After a short time, Wang Yue hurriedly walked up to the hall and knelt down on one knee to salute, "See Your Highness!" ”

"Say it! What urgent information? Guo Song asked lightly.

"Does Your Highness remember the last time you asked the lowly to investigate the hidden enemy forces?"

Guo Song suddenly became a little interested, and said with a smile: "Could it be that you have found something?" ”

Wang Yue sighed, "I only found one eyebrow, and it is far from the eyebrow." ”

After speaking, he presented a confession, "Your Highness, please take a look!" ”

Guo Song took the confession and read it carefully, frowned and said, "What is the background of this Tangzhou Chamber of Commerce?" What does it have to do with Tangzhou, Hebei? ”

"I don't know what the humble position is, this person knows very little information, he only knows that there is a steward who contacts him every month, but he doesn't know what the steward's name is and what he does, his task is to earn money and hand it over, and then develop ten members every year, the name of this Tangzhou Guild is still the steward inadvertently leaked."

"So what does this man do, and how did you catch him?"

"This person's name is Yang Pingshan, a native of Xinfeng County, about forty years old, is a businessman, specializing in buying goods for people and responsible for transportation, without any background, he was originally a small businessman, three years ago, someone gave him 5,000 yuan, and his business began to grow bigger......."

"Wait!"

Guo Song interrupted Wang Yue's words, "Who gave him the capital of 5,000 guan?" ”

"It's the Tangzhou Chamber of Commerce, the lowly post specially investigated, the government has not registered this chamber of commerce, and no businessman has heard of it, it must have a separate name, but the lowly post can't be found for the time being."

Guo Song nodded, "You go on!" ”

Wang Yue continued: "Since the beginning of the previous year, the Tangzhou Chamber of Commerce has given this person the task of developing ten members every year, and the condition of these members is that they must hate the imperial court, or be orphans, such as party members, this Yang Pingshan has developed six party members last year, and four people who have lost their land because of us. ”

"Losing the land because of us?"

Guo Song asked puzzledly, "Is there such a person?" ”

Wang Yue nodded, "There are indeed such people, and there are quite a few, when Zhu Zhu rewarded the manor in Guanzhong?" Ordinary farmers actually don't get much of it? Mainly the generals, officials and their relatives and friends under Zhu Zhu, seventy percent of the land fell into their hands? And then we re-inventoried the land? These people were all deprived of their land, and these people have always hated the imperial court. ”

"I see!"

Guo Song suddenly? "What does it mean to develop membership, which is to gather all those who hate the court? Is that what it means? ”

"Your Highness is right? It is precisely this meaning that this Yang Shanping was arrested because he developed a member who disappeared last year, but he told Yang Shanping's name to his wife before he disappeared? His wife went to the government to complain? The Xinfeng County Order notified us of the situation, and we caught this Yang Shanping. ”

"Tangzhou Chamber of Commerce?"

Guo Song took a few steps and said to himself: "Very interesting, which way is this?" What do they want to do? A coup d'état or kill me Guo someone? ”

"The humble position plans to use this Yang Shanping to fish out his steward first, and then follow the vine!"

Guo Song shook his head? "You're going in the wrong direction, and they're already on alert? Won't give you another chance, should you use Yang Shanping to fish out the people who want to kill him? Grab the killer and grope up from the killer again. ”

"Ignorance, understood!"

.........

Wang Yue went in a hurry? Guo Song returned to his study? He just sat down? His wife Xue Tao brought him a cup of ginseng tea, pointed to the window glass and said with a smile: "Husband found out, at night, the window glass becomes a mirror." ”

Guo Song smiled slightly: "Isn't it easy to make glass into a mirror?" The back is coated with a layer of silver liquid, which is a mirror, which is much easier to use than the copper realm. ”

"That.... Can you give it a try? Xue Tao asked expectantly.

"Wait a little longer, when the glass is made in large quantities and medium-sized people can afford to install glass, then you can consider other uses."

"Husband, what else is there to do?" Xue Tao asked curiously.

"There are many other uses, such as making utensils, making lantern covers, etc., which I can't think of for a while, and it is not something I should consider for the skilled craftsmen to consider later."

Xue Tao smiled and said: "Actually, I am more concerned about the glass than the city, tomorrow he will start the imperial examination, if he is admitted to the Jinshi, will the husband make him an official?" ”

Guo Song shook his head, "He can be admitted to the Jinshi with his ability to bring glory to his parents, but it is impossible to confer an official rank again, and after the imperial examination, I am also ready to stop him from going to the newspaper hall to do things, let him enter the political hall to observe, and let the Xiangguo teach him." ”

"I wanted to say it a long time ago, it's not safe to go to the newspaper, my husband always has an enemy, if the enemy knows about it, just like Brother Minqiu, then I really can't imagine it."

Guo Song's heart moved, but his wife reminded him, and he hurriedly said to his wife: "Go and find Minqiu, I want to ask about her brother." ”

Xue Tao nodded, and told the maid to find Minqiu, and after a while, Minqiu came to the study quickly, and she found that the eldest sister was also there, and the joy in her heart suddenly dissipated.

