His business was not small, only ten taels of silver, and he didn't care much about it.
If you can avoid shaving your hair, let alone ten taels of silver, one hundred taels, one thousand taels, it is not unacceptable.
After all, the money rat tail is really ugly!
Fan Kangnian nodded slightly when he heard this and continued.
"I also heard it from Young Master Sanba. Young Master Sanba heard it from my master, and my master heard it in the court."
"I guess it can't be wrong!"
Li Wen asked curiously.
"Shopkeeper Fan, you said this is free of charge, can we pay it?"
"Will there be any taboo after I hand it over?"
Li Wen was also a little moved by this, because the money rat tail is really ugly...
However, his reason suppressed his impulse.
The reason is very simple, he is afraid that I will have to settle the accounts!
Now that the war in the south of the Qing Dynasty was tense and they were short of money, they decided to make money by offering a free haircut.
But after the war in the south is over and the Qing Dynasty is not short of money, they can issue another hair-cutting order.
Keep your head but not your hair, keep your hair but not your head. Give those who have paid the money for free shaving a big label for resisting the Qing government, and then have their homes ransacked and beheaded.
It’s not impossible!
I know everything about the reputation of the Qing Dynasty!
It's impossible to say for sure.
No one dares to risk their lives on whether the Qing Dynasty will keep its word.
Therefore, if there is no definite news, although Li Wen is moved, he will not take action.
Fan Kangnian stroked the beard on his chin and said.
"It's hard to say, it's really hard to say this!"
"Anyway, no one in my Fan family will be exempt from shaving money. It's up to you whether you pay or not."
The Fan family only made their fortune after selling out to Ming Dynasty. They are hardcore traitors.
Everyone else can stop shaving their hair, but not the Fan family.
Everyone in the Fan family had to shave their heads to firmly express their stance and show that they were of the same mind as the Qing Dynasty.
Li Wen and others nodded in seeming understanding and made their own decisions.
…
The same restaurant, only separated by one floor in the cellar.
Many well-built men were busy inside and outside, wielding shovels and struggling to dig tunnels.
Looking at the direction the tunnel leads to, it is the Imperial Palace and the Forbidden City!
The soil dug out of the tunnel was transported out using pure manpower and dispersed throughout the outer city.
Because it is spread widely enough, the traces left behind are not very eye-catching and will not attract attention.
The person in charge of Jinyiwei's secret line in the capital is named Wu, with the same single character.
My family has been a Jin Yiwei for generations, and my ancestors have been Jin Yiwei for thousands of households.
After the fall of the Qian Ming Dynasty, he did not want to cut off his hair and change clothes to become an obedient citizen of the Qing Dynasty, but decided to become a bandit and continue to resist the Qing Dynasty.
After being re-acquired by the Ming Dynasty, he chose to return to his family's old business and became a royal guard.
Then he was sent to the capital as the person in charge!
Of course, he is just one of the people in charge.
There are several hidden lines in the capital of Ming Dynasty. They belong to different parties and the identity of each other is unknown.
Not even sure if the other party exists.
Quite cautious!
When it comes to intelligence, Jin Yiwei is really professional.
In other words, Chongzhen was stupid and destroyed Jin Yiwei, otherwise he would not have had a dark eye on the overall situation of the world.
After looking around the tunnel, Wu Tong spoke.
"How is the tunnel digging going?"
A man covered in dust and with gray marks on his face spoke.
"Replying to my lord, hurry up, we can dig near the imperial city in a day or two at most."
But it's only close to the left, and you can't dig into the palace.
Because, the underground in the palace is also very particular.
Even if there are dense drainage pipes, emergency tunnels and other facilities under the palace, the floor tiles of the palace are also very particular.
The thinnest brick layer is covered with dozens of layers of gold bricks, making it impossible to dig tunnels into them.
Even if they dug under the palace, they could not reach the ground.
The quality of those gold bricks is really not something you can boast!
Wu Tong had a smile on his face, took out a piece of yellowed paper, and said with a smile.
"guess what is this?"
His subordinates were a little confused and shook their heads sincerely.
"I don't know, please help me clarify my doubts!"
Wu Tong nodded slightly and then spoke.
"This is the general structural diagram of the palace left by Emperor Chengzu when he built the imperial city."
"Hehe, there are really a lot of secret tunnels under this palace..."
If they had to dig by themselves, they would definitely not be able to dig into the palace, but if they could find the tunnels left behind when the palace was built, they could directly enter the palace from the outer city of the capital.
Wu Tong glanced around and then spoke.
"Some time ago, His Royal Highness Jianguo was assassinated under the protection of my royal guards."
"I command your lord to be punished for this!"
"This is Qinglu hitting my Jinyiwei in the face!"
"I can't swallow this breath no matter what!"
"This revenge must be avenged!"
"His Royal Highness the Governor personally gave us an order to prepare for reciprocal revenge."
"There are many people in charge in the capital, but this task was snatched away by me!"
"Those of us eat the food of the Ming Dynasty, receive the salary of the Ming Dynasty, work as officials of the Ming Dynasty, and our families are also taken care of by the court."
"His Royal Highness Jian Guo treats us so favorably, our lives can be regarded as sold to the Ming Dynasty."
"This operation must be completed even if we risk our lives!"
"Let the damn Qingluo know that if you dare to assassinate my Highness, the Supervisor of the Ming Dynasty, you will definitely pay the price!"
"..."
Everyone heard the words and agreed in unison.
The attitude is very firm!
…
Two days later, the tunnel was finally dug.
Wu Tong selected a group of more than a dozen people from his own men, all of whom were brave enough to fight.
Carrying explosive bags, grenades, crossbows, swords and other weapons, they went into the tunnels and made their way into the imperial city.
The stars and moon hung high in the sky, and the ground was covered with cold moonlight.
Behind a rockery in the Imperial Garden, a group of more than a dozen figures suddenly appeared like ghosts.
These people all carry a medicine box on their backs and are also wearing imperial doctor's clothes.
After the group emerged from behind the rockery, the leader looked up at the sky and judged the direction.
Then without saying a word, they walked quickly towards the Qianqing Palace together.
According to relevant information, Bumbutai and Kangxi will stay at Qianqing Palace tonight.
Just in time they took action!
The group of people pretended to be anxious and carried medicine boxes filled with various weapons.
Walking quickly under the moonlight, the moonlight stretched their backs.
At this moment, a group of palace guards saw the hurried "imperial doctors" and hurriedly stopped them for questioning.
The leading first-class guard wearing a yellow mandarin jacket asked.
"Stop, who are you?"
"How dare you break into the palace late at night and walk freely in the palace without fear of death?"
Since they were wearing imperial doctor's clothes, these guards did not take action directly, but started questioning them.
Wu Tong and others were stopped in their tracks.
Looking at the few guards blocking the road, Wu Tong spoke in a hurried tone to the leader in a yellow mantle.
"I'm waiting for the doctor from Naitai Hospital!"
"The Emperor fell ill late at night, convulsed and fell into coma. The Empress Dowager urgently summoned me for consultation. Please get out of the way and don't block the way!"
"Otherwise, if you miss something serious, your heads won't be able to bear the burden!"
After saying this, he very roughly pushed away the few guards who were blocking the way, and led the people to continue trotting towards Qianqing Palace.
Seeing this scene, several imperial guards drew their swords and wanted to pursue him.
However, he was stopped by the leader in yellow jacket. Amidst the confused eyes of several people, the leader in yellow jacket spoke.
