Zhang Yong's worries are not unfounded, but the inference that he secretly sent Jin Yiwei to follow Yan Juren. I am afraid that they are unwilling to give up. Although they are preparing to evacuate from Songjiang, they are probably planning to cause trouble before leaving. If
In the name of Zhao Xianzhong, if something happens, it will be implicated in the court, and Mr. Li Ge may be in trouble.
In the eyes of uninformed people, Mr. Li Ge was so "arrogant" that his disciples even dared to murder imperial envoys. No matter whether the emperor felt resentful or not, this attempt to alienate the monarch and his ministers was destructive. If the emperor dealt with Mr. Li Ge because of this, he would inevitably feel angry.
If the emperor does not deal with Mr. Li Ge, it will affect the emperor's authority and credibility.
As for the Shen family that triggered the continuation of the series, it is inevitable that they will be angered by both parties and regarded as the source of trouble.
Wang Shouren shook his head and said: "If an 'accident' happens to me when I go out, it may just be an 'accident'. Only if I catch him at the Yamen is there no defense."
The mantis stalks the cicada and the oriole follows behind. Yan Juren is not convinced and lets the Shen family escape. He wants to make some more troubles before leaving Songjiang, but he doesn't expect the "cicada" in his eyes to be ready and waiting for him.
This prey is caught in the net.

The main room of the small courtyard in the back street of the magistrate's Yamen.
Gang Xian bowed and replied, telling the story of the return home of the three detained sons of the Shen family. Because they had been ordered by Mrs. Zhang, the gang had been wandering around Shenjiafang all afternoon, staring at the movements in the four rooms, and the focus was naturally on Shen Jin.
Because he was tailed by Shen Jin, Bang Xian witnessed Shen Jin waiting for others outside the magistrate's office, and Shen Li taking the three sons of the Shen family home.
"The three people who were arrested before, Shen Jun from the eldest room broke his leg and became a cripple, Shen Qi from the fifth room broke his right arm and lost half of his life. He can't stand still. There is also the former manager.
Shen Ling, the third roommate of the shop, was a transparent and intelligent person. She was always kind to us when she met her. She was not one of those people with eyes on the top of her head. However, she lost her life in vain, leaving a little widow holding her child and looking at it.
It's pitiful to be alive." Bang Xian said, with a look of sadness on his face, and a hint of "things hurt their own kind".
With the same surname of Shen, the five powerful clan members all survived, but only the three who had no power to rely on lost their lives. This power is a talisman. If you have no power, it is better to avoid the government.
Mrs. Zhang was dumbfounded and said hesitantly: "This...isn't it true that we haven't been convicted yet? How come a few members of the Shen family are dead and disabled?"
Zhang was resentful of the Shen family and wanted to take revenge on the fourth family, but she also knew that the task assigned by the prince was to subdue the Shen family. It would be more in the prince's interest to have both people and money. She took the initiative to invite her, but
He wanted to take the opportunity to take revenge on the fourth room of the Shen family and avenge his dead sister.
It turns out that Zhang Zhang is none other than the fourth sister Zhang who lived temporarily in the fourth room of the Shen family in the early years.
At that time, Shen Rui had not yet become a successor and returned to the fourth room from Xilin Temple after the period of filial piety. The fourth sister was only fifteen years old at the time and was taken into the fourth room by Zhang Lao'an together with her 17-year-old sister Zhang Sanjieer.
Zhang Laoan wanted to promote her mother's family, let her third sister be Shen Jin's concubine, and make her fourth sister marry her most hated grandson Shen Rui, but she was opposed by Shen Yuan, who wanted to make two good marriages with his son.
Third Sister Zhang is weak-tempered and self-pitying, but she accepts her fate; Fourth Sister Zhang is unwilling to settle down and is unwilling to be sent back to the declining Zhang family to be married off by her elders in exchange for gifts, so she takes the initiative to seduce Shen Yuan, on the condition that she becomes Shen Yuan's concubine.
