The First Young Master of the Tang Dynasty

Chapter 2014 Closing
"My lord, but I feel that the businessmen will not come to Suzhou for too long." Zheng An said: "When they came to find the officials, there was a lot of movement, and in Suzhou City After waiting for several days, it is estimated that after meeting you in this restaurant today, the father-in-law, this matter will be even more difficult to cover up."

"That's true." Xuan Shijing smiled and responded: "Although this Suzhou city is under your rule, you can't cover every aspect of the people coming and going every day. The people in the city who are staring at me now are still I don't know how many there are."

A look of embarrassment flashed across Zheng An's face.

Xuan Shijing's words also included him. When Xuan Shijing first came to Suzhou City, among the people who stared at Xuan Shijing every day, Zheng An also sent him there.

Xuan Shijing also took advantage of this opportunity to bury Zheng An. Although she knew that Zheng An did not have any malicious intentions at that time, but being stared at for no reason, there will always be a hurdle in her heart.

After these words came out, the hurdle in my heart disappeared.

"I went back first, guessing, after a few days, those businessmen will write all the things they encountered into complaints." Xuan Shijing said: "I still want to thank you for this banquet."

Before coming here, Xuan Shijing was still skeptical, but now, Xuan Shijing felt that this trip was worth it.

"My lord, you are being polite. This is what a subordinate official should do." Zheng An was also very happy in his heart. He originally thought that Xuan Shijing would be angry by arranging this banquet and letting Xuan Shijing meet with those people in such a way, but So far, it looks like it works fine.

As for the matter of sending people to watch Xuan Shijing earlier, it should be able to offset it, right?
Zheng An knew that there were no mediocre people around Xuan Shijing, judging from Xuan Shijing's attitude towards him in the days that followed, it was obvious that he already knew about sending people to follow him, but he never said it clearly.

And part of what he said just now was to remind himself, and it was aimed at himself.

However, since the words have been spoken, the matter is over.

"Gao Jun, let's go back first." Xuan Shijing said.

"Yes." Gao Jun responded, followed Xuan Shijing and left the restaurant.

After returning home, Gao Jun closed the door, and then Gao Jun spoke.

"Grandpa, do you want our people to keep an eye on those businessmen?" Gao Jun asked.

"Yes." Xuan Shijing said: "Act in secret, don't let people see the clues, let's keep the people in the open, let the Baiqisi go."

"Yes." Gao Jun replied: "In the evening, my subordinates will make arrangements."

Xuan Shijing turned around and entered his study.

Now they usually do things at night. Anyway, here in Suzhou City, there is not much difference in the degree of excitement between night and day, but doing things at night is indeed more secretive. At least in this month, what they do , other people don’t know about it, and with Baiqisi’s secrecy, they have collected a lot of things in this month. Except for Xuan Shijing, no one else knows about these things, even Gao Jun , are also half-knowledgeable, except for Xuan Shijing, no one else knows what the Baiqisi people he sent out to investigate.

In the evening, the Baiqisi people returned to Xuan Shijing's house as usual, and Gao Jun also told the Baiqisi people about Xuan Shijing's meaning, and by the way, gave Baiqisi a list of people.

Gao Jun asked Zheng An for this list in the afternoon. Zheng An knew the origins and names of those people, otherwise, Zheng An would not have arranged for these people to meet Xuan Shijing.

"The Lord wants you to quietly send people to keep an eye on the people on this list, not only to keep an eye on them, but also to protect their safety." Gao Jun said: "These people are all in Suzhou City now."

"Yes." The Baiqisi man cupped his hands in response.

After explaining the matter, Gao Jun also came to the study.

"Is it all arranged?" Xuan Shijing asked.

"Yes, it's already been arranged." Gao Jun replied: "Grandpa, you asked those businessmen to write complaints, are you going to accept their affairs personally?"

Xuan Shijing smiled and shook his head when he heard the words: "No, I don't want to accept their business. I will use their complaints for other purposes. Besides, didn't you listen to what Zheng An said? These businessmen , There are more than 30 people from various state capitals of Datang, the most are from Yangzhou, there are five people, even if there are five people from each place on average, that is six state capitals, six different places, this We are going to be busy until the year of the monkey? Therefore, we first collected the complaints, and then sorted out these complaints together with the information collected by Baiqisi, and handed them all over to the imperial court. This is all evidence.

After having the evidence, it is enough to directly convict according to the laws of the Tang Dynasty. "

Hearing the words, Gao Jun nodded half-understanding.

In this case, is it possible that the father-in-law does not plan to go to the place mentioned by those businessmen, and the imperial court will send imperial envoys to go there for the follow-up matters?

"Also, the city of Suzhou should be very lively recently, whether it is Baiqisi or the people around us, we all need to cheer up." Xuan Shijing said.

"Yes." Gao Jun replied.

Now Gao Jun already has an outline of what his father-in-law wants to do, so he knows how to do it next.

Everything, just wait and see.

In Yangzhou City, five wealthy businessmen left Yangzhou City all of a sudden and came to Suzhou. The local government should be alerted. That's why Xuan Shijing was worried about their safety in Suzhou City. However, if something happened to them in Suzhou City, then Xuan Shijing and Zheng An would be in trouble.

Xuan Shijing already sent some of the collected materials and evidence back to Chang'an City half a month ago. After sorting out the rest tonight, people from Baiqisi can continue to send them to Chang'an tomorrow. In a few days, these Once the businessmen settled down in Suzhou Zhuheng, Xuan Shijing and Gao Jun could return to Chang'an, bringing the confessions and complaints of these businessmen back to Chang'an, and even said, bringing them back to Chang'an.

This is where the authentication evidence is.

The next two days will be the time for Xuan Shijing to do finishing work, and the people in Baiqisi will be even busier. Xuan Shijing has also been in the house, never leaving the gate.

Two days later, those businessmen arrived in the Yamen in Suzhou, more than 30 people were temporarily placed in the backyard of the Yamen by Zheng An, waiting for Xuan Shijing to come to see them.

With so many people, it is impossible for all of them to go to Xuan Shijing's house, but the petition still needs to be submitted.
