Daqian, Beijing, Qingshi Lane, Liufu.

Not long after the Daqian court meeting ended, Liu Ming's study was filled with a stack of copied court contents.

Under the dark, Liufu had already set up the lights, lighting the way home for pedestrians in advance.

Liu Mansion, in Liu Ming's study, there is a stove baking next to Liu Ming, sitting on the edge of the bookcase, a cup of tea in front of him is steaming, exuding a faint fragrance.

Today's dinner, Liu Ming specially asked Uncle Liu to take care of his subordinates a little earlier than before, and after eating early, he immediately came to the study to watch the content of today's court meeting.

After a long time, Liu Ming finished reading the stack of contents about the court meeting, stood up and stretched, and threw the stack of papers into the stove after reading it, burned it and turned into flying ashes.

In fact, Liu Ming is only interested in the affairs discussed by the court, and he is just interested in understanding it.

When Liu Jingyue was alive, she often taught Liu Ming that in business, don't go to the troubled waters of the imperial court.

As the people of the great cadres, you only need to do things that are beneficial to the people of the great cadres, and do not participate in the intrigues in the court.

Therefore, Liu Ming only understands it, firstly, it is purely personal curiosity, secondly, as a businessman, he knows the current affairs in order to do business better, and thirdly, he at least let Liu Ming's Wantong Chamber of Commerce know that the north is estimated to be gradually stable, and the south still needs to take corresponding measures.

However, there was something that Liu Ming was more interested in, and it was Emperor Qiandi who asked Shadow Dragon Wei to send it to Liu Ming.

It is about the cause of the turmoil in the rivers and lakes and the people behind the scenes are Hua Ji Yu Qiao and Nanshu Emperor Li Xuanzhang, among them, the Qin family is just a sharp blade, let's not talk about it.

The letter indicated that Emperor Qian knew that Liu Ming was investigating traces of Hua Ji's father Yu Shun, and specially told Liu Ming to see if he could gain something.

According to the letter, Master Li in the small mountain village back then can basically be determined to be Li Xuanzhang, and Hua Ji's achievements that year and this year are all due to Li Xuanzhang.

And the Shuzhou rebellion, the Southern Shu soldiers out of the Sword Pavilion and the chaos in the rivers and lakes have all been determined, all of which were from the hands of Li Xuanzhang, the emperor of Southern Shu.

In the rivers and lakes of Daqian, the person who is now sitting behind the scenes is probably Hua Ji who is in full control.

This made Emperor Qian faintly feel that Yu Shun's disappearance might have another hidden situation, but he had no time to take care of it, so Liu Ming was investigating the matter, so he handed it over to Liu Ming to investigate.

Emperor Qian felt that even if there was no benefit in doing such a thankless thing in the end, it would definitely have an impact on Li Xuanzhang, the emperor of Southern Shu.

This is Emperor Qian's personal judgment, and it is the feeling he has as an emperor looking at the overall situation of the world.

Ying Longwei's letter said that to find Yu Shun's traces, Liu Ming's Wantong Chamber of Commerce could act cheaply, asking people to give people and money to money.

After reading the letter sent by Emperor Qian, who took out of his arms, Liu Ming also merged it into the stove and turned into wisps of green smoke.

Liu Ming couldn't help but shook his head with a wry smile, I am afraid that Emperor Qian's manpower is also very tight now, if he really has the energy, why do he need to entrust Liu Ming with everything, he can only find the local government yamen to help.

As for asking for money, Liu Ming was the most helpless, he was the president of the Wantong Chamber of Commerce, and he went to ask Emperor Qiandi for money, so I, the president of the Wantong Chamber of Commerce, don't want to lose face, the Liu family is the most important thing to lack is money.

Anyway, I had already started to investigate, and I didn't care that Emperor Qiandi had asked for another verbal commission, and he still sent such useful news.

