Although Zhao Mengguan was only from the sixth rank of a hundred households, changing the position of his trousers to his bra was more important. Jin Yiwei was responsible for the local gossip and supervision of hundreds of officials. At the same time, he also had direct channels to the Holy Listening, so the power in his hands was huge.

To put it bluntly, if Zhao Meng is concerned about black spots and falsely accuses Mao Jiao of corruption, bribery, arrogance and lawlessness, even if Mao Jiao is deeply connected and has a strong background, there is still no problem in stripping you of your skin.

According to the military system of the Ming Dynasty, Mao Jiao was the commander-in-chief of all the armies on Hainan Island. In other words, Mao Jiao was also the nominal commander of the Jinyiwei. But Mao Jiao dared to instruct the Jinyiwei group at will, and even asked them to come as witnesses today.

, it was also run by Zhao Fuxiang.

Mao Jiao had no relationship with Zhao Mengguan before, so now that he had this opportunity, he would not let it go. After letting Zhao Mengguan sit down first, he sat down with him, and then said with a smile: "Master Zhao, I used to be afraid of your reputation.

, I didn’t dare to get close to my subordinates, but after today I realized that Mr. Zhao is amiable and amiable, and he is really a role model!"

Mao Jiao is a commander, with an official rank of the fifth rank, but now he calls himself a subordinate official in front of a hundred households from the sixth rank. It is really shameless. If Zhao Fuxiang were to make fun of Mao Jiao, he would have no moral bottom line.

Zhao Mengguan smiled slightly and said: "Mr. Mao, I am responsible for rumors and gossip. Naturally, it is not easy to interact with local officials. However, when I went to Qiongzhou Prefecture, I heard many times that Mr. Mao is an upright and honest official. He is a rare and good person.

Officer!"

If Mao Jiao is a good official, then the father and son of the Zhang family who were killed just now are peerless Qingtian. It is obvious that what Zhao Mengguan said was ironic. Mao Jiao was so frightened that he sweated and said quickly: "Master Zhao said that

Yes! By the way, I have some local fruits at home, all shipped from Yazhou, and they will be delivered to Lord Zhao’s house for a taste tonight!"

Mao Jiao openly bribed, but how could Zhao Mengguan be interested in those thirty melons and two dates you gave him? Zhao Mengguan was interested in Zhang Chengde's family property.

"Master Mao, I don't like fruits very much, so I won't bother you, Master Mao! When the prisoner's property is searched today, I will be present throughout the process, and the emperor must not suffer any losses!"

Jinyiwei was the emperor's domestic slave. Zhao Mengguan moved the emperor out. Mao Jiao knew that he was probably going to bleed heavily today!

But there was nothing he could do about it, so Mao Jiao had no choice but to laugh and say, "Yes, Mr. Zhao is absolutely right!"

Mao Jiao didn't dare to say anything at this time, so he had to accompany Zhao Mengguan with extra caution, while waiting for news about Zhang Rong outside the city.

Haikou occupies a small area, that is, the area around Haikou Qilou Old Street in later generations. The entire city has a population of only more than 5,000, which is slightly larger than the towns in the mainland. Because Haikou is a military fortress, among the 5,000 people

Most of them were military households, so Zhang Rong led 200 soldiers walking on the street without causing much confusion.

Zhang Rong led the team to the school field in front of the Qianhu Institute and said to the soldiers on duty: "The commander-in-chief has given orders to gather all the troops from the Biao camp!"

Because all the officers had gone out of the city to greet Mao Jiao, and the largest officer in the city was Zhang Rong, and Zhang Rong was Zhang Chengde's second-in-command, naturally the soldiers on duty did not have any doubts and rushed into the Qianhu Yamen to summon the one hundred servants.

These one hundred servants are all veterans and are very efficient. Within fifteen minutes after receiving the order, they stood neatly in front of Zhang Rong. Most of these people were Zhang Rong's comrades in arms. Zhang Rong looked at these people and smiled.

