After the whole family was swept away, I lay down flat

Chapter 378 Regret
House slaves who are listed on the roster are different from minions who are gathered at will.

When the Zhou family caught him, they caught him well and were able to directly drag his master, Sun Yongbai, into the water.

Even if the Sun family argued that Sun Yongbai had no knowledge and that it was Sun Cai, a treacherous slave who had betrayed his master, who made his own decisions, Sun Yongbai would not be able to escape the charge of lax control.

Sun Yongbai is the cousin of Concubine Sun and the nephew of Mr. Sun Ge. He is now an official in Jinyiwei and can mobilize the power of Jinyiwei for the Sun family. If he is really implicated in Sun Cai's crimes and loses his official position, even if he can make a comeback with his family's power later, at least he can prevent Jin Yiwei from continuing to be used by the Sun family. In the future, it will not be so easy for the Sun family to use Jinyiwei to deal with their opponents in the political arena. His family's political opponents would be afraid of the Jinyiwei, who were known as the emperor's minions, but they might not take seriously the Sun family's slaves and dead soldiers. They could arrest and kill them if they wanted. Who would be afraid?
Haijiao was quite happy about this. From the perspective of a reborn person, if Sun Yongbai could really be pulled down this time and leave Jinyiwei a few years in advance, many people in Jinyiwei who were unfortunate enough to be harmed by him would be able to escape! It is no longer possible for him to be a spy in this life and reunite with his old friends from his previous life, but he sincerely hopes that they can avoid some disasters and live a smoother and more stable life.

Haitang was a little confused: "How did my brother know? Then could Sun Cai take the initiative to reveal his identity? I thought he was loyal to the Sun family, and would not do anything after he kidnapped the Wu family's mother and daughter. After that, he publicly announced that he was a Sun family member." Just like she accused Sun Cai and his group of being spies for the Hu people in another court, he did not dare to refute that he was from the Sun family. Everyone knows that the Sun family has done a lot of bad things, but their family still has to use a fig leaf to cover up their affairs.

Hai Jiao smiled and said: "Of course he won't say anything. He also claimed that he deliberately came to arrest Mrs. Gui and her daughter because he had a grudge against Gui Jia. However, his accomplices were not as tight-lipped as him, and the Zhou family didn't waste much effort. , and pried their mouths open."

Regardless of the people Sun Cai brought with him today, they seemed to be his confidants and he took them with him when he fled. In fact, they were all people who slipped through the crackdown in Zhuangzi on the outskirts of the city. When something happened to his accomplices, they were not in a relatively safe area on the periphery. He just stayed far away and didn't intend to get involved in the dirty work.

The latter, represented by Sun Cai, did not want to go out of the city to kidnap people in the middle of the night. They only stayed in the city comfortably and stared at the two accomplices who were acting suspiciously. This kind of person is pampered and cannot afford hardships, but because he is close enough to the Sun family and knows how powerful the Sun family is, he does not dare to betray him easily.

It's just that most people are the former. They are not very valued in the Sun family. After being sent to the areas around Chang'an to lurk, because they have been out of the control of the master family for a long time and can act relatively freely outside, their loyalty to the Sun family has also deteriorated. will gradually weaken. When besieging the village to rob people, they stayed on the outside and paddled in the water. It was easy to escape after the incident was defeated, which is a proof. If the Sun family was in a good position and they were profitable, they would naturally not betray them; but now that the Sun family is gradually declining and they have fallen into the hands of the Zhou family, how can there be any talk of loyalty? Naturally, the most important thing is to save your own life first.

Sun Cai was betrayed by his accomplices. His name, identity, date and purpose of coming to the northwest, and even his fixed residence in Lintong County were all revealed. Sun Cai could no longer hide his identity, and he was also a little greedy for life and afraid of death. In order to protect himself, he no longer clenched his teeth. When the Zhou family asked him something, he hesitated to reveal a little.

It doesn't matter if he confesses little now. Anyway, he has fallen into the hands of the Zhenguo Government. After that, he only needs to be interrogated slowly. As he continues to explain, the more secrets of the Sun family he reveals, the less likely he is to turn back. . At that point, he was left with only one choice.

