Don't look at them talking and laughing happily, but they are looking at each other and speaking carefully.

Don't even look at who the emperor is, the lord of a group of people fighting hundreds of officials, a cunning hunter, how can you let them take advantage of it?

He took care of all those present by himself, saving the efforts of the three queens.

They just sat and listened, not even bothering to take a sip of tea.

Today's food and drink, Qiao Mai has seen, there is no problem, you can eat and drink with peace of mind, but they still didn't move their chopsticks much.

They were full of wine and food, and they didn't ask one, two, three. In the end, they had no choice but to ask Qiao Mai to buy tea and ice.

"I got that tea by chance, and I didn't have much in hand. I only brought some with me when I came out. I can't do this business anymore. As for the ice, we used special means to transport it all the way, just for our own use on the road. , I’m really sorry everyone.”

"Be polite, be polite, there is no benevolence and righteousness in business."

"Thank you for your hospitality, and we take our leave,"

The emperor and the others got into their carriage and left. The people upstairs were sitting there, looking at me and I looking at you.

"These four people are definitely not ordinary people. The old man has such a strong aura, and he turns against customers as soon as he comes. He pushes me to wait. His wife is from a small family at first glance. There is another couple. They seem ordinary, but they are Not afraid of the old man's aura at all, it seems that their status is not low, I heard that they have twenty guards to escort them, and the girl beside them is not ordinary."

"After thinking about it, we'd better be careful, just give up this piece of fat."

"Yeah, that's what I meant by waiting,"

From this day on, no one came to disturb Qiao Mai and the others, but the spies in front of the door welcoming the guests did not withdraw.

The emperor and others still went out for a walk every day, watching the scenery, eating, listening to music, and there was no abnormal movement at all, which made those people in Luzhou city feel relieved.

Two days had passed since the peaceful days, and another batch of uninvited guests came to the inn at night.

The main battlefield, the roof, the main battle party, the man in black and Heizi.

Result: The men in black died collectively, and their bodies were thrown in the Rong's residence. Qiao Mai showed the second young lady of the Rong family what she said.

On the second day, she was caught with her head upside down, and her big horoscope was hung on the outside of the city.

At daybreak, when the common people enter and leave the city, they only need to raise their heads slightly to see clearly.

This time it was not so easy to go up and down. As soon as the Rong family found out that she was not there, they sent people to look for her throughout the city, and they only saw it at the gate of the city at dawn.

It took a lot of effort to get her down from the city gate.

Now the common people are all feasting their eyes, and they can see clearly which parts of the body have any birthmarks.

Now the Rong family was humiliated, the owner of the Rong family asked someone to wake her up, and asked sharply.

"Are you going to provoke those people again?"

"Yes, my daughter sent someone there yesterday, and he will not give up until he gets it."

"If he can humiliate you like this, he has the ability to kill you. If you want to die, no one will stop you. It's not that he brought the Rong family along."

"Father, why are you so stingy, don't forget, the empress is from our family"

"Fart, that's from the main family. The empress is not the emperor. The previous empress also resigned. She still treats her natal family strictly, let alone our branch?"

"Anyway, the mountains are high and the emperor is far away, so they can't manage here."

"You'd better be honest."

Patriarch Rong was so angry that he took back all her rights, and sent someone to guard her. Without his order, Missy was not allowed to mess around.

A day later, Jin Longwei dispatched 10,000 elite soldiers from the border. According to the emperor's instructions, he first searched the 5,000 officers and soldiers outside Luzhou City, and then took over.

When the emperor received the evidence of their crimes, he immediately suspended the guards outside the city, and arranged for a takeover from the generals at the border.

Then the soldiers outside the city did not move, and Jin Longwei sneaked into Luzhou City, investigating family by family.

Even the most profitable shop in the city did not escape. For three consecutive days, the city was quiet, and three days later, at night, it began to rain heavily.

The emperor looked at the thick account book in the inn, rubbing his brows with a headache.

