The inn was in a panic, but under the threat of swords, the businessman who cherished his life cooperated very well.
Qian Yong's people were mixed in here, and the originally bustling inn was now quiet.
After Qian Yong's people were arrested one after another, someone came over to report.
Wen Qingzhu counted the number of people in front of him. Why were there only more than twenty people
Looking around this inn again, it is the largest inn in Jinzhou. Needless to say, the abilities of her people are good.
For such an important competition, the money collected from merchants every year starts from 30,000 taels of silver.
After more than ten years, it is absolutely impossible not to have 500,000 taels of silver.
Even if such a sum of money is spent from the national treasury, arrangements need to be made for transfer.
In recent years, the national treasury has become increasingly empty, and Jinzhou alone has been exploited for hundreds of thousands of taels of silver.
"Madam! Mr. Li still refuses to tell the truth!"
Wen Qingzhu thought for a moment and then directly ordered: "Then use your method."
"yes."
Standing next to him, Jing Yinuo could tell that the person who controlled the entire inn was not from the Fu Jiajun.
They come and go more and more without a trace, and their mobility is stronger.
Wen Qingzhu felt that something was still wrong and recalled the map of the underground city in his mind.
There is no entrance to the inn. How did Qian Yong and the others retreat so quickly
Suddenly, she suddenly understood!
Those maps are old maps from 20 to 30 years ago. With such a natural underground passage, it is not difficult to open the connection here at the inn.
"Misstep!" Wen Qingzhu regretted a little. She had to go and help Hu Sen.
At present, she cannot determine how much weight Qian Yong has in the eyes of the Wu clan people.
"Yuanhan!"
"Sister, I'm here!" Jiang Yuanhan stood up immediately.
Wen Qingzhu took out a token and handed it to him: "This is what General Wei gave me. I now leave all the matters here to you."
"Don't worry, sister, I will definitely handle it." Jiang Yuanhan knew that Wen Qingzhu would let go sooner or later.
This time he was responsible alone, and he had to give his sister a satisfactory answer.
Wen Qingzhu gave him an encouraging look, then turned to tell Jing Yinuo: "Mr. Jing, most of the people here at the inn are businessmen. If you need any help, please take care of Yuan Han."
"Madam, don't worry, Jing will do his best." Jing Yinuo expressed his willingness by handing over his hand.
Wen Qingzhu took Xi'er and Lu Tao to the backyard.
Since you can't find anyone, just capture the innkeeper and ask for the inn map.
After Wen Qingzhu left, Jiang Yuanhan found the leader of the Wei family's secret guards and said calmly to him: "If anyone refuses to cooperate, just kill him."
The leader has experienced various things with Wei Feng and knows that the remaining people in the inn are all abandoned ones and will most likely be of no use.
It's just that Wen Qingzhu wanted to use softer methods to deal with it, so he couldn't say much.
But now that Jiang Yuanhan gave the order, he naturally responded without hesitation.
But before he left, Jing Yinuo asked first: "Your Highness, do you need to kill him directly? Don't you need to send him to the government for interrogation?"
Jiang Yuanhan always acted well-behaved and sensible in front of Wen Qingzhu, but this matter was the first thing his sister told him.
Now the inn is not the focus, the Teng family residence is.
He had to make a quick decision and then go to the Teng family house to help his sister.
Hearing Jing Yinuo's question, Jiang Yuanhan turned around, put his hands behind his back, and for the first time showed a profound and indifferent look: "Mr. Jing, you just need to watch."
Jing Yinuo looked at Jiang Yuanhan at this moment, feeling slightly cold in his heart.
Jiang Yuanhan now is completely different from the one before!
What he said did not take human life into consideration at all.
Two-quarters of an hour later, the leader came back and reported: "Your Highness, they confessed that Qian Yong has been delivering supplies to Cangzhou, and he is also in contact with bandits around Cangzhou. This is their contact information and a partial delivery list."
