Du Xianyin was wearing a red dress today and looked very beautiful at the moment. She was burning incense and reading in the attic. When she saw Song Mu coming in, she stood up and saluted.
"Mr. Song, I think you came here because of a case, right?"
Du Xianyin said this, Song Mu nodded and said.
"Miss Du, do you have any clues?"
Du Xianyin nodded slightly, and Song Mu immediately raised his eyebrows. This time the other party invited Song Mu to sit down and drink tea, and then he took out a booklet and placed it in front of Song Mu.
When Song Mu saw this, he immediately picked up and read it carefully, while Du Xianyin also spoke beside him.
"In these days, we have also spent a lot of effort to find a lot of clues, and then we discovered that Chang'an's feet were already full of loopholes."
Song Mu was also flipping through the book in his hand at this moment, and saw what was said above, whether it was traffickers and lackeys, merchants and monks, they were all doing some odd jobs secretly.
They used all kinds of strange methods to not only bring silk and satin jewelry from Jiangnan into Chang'an, but even more, they were able to bring a large amount of goods with them.
These are mostly ways for people to escape taxation, but they also give thieves an opportunity to take advantage of them.
Song Mu read it carefully and put down the book in his hand quite angrily.
"This is what happened."
Song Mu sighed, but Du Xianyin beside him said slowly.
"There is a lot of helplessness in this matter. If you bring things from outside into Chang'an, you can earn twice as much silver. Naturally, some people will take risks."
"But this kind of approach, the impregnable Chang'an, is just empty words!"
Song Mu scolded him angrily, but he suppressed his anger at this moment, and this time he looked up at Du Xianyin and asked.
"Miss Du, is there one person among them who has close contact with the outside world? Is there something unusual about the inclusion?"
Du Xianyin lowered his eyes slightly before speaking.
"Indeed, there are. I have sent people to investigate some of these large caravans. Some of them are doing something to convey news. The farthest ones go all the way to the south."
When Song Mu heard this, he immediately remembered the names of several of the caravans, and also remembered some people through Du Xianyin's description.
But at this moment, Song Mu discovered that the jailer was not involved. After pondering for a moment, Song Mu still asked.
"Miss Du, is there anything...that someone from the government is involved in it?"
When Du Xianyin heard this, she had a look of confusion on her face, but she hesitated to speak. Song Mu looked over quickly, and Du Xianyin said softly.
"We also discovered some by chance. Among them were the lieutenants who changed guard at Chang'an Guard, the Ministry of Punishment and the Ministry of Industry, and even several poetry sects, all of whom were involved in liaisons with outsiders."
"Xingbu? Shi Zong?!"
Song Mu immediately became energetic after hearing this, but when he asked again, Du Xianyin shook his head one after another.
"As for the specific situation, Shu Xianyin can't do anything about it."
Song Mu didn't say much, but it already showed that even the government was doing some shameful things.
It seems that my inference is almost the same, but this matter is not something Du Xianyin can get involved in casually.
Song Mu was even more surprised by the news at this moment. It seemed that he had not thought that there would be nine more among them when he rushed over. Du Xianyi just nodded slightly and took out something again in his hand.
Song Mu was a little in disbelief at the moment, but he suppressed the shock in his heart. After asking some more details, Song Mu decided to change the direction.
Other people should be more aware of these things.
At that moment, Song Mu stood up to leave, but Du Xianyin stopped Song Mu with words.
"Master Song, please stay."
"Xianyin, there is one more thing I want to talk to the young master."
Song Mu paused when he heard this, turned around and looked up. Du Xianyin took out a copy of the post, placed it in front of Song Mu, and said.
"The Du Mu Poetry Sect was reestablished not long ago, but it has not been recognized by the literati of the world's poetry sect. It has just withdrawn the poems of its ancestors not long ago. Xianyin is going to take this opportunity to show off the different strengths of the Du Mu Poetry Sect."
"So Xianyin decided to hold a banquet. Xianyin hopes that Mr. Song will be able to attend."
Du Xianyin said this with a bit of shyness on her face. Seeing this situation, Song Mu didn't hesitate much. He accepted the post and nodded.
"Mr. Song will come to congratulate you then."
Du Xianyin suddenly smiled.
Coming out of Yuyinfang, Song Mu carefully put away the booklet and hurried towards the Qingtianwei Yamen.
Now, Song Mu is gradually trying to string together these messages. These channels are loopholes. The next step is to find out which of them belongs to An Guogong.
And in this matter, Qingtianwei will definitely be more convenient.
Song Mu also had some considerations about this. Due to historical reasons, the Qingtian Guards were not favored by orcs in Chang'an, so some information must not be comprehensive enough.
Du Xianyin's power can be regarded as completing the most minute details, and the key link must be known to Qingtianwei more clearly.
After all, the Qingtian Guards almost tracked down the traitor in Chang'an, but in the end, they didn't know why but let it go.
Song Mu stepped in front of the Qingtianwei's Yamen. The Yamen was still so deserted. Song Mu walked in, and Shen Long happened to be among them today.
"Master Song, you are here like this, but you want me, the Qingtian Guard, to help you investigate the case?"
When Shen Long saw Song Mu, he smiled and asked, and Song Mu nodded without hesitation.
Qing Tianwei had warned him to be careful about the situation in the city. Although the matter finally fell on the left prime minister, it could be regarded as indirectly helping him. Song Mu did not hesitate to tell his purpose.
"Master Song is talking about some clues that were used to track down the traitors in Chang'an, or..."
"No, Song only needs to know about the monsters that you discovered when they entered the city. There is also a list, but I need you to find a way to check it for me."
As he said that, Song Mu wrote a series of lists on the white paper, many of which were what Du Xianyin and Song Mu said, but Song Mu also added the criminal department and others.
Shen Long looked at the list immediately. Some of them and the caravans had been checked. This time, they also asked people to search through the files at that time. As for the remaining few, Shen Long also said that he would find a way as soon as possible. Find out.
But at this time, Shen Long looked at Song Mu, scratching his head and scratching his ears.
"Lord Song, don't you already know who this traitor from Chang'an is? Why not inform our Qingtian Guards about that, and then we can catch them all."
Song Mu silently shook his head.
"Master Shen, there are many different things about this matter. As you know, there are many people with mixed views."
Shen Long paused, then sighed slightly. This time he looked at Song Mu again and spoke.
"Sir Song, you should be more careful. Chang'an is currently in a turmoil. In the past two days, we have arrested two groups of people who deliberately caused trouble."
"These guys are all dead soldiers. They seem to have suddenly appeared in Chang'an during this time."
