Detective Di Renjie's legend of Wu Dynasty

Chapter 605 Conspiracy?

At this time, Ge Biao in front of the courtyard came forward and said, "Master."

Ge Tianba said in a low voice: "Ge Biao, for some reason, I always feel that there is something wrong with that Shui Sheng and Mizuki."

Ge Biao was startled and said, "Oh?"

Ge Tianba said: "Especially Shui Sheng's amazing martial arts...

If he is really a fool who lost his memory and can be used by me, that is of course the best.

With that kung fu, even ten Deng Tong on fast horses could not catch up in three years. With him, what else can we not do?
What's more, those people in the Iron Hands Group have to look at us highly. "

Ge Biao nodded and said, "That's right."

"However, if the two of them are pretending to be crazy, approaching Xiaoqing, waiting for an opportunity to break into the village, and attempting to rob my Yanshi tycoon or the government's secret line, then his kung fu will become a disaster."

Ge Biao was startled and said, "Master, what do you mean...?"

Ge Tianba pondered for a long time, then raised his head and said: "Send someone to monitor the East Courtyard day and night, and if they find any abnormalities in Shuisheng and Mizuki, kill them immediately!"

Ge Biao was taken aback: "Miss, where...?"

Ge Tianba waved his hands impatiently: "Qing'er is a child, leave her alone. Follow my orders."

Ge Biao nodded, hesitantly said: "Master, with Shui Sheng's skill, I'm afraid no one in our village can kill him, right?"

Ge Tianba glared at him and cursed: "Idiot, you can't do it clearly, but you can't come in the dark. You can't use a knife, can't you poison it?"

Ge Biao suddenly realized: "Ah, the little one understands. But who will be sent to monitor him?
Ordinary servants are probably very difficult to do the job, even if they do it reluctantly, they are afraid that they will be careless and slack.

Let the bosses go, this kind of trivial matter seems a bit unreasonable..."

Ge Tianba pondered for a moment, then smiled and said: "You don't have to worry about this matter, I have my own way."

Ge Biao nodded.

Ge Tianba let out a long breath, and said with a smile on his face: "There is one more thing today, which surprised me very much."

Ge Biao asked, "What is it?"

Ge Tianba said: "I don't know why, Qing'er and Pang Si, the leader of the Yan Xiao, have become good friends."

Ge Biao was surprised: "Oh?"

Ge Tianba hissed softly, and said in a low voice: "And, I'm sure, she knows where the Yan Xiaos are stationed."

Ge Biao said in surprise, "Is this true?"

A smirk appeared on Ge Tianba's face: "For two years, these salt owls have been elusive and have repeatedly taken advantage of our loopholes.

Our salt is sold to salt merchants in various places for two hundred cents a bucket, but these poor people sell their salt to the common people for only one hundred cents a bucket.

Hmph, if the salt merchants lose their money, our credit will also be lost. Who will do business with us?
Therefore, the government is not scary now, the most terrifying thing is these salt lords. "

Ge Biao nodded.

Ge Tianba said: "I have been worrying about not being able to find a place to live for these poor people. I didn't expect this matter to fall on my daughter. God help me!"

He looked around and said with a smirk: "I pretended to promise Qing'er to talk to Pang Si, I think, she will definitely deliver the letter. As soon as Qing'er leaves the village, you will send someone to follow..."

Ge Biao laughed and said, "Master is brilliant. If you find the place where the salt lords live, you can wipe them all out, and you will never have trouble again!"

An unpredictable and profound smile appeared on Ge Tianba's face: "Not only to kill them, but I also want to use these salt lords to accomplish a great event. This is called killing two birds with one stone!"

Ge Biao was stunned: "Oh, what's the big deal?"

Ge Tianba smiled and said, "You will understand."

……

In the main hall of Xingyuan, Zeng Tai, Feng Keyan and Xiao Bao rushed to greet Di Renjie when he saw Di Renjie returning home.

Feng Keyan said: "Mr. Ge, how are you doing? What have you gained?"

Di Renjie said: "According to the shopkeeper of Hongtong Cabinet, the 20 taels of silver were indeed deposited into the Yangzhou joint account by Li Han."

Feng Keyan said: "It seems that Li Han accepts bribes, which is already certain."