: "Long time no see, brothers!"

(This chapter is not finished, please turn the page)

Several of these servants said with a smile: "Brother Zhang, where have you been these past few days? We brothers should have a drink if we have a chance!"

Zhang Rong also said with a smile: "Of course it's no problem. After my brother finishes the important things, I'll treat him to a treat and arrange for everyone to drink for three days and three nights!"

Zhang Rong straightened his face after finishing speaking, and then said loudly: "Commander Mao of the branch has a military order. Zhang Chengde, a thousand households in the Haikou garrison, together with Zhang Guozheng, a thousand households in the previous generation, and Ying Wenli, a hundred households on the right, are inspecting the Haikou garrison by the commander-in-chief.

The actual intention was to assassinate the commander-in-chief, and now these three people have been executed on the spot! I am temporarily in charge of the Thousand Households in Haikou!"

Zhang Rong's words were like thunder, causing the hundred people to stand there stunned. They didn't expect that Zhang Chengde and his son had just left, but now they were all killed. Things changed too fast.

After Zhang Rong finished speaking and saw that there was no movement from the soldiers, he turned around and took three heads from the hands of the soldiers behind him. They were Zhang Guozheng, Zhang Chengde and Ying Wenli. Zhang Rong grabbed the heads of the heads and raised them high, shouting: "

The main criminal’s head is here, do you want to disobey?”

Half of these one hundred people are Zhang Rong's military friends. In addition, Zhang Rong had already finished communicating with several leaders last night, so as soon as Zhang Rong finished speaking, several leaders among the one hundred servants took the lead to kneel down.

He shouted: "I will obey the commander-in-chief's military order and pay my respects to Mr. Zhang from Qianhu!"

Other servants who were close friends with Zhang Rong all knelt down when they saw the leader, and they also knelt down and said they were paying homage to Mr. Qianhu. There were also more than 20 servants who had no friendship with Zhang Rong, but they still resisted after seeing this.

No? After all, giving your life to someone is not selling, so I knelt on the ground and surrendered to Zhang Rong.

In addition to these, there are more than a dozen servants standing there who refuse to kneel down. They are Ying Wenli’s trusted confidants selected from the army in recent years. Now that Ying Wenli is dead, they have no backbone and they are afraid of Zhang Rong’s revenge, so

Standing there not knowing what to do!

Mao Hong, a member of the branch camp who followed Zhang Rong into the city, saw that these 100 people were not prepared to surrender. He frowned and asked, "Do you want to disobey me?" After Mao Hong finished speaking, he stretched out his hand and prepared to draw a knife. The two hundred standard soldiers he brought with him

He was also eager to try and prepare to execute these dozen servants on the spot.

Seeing this situation, Zhang Rong quickly grabbed Mao Hong, and then said to the dozen or so people: "Brothers, Ying Wenli has been brought to justice. My grudge against Ying Wenli has nothing to do with you. As long as you recognize me as your eldest brother, we will

Let’s eat meat together and drink wine together!”

Zhang Rong had already said what he said, so the dozen or so servants got off the slope and knelt down one after another to pay their respects to Mr. Qianhu!

Zhang Rong breathed a sigh of relief when he saw that a tragedy was resolved. He knew that these one hundred servants were the best of the entire Haikou Institute. He would rely on this team of servants if he wanted to make great achievements in the future, so he must not lose too much.

Zhang Rong looked at the servants kneeling on the ground, and then said: "Okay, from now on we are all brothers! Now follow my orders and go to the Qianhu Office to detain all the family members of the prisoners together. If there is any resistance, they will be punished on the spot.

!”

A hundred servants shouted in unison, stood up and rushed into the Qianhu Office they had protected just now, and started grabbing people like crazy!

