At this time, Tong Guan was sitting in the hall, frowning.
In his hand, he held the jade pendant.
For a long time, I didn't say a word.
I don’t know how long it took, but Tong Guan sighed helplessly:
"Judging from the current situation, my son must have been kidnapped by a group of thieves."
"But what do the words engraved on this jade pendant mean?"
"Is it the character "green" in the name of the person who kidnapped him, or is it the character "green" in the name of the place where my son was kidnapped?"
"Or is it that my conjecture is completely wrong?"
The expression on Tong Guan's face became more and more gloomy, and then he used his fist to hit his extremely chaotic head hard.
Suddenly, Tong Guan's eyes suddenly widened.
At the same time, his face became more and more ugly, and he couldn't help blurting out:
"Could it be possible, could it be possible that it was the thieves from Qingfeng Mountain who kidnapped my son?"
"My son was so frightened that he had no choice but to use his nails to carve this word on the jade pendant?"
"But before my son could finish writing the green character, he was already knocked unconscious?"
"If that's the case..."
"Then this matter will be difficult to handle."
At this moment, Tong Guan really wanted to kill the soldiers and horses under his command, so he immediately commanded his troops and headed straight for Qingfeng Mountain.
He wanted to ask Song Jiang face to face whether he wanted to die or not.
What kind of evil idea was behind abducting his godson this time?
But the important matter of sending troops is really a matter of affecting the whole body.
If he acted rashly at this time, officials in the imperial court who were quite hostile to him would most likely take this opportunity to go to Zhao Ji to get a copy of him.
If it really comes to that point, even if Tong Guan has many accomplices in the court, it will be really difficult to handle.
But if he had real evidence here, it could prove that it was indeed the Qingfengshan group who abducted his godson this time.
Then when he went to the court to meet Zhao Ji, he would have something to say, evidence to follow, and laws to follow.
For Tong Guan, determining who is the culprit this time is the most important thing at the moment.
Since he had searched Tokyo for so long but still found no other useful information, he mobilized his own soldiers and the government officials in Kaifeng to gradually expand the search area to include the entire city of Tokyo.
Even the small shops in the mountains and wild areas within a few miles of the surrounding area were not spared.
In addition, Tong Guan also called the two sisters Zhu Ziyao and Zhu Ziyun through other channels and asked them to join the search team.
Because in Tong Guan's view, the two Zhu sisters have been in the world for a long time, and their behavior and other political methods are far superior to the personal soldiers and guards he has raised in his mansion, as well as the government servants in Kaifeng Mansion.
If these two sisters also participated in searching for the whereabouts of his godson, then the result would be twice the result with half the effort.
When the two Zhu sisters received the commission from Tong Guan, they agreed without much hesitation.
But not long after the two sisters walked out of the Tong Mansion, they turned around and came to Wu Zhi and told each other the news.
And when Wu Zhi knew the news, he was naturally very happy.
Then he gave the next plan to the two sisters.
About two days later.
The two Zhu sisters came to Tong Mansion again and told Tong Guan the "more accurate information they had found out in the past two days".
And when Na Tong Guan learned that after these days of 'careful investigation', the two sisters had determined that the culprit who kidnapped his godson was the gang of gangsters at Qingfeng Village.
In my heart, I suddenly became impatient.
Because this result happened to be exactly the same as what Tong Guan had imagined.
This also strengthened Tong Guan's desire to send troops to Qingfeng Village.
Later that day.
Tong Guan hurried to the palace to find Zhao Ji. When Tong Guan told Zhao Ji what he was thinking, Zhao Ji couldn't help but frown in surprise.
And when he heard that Tong Guan wanted to use troops against Qingfeng Village, a look of reluctance appeared on Zhao Ji's face.
Because in Zhao Ji's view, after all, the matter of Song and Jin joining forces to attack Daliao has been discussed since the year before.
After the year, the cooperation intention was officially reached.
In one day's time, the army of the Song Dynasty will leave the country and attack the Liao Dynasty together with the Jin soldiers.
And at such a juncture, as the commander-in-chief of the army, how could Tong Guan lead the tens of thousands of troops and horses allocated to him by the court to handle his family's private affairs?
But Tong Guan was, after all, one of Zhao Ji's doting ministers, so he couldn't refuse Tong Guan's request outright for a while.
That's why he has this embarrassing expression now.
After a long time, Zhao Ji shook his head helplessly:
"Tong Aiqing, I know you are very eager to rescue your godson from Qingfeng Mountain Stronghold."
"But now, there is only one day left before you can lead the army to go on an expedition?"
"At such an extremely serious juncture, as the commander-in-chief of the army, it is really inconvenient for you to leave your post without authorization, especially when the commander-in-chief has troops and horses to attack the grass bandit's stronghold."
"Because no matter whether you win or lose in the end, it will be shameless for our Song Dynasty."
"And it's not easy for us, the Song Dynasty, to explain the Kingdom of Jin."
"If this offends the Kingdom of Jin, it will not be appropriate for the relationship between our Song and Jin countries."
"What do you think, Tong Aiqing?"
When Tong Guan heard Zhao Ji's words, he immediately felt anxious. He couldn't help but secretly thought, those children who were kidnapped were not your children. Of course you don't know how to be anxious.
If this time, my godson is really involved in this incident, missing an arm, breaking a leg, or even losing his life.
Then wouldn’t it be that all the hard work I’ve put into raising her for so many years has been wasted?
Of course, Tong Guan would never dare to tell these truths in front of Zhao Ji.
But now that things have come to this, he is even more unwilling to accept his fate.
So he could only change the topic and said this to Zhao Ji very cleverly:
"It's true what the officials said."
"Normally speaking, this matter should indeed be done according to the official's instructions."
"But if you think about it carefully, it's really terrifying."
Zhao Ji frowned, and then looked at Tong Guan with a puzzled expression:
