Chapter 773: Two Identities
Xue Daoguang told the story, obviously the Jin Danmen had worked hard, and they were concerned about an inconspicuous magnate in the court, the son-in-law of Zhao Hao, the king of Xu, and Shi Che who inspected the eastern part of Bianliang during the Yuan You period. At the beginning, Zhao Shiju's case involved Zhao Hao, Zhao Shiju's medical officer Liu Yu once sought an errand in Zhao Hao's palace, Zhao Hao couldn't help but be a little unclear, if he met an emperor who liked to be implicated, Zhao Hao would definitely not be able to escape, but Song Shenzong didn't care.
Shi Che lost his post of inspector during the Zhezong period and disappeared from the public's sight, but Jin Danmen found that Shi Che opened a Donghai trading house, specializing in Goryeo business from the sea, but found a lot of Jurchen goods from the Donghai trading house, and with the rise of the Jin Kingdom, the business of the Donghai trading house became bigger and bigger. Shrimp has a shrimp road, Jin Danmen didn't think about it at first, but when Yang Zhi said that Li Shining was probably still alive, Jin Danmen worked hard to determine the matter.
Yang Zhi smiled and asked Wang Laozhi: "The master was in Bianliang for two years just for this?"
Wang Laozhi did not hide it: "After Li Shining cheated his death, he actually found a lot of like-minded people in the Central Plains, including the exiled Qin Biao, Qin Biao was a member of the Qin family in Bianliang; after the death of Emperor Shenzong, Qin Biao was brought back from the exile by the Qin family for a lot of money, and Qin Biao went to live in Jeju for fear that he would be too dazzling in Bianliang. I also heard Qin Biao get drunk after a drink and said that Li Shining sent someone to look for him, but he didn't see Li Shining in person, so he couldn't figure out whether it was true or not, but someone came to tell Qin Biao that the place he went to was a bitter cold place in the north. I originally thought it was Yanyun Palace, but later when the Jurchens rose, I thought of Wanyanbu, and found a secret in the East China Sea Commercial Bank, so I cheated to death and ran away. ”
Yang Zhi understood that the discovery of Wanyan should be the credit of the ascetic people, Wang Laozhi did not tell Xue Daoguang the whole thing, as for the Donghai Commercial Bank, in front of a master like Wang Laozhi, there is no secret at all; Yang Zhi nodded and said: "I know the ins and outs, and I also know that Zhao Shiju's dragon knife is fake, no matter who wants to throw bricks to attract jade, they have not led the jade out." So now you say, in addition to going to Liaodong to find Li Shining, what other clues do you have?"
Xue Daoguang smiled and said: "The dragon knife pays attention to chance, but there are two people who have a relationship with Li Shining, Xie Shi and Song Gongming. ”
Yang Zhi was really taken aback, he only doubted the intentions of these two people, but he had no clue for more than two years, the two of them were extremely resourceful and cautious, Yang Zhi could basically be said to have made no progress; Yang Zhi nodded and said, "Please elaborate." ”
Xue Daoguang said: "The junior brother did not have any shocked looks, indicating that he had suspicion of the two of them, but it was a lot more convenient, I went to Xie Shi's hometown and found that Xie Shi was Xie Qiankun's descendant, Xie Shi's father also worshiped Li Shining's door, but he did not travel to the Central Plains with Li Shining." Song Gongming has an innocent resume and seems to be a rising official, but Song Gongming is not a native of Chuzhou, and many of his materials and experiences are in other places, such as Jiangzhou when he was studying, and Yan'an Mansion when he joined the army. ”
As soon as Xie Shi's identity was revealed, it was basically confirmed, and Yang Zhi asked, "What about Song Jiang, the span of the location is a little larger, is there anything wrong?"
"On the surface, there is nothing wrong with it, there are more people who have experienced this. Xue Daoguang's face became angry: "But I didn't find Song Gongming's study experience in Jiangzhou, that private school gentleman has left Jiangzhou for many years, and the neighbors on the left and right have moved away, almost a dozen or so families on one street are gone, and a fire even broke out in the street next door, killing a family." In Yan'an Prefecture, the army that Song Gongming joined was wiped out in a battle with Western Xia in the second year after Song Gongming left, and none of the 500 people survived. ”
In other words, these two people who knew Song Gongming were either missing or dead, and such a coincidence no longer needs to be verified, in the eyes of Yang Zhi and Xue Daoguang, it means that Song Gongming must have a problem; Yang Zhi pondered and said: "This does not mean that Song Gongming and Li Shining are connected. ”
Xue Daoguang said appreciatively: "Song Gongming is Shi Che's righteous son, and one of the biggest businesses of the Donghai Commercial Bank was to send salt to the Northeast, and there was no shortage of salt in Goryeo, they almost bought it from Cangzhou and Dengzhou, and the salt was given to the Jurchens." Song Gongming was in charge of this business in Chuzhou, and as there was no need to transport salt, Song Gongming left Chuzhou and went to Bianliang. However, Song Gongming was careful, and in order not to alarm him, we investigated for several years. ”
Yang Zhi thought for a while and asked: "During the investigation, did you find out that Song Gongming was related to Meihuamen, the thief Song Sanlang, and Song Baoyi under Tong Guan?"
Xue Daoguang said seriously: "The junior brother's vision is really broad, Song Gongming did have contacts with Meihuamen, and he was contacted through Qiu Xiaoyi, the owner of the proud building, and the proud building has a branch in Chuzhou, which is one of Song Gongming's favorite restaurants. I followed Song Gongming, and it was Qiu Xiaoyi's assistant Yan Qianjian who connected with him, and the content of the conversation was about some stolen goods from Meihuamen to be sold in Chuzhou. ”
Meihuamen is basically operating in Hebei and Shandong, and it is undoubtedly a wise move to go to Huainan to sell stolen goods, Yang Zhichang sighed and said: "Thank you, senior brother, there is enough news for so much." ”
Xue Daoguang left his contact address in Bianliang and Chang'an and quietly left, his itinerary had been decided, and he went to Luofu Mountain Siming to see if there were some classics of the Demon Sect; Xue Daoguang believed that Yang Zhi's manpower was more abundant than his own, and he would definitely be able to find out what was going on. Yang Zhi listened to Xue Daoguang's footsteps disappearing on the roof, looked up and asked Wang Laozhi, "Master, what have you found all these years?"
Wang Laozhi relieved himself from his contemplation and said: "We found out Li Shining's five stores in Bohai, Pingzhou, Youzhou, Dengzhou, and Qingzhou. Xue Daoguang came this time, it can be said that there has been great progress, it should be that after Song Gongming went to Bianliang, he alarmed some people, so more and more news was provided to Xue Daoguang. ”
Yang Zhi pondered and said: "It's not too late to know now, it's just that Zhang Jue killed Gao Qigong and others, and the Song-Jin War is about to break out, so it is necessary to pull out all Li Shining's chess pieces before the war breaks out." This matter must be kept secret, and Li Shining must not be made to think that it is our hands, and he must be suspicious of Jin Guo. Master, the person providing the news can't be someone under Li Shining, right?"
Good steel should be used on the blade, if Wang Laozhi had spies around Li Shining, Yang Zhi was willing to leave these contact points, and instead find a way to make Li Shining's people clash with the Jin State.
