Chapter 5 Sister and Brother Team Up to Defeat the Enemy (10)
Shen Deyi has been feeling more and more depressed recently, he vaguely feels that the actions taken by Murong Yun this time are extraordinary, and they are very different from the routine he originally followed.
Shen Deyi thought: "No matter how you sneak in, you will know the prison, Whether the people in the police department are Murong Yun himself or not, and it doesn't matter whether the rampant attack on the jewelry store near the Confucius Temple and the Sanshan Street gambling house was done by Murong Yun himself, but this time and again the positive action, it must be Murong Yun planning behind it, now, Murong Yun seems to have changed a person, in the face of the pursuit and killing order issued by our family, he changed from a passive response to an active attack, broke into the capital governor alone, and infiltrated the police department alone, especially what is even more hateful is that Murong Yun will actually break into the jewelry store and gambling house, destroying our family's way of making money, this is a very ruthless move, Murong Yun has recently specifically sought out our family's weakness, it is too hatefulγ β
Mu Jinbao was stunned in the face of Shen Deyi's reprimand, he felt aggrieved and afraid, Shen Deyi has always loved him more, rarely scolded him so fiercely as today, he felt that he was doing his best in the past few days, and he didn't dare to be sloppy at all, he chose Xie Zhenfu to explore Murong Yun's traces, this choice was not wrong, no matter what, Xie Zhenfu brought back the captured guards, but he was scolded by Shen Deyi, he felt very aggrieved; γ Mu Jinbao has been with Shen Deyi for a long time, and he rarely sees Shen Deyi being angry like this.
At this time, Mu Jinbao saw that Shen Deyi was silent, and he said cautiously to Shen Deyi: "Father-in-law, something has happened, don't continue to be angry, everyone knows that you have always been very strategic, now think about it, what should we do." Listen to you, child. As long as you give an order, the child will definitely go to Murong Yun and fight hard!"
"Now is not the time to work hard, the key is to figure out what Murong Yun wants to do, our family vaguely feels behind Murong Yun. There are high-ranking people who are instructing. His style of action is compared to what he did before. Everything has changed, and the moves are more vicious, and now we can only step up our investigation. At the moment, it is not enough to rely on Xie Zhenfu you designated to investigate, our family must find someone to help investigate, and the jewelry store and gambling house also need to send competent people to guard, and our family's important financial resources cannot be broken. Shen Deyi said.
"Ask the father-in-law to make a decision, the child will follow your orders, and if you agree, the child will personally take someone to guard the jewelry shop and the gambling house, and the child promises that as long as the child goes to protect it, the jewelry store and the gambling house will be safe!" Mu Jinbao said.
"'Little bag', you are such a stupid boy, can you turn a corner with your brains? If you go to guard the jewelry shop and the gambling house, won't it be tantamount to telling everyone that the jewelry shop and the gambling house are run by our family? Once this secret is made public, what will the ministers of the DPRK and China think of our family? If the emperor knows about it, can he allow our family to do this? Besides, you are not suitable to be a guard in the shop, it is not your advantage to deal with all kinds of people, your advantage is to lead the guards in the metropolitan prison, you are good at martial arts, you are the most trusted son of our family, you take the guards to guard the metropolitan governor, our family can rest assured. Shen Deyi said.
"The child listens to his father-in-law, and he will definitely protect the governor and your residence in the future, but there is a lack of capable people in the jewelry store and the gambling house, what should we do?" asked Mu Jinnang.
"You're right, the shop needs to be guarded by capable people, but now there are no competent people around to go, it seems that I have to let Young Eunuch Huang Jiu'an take people in civilian clothes to guard, originally, he doesn't know that our family runs these two shops, but now there is no one available, so he can only send him, and he will go to guard, and at the same time, he can also find out the whereabouts of the people who came to attack the store this time. Shen Deyi said.
"Father-in-law, how did the jewelry store near the Confucius Temple and the gambling house on Sanshan Street be attacked?
"The night before, in the first half of the night, the jewelry store was still open, but it was about to close the shop, and there were very few people in the store at this time, and suddenly, a young man in white strode into the store, shouting loudly to find the shopkeeper, and the keeper of the counter called the shopkeeper out of the shopkeeper, and when the young man saw that the shopkeeper had come out, he asked, 'Are you the shopkeeper here?' The shopkeeper saw that the man came in a dignified manner, and behaved in a dashing manner, and decided that he was a big customer, so he said to him very warmly and politely: ' It is Wang Yongquan who is the shopkeeper here, is this the first time for this boy to come to our store? If the boy has any orders, please say that he must be attentive in the next place!' However, the young man said arrogantly and unreasonably, "Has Shen Deyi come recently?" He owes Ben Gongzi a large sum of silver, Ben Gongzi knows, he is the backstage owner of this jewelry store, Ben Gongzi is here to collect debts from him, you are the shopkeeper, quickly take out the treasure of the town store in the store, Ben Gongzi heard that there is a night pearl in your store, quickly take it out, otherwise, this Gongzi has to smash your store first, and it will be Shen Deyi to repay the debt!' As soon as Wang Yongquan heard the threatening words of the young man, he knew that the comer was not good, because few people knew that our family was the backstage owner who controlled the jewelry store, and he knew that the young man was here to find fault, he hurriedly glanced at the people next to him, and asked people to find the samurai who guarded the store, but the six big men besieged the young man together, but they were all defeated under the steel fan of the young man, Wang Yongquan saw that the warriors were defeated, he was very scared, and wanted to escape temporarily, but he was caught by the young man, and was slapped several times, and then he was pressed to the ground, the young man took out the necklace on the cabinet and tied Wang Yongquan, Wang Yongquan did not dare to struggle, for fear of tearing the necklaceThe strange thing is that the young man did not take away the jewels in the store, but only threatened the shopkeeper and said: "This time, I will spare you as the shopkeeper, let you go and pass the word to Shen Deyi, and prepare the night pearl as much as possible, and this son will definitely take the night pearl next time he comes!" 'Little bag', look at it, our family has been humiliated like this, can we bear this breath?" Shen Deyi said angrily.