However, combined with these news, Liu Ming thought about it carefully, it may be as Emperor Qiandi said in his heart, there is this hidden secret.

Ying Longwei once checked Li Xuanzhang's heels, and his ancestral home was indeed from Shannan Village, Fucheng, Pingzhou, and he was once a scholar who failed to make the list.

One of the strange things is that Li Xuanzhang has been in Shannan Village for so long, why did he look at Yu Qiaoqiao when he was young.

There are so many children in Shannan Village, and there is no shortage of good talents, but only the young Yu Yuqiao is accepted as a student.

And since he is simply a teacher, he should uphold the principle of teaching without class, and he can teach all the Mongolian children in Shannan Village together, and the teacher will teach ten in class.

Of course, these can also be said to be the reasons for Li Xuanzhang's personal preferences back then, but the most suspicious point is that according to the timeline, Li Xuanzhang may have already entered the Great Perfection of the Liangyi Realm back then, even if he didn't arrive, it was almost the same.

At first, Liu Ming thought about it after reading the letter, and suspected that if Yu Shun really disappeared, it might be related to Li Xuanzhang, but Liu Ming immediately denied a thought.

The problem is here, maybe Li Xuanzhang can't control the death of Yu Qiaoqiao's mother Wang Qiao.

However, Yu Shunxue sent Yu Yu, who was only six years old at the time, in front of Li Xuanzhang's door, and it was impossible not to know about Li Xuanzhang's cultivation.

So it stands to reason that since Li Xuanzhang, as Yu Miaoqiao's teacher, has no reason to let Yu Shun go to death, and is willing to adopt Yu Miaoqiao later, then his heart is obvious, and the purpose is not pure.

According to the analysis, Yu Mantis, who was successful in cultivating back then, brought the capital of Tianzong to reappear in the bloody and bloody wind of killing in the rivers and lakes, and won the title of Flower Ji on the other side, it can be seen that Yu Shunxue's disappearance after entering Cui's mansion at night had nothing to do with Li Xuanzhang.

Now, according to what Liu Ming confirmed, Yu Shun is not dead, but only disappeared back then.

Based on this condition, the problem is even greater, if Yu Shun was really rescued by a master and never died, why hasn't he recognized his daughter for many years?

In order to hold the hatred of his parents, Yu Yuqiao killed everyone in the rivers and lakes knew it, and even ordinary people knew the reason, and made up stories to scare their disobedient children, and it didn't make sense that Yu Shun, who was not dead, would not know.

Seeing his own daughter with blood on her hands on the rivers and lakes, being chased and killed, shouting and beating, and suffering, will Yu Shun, as a father, appear?

The only possibility is that Yu Shun is hiding from something, avoiding factors that may endanger himself or his daughter Yu Miaoqiao's life.

So after comprehensive analysis, it is very likely that this person is the teacher of the Nanshu Emperor, that is, the teacher of Hua Ji Yu - Li Xuanzhang.

Thinking of this, Liu Ming couldn't help but feel a chill in his back, what could make Li Xuanzhangbu such a big situation, Liu Ming couldn't figure it out.

But Liu Ming knew that as long as Yu Shun's whereabouts were found, everything would naturally fall into place.

In addition to the matter of the court, Liu Ming specially explained the reason to Uncle Liu about Yu Shun, after all, there may be more things in the future of the Wantong Chamber of Commerce, and Liu Ming is flawless.

This matter is very important, and Liu Ming is not very relieved to hand it over to Fei Xiong, there may be two big people involved behind the scenes, the old monsters on the rivers and lakes, and if you don't get it right, you may have to leak.

Uncle Liu was promoted to the Liangyi Realm, his cultivation was already stable, and he was always steady, so Liu Ming was more at ease.

