Chapter 365: I Really Don't Blame Me for This
Speaking of which, Jing Gongzi, dressed in red, clapped the railing with his hand and stood in the wind.
"If this is the case, what a pity is Jing Di's death!"
On the balcony.
The north wind is howling, and although this place is in the south of the Yangtze River, there is already a bit of a chill.
The little guy in Tsing Yi stood with his hands down and was silent.
But his own son, in order to avoid implicating the last trace of the Dachu royal family after the matter was exposed, deliberately avoided Nanjun, which was the most likely to get out, and chose to fight for his life in Changsha, which is across the water, who can say that it is unwise?
……
Zhao Ying didn't know that he had avoided an assassination in Nanjun, and there was another assassination waiting for him ahead.
Today's Yunmengze is completely different from the small lakes like scattered pearls in later generations, and there is really a magnificent scene of clouds and clouds. This made Zhao Ying, who had been here in his previous life, quite emotional.
The vicissitudes of the sea, even the mountains, rivers and mountains can't withstand the erosion of time, how many traces can people leave in this world?
But he quickly put this feeling behind him, and asked Zhang Liang and Jing to send the information about Changsha County that Hei Bingtai and Jing had helped him collect during this time.
In this era, Changsha County started from Dongting in the north, crossed Wuling in the south, was close to the west bank of Poyang Lake and the Luoxiao Mountains in the east, and followed the Yuanshui River Basin in the west. It consists of nine counties, including Hunan, Luo, Yiyang, Yinshan, Lingling, Hengshan, Song and Guiyang. With Xiang County, which was later Changsha City as the center, it covered most of Hunan in later generations.
It is a veritable large county.
This time, it was found that the silk book in the belly of the fish was located at the junction of the Yunhu River and the Lianshui River in Xiangxian County, where the water flow converges, and there are many fishermen who rely on the water to eat, and even a small market has been spontaneously formed.
The most tricky part of the local government is that when the silk book in the belly of the fish is found, it is in the local market.
After the silk book was discovered, the news spread quickly.
Legend has it that the local villagers were shocked when they found a silk book hidden in the belly of the fish, and many villagers who were rushing to the market soon gathered to see this rarity.
As a result, some people passing by recognized the contents of the silk book.
This year, Zulong died!
This prophecy instantly caused a panic, because someone took advantage of the chaos to popularize the bloody case of Chu Boliang at the end of the year. The ghosts and gods warned him, and under the pretense of the hand of the messenger Chu Boliang, he returned a piece of jade that the first emperor threw into the river as a token!
As a result, Chu Boliang's entire family was slaughtered!
After the news spread, it immediately caused panic in the crowd.
The same prophecy, the same warning.
As a result, the crowd that had originally gathered to watch the lively crowd dispersed in an instant. Those who were well-informed and popularized the Chu Boliang case to everyone also took advantage of the chaos to disappear.
By the time the officials in the market found out that something was wrong and wanted to block the news, the news had already spread.
Therefore, the situation now is that there is no one who found the silk book.
And the news has already spread.
Even ignorant children know that Zulong died this year.
Although this information is more detailed than what he saw when he was in Xianyang, there are actually no clues, Zhao Ying raised his eyebrows, and ordered quite casually.
"Find a way, investigate it, and see if you can find the fishermen who set up the stall at that time......"
Although Zhao Ying knew in his heart, there was a high probability that he would not be able to find it. The local yamen could not let go of such an obvious clue, and he ordered so casually, in addition to having dates and not hitting a few poles, that is, to put on an attitude of carefully investigating the matter.
Let people understand that he came from afar this time to investigate this case, and he is investigating it very carefully!
He nodded in surprise.
"No, the villain will arrange ......"
Seeing that he was about to go out, Zhao Ying stretched out his hand to stop him.
"Remember, you have to check one by one, don't let go of any detail, as long as it is done by people, it will definitely leave clues, if necessary, you can find the local yamen to cooperate......
Shocked to hear this, he glanced up at Zhao Ying with some confusion, hesitated for a moment, and decided to remind His Royal Highness the eldest grandson of his own emperor.
"Your Highness, most of these officials of the yamen are locals, and the relationships inside are intertwined......
Zhao Ying saw that he was worried, and couldn't help but smile and waved his hand.
"It's okay, you just have to arrange it, I have other arrangements for this matter - investigating this kind of thing, meticulous and cumbersome, or are they local officials more handy to do......"
