The first-class concubine of the Song Dynasty

Chapter 16
The reputation of Liefeng Wine has already been established, and there are many people who come to Liu Family Winery to inquire every day.

Liuwei is busier than before. Brewing Liefeng wine is different from brewing Tanxiang wine. Tanxiang wine does not need to be reprocessed, but Liefeng wine is needed. Now the entire Liu Family Winery only has one steamed wine made by Liuwei. Equipment, although this equipment is not cumbersome, it will take time to use it on a large scale.

This afternoon, after Liu Zhou came out of the place where the wine was steamed, he called several servants of the winery. Although steaming wine is a secret, it is impossible for Liu Wei to make it all by himself, so he decided to When the equipment was almost ready, a few trustworthy people were recruited and asked them to brew strong wind wine.

Now the winery is no longer what it used to be. At the beginning, the people here were all the old department of the Liu family winery, and they were basically trustworthy. However, due to business expansion, many new people were recruited. Those who check the gate have not been tested, Liu Wei still can't believe it.

The few people I found had worked in the Liu Family Winery for many years, and they were absolutely loyal to the Liu Family Winery. After Liu Wei patiently explained to them, he ordered them to operate it by themselves. give up.

After leaving the place where the wine was steamed, Liu Wei went directly to the place where Tanxiang wine was brewed. There were people coming and going in this place, those who moved jars, those who installed altars, etc. People came and went. I feel a little relieved in my heart. When I sell these wines again, I should be able to accumulate a lot of assets in my hands. At that time, it will not be difficult no matter how big I am.

Just when Liu Wei thought this way, the two people who were moving the jar suddenly glanced at each other, and then suddenly threw the wine jar in their hands at Liu Wei, and the wine jar was released, and the two people already had two daggers in their hands.

Everything happened so suddenly that Liu Wei was completely unexpected.

The wine jar was smashed, and the dagger was about to strike.

Someone couldn't help but screamed, and the already chaotic place suddenly became even more chaotic.

"Protect the young master, quickly protect the young master..."

Liu Quan was sorting out the ingredients for wine making when he suddenly saw someone wanting to kill Liu Wei. Those two assassins with daggers?

Seeing the wine jar attacking, Liu Wei was also shocked, but he didn't have time to think about it, and quickly dodged the wine jar sideways, but just as he dodged the wine jar, the assassin's dagger had already struck, Liu Wei's eyebrows were slightly condensed, and he didn't know what to do. When it was all right, the two assassins suddenly let out two screams, and then fell to the ground one after another.

The two assassins fell unconscious, and everyone rushed to protect Liu Wei.

Liu Wei was still calm at this time, pushed away everyone, and asked, "Dead?"

A servant who was a bit more courageous shook his head: "Young master, he's not dead yet, but just fainted. It seems that something hit here." The man pointed to the heads of the two assassins, and saw two assassins. Near the Assassin's temples, there are two red spots.

And just as the servant finished speaking, another person immediately shouted loudly: "It's a kind of dried fruit used for wine making. Come and see, young master, here it is."

Liu Wei looked around and saw two dried fruits. The dried fruits were not very big, the size of the marbles he played with when he was a child, but now they are all cracked. , Only two dried fruits were used to solve the two assassins, who is he, and why did he save himself?

Since he saved himself, why didn't he show up?

Liu Wei didn't say anything, and told the people next to him: "Tie up these two people, and follow me to the Kaifeng government office."

After sending the two assassins to the Kaifeng government office, Jin Wang Zhao Guangyi immediately ordered the two assassins to be taken into prison, and then he looked at Liu Wei and asked, "Has Madam Liu ever offended anyone?"

Since Liu Wei was beaten that night, there were only two offenders, one was Pan Weide Pan's son-in-law, and the other was Huo Cheng, the owner of Xiangqianli Winery, but Liu Wei didn't think that Pan Weide would send an assassin to kill him, so the only possibility Huo Cheng is the only one.

If Pan Weide's affairs cannot be said, then he can only tell about Huo Cheng's affairs.

King Jin knew more about the two assassins than Liu Wei, and what he said just now was just a formality. After listening to Liu Wei's words, King Jin nodded slightly: "In that case, Prince Consort Liu should be more careful in the future. The Kaifeng government will solve the case as soon as possible."

Liu Wei thanked her again and again, and wanted to tell the story of her being rescued, but after thinking about it, she felt that it was inappropriate, so she had to give up in the end.

After Liu Wei left Kaifeng Mansion, he immediately returned to the Princess Mansion.

As soon as he returned to the mansion, the green clothes hurried up to greet him: "My son-in-law, just now the servants sent the news that you were assassinated, are you alright?"

Liu Wei smiled lightly: "It's okay, the assassin has been sent to Kaifeng Mansion!" Speaking of this, Liu Wei hesitated, but finally asked: "Where is the princess?"

