About This Novel
Uncle Diao Guo went out after being drunk and walked to an alley where he saw a group of women watching the lights. One of the girls, a girl of seventeen or eighteen years old, caught Diao Guojiu's attention. He then ordered his servants to seize the opportunity to snatch the girl back to his house. When the servant who robbed someone rushed back to the Hou Mansion, he met Yan Ling, the deputy director, and captured him. Uncle Guo Diao Fa asked him to let him go, but Yan Ling refused, so he asked his servants to beat him. In the chaos, an angry Yan Ling slapped Diao Fa. Diao Fa couldn't bear this breath and picked up six thousand taels of silver. He first went to the nine gates, the Admiral Zheng Dutong Prince, the Criminal Department Hall Master Zhang, and the Inspector Chen Master. Then he pretended to be injured and went to the West Palace to cry. Empress Diao of the West Palace cried to the emperor that her brother was injured by Yan Ling, and asked for long live justice. The emperor was furious and immediately issued an order to capture Yan Ling. Zhong Pei knew about this and immediately went to find Master Yun. He reported to the emperor and was able to personally review the case and clear Yan Ling's name. Diao Fa should have been executed, but because Diao Hou pleaded for mercy, he was spared the death penalty, was demoted to three levels, and fined one year's salary. Because of this incident, Diao Fa held a grudge, which coincided with the rebellion of the Western Qiang people, so he wrote a memorial and ordered Yan Ling to go on an expedition. He secretly sent a letter to the eldest child, Diao Long, asking him to devise a plan to make Yan Ling die at the hands of the enemy.
