Chapter 453: Sent to the Mine Again
But he didn't know that the person he was looking for was right under his nose, and those officials could only go out to do errands.
Yang Yanxi was not worried, he stayed quietly in the cell, now that he himself was here, how could anyone come to save him, but he couldn't reveal his identity yet, otherwise he wouldn't be able to get his things back.
Those books were not the most important thing to him, the important thing was the ledger, which recorded the evidence of King Qingyang's corruption and swallowing some of the relief money, as long as he had that ledger, he had enough opportunity to find out what happened back then.
"How's it going? Any news? ”
King Qingyang saw that the sky was dark, there was no news at all, and he opened his mouth to ask, but he was vaguely uneasy in his heart, he also checked those things, and the account book was still early, so he was relieved.
He didn't admit that those books didn't have his handwriting or any words on them, and the emperor couldn't help him even if he knew about them, but the ledger was different, and the records in them were all the income of the palace, etc., and he could find out that something was wrong at a glance.
"Back to the prince, there is nothing wrong, in order to prevent that person from coming to rob the prison, his subordinates have already deployed officials to wait in the dark, but there has been no reaction at all after so long, could it be that this old man really has nothing to do with that person?"
The attendant on the side couldn't help but suspect that he was wrong, he had indeed inquired about the old man's deeds, and learned that he would often take away things that the guest officer did not want in the inn.
"Wait until tonight, if there is no movement, send him to the ore, there must be mined there."
King Qingyang commanded, he was very irritable, and the county lord was about to come, and the matter of the ore had not yet been dealt with, and if someone spread something at that time, it would be more than worth the loss for him.
"Yes, my subordinates will do something."
When the attendant saw this, he saw at a glance that his master was not in a good mood, and he would only get in the way.
At night, the cell was quiet, and all the officials were full of energy to patrol, for fear that they would not notice anything, but it was a pity that the night was quiet and no one came to break in, but those officials who had been guarding all night couldn't help but doze off.
Seeing this, the attendant directly sobered everyone up and waited for them to patrol, while he sent a few people to send Yang Yanxi to the ore, and they continued to wait outside the inn.
"What use do you say the prince can do by sending an old man to the mine, I'm afraid this old bone will fall apart in the mountains."
The official who escorted him was very puzzled, but he was quite pitiful for him, and he was sent to work as a coolie at his age.
"Don't talk about this, if the master knows, it's you who should go there."
The other looked at his words in the back, and he didn't want to suffer because of this gossip, and he shouldn't have said anything about this matter in front of the old man.
"Okay, okay, I won't say it."
The official listened and fell silent for a moment, and the others didn't dare to make anything when they looked at it.
The road became a lot quieter, Yang Yanxi looked at the road outside and wrote it down, this time they didn't blindfold him, maybe because he couldn't escape from that place even if he was an old man, and he didn't bother to make it so troublesome.
And the people who had been looking for Yang Yanxi on the hills became more and more impatient when they saw that they had not seen his trace for many days, especially the one who came to Yuanzhou County to look for him in person.
"What the hell are you doing, this Yuanzhou County is not big, with your ability, you can't even find a person, besides, don't you have someone guarding outside the city? What's going on? ”
When the head learned the news and questioned, seeing that his medicine was about to run out, he still didn't know how his old illness was recovering, so he could only find him as soon as possible.
"We don't know about this, could it be that the man has the art of disguise? Otherwise, each of us has checked and we haven't seen anyone. ”
Those people suspected that this was the only way to be able to keep it under their noses, otherwise even if he was injured, they would be able to find it, and there was no news for so long, so it could only be said that he was hiding it on purpose.
"I don't believe it, such a big living person can still grow wings and fly, you will look for me door to door until I find it, these days people will see people, and dead people will see corpses."
The leader commanded, very disappointed in their efficiency, although this place is the prince's territory, but he is here, the prince will not do anything to him.
Naturally, he didn't have to worry that people from the government would come to stop him, but these people had just risen wave after wave, and their good life was disturbed.
"Boss, I think there may be a place where that person is there, I heard that King Qingyang has used the portrait of us to find someone to arrest a lot of men in the past few days. Maybe he will be arrested, otherwise I will ask King Qingyang for a favor and let us go and find him. ”
One person remembered the news he got in the morning, and hoped that he was really there, otherwise they wouldn't be able to find anyone even if they turned Yuanzhou County over now.
"Is this news true? If it is really Qingyang Wang's arrest, it is really a bit difficult, presumably Qingyang King must be doing something when he suddenly arrests so many men, if we go rashly, I am afraid that we will be suspicious. ”
The leader listened and pondered, their life was not so easy in the past few years, but now it is much better, but it is still risky, not to mention that this matter is probably still the secret of King Qingyang.
"Boss, why is that? We don't have a contract with King Qingyang, and he won't do anything with us. ”
The man said puzzledly, there is a contract, they can do whatever they want, not to mention that their power has also increased in the past two years, so there is no need to worry about it.
"Don't look at King Qingyang who indulges us so much on weekdays, but secretly he has been planning to wipe us out, although I don't know why he hasn't made a move for so long, but once we know something, we can't escape a war."
In other words, this is why he has not let his brothers live in Yuanzhou County for so many years, but as long as everyone is in the city, King Qingyang can wipe them out with one hand.
"I see, that son, are we still looking for it?"
The man asked about this, and finally understood the intentions of his boss and the various considerations for them.
"Looking for it is definitely going to be found, but you go and send people to follow the traces of King Qingyang's men to see where they have caught people, I am going to ask King Qingyang to ask, if it is done, we will break in if it is not successful, remember not to startle the snake."
The leader thought for a long time and said that this was probably the best way, as long as they could find a place, it would be easy to rescue a person, but I was afraid it would be a trap.
For so many years, he had been careful to take care of the lives of these brothers, but he was very disturbed by recent events, and he always felt that something was about to happen.
The man took the order and went down, picking a few clever ones to follow, while the rest continued to search.
