Chapter 244: Check!
"Have you seen the faces of those thieves?"
Guo An forcibly suppressed the anger in his heart, directly interrupted the words of these old men, and continued to ask.
"Nope!"
The old men shook their heads again and again.
"Those thieves kept their faces covered when they saw me and others!"
Guo An asked again: "Do you remember, where did you see those thieves?" How can I, the soldiers of the Yan Palace, find those thieves? β
The old men glanced at each other, and everyone's eyes were full of resentment, and since they had already been recruited, they no longer continued to hide it.
"Back to Guo Changshi, when I was summoned by those thieves, I sat in a carriage all the way, and I sat for more than half an hour every time, and I didn't know the direction."
"However, I remember that the thief's house is not very large, but the house and the walls are very new."
"Also, Guo Changshi, those thieves have big dogs, at least seven or eight, and each of them is very ferocious!"
"Guo Changshi, no matter how those thieves' carriages go around, we always feel that the thieves' lair is near Zhangjiawan Wharf, or in Tongzhou City......"
"Yes, yes, although they blindfolded me, I have lived in Tongzhou City for a lifetime, and I will never admit my mistake......"
As he spoke, the old men hurriedly kowtowed to Zhu Biao and Zhu Di again, this time it was real, and after a few clicks, blood had begun to flow on their foreheads.
"Cao Min and others dare to insult and slander His Royal Highness King Yan, and even deceive His Royal Highness the Prince, they deserve death!
The grass people and others are willing to apologize with death, and ask His Royal Highness the Crown Prince and His Royal Highness King Yan to save our families, they are all innocent......"
"Please also ask His Royal Highness the Prince, His Royal Highness King Yan to ......"
"Okay, okay, don't knock, wait until those thieves are caught, and then the king will punish you!"
Zhu Di snorted coldly, and after stopping the old men, he looked at Zhu Biao on the side.
"Big brother, with the guards of my Yanwang Mansion, it is difficult to find out those thieves. Therefore, I also asked the eldest brother to give an order, let the Jinyi guard of Beiping Mansion take out his hand, focusing on the search of Tongzhou, as well as the mansion within a radius of fifty miles from Zhangjiawan Wharf. β
Zhu Biao nodded slightly and looked at the officials below.
"Where are the thousands of households in Jinyi Wei in Beiping Mansion?"
No one answered for a long time.
"Huh?"
Zhu Di frowned, looked at the officials, and couldn't help but be surprised.
"Jinyi Wei Qianhu Pu Sanji didn't come?"
"Back to His Royal Highness, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince doesn't seem to have summoned Jinyi Wei Qianhu to come!" Below, Li Wang remembered something and hurriedly reported.
Hearing this, a trace of embarrassment flashed in Zhu Biao's eyes.
He seemed to have subconsciously forgotten about the Jinyi Guard of Beiping Mansion.
Zhu Di said directly: "Quickly send someone to summon that Pu Sanji." Also, pay attention to whether anyone is following you after you! β
"Whoa!"
Li Wang replied with a solemn face, and walked out quickly.
Soon, two waves of Yanwangfu guards, one after the other, headed towards the Jinyi Wei Thousand Households.
And this will.
In the Jinyi Wei Thousand Households, Pu Sanji was also restless.
Although he is only a thousand households, he is also a five-grade official of the imperial court, and in Beiping Mansion, he represents the eyes and ears of His Majesty.
Now, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince has summoned the political envoys, the inspection envoys, and the commanders in the command department, as well as the governors and experiences of the eighth and seventh grades, but there is no edict to him.
With this kind of treatment, it is difficult not to doubt that His Royal Highness the Crown Prince has all the opinions of his Beiping Mansion Jinyi Wei Qianhu.
Fortunately, Pu Sanji and the hundreds of households only waited anxiously in the thousand households for a while.
There were guards in the Yanwang Mansion who came, and His Royal Highness the Crown Prince summoned him.
Pu Sanji and a group of thousands of households couldn't help but be overjoyed.
However, the guard told with a solemn face, "His Royal Highness King Yan has an order, and I also ask Pu Qianhu to secretly send someone to follow me and others to see if there are any thieves following!" β
"Huh?"
Pu Sanji and the hundreds of households suddenly turned grim.
This smell of intrigue is all too familiar to them.
The guard said again: "His Royal Highness the Crown Prince also means this!" β
"Wechen obeys!"
Pu Sanji hurriedly responded, turned around and said to a hundred households on his side: "Dong Jin, you bring more than ten brothers, change into sackcloth, and follow behind me!" β
"Whoa!"
That Dong Jinbaihu hurriedly answered.
Immediately, he walked down.
When Pu Sanji and a few hundred households followed the guards of Yanwang's Mansion and walked towards Yanwang's Mansion, there were more than a dozen inconspicuous ordinary people behind the group.
It's just that these ordinary people have steel knives hidden around their waists.
β¦β¦
"Weichen Pu Sanji see His Royal Highness the Prince, see His Royal Highness King Yan!"
After entering the main hall, Pu Sanji felt abnormal, but the crown prince Zhu Biao and Yan Wang Zhu Di were sitting above unharmed, which made Pu Sanji breathe a sigh of relief.
"Get up!"
"Thank you, Your Highness the Prince!"
As Pu Sanji got up, Zhu Biao said with a solemn face: "Pu Sanji, in the past few days when I was inspecting Beiping in this palace, there were thieves who acted secretly, kidnapped the families and grandchildren of these old men, and threatened these old men to slander King Yan with their lives, do you know about this?" β
Which bastard came out to make trouble for him?
