Chapter 526
After that, after the doctor's diagnosis and treatment, Zeng Hong finally woke up from the coma.

"Well, where am I?"

As Zeng Hong spoke, he wanted to struggle to get up from the bed. Seeing this, the person in charge of the care at the side hurried forward, helped Zeng Hong up, and immediately asked excitedly.

"Patriarch, you are awake, do you feel any discomfort, do you need me to call the doctor for you?"

Hearing this, Zeng Hong subconsciously shook his head, with a blank look on his face, and asked the person who came.

"Where is this place, why am I here?"

Seeing Zeng Hong, the No. 60 patriarch of the Zeng family, ask himself the specific reason, this person dared not hide anything, and immediately narrated everything he knew.

"Patriarch, the thing is like this, you previously..."

Through this person's narration, Zeng Hong finally recalled everything that happened before, and immediately saw that his face was gloomy, and he called this person to his side and gave instructions.

"You should immediately send someone to the Kong family in Qufu to tell them the news!"

"Yes, patriarch!"

Facing Zeng Hong's order, this person didn't dare to neglect in the slightest, and immediately turned and left.

Zeng Hong looked at the back of the person who came and left, looked away, and said to himself silently.

"Hmph, Hai Rui, just wait for me, I will definitely tear you to pieces to vent my hatred!"

……

On the other side, the county government hall of Jiaxiang County.

At this moment, Zhou Wande, magistrate of Jiaxiang County, looked at the menacing Hai Rui and his party, and couldn't help breaking out in a cold sweat.

Not long ago, after Hai Rui escorted away all the members of the Zeng clan captured from the Zongsheng Temple, in order to avoid having long nights and dreams, Hai Rui finally decided to conduct a surprise interrogation on these Zeng clan members at the local county government.

Seeing this situation, Guan Rui, a hundred households of Jinyiwei, took the initiative to ask Hai Rui to hand over the interrogation to Jinyiwei.

Hai Rui heard that, of course, he had nothing to do. After getting Hai Rui's permission, he saw that Guan Rui brought the Jinyiwei's men and horses, and after asking Jiaxiang County magistrate Zhou Wande clearly about the location of the cell, he took the All the Zeng clan members who were captured were taken into custody.

After a while, there was a shrill scream from inside the cell.

"My... my lord, tea... tea is here!"

Zhou Wande turned his gaze to Hai Rui, and spoke cautiously.

After the words were finished, a few subordinate officials came forward tremblingly, serving a cup of hot tea for Hai Rui, the commander Zhang Yuan and others.

Seeing this situation, Hai Rui nodded imperceptibly, and immediately spoke.

"Well, please trouble Master Zhou!"

Hearing Hai Rui's words, Zhou Wande, magistrate of Jiaxiang County, suddenly had a flattered expression on his face, and he said hastily.

"Where and where, Lord Yushi is serious!"

After saying this, Zhou Wande carefully observed the expression on Hai Rui's face, and after organizing the words in his mind, he dared to ask Hai Rui.

"My... my lord, my... I am very curious, why did you come to Jiaxiang County, which is not a shit?"

After Zhou Wande finished speaking, perhaps because he was afraid of angering Hai Rui, he hurriedly explained.

"My... my lord, don't misunderstand me, the official is just curious, there is absolutely no other meaning!"

Upon hearing this, Hai Rui did not respond immediately. Instead, he picked up the teacup on the table, took a sip, and then spoke leisurely.

"Master Zhou, are you sure you want to know about this?"

When Zhou Wande heard Hai Rui's words, his face was immediately covered with panic, he waved his hands quickly, and said in a panic.

"My... my lord, I don't want to know anything, you just said nothing, okay?"

Hai Rui had a panoramic view of the expression on Zhou Wande's face, and immediately put the teacup in his hand back to its original position, and said to himself.

"Actually, it's not a big deal, Mr. Zhou, you should know what day it is today, right?"

As soon as Hai Rui's words fell, Zhou Wande fell into deep thought. Even though he racked his brains, he still couldn't figure out what day it was today.

Not long after that, Zhou Wande looked at Hai Rui with shock as if he had suddenly figured something out.

"Lord Capital Censor, I suddenly remembered that today is the day when the Zeng clan worships their ancestors in the Zongsheng Temple, so it must be possible..."

Facing Zhou Wande's suspicious gaze, Hai Rui nodded and responded immediately.

"Well, that's right, his Zeng family is related to the White Lotus Sect, and this official came here to deal with this matter!"

"What... what, White Lotus Sect!"

After hearing Hai Rui's words, Zhou Wande's face was suddenly covered in endless panic, and he lost his voice subconsciously.

But soon, Zhou Wande realized his recklessness, and quickly lowered his head without saying a word.

Even though Zhou Wande was only a small county magistrate, he knew very well in his heart the seriousness of this matter, because anyone who colluded with the White Lotus Sect would eventually be unable to escape the fate of ransacking their families!
Even if your family is rich and there are people in the court, so what?Once you have a relationship with the White Lotus Sect, you have touched the imperial court's inverse scale!

In the eyes of the imperial court, you are a veritable rebel, and you are also the kind of rebel who may incite the people to rise up and make trouble at any time!

"It seems that the Zeng family is dying!"

After Zhou Wande said such a sentence, a flash of inspiration suddenly appeared in his mind, and he thought so.

"No, logically speaking, why would Lord Du Yushi tell my little magistrate about such an important matter?"

"Could it be possible, Master Du Yushi, is there anything I need to do?"

Immediately, Zhou Wande came back to his senses, with a flattering expression on his face, he turned his gaze to Hai Rui, and said, "Master Capital Censor, if there is anything you need to do, just say it, let me do it." I will definitely go through fire and water, and I will not hesitate!"

Hai Rui heard this, and after thinking about it for a moment, he nodded slightly and said.

"Speaking of which, I do have something you need to do here!"

Zhou Wande's face became even more excited when he heard Hai Rui's words. For him, this is an excellent opportunity to turn around!

After all, the person in front of me is the censor, the left deputy capital sent by the imperial court to investigate the case. After rounding it up, he can barely be regarded as half an imperial envoy!

Thinking of this, Zhou Wande suppressed the excitement in his heart and asked Hai Rui in a slightly trembling voice.

"My lord, please state clearly that I will do my best!"

Hai Rui had a panoramic view of the expression on Zhou Wande's face, and after pondering for a moment, he immediately gave instructions.

"In this way, you immediately send someone to spread the news, saying that the Zeng family is related to the White Lotus Sect. Anyone involved in it has been captured by this officer and is now being interrogated non-stop!"

After listening to Hai Rui's instructions, Zhou Wande got up from his seat abruptly, and responded without thinking.

"Yes, my lord, I will do it right away!"

After the words fell, Zhou Wande stepped out of the hall and called his subordinates. After whispering a few words in his ear, those subordinates left in a hurry.

Seeing this, Zhang Yuan, the commander of the capital at the side, was full of doubts on his face. He immediately lowered his voice and asked Hai Rui.

"Sir, you are..."

Upon hearing this, Hai Rui glanced at Zhang Yuan and explained with a confident look.

"Don't worry, this official wants this effect, give them a trick to knock the mountain!"

"Now the initiative is in our hands, the more panicked they are, the more flaws will be exposed!"
