Tang Qi Tan

Chapter 129
After eating a simple but hearty breakfast, Jiang Tian walked up to the third floor of the pavilion.Then he jumped out with his hands on the railing, turned over and stood on the ridge line of the tiled roof, and did a set of military gymnastics and original Tai Chi. After stretching his muscles and bones and starting to sweat slightly, he returned to the bottom.

I saw it on the balcony downstairs.The great figurine Ming Fei, which had been rewashed, dressed and fed, was carried out by Ah Yun and placed on a soft bed, basking in the sun while listening to what Ah Yun was talking about; Jiang Tian couldn't help smiling.Then concentrate on the table case.

When Guo Chongtao came to bid farewell yesterday, he also brought a large number of documents and copywriting at once.It is mainly divided into several categories:

One was collected by Jiang Tian, ​​a collection of related news released by the General Secretary of the General Administration, and newspaper clippings copied from dozens of government offices across the country.Although it is an old story that has been publicly released for many years, if there is not enough energy in the system, it is still impossible to collect and organize it in such a complete manner.

One is the follow-up report of a series of incidents that occurred a few days ago; there are not only the corresponding investigation and arrest process, but also some phased results and opinions from officials.It is mainly concentrated between Jingzhao Mansion, Jinwu Street Envoy and Yuchayuan.

There is another category, as mentioned by Jiang Tian, ​​the copies of the drawings of some neighborhoods in Chang'an that have been rebuilt and repaired over the years; there are also attached ditches and drainage signs.All of them are neat lowercase letters that resemble print, and are teeny copies of characters written with charcoal pencils.

Therefore, Jiang Tian had almost finished reading it, so he had to take it and burn it, so as not to fall into the truth and handle it.From this point of view, Guo Chongtao's performance is quite interesting.Although he was temporarily released on tour, he still worked hard to fulfill his previous promise within his authority.

Of course, the first category is actually purely a smoke screen used by Jiang Tian to deceive people and confuse people, thinking that he hides his true purpose; Is there any clue to trigger the progress of the task.

The second category is convenient for him to grasp the development of the current situation and the investigation progress of many related cases.According to Guo Chongtao's statement, even if he left temporarily, because Jiang Tian was already linked to the procuratorate, he could still receive a brief follow-up briefing in a legitimate way.

Therefore, relying on these things, Jiang Tian can also draw a rough outline of the cause and effect.For example, on the night of the Laurel Garden, the Black Bat Lord who ran out from the Yunying Building where the girls gathered; after being verified, he seemed to be involved in the years-long abuses of many people in the Jingzhao Mansion.

For another example, the businessman Luo Xian who was exterminated in Wuyun Tower, based on the clues found by Jiang Tian, ​​caught several suspects and tortured them, and more inside stories were involved.As a result, Luo's property in Beijing was raided, several managers were arrested and many contraband were confiscated.

In addition, there was a bloody conflict in the Feiming Building, and one of the representatives of the fugitive vassals was suspended; his body was found in an abandoned house in the south of the city. It seemed that he was seriously injured and was abandoned by his accomplices.Therefore, the mansion and property of the feudal family involved in the case have been sealed up by the government, and the feudal lord was ordered to come to answer the inquiry.

On the contrary, Ning Cijian, who was assassinated in public in Jingning Tower and brought disaster to Chi Yu, submitted to the imperial court to request a re-determination and investigation of his household registration in Beijing, which caused a lot of public opinion in the imperial court during this period.However, there are too many powerful relationships involved, and there will be no results in a short time.

In the end, the identity of the Xibei product Bao Si was actually related to the remnants of the Sansefang who had been traced for a long time.In other words, the identity of Bao Siniang, a palace maid, was originally real, but she was secretly replaced by her twin brother who was similar in appearance and dressed as a woman for many years, and exchanged identities.

It is precisely because this important high-level executive of the Sansefang has been hiding in the palace area with key evidence and clues; and later transferred to the Jinlan Club where "Auntie" is located, so he has not been able to be accepted. Track down the finds and discoveries of all forces.

Therefore, according to his confession, more than a dozen subordinate officials of Jingzhao Mansion and a member of the army were secretly arrested soon, as well as several bad commanders and Marquis Wu of Wannian County.Then, based on the evidence obtained from this person, they gradually locked onto another group of people in the ghost city.

Because it was rumored that they carried most of the account books, they tried to use the power of the underground ghost market to wait for an opportunity to escape from Chang'an through secret channels.That's why there was a follow-up action plan called "Fighting the Grass to Startle the Snake"; however, it is clear that both sides still underestimated the energy of the ghost market that has been dormant for many years.

Not only the snakes, insects, rats and ants are driven out by the grass and the snakes, but also the bloodthirsty hungry wolves dormant in the dark, and the breeders hidden deeper behind the wolves.Therefore, at the very beginning, because of internal leaks, he was on the verge of failure; he even sent someone to silence him first.

Then what happened is obvious; under the influence of all parties caused by the incident, the ghost city was directly turned into a place of chaos; As backup, it is difficult to obtain useful things except for a place of ruins.

