Chapter 356: The Destruction of the Three Major Families in Yunyang Prefecture
When the stone door of the secret room burst open, the scene before them shocked everyone.
The secret room was filled with all kinds of treasures, including dazzling gems, exquisite jades, precious calligraphy and paintings, as well as piles of gold, silver and jewelry, sparkling with alluring light.
On the other side of the treasures were mountains of food, including rice, wheat, and beans, enough to support a large family for several years.
"These are the treasures and food hidden by the Yu and Zhao families."
Lin Qiu'er said in a deep voice, "No matter what they plan, it's ours now."
These treasures and food would be a drop in the bucket if used to resettle the people displaced by the war.
However, it can also solve the urgent need of rushing to help Quan'an Prefecture.
So, Lin Qiuer signaled the guards to immediately start organizing manpower to transport these treasures and food out of the secret room and send them back to Yunyang City.
Until all the treasures and food in the secret room were transported to the surface, Lin Qiuer looked at the mountain of things and felt both happy and regretful.
The good news is that the army’s funding and food supplies have finally been secured.
What they regretted was that the Yu family, a new noble family in the imperial court, was only from Yunyang Prefecture, which ranked last among the eight prefectures, but they had accumulated so much wealth in just twenty or thirty years.
In such wealthy prefectures as Shouchang Prefecture, Chuanxian Prefecture, and Litai Prefecture, how wealthy must the local nobles, wealthy families, and officials be?
But it doesn’t matter. After the war is over, Lin Qiuer plans to open up channels for people to speak freely so that those who have been wronged can seek redress.
Haha, she just didn’t believe that there wouldn’t be a few termites in these people’s homes.
Liquidating too many families would cause panic, but she would only choose one government at a time, which would also serve as a warning to others.
After thinking it through, Lin Qiuer's mood immediately became cheerful.
In order to avoid attracting the attention of the Yu and Zhao families so quickly, Lin Qiuer and Gu Anqing discussed and decided to enter the city after dark.
The things found in Yujia Village had already been delivered to the Nalan army stationed outside the city.
The Nalan army soldiers guarding the city gate had received orders from the Luan team in advance, so they were always paying attention to the movements outside the city.
As soon as they noticed the guards approaching, the gatekeepers quietly opened the city gate and let them in.
The group returned to the house quietly.
Before dawn the next day, Lin Qiuer, Gu Anqing and Lin Nanyue divided their troops into three groups and surrounded the Yu, Zhao and Gao families.
The heavy door was easily broken open, and the soldiers rushed in with knives. Sharp shouts were heard from inside the mansion.
"What are you doing? We are the nobles of Yunyang Prefecture, so we won't tolerate your insolence."
The Nalan soldiers were well-trained. Once they entered the Yu Mansion, they only arrested people. Those who resisted fiercely were beaten up without saying a word.
Lin Qiu'er sat high on the horse's back and watched coldly as the soldiers pushed out the masters of the Yu family one by one and sent them to the prison in the government office.
Yu Maodian in the team was pushed forward by the soldiers. After walking a few steps, he couldn't help but look back at Lin Qiuer sitting on the horse. His expression was cold, like a demon.
He shook his head, thinking that he must have recognized the wrong person.
In my memory, Sister Lin, who saved me, was very kind to me.
The people of Yunyang Prefecture who were watching on both sides of the road were whispering to each other as they watched the Yu family being arrested, their voices as low as mosquitoes.
The same situation exists with the Zhao and Gao families.
In the government prison, Lin Qiuer sat on a chair, leisurely admiring a white jade cicada that she had just copied from the Yu Mansion. In her previous life, she could only watch such a thing from afar and not play with it.
Behind the grille door, Yu Huachi was covered in wounds, breathing heavily, and staring at the woman outside with hatred.
If looks could kill, the woman in front of him would have died hundreds of times already.
"Yu Huachi, aren't you going to tell me yet?"
Lin Qiuer's voice echoed in the prison. She looked coldly at the man who looked like a dead dog, waiting for his answer.
Yu Huachi snorted coldly and kept silent, obviously not intending to speak out easily.
"It seems that you won't cry until you see the coffin."
Lin Qiuer smiled slightly and turned to look at the other male members of the Yu family.
"What about you? Are you willing to tell us the location of the house where something is hidden in the city?"
Yu Huarong gritted his teeth and refused to say anything, vowing to take those treasures to hell with him even if he died.
But Yu Maodian hesitated. He glanced at Lin Qiuer secretly, and a complex emotion surged in his heart.
"If I tell you the location of the house where the things are hidden, can you let my mother and my brothers and sisters go?"
Although Yu Maodian's voice was low, it was loud enough for everyone present to hear clearly.
Upon hearing this, Yu Huachi swung his hand and slapped Yu Maodian hard on the face, shouting angrily, "You evil son! How dare you betray the family!"
Mrs. Yu next door saw this and immediately rushed over to protect her son through the wooden fence, cursing Yu Huachi.
"You beast! You commit evil deeds and even beat your own son!"
Lin Qiu'er did not try to stop her and watched as Mrs. Yu's fingernails scratched several bloody marks on Yu Huachi's face.
"Mother, wuwuwu..." The boy, who looked about seven or eight years old, hugged Mrs. Yu's thighs and cried uncontrollably.
Today's incident frightened the fearless little bully so much that his face turned pale.
A little girl in a bright red dress walked over, hugged the boy, and patted his back gently to comfort him.
"Don't be afraid, little brother! Mom and sister are here. Be good and go sit over there with sister."
The boy was coaxed away by the little girl and sat down against the wall, and the two hugged each other.
Next to them sat a young lady, holding a sleeping child in her arms, and a daughter of four or five years old was leaning on her feet.
"Dian'er, how are you?" Mrs. Yu asked worriedly, stretching out her hand.
There was a red palm print on Yu Maodian's face. He shook his head and said, "Mother, I'm fine."
Then he walked to the wooden fence and said to Lin Qiuer, "You are Sister Lin, right?"
Hearing this, Lin Qiuer was a little surprised. She didn't remember when she had seen the children of the Yu family, but she remembered that she had killed Yu Geng in the desert.
"How do you know my surname is Lin?"
"Sister Lin, do you still remember that three years ago, you rescued a carload of children who were abducted by human traffickers in Quan'an Prefecture?" Yu Maodian asked earnestly.
"You are among those kids?" Lin Qiuer really didn't expect this.
Yu Maodian bowed to Lin Qiu'er across the wooden fence and said, "I haven't formally thanked Sister Lin for saving my life yet."
Mrs. Yu felt mixed emotions as she watched her son bow and thank the man who had put the Yu family in jail.
She understood that the Yu family was completely finished.
But her children are still young, and have not yet enjoyed many of the joys of being human. They should not disappear with the Yu family.
"My Lord, I know where it is."
Madam Yu knelt down on the ground and said to Lin Qiuer with a pleading look on her face, "I'll tell you everything, I just ask you to let the children live."
"Mother, please stop talking." Yu Maodian was aware of his situation. As the eldest son of the Yu family, even if Sister Lin showed leniency, he would have no chance of survival.
"I just ask that you show some leniency to my mother and my brothers and sisters. As for me..."
Yu Maodian turned his head and looked at his biological father and uncle who were looking at him with hatred, and smiled bitterly, "Just let me accompany Dad for a while."
