Chongxi [rebirth]

Zhu Wen secretly went to Luzhou.In order not to let Yang Buwei discover the clue, the excuse on the surface was to go to Zhouju Town to take over the gold mine.In fact, after arriving at Zhouju Town, he would divert from Zhouju Town and go directly to Luzhou.

As expected, Yang Buwei didn't realize that something was wrong. A few days after Zhu Wen left, he didn't move for the time being. Instead, he secretly stared at his dark guard to report, saying that the person who secretly contacted Yang Buwei quietly left the city to go to the city. Went to a small village outside the city.There are about [-] people in that village, and they should all be dead men.

Ye Yunting guessed that Yang Buwei was about to look for an opportunity to make a move.

He was not in a hurry, and was still the same as before, busy with the garment workshop during the day, and went to the outer city with Zhu Wen to inspect the outer city from time to time to check the construction progress of the outer city.Just waiting for Yang Buwei to make a move.

As soon as the time turned, several days passed. On this day, Ye Yunting was discussing with Zhu Lie how to resettle the refugees. Then he heard the report, saying that there was a dispute among the refugees in the outer city, and there was even a dispute. casualties.

"What's going on?" Ye Yunting was startled, got up immediately, signaled Zhu Lie to postpone the discussion on the resettlement of the refugees, and followed the official who reported the letter out of the Dudu's mansion.

The construction of the outer city is gradually improving, and the refugees are beginning to settle down. If there is another disturbance, the previous efforts will be in vain.

"There are two groups of people fighting." The official who reported the letter followed him out, and told him the general situation.

It is probably because these refugees have a good relationship with each other in recent days, and they often work in one place and rest in one place, and gradually form a small group.Because these refugees are doing their own jobs on weekdays, and there are no major conflicts, so no one cares about these refugees forming cliques in private.But today I don't know what happened, the two gangs suddenly started fighting in the morning when they left for work. After two people were killed and more than a dozen people were injured, the incident became serious.

At this time, the disadvantages of forming cliques are revealed. The side of the dead person wants to pay in blood, and refuses to let it go.The side that hurts people also protects the person who did it, and bites the person who does not admit that he injured it.The two sides were at a stalemate, and the self-defense force formed by the refugees brought people to mediate, but both sides refused to be convinced, and the situation was stalemate for a while.

The leader of the Self-Defense Forces was afraid that things would go wrong.So he hurriedly reported it, and then it reached Ye Yunting.

Ye Yunting paused in a hurry, glanced at the official who led him to the outside of the city, his eyes darkened: "Why can't such a trivial matter be resolved, and you still have to report it to me?"

The person who reported the letter was a seventh-rank official who was recently transferred to an outer city to handle errands. Ye Yunting had met him several times. This person was timid, but he was obedient and willing to do things. But things haven't gone awry.Now that I have encountered such a thing, it makes sense to find him here.But the problem is that this person is not someone who can leapfrog. According to the normal procedure, he should go to his immediate boss Cao Yiren first.Even if the situation is serious and he needs to come forward, it should be reported by his immediate superior.

Now that he hastily found him, Ye Yunting had to pay more attention.

The official was stunned for a moment when he heard the words, and then said hesitatingly: "Master Cao drank too much wine last night, and today he feels a little unwell, and he is still resting in the mansion."

In fact, this is just his euphemistic way of saying it. In fact, his immediate boss was drunk last night. When he looked for him today, he was still awake.He couldn't wake up no matter how much he screamed, and he couldn't make up his mind. He was afraid that there would be a big mess if he was too late, so he came to find Ye Yunting to take charge of the overall situation when he had no choice.

"Drink too much wine?"

Probably Yang Buwei, the evil wolf, was at his side, and Ye Yunting couldn't help but think a little more. At this juncture, something happened to the homeless, but the official in charge of it drank too much alcohol, so the people below had to ask him for advice.

He has dealt with Cao Yiren a lot these days, and he works hard on weekdays, and he is not the kind of person who is careless and casual in dereliction of duty.

This one seems to have been calculated. First, Cao Yiren was intentionally drunk, and then there was a commotion. The people below had no backbone, so they could only come looking for him.It is reasonable to lure him to the outer city.

"Do you know who you are drinking with?"

"I don't know." The official thought for a while, shook his head, and said: "Master Cao is addicted to alcohol, but he usually tells the lower officials that drunkenness is a mistake, so unless he takes a bath, he will not drink at all."

After today's accident, he went looking for it and found that his immediate boss was drunk and unconscious. Although it was a bit strange, he thought that it might be because the other party had some good wine that he couldn't hold back, so he didn't think too much about it.

