Chapter 727: Investigation
What, did the spies of the Qiang Kingdom really say that? Sun Yu frowned and stared at Zhao Mingsheng nervously, "I actually came to invite you, they really met with stitches." ”
"I told you, you must help me. Although I really can't protect you in the current form, don't worry, this problem will definitely be solved soon. ”
Sun Yu said, patted his chest, and expressed his determination to Zhao Mingsheng, "I will definitely let my father agree with you." It's not your fault in the first place, it's that they have to put the mistake on your head. ”
"Hmm. If you understand this, I'm already content. Zhao Mingsheng chuckled lightly and waved his hand, "Now, what we need to do is to find out the truth of this matter." For that, I may need to look into it. ”
"Really, do you want to go over now? The other party will definitely not let you get the news so easily. Sun Yu looked at Zhao Mingsheng with some concern, "Although I also want to solve this problem as soon as possible, I don't want you to be in danger, so." ”
Zhao Mingsheng shook his head and patted Sun Yu's shoulder again, "You know my character. What's more, it's something that only I can do, right? ”
"This." Sun Yu bit his lip, but there was no way to deny it. In this situation, no matter who is asked to do things, there is definitely no way.
It's not that their ability is not good, it's just that except for Zhao Mingsheng, there is no trustworthy person in the current imperial court.
The new law listed by Zhao Mingsheng before included some new capable people, but that was only a preliminary entry, and there was no in-depth understanding.
And those officials before were only able to be instructed by the emperor, and this time about Zhao Mingsheng, maybe they did it. There really is no way to rest assured.
"Alas. I know, but you have to be good, I'm still waiting for you to help me. Sun Yu said helplessly, "I'm really sorry to let you do everything." ”
Zhao Mingsheng waved his hand, "This is not only for you, but also for those people." You can't really let such an official continue to do whatever he wants in the court. ”
"Don't worry, I will definitely come back alive with the information, and since they want to invite me, they won't do anything too much to me."
Zhao Mingsheng will never give up on this matter, since he said that he wants to find out the truth, he must do what he says. With the help of Sun Yu, Zhao Mingsheng took Yunyan and quietly went to the south to investigate.
"Where do we start?" Yunyan looked around, the two of them were now in disguise to avoid being discovered by others.
"Since you want to find the truth of the matter, what you need to find most now is the kind of powerful person." Zhao Mingsheng carefully recalled the relevant information, and finally targeted a local official with the most power.
Yunyan nodded, and when he was about to set off with Zhao Mingsheng, he was stopped by the other party. She couldn't help but stare at him strangely for a moment.
"What's the matter, didn't you say you were going to find that official?" Yunyan took a step to the left, wanting to skip Zhao Mingsheng to advance, but Zhao Mingsheng blocked him again.
Now Yunyan knows, Zhao Mingsheng doesn't want to take her over. Yunyan suddenly pursed her lips a little dissatisfied, and said unhappily, "I must go, it's useless for you to stop me." ”
"No, you don't need to go." Zhao Mingsheng shook his head gently, grabbed Yunyan's shoulder, let her look him in the eyes, and said very seriously, "You know, in this matter, only one person should take risks." ”
"If both of us are caught, then there is no point in coming over this time. At the very least, I'll go in and find something, and even if I get caught, I'll be in your hands, won't I? ”
Yunyan was a little helpless to accept it, she pursed her lips, and couldn't help asking, "Why don't I go in and find it, and then give it to you?" ”
"I also know some martial arts, and when necessary, I can use extraordinary means. But you can't, can you? ”
This reason can be said to be very sufficient, so that Yunyan was speechless for a while. But she still couldn't help but speak, "In that case, I, I can also use medicine." Paralyze their nerves, or poison them or something. ”
"Did you bring that much? What do you do if you run out? Zhao Mingsheng was not annoyed, but calmly and Yunyan reasoned about this.
Yunyan didn't know what to say for a long time, and finally could only let out a long sigh, "I know, don't say it again." I'm not going. ”
"I'll be here for you, though. If you don't come back for a day, I'll wait for you for a day, and if you don't come back for two days, it's two days, three days and four days, anyway, I'm going to leave here with you, do you understand? ”
Zhao Mingsheng nodded, hugged Yunyan again, settled Yunyan well, and then came to the official's house.
