Although the Jinyiwei had a bad reputation among the people, this made them suffer the contempt of the people everywhere in the following days.

Not to mention investigating the relief grain, even the toddlers would avoid them when they saw them on the street, and they were unable to find out anything about Huang Yuanqiu and other grain merchants.

If we use a forceful approach, we are afraid that these major families will directly rebel.

If I leave directly, I'm afraid they will destroy the evidence.

Several teams of messengers were sent to Zhenhaiwei to mobilize troops, but they were all intercepted and killed along the way.

It can be said that since the people started rioting, they have been having a hard time in Zhangzhou City and can only wait for Zheng Zhilong's men to come for support.

But who would have thought that Liu Xiang did send a messenger and he sailed out to sea safely, but the person he brought back was Xu Xinsu!

That night, Xu Xinsu led five hundred soldiers from Tongshan and hundreds of pirates, and with the support of the aristocratic families, rushed into the city. Together with the servants of the aristocratic families, they launched a night attack on the Jinyiwei garrison and the prefectural government office!

Even though they had been on guard, they were still caught off guard. Xiong Wencan and his men were outnumbered and eventually fell into the enemy's hands.

Xiong Wencan had accidentally heard the reason why they were not killed on the spot from the conversation between Xu Xinsu and Liu Xiang.

This was because Liu Xiang wanted to use Zheng Zhilong as a hostage to force Zheng Zhihu and others to submit.

As for Xiong Wencan, Li Chaoqin and Shi Bangyao, they were the ones whose property Xu Xinsu had been eyeing.

In his words, as Wei Zhongxian's godson, his family property must be quite a lot. If this vote is successful, the money he gets will be enough for him to move to Japan and live happily for half his life...

Chapter 129 Kill one person, reward gold

When Xiong Wencan finished speaking, Zhu Youxiao kicked over the table, the anger in his heart could no longer be suppressed.

"Somebody come!"

"Take Xu Xinsu outside and chop off his legs first!"

"Let the doctor watch over him. I want to make him wish for death!"

"Knock on every door and ask all the people in the city to come out and watch the execution!"

There is no need for interrogation at this point.

"Yes!"

Zhen Beiwang immediately turned around and left.

Soon, Xu Xinsu was taken to the street.

Yutong took nine other Xuanwu Lang and went door to door to invite the people to come out and watch the ceremony.

At the same time, Sun Kangwang had already brought his men to Wen's house.

When the servants of the Wen family saw him in the Feiyu suit, they immediately rushed into the house in panic and blocked the door from the inside.

"Master, it's bad, the Royal Guards are here to visit us!"

Inside the flower hall, several people were drinking happily. When they heard this, they were almost stunned at the same time.

The wine glass in Wen Yuanqiu's hand slipped out of his hand and fell to the ground.

"What did you say?!"

He stood up suddenly, looked at the servant with a changed expression and asked.

"My Lord, the Imperial Guards are here to visit us!"

"At least hundreds of people!"

"impossible!"

Wen Yuanqiu couldn't believe his ears.

Fan Shiwen rolled his eyes, pulled him back to the chair, and said calmly.

"Don't panic!"

"We will step aside for a moment. You go and see who is coming."

"Remember, there is no evidence, no one can do anything to you!"

After he finished speaking, he winked at Wu Xin, then stood up, left the banquet, and walked out of the flower hall.

Wu Xin reacted instantly, stood up and left with him.

Kong Wenxiang, Liu Jizu, and the head of the Zhou family looked at each other and saw fear in each other's eyes.

Then, Kong Wenxiang stood up and bowed to Huang Yuanqiu.

"Brother Huang, I'm afraid it's not convenient for us to stay, so I'll take my leave now!"

Huang Yuanqiu was stunned. He watched them stand up and immediately shouted.

"Everyone, leaving Huang alone at this time, is this what we agreed to do together?"

Kong Wenxiang glared at him and said, “Only if Kong is fine can I keep you safe!”

"You don't even understand this. Is there shit in your brain?"

Then he waved his sleeves and left in anger.

"boom!"

Just then, the sound of the door being knocked open came from the front yard, followed by a loud shout.

"Search for me!"

"Don't let anyone who can breathe go!"

"Yes!"

All the Jinyiwei responded in unison and rushed in.

The servants of the Huang family were also panicked at this time. The housekeeper led them to the outside of the flower hall to ask Huang Yuanqiu for instructions.

"Master, do you want to kill us?"

He knew very well what his family had done. If he was investigated, the entire clan would be wiped out...

Even the ant nest would have to be poured with scalding lead water!

