Chapter 1036: Mr. Ji is missing
The teacher's residence did not find any suspicion, and Wen Qingzhu could only close the door and leave.
At night, Fu Lie came back and asked her to invite Ji Shang over tomorrow.
"Today the teacher borrowed my carriage, and he didn't say where to go." Wen Qingzhu was actually a little worried, it was so late, and the secret guard guarding the teacher's side didn't have any news at all.
Fu Lie paused: "The teacher borrowed your carriage?" Didn't I arrange someone for him before? ”
Walking up to him, Wen Qingzhu unbuttoned Fu Lie's coat: "I don't know about this, I just feel that the teacher is very anxious, and I don't say much on the side." ”
"It's okay, I also sent someone to follow him, if something happens, there will be news back." Fu Lie took her hand and went to the desk.
There were several documents neatly placed on the table, and Wen Qingzhu checked them one by one.
Fu Lie, who was standing beside her, explained: "The first is the situation on the Shazhou side, the second is some things that happened on the Youzhou side, Shouwang and Xianbei, and the last one is outside Ganzhou, and the Rouran people did not come to attack the border this year." ”
Hearing Rouran's news, Wen Qingzhu raised his head incredulously: "No attack means that they didn't appear outside the gate?" ”
"To be precise, but there will still be occasional Rouran people coming over, according to King Ningjun's report, it should be just a spy."
"Is it just a spy?" Wen Qingzhu picked up the information from Ganzhou again.
Half of these materials were provided by Jiang Yuanan, and half were investigated by the teacher himself.
Cross-validation on both sides is the most reliable information.
Wen Qingzhu fell into deep thought, it was impossible for the Rouran people to have food to survive this winter.
They didn't come to harass the border, one could be that they had food, and the other might be that they were planning a bigger offensive.
Last time, Rouran had been hit hard by Fu Lie, and the latter one may be minimal.
There is only one possibility left in front of it, and Rouran has food.
But where did their food come from?
At this time, Fu Lie took out the map and drew a line from the Xiongnu to Rouran.
"Look at this, the Korza tribe of the only tower, beyond the White Wolf Mountain, is easy to enter the territory of Rouran, and according to the news sent by Cui Li, this year, the food reserves of the Xiongnu are quite sufficient."
Looking at this line, Wen Qingzhu suddenly remembered something before: "You intercepted King Zuo Xian before, do you only have weapons?" ”
Fu Lie shook his head: "It's not just weapons, it's everything, the last time I left from the Shen family, I asked Shen Sanye for the circulation of bulk grain in the south of the Yangtze River, and fifty percent went to the northwest." ”
"Fifty percent to the northwest!" Wen Qingzhu has been integrating the business in the northwest recently, so if there is anything abnormal, she will definitely know.
"That's right!" Fu Lie pointed to Shazhou again, "The teacher said before, isn't the economic situation in Shazhou much better than before?" Since Shazhou can connect to the Western Regions, it is even easier to connect the inland, and there is this line. ”
He connected the road to the Western Regions with the Asang tribe in the west of the Xiongnu steppe: "The grain flowed over, but instead of going from Yunzhou and Dingyuan, we made a detour to Shazhou, and then entered the Xiongnu from the Asang tribe, so we don't know at all." ”
"If you don't go to Yunzhou and Dingyuan, it can only be Texas and Linzhou! After Liu Guang died, Texas was taken over by us, and we didn't find that there was such a large amount of grain circulation in Texas? ”
Fu Lie pondered for a while, and only said at the junction of Linzhou and Dezhou: "Then it must be this road, under normal circumstances, this road is under the control of Dezhou, but the center of gravity of Dezhou is on the catacombs in Yunzhou where the temple has accumulated wealth, and it is very likely that it cannot be controlled." ”
"Isn't that Linzhou's side helping to cover the past?"
