In the government office, Li Changan was sitting behind the case, dealing with the things in hand. After all, the Dingyuan army couldn't just rest like this, and the daily military training still couldn't be left behind.

So they had to formulate a plan to allow the Dingyuan Army to continue to train normally. After all, raising troops for a thousand days and using them for a short period of time, there was no guarantee when they would put on armor and go into battle again.

Glancing at Pei Yuan on the opposite side, Li Changan couldn't help laughing.

Pei Yuan has been living in the yamen for four days, and everyone in the yamen knows about it, but no one knows why Pei Yuan lives here, and the general's mansion is not far away.

Putting down his pen, Li Chang'an walked up to Pei Yuan and said, "How long are you going to be awkward? I just made a deal with Daiyu, saying that you will go back in three days at most."

"That's your business, I don't want to go back yet."

"But regarding the dowry, you can't explain it yourself, and you don't blame Xueyan for misunderstanding you. As a big man, aren't you a little too stingy?" Li Changan picked up the book on the table and patted it. Pei Yuan was about to continue talking when he saw someone coming in from outside.

At this hour, they are all resting, why are there people here?

Stop talking and look at the person who came in.

"what's up?"

"The marshal said, what happened before, you can go get someone."

"Understood, immediately call a team of 100 people and follow me."

Li Changan frowned, glanced at Pei Yuan who was troubled by love, and shook his head helplessly—forget it, he should go alone for this matter, seeing Pei Yuan like this, he has no intention of doing business, and...

It's best for him to go alone.

Get down from the table, pat Pei Yuan on the shoulder, Li Changan turned and walked out: "If you don't go back at night, I don't think you will become a relative, just live alone for the rest of your life."

"You boy, you are arrogant because you have a wife!" Pei Yuan raised his head and cursed, watching Li Changan's leaving back, he began to think seriously.

But instead of thinking about Xueyan, he thought about what Li Changan was going to do.

Rongguo Mansion...

As soon as the lady surnamed Jia left, the Jia family should have expected that there would be today. They had been given a chance to live on in the past few years, but unfortunately, in the eyes of the emperor, they were worthless.

So for more than a month, someone has been targeting Jia's mansion, and even Jia Zheng feels pressured, presumably the Rongguo mansion has also felt it, which is why it is like this.

However, this time it was not only the Rongguo Mansion that was involved, the Ningguo Mansion was not a good place either. What the emperor wanted to copy was the entire Jia family.

In Ning Rong Second Mansion, there is no one place that is innocent.

"Why are there so many officers and soldiers here?"

"Could it be to catch the annoying man at large?"

"Who knows, maybe one of them has made a mistake again. If they offend, they shouldn't offend others. Now they are going to the mansion to arrest them!"

……

Seeing a group of officers and soldiers passing by, the common people on the street began to discuss.

Some sharp-eyed people noticed that this place was going to the richest family on this street, otherwise it would not be worth dispatching so many soldiers and horses.

A boy at the corner saw this group of people, quickly dropped the things in his hand, and walked into the alley behind.

But it's over, this time it's really over!

Pulling the reins, the horse under him raised its front hooves, and a neighing broke the surrounding discussions. The man on the tall horse stared at the red-painted gate with a serious expression on his face.

"General, the servant outside the door is not here, we—"

"Go straight in. Anyone who tries to escape will be punished with a higher crime. All property in the mansion will be confiscated, and all the men in the mansion will be taken away. After hearing this, the yamen will issue orders. Women and children will be detained in the mansion and not allowed to leave the mansion!"

Li Changan interrupted the soldiers, gave an order, and upon hearing the response, got off his horse, strided forward, and couldn't help but look up at the plaque of the Rongguo Mansion hanging high.

It's really a turn of events. Who would have thought that the Rongguo Mansion was still prosperous three years ago, but now it will end up being ransacked.

"Don't be rough with the old, the weak, women and children. Those who violate the order will be punished with thirty army sticks."

"Yes! This subordinate takes orders!"

The door was knocked open, and the servants inside were so frightened that their knees went limp, and they stood there at a loss, and only shouted for grievances when they were dragged away.

