The night was like paint, and outside the back door of King Jing's mansion, there was a man in black: "Wang Zhi has been beheaded, after the battle of Cen Gang, the body found in Zhoushan, after Wang Zhi's cronies identified, this person is very likely to be Mao Haifeng, and no one suspects that it is our hand."

A voice came from the door: "Although the father and son are dead, we still have to be cautious and immediately deploy a new secret liaison base, and the previous secret posts have all been revoked." How are we looking for new collaborators? ”

"I've found it, Wu Ping, the leader of Guangdong's pirates. These Ming people are all greedy for good goods, greedy for life and afraid of death, as long as there is enough to impress their interests and let them swing a knife at their biological parents, they will not hesitate at all. ”

"That's because your eyes are limited to those mountain bandits. Recently, I found a very annoying person - Zhu Xixiao, the second master of the Chengguo Mansion, if this person has more experience, he will be a difficult opponent. Fortunately, now the court of the Ming Dynasty is treacherous, fighting openly and secretly, and King Jing Zhu Zaizhen, Yan's father and son, and Dongchang have long regarded Chengguo's mansion as a thorn in their side. You return to the coast immediately, and your task is to gather Wang Zhi's old troops, try to arouse their desire to avenge the old master, and prepare more supplies for our next big plan. If there is nothing special, don't go to Beijing again, let alone meet. If you let Jin Yiwei smell something, it will be troublesome. ”

"Yes, Watanabe understands. How is your injury, does King Jing Zhu Zaizhen suspect anything? ”

"I told him that he had encountered a wandering widow in Zhejiang, and that he had fallen off his horse in a fight and dislocated his mark, and he had always trusted me. Alright, you go quickly, and keep my words in mind. ”

"Yes."

As soon as a eunuch was about to light the lamp and candle on the table, he screamed in panic. The fire fell on the table, and the fire was extinguished.

Yang Jinshui, the head of the Jiangnan Weaving Bureau, scolded sharply: "What are you yelling, you've hit a ghost!" As soon as the words fell, the candle on the table lit up, and Zhu Xixiao gave him a cold smile when he played with the fire fold.

"Ah~ ghost!" Yang Jinshui screamed and fell to the ground.

Zhu Xixiao slowly paced in front of Yang Jinshui, squatted down, and said indifferently: "Manager Yang, your demeanor is easy for others to misunderstand that you are a thief."

Yang Jinshui settled down and said to the eunuch who supported the Ying: "Little Xuanzi, you should retreat first!"

Xiao Xuanzi walked out of the room quickly and closed the door again.

Yang Jinshui got up from the ground at this time, and the corner of his mouth squeezed out a smile that was more ugly than crying: "Lord Zhu came to visit late at night, there must be something important, right?"

Zhu Xixiao also got up and paced unhurriedly in the room: "As soon as Zhu left Hangzhou Mansion during the day, he encountered a group of noisy crows blocking the way, so he turned back and asked Manager Yang what was going on."

Yang Jinshui, who had regained his calm slightly, trembled, secretly breathed a sigh of relief, and pretended to be puzzled: "What Master Zhu said, our family doesn't understand it."

In the darkness, Zhu Xixiao heard the panic from Yang Jinshui's voice, and he smiled faintly: "Since Manager Yang can't understand, then Zhu might as well explain it." We, Jinyiwei, are responsible for supervising hundreds of officials, and the East Factory is responsible for supervising Jinyiwei, which is already decades old. Therefore, Manager Yang should not be naïve to think that he is a close confidant of Chen Hong, the commander of Dongchang, we don't know what you did. In these years, the weaving bureau paid tribute to the Inner Court Needlework Bureau and handed over the silk cloth to the Ministry of Industry and the silk cloth sold to the Franco merchant, and the number and price taken by the chief manager from Shen Ji, which is very greasy! As he spoke, he handed the accounts copied from Qiu Ying in the afternoon to Yang Jinshui, "A few days ago, someone opened an account for Manager Yang in Sifang Qianzhuang and deposited 200,000 taels of silver, and yesterday Manager Yang took away 180,000 taels, and these silver should now be in the hands of Zhao Hu, the master of the sect and known as Yin Shuai in the rivers and lakes!" ”

Yang Jinshui trembled, and knelt down at Zhu Xixiao's feet with a "plop" sound: "Lord Zhu, the small one is 'people under the eaves and have to bow their heads'!" Since you are safe and sound, Master Zhu, I beg you to be kind and let the little one go as a fart! The little one will be grateful for your great kindness for the rest of your life. ”

"Of course, Zhu knows that Manager Yang is 'entrusted by others and loyal to people', and he came here to get evidence." Zhu Xixiao said and stretched out his hand towards Yang Jinshui, "Don't say that the evidence has been destroyed by you, it is impossible for you not to save a hand for yourself in case of such a big crime as assassinating the second master of the Guogong Mansion and the son of the Jinyi Guard's commanding envoy." ”

