131. The undercurrent is turbulent
He Shaoyang didn't go to the house he had just rented at all, and disappeared directly with a bunch of weapons on his back. Although he only had a meal earlier than Luo Quan and Mu Qingyou, it was exactly in the evening, and when the two Jinyi guards mobilized the Inspection Department to track them in various ways, the night became He Shaoyang's most loyal partner, covering all his traces.
Luo Quan and Mu Qingyou both knew that Dongchang Jinyiwei had been tracking people from north to south for more than half a year, so they turned around under their noses, Shi Shiran left, and even almost blended into the team that was investigating him. It sends chills down their backs when they think about it.
The two recalled every word He Shaoyang said, but they couldn't even analyze the slightest bit of information, and they had never seen anyone who could hide themselves so deeply.
Luo Quan also found a painter to paint a portrait of He Shaoyang, but no matter how the painter modified, it was always difficult to draw He Shaoyang's portrait. Sometimes the size and shape of the facial features are already very close, but when they are put together, they feel that the position is wrong. It's hard to have a good place, but it's lacking charm. It is this bit of charm that makes the portrait and the real person like two people.
"Do you think he knows how to demons?" Mu Qingyou really couldn't find a secular explanation, so he forced himself to think about strange forces.
Luo Quan pondered for a moment and said, "No wonder even his accomplices can't say that they are ugly. ”
Mu Qingyou said: "Do you want to start with Xu Xiaole again?" ”
Luo Quan stopped talking. From the perspective of Jin Yiwei's method of handling the case, if the prisoner cannot be caught, he may be able to torture some useful information by arresting the people close to the prisoner. However, the only people who are "close" to He Shaoyang are Xu Xiaole and Luo Yun. One learned his medical skills, the other his sumo. The two of them have a life-saving grace for him, which is simply beyond the scope of "closeness", it can be said to be "relatives"!
Let Luo Quan put his son in prison and torture him?
Luo Quan would rather take off this tiger skin and take his son overseas!
Let Luo Quan arrest Xu Xiaole?
Not to mention whether his son is against him, how can Xu Lao'an explain it? Without Xu Hui, how can I have myself today? This line is connected, and catching Xu Xiaole is equivalent to putting the shackles of ingratitude on his back, will he be able to sleep in the future!
Most of the time, Luo Quan is still an impartial person, but when it comes to his bottom line, he is a little shaken.
Mu Qingyou is just stubborn, but he is not stupid. He usually does business and refuses to be accommodating, just because he is unwilling to go along with the dirt, not because he doesn't understand the world.
Seeing that Luo Quan was silent, Mu Baihu also analyzed the reason. Even Confucius said: The Son is hidden for the Father, and the Father is hidden for the Son, and he is directly in it. Although obstructing the handling of the case is insulting to the ethics of Jinyiwei, it is more ethical to hide relatives and relatives.
Mu Qingyou said: "How can it be good for the prisoner to escape from us?" ”
Luo Quan's eyes lit up, and he said in his heart: There is a door!
If he had handled this matter alone, he would have forgotten about it artificially, and he would have thought that He Shaoyang was an ordinary Jianghu guest. Mu Qingyou, who came from Beijing, was beside him. The two are not very acquainted, and Luo Quan always suspects that Mu Qingyou is a "Tartar official".
When Emperor Taizu restored the north, in order to save vitality, he had a summoning order: all Mongolian people who were willing to obey Wang Hua were treated equally with the Chinese people. As a result, many Mengyuan generals surrendered and were placed in various guards. They fought fiercely and had superb riding skills, and they also became the elite soldiers of the Northern Expedition to the desert later.
These people are the "Tartar officials".
The Tatar officials have a strong temperament, and they are grateful to the emperor and loyal to Dai De, and they only talk about loyalty and impartiality, not about human feelings.
If Mu Qingyou was a Tartar official, then it would not be surprising that he would ignore it and report the truth.
Listening to Mu Qingyou's tone now, it seems that he doesn't want to mess with his future.
Luo Quan said: "If this matter is reported, the two of us will definitely not end well." Not to mention, we came forward to rent him a house. If you can't draw a portrait, you can't escape the crime of hiding and hiding - unless the people above believe that he can do magic. ”
Mu Qingyou was also worried about this and nodded.
Luo Quan continued: "Fortunately, no one else knows about this matter. Whether He Shaoyang is the person he wants from above, we only have eighty percent doubts - what if he hits the other two percent? This is far-fetched, but it is not impossible. If it took manpower and material resources to arrest He Shaoyang and find out that it was not the person he wanted above, he would have wanted to cry even more.
Mu Qingyou was silent for a moment, swallowed his saliva, and then spoke: "Let's just say that Suzhou dug three feet into the ground and never found a suspicious person, how about it?" ”
Luo Quan thought for a while: "There have been traces to Suzhou, let's say no, I'm afraid the above won't believe it." In this way, let's say there is, and more than in one place. The thieves are suspicious, but unfortunately we are understaffed. Ask Shangfeng for help. ”
Mu Qingyou frowned and said, "If Shangfeng really sent people, but we still can't catch people, wouldn't it be impossible to end up?" ”
Luo Quan smiled and said: "We are only a hundred households, and we use a lot of manpower, do you still want us to take care of it?" The top always has to send a thousand households and townspeople to search. ”
Mu Qingyou stroked his palm and praised: "When the sky falls, it's good to have a tall man on top." ”
Luo Quan was a purple-faced tiger and a snake in the end, and quickly found some "suspicious" points. He didn't even have to use his hands, he only needed to induce a few words with words, and some witnesses thought that he had really discovered the important criminals of the imperial court, and he yelled and wanted to be rewarded for his meritorious service.
If there are too many clues, there will naturally be insufficient manpower; There are too many people, and the official positions of Luo Quan and Mu Qingyou are too small.
Beijing attached great importance to this, and overnight dispatched a commander from Nanjing to Suzhou to take charge.
Luo Quan and Mu Qingyou had a big quarrel in front of Shangfeng, each insisting on one going east and the other going west. Of course, this is also the repertoire agreed upon by the two, as long as the servant supports one of them, or does not support it, he can put the responsibility of the lost person on his head in the future.
Everyone is not stupid, this conductor can't cry bitterly after eating Huanglian, so he has to silently look for the next scapegoat.
Xu Xiaole naturally didn't know that after He Shaoyang left, he would set off such a turbulent wave. He only knew that the Taihu Lake Inspection Department was quiet, and he didn't see the sea fishing documents posted on the streets and alleys, probably if this matter dragged on, it would be fine.
He didn't know that a team of freshly dressed and angry horses were being transferred to Suzhou from all over the country, and the imperial court was desperate to catch the key criminal.
At noon on August 17, Chen Mingyuan got off the boat at Mudu Wharf with gifts on his back, and soon inquired about the location of the Xu family. The purpose of his trip was to ask Xu Xiaole to take a leave of absence as soon as possible and return to Changchun Hall to "study medicine".
