From a son-in-law to a favorite of the empress

Chapter 362

Yun's house, dining room.

The old man of the Yun family frowned, put down his chopsticks, and waved his hand, saying, "Today's dishes are a bit spicy. Did you change the chef in the kitchen?"

A woman whispered, "Master, no, it's just that a condiment called chili has been introduced from the south recently, which is quite spicy. Today is a good time to try it."

Old man Yun nodded and said, "Don't use it in the future. This spicy food is only liked by the young people in the family. An old man like me would rather decline."

As soon as he finished speaking, the voice of the housekeeper outside came: "Master, the master of the Fu family and others are here to visit. They have been arranged to the side hall now."

Old man Yun stood up and sighed, "A group of timid mice, I really don't know what they are afraid of!"

He strode out and arrived at the side hall. A group of old people stood up and saluted.

Old Master Yun waved his hand and said, "Okay, sit down. You are all old. Why do you have to be so polite? What happened again?"

An old man laughed and said, "Master Yun, it's not that the brothers are nosy, but I'm unsure. When will this land survey be over?"

Old Master Yun said, "It's not me who is in office. Who knows when it will be over? Just don't let them measure it. How can they have more tricks than us? That Deng is just a fool. Why should we be afraid of him!"

Master Fu whispered, "Master, Zhou Yuan is back. He arrived yesterday afternoon."

Yun Xiansheng's eyelids twitched subconsciously, and then he said, "Even if he is a super-rank martial artist, he can't control our affairs. What's the point of being good at fighting? We have hundreds of thousands of tenants. How dare he kill the people?"

Master Fu said, "Master Yun may not know much about Zhou Yuan. This man is vicious and murderous. When he was in Shenjing, he killed an official in court. He is a man who doesn't care about his life! "

"If he wants to make trouble for us, I'm afraid it's hard to reason with him."

Yun Xiansheng couldn't help laughing and said, "It's hard to reason with him? I have the red book and iron certificate, and I have the golden medal of immunity from death. How can he be unreasonable with me?"

"My Yun family disagrees with the land survey. What can he use to convince you?"

"Go back. Zhou Yuan is nothing to be afraid of. He is just a character with no foundation. He has only been an official for a few days. You are so scared."

Seeing that everyone looked embarrassed, Yun Xiansheng sighed and said, "Forget it, don't you just want a down-to-earth word from me? Okay! You manage the industry well, and let me deal with Zhou Yuan. That's all right!"

Everyone was relieved, bowed down, and praised.

"Old Master Yun is still so heroic!"

"Heroes never grow old! With the words of the old master, we feel relieved."

As the group left after greeting each other, Yun Xiansheng couldn't help but curse inwardly: "A bunch of useless trash."

He looked strange, touched his stomach, and felt a burning pain.

What kind of crap chili is that? Is that something that old people can eat?

He ran into the house and sat on the porcelain jar to poop.

Yun Xiansheng took a comfortable breath.

He pulled up his pants and stood up, frowning, and felt a stomachache again.

Oh no! I can't poop, and it hurts so much!

Yun Xiansheng was so angry that he picked up a gilded dragon staff from the antique shelf and hit the maid next to him fiercely.

"Ah!"

The maid's arm was broken and she shrank to the ground on the spot.

"You dare to hide!"

Yun Xiansheng beat the girl fiercely, making crackling sounds, until he ran out of strength, then threw the dragon stick aside and sat on the chair gasping for breath.

Turning his head, he saw the maid covered in blood, curled up on the ground, probably dead.

"Come here! Come here!"

Yun Xiansheng roared: "Hurry up and throw this useless thing out, don't dirty my eyes!"

Several servants came in hurriedly, carried the girl's body and left.

...

Outside Kaifeng City, Li He led 500 elite warriors, who had already put on their armor and held their swords, waiting for Zhou Yuan's order.

Zhou Yuan handed the map to Li He and said in a deep voice: "Copy the places marked on it directly. Don't leave anyone out. Fight tigers and flies."

"If you encounter resistance, subdue them on the spot. If they are carrying weapons, kill them on the spot."

Li He clasped his fists and said: "Don't worry, General Jie, we will definitely handle this little thing well!"

Zhou Yuan took a deep breath and said: "Let's go!"

"Let's go! Action!"

Li He drew his knife and led his men directly into the city.

Zhou Yuan followed closely in a carriage, also wanting to see if he would catch any big fish tonight.

They first arrived at a brothel called Cuiminglou. Li He first had people surround Cuiminglou tightly, and then led his men.Go upstairs.

As expected, no one escaped.

When Li He came down, Deng Su also arrived.

"Sir, how do we deal with these people?"

Deng Su's attitude is very humble now, but his words are more concise, decisive and powerful than before.

Zhou Yuan said: "All of them will be detained in the government office, strictly guarded, and interrogated all night. The origins of the brothel women must be investigated in detail!"

"Yes!"

Deng Su immediately took people upstairs to take over the criminals.

Li He clasped his fists and said: "General, there are three people who resisted arrest. They had daggers hidden on their bodies and were killed by us."

Zhou Yuan narrowed his eyes slightly and said coldly: "What do they want to cover up by attacking the officers and soldiers? I will interrogate them personally! Right here!"

He strode in. The hall was full of people kneeling, and there were three bodies in a pool of blood in the far corner.

Zhou Yuan first glanced at the decorations around him, which were luxurious and no less than the capital.

These brothel girls are all very beautiful, and their quality is higher than that of Shenjing. It is hard to imagine that the most beautiful ones among them would fall to the level of brothel prostitutes.

Zhou Yuan did not interrogate them at first, but looked at Li Yu'an and said, "Are there any of your people?"

Li Yu'an said, "I don't know. I never care about these things. It's better to ask Chu Feifan."

Chu Feifan didn't come to Kaifeng with him, so it's useless to talk.

Zhou Yuan glanced around and said in a deep voice, "Who is the boss? Come and talk!"

A fat man quickly crawled over and laughed dryly, "Sir, I am the boss of Cuiminglou. I don't know what crime we have committed to make you so angry!"

Zhou Yuan said, "Let me ask you, where did you find these brothel girls?"

The fat man quickly said, "They are all refugees. Their parents sold them to us. All the indentures are still there. If you don't believe me, ask these girls!"

A group of girls also spoke up.

"General, we came here voluntarily."

"How can we survive outside in this world? General, please be merciful and let us continue to eat."

"If you want to be happy, we sisters don't need to pay."

Zhou Yuan said with a gloomy face.

At this moment, Dong Yu hurriedly ran in from outside and said in a deep voice: "General, there are indeed movements in other brothels. People are starting to withdraw and some brothels are turning off the lights."

"In the four streets of Wanhuafang, all the major brothels have closed down one after another."

Zhou Yuan sneered: "It's too late to hide at this time. Liu Fang brought two thousand people and surrounded the entire Wanhuafang."

"No one can sleep tonight unless the truth is found out!"

While Zhou Yuan was speaking, the two thousand elite soldiers led by Liu Fang began to narrow the encirclement. Soldiers ran out of the darkness one by one, roaring angrily.

"Stop! Don't go!"

"Those who resist will be killed without mercy!"

Killers came out from all the exits of Wanhuafang, escorting these patrons away.

However, they obviously didn't expect that the law enforcers this time were not the constables, but the soldiers of the Fifth Army Camp.

Anyone who resisted was beheaded on the spot.

The long street was splattered with blood, and dozens of corpses were lying on the ground. These gang members were scared and dared not come out.
