Prince of Song Dynasty

Chapter 439 Yu Daoxiang is Missing
When Ye Chen met with Liu Linxuan, he took the opportunity to hint that he wanted to meet Liu Jinyu, the actual head of the household department of the Southern Tang Dynasty in person.Liu Linxuan agreed on the spot, and under the impatient thoughts of both parties, it was decided that Ye Chen and his wife would come to visit tomorrow night.

night, no moon.

At the mansion of Liu Jinyu, Minister of the Ministry of Household Affairs of the Southern Tang Dynasty, a banquet was held for Chen Qing, the number one talented scholar in Jinling, and Chen Qing, the new Deputy Envoy of the Intelligence Department of the newly established Military Intelligence Office.

With Liu Jinyu's status and status, no matter whether it is a senior member of the Southern Tang Fourth Rank on the bright side, or one of the leaders of the Jiangnan Commercial Bank and Jiangnan Bank in the Southern Tang Dynasty, and the elder of the outer door of the temple, a small official seven Pin Xin's appointment as a small official is obviously enough to reflect Liu Jinyu's sincerity.

In fact, Liu Jinyu does have the sincerity that is imperative. Of course, this kind of sincerity is not only a lure that makes everyone tempted, but also Chen Qing, who Ye Chen pretends to be, will die if he does not agree to join them.

The banquet started normally, but going to Liu's mansion tonight is not destined to be peaceful.

There were only Liu Jinyu, Liu Linxuan, father and son, and Ye Chen and his wife at the banquet, but the food and wine were very rich.

However, not long after the beginning, a housekeeper from the mansion hurried in, lowered his voice and said in Liu Jinyu's ear: "Master, a man in black was found in the mansion, and he was extremely skilled. Zhang Huwei and the others lost it, but we can be sure." Yes, the man in black may still be in the mansion. He seems to be looking for something."

Liu Jinyu's expression remained the same, but her gaze became a little gloomy. She turned her head and said to Ye Chen with a smile, "Nephew Chen Xian, I'm sorry, there is something that needs to be dealt with in the mansion. The old man will come as soon as he goes."

Ye Chen quickly stood up and said, "Your Excellency, you are welcome."

As expected, Liu Jinyu came as soon as he went, because he just left the hall door, so he said to the butler, "It's probably the Maitreya sect. This is not the first time. Mobilize all hands and find him for me."

The butler said yes respectfully, then turned and left.

Regardless of whether the housekeeper was in Liu Jinyu's ear before or just outside the door just now, what they said was in a very low voice, let alone ordinary people, even ordinary experts could not hear clearly, but Ye Chen is naturally not in the category of ordinary experts Within a few days, these words were heard in my ears word for word.In fact, even if Ye Chen didn't hear it, he could guess the content of what the two said, because the man in black was Lian Jicheng, deputy envoy of the Assassination Department of the Huaxia Weifu Intelligence Department.He appeared in the Liu Mansion following his order, and deliberately let the people in the Liu Mansion find out.

There must be many masters around Liu Jinyu, and Liu Jinyu herself is also a master, so it is not difficult to guess and inquire about these news.Lian Jicheng's use of superb body skills to lure the people around Liu Jinyu away was an important part of tonight's plan.

Guessing that the masters in Liu's residence had been lured away by Lian Jicheng, Yu Qingyan and Ye Chen started to do it with some familiarity.But obviously, Liu Jinyu is not such an easy person to deal with.

Yu Qingyan's poison was still so nonchalant, and there was no sign at all. Unknowingly, the Liu family father and son had been poisoned.But Liu Linxuan passed out, but Liu Jinyu's internal energy was extremely deep, his face changed drastically, his figure staggered, and he fled outside resolutely without asking nonsense like 'who are you'.

It's just that Ye Chen has already rushed towards him like a cheetah poised to hunt.In this state, Liu Jinyu still had the strength to do it. With a loud roar, he punched Ye Chen at the same time as a warning to the outsiders.

Ye Chen chuckled, his entire right arm trembled suddenly, and he also punched him.

With a bang, Ye Chen fell to the ground, motionless, and looked at his right hand with a satisfied look on his face.But Liu Jinyu screamed, flew out, hit the wall, made a human-shaped imprint, landed on the ground, spit out a mouthful of blood on the spot, could no longer suppress the poison with true energy, and passed out directly.

Yu Qingyan, who had just given silver needles to Liu Linxuan next to her, ran up to him with small steps, and in the flashing silver light, eight silver needles had already pierced Liu Jinyu's head.

At the same time, Lou Yanming and Shangguan Bingyun received a secret report from Do Luo, one of the Four Great Vajras who had sneaked into the Great River Gang, in the Maitreya Temple, which was located deep in the imperial city and was as magnificent as the Tai Chi Hall in the Southern Tang Dynasty Palace.The content of the secret report is that by a coincidence, some strange things were discovered unintentionally, and it was speculated that Liu Jinyu, the servant of the household department of the Southern Tang Dynasty, was the dark son of the temple.

If it was just this one incident, it would not be enough for Lou Yanming to decide to take action against Liu Jinyu immediately. It was unbearable.In his opinion, the Southern Tang Kingdom is the foundation of his Maitreya Sect. Liu Jinyu controls the financial power of the Southern Tang Dynasty, which has already stabbed Lou Yanming's back, and now he is trying to mix with the military government.This is absolutely intolerable to him.

In addition, Lou Yanming and Shangguan Bingyun also knew that if Liu Jinyu could be caught and some secrets or bills were known through his mouth, they could use this to blackmail some important figures in Southern Tang, Song and even Khitan.If this is the case, the harvest will be great.

