As soon as Kaifeng Mansion sighed that he was unlucky, he was blind to the case, but the emperor was extremely shocked, and he was afraid that he was also extremely frightened, and strictly ordered to find out how Liang Shicheng died, what was going on in the Liang Mansion bloody case, and what secrets were hidden behind it. The people of Kaifeng Mansion were so pressed that they were no longer motivated to solve this case, and they were no longer willing to solve this case, so they had to work hard to investigate.

What the officials handling the case didn't know was that the luxurious Liang Mansion in Dongcheng was just a cave set up by Liang Shicheng on the bright side, and his adopted son lived in it to support the scene, which was also convenient for receiving bribes.

Another place where gold and silver treasures are really collected is in the house of an ordinary wealthy family in the northern city.

The residences in the East Side are just empty on the surface.

Liang Shicheng is cunning and suspicious, and in fact, he will not really trust anyone completely. The adopted son of the adopted family is just a signboard that covers people's ears and one of the backup means to provide for the elderly. Really valuable good things and big money, the adopted son can't receive it, but it is just a small amount of money that collects some daily bribes, but he doesn't know it, he is naturally happy, grateful, and in awe, and he is respectful and filial to Liang Shicheng, and lives a good life of drunken dreams and arrogance that the people are obsessed with getting rich and expensive.

This adopted son is young, strong, and good-looking, but not smart.

Liang Shicheng deliberately picked the stupidest and most timid and obedient of his nephews, but he looked like a successor like that. He didn't really have a lintel for his succession and successors. It's to pick an ignorant dirt bun fool, enjoy the taste of being a father being filial piety, and train and deter to control and use it.

Because in the early years, from Zhao Gonglian, he unknowingly felt that he had a lot of profound understanding of life, Liang Shichengbi knew very well in history that since he chose to be a traitor and took the road of a villain who brought disaster to the country and the people, then wealth and glory were limited to himself, and other relatives could share the benefits when he was alive and in power, but once he lost power or died, then all of them had to follow the bad luck, no matter whether the good officials or bad guys would step on it fiercely when the time came, they would step on it fiercely to get rid of the traitorous reputation and scrape the material interests of the Liang family.

He is just a eunuch, with no background, no real family heritage, and no real friends and friendship in officialdom.

It's just taking advantage of each other.

But Liang Shicheng has no regrets.

His nature and ability are suitable and destined to be a villain, otherwise he will not be able to mix in the palace, and if he is mixed, he will simply be selfish to the end, and everything is only for himself before and after death.

This secret cave in Beicheng is interspersed with the courtyards of many ordinary wealthy mansions around, and it is so simple and ordinary that it is completely inconspicuous.

Normally, no one would pay attention to such a family.

This secret property was purchased nearly a decade ago.

At that time, Liang Shicheng had not yet mixed his fortune, but he was middle-aged but only one of the consul eunuchs who had just seen the hope of the power of the inner cabinet in the palace, and had the opportunity to wait by the emperor's side, or Zhao Gonglian, who was just in his early twenties, was a diligent and loyal little follower in secret, he wanted to gain the trust and favor of the king faster and more solidly, and he had to rely mainly on the guidance and help of the young Zhao Gonglian.

But under Zhao Gonglian's intangible, but qualitative power at that time, with Zhao Gonglian's deliberate push, Liang Shicheng already had a lot of opportunities to receive bribes, began to have money, and also tasted the wonderful taste of power, so he became more and more greedy and diligent, and went to the position of chief eunuch. The secret house for storing bribes was also set up at that time.

Liang Shicheng's cunning is very measurable.

In fact, the "household" arranged by Liang Shicheng to guard the secret office of Beicheng did not know that this was the gold hiding place of the chief administrator.

They just live here, living as usual, and by the way, they monitor the neighbors nearby, especially the old eunuchs who Liang Shicheng put here to retire and wait for death.

Liang Shicheng set up the treasure in the secret room three or four zhang deep underground in this courtyard, the secret cave is an arched structure, it is not easy to collapse, it is very solid, and there are brick pillars to strengthen the support, and a large amount of cement reinforces all the cave walls to seal the ground, set up a mechanism, but the entrance and exit are hidden in the house of this more ordinary person next door.

The old eunuchs who were placed here for retirement did not know the secret.

Even if they guessed, they couldn't afford to steal the treasure, in fact, even if they knew the secret, they didn't dare, they didn't want to steal.

They are all lonely eunuchs who will die at any time in a few years, and it is a great honor to have such a comfortable retirement place to wait for death, otherwise they will die in the palace silently and tiredly, and be dragged out of the palace to the mass grave and be eaten by wild dogs at will, what's the use of risking stealing so much money? How much can you move away if you succeed? Where can they flee to?

Living here, guarding this house, eating and waiting for death is the most ideal end.

In fact, they never leave the house from the moment they live in. Everything is sent by someone in a car.

