Although the second wife is greedy for the Wang family's money, she does not fully use her daughter, and she still likes her a little. This can be seen from the fact that they gave her daughter a dowry of 10,000 taels. Some families who fully use their daughters will only They accompanied the items sent by the man, and then completely accepted the bride price in the betrothal gift. Unlike them, they also took 10,000 taels for the dowry.
They still loved their daughter a little bit. Seeing that something happened to the Wang family, they were naturally anxious and thought about how to get their daughter out.
But the Ye family is not a very energetic person to begin with, let alone the second eldest brother of the Ye family. Now the Wang family's matter has reached the level of a three-division meeting. How can an ordinary royal merchant family of the Ye family handle it? When the second-fang of the Ye family approached the first-fang and asked the first-fang, who had inherited the position of royal merchant and had some energy, to help, Ye's father and mother naturally refused.
Father Ye said: "It's not that we won't help you, but that the Ministry of Punishment, Dali Temple, the Yamen of the capital, and the three departments will interrogate. How can I, a small imperial businessman, intervene? How can I have the energy to help you recruit people? Look at them There are so many women in the natal family, which family has the ability to fish their daughter out of the Wang family? The Third Division ordered the guard, who can escape. If I ask for information, it's almost the same. "
The second house was naturally unhappy when he saw that the first house was unwilling to help, but what the first house said was true. Now the third division sent people to surround the Wang family like iron barrels, and no one could escape, so they could only give it up angrily.
The reason why they are so tight is normal, because those officers and soldiers all know that the Wang family is rich and powerful. When they came, their superiors said that they could not let anyone from the Wang family escape, because if one escaped, they might take the Wang family's possessions with them. The banknotes took away the Wang family's property. When the time came, one person would be missing, resulting in a lot of missing money. They had to ask questions and let them fill in the money themselves.
How could they have the money to fill such a hole, so of course they kept on guarding it honestly. Besides, the boss said that if the task was completed well, there would definitely be more rewards. After all, the Wang family was rich, and they had plundered the Wang family, so they had enough money to give them rewards. As soon as these words came out, all the officers and soldiers surrounding them showed their sincerity. After all, if you let someone go, you would be punished. If you successfully completed the task, you would be rewarded. Everyone naturally tried their best, so that no one from the Wang family could escape.
Yes, the Wang family saw that the situation was not good and originally wanted to secretly run away with the banknotes. After all, as long as they ran away and had so much money, they could still live a good life in the future.
As a result, the officers and soldiers took a very strict look at the Wang family. They checked the population of the Wang family as soon as they arrived. From top to bottom, the number was extremely clear. It was obvious that the court had already done a thorough investigation and knew how many people there were in the Wang family.
Then it will be checked every morning and evening. If there is any shortage, it will be traced so that no one can escape.
Only Wang Xi was extremely anxious when he heard the news.
It turns out that the Wang family is not without a way to escape. As a modern man, Wang Xi knows that he must leave a way out for himself, so the Wang family has a way out.
As early as when he became rich and built this manor, he asked workers to dig a tunnel. The entrance of the tunnel was very secret and only he knew about it. In order to keep the tunnel safe, he would go in and out of the tunnel from time to time, so this tunnel is currently Can be used normally.
Not only is it in normal use, but it also has supplies hidden underground. If you are afraid that the imperial court will attack you, you can hide underground if the wind outside is tight. When the wind outside calms down, it will not be too late to escape.
It's a pity that he had all the escape routes open, but he didn't expect that he would suddenly fall, causing others to not know about this tunnel, and no one in the Wang family could escape.
Because he couldn't express it, he could only act anxiously.
In fact, even if he tells this secret, it will most likely be leaked and it will be useless, because once more than one person knows about this kind of thing, it will be easily leaked, because no matter which son he tells, the other party will have it. You may tell your wife and children, but as long as a third person knows it, it will easily spread to countless people.
Therefore, Wang Xi's escape route may only be used by himself. Once others know about it, everyone will know about it. I'm afraid that the court will eventually find out, and even he won't be able to use it.
The second bedroom saw that the eldest brother could not help. He remembered that the eldest brother had vaguely reminded them before that his daughter should leave the Wang family, and immediately asked suspiciously: "Did the eldest brother remind them before that they received any news?"
Naturally, Ye's father couldn't say that it was because of Linlang's dream. He only said at the moment: "I received the news at that time. I heard that the Wang family reported each other, so I knew something bad was going to happen. You also know what the Wang family did. If you continue to report each other, the court Sooner or later they will be dealt with, so I feel that something is wrong with the Wang family’s situation and want my niece to come back.”
Father Ye's words were not false. At that time, he saw that Wang Xi had a stroke, so he collected information about the Wang family. Finally, he heard that the Wang family was fiercely fighting within the family and had developed to the point of reporting each other. He knew what his daughter said, that the Wang family would raid their homes in the future. It should be true.
Judging from the ending, Ye's father made such a judgment, and it would not be too abrupt if he reminded the second room.
Sure enough, after he said this, the second room no longer had any doubts. The main reason was that the Ye family's energy was limited, and the second room did not believe that the first room could receive news from the senior officials of the court before the incident happened.
I can only regret that I didn't listen to Father Ye at that time. If I had known that the Wang family would be in trouble, I should have let my daughter reconcile with that Prince No. 100. When my daughter comes back, even if she doesn't marry as well as the Prince No. 100, It would be better than being unlucky with the Wang family now.
But he said that because Wang's family was large and he had committed many crimes, the trial took a long time. It had already been a month since all the trials were completed.
The case was finally concluded, and the verdict submitted to the emperor by the three divisions was that most of them had committed crimes, and those who had the judge could sentence them as they should, while the rest had their homes confiscated and were exiled.
——In fact, this was set by the emperor's close ministers. When the emperor saw such a verdict, he naturally agreed.
The emperor only let Wang Xi's family be confiscated and exiled, instead of beheading the whole family. It was because the emperor was kind. Otherwise, there wouldn't be enough heads to chop off the things the Wang family had done, and they would only deal with a few of them who had committed crimes.
The main crime committed by the Wang family was to rob civilian girls - after the fall of the Wang family, those were concubines or wives who were really forced into the palace by the Wang family, as well as some who saw the situation in a bad light and pretended to be robbed. When the concubines or wives who were freed from the crime were asked by the third minister whether they had been forced into the palace, they accused the Wang family of taking advantage of the family's power to rob civilian girls. If they did not give them, they would target them.
If they don't give it, they will be targeted by the Wang family. It's not that they framed the Wang family, because there is a case, because there are also people outside who have complained about this matter.
In the past, some people who did not want to give their daughters to Wang Xi or his sons as concubines were targeted by the Wang family for doing business. Now they all came forward to accuse them.
