    Under the dim candlelight, Miao Cai put down his chopsticks, stared sharply at Wu Zhenrui, who was slightly drunk, and looked him up and down carefully.

    After a while, Miao Cai shook his head with a smile, took a sip from his wine glass, and then slowly opened his mouth.

    "Don't open your mouth yet, let me guess what you want to say." Miao Cai said with a smile.

    Miao Cai stared at Wu Zhenrui and said, "I heard that in the afternoon, the old housekeeper of your Wu family arrived at Yunxi Mansion. Maybe he told you something?"

    After hearing Miao Cai's words, Wu Zhenrui was also shocked, and suddenly his head became clearer.

    "Master Miao, how do you know?"

    Wu Zhenrui stared at Miao Cai who was picking up vegetables for himself, and his heart was filled with huge waves.

    Because the old housekeeper rushed to the pig farm in the outskirts of the city quietly, and returned quickly after delivering the message.

    As an important official of Yunxi Mansion, Miao Cai naturally couldn't know a servant of their Wu family.

    But now, Miao Cai actually told the story of the old butler looking for him in the afternoon, so why can't Wu Zhenrui be shocked.

    Facing the shocked Wu Zhenrui, Miao Cai chewed the dishes, as if everything was so natural.

    "What you want to tell me is that there are gentry and rich men secretly colluding to try to mess up our Yunxi mansion?" Miao Cai continued to smile.

    After hearing Miao Cai's words, Wu Zhenrui couldn't help showing a wry smile despite being shocked.

    Fortunately, I was still uneasy, thinking about how to remind Miao Cai tactfully, people know everything about their feelings.

    "Master Miao, since you know everything, I don't need to say more."

    Wu Zhenrui picked up the wine glass, raised his head and poured a glass of wine down his throat. He immediately felt that his throat was hot and full of bitterness.

    "You can't say that. You took the initiative to come and tell me, which shows that you still have a conscience. Your heart is for our Qinghe army, and you are not with them." Miao Cai said with a smile.

    "Our Qinghe army always treats friends with courtesy, but naturally it will not show mercy to enemies. Brother Wu, one day in the future, I believe you will not regret your choice today." Miao Cai personally poured out the money for Wu Zhenrui  Had a glass of wine.

    Wu Zhenrui said: "Master Miao, I don't know how you know they are colluding secretly, but I still want to remind you that they have been cultivating in Yunxi Mansion for many years, and their power is far from being as weak as it appears on the surface. You must be careful."  .¡±

    "Brother Wu, don't worry, they are just a bunch of clowns."

    "They think that they can do whatever they want without the general's presence, but they forgot that Yunxi Mansion is now our Qinghe Army's place, and they can't tolerate their presumptuousness."

    "How are you going to deal with them?" Wu Zhenrui asked curiously.

    "If they rein in the precipice, we can forgive them once. If they insist on fighting against our Qinghe army, we don't mind letting them disappear from this world."

    Although Miao Cai's words were calm, Wu Zhenrui felt his scalp tingling, because disappearing meant a bloody killing.

    "Brother Wu, you don't have to worry. We are on our own now. As long as you work hard, we will never know how rich we will become."

    "I have important matters to deal with tomorrow, so I won't accompany you any longer. Brother Wu should go out less these days to avoid being accidentally injured."

    After Miao Cai ate some food and wine, and chatted with Wu Zhenrui for a while, he quickly said goodbye and left.

    After Wu Zhenrui heard Miao Cai's words that he seemed to have all the chances of winning, while he was relieved, he also felt a little scared.

    Judging from Miao Cai's tone, it seems that the Qinghe army has always sent people to monitor them, the gentry and rich men, and they are very clear about their every move.

    This time, the old housekeeper of his own family came to spread the word quietly, and Miaocai knew about it, so the situation of other country gentry and wealthy owners may be similar.

    If I made a mistake this time, I am afraid that not only my hard-working career will be ruined, but my life will also be in danger.

    And he seemed to be walking on the edge of a knife, which made Wu Zhenrui feel like he was surviving after a catastrophe.

    After Wu Zhenrui learned from Miao Cai's mouth that the government had already known the situation, his heart also settled down.

    In addition to sending people back to Wujiabao's home and repeatedly emphasizing that his father should not get involved, he began to live in seclusion.

    In the past few days when Wu Zhenrui lived in seclusion, there were also good news from the front line, that is, the Qinghe Army was attackingYanhe defeated the civilian army, beheaded more than 10,000 people and captured thousands of people.

    After the news came back, the entire Yunxi Mansion was shrouded in an atmosphere of jubilation, but those gentry and rich men who were hiding in the dark couldn't sit still.

    They felt that they had to act immediately to cooperate with the 20th Corps of the Militia Army on the front line.

    ? If the Qinghe army was allowed to win battles every day, how long would it take for them to return to the embrace of the imperial court.

    "My lord, they are going to act tomorrow night."

    The country gentry and rich lords run rampant in the countryside on weekdays, but when it comes to the strictness of the organization, they are very poor.

    They just made a plan of action here, and the Intelligence and Investigation Department soon knew everything about it.

    "Master Director, do we want to arrest them in advance?"

    Deputy director Zhai Wenjing became excited when she heard that the gentry were about to take action.

    After all, if their Intelligence and Investigation Division can defeat the squires' sabotage this time, that would be a great achievement.

    "No, just let our people watch, they can do whatever they want, don't stop them."

    Zhai Wenjing, the deputy director, was in a hurry: "My lord, if we don't arrest them, wouldn't it be intentional to let them do evil?"

    "If we catch them now, the common people will think that we are framing good people. I just let them jump out on purpose, and wait for them to wreak havoc as much as they want, and then it will be logical to catch them all."

    Although the deputy director, Zhai Wenjing, felt that doing so would cause some damage and chaos in a short period of time, the effect would be much better if they jumped out and then caught them.

    When the Yunxi government turned a blind eye and the intelligence and investigation department deliberately condoned it, the gentry and rich men quickly took action.

    The country gentry and rich men accumulated a lot of money, and they went to nearby counties to buy off a lot of bandits and bandits.

    These bandits sneaked into the territory of Yunxi Mansion secretly. Although they didn't know it, they were actually under the surveillance of the Intelligence Investigation Department.

    Following the plans of the country gentry and rich lords, these bandits and bandits quickly organized and began to attack various places of the Qinghe Army's subordinate government.

    In Leyuan and Dianhe counties, more than 20 towns were occupied by bandits in just one night, and the local security teams were "destroyed".  The leader of the Qinghe Army.

    Several places where the Qinghe army stored grain and grass were also attacked, but the guards of the Military Supplies Department had already prepared themselves and did not allow anyone to succeed.

    There were also riots in the city of Yunxi Prefecture, some shops were set on fire, and some people tried to assassinate officials at all levels of the government affairs government.

    Facing the attacks and sabotages everywhere, the people also suffered a certain degree of impact. Many people's property was robbed, and the land was taken back by the gentry and the rich.

    The gentry and rich lords have endured the high pressure of the Qinghe Army for so long, and now they have found a flash point. They beat and insulted many people who supported the Qinghe Army to vent their anger.

    The country gentry and rich lords made a comeback, causing complaints for a while, and the common people felt that the sky was about to fall. Many people fled the villages and towns one after another, and rushed to Yunxi Mansion to ask the Qinghe Army for help.  (Remember the site URL: www.hlnovel.com
