Chapter 336 The Arrest Begins

Chapter 336

After Zhang Hao saw Xu Jie's letter, he knew that Jiajing was going to start attacking King Jin, so Zhang Hao needed to reply to Xu Jie's letter first, and wrote some evidence on the letter.
After finishing writing, Zhang Hao asked Jin Yiwei's brothers to set off overnight, without any delay, and tried to deliver it to Xu Jie tomorrow morning.
As for the inquiry letter from the Metropolitan Procuratorate, Zhang Hao put it aside first, don’t worry, and return the inquiry letter from the Metropolitan Procuratorate, that is, it is really a war with King Jin, because if the Procuratorate receives Zhang Hao’s reply letter , the impeachment of King Jin will be launched immediately, including the impeachment of Zhang Hao's official impeachment. There is real evidence from the Metropolitan Procuratorate.

Moreover, this evidence was sent by Zhang Hao to the Metropolitan Procuratorate through formal channels. This cannot be faked, unless Zhang Hao doesn't even want this Lord Hou anymore!

"Okay, it's time to start!" Zhang Hao sat there with a smile at the moment, feeling a lot more relaxed.

"My lord, are you going to arrest people from the King Jin family tomorrow?" Shen Lian asked Zhang Hao.

"Why arrest them? Just arrest the salt merchants, but those salt merchants are also unlucky. If they don't cooperate with King Jin and the others, I really have nothing to do with them. The key is that they still collect taxes from the people. You say Just take it, you handed it over to the government, and you didn’t hand it over, these are capital crimes! If these salt merchants and their families are all dead, it’s really not worth it!” Zhang Hao said with a little regret while sitting there .

"My lord, do you still sympathize with them?" Shen Lian asked with a smile upon hearing this.

"I sympathize with those children and some innocent women. I sympathize with the salt merchants. They have violated my Great Ming law many times. It is not a pity to die!" Zhang Hao looked at Shen Lian and said.

"Then arrest people early tomorrow morning?" Shen Lian said to Zhang Hao.

"Well, let's catch them early tomorrow morning and let them have a good sleep in the restaurant!" Zhang Hao nodded and said,
I was thinking in my heart, how to save those innocent people, whether I can save them depends on whether I can let them go here, if they are sent to the capital, they will definitely not be saved, this matter still needs to be done by myself To operate is,

There are many underage children in the homes of these salt merchants. It would be a pity and cruelty to kill them like this. The adults are at fault, but the children are not. In addition, there are many children in the homes of those salt merchants. For concubines, some concubines were snatched or bought, and if they died like this, it would be a pity and an injustice.

"My lord. My lord?" When Zhang Hao was thinking about how to save them, Hu Zongxian and Zhang Juzheng came over.

"Well, is the matter over there in the salt field finished?" Zhang Hao looked at Hu Zongxian and asked.

"Go back to your lord, it's done, the announcement has been posted, including the price of the experiment, we have posted all of it, we go to buy the salt on the last day of every ten days, there is still a lot of salt in the salt field, I am going to let it go tomorrow Someone went to collect it, but there is no money now, and the salt that was spread out has not been paid yet!" Hu Zongxian said to Zhang Hao.

"How much is expected?" Zhang Hao looked at Hu Zongxian and asked.

"Master, it is estimated that 2 taels of silver will be needed!" Hu Zongxian said immediately, cupping his hands.

When Zhang Hao heard this, he took out a bank note from his pocket, counted out 2 taels, and handed it to Hu Zongxian.

"Take it and collect it, and return it to me when the money is returned!" Zhang Hao confessed to Hu Zongxian.

"Thank you, sir!" Hu Zongxian took it and said to Zhang Hao.

"Okay, you two have been busy all day. If you have nothing else to do, go to rest!" Zhang Hao said to the two of them, and they immediately bowed their hands to Zhang Hao and retreated.
Early the next morning, after Zhang Hao got up, he ate first. At the moment, at the restaurant, those salt merchants were also sitting there having breakfast. I don't know that I won't be able to eat such a good meal tomorrow, so now they are very willing. Some people sit there and eat, but it is actually tasteless. They have something on their minds, how can they eat well.

"Bring a pot of wine!" A salt merchant shouted loudly. Drinking early in the morning can only be done by people in a bad mood.

"Okay, sir, bring it here right away!" The waiter greeted with a smile, and then he was about to go get the wine,

But at this time, many Jin Yiwei came in outside.When the salt merchants saw them, they knew immediately that something was wrong.

"You, you, and you,... you! Take them away!" A hundred households began to count people in the lobby, and some Jinyiwei had already gone to the accommodation at the back, and started to arrest people. After a while In no time, the dozens of salt merchants were all arrested.

"My lord, didn't Marquis Lu An say to let us go? Why are we being arrested again now? What do you mean?" Zhang Sijiao said very dissatisfied while being detained.

"What do you mean? It's time to arrest you? What do you mean?" the Baihu said with a smile.

