The next day.

The colleagues at the duty station found that there were fewer people and thought that their colleagues were ill, so they asked them to go to Master Wei's house to greet him.

As a result, I learned that Master Wei did not return overnight.

Everyone didn't panic at first, thinking that Chief Wei had some outdoor room.

He only sent people to ask around and determine his location.

However, after a morning of inquiry, he found that he had disappeared in the city bizarrely.

At this time, someone remembered the rumors yesterday.

"Master Wei, shouldn't this..."

The man swallowed: "Has he been captured by the Jinyiwei?"

"Otherwise, how could it disappear without name or reason?"

As soon as these words were spoken, all the officials changed their faces.

Could it be that the Jinyiwei has arrived at them and started a secret investigation?

It took so long for them to find the tax bank, so they started directly from the officials who investigated them?

"Haha, Lord Zhang, are you joking?"

"Embroidered Uniform Guard..."

When everyone present said these three words, they felt a little frightened.

An irritable official immediately scolded, "Bah!"

"This group of hawks from the court really dares to attack like this?"

"Is there any other kingly law?"

"Your Majesty wants to deal with us, and you must follow the law."

"Can those Jinyiwei be more powerful than His Majesty's power?"

As soon as these words were said, many people looked around in panic.

Some people snorted, lowering their voices.

"You're not going to die?"

"The Jinyiwei all have the ears of the wind. If they hear it, wouldn't the next target be you?"

The official's scalp was numb as he heard this.

He had his hair hard and his voice was lowered unconsciously.

"This, this won't be heard..."

Just as everyone was guessing.

Master Wei, who was searching for all night, suddenly appeared in front of everyone.

His face was haggard, and his eyes were shining with big blue and black.

When everyone saw him coming back, they quickly surrounded him.

"Master Wei, where did you go last night?"

"Yeah, we all thought you were taken away."

Captured?

When Master Wei heard this, he opened his mouth in panic.

When others saw it, they knew what happened to him.

However, no matter how everyone asked, he refused to speak out what he did last night.

Everyone saw that although he was not in good spirits, he came back intact.

So I didn't ask any more questions.

However, many people felt relieved.

If the Jinyiwei arrested people, they would definitely not be able to come back intact.

When Master Wei returned, he was completely absent-minded.

I can't work today.

He directly sued his boss for one day off and went home.

Just when everyone thought this matter came to an end.

When I went to work the next day, I found that three people were missing.

Now, everyone can no longer sit still.

"Master, something big happened!"

Everyone didn't care about the work at hand and rushed to the prefect's office.

However, this time I just went out, I got news that the three colleagues were released.

But they were all in a bad mood and looked panicked.

No matter how much I ask, I don’t say what happened.

Now, many people were panicked.

Everyone collectively went to the office of the Qingzhou prefect and asked to meet the prefect.

When the Qingzhou prefect arrived in the county, it naturally occupied the county government office as its office.

Zhang Hai, the assistant minister of the Ministry of War, also sat here with him.

A group of officials came to them to complain, both of them were puzzled.

"What's the meaning?"

"Some of your colleagues were taken away for one night, and then the next day, they came back intact?"

"yes!"

An official said anxiously: "It's true."

"Mr. Ji, they all say that the city is full of Jinyiwei now."

"They were all captured by the Jinyiwei."

"But no matter how we ask, they didn't say it."

"What if... what if... we are arrested at once?"

Now is the time to investigate the tax bank, and I really can't tell the truth to investigate those who have disappeared all night and come back smoothly.

After asking, Master Ji, the prefect of Qingzhou, confirmed that those people were back intact. He looked at Zhang Hai hesitantly.

Today, Wang Shouren was also in the county office to discuss the scope of the search with them.

He whispered to Zhang Hai: "Sir, maybe these people have gone to drink wine at night."

"The thing the tax bank is pursuing now is important. They are drunk and unable to pay the value in time."

"So I dare not say it clearly."

Although he suppressed the sound, the prefect Ji, who was next to him, also heard it.

After hearing this, I always feel that this is indeed the case.

Zhang Hai suddenly realized and nodded, "What you said is indeed possible."

Turning his head and saying to the panicked officials, "Now the tax bank is important to investigate the case. Since all the people arrested are fine, there is no need to worry."

"Maybe those people have a hidden secret."

"I will discuss this matter again, and I will deal with the tax silver theft case first!"

Zhang Hai, who has the most renowned position, said that the Qingzhou prefect naturally had no objection.

He waved his hand and asked everyone to retreat first.

Everyone did not receive the attention of the prefect. Some people thought it was nothing, but some people were careful.

That night.

In front of a mansion in the city.

In the twilight, several guests were welcomed.

Dongdongdongdongdong...

The dull knock on the door sounded three times.

Soon someone opened the door from inside.

"how?"
