The Zhuangjin sent to the Tusi Yamen in Xincheng was cut off in the middle of the road? What kind of moth is Qingyuan Mansion going to make? The more Ensheng thought about it, the more he felt that something was wrong, and there must be an ulterior motive in this.

Could it be that Qingyuan Mansion wants to take the opportunity of transporting tribute to the palace to report the mutiny of the land and the sea?

Qingyuan Mansion did not wait for him to receive the Zhuangjin before handing it over, and chose to cut off the beard halfway, which obviously doubted him. Once Lu Dahai and his affairs are stabbed to the emperor, then he will not be far from death.

Thinking of this, Eun Sheng immediately sat down on his tiger skin chair, beads of sweat the size of beans kept coming out of his forehead.

"Someone, horses."

Eun Sheng shouted and asked his subordinates to match him with horses, and he had to rush to Jingliu immediately to report to Lu Dahai.

Qingyuan Mansion secretly did things on the tribute, which was highly confidential, except for the state official and Xie Zongbing, Wei Shihao and Mo Qinglian, no one else knew about it.

In previous years, when Qingyuan Mansion wanted to deliver tribute to the capital, it was all fanfare and held a very grand ceremony, but now it is no longer the same, and the vehicles transporting tribute can only quietly set off at night.

Wei Shihao was solely responsible for the escort, and Mo Qinglian and Wei Dangtou, Li Maozai, Liu Chongshan and other ten people escorted them.

According to the original transportation route, it was necessary to take the land route. After the escort team departed from Qingyuan Mansion, it followed the official to the east, and then turned into Hunan and Hubei...... All the way to the north, directly to the capital.

In fact, Lu Dahai had already guessed the route of transportation for the tribute. He sent more than 1,000 masters to ambush all the official roads on the border of Guangxi and Hunan, and when the convoy arrived, he annihilated them in one fell swoop.

Once Lu Dahai's conspiracy succeeds, then what awaits the governor will be the felony of the tribute being hijacked and the escort ineffective, and he will definitely be killed.

However, what Lu Dahai thought of, Wei Shihao also thought of, but the latter thought of it, and the former didn't think about it.

After Wei Shihao entered Liuzhou's territory with the escort team, he ordered the team to kill all the horses, bury them on the spot, smash the carriage, and sink into the river.

Everyone was puzzled, but Wei Shihao was the supreme commander of the transport team, and although they had complaints, they could only comply.

In the end, Wei Shihao ordered all the tributes to be loaded onto a large ship that had been prepared long ago and changed to water.

After receiving the task of escorting the tribute, Wei Shihao had already predicted that Lu Dahai might send someone to stop the robbery in the middle of the road, so he kept a hand, and had already prepared a large ship on the side of the Liujiang River, and hired enough crews.

Although it is difficult to take the waterway, it is safer to change the waterway than to encounter an ambush by land.

The masters sent by Lu Dahai were on the border of Guangxi and Hunan, and after waiting for almost a month and no trace of the transportation was found, they could only give up.

At this point, Lu Dahai still didn't know the trace of the convoy, and he was depressed all day long, and he didn't think about tea and food. Since the men and horses he sent came back from Guibei, he had even more trouble sleeping, and the more he couldn't find the trace of the convoy, the more he felt afraid, and finally he could only send someone to the capital to tell Gonggong An about his worries.

After nearly two months of sailing, Wei Shihao and others finally arrived at Tianjin Port and hired a few more carriages to pass through the capital.

After the convoy entered the capital, Wei Shihao asked everyone to change into the official uniforms of Qingyuan Mansion, and sent Li Maozi to the palace to inform in advance.

However, as soon as Li Maozai reported back, a team of forty or fifty officers and soldiers arrived and stopped Wei Shihao and others.

"Is the carriage a tribute to the palace?"

A tall man riding a black war horse, dressed in an officer's uniform, and with a long knife at his waist, stopped in the middle of the road, pointed at Wei Shihao and the others and asked.