Before Huang Yuanqiu could respond, he heard an angry shout from outside.

"What a courage!"

It was Sun Kangwang and his Jinyiwei who came in.

The corpses in the lobby of the prefectural government office not only made Zhu Youxiao angry, but also made him full of murderous intent.

Before he finished speaking, he raised his knife and slashed at the Huang family servants.

"kill!"

Seeing this, the Jinyiwei flagmen beside him would not hold back at all and started to attack one after another.

These Jinyiwei were chosen to accompany the emperor because they were the best choices in terms of both martial arts and appearance.

As soon as they started fighting, the winner was immediately apparent.

These servants, who could defeat Li Chaoqin and Zheng Zhilong by relying on their numbers, were almost powerless to fight back in front of them.

Coupled with the greater good, their morale was completely lost in just a moment.

"Stop them!"

"Kill one person and get a hundred gold reward!"

In the flower hall, Huang Yuanqiu panicked when he saw the Jinyiwei's ferocious appearance. After shouting this sentence, he fled to the backyard with the housekeeper.

But after running not far, he saw Fan Shiwen, Kong Wenxiang and others who had left earlier.

"There are guards at the back door, too!"

As soon as they met, Fan Shiwen pointed to the backyard and said in panic.

Kong Wenxiang grabbed Huang Yuanqiu by the collar and asked, "Is there any other way out?"

Huang Yuanqiu shook his head subconsciously.

Is there any other way out?

At this moment, the housekeeper pointed to a house and said, "Master, the woodshed! There is a secret passage in the woodshed!"

Huang Yuanqiu suddenly woke up: "Yes, the secret passage!"

"Quick, go call the Madam and the Master. Don't take anything from the house. Escape is the most important thing!"

The butler moved quickly. Not long after he, Fan Shiwen, Kong Wenxiang and others entered the secret passage, they heard the sound of a woman crying behind them.

After Sun Kangwang and his men dealt with the Huang family servants who were blocking their way, there was no trace of Huang Yuanqiu and the others in the courtyard!

"Commander-in-Chief, Lord Shi said that the Zhou family members escaped through a secret passage. Could the Huang family also have a secret passage?"

Sun Kangwang's mouth corners curled up slightly.

"You're playing this trick on me?"

"They are still a little tender!"

He leaped up, stepped on the windowsill for leverage, grabbed the eaves with his hands, and jumped onto the roof, looking around outside Huang's house.

At this time, just outside the Huang house, close to the courtyard wall, there was an inverted water tank at intervals.

And on the water tank, there was a Jinyiwei lying, listening to the noise coming from below.

Soon, someone looked up and shouted.

"Admiral, over here!"

Sun Kangwang immediately turned his head and looked in his direction, his gaze extending from the direction of Huang's house and the small flag to the distance.

"Come with a team, follow me and chase!"

"The rest of you, search this house thoroughly inside and out!"

After saying that, he jumped down and led a group of people to chase towards the east of Huang's house.

When it comes to tunnels, they must be dug in the most labor-saving way possible, so when digging, they usually go in a straight line.

When you encounter rocks or rivers, there are only two choices: either go around them or stop!

There are many water systems in the south. A hundred feet east of Huang’s house is an unknown river within the city!

On weekdays, people wash clothes, vegetables and even flush toilets in this river.

After Sun Kangwang led his men to the river, he jumped onto a courtyard wall and looked in the direction of Huang's house. After confirming the direction, he pointed to a courtyard road not far away.

"Surround that area! Search!"

"Yes!"

A group of Jinyiwei flags immediately responded.

The quadrangle was just a two-entry courtyard, covering an area of ​​no more than two or three hundred square meters, with only seven or eight rooms in total.

The doors of the rooms were tightly closed, and there was a thick layer of fallen leaves in the yard, giving the impression that no one lived there.

The house inside looked brand new, obviously having just been renovated.

The doors of each room were pushed open, and a rough search ensued.

Under the bed, behind the wardrobe, in the kitchen, in the woodshed, and even the toilet were not spared.

Huang’s house is big, so it’s not easy to find the secret passage.

But such a small courtyard is very easy to find.

There were about a hundred people, and before they had put in much effort, they heard someone shout.

"found it!"

Chapter 130: Have the merits of your ancestors now become your capital for breaking the law?

In the outhouse of the courtyard, right behind the squat toilet, according to the situation of a normal household, this should be the location of the cesspool.

But it’s not the case here!

Perhaps because they took into consideration that others would never reach out to touch such a filthy place, the entrance to the secret passage was actually located right where the cesspool should have been!
