Chapter 578 How to deal with the Huo family
"It's okay. The government is the big boss of the sales department. We live in the countryside. As long as we don't stop paying grain taxes, we are still considered landowners. The definition is vague. With the county magistrate as a guarantor, it won't be a problem."
Su Wanwan felt relieved only after Shen Yuan explained.
"That's fine. I was thinking that if we were considered businessmen, we could separate from Shen Zhao. No one has stipulated that we can't live together after the separation."
Hearing about the separation, the two children who had just finished their meal immediately shook their heads:
"I won't separate from my uncle, we are one family."
Yue'er's head shook like a rattle.
Yun Yi also shook his head:
"If it doesn't affect us, then we won't split up the family. My uncle is still young, how can we split up the family?"
The couple laughed.
These two children are very close to their uncle.
But speaking of it, Xiao Yue'er is Shen Zhao's niece, but Yun Yi has no blood relationship with Shen Zhao.
Regardless of whether there is blood relationship or not, after living together for a long time, the feelings will be closer than those between blood relatives.
......
In the capital, Ye Mufei entered the palace overnight.
Yun Xuanshuo also received the secret letter from Shen Yuan.
I didn't expect that even though Huo Xiangxi was caught, there was actually someone behind the scenes.
Who is behind Huo Xiangxi?
Originally, they thought that by capturing the Huo family rebels, the evidence would be solid, and the Huo family could execute them, and everything would return to normal.
Unexpectedly, it was filled with mystery.
Huo Xiangxi would rather die and take the Huo family with him than give out the person behind the scenes. Who else in the court has the ability to make Huo Xiangxi sacrifice like this?
Yun Xuanshuo sat for a long time, and he couldn't make up his mind about what to do with the Huo family.
According to Shen Yuan, no one else knew about Huo Xiangxi's arrest except his people, not even Wei Yuanxiong and Xu Huaiyuan.
They just thought that the man fell off the cliff and died.
The people behind the scenes probably thought Huo Xiangxi was dead, and they killed Huo Xiangxi's lackeys to silence them, which means they really didn't know that Huo Xiangxi was still alive.
Shen Yuan also said in his letter that he had discovered that someone had gone to the cliff to look for corpses, and Shen Yuan had created the illusion that the corpses were eaten by wild beasts in order to confuse the other party.
Yun Xuanshuo played chess for a long time in front of him.
Since General Huo Yuan has already taken so many actions, and the people behind the scenes also believe that Huo Xiangxi is dead, they cannot let General Huo down.
If the Huo family was dealt with at this time, the person behind the scenes would definitely guess that Huo Xiangxi was not dead, and would try every means to find Huo Xiangxi and kill him to silence him.
This is also the reason why Shen Yuan did not dare to send Huo Xiangxi to Beijing rashly.
Now we have alerted the enemy. The people behind the scenes must be more cautious, and Shen Yuan is probably also being monitored.
Once we catch the person behind this, we'll deal with him together.
Just as he was thinking, Ye Mufei came hurriedly.
"Your Majesty, I have received the news from Shen Yuan. What do you plan to do?"
When Ye Mufei received the news, he immediately came to discuss with His Majesty.
There is someone behind Huo Xiangxi, and now the enemy has been alerted. A single move will affect the entire body. Now it is extremely important to deal with the Huo family.
Yun Xuanshuo also wanted to hear the opinion of Ye's uncle.
"What does the Duke of Zhenguo think?"
Ye Mufei had thought about this question a long time ago, and answered immediately:
"The Huo family cannot be left here. Regardless of whether the Huo family is dealt with or not, the people behind the scenes have already begun to take precautions."
Ye Mufei looked at the chessboard, picked up a black piece and placed it gently.
"Deal with the Huo family and scare the tiger away."
Ye Mufei uttered a few words, Yun Xuanshuo's eyes trembled, he looked at the chessboard and said:
"Appreciate further details."
Ye Mufei reached out and pulled out a few black pieces, and the chessboard immediately became messy.
