Chapter 492 Family Instructions Are Made for Others to Follow
Shen Xiaoyu said to Leng Junhao: "Your Leng family must have some wealth, right? Otherwise, as your grandfather, you wouldn't have married your mother into the Leng family."

Leng Junhao said: "Have you heard of Southern Leng and Northern Wei?"

Shen Xiaoyu remembered hearing from Yi Xiu that the Southern Cold and the Northern Wei mentioned the two most famous families in Liangkang, and the Northern Wei referred to the family with the surname Wei in the north. They had been making weapons for generations, and the weapons they manufactured were excellent and very Popular with generals.

Although it is a powerful family, the Wei family is still attached to Liang Kang. There are still a few weapons sold to the outside world, and more weapons are made for Liang Kang's army. In the eyes of outsiders, it is no different from the imperial workshop.

But the Leng family is different. The Leng family made their fortune in the northwest and became famous in the south. They have been well-known civil engineering craftsmen for generations. The Leng family has existed for thousands of years, and no matter whether the regime changes, it will not affect the Leng family in the slightest.

The Leng family has never participated in power struggles, and they will support no matter who is the emperor, but their sloppy attitude has made the emperors of all dynasties dare not make a move.

Different from ordinary civil engineering craftsmen, the craftsmen of the Leng family seem to be good at construction, but in fact they are good at making mechanisms. The houses built by the Leng family are not only beautiful in appearance, but also have a universe inside. However, if an enemy breaks in, it is almost impossible to die.

In addition to Lengjiazhuang, the main residence of the Leng family, the most famous masterpiece of the Leng family is a defensive wall built more than a hundred years ago. The defensive wall is located in Yongli Mansion on the southwest coast of Liangkang.Due to the large area, sparse population and rich specialties, the area around Yongli Mansion was harassed by pirates all the year round, and they broke into the city several times to kill and plunder.

The imperial court once sent troops to suppress it, but suffered from the vastness of the sea, and could not find the pirates' lair, and there was no progress for many years. They even sent troops to search for the shadows of the pirates, but the pirates were able to take advantage of the time when the officers and soldiers were exhausted. It was so rampant that it directly attacked the official and military ships at sea, which caused the court a headache.

The Yongli Mansion had also built fortifications before, but these pirates were desperadoes and destroyed the fortifications several times.Finally, Emperor Liang Kang sent someone to find the Leng family.It took five years to build a wall that could be attacked and defended along the coast of Yongli Mansion, blocking the way for pirates to invade.

There have also been pirates who came to attack unwillingly, but they were all blocked by the city wall that implied a mechanism. When a mechanism was touched, thousands of arrows were fired at once. No matter how rampant the pirates were, they would only die.

And these arrows can be reused. After losing a few lives, the pirates stopped going ashore and robbed in the sea instead, but they didn't want the ships modified by Leng's family to imply traps, even if it was just a small one. Fishing boats can also make pirates suffer a lot.

The efforts and benefits outweighed the gains, the pirates finally gave up the fat piece of Yongli Mansion, and Yongli Mansion ushered in a hundred years of comfort, and it is precisely because of this that the Leng family became famous.

It's just that Shen Xiaoyu couldn't understand why the Leng family, who had always been outside the court, let Leng Junhao's father marry Prime Minister Du's daughter?It's just that this is Leng Junhao's family matter, and it's not easy for Shen Xiaoyu to ask.

But he knew Leng Junhao's background, and couldn't help but said: "Your background is not small, but the Leng family has never participated in the affairs of the court. If you help Qin Muyu this time, is it a violation of the Leng family's family?" Training?"

Leng Junhao innocently said: "Does the Leng family have this family motto?"

"do not have it?"

Leng Junhao smiled: "I have lived in another courtyard since I was a child. I have never seen the family motto of the Leng family, and no one has mentioned it to me. Even if there is, it has nothing to do with me? Besides, the family motto is used by the patriarchs to restrain Others, now that I am the head of the Leng family, it is up to me to set the family motto!"

Even though he was speaking arrogantly, Leng Junhao's expression was gentle and reserved, which made Shen Xiaoyu feel that this person was really duplicity.

Soon down the steps to the bottom of the secret room, Shen Xiaoyu smiled when she saw the old doctor tied up in the chair, "Hey, who is this? It looks strangely familiar."

At this time, the old doctor's beard is also crooked, and the wrinkles on his face are also faded, revealing that the face underneath will never be over 30 years old. Unexpectedly, this person pretends to be quite good, and even she has concealed it. He is seventy or eighty.

When the man saw Shen Xiaoyu, he turned his face away, obviously guilty.

Shen Xiaoyu walked in front of him, and saw tea and delicious food on the table next to this person, but his hands and feet were tied to the chair, even if he wanted to eat or drink, he couldn't reach it. It was obvious that Leng Junhao wanted him to break down from the inside ah.

It's just that she didn't expect that Shen Xiaoyu would arrive not long after the talent was tied up, otherwise Shen Xiaoyu would definitely see him staring at the delicious food but could only swallow his mouth water if he came later.

Shen Xiaoyu said to Leng Junhao: "What is the origin of this person, can I ask?"

Leng Junhao shook his head and said with a smile: "It's not yet time, he refuses to say, my people also have doubts about him, that's why they tied him back. Unexpectedly, this person is really weird."

Shen Xiaoyu said: "If you can't ask, then you can't. I know a thing or two about this person's background."

As soon as this statement came out, not only was he tied up, but even Leng Junhao didn't believe it, but Shen Xiaoyu smiled triumphantly: "Are you from the First Prince?"

The man's eyes rolled wildly, as if he still wanted to quibble, but Shen Xiaoyu said, "Bai Wu, do you still want to deny it? I've already figured out your details. If you don't want to step into July, September, and Eleven they Following in the footsteps of others, I advise you to say everything obediently!"

Bai Wu trembled when he heard this, these days the eldest prince's mansion is cloudy, the eldest prince has no better mother than the third and sixth princes, his mother and concubine are not favored, Hua Taishi's mansion is even less able to support him, instead he often stays behind hold him back.

After finally cultivating more than a dozen confidantes, five of them disappeared in the past few days.

Qin Yu would come over to him from time to time to ask him about the whereabouts of the Shen family's mother and daughter, and he also wanted to ask Qin Yu about the whereabouts of his subordinates.He thought that there must be something unclean in the Third Prince's mansion, otherwise why would a good person disappear after entering his mansion?
But these few people are nothing compared to the mother and daughter of the Shen family. He couldn't find any result after asking, so he could only get angry in the mansion, and the few people under his command felt insecure, thinking that it was aimed at them The conspiracy of the First Prince's Mansion, otherwise, why are the missing members of the First Prince's Mansion apart from the mother and daughter of the Shen family?And it really disappeared out of nowhere.

Bai Wu, as the eldest prince's confidant who is fairly high-ranking, has been living in trepidation these days.

But he thought that the missing Shen Xiaoyu was standing in front of him right now, and could interrogate him with a smile, so among the missing people this time, the disappearance of the mother and daughter of the Shen family was fake, and only the disappearance of a few people from the First Prince's Mansion was real.
