Chapter 131 Digging the ground three feet [48]

Following Su Xian's order, the soldiers swarmed up like wolves and tigers, and pushed the young man who was standing against the hoe to the ground...

The crowd was in an uproar and took a few steps back. They didn't understand why Su Xian wanted to arrest this person.

Zhou Ji's office and the deputy general were also confused.

Su Xian saw their doubts, but instead of answering, he looked at Li Zheng and asked:

"Do you recognize this person?"

At this moment, Tang Shujing also came to her senses, her face was stupefied, her bright eyes flickered, but she didn't speak.

Li Zheng looked at it carefully and said: "I recognize it. This is Li Laoshi. He is a simple and honest man, so he got this nickname... He must be unjust!"

Su Xian sneered and was about to ask questions when Tang Shujing said first, "Where is his home? Take us there quickly."

At this time, Zhou Ji’s office and the deputy general also reacted——

This young man named "Li Laoshi" does have a big problem.

Just now, everyone didn't dare to talk too much, just stood on the periphery and watched silently, but he was the only one who was in a hurry to get out of the city to work in the fields... Is it time to rush to work in the field at this time?

Su Xian looked at Tang Shujing and nodded. It seemed that she not only knew how to say "The best goddess in the world", but also had two skills.

He turned around and saw Li Zheng hesitating, his face immediately darkened, and he threatened and intimidated...

Li Zheng was frightened and hurriedly led the way.

Later, a large group of people rushed to the same place in Wubao.

Li Laoshi was also detained and accompanied him. He looked innocent on the surface and struggled all the way, but in fact he was secretly anxious.

Soon, everyone came to a dilapidated house on the easternmost side of Wubao.

Su Xian looked at it carefully and ordered: "Go in and search again."

More than a dozen soldiers took the order, quickly completed the search and then exited, reporting: "There is nothing abnormal."

As expected... Su Xian nodded.

"Mr. Su, I've searched it a second time, but there's still nothing unusual. It shows that Li Laoshi was really wronged!" Li Zhengzuo said with a bow.

"It's wrong! I'm wrong. Is there any justice..." Li Laoshi struggled and howled.

A few elderly people on crutches walked out of the crowd and said:

"Fellow officials, Li Laoshi was raised by the common people. He will definitely not hide the Liao people!"

"Yes, this is the second time we have searched. If Li Laoshi had been hiding people from Liao, he would have discovered it long ago..."

"..."

Su Xian turned a deaf ear to their discussions and calmly ordered: "Tear down this house for me!"

The scene was quiet for a while.

Li Zheng suddenly reacted and advised: "Master Su, no, absolutely no, this is Li Laoshi's ancestral home, it cannot be demolished..."

Old people on crutches also tried to persuade him.

But it was no use. The soldiers and detectives who had received the order had already swarmed forward, found various tools, and in an instant caused a dilapidated old house to collapse.

There was a loud bang, and countless dust splashed up.

"You...you destroyed my ancestral home, you will die badly..."

Li Laoshi yelled.

Li Zheng and the old people in Lijiazhuang were completely stunned, and then trembled with anger.

Some of the people watching were very angry and whispered bad things about Su Xian and the court.

Su Xian remained unmoved and only ordered Li Laoshi's mouth to be blocked.

…The soldiers and the policemen worked hard, cleaned up the ruins on the foundation, checked them carefully, and then came back to report:
"There is no mezzanine in the wall, and no secret tunnels were found on the foundation."

Su Xian's expression remained normal and he just nodded.

Tang Shujing frowned slightly, walked up to Su Xian with her long legs, and the two began to discuss in secret in a low voice.

Zhou Jishi and the deputy general swallowed their saliva. They both thought that this trip was in vain...

The houses were all demolished, but no trace of the Liao people was seen. Wasn't this a wasted trip?
Li Laoshi struggled even harder, but with a cloth stuffed in his mouth, he could only make a sound of "wuwuwu".

