Wang Shengzhi's heart was full of questions at this time.
"Caught at Jinmen Ferry?" Good guy, I was obviously stabbed to death by you, but now I'm just trying to do something counterproductive?
Li Changyuan continued: "Yes, when the leader of the Cao Gang was doing important things at Jinmendu, he was discovered. Many members of the Cao Gang were arrested, and the leader was also taken aboard the official ship. That official ship was not simple. On the surface,
They are official ships, but they are actually traitors!"
"If you can get on the boat, kill the enemy's thief quietly, and rescue the gang leader, it will be a great achievement."
After listening to his words, Wang Shengzhi finally understood what he was planning.
Is this because he is good at martial arts and plans to let him sneak into the official ship quietly and then kill His Majesty for him?
Unfortunately, he made a wrong calculation.
Seeing that the other party had exposed his relationship with the Cao Gang, Wang Shengzhi did not hesitate anymore.
He pretended to ask: "How much defense is on the official ship, and where is the gang leader being imprisoned? Please let Mr. Li know clearly."
Li Changyuan motioned for him to come closer and listen. Wang Shengzhi took a step forward and suddenly moved his hand around to cover the other person's mouth, and then twisted his neck with force. This great transshipment envoy who was making waves on both sides of the canal lost his life.
Until his death, he could not believe that the change had happened so quickly.
This man is not from the Cao Gang, why should he be killed?
Unfortunately, everything comes to nothing.
After killing Li Changyuan, the few remaining cronies also acted quickly and followed suit. The entire transfer embassy was completely killed by them without anyone noticing.
After the killing, Wang Shengzhi left writings such as "Caobang" in the hall and disappeared into the night with his cronies.
The next day.
The case of the Shuidu Supervisor's transfer envoy's entire family being wiped out immediately shocked the entire Grand Canal.
Not only that, members of the two major Cao gangs, the Hedong Gang and the Hexi Gang, who were always arrogant and domineering in the river, seemed to have suddenly disappeared overnight, completely missing.
The Chang'an Ministry of State Affairs was greatly shocked when they heard about this a few days later.
Lord Fang Xuanling quickly convened the Ministry of State to discuss the matter. After discussion, all the Lords agreed that the matter should be thoroughly investigated. However, after a special letter was submitted, there was no news about the matter.
No one knows what happened. They only know that the imperial court just randomly sent a team to inspect the transfer mission, and combined with the death of the Caobang, it was finally announced that the Cao Gang's people and the transfer mission were fighting each other for revenge. Now the Caobang
They were all wiped out, and Mr. Li Changyuan also died. After the Ministry of State gave corresponding rewards, it ended hastily.
As for the reward for the transshipment envoy, since the other party has been exterminated, the reward naturally does not need to be implemented.
At this point, the Beijing-Hangzhou Grand Canal riots came to an end.
Li Ye and other prominent families in Hangzhou are still waiting for news about the Beijing-Hangzhou Grand Canal.
The self-proclaimed eighteenth prince has a profound strategy. He not only planned the canal to Hangzhou, but Li Ye found out recently that the Beijing-Hangzhou Canal is also his own. If Qin Huaidao takes the water route, there is a high probability that the canal gang will take action.
But when the news came, things turned out not to be what they thought.
"It turned out that the transfer envoy and the Cao Gang were fighting each other, and it ended with the Cao Gang being wiped out and the transfer envoy being silenced?" Li Ye didn't know the true identity of the transfer envoy sent by the Shuidu Supervisor to the Beijing-Hangzhou Grand Canal. Even the Cao Gang and he
He had never been in contact with it before, so he couldn't believe it when he saw this ending.
Several people imagined many situations.
Shangguan Yunque wondered whether it was His Majesty's secret ambush that caught the Cao Gang members off guard, which led to the failure. As for the notification sent by the government, it might be a cover-up move by the imperial court.
The head of the Jiang family also has this idea.
As for Li Ye, although he thought so, he did not dare to say it explicitly for fear of damaging the morale of these family plans.
After thinking about it, he made an excuse for the matter: "Everyone, I don't think it is necessarily the method of the Dog Emperor. Just think about it, the Caogang has developed so much on both sides of the Taiwan Strait, and I heard that the transfer envoy, Li Changyuan, is not an ordinary person.
It seems that he has many internal contacts in the Cao Gang, and it is reasonable to know the Cao Gang's plans in advance and respond to them. Otherwise, how can he keep the canal safe for many years?"
After hearing Li Ye's explanation, these prominent families also felt that it was reasonable and gradually accepted the matter.
As for their plan, they should be careful not to worry about ten thousand, but to be careful about the worst.
On the canal, there were official boats moving slowly. Without the checkpoints of the river soldiers, many civilian boats were no longer stranded and flowed down the canal, as if nothing happened that night.
Most of these civilian ships carried commercial items. They transported northern utensils to the south, and also transported grain, tax, and money from the south to the north and Chang'an. It was much more convenient to use waterways.
At this time, Qin Huaidao realized that those ancient poems describing the grand sceneries on the river bank were not empty words.
Before they knew it, everyone was traveling to Yangzhou.
The whole of Suzhou and Hangzhou is a very important link in the transportation and road planning of Qin Huaidao, not only because they are located on the waterway, but also because of the prosperous and open commercial trade here.
Therefore, when passing by this place, he took Cheng Chumo and four others off the official ship and stopped briefly to experience the local customs and customs.
I saw that Yangzhou City was bustling with people, merchants were constantly coming and going, and the streets were lined with all kinds of strange gadgets from all over the world. These merchants were constantly selling, making it a lively scene.
"Come and take a look, come and take a look. The newly released pearls from Longyou Road are bright in color and of high quality. You can get them for only thirty silver dollars. You won't miss this place again."
"Chang'an Daily, the first published Chang'an Daily, was designated by His Majesty, written by Xue Yuanchao and Xue Shaolang himself. Don't miss this opportunity, come and buy it as soon as possible."
"This is a rare and top-quality silk. Only I, Liu Zihao, have it in Yangzhou. You can see and buy it."
"You're bragging, isn't the German brand silk much better than yours?" some people said with a smile.
Shopkeeper Liu Zihao didn't refute: "Wouldn't you know if it's good or not when you buy one?"
Looking at the stalls and shops along the street, Qin Huaidao didn't react much, but instead made Cheng Chumo and others excited.
He quietly approached Qin Huaidao and was about to call him "Your Majesty" when he suddenly remembered that a few people were traveling in a low-key manner and quickly changed his words: "Brother Qin, I really have you. The Chang'an Daily has been sold here. It seems that this ideological offensive is famous far and wide. I'll go
Look how much they cost here."
Qin Huaidao smiled and said, "Go ahead."
He was also curious about why Yangzhou also had Chang'an Daily. When a few people crowded in front of the stall and took a look, they couldn't help but laugh.
The Chang'an Daily that reached Yangzhou was only on the first page!
"On the Equality of Everyone" written by Qin Huaidao himself is still on the New Thought column, but the newspaper has passed through countless hands and has become wrinkled.