Yang Jinshui was about to cry: "Lord Zhu, Grandpa Zhu, the ancestor is the palm seal of the celebrant and has won the trust of the emperor, and the godfather Admiral Dongchang is in power, you take the evidence to expose them in front of the saint, I'm afraid they can get out in three or two clicks." At that time, in addition to assassinating the boss, the villain's crime must also be added to frame the boss, with the means of the godfather, the villain will not be able to survive, and he will not be able to die, grandpa! ”

Zhu Xixiao chuckled: "You know all these Zhu Mou, I will not use evidence to expose Li Fang and Chen Hong, Mr. Yang can rest assured." said that pair of ice-like eyes forced Yang Jinshui, which means that if you don't listen to me, I will hand over the evidence of your corruption and bribery and self-enrichment over the years to the emperor, and see if your godfather Li Fang and godfather Chen Hong will take care of you.

Yang Jinshui knelt and moved to the side of the bed, took out a small wooden box from under the bed and handed it to Zhu Xixiao.

Zhu Xixiao took out the letter from the box and gave a brief look: "How did you find the person who was evil?"

"There is a Fushou coffin shop in the west of the city, as long as you draw a grimace on the wall of that coffin shop, the people who are troublesome will come to the door."

Zhu Xixiao walked out of the back door of the Weaving Bureau, and it was early in the morning.

A resident eyes and ears stepped forward and arched his hand: "Shen Weijing, the humble position, has seen Lord Zhu."

Zhu Xixiao said: "Keep an eye on Yang Jinshui, and ...... Is Imperial Doctor Li Dongbi's daughter still in Hangzhou? ”

"In, last year, after Imperial Physician Li resigned from the post of hospital judge, he returned to his hometown Huguang to open a Dongbitang medical hall, his son Li Jianyuan is a military doctor in the Yu family's army, and his daughter was originally in the army with his brother, however, this time Governor Hu was unwell, Imperial Doctor Li was invited to Hangzhou to help Governor Hu recuperate, so their father and daughter live in the Governor's Palace, oh, by the way, that Miss Li seems to be going to Wengjiashan on the edge of the West Lake to collect medicine in the past two days."

Zhu Xixiao led the horse, wandered slowly on the path, looked at the endless tea plantation and the thick cover on the tea trees, and laughed at himself: "On such a cold day, how could a teenage girl go out to this wild to collect medicine."

"Brother, I'm going to fall, help!"

"Xin'er, don't be afraid, brother...... How can you lie to people again, if you do this again, even if you really fall in the future, my brother won't care about you! ”

"Brother will definitely not ignore me, I just like to see my brother look stupid in a hurry. Hahaha! ”

Zhu Xixiao grabbed the reins violently, turned the horse's head and galloped away in the direction from which the sound came.

Li Xiaxin hung on the cliff wall, clutching a dead vine with both hands, and climbed up with difficulty and care. Li Jianyuan stretched his arms at the bottom of the cliff, as if a huge baby would crash into his arms, and he was ready to catch it at any time.

Li Xiaxin suddenly stopped climbing, carefully released one hand, and slowly stretched out towards the Ganoderma lucidum tree growing on the cliff wall. After shaking her body for a while, she waved her arms and shouted down excitedly: "Brother, I have picked Ganoderma lucidum!"

"Okay, come down quickly, my heart is about to jump out!"

Li Xiaxin threw the lingzhi into the bamboo basket on her back, and began to move slowly downward, until she was about four or five feet above the ground, she let go of the dead vine and jumped down. Li Jianyuan stepped forward and just caught Li Xiaxin.

Li Jianyuan wiped the cold sweat on his forehead: "You climbed up and down on such a high ground, and you are about to jump down when you are close to the ground, what if my brother can't catch you, how dangerous it is!" Also, in the future, I will do this kind of dangerous work, I will be more tired below than climbing to the top of the cliff. ”

Li Xiaxin retorted with a smile: "I'm not here to exercise your brother's skills!" If I fall down on it, you can catch me, and if you fall down on it, you can't even squash me! As he spoke, he took out the Ganoderma lucidum from the back basket and shook it proudly: "Such a big Ganoderma lucidum, no matter how hard it is, it's worth it!."

"The brothers in the army with old wounds need it, go, go back."

The figures and laughter of the two brothers and sisters gradually faded away, and Zhu Xixiao, who was standing not far away, was melancholy and entangled in his heart - from the first time he saw this little girl who was always smiling sweetly in the Governor's Palace, he felt that he could even say that he hoped that she was Xia Mengmeng, the little sister he often carried on his back when he was a child. But now, he hopes that she has nothing to do with the former Shoufu, she is just the daughter of a medical family, carrying a medicine basket and laughing in this landscape, forever.