Di Renjie smiled without comment and said: "He also said that when Li Han deposited the silver, he left his autograph."

Zeng Tai raised his eyebrows and said, "Oh?"

Di Renjie looked at Xiao Bao: "How about Xiao Bao, what do you gain by following that manager?"

Xiao Bao said with a smile: "My lord, you are really good at predicting things. Not long after you entered, the shopkeeper and the manager slipped out from the back door. They muttered a few words in a low voice, and the manager rode away. Followed up later and found that he entered Prince Ying's Mansion in Changyifang, south of the city."

Di Renjie was taken aback: "King Ying? It's him!"

Xiao Bao nodded and said, "Exactly. After about a moment, the steward came out of the palace and returned to the cabinet workshop."

Di Renjie nodded and said: "He must have brought back the master's message, so the shopkeeper gave me the cash. It seems that the owner of Hongtong Cabinet is King Ying."

Zeng Tai asked from the side: "Master, what is the origin of this King Ying?"

Di Renjie explained: "King Ying's name is Yuan Qi, and he is one of the few kings with different surnames in this dynasty. When he put down Yangzhou Governor Shi Xu Jingye's rebellion, he contributed money and efforts for the Holy Majesty, which was very popular with him.

After the chaos was settled, the Holy Lord allowed him to stay in Yangzhou forever.Unexpectedly, he actually managed such a huge cabinet shop. "

Zeng Tai let out an "oh" and nodded.

Di Renjie thought about it for a while, and said, "When I was talking with the shopkeeper of Hongtong Cabinetry just now, I discovered several doubts."

Zeng Tai hurriedly asked: "What doubt?"

Di Renjie said: "First of all, he said that the 20 taels of silver was deposited in the cabinet by Li Han himself, and he also left his autograph."

Zeng Tai asked strangely: "Master, what's suspicious about this?"

Di Renjie said: "Think about it, if Li Han really accepted a bribe of 20 taels of silver, as a fourth-rank official and an imperial envoy, it would be fine to leave such trivial matters to his cronies.

Why did he go to the cabinet to deposit silver in person?And left your own autograph? "

Zeng Tai nodded and said, "Well, that's true."

Di Renjie said: "The second doubtful point is that the shopkeeper of the cabinet actually knew that Li Han's official position is the doctor of the Ministry of Water, which is even more suspicious.

Even if Li Han went to the cabinet shop to deposit the silver in person, it was enough to leave his name, so how could he also inform the cabinet shopkeeper of his official position?
Isn't this very dangerous.As a person in the officialdom, Li Han will never understand this truth. "

Zeng Tai and Feng Keyan looked at each other and said, "Not bad."

"The third doubt is that they already know the news of Li Han's death. This matter is a top secret of the imperial court. Where did the businessmen in the counter shop find out?

Through these points, I came to a conclusion that there must be inextricable connections between Hongtong Cabinet and Yangzhou official circles.And regarding Li Han's death, they must have some inside information. "

"Oh, what's the inside story?"

"It's hard to say now. Oh, by the way, Zeng Tai, have Li Han's suicide note and other relics Cui Liang delivered?"

"It has been delivered."

"Bring it to me."

Zeng Tai walked quickly to the table, picked up a stack of files, opened it, took out a piece of letter paper and handed it to Di Renjie, "This is the death letter left by Li Han."

Di Renjie took it and looked it over quickly: "Are there any documents written by Li Han in the file?"

Zeng Tai nodded and said, "Yes."

As he spoke, he found a copy of Yiwen from the files, "This is a Yiwen written by Mr. Li Han himself to the Ministry of Industry. Before he could submit it, he hanged himself."

Di Renjie nodded, took the Yiwen, and carefully compared it with the suicide note.

After a long time, he raised his head and said, "Well, the handwriting of this death letter is exactly the same as that on the Yiwen. It seems that this letter is not fake."

Zeng Tai said: "This is strange. Since Li Han committed suicide without knowing that the Hangou ship capsized, how could he leave such a suicide note?"

Di Renjie picked up the letter in his hand and turned it over, carefully checked it several times, but still found no flaws.

He said softly: "This matter is indeed a bit strange..."

He thought quietly, and slowly walked up.

Zeng Taichong Feng Keyan pouted, and the two of them backed out gently, leading them to the hall door.
