Within two days, the wind outside suddenly changed.

Several people who participated in the Dragon Boat Festival Poetry Meeting and wrote poems were found to have treasonous intentions, and those poems were also anti-poems.Anyone who circulates anthologies of Dragon Boat Festival poems is regarded as an accomplice.There have been reports of people being arrested all over the place.For a time, the folks, especially the literati, were buzzing.

Soon, the team formed to hunt down the participants of the poetry meeting arrived in Wu County, and that night, the gate of Nishan Academy was smashed "bang bang".

It was Ah Cheng who was watching the night. As soon as he opened the door, he saw a group of officers and soldiers standing in front of the door holding torches.

"Get out of the way!" The leader had a stern look on his face, he kicked over, slammed into the half-open door, and brought Ah Cheng to the ground.He walked straight in with the people behind him.

Enduring the pain, Ah Cheng got up, bowed his waist and followed the man, and said, "My lord, my lord, what kind of errand is this young man taking the liberty to ask for advice? The young one can also repay the master."

"Master?" The man smiled contemptuously, and said, "It's Zhou Shizhang, right? Go tell him to get out, he's the one you're looking for!"

"This, this, what's the matter?" Ah Cheng asked again.

A person stood behind that person, and said: "Our Lord Qi is handling affairs, what right do you have to intervene? Get out of here!"

Ah Cheng bowed again and again, and quickly ran to Mr. Zhou's residence.

This group of people stood in front of the screen wall behind the gate, and the leader pointed to the sides, and three or four people went to the side rooms respectively, shouting: "The official is doing business, everyone inside comes out!" The doors were pounding loudly.

When Zhou Shizhang came out in disheveled clothes, the people in the rooms on both sides had already been kicked out, and some people had already entered the room to search.

Zhou Shizhang held back his anger, walked up to the leader and said, "Master Qi, it's getting late at night, I don't know what errands he is here for? Hearing the report from the servant, he was looking for me, why did he search the residences of these servants again?" gone?"

Lord Qi glanced at him lightly, showing a very surprised look, and said: "Hey, isn't this Lord Zhou? Oh, no, look at my memory, I am no longer an adult."

He looked Zhou Shizhang up and down for a while, and said again: "Zhou Shizhang, Zhou Shizhang, when the Holy Majesty took your job, it was you who did something wrong. How could you hold grudges and plan to rebel?"

"What rebellion?" Zhou Shizhang said angrily, "This old man's loyalty can be learned from heaven and earth, Lord Qi, don't spit blood!"

Master Qi turned around to see those people searching the house, and said slowly: "I work in vain, and I always pay attention to evidence. You know this Dragon Boat Festival poetry meeting? These people are disobedient, and wrote many anti-poems to disturb the hearts of the people. This time, I am following the orders of the Holy Majesty to hunt down these anti-party members."

Qi Tianbai stretched out his hand, and each of them handed over a scroll.He unfolded the scroll, sighed, read several names, and said, "Look, these people are all your students and friends. Can you say that you have nothing to do with it?"

Zhou Shizhang wanted to say something else, but Qi Tianbai waved his hand and said, "Two people entered your Nishan Academy in an hour, but they haven't left yet. If you don't want to be involved, you'd better hand them over now. I might be able to say a few good words for you in front of the Holy One. If I find you, it would be a crime of covering up anti-Party if you say so."

Zhou Shizhang calmed down instead, he sneered, and said: "I think back then, I offended your Qi family, and I had no official position. These people didn't even give me food, for fear that your Qi family would find out and hurt them. Are you still expecting me to take care of you now? Master Qi, the old man said bluntly, there were indeed two people who came to look for me, but I sent them away early, and you can find them even if you dig three feet. Let these unrighteous people step on it dirty!" As he said, he flicked his sleeves, put his hands behind his back, and stood aside.

"You said you drove him away?" Qi Tianbai snorted coldly, "Since Mr. Zhou has a clear conscience, he probably won't hinder us from performing official duties."

Ah Cheng couldn't help but said: "Those two people were driven away, I saw it with my own eyes."

Zhou Shizhang quickly told him to shut up.

Qi Tianbai glanced at the two of them, stopped talking, and waited with his hands behind his back.They had been staring at those people for a long time, and as soon as they received the news that they had arrived at Nishan Academy, he rushed over immediately.In addition to the group of people with him, dozens of people surrounded the road leading into and out of the mountain.They called the gate, and sent more than ten people to surround Nishan Academy, and not a single bird could fly out.He didn't believe a word that old ghost Zhou Shizhang said.This time, Zhou Shizhang will definitely not be able to escape!

After a while, people who searched the side rooms on both sides of the entrance reported that no anti-party was found.Qi Tian raised his hand, leaving two people guarding here, while the others continued to search inside.

Zhou Shizhang followed him, his expression didn't change a bit, he didn't seem worried.

After entering the second gate, the east and west sides are Yuxiu Yuan and Zhengyi Yuan respectively.

Qi Tianbai called four people to search the two courtyards, then continued to go in and pushed open the gate of Mingdao Hall.

There is no one in Zhengyiyuan, but Yuxiuyuan is full of gentlemen.With this commotion, the academy became noisy, and even the place where the students lived also had some movement.

Qi Tianbai smiled slightly, and another five people each went to Juren Garden and Youyi Garden.

Zhou Shizhang sighed and asked Ah Cheng to comfort the students.Qi Tianbai raised his hand to stop him, and said: "Don't, my people will deal with it on their own. Mr. Zhou must not make any moves, so as not to cause people to misunderstand."

