Chapter 51 Interlocking
VIP chapter content,
"Master, the Li family has united several ministers in the imperial court, secretly manipulated and put the long sword and shield on the ship of Linglong Pavilion. The matter has spread, but fortunately, Xiaoshan blocked it with one hand, but he just made a bet with Dongqing Wine Fang. If Linglong Pavilion wins, Dongqing Wine Shop will not be able to open the door again in this life, and if Linglong Pavilion loses-" Before Xiao Wuming finished speaking, he was interrupted by Tao Yaoyao.
"Linglong Pavilion won't lose." Tao Yaoyao said with a smile.
"Master, this matter has shocked the government and the opposition now, I'm afraid that the Li family will not give up, even if this matter is over, there will be a backhand." Ignorant analysis.
"With those old antiques, they can't seal the Linglong Pavilion, they see that the Chen Luo and the two clans are powerless, and the Tao family is in prison again, so they want to pick up Li Mingtao's thighs at this time." Tao Xiaoxiao sneered.
"The Jiang family's attitude is unclear at this time, according to the spies in Xiaocheng, the Jiang family doesn't seem to approve of Jiang Barium's approach, and it is estimated that it won't be long before they send someone back to let Jiang Barium stay out of the matter and splash all this dirty water on Linglong Pavilion's body." Yao Wuming nodded.
"Hmph, the Jiang family only relies on one mother, and to put it bluntly, it relies on the emperor. Those old antiques naturally wouldn't expect the Jiang family to speak for them, and they wouldn't have nothing to do with them. It's just that this is just the emperor's sake for balance, ignorance, you say that if one side of this balance sinks, and the balance completely collapses, what will happen to the emperor? Tao Xiaoxiao chuckled, and the cloisonné beads on her head swayed.
"The emperor will inevitably suppress that side for the sake of the overall situation." Yao Wuming seems to understand something, this convenience is the Li family.
"Then what if the other party is not to be outdone, completely out of control, and wants to be the second to sink?" Tao asked again.
"Then the emperor will destroy them and restore peace." Yao Wuming exhaled deeply and said, this other party naturally refers to the Jiang family.
"That person must be watched, don't let him die." Tao Xiaoyao suddenly changed the subject.
"The master can rest assured, this person is also cunning, knowing that what he does will be destroyed, he simply took his own daughter's life to fill it, and he is also inhumane, greedy for life and afraid of death. Now that he is eating and drinking in the dungeon, he will never think of dying. Xiao Wuming smiled.
The person who said Tao Yaoyao was the one who poured the oil on the hot oil, and this kind of black market buying and selling would not ask the identity of the buyer. But the man found out that the goods had been delivered to the palace, and soon there was a fire in the palace, and a favored lady was burned to death, and he was so frightened that he fled for his life overnight, leaving his ten-year-old daughter at home to guard it.
As expected, someone went to his house after the fire was over. That's what the family was doing, and a slight flame was another fire, which burned his daughter's bones to pieces, but he went straight to Nansu, but he didn't want to be stopped by a group of black-clothed people on the way, he thought he would definitely die, but he didn't expect the other party to eat and drink for himself.
Not only that, but Xiao Wuming also put his burned unrecognizable daughter in front of him, although he hated it, he was so frightened that he scattered his soul and soul, and he still had the intention of running away. At this time, I am afraid that the door of the dungeon is open, and I will not go out.
"Hasn't the emperor of Beigao returned yet?" Tao asked again, this is an important step.
"They followed their master all the way to Panjiang City, but they left in a hurry for some reason, but they didn't go in the direction of Xiaocheng." Xiao Wuming replied.
"Oh?" Tao Yao raised her eyebrows and left in a hurry? This is not like the style of the disciple, I'm afraid something has happened.
"They went directly to the camp of the righteous king." Xiao Wuming said.
"Qing Siyi?" Tao Yaoyao frowned slightly, this good day is going to change, and his family is about to fight, this master still has the heart to run to the barracks?
Tao Xiaoyao knows that people like Qing Yezhuo, if they make a small fuss with his mind, they will turn a blind eye, but if it involves people's livelihood and social welfare, they will inevitably be investigated to the end and will not be tolerated. Tao Yaoyao also took advantage of this, but he didn't expect that he didn't go back to Beigao to thoroughly investigate the Li family's affairs, and was thinking about how to deal with it. Could this person not be as good as he thinks? Did he really leave the people of the city behind for power? Tao Xiaoyao couldn't figure it out, so she simply didn't think about it. But for some reason, a trace of loss suddenly lingered in my heart.
"The master doesn't have to worry, although the emperor didn't go back, he still agreed with the master's mind and sent someone to investigate the matter." Seeing Tao Yaoyao frowning, Yao Wuming said.
"Who?" Tao Yaoyao immediately asked, and the prostitute didn't know why she was in such a hurry.
"Liang Gaoliang." Xiao Wuming replied.
Hearing these three words, Tao Yaoyao's eyebrows were a lot more relaxed.
"Looks like someone is going to be unlucky. There is no danger in staying in King An's Mansion now, and if you are not familiar with the people here, it is easy for you to arouse suspicion. You go back to Linglong's house to help Xiaoshan first, and then come to me after the matter is dealt with. Tao Yaoyao said with a faint smile.
"Yes." Xiao Wuming has no objection to Tao Yaoyao's instructions.
Tao Xiaoyao felt inconvenient, she just wanted to draw a line to build a bridge, as for what will happen to the two of them in the future, it is not for her to master. Look at fate, Tao Xiaoyao said to herself.
