Chapter 458: Huang Ye (Second Watch)
The people sent by Jin Xida set their sights on Huang Ye, a northeastern businessman who had just returned to the city from the suburbs of Beijing, and the mansion of Master Zhang, a Chinese scholar. But it didn't alarm them, just secret investigation and close surveillance.
According to what they investigated, Huang Ye had indeed only been in the capital for a few years to do business, and he traveled back and forth between the capital and Liancheng in the northeast. With the gradual expansion of business and contacts, in order to facilitate the operation and entertain partners, Huang Ye also purchased a two-entry courtyard in Beijing, where every inch of land is valuable. In addition to more than a dozen slaves and maids, he also raised a charming aunt, which seems to have settled in the capital.
Huang Ye not only did the seafood business, but also brought a large number of dried seafood from Liancheng to the capital, and even brought fresh seafood from ice to the capital, and also transported the specialties from all over the Great Zhou from the large "barter center" in Yulin to the northeast, so he often went to Yulin.
Zhang Shilang has no abnormal records so far, because a cousin of Mrs. Zhang is married in the Northeast and is a distant relative of Huang Ye, so Huang Ye brought things to Mrs. Zhang twice, and the Zhang family met Huang Ye.
Huang Ye is a lively and sleek businessman, the best at communicating, often send some valuable seafood to the Zhang family, back and forth, the relationship between the two families is not bad now, sometimes when Huang Ye came over, Zhang Shilang happened to have colleagues to be guests, and he would also be introduced to him. One by one, Huang Ye knew a lot of officials in the capital.
Xia Ruoxue was indeed introduced to Huang Ye by Mrs. Zhang. Huang Ye wanted to find a shrewd and capable collaborator in the capital. And Mrs. Zhang happened to have a handkerchief with Xia Ruoxue since childhood, so she recommended Xia Ruoxue.
Jin Xida and the three of them followed the vine and sorted out the information of the officials Huang Ye knew through the source of Zhang Shilang, and found that the officials that Huang Ye would climb up and keep in touch with all had several common characteristics: medium official positions. It's all deputies. There is no strong background. So often as a backup, but also often back the black pot...... In a word: they are all characters who struggle in the officialdom, are easily angry, and naturally have heavy grievances.
If you are angry, you definitely need to vent it. The strange thing is that I don't know if this Huang Ye is particularly good at enlightening people, or because he is generous, every time he is invited to the door, he will bring a lot of gifts, and those officials will take Huang Ye as a small businessman as a confidant, and talk about the wine chief when he is happy. will even leave him in the house to talk at night......
On the day when Xia Ruoxue apologized for his death, Huang Ye was about to leave for Yulin, and his personal servant who was sent to Xia Ruoxue to deliver a message hurried back to bring back the news of Xia Ruoxue's death, as well as Qing's mother's crying at the door of Anguo Mansion, so angry that he casually smashed a glass vase in his hand that he was about to take to Yulin to give away.
He didn't expect that Xia Ruoxue would be so resolute and play such a ruthless trick with him. was messed with by Xia Ruoxue like this, and the three of Xia Linyu's family became dead chess, and his planning and arrangement for a year were all in vain in an instant. It's all a joke. The only thing that is fortunate is that Xia Ruoxue still has some scruples. He was not exposed.
The more he thought about it, the more angry he became, and in order to put an end to future troubles, Huang Ye immediately issued an instruction: find a suitable time to get rid of the three of Qing's mother and Xia Linyu, Zhou, and Xia Shuyao as soon as possible. He can't afford to make any more mistakes, otherwise, he will be recalled to the Northeast soon, so what else can he compare with that?
He is just very unconvinced, they are also concubines, and his father spent a lot of money and manpower to cultivate that cheap seed, but he refused to give him the opportunity to make contributions? Why? Obviously, his mother is his father's favorite woman.
Although my father has three outstanding sons-in-law, the chances of my concubine inheriting the unification in the future are very small, but once he has made a first-class contribution to his father's great cause, and then mastered the military power in the process of the uprising, he will not be able to sit on that chair in the future, and he will be as powerful as the current Prince Yong, right?
Now, he finally made some achievements with his years of hard work, let his father see his ability, allowed him to stay in the capital, and allocated him money and people. Although his father resolutely refused to reveal any information about that to him, nor did he let him have access to the power in the hands of the, he was still very confident that he could take over all the power in the hands of that as soon as possible and become the first person to play for his father.
Huang Ye canceled Yulin's trip and decided to go back to Liancheng. Liancheng is his base camp as Huang Ye, and the strategists and powerful subordinates have not followed over there, so they can go back to make another plan.
Jin Xida, Shujie, and Qi Haoning were very disappointed, thinking that they would be able to touch the big fish this time and find out the potential big fish in Beijing that had made them entangled for more than two years. It's a pity that although they have now been able to determine that this Huang Ye is from the northeast side of the fine work (that is, I don't know whether it is a Japanese person or a person from the king of Northern Qi), and he is also planning to set Shu Yao, but according to a series of checked information, it is obvious that this fine work is still in the stage of gaining a foothold, feeling the way, and laying the foundation, and the person who remotely controlled the South China Sea and the behind-the-scenes master who chased and killed Qi Haoning's group of killers are not in the same group (at least judging from the handwriting of the flying pigeon, can be sure that Huang Ye is not the person they were looking for who hid in the capital back then). They intuitively felt that this person was much worse than those two people, not on the same level.
The emperor listened to the report and frowned so much that he could kill flies, in the capital, under his nose, how many fine works were there? It is still the three beloved nephews in front of them to be vigilant, otherwise they will not even be able to find these two meticulous works with those officials in the court who are boastful, intrigued, and can only say that they will not do it.
It's just that, according to the information found so far, there is no need to arrest this Huang Ye now, it's just a matter of startling the snake. The fine works that can be sent to the capital are all dead soldiers, and if they are caught, they may already be bleeding, (until one day they know the true identity of this Huang Ye and his voice is small and his heart is bold and small, and they really regret it, and they regret not ending him earlier.) It's better to keep watching, and there is still a chance to find out who his master is.
Of course, the person who monitored, the emperor was replaced by the Netherworld, and that was the highest-level spy of the Great Zhou.
Huang Ye's matter is not within the scope of Shu Yao's concern, so it is naturally impossible to ask his father-in-law and eldest brother. She was curious if Xia Fu would send someone to "invite" her.
But within a few days, news came that Xia Linyu and Xia Shuyao fell off the cliff and died, and Zhou fainted when he heard the news, but never woke up.
Mrs. Xia, who was already seriously ill, didn't swallow her breath and immediately closed her eyes.
Shu Yao sighed, the people of Xia Mansion had a good time in their previous lives. In this life, she just guarded against them, didn't let them get cheap, and didn't retaliate against them. And they were only missing half a box of silver and half a box of medicinal herbs, how could they end up in such a field? (To be continued......)
