Chapter 169: President Ling's composure
Early in the morning!
The sun rises in the east, and the sun shines through the blue sky and reflects the earth.
In front of the gate of the Ling Mansion, carriages full of things left under the escort of Ti Qi.
At this time, a hundred steps away from the gate of the Ling Mansion, there were many people gathered, and they pointed at the smoke-filled Ling Mansion and whispered about it.
The brocade clothes and horses guarded the main roads everywhere, and they were majestic, and no one dared to come forward to ask.
Yang Xiaoyu stood in front of the gate of Lingfu, holding a short bow in his hand, winding an arrow, aiming at the magnificent Lingfu plaque is an arrow.
Sou!
The arrow pierced through the air barrier and shot into the middle of the character 'Ling'.
"Lord Yang, good archery!" A heart-to-heart laugh sounded behind Yang Xiaoyu.
Yang Xiaoyu smiled slightly, turned around slowly, and saw He Tao walking to the gate of the Ling Mansion with his cavalry, and saluted in front of him.
"Lord He is really early!" Yang Xiaoyu immediately returned the salute, with a faint smile on his face.
"Lord Yang crossed the state capital and came directly to Hangzhou to arrest people, this is a violation!" He Tao had a smile on his face, but his eyes were extremely unkind, looking at Yang Xiaoyu's eyes full of anger.
Jin Yiwei has its own territory, Yang Xiaoyuguan's territory is in Yangzhou, but he brought people to Hangzhou to arrest people, which not only broke the rules of Jin Yiwei, but also directly robbed He Tao of the credit.
Yang Xiaoyu waited here early in the morning, just knowing that He Tao would definitely come to ask what was going on, so he smiled unhurriedly and said: "Yesterday I entered the city late at night, and I wanted to send someone to report a message to Lord He, but the door of Lord He's mansion was closed, and the people below did not dare to slam the door rashly, but the matter was urgent, so I had to make my own decisions." Take down a bunch of criminals first, and then make amends to Lord He afterwards. ”
He Tao waved his hand to let his subordinates stop in the local area, and he slowly walked to Yang Xiaoyu's side alone and asked, "Lord Yang, Chairman Ling is a wealthy businessman in Zhejiang, you arrested him." Aren't you afraid that Zhejiang officials will embarrass you? ”
Yang Xiaoyu smiled, he dared to raid the Ling Mansion, he had already made careful arrangements in advance, and the Zhejiang officials were persuaded by Yang Yong that he was only responsible for capturing everyone in the Ling Mansion and digging up evidence of the collusion between the Ling family and the White Lotus Sect.
"Lord He, waiting here this morning is to give Lord He a credit!" Yang Xiaoyu did not answer He Tao's question, but smiled mysteriously.
"What credit?" He Tao asked unhappily. In his mind, Yang Xiaoyu would not give him the credit he had received, most of the time he would throw some difficult things to himself.
"President Ling is a big man, he knows the hiding place of the remnants of the White Lotus in Hangzhou, if Lord He can catch these people, then the credit for this is all yours!" Yang Xiaoyu laughed in a low voice.
The remnants of the White Lotus are the number one henchmen of the Jinyi Guard, and whoever can catch these people will undoubtedly be rewarded by the Jinyi Guard's Suppression Division.
"Could it be that President Ling told the news of the remnants of the White Lotus?" He Tao frowned slightly. Asked out loud.
"President Ling doesn't say it, but the rest of the Ling family does. If Lord He believed it, at noon, he would tell Lord He the news of the hiding place of the remnants of the White Lotus, but before that, it would be troublesome for Lord He to send his subordinates to guard the city gate. No one is allowed to leave the city, otherwise, the remnants of the White Lotus will definitely run out of the city and flee for their lives when they get the news! Yang Xiaoyu said with a cunning smile.
He Tao thought for a moment, and now Yang Xiaoyu caught the famous President Ling. His expression was not panicked at all, it can be seen that this matter was agreed by his father Yang Yong, otherwise, Yang Xiaoyu is a thousand households, where would he dare to touch the tiger whiskers of President Ling of the Zhejiang Chamber of Commerce.
President Ling was arrested, the Chamber of Commerce will definitely be chaotic, and if he arrests the remnants of the White Lotus in the city, it will definitely play a deterrent role, He Tao then thought about it, a look of sudden realization appeared on his face, and he hurriedly said: "Thank you Lord Yang for your generosity, He is ashamed." ”
"Don't go against the relationship with Lord He below, how can you monopolize it if you have merit, although Lord He can rest assured, at noon, the news of the remnants of the White Lotus will definitely be delivered to your lordship." Yang Xiaoyu knew that He Tao had reacted when he saw He Tao's face, and immediately laughed loudly.