The people watching started talking in low voices, occasionally glancing at Su Xian, their eyes not very nice, but after all, they were afraid of the court and did not dare to discuss loudly.

Li Zheng and the old people in Lijiazhuang calmed down. As the saying goes, people do not fight with officials, they decided to swallow their anger. Li Zheng bowed to Su Xian and said:

"Mr. Su, now that the matter has come to this, it can be seen that Li Laoshi has not been hiding any Liao people! My Lijiazhuang has not been hiding any secret envoys from the Liao Kingdom either!"

"It's getting late, Mr. Su... please come back!"

"..."

Su Xian glanced at Lizheng, then passed it, looked at the bare foundation not far away, and ordered: "dig three feet of the foundation for me!"

what?
Digging three feet into the ground? !
The scene once again fell into a silence that could hear a pin drop.

This is too harsh.

The practice of digging three feet into the ground was actually discussed by Su Xian and Tang Shujing.

It was mainly proposed by Tang Shujing, and Su Xian was stunned when he first heard about it.

Because Tang Shujing has been secretly observing Li Laoshi's words and deeds, she does not have two brushes as Su Xian thought, and others have at least four!
She has already noticed that Li Laoshi's spirit is different, so she has the idea of ​​digging three feet...

"Wooooow..." Li Laoshi struggled harder, and the fear in his eyes disappeared in a flash.

"Dig three feet into the ground? Let me see who dares!" At this time, an old man on crutches walked tremblingly in front of the foundation, stopped the soldiers, then looked at Su Xian and said sternly:

"Although I live in a remote place, I have always heard that Princess Lanling has a great reputation. Today, in the name of officials of the princess's palace, you are not only destroying private houses, but also digging up three feet..."

"I have lived for most of my life, and I have never seen anything like this... If you want to dig, just step over my body! Anyway, I don't have much time left, and I don't have any children to drag me down. I am not afraid of you waiting... "

"..."

Although Li Zheng was shaking with anger, he still stepped forward to dissuade the old man.

It would be unwise to have such a conflict with someone from the imperial court.

But the old man was unusually stubborn. As he said, he had no worries and had enough life. He really dared to do anything now.

Seeing this, the people watching shared the same hatred, but no one came out to support.

Zhou Ji's office and the deputy general felt slightly ashamed. Just as they were about to dissuade Su Xian, they heard Su Xian's instructions: "Carry the old man away! Then dig out immediately!"

Although the old man was stubborn, he was eventually carried away, and the excavation work began immediately. Hundreds of soldiers worked together, and the scene was very spectacular.

Li Zheng and the old people's eyes were about to burst, and they shouted:
"Tomorrow I will go to Yingzhou to seek justice from Princess Lanling..."

"..."

Although the people watching did not speak, their eyes were very unkind, and they had the urge to go to Yingzhou to complain with Li Zheng and others.

Su Xian shook his head and thought to himself: "They are just little people. Do I have to tell you that I saved the princess's life? Does the princess listen to you or me?"

Just as he was shaking his head, a soldier on the foundation suddenly shouted:

"The soil here is different!"

"This is new soil, just backfilled, and it is very different from the soil next to it!"

"..."

Is the soil different?

Su Xian, Tang Shujing, Zhou Ji's Office, the deputy general, etc. all looked at each other and stepped forward to check.

Li Laoshi stopped struggling in response, a large amount of cold sweat broke out on his forehead, and a thick gray color flashed in his eyes.

Li Zheng and the old people who were shouting excitedly stopped suddenly and turned to look at the foundation.

The faces of the people watching all changed, and they were paying close attention to the development of the situation.

"Sure enough, it is newly backfilled soil! Keep digging, and remember to be gentle!" Su Xian said seriously.

"Yes!"

At this moment, in the entire world, only the soldiers on the foundation were moving and wielding shovels.

The rest of the people were all frozen, all staring in the same direction, their complexions changed again and again, in short, they became more and more ugly.
