351　　The two servants were stunned for a moment, and then looked at Old Alutai. Old Alutai frowned, looked at the two servants and said angrily: "You two bastards are talking nonsense. Didn't you say that Chen Jiusi was masked last night? You didn't see it clearly, right?"

　　"Yes, yes, I didn't see it clearly."

　　The two servants spoke up immediately. Wu Hong frowned and said, "How can you be sure it's Chen Jiusi's without seeing you?"

　　"this?"

　　The two looked at Old Alutai again, and Old Alutai said, "Didn't you say that the voice was Chen Jiusi?"

　　The two of them immediately said, "Yes, yes, it sounds like Chen Jiusi."

　　Wu Hong sneered when he heard this: "Haha, okay, since we can tell it's Chen Jiusi by the voice, how about we do an experiment? I'll call Chen Jiusi over and find a group of people, and you guys can find Chen Jiusi's voice."

　　"This~"

　　The two servants were speechless. Old Alutai frowned, turned around and looked at Wu Hong fiercely and said, "Are you looking for trouble on purpose?"

　　Wu Hong said: "I didn't, I think you want to frame someone else?"

　　"False accusation, haha, what a joke, how noble are we Mulan people to frame others, all right, you can go now, the case of our Mulan people will naturally be handled by the Darughachi Mansion, so there is no need for you Han constables."

　　Wu Hong looked at Old Alutai and said, "Okay, but I advise you, old sir, the court has its own laws, so don't act too recklessly."

　　After saying that, Wu Hong clasped his fists, turned around and left. He hated this group of Mulan people to the extreme.

　　But why did these Mulan people target Jiu Si? Did Jiu Si offend them?

　　No, I have to find a way to send a message to Jiu Si.

　　Old Alutai looked at Wu Hong's back, and a sneer appeared on his face: "Haha... the laws of the court? They are just tools used by us Mulan people to control you Han people. What laws do we Mulan people need to be bound by? Haha, it's really ridiculous!"

　　Old Alutai smiled and shook his head, then said to the people beside him: "Gather representatives from all families and follow me to the Darughachi Mansion. I don't believe that we won't be able to find a place to reason with you!"

　　…

　　In the Darughachi Mansion, Yelu was enjoying his breakfast. His breakfast was very rich, with more than a dozen kinds, including Han people's steamed buns, fried dough sticks, as well as Mongolian milk cakes, fresh milk porridge and so on.

　　Darughachi was sitting there at that time.

　　A 28-year-old girl peeled a shrimp, dipped it in the sauce, and then fed it into Daluhaci's mouth.

　　Daruhachi tasted the sweetness of the shrimp, then opened his mouth, and a maid put a mouthful of fresh milk porridge into his mouth.

　　Nobles who know how to enjoy life don't have to cook their own meals.

　　Yelu came from a wealthy family, so naturally he knew how to enjoy life. Yelu was eating happily when suddenly, hurried footsteps were heard outside and Qimuge walked in.

　　"master."

　　Yelu swallowed the fresh milk porridge in his mouth, looked at him and asked, "What are you so flustered about?"

　　After hearing this, Qimuge said, "Master, something has happened. Old Alutai has brought hundreds of Mulan people to block the gate of our mansion, and they are shouting for you to give them justice."

　　"Um?"

　　Yelu frowned slightly, waved his hand to let all the maids who were serving dinner leave, and then looked at Qimuge and said, "What kind of justice do they want me to administer?"

　　"Master, I haven't had time to report this to you yet. It's the Tara family."

　　"Tara? Who?"

　　"It's the Tara family who falsely accused Chen Jiusi of killing their man last time."

　　Qimuge spoke up, and upon hearing that, Yelu said, "Oh, him, what happened to his family?"

　　Qimuge said: "The family was wiped out!"

　　"What?! Destroy the whole family??"

　　Yelu's eyes suddenly widened. Are you kidding me? Wiping out the entire family? What a huge hatred and resentment!

　　"Tell me what happened in detail."

　　Yelu was no longer calm at this time. After all, the annihilation of the Mulan family was a big deal. If you calculate it carefully, it can be regarded as a dereliction of duty by him as Darughachi!

　　So he had to take it seriously.

　　At this time, Qimuge said: "It is like this. Last night, Tara's family of 36 people were all slaughtered overnight, leaving only 70 old women."

　　"After learning about this, the county government sent people to investigate early in the morning, but old Alutai and his gang found out in advance and drove away the county government's case handlers. Now everyone has come to the gate of our mansion, clamoring for us to do justice for them."

　　Yelu said: "Be fair. Yes, this matter cannot be taken lightly. You should ask the county government to conduct a thorough investigation and find the murderer within three days! Give an explanation to the local Mulan people."

　　Qimuge said: "Master, there is no need to check. The murderer has already carved his name on the pillar of Tara's gate. It was done by the Zoroastrians!"

　　"Zoroastrianism?"

　　Yelu frowned: "How can they be so arrogant?"

　　Qimuge said: "Very arrogant, but the problem now is not to catch the murderer, but these local Mulan people, they all said that the murderer is not a Zoroastrian, but Chen Jiusi!"

　　"Chen Jiusi? What does he have to do with this?"

　　Yelu was completely confused, thinking that this was just a frame-up.

　　However, Yelu soon understood the thoughts of these local Mulan people. Their purpose was not to kill the murderer, but to bring down Chen Jiusi.

　　Only when Chen Jiusi falls will they have the opportunity to get involved in the Nanhu Salt Field and gain benefits.

　　But how could Yelu bring down Chen Jie? The Mulan nobles had not yet investigated clearly that the largest shareholder behind the Nanhu Salt Field was Yelu.