He kept yelling that he had nothing to do with him and was innocent.

Li Changan didn't change his face, he stood in front of the door with a silver gun in his hand, looked at the soldiers pouring in, suddenly raised his head to look at the plaque, his eyes were piercing, he picked up the plaque hanging high, and smashed it heavily on the ground .

Rongguo Mansion?

He hasn't settled with Jia Lian for the money collected from the Lin family, but now someone else is in a hurry to settle with them, this Jia's mansion——

How many immoral things have you done?

The civilians watching outside the door were stopped by the soldiers, so they had to look in, and they couldn't help but sigh when they saw people who usually sat in soft sedan chairs being escorted out.

They are all rich and noble people who wear gold and silver, eat delicious food and drink spicy food. Unexpectedly, there will be a day when they will be imprisoned, which is really a trick of God.

Li Changan walked to the front hall and was about to turn around when he suddenly saw two familiar figures. He was stunned for a moment, and stood there grandly, looking at Mrs. Jia who was in danger.

As expected of the old lady who has been in charge of Jia's mansion for many years, at this time, just sitting here is full of aura.

"General Li, I didn't expect to see you again so soon."

"The old lady is polite, but today I am here for routine business, I am afraid I don't have time to greet the old lady, if there is anything, there will be a chance in the future." Li Changan did not change his expression, and stopped the conversation with a few words.

Not moving the women and children does not mean that there is nothing wrong with this group of people, but the Jia family has a large population, and it may not be an easy task to take them all into custody, so we can only do it step by step.

Upon hearing this, Mrs. Jia tightly grasped the pear stick in her hand.

I knew that the brother of the Li family was cruel, but I didn't expect it to be so cruel.

"You heartless person, when you promised Lin girl to you, you didn't think that your family was not high, but now you are ungrateful! Who did we women offend? We have been locked up in this place for the rest of our lives, and in the end we have to be treated like a bastard by you." The boy bullied and took away all the men in my house, what kind of crime is it that you are so humiliated, you—”

Mrs. Wang next to her was already crying, wiping her tears non-stop, wishing to scold Li Changan bloody.

The female family members of the mansion have all arrived in the front hall, surrounded by people guarding, not to mention escaping and reporting, even if they take a step outside, they will be driven back.

Li Changan listened to Mrs. Wang's crying, expressionless, just looked at Li Wan and Xue Baochai.

Li Wan, who was hugging Jia Lan, lowered his head and couldn't see anything, only Xue Baochai's eyes were red, but he still pretended to be calm and stayed by Mrs. Wang's side to comfort her.

Jia Baoyu and Jia Zheng should not be in the house, but they probably went to prison earlier than here.

"Madam is right, the word ungrateful is well used, but unfortunately, it shouldn't be used on me."

"you--!"

Li Changan walked out with his silver gun in his hand, and when he reached the door, he turned his head and said, "I don't know that over the years, my father-in-law, who has not masked his face, has left a lot of family property and property, as well as those land deeds and shops, which are very useful to everyone in the house." Are you satisfied?"

"What nonsense are you talking about!"

"You can find out these things as soon as you investigate them. Do you really think that Jia's mansion can cover the sky with one hand, or do you think that no one can help Daiyu to investigate? I think everyone knows what kind of government office this job is."

Thinking of Daiyu's expression on Fenglingdu that day, lonely and helpless, as if she lost her original support in an instant, if not...

If he had been a jerk, Daiyu might have jumped off at Fenglingdu.

"Ingratitude? Who can compare to Jia's mansion, who can look down on even his own granddaughter, and send off a casual marriage, so as not to delay his family's road to wealth, and indeed, ungrateful."

She still has the face to say the words of ungratefulness, Daiyu has not lived in the Rongguo Mansion for ten years, and she has become a burden, she is alone, even if she brings Wang Momo and Xueyan, she eats and wears according to Jia's mansion If you want to spend all the family property left by Lin Ruhai, it is enough to support her for a lifetime.

The hearts of the people in Jia's mansion are really rotten from the root.

Leaving these words behind, Li Changan strode out.

"If you lose one person, you go back to the Yamen to receive the punishment."

"Yes! General!"
