Start with detective Li Yuanfang

Chapter 666

"Remind me, the waterways are thoroughly investigated, and the houses are controlled. Should we rush in now?"

"Don't worry, play with them!"

Gao Qiu sat on the tall horse, looking at the house in the distance.

If the official rank does not reach a certain level, it is not qualified to be called a mansion, it can only be called a family house, but in Bianjing, where every inch of land is expensive, sometimes the mansions of purple-robed officials are really not comparable to the homes of such wealthy merchants .

At least the stone lions at the entrance of Ye’s house are carved to be tall and mighty. Except for the number of jiū hairs, which are restricted by etiquette and cannot be surpassed, anyone who looks at this mansion can’t help feeling yearning and envy heart of.

Of course, it could also be jealousy.

Gao Lian was particularly jealous, two clusters of raging flames were burning in his eyes, so that he could not feel the chill of the night at all during these nine days.

But before coming, Li Yan emphasized that it was time to walk half a hundred steps and half to ninety.

When there are too many people, it is easy to be chaotic, and once it is chaotic, it is easy to make mistakes. It is better to wait for the two house raiding partners to wipe out Mingzun's thieves, and lead the elite to come here, and then break down the house in one fell swoop.

However, before they took the initiative to call for the door, the door opened, and several figures came out, led by a steward in exquisite robes, who was also Ye Jichang's confidant.

Gao Lian ordered: "This house is a cult thief, let this person stand far away, the crossbowman is ready, if there is any mistake, shoot him!"

The steward saw the officers and soldiers obstructing him, so he could only bow and salute from a distance, and said loudly: "See you, Gao Ti, I will come to report, Ye Huishou, please raise me."

Gao Qiu said coldly: "Do you think the official is making such a big move and bringing so many people here as a guest?"

The steward bent down: "I'm afraid there may be some misunderstandings. Ye Huishou has always admired the prestige of the imperial city, and hoped that Gao would step up and explain it himself to show his sincerity."

Gao Qiu likes to see people pleading tremblingly in front of him, and waved his hands: "Okay, if Ye Jichang came out in person, it would be considered a bit of sincerity, now let you come forward as a manager, and talk about sincerity, isn't it ridiculous?" ? This officer has given me a chance before, and you not only don’t cherish it, but also secretly helped Ye Yanzhi escape from prison.

The steward said: "Gao Ti is more observant, the leader of the guild also knows that he is incapable of teaching his son, and the discipline is not strict. He is willing to let the young master turn himself in and plead guilty. Whether it is assassination, exile, or public questioning, he has no complaints. At the same time, he is willing to take out a share of the guild. As an apology..."

"Presumptuous! How dare you bribe me in public?"

Gao Qiu interrupted it halfway through hearing it, as if there was a plaque hanging high in a mirror, hanging behind his head, and shouted: "Take it down for me!"

The steward and his entourage were directly dragged down. Gao Li and Ye Jichang, who was in the tall building in the courtyard, looked at each other across the air. He didn't know if he saw it clearly, but his face was still upright.

Faced with such Qingtian behavior, Ye Jichang's cheek muscles twitched, and when he heard footsteps, he said without turning his head: "Is it the Shangqiu Guild?"

Elder Qian reported: "The head of the guild is brilliant, it is indeed the Shangqiu guild."

Ye Jichang's eyes were full of fierceness: "It really is them! This Gao Qi besieged and did not attack, it is not a simple house raid, I am afraid that he is going to swallow my Chamber of Commerce completely, but he certainly does not have this ability, he can only fight with others The five major chambers of commerce jointly..."

"Recently, Zhang Dun was resigned, and the Shangqiu Guild needs political resources the most, so even the notorious Imperial City Secretary and lucky minister Gao Qiu will not let go..."

"Hmph, when this turmoil subsides, I will definitely let them die without a place to bury their lives!"

Qian Laodao: "But now that Gao Qiu has the support of the Shangqiu Guild, he will not agree to reconciliation, but hopes to confiscate his family and swallow everything!"

Ye Ji said: "He can swallow everything! Does he know where our treasury is? Can he run every printing workshop? Can he manage the craftsmen cultivated by our chamber of commerce? Let him copy If you don’t have much value to copy, naturally you have to cooperate with me!”

Qian Lao was still worried: "But except for the money bank, the Shangqiu Chamber of Commerce can take over!"

Ye Jichang sneered and said, "Then what's the difference since I transferred the guild to the Shangqiu Chamber of Commerce? As long as there is no cash, all subsequent benefits may be embezzled!"

"None of the six major chambers of commerce is clean, while the other five chambers of commerce, Gao Lian can't catch them. Now that the thick general's guild has evidence of crimes, it can be handled. If he kills us, he will have nothing to do with us. It is stupid for those people to cooperate!"

"As long as Gao Lian is a greedy and smart person, he will understand that it is the choice to maximize the benefits to beat us until we are left with one breath, and then stay. Others are taking advantage of it for nothing!"

Elder Qian looked at this master who seemed to always be able to make calm judgments, showing both respect and fear: "Ah Lang is wise!"

Ye Jichang asked, "What happened to Ni Zi?"