He persuaded Shen Yuan to adopt his sister as his adopted daughter and moved their household registration records out of the Zhang family.
At that time, Shen Yuan was forty-five years old, and the fourth sister Zhang was fifteen years old. It was true that the pear blossom always overwhelmed the begonia. If it was just an ordinary love affair, it turned out that the fourth sister in this picture was Shen Yuan's cousin, which was related to ethics.
This uncle-nephew affair was discovered by Shen Yuan's concubine and Shen Jin's biological mother, Zheng. In order to preserve the reputation of Sifang and not implicate Shen Jin, Zheng used tricks to deceive Zhang's sister's household registration information, and then transferred it to Zhang's sister. The two sold Yazi to passers-by.
For the fourth brother, Zheng's move was a complete solution to future troubles; for the Zhang sisters, it was a turning point in fate. Although Zheng did not give special instructions, the two sisters were in their prime, pretty and pretty. Naturally, he knew where to sell it for a high price. After inquiring about the relationship between the two people and the Shen family, he knew that they were cousins of the Shen family. He was afraid that the Shen family would be looking for trouble, so he shipped it directly to Nanchang Mansion, thousands of miles away, and found a flower house to sell it.
The two poor sisters were also from Xiaojiabiyu, but because of their misbehavior, they fell into the world.
Fourth sister Zhang had a fierce and romantic temperament. Even if she was living in the mud and in an embarrassing situation, she would still think about how to turn around and take revenge on the Shen family. However, third sister Zhang had a temperament as delicate as a delicate flower. She could not bear to be trampled on and was depressed. She died in less than three months.
Originally, there were still sisters who depended on each other, but the fourth sister Zhang was the only one left. Her resentment and guilt doubled, and her desire to join the camp became more and more intense. By chance, she met Prince Ning who came to have a drink in disguise, and the fourth sister Zhang used all her strength to hug Prince Ning's lap.
Although she is not a virgin, she is lucky because Fourth Sister Zhang is smart and discerning. In order to recruit people for Prince Ning, she is also free to find out information. She has gained some favor from Prince Ning over and over again. Prince Ning also said that he would take Fourth Sister Zhang into the palace. , Fourth Sister Zhang just listened. With her family background, if she enters the palace, she will die, and it is better to toss around freely outside.
Originally, the Shen family was in a lawsuit, and Prince Ning's plan was half successful. The remaining half was waiting for the Shen family to fall into a quagmire, and the palace secretly helped and showed kindness.
However, before the trial of the current lawsuit has officially begun, several children of the Shen family have died or become disabled. This is not in line with the prince's previous plan.
Fourth Sister Zhang couldn't sit still, felt a little uneasy, and fell into deep thought.
The assistant has continued to trace Shen Jin's whereabouts: "Shen Jin first went to the clan house with Da Shen Zhuangyuan and others, and then sent Shen Qi and her son back to the fifth room. After more than half an hour, Shen Rui also went to the fifth room. Then the fifth room of the Shen family started to hold funerals, and when the villain left, many members of the Shen family had already gone to pay their respects."
Fourth Sister Zhang was surprised and said: "Another one died? Is Shen Qi gone now?"
Bang Xian shook his head and said: "I was also shocked, and after quietly asking around, I found out that the person who died was not Shen Qi, but the fifth-fang master."
Fourth Sister Zhang had lived in the fourth room of the Shen family. Although she had never met the old man in the fifth room, she knew that the old man next door was a sick man who had been bedridden all year round. After hearing this news of loss, she didn't know whether to rejoice in the misfortune or lament the impermanence.
It was completely dark outside, and Fourth Sister Zhang felt inexplicably frightened. Can the prince's bargaining chip really succeed? What happened to Yan Juren? Did he let the prefect's Yamen torture the Shen family, or was it simply his own initiative that caused the accident?
There was no one else in the room, so Bang Xian couldn't help but raise his head and quietly glance at Fourth Sister Zhang. He felt that this lady had absorbed her usual flirtatious attitude, and her well-behaved and slightly frowning expression was a bit cute.