"It's so hateful, when the kid catches this young bastard, you'll have to skin him!" Mu Jinbao said angrily.
"Obviously, if it wasn't Murong Yun who came to the jewelry store to make trouble, it must be the person instructed by Murong Yun, judging from the situation told by the shopkeeper Wang, the young man's behavior was very similar to Murong Yun, he behaved chicly and acted keenly, and the weapon he used was the steel fan that Murong Yun was used to, and the young man broke into the jewelry store very rampantly, only slapped the shopkeeper Wang a few times, neither injured the warrior who guarded the shop, nor injured Wang Yongquan, and did not snatch any jewelry, he named and asked our family for the night pearl, he was deliberately challenging our family, so this person is very likely to be Murong Yun, He must have investigated it in advance, and saw that the jewelry store was our family's treasure, so he deliberately came to make trouble, this is a change of method to compete with our family, this is Murong Yun's typical style of acting. Shen Deyi inferred with confidence.
Mu Jinbao listened to Shen Deyi's story, and he kept thinking: "The secret matter of the stepfather's quietly opening a jewelry store, even the people in the prison know it, only a very few people know about it, and only the young eunuch Li in the police department knows, how did Murong Yun know that the real owner of this jewelry store is his father-in-law? This Murong Yun is also too powerful, and he is a difficult person to deal with." β
Mu Jinbao said: "What the father-in-law said must be right, if it weren't for Murong Yun, he wouldn't have known that this jewelry store was opened by his father-in-law, and only a powerful person like Murong Yun would know our secret." β
Shen Deyi stared at the "little bag", he thought: "The 'little bag' is straight, tell the truth, and what he said is what our family is most worried about now, how did Murong Yun know the secret of this jewelry store? And also know that there is a night pearl in this store? Do you know that there is a traitor in the prison?"
Shen Deyi felt that several of his subordinates should not be moles, and he thought: "Among the few people who know the secrets of the jewelry store, the 'little bag' is absolutely loyal and will not tell it; Li Haoqiang knows the powerful relationship of this matter, and he must not leak it; Wang Yongquan of the jewelry store knows the punishment methods of our family to deal with the traitor, he does not dare to say it when he is killed, it is impossible for my subordinates to leak it, but how does Murong Yun know? This is so strange!"
"This matter is very strange, we must investigate it carefully, such a secret matter has been leaked, our family must personally send someone to investigate. Shen Deyi said thoughtfully.
"Father-in-law, the loss of the gambling house on Sanshan Street will be smaller, right? Is it also Murong Yun who attacked there?" asked Mu Jinbao.
"The gambling house was attacked, the loss of silver is not much, but the secret of our family has been leaked, such a loss is strict, the gambling house on Sanshan Street also had an accident on the same night, in the second half of the night, after the hour, the business in the gambling house is very good, very lively, there is a young man in white clothes into the gambling house, his chic appearance makes the people in the gambling house think that he is the son of the big official's family, as soon as he enters the gambling house, the guy in the gambling house called the shopkeeper Zhang Ruibao, Zhang Ruibao also felt that this son must be a very rich lord, he wanted to lead the son to the VIP room, but the son did not do itZhang Ruibao had to let him sit down at a gambling table in the hall, the boy took out the silver, began to gamble, unexpectedly, he was very lucky, and won a few hands in a row, at this time, sitting next to him a Xiucai happened to gamble all the silver in his hand, Xiucai wanted to borrow the silver to continue gambling, but the guy in the gambling house did not allow it, the boy saw it, took out five taels of silver that he had just won and gave it to Xiucai, Xiucai bowed and thanked, the boy smiled slightly, and said: ' Bet quickly, win a few more, win some silver and go home, concentrate on studying, you are a talent like you, there is no way out to continue to gamble, and participating in the imperial examination is the way out for Xiucai!' Xiucai nodded again and again. Shen Deyi said carefully.
Mu Jinbao interjected and asked: "That son didn't make trouble in the gambling house, and helped Xiucai, shouldn't this be Murong Yun?" (to be continued......)
