Song Mingyuan's movements were not unpleasant, and as soon as he had dinner, Gan Sui was called away by Tongzhi, saying that there was an urgent matter in the ya.

Gongsun Yuqing looked down on Song Yujuan's father and mother too much. He thought that Song Mingyuan was just a simple prince and prince, but he forgot that his wife's surname was Kong. The people of the Confucian family were already famous in the previous dynasty, and their disciples were all over the country, and later the emperor was cruel and unkind, and he was the first Confucian family to stand up and show their public support for Taizu. When the Liang State was first established, Taizu was suspicious and many old ministers were overthrown at that time. The Confucian family learned to protect themselves with wisdom, and fled far away when Taizu ascended to the throne. No one knows what the strength of the Kong family is. In the past three years, Song Mingyuan has rapidly infiltrated the power of the Confucian family in Yangzhou in all aspects. Before the person who spread the news that Gongsun Yuqing was looking for could get out of the alley, he was targeted and quietly fed the river fish.

In the evening, the Salt Gang was unloading their goods and preparing to go home for dinner. A team of officers and soldiers rushed in: "Yesterday, the weaving mansion was entered by thieves, and a number of raw silk was lost. ”

The chief steward of the salt gang quickly came out, "Official, we are now in the peak season for salt, and the gang is in a mess, see if you can make it convenient." "A pile of silver tickets was stuffed directly between the words" The weather is hot, and the official master took it to invite the brothers to have a cup of tea. ”

The person who led the troops was the eldest disciple of the Confucian family, Kong Jun. It should be called Mrs. Weaving, and Song Yunjuan is considered to have grown up since he was a child, and there are only two stinky boys in his family, so he really loves Song Yunjuan like a daughter. Now Gongsun Yuqing is not only deceiving Song Yunjuan's feelings, but also ruining her reputation, Kong Jun can't wait to find him directly and kill him, how can he be accommodating.

Directly threw a stack of silver tickets on the face of the big butler, "The government still dares to stuff the silver on an errand, I think you don't want to die." The brethren searched for me. ”

Before the chief steward of the Salt Gang could speak, the second steward shouted, "Although the people of my Salt Gang are coolies, they are innocent, how can you say that you can search, brothers of the Salt Gang, do you agree?" ”

"No promise, no promise!" The Salt Gang has always been fierce and ruthless in the rivers and lakes, one person is afraid of the government, ten people are not so afraid, and their owners are close to the salt envoys, so they naturally will not put the weavers in their eyes.

Both sides were very emotional, and accidentally caused bloodshed. Kong Jun had been prepared for a long time and wanted to make a mess, and the more chaotic it was, the better it would be to clean it up. The people brought by him are all good hands, and naturally they are not as good as these people. When the fight is at its most chaotic, send out a distress fuse.

Over there, the people from the river defense battalion arranged by Song Mingyuan quickly poured in, and hundreds of officers and soldiers entered the city.

When Gan Sui arrived, the chaos of the Salt Gang had subsided, and there was a big beach of blood in front of the door. The people of the river defense battalion are organizing people to clean up.

"Lord Gan......" Kong Jun stepped forward.

"Master Kong, what is this?"

"Investigating the case, I didn't expect this gang of people from the Ziyan Gang to wantonly obstruct it, so it made a fuss. The matter on our side is over, and we found two hundred horses of raw silk in the backyard warehouse of the Salt Gang......"

"There is no excuse for the crime that you want to add, my salt gang has always made a living by selling salt, you people from the government are acting for the tiger, and wait for us to come back from the house......"

"It's true that I have to wait for you to come back, but you can only wait in prison, take it down!" The people who are now in charge of the Salt Gang have all been brought down. Gongsun Yuqing went out and did not return, and there were naturally people at the gate of the city waiting for the rabbit. "Lord Gan, we have asked me to bring you a sentence 'The mouth has been torn out, it depends on how you move in front of you' and let us fully cooperate with you."

