The father-in-law's first day in office seemed to be going well, he had been in the officialdom for so many years, and Tang Ning was relieved of his ability.

Zhao Xiancheng was only promoted by half a level and took over his position as the commander of Ping'an County, if he could also be transferred by His Majesty, any adjutant of Shaoyin or something, with the tacit understanding that the two of them had cooperated for many years, he should be invincible.

It's a pity that this kind of thing depends on luck, and at present, it seems that there is no such possibility.

So far, their family has completely gained a firm foothold in Beijing.

Although compared with those big families who have decades of experience and have mixed roots in Beijing, the background is still a little thin, but the background cannot be generalized, no matter how strong the party is, no matter how dense the relationship network is, there is no security with the big tree of the emperor behind it.

Towards the end of the year, the major shops under the Tang Dynasty, because of the Sixteen Wei Dabi, entered the field of vision of the people of Beijing, and their sales doubled.

Tang Ning and Tang Yaoyao discussed, and made certain adjustments to the industrial structure, and the biggest change was to select the newspaper from Tang Renzhai and set up a separate Jingshi Daily.

This organization is not profitable, if you count the labor costs, there is even a certain degree of loss, but this is also a strategic loss, as the first official news agency of Chen Guo, the significance of this is not so thousands of hundreds of taels of silver can be measured.

Approaching the end of the year, there is nothing important to publish in the newspaper, and the major officials are paying close attention to public security, and in the past two days, many people's homes have been stolen, including many of the housekeepers' mansions, the families of the powerful, and the father-in-law specially mentioned it yesterday, so that he reminded the broad masses of people in Beijing in the newspaper to raise their awareness of prevention and do a good job in preventing theft.

The Ministry of Rites, the errand of the year-end festival was completely carried by the Ancestral Department Division, Liu Jin of the Ancestral Department got up earlier than the chicken in the past two days, slept later than the dog, wore the stars and the moon, worked hard, and was busy and didn't even have time to eat, but he still didn't forget to read the newspaper every day.

Although if something big happened to the capital, the major officials were often the first to learn about it, but how can the rumors be more convincing than black and white.

What disappointed him was that nothing major had happened in the past few days, especially Liu Shilang, who was red every day, and it seemed that the old lady had a sixtieth birthday every day.

However, he is still firm in his belief, good is rewarded, evil is rewarded, it is not that he does not report, the time has not come, before dawn, there is always a period of extreme darkness, so many days he has survived, he doesn't care about this day or two.

After all, winter is coming, will spring be far away?

There is nothing major in the newspaper, but it is mentioned that many people in Beijing have been stolen recently, and the thieves are extremely rampant, and after stealing things, they will leave a plum blossom at the scene, claiming to be a strange thief of a plum branch......

I don't know if this Zhimei can rob the house in addition to robbing money, if he can go to Liu's house and rob the evil woman in his house, he will have a better life in the future.

It's really exciting to think about.

……

Strange thief a plum, is a thief who suddenly appeared in Beijing in the past few days, he does not steal the people, only steal officials, only steal the powerful, I don't know why, no matter how tightly those people's defenses, for a branch of plum, are described as false, but in a few days, there are more than ten families stolen, only a plum blossom left at the scene, indicating their identity.

The Jingzhao Mansion has issued a sea fishing document, if someone can catch this thief, a reward of 1,000 taels of silver, but unfortunately this thief has disappeared, and it is difficult to find his traces.

Late at night, in a high gate in Beijing.

Shou Quanbo took Xinna's concubine, walked into the room, and turned back to his subordinates and instructed: "Send more people to patrol the warehouse at night, don't let those thieves come in and steal things." ”

The guard in the palace immediately said: "Yes, master! ”

Shou Quanbo nodded with satisfaction, walked into the room with the concubine in his arms, and just peeled it into a little white sheep, covered it with a quilt, and was about to do a big job, when a gong suddenly sounded in the courtyard.

"Catch the thief, catch the thief!"

"It's a plum, catch him!"

"Don't let him run!"

……

Shou Quanbo was in a tense and exciting moment, and was startled by the sudden sound of the gong, and the whole person trembled twice, and he felt bored for a while.

In the courtyard, the guards of Shouquanbo's Mansion watched a figure jump up the wall, and disappeared with a few taps, holding a torch in one hand and a plum blossom in the other, standing in the courtyard with an unwilling look on his face.

