Chapter 19 Hunting

After receiving a positive reply from the capital, Feng Wuhen finally calmed down. As long as his father had not planned to replace the officials in Fujian, he could first remove the thorn in the Luo family's side, so as not to keep stumbling on himself behind his back. In fact, if he had the original intention, he did not intend to do this, but Luo Yunqian's sudden serious illness disrupted all plans. The ambitious Luo Yunwen was too arrogant, and coupled with the things promised by the Yue family, he finally had a real murderous intent.

"Hanqing, are you ready for everything you should do?" Feng Wuhen was still a little nervous about the upcoming storm. Although he had planned it many times, if he failed, he would not only be too involved, but he would also be deeply involved and could not extricate himself.

"Don't worry, your highness, these days, the officials have sent people to block the important roads in the name of suppressing the Japanese. I believe that the news in the capital has not been sent back so soon." Guo Hanjin looked confident. The Luo family almost ruined his future. At this time, what else can hesitate about?

"Very good, then I'll send troops to surround the Luo family immediately and not let anyone go. Remember, send someone to monitor all the Luo family's shops, but don't move any place!" Feng Wuhen glanced at Song Junxian and said in a deep voice.

"I respect your highness's order!" Guo Hanjin and Lu Simang looked at each other and smiled tacitly.

Luo Yunwen, who was waiting for the letter from Beijing uneasy, suddenly heard a noise outside and stood up immediately. Unexpectedly, in just a while, a few panicked servants rushed into the main house of the head, which was like headless flies, which had always been only a deacon, and made Luo Yunwen, who was following the division between the upper and lower, furious. He slapped the leader in the face, and Luo Yunwen angrily shouted: "Do you still have rules? Who told you to come in? Well, those who entered the main house of the head would be kicked out of the house after being thirty. Have you forgotten?"

The servant knelt down aggrievedly and said in a crying voice: "You are not good, a large number of officers and soldiers came outside and surrounded this place. The men in each room were frightened."

"What!" Luo Yunwen only felt a spasm in his chest, his face turned pale, and he couldn't help but fall on the chair. It came too fast, and he grabbed his chest desperately, thinking unwillingly, to cheer up, he kept reminding himself, and his other hand trembled and took out a small bottle from his arms, tilted his head and fell down. The medicine worth hundreds of gold was indeed effective. In the blink of an eye, he felt that he had recovered his strength.

"Call, call everyone to gather outside the house!" Luo Yunwen shouted in a hoarse voice, "I want to see what crimes those people want to falsely abolish me!"

The person in charge of the roundup was Guo Hanjin's confidant, guerrilla Ji Chang. Under his command, hundreds of soldiers surrounded the Luo family, fearing that someone would escape. The Niesi yamen had already received the confirmation of information in advance. All the backbones of the Luo family were concentrated in the mansion today, so they did not worry about any important figures missing the net. It was already night. From a distance, the continuous torches were spectacular. The soldiers who had not been dispatched also held the weapons in their hands one by one, for fear of causing dissatisfaction to their superiors. For this operation, each of them received five taels of salary. For this, they had to be very energetic tonight.

While Ji Chang was considering whether to break in or shout, the Luo family's door opened with a creaking sound. Luo Shijie, the highest-ranking Luo family, came out. He had already stepped down as a deacon, and when his family was facing life and death, he had to come out to face these officers and soldiers first, although he knew that he had very little hope of passing this level safely.

"Master Ji led his troops to surround my Luo family late at night, and I don't know what's going on?" Although he was old, Luo Shijie's voice was still very clear in this dark night.

Ji Chang twisted his neck unnaturally, "The Luo family colluded with Japanese pirates and privately received stolen goods. I was ordered by the imperial envoy to arrest all the officials in charge of the Luo family." As soon as his voice came out, a scream of exclamation suddenly appeared among the soldiers, but was immediately suppressed by some officers.

"Did Lord Ji make a mistake? It is true that the Luo family has business dealings with Japan, but collusion with Japanese pirates is purely false. If I want to imprison my old and young family just for such a crime, then the imperial envoy would be too reckless!" Luo Shijie's words were so tough that he obviously put life and death aside.

"Bold!" Ji Chang was furious and his voice couldn't help but rise. "If there were no evidence of certain people, how could I lead the troops to surround me late at night? If you know the truth, you will tie yourself up and apologize. Perhaps Your Highness can leave you a way out. If you dare to resist stubbornly, don't blame me for being rude!" He shouted lightly, and the soldiers behind him immediately unsheathed their weapons, looking tense.

Luo Shijie closed his eyes helplessly. The personal evidence and physical evidence were simply a joke. Is there little evidence of corruption and abuse of power in Fujian officials in his hands? However, people clearly had to attack him, but he didn't even have any way.

"Since the imperial envoy said that our Luo family colluded with Japanese pirates, we should surrender!" A tired voice came from behind Luo Shijie. Headed by the acting head Luo Yunwen, a group of powerful Luo family deacons came out one by one, and many people were still frightened.