Wen Qingzhu looked up at Fu Lie, only to see him say with a solemn expression: "If I'm not mistaken, you said during the day that the box of books you gave to the teacher was given to you by Baidong in Linzhou. ”
"Yes!" Wen Qingzhu instantly became nervous.
Fu Lie put on his coat and ordered, "You wait here, I'll go find the teacher!" If an accident really happens, first make sure that Yunzhou is not infiltrated! ”
"Good!"
This night, Wen Qingzhu has been sitting in the lobby waiting for news.
It wasn't until the sky was bright that someone came in outside, and the person who came was still Lu Chuan.
"Qingzhu! Didn't you hear from here? Mr. Ji is missing! Brother Fu chased him into the mountains, and now there is further news coming back. ”
Wen Qingzhu woke up suddenly, and hurriedly greeted him: "What did you say?" The teacher is missing! Fu Lie has no further news coming back? ”
"Hmmm! You go to Yunzhou with me first! There's a landslide over there! There is a commotion among the workers! Shen Yu was injured! Lu Chuan pulled her and ran out.
About an hour and a half, they finally arrived in Yunzhou.
At the gate of the North City, the Lu Jiajun who remained had already controlled the scene, but all the workers stopped.
As soon as Wen Qingzhu appeared, Tang Qin saw her and hurriedly walked up.
"Your Excellency, you're finally here! Didn't you see the letter I sent yesterday? ”
As soon as these words came out, Wen Qingzhu and Lu Chuan glanced at each other, Tang Qin sent the letter yesterday?
Quickly arrived at the scene of the collapse, Wen Qingzhu quickly smelled a trace of something wrong.
She walked to the edge of the cavern and reached out to feel the dull yellow powder on the clod.
"Isn't this saltpeter?"
Lu Chuan understood this very well, and instantly understood: "It's explosives!" It's not a natural landslide! ”
But Tang Qin came over and explained: "This explosive is something I let people use, it is not the original one, there are several workers buried below, we have rescued everyone, except for the one who died, the rest are still alive." ”
"What about the living?" Wen Qingzhu turned around, she needed to ask Haosheng.
Tang Qin naturally knew what she wanted to ask, and hurriedly asked someone to take a few confessions: "My lord, look at this, I carefully interrogated them early this morning, and I didn't let go of anything." ”
After reading these confessions quickly, Wen Qingzhu quickly noticed two suspicious points.
One was the one who died, who had just come temporarily to take the place of his uncle's class.
The second is that the drawings they excavated were temporarily replaced, so this caused the landslide.
After Wen Qingzhu finished reading it, Tang Qin immediately explained: "My lord, the identity of this dead man, I already have eyebrows on my side, it is from Texas, I have already sent a letter to Lord Wen and asked him to help investigate."
As for the second drawing that was replaced, it has been investigated that the architect is from the Texas White family. Because the Bai family is Lord Bai's Yue family, I just sent someone over to inquire. ”
"Wait!" Wen Qingzhu turned his head to look at him, "You said that the Bai family is the Yue family of the White Cave?" Isn't his surname Bai? ”
Tang Qin was stunned: "Don't you know?" Bai Dong was not originally surnamed Bai, he joined the Bai family, and later changed his surname to Bai. ”
The information in his mind suddenly gathered together, and Wen Qingzhu quickly gathered these seemingly unrelated information into a line.
Baidong sent books, the Bai family craftsmen, and Bai Liufang had a bad relationship with Baidong.
"Tang Qin! Block Yunzhou immediately! All projects are temporarily stopped, pay attention to verify the identity of everyone, and if you do not cooperate, you will be killed! ”
After ordering this, Wen Qingzhu shouted to Lu Chuan and continued to rush to Texas.
The problem is with the Bai family!
There must be something in the Bai family that she ignored.
The most important thing is that Bai Dong is not from the Bai family, but has entered it.
After Bai Liufang's disappearance, Bai Liufang's mother died.
This news was told to her by Bai Dong on his own initiative, and it sounded fine.
But now that I look at it, it's a big problem.