Elder Qian whispered, "I'm being held in the backyard."

Ye Jichang's tone was full of disappointment: "This rebellious son lures wolves into the house, but he doesn't know that he can still survive if he is suspended in suspended animation, and that he has a chance to return after being exiled, all because of our parents behind him. It's all over! Without a family, what kind of young master is he? We didn't learn that we are half-smart, only know that we are resentful, what a fool!"

"Am I a fool? If you practice that evil secret technique and make yourself neither male nor female, can you be so detached?"

In the backyard room, the young master with swollen cheeks looked at his mother and roared hysterically.

Mrs. Ye Jichang's wife, Mrs. Pan, showed a faint apology on her face: "I know you have always hated us very much. If you had other choices, I would not let you practice the Taiyuan secret method, but that is the order of King Ming. You are the only one in the family who has that talent, and as my child, you should shoulder this burden! With the blessing of King Ming, you have also practiced the secret technique and inherited the position of bishop..."

The Shaodong family was furious: "Bullshit King Ming! I practiced everything myself, not from King Ming... smack!"

Pan's eyes immediately became icy cold, and a slap slapped his son's face to the side: "Presumptuous! Those who disrespect King Ming will suffer three disasters and nine punishments...Take care of him!"

The maidservants on the left and right immediately took orders, and their eyes were also absolutely devoted to King Ming, so that they looked at this young man with disgust.

The sound of Pan's footsteps faded away, and the Shaodong family lowered their heads, as if they were completely unresponsive from the beating, until the sound of stones breaking through the air came.

"Swoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh—"

The guard guard fell down in response, and Xu Ning, who had just bandaged the wound, also rolled in and knocked the maid unconscious.

The Young Master suddenly raised his head, showing a smug smile: "Two good brothers, I knew you would come!"

Zhang Qing walked over: "The gesture you gave us when we parted before was the secret signal agreed upon when you escaped from prison. You already knew that you would be arrested?"

The Young Master nodded and sneered: "No one knows a son better than his parents, and he knows his parents better than a son... Let's go!"

Zhang Qing and Xu Ning couldn't keep up with the rhythm of the family for a while, but Li Yan let them wait for the opportunity and naturally followed.

Under the leadership of Shaodong's family, the three of them went directly to the garden next to them without leaving the backyard, opened the secret passage mechanism, and went straight into the underground passage.

Zhang Qing thought he was going to run away, so he was very puzzled and said: "Young Master, since you are going to run away, what did you come back for before?"

Young Master said: "It's not about running away, it's about going to the vault!"

Xu Ning was startled: "The treasury? Why is this a small secret passage without guards?"

The Shaodong family explained: "My parents are guilty of thieves, and the way of hiding money is different from other chambers of commerce. I just heard those servants talking about it. They have been surrounded by officers and soldiers, but even if they broke down the house, they couldn't find it except for those at home. What kind of property, the huge wealth accumulated by the two of them is actually hidden in the treasury."

As he said that, there was already a fluctuation of the formation in front of him. Zhang Qing and Xu Ning's spirits were very low, and they didn't feel anything. However, the Shaodong's family cheered up, walked a few steps, and came to an inconspicuous iron gate: "This is the treasury. entrance."

Zhang Qing and Xu Ning looked at the size of the iron gate, and then looked at the imprint on the gate, a little disappointed: "How big is the treasury with such a small gate?"

The Shaodong family laughed and said: "Don't look at the small gate, there is a cave behind it, most of the treasury is in the Wuyou Cave, it was opened with Wuwozi, the leader of the Wuyou Cave, but the thief leader couldn't open it."

"Look at this formation pattern, I need my parents' palm prints to be pressed on it at the same time. If anyone is missing, the formation pattern will be disordered. After several times, the emergency formation method inside will be activated."

Zhang Qing asked curiously, "What will happen then?"

Shaodong's family said: "The Yan Mie Formation will melt copper coins and property, and then pour them into the Wuyou Cave opened below. They would rather take advantage of the thieves than let the enemies who raided the house find the wealth."

"However, when they designed the formation, they didn't expect that the Worriless Cave would be destroyed, so once the formation is activated now, the treasury will be completely destroyed and cannot be retrieved!"

Zhang Qing was stunned, while Xu Ning asked casually, "How much money is hidden in the treasury?"

The Young Master thought for a while: "It's not all money. If it's all money, it's probably around six million coins."

"Oh, six million coins...how much do you say?"

Zhang Qing and Xu Ning were dumbfounded in place.

Ignoring the two stunned people, Shaodong's family walked over, stretched out his palms, and touched the swollen cheeks on the left and right.

On it was just now his parents, each of them smoked a big pussy bag, and the young master showed a fierce look and made a tearing motion.

In the sound of endless pain, he actually tore off two shallow pieces of flesh from his face. There was no blood on his face, but he looked pale and bloodless.

But Ye Jichang and Pan's palm lines did emerge from the flesh and pressed towards the mark.

"Am I stupid? Can't I live without you?"

"Wrong! I have already thought about this day and prepared for it!"

"Father! Mother! I want you to regret it! Hahahaha!"

Amid wild laughter, the iron door slowly opened, and a ray of light enveloped the three of them.