Shou Quanbo got dressed, hurriedly came out of the room, and asked, "Did you catch it, did you catch it?" ”

The guard lowered his head and said, "Master, I accidentally let him run away just now!" ”

"Rubbish!" Shou Quanbo angrily kicked a few people and said loudly: "It's all waste!" ”

His chest rose and fell, and his breath was short: "I can't even catch a single thief, what's the use of me raising you!" ”

At this time, one of the guards trotted over with a torch and said, "Sir, there is something on the ground." ”

Shou Quanbo frowned and said, "What is it?" ”

The guard picked up a pamphlet from the ground and said, "It looks like it fell from a plum." ”

Shou Quanbo returned to the room, opened the booklet, and saw that there were some words densely written on it, and when he looked closer, he couldn't help but be stunned.

I saw that the above records are all rich and noble families in Beijing, that's it, even each family has what precious treasures are recorded very clearly, Wang Yushi's collection of Su Shi's original post, Mi Fu's true handiwork flowed to Liu Shilang's house, there is a lot of silver in the family of the head of the household, all of which are embezzled, and he did not dare to report to the official if he stole it......

There are dozens of these messages, and some of them have a "√" on them, Shou Quanbo thought about it carefully, it seems that they are the families who have been stolen in the past few days.

In these years, are the preparations for being a thief so detailed, sure enough, no one can succeed casually, and it is strange that Xia Yizhimei can become the number one thief in Beijing, it turns out that he has also put in so much hard work in private.

Shou Quanbo flipped through it casually, and suddenly a piece of paper fell out of the booklet.

He picked it up and looked at it, and said in surprise: "Gift list, what gift list?" ”

After reading it, he stood in place and muttered: "Where is this sixty birthday, this is clearly a money grabbing banquet......"

muttered, he always felt that something was wrong, and when he looked up again, he couldn't help but gasp, "This, this ......, where did their money come from?" ”

A seven-grade petty official, or the clear stream of the Yushitai, the annual salary is not more than 100 taels, and a congratulatory gift is often 1,22,000 taels......

The above list is all officials who participated in the 60th birthday of Liu Shilang's mother, and these people are ------ people from the Tang family and the Duanwang faction.

"I sent it...... I didn't expect to catch the thief with such a big harvest, Shou Quanbo looked happy and said: "Quick, prepare a sedan chair and go to King Kang's mansion!" ”

……

Natural residence, Su Mei took off her night clothes, and said dissatisfiedly: "What is a plum, can't you take a nice name?" ”

Tang Ning thought for a while and said, "How about a smile that captivates the city and a smile that captivates the country, and is charming and charming, and is super cute?" ”

Su Mei waved her hand and said, "Forget it, a plum is a plum." ”

She threw her night clothes aside and said, "You are really stingy, Liu Feng just impeached your father-in-law once, and you took revenge on him like this......"

"It's not revenge." Tang Ning corrected: "If he really has a clean sleeve, naturally nothing will happen, if he is not, we will eliminate harm for the people, representing justice." ”

Su Mei shook her head and said, "Even if he doesn't have a clean sleeve, those who give gifts are afraid that they will hate him to death...... they say that you are careful, and it is not wrong at all." ”

"It's not a cautious eye, it's protecting the people I care about." Tang Ning looked at her and said, "If anyone bullies you, I promise to make his fate as miserable as Liu Feng." ”

Su Mei said: "Am I the person you care about?" ”

Tang Ning looked into her eyes and asked rhetorically, "What do you say?" ”

"Okay, okay, got it......" Su Mei showed a charming smile on her face, waved her hand and said, "I'm going to sleep, you can go back quickly." ”

Tang Ning sat on the edge of the bed and said, "Anyway, there is no curfew these days, you can sleep, and I will leave when you fall asleep." ”

Every day, she had to play the role of a thief, Tang Ning was a little reluctant to go, so he took the initiative to coax her to sleep, and finally coaxed her to sleep, Tang Ning withdrew from the room and walked out of the natural residence.

"You ran out every night for the past two days, and you came here to meet Su Fox privately?"

A voice suddenly came from behind him, Tang Ning turned his head and saw Tang Yaoyao standing in the dark, his eyes shining with a dangerous light.

Rong Xiaorong said

Ah, it's even more finished, on the last day of 2018, debt-free and light, these days have been faster to prostrate faster, ask for a monthly pass for January in advance......