There was no result from the question, but Ye Yunting still kept an eye out.

When the two rushed to the outer city, they saw two groups of people still confronting each other.In the open space in the middle were two corpses covered in white cloth.People on both sides were extremely emotional, some cried bitterly, and some cursed.

Because the Self-Defense Forces blocked in the middle, it was barely possible for the two sides to fight again.

Ye Yunting listened outside for a while before he understood something.

Of these two groups of people, one group is local refugees from northern Xinjiang, while the other group is refugees from other state capitals.Because of the different regions, the two groups of people naturally divided their positions, similar to the conflict between locals and outsiders. There have been many conflicts and frictions between the two groups on weekdays. Until this morning, the refugees on the northern side of Xinjiang dead people.

The person who died was a young man, the younger brother of one of the leaders of the refugees in northern Xinjiang.What's even more coincidental is that the boy had a quarrel with several people yesterday, causing some conflicts.Those who clashed with him belonged to another group of outside refugees without any surprise.

After discovering the young man's body, the leader brought someone directly to the opposite party to question him, suspecting that the other party had killed him with a grudge.There had been a long-standing grievance between the two groups, and when they saw the leader approaching aggressively to avenge his younger brother, they pushed and shoved when they blocked him, and then fought.

The people who came forward were all young and energetic men, their eyes were red during the fight, and they died somehow, so the situation got out of hand.

Ye Yunting frowned, feeling something was wrong.

There are many exiles in the outer city, it is inevitable that there will be conflicts and frictions when they gather together, Ye Yunting is aware of this.But these refugees cherish the hard-won stable life very much, so although there are frictions and conflicts, they never do anything, at most they are just a few quarrels-they are afraid that they will be driven away if there is a big trouble, so they are still reasonable .

But today's scene is full of weirdness everywhere.

While thinking, Ye Yunting appeared and walked between the two groups of people.

The leader of the self-defense force saw him coming, wiped the sweat from his forehead, and finally breathed a sigh of relief.

When the two groups of people who were confronting each other saw him, they also fell silent, and some people shouted: "Princess, they are deceiving people too much, you have to give us justice!"

As soon as the words fell, another group of people immediately sneered back: "We are the ones who want to judge. If you rushed over early in the morning to shout and kill, and even killed our people, you should be arrested!"

"The thief shouting, "Catch the thief, are you shameless?! If you kill someone for your life, you should be arrested and driven out of Northern Xinjiang!"

"That's right! Where did you come from?"

"..."

The quiet crowd started to yell again, and the leader of the self-defense force yelled a few times but no one paid any attention, so he could only wipe off his sweat to maintain order, so as not to break through the line of defense and fight, hurting the princess.

Ye Yunting stood in the center and didn't say anything to stop him.He looked coldly, and saw that the two groups of people were fighting with red faces and thick necks, and the crowd kept pushing forward.

With his eyes narrowed, he slowly scanned every angry face, and then he noticed something was wrong.

None of these refugees had ever read a book, and the cursing was ugly and unorganized, and they were purely venting their emotions.But there were a few of them who didn't talk much, and their faces were very calm, but every word and every word was stirring up the emotions of these refugees.It's like a drop of water into boiling oil, causing the oil to radiate.

His eyes were slightly cold, and he was almost sure that this conflict was deliberately provoked by someone who fanned the flames.

And the purpose... If he guessed right, it was probably for him.

Once these refugees lose control of their emotions and fight, he is in it, and it is only reasonable for him to be "accidentally" affected by the red-eyed refugees.

Seeing the two groups of refugees who were furious and ready to fight at the slightest disagreement, Ye Yunting did not back down.He took out a copper whistle from his sleeve and blew it. The loud whistle echoed in the sky, and the angry crowd barely regained their sense and quieted down.They all looked at Ye Yunting in the middle.

Ye Yunting put away his whistle, still with a gentle and gentle look: "It's about two lives, and it's not something you can quarrel with. You two should nominate a leader, and follow me to the yamen to handle this matter. I This matter must be investigated and dealt with impartially.”

After the words fell, the people present looked at each other in blank dismay. What Princess Yong'an has done these days is convincing, so they didn't hesitate for too long, and someone from the northern Xinjiang refugee side stood up: "The one who was killed was my younger brother. I will go with the princess. Yamen, I just ask the princess to give my younger brother justice and bring the criminal to justice!"

