It is said that Jia Conghao had a man named Mei coaxed into a quiet place and shot him to death. Chen Ruijin, who suffered a loss, relied on his early experience to defraud him. Jia Congnai asked: "How did you know that he was the emperor's man?"
"You guessed it." Chen Ruijin said, "Since we didn't intend for us to leave alive, we can't commit fraud on the house. The house is at least fifty or sixty years old. Ordinary houses wouldn't have two zodiac animals engraved on them. If it weren't for the Supreme Emperor, there would always be
It can't be the late emperor."
Jia Cong held his chin and said, "You want to kill me at this point. It's obviously related to that Fan Mei. They are the ones who helped Fan Mei steal the dragon and turn the dragon into a phoenix." Chen Ruijin nodded slightly. Jia Cong said again, "Think about it from the beginning.
The most uncontrollable thing is when I go to buy snacks. They can't expect me to go back to buy snacks today. Unless they wait at the snack shop."
Chen Ruijin said: "The dim sum in that shop has a bit of the Beijing style."
"Oh!" Jia Cong said, "Then the dim sum shop is probably opened by them... Huh? Why is it so familiar?" He frowned and thought for a long time, then suddenly clapped his hands and shouted, "Oh! I remembered it!"
During the chaos in Beijing in the early years, Jia Huan sincerely set a trap for the young prince's family, claiming that he would eat all the dim sum shops in the capital. Sure enough, someone took the bait and opened a delicious dim sum shop to get acquainted with him.
There was also a scholar surnamed Mei who ate with him, who eventually claimed to be the eldest prince. In the end, the dim sum shop was opened by the sixth prince’s mother’s family - which is now the Zeng family of Lu State; that prince Mei later became the seventh prince.
As a prince, Han Quan seemed to have had a hand in being sent to the Rongguo Mansion. Later, Jia Cong found out that Mr. Mei was the son of Mei Hanlin, the one who was originally engaged to Xue Baoqin. The Mei family finally broke off the engagement with Xue Baoqin,
It was the fifth prince's mother's family who intervened again. This person never showed up later, and no one in the Jia family paid attention to him. Looking back now, looking back, he was involved in four of the seven sons of the Supreme Emperor.
Chen Ruijin asked: "Since he is Mei Hanlin's son, have you ever met him?"
Jia Cong said: "I should have seen the theory in the Hanlin Academy. I have no impression. If he is careful and sincere, it is normal for him to not attract attention. I suspect that back then, this man surnamed Mei had flirted with all the princes and their mothers, including the Zeng family.
One copy. The token he crafted for the Lu Kingdom was genuine. Now that he had boarded the ship of the Zeng family, it was too easy for him to sneak into the hands of King Lu. Especially when the King of Lu first arrived in the fiefdom, he was very poor and had nothing to do, so he could be picked as a craftsman by Liu Dengxi.
Yes, he must be very capable. Whether it is coaxing the little brat like King Lu or coaxing the Zeng family, it is easy."
Chen Ruijin nodded and said: "The Kingdom of Shu is not far from the Kingdom of Qin. The Supreme Emperor and the illegitimate son escaped from Chang'an, so it would be cheaper to avoid the Kingdom of Shu."
"If so, it can be concluded that Fan Meiren must have their people around her." Jia Cong scratched his head, "Then they are very powerful. The timeliness is too strong. I remember that it was already autumn when the special battalion left Dajiala and rushed to Chang'an.
It’s almost the new year when Fu’er and the others come back. This seventh princess seems to have been born in the first month of the year?”
"It's the first month. It was the eleventh month of the old year when the Supreme Emperor escaped from Qin."
"Suppose that as soon as the Supreme Emperor escaped, he sent the Huashan Taoist priests to come to Shu to contact the bald old man. It would take less than two months to formulate a plan to steal the dragon and turn the phoenix into a phoenix, seduce Fan Meiren, and get a baby boy who was born at the same time.
