Father-in-law Tong was taken down.

Lin Yunyan took out the handkerchief in her sleeve and handed it to Xu Jian.

The best silk handkerchief is embroidered with two peonies, and it also brings the flavor of spices that she usually uses.

Xu Jian didn't answer, and wiped his hands with the old cloth ball resting on the lobby.

Let the saliva of the chamberlain stain the veil?

You can't be so violent.

Seeing this, Wan Tang was beckoning his subordinates to send some tea to moisten his throat, turning his head to see such a scene, he didn't hold the corners of his mouth, and smiled.

How else to say that young couples are exquisite?

It's not like an old husband and wife like him.

Alas!

After a hard night's work, his clothes were all dust.

When I go back, I'm going to be nagged by my old wife again.

Wan Tang shook his head secretly and cleared his throat: "Grandpa Guo, county lord, it's really a big harvest to catch this person tonight, we have worked hard for so many days, and we have not been busy in vain."

To tell you the truth, I was worried that it would be bad, but I was afraid that King Jin and his gang would have run away a long time ago, and none of us would be able to catch them.

First, they can't pay the difference, and second, they are afraid that they will come back.

Now, it's open. ”

"How can you be busy in vain?" Xu Jian said, "However, the protagonist tonight is not him. ”

Wan Tang was stunned when he heard this.

What do you mean?

This eunuch is not a protagonist yet?

He is the one who has the poison prescription, and the murderer who poisoned the prince and the one in the Yongji Palace is equivalent to him.

And it turned out to be just a supporting role?

So what is the origin of the protagonist? Could it be King Jin himself?

"Where's the main character?" Wan Tang rolled up his sleeves and asked, "Lao Wan will go with you to arrest him back!" ”

"Don't worry," Xu Jian said, "As far as the three people I caught back the news, they are the key." ”

Wan Tang listened half understood and half understood, and asked, "Mention one to ask?" ”

"Let's bring it up," Xu Jian said, "Let's see which one is smarter." ”

Hands down to errands.

Wantang waited with a long neck.

Lin Yunyan stood next to Xu Jian, no one spoke, and she understood with a few looks.

Not long ago, after receiving the note from Su Chang, she and Xu Jian tasted a little weird.

Father-in-law Tong's stay in Beijing is an extremely abnormal thing in itself.

As Lin Yunyan just said to Gonggong Tong, as an internal servant, once he is caught, he will not even have the opportunity to quibble than others.

And Father-in-law Tong seems to rarely show up, but he is actually not safe.

Su Chang had clearly seen him.

Judging from the previous formation, Li Du did not cut off his tail, but tried to protect his father-in-law, and there was indeed a deep friendship between master and servant.

But if he was so reluctant to let Tong Gonggong go, Li Du shouldn't have left him in the capital this time.

The manpower worthy of Li Du's complete trust is indeed tight, but it has not yet reached the point where it is impossible to find two or three people.

Therefore, Tong Gonggong's stay in Beijing has other meanings for Li Du.

Before the arrest, Lin Yunyan and Xu Jian couldn't assert the meaning, and when they came back after arresting two groups of people, they could basically have a definite answer.

Father-in-law Tong is not an outcast, but bait.

Of course, Father-in-law Tong himself didn't seem to know about this, and when he was stimulated and asked by Lin Yunyan, his reaction couldn't deceive people.

Father-in-law Tong sincerely thought that his stay here was all because Li Du trusted him.

Lin Yunyan thought that they still had a friendship with the master and servant.

Li Du protected his father-in-law when he was able to protect him, at least he was much better than Dao Heng and Wang Qi.

But when Li Du himself was unable to protect himself and had to be cautious at every step, Tong Gonggong was thrown aside, or rather, used to exchange for more benefits.

Because Li Du's great cause of revival needs Su Yi.

Li Du believed in Su Yi, but he was not completely at ease with Su Chang.

The root of this matter is still in Chenmi Hutong.

At the beginning, in order to persecute the people behind the scenes and put pressure on him, Xu Jian once said something to Li Shao in the East Palace, mentioning that "there are Guyue envoys who enter and leave the house, so they leave a golden note".

Those things are said deliberately, deliberately to be heard, and deliberately transmitted to the ears of the other person.

And after that person knew that Xu Jian had already known about Chen Mi Hutong, he broke Dao Heng's tail.

Since the person behind the scenes is Li Du, what would he think of that envoy Su Chang?

Xu Jian's original words were conservative, and he did not point out who the envoy was, nor did he reveal that it was Gonggong Tong who met with the envoy, even on the day of the siege of the Jin Palace, Gonggong Tong had been to Chenmi Hutong and was concealed.

But Li Du was there, and he had to guard against it.

After a year, Xu Jian did not check the eunuchs who entered and exited Chen Mi Hutong at that time, but did not move until Feng Wei opened his mouth.

Of course, it's not that Lin Yunyan and they don't want to check, but except for the surname Tong, Su Chang can't answer.

