Datang Longya

Chapter 13 Baiqisi and the Crimson Moon Bandit
After disposing of the mountain of memorials, Li Shimin picked up a thin box, found a bunch of keys and found the corresponding one according to the number, and Li Shimin opened the lock directly.

Taking out a long secret letter inside, Li Shimin studied it for a long time before he sighed.

"I bowed my head thousands of miles away. Today, the governor of Yangzhou accepted bribes from maritime merchants and changed the customs tax privately. I followed the wave and received a total of [-] dividends. The capital is far away, and the dividends are hot. I will use all the dirty money to build Jianshan. Church..."

This is a secret memorial of the Baiqi Division built by Li Shimin himself.

The Baiqi Division is equivalent to the Jinyiwei in the Ming Dynasty, directly subordinate to the emperor. Since Li Shimin was in power, the Baiqi Division has infiltrated several key departments of the state.

Yangzhou Seaport Port is one of them.

Li Shimin felt a little decadent. Only when he truly controlled the empire would he know what it means to be strong and hard to stretch.The power of the country is at a low ebb, but at this time moths will still appear.Three hundred guan is enough to feed the villagers of a village for two or three years.Even in the world known as the world of rich people, you can spend a whole day squandering.

In Yangzhou, it was just a hush money for a small official!

Don't they know that there are still many people in the world who are still crying and crying with cold and hunger!The more Li Shimin thought about it, the more angry he became, and the veins on his temples kept bulging.

A pair of gentle hands pressed Li Shimin's temples and massaged them skillfully.

Li Shimin didn't need to turn his head to know that it was the Changsun family who had come over. The husband and wife had developed a tacit understanding over the years, so they simply lay down and enjoyed it with their eyes closed.

"A Hu merchant in Dongshi had that red moon pattern on his door. His property was stolen the next day. You have been looking for this person for several years, why don't you try to reveal his true colors now?"

Li Shimin's voice was extremely exhausted: "This man's skill is indeed extraordinary. Back then, Emperor Yang of Sui's palace was so heavily guarded that he could enter seven times and exit seven times. Emperor Yang set up a net to catch him, and he didn't dare to let him out for the sake of face. The sea catcher. Unexpectedly, this guy has appeared again now, who will be marked next?"

Changsun sneered and said, "It's a building under heaven, it's a pity that Mr. Leng is practicing horseback riding outside the city, and Qingque and Ke'er are making arrangements now."

Li Shimin immediately recovered his spirits: "Send them the four priests of Baiqisi, and then send Shubao and Jingde! This time we must catch him!"

The priests in the Baiqi Division are sent out only when carrying out dangerous missions, a bit like dead soldiers.I usually keep a low profile, that is, I don’t work for money.

The four priests sent by Li Shimin were selected from thousands of scouts, and the oldest one had even experienced the war of Emperor Sui Yang's conquest of Goryeo.

The so-called scouts are scouts in ancient times.Before the army takes action, scouts will be sent out to investigate the road conditions and the enemy's situation.It is the unit with the highest fatality rate outside the battlefield. These four priests can already be called the king of scouts.

After being ordered to arrive at Tianxialou, these four people did not go to Li Tai and Li Ke to obey orders, but first thoroughly explored the surroundings of Tianxialou.Then they got together to discuss for a while, then dispersed, walked around and disappeared...

From time to time, he looked curiously at the fourteen dogs sent by the four princes, and rubbed his eyes. These four people didn't go out, why did they disappear?
Li Chengqian put down the binoculars, pulled Leng Feng's sleeve and asked, "Master, where did those four hide?"

Leng Feng took the binoculars from Li Chengqian, looked at them for a while, and said, "Looking at it from here, I can only guess that there is one on the beams and pillars of the garden pavilion."

Li Chengqian asked curiously: "Master, you can't even tell, can you only guess?"

Leng Feng smiled: "This is the so-called '360 lines, every line leads to the number one'. This is how the two teams practiced stealthily. Unfortunately, the fast team learned it well. Cheng Qian, you have to ask you Father learns, he is best at discovering talents among ordinary people."

