Splendid Abandoned Wife

Chapter 387
The old master's prophecy was too far away, they had already paid a huge price for it, and the future was even more bleak, so it was not worthwhile for Kaiping to believe it.But for his second uncle's fortune-telling, although he had to mutter a few words every time, he looked forward to it every time because it was indeed quite accurate.It's just that my second uncle rarely does divination, only once a year at most, saying that God has a certain number, so don't ask too many questions.

In the past two or three years, the second uncle has only read two hexagrams. One was to ask about the young master's life and death, and the other was to ask about the young master's current situation not long ago.

"If that's the case," Kaiping said with a smile, "I think it's good for the young master to stay in Meizhuang."

Master Jin glared at him: "What's so good? What kind of identity is the young master... Oh, I don't know what happened to him?" Is it just that he doesn't remember anything, or is his brain really broken?How bad is it?If it is true..., how can he face his old master when he goes underground?

He had heard before that the young master might be crazy and had amnesia. Perhaps he was deceiving himself subconsciously. Although he was sad, he was more hopeful that the young master was pretending to protect himself.Now that he was expected to find someone soon, he couldn't help but start to feel worried.It was his carelessness that put the young master in danger. If he could, he really hoped that the crazy, amnesiac, and martial arts man was himself, so that the young master could be well.

If Kaiping heard his second uncle's thoughts, he would definitely sneer: You old man knows many things, but you don't know martial arts. How can you lose all your martial arts skills?

Mr. Jin went to Luo City with a worried heart, and the way forward was unclear.However, Mr. Jin, who was originally very proud in Changyang City, suddenly found himself trapped in a dragnet, unable to fly.Until the moment he reluctantly closed his eyes, he didn't understand what went wrong.

In the dead of night, he led people to move six boxes of things into the small courtyard. Seeing that the last box was about to be carried into the cellar, he took a long breath and was secretly proud of successfully completing the task. On the other side, he came to Changyang with him. The young accountant suddenly exclaimed: "Uncle Jin, come and see!"

He glanced disdainfully, but walked over: "What's all the fuss about?"

I have already said that there is nothing to check. The two dwarfs were personally appointed by the lord. How dare they steal gold bars and spend them?Hey, it's also his fault that he told the nerds and others so much about Yu's great achievements before that the nerds almost followed the rules set by Yu as imperial edicts.The boxes contain either gold bars, silver ingots or rare treasures. Are the nerds dazzled?Ha ha!Fuss!
"What...what is going on?" When the smiling Uncle Jin's eyes fell on the box that made the "nerd" stunned, he froze for an instant and shouted, "Dwarf! Shorty!" At this time, he no longer cared about whether his loud voice would spread outside or whether someone would discover the secret of this small courtyard.

Even the "nerd" in his words was stunned, secretly thinking that although the matter was serious, if it were Mr. Yu, he would not be so abnormal.

"That's what you saw. What's all the fuss about?" A nice but ruffian voice hit their ears without warning.

Uncle Jin turned around suddenly, as if he had seen a ghost: "Pan...Pan Jiaming, how...why are you here." He blinked hard. It was really Pan Jiaming and Xiao Feng. He was not stunned.Not only that, what did Pan Jiaming mean by what he said just now?How did he know what they saw?Could it be that he changed the contents of the box?No, absolutely impossible!How could Pan Jiaming, a loser, have such ability?
"Oh, you still know me," Pan Jiaming waved his fan despite the cold in the middle of the night, "But how come this Uncle Jin, who we have admired for so long, is a stammer? It seems that your lord has very special preferences in employing people. He likes to use A flawed and abnormal person, haha, Liu Shoubei, don’t you think so?”

Uncle Jin's brain was running out of energy at the moment. After hearing Pan Jiaming's last words, he realized that there was an acquaintance standing next to Xiao Feng in armor and armor, Liangjiang Guards Liu Yanhao.His eyes were dizzy. Pan Jiaming could directly mobilize Liu Yanhao?Looking at Pan Jiaming, who still looked like a ruffian, his head was spinning, but there was another voice roaring in his heart. He seemed to have missed something.

Unless there is an order from the top, local officials govern civil and military affairs separately and do not interfere with each other.Even Liu Yanhao's army could not enter the city without special circumstances.Of course, the prefect Wang Wenshan could not mobilize Liu Yanhao's army.

He once wanted to win over Liu Yanhao on behalf of his lord, but this man was also a foolish loyalist, and very slippery. To put it in Wang Wenshan's words, he collected the gold and silver treasures in vain, and the stunning beauties gave them away, so he was highly vigilant.He just said a few peripheral words, and before he got to the point, he was like a hedgehog showing off his thorns, and he almost became suspicious of him.