Wei Shihao's legs straddled a maroon mount lightly clamped, and the horse took two steps forward, and said, "Exactly!" ”

"You guys were sent by Qingyuan Mansion in Guangxi? Who is Wei Shihao Weidus? The officer said again.

"It's Wei Shihao down there!"

"That's right. The official was entrusted by the Ministry of Rites to take over the goods and escort them back to the palace. Everyone, please come with me, the Ministry of Rites has arranged a place for you to stay, wait for a few days to rest, after completing the handover procedures, please go back! ”

The officer's tone was stiff, which made Wei Shihao feel undeserved courtesy at all.

Since the handover procedures had not been completed, Wei Shihao felt uneasy and said, "My lord, before you get the handover documents, please allow Wei and others to escort them outside the palace gate together, and then settle down for accommodation, how about it?" ”

"Hmph...... Boy, do you think this is your mountain wilderness? This is the capital, does anyone dare to rob it? The officer said angrily.

"I can't say that, I also think about the safety of this batch of tribute, and it is also my job responsibility, I hope your adult understands." Weatherhowe said.

The officer pouted and said, "Okay, then you can follow!" Anyway, the inn is also near the royal palace. ”

Wei Shihao followed the team to the gate of the palace, and unrelentingly asked the other party to go through the handover procedures before coming to the inn to rest.

Wei Shihao went to the inn and asked, only to find out that the people from the Ministry of Rites only gave them one day's accommodation expenses, which meant very obviously, that is, to receive them politely for a night, and let them get out of the house the next day.

Wei Shihao has his own plan, he finally came to the capital, but things can't achieve the expected goal, how can he go home like this?

So, he paid for an extra five days of room money.

After Zhuang Jin was sent to the palace, it was not sent directly to the Ministry of Rites, but was secretly sent to the mansion of Gonggong An.

Father-in-law An is thin and tall, with a pointed face, a layer of white foundation is applied to his already pale skin, and he can't see any blood, his skinny nose is raised, and he is slightly hooked towards his big lips with lipstick, coupled with sharp eyes, the whole face is like a zombie's face, which makes people shudder.

After Zhuang Jin was pulled into the compound, Gonggong An read the orchid fingers, twisted his spitting waist, and walked out of the gate of the mansion, looking like an old eunuch.

"Are you all here?" Grandpa Ann made a sissy voice.

"Tell Grandpa An, it's all here." The escort officer said.

"What about the delivery person? Is it all arranged? ”

"It's arranged!"

"Keep my eyes open, whether there is a problem in the goods or not, those untouchables are all going to die, and they have to be done cleanly, you know?"

"Yes, the villain is willing to take the lead for Gong An."

Gonggong An asked his subordinates to carefully inspect the magnificent brocade of a carriage, and found nothing wrong, so he arranged for someone to put it away as it was.

"Grandpa An, what should we do next?" The officer asked.

"What to do? This thing should have been pulled to the Ministry of Rites, what are you pulling to my house for? Why don't you hurry up and pull it away? After Father-in-law An finished inspecting the goods, his face suddenly changed, and he looked like he didn't care about himself, trying to get rid of the crime of privately inspecting the tribute.

It is said that eunuchs are yin and yang, and it is not false at all.

Fortunately, the officer, who had been working under him for a long time and was accustomed to his style, replied: "Yes! The goods were delivered to the wrong place, so hurry up and pull them away. ”

After his men pulled the goods out of the courtyard door, the officer whispered to Gonggong An and said, "I'll go and deal with those people!" ”

"Stupid, is it okay to kill people casually in the capital?"

"Don't kill?"

"Hmph, you really want to off the old lady...... Oh no, angry about my father-in-law? Just because you can't kill inside the city doesn't mean you can't kill outside the city! Grandpa An thumped his chest and said

"The little one understands!"
