Wang Ji has done so many evil things that it is difficult to describe them. Just the list of crimes committed by a few people in the room is already shocking.

As a result, this banquet, which was originally a gathering of people, turned into a gathering of accusations against Wang Ji, the Prime Minister of Pei State. Almost everyone was filled with indignation.

Seeing that everyone was getting more and more excited as they talked, Zhou Qi could only stand up and signal for everyone to be quiet for the time being, and then said: "To be honest, I returned to Xiang County this time because I was ordered by Captain Sili to investigate Wang Ji's case.

Commit something illegal."

"Brothers may not know that the reason why Wang Ji was so unscrupulous in Pei State was because of the power of his father Wang Fu in the court. Yang Shijun also wanted to completely eradicate Wang Fu and his minions by convicting Wang Ji.

”

"You are all locals of Xiang County. You are well aware of the evil deeds Wang Ji has done, and you are brothers who I can trust with my life. I would like to invite you to help me investigate the evidence of Wang Ji's crime and eradicate his minions. I wonder if you brothers can

Would you like to help me?"

After hearing the words, everyone agreed without any hesitation.

In this way, after the banquet was over, Zhou Qi made an appointment with everyone to meet in the city tomorrow. After seeing everyone off, he took a jug of wine and went alone to the old miser's grave. He stayed there for a long time before returning to the mansion.

Within.

At dawn the next day, Zhou Qi took Zhou Cheng and Xu Chu and rushed towards the city.

When Zhou Qi arrived in Xiang County, he first went to Lieutenant Liu's mansion to visit Zhou Gu, who had grown up with him. He breathed a sigh of relief when he saw that although Zhou Gu had not recovered from his injuries, his mental outlook had improved a lot.

After the old lady passed away, Zhou Gu, a nominal servant, became Zhou Qi's only relative in the world.

Zhou Qi looked at Zhou Gu, who was excited to see him, and said slightly reproachfully: "Before the incident, I told you to escape as soon as possible to avoid being implicated. Why didn't you leave and were caught by the officers and soldiers instead?"<

Zhou Gu scratched his head and said with a naive smile: "The old lady has passed away, and you, my little master, have fled far away. There is no one to take care of the house at home, no one to cultivate the fields, and no one to take care of the old lady's grave."

"Since I am a servant of the Zhou family, and the old lady and the young master treat me very well, how can I leave at this time?"

Zhou Qi was moved and angry when he heard this, and reproached: "I have committed such a big thing, and if the officers and soldiers can't catch me, how can I let you go? If you stay here and are caught by the officers and soldiers, how can you take care of the property and the house?"

How can I take care of my great father’s grave?”

"What's more, you also know the person who caused the trouble. If you can't bear the torture and extract confessions from the other brothers, won't you implicate them?"

Zhou Gu was so anxious after hearing this that he struggled to get up, and said with tears streaming down his face: "The day I was caught by the officers and soldiers, I was already prepared to die, and I would never dare to betray the brave men!"

Zhou Qi held him down, his tone softened slightly, and said: "Of course I know you won't confess everyone, but there's no guarantee that the government won't use you to trick everyone else into coming here and catch them all."

Having said this, Zhou Qi sighed deeply and said: "You must be careful in the future and never act like this again."

Zhou Gu wiped away his tears and nodded hurriedly.

Zhou Qi patted his shoulder and comforted him softly: "Just stay here and cultivate yourself. After I finish handling the matters assigned by Yang Shijun, I will ask you to do something else."

Zhou Gu looked surprised when he heard this and said: "Master, if you have something to do, please send me. I will go through fire and water without hesitation!"

But it was said that after Zhou Qi comforted Zhou Gu, he returned to the county government again, summoned Lieutenant Liu, and said: "Yang Shijun ordered us to investigate the crimes committed by Wang Ji, but our manpower is limited, and they are not local people.

, it’s not convenient to do things.”

"So this time Lieutenant Liu is needed to help. I wonder what Lieutenant Liu will do?"

Lieutenant Liu was overjoyed when he heard this and hurriedly said: "Since I am ordered by Yang Shijun, how can I not help you with all my strength? As many people as you need for Zhou's work, just give me your order and I will never refuse!"

After Zhou Qi heard this, he nodded with satisfaction and said: "I will recruit eight people from the countryside, and let each of them bring four knights from the Sili school, and then you will assign four county soldiers to each team to accompany them.

Go to the entire Xiang County to collect the crimes committed by Wang Ji."

"As for me, I will take Yang Zuoshi and the remaining knights to visit and investigate in the city."

"I wonder what Lieutenant Liu thinks?"

Lieutenant Liu naturally had no objections and agreed wholeheartedly.

If he had been worried before that Zhou Qi would avenge his personal revenge and try every means to collect evidence against him, then Zhou Qi's initiative to ask the county soldiers to accompany him completely relieved Lieutenant Liu.

In Lieutenant Liu's view, Zhou Qi's actions were nothing more than showing kindness to him.

This will be of great benefit to both parties.

With the help of Lieutenant Liu and the county soldiers, many troublesome things will be solved easily, which is definitely a good thing for Zhou Qi to investigate the evidence of Wang Ji's crime.

For Lieutenant Liu, by placing an informant in the investigation team, he no longer has to worry about Zhou Qi and others secretly investigating him.

In this way, Zhou Qi's township party members each brought eight people to investigate and collect evidence throughout Xiang County. Since the eight people were considered local gangsters, and with the strong support of the county soldiers, Wang Ji was unpopular.

It has been a long time, and now the government has sent people to investigate and collect evidence. Naturally, the victims and their families in the past have taken the initiative to file complaints.

In this way, a large amount of criminal evidence was collected for three consecutive days, and Yang Sashi was responsible for organizing it into documents.

When Zhou Qi looked at the collected crimes, his outlook was shattered.

Although he knew that Wang Ji was a cruel official and had done many horrifying bad things, he did not expect that his methods were so cruel. Just based on the evidence compiled, it can make people feel horrified.

Zhou Qi had previously charged Wang Ji with a heavier crime in order to quickly close the case, and originally planned to find someone to make perjury.

But when he saw these bloody accusations, he knew that even if he didn't add any fuel or jealousy, as long as he reported these things truthfully, it would be enough to shock the government and the public, and implicate Wang Fu, a great eunuch.

Taking a deep breath, Zhou Qi looked at Yang Zuoshi, who was extremely busy, and said in a low voice: "I have been secretly visiting the city in the past few days. Although I have collected some negative information about Lieutenant Liu, I want to move it based on these materials alone."

It’s not easy to pour.”

"If we want to take action, we must use thunderous means to kill him with a fatal blow, otherwise he will be counterattacked, and the other party will even report the matter of Yang Shijun's shielding me to the court, causing trouble out of thin air."

Yang Zuoshi put down the document in his hand and said, "What does Zhou Zhizhi plan to do?"