The interrogation of Sun Cai was not something Haijiao could do. Even Xie Wenzai only received a promise that the Zhenguo Government would notify him once important information was found. But Haijiao doesn't care. He believed that the Zhou family would not miss this great opportunity and would definitely use Sun Cai to give the Sun family some color.

However, Sun Cai was arrested in Haijia. In order to find out how he got in touch with the fish that slipped through the net, the soldiers of the Zhou family who came to the house at that time directly borrowed the living room of the Hai family to conduct a preliminary interrogation of Sun Cai and others, although the latter could not confess at the time. There are many, but it also tells some more important information.

For example, they still have a stronghold in the city, where the escaped fishes and Sun Cai met. There are still wounded people recovering from their injuries in the stronghold.

For example, one of their accomplices was assigned to monitor the gate guards near the East City Gate. They expected to leave through the East City Gate, and might have to fight with the soldiers guarding the gate. It was necessary to collect intelligence in advance. Another example is when Mrs. Gui took the initiative to tell Sun Cai and others about the gathering place of the Zhou and Tang girls, as well as the possible hiding place of Jin Jiashu. Sun Cai and others were shocked. They never expected that there would be such a thing. An unexpected surprise. They kidnapped Mrs. Gui and her daughter, originally just to find hostages to "escort" them out of the city smoothly. But since Mrs. Gui gave them such a big surprise, there was no reason for them to miss the good opportunity to make meritorious deeds...

It is said that Mrs. Gui strongly persuaded them to kidnap Jin Jiashu, and she also took the initiative to give advice to the Sun family and help them eliminate Concubine Xu Xian and the Eighth Prince. At that time, Sun Cai felt that this woman had a trick on her mind, but her suggestion sounded reasonable. Then he had to make sure that he could bring the living Jin Jiashu back to the capital. It was best to coax Jin Jiashu to be obedient and willing to cooperate with him in his deception. Concubine Xu Xian and the Eighth Prince mother and son. If he really helps the family head get rid of the Eighth Prince's roadblock, not only will he not have to take the blame for the failure of the Sun family's business plan in the northwest, he will simply make a great contribution and regain his position...

Because of these reasons, and the fact that Sun Cai didn't know the internal situation of the Hai family and didn't know where Jin Jiashu lived, he borrowed Wu Qiong's name and pretended to visit Xie Wenzai. If Xie Wenzai could be tricked into handing over Jin Jiashu, that would be great; otherwise, his accomplices would have climbed over the wall to observe the situation inside the Hai family house, found the target as soon as possible, and brought the person out directly.

Rumor has it that Jin Jiashu injured his foot and is unable to walk. He is also thin and should be able to control himself well. At that time, Sun Caifang had several people, all of them armed. It was expected that the Hai family, a seventh-grade official family, all old, weak, women and children, would not be able to stop them. As long as they get out of the door, they can get into the carriage and leave. Maybe they can also take away a few horses from the Hai family, which saves a bunch of people from crowding into a car and fleeing.

Sun Cai got rid of the pursuers on his own. No one knew that they had come to the Hai family, and they had planned carefully, and they were still planning to coax Jin Jiashu into his own use. Therefore, they could not fight or kill people in front of him. They were so frightened that they never imagined that things would not go as smoothly as they thought.

Not only did the Hai family have capable people and were not afraid of their long knives and daggers, Xie Wenzai was also very stubborn. He watched his mentor's granddaughter get three or four bloody cuts on her neck and refused to tell where Jin Jiashu was hiding... He obviously didn't care about the pain of thirty years of exile and was willing to accept his mentor's grandson as his teacher. Why is he so hard-hearted today? When the daughter of the Hai family arrives with the soldiers of the Zhou family, there will be no need to mention it later...

When Hai Jiao got the letter and hurried home, he happened to catch up with Sun Cai who revealed his feelings and regrets in the preliminary trial of Zhou's family.

If he had known that he would end up like this, he would have taken the Wu family mother and daughter out of the city.

If they don't go to the Zhou family's courtyard, they won't be decorated by the Zhou family's soldiers.

If they don't go to Haijia to rob Jin Jiashu, they won't be caught.

Obviously the guards at the city gate were not very strong in the morning, but they were still sure of being able to escape. Why did he just listen to Mrs. Gui's words...