He knew that he would definitely not be able to get in smoothly with this appearance, and it happened that someone came out of it, and it seemed that it was an official's servant.
Zhao Mingsheng didn't hesitate, and when the little guy came to his neighborhood, he dragged the person in and knocked him unconscious before the other party saw his appearance.
After checking the things on his body, Zhao Mingsheng changed his clothes to his body, this person is about the same height as him, and he also has a mask, so there should be no problem in disguise.
After staying outside for a while, Zhao Mingsheng walked back naturally. The two guards outside the door saw it and couldn't help but ask.
"What, this thing has already been bought? I came back pretty quickly. "What they are talking about, Zhao Mingsheng must not know.
However, he didn't feel flustered, he just waved his hand helplessly, "Don't mention it, I didn't buy anything, and the thief stole the silver taels halfway." I can only pay out of my own pocket, it's really unlucky, don't tell the master about this. ”
"Hehe, it's okay not to say it, but don't forget to buy some wine for the two of us, I haven't drunk it for a few days, and I'm a little greedy."
Zhao Mingsheng nodded and said, "Okay, when I come back next time, I will bring it to you, just if you don't give me a complaint." ”
After walking in smoothly, Zhao Mingsheng wandered in the courtyard for a while, and generally knew the structure of the room, so he began to investigate the interior of the room.
Fortunately, although the house is quite large, it is quite empty inside, so I found some reason and surveyed all the rooms, but there was no big gain.
In the end, Zhao Mingsheng came to the study, only this room remained, and the official's room had not been checked. If he didn't even have it, he might be at risk.
Without the meaning of praying, Zhao Mingsheng directly pushed open the door, and there was really no one in the house. He didn't hesitate, he started to look directly, and the search was very detailed, and even took into account the problem of the dark layer, and knocked on it one by one.
Not to mention, he really found it, there was a lamp on the cabinet in the study, and with a slight twist, a mysterious room opened.
It should be the secret room hidden in the study, there is such a place, and it must contain important things.
Zhao Mingsheng tentatively walked in, it was a little dark inside, but Zhao Mingsheng couldn't light the lamp, so he could only wait for his eyes to get used to it, and then he began to look for it.
By the light outside, he finally saw what he was looking for, evidence of corruption. It turned out that the officials of the family under the Ministry of Industry, after embezzlement, probably buckled this dirty hat on Zhao Mingsheng's head, which caused this incident.
However, he probably didn't expect that Zhao Min would be able to find this place and successfully hold the evidence in his hands.
I have to say, this person is still a little stupid. Evidence like this should have disappeared in the first place, and as long as it remains, it will definitely be found.
Zhao Mingsheng hid the things in his arms, and didn't intend to startle the snake, but just left the secret room, returned everything to its original state, and left from under the noses of the guards.
After leaving, Zhao Mingsheng looked for Yunyan, and after the two converged, he roughly talked about the situation this time. And Yunyan himself didn't waste time in vain when he was outside.
She has also been inquiring about news around here, and she really found out some useful information and told Zhao Mingsheng.
"They had an official named Zhao Jian, who had been protesting against corruption at the time, but now somehow he suddenly disappeared, and no one knows where he went."
"Missing?" Zhao Mingsheng muttered, "This word is really uncomfortable. After all, it is not known whether he disappeared on his own initiative or was forced. ”
"You mean, there's a chance he'll be given it?" Yunyan's eyes widened in surprise, "Then now do we have to find people quickly?" Maybe we'll find out more from him. ”
"Hmm." Although Zhao Mingsheng responded, he felt in his heart that this person was now more than lucky. It's been a while since they've been here, and Zhao Jian's news is a long time ago.
I haven't been found for so long, and the chances of being alive are really not very great. Zhao Mingsheng sighed lightly, but did not explain, and looked for Zhao Jian with Yunyan.
At this moment, someone suddenly screamed outside, and the noise was on the other side of the embankment. Yunyan and Zhao Mingsheng glanced at each other and quickly went over to check.
There were a lot of people gathered there, and they pointed at the embankment, and some even cried in fear. The two of them looked at the sight and couldn't help but be stunned.
I saw a person who was sealed on the embankment wall, and it looked like he had lost his breath. And that person was the Zhao Jian they were looking for.