If Jiang Tian didn't follow the mission guidelines and intervene in time.After all, if there is not enough sufficient and strong evidence to point it out; no one would have thought that the Lord of the Yu Fan, who is also a minister, a national vassal/Sky Lord, and an imperial merchant, would have a different relationship with the owner of the ghost market who has been active underground for many years. major relationship.

And Mr. Yulang, who was ordered to lead the team to be in charge of silencing and ending, is not an ordinary person; in addition to being the most famous face in the women's street, he is actually the foreign house (illegitimate son) of the lord of the Xiao family. One of the most capable confidantes before and after running.

Not to mention his wife and all his children are inextricably linked to the cult's prostitutes; they even sacrificed their own flesh and blood to worship the so-called Wutong God Sect.That's right, the great sage Huanxitian in the underground palace is one of the incarnations of the so-called Wutong God.

And from this former ghost city owner/lord of the Xiao family who is currently at large, one after another, an internal code of Dali Temple and a scholar of the Eastern Pavilion (Hanlin Academy, Hongwen Hall, and Jixian Academy) have been involved. ;A head of the Jiaofang Division, a chief bookkeeper of the Taichang Temple...

In addition, this design was also used to catch a traitor hidden in Jinwu Lingwei Zhonglang's mansion in disguise; as Lingwei Zhonglang, Li Xiancheng was born as the Kongmu official of the inner court who was a relative of Li Xiancheng, and Xiao Bie, a side branch of Yufan Xiao's family. .

Therefore, in the coming days, there will be more officials, subordinates, tribesmen, and merchants who have close contacts or close relationships on weekdays, and will also be held accountable and liquidated to varying degrees.

By the way, there is another important member of the Xiao family who is at large or missing.It is a bold and unrestrained figure who once had a good reputation in the capital and a high profile.She is also a member of many Jinlan associations, the daughter of the Xiao family named Xiao Yuqing; it is said that she is also the elder sister of the live figure downstairs.

Therefore, both Xiantai and Jinwuwei ignored her existence in official articles; perhaps they did not have the intention of using this as a bait to attract the remaining members of the Xiao family.

It seems that things can be almost finished here.In other words, Guo Chongtao, the censor of the procuratorate, can only go so far with the level and authority he currently has.

However, since he transferred all the information in his hand before leaving office to Jiang Tian's side, he also pointed out the direction where he could ask for help.In fact, it means that he is not so willing to let go of this matter, but hopes to use this power to continue to pursue some hidden intentions.

Next, it is time to take stock of the harvest of this trip to the ghost market.Although he didn't touch those account books, letterheads, deeds, gold and silverware, antiques, calligraphy and paintings with obvious styles and marks; but after searching around Fanlou, he still gained a lot.

I saw Jiang Tian immediately stretched out his hand and grasped it out of thin air, and a two-and-a-half-foot-wide camphorwood bookcase flew over.After overturning and playing with the sundries inside out of thin air, as Jiang Tian moved his mind again, the book box was filled with clattering shiny things.

Then, under the guidance and control of Jiang Tian's mind, the things in the boxes were piled up, and they flew to the table one after another by category; they stacked themselves into several small piles.

Then, under the guidance and control of Jiang Tian's mind, the things in the boxes were piled up, and they flew to the table one after another by category; they stacked themselves into several small piles.

Among them, the smallest pile of gold is Dangshi, Dangwu, and gold treasures (coins) of two denominations, big and small; there are probably hundreds of them.The second is the silver treasures (money) of three types: large, medium and small, which occupy the largest pile on the table.

Then there is a messy stack of unidentified bills of exchange, bills of exchange, and bonds of various sizes and denominations that are payable at sight; finally, there are several large handfuls of small pearls and jades, and polished but not ready for inlays. Gems of all colors.

After a preliminary estimate of the value of these money bills, bills of exchange, and bonds, there are probably tens of thousands of coins; in this capital, it can be regarded as a considerable sum of money.You must know that in the capital, the bucket (about ten catties) of rice is only 25 yuan, and the bucket of grain is only eight yuan.

And you can buy a table with eight colors of meat and vegetables for only one hundred yuan; and the private prostitutes who open on the edge of Pingkang Nanli only need three to five yuan for half a month; , Compared with the scale of the Tongqing Qiyuan, only three or four thousand yuan is enough.

Of course, the existence of a place with a beautiful scenery on the side of the Qujiang River like Qingqi Garden is not something that anyone with money can buy; it also needs a corresponding status and even connections.

It can be said that the current Jiang Tian has basically met the basic requirements of later generations "the third ring road of the imperial capital, cars and houses, financial freedom, and a bed full of hand-made".However, to turn these bills into the capital of free operation, it will take some effort.

After thinking about it, he divided these things up again; Jinbao, money notes, and jewelry were all put away; they were placed in a cylinder stacked with calligraphy and painting.Only the largest pile of silver treasures remained on the case; he planned to give some of it to Lao Gu and the other part to Shunqing, as additional household items for internal and external purchases.

Meanwhile, on the lower terrace.

"You know, the slaves are actually very envious of the little lady."

The blind Ayun, who was beside the motionless "Ming Fei", pushed and held her just right, and said in a self-contained way:

"Even if the disaster turns into this appearance, you can still get the protection of your husband, and you will have the opportunity to continue to serve and repay your husband."
