Chapter 1028: Chang'an Daily goes down to Yangzhou
Wang Shengzhi's heart was full of question marks at this time.
"Caught in Jinmendu?" Good guy, I was obviously stabbed to death by you, now why don't you put this on hold?
Li Changyuan continued: "That's right, when the Cao Gang leader was doing a big business in Jinmendu, he was discovered, many Cao Gang members were arrested, and the gang leader was also taken on the official ship, that official ship is not simple, on the surface it is an official ship, but in fact they are all traitors!" ”
"If you can get on the boat and quietly kill the other party's thief and rescue the gang leader, it will definitely be a great achievement."
After listening to his words, Wang Shengzhi finally understood what he was thinking.
Is this his own kung fu in the picture, and he plans to let himself sneak into the official ship quietly, and then kill His Majesty for him?
It's a pity that he miscalculated.
Seeing that the other party had already exposed his relationship with the Cao Gang, Wang Shengzhi did not hesitate.
He asked hypocritically: "How much is there on the official ship, and where is the helper being held, and I ask Master Li to make it clear." ”
Li Changyuan motioned for him to come closer and listen, Wang Shengzhi took a step forward and suddenly took a step around the other party's mouth, and then twisted his neck hard, and the transfer envoy who was calling for wind and rain on both sides of the canal lost his life.
Until he died, he couldn't believe that things had happened so quickly.
This person is not from the Cao Gang, why do you want to kill him?
It's a pity that everything came to naught.
After killing Li Changyuan, the remaining cronies also acted quickly, and they did the same, and the entire transfer embassy was already killed by them without anyone finding out.
After the killing, Wang Shengzhi left the Cao Gang and other handwriting in the hall, and disappeared into the night with his cronies.
Next.
The case of the water capital supervisor and the transfer of the envoy to the government to destroy the door immediately alarmed the entire Grand Canal.
Not only that, the members of the Hedong Gang and the Hexi Gang, who have always been arrogant and domineering in the river on weekdays, disappeared completely as if they suddenly disappeared overnight.
A few days later, the Chang'an State Affairs Department, which heard about this, was greatly shaken.
Lord Fang Xuanling quickly convened the Ministry of State to discuss the matter, and after deliberation among the adults, it was agreed that the matter should be thoroughly investigated, but after a special letter was submitted, the matter was silent.
No one knows what's going on, only that the imperial court just casually sent a team to inspect the transfer embassy, and combined with the death of the Cao Gang, and finally announced that it was the Cao Gang and the transfer embassy fighting for revenge, and now the Cao Gang has been wiped out, and Lord Li Changyuan is also dead, and after the Ministry of State Affairs gave the corresponding reward, it was hastily ended.
As for the reward for the transfer envoy, because the other party has been destroyed, the reward naturally does not need to be implemented.
At this point, the riots on the Beijing-Hangzhou Grand Canal came to an end.
Li Ye, who is far away in Hangzhou, and the 18 major families are still waiting for the news of the Beijing-Hangzhou Grand Canal.
The self-proclaimed eighteen princes and other scheming are quite profound, not only only planned the canal Hangzhou, but Li Ye only found out that the Beijing-Hangzhou Canal is also his own person in the recent rumors, if Qin Huaidao takes the waterway, the canal Cao Gang will most likely do it.
But when the news came, things didn't go as they thought.
"It turned out that the transfer embassy and the Cao gang fought each other, ending with the Cao gang being wiped out and the transfer embassy being wiped out?" Li Ye didn't know the true identity of the transfer envoy sent by the Shui Du Supervisor to the Beijing-Hangzhou Grand Canal, and he hadn't even been in contact with the Cao Gang, so he couldn't believe it when he saw this ending.
Several people envisioned many scenarios.
Shangguan Skylark suspected that it was His Majesty's secret ambush that caught these Cao Gang members off guard, which led to the defeat of the situation, and as for the report issued by the government, it may be a cover-up move by the imperial court.
The head of the Jiang family also had this idea.
As for Li Ye, although he thought so, he didn't dare to say it clearly, for fear of damaging the morale of these family plans.
After thinking about it, he made an excuse for this matter: "Everyone, I don't think it may be the means of the Dog Emperor, a few of you think about it, the development momentum of the Cao Gang on both sides of the strait is so great, I heard that the transfer envoy Li Changyuan is not an idle person, I think he should have a lot of internal responses in the Cao Gang, and it is also reasonable to know in advance that the Cao Gang is planning and responding, otherwise, how can he keep the canal safe for many years?" ”
Hearing Li Ye's explanation, these noble families also felt that it was not unreasonable, and gradually accepted the matter.
As for their plan, they are not afraid of 10,000, they are afraid of what happens, and they still have to be thorough.
On the canal, there are official ships moving slowly, and without the checkpoint of the river soldiers, many civilian boats are no longer stranded, and they go down the river along the canal, as if nothing happened that night.
Most of these civilian ships carried some commercial goods, and they transported artifacts from the north to the south, and transported the grain, taxes and silver money from the south to the north and Chang'an, which was much more convenient by waterway.
At this time, Qin Huaidao realized that the poems describing the magnificent scenery on the riverbank in ancient times were not lies.
Before they knew it, everyone went to Yangzhou.
The whole of Suzhou and Hangzhou is a very important part of the transportation road planning of Qinhuai Road, not only because they are located on the main waterway, but also because of the prosperity and open commercial trade here.
Therefore, passing by here, he took Cheng Chumo and the four people off the official ship to stay for a short time to feel the customs and customs of this place.
I saw that in Yangzhou City, the population is prosperous, the merchants are constantly coming and going, and the two streets along the street are full of all kinds of strange gadgets from all over the world, these merchants are constantly selling, a lively scene.
"Come and see, come and see, the latest good pearls on Longyou Road, bright color and high quality, only thirty silver can be pocketed, and there will be no more if you miss this place."
"Chang'an Daily, the first Chang'an Daily, designated by His Majesty, Xue Yuanchao Xue Shaolang personally penned, don't lose the time and don't come again, come and buy it quickly."
"Rare top-level silk, the whole Yangzhou only has my Liu name, you can see and buy."
"Bragging about you, isn't the German silk much better than yours?" Some people laughed.
The shopkeeper of Liu Zihao did not refute: "It's good or not, don't you know if you buy one?" ”
Looking at the stalls and shops along the street, Qin Huaidao didn't react much, but instead excited Cheng Chumo and the others.
He quietly approached Qin Huaidao, and was about to call the word Your Majesty, when he suddenly remembered a few people traveling in a low-key manner, and hurriedly changed his words: "Brother Qin, there are really you, Chang'an Daily has been sold here, it seems that this ideological offensive is prestigious, I'll go and see how much it sells here." ”
Qin Huaidao smiled: "You go." ”
He is also curious about why Yangzhou also has Chang'an Daily? When a few people crowded into the stall, they couldn't help laughing.
The Chang'an Daily that came to Yangzhou turned out to be only the first edition!
Qin Huaidao's "On the Equality of All" written by Qin Huaidao himself is still in the column of New Ideas, but this newspaper does not know how many hands it has turned, and it has been crumpled.