Li Chengqian was very greedy for the telescope in the master's hand. Such a thing is simply "clairvoyance".Seeing Master throwing it on the table casually, my heart ached. Shouldn't such a treasure be placed in a brocade box?

The restaurant next to Tianxialou was also bought by Leng Feng at a very low price. It turned out that the owner of this restaurant only had one request, and that was to be the shopkeeper of this building.

This building is still under renovation, Leng Feng has not yet figured out how to use this building.

Night fell quietly, and after the sound of Jingjie drums, there were only a few Marquis Wu patrolling the streets, and the full moon hung high in the sky, casting silvery white moonlight all over Chang'an City.

It stands to reason that such actions in the dark are taboo for thieves, but Yang Yi doesn't think so.

As the descendant of Feiyuemen, it has been more than 800 years since it was founded in the Western Han Dynasty to his generation.Feiyuemen advocates robbing the rich and helping the poor, but there are also some prohibitions, such as not to rob good people.Relying on some money, that Hu businessman beat and scolded the hired Tang Min, robbing anyone else if he didn't!
Another example is Tianxialou, which is about to start today. It raises the price on the basis that its own wine is a top-quality product, and only entertains wealthy businessmen and scholars.Although Tianlou also does good deeds, but stealing a few jars of wine from him is not a violation of the precepts of the teacher's school!

Therefore, Yang Yi left a red moon mark on the door frame of Tianxia Building while Mao'er was waiting in front of the building's gate, where the waiters were full of people to deal with the wealthy businessmen who had no place to deal with.

This is also a rule passed down from the door, Yang Yi is very dissatisfied with this rule, and has notified the other party, it must be more difficult to do it!
But now Yang Yi complained, but he didn't care anymore.Because he has confidence in himself!
Yang Yi wiped his saliva, and he was a little drunk just imagining the taste of the wine from Tianxialou.

The warehouse where the gold and silver are stored in Tianxia Building is in the backyard, and next to it lives a group of killing gods who unified the boat gang and the salt gang.Yang Yi knew that although his lightness was unrivaled in the world, he was not very good in fights, so he didn't intend to make trouble.

Did not expect it!Master is here to steal wine!It's useless for you to guard against the backyard warehouse!Yang Yi almost laughed out loud.

The moonlight is charming, but there are always dark corners on the ground where the moonlight cannot reach, and Yang Yi shuttles quickly through these shadows.

At this moment, there was deathly silence in the backyard of Tianxia Building, even someone like Yu Chigong didn't dare to breathe heavily.The heartbeats of Li Tai and Li Ke kept speeding up. In order to deal with this thief, they set countless traps.

Slippery ground, deep traps, nooses...

Li Tai and Li Ke imagined the scene of being praised by the master after catching the thief.

But they are doomed to be disappointed!Yang Yi didn't want to go into the backyard at all, and the claws wrapped in thick cloth fell on the fence on the second floor of Tianxia Building with only a slight sound.

If you hook it up, you're a fool!After a full stick of incense, Yang Yi began to climb.Using both arms, Yang Yi seemed to have no weight, and Yang Yi climbed up the stairs within two breaths.

After taking a few steps to the door on the second floor, my feet landed on the ground as silently as a cat.

When he came to Tianxialou last time, it happened that there was an urgent shortage of wine downstairs, and the waiter moved down from the second floor.After asking, I found out that people on the first floor consume the most alcohol, and scholars on the second floor prefer to drink scented tea from Tianxialou instead of drinking much.

In this case, there must be a lot of wine on the second floor, as well as the so-called flower tea that is not available on the first floor.Let's try something that scholars like!
Thinking of this, Yang Yi took out a small knife as thin as a cicada's wing, inserted it through the crack of the door, and turned the latch bit by bit.

When the door bolt slammed, Yang Yi immediately retreated silently to the shadow of the railing, waiting for an opportunity to retreat.You can't be too cautious in this line of work!

After making sure that there was no noise inside, Yang Yi quietly pushed the door open and entered.

Inside the door, Baiqisi's scimitar, which had been held up for a long time, was directly placed on Yang Yi's neck...

"Boy! You are a bit unlucky today!"