Liang Shicheng also often puts on makeup and secretly comes to "visit" the old guy for one night.

The old eunuchs were grateful to Liang Shicheng, who was merciful and compassionate.

The neighbors around the house are also accustomed to the fact that there are often carts and horses to bring food and vegetables, and they turn a blind eye, so no one pays attention.

The "household" who was ordered to live next door and monitor the east neighbor thought that these old eunuchs had great kindness to Liang Shicheng's rise in the palace, and they naturally had what handle Liang Shicheng had, so Liang Shicheng treated the old eunuchs so kindly, but secretly arranged them to monitor and control.

No one knew that every time Liang Shicheng came in person, the so-called use brought by the carriage concealed a large amount of gold and silver wealth bribes that had been collected recently.

Liang Shicheng was willing to live in a humble place for one night, not to catch up with the old eunuch and express any humanistic care, but to quietly enjoy the treasures in the secret room and steal fun.

This guy knew that a companion was like a tiger, and he also expected retribution after death, so he originally wanted to choose a feng shui treasure in his hometown to prepare a mausoleum, but he changed his mind.

There are so many treasures that they are collecting, and they are increasing rapidly, so that they are reluctant to accept the white flowers and silver they like, and they pay attention to gold and other treasures. He couldn't imagine that he had died and lost power, how such a huge sum of money could be successfully transported back to his hometown to accompany him for burial, and how could those relatives who were not close to him be willing to use the treasure for the funeral according to his instructions before his death.

Liang Shicheng was afraid that after his death, the mausoleum would be ripped up, and the body would be ruined by revenge, so that he would not be at peace after his death, and he would never let others get the treasure he had accumulated so hard. He is literate and readable, some literary talents, otherwise he would not have been favored by the artist emperor, understand the truth of hiding in the court, hidden in the city, and hidden in the wild, seeing that this secret room is so secret, strong and wonderful, he decided to treat this as a mausoleum, not to mention the bothering to carry treasures, and who would have thought that he would be buried in the capital.

Liang Shicheng arranged the mausoleum issue he was most concerned about a few years ago, so he was particularly concerned, and wanted to build the secret room into a gold brick pavement, build a silver wall, and lie down with his favorite treasures and die happily, and he did not use a coffin to completely hide people's eyes.

Anyway, it's all sealed with thick cement, not to mention rats, not even insects, and the corpse won't be damaged by bites.

For this reason, he began to like silver again, and the gold and silver treasures became more and more frantically restrained.

As for how to hide the entrance to the secret room when he died, how to completely destroy the trace, and make this place an eternal secret, he had already planned and carefully arranged.

But his seamless plan can be hidden from others, but it can't be hidden from Zhao Gonglian, who helped him ascend to the throne and has been arranging to keep an eye on him secretly from the beginning.

When he learned that the imperial court wanted to investigate the truth of Liangshan in the name of condolences, Zhao Yue, who returned to his hometown, said: "Some people should repay their debts when they are blessed." Otherwise, they still think that they are naïve and eyeless, and they think that no one can clean up them who are leisurely and proud and rich in the stable capital. ”

Zhao Gonglian was still in Qingzhou at the time, and sent a telegram back to his younger brother and said with a smile: "Then let's take Liang Shicheng as a knife." It's useless, keeping it will only get in the way. Over the years, he has worked so hard for the development of our empire, desperately harming the foundation of the Song Dynasty, and there is a palace that does not have a lot of expenses, but he persists and desperately searches for gold and silver treasures, and silently accumulates so much for us. ”

As a result, Liang Shicheng died tragically in the middle of Meizizi's adopted son. The wealth that was seized, whether it was the eastern city or the northern city, was taken away.

Yang Lin and Shi Qian, who were lurking in the capital, led their secret killer organization to raid Liang Shicheng's two industries at the same time overnight. Shi Qian sneaked into the kitchen to take chronic medicine first, and after a few hours, he brought down everyone in the Liang Mansion in Dongcheng. The killers then carefully set up the murder scene, and then calmly looted the property and used the subsequent days and nights to move away.

As for the North City, it's even better.

The people who caught these two places were used as tools to break the mechanism in the secret room, and after they succeeded, the corpses were thrown in the secret room to enjoy the treatment of Liang Shicheng's mausoleum, and they were worthy of death. Then, after marveling at Liang Shicheng's amazing ability to loot treasures, he calmly emptied the hidden treasures and transported them away in a box carriage as Liang Shicheng usually does.

The people around have long been accustomed to the frequent traffic of this family, and no one pays attention to this, not knowing that something has happened to these two families.

The entrance to the secret room in Liang Shicheng's residence was filled with the sediment mechanism prepared by Liang Shicheng in advance, and then filled with thick cement to fill it thoroughly, and then covered the stone slab that disguised it as a cement floor to cover the entrance of the tunnel, and the gap was completely sealed with cement, so that it became a complete real cement floor.

After a few days, it was found that the two families were gone, and they didn't know when they left, and they didn't know where they were, and even if they came in to check and occupy the place, they couldn't notice anything unusual.

The situation is chaotic, people's hearts are uneasy, no one cares about strange neighbors, people move in Tokyo at any time, these two families are not old neighbors in the first place, there is no contact, the neighborhood relationship is extremely weak, and even have no good feelings for each other, and no one cares about leaving suddenly without any signs, and there is nothing unusual.

In this way, this is not even a missing case, it has nothing to do with the murder case, and it has nothing to do with the strange bloody case of Liang Shicheng.

No one pays attention to this anymore.

The old eunuch and others hidden deep in the fortified secret room have become secrets underground, and perhaps accidentally digging them out after a thousand years will become another interesting subject for historians.

Kaifeng Mansion died of sorrow.

couldn't solve the case, and wanted to end the case with his adopted son's unrighteous rebellion against Liang Shicheng, but he was blocked by the words "repentance" and a small number of words, and he couldn't explain what "repentance" implied, so he couldn't explain to the emperor who was getting more and more suspicious. But God knows what the hell it is.

For Xue Bi, he naturally didn't care about the bad luck of Kaifeng Mansion.

He couldn't help but clap his hands after being shocked. Liang Shicheng, a thief, should have died a long time ago, died well, died happily, if he had died a long time ago, maybe the Great Song Dynasty would not have fallen to the worst it is today. Kaifeng Mansion Yin Xu Bingzhe is not a good thing, and he is also a damn good, it is good to die.

However, Zhao Gonglian threw his hand and went home to farm, which made Xue Bi, who already had a premonition that the Great Song Dynasty was not good, even more shocked and frustrated.

He didn't even bother to inquire, he could guess what terrible consequences Da Song would fall into.

At this point, he also understood why the government around Liangshan and the top bigwigs like Zhang Bangchang in Bai Shizhong would be so happy to let the people of Liangshan be greedy and blackmail, and why Zhang Bangchang in Bai Shizhong would intercept him at the city gate regardless of the rules.

Without Liang Shicheng in the palace, of course they were afraid of accidents.

He also understood the reason why he always felt abnormal in the palace, why no eunuch forcibly intercepted them halfway through the palace and went elsewhere first, and why the emperor had such an attitude when he listened to the report on the situation in Liangshan.

It's ridiculous.

Zhao Gonglian is no longer an official, he has no power and no power, and he is finally no longer a threat to the imperial court, not a stumbling block for the ministers to advance, but these people are even more afraid of Zhao Gonglian.

Zhao Gonglian is not talented.

Less than three days after Liang Shicheng's death, the news of Zhao Gonglian's return to farming was urgently reported to the capital from Qingzhou, Cangbei, six hundred miles.

In fact, as early as when Zhao Gonglian complained to the emperor about the summer disaster in the middle of the song, the Cangbei and Cangzhou governments already knew that Zhao Gonglian was afraid that he really had the heart to leave. Because Zhao Gonglian has handed over all government and military affairs to the general judge and control Gao Jiguang since then, he ignores official affairs and only plays the role of a stamping machine.

But Zhao's resignation was still sudden.

When the Song Dynasty was not the Wei and Jin dynasties, you didn't want to be an official, and you could leave in style with a seal. With the approval of the imperial court, the relevant personnel have taken over and settled the official business, and there is no problem, you can leave.

Otherwise it is a sin.

But Zhao Gonglian didn't care about that, and suddenly handed over the prefect's seal to the general judgment, and handed over the resignation to the general judgment and Gao Jiguang to the imperial court on his behalf, and left.

The Zhao Mansion moved his family, and all the things that could be removed from the residence except for the common things were removed, and not even a bowl was left, obviously determined not to go back.

The second lady Xiaodou Sprouts mother and son, Hua Rong's wife Cui Shi and son, and the few male and female miscellaneous servants of the Hou Mansion, together with the east and west, all left the back house of the prefect's yamen under the escort of the heavily armed 200 cavalry guards, and went straight to the south city gate with a rumbling head.

Hou Ye left, alarming the unsuspecting people along the street.

There are smart or well-informed people who feel bad, and their hearts are tense when they see the formation of the Hou Mansion. Someone shouted: "Where is Master Hou going?" Do you have to forsake our people with all your heart? ”

Suddenly, as if a frying pot had been fried, the people were all panicked, and they couldn't care about the business and livelihood in their hands, and they all came around crying and calling for Hou Ye not to leave.

In this regard, Zhao Gonglian, who rode a horse and led the team in front of the people, could only apologize to the people, saying that he was no longer a marquis, and all the official positions and titles on his body had resigned, and the politics of the Great Song Dynasty had nothing to do with him from now on. He's just a grass guy who wants to go home as soon as possible, so please understand.