However, in the middle of the night, Liu Yanhao appeared with Pan Jiaming in their cellar secret room. No, not only Liu Yanhao, but also many heavily armed soldiers.He knew without thinking that the two dwarfs above were either dead or under control.

Not only Uncle Jin was full of doubts, Liu Yanhao was also in disbelief: "Cui Minxi, why are you here? Does Prince Fu know?"

Pan Jiaming and Xiao Feng looked at each other, both of them were shocked by Liu Yanhao's words: "Liu Shoubei, do you know him? Is he from Prince Fu?" He has been to Prince Fu's Mansion many times and has never seen this person before. .

Liu Yanhao nodded: "Not only do I know him, but I am also an old acquaintance with him. We took the martial arts examination together. However, he did not continue after passing the martial arts examination. He said that he defected to Prince Fu, and his sister was the fourth son of Prince Fu's mansion. One of the wives." According to the rules, the prince can have one main concubine, two side concubines, four wives, and the rest are concubines.

"Oh? What does he do in Prince Fu's Mansion? I don't think I've seen him before." Pan Jiaming's heart became heavy. Is he really Prince Fu?King Fu has been fond of playing music, chess, calligraphy and painting since he was a child. He is not only good at painting, but also writes poems, which is elegant and charming. He is very popular among the elite and scholars.The two monkeys he used to scare away Princess Thea were the ones entrusted by the Blessed King to hunt for him to paint.

Liu Yanhao really knew something: "I don't know the details, but I met him once last year. He said he traveled around for Prince Fu, managing Zhuangzi and some businesses outside Beijing."

"I see," Pan Jiaming took up the folded fan and tapped the other palm rhythmically, "Since he is Prince Fu's half-brother-in-law, it's easy to talk to him, so he won't cut off his hand tendons and hamstrings before taking him back to Beijing, and lock them with shackles. That's right." According to the usual practice, important witnesses in major cases like the salt tax case are put in large iron cages and sent back to Beijing for trial. Those who are good at martial arts have to cut off their hand tendons and hamstrings first to prevent someone from robbing the prisoners and escaping on the way. What. . "You..." Uncle Jin, uh, Cui Minxi, codenamed "Jin", gritted his teeth and looked at Pan Jiaming. He was proud, how could he suffer such humiliation?When people like them choose to take this path, they become a special type of gambler, willing to admit defeat. Since he was wrong and made a big mistake, he can only die to apologize. I believe his family Will be well arranged.

Just when he made up his mind, Pan Jiaming suddenly appeared in front of him. His movements were as fast as lightning. Before he could react, his jaw was removed.In the blink of an eye, Pan Jiaming hit him on the back. He felt his back go numb and his whole body went limp.

Cui Minxi's eyes widened in horror. Not only was he horrified, but he was also extremely unbelievable that his martial arts was ruined by Pan Jiaming!
Liu Yanhao also couldn't believe it. When Pan Jiaming revealed the imperial edict, he was still not satisfied with the emperor sending such an invisible imperial minister who "sees the jade pendant as if he sees me".When he stood at the entrance of the tunnel in this courtyard and saw the boxes of gold and silver, he was shocked to realize that he might have seen the wrong thing like most people and underestimated this Mingshizi.

But now, when he saw Pan Jiaming easily removing Cui Minxi's chin and destroying his martial arts as if for fun, he was really shocked. With just two actions, he already knew that he The former champion of martial arts might not be able to withstand Ming Shizi's thirty moves.Is this really the so-called British prince Pan Jiaming who "cannot be successful in military affairs"?

No wonder the emperor always favored this nephew, no wonder the emperor sent him to Changzhou to crack this hard nut.Liu Yanhao didn't know whether he should think too much, but he really suspected that the emperor was deliberately adding fuel to the fire. Pan Jiaming's bad reputation as "the first of the three hegemons" and "the number one dude" was intended to be used to catch the big tiger by surprise.Look, Pan Jiaming like this makes people defenseless. As soon as he punches people, stars will appear in their eyes and they will not know where they are.

Tsk tsk, fortunately, I have always only believed in one thing, only listened to the emperor's will, and did not participate in the dirty things of Wang Wenshan and Dai Pinchao, nor did I follow Wang Wenshan's side.In fact, he really felt that the people who took sides were quite stupid. The emperor was in his prime, and if he could depose one prince, he might depose the second one. So why are you so anxious to take sides?No matter how the prince is the prince, he is still not the emperor, right?
Fortunately, Wang Wenshan was still dreaming and couldn't hear Liu Yanhao's thoughts, otherwise he would just roll his eyes: What could he care about with a simple-minded warrior with well-developed limbs?The greater the risk, the greater the reward, don’t you know?Of course they know that the prince is not the emperor yet, but if they rely on the prince to become the emperor, can they still call it the power of following the dragon?

