The First Young Master of the Tang Dynasty

Chapter 2088

Although Wang Yu went to Zhuangzi, the people staring at him still did not let him go, and now, there is one more person staring at Wang Yu.

After Lai Junchen returned from Langya, he became famous in Chang'an City, but what he got was not a good reputation, but this still did not hinder his promotion, because Li Chengqian not only did not have the cruel methods in the case of the Langya Wang family, As many ministers in the court thought, they abandoned Lai Junchen, and instead handed over the Zheng family's case to Lai Junchen, who was also promoted.

When Lai Junchen was promoted, those who had something to hide in their hearts, those who were afraid, began to curry favor with Lai Junchen. In just a few days, Lai Junchen directly changed to a big house in Chang'an City.

Houses in Chang'an City are not cheap nowadays.

Lai Junchen can be regarded as a bit proud now, he is being appreciated by the emperor, and now there are so many people in Chang'an City to curry favor with him, he enjoys this kind of life very much, this is something he has never had before, before he was just a An inconspicuous little man, an official with a big nose, who can think highly of him?
However, Lai Junchen also has something on his mind, because he knows about Baiqisi.

In the past, he had only heard the word Baiqisi. As a small official, he never knew that Baiqisi was so powerful that so many ministers in the court were afraid. , you can meet people from Baiqisi, and Baiqisi is also pervasive, always watching the officials of Chang'an City.

It's not good for him.

When Lai Junchen thought about it at home, he also figured out that something was wrong.

Do the people in Baiqisi know what he did in Langya?If the people from the Baiqi Division knew about it, they would definitely report it to His Majesty. Then the booklet that I submitted to His Majesty
Lai Junchen sat in his new study, groping for his beard, frowning tightly.

If His Majesty finds out and still appoints me, does it mean that His Majesty agrees with his actions, and now I am not only fine, but also promoted and reused
His Majesty handed over the case of the Zheng family to him, which is the best proof.

However, is he also being watched by the people of Baiqisi now?

Lai Junchen really thought about this point correctly, and Han Cheng really sent people to keep an eye on Lai Junchen, whether it was his dealings with officials in Chang'an City, or accepting bribes to buy a big house, Baiqi Division all Seeing it in his eyes, he also reported it to Li Chengqian.

Lai Junchen thought about it, and wanted to guard against Baiqisi, there was only one breakthrough, and that was Wang Yu who had already withdrawn from Baiqisi.

Wang Yu was the former commander of the Baiqi Division, and he knew the affairs of the Baiqi Division best.

It seems that we have to find some chance to meet this Wang Yulai, Junchen thought so in his heart.

But Wang Yuren was still in the academy at Zhuangzi in Dongshan County, if he went rashly, he would definitely be suspicious.

Suddenly, Lai Junchen slapped his palm, and a plan came to his mind.

Isn't he taking over the Zheng family's affairs now?You can use this excuse to go to Wang Yu, or to inquire, or to insinuate, and you will always get some useful information.

Lai Junchen was rejoicing. Fortunately, he himself showed kindness for a while and allowed the Zheng family to celebrate the Mid-Autumn Festival. If the Zheng family had been dealt with before the Mid-Autumn Festival, what excuse would he use to find Wang Yu now?

Now the mansion of the Zheng family in Chang'an City has been strictly watched. People in the mansion are only allowed to enter and not to go out, and there are hidden stakes around to watch. knew.

People in Zhuangzi don't know what Lai Junchen is thinking about, but now Li Chengqian is very concerned about Lai Junchen.

"Subordinate Han Cheng, I have seen Your Majesty." The Xuanzheng Hall was brightly lit at night. Although it was time to go to bed, Li Chengqian still did not go to rest. He had to listen to Han Cheng's report before he could sleep in peace.

"Exemption." Li Chengqian said, "What news?"

"Returning to Your Majesty, it's about Lai Junchen. Before the Mid-Autumn Festival, Lai Junchen met Qi Guogong in Chang'an City by chance, chatted with Qi Guogong on the street, and told Qi Guogong that he was going to try the Zheng family's money bank case. , In addition, taking advantage of the Mid-Autumn Festival, many officials in Chang'an City visited Lai Junchen, and gave Lai Junchen a lot of things, and Lai Junchen accepted them all. Moreover, now Lai Junchen has changed houses, and in Chang'an City A new house was built in the middle of the house, which is much larger than the place where he lived before, and the house also raised many servants."

Li Chengqian nodded upon hearing the words: "Is there anything else?"

"In addition, according to my subordinates' estimates, Lai Junchen should also be able to guess that he is being watched by his subordinates and others." Han Cheng said.

"It's not surprising." Li Chengqian said: "Wang Yu's identity was leaked. He was the face of Baiqisi in the past, and Lai Junchen knew it. I asked you Baiqisi to supervise the officials. If he can't guess, That is mediocrity, why, does this hinder your work?"

"Returning to Your Majesty, no, the Baiqisi people have arranged for Lai Junchen to work in his new house when he moved in." Han Cheng said.

"Well done, then continue to stare at him." Li Chengqian said: "I really don't feel at ease with such a person."

Don't worry, but it must be used.

"Yes." Han Cheng clapped his hands in response.

Han Cheng reported the news to Li Chengqian in Xuanzheng Hall, while Gao Yuan reported the news to Xuan Shijing in Xuan Shijing's study in the Xuan family mansion on Zhuangzi.

Xuan Shijing asked Gao Yuan to investigate Dou's house, and within two or three days, Gao Yuan found out everything he could find.

"My lord, I feel that the reason why Dou Yan is so keen on the marriage of the two families may be related to the Dou family's meddling in the bank before." Gao Yuan said.

"Has the Dou family ever intervened in the bank?" Xuan Shijing squinted his eyes and asked, "It seems that Baiqisi has not found out about this matter."

"Because the people from Baiqisi can't produce any evidence." Gao Yuan said: "If there is no evidence, Baiqisi will not speak out rashly. What my subordinates have found is the account books of the Dou family for the last whole year. There is a large amount of expenditure, and the destinations are all banks in Tongzhou. That is to say, the Dou family sent a large sum of money to the bank in Tongzhou. As for the bank in Tongzhou, because the distance is too far, the subordinates have not yet It was too late to find out how the money was used, and two years ago, or even three years ago or four years ago, the Dou family also had a large amount of money, which was received from the Tongzhou Bank."

Two years ago, a large amount of money was received from the Tongzhou Bank, and a large amount of money was sent to the Tongzhou Bank in the spring of this year.

Xuan Shijing is someone who has handled the Qianzhuang case from the beginning to the end, how can he not see the way in it?