"Mr. Luo, the official is just following the order and offended him." Seeing that the Luo family had no intention of resisting, Ji Chang was relieved and his face relaxed a lot. "Come on, take them down!" He ordered to his left and right.

"Slow down!" Luo Yunwen suddenly shouted, "According to the criminal law, it is not a serious crime of treason. You must not implicate the young people in the family before asking for crimes. Master Ji came this time and was going to take my Luo family's women and children?"

Ji Chang couldn't help frowning. Feng Wuhen's order was quite clear. After taking away the main members of the Luo family, he put all the others under house arrest and then took them away in batches. However, how could Luo Yunwen know this? "Mr. Luo, I was only ordered to arrest a few people, and I don't know anything else. You should ask Your Highness in person." He winked at his left and right again.

Luo Yunwen allowed several soldiers to tie him up. He knew in his heart that resisting at this time would undoubtedly add another charge to the Luo family. Fortunately, he still left a step later. Those letters from Guo Hanjin and Lu Simang had already asked someone to take them away. If they could not escape this time, the two dog officials would never have a good end.

The successful imprisonment of a group of great figures in the Luo family was just the beginning of the matter, and the next was a dazzling purge. The crime of colluding with Japanese pirates was not the least or the most serious. However, this evidence could naturally change in various ways, either light or serious. As long as they were willing, it would be simple to determine the crime of a Luo family's treason. As for the people, it was even said that a captured Japanese pirate could prove that the Luo family and many Japanese pirates had money exchanges. Such a wealthy family in the Fujian secretly collected the stolen goods. This understanding made the honest people angry.

Although he was in prison, the Luo family was not abused. Not only were he locked up alone, but he also had no food or other things compared to ordinary prisoners. However, the fate of the family still made them very worried. From the jailers, Luo Yunwen had already learned about the rumors outside and the anger of the people. Humph, if you want to add a crime, there is no reason. When the Luo family is still in great power, do those people dare to say this? His actions were still too slow, which is his biggest regret.

Bang, the prison door suddenly opened, and a figure appeared quietly in front of everyone. It was Feng Wuhen’s guard Xu Chunshu. At this time, what did he appear here for? Even if he was interrogated, it would not comply with the rules! Xu Chunshu seemed to have not seen the doubts of others, but said coldly: "According to the order of Your Highness, Luo Shijie will come to see you."

Everyone was uproaring, and even Luo Yunwen looked at the uncle with uneasiness. Although he firmly believed in his loyalty to the family, no one could be sure whether he would say anything at such a critical moment. "Your Highness, please accept the people of sin." Luo Shijie replied without any hesitation, and stood up with some difficulty.

Through a dark corridor, Luo Shijie followed Xu Chunshu, feeling far less calm than he imagined. He was a descendant of the Luo family. Although he had the advantage of his seniority, he had always had very little power. It was not until Luo Yunqian took power that he handed over many things to him. Therefore, his loyalty to this nephew has never changed. However, the incident not long ago caused the Luo family to lose an excellent chief, and he could only retire in disgrace. Seeing Luo Yunqian's eagerness for quick success and instant benefits brought the Luo family to its current level, it would be impossible to say that it was not a grudge.

"Report to Your Highness, Luo Shijie brings it." Xu Chunshu bowed to report.

"The sinner Luo Shijie bowed to His Highness." Luo Shijie knelt down calmly and bowed. He just glanced at him and found that Feng Wuhen was standing on the side and on the side and the few people who brought into the main hall when he went to the Luo family last time.

Xu Chunshu carefully brought the door and guarded outside in person. The master did not even discuss this matter with Song, Guo and Lu. It was obvious that there was something else, so he had to be careful. Fortunately, Feng Wuhen ordered a hundred imperial guards here, otherwise it would be difficult to arrange such a meeting.

Feng Wuhen felt a little reluctant when he saw the elderly Luo Shijie kneeling under the bottom. He had no choice but to accept the seriousness of his heart. "Luo Shijie, do you know why this king saw you alone this time?"

"I don't know the guilty people, but I only know the guilty people. The Luo family's collusion with Japanese pirates is purely a false statement..."

Before Luo Shijie finished his words, he was interrupted by Feng Wuhen. "This time I won't tell you about the Japanese pirates. I just want to ask you, how is Luo Yunqian sick?"

Luo Shijie's face changed drastically. Feng Wuhen's question was beyond his expectations. Is there anything strange about the illness of the head of the family? "When you say to your Highness, the head of the family fell ill after learning that the goods transported to Luo Mansion in various places were robbed and the worker was seriously injured. For this reason, although we have hired the best doctor in Fujian, we are still helpless."

"Do you know that your head of the family was plotted against and became a useless person?" Feng Wuhen asked almost gritted his teeth, "Luo Yunqian was seriously ill, and then your Luo family was ready to provoke trouble in Fujian. What kind of Mingtang is there? Luo Shijie, as an elder in the Luo family, you won't shirk you, don't you know?"

Luo Shijie opened his eyes wide in horror. It was impossible, absolutely impossible. He repeatedly warned himself to calm down. However, his body still lost control involuntarily and collapsed to the ground. Oh my God, is all this a conspiracy by others?
