Liu Yong Pursues the Case 刘墉追案 Episode 9

Qin Lang was dissatisfied with being so surrounded by Solentu, Liu Yong said that the top priority was to pry Xu Wu's mouth open. He Zifeng worried that Sorrentu's actions would threaten Jin Wan'er's safety, and proposed to let her return to the capital, but Jin Wan'er insisted on staying here with Liu Yong. Liu Yong arranged for He Zifeng and Qin Lang to take turns to protect Xu Wu. Although He Zifeng didn't quite understand his intention, he still followed Liu Yong's arrangement. Master Zang has never seen Fuguotai, so he decided to go to the governor's office in person, even if he slept there, he must see Fuguotai today.

He Zifeng gave Qiu Mengnan a dagger to let her use it for self-defense. Lord Zang finally saw Fuguotai. He knew Lord Zang was here for Solentu's mission to encircle the mansion. He asked Lord Zang to do whatever he wanted. Liu Xier prepared a table of small dishes and wine for Liu Yong, and talked about how to make Xu Wu speak. They learned from Dahasu that within three years, Xu Wu killed five lives. Taking advantage of this, Liu Yong directly interrogated Xu Wu in prison. Liu Yong asked Qin Lang to drag Xu Wu down and cut it. Xu Wu was finally afraid. He said that he had something to say to Liu Yong, and that he was speaking to him alone.

Solentu was eating in Binmanlou, and told his servants that Liu Yong was his enemy. It seemed that Solentu had already murdered Liu Yong. The lady boss outside heard their conversation. Xu Wu told Liu Yong that he had a lot of black account books of Shandong officials, the black income of many officials, and the exchanges of underground banks. Xu Wu had a clear account in his hand. After confirming that Liu Yong could save his life, Xu Wu asked him to bring paper and pen, and he wanted to write down all the charges of Solentu. Here, Solentu’s soldiers are still stationed in the Binman Building, where people eat and drink, and Xiang Yuerong plays the piano upstairs.

He Zifeng has taken an important task. He has to rush out of the siege with testimony and evidence, which is very dangerous. After He Zifeng left, Liu Yong asked Qicai and Qiu Mengnan to join Gege, and all the officials and head-catchers were sent to the prison. Now it seems that Liu Yong and Xu Wutong are going to live and die together with Xu Wutong. Solentu learned that He Zifeng had left the government office, and quickly sent someone to chase him. He also changed into casual clothes, entered Dongchang Mansion from the side door, and brought Liu Yong a lot of fresh rice noodles and vegetables. Solentu first showed weakness with Liu Yong, and Liu Yong also dealt with him politely, but Liu Yong still strictly rejected Solentu. Solentu had no choice but to leave, and Liu Yong asked Liu Xier to throw out all the food he had brought.

He Zifeng rushed all the way back to the capital. Fuguotai's father went to find Heshen. He wanted to ask Heshen if there was any good way to let Fuguotai escape the disaster. If there is an accident in Shandong, Fuguotai, as the governor of Shandong, is absolutely free. It doesn't matter. He Shen persuaded Fu Guotai's father to stay, waiting for news from the palace. He Zifeng submitted the evidence and testimony to Qianlong, but Qianlong did not make a statement, but let He Zifeng go down to drink the ginseng soup. Solentu let people check it out, and learned that Xiang Yuerong’s younger brother Xiang Wu was a head-catcher in Dongchang Mansion. He asked someone to secretly bring Xiang Yuerong’s earring, and sent someone to bring the earring into Dongchang. The government showed it to Xiang Wu and threatened Xiang Wudang's ghost to do things for them.

Xiang Wu is very embarrassed. He is timid, but it is impossible to ignore his sister Xiang Yuerong. When Qin Lang arranged manpower, Xiang Wu used his stomach as an excuse to stay outside, but Qin Lang still asked him to stay in the prison to protect Xu Wu's safety. Master Zang went to Dongchang Mansion from Jinan. At first, Solentu thought he had brought him a paperwork. He never thought Master Zang was here to stop him and ask him to withdraw his troops.