"Thank you, sir."

"Thank you, ma'am." Gan Sui took a look at this ancient mansion of the Salt Gang that had been established for decades, "Since this is the case, then let's take a look inside." ”

The salt gang had been taken away, and now the attendants inside were also guarded alone in a small courtyard, and Gan Sui and Kong Jun walked inside, through the pavilions, and came to Gongsun Yuqing's study. There was a huge yellow cypress tree in front of the study, and the dense leaves were rustling in the wind, and the door of the study was closed. The whole place is quiet and quiet, "I didn't expect the Salt Gang to have such an elegant place." ”

"The Salt Gang has stood tall in the rivers and lakes for decades, and it is by no means a person who can only fight fiercely."

"I also heard that the founder of the Salt Gang was very wise, but it's a pity that his son is not angry......"

"Brother Kong said this, we haven't seen Gongsun Yuqing and his father, Gongsun Long, since we have been in for so long."

"Isn't it in the main courtyard?" He turned and asked the man behind him.

"Nope."

"It's weird, I haven't heard he's going out."

"Are the other exits in this house blocked?"

"Before the chaos at the main gate, the other sides were looking for people to watch, except for the little minions who wanted to run, I didn't see Gongsun Long."

"Then that's something else. Go in and see. ”

Kong Jun pushed the door and walked inside, only to step on the second floor tile and heard a click. Gan Sui hurriedly grabbed him and dragged him out, and the extremely thin little sword brushed the tip of Kong Jun's nose and nailed it to the rosewood door, and a puff of black smoke rose from the door.

"It's not good, it's poisonous!"

Gan Sui and Kong Jun hurriedly retreated to the courtyard, and the house was filled with black smoke. Gan Sui took a rough look in the courtyard: "There should be five elements of gossip in the study, and if you are not careful, you will be injured by a hidden weapon." ”

"It seems that this study is indeed not simple, what should I do now?"

"I don't have a deep understanding of the Five Elements Bagua, so I can only give it a try." The two began to study the study, and Gongsun Yuqing at the gate of the city was gradually approaching.

When he was about to reach the city gate, the soldiers stopped him, "Childe, routine check." ”

Gongsun Yuqing suddenly sensed that something was wrong, and immediately wanted to run, and the secret sentinels set up around him immediately rushed up. The gates of the city were surrounded by water. Seeing that he couldn't escape, he was about to disarm and surrender, and suddenly a hidden arrow was shot from behind the city, reaching the vest, and Gongsun Yuqing died before he could even say a word. The servant behind him was already so frightened that he peed his pants.

"Don't kill me, don't kill me...... I don't know anything. The soldiers had no choice but to escort the people back.

Over there, Gan Sui had already figured out the way, put on armor and walked inside.

"Keep up, don't make a mistake." Gan Sui took every step with extreme care, but fortunately, he entered the door smoothly without danger. "There should be something to control." On the desk table is a shipping map, and Gan Sui carefully examines the soil. There is a small island with an extremely small dot in the middle. Gan Sui carefully pressed down. Suddenly, a hole in the ground was a foot wide. The entrance to the cave is darkened with a staircase faintly visible.

Gan Sui and Kong Jun glanced at each other and walked down with torches. The further down it became, the more spacious it became, and further down there was a small room, in the middle of which was a large bed, on which lay a man with gray hair, who seemed to hear a voice, and sat up slowly.

"Who are you?"

"Are you Gongsun Long?" Gan Sui asked with a flash in his mind.

"It's been a long time since I've heard anyone call me, are you from the government?"

"Exactly. I am the defender of the Weaving Mansion, and this is the prefect of Yangzhou. ”

"I've seen two adults, since the two adults can come here, it must be that beast has already had an accident, right?"

"Father and son don't have an overnight feud, but the old gang leader doesn't seem to like his son very much?"

