When Zheng Jinhong hurriedly walked into the wing, Zheng Xunrui was discussing business and trade matters with Xu Wanghua, which was Zheng Xunrui's biggest headache and the biggest controversy between him and the Donglin Party.

"Young Master, the investigation has results."

Zheng Jinhong's words attracted the attention of Zheng Xunrui and Xu Wanghua, they knew what Zheng Jinhong was talking about, that is, things involving Zhao Danyu and Liang Xingli, as the chief officer of the Zheng family's army, Zheng Jinhong did not need to investigate in person, but in order to be able to keep it confidential, Zheng Jinhong personally presided over the investigation, and used the most elite sergeants of the Zheng family army to participate in the investigation.

"Jinhong, don't be in a hurry, speak slowly."

Zheng Jinhong picked up the teacup on the table, took a big sip, and spoke again.

"Su Jiancheng is very cautious, which makes the investigation very difficult, Lord Zhao and Lord Liang are suspicious, and Deng Zihua has never invited and contacted again, probably because he is afraid that King Qin will be caught in this matter, so the investigation is almost interrupted, and his subordinates sent sergeants to keep an eye on Su Jiancheng's actions, and a month later, Su Jiancheng took action."

Zheng Xunrui frowned slightly, he also knew that it was difficult for Zhao Danyu and Liang Xingli to achieve great things, and he didn't have any hope at the beginning, it is estimated that after the two of them knew what happened, they would definitely not dare to risk themselves, this is the instinct of the two, Zheng Xunrui could not be reluctant, and even Xu Wanghua, who came up with this strategy, was helpless.

Su Jiancheng can't be the mastermind, it's just the long history of the palace, he has no power, he can't contact any powerful people, including the Donglin Party, and he has no grievances with Zheng Xunrui, so it is impossible to be so calculated, so it doesn't make the slightest sense to find out Su Jiancheng, just when Zheng Xunrui thought there was no hope, Zheng Jinhong actually investigated the intelligence.

This greatly surprised Zheng Xunrui's expectations.

"The subordinates were also strange at the beginning, after investigating for a long time, why Su Jiancheng did not contact anyone, just went out to eat every day, and returned to the official residence after eating, was it Deng Zihua who transferred the target before throwing Su Jiancheng, so the subordinates also strengthened the surveillance of the Qin Palace."

"There is nothing abnormal in the Qin Palace, which makes the subordinates focus on Su Jiancheng again, and then the subordinates finally discovered a secret, that is, every time Su Jiancheng goes out to eat, the place is fixed, and the guy who serves the food is also fixed, and he has never changed others."

"When it comes to a place to eat, maybe it's a personal preference, but it's the same guy every time, which makes people suspicious, so the subordinates set their eyes on this guy, and sure enough, they found an anomaly."

Zheng Xunrui's face showed a smile, he was happy for Zheng Jinhong's progress, he was able to find the unusual from the subtleties, this kind of kung fu to peel off the cocoon, is exactly what Zheng Jinhong needs.

"The guy in the restaurant, life should be very simple, but this guy is not simple, he doesn't do things in the restaurant on weekdays, only when Su Jiancheng goes to eat, this guy goes to the restaurant to do things, and after Su Jiancheng leaves, this guy also leaves the restaurant."

"The sergeant began to follow this guy and found that this guy actually lived in the south of the city, which made his subordinates even more suspicious, the people living in the south of the city are all scholars or gentry and wealthy families, and the people who live here, where do they need to go to the restaurant to be a buddy, and the subordinates think that there must be a problem here."

"The specific address where the guy lives, has been investigated, it is the house of a big businessman, this businessman only moved to Xi'an Mansion at the beginning of the year, and bought the mansion here with a lot of money, this businessman is very mysterious, and generally does not show up, but often people from the capital and people from the south enter the mansion."

"The subordinates wanted to send people into the mansion to investigate, but they were afraid of startling the snakes, so they didn't take action."

Zheng Xunrui and Xu Wanghua's faces showed smiles at the same time.

After Zheng Jinhong finished speaking, Xu Wanghua spoke.

"It's really interesting, the adults went to Shaanxi to take up a post, this businessman also came to Xi'an Fucheng, bought a mansion with a lot of money, the businessman said to be going to do business, but he just stayed in the mansion and never showed up, what kind of businessman is this, it is difficult to want to be a public servant, but even if it is a public apartment, how good it is to go to the capital and Nanjing, there is no need to come to Xi'an Fucheng."

Zheng Xunrui nodded slightly.

"What Mr. Xu said makes sense, not to mention whether this businessman is aimed at me, just say that the time when he came to Xi'an Fucheng, as well as his whereabouts every day, are all doubtful, Jinhong, you don't do it for the time being, this is correct, it seems that there must be an article behind this businessman."

Speaking of this, Zheng Xunrui remembered something.

"By the way, Jin Hong, didn't you go to the county office to investigate the origin of this businessman?"

A look of embarrassment appeared on Zheng Jinhong's face.

"The subordinates tried to investigate, but there was no result, the county government only has a name, called Dang Laiwang, what the origin and so on, I don't know anything, even the people in what place, there is no information."