It was almost evening, and Wen Qingzhu arrived in Texas.
As she expected, Texas has also been put into lockdown.
When she got to the door, she took out the token to enter and exit, and the people who didn't want to guard the gate didn't get out of the way at once, but pushed back and talked about another thing.
"Aren't you going to find Mr. Ji?"
Wen Qingzhu instantly squinted: "How do you know about Mr. Ji?" And you know me? ”
The guards at the city gate had their eyes flashing slightly, and hurriedly explained: "Mr. Ji has been here before, and later General Fu also brought people over, and the whole of Texas knows about Mr. Ji's disappearance!" ”
"Get out of the way!" Lu Chuan was not as patient as Wen Qingzhu, so he directly drew his knife and pointed at the guards at the city gate.
I didn't want him to move, but the guards on the side recognized Lu Chuan's sword and hurriedly knelt down: "See General Lu Xiao!" ”
The guard who spoke at the beginning did not move, and he seemed to know Wen Qingzhu, but he didn't know Lu Chuan, who was more famous.
This point was enough to make people suspicious, and Lu Chuan immediately said, "Who are you?" ”
I didn't want the guard in front of me to smile coldly: "I didn't expect it to be you Lu Chuan who saw my mistake!" Pity! You'll never know! ”
When he was about to commit suicide by taking poison, his body suddenly weakened and he fell to the ground.
Wen Qingzhu turned over and dismounted, walked in front of him, looked at the guard's frightened and surprised eyes, and said with a slight smile: "You know who I am, why are you so careless?" At the very least, I should have taken the poison as soon as I stopped, otherwise you really wouldn't have killed yourself. ”
She looked up at the city, and there was not a single citizen in the long streets.
Lu Chuan followed and immediately took over the place.
Carrying this spy, Wen Qingzhu and the others quickly arrived at the yamen.
The door was closed, and the surroundings were quiet.
Lu Chuan went over and knocked on the door and shouted, "I'm Lu Chuan!" ”
There seemed to be a little movement inside, and soon the door opened, and as soon as Yan Yongzhang saw them, tears rushed out.
"My lord! Fast! Lord Wen is poisoned! ”
When Wen Qingzhu heard this, he hurriedly followed Yan Yongzhang in.
When she arrived in the bedroom, she found that Wen Mingliang was still awake and was drinking medicine in bed.
Seeing her coming, he hurriedly put down the medicine bowl: "Seventh sister! ”
Wen Qingzhu walked up to him, stopped him, and checked his body first.
After finishing, he asked: "This poison is very domineering, what did you use to temporarily suppress the poison?" ”
"It was Miss Xue who gave me the antidote pill, she said that this was specially made by their Medicine God Valley, and it was no problem to save her life under normal circumstances."
Wen Mingliang thought of Xue Miaomiao, and his mood was very relaxed.
After making sure that he didn't have a big problem, Wen Qingzhu asked, "What happened here in Texas?" Why have all the guards at the city gate been replaced? ”
Speaking of this, Wen Mingliang lowered his head and said: "It's because I didn't deal with these things well, the problem of Texas is far from the previous temples and sects, but the clans, they are the biggest problem in Texas!" ”
"Clan?" Wen Qingzhu didn't hear much about this word, but it was also a lot.
But more often than not, some huge families are on the Jiangnan side, and the northwest side is more advocating force.
Wen Mingliang nodded: "To be precise, the bigger clan is on the side of Linzhou, and the forces in Dezhou were mixed before, there was the immortal Taoist temple who collected money, there were hidden spies of the Huns, and even Jiang Yuancheng's property left here, and the clan power was the least obvious, because they themselves have always been here." ”
"First of all, the Immortal Taoist Temple has been completely eliminated, and the Baiyun Temple has a problem, but it also knows how to converge. Because of the seventh sister's repeated investigation of the Hun spies, they have transferred their stronghold, and it seems that they should be in the mountains. ”