"Golden Dragon Guard"

"Subordinates"

"Tomorrow night, none of these five families will be let go. First put them in prison, and then ransack their homes. No place will be spared. Those who have property, go to the store or the village to search. Be sure to align with the account. "

"yes!"

Jin Longwei left the inn with the emperor's order in the night rain, and the rain was still falling.

It took a whole day and night to stop. On this night, the five great families in Luzhou City were surrounded by officers and soldiers overnight. Once they resisted, they were immediately killed by Jinlong Weige on the spot.

Everyone was imprisoned in the Yamen prison, and the Yamen had already been picked up by the guards outside the city.

All night, 15,000 officers and soldiers searched, and at dawn, they began to count their belongings. It was noon before the old emperor received the news.

The five aristocratic families confiscated 16 million taels of monastic files, countless jewelry, antique calligraphy and paintings, and even more precious medicinal materials.

Instead of being angry, the old emperor grinned.

"That's great. This is saving money to give me a gift. After accepting this batch, why worry about the treasury not being rich? If there are a few more batches of people like this, I'll send them away. I won't have to worry about money anymore in the future."

"Your Majesty, is the principal criminal going to have a public trial?"

"I'll leave it to you and the guards outside the city to interrogate. I don't want to see this group of resident insects. Have those smokehouses been raided?"

"Not one left,"

"After the trial, according to the law of the Ming Dynasty, those who should be beheaded and those who should be distributed will be distributed. Remember that all the poppies outside the city will be uprooted and a notice will be posted. If anyone grows this thing again, they will die!"

"Yes, Your Majesty"

After Jin Longwei left, the emperor found Qiao Mai, "Mother-in-law, everything is settled."

"Let's go, let's go see the fun?"

"That's what I mean too"

A group of four people came to the magistrate's yamen, and the common people guarded from three floors inside and outside, all wanting to know their final fate.

In order to let them see clearly, Qiao Mai pointed his finger, and the people automatically drew a line, and the emperor walked in with the three of them.

Inside the public hall, the patriarchs of the five great families in Luzhou knelt under the hall, and on top of the public case sat the commander of Jin Longwei and the guards outside the city.

The head of the Rong family, as well as the prefect of Wu, were not convinced. They were stubborn, especially the head of the Rong family.

"You are so bold, you even dare to touch the queen's maiden's family"

"Hmph, is it the king's land in the whole world? This law was revised by the emperor. The emperor said that the emperor violated the law and committed the same crime as the common people. You are not the queen, and you are only the queen's relative. Can you compare with the emperor?"

"Hmph, I can't wait"

"Witness and physical evidence are here, you can't accept it"

"The minister wants to file a petition, your authority arrests us"

The leader of Jin Longwei flashed out his token, "Open your eyes and see what this is?"

After seeing the token, Patriarch Rong and Prefect Wu all collapsed to the ground. Jin Longwei, how could they not know that Jin Longwei is the emperor's golden guard, who specializes in protecting the emperor and obeying the emperor's orders, that is to say, they have What happened now was all thanks to the emperor?

Wu Zhifu suddenly widened his eyes and looked at Jin Longwei above, "Is the emperor in Luzhou City right now?"

"Hmph, you're smart,"

Prefect Wu bowed his head in resignation, and he just said, that person looked familiar that day, he really was the emperor.

The emperor knew about the fact that they opened opium dens and harmed the common people, alas!

At the same time, Patriarch Rong also thought of this question, he looked at Prefect Wu, "Why didn't you say it earlier?"

"I just thought of that too"

Patriarch Rong turned around suddenly and looked at the people outside the yamen. He saw the four emperors at a glance.

The emperor just looked at him calmly, and Patriarch Rong looked at the queen again, she also stared at him expressionlessly.

He didn't say a word when it came to his lips.

What can he say? The emperor wanted to punish him, so he couldn't run away. Two days ago, he was calling him brother and brother, but now he has become a prisoner.
