Chapter Forty-Nine: Late Night Visit
Beijing, Xi family. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info
Accompanied Xi Zhongyun to Changhuan Lou to listen to Ou Meiyi's Kunqu Opera for two consecutive nights, Gu Beijun observed every trace of his changes from time to time, he felt that his father's beauty trick was just right for Xi Zhongyun, and he had to admire his father's old fritter.
On the last night of Xi Mansion, Gu Beijun seized a heaven-sent opportunity. By chance, he found Dajiu in the mansion garden when he was drinking with Zhong Yun that day.
That day, Da Jiu held something in his hand, and came in in a panic to say that the Queen Mother had orders, but after seeing Gu Beijun, he obediently shut up. Gu Beijun pretended to be stupid and fooled through at that time, but he had deep doubts about this Dajiu in his heart. When he accompanied Xi Mo around the house in the morning, he really saw Da Jiu sneaking into a locked courtyard.
Late at night...
Seeing that Xi Mo on the bed was sleeping soundly, Gu Beijun stretched out his palm and gently pressed it on the acupuncture point behind her neck, which could ensure that she would not wake up for three hours. Gu Beijun put on black clothes, took out a piece of black cloth, and left quietly.
Walking in the huge Xi Mansion, carefully interspersed with trees, although it was already early in the morning, he was still very cautious and did not dare to be sloppy.
"Take care of the side yard."
Gu Beijun saw the flames from a distance, and hurriedly hid in the low lying, he heard someone talking, and it seemed that those people were very concerned about the side courtyard.
"Dajiu, didn't you have to send that shipment out today?"
The other next to him recognized that he was talking, Gu Beijun frowned, Da Jiu, it was the one who rushed in that day. But as for the goods, what are they? Could it be true that as they suspected, Xi Zhongyun was reselling arms to make money to support Empress Dowager Xiao's forces?
"Boss Xi's son-in-law is here today, and Boss Xi said that he will ship it again tomorrow."
"He can't even trust his son-in-law."
"What do you know, his son-in-law is the emperor's cousin."
In the last sentence, Da Jiu's voice was very small, but Gu Beijun could hear it.
"I see."
The man seemed to have a sudden realization, and then said nothing.
"I'm going to look for another place, you guys are optimistic about this hospital."
Da Jiu said a few words and left, Gu Beijun wanted to enter the opportunity to find out.
In the darkness of the night, there was a shadow flying across the wall, and even if there were many people around, they didn't see him. Gu Beijun's light skills are excellent, it's not that he can't do the thing of taking the head of a general among the ten thousand armies, it's just that he is just a businessman now, he can't kill people, but he will definitely use light skills to achieve his goals.
jumped and took off to the high wall of the backyard, and Gu Beijun lay on it and looked down.
I saw that the lights in the courtyard were very bright, there were a lot of people, there were a few cauldrons in the distance, like cooking pots in the march, there were several rooms in the courtyard, and the rooms were all lit, as if they could see the light of the fire through the window paper.
What are they doing? So much so that he is not idle in the early hours of the morning?
With such a question, Gu Beijun jumped off the three-meter-high wall more and more boldly, and hid in a remote corner to observe secretly.
There is a dirt road in the courtyard, there are carriages standing on the dirt road, seven cars side by side, very neat, the horses are not unleashed, but tied with the car, Gu Beijun concluded that they were originally going to transfer things tonight, but because they lived here, the cunning Xi Zhongyun would change the day.
Gu Beijun suspected that the carriage was filled with munitions.
Although it is a felony for businessmen to resell arms, because of the high profits, it is common for wealthy businessmen to commit crimes against the wind, but if it is Xi Zhongyun who resells arms, Gu Beijun will associate it with the current situation. Now the situation is uncertain, the Queen Mother Xiao Yun is in power, the Gu family's world is crumbling, and there are even more rumors among the people about Xiao Dynasty Gu Xing, the people are panicking, Gu Beijun knows the relationship between the Xi family and Xiao Yun, and the Xi family is rich, so there is no shortage of money. And although Xiao Yun holds the power, but the economic power is firmly in the hands of several ministers entrusted by the emperor, if Xiao Yun wants to usurp the throne and seek power, she will inevitably get the money first, but the gate guard of the capital is very strict, even if it is a rich businessman, he can't take too much silver to go out, so reselling arms is the most profitable, last time in Yucheng, Gu Beijun and Xi Zhongyun and Quan Ye had dinner together, and the person they invited was the government of the capital, Therefore, Xi Zhongyun is absolutely capable of smuggling arms out of the city and then exchanging them for silver to cultivate anti-party forces in other places. Therefore, Gu Beijun decided that there was arms inside, and Xi Zhongyun's efforts to find people from the official mansion in the capital to eat were bound to collude with officials and businessmen.
In order to confirm this inference, he quickly flew to the side of the carriage while the people were changing the guard, and at this time, another team of guards changed the guard to take care of it, Gu Beijun couldn't get out, so he had to first attach his hands and feet to the bottom of the carriage, and then enter the carriage to find out.
"Oops, I'm so sleepy, it's ugly."
This group of people standing guard looked as if they had just been woken up, yawning one by one, sleepy-eyed.
"I don't think it's a good situation, otherwise we'll take turns sleeping."
One person suggested, and the people next to him agreed.
...
Half an hour later, Gu Beijun finally saw the awake guard dozing off, so he moved his slightly sore arm and carefully moved his body to the back of the carriage.
He tiptoed up the curtain, and to his surprise, there was nothing inside, it was empty.
He took advantage of the cover and changed two more carriages, but there was still nothing.
He hurriedly returned to the side of the high wall, and pondered seriously: the horse was not unloaded, which means that the car should be equipped and ready to drive away at any time, but why is there nothing in it?
Because the horse was parked on the dirt road, Gu Beijun looked at the footprints of the horse, and was suddenly shocked: How could it be?!
Why did the horse's hooves sink a few inches deep into the ground?!
Does that mean the wagon itself is heavy?
But... There was nothing in the car!
In order not to startle the snake, Gu Beijun didn't dare to stay any longer, and quickly left the side courtyard and returned to the room.
Back in the room, Gu Beijun pondered over and over again, he thought of the situation that the horse did not remove the reins and carriage, it seemed that the carriage was going to go out of the city during the day, so he decided to find out during the day.
The error in judgment made Gu Beijun realize that he seemed to be led into a conspiracy, and the error in judgment was not to prove the error of the matter, but to make the gaffe more and more unreasonable, it seems that the Xi family does hide an ulterior secret.