Liu Yanhao was shocked, but firstly he had no evil intentions in his heart, and secondly he believed that he had never offended Pan Jiaming. As soon as he saw the imperial edict, he abandoned Wenxiang Nuanyu and followed him in person, without delaying Mingshizi's arrest of the thief, so he didn't have any trouble at all. Not afraid of anything.No matter how high Pan Jiaming's martial arts is, no matter how extraordinary his moves are, he still won't be able to completely cripple his martial arts, right?

As for whether Shuo Shu, the big thief who stole the salt tax, was Prince Fu or the prince he thought he was before, he would not ask more or worry about it. This was not a matter that a military general should or could interfere with.

However, there are still some things that need to be taken care of: "Prince Ming, with so much property and these criminals coming to Beijing, do you need us to send someone to escort them, or do you want the prefect to arrange it?" Although he knew that Wang Wenshan didn't do it either. It's clean, but there is no evidence and there is no authority to intervene. It is better to follow the steps and make routine inquiries.

"If you want to trouble Liu Shoubei," Pan Jiaming cupped his hand and said with a smile, "It doesn't take much. Liu Shoubei just gives me 25 brothers who are good at skills and dexterity. There are so many boxes here, except for the six that were just brought in. It’s just rocks and rubble, and the real good stuff is already on the way to Beijing, so I don’t have enough manpower, so I have to borrow Liu Shoubei’s people.”

Liu Yanhao's eyes widened again. No wonder Cui Minxi was making a fuss and going crazy over a big box when they came in just now. It turned out that the gold and silver treasures inside had turned into stones and rubble. Who wouldn't be panicking?

However, looking at dozens of big boxes at a glance, how did Ming Shizi and his people do it?Well, a hero comes from a young man, but since he didn't want to explain, it was difficult for him to ask. He was not familiar with Prince Ming.

Of course, even if he did ask, Pan Jiaming would not tell him that the Piaoxiang Tea Shop is now the Eagle Guard's stronghold in Changzhou.Changzhou is too rich in oil and water, and tigers and wolves are naturally in succession. Who knows when the emperor will use him and his eagle guards again, so it is better to keep this stronghold.

"Liu Shoubei has contributed a lot to solving this major case this time," Pan Jiaming continued, "The emperor said that no matter how many tigers and wolves there are here, Liu Shoubei will only be a hunter who kills tigers and wolves. He specifically told me that if you need anything, please feel free to contact me." If I ask you for help, you will definitely cooperate with me."

Liu Yanhao first bowed his hands respectfully in the direction of the capital, claiming, "With your majesty's trust, I will bow to you and die." Then he said to Pan Jiaming: "Prince Ming is a young talent and a pillar of the country. I can have this opportunity." It's my honor to help you, and of course it's also my responsibility. I really can't bear the words "indispensable"."

Dozens of large boxes of things could be stolen and transported back to Beijing without a trace, and the secret actions of Cui Minxi and others were also watched. He really believed that without him, Pan Jiaming would be just as capable of stealing. Get them and send these people and things back to Beijing.

Pan Jiaming invited him to participate in today's operation and asked him to give him 25 capable men. In fact, he intended to share the credit with him and his men. He may have hidden clumsiness and did not want to expose everything about him in front of everyone at once. strength.

If he refuses, it will be pretentious and meaningless, and the soldiers under his command will be even more disappointed. It is better to accept the favor.

The actions of Pan Jiaming and Liu Yanhao were silent at the beginning. Now that they have achieved a complete victory and gained both people and stolen goods, there is no need to cover up any more.As a result, the sleeping people, watchmen, and night watchmen in the neighbors quickly discovered the movement.Early the next morning, word spread in the streets and alleys that Pan Shizi and the troops guarding Liangjiang intercepted dozens of large boxes of unidentified stolen goods overnight and prepared to transport them back to the capital that day.

It is said that Dai Pinchao, the salt transport envoy from Liangjiang River, peed his pants after hearing the news before he got up early in the morning. Wang Wenshan, the prefect of Changzhou, also wandered around like an ant on a hot pot.After the two people calmed down a little, they only thought of one question: Prince Pan?Are you talking about the British prince Pan Jiaming?