At this time, the students have all fallen asleep.At this time, he was awakened by the vicious knock on the door, and when he saw that it was an officer and soldier, everyone was terrified.Regardless of their disheveled clothes, they ran out one after another.

When they saw Zhou Shizhang and the official beside him, many students turned pale.Zhou Shizhang raised his arms and made a slight downward movement towards them, not letting them talk more.

Qi Tianbai looked at this and then that, with a smile on his face, but his eyes were extremely cold.He pretended to be unintentional, and said: "Mr. Zhou is full of peaches and plums, which is really admirable. I think he will never do things like cover up anti-party and circulate anti-poetry."

His subordinates also responded: "Master Qi, the Dragon Boat Festival poetry anthology is very popular, so don't be careless."

Qi Tianbai nodded, and said: "You are right. Although I feel pity for these students, such a big matter should be enforced impartially."

Hearing them mention the "Anthology of Dragon Boat Festival Poems", there was some slight commotion among the students.Qi Tianbai was proud of himself, but he never thought that these students were all admiring Mr. Zhou's foresight.

These days, Mr. Zhou, together with Zhu and Ma, have been secretly looking for the Dragon Boat Festival poetry anthology in the academy.Originally, the students were not willing to confiscate this book, but Mr. Zhou only needs to hint at what happened recently, and no one dares to put the lives of himself and his family in danger.Therefore, if Qi Tianbai wants to find a few "anti-poems" and catch a few "anti-Party" here, it is delusional.

As more students came out, Ah Cheng's face became more and more nervous.He couldn't help but take a few more glances at Juren Garden, and during these few glances, Qi Tianbai discovered it.

Qi Tianbai said in his heart, no matter how much he pretended, he still showed his feet, and walked towards Juren Garden.

Ah Cheng opened his mouth, wanting to say something, but was stopped by Zhou Shizhang again.Qi Tianbai noticed this scene, and became more and more convinced that those two people were hiding in Juren Garden.

Not in a hurry, he walked into the garden gate, and all the houses he saw had their doors wide open, and the inside was turned into a mess.Seeing this, Zhou Shizhang couldn't help snorting angrily.Ah Cheng looked at Zhou Shizhang, and then unconsciously turned his eyes to a small road on the right in front of him.

Qi Tianbai had an idea in mind, he walked there step by step, and soon saw a small courtyard.The courtyard door was closed tightly, and there seemed to be no one inside.

He turned his head to signal to the person behind him, and that person stepped forward and knocked heavily on the courtyard door.Ah Cheng's eyebrows twitched, his face panicked.

Qi Tianbai laughed secretly in his heart, frowned and said: "If no one opens the door, then break it open for me!"

At this moment, the courtyard door opened, and a book boy came out of it.The book boy didn't panic when he saw them, instead he looked contemptuous and said: "Who is knocking on the door? Disturbing my young master's rest, can you afford it!"

Yo, it's still horizontal.Qi Tianbai raised his eyebrows, and said coldly: "We are working on behalf of the Holy Majesty, hunting down the anti-party. Will your son resist the order?"

The bookboy glanced at him and said: "You wait, I'll go back to you, Young Master." Then he closed the door with a "snap".

Qi Tianbai felt as if he was slapped severely on the face, turned his head and asked sharply: "Who lives here, who is so bold that he doesn't take His Majesty seriously?"

Zhou Shizhang opened his mouth, but with a helpless expression, he said, "The sons of the Ma family and the Zhu family live here."

Qi Tianbai swallowed back the angry curse, he could barely understand that Mr. Ma came here because he couldn't go to Guozixue.Then what is wrong with Mr. Zhu's family, and he wants to come to the place where the poor family lives?Even in front of Zhou Shizhang, Qi Tianbai could rely on the power of the Qi family to show off, but when he met the Ma family and the Zhu family at the same time, he didn't dare to act casually.

Soon, the book boy opened the door again, and he said: "My son said, it's getting late, everyone, please go back."

Although Qi Tianbai felt that he had lost face, he still planned to swallow his breath and report back later.The deputy came forward suddenly and whispered in his ear: "My lord, I searched everywhere, but I didn't find anyone, only..." Before he finished speaking, his eyes turned to the yard in front of him.Just haven't searched here.

Qi Tianbai gritted his teeth, took out the scroll just now, and said: "I, Qi Tianbai, came here by order from the Holy Majesty, please don't delay the official business." Although he didn't want to annoy those two families, he could still give priority to the errand at hand.In case that person is hiding in this yard, he can take advantage of this opportunity to knock down Zhu and Ma's family.

The book boy's face changed: "Hey, from the Qi family? My son's surname is Ma, and I won't see the Qi family in this life!" He was about to close the door.

Qi Tianbai winked, and an officer blocked the door.Qi Tianbai was going to forcefully go inside.

The book boy screamed, ran in, and shouted: "My lord, my lord! A man surnamed Qi forced his way in, saying that you are disrespectful to His Majesty by resisting the decree!"

Qi Tianbai was blocked by his words, he ground his teeth again, and forcefully held back the curse words.

The small courtyard is not big, and there are lights in several rooms.A foolish voice came from the east wing of the main house: "It's been three or seven, don't talk nonsense if you can't do things well, the Qi family should be more disciplined, they only broke into our house during the Chinese New Year, why it's only been five months, and you have to go to the house again? Breaking through once? That's impossible."