Seeing someone coming out from the opposite side, an old man also stood up from the side of the refugees: "Leizi will never kill people, but today they killed both of us, everyone can testify. The old man has read books for a few days, and he can I am willing to take a trip with the princess."

Ye Yunting was about to ask people to follow him to the yamen, when he heard someone from the side of the refugees speak, the voice was neither high nor low, but it just happened to be overheard: "We don't know what will happen after entering the yamen. .”

Someone immediately echoed: "Yes, they are all from northern Xinjiang, we are foreigners, and no one supports us..."

The other side was unhappy when he heard it: "What nonsense are you talking about? The princess is the most fair. You can't frame us, and you want to discredit the princess?"

The situation that was about to calm down was sparked again because of several different voices.

Ye Yunting narrowed his eyes, pointed to a person and said, "Bring him up."

There was a small space around the person being pointed at. He looked around in a panic, and asked, "I don't know what I did wrong? The princess wants to arrest me?"

Ye Yunting ignored him, glanced around again, and selected three more people from memory.Two are from the foreign refugee team, and the other is from the northern Xinjiang refugee team.

People from the Self-Defense Forces arrested them all, and the four people who were detained looked panic-stricken and kept shouting for grievances.

"Do you know them?" Ye Yunting asked the leaders on both sides.

The two looked at each other, shook their heads and said, "I'm not familiar with it, maybe they are newcomers who came later." Then they asked, "Which team are you in?"

The leaders are all elected by the refugees themselves, and they are divided into small teams, and each team has a small leader, so that it is easier to manage and convey information in a timely manner.If new refugees join, new squads will be added.

However, these four people hesitated and couldn't answer.

The leaders on both sides realized that something was wrong, and turned to ask the team leader over there: "Which team is this from? Claim it yourself."

However, when the words fell, no one claimed them. Instead, the team leaders said one after another: "I don't know, it's not from our team."

The old man recommended by the foreign refugees frowned tightly. He was old and had seen many ghosts and ghosts. He immediately realized that something was wrong. His pair of cloudy eyes swept over the three of them, and suddenly noticed that one of them had plunged into the hole. He touched the hem of his clothes in the waistband, and said in surprise: "There is blood on the hem of his clothes!"

When Ye Yunting heard this, he fixed his eyes and saw that there were black and red blood-stained plaques on the hem of the clothes that had been pierced in.

"Pull out the hem of his clothes."

The members of the Self-Defense Forces immediately arrested him and pulled out the hem of his clothes, which was tied into his trousers. It was indeed stained with blood, and it hadn't dried completely, obviously it had just been stained.

Ye Yunting frowned, and after a little thought, he understood where the blood came from.Turning to look at the two leaders: "Has the person who killed the man in the conflict not been found yet?"

The two shook their heads in unison: "The situation was too chaotic at the time, and no one knew who was the killer." When they asked later, no one admitted.

"Then it seems that this is one of the murderers." Ye Yunting's eyes were slightly cold, and he said, "Take him back for another trial!"

After finishing speaking, he raised his eyes to look at the two waves of refugees who didn't know why, and said loudly: "Today's incident was deliberately provoked. I will definitely find out the truth and give an explanation to the dead and everyone." After a pause, he looked at the refugees with different faces, and said again: "Since everyone has chosen to stay in Weizhou, no matter where you came from before, you will be the people of Weizhou in the future. The prince and I will treat each other equally."

"The nature of this matter is bad. After the investigation of the cause, it will be heard publicly. Everyone can go back and wait."

After finishing speaking, he nodded to the others: "Let's go, go to the yamen first."

He dealt with it fairly, and he said that the trial would be open. In addition, only four unidentified people were found out. This time, no one in the crowd made a sound.They all watched the group go to the yamen in place.

The dead men hiding in the crowd did not dare to speak rashly to fan the flames, and exchanged glances cryptically, preparing to implement the second plan.

Before they came, the master had explained that it would be best to stir up a fight between the two sides of the refugees, mix in and kill Ye Yunting without anyone noticing, and then push him to the angry refugees.But if it fails, they will try to cause chaos and directly surround and kill them.

At this time, Ye Yunting was only surrounded by members of the Self-Defense Forces. These people were all picked out of the refugees, and their skills were not much better.

This is the best chance.

Seeing that people were about to leave, the eyes of several dead men hiding in the crowd sharpened, they took out their daggers and stabbed at the nearest person, shouting "Killer" to create chaos, while approaching Ye Yunting.

The stabbed man clutched his wound and fell down screaming. The refugees scattered around him in shock.Because they didn't know who was hurting people, the crowd suddenly exploded, evading and fleeing in panic.