Fourth Sister Zhang came to her senses and realized that she would have scolded Bang Xian for her little behavior, but now she was not in the mood, so she waved her hand and sent Bang Xian away.
There was a bang outside and it was already time to watch.
Sitting in front of the mirror, Fourth Sister Zhang was still uneasy, eager to know what was going on at the prefect's Yamen. But Yan Juren could not come, and she had nowhere to go to get the news.
Fourth Sister Zhang pondered for a moment, touched her eyelids, and went out to call the old man who was guarding the door. He sent him to the prefect's Yamen to find Yan Juren, with the excuse that she was not feeling well.
The old man bowed and agreed, carrying a lantern and went to the magistrate's Yamen to look for someone.
Fourth Sister Zhang stood in the corridor. The curtain of the wing opened, and an old woman in her fifties came out. With a sullen face, she said with a bit of disapproval: "Girl, please don't think that the old woman is too verbose. You should be more responsible. After all,
Yes...if the master starts to care about me, the girl will also have to bear the responsibility."
Fourth Sister Zhang chuckled and said: "I know my mother loves my family, but which tablet is it? I will care about this, and I won't accept my family. To be honest, I sometimes like to listen to my slave talk about the service."
It’s other people’s dirty talk.”
This old nanny is an old member of Prince Ning's palace. She comes from a palace background and follows the rules. She cannot see Fourth Sister Zhang's frivolity and debauchery. She may have tried to persuade her, but it didn't work at all. She could only sigh and return to the wing. She couldn't see what her heart was doing.
net.
Seeing that the old woman saw the side room, Fourth Sister Zhang suppressed the smile on her face, picked up the dark cloak that had been left behind the house, wrapped it around herself, and tiptoed out of the yard, hurried away.
Outside the third or fifth house, two dog barks were heard, and calm returned again.
Two quarters of an hour later, along with the sound of rapid footsteps at the entrance of the alley, the barking of dogs started again.
The old woman in the wing noticed something was going on outside, so she came out to check, and saw the door being kicked open with a "clack", and several guards in gilded uniforms carrying lanterns poured in.
"Where are the Zhang family members?" the leader asked.
The old grandma had a frightened look on her face and her body was trembling. She looked like she was frightened. She covered her mouth and didn't know how to reply.
The guards in uniforms were waiting impatiently and looked through each room. The lights were on in the senior room, but there was no one inside. The east wing, which had no lights, and the west wing where the old nanny had just been, were all searched.
No one was found.
"Run away now?" The leader frowned, pointed at the old woman and said: "Catch this old woman and go back for torture. Where can a little widow run away in the middle of the night?"
After hearing this, two royal guards came over to drag the old woman away.
But the old grandma couldn't stand up straight, and she slipped straight down. One of the guards in Jinyi was impatient and kicked her and said: "Follow me honestly, do you want me to help you walk?"
The old grandma did not say a word, and her body suddenly smelled of feces and urine.
The two guards were so disgusted that they let go and threw the old woman to the ground.
The old grandma didn't say a word and fell straight to the side.
"Are you pretending to be dead? What a bad luck!" Yijin Yiwei complained.
The other person noticed something was wrong and exclaimed: "Blood! This old woman is bleeding!"
After hearing the words, everyone held up lanterns and came forward to illuminate the situation. They saw the old woman lying on the ground with her eyes wide open, her lips black, and her orifices bleeding. It turned out that she was not incontinent due to fear, but was incontinent after being poisoned.
Xiao Qi, who was ordered to arrest someone, had a dark complexion. He knelt down and reached out his hand to poke under the old woman's nose. The heat on his face had not dissipated, but he could no longer detect his breath.

At the back door of the fourth room of the Shen family, a dark figure squatted motionless.
The sound of monks and Taoists chanting sutras could be heard next door. The night wind blew and the shadows of the trees swayed, adding to the eerie feeling.
There was the sound of clappers in the distance, it was midnight...