In Li Du's view, this is more like Xu Jian only knows one thing and doesn't know the other.

In other words, Xu Jian mastered the identity of the Guyue envoy and even Su Chang, but he did not know and did not recognize Gonggong Tong himself.

The only one who recognized Tong's father-in-law was Su Chang.

Once Tong Gonggong was arrested, Su Chang was extremely suspicious.

And Su Chang was judged to be not credible, and all the actions after Li Du and Su Yi would be adjusted.

Using Tong Gonggong as bait to test Su Chang's loyalty was the reason why Li Du kept him in the capital.

Lin Yunyan and Xu Jian also thought of this and arranged tonight's arrest.

Father-in-law Tong must be arrested, and other calculations have to be disrupted by Li Du.

It is the grandmother of the He family who recognizes people.

After the garrison yamen was withdrawn, Lin Yunyan left with the He family's grandmother.

This is not only to protect Su Chang, but also to guard against Su Chang.

Xu Jian Huangque was behind, and he caught three of them, highlighting that one came prepared.

At the same time, he also "let go" one.

That one is in the small word alley, it seems that he has lived here for a long time, and the neighbors all know him, and the garrison yamen has checked twice but has not found out.

The only thing that shows the stuff is the posture.

Standing and walking, whether it is a practitioner or not, insiders can see it.

And the man secretly looked at Lin Yunyan and the He family's grandmother, his eyes were not curious, but scrutinizing.

Xu Jian didn't arrest the man, but only asked Xuan Su to follow carefully and determine where he would go next.

After a while, the three of them were brought up together, with blue noses and swollen faces, and they were very embarrassed.

Wan Tang asked: "Their names, surnames, and what they have done, they will all explain." ”

No one answered.

Wan Tang was not surprised by this, he laughed hey, turned his head and said to Xu Jian: "In the yamen, you are harder than your mouth, naïve." ”

"It's naïve." Xu Jian took it.

He's ever seen a hard-mouthed one.

Like Wang Liu, it is extremely difficult to dig out a word of truth from his mouth.

But if it's three accomplices, it's easier to do.

"You can freeze if you want, starve for three or five days and then interrogate, whoever speaks first, who eats chicken legs, the second one feeds two mouthfuls of rice porridge, and the last one is hungry."

"Turn your head and come again, it's still the same rule, repeat it for a few days."

"The three of you look at each other, can the other two stand up to you better than yourself?"

"If you hesitate for a while, the chicken leg rice porridge is gone."

"If I were you, I would hurry up and say everything I could now, so that I wouldn't have to starve for three or five days."

Hearing Xu Jian say this, Wan Tang laughed: "Grandpa Guo is still kind-hearted, and he also gives chicken leg rice porridge, and I want my Lao Wan to say, don't fight if you open your mouth first, the second one is ten boards, and the last one is twenty boards."

Our brothers here will fight, and they will die in pain, but they will not die.

Well, I don't think you three believe it, huh?

Let's have 10 boards each and taste the taste. ”

To say that the fight is to fight is to fight.

Ten boards were beaten down, and the wails went from loud to small, and finally they couldn't shout in pain, only gasping for breath.

Wan Tang asked his men to feed each of them some water, repeating the previous question: "Name." ”

Some hesitated, others rushed out.

With this beginning, the interrogation after that became much easier.

Xu Jian kept listening to Wan Tang's question, and Leng Buding interjected a question: "Father-in-law Tong went out on a trip, who did he go to meet?" ”

"Lord Ding!" One person was busy.

The other hurriedly said: "Lord Ding of the Jingwei Command Envoy! ”

Wan Tang gasped: "Ding Yuannian? ”

"I don't know what it's called, I live in Magpie Alley."

Wan Tang was puzzled, thinking that he had misremembered, and asked Xu Jian: "Ding Yuannian doesn't live there, right?" ”

Xu Jian said: "He raised one there." ”

The corners of Wantang's mouth twitched.

Raise?

What else can be raised besides the outer room?

That Ding Yuannian looked honest, and relied on the support of the Yue family to climb step by step to the commander of Congsanpin, but he didn't expect to buy another room.

However, how can Fu Guogong know everything?

After a busy night, the garrison yamen had other gains.

Relying on these three people to fight for me, they also confessed two private houses in Beijing, although they were uninhabited at this time, but some old documents were copied from them.

At dawn the next day, all the progress was sorted out and presented in the Jinluan Palace.

Although there is still no whereabouts of King Jin and Li Rong, the arrest of Gonggong Tong is also a big progress.

After Xu Jian finished speaking, he turned his head to look at Ding Yuannian: "Lord Ding seems to be very uneasy?" ”

Ding Yuannian's face sank: "What does Grandpa Guo mean by this?" ”

"It means that Father-in-law Tong's mouth is not as solid as Lord Ding thinks," Xu Jian said without hesitation, "The people who followed Father-in-law Tong also saw him to Magpie Alley, and Lord Ding can't say that he doesn't know what is going on in Magpie Alley, right?" ”

Ding Yuannian snorted coldly, and was about to clear up, but was stared at by a sharp gaze.