"Sit down!"

Guo Song smiled and asked the two to sit down, and he said to Minqiu: "I want to ask about your brother's murder, I don't know much about some details, you tell me." ”

Minqiu's brother has been killed for a year, and her sister-in-law has remarried for more than half a year, Minqiu's heart has long been as calm as water, since her husband wants to know, she will also tell the truth.

"I originally listened to what my sister-in-law said, and then my niece told me that there was a discrepancy in what my sister-in-law said, after the eldest brother went to Taiyuan, he became very low-key, not at all like the high-profile in Chang'an, he lived in the mansion and lived in a simple house, but the relationship between the sister-in-law and a doctor was a little ambiguous, this is what I guessed from Xiaoqin's words, and then the eldest brother found out, he was furious and drove the doctor away, and then a month later, when the eldest brother went to the shop, he was killed."

"How did you kill it? Do you know exactly? Guo Song asked.

"I didn't ask at the time, but later Xiaoqin said that it was an arrow shot from the back, and when her father carried it back, her whole body turned black, and she quickly swallowed her breath, and now that I think about it, it should be a poisoned arrow."

"And then? Your sister-in-law remarried, did she remarry that doctor? ”

Min Qiu shook her head, "I don't know, I feel disgusted when I hear about her, and I don't want to know about it at all." ”

Min Qiu suddenly reacted, "What does the husband mean to say, it was the doctor who killed my eldest brother?" ”

"I didn't say that, but I always felt suspicious, maybe it was really my enemy's doing, so I wanted to find out this enemy."

Xue Tao next to him suddenly became nervous, "Husband, will he keep an eye on the city?" ”

Guo Song smiled and comforted her: "Don't worry! The city will be fine, he has guards to protect it! ”

"But... Brother Minqiu also has guards by his side! ”

Guo Song didn't know how to explain that Brother Minqiu's guards were invited from the martial arts hall at his own expense, and with his stinginess, he probably didn't want to spend more money to hire good guards.

"It's different, the guards around Cheng'er are all the top masters of the Jinwei Mansion, there are a total of five people who are close to protect, and there are internal guards monitoring on the periphery, there are at least thirty people protecting him, he will be fine."

Xue Tao breathed a sigh of relief, and at this time, Min Qiu said, "Why don't I ask Xiaoqin, she should know who her mother remarried." ”

Guo Song nodded, "You go and ask her!" ”

Minqiu got up and went, Xue Tao knew her husband very well, if it wasn't for a big deal, her husband wouldn't be so profound.

She asked in a low voice, "Husband, what happened?" ”

Guo Song thought about it, he should still tell his wife and let them be vigilant.

He tried his best to say in a calm tone: "Wang Yue recently discovered a secret organization, maybe he wanted to rebel, or he wanted to assassinate me, etc., and now this organization is very hidden, I am a little suspicious that the death of Brother Min Qiu is related to them, so I want to find clues from the murder of Brother Min Qiu." ”

A trace of horror flashed in Xue Tao's eyes, "Husband, will my parents and brothers do it?" ”

"Probably not, if they had this intention, they would have done it a long time ago, if Brother Minqiu really did it, I guess it also involves making money, this organization needs a lot of money to expand its power, of course, it is also for me to see."

Guo Song took two steps with his hands in his hand, and said: "I will strengthen the protection of your parents and brothers, and in addition, you should try not to go out during this time, especially to restrain Xiaowei and not allow her to run around." ”

"I'll go tell her now."

Xue Tao thought that her daughter was going to buy fat powder tomorrow, and she was immediately anxious, so she quickly left her husband's study and went to find her daughter.

"Tangzhou Chamber of Commerce!"

Guo Song looked out the window with his hands and said to himself, "I'm afraid the key is in this Tang character." ”

Guo Song returned to the desk and took out the Li family tree from the drawer, which is the royal family tree that branches down from Li Yuan, the most spectacular is Li Shimin's lineage, but after experiencing the Anshi Rebellion, the Jingyuan Rebellion and the Eunuch Disaster, Li Shimin's branch is only a few people, almost all of them are children, all under their control, but ......"

Guo Song's eyes looked at Li Jiancheng and Li Yuanji's branches again, there were more than a dozen people under these two branches, basically none of them were in Chang'an, if his expectations were good, some of these dozen people must be controlled by the Tangzhou Chamber of Commerce.

At this time, the door creaked open, and Minqiu walked in quickly, knowing that the eldest sister was no longer in the study, so she suddenly got into her husband's arms and began to be coquettish.

"How long has it been since the husband has spoiled the slave family, don't you want to think about the benefits of the slave family?"

Guo Song was so flirtatious by her that he hugged her waist and whispered in her ear: "Tonight!" I'll go to you. ”

Min Qiu suddenly smiled, and said coquettishly: "The slave family is going to serve the husband now!" ”

She was about to squat down, but Guo Song hurriedly grabbed her, "Let's talk about business first, how are you asking?" ”

Min Qiu nodded, gritted his teeth and said, "Husband Jun guessed right, the slut's new husband is that doctor!" ”
