Cheng Yao snorted coldly and ignored it.

Wang Ji's screams came one after another, accompanied by his loud rebuttal.

No matter how he shouted, the soldiers who used torture would only work harder.

In the small ancestral hall, except for Wang Ji's scream, there seemed to be no other sound, and there was a strange quietness.

Not long after, a soldier came to report and said, "I caught more than 60 people, died more than a dozen of them, and my brothers were injured."

Cheng Yao's expression suddenly turned cold and he said, "Take me away all the ones that can be taken away. Each of the injured brothers is ten taels!"

"Xie Dutou." The soldier who reported the news withdrew happily.

Wang Ji's scream continued. Not long after, he finally couldn't stand it and said loudly: "I'll do it, I'll do it, stop..."

He raised his neck, his face was covered in cold sweat, his whole body was shaking violently, and his eyes looked at his hands that seemed to be pinched off in front of him, screaming in fear.

Cheng Yao looked unconscious, and the soldiers who used torture did not stop.

"I've taken it! I've taken it!"

Wang Ji turned his head hard and looked at Cheng Yao, roaring louder and shrill.

"Noisy. Block his mouth." Cheng Yao said lightly.

Immediately, a soldier, who found the rag from somewhere, stuffed it tightly into Wang Ji's mouth.

Wang Ji struggled desperately, whimpering and tears flowed out, but no one paid attention to him.

The three elders of the tribes have already shrunk together and dare not breathe.

There was only sticks, no other punishment. Even so, Wang Ji's shouting was getting lower and lower, as if he was about to fall into a coma.

"Useless waste!"

Cheng Yao glanced at the half-burned incense and said, "Stop it, bring a basin of water."

The soldiers stopped and brought another basin of water to pour it on Wang Jie's head.

Wang Ji was shocked and woke up.

Cheng Yao sneered: "Are you willing to say it now?"

Wang Ji was dragged by the soldiers and turned his head towards Wang Ji.

Wang Ji's head was wet and blood was on the corner of his mouth. He looked at Cheng Yao and disappeared from his previous calmness. Instead, he was afraid and hesitated, saying, "It was Mr. Liu who sent me to inform me that I asked me to do this."

"Grandpa Liu?" Cheng Yao leaned forward, and he said with confusion. He didn't remember that there was a husband in the court whose surname was "Liu".

Wang Ji expressed his confusion, but he said, "I am the former magistrate of Linchuan County, and I have the kindness of knowing me."

Cheng Yao immediately snorted and said, "Just a small magistrate is worthy of being called 'Sushi'? Such a big thing is spread all over Hongzhou Prefecture and Fuzhou Prefecture. He shouldn't be able to do it alone. Who else?"

"Then I don't know. Mr. Liu sent a confidant to notify me, and I don't know anything else." Wang Ji's face was ashamed and lay on the ground motionless.

Seeing this, Cheng Yao knew that what this guy said should be true. He thought about it carefully for a moment and said, "Where is this Mr. Liu now?"

Wang Ji hesitated for a moment and said, "It should be in Linchuan County, or outside."

Cheng Yao said: "Where did those three inner demons go?"

Wang Ji said: "I don't care about the specifics, I'll let him hide on the lake."

"I don't know if you dare to lie to me!"

Cheng Yao stood up and said, "Take all these people away, write to the governor, and report the matter here."

"Yes." A soldier responded.

Cheng Yao stood up and strode away from the ancestral hall.

He came with more than 300 people, and when he left, nearly 400 people were there.

At the same time, the entire Jiangnan West Road was once again in a panic, and officers and soldiers were everywhere.

This time the mirror sealing mirror is different from the previous one. The previous time was to lock the main cunning, and this time it was comprehensive. Not only were the curfews implemented in big cities, but there were officers and soldiers in various villages and yamen runners appeared.

All violent institutions, including the Nanhuangcheng Department, the Inspection Department, the Nancisi, etc., are operating at an extremely fast pace, and have conducted extensive investigations and searches for "vaulting behavior".

The inspection department was everywhere in Hongzhou Prefecture and kept arresting people. The prison in Hongzhou Prefecture was full in less than half a day.

Late at night, Hongzhou Prefecture Prison.

Zhu Xie stood in front of a prison door and looked at Chu Zheng inside.

A group of people involved in the Chu family were sentenced to death by Nandali Temple. Only Chu Zheng was exempted from the death penalty for "exposing the matter" and survived. He was then taken back from Nanchang County to Hongzhou Prefecture prison to serve his sentence.

Although Chu Zheng was glad that he was not dead, he knew that there would be no good ending. He watched Zhu Xie appear, half lying in the corner of the wall, and said with a dead face: "You have already plundered my money. Could it be that you still want my life?"

Zhu Xie looked at him and said, "The Governor's Office issued an order to exile all the crimes of the prison to Zhanzhou."

"What did you say?!"

Chu Zheng stood up suddenly, ran to the prison gate, staring at Zhu Xie with his eyes tightly. He naturally knew where Zhanzhou was, it was the most remote and smoky place in the Song Dynasty. If a prisoner like him went, could he still come back alive?

"I gave you so much money. You promised me that I would let me go in at most half a year!" Chu Zheng's face turned pale and gritted his teeth.

He believed that Zhu Xie wanted to vow, refused to let him go, or even wanted to kill him to silence him!

Zhu Jie's face remained unmoved, and he said with a smile: "With your ability, you should know that what I said is not a lie. What I want to know is whether you can guess who did it."

What happened so big that everyone was talking about it, including these prisoners, Chu Zheng naturally knew about it.

Chu Zheng's expression changed again and again, and he said, "If I tell you, can you let me out?"

Zhu Xie shook his head and said, "But I can keep you, and it will be effective if I release you in half a year."

The Chu family was once the local emperor of Hongzhou Prefecture and had a huge influence on the entire Jiangnan West Road. There are only a handful of people who have the ability and courage to plan the plan outside, and people inside know it.

Chu Zheng stared at Zhu Xie, not believing in him, but he had no other way.

With a burst of inner entanglement, Chu Zheng glanced around and leaned closer and whispered: "There are all in Fuzhou Prefecture with this mind and courage. There are only a few people. You can find someone to inquire about it."

Zhu Jie's expression moved slightly and said, "Do you have a specific name?"

Chu Zheng shook his head decisively and said, "I don't know. However, you can't find any evidence. They must have made careful arrangements for such things. Even if they catch some minions, there will definitely be no evidence. I advise you not to get involved. Today they are just destroying the bridge road, and they should kill and set fire tomorrow. Do you want to bring dozens of people around you every day?"

Zhu Xie didn't answer him, and turned around and left.

"Don't forget, you promised me!" Chu Zheng shouted at his back in the prison door.

Zhu Xie was out of prison, and without thinking too much, he took his men and headed straight to Fuzhou Prefecture.

Just now, Fuzhou Prefecture and Linchuan County.

Ge Linjia stood in front of the warehouse, looking at the extinguished fire and the clean ruins, his face was extremely embarrassed.

Behind him was a group of officials of all sizes, including Zuo Tai, the magistrate of Linchuan County.

Zuo Tai said with a look of worry and uneasiness: "Main Lord, this happened when the lower official just came back. Someone must be dissatisfied with me and maliciously revenge!"

Ge Linjia's teeth were almost broken, and his face was gloomy.

He didn't know that Zuo Tai was involved in this matter, but he had no evidence because Zuo Tai just returned from Hongzhou Prefecture today and the incident happened last night.