Now that everyone knew that the Zhang family was in ruins, there was no need to be polite. Things that they didn't dare to take before were taken away easily. The maids who didn't dare to look at them also started to do something. Some of them were brave enough to drag their former friends with them.

The maid in the middle was humiliated on the spot, watching

(This chapter is not finished, please turn the page)

Mao Hong frowned.

Mao Hong looked down on this kind of robbery. Wouldn't it be the same as those bandits and pirates? Mao Hong said to Zhang Rong: "Sir Zhang, this is not good! After all, Qianhu is your yamen, Mr. Zhang.

It’s too detrimental to Tianhe!”

Who knew that Zhang Rong smiled slightly and said: "Master Mao doesn't know something. In the past, he was highly nervous before the battle. Over time, some people even went crazy. In order to relieve this pressure, the army was open to such plunder after the war.

Turn a blind eye, as long as it's not too much and no one will investigate! If Master Mao can't stand it, I'll just ask them to restrain themselves!"

Zhang Rong called a servant next to him and said: "Go and pass the order. It's okay to play with women, but don't touch the female members of the Zhang family. Don't kill anyone! You can also get ten taels of silver per person, even if I reward you.

!”

Mao Hong sighed after hearing what Zhang Rong said and stopped talking. Anyway, this Qianhufu belongs to you, you can do whatever you want with it!

The Thousand Household House also has the layout of the front office and the back house. Due to the limited area, the Thousand Household House is not large in the first place, so there are not many people in the back house. Zhang Chengde's immediate relatives all live in the manor outside the city. This is just Zhang Chengde's children and wife.

If they don't have a place, they naturally don't have many maids and servants to serve them.

After half an hour, Zhang Rong saw that his servants were no longer making a fuss, so he issued an order again, asking them to collect the collected property and imprison the captured family members together. As for the ungraded books in the yamen in front of them,

Yes, Zhang Rong doesn't want to touch them for the time being. After all, they have to control the entire health center. It won't be too late to replace them after his own people are familiar with the business.

Zhang Rong couldn't move those desk clerks, but he couldn't move those maids. There were more than ten maids who were insulted by his servants. Zhang Rong would not continue to retain these people, so he rewarded these maids with a wave of his hand.

His cronies and the remaining older servants were all captured and prepared to be bought as slaves.

The commotion lasted for more than an hour before Zhang Rongcai sent someone out to ask Mao Jiao and Zhao Mengguan to come in. By the time these two brought the high-ranking officials from the Qianhu Office back into the Qianhu Office, Zhang Rong had already completely controlled the Qianhu Office.

Even if the officials at the household office are dissatisfied, they cannot act at this time.

Mao Jiao looked around and nodded: "Yes, Zhang Rong, you did a good job. Where are the property of the prisoner's family?"

This was the main reason why Mao Jiao came. Zhang Rong quickly took Mao Jiao and Zhao Mengguan to the backyard. In an empty house, there were some gold and silver treasures, famous people's calligraphy and paintings, etc. These properties were piled up according to the standards of an ordinary wealthy household.

It's an astronomical figure, but the Zhang family's accumulation of more than two hundred years is far more than that. After reading it, Mao Jiao frowned and asked: "Zhang Rong, is that all?"

Zhang Rong nodded quickly: "Go back to the commander-in-chief and found these in the mansion! Brother Mao Hong was here the whole time, the commander-in-chief can ask him!"

Mao Jiao turned around and looked at Mao Hong, who nodded, proving that what Zhang Rong said was indeed true. Mao Jiao was in trouble now. Although the property in front of him was worth 18,000 taels of silver, it was not the same as the Zhang family's property.

It is obviously inconsistent. If nothing else, the Zhang family used their identity as a Haikou household to engage in illegal shipping and made far more money than this amount. Could it be that the Zhang family has a secret place to hide money?

"Zhang Rong, go and bring Zhang Chengde's wife. I'll ask him if Zhang Chengde still has any money that he hasn't handed over!"
