Chapter 288 Bounty of 10,000 Liang

 That day, Wu Xue fought against the giant python in the suburbs of Beijing. With his flexible movements, smart brain, and sharp claws, the giant python was consumed by it and finally died on the ground.

At that time, Wu Xue was so tired that she hunted a small animal and climbed to a nearby big tree to rest, preparing to drag the giant python back to the palace after dark to rescue its mistress.

This giant python is enough for the mistress to eat for many meals, and the snake gallbladder is a treasure, which Wu Xue is going to sacrifice to Lihua.

But he didn't expect that when it was dark, Mang Biao and his group settled under the tree carrying rice bran with hidden treasures, and happened to find the giant python.

They were not polite and immediately dug out the snake galls and soaked them in wine, and spent the night grilling and drinking.

In the wilderness, they relaxed their vigilance and talked about transporting the treasure. Afraid of being too conspicuous, they planned to transport it into the capital in batches and made a very detailed plan.

All these words were heard by Wu Xue in the tree.

Wu Xue has been taught since she was a child not to take the initiative to cause trouble unless trouble comes to her door.

The things to help the mistress are gone. According to Wu Xue's understanding, someone else came to provoke this, and Mang Biao and his gang must pay for it.

Wu Xue is a picky big cat, and there are not many things that he can like. Among Mang Biao's group, only the treasures he transported can barely take a fancy to.

Ever since, Wu Xue has been keeping an eye on them, day and night, and has no time to return to the palace.

The reason why Wu Xue believed that they were bad guys was not only because they ate its trophies, but also because Mang Biao and the others had committed too many sins, and they had an unnoticeable smell of blood and murder. Most people felt that, but Wu Xue could.

Wu Xue's cat had no psychological burden to begin with, and now he didn't even hesitate at all. When the opportunity came, he plucked it hard until all the treasures it was interested in were plucked away.

So Mang Biao and his group were not wronged. Who would have thought that a big cat is so intelligent and can understand human speech?

However, they confessed that they had recruited him, but the Mr. Yin they confessed to was difficult to find.

Yuchi Gong had seen the previous report and found that he had seen this name before.

Isn't this the Mr. Yin that the Internal Security Department is tracking down in Taiyuan Prefecture?

Hu Feifei had previously led people from the Internal Security Department to capture a spy outside the capital who falsely claimed to be selling pigeons. Unfortunately, he arrived a step too late and was let out of the capital.

He immediately sent people out to conduct a detailed investigation, and finally found a place where pigeons were raised in Taiyuan Prefecture. Like the capital, in order to confuse the public, meat pigeons and homing pigeons were mixed.

Hu Feifei did not make people arrest him immediately, but made people stare at him.

After careful investigation, they found that the place in Taiyuan Prefecture was a relay station for news, and carrier pigeons were kept to deliver news.

The master behind the message delivery was very cautious, and all news coming out of the capital was sent to Taiyuan Prefecture for processing before being passed on.

Moreover, every time a message is delivered, several pigeons are released at the same time and confused with several destinations, so the soldiers who raise pigeons have no idea where the real destination is.

Later, the Internal Security Department discovered that a character named Mr. Yin appeared in Taiyuan Mansion. Unfortunately, this man was cunning and escaped.

After Yu Chigong received the report, he keenly felt that the two Mr. Yin were the same person and he was definitely a key figure.

He intuitively felt that the appearance of this person was closely related to the corruption case of the Ministry of War.

So Wu Xue was immediately sent to assist Hu Feifei in searching for this person in the capital.

So Wu Xue has been busy these past two days, using her keen sense of smell to check people with Hu Feifei, but the result is not smooth.

Mr. Yin is very cautious. Mang Biao and his group don’t have his personal belongings, so there is nothing for Wu Xue to smell. As for the piece with the eagle carved on it, the smell left on it has long since dissipated.