Pu Sanji was taken aback, and hurriedly said: "His Royal Highness the Crown Prince forgives the sin, and Weichen is negligent!" β
Zhu Biao said: "In this way, you can ask carefully, cooperate with the guards of Yanwangfu, and find out the thieves behind the scenes for the palace, especially the family members and grandchildren of these old men, they must be rescued!" β
"Yes, Your Highness!"
Pu Sanji hurriedly responded, and asked the old men carefully again.
Jin Yiwei is worthy of doing this business, and when he asks questions, he is much more detailed and comprehensive than Guo An.
Even, after asking, he directly locked the thief's house in a few places.
In this regard, Zhu Biao and Zhu Di both directly asked Pu Sanji to take people to search.
At the same time, Yan Shanwei also sent out two thousand households, and Zhu Biao also sent Cao Zhen with a hundred guards.
Just when Zhu Di, Zhu Biao and others were dispatching troops in a vigorous manner.
In a mansion in Peiping Province.
A group of people are also gathering together in secret.
"Those old men have been brought into the Yanwang Mansion!"
"Those officials from the Inspectorate Department have already taken the pleadings written by us and others to the Yanwang Mansion!"
"Hmph, even if those old men's clumsy framing is seen through by Zhu Di, the king of Yan, even the prince doesn't believe it......
However, as long as those old immortals die directly in the Yanwang Mansion, it is best to die at night, without knowing why......
Just wait for this matter to get out, Zhu Di, the king of Yan, will inevitably be extremely guilty. β
"At that time, it will be difficult for everyone in the world to stop, no matter what, the Jingshi will definitely punish Zhu Di!"
"Zhang Qi, did the person who sent the letter to Jingshi send out?"
"Gong Li, the student is going to wait for the Yan Wangfu to completely open before sending it out, so reassuring!"
While a few people were talking, a butler walked in from outside.
"Master, just now the Yan Wangfu summoned Jinyi Wei Qianhu Pu Sanji in...... In less than a stick of incense, Pu Sanji took a few brocade guards and hurriedly walked out! β
"In addition, Tang Yun, the commander of Yanshanwei, also personally led a group of Yanshanwei generals to the Yanshanwei camp!"
"Hmph, those old immortals are really useless!"
"Li Gong, what should I do?"
"There is no need to panic, those old and immortal children and grandchildren are all raised in our mansion, as long as they don't want to cut off their children and grandchildren, they will never dare to talk nonsense!"
"But Li Gong, the students are always a little restless, those brocade guards are all dog-nosed, as long as they are fed a little taste, we will be in danger......"
"What's the concern? Beiping Mansion is so big, no matter how powerful he is in Jinyiwei, can he still find us in these few days? β
"By that time, the Jingshi has already made a noise, the emperor is shaken, and after a thorough investigation, we don't believe that in the past few years, these brocade guards in Beiping Mansion have not colluded with King Yan......
Even if these vicious dogs don't have that guts, Jingshi will have someone to greet them, so that they don't dare to check randomly! β
"Li Gong is wise!"
"It's not that the old man is wise, it's such a big interest in trading with Goryeo, Zhu Di actually wants to occupy it alone, and he doesn't want to think about it, how can he ...... it?"
"Okay, you will send someone to pass the news to the Jingshi as soon as possible. The sooner those people in Jingshi act, the sooner the matter in Beiping will end! β
"Yes, Gong Li, the student will send someone to deliver the letter!"
"In addition, after all the officials in the Yanwang Mansion have dispersed, I will send someone to secretly find out the people who are responsible for the inspection and the political envoy."
"Yes, Gong Li!"
β¦β¦
Meantime.
The atmosphere in Beiping City became tense directly.
In the past, those brocade guards who had disappeared all began to patrol on the streets of Beiping City.
The people who accompanied him, as well as all the officials in Beiping City.
In addition, there are hundreds of Jinyi guards, and a group of Yanshan guards, who went to Tongzhou.
In a tea shop, looking at such a scene on the street, a few tea customers with good deeds suddenly looked curious.
"Why are there so many brocade guards on the street today? Could it be that something big has happened? β
"Yes, it's been a year, and I haven't seen so many brocade guards and servants patrolling the streets!"
"Could it be that His Royal Highness the Crown Prince......"
A few people were talking, and suddenly there was a discussion on the tea table on the side, which immediately attracted the attention of several people.
"I heard that several old men at Zhangjiawan Wharf in Tongzhou went to the Yanwang Palace to shout grievances with blood letters today!"
"Why is it the old man at the Zhangjiawan Wharf in Tongzhou?"
"They are all shouting grievances to His Royal Highness the Crown Prince!"
"Go to the Yan Palace, shout grievances to His Royal Highness the Prince? His Royal Highness King Yan is jealous and hateful in Beiping Mansion, why don't you shout injustice to His Royal Highness King Yan? β
"Tsk, what if I go to complain to His Royal Highness the Crown Prince about King Yan?"
"Huh? How is this possible? β
"Have you seen these brocade guards and servants outside?"
"What does it matter? β¦β¦ Well? It's hard to ......"
"Shhhh I heard that there was another hidden story about the expropriation and relocation of the land at Zhangjiawan Wharf that year...... Many people's fertile land was forcibly expropriated by King Yan, and there even seemed to be many ordinary people who were killed by the officials of King Yan's mansion......
The family is ruined...... It's really miserable! β
"However, up and down the Yanwang Mansion, he was kind to people in Beiping Mansion and never oppressed the people!"
"You are so naΓ―ve, in this era, for some money, what can't those powerful people do? In particular, that one is still a prince, even if he does it too much, those officials in Beiping Mansion don't dare to care......"
"Shhh...... So? β
"You know what I know, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is known to be virtuous, and he shouldn't be able to shield King Yan's ......"
"But...... Yes! β
Before the man could finish speaking, he jumped up with a frightened face.
On the whole head, there is a head of tea leaves, steaming.