Seeing that Zhao Ying had other arrangements, he didn't say anything anymore and went out to find someone to arrange.
"Your Highness, this is to startle the snake......"
After the shock went out, Zhang Liang couldn't help frowning slightly, and looked at Zhao Ying, who was slowly looking through the information.
"Your Highness is not afraid that it will really surprise them, and they will not be able to hide ......"
Seeing that his most important arm helper was a little incomprehensible, Zhao Ying finally stopped what he was doing and raised his head.
"Ovary, is there anything you can't be surprised about until now?"
When Zhang Liang heard this, he was speechless.
Indeed, now that things are so big, His Royal Highness the Emperor Eldest Sun rushed to Changsha with people and horses, for what, at a glance, if you have the intention to hide, I am afraid that you have already disappeared.
Looking at Zhao Ying's extremely calm eyes, Zhang Liang suddenly thought of a possibility, and suddenly felt a pang in his heart, and couldn't help but gasp, and secretly clenched the fist in his sleeve.
Seeing that Zhang Liang finally realized his purpose, Zhao Ying slowly withdrew his gaze, leaned back in the chair, and gently pushed the information in his hand back to Zhang Liang.
The voice was calm and authentic.
"I want all the information of these local wealthy families, regardless of the type, the more detailed the better......"
"No!"
Zhang Liang stretched out his hand and grabbed the information in front of Zhao Ying, turned around and left. He knew what the next analysis meant, and he had never felt that the thin book in his hand would be so heavy that he almost lost his breath.
……
Almost at the same time.
Outside Changsha County, a secret meeting was being held in a spacious, but rather simple-looking manor.
“…… His Royal Highness, the eldest grandson of the emperor, came this time, not only with the sword of the First Emperor, but also brought an army of 3,000 Praetorian Guards, I am afraid that the one who came is not good, brothers, can there be a countermeasure......"
A middle-aged man dressed in cloud brocade, white and chubby, with a short beard, frowned slightly, and looked at the other people sitting in the study. Some of these people are older, they look gray, and even have a bit of old age, and some are like this fat middle-aged man, who is in the prime of life.
However, the one thing everyone has in common is that they all look a little pampered and extravagant.
All of them have a calm temperament.
If the local upper echelons of Changsha County see it, they will definitely be amazed, because in this inconspicuous manor in the eyes of outsiders, almost half of the wealthy families in Changsha County have gathered people.
"Brother Yun, why are you so nervous? That incident has long been known to everyone, our Changsha County, although the boy with a weeping hair, is also familiar with it, no more than the original Hedong meteorite, or Chu Boliang's matter, no matter how cruel and unkind His Majesty the First Emperor is, he can't slaughter hundreds of thousands of people in our Changsha County......"
Speaking of this, the middle-aged man who answered the call leisurely picked up the tea cup in front of him, slowly blew the tea foam floating on it, and took a sip gently, only then did he look faint.
"I have heard that our royal highness, the eldest grandson of the emperor, has always cherished feathers, has a reputation for benevolence and love, and has won the support of some fools and fools......
At this, he raised his eyebrows slightly.
"It's not necessarily a bad thing for us......"
After speaking, he picked up the teacup and looked leisurely, like a wise man with a bamboo in his chest.
Who knows, as soon as his words fell, before everyone's exclamation, there was an old man with decayed hair, barely holding a gray bun on the back of his head, and answered a sentence a little inappropriately.
"Bian family boy, if the eldest grandson of the emperor kills us, what should we do, don't forget, the blood stains of the sixteen families in Hedong have not dried up, and Yin Jian is not far ......away."
The voice was old, and even after saying these few words, he couldn't help but gasp a few times.
But as soon as the old man said this, the atmosphere in the study instantly froze, if it weren't for this worry, how could they secretly gather here at this sensitive time.
"Jing Lao, don't be alarmist, this time is different from Hedong County, Han Xin'er, born in a dilapidated family in Huaiyin, extremely poor, and earnest, and Zhao Mu is also insidious and vicious, after going to office, the contradictions between the Hedong families are continuous, and the grievances have been accumulated for a long time, so he dared to take risks, risked the disapproval of the world, and took the opportunity to kill more than ten families of the Hedong clan in one fell swoop......"
An old man who was thin but in good spirits, at this moment, put down the teacup in his hand and shook his head gently. He glanced around at the restless heads of the study room.
"And this time, the person in charge is His Royal Highness the Emperor's eldest grandson, whom I have known carefully as I have known this person carefully, although he is quite talented, but he is kind-hearted and known as benevolent. Shangjun proverb, it was he who persuaded the first emperor to save the local people, and then it was he who rescued the Mo apprentices who happened to be involved, and later, Xu Fu returned from overseas, and the poison pill case was discovered, and he did not hesitate to risk angering the first emperor to save the group of swaggering warlocks......"
With that, he looked around at the crowd again.
"As the head of the Bian family said, this person is ambitious, even if he is not kind-hearted, he is also a person who cherishes feathers, how can he learn from Han Xin and Zhao Mu and kill in Changsha?"
At this, he chuckled.
"Besides, we're not the idiots of Hedong. His Royal Highness the Emperor Eldest Sun has arrived in Changsha, how can we, who are the hosts, have any reason to neglect the guests? Isn't that a great deal of hospitality and full help? When the time comes, wouldn't it be reasonable to go all out to pursue and catch a few thieves who are trying to fight against the imperial court? ”
As soon as the old man's words came out, everyone was stunned at first, but even if they understood the meaning of the old man's words, they couldn't help but applaud.
"Zhang Weng is smart! When the time comes, we will be the heroes who will help the imperial court to clean up the place and arrest the anti-thieves. ”
The old man's words made everyone in the room suddenly seem to see the sun through the clouds, and their panicked thoughts suddenly disappeared. Many people were inspired to diverge their thinking and make up for it.
"His Royal Highness the Emperor Eldest Sun has toured the south so far, and as a local wealthy family, we will be a good student to entertain ......"
A party, in the end, turned into a meeting to discuss how to welcome the emperor's eldest grandson and cooperate with the emperor's eldest grandson to investigate the "traitor".
It wasn't until dusk that the inconspicuous carriages drove out of the manor one after another and scattered in all directions.
Yun Peng, as the master, was the last to leave.
By the time he arrived in the city, it was already twilight, and it was completely dark.
Tossing back and forth for a day, even if it was in the prime of life, I couldn't help but be a little tired, just thinking about having dinner, I went to the backyard early to rest, who knows, just entered the house, before the person got out of the carriage, he was disturbed by a chaotic cry outside.
He frowned and lifted the curtain impatiently.
"What's going on......"
"The head of the Qiqi family is the Yunfu ...... of the outer room"
Yunfu?
When Yun Peng heard this, he couldn't help but show a look of surprise in his eyes.
Yunfu is a person he knows, he is a son of the family, although he is not good-looking, but he works hard, and his temperament is gentle and honest, and he is now in charge of the family's expenditure accounts.
Never get into trouble.
"The head of the house, the head of the house, please be the master of the house, be the master of the villain......"
Seeing Yun Peng walking down from the carriage, Yun Fu immediately threw himself at Yun Peng's feet and kowtowed like a green onion.
Yun Peng saw that at this time, many family disciples had gathered around to watch, and he couldn't help frowning, and scolded with an unhappy expression.
"What are you doing here, don't you disperse quickly......"
As Yun Peng's voice fell, the people around him instantly dispersed.
Yun Peng turned around and looked at Yun Fu who was kneeling at his feet.
"Tell me something......
Only then did Yunfu get up from the ground with difficulty and cry to him, the head of the family. The more Yun Peng listened, the more his brows furrowed, and he looked at his relatives on the side with a calm face.
"Go, call the third young master over to me!"
When the third young master Yunyi was called over, he was still drunk, and the smell of alcohol on his body did not dissipate.
As soon as he entered the courtyard, he saw Yunfu standing beside his Ah Weng sadly, and he couldn't help but raise his eyebrows and scolded.
"This dog-like thing even ran to Ah Weng to sue me for ......"
"Bastard thing, run out and do nonsense, and don't kneel down for me!"
Seeing this, Yun Peng couldn't help frowning.
The third young master saw that his own Ah Weng was angry, so he restrained himself a little, and gave his own Ah Weng a salute without hesitation, and then defended without care.
"Ah Weng, you can't blame me for this matter, it was his mother-in-law who seduced me in front of me, and I drank some wine, so I couldn't hold it for a while - since he wasn't happy, then I would go back and give it back to him, and I Yunyi didn't lack a woman from his family......"
Yun Fu was so angry by these words that he trembled all over, and he was extremely sad and angry.