Long Yan Weiyi.

Ding Yuan's neck was sweating after the year.

If it was on the side, Fu Guogong asked like this, Ding Yuannian flicked his sleeves and left, but this was in the Jinluan Palace.

"The minister, the minister is frightened," Ding Yuannian knelt down, "The minister has indeed seen a person, but he is a rickety little old man with a beard, and the minister has not connected him with the father-in-law next to King Jin at all." He opened his mouth and closed his master's mouth, but the minister didn't know what he was talking about, and he annoyed him to find the magpie alley, so he drove people out. If the minister knew that he was the king of Jin, the minister would have arrested him a long time ago. ”

Ding Yuannian's "urgency and wisdom" obviously did not cover the doubts of others.

"What happened to Magpie Alley? How did Lord Ding go there? ”

"If you don't know him in the old days, what will he do when he comes to you in this time of life and death?"

"Lord Ding, the old man advises you, let's make meritorious contributions."

Ding Yuannian was dizzy by the persuasion and questioning of the east and the west, and then looked at the bright yellow figure on the dragon chair, his eyes were dark, and he fainted.

For a while, some people pinched people, and some people pointed fingers.

The saint coughed heavily, asked the guards to take Ding Yuannian down, and the imperial doctor needed to be invited, and pointed to him to ask him when he woke up.

After retreating, Shengshang walked up to Xu Jian and patted him on the shoulder: "It's hard work." ”

After speaking, he said to the other courtiers: "Everywhere should be stepped up, and Li Du can't be allowed to make waves again." ”

In the next few days, there were still some gains.

The man who followed Xuansu wanted to release the carrier pigeons, but he was intercepted on the spot, and more than 20 were collected.

The pigeon breeder was interrogated and it was learned that the pigeon would fly to Jinzhong.

Lin Yunyan simply sorted out all the account problems of Jinzhong Changyuntang and other good halls into a book, and hid them in a private house that was discovered earlier, which was turned out in the second raid of the yamen.

Through the hands of the elders who are good at handling accounts in the Qianbu Corridor, they have figured out a way for King Jin to make money over the years.

Cining Palace.

Lin Yunyan spoke with the Queen Mother.

"It must be more than Jinzhong, such a well-earned and hidden silver money is blooming everywhere, if you want me to say, rich as Jiangnan will definitely not escape the scourge of the King of Jin."

After listening to this, the queen mother said: "Li Du is much more patient than the mourning family thinks, if it is not for this time to find him out and let him lurk, it is really difficult to say in the future." ”

There was no one else in the hall, so Lin Yunyan said: "His Royal Highness originally believed in him. ”

The Queen Mother sighed.

What is the unbelief or unbelief of the past?

It's a matter of how to go from here.

It's about Yun Yan, and she has rubbed it with Li Shao several times, and the Queen Mother has always been very worried about this.

Li Shao's crown prince was abolished, but whether it was the queen mother or Lin Yunyan, they all knew that the saint had the heart to re-establish.

If Li Shao can really enlighten himself and be upright and upright, the Queen Mother will not give him a chance anyway, but the actual situation is that she just lacks some confidence.

However, Li Du has not been eliminated, and the court is not stable enough, and it is not wise to talk to the saint about the prince at this moment.

"I don't know if the people who go to Jinzhong to track down can be gained...... the queen mother sighed, "It's difficult to fight the country, and it's even more difficult to defend the country."

When the saint ascended the throne, the world was poor, and he recuperated for more than ten years, and finally had the appearance of today's Tai'an.

If there is another war, it will break its muscles and bones. ”

Lin Yunyan thought for a while and said, "It's also a good thing to get rid of hidden dangers as soon as possible, while Xiliang and Gu Yue haven't moved yet, while the veterans can still fight." Otherwise, in another ten or twenty years, the old generals will not be able to lift the knife, and the younger generations will not be able to continue, and the trouble will be even greater. ”

mentioned that Qinghuang did not answer, and the queen mother was also very helpless: "The mourning family heard that the Shuntian Mansion Yin often scolds Jingzhong? is to scold, one by one is from a noble background, and he doesn't do things all day long, but if half of them are willing to go up, they are not considered to have no successors. ”

As he was talking, a voice came from outside, saying that the eldest princess Derong had arrived.

Soon, the eldest princess came in, smiled and said hello to the queen mother, and supported Lin Yunyan, who was saluting.

"I heard that the Duke of Fu Guo has made a lot of contributions this time," the eldest princess said to the Queen Mother with a smile, "The husband you picked for Ning An is really good, and he can do things." ”

The Queen Mother laughed.

"I really don't understand the second brother," the eldest princess said again, "It's not that he is crazy himself, but he also affects his sister-in-law and Li Rong." Fake death and shell, how did he come up with it! Having said that, Ning An, you can guess that he is waiting for such a play, which is also amazing. ”