"Jia Cong frowned for a long time and suddenly asked, "Where are those four Wen Pos from?"
Chen Ruijin said: "They are all locals from Chengdu."
"Is there a bald old man among Wenpo?"
"That house...the bald old man and the hunchbacked old servant are like two guards. I just don't know what they are guarding." Chen Ruijin said, "So the two of them shouldn't be working in detail."
Jia Cong held his cheek and remained silent for a long time. Then he suddenly bared his teeth and said, "We do some fine work in Chengdu, right?"
"Yes. What do you want to do?"
Jia Cong chuckled: "Sowing discord!"
"Who are you trying to alienate?"
Jia Cong whistled: "My son and I." Chen Ruijin raised his eyebrows.
There is a small side door leading to the outside of the palace near the big kitchen of the prince's house. It is used to deliver vegetables, rice, firewood and charcoal cheaply. It is open during the day and locked at night. Early the next morning, the people in the kitchen opened the small side door and suddenly heard "
There was a "bang" sound, and I was startled. It was not yet dawn, and the man was lighting a lantern. He looked down and saw something shining brightly outside the threshold. When he got closer and took a closer look, it turned out to be a handful.
Dagger! There was a letter stuck on the tip of the dagger, and there were words on the letter. The man didn't recognize the words, so he hurried out and looked around for a long time, but he didn't see anyone. Then he went back and locked the door, not even daring to take the letter off the dagger.
I plugged it in and gave it to the steward.
The steward didn't know much about reading, and the gentlemen from the accounting office hadn't come to the house yet. The steward walked around the house several times in fear. He remembered that there were some Mr. Qingke living in the living room of the mansion, so he hurriedly ran to hit the one under the west corridor.
Qing Ke's door. The Qing Ke woke up in confusion. He listened to the steward dancing and talking for a long time before he finally understood. He took the dagger and the letter and looked at it. The envelope read: The Crown Prince opened it personally. It's urgent. Qing Ke didn't dare to open it.
He opened the door and did not dare to neglect. Together with the steward, he woke up the chief steward. After a while, the prince was finally disturbed.
The prince opened the letter and took a look. The person who wrote the letter claimed to be a "fine writer from another country". He said that he knew that His Highness the Third Highness and Mr. Jia Sanye of the Rongguo Mansion were investigating the matter of the little princess's female child being born male, so he was at the Third Highness's Mansion every day.
They were guarding the door in order to get a look at Mr. Jia San's face. It was the same situation yesterday.
Yesterday, Mr. Jia Sanye came out of His Highness's Residence. His face was gloomy at first, but after he got on the horse, he suddenly smiled. Although he didn't know why, as those who work in this profession must be careful, he followed Mr. Jia quietly. He didn't expect Mr. Jia Sanye to actually do it.
He went to the snack shop to buy some snacks. Xizuo thought he would have to return empty-handed again today, and was about to go home for dinner when he saw someone calling Jia Cong to buy snacks for him. Xizuo didn't recognize the person, so he stayed for a while.
Then I saw Jia Cong and the man carrying snacks to have tea. Later, Grandma Jia San also came. After a while, the couple actually walked away with the man, and it was obvious that the man was leading the way.
He followed them far behind and followed them through the city until they arrived at a strange big house in Zhuzhi Lane. Since he didn't dare to get close, Xi Zuo only took a few peeks from a distance. They just stood at the door of the house.
After entering, Mr. Jia sang a dozen little songs at the top of his lungs! Then they went home... I am puzzled by this article. I don't know what Mr. Jia and his wife were going to do. As a man with mediocre martial arts skills,
It is too risky to investigate a strange house. I went back and thought for two hours, and decided to give this piece of information to the prince of Shu for free. I wonder if Mr. Jia told the prince about this? If not, he came to Shu
Does the country have other official duties?
