Start with detective Li Yuanfang

Chapter 123 Really?I do not believe!
The deeper you go, the more Ming Chongyan concentrates on it.

It's already the fifth watch, and if it's Asahi, all the ministers have to leave their homes and prepare to enter the palace early.

The sky was no longer pitch black, but began to be dim, and sneaking in at this time was undoubtedly risky.

In fact, even if the night is dark and the wind is high, the defense of the headquarters of the Dou Chamber of Commerce is extremely strict.

It's not a day or two since the internal guards of Plum Blossoms have been eyeing the Dou's Chamber of Commerce. They naturally know that hundreds of people are patrolling the interior of the Chamber of Commerce every day.

It is no exaggeration to say that in the entire city of Chang'an, except for the Daming Palace where the saint resides, the rest of the noble mansions do not necessarily have the guards here.

Teams of guards without armor but equipped with weapons came and went, making it extremely difficult to sneak in, and it was almost the same to fight all the way in.

There is indeed such a way to sneak in~
Ming Chongyan restrained his thoughts and jumped left and right like a rabbit in Taoist robes.

For a while, it flashed from the wall on this side to the other side, and then swept from the corner to the beam of the house, waiting for the patrol to pass by.

Li Yan followed behind, watching and watching, feeling a little unbearable.

Please, you're so humble!
Can't you go farther every time you sprint, do you have to jump one after another?
In desperation, he could only admire the white walls and red doors, thinking about how rich Dou was.

You must know that the most magnificent wall of Weiguo Duke's Mansion is the gate tower. Walking inside, there are inevitably some dilapidated corners.

The same is true of Wu Minzhi's Zhou Guogong Mansion. Some places are rammed with layers of loess without any paint.

Only this chamber of commerce has a uniform white exterior wall, and it is neatly painted inside. The buildings are spacious and tidy.

In addition to not daring to overstep, everything has been repaired to the best.

Seeing the big from the small, you can see how rich and powerful it is.

Li Yan was fortunate to have the inner guard of Plum Blossom to explore the way, otherwise, it would be really difficult for him to sneak in by himself in such a large place, and it would be really difficult to find the key area in a short time.

At this time, Ming Chongyan followed the intelligence route and sneaked into the core of the chamber of commerce, where the ledgers are stored.

There are five rooms in the house alone, and there are huge wooden frames lined up inside, and the ledgers are displayed in an orderly manner.

Ming Chongyan looked in from the window, but looked away.

There are too many to check.

But he's not ready to give up.

He also wanted to know if the poison pill that poisoned the Xinke scholars came from the Dou family?
Monitoring Dou's family is originally the duty of Plum Blossom's internal guards. If you discover the truth first, you will be too embarrassing in front of the saint.

The Criminal Department, Dali Temple, Wannian Chang'an County Government, and internal guards are not as capable as our plum blossom internal guards!
"My foreign job, it's time to move..."

Ming Chongyan had longing in his eyes.

He is already tired of being a writer in Prince Ji's Mansion, what's the point of studying with a nine-year-old child?
If he can hold real power like Li Yan, then it will be called prestige!
Ever since, Ming Chongyan jumped left and right again, heading for the warehouse further inside.

Li Yan followed.

When he arrived at the warehouse area, he found that it was not as big as he imagined.

Because Dou's major shops in Chang'an already have warehouses.

What is stored in the headquarters warehouse is only the most high-end goods.

He randomly picked a warehouse and looked inside. Apart from the guards standing guard, Li Yan also saw that the outermost ones were all exquisite toothbrushes.

The brush handles made of cow bones are placed side by side, faintly flowing with luster.

Don't underestimate it, the price of each toothbrush is more than [-] yuan, and a toothbrush is [-] yuan, the profit is terrible.

This is still the cheapest product. Looking inside, there are exquisite cups and tableware, silky Shu brocade and Yue silk, and magnificent carpets.

One zhang blanket, one thousand taels of silk, people who don't know the cold want to be warm, and seldom take people's clothes to make lichens.

There is no Bai Juyi's poem yet, but the rich and powerful have enjoyed everything.

The key point is that Li Yan discovered that the one made by the Dou family is very similar to the one used in the uterus.

He has never seen the furniture in the emperor's bedroom, but he has been to Shaoyang Court many times, and he can spot the similarity at a glance.

This is not arrogance, because many items that are not for imperial use can be sold by merchants.

No wonder the dignitaries in Beijing like to go to Dou's store to buy good things. Everything is close to the royal family. Can it be unpopular?
On the other side, Ming Chongyan's gaze was also scanning.

There are more guards here, his feet landed silently, his movements were strange, he came and went quickly, and finally touched the shelf in the deepest part of the warehouse.

Without making a sound, a brocade box was taken away.

After Ming Chongyan succeeded, he left the warehouse, went to a remote corner, and opened the box.

He pinched the pill with two fingers to take it out, first looked at the luster, then smelled it lightly, and finally even stuck out his tongue to lick it.

After repeated confirmation, an extremely strange expression appeared on his face, with memories and fear at the same time, and he murmured: "Yun Dan...it's really Yun Dan...after the Jiangnan massacre...you can still see him again This thing..."

"What did the priest say?"

After all, Ming Chongyan's martial arts were good. Although Li Yan followed him from afar, he didn't come close.

It can only be seen from a distance that he seems to be talking to himself, and it is not clear what he said.