Xu Wanghua sneered and spoke.

"My lord, it seems that the opponent is prepared, just a name, without any effect, the subordinates estimate that the name of the party to Wang is also fake, there are a lot of people who have moved in Xi'an Mansion over the years, it is very easy to cheat in this regard, bribing officials can do it, if you want to investigate thoroughly, you can only work hard from other aspects."

Zheng Jinhong looked at Zheng Xunrui, hesitated, but still spoke.

"Young master, Mr. Xu, my subordinates have detected something, I don't know whether to say it or not, maybe it's just an accident."

Zheng Xunrui looked at Zheng Jinhong with a stern expression, since Zheng Jinhong said so, it means that the intelligence is extraordinary, Zheng Jinhong has not been investigated, and he cannot suspect it without authorization.

"Jin Hong, what has been detected, just say it."

"The sergeant found out that this businessman called Dang Laiwang once went to the prefect's yamen and visited Master Shi."

Zheng Xunrui's body trembled slightly, and Xu Wanghua's face changed even more.

Shi Kefa is the prefect of Xi'an Prefecture and has won the trust of Zheng Xunrui, if he is also involved in this matter, it is really hard to say, Zheng Jinhong may also have thought of the benefits and disadvantages here, so he didn't say it at first.

Zheng Xunrui walked a few steps in the room and slowly spoke.

"If I remember correctly, Shi Kefa is a student of Zuo Guangdou, Zuo was once a cabinet minister, one of the main members of the Donglin Party, although the main force of the Donglin Party is in the area of Nanzhili, but its influence is all over the country."

Xu Wanghua nodded and spoke.

"The subordinates also know this, Lord Zuo was persecuted to death by Wei Zhongxian, and he was Shi Kefa's mentor back then, my lord said this, my subordinates felt that the party came to visit Shi Kefa in the prefect's yamen, and it is very likely that it has a certain relationship with the Donglin Party."

Zheng Xunrui walked a few steps slowly, as if talking to himself.

"The Donglin Party, hum, good and evil, the same party and the same disagreement, long in internal strife and short in governing the country and the army, have no scruples in the court, blindly suppress those who do not agree with them, collude with the big businessmen in the south, abolish trade taxes, increase the burden of the people, so that the people in the north have no way to live, resulting in the rampant raids, the north suffers such a catastrophe, these Donglin party people do not care, but safeguard the interests of the southern businessmen, those southern businessmen spend all day and wine, and do not think of taking out a penny of silver and a grain of grain relief, the court wants to increase trade taxes, they desperately objected, saying that the wealth is hidden from the people, and the court cannot compete with the people for profit, it is such a group of hypocrites, who still flaunt what is clear, thinking that everyone in the world is blind. ”

Zheng Jinhong and Xu Wanghua looked at Zheng Xunrui and didn't speak, but Zheng Xunrui's words, like a heavy hammer, knocked on their hearts, so that they finally understood why Zheng Xunrui was not optimistic about the Donglin Party, why he cut his robe and broke off with Zhang Pu, Yang Yi and others, it seems that this is not because of the simple reason of women.

"Mr. Xu, I'm going to have a good talk with Shi Kefa, after such a long period of contact, I feel that Shi Kefa is not the kind of Donglin Party people who don't know things, although the Donglin Party has strong barriers and has a strong view of the door, but there are still outstanding people among them, these people I must unite and let them break away from the Donglin Party, otherwise when he tears his face with the Donglin Party, I will encounter great pressure."

Xu Wanghua's expression was solemn, and he spoke for a while.

"The words of the adult, so that the subordinates have a great shock, the subordinates used to understand the Donglin Party people is also good, never thought about other things, the adult just summarized, so that the subordinates suddenly thought of a lot of things, the summary of the adults, is indeed into the bones, the Donglin Party people misunderstand the country and the people, subordinates and Shi Daren have also been in contact many times, I feel that Shi Daren is still honest and credible, the subordinates agree with the adults and Shi Daren to have a good talk, if Shi Daren blindly insists, subordinates think, adults do not have to be soft, My subordinates remember that the Lord said that being merciful to the enemy is cruelty to oneself. ”

Zheng Xunrui smiled and spoke to Zheng Jinhong.

"Jin Hong, closely monitor the whereabouts of that party Laiwang, no matter who goes to visit, you have to figure it out, don't touch him for the time being, I will find a way to make Su Jiancheng disappear for a while, at this time you can do it, as for talking to Shi Kefa, don't be in a hurry for the time being, there must be clear evidence, after considering this matter, Shi Kefa is upright, but he is also pedantic, admit death, and don't come up with convincing evidence, such a conversation will not have a good result."

After Zheng Xunrui finished speaking, Xu Wanghua spoke.

"My lord, this matter, leave it to your subordinates to handle, General Zheng has too many things, he cares about all the affairs of the Zheng family, it is difficult to withdraw, his subordinates don't show up much, and it is more convenient to investigate in secret."

Zheng Xunrui nodded.

"It's okay, this matter is hard for Mr. Xu, Jin Hong has time to assist, at this time, every step needs to be cautious, and there can be no mistakes."