"I'm wronged, I'm wronged!" Zhang Sijiao yelled loudly, Jin Yiwei was not used to his faults, he pushed his knees, Zhang Sijiao almost spit out what he just ate.

"Take them all away!" With a wave of Baihu's hand, all those people were escorted away. On Zhu Xinlong's side, Zhu Xinlong was just sitting there having breakfast.

"Master, master, it's not good, those salt merchants have been arrested!" A manager rushed in and spoke before he could stand still.

"What did you say? You were arrested, when did it happen?" Zhu Xinlong looked at the person in charge in surprise.

"Just now, they are still escorting them to the cell, sir!" The manager continued.

"What Zhang Hao wants to do, the court has not yet reached a conclusion, so he just arrests people, didn't he say it before? We have to wait until the court has a conclusion?" Zhu Xinlong's face was blue at the moment,
He didn't expect that those talents came out for a few days and then went in again!The people below did not dare to answer the conversation, they just stood there serving Zhu Xinlong.

Zhu Xinlong sat down and thought about it carefully. He was still eating with a bowl in his hand, but he didn't know what he was eating.

Soon, some people from the clan came to him. There were General Zhen Guo, General Fu Guo, and Lieutenant Fu Guo, etc. They were all members of the royal clan and the lineage of the King of Jin.

"I'm talking about the sixth son. What should we do now? You are the brains of the family, and the elder brother listens to you. Now that something like this has happened, what should we do?" A middle-aged man looked at Zhu Xinlong Said, he is Zhu Xinlong's younger brother, the second is the county king, and Zhu Xinlong is the sixth, but he was named the general of the auxiliary country.

"Second brother, I don't know what to do now? Eldest brother is in the capital, and I don't know what to do. Now that we have reached this point, I feel that we have made mistakes. We should not have taken care of the Wu family's affairs before.

But the eldest brother didn't want to lose the Wu family, so he went to the capital. Unexpectedly, the loss was even greater. This time, the emperor may deliberately beat our Jinwang family, and the salt may be taken back, and those pig irons are too. In this way, our Jinwang family may suffer a huge loss this time! "Zhu Xinlong sat there and said with a sigh.

"How did this happen? Well done, why did the emperor deal with us?" The county king looked at Zhu Xinlong and asked, and the others also stared at him.

"Because the Wu family was suspected of smuggling, we still hope that the emperor will not punish the Wu family, and want to pull Zhang Hao down, which angered the emperor. Now we can only explain it in this way, but the emperor's purpose is still not to let the court make an exception. The money has been paid, but the eldest brother dare not open this hole, once it is opened, other feudal lords will have opinions, after all, there is no money to come down every year, if it is cut off like this, everyone will definitely not agree!" Zhu Xinlong said helplessly.

"Then what should we do now? Are we just sitting like this?" the county king continued to stare at Zhu Xinlong and asked.

"Immediately write a letter to the eldest brother and ask the eldest brother to plead guilty, so that the punishment may be lighter!" Zhu Xinlong looked at the county king and said.

"Apologize, I don't know the outcome of the matter, so please apologise. Besides, aren't there activities in the capital? Are you going to pull Zhang Hao down? Are we a bit confused?" Another Fuguo general looked at Zhu Xinlong and asked up.

"I'm worried that it might just be the beginning. If the eldest brother can really pull Zhang Hao down, that's fine, but if he can't, Zhang Hao will retaliate!" Zhu Xinlong looked at them and asked.

"I think it's better to wait. We just arrested those salt merchants. We don't know the situation in the capital. However, we can write to Big Brother and ask Big Brother, what should we do now?" The king of the county thought about it, looked at Zhu Xinlong and asked.

"Alright!" Zhu Xinlong still felt bad, there was nothing he could do, he didn't know much now, and he couldn't handle Zhang Hao here.

"Dong dong dong!" At this moment, there was a sound of slamming the door outside, and a person in charge ran over quickly: "Master, the master is not well, there are many Jinyiwei and imperial guards coming outside, one of them Hit the gate of our house with a hammer!"

"What?" Zhu Xinlong stood up in surprise when he heard that, and then walked quickly outside, and Zhang Hao had already smashed the door open.

"Zhu Xinlong, you bastard, I'll beat you to death!" Zhang Hao was about to hit Zhu Xinlong with a hammer, Zhu Xinlong saw that it was Zhang Hao, and saw him running towards him with a hammer, so he immediately stepped back in fright run.

"Hey, Marquis Lu An, misunderstanding, misunderstanding, what's going on?" Zhu Xinlong shouted loudly while running, and those Jin Yiwei were also quickly controlling the entire area, so Zhang Hao couldn't be put in danger.

"What's going on? Back then you asked me to release those salt merchants. You agreed that no one should impeach me. Now, the ministers in the capital will all impeach me, and I will kill you!" Zhang Hao continued holding the hammer. Chasing after Zhu Xinlong.
