Chapter 19: Capable People
Gonggong Yan agreed here, and Hong Xinyuan didn't delay for a moment, went straight out of Gonggong Yan's mansion, and led his entourage back to his house.
When he got home, the sun was already high in the sky, and the plaque of the weaving department was shining brightly in the daylight, he raised his hand to cover his eyes, dismounted, threw the horse to the porter, and went all the way into the study.
When the doorman heard the news, they were already waiting in the study, and when they saw him, they all stood up and saluted.
He didn't have the strength to come with them again, so he waved his hand to excuse them, and sat in the circle chair for a while before he opened his eyes, and looked at the seven or eight doormen sitting in front of him angrily: "I have already gone to Gonggong Yan's mansion for help, and Gonggong Yan really doesn't seem to know about it, and he simply agreed to write a letter to Mao Yanlong, the prefect of Yingtianfu." ”
In other words, it can be ruled out that it was the factor that Yan Gonggong's political enemies framed.
He propped his hands on the table, his eyes were full of anger, and he said half-loudly: "Who is going to break ground on the head of this official?!" ”
He has always been very good in Yangzhou, because he can be a man and has a tough backstage, over the years, he has cooperated with the local government and got along very well.
Not to mention the prefect, the governor and others have also benefited a lot from him.
After so long, he had long forgotten what it was like to be calculated, and now he was suddenly calculated, which made him feel angry and unspeakably panicked.
The doormen below saw that he was irritable and anxious, and they all shouted for him to calm down.
One of them said tentatively: "It stands to reason that there are enough people around the girl to avoid such a situation." Even if there is a robbery, it has eyes, and it usually does not embarrass the family of officials, which looks like it is done on purpose, and it is aimed at you behind the girl. ”
Everyone agreed.
Hong Xinyuan's face was even worse: "But this official has been in Yangzhou for so many years, if there is anything unscrupulous, that is, Yan Gonggong is one, and the others are ......"
Everyone is a grasshopper on the same rope, he doesn't know what good those people have in calculating him, and he can't imagine who is calculating him so much.
The people below were silent for a moment.
Then someone suddenly said: "Lord Xu sent a letter at that time, didn't he say that the situation in the capital had changed?" Could it be that the people in the capital wanted to deal with Xu Gong, but they couldn't enter the door, so they did it to the girl? ”
Immediately, someone shook his head: "The wind in the capital is tight, I heard that Jinyiwei is arresting people everywhere, and he will raid his house at every turn, and he can't even let go of those people in prison, the situation is so tight, there should be no one to commit a crime against the wind, and he should not commit a crime on Xu Gong's head." ”
Hong Xinyuan himself nodded: "The date to go to the capital was only set recently, and I had been hesitant and undecided. Even if the capital really wants to start from our side, there is no information on both sides, and there is no chance. Now it seems that it is more like there is someone around you who knows the inside story..... Otherwise, what are so many dart masters and guards doing to eat, how can people still have an accident under their noses? ”
The doormen all looked at each other's faces before someone answered: "My lord, what are the dart masters saying now?" When the steward came back, didn't he say that the dart masters were badly injured? Since they are fighting each other, there will always be some clues, right? ”
Hong Xinyuan's eyebrows were full of irritability: "The information he brought back is not complete, except for saying that those people said something from Shanxi, I don't know anything else." ”
"Shanxi?!" A doorman widened his eyes thoughtfully, and said slowly: "The dart masters we invited this time are not from the famous dart game in Shanxi?" ”
Everyone looked at him, and then at Hong Xinyuan, with a look of surprise.
Yes, these dart masters are all from Jindi.
Ping'an Dart Bureau is a well-known dart master of the Shanxi Gang, that is, because their reputation is big enough, so even if they first came to Yangzhou to open a bureau, Hong Xinyuan did not hesitate to order them to escort their daughter to Beijing.
Hong Xinyuan was also stunned.
Is it really related to these dart masters?
The staff member who had just finished speaking frowned again: "Logically speaking, we shouldn't doubt our own people, but since the steward said that the thieves and bandits all speak Shanxi dialect, then we have to think more." As the adults said, our defense is tight, and not many people know the date of departure, and there are many accidents on the road that can cause the journey to be delayed or smooth, why can the gang of bandits find the girl's place of residence accurately, and even hold the girl hostage? Is it true that someone leaked secrets internally and gave those people an opportunity to take advantage of it? ”
Now everyone unanimously fixed their eyes on him.
Although it was spring, Hong Xinyuan couldn't help but sweat, what the staff said made sense, this was really too coincidental, the escort was the dart master of the Shanxi Gang's dart bureau, and when the accident happened, the bandits also spoke with this accent.
Where in the world are there so many coincidences?
Could it really be that the dart masters did the job of shouting to catch thieves?
Seeing that Hong Xinyuan didn't speak, the staff owed again: "My lord, it's useless for us to talk more here now, it's better to wait for the return dart master to arrive, and then interrogate and interrogate,"
Hong Xinyuan squinted his eyes, his eyes were full of anger that couldn't be hidden: "These bitches raised them!" If they really eat inside and out, eat Lao Tzu and use Lao Tzu, and come to ruin my daughter's reputation, I will kill them! ”
The crowd persuaded him.
Hong Xinyuan ignored them and named the staff member of Fang Cai: "Cheng Qi, tell me, those dart masters really did this, what are they trying to do?" ”
Cheng Qi is about twenty-three or four, he has not been much in the house before, he is young, he was originally a famous local talent, but he is famous for broadcasting, but his career is not smooth, he has been repeatedly unsuccessful, he took the exam on the one hand, and on the other hand, he also cast a weaving door, and became a staff member under Hong Xinyuan.
At this moment, when he heard this, he moved his eyelids without being shocked: "According to the villain, they rob people, either for money or fame, if it is really what they do, no matter which of these two is it, they always have something to ask for, and if they ask for something, they will definitely show clues, let's wait and see what happens." ”
In the name of money?
Hong Xinyuan glanced at him with some incomprehension.
Cheng Qi didn't sell it, and looked at him slowly: "My lord, although the Ping'an Dart Bureau is famous in Shanxi, but in our Yangzhou, it is only a newcomer..... What if they could get back the girl we lost? ”
