Chapter 708: A Few Families Are Happy and a Few Are Sad
Zhang Shou was just because Ah Liu said that he would hide in the Tiangong Workshop, and temporarily thought of the secret passage and secret room at home, if it was not one-way but two-way traffic, there might be hidden dangers, so he mentioned it to Ah Liu in passing. He didn't expect that he would really say a prophecy, and someone from the other end of the secret passage started his idea here.
However, it turned out that even if he didn't remember that stubble, the traps set up by Hua Qi were enough to stop the enemy - a total of six people came in from the exit of the secret passage, four were killed and two were seriously injured, this is ironclad evidence!
Although there are many technical houses like Guan Qiu and Ye Mengqiu and Yang Zhan in the Heavenly Workshop, there are still many strong and powerful craftsmen, and in addition, they were probably ordered by the emperor to mix seven with sand, and among the twenty or thirty people, it is estimated that there are many people who have the power to protect themselves. In the face of a few seriously injured people, a group of strong men picked up a hammer tool, and probably no one could please them.
Therefore, instead of gasping with palpitations like Wu's, he asked thoughtfully, "Are the people and things in the Heavenly Workshop intact?" ”
"I've pulled everyone out." Ah Liu said very seriously, "Yang Zhan refuses, I will carry him out directly." ”
Thinking about Yang Qishao, who starved to death and didn't come out of the house, Zhang Shou only felt that Ah Liu's disposal was simply resolute. And next...... Next, of course, he didn't need to ask, there was such a negative example as Yang Qishao, even if others regarded the underground workshop as their home, they would definitely withdraw obediently, without saying a word.
And although An Lu on the side said that he was in charge of the other end, he could see that Ah Liu was still flat and straightforward, and he didn't say much, so he could only say instead of Ah Liu: "The sixth master transferred all the utensils in the Tiangong Workshop to a separate secret room and locked them, and he didn't suffer any damage. After the sixth master captured the two seriously injured guys, he settled down and went out through the exit in person. ”
"That Jimin Charity Hall is now under the control of our Zhang Yuan, and no one has escaped."
Didn't run away? That's literally...... Or what does that mean? Zhang Shou was very confused, but there were two words of calmness on his face with a capital letter: "Oh, no one ran away?" What's going on there? ”
An Lu saw Zhang Shou looking at him with a smile, and Ah Liu also looked at him, he didn't mean to explain in person at all, he couldn't help crying and laughing, but he had to take on the task of explaining: "That Jimin Shantang, there is a total of one chief manager, four stewards, more than ten miscellaneous servants, a total of one or two hundred children have been adopted, and they are divided into men and women to take care of them, so they have hired about a dozen women to take care of them. ”
"When the sixth master went out, most of those children were asleep, and it was difficult to determine whether they were drugged or they went to bed early. The steward was tied up in his room, four stewards, two drugged and unconscious, and two were the second of the intruders. Seven or eight of the handymen were locked up in the house, and the rest were among the infiltrators. In other words, it was clearly premeditated. ”
"By the way, when I went to reinforce the sixth master from the entrance of the passage later, I happened to see that there were still tools left at the end of the passage, among which there were special pickaxes, and the steel mouth was very worn. Then, I asked from one of the captives that one of the infiltrators had been in charge of the previous fill-in blockade, so I had done it at that time so that I could re-excavate it later. ”
Speaking of this, An Lu suddenly paused, and saw that Wu's face was angry, while Zhang Shou leaned forward slightly, his face was extremely solemn, and he knew that Zhang Shou understood the bit of greasyness.
"Childe, I'm afraid the celebrant can't get out of this matter!"
Zhang Shou saw Wu's frightened expression, so he immediately comforted: "Mother, don't think so much, there is no such thing as a black sheep in the celebrant supervisor, there is nothing to make a fuss about, even if the emperor has only cleaned it up once before, it is inevitable that someone will slip through the net." Fortunately, Hua Qiye had already laid a lot of traps near the blocked exit, and as soon as the others came out, they directly bumped into it. ”
"Those traps may be really powerful, and they do play a role this time, but what if Ah Shou finally found those skilled craftsmen and talented people, what if he accidentally bumped into them before? Isn't it in vain? ”
Seeing that the Wu family complained again and again, but with an uneasy expression, obviously having some doubts about this house, Ah Liu added: "I told Guan Qiu that the back piece is a forbidden area, and those who approach it will die." ”
The young man said this murderous sentence in a very flat tone, and then said casually: "Warning first, if anyone does not listen, he will die." ”
Wu was choked by Ah Liu's words. And this time, even Zhang Shou couldn't help but rejoice - you know, some people in this world certainly follow the rules, but there are also some people who are curious babies, and they want to go where they say they shouldn't go, if they accidentally lose one or two like Guan Qiu Yang Zhan because of this situation, then he will cry to death!
He could only admonish with a serious face: "Ah Liu, you must inform Guan Qiu and those people about this incident, so that they all know what can be done and what must not be done." lest anyone disobey you! ”
And Ah Liu's reaction to these words was very calm, but it was simply true, but Wu, who was already frightened today, couldn't help it: "Ah Shou, do you want people to continue to use that secret room as a workshop?" It's too dangerous, even if the exit is blocked again this time, what will happen next time? I'm not afraid of 10,000, I'm just afraid of what happens! ”
"Mother, I understand your worries, so this time, I want to exit the Jimin Charity Hall."
Zhang Shou smiled and said his decision: "Since the good hall of the celebrant is either hiding dirt or being used as a cover by some people, isn't it natural for this place to compensate me as a victim?" I will personally come forward to ask the emperor to come to the master of ceremonies and eunuchs, and I will not be stingy with a mere Jimin Charity Hall! ”
That's weird!
An Lu almost burst out of his mouth with these two words. You must know that it is not easy for other parts of Gyeonggi and Xuanfu Datong to open a charity hall, but it is not easy to have such a large charity hall in the capital, and to conceal the connection with the celebrant and supervisor! Zhang Shou simply wants to gnaw a piece of meat from the other party!
What he didn't expect was that Zhang Shou actually ordered another thing before he got his hands on Shantang: "Don't think that the original manager and a few stewards and miscellaneous servants were tied up or drugged, so it really has nothing to do with last night's incident." Ah Liu, you and An Lu will personally screen it, I don't care if you are threatening or bluffing, in short, how much can you ask. ”
"As for my ......" Zhang Shouxiao glanced at Wu, who was clearly worried, and he said: "I went back to the study to write a note, although I am very sorry for the students, but I can't treat it as if nothing happened, I have to complain to the superiors." Of course, I won't write that request in the song. "That has to be to "cry" with the emperor in private!
As long as the Wu family doesn't go out, she doesn't care about other things, so she naturally nodded again and again at this time. And when Zhang Shou called Ah Liu and An Lu to go out together, she suddenly remembered that Zhu Ying, who was said to have gone out of the city to pick up the eldest prince, couldn't help but shout again: "Ah Shou, if you can, send someone to the Zhao Guogong Mansion to ask Ying Ying how she is doing." ”
"Our family is still in the thief, I'm afraid of her ......"
Finding that Wu Shi stopped abruptly halfway through what he said, Zhang Shou didn't know if she was worried that the crow's mouth was right, so he immediately turned around and smiled: "I know, I'll send someone to inquire in a while." But don't worry, Yingying has been the luckiest person since she was a child, and she will always be lucky in the future! ”
Although Wu is far from being old, she is inevitably superstitious because she has not received much education, and at this time Zhang Shou emphasized Zhu Ying's good luck, and she was immediately relieved when she thought of Zhu Ying's life. When she saw Zhang Shou leave, she couldn't help but chant countless sounds of Amitabha, but after thinking about it, she still didn't dare to leave home rashly at this time to burn incense and worship the Buddha.
If she encounters any changes, it is still a trivial matter, and it will cause Zhang Shou and her family to be busy, but it will add to the chaos!
And Zhang Shou went out of the courtyard and did not instruct Ah Liu and An Lu more, but sent them to do the thing he had just ordered. Then, he didn't go to the Tiangong Workshop to check what was going on, but first went to comfort his employees and guests.
Of course, the employees signed the contract like Guan Qiu, and Yang Zhan stayed because of the exchange conditions, and then made a contract, as for the guests, including Zou Ming and the other three people, Fang Qing and Song Juren, as well as Ye Mengqiu and the other four people who have been obsessed with the utensils in the Tiangong Workshop recently, and often go around in Jiuzhangtang and here, and happened to stay here last night.
Because last night's fight all happened quickly and ended faster, the guests were not awakened, and their emotions were relatively stable, only Yang Zhan, who often stayed up all night, was very disappointed about the temporary closure of the Tiangong Workshop. As for the thieves who infiltrated and the behind-the-scenes instigators and other questions, although some people asked, I heard Zhang Shou say that it still needs to be carefully investigated, and it is not certain for the time being, so no one continues to ask.
After all, there have been a lot of things in the capital recently, and there are too many headless public cases.
