Chapter 48 Framed
Zhou Qiuya remained calm and analyzed carefully: "There is only a few forces who can steal 100,000 stones of food under Liu Lei's nose without knowing it, and only a few forces can do it in the capital city!"
"Five major families!"
Chen Xiao said coldly, without thinking too much, it is easy to guess.
The five major families have huge power in the capital city and have extremely extensive complex relationships. Only they have the ability and courage.
"I just don't know which one it is," He Changwen narrowed his eyes slightly.
"Or which ones?"
Chu Qingyan had a gloomy face. She knew that the opponent had taken action, and this move was a killer move!
Liu Lei is hard to protect.
Five major families in the capital city: Lu family, Lin family, Chen family, Wang family, and Liu family.
Who is taking action in the fog?
Zhou Qiuya said in a heavy tone:
"The only way now is to find the stolen 100,000 stones of food and the evidence that the mastermind behind the scenes framed Liu Lei, so that we can have the chance to exempt Liu Lei from his death penalty."
But it was too difficult. Zhou Qiuya showed a pessimistic tone. The enemy exposed theft on the day the guards received the food, and they must have made complete preparations. They had just arrived in the capital city for a month, and their foundation was not stable yet. It was so difficult to find evidence.
Moreover, after this blow, the people I worked hard to recruit in the previous month were wasted, and Chu Qingyan's prestige dropped drastically.
Everyone bowed their heads and was silent.
Looking down, Liao Siting's eyes lit up, as if she had thought of something, she quickly raised her head and said:
"This matter may not be without a turning point. We have a small power, but we can find a big force to help us find it together!"
"Big force?"
"Which force is willing to be involved?" Chen Xiao shook his head and smiled bitterly.
Fan Min's eyes were filled with tears. She had no thoughts now, and her mind was full of Liu Lei's miserable appearance in prison.
"Yes, and I'm sure there is a family that is definitely not the murderer!"
Liao Siting's affirmative tone made everyone's eyes focus on her.
Faced with everyone's inquiries, Liao Siting said in a relaxed tone:
"Lin Family!"
"Everyone, don't forget that Bo Lin Changhai, the government corps, is the main responsibility for food and grass. If the granary is stolen, he will also be implicated because he cannot deal with this matter with us.
We can also win over the Lin family because Lin Changhai doesn't want to be implicated and wants to solve the case.
The Lin family has a huge influence, deep roots in the capital city, with many connections, and they should be able to find clues."
Hearing Liao Siting's analysis, everyone's eyes became brighter and brighter, and they found a way to break the deadlock.
He Changwen followed Liao Siting's thoughts and thought of something again, raised his lips and said, "I think we will soon know who took action against us!
When using the granary theft case to frame Liu Lei, the enemy could not have known that they would offend the Lin family, but they still did it, so they were very likely to deal with us and also deal with the Lin family!
The Lin family knows more clearly who is capable of doing this in the other four families and who is hostile to the Lin family."
Everyone was relieved when they heard the words. Finding the enemy means finding the direction, and finding the right direction makes it easier to find a solution.
"We can also find the King of Chu."
"Theft of 100,000 stones of grain is no longer an ordinary matter. This is simply a provocation to the court. The provocation to the King of Chu, whether it is for the face of the court or for himself, the King of Chu will definitely find out."
Chen Xiao also thought of this and said with a smile:
"This is a killer move for us, but it is also a huge hidden danger for them. Once we can find evidence, they will be dead!"
After everyone's analysis, they felt that they had found a way to break the deadlock, and their expressions became relaxed. They looked at Chu Qingyan and waited for her order.
However, when they looked at Chu Qingyan, they found that Chu Qingyan was frowning.
"What you just analyzed makes sense, but why do I always feel something is wrong? They spend so much effort and such high risk, just to get rid of Liu Lei?"
When everyone heard Chu Qingyan's words, they felt calm.
He offended the granary, offended the King of Chu, and offended the Lin family, just to solve the problem of a small Liu Lei?
Is it really possible?
"Not good, Miss Second!"
Qingyan, who had never seen a figure at this time, rushed in quickly, with an anxious look on her face.
"What's wrong?"
When Chu Qingyan saw Qingyan's appearance, she felt a bad feeling.
"Miss Second Miss, now...the capital city knows that the Xicheng granary has lost 100,000 stones of grain, and everyone is talking about it.
The people behind it have taken action again, and now all kinds of rumors that have ruined our reputation have spread throughout the capital.
They said… they said…”
Qingyan ran in quickly, and after stopping, she couldn't breathe. After taking a few deep breaths, she said the matter in a series:
"They said that it was the bandits we took in that colluded with Liu Lei to steal 100,000 stones of food!
The incident of us suppressing bandits and plundering money was also revealed. Now it is said that we only went to suppress bandits because we were attracted by the money of suppressing bandits, and we took all the bandits in.
It is said that there has never been a granary theft in Dufucheng before, but now we have a granary theft incident as soon as we come.
We have a lot of people, and Liu Lei is the grain guard in Xicheng, so it is very easy to join forces to steal the granary.
So it was reported that the bandits we took in were unclear and stole 100,000 stones of grain from the Xicheng granary.
The people were already disgusted with bandits. As soon as the news of bandits stealing granaries came out, without any evidence, most of the people now believe that the bandits we took in colluding with Liu Lei to steal granaries.
Now someone fanned a group of people to the government office and asked the police to check our residences, believing that the 100,000 stones of stolen grain was hidden in our camp."
rub!
Everyone stood up, their faces extremely embarrassed.
Commander Yang, who had not spoken, also said with a gloomy face:
"It is not only that the people hate us, but they also want to cut off our access to the guards of the capital city.
The guards of the Dufucheng City instinctively dislike the bandits. Now some people have charged us with the crime of stealing the granary. If we cannot resolve the case of the granary theft, we cannot prove our innocence.
The people will only follow the trend blindly, and they are only willing to believe what they hear.
The rumors outside are enough to make all the guard soldiers feel bad about us. It is impossible for us to interfere in the guards anymore."
Zhou Qiuya's face turned pale: "Once we cannot obtain conclusive evidence, the rumors in the city will become true if we pass on for a long time. When we go to the yamen guardians and the people, everyone will feel bad about us, and we will be unable to move forward in the capital city!"
"Commander Yang, you will return to the camp immediately to guard the camp and immediately check all places. There must be no mistakes!"
Chu Qingyan said very solemnly, if the mastermind behind the scenes secretly transported part of the stolen grain with the granary logo to his cavalry and the camp where the bandits were taken in.