"He's not my son at all, he's not!" Gongsun Long suddenly became excited, "My son was killed by him a long time ago, he is a wolf in my son's skin, he wants to kill me." I want to destroy all the decades of my salt gang's inheritance, he is not my son......"

Gan Sui and Kong Jun glanced at each other, this old gang leader of Gongsun didn't seem to be normal.

Gongsun Long was crazy for a while, and slowly calmed down. Suddenly knelt down, "Although I am incompetent, I can't watch the salt gang family business ruined in my hands." We Salt Gang are all coolie men, who rely on labor to support their families, and now they are being used by traitors, but most of them are innocent people, please be lenient. ”

"How to get rid of your own laws and regulations, but as long as you are not the mastermind, there will not be much difficulty."

"Thank you, sir." Gongsun Long said and spit out a mouthful of blood, "My time is short, and being able to see the sky from the day can be regarded as God's mercy." I buried last year's ledger under the yellow cypress tree in the courtyard earlier, and it will be useful to you if you can go through it. I've been holding on until now just to see what happens to those people one day. ”

"Let's go out first." The room was very stuffy, and there was a bad smell, Kong Jun couldn't stand it, and the two helped Gongsun Long out of the secret room. When he arrived at the study, he took down the salt transportation map on the table. The three of them began to walk out of the study together, inexplicably smelling a strange fragrance, Gongsun Long suddenly became restless, stepped on the stone slab next to him, Kong Jun a swallow glided, flew out with Gan Sui, and the study exploded. The loud roar shook the two of them, and Gan Sui spat out a mouthful of blood.

Kong Jun adjusted his breath and barely stabilized before asking, "Are you okay?" ”

"It's fine. It seems that there is still a black hand behind the scenes, did the salt merchant send someone there? ”

"Not yet."

"Brother Kong, quickly mobilize troops to surround the Salt Chamber of Commerce and take care of President Liu, if it is too late, I am afraid that someone will kill you." The people behind the scenes even had such a big killer against Gongsun Long, and the rest of the people would probably not let go.

"I'll go at once, I'll leave these capable people to you, be careful."

Gan Sui nodded, and Kong Jun went out.

Now that he knows the account book, Gan Sui naturally wants to dig out the account book. The yellow cypress tree is very large, and the roots and branches under the tree are intertwined, so people start digging down. More than a dozen people lit torches, and the courtyard was illuminated. After a short time, the box was dug out, and Gan Sui did not dare to delay for a moment, and immediately began to return to the county office.

Over there, the Kong army went out, and the weaving made such a big move here, obviously unable to hide the history of the salt palace.

"What do you mean by Lord Song, you are transferring troops and arresting people, do you really want to turn this Yangzhou City over?"

"Master Zhu, listen to me ...... slowly"

"My lord, my lord...... Kong Jun returned, "We have found conclusive evidence, and now we need to bring people to surround the salt merchant's mansion, and ask my lord to give an order." "The strength of the previous patrol battalion was obviously insufficient, and it was necessary to send more manpower, and the Kong army came back to move the rescue troops.

"What conclusive evidence is there to present to this official first, most of the state capital of Yangzhou City depends on salt merchants to live, if they are offended today, if the salt store is boycotted tomorrow, then the entire Yangzhou City will not be turned upside down."

"My lord, it's too late. Now the situation ......"

"When it comes to the reputation of businessmen, you can't be cautious, don't be in a hurry." Shio Yushi still disagreed. "Present the evidence first."

"Gan Fujun is searching in the courtyard of the Salt Gang, and he will be able to ...... soon"

"There's no evidence yet. How big a deal Lord Song is to arrest people for no reason, you won't know it. ”

"Lord Zhu, now that the matter is urgent, I won't argue with you, if there is anything at that time, the emperor will blame it, and I will bear it alone." Song Mingyuan knew that Gan Sui was not sure that he would definitely not arrest people easily, so he dared to vouch.
