This sudden change shocked everyone.
The government officials also quickly drew their swords and stood ready.
Although Qi Yu was a little shocked, he was not worried about safety. Yes, the security at the scene is very meticulous. Even if there is some small disturbance, they will not be able to cause any big trouble.
Look at the people first.
However, they saw that they were a group of country people dressed as farmers. After running for a certain distance, they all fell to the ground, shouting that they were wronged and shouting that they wanted to see Mr. Qi Yuqi.
What is all this mess?
If you want to complain, you should go to Mr. Yu. Why do you go to Mr. Qi?
However, everyone secretly breathed a sigh of relief. Since it was not a bad person disturbing the situation, there would be no danger.
Qi Yu couldn't help but feel confused when he saw it.
The visitors were none other than members of the Qi family, headed by Qi Zhuchang, from their hometown of Taohua Village.
Strange, what are they doing here? Are you still yelling at yourself?
Weird!
But it doesn’t matter, just ask them and they’ll know?
Qi Yu turned his head and told Master Yu not to act rashly, he would handle the matter himself. If it doesn't work, it's not too late to trouble the Lord.
Yu Hai thought for a while and nodded.
Then, Qi Yu left the table, stopped a few feet away from Qi Zhuchang, and then stood still.
Not only Qi Yu, but also all the relatives felt weird when they saw this scene. Zhou even frowned, as if he didn't know what to do.
Liu Quan did not panic. She quickly whispered to her mother-in-law, telling her not to interfere or interrupt, and let her husband handle it alone.
Yes, he is the head of the family.
However, even though Liu Quan said this, she did not do so. She stood up in a hurry, walked away from the table, walked over with her skirt in hand, and stood half way behind Qi Yu.
She felt a little uneasy, fearing that these people would make things difficult for her husband.
…
As for Qi Yu, he stood there quietly without speaking. His face was neither happy nor worried, and no one could see his mood swings.
Qi Yu was waiting for them to speak first.
Since these people came from afar and pretended to beg, something big must have happened.
Why should I take the initiative?
It’s cold...
The atmosphere was a bit stiff and felt weird.
Qi Zhuchang was quite annoyed. He thought that Qi Dalang would step forward to help him, but unexpectedly, he remained still and silent. He just knelt down like this?
Little did he know that Qi Yu had already seen through his hypocrisy and did it on purpose.
Qi Zhuchang couldn't bear it anymore, so he had to put on a sad face and said: "Qi Yuxian grandson, I am here..."
However, Qi Yu directly interrupted him and said coldly: "Hold on! Qi Weng's title is wrong, please correct it. I say... you'd better get up and speak. Your kneeling just now is your right." Consider this your confession."
"you……"
"Haha, I still have the same attitude as before. No matter in the past or now, any behavior that hurts my family in the slightest is unforgivable to me!"
Not good...
He still remembers the past!
Qi Zhuchang stood up awkwardly, and then said: "We are all a family, why are we in such a quarrel?"
Qi Yu's face hardened and he said coldly: "The people who wanted to kill my family back then were members of the same family, weren't they?"
"this……"
Qi Yu changed his tone and said: "If I remember correctly, when I returned to my hometown to move the tomb, you once told me that after walking out of the threshold of the ancestral temple, it would be difficult to go back. . Can I understand this sentence to mean that there is no relationship between us anymore? "
Qi Zhuchang pretended to remember, shook his head and said, "I don't remember saying such a thing."
Um?
Actually going back on your word?
It seems that he is still dishonest!
Qi Yu didn't take it seriously and smiled: "The past has passed, and it doesn't make any sense to talk about it again. Tell me, what do I mean?"
Qi Zhuchang blushed in embarrassment and could only say: "It's all Qi Qiuchuan's fault. Alas... Now, all the Qi family members are facing prison, and many of them cannot escape. I sincerely ask you to remember the love of the past. It's my duty to help him..." After saying that, Qi Zhuchang bowed deeply, almost touching the ground.
what's the situation?
Regardless of whether he can save him or not, let's just talk about Qi Qiuchuan, but I haven't heard any news about him for a long time.
Why did it suddenly appear again now?
I still remember that when Mr. Yu was still the magistrate of Lanshan County, he made a public trial judgment on the case of Qi Qiuchuan's family: Qi Qiuchuan and his wife were sentenced to frontier distribution, and his son was sentenced to one and a half years in prison. Not long after, their family was lucky enough to receive a general amnesty when the new emperor ascended the throne, and thus got a chance to be reborn.
Later, when I returned to my hometown to move the grave, I never saw them in Taohua Village. I heard from my neighbor Aunt Zhang that they moved away with their family, and no one knew where they went.
As the saying goes, there must be monsters when things go wrong, and news about people like them is never a good thing.
However, Qi Yu's curiosity was aroused, and he raised his hand to signal Qi Zhuchang to continue speaking.
This kind of gesture made Qi Zhuchang feel ashamed and angry. Shuzi was really too unreasonable.
However, he did not dare to say it.
In his senses, Qi Yu changed, and there was an oppressive aura on his body.
This feeling made the old patriarch extremely uncomfortable, and he bent down without any control. He had to make a compliment and speak in a low-key manner.
Upon hearing this, Qi Yu couldn't help but be startled.
Something really happened.
The Qi family members encountered a sudden disaster!
The general situation is this.
It is said that the newly transferred magistrate of Lanshan County was angrily criticized by Master Yu for building the 'Jinshi Jidi Archway'. After returning to the jurisdiction, he actually went to verify whether Qi Yu had left his clan or not. Have you set up another branch?
Even if you die, you must die clearly!
Thinking about it, it is really rare to have a third prize in the district. This kind of cultural, educational and political achievements are enough for him to brag about for a lifetime. It may even affect his future promotion or not, and everyone will care about it.
As a result, this investigation revealed something unexpected.
Not long ago, the Provincial Inspector General received the order from the Governor and issued a wanted document to all counties and districts within his jurisdiction. The names of the bandits and bandits of the Emperor Worship Cult were all written on them. These people are all serious criminals. .
In terms of nature, this matter has little to do with the imperial court. It is just a routine purge operation within the provincial government to prevent their resurgence.
Unexpectedly, the names of Qi Qiuchuan's family were included in the roster of this document.
Yes, they joined the Cult of Emperor Worship.
This matter had nothing to do with the Qi family. Unexpectedly, the magistrate of Lanshan County suddenly arrived and ordered a thorough investigation of Qi Yu's genealogy. During the investigation, it was unexpectedly discovered that these Qi family members were Qi Yu's family members. A branch of Qiuchuan.
Here comes the problem.
For Qi Qiuchuan's crime of rebellion, according to the law, his clan members must also bear the responsibility of being imprisoned, that is, jailed.
Then, will Qi Yu be implicated?
The answer is: no!
Because he did break away from the Qi family, and there were documents left behind to prove it. In other words, he couldn't bear the blame at all.
Besides, the prisoners in this group are not serious criminals or serious criminals. They can be redeemed with money, which is somewhat similar to the payment of bail in later generations.
However, the Qi family members have no money!
Where did the money go?
Since they were all afraid of building the Great Wall, they sold all their property to redeem their corvee services. In this way, they all returned to the pre-Foundation period overnight.
What they regretted was that the construction of the Great Wall this time was not as scary as the rumors said, and the food and accommodation were so-so.
Alas, if I had known better, I wouldn’t have spent this wasted money!
It's too late to regret it now!