　　In other words, the industry that these Mulan people coveted was actually Yelu's industry, and this group of people were targeting him.

　　Yelu narrowed his eyes, turned to Qimuge and said, "Go to the government office and call Tang Wannian."

　　Qimuge said: "Yes."

　　"Wait, there's also Wu Hong."

　　"yes."

　　Qimuge immediately said after hearing this, Yelu smiled and said: "Okay, when Tang Wannian arrives, you can call old Alutai and the others in. "

　　"yes."

　　Qimuge nodded.

　　Watching Qimugege leave, Yelu frowned.

　　Old Aluta is not someone who is easy to deal with. He is a representative of the local indigenous Mulan people. He is also a long-lived man. He is already sixty-seven years old today. His long life has allowed him to see a lot of things, so he is called a wise man by the locals.

　　It also represents the interests of the local herders.

　　The south is different from the north. The north practices slavery, where slave owners are above everything else and the Han people are slaves of the Mulan people.

　　However, since the Mulan people in the south did not have enough ruling power, they adopted a conciliatory policy towards the Han people. Therefore, the Han people also had a certain degree of autonomy, and the Mulan people could not be too unscrupulous. They also needed to obtain their own interests through their own efforts.

　　In other words, at the very least, you have to manage your own business to gain more wealth, rather than robbing others openly.

　　Because of this, the life of the Mulan people in the south was very difficult, because they could not rob the Han people's businesses openly, but could only rely on their connections and take them down through the government. Moreover, the Han people could leave directly and could not be slaves of the Mulan people or manage their shops. As a result, even if the Mulan people robbed a shop, it would be difficult for them to run it as well as the Han people.

　　This is completely inferior to the North. The northern herdsmen would take a fancy to the Han people's shops and rush in directly. They would put a slave collar on the male owner of the shop that very night, and he would become the herdsmen's dog from then on.

　　The wife and daughter would also be sent to Master Mulan's bed to be played with by the master.

　　But what about the South?

　　As a Mulan person, I have gone to great lengths to use official means to make your shop mine, and then I have to run it. Is this fair?

　　Can't you just sit back and get paid?

　　It was precisely because of this policy that was extremely unfavorable to the Mulan people that they robbed many shops, which eventually closed down, and made their families poorer and poorer.

　　They had no choice but to stick together and finally chose a highly respected "wise man", old Aluta.

　　He really had some skills and they gained a lot of benefits. This time, old Aluta summoned them and said that there was another good thing and they could make some money.

　　Immediately, everyone came to Darughachi to appeal for justice. We were wronged!

　　Because of this, they hurried over, surrounded the Darughaci's mansion, and asked Darughaci to redress their grievances.

　　As for the injustice, it is of course the injustice of Chen Jiusi killing our friend Tara's family.

　　Soon Qimugege came back, leading a man behind him, who was the representative of the Mulan people, old Alutai.

　　At this time, Yelu was sitting at a table nearby drinking a pot of Longjing tea.

　　When he saw old Alutai, he immediately stood up and said with a smile: "Ah, Uncle Alutai, haha, long time no see!"

　　Yelu saw old Alutai forcing a smile, although he was not very happy and even didn't want to see this hateful old Alutai. After all, this Alutai represented the interests of the local Mulan people.

　　The local Mulan people are fanatical supporters of Mulan supremacy and also supporters of Daqian Prime Minister Bayan.

　　However, Yelu was the representative of the Hanization party and a political enemy of Bayan, so the relationship between the two groups was not harmonious.

　　However, after meeting, the most basic courtesy is still required.

　　Yelu greeted Old Alutai with a big smile on his face, took Old Alutai's hand and sat down, saying: "Uncle Alutai, I really missed you after not seeing you for a long time."

　　As he spoke, Old Alutai said, "I miss Lord Yelu, too."

　　Yelu said, "Uncle Alutai, would you like some Longjing?"

　　Alutai waved his hand and said, "I am not used to drinking Chinese tea, Lord Yelu. This time I came here to seek justice for Tara's family."

　　"Well, I heard about Tara's family. They are indeed extremely rampant. Don't worry, I will immediately mobilize all the people in the county to capture the Zoroastrian rebels and avenge Tara's family."

　　Yelu said to Old Alutai sincerely. Old Alutai was stunned and looked at Yelu and said, "Who said it was done by Zoroastrianism? The murderer is Chen Jiusi from the White Tiger Hall!"

　　"No, hahahaha... I read the case report from the county government. It was done by the Zoroastrian rebels!"

　　Yelu said with a smile again.

　　Old Alutai glared and said, "Master Yelu, you have been deceived. Can you believe the Han people's report on the case? They are all colluding with each other. You are the Darughachi of my Mulan people, not the Darughachi of the Han people. You have to make the decision for us!"

　　Old Alutai looked at Yelu and said, "Uncle Alutai, you are wrong. I am not a Han Darughachi, nor am I a Mulan Darughachi. I am a Daqian Darughachi, and I must abide by the laws of Daqian!"

　　"Isn't Daqian our Mulan people? So if you help us Mulan people, you are abiding by the laws of Daqian?"

　　Old Aluta looked at Yelu and said. Yelu remained expressionless when he heard this, but he cursed the old fox in his heart, "You are trying to make trouble for me, right? What's the difference? The difference is whether I give the interests of Nanhu to you or keep them for myself."

　　Is it possible for me to not make a choice in my mind?

　　Yelu said, "Uncle Alutai, I understand your feelings, but as the Daqian Darughachi, I must enforce the law impartially. I cannot give up my adherence to the laws of Daqian just because of your intimidation. Therefore, everything depends on evidence. You said that the murderer is Chen Jiusi, do you have any evidence?"

　　Alutai said: "I have..."