And when Yao Wuming rushed to Luoyang County, Liang Gaoliang didn't spend much effort to find out the clues of the matter. It's nothing more than a deception in the mall, but this time the Li family's methods are even worse, they are simply blind, and they don't even bother to cover up. But the matter didn't end there, he found out that some of the Li family and the Salt Gang also seemed to have an unpredictable relationship.
The case of the Salt Gang was closed long ago, but now that this has been found out, I really don't know if it's a blessing or a curse. However, it is a blessing that cannot be escaped, and a disaster cannot be avoided. Qing Yezhuo left the matter to him with full authority, and Liang Gaoliang thought for a long time before writing the official document, and then sent someone to Luoyang County immediately.
Jiang Barium was now clutching a letter, his brow furrowed. Suddenly, he sighed, and said to his son, who was sitting below nervously, "Mu'er, don't have anything to do with Linglong Pavilion in the future?" ”
Jiang Mu didn't expect his father to call him in a hurry, just to say this, he hurriedly asked: "Father, we have already stood with Linglong Pavilion, now even if we leave it first, I'm afraid it won't be easy!" ”
"No matter what, we can't have anything to do with Linglong Pavilion anymore! See for yourself. Jiang Mu handed him the letter in his hand.
Jiang Mu took the thin paper tremblingly, and broke out in a cold sweat just after scanning the first column. The letter clearly stated that the imperial court had already had an opinion on the matter of Linglong Pavilion, and now all the ministers felt that Linglong Pavilion had something to do with foreign clans, and the Li family had bought off many people, so it can be said that the evidence of Linglong Pavilion smuggling prohibited items was conclusive. Not only that, what made Jiang Mu's back cold was that this matter had been handled by Lord Liang himself.
Who is Lord Liang? It is the emperor's confidant minister, although it doesn't fit with everyone's clan, and he is also from the Han clan, but the implementation of the new policy is almost controlled by this person, although these old guys hate him to the bone but are helpless, but they have to be polite, who knows who will find out tomorrow!
Now, the matter of Linglong Pavilion is handled by this person, coupled with the power of the Li family, I am afraid that such a small shop as Linglong Pavilion cannot afford such a catastrophe.
"Father, the head of the Li family came to Luoyang County in person, it turned out that he was not here to solve the matter at all, he was here to take over Linglong Pavilion!" Jiang Mu suddenly felt regretful when he thought of this.
"Yes, my father also knew after reading this letter. The Jiang family already has an opinion on being a father, and I am afraid that they feel that their father is for his own selfishness, and he goes to stand on the side of Linglong Pavilion and oppose the Li family. Hum! These dogs, if there is any force behind Linglong Pavilion, I'm afraid it's too late to grab the credit! Jiang Barium's palms lined up on the table.
"Father, many people know about us and Linglong Pavilion, I'm afraid this is ......" Jiang Mu also frowned, I am afraid that the matter is really beyond expectations, I didn't expect the Li family to win over those old guys, which made them unexpected.
"Hmph, what can I do without evidence? It's just the admiration of young people, but it just so happens that this woman is from Linglong Pavilion. Now the crime of colluding with foreign clans in Linglong Pavilion is unforgivable, Mu'er, you have to distinguish the matter! Jiang Mu knew in his heart that he had to be cautious and take precautions, otherwise he might be really implicated now.
"What does my father mean-" Jiang Mu was shocked when he heard this, did he want him to turn his face and deny people? Jiang Mu pondered for a moment and nodded, women are still more important than rights. After all, power can bring him countless women, and if a woman is tired of it, it is not interesting.
"The son understands his father's good intentions, and the father is relieved." Jiang Mu did not dare to be disobedient.
"Good!" Jiang Barium looked at his son, smiled and nodded, as long as this matter is completely brushed away, no one can help him!
"Mu'er, there's one more thing you need to do." Jiang Barium thought for a moment and then spoke again.
"Father, please." Jiang Mu lowered his head, not knowing what he was thinking, and the sweat on his face had already dripped to the ground.
"Tomorrow is the day of the bet, it seems that Linglong Pavilion has no chance of winning, you must leave the relationship before the Li family." Jiang Barium has always been careful about things, and this is also for the sake of his only son.
"Thank you for mentioning it." Jiang Mu still didn't raise his head, but he made a decision in his heart.
"Go ahead." Jiang Barium waved his hand tiredly, and Jiang Mu retreated according to the order, but did not go back to the room, but went straight to the Xianchi Building.
Of course, Jiang Mu knew what kind of business Xianchilou was secretly doing, it had nothing to do with him, the important thing was that he could get things done.
"A thousand gold?" After Jiang Mu explained his intentions, the other party's offer made him frown. So much for a piece of paper? If it weren't for the neatness of the work in Xianchi Building, he was afraid that he would end up with the same fate as Dongqing Wine Shop that day, why did he bother to find it? A few hundred taels of silver is enough to make people die for him.
"Childe, the content on that piece of paper is worth a thousand gold." The person who spoke was masked, and there was only a dim candle lit in the room, so Jiang Mu couldn't see the other party's appearance clearly.
"Okay, but make sure it happens." Jiang Mu gritted his teeth and nodded.
"Childe, rest assured, there is no one in the world who has taken over the work of our Xianchilou and done something inappropriate." The man in black said in a hoarse voice.
"When you bring your things, I'll bring you the gold." Jiang Barium drank tea, a little depressed in his heart. A thousand gold, enough for him to find dozens of superb beauties to rub and abuse!
Childe laughed, and Childe delivered the gold half an hour later. Then, that agreement will also come to Childe. What the man in black said surprised Jiang Mu, half an hour?
"Good!" Jiang Mu stood up and went out of the compartment to find the little servant to prepare the gold, and when he came back, he found that the man in black had long since disappeared.