"Now that this matter has moved from the dark to the light, whether the Huo family handles it or not, the people behind the scenes have already started to take precautions. There is no need to worry about whether Huo Xiangxi will be arrested, let alone whether there is substantial evidence to prove that the Huo family is involved in this matter.
Since Shen Yuan has created a false situation, everyone believes that Huo Xiangxi is dead. According to what Shen Yuan said, Huo Xiangxi is the only one in the Huo family who knows about the man behind the scenes, so the man behind the scenes will definitely not care too much about the outcome of the other members of the Huo family.
It is a tacit understanding among everyone that His Majesty wants to deal with the Huo family. With this opportunity, if he does not deal with the Huo family, people will become suspicious. Regardless of whether there is evidence or not, if His Majesty says there is, then there is. Lord Chen may not necessarily confess, but who knows whether he will confess or not. His Majesty said that he accused the Huo family, so it is true.
No matter what, put the Huo family in jail first, slowly find evidence, slowly interrogate them, and maybe that will make the people behind the scenes more relaxed. "
Ye Mufei finished speaking in one breath, and the chess game on the table had changed.
Yun Xuanshuo is, after all, a common emperor. He has enough benevolence but not enough imperial skills.
But he is not stupid.
After hearing these words and thinking about them carefully, I understood the truth.
"I understand. In this case, the person behind the scenes only thought that I suspected the Huo family, but the most important witness died, and there was no evidence to deal with the Huo family. So he used the Chen family's incrimination to put the Huo family in jail first, and then slowly take action."
Yun Xuanshuo secretly sighed that he was not thoughtful and tactful enough.
In this way, the people behind the scenes will relax their vigilance because they will put all their attention on the Huo family.
"Yes, if things go as expected, news of Huo Xiangxi's death will spread from Pingliao County in the next two days."
After all, the people behind the scenes knew that Huo Xiangxi was dead, but everyone still thought that Huo Xiangxi was doing well in the garrison. Huo Xiangxi's inexplicable disappearance always made people think of the iron mine case.
Of course, they would not announce the news of Huo Xiangxi's death right after the iron mine case was settled. They would have to wait some time, and before Chen Wenjin was escorted back to Beijing, they would have to make Huo Xiangxi die in a reasonable way, preferably by committing suicide out of fear of punishment.
Then he put all the blame on the Huo family.
"Well, come here, it's Ye Xingyuan, the assistant minister of the Ministry of Justice."
Yun Xuanshuo had an idea. Chen Wenjin was still on his way to Beijing, but now that he had received the news, he naturally had to deal with the Chen family first.
Ye Mufei had already guessed that he was planning to arrest the Chen family and put them in jail first.
Within two days of the Chen family being imprisoned, the Huo family was next in line.
In prison, I don’t know how long that bastard Chen Shangshu can last, and whether he will betray Huo Xiangxi.
While thinking, Ye Xingyuan came here following the order.
He was promoted to Vice Minister of the Ministry of Justice a while ago.
"Young Master Chen Liu mined iron ore privately and colluded with rebels. The Chen Mansion was confiscated and everyone was temporarily imprisoned!"
Yun Xuanshuo had already asked someone to draft the imperial edict. Ye Xingyuan was shocked, but when he saw his father was also here, he didn't think much about it and immediately took the order and left:
"Yes!"
He received the imperial edict and, with a group of people, went to Chen's Mansion in a grand and magnificent manner without any delay.
This was the first time he came to search a house since taking office, and it was the Chen family.
How dare the Chen family collude with rebels and secretly mine iron ore?
Why didn't he know anything?
It seems his father should know about it, and he hid it very well.
Who will deal with the illegal mining of iron ore and the rebels this time?
Could the iron mine be in Beichang Prefecture?
Xu Huaiyuan thought about how his second sister had left some people in Zhaojia Village some time ago, saying that Ye Lei was missing. Then he thought about some other things and vaguely guessed something.
