Spoilers for The Red Mansion, Daiyu’s mentality is broken

Chapter 363 No evidence of guilt required

Yuanyang couldn't help but asked happily: "It turns out that the third master has already obtained the evidence of the crimes of these three families, and finally we can take them all down in one fell swoop! How great!"

Jia Huan glanced at Yuanyang strangely and asked, "What evidence is there?"

Yuanyang smiled and said: "It is the evidence of the crimes committed by the Cao family, Bai family and Song family. If the third master had not obtained the evidence of their crimes, how could he have sent people to capture them directly?"

Jia Huan smiled and said: "If we take down these three families, what evidence is needed? After we take them down, there will be evidence of guilt! The magistrate of Miemen and the magistrate of Pojia, do you think it's just talk?"

Yuanyang couldn't help but said: "Ah, this..."

Next to him, Mo Da couldn't help but praise: "I don't care about the small details when doing great gifts, and I don't hesitate to make small concessions when doing great things. The third master has mastered the way of being an official!"

Jia Huan said calmly: "Why would I want to do this? However, these aristocratic families have really lost their humanity. In order to oppose the new law, they do not hesitate to raise their butcher's knives and are ready to massacre."

"When facing evil people, you need to be more evil than them. If you follow the law and follow the rules, I'm afraid you will die in their hands sooner or later."

Yuanyang said: "Third Master, this slave has learned a lesson."

Jia Huan said to Mo Da again: "Mo Da, when I came to Ping'an County to take up my post, I was assassinated. At that time, I secretly took a machete."

"Wait for tomorrow, take this scimitar with you, and take another three hundred knives from your Mo family, and put them secretly among these three families. This is their evidence of crime!"

The Cao, Bai, and Song families all deserve to be killed, but the evidence of their crimes cannot be collected for a while.

And to prevent them from jumping over the wall in a hurry, Jia Huan simply doesn't have that much time.

In this case, let's concoct some incriminating evidence for them first.

As long as the person is caught, the rest of the evidence can be slowly searched.

After Mo Da and Yuanyang accepted the order, they began to arrange manpower.

That night, Jia Huan taught Yuanyang how to read and write as usual.

Yuanyang was a little distraught, and she couldn't help but secretly admire the third master's demeanor without changing his expression even if the mountain collapsed.

She couldn't calm down and was very nervous.

Soon after, Jia Huan took a shower and went to bed on time.

Jia Huan, who used to fall asleep quickly after lying on the bed, found it difficult to fall asleep tonight.

For a time, my thoughts were racing, my mind was wandering, and countless things were coming to me.

After a long time, Jia Huan suddenly heard the sound of fighting coming from the street.

Jia Huan knew that Xia Qing had already taken action.

I don’t know, is their action going smoothly?

Jia Huan was waiting quietly.

If things don't go well, someone will knock on the door tonight to report.

If everything goes well, no one will come to disturb his sleep tonight.

Jia Huan waited quietly.

Time passed bit by bit, and no one came to knock on the door.

In the haze, I don't know when, Jia Huan fell into a deep sleep.

……

Let's talk about the second watch. Xia Qing suddenly woke up a thousand soldiers from their slumber.

Then they made a fire to cook. Everyone put on their thin armor and weapons, and went straight to the houses of Cao, Bai, and Song.

Each of the Cao family and Bai family has 400 troops, and the Song family has 300 troops.

The Cao family and the Bai family are the two largest aristocratic families in Ping'an County. The Song family is weaker than these two families, so the Song family has the fewest soldiers.

Xia Qing personally led his troops to surround the Cao family. He left a hundred soldiers squatting outside around the Cao family.Then he led the remaining 300 people and broke through the door directly.

The huge noise woke up everyone in the Cao family.

In the first courtyard, the guards and servants of the Cao family lived.

When they heard the noise, they thought it was a thief, so they hurriedly put on their clothes and prepared to go out to catch the thief.

Unexpectedly, after coming out, they discovered that the people who broke into their house were actually officers and soldiers.

For a moment, these people were confused.

How can this be?

Their master is the magistrate of Ping'an County. How could officers and soldiers suddenly break in?And beat anyone you see?
Those who were knocked down were tied up with ropes and thrown aside.

Anyone who dares to struggle will only be beaten harder.

If anyone resisted with weapons in hand, they would be killed on the spot.

The young guard of the Cao family was caught off guard.

Almost a hundred bodyguards were all taken down in just a quarter of an hour.

Next, Xia Qing quickly led people into the second courtyard, where some women lived.

These old women were the most timid, and some were even scared to the point of peeing.

Xia Qing directly ordered people to gather them roughly in a large room, leaving five soldiers to guard them.

Next, we entered the third courtyard. The little maids lived here.

These maids were treated the same as the women who entered the yard before, and were quickly locked up in a room and supervised.

Then enter the fourth courtyard, where the maids of the mansion live.

However, when Xia Qing led people to rush in, they found that there was no one here, and they all evacuated to the main house at the back.

Soon, Xia Qing led his soldiers to the main house and surrounded it.

At this time, the county magistrate Cao An opened the courtyard door, looked at Xia Qing, and scolded sternly: "Bold, I am the magistrate of Ping'an County! You are a small patrol inspector, who gave you the courage to surround my mansion? ? Don’t you want to rebel?”

Xia Qing sneered and said, "So that County Magistrate Cao will know that this inspector is under the order of the magistrate and is here to arrest the traitor Cao family who has ties to foreign countries!"

"After we take it, we will guard it on the spot and wait for the county magistrate to take action. If there is resistance, we will kill without mercy!"

"Archers, get ready! Swordsmen and axemen, follow this inspection and go in to get people!"

Xia Qing's inspection was not an ordinary inspection, but was sent directly by Emperor Chongkang.

Cao An is a small county magistrate, how can he be frightened?

Xia Qing gave an order, and a hundred archers quickly unloaded their arrows.

A hundred swordsmen and axemen rushed in quickly.

Seeing this, Cao An couldn't help being shocked and angry.

He shouted loudly: "I, the people of the Cao family, don't resist, let them take it. Huh! I don't believe it. I, Daxia, have no laws of heaven and no king's law! I believe that the emperor and the people above the court are My Lord, I will definitely give you justice..."

Before he could finish his words, he was roughly knocked down by a soldier, tied up with a rope, and thrown aside.

Cao An couldn't help being shocked and angry.

He really didn't know what was going on. How dare he order someone to rush directly into his home to fetch that kid from the Jia family?
The son of the Jia family was just a county magistrate. Who gave him the courage to take down his entire family?
Although his official position is half a level lower than his, he does not have the power to remove himself, let alone directly take him down.

Even if he commits a crime, he must first report it to the superior officer for a decision. (End of chapter)