It doesn't matter, it won't take long, let you say it obediently!
And judging from this person's reaction, the elixir that Ming Chongyan stole from the depths of the warehouse is very likely to be the cloud elixir sold by his student Zhang Yang.

Jia Sibo was right, there was a problem with the Dou Chamber of Commerce.

Sure enough, Ming Chongyan was stunned for a moment, then immediately put the elixir back into the box, with a flash of figure, he went to the warehouse again.

He wants to put the pill back.

Now that the headquarters of Dou's Chamber of Commerce has been confirmed, there is really such a pill, so we can't startle the snake.

It is necessary to bring a large group of people to see this, to catch thieves and seize stolen goods, in order to obtain evidence.

Otherwise, just by sneaking in, even if you steal a box of pills, the other party can deny it and destroy the pills secretly.

Li Yan also agrees with this behavior.

As expected of a professional spy, the work is really reliable.

Seeing that Ming Chongyan's infiltration was fruitful, Li Yan's figure flickered and disappeared.

Ming Chongyan put the box back into the deep part of the warehouse, and the sky became brighter. With a more cautious attitude, he slowly patrolled through layers, and finally came to the outer wall.

As soon as he thought of Li Yan waiting outside relaxedly, and jumping up and down inside, moving left and right, Ming Chongyan felt ashamed and annoyed, and his eyes rolled quickly.

How can the inner guard and Dou's conflict be allowed to get credit for the inner guard of Plum Blossoms, so that all the benefits can be taken advantage of?

The moment he jumped out of the wall, he had an idea, and a sinister arc appeared at the corner of his mouth.

Then the next moment, his eyes froze.

Because the walls are empty.

Li Yan, who was supposed to be standing here, disappeared.

Ming Chongyan was startled at first, then glanced around, and his face quickly returned to calm.

He guessed that someone might be passing by, and that Li Jiyi panicked and hid.

After all, to do this kind of thing, the other party is obviously a novice, and he dare not even climb over the wall.

People who cherish their feathers so much naturally don't want to be seen by others.

However, as the sky grew brighter, more and more servants began to get busy, and the shouts gradually sounded.

Ming Chongyan waited, but still saw no one, so he could only hide aside.

He doesn't want to be seen either!

After waiting for a quarter of an hour like this, just as Ming Chongyan was about to go back to Xuandu to watch, Li Yan flashed out from the corner with a bulging bag behind him, and beckoned towards him. Waving: "Prince Daoist! Priest Daoist!"

Ming Chongyan flew over, looked at the figure protruding from the sack, and couldn't help laughing: "Shanxin, you are..."

Hey, you learn bad things so fast!
Li Yan said excitedly: "Master Dao, I just found a secret spy in the Dou's Chamber of Commerce!"

hey...huh? ?
Ming Chongyan's heart skipped a beat, and then he saw Li Yan untie the bag, and brought out the sealed Plum Blossom Lady Wei Rong.

Li Yan explained: "This woman has ulterior motives. A few months ago, she was a fake mother who knew her wife. She made a good friend of mine go to jail. Today, I saw her in the Dou's Chamber of Commerce. There must be something hidden behind this person. There is a huge secret!"

Ming Chongyan: "..."

Rong Niang: "..."

In comparison, Rong Niang was even more broken.

At that time, as a false mother, she received a group of three guests in Shu San Lady's Courtyard.

Li Yan, Qiu Shenji and An Shengan.

More than three months ago, Qiu Shenji caught her once, and escaped as the inner guard of Plum Blossom.

More than three months later, Li Yan knocked her unconscious again, and took her away from the Dou's Chamber of Commerce in broad daylight.

Then it's the turn to calm the nerves, right?

Are you doing three captures and three moves?

I am a dignified inner guard of plum blossoms!
But Li Yan obviously didn't have the intention of respecting her identity, and he wanted to stuff it into the bag again, and excitedly said to Ming Chongyan: "Master Taoist, the sage is very concerned about this case, I have made a major discovery, and I have to enter the palace as soon as possible." , this is my farewell!"

Seeing that Li Yan was really about to enter the palace, and Rong Niang was unable to make a sound, Ming Chongyan had no choice but to stretch out his hand again: "Believers, please stay!"

Li Yan paused and looked at him strangely: "What's the matter, Daoist?"

Ming Chongyan said coldly: "This woman's status is different, Li Jiyi doesn't need to bring her into the palace, she was originally serving the saint."

Li Yan was stunned for a moment, and his eyes became sharp in an instant: "Master Ming, do you know what you are talking about? She is a spy, and you actually said that she serves a saint. May I ask how you know?"

Ming Chongyan's breathing was slightly stagnant, and he felt the majesty of a fifth-rank official. He was annoyed and stopped pretending: "She is serving a saint, and the poor are the same. To be honest, we are plum blossom internal guards. Wei Tong belongs to the same line, but his identity is concealed, and he is all ordered by the Holy Order, does Li Jiyi understand now?!"

As he spoke, his arrogance grew.

We all have dual identities. No matter how humble we are on the surface, we are confidantes of saints in secret. No matter how close or distant we are, you can't compare!
Half of Rong Niang's body was put into the bag, and she thought she had passed the test. She only hoped that she would not be caught again...

But soon, she found that it was not so easy this time.

Because Li Yan looked at the two of them carefully, shook his head, and said in a very unbeatable tone:

"Really? I don't believe it!"
