Mo Tian also showed surprise, "Let's go meet those who have an affair with Cheng Feng for a while and see what is going on." Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info”

I don't know if those people have heard the wind a long time ago, but they don't see any guests, either they go out or are sick in bed.

That's a coincidence.

The dozen or so families found from the Cheng family's small house were all in condition without exception.

Song Chunniang intuitively felt that someone had reported the news, but it was only half a day since she and Mo Tian came out of the Cheng family's shop, who was so powerful that more than a dozen families were notified?

"I'm afraid, this matter is not done by Cheng Feng alone, in addition to Li Yanhong, he has other accomplices. And these accomplices are right under our noses. Mo Tian analyzed.

This can also understand why they disappeared in the capital in just one night, and they couldn't find it. What should we do next? ”

"There's another family, let's go and visit."

"Where?" Song Chunniang asked.

"Ripple Palace."

"Lianwang Mansion?" Song Chunniang was taken aback, her memory is not bad, why don't she remember that the little girl mentioned the Lianwang Mansion?

"During this time, Helian Chong was very close to the Lianwang Mansion, and before, if I remember correctly, Fulai Yuan got an invitation to the Lianwang Mansion banquet, it was through the Li family, right? The Li family is not a big merchant, how can they get an invitation from the Lianwang Mansion? Or did you take it for someone else, don't you think there's something greasy about it? ”

In fact, when Helian Chong mentioned at the beginning that the Li family helped get the invitation to the banquet of the Lianwang Mansion, Song Chunniang suspected that the admission ticket to the Lianwang Mansion could actually have space for the Li family to manipulate? Let the nobody's Fulai Garden also step into the gate of the palace. That's too capable.

According to the current situation, it is likely that there is an internal response of the Li family or Cheng Feng in the Lianwang Mansion.

If you go to explore the Lianwang Mansion, you may know where Cheng Feng is currently hiding.

"Master Mo, why do you have time to come to this king today?" As soon as Lord Lian heard that Mo Tian was visiting, he walked out of the inner room with a smile, and was a little surprised to see Song Chunniang, "This is not Miss Song?" ”

Lord Lian actually remembered himself, Song Chunniang couldn't help but be surprised, but she didn't show it, and replied with a blessing salute: "It's the people's girl." ”

"Hehe, why are you here together?" Lord Lian was obviously confused about such a combination, so he asked the guests to ask questions directly after they sat down.

Mo Tian hugged him, "I'm really embarrassed, there is something I want to trouble the prince to help check it." ”

"Oh? Master Mo, please talk about something, don't be polite. ”

"That's the case, the official and the Beijing government are tracking down several suspects who poisoned and murdered others, Cheng Feng and Li Yanhong. It is understood that they had gotten an invitation to Fulai Yuan at the banquet in the Lianwang Mansion before, and we suspect that they have colluded with some people in the palace, and want to ask the prince to help investigate, who is in charge of this matter? Who opened the door to convenience? ”

"Fu Lai Yuan? If this king is not mistaken, Miss Song and Prince Helian are the bosses of Fulai Garden, right? Could it be that where did the invitation come from, Miss Song didn't know? ”

Song Chunniang expected that the Lian Wangye would have this question, and said frankly: "The invitation was obtained with the help of the Li family, and it was Helian Chong who contacted them, and I was also curious at that time, why the invitation from the Lian Wangfu would be given to Fulai Yuan, but Helian Chong explained that the Li family has a doorway, and I didn't think much about it." ”

"So, Miss Song is completely unaware?"

Song Chunniang nodded, "But that's the case." ”

"Won't it?" Lord Lian obviously didn't believe it, "Isn't there communication between you and Helian Chong?" ”

During that time, it was true that the two rarely communicated, and there was nothing to communicate, and neither of them thought about it.

"Don't hide it from the prince, Helian Chong and I are going to break up and stop doing business together." Song Chunniang said calmly. "At that time, we also had disagreements, and it was true that there was less communication."

"That's right." Lord Lian seemed thoughtful, "That's a pity." ”

"Moreover, the place where the poison was poisoned was Helian Chong's house, and he couldn't escape it." Mo Tian added. "To put it mildly, maybe he and Cheng Feng and Li Yanhong are accomplices."

"In that case, the king will definitely help you find the real culprit. Someone, call the king's steward. "Lord Lian ordered his subordinates.

After a while, a middle-aged man walked in and bowed to Lord Lian, "Lord Wang, are you looking for something small?" ”

Lord Lian pointed at Mo Tian, "Imperial Inspector Mo is now handling a case of poisoning, there are some questions to ask you, you have to answer honestly." ”

Steward Wang immediately bowed to Mo Tian again, "Master Mo, if you have any questions, it doesn't hurt for you to say it, the little one must know everything and say everything." ”

Ho, this steward Wang is quite slippery in his speech, and he thinks he is a slippery head.

Mo Tian glanced at him, didn't look at him squarely, and said leisurely: "Last month, the Lianwang Mansion held a banquet, were you responsible for sending invitations?" ”

"It's the small ones, the small ones are sent door-to-door according to the list drawn up by the prince, according to the usual rules."

"Is the list still there?"

"Yes, yes." Steward Wang nodded hurriedly, "I don't dare to lose this thing, so I lock it in a small room drawer." ”

Mo Tian said to Lord Lian: "This official wants to take a look, I don't know if it's convenient?" ”

Lord Lian replied briskly: "It's convenient, why is it inconvenient." Come, go to the drawer of the king's housekeeper's room and bring the list of banquets. ”

Someone quickly went and fetched it.

Mo Tian took it in his hand and looked at it carefully, and then handed it to Song Chunniang, "Take a look, if there is a problem." ”

Song Chunniang took it and took a look, the front was all the official eunuchs written in gilded big characters, the back were some poetry and book families, and finally the small block written in black ink was the merchant family.

It is obvious that the front and back were not written by one person.

"Lord Lian, Master Mo, the name of the merchant family behind this is added later?"

Lord Lian said: "The list was set at the beginning, although the king did not look at them one by one, but the king still asked about which side of the invitation." But the businessmen are too many and fragmented, and each time the banquet is different, if they all let the king decide, the king can't take care of it. ”

Prince Lian's banquet will invite some different merchant families every time, including the official eunuch family and the scholarly family, and there are twenty or thirty families each time, which really can't be taken into account.

"So, the name of Fulai Yuan is not set by you, the prince?" Mo Tian asked.

Lord Lian nodded, "Exactly." ”

"Do you know that Steward Wang?" Mo Tian turned to Steward Wang again and asked.

Steward Wang glanced at Lord Lian, lowered his head and replied, "Master Mo, the little one, I don't know. (To be continued.) )