"The princess heard that the son-in-law was assassinated, and was very anxious. He thought that the son-in-law was still at the Liu Family Winery, so he took Xiaoyu to the Liu Family Winery. The slaves should go and invite the Princess back."

When Liu Wei heard that Princess Ruyi got nervous, she felt overjoyed, so she quickly nodded, but just as Lu Yi was about to leave the mansion, Princess Ruyi rushed back from the outside, presumably she hadn't seen her at the Liu Family Winery When it comes to Liuwei, it turns around.

Princess Ruyi returned to the mansion, and after seeing Liu Wei, she immediately shunned the servant girls, and when there were only the two of them left in the room, Princess Ruyi said, "It's good that the son-in-law is fine."

Liu Wei glanced affectionately, and said, "Let the princess worry."

The Princess looked a little calm, and said: "It's okay, but does the son-in-law know who is going to kill you?"

"I think they are from Xiangqianli Winery. After all, Liujia Winery reopened, but they are overwhelmed."

Princess Ruyi frowned slightly, and said with some doubts: "If it's just a business competition, there is absolutely no reason to commit murder, and if you think about it again, will you offend others?" Speaking of this, Princess Ruyi seemed to think of Liu Wei again When he was attacked that night, he couldn't help showing a little nervous look.

All of this was seen by Liu Wei, and she couldn't help but feel warmer in her heart. Since she was gradually recognized by Princess Ruyi, it feels really good to be cared about. She just didn't know when she would agree to consummate the house.

"What did the son-in-law think of?" Princess Ruyi saw Liu Wei staring at her suddenly, but didn't speak, thinking he remembered something, so she asked again.

Liu Wei already knew that the matter between himself and Pan Weide was only caused by Qin Yun. If Pan Weide hit him once, he probably would not send someone to assassinate him again, so he shook his head: "No, the reason why I want to come to Xiangqianli Winery is not just because of business. The above reason is against my Liu Family Winery, the princess knows it, and my Liu Family Winery has provided financial support to the imperial court a lot in the past."

Speaking of this, Liu Wei didn't say any more. Princess Ruyi is a smart person, and he just needs to point out a lot of things.

Princess Ruyi was stunned for a moment after hearing this, as if she was shocked by Liu Wei's words, because she never thought about it, if Xiangqianli Winery sent someone to assassinate Liu Wei, it was because Liu Family Winery was the imperial court. If financial support is provided, the problem of Xiangqianli Winery will be serious. I am afraid that it is for the purpose of overthrowing the Song Dynasty.

"No, I have to go to Kaifeng Mansion to meet King Jin immediately, and I must tell him about it."

Princess Ruyi was about to get up when Liu Wei suddenly stretched out her hand to grab her. Her arms were so slender and soft, holding them gave people a warm feeling. This was the first time Liu Wei had such a direct relationship with her. Physical contact.

"No need, I think King Jin knows."

"You know? How is this possible?"

Liu Wei smiled slightly, and then talked about the assassin's assassination of him and someone secretly saving him, and after finishing speaking, he said: "Although I don't know who the person who saved me is, I think that person has something to do with the court. The recent mutual squeeze between Xiangqianli Winery and Liujia Winery may have aroused the suspicion of the court, so they sent someone to protect me."

Hearing what Liu Wei said, Princess Ruyi suddenly thought of King Jin's intelligence, so she nodded slightly and gave up.
-
Kaifeng House.

Although King Jin is the Governor of Kaifeng, he does not need to do many things by himself, such as interrogating prisoners; in Kaifeng Mansion, King Jin has two right and left hands, one is Su Jiaokan, and the other is Shen Tan.

Su Tongkan has a thorough analysis of the current situation, he is a rare counselor, and he is responsible for all the information needed by the King of Jin, while Shen Tan is a person with superhuman talent in torture. It was impossible, and none of the prisoners he questioned could hide the truth.

Su Tong looked like a middle-aged man, but Shen Tan was a boy in his 20s.

"Mr. Su, Xiangqianli Winery is still making a move!"

Su Tongkan nodded slightly: "That's right, but they made a move, which just gave us a chance."

"Has someone been sent to spy on Xiangqianli Winery?"

"King Jin can rest assured that Xiang Qianli will always be under our surveillance until Tan Tan asks the truth."

The two of them were talking, when a voice suddenly came from outside: "My minister Shen Tan, I have something to report."

King Jin smiled slightly: "Cao Cao Cao Cao will be here, Mr. Shen, come in!"

The door opened with a creak, and a fat man walked in from the outside. The man's face was bloodshot, and he must have been angry in the prison.

King Jin saw Shen Tan coming in, and asked, "Master Shen, has the investigation been clear?"

Shen Tan nodded, and said: "Returning to the prince, no prisoner can keep his mouth shut in front of each other's torture. The matter has been investigated clearly, but... it's just that this matter is not simple."

"It's okay, just tell me."
