy Lord want to investigate me?" Why did you suddenly change your mind? ”

Lin Yuan said with a smile: "The Holy Lord has not changed his mind, it is me who is falsely preaching the Holy Decree." ”

Yang Changjun was so frightened that his knees weakened when he heard the words "false holy decree", if it weren't for his daughter on the side, he would have fallen to the ground, Yang Changjun said in surprise: "This is a big crime of the Nine Clans, Lord Lin, how dare you ......"