And when Zhang Shou finished appeasing the people, returned to the study, and used his now finally clear-eyed, but still lacking Lingxiu's calligraphy, as well as the flat and straightforward writing, to brew this letter, in the early morning, the streets of the capital are just like the accident in Zhang Yuan last night, and they have experienced the taste of the autumn wind sweeping the leaves, and I don't know how many people are frightened.
From the small household of Pengmen, to the famous embroidery household, from the court of the official eunuch, to the reckless house, when a group of officers and soldiers roared through the street, it was only fright, but when someone broke into the door of their house, the kind of anger and despair was the same.
When an old waiter, who had been sitting in his study all night, heard the growing movement outside, and it was clear that someone had broken into his house, his face fell silent after panicking, and he resolutely poured all the potions in a porcelain bottle into his mouth. When a large group of people and horses broke in, they saw a corpse that was bleeding and breathless.
Of course, such extremes are not everywhere. At least, although the four major soldiers and horses of the East, West, North and Middle Schools, who were ordered to act, arrested people according to the list, and the soldiers and horses who led the team were cold, what they were most afraid of was that they were patrolling the city and looking for trouble afterwards. The only thing that is fortunate is that there are really few people who resist or beg for death, but they have seen a lot of people who shout wrongs and curse repeatedly.
And the Confucian scholar who was woken up by the girl in the middle of the night was honestly afraid, so he didn't have Zhang Shou at least enough to sleep this luck.
Knowing that there were endless galloping horses outside, it seemed that there were soldiers and horses passing through, he was naturally shocked and angry, although he knew that the risk was very high, but he still sent a fierce entourage as soon as possible, went out to intercept a team of soldiers and horses on the street, and asked what was going on. Fortunately, what he feared most did not happen, and his aura as a cabinet scholar still made the entourage bring back important information.
Last night, there were twenty palace people in the palace who set fire to it, but fortunately it was not lit long ago. In addition, the Zhao State Mansion, the Qin State Mansion, the Chu State Mansion, and Wu Ge Lao Zhang Yu and other places, all had thieves intending to infiltrate, and as a result, several vigilant families were either captured or repulsed. And what's even more incredible is that the banner of these thieves is precisely to support the great prince!
Confucius almost fainted when he heard this banner, after all, thinking that he was also a supporter of the elder system, although he did not desperately shout that he should be a great prince like some officials who have now been swept into the corner, but urged the emperor to set up the East Palace as soon as possible, implying that there is a grandson, why hesitate, this attitude has still been done.
The eldest prince was expelled from the clan, which was enough of a headache for him, but he didn't dare to put all the bets on the gentleness and benevolence of the three princes, regardless of the previous suspicions, so he and Zhang Shou fought in public at the banquet, which was also to reveal Zhang Shou's true face, and to kick such a guy who was particularly fond of the three princes out of the East Palace lecture team, and then stuffed it into his own people.
But now the person he recommended has certainly become the East Palace's lecture, but the most trusted person of the three princes is still Zhang Shou, and now this farce of supporting the eldest prince is like a slap in the face.
Confucius didn't dare to send people to meet other good ministers at night, and after thinking about it, he thought of his cousin next door, Master Kong Jiu, who was in front of Dr. Taichang. Fortunately, it was a close relative, and the door to the wall was opened, so he sent someone over to inform him, even if his dream was disturbed in the middle of the night, Master Kong Jiu still hurried over.
However, the brothers discussed it for half a night, but they still couldn't figure out what to do. Of course, it is not without countermeasures, that is, as if nothing had happened, but because of the message that Master Kong Jiu brought Zhu Tingfang seriously injured and dying before, Scholar Confucius has already instructed the imperial history book on his side, Dao is an indispensable person for the Five Cities Soldiers and Horses, and he requests to send someone to act as soon as possible.
And this happened suddenly at night, although I don't know who is in the middle of the Five Cities Terracotta Division, but the previous book on the imperial history seems very prescient. If you can replace the Five Cities Terracotta Division with your own people, it will at least be a harvest.
Seeing that the sky was getting brighter, although he was extremely sleepy, Confucius still cheered up and said, "Today is still the morning dynasty, and it is time to wash and change clothes." What happened, when I turned back and entered the DPRK, I could always find out. Didn't you say before that there were still people in Taichang Temple who said that Concubine Jing shouldn't be given a name? Remember to find an opportunity to denounce this person for hypocrisy, but remember, don't go to the book. ”
Master Kong Jiu nodded knowingly: "Big brother, don't worry, I understand, it will look cool when I am in the book, but scolding in public will show that I know how to be measured." Seeing that Confucius nodded and was about to say something more, there was a sudden commotion outside, followed by a relative who broke in in a panic: "Master, there is a team of soldiers and horses surrounding our gate!" ”