The prince held the letter and thought about it for a long time. He did not doubt Jia Cong. If Jia Cong had any ill intentions towards the Kingdom of Shu or himself, he would not have helped the King of Shu dig out the Seven Yin Formation in the tunnel last time, nor would he
It was exposed that Ding Wangji and his son were trying to confuse the truth with lies. However, Jia Cong was not a minister of the Shu Kingdom, but he just hoped that the Shu Kingdom would occupy more overseas lands. It was not only the Shu Kingdom that sent troops overseas, but also the Yan Kingdom and the Wu Kingdom. Now Lu was added to the list.
Chu, Qin, Lu and other countries. If that house had anything to do with other countries, I'm afraid Jia Cong would not care about it. Although he knew that the person who wrote the letter had bad intentions, the prince could not help but turn a blind eye. So he ordered someone to ask
Lord Qiu Liang is passing by.
It was not yet dawn. When Qiu Liang heard in his sleep that the Crown Prince had something urgent to ask him, he was so frightened that he sat up and hurriedly put on his clothes for going out and rushed over. After the two met, the Crown Prince silently handed over the dagger.
The letter passed: "Last night someone stuffed something in the crack of the side door of my house."
Qiu Liang was also shocked when he saw it: "This..."
The prince said, "I think what this man said is probably true."
Qiu Liang said: "Since he did it carefully, why didn't he investigate secretly?"
"Master Qiu, where are you watching?"
Qiu Liang thought for a moment: "Does it mean that he knows who owns that house? Or, Wu Guoxizuo found out that Jia Cong had contacts with Yan Guoxizuo and deliberately led us to investigate Yan Guoxizuo?"
The prince said: "Whether what is said in this letter is true or false, let's find out first before speaking." Qiu Liang accepted the order and left.
Qiu Liang was a capable man. He had hunted thieves at night many times in the capital in his early years. He knew that these people would wake up at the slightest sign of trouble. He immediately went back and ordered the 800 musketeers, and while it was still dark, he attacked the house in Zhuzhi Lane like tigers and wolves.
, surrounded them in the blink of an eye. Qiu Liang himself rode around the house twice, and when he saw that it was blocked, he ordered people to knock on the door. After a long time, no one answered, and the soldiers began to knock on the door. The door was too broken, and he did not knock on it twice.
A hole was smashed out, and all the soldiers rushed in.
Everyone held torches and went in to take a look, but there was no one inside. The huge house was dusty, as if no one had lived there for a long time. It was on the ground floor, and the tables and desks were all very clean. What does Qiu Liang do? He stood in the front yard and looked around.
He saw the clues at a glance. He pointed to the patio of the small courtyard on the right and said: "There is water in the water tank." He also ordered people to see the kitchen. Suddenly the soldier came back and said: "There is rice, noodles and water in the kitchen."
Liang nodded and ordered to search carefully. After a while, the soldiers found quilts in many houses. There was still warmth on them, and it was obvious that someone had just left. But they couldn't find anyone. They searched inside and outside. I don't know if those people were flying with wings.
He left or escaped.
If anyone else came to search, they would have to make guesses and look for clues. However, Qiu Liang personally checked the tunnels of the Prince of Shu's palace before, and later also checked the tunnels of Ding Wangji's house, so the first thing he suspected was the tunnels. He ordered the general to check the tunnels underground.
The green bricks were lifted up, and the ground was turned over inch by inch. If there was a shortage of manpower, more would be needed.
While the soldiers were lifting up the bricks, Qiu Liang walked around with his hands behind his hands. The house was very big, and Qiu Liang slowly took a closer look. He turned to a small courtyard next to the garden, and suddenly looked up. The old man saw a man standing at the door of the courtyard.
A pair of door pillars. Usually door pillars are at the main entrance. It is rare to have pillars at the entrance of an inner courtyard. Looking at it again, I can’t help but frown - this door pillar is actually a pair of stone piers, and the courtyard wall is also larger than ordinary inner courtyards.
The wall of the courtyard was much higher. Qiu Liang raised his legs and was about to walk in when he suddenly felt a strange feeling and took his steps back. He ordered the soldiers around him: "Call more people over."