At this moment, Hu Feifei reported to the court: "Based on the portraits drawn by the gangsters, it was found that the two of them had indeed entered the capital. However, no inns or restaurants in the city found this person, so they thought he was hiding. The slaves and Wu Xue were still there.

We checked all the places where the two men were most likely to appear, but no suspicious person was found."

Yuchi Gong said a faint "hmm" and put down the report: "The person who hid the gangsters in the fourth courtyard was directed at King Kang in the end?"

Hu Feifei hurriedly lowered his head: "Yes. When we entered the courtyard, we found that the owner was a businessman who had been missing for more than three years. According to the person who handled it, the house was sold to a businessman by a beautiful woman. And the woman was a businessman.

The outer room of a nobleman has disappeared."

The Internal Security Department found out that the woman was a prostitute in Wenxiang Tower many years ago. She was spotted by the lecherous King Kang and ransomed into the palace.

Princess Kang immediately made a fuss, which was known to the late emperor, who later ordered to reprimand her.

King Kang did not dare to keep the woman in the palace anymore, so he bought a house to settle in.

Yuchi said respectfully: "It's Wen Xianglu again. I know this vaguely. Back then, the Third Emperor's brother forcibly bought a house that was owned by the then Minister of Civil Affairs. It turned out to be this house. What a coincidence."

Things were quite troubled at that time. King Kang was lustful and lustful, because a prostitute caused such trouble in the city that she was not welcomed by the late emperor.

Now that the gangsters are hiding in the house that King Kang originally bought, the direction is too obvious.

Yuchi Gong didn't believe this coincidence. King Kang was more like a blind eye, and the mastermind behind the scenes had an extra layer of insurance.

He picked up the piece with the eagle carved on it and played with it in his hands, thinking to himself.

Wen Xianglu, King Kang, Yang Zhixu, Mrs. Yang Zhixu Liangyue, transfer to Taiyuan Prefecture...

Hu Feifei lowered his head and waited respectfully.

Yuchi Gong suddenly asked: "Are Yang Zhixu and his wife both from Liangzhou?"

Hu Feifei quickly replied: "Exactly."

A cold light flashed in Yuchi Gong's eyes: "My good uncle who is far away in Liangzhou, Prince Liang, I have not cared about for a long time."

The two sentences seem to have no connection.

Hu Feifei was confused at first, but when he thought about it again, he was suddenly enlightened.

Wenxiang House has been raided. Many officials came in and out of this place a few years ago. This brothel was a place for collecting intelligence and winning over officials.

If Yang Zhixu hadn't been brought to justice too late, and the mastermind behind the brothel had cut off his wrists and silenced many people, the Internal Security Department would have followed the lead and investigated.

Speaking of Yang Zhixu, he lost his money on the way to Beijing to take the exam, and was helped by Mrs. Yang Liangyue, who was from Wenxianglou.

How could a brothel girl who had sold her body appear on Yang Zhixu’s way to Beijing to take the exam for no reason?

Unless it was planned!

Yang Zhixu ranked first in the Liangzhou Provincial Examination and was not an unknown person in the local area. Naturally, he was noticed by interested people in Liangzhou, and it was not surprising that they arranged a beauty trap for him on the road.

In addition, Taiyuan Prefecture is a transfer station for homing pigeons, which is the middle zone between Beijing and Liangzhou.

Yuchi Gong thought about it and ordered: "Hu Feifei, since the man named Mr. Yin is so cunning and hard to find, we will post wanted notices everywhere in the capital and offer a reward of ten thousand taels of silver for this person."

Hu Feifei came to his senses and hurriedly tried to stop him. They arrested this person in secret this time, just because they were afraid that the people behind the scenes would find out and silence him first.

But before the words came out, Yuchi Gong raised his hand to stop him and continued: "After a few days, I will tear down the notice, announce to the outside world that the reward has been cancelled, and this person will no longer be wanted. At the same time, the treasures of the gangsters seized this time will be transported back to the palace with great fanfare."