He Tao smiled and nodded, there is a way, the credit for sending it to the door is not for nothing!
Besides, this is in Hangzhou, if he doesn't make a noise, the people who command the envoy in Jinyiwei should think that he is a mediocre person.
"Lord Yang is busy with official business, so He won't bother much!" He Tao was worried that the remnants of the White Lotus had escaped from the city, and he had to send Jinyi guards to strictly investigate at the four gates, so he hurriedly said goodbye to Yang Xiaoyu.
Yang Xiaoyu smiled and bowed, and let He Tao stride away, for him, the credit for arresting everyone in the Ling Mansion was already big enough, and there was no need to take other credits.
The credit for the remnants of the White Lotus was given to He Tao, so the rest of the credit for the seizure of the Chamber of Commerce and the Ling family's property had to be handed over to the three divisions of the yamen, as for how the credit was apportioned among the three divisions, it was none of his business.
Yang Xiaoyu left two small flags of cavalry to garrison around the Ling Mansion, prohibiting ordinary people from approaching, and then came to his mansion in the south of the city with a group of cavalry.
When he went to Yangzhou, he left dozens of guards for the Chengnan Mansion to clean the courtyard and supervise the Ling family.
When he returned to the mansion, he saw that the courtyard was spotlessly clean, no different from when he left.
But the matter of monitoring the Ling family has been delayed, if he hadn't overheard the conversation between the man and the woman, what chance would he have to clean up the Ling family now?
Now that the Ling Mansion is all arrested, Yang Xiaoyu does not blame the guards, after all, the guards are small in number, and it is understandable that they have to monitor the Ling family and take care of the mansion.
Zhou Tong and Cao Tai didn't sleep all night, and they were all asleep in the back garden at this time, and all the horsemen and horses who stayed behind to patrol also fell asleep.
Only Chen Yingren was by Yang Xiaoyu's side.
When he came to the hall, Yang Xiaoyu sat on the main seat and ordered the guards on both sides to bring the famous President Ling here.
Chairman Ling was dressed in silk and satin, his face was as calm as ever, and he was escorted into the hall by the guards, his eyes narrowed slightly, and he didn't say anything.
"Is Chairman Ling wondering when the Zhejiang officials will save you? Is it? Yang Xiaoyu seemed to be able to see through President Ling's thoughts, and said slowly.
"Yes, although Xiaomin is a businessman, most of the officials in Zhejiang are friendly with Xiaomin, from the three divisions of the governor to the government officials, they will definitely try their best to save Xiaomin when they learn that Xiaomin was arrested by adults!" Chairman Ling said extremely calmly.
Yang Xiaoyu smiled, asked the guards to show President Ling a seat, and then said with a faint smile: "They won't save you, because your collusion with the White Lotus Sect has been exposed, and they don't dare to save a person who colluded with the anti-thief." ”
"The adults say that the small people collude with the White Lotus Sect, but what evidence is there?" President Ling asked rhetorically with an unflustered expression.
"The human evidence is your son, as well as the Yan'er girl from Yangzhou Linxiang Pavilion, and the physical evidence is the grain on your Ling family's merchant ship, is this evidence enough to convict you of a crime of beheading?" Yang Xiaoyu had a confident smile on his face, as if he was talking about an ordinary trivial matter.
A panic flashed in Chairman Ling's eyes, but it disappeared in an instant, and his body, which was originally motionless, trembled slightly, and then forcibly calmed down and said, "What the adults are saying, the little people can't understand it. ”
Talking to smart people can improve IQ, Yang Xiaoyu was happy to play with this old fox, and said with a smile: "Actually, you don't have to understand, you just need to know that this official is Yang Yong's son Zuyi." ”
"What?"
When President Ling, who had always been calm, heard this, he finally couldn't hold back the fear in his heart and cried out.
Yang Xiaoyu was very satisfied with Chairman Ling's stunned expression, and continued: "You should know that this official's father has a very good personal relationship with you, without him, how dare this official arrest you, besides, Zhejiang officials know that this official arrested you, will they still save you?" ”
Chairman Ling closed his eyes and combed through the chaotic thoughts in his mind, as Yang Xiaoyu said, Yang Yong had a very good relationship with him, and he sent silver to Yang Yong every year, in order to borrow the power of the Yang family, so that his merchant ships could go by water without any hindrance.
Now, Yang Yong's son has arrested his whole family, can he still expect Yang Yong to save himself?
Although most of the Zhejiang officials have received his silver, but without Yang Yong, who dares to save himself from Jinyiwei?
Moreover, his own son confessed to him, and Miss Yan'er, the helmsman of the White Lotus Sect in Yangzhou, was arrested, and the two witnesses can be said to have convicted him of a capital crime.
And the grain on their own merchant ships, these are all evidence. (To be continued......)
