The First Young Master of the Tang Dynasty

Chapter 685 Suspicious Caravan

Xuan Shijing stood up, bowed his hands to Xiao Yu solemnly, and made Xuan Shijing admire him for his attitude towards Mrs. Xiao.

"Master Xiao, this junior has an unfeeling request, and I hope Master Xiao can agree." Xuan Shijing said.

Xiao Yu looked at Xuan Shijing, and smiled: "Xuanhou doesn't have to be so polite, just say it."

"Although the younger generation has taken over this case, it is still not good for the younger generation to investigate too frequently on the official side. Therefore, I hope that if it is convenient for Mr. Xiao, you can pay attention to those officials in the official department who take part in the Chunwei invigilation exam on weekdays. If Master Xiao can agree, it will be a great help to the junior." Xuan Shijing said with cupped hands.

Xiao Yu stroked his beard and nodded: "Xuanhou don't worry, since this case involves the Ministry of Officials, the old man just pay attention, it's not a big deal."

Xiao Yu's words are considered to be in response to Xuan Shijing's request. Although Xiao Yu is straight-tempered and has many sinners in the court, he still has experience and vision as an official, so as long as the officials show something Flaws, in front of Xiao Yu, I'm afraid there is nothing to hide.

The conversation with Xiao Yu at Xiao Yu's mansion was very pleasant. After the conversation was over, it showed that Xuan Shijing had another powerful ally in this case, Xiao Yu.

But Xiao Yu's joining is also a double-edged sword for Xuan Shijing, Xuan Shijing must keep Li Ke's secrets tighter, and don't let Xiao Yu find out anything, otherwise the world will be in chaos.

After leaving Xiao Yu's mansion, a servant had already led Xuan Shijing and Qin Bingyue's horses out. After they got on the horses, they went to Xuanwu Tower.

If the Shenhou Mansion is the main force in investigating cases, but when receiving news, Xuan Shijing still likes to be in the Xuanwu Tower. Without him, in the Xuanwu Tower, not only can the Shenhou Mansion be controlled remotely, but also the money pile can be given to herself occasionally. Some unexpected news, such as the news that Qin Bingyue got from Shenhou Mansion early in the morning, was that Qiandui was sent to Shenhou Mansion.

The chamber of commerce under Qiandui found a suspicious caravan. They said it was a caravan. It would be more appropriate to describe it as a group of people dressed as a caravan.

Because the chamber of commerce under Qiandui's hands is one of the best in Chang'an except Marshal Zhao's house. The main base of the chamber of commerce in Marshal Zhao's family is Chang'an, and it has a foundation in Chang'an for decades. Although the Xuanwu Tower is powerful now, But in terms of background, it is not as good as the Zhao family, and Qiandui sent the news to the Shenhou Mansion, meaning that he wanted to unite the Zhao family through Marshal Zhao and take a large part of the business in Chang'an City. Caravans, large and small, often pay extra attention, and only then did they discover this suspicious point, and wrote down the news and sent it directly to Marshal Zhao.

For Xuan Shijing, this was also an unexpected surprise. He was so lucky to meet the forces of the old ministers of the former court, and dared to come to Chang'an so blatantly. I don't know if Li Ke knew about it.

Regardless of whether Li Ke knew it or not, Xuan Shijing had to let Jinyiwei secretly watch these people closely. Xuan Shijing was determined to make Jinyiwei into a national security department.

Ideals must be there. As for whether they are realized or not, it depends on the process. Three points are destined, seven points depend on hard work, and the remaining ninety points depend on the court.

When they arrived at the Xuanwu Building, Xuan Shijing sat on the chair again, but this time, he opened the window behind him, facing the scenery outside the window, he seemed to relax and enjoy the beautiful scenery.

"Now that Lord Hou has the news, don't you plan to meet His Highness King Wu?" Qin Bingyue asked.

She didn't understand what Xuan Shijing was waiting for.

"No, no, no." Xuan Shijing smiled and waved his hands: "It's not the time yet, Jinyi guards and nets have been set up in various places, we have already cast them out, and when the nets are collected, it's not far away, when the nets are collected It is time to meet the King of Wu again."

Now that the case is basically clear, Jin Yiwei is no longer like a headless chicken at the beginning, but is performing its duties in a targeted manner, collecting information, and finally gathering it in the Shenhou Mansion. In the hands of Xuan Shijing, and then deployed by Xuan Shijing or Fang Yiai, the entire Shenhou Mansion is on the right track, running like a machine. So far, the machine of Shenhou Mansion, It still runs smoothly.

What Xuan Shijing didn't know was that although those people in the previous dynasty had letters to Li Ke or Concubine Yang, the letters would be burned after they were read, so Xuan Shijing also It is doomed that no substantial evidence can be obtained from them.

"Bingyue, what news can the Jin Yiwei who is monitoring those people send back?" Xuan Shijing asked.

Qin Bingyue shook her head and responded: "Not yet, but I heard from Jin Yiwei that there are many experts among those people, so I was wondering if they could be connected with Wu Wangfu through these experts going out at night. What, as for how they contact the palace, that remains to be seen."

"That's it." Xuan Shijing sighed and said, "Whether they contacted the Wu Palace or contacted Concubine Yang in the palace, we can't get any real evidence now, so it's difficult. Is it possible that we have to wait for them to take the initiative? They have time to spend, but we don't have that time to wait. If we don't explain this case in a few days, there will be some voices from the court, which will be very unfavorable to us. .”

"If that's the case, Lord Hou might as well stimulate them so that they have to contact each other." Qin Bingyue suggested.

stimulate them?After listening to Qin Bingyue's words, Xuan Shijing fell into deep thought. It's okay, but there are also experts among them. Even if they send letters between them, can Jin Yiwei keep up with the whereabouts of those experts?Also, if contacting the palace, how should Jin Yiwei intercept the news?

"If you stimulate them to force them to contact each other, you might startle the snake. Besides, we are not [-]% sure that we can intercept the secret letters between them." Xuan Shijing said.

"Master Hou is worried about the experts among those people?" Qin Bingyue asked.

Xuan Shijing nodded: "Although Jin Yiwei is good at kung fu, there is still a gap compared with the masters who play around, so the possibility of making mistakes is still very high, let alone others, among Jin Yiwei, How many people can compare with Jiang Muqing, could Jiang Muqing stare at those people day and night?" Xuan Shijing smiled after finishing speaking.

"It's not like day and night. As long as Lord Hou can force them to communicate with each other, I can intercept their communication." Qin Bingyue said.
