When Han Zhen stepped into the back house, Zhang He had already cleaned up.
"good!"
Han Zhen looked satisfied and praised.
Part of the reason why he sent Zhang He to the backyard was to gain experience.
Judging from the results, Zhang He did not disappoint him.
He kills decisively without the kindness of a woman.
No one from the Xu family can stay tonight. Once someone escapes, his plan with Changzhi County may be exposed.
By that time, not only would Changzhi County be in big trouble, but his plan to attack Songshanling would also fail, and there would even be a risk of being surrounded and suppressed by the Zhenhai Navy.
Suddenly, Han Zhen caught a glimpse of two soldiers squatting in the corner, their hands seemed to be tied behind their backs.
So he asked, "What did they commit?"
Hearing this, Zhang He quickly replied: "Village chief, these two were bullying women and I caught them."
"We are not bullying others. We are the daughter of the King."
One of them raised his head and cried out.
Han Zhen immediately understood what happened and said coldly: "Then Wang Yuanwai once bullied you and others. I know you have resentment in your hearts. But killing people is just a nod. If you want revenge, just kill them with one knife. Why insult them?" "
The two people knew they were in the wrong and lowered their heads silently.
"You two violated military orders and received twenty sticks."
Han Zhen ordered Zhang He: "Untie them first, and then punish them when they get back."
"yes!"
Zhang He stepped forward and untied the rope.
Han Zhen asked: "Where is the mistress of the Xu family?"
"I don't know who the mistress of the Xu family is, but there was a woman who said she wanted to trade something for her life. I didn't know whether it was true or not, so I tied her up and waited for the village chief to deal with her." Zhang He replied.
In exchange for a life?
Han Zhen sneered and walked into the main room.
In the room, Mrs. Zheng, who was wearing lingerie, had her hands and feet tied up, and she was sitting awkwardly on a round stool.
After all, she was a woman who suffered a sudden disaster in her family. She was in a state of confusion and looked panicked.
Seeing someone coming in, Mrs. Zheng looked him up and down, frowned and said, "Are you Han Er?"
Han Zhen smiled slightly: "Mrs. Zheng has good eyesight."
Mrs. Zheng's heart suddenly skipped a beat, then she thought of something, and sneered: "I know, it was Chang Yukun who let you into the city. It's a good plan to kill someone with a borrowed knife, and then embezzle the Xu family's property. No wonder he was asked to write a letter a few days ago. In the state capital, he uncharacteristically refused.”
"He is quite a smart man."
A trace of surprise flashed in Han Zhen's eyes. He didn't expect that the mistress of the Xu family was so thoughtful and courageous.
In this situation, this level can still be thought of.
But since he is a smart person, he cannot stay.
Holding the Pu Dao, Han Zhen took a step forward.
Seeing this scene, Mrs. Zheng turned pale and pretended to be calm: "Han Er, I can give you all the property of the Xu family. I also have a secret, which I can also give to you together. I just ask you to spare my life."
"Since it's a secret, don't say anything about it, just take it down below."
After saying that, the sword flashed.
A cloud of blood flew up and splashed on the carved screen.
After killing Mrs. Zheng, Han Zhen turned around and left the room. At this moment, there was a cry of murder coming from the front yard.
Everyone was startled, thinking that officers and soldiers were coming to kill him, and subconsciously looked at Han Zhen.
But she saw that his expression was as usual and he said calmly: "Don't panic, it's just the Zheng family's nursing home. I'll be back as soon as I go. You wait and find the warehouse quickly."
Upon hearing these three words, all the soldiers' eyes suddenly lit up, including Zhang He.
You know, Han Zhen had promised before that 50% of the captured items would be given as a reward.
The Xu family is the largest family in Linzi County. After generations of accumulation, the family fortune must be extremely rich.
Even if more than thirty people were divided, I'm afraid there would still be a lot.
For a moment, the soldiers dispersed, looking for the warehouse.
…
He quickly came to the front yard and saw that Wang Wu and others had retreated to the Chuihua Gate.
The group of guards who were guarding the hospital were so large that they were shouting and killing each other. They looked very intimidating.
But if you look closely, you will find that no one dares to step forward and fight. Instead, they keep a subtle distance and keep waving the sword.
But it’s understandable. After all, the monthly salary is only two to three hundred cents, so why are you playing with your life?
Even so, relying on the large number of people, they still forced Wang Wu and others to retreat continuously.
"Don't retreat, come back with me!"
Han Zhen shouted loudly.
Hearing his voice, Wang Wu and others paused instantly, roaring and rushing forward as if they had been given a shot of blood.
More than twenty servants and guards were frightened by the momentum of Wang Wu and others, and they all retreated.
The nurse in the front row stepped back, but the people in the back row were a moment slower.
Suddenly, more than 20 people collided with each other, and the scene was extremely chaotic.
Some timid servants even threw away their sticks and ran away with oil on their soles.
Han Zhen swung his sword into the crowd and quickly eliminated the group of servants guarding the hospital.
Seeing a few timid servants running away, Wang Wu gasped and asked, "Do you want to chase them?"
"No, someone will help us finish it."
Han Zhen waved his hand and ordered: "Continue to guard the side door."
After that, he turned around and returned to the backyard.
As soon as he stepped into the backyard, Zhang He came up to him with excitement on his face: "The warehouse has been found!"
"Let's go and have a look!"
Han Zhen looked delighted.
Stepping into the warehouse, you will see baskets of bright yellow copper coins and bolts of silk and satin.
Zhang He had just entered the warehouse, but when he saw this scene again, he still couldn't help but sigh: "They really are rich!"
"This is the first time in my life that I have seen so much money."
"What a sin, these silks and satins are all moldy."
"How much does it cost?"
The soldiers who followed him let out bursts of exclamations.
The most money they have ever seen in their lives may be the monthly salary of 500 yuan.
Looking around, the smile on Han Zhen's face gradually faded and he frowned.
Seeing this, Zhang He asked in confusion: "What happened to the village chief?"
He couldn't understand why the village chief was unhappy after so much money had been seized.
"The total amount of these copper coins and silk satin is only seven or eight thousand guan at most. The Xu family has accumulated wealth for several generations, so it cannot be all they have."
There are thousands of dollars in free money in the Wang Yuan's warehouse. Is it possible that Master Xu, the real person in power in Linzi County, is only slightly better than a rural landowner?
It doesn't make sense.
Thinking of this, Han Zhen said: "There must be other hidden warehouses. Find them quickly."
They were pressed for time and could not stay in the county for too long.
"yes!"
Zhang He responded and led the soldiers out of the warehouse in a hurry.
Han Zhen also joined in. He walked quickly into the main room in the backyard and kept tapping the floor with a wooden pole.
The Xu family residence maintains the fresh and elegant style that was popular in the Northern Song Dynasty. It is not as majestic as the Tang Dynasty, so it is not easy to set up darkrooms, and the hidden warehouses are most likely to be built underground.
Moreover, since it is a secret room for storing precious treasures, it will definitely not be set up in the front yard. Firstly, it will be inconvenient to access, and secondly, the front yard will be crowded with people, and sooner or later the servants will find it.
Han Zhen was certain that the small warehouse was definitely built in the back house.
It took him a full quarter of an hour to knock on the entire floor of the main house, even the slightly thicker walls.
However, nothing was found.
"I found it, I found it!"
At this time, a shout of surprise came from outside the house.