Therefore, Lou Yanming went to Li Yu himself, explained the situation, took a copy of the imperial decree, and then asked the Ministry of Criminal Justice to lead people to arrest Liu Jinyu, and secretly Shangguan Bingyun also led a group of experts to sneak to Liu's residence.

At the same time, in Liu Jinyu's residence.

Liu Jinyu asked Liu Linxuan to send Ye Chen and Yu Qingyan, who had been frightened a lot, to leave. When they heard the movement, more than 20 masters including three first-class masters came over and said with a gloomy expression: "We have been tricked by the enemy to turn the tiger away from the mountain." As a plan, more than one thief sneaked in tonight, and another person sneaked in here, trying to assassinate me, um... Maybe his real purpose is not to assassinate me, but to test my martial arts, no, my identity may have been It was revealed that Lou Yanming and Shangguan Bingyun had probably brought their people here. Everyone immediately broke up and evacuated quickly to meet up at Zhoujiazhuang in Shuzhou. Over there, there are experts in the hall to respond."

Although the identities of these people on the stand were only the guards, servants, butlers of the Liu Mansion, they were actually core members of the temple, and their status was not low.At this time, after hearing Liu Jinyu's words, his face was solemn, but he was not panicked, and began to evacuate quickly.

By the time the three chief arresters of the Ministry of Punishment led five hundred masters of the Ministry of Punishment, arresters and soldiers to surround the Liu Mansion, the Liu Mansion had become an empty mansion except for a few insignificant servants.

Shangguan Bingyun, who had already entered Liu's mansion secretly, looked a little livid, turned around and glanced at the more than 20 masters he had brought with him, his face uncertain.

Before the people from the Ministry of Criminal Justice came to Liu's Mansion, including the three chief arresters who led the team, they didn't know that the target was Liu Jinyu, so it was impossible to leak the secret.So only some of the more than 20 masters that I personally brought leaked the news secretly.

"As expected, there are people from the temple in my Maitreya Sect." Shangguan Bingyun's eyes were filled with murderous intent, but he didn't take any action immediately without evidence to identify a certain person.She remembered that her assassination against Jinling Mansion Yin Wang Dongyang was discovered in advance at the Oiran Banquet the day before yesterday, and Liu Jinyu's son Liu Linxuan was also present at that time. Now it seems that it was probably leaked by the same person.

After thinking about this point, Shangguan Bingyun's heart was full of murderous intentions for this person, and he had secretly vowed that after finding this person, he must make his life worse than death.

The Secretary of the Ministry of Punishment belongs to Lou Yanming. With a word from Lou Yanming, the masters of the Ministry of Punishment mobilized arresters from all over the country, mobilized local soldiers, and started the arrest of Liu Jinyu.

In addition, Liu Jinyu's accident did not affect the "siege" of Jiangnan Commercial Bank and Jiangnan Bank on the commercial level of Wuyue Bank.As a matter of fact, the specific operation of this matter is in charge of the masters of the temple who are proficient in commercial warfare, and Liu Jinyu is only responsible for helping to raise 200 million cash.

Based on the fact that the temple is located in the south of the Yangtze River, Liu Jinyu and his party easily left Jinling City and escaped from the city.And fled all the way to the southwest of Shuzhou.

After the appointment of Chen Qing, who was dressed by Ye Chen, was officially issued, he first visited Lin Renzhao, the No. Wait for the next step to win over.

Then, with the support of Lin Renzhao, they started recruiting talented people and strangers in a big way. In just half a month, besides the ten strong soldiers that Lin Renzhao sent to Ye Chen, nearly forty more were recruited. The so-called folk masters.After Lou Yanming paid a little attention to these forty so-called masters, he didn't pay any more attention after he learned that they were just some people who had broken boulders in their chests and could climb poles and play fairy ropes.

And just half a month after Liu Jinyu escaped, a group of masters led by the three chief arresters of the Ministry of Criminal Justice had great luck and caught Liu Jinyu in a small county outside Shuzhou City.

After the news came, in a compound of the military intelligence office of the yamen that Lin Renzhao helped to coordinate, Chen Qing, the only deputy envoy of the intelligence department of the chief executive, was holding a meeting.

"My lord, according to our arrangement, Liu Jinyu was betrayed by the people we arranged in Gaoyang County outside Shuzhou City, and was captured by the three chief arresters of the Ministry of Criminal Justice and his masters. Now he is being escorted to Jinling." Has successfully joined the Southern Tang Dynasty Feng Zhiyuan from the Intelligence Department of the Ministry of Military Intelligence said.

Ye Chen smiled slightly and said: "Very well, everything is in our plan. Now that Liu Jinyu is in the hands of the Maitreya Sect, the church will never suspect us. In this way, after going north to Kaifeng in a few days, Only by attacking some people can we catch them all in one go. And we won’t scare the snakes. Well, wait until Wuyue King Qian Zhiyin starts to close the net, let Nanfu Liu Jinyuan lead the Dajiang Gang to take 200 million taels of the temple in the name of Maitreya Sect. After we get the money, we will retreat. Hu Sanguang, you can plan your retreat now. Remember that the Chen family should also consider it, and try to arrange for them some retreat. I don’t want to turn back because of our plan. Let the Chen family be punished by the nine clans."

Right here, a spy wearing the uniform of the Intelligence Department of the Southern Tang Army came in, and said to Ye Chen, "My lord, Hai Dongqing just flew back, and Mrs. Yu is missing."

Ye Chen stood up suddenly, his face changed.
