Jinyi Music

Chapter 415

Mou Biao went to the yamen early in the morning of the second day, and Si Lian changed her clothes and went out, because the new house had already been tidied up, and today she just brought her daily necessities to go out, and she went to see her before she left. Mrs. Liu, Mrs. Liu smiled when she saw her coming,

"If you go out to serve Lao Ba, I will naturally not stop you, but after a while your second sister-in-law is going to give birth, you will come back!"

Silian smiled and said,
"It's just that Ba Ye lives there for a few days when he is busy with business. If the errands in the yamen are done quickly, the daughter-in-law may come back in a few days!"

Mrs. Liu seemed to have heard a bit of wind, and sighed after hearing the words,
"I'm afraid it's not so fast!"

Then he told her,
"You live outside by yourself, remember to be cautious in your words and deeds, and be careful about the door!"

"Yes!"

Four lotuses blessed each other, bid farewell to Mrs. Liu and left the Mou Mansion, but met Jin Zhu at the gate, Jin Zhu smiled and offered a box,
"Madam Eighth Young Master, this is from your aunt!"

Si Lian received it with a blushing face, got into the carriage and went to Mao'er Alley. Along the way, Si Lian held the box but dared not open it.

In the courtyard of the third entry, Silian brought the four maids and Liu Xing, Mama Wang, two wives who were rough envoys, and the gatekeeper. The only servants were Mou Long and Mou Hu, and Wang Erhu who was doing rough work. Mou Biao felt that there were fewer available men, so he brought two young men from the mansion, one named You Bao and the other Ba Jin. The two young men were not very old, but they were very clever. On the contrary, Si Lian liked it very much.

On the day they passed, Mou Biao went home to eat during lunch, and after eating two Dongpo elbows that were full of oil and water, Mou Biao couldn't help but rubbed his stomach and sighed,
"Finally, I can have a decent meal!"

The food in the yamen is enough to take care of the stomach. As for whether it tastes good or not, that is not something that the cooks in the Fusi yamen in Beizhen will care about!

Silian laughed,

"It's not as unbearable as you said, have you never eaten the food in the yamen?"

When Jia Jincheng was in Beizhen Fusi, she also ate the food in the yamen once. Although I dare not say that the food is delicious, but there are meat and vegetables. Compared with the yamen in the capital, it is not bad!

Mou Biao shook his head,

"You only eat it once, if you eat it every day like me, you will know the taste!"

laughed again,
"But now that Silian is here, I don't need to eat that pig food. From now on, I will eat breakfast, lunch and dinner at home!"

This place is only a few steps away from the yamen. After breakfast, stroll to the yamen with hands behind your back, and you can still catch up with the morning practice!
Silian laughed,

"it is good!"

So in the evening, Si Lian personally cooked another pot of stewed meat. When Mou Biao came back, he ate five bowls of rice before he was satisfied. So Mou Biao could go home with three meals a day, and Si Lian didn't need it. Morning and evening are peaceful, life is really much lighter than living in the mansion, the young couple are very satisfied with their lives.

Although the life of Mou Biao's family is good, the errands in the yamen are getting more and more busy. Sometimes they rush back to have dinner, and then go to the yamen again to interrogate the prisoners overnight. There are more and more people, and the big men in the court finally couldn't sit still. Because there was an accident in the palace, it was the emperor's family matter. More and more, it is no longer the relatives of the royal family who receive the driving stickers, but there are already many officials in the court!
"What is your majesty trying to do?"

"Does Your Majesty want to imitate Taizu Taizong and persecute all the officials in the court?"

I think that when Taizu was an official, when he went out, his family members had to see him off in front of the door. Every time he went to court, it was like going to the execution ground. He had to say goodbye to his family members in tears. There were those families who heard Jin Yiwei came, and the young and old in the family immediately changed into clothes. Sitting in white plain clothes, waiting for the Jin Yiwei to come and take him into custody, even after so many years, it is still an official's nightmare.

"Jin Yiwei abused his power, wronged the innocent, took the opportunity to amass wealth, and killed officials..."

The censors' papers flew onto Emperor Hongzhi's desk like snowflakes. Emperor Hongzhi sneered at the sight, but he said to Li Guangdao beside him,

"Tell me... how many people here belong to the prince, and how many of these officials are covering for the prince?"

Openly impeaching Jin Yiwei, but secretly telling him that the emperor should stop!
What are they afraid of, are they aware that they have found the East Palace, and are they afraid that if they continue to investigate, they will implicate the real person behind the scenes?

Li Guang's back felt cold when he heard this, and he bowed and said,

"Your Majesty, the servants are servants in the palace, and they don't know anything about government affairs. The servants... don't know..."

Emperor Hongzhi smiled,
"I don't know... I don't know! I'm afraid I know too much..."

Li Guang lowered his head and didn't dare to answer, so he listened to Emperor Hongzhi talking to himself,
"He is just afraid, afraid that I will continue to investigate..."