"Very good, you leave some people behind and interrogate the merchants in this inn one by one. If you find any related to Qianjia Trading Company, seize them all!"
"yes!"
The leader went down to make arrangements. Jiang Yuanhan turned to Jing Yinuo and said, "Master Jing, do you want to go to Teng's house with me?"
Jing Yinuo wanted to go, but what Jiang Yuanhan said just now made him very uneasy.
"Your Highness, just go and help Madam. I'm quite familiar with the businessmen here, so I'd better stay here to help." Jing Yinuo cupped his hands and lowered his head in reply.
Jiang Yuanhan agreed and left the inn with the rest of the people.
The Teng family at this moment.
Qian Yong was seriously injured, covering his wound and looking around cautiously.
Hu Sen was also slightly injured, but he still looked back at Mrs. Teng who was lying on the ground: "Good aunt, you have seen that Qian Yong only wanted to escape by himself from beginning to end, and never thought of saving you. , not to mention your dying father!"
Mrs. Teng stared blankly ahead, her eyes losing focus.
Even though her face was scratched with blood and her appearance was disfigured, she still didn't pay attention and just muttered something to herself.
Seeing that she was completely crazy, Hu Sen simply threw the defrauded vault key to Mrs. Teng.
Mrs. Teng was stunned, looked down, and then raised her head.
"Do you think I can stop me with a key? I just want you to see clearly who Qian Yong is. He will trade the key for his own life, but he will never trade for your life!"
At this moment, an eagle suddenly flew over the sky.
A sharp cry passed by, and Qian Yong, who had always had a serious face, finally relaxed.
But then, a cloud-piercing arrow hit the falcon.
"Chirp-"
The shrill cry of an eagle came immediately, and the eagle fell in the sky.
Qian Yong's eyes instantly turned red and he turned to look.
At the gate of the courtyard, Wen Qingzhu was handing the bow in his hand to Xi'er.
She looked up and met Qian Yong's scarlet eyes.
Smiling slightly, she said silently: Sorry, I want to eat eagle meat tonight.
After leading people to the yard, Qian Yong originally had a chance, but now he has no chance at all.
Wen Qingzhu glanced at the three promoted guards beside Qian Yong and persuaded him: "You guys should give up, Boss Qian can't pay you now."
Qian Yong stared at her: "Madam is so powerful! Sure enough, she has united with the head of the Teng family a long time ago! She can even convince Hu Sen and the Sheng family of their grudges, Qian admires her!"
Wen Qingzhu smiled modestly: "Boss Qian is also very powerful. He is obviously just a businessman, but his conspiracy is the foundation of the Qi Dynasty. Such methods really shock and admire me, and I am in awe! I don't understand why a talent like Boss Qian, Are you willing to be inferior to others?"
Qian Yong sneered: "Madam, there is no need to spy. Don't explain Qian's actions to anyone!"
The sound of "papapapa" applause sounded. Wen Qingzhu's smile faded and he raised his hand to wave.
The people she brought were about to take action, but Xi'er shouted: "Protect Madam!"
Everyone immediately surrounded Wen Qingzhu and shot an arrow towards Wen Qingzhu's face.
Xi'er blocked it with her sword and stuck the arrow on the ground.
There is also a letter attached to the arrow.
Xi'er tried it out and untied the letter. After reading the content, her face changed drastically and she turned to hand it to Wen Qingzhu.
"lady!"
Wen Qingzhu took it and looked at it, his eyebrows immediately raised, and he crumpled the letter in his hand into a ball.
Looking at Qian Yong in front of her, she really didn't want to let him go!
This man is capable, cruel, and a formidable enemy!
But now that the green pottery was in their hands, Wen Qingzhu ordered in a calm voice: "Let them go!"
"Madam!" Hu Sen shouted immediately.
Wen Qingzhu looked at him coldly, and Hu Sen gritted his teeth and could only let people retreat.