After a while, dozens of soldiers came over, and Qiu Liang asked them to go in and check. The soldiers kicked the door open, but there was no one inside, so Qiu Liangfang walked in. He saw that there were five rooms in the courtyard, one main room and two rooms on each side.
There was no tree in the wing room, and there were neat green bricks on the ground. Qiu Liang looked at it for a few times, and found that the green bricks on the ground were badly damaged and had not been renovated for an unknown period of time. What was strange was that there was not even a blade of grass.
The yard is very large, unlike the small yards next to ordinary people's gardens. The five rooms are also very large, square and square, with gray bricks and gray tiles. Usually a pair of owls are placed on the ridges of the houses, and the roofs of these houses are
It houses the zodiac animals.
A soldier asked: "Master Qiu, do you want to go in and take a look?"
Qiu Liang felt strange again. He stood in the courtyard and looked around for a long time. He waved his hand and said, "I'm a little dizzy." Then he turned around and left. He didn't go in. Several guards followed him out. Only when he was out of the hospital did Qiu Liang
The strange feeling in his conscience disappeared. Qiu Liang concluded that there was something strange in the courtyard, and ordered Duoduo to call in some civilians to dig out the courtyard first.
Although he came out, there were still many soldiers in the courtyard, and they were not allowed to go into the house to check. Suddenly he heard a "bang bang bang" noise inside, which was the sound of muskets. Qiu Liang was shocked: "There are thieves inside!" Everyone shouted.
Shouting "There is a thief——"
Then I heard a very eerie and unpleasant laughter coming from the courtyard, like an old owl crowing at night. A strange voice said: "Qiu Liang, you old thief, you run so fast!" Immediately, there were two "dong dong" sounds, and two
The shadow flew out from the courtyard door and hit the ground - it turned out to be the corpses of two Shu soldiers, their heads had been chopped off.
Qiu Liang calmed down, turned around at the door, stood with his hands behind his back, and sneered: "Which company is so rampant in craftsmanship! Don't forget that you are in my country of Shu!"
While the two of them were talking, there were constant sounds of muskets and screams in the courtyard. Soldiers from the Shu Kingdom immediately gathered around. Suddenly, another shadow flew out of the courtyard wall and hit the ground with a thud - again
It was the corpse of a Shu soldier, but this one was killed by a musket, so the head was still there. Then one corpse after another was thrown out from the door or the courtyard wall by the people inside. A rough count of the number of soldiers left inside was
No one was spared. The old owl-like laughter sounded again: "Old thief Qiu Liang, do you dare to come in?"
Qiu Liang took a few deep breaths, supported the guard beside him to steady himself, and said loudly: "Is there someone guarding you next to you? Otherwise, if you are so capable, why don't you come out?"
The man snorted coldly: "If I go out, won't I be sent under your hands?"
Qiu Liang said with a smile: "I think your ability is nothing more than this." Then he gestured to a confidant who was following him, and the confidant ran away.
The man said: "My ability is nothing more than this, so you can't get in."
Qiu Liang said: "You can't come out either! Do you dare to come out?"
"Do you dare to come in?"
The two of them kept talking for a long time among the corpses on the ground. While they were talking, Shu soldiers surrounded the courtyard. Qiu Liang laughed and said: "Your Excellency, you can't get out! If you want to get out, you will shoot randomly."
Salvo."
The man said inside: "What if I never go out for the rest of my life?"
Qiu Liang hummed, "Don't worry, it won't last as long as a lifetime." Then he ordered the soldiers to carry Paoze's body down.
It was already broad daylight now. After more than half an hour, the sound of gurgling could be heard in the distance, getting closer and closer, as if some kind of car was driving into the house. A soldier secretly turned his head and took a look, and he was overjoyed:
I saw a group of soldiers pouring in from the door of the round moon cave in the back garden, pushing or pulling a car - on the car was a Western artillery piece, which was the latest model.