Jin Yiwei is the emperor's lackey, all the officials dare not scold the emperor, scolding Jin Yiwei is one set after another, and for three consecutive days, the officials in the court have been impeaching Jin Yiwei for being domineering and domineering, making the whole capital panic, Mou Bin's side is as immovable as a mountain, and Mou Biao's leaders still grab them as they should, and those who give away the driving stickers are relentless!

So the whole capital city was full of gossip, officials had to look left and right when they went out, for fear that there would be Jin Yiwei standing in front of the door, Mrs. Liu was controlling everyone in the mansion and could not leave the mansion at will, and she herself reduced socializing. Si Lian still lived in seclusion, but The person she sent to watch Guan Zhu was talking back and forth,

"Madam Eighth Young Master, the two of you have been staring at that Guan Zhu for the past few days, and finally figured out what that kid is doing!"

Si Lian raised her eyebrows when she heard the words,

"What is he doing?"

"Guan Zhu, that kid, always goes out in the middle of the night and returns at dawn. He doesn't go out every night. He always goes out every five or six days... The younger ones have followed him five times, and he seems to be still there." The accomplices all made an appointment to meet near the Earth Temple in the south of the city, and then wandered around the city with sacks, sticks, ropes, etc., looking for the single person to beat the sap..."

Silian was shocked,

"Has he committed such a crime?"

"Back to Mrs. Ba Shao, that's right! There are quite a few homeless people in this capital city, and many foreigners who came to Beijing, fell down for various reasons, and became homeless on the streets. To attack this kind of people, the little ones followed them five times, and saw them succeed twice, once they beat a beggar for food, and once they beat a gambler who lost money..."

Silian frowned tightly,

"They beat those people to sap, and what did they do after that?"

The two looked at each other, and one of them replied,
"The little ones didn't know either. They knocked people unconscious, packed them in sacks, carried them on their backs for a while, and then put them on the carriage. There were only two of them, and they chased them for a while at night. , and lost it!"

They are just ordinary servants of the Mou Mansion, and they don't have any kung fu, so it's not surprising that they can't catch up with the carriage!
Silian nodded and rewarded the two of them with five taels of silver each.
"You've worked hard these days, so you won't have to keep an eye on this person in the future!"

The two took the reward and retreated, Si Lian said to Wang Mama who was beside her,

"It seems that this matter needs to be done by my mother!"

Mama Wang nodded and said,

"Why does this old slave feel that this method is similar to that of the gang of kidnappers?"

Silian also nodded,
"I also feel that this way of beating Sap is very similar to the Kidnap Gang. Could it be that the Kidnap Gang is making a comeback?"

Could it be that seeing the recent chaos in Beijing and China, they came back to fish in troubled waters?
"Also ask mom to keep an eye on that Guan Zhu tonight and see where they got him?"

Mama Wang nodded, and she went out after nightfall. When Mou Biao came back and did not see Mama Wang, she asked about it. Si Lian told Mu Biao about it, and Mou Biao frowned when he heard this.
"I've been too busy recently, and I can't spare any manpower to investigate this matter. You can ask Mama Wang to find out, but don't startle the snake!"

Now Jin Yiwei has sent all the staff in Beijing to investigate the case, and even the Tianjin Wei has transferred people over, so there is really no spare time at this time!

Silian nodded,

"I see!"

Mama Wang came back when the sky was getting dark the next day, her expression was a little dignified,
"Young Madam, I'm afraid it's really the kidnappers' gang that's revived. They knocked out a woman who went to the city to seek relatives last night. The old slave followed their carriage all the way to a house in the north of the city. The place was watched from the outside. It was an ordinary house, they carried people in through the back door, and the old slave sneaked in after a while, and after searching around, he could not find the captured woman..."

Silian was startled,
"I can't make it... What do you mean by that?"

Mother Wang said,

"The old slave reckons that there is probably a secret room or a secret passage under the house. Everything in the house outside is normal, and there is nothing strange at all. Also, the people in the house seem to be Lianjiazi. The old slave does not want to scare the snake. I dared to stay too long, so I didn't check carefully..."

Si Lian heard that her brows were almost pimples,
"Ba Ye also told me not to scare the snakes, but there are people missing in this capital from time to time, and the government doesn't notice it at all. If they are allowed to continue, I don't know how many people will suffer!"

Mama Wang nodded,
"The old slave also feels that this matter cannot be delayed!"

Don't be in a hurry, don't come in a hurry!

If they act rashly, at most they will capture Guan Zhu and seal the house. As long as they don't capture the leader, they can change places and set up a new stove to act again!
Thinking about it, last time with Jin Yiwei's ability, he couldn't eradicate the Kidnap Gang, let alone them!

After much deliberation, Si Lian couldn't think of a solution for a while, but what should be done is still to be done.

"Mom, you've been staring at that house for the past few days. I thought that if they captured someone and hid them in the house, they must find a way to send them out of the city. As long as you keep watching them, you will always be able to find someone to respond to." Who will belong to the next house? At this time, Ba Ye can't spare to take care of this matter, let's find out the news first, so that it will be convenient for Ba Ye to do things in the future!"