Ye Yunting was protected by the Self-Defense Forces, seeing that no matter how chaotic the situation was, it would lead to irreversible consequences, so he blew the copper whistle again.This time the whistle was sharp and rapid, and before it even fell, a long whistle responded, and then two huge falcons swooped down, clawing at the dead man who was holding a dagger and making chaos.

The dead man was attacked and was not allowed to return the knife to avoid the counterattack.

The refugees in the surrounding area finally discovered the source of the danger, and they fled in the opposite direction to those dead soldiers.

"Take them down!" Seeing that the people had dispersed to avoid them, Ye Yunting immediately gave the order.

Following the whistle, not only the Saker Falcon, but also the well-trained Xuanjia Army came.

The situation was too chaotic before, the dead men had been using the cover of ordinary refugees, hiding in crowded places, afraid of hurting innocent people, Ye Yunting didn't ask the Xuanjia army to take action immediately, now the refugees scattered away from the dead men, lost the cover, Xuan Armored Armor immediately made a move.

More than a dozen dead soldiers wanted to kill Ye Yunting through the chaos, but they were surrounded by the Xuanjia army before they found a chance to do so.Seeing that they were invincible, several people looked at each other and chose to commit suicide with a horizontal knife.

Fortunately, the Xuanjia army reacted quickly, captured the rest of them alive, and removed their jaws, so they didn't die.

"Take everyone back." Ye Yunting's face was frosty, and anger was in his eyes.

In order to cause chaos, these dead men did not care about the lives of ordinary refugees. Because they did not respond in time at the beginning, they injured many people.Fortunately, the situation was controlled in time, so that the casualties did not increase.

But even so, seeing those refugees coming out of their shelter in panic, anger still surged in his chest.

Yang Buwei wanted to kill him, but he didn't feel angry, he could use the refugees to cover himself, but it was too base and unscrupulous.

It was the first time he had the intention to kill. It would definitely be a disaster for such a vicious person to keep him.

He ordered the Xuanjia Army to escort the people, but Ye Yunting did not go back to the county government directly, but called the Wolf King who was wandering around not far away, and went to Cao Yiren's mansion.

The sober Cao Yiren just heard the news from the outer city, secretly scolding himself for being drunk, and hurried out of the city after putting on his clothes, but bumped into Ye Yunting on the way.

He bowed tremblingly, not daring to say more, and confessed directly.

Ye Yunting didn't break up with him, but asked bluntly: "Who were you drinking with last night?"

Cao Yiren didn't know why, but he answered honestly: "Mr. Yang, General Zhao Shen and others."

Yang Buwei recently got a few jars of good wine, and he invited him and a few other people to drink with him last night. His kindness was hard to refrain from, and he was really greedy for wine, so he couldn't resist drinking a jar of wine. Who knew that the wine had such a good stamina Great, let him miss a big deal.

"It's really him."

With cold eyes, Ye Yunting turned his head and asked, "Where is Yang Buwei now?"

"Inspecting on the tower."

"Call ten people, let me go and get them. The rest will take the criminals back for strict interrogation!" Ye Yunting was furious in his heart, and regardless of the lack of evidence, he led them directly to the tower.

Yang Buwei already knew about the movements in the outer city.He hesitated for a moment between leaving immediately and standing still, and chose to stay still.

What he did was concealed, and the one who did it was a dead man. As long as there is no evidence, he can't be caught.But if you can't hold your breath and run away, it will attract more attention.At that time, the Yin family will absolutely abandon him, and he can only remain anonymous for the rest of his life as a fugitive.

He collected himself, and continued to patrol back and forth on the tower with his hands behind his back.

When Ye Yunting led the men aggressively up the tower to look for him, he raised his eyebrows and pretended to be surprised: "What happened?"

"Take it." But Ye Yunting didn't say much to him, he just raised his hand, and the wolf king beside him rushed out like a gust of wind, throwing Yang Buwei to the ground, his sharp teeth were only a stone away from his throat ruler.

Feeling this indescribable humiliation again under the eyes of everyone, Yang Buwei tightened his jaw: "Dare to ask me what I did wrong, the princess insulted me like this?"

Ye Yunting looked at him expressionlessly, seeing that he could still pretend to be innocent at this time, he sneered and said, "You will know soon."

After speaking, he called back the wolf king, and said to the rest of the people, "Take him back."

The Xuanjia army obeyed his orders, and they did not hesitate to attack, cut Yang Buwei's hands behind his back, and escorted him away from the tower.
