Jing Rong said these words.
Mo Ruo inexplicably felt that these words were actually hit on him on purpose.
So Huo Ran stood up, blowing his beard and staring at him, "But the wise prince, who is wise like the crown prince, has never seen him live a hundred years!"
Jing Rong's mouth twitched!
Demo, fight with me.
Mo Ruo had already turned around and left.
Throw him a "smart" and "happy" gesture.
Jing Rong shook his head, ignoring it, and instead glanced meaningfully at Wei Yi's house.
Finally left.
And the other side!
After Yun Tongyang left the market, he hurried back to the Longyang Escort Bureau!
The entire Longyang Escort Bureau is of extraordinary style. Once inside, there are weapons on both sides of the entire yard. The people inside are all tall and burly, and at first glance, they are not easy to provoke.
But as soon as Yun Tongyang came back, everyone in the security bureau did not dare to speak, and greeted him respectfully.
"Chief escort, what happened to the cargo this time is really unexpected." Yang Yu, the first-class escort in the escort bureau, quickly reported.
Yun Tongyang had a dark face and did not respond to his words. He stepped into the hall, lifted his robes and sat down in the front seat.
The seats on both sides are all the heads of the guards!
The tribute delivered by the Longyang Escort this time has an accident on the road. If it is investigated, not only the entire Longyang Escort will suffer, but if it spreads out, the reputation will be lost.
Everyone knows that Yun Tongyang is polite in front of outsiders, but when he closes the door of the security guard, in private, he is an extremely ruthless and ruthless person.
Everyone sat tremblingly and looked at each other for a long time, before the second head of the guard said, "Chief guard, this incident really has nothing to do with our guard, no one knew that it would rain so much halfway, the road was muddy, and it was night again. , plus it was an urgent tribute, so I didn’t have to travel all night in the rain, and no one knew that the large boxes were filled with flour.”
Carefully finish these words!
The second master was sweating on his forehead.
Then, someone else answered, "Even if we have the responsibility this time, Liu Daren will also take the responsibility. In previous years, when the tribute was delivered to Beijing, Liu Daren would explain what was inside, but this time he didn't say anything, just said it was Some ordinary items are urgently needed in the palace, how do you know that there will be flour in them, if we had known earlier, we would have made other preparations."
Liu Daren, an official in charge of tribute offerings in Yuzhou.
Generally, he will give full authority to the Longyang Escort Bureau for the tribute delivered to the Yuzhou Post Station to continue to deliver. Usually, he will tell what the tribute is, but this time he did not explain it, but out of trust, and the list is tightened, so Longyang The Yang Escort Bureau didn't ask too much, just took the order and hurriedly transported it to Beijing.
How could I know that it turned out to be flour inside. On the way, it rained heavily, and it was night. Even if the boxes were covered with rain cloths, the rain returned and the flour in the boxes was all kneaded into a ball.
At this moment, Yun Tongyang just came back from dealing with this matter. Fortunately, the flour was delivered from Liangcheng. It was still too late to spend some money to buy some from Liangcheng, and then speed it up to the capital.
It's just that as soon as this matter breaks out, the official bureau of the imperial court is afraid that it will not be able to keep it!
Yun Tongyang's dark face is also understandable.
His face became more and more serious, his face was stern, and there seemed to be flames around his body.
After a while, he squeezed his fist and slammed it on the handle of the pear chair.
Muffled sound!
It was so frightening that everyone was afraid to speak out.
Every body trembled.
"I said at the beginning, whether it is tribute or personal goods, you must ask what is being transported. What is Liu Daren? My Longyang Escort Bureau even asked me what the goods were being transported, and I believed him? That is Tribute, once you make a mistake, you will die. All of you here are also the older generation in the escort bureau. The young people below can be forgiven for making mistakes, but you have made such mistakes. When will my Longyang escort bureau become this way? planted?"
Strong tone!
Although there was no shouting, it was the tone that was similar to that of a heavy heart, which made people panic even more.
No one around dared to speak.
They lowered their heads, not even daring to meet their eyes.
Yun Tongyang restrained the anger in his heart and continued: "You all listen carefully, my Longyang Guard Bureau is the official bureau of Yuzhou City. Even if one person is pulled out to take the blame, this brand must be kept, Liu Daren's side. , I will deal with it. The flour from Liangcheng has also been re-delivered to Beijing, and the Chaotang side can be stabilized for the time being, but if the wind is leaked from Liangcheng, the Ministry of Rites will finally find out. If it is investigated, someone will always take the blame. ."
Just listen!
Everyone shrank back.
For fear of being pulled out to commit a crime, it is a tribute after all!
Yun Tongyang took everyone's expressions into his eyes and made a deep voice.
"You all go out."
No one hesitated and went out.
After all, it's like sitting on pins and needles!
After a while, Uncle Liang, the housekeeper of the escort bureau, came in and leaned over beside him.
Yun Tongyang stared at the door, and those eyes suddenly turned gloomy.
He explained to Uncle Liang, "If the Ministry of Rites finds out, and pushes the second master out, that guy should be dead long ago."
"clear."
"What happened when I left Yuzhou City?"
"Another person died."
"Who?"
"Chang Shiliang, the day after you left the city to handle the tribute, people died."
Uncle Liang replied one by one.
Yun Tongyang's expression didn't change much, but his strong hands were secretly clenched into fists, and blue veins burst out on the back of his hands.
He got up and said, "Don't follow me, I'll go out."
"Okay."
Half an hour after Yun Tongyang left the Longyang Escort, he appeared at Li Mingzhou's house.
After being released from the yamen last night, Li Mingzhou, who originally planned to leave this morning, still did not leave.
When he saw Yun Tongyang appear, he was surprised.
Immediately dismissed the servants and took Yun Tongyang to the backyard.
"How did you come?"
"Three people have died, can I not come?"
"What do you want to say?" Li Mingzhou was obviously wary of him.
Yun Tongyang looked solemn and said, "Fifth brother, does this matter have anything to do with you?"
Call him fifth brother
In fact, Li Mingzhou has not heard this name for a long time.
He sneered, glanced around, then dragged him into a room and closed the door.
At this moment, on the roof of the backyard of the Li Mansion, the two figures waited quietly for a while before dodging away.
Yamen!
The two figures flashed all the way from the roof of Li Mansion to the roof of the yamen, and finally landed firmly beside Jing Rong.
"Have you found out anything?" Jing Rong sat in the yard.
"Back to the lord, neither the Chang residence nor the Li residence have found any inkstones with Elephas japonica added to the ink."
"Have you checked everything out?"
"Check it out."
"Then back off."
The two did not retreat.
Jing Rong looked at the two of them, "Speak."
The two looked at each other and then replied, "My lord, we saw Yun Tongyang from the Longyang Escort Bureau in Li Mingzhou's mansion."
What
The teacup in Jing Rong's hand shook and put it down heavily.
"Are you sure you read it right?"
"No, and he also called Li Mingzhou his fifth brother."
Uh!
That is to say, seven brothers, five appeared