Faced with this change, Qian Yong was already determined to die, but now it seems that the adults have not given up on him.
"See you later!" Qian Yong knew that Wen Qingzhu was a formidable opponent.
He bowed his hands politely and quickly evacuated with his people.
As soon as Qian Yong's people left, Wen Qingzhu immediately turned around and left with them.
Hu Sen stopped her: "Madam!"
Wen Qingzhu stopped and looked sideways behind him: "The Teng family and Qianjia Trading Company are yours. Now that the internal troubles in Jinzhou have been eliminated, you can make your own decision."
A quarter of an hour later, Wen Qingzhu arrived at the Fukou Inn with his troops.
At this time, the Ferry Inn was empty.
They sent people in to investigate, and not long after, the spies came back and reported: "Madam, the green pottery girl is inside, and there is no danger around her!"
Wen Qingzhu rushed in immediately, and sure enough he saw Lu Tao hanging in the middle of the inn, with a row of blades pointing toward the sky beneath him.
Seeing this scene, without Wen Qingzhu's orders, the person who brought him immediately stepped forward to remove the knife board and put the green pottery down.
After helping Lu Tao sit down and rest, Wen Qingzhu checked her pulse and found that there was no problem.
After giving Lu Tao a pill, she woke up in a daze.
Seeing that it was Wen Qingzhu, Lu Tao grabbed her hand and said, "Madam! Something happened with the Marquis!"
"I know, you should have a good rest first, and leave the rest to me!" Wen Qingzhu comforted Lu Tao.
Knowing the cunningness of those people, he did not directly target Linlin or Mingxuan, but directly caught Lu Tao.
On the Teng family side.
Hu Sen turned to look at Teng Pei and found that he sat up with the help of Mrs. Teng.
"Asen, this is for you." Tengpei took out a black key from his sleeve.
Mrs. Teng was shocked: "Dad! Isn't this the token of the president of Qianjia Trading Company? Didn't you already give it to... to Ayong?"
Teng Pei coughed twice, glanced at the pool of blood behind Hu Sen, and smiled mockingly: "Qian Yong, this bastard is so ambitious, how could I not see that! My illness is not just caused by his poisoning! Half of it is me pretending! Ahem!"
Mrs. Teng was suddenly stunned.
I saw Teng Pei turning to look at his daughter, his eyes softening: "Zhenzhen, you have a simple temper. I know that if I tell you before this, Qian Yong is not a good person, you will never believe it, so I contacted you secretly. Asen, now that I’m here and questioning you, you can see clearly now that Qian Yong has no place for you in his heart!”
"Dad..." Teng Zhen held Teng Pei and cried loudly.
After comforting his daughter, Teng Pei looked at Hu Sen: "According to my original intention, Qianjia Trading Company should be handed over to you, but the eldest brother said that the Teng family's last hope lies in you! You can't stay in Jinzhou, you We have to go back to Cangzhou! Take back the glory that belongs to our Teng family from the Long family!"
"My surname is Hu, not Teng!" Hu Sen refused coldly.
But Teng Pei just shook his head and looked at him with a sad face: "Asen, you don't know anything. Your mother was killed by the Long family back then. Your father didn't believe that your grandfather committed suicide! Everything was in accordance with the instructions of the gods. That's what happened, so Big Brother had to abandon you."
"What kind of instructions from the gods? Don't use these ghosts and gods to deceive me!" Hu Sen was already impatient.
Teng Pei didn't want to say it at first, but now, he had no choice but to tell it all.
"Do you still remember the dry well in the north of the city? Nine hundred and ninety-nine Wu clan people were sacrificed there, plus ninety-nine new-born Wu clan babies."
"You said those bones under the dry well are all from the Wu tribe!" Hu Sen already knew that place, and so did Wei Shuang, but neither of them knew where these people came from.
They investigated many case files and found that there were no such large number of missing people in and around Jinzhou.