After listening to Liu Ming's explanation, Uncle Liu couldn't help but sigh slightly: "I didn't expect that this unjust case involved so many things, just like pumping out the water of the entire Tianmen River in a pond." But looking back, not only did Hua Ji's mother Wang Qiao die in vain, and even the Cui family, who committed the crime, estimated that they had already been in someone else's chess game until they died. ”

As if Uncle Liu's words touched one of Liu Ming's nerves, he heard Liu Ming mutter: "Cui family, chess game." Cui Jia, chess game ......"

Before Uncle Liu could ask Liu Ming what was wrong, Liu Ming suddenly seemed to have a clear understanding and said: "Uncle Liu, if you are tired, go to Wenzhongting Mansion immediately to see if you are still alive." ”

Although Uncle Liu was confused, he didn't ask more when he saw Liu Ming's solemn face and his very serious look.

Quickly walked out of the study, one by one, and disappeared into the night.

After Uncle Liu left, Liu Ming kept lying on the chair with his eyes closed and waiting.

After a while, Uncle Liu hurried back from outside, climbed over the wall directly, and entered Liu Ming's study.

"Dead, it is estimated that it has been two or three days, his face is purple, he should have died of suffocation, there are traces of struggle on the bed, it can be concluded that it is homicide. Uncle Liu told Liu Ming about the situation in Wenzhongting.

Liu Ming nodded and said: "It seems that my guess is not wrong, Li Xuanzhang of Nanshu has a three-line linkage in this matter, and it is estimated that he also thought of this step, for fear that someone with a heart would notice the clues, so he cleaned up some relevant people." ”

Uncle Liu still didn't quite understand: "Young master, do you mean that the Yu family had a relationship with Li Xuanzhang when I heard about it?"

"Well, but I'm also guessing, but now that Wen Zhongting has been killed, I can basically be sure that the Yu family is in it, whether it is Wang Qiao being killed, or Hua Ji taking revenge and being hunted down, there is Li Xuanzhang's shadow in it. ”

Uncle Liu still didn't understand the reason and asked, "Young Master, why can you judge it like this?"

Liu Ming smiled slightly and said, "Uncle Liu, think about it, what is the most in our Liufu." ”

Uncle Liu didn't think about it at all, blurted out, and said proudly: "Money, the rich world is not blowing." ”

Liu Ming looked at Uncle Liu with a smile, and Uncle Liu thought about it and suddenly realized.

At that time, Wen Zhongting, a servant of the Ministry of Officials, definitely did not have so much money to invite these powerful forces on the rivers and lakes to hunt down and kill Hua Ji for revenge, although the face of a servant of the Ministry of Officials is not small, but it is not too big to put it on the rivers and lakes, at least it is difficult to use it as real money, it depends on where it is.

So the premise of the five families and one village back then was that there were huge benefits to be taken, especially the trapped dragon village back then, this gang of gangs of rivers and lakes with the nature of horse bandits, isn't it just money.

As the saying goes: money makes the devil grind, and that's it.

Obviously, it is very likely that Li Xuanzhang or Li Xuanzhang's people sent a lot of money to Wen Zhongting back then, that is, revenge funds, otherwise how could Wen Zhongting, a servant of the ministry, fight with Hua Ji who was in the rivers and lakes.

It is unreasonable in public and powerless in selfishness.

The Four Elephant Realm that was sent to Fucheng to protect Cui Wen was just a favor from Liufu in order to repay Wen Zhongting, but he didn't want to be hated by Hua Ji many years later.

"That Wen Zhongting was killed, and there is no accurate message to ask, isn't it difficult to confirm what you guessed, young master?" After Uncle Liu figured it out, he felt that Wen Zhongting's death was a pity, and he lost a line that could be traced.

Liu Ming shook his head disappreciably and said, "It's okay, Uncle Liu, have you forgotten what I said." As long as we find Yu Shun, everything will fall into place. As for Wen Zhongting, he was just used as a knife by others, and he was also a poor person. ”

Yes, there is definitely something hateful about poor people.

This river and lake is still too chaotic
