Chapter 76

Tian An is over 40 years old. He worshiped Emperor Jiajing's accompanying eunuch Huang Jin as his adoptive father. Feng Bao, Zhang Cheng and others all have a close relationship with Huang Jin.This Tian An followed the right path of the inner study. In the second year of Wanli, he became a supervisor of ceremonies and served as a chaperone.

The inner court was treacherous and treacherous, but at the level of the supervisor of ceremonies, everyone had the demeanor of a high-ranking official who was hesitant to speak.

After Zhang Cheng reprimanded these few sentences, he stopped talking and looked at the book by himself. Tian An stood there with a pale face, not knowing whether he should sit down or stand up.

Whether it was the eunuch next to him or the busy little eunuch, they were all busy after a glance, but everyone felt a little pity for Tian An in their hearts.

I don't know who Tian An offended. After today's reprimand, this job will definitely not be kept.

The sun outside had already risen very high, and the capital began to get busy.

The urgent errand that Zou Yi mentioned was not an official business. He hurried to South Street after he came out of the Shuntian government office. It is the remedy.

Those who are a little more alert can feel Zou Yi's alienation from Wang Tong these days. If he suddenly warms up again, it will make people feel awkward.

Zou Yi, the new Superintendent of the Four Battalions of the Royal Horse Supervisor, Longxiang Left Guard, understands this truth very well. He just came to visit politely. He made an appointment with Wang Tong in the afternoon, and went to the martial arts hall in the back to see those who came to learn martial arts. where the children live, and then say goodbye politely.

When Zou Yi came, Wang Tong and his party had just seen He Jinyin's body from there, and also found the house where he was hiding. After sending Zou Yi away, everyone began to discuss.

"retribution!!"

Ma Sanbiao and a few straightforward ones said excitedly, and even Mrs. Ma, who was taking care of Zhao Jinliang inside, couldn't help saying "serve it".

Li Hutou, who woke up abnormally in the morning, was in a much better condition after his clothes and short spear were burned. Li Wenyuan was silent for a while after seeing He Jinyin's wound. After returning to the main room, he patted Li Hutou approvingly. head, said nothing.

Wang Tong didn't know how to examine the wound, but looking at He Jinyin's wound, the scene of Li Hutou stabbing the wooden sign with a short spear always appeared in his mind.

"Eunuch Zou's visit, do you feel more confident in your heart?"

Can obviously feel the relaxed atmosphere in the room, Wang Tong couldn't help but joked, Zhang Shiqiang beside him is an old man, he whispered beside him:
"He Jinyin is only in charge of this small gambling house, but it involves so many actions from all parties. Although the person is dead, the next thing will definitely not be easy. The adults must be careful."

"Now that things have happened, I have to make some things clear to everyone. Whether it is the Zhao family or this He Jinyin place, the Sanyang Buddha has been found. This matter must be related to the Sanyang Sect, but I don't know what the Sanyang Sect is. What kind of ability is there to use such a big relationship..."

After asking this question, everyone in the room looked at each other, and after a while Sun Dahai scratched his head and said:
"I don't see why it's so strange. Those who believe in this on Niulan Street are all nameless, the most despicable bunch of bastards..."

"Nameless White?"

Regarding Wang Tong's question, everyone was not surprised. This little adult has a very thorough understanding of some things, but he doesn't understand some common sense. This may be what a child prodigy Su Hui should be like.

"In the second year of Wanli, a group of eunuchs were recruited into the palace. Many idiots who wanted to be rich cut themselves off. They wanted to enter the palace to try to be rich. But there are so many people in the palace, and they can't enter the palace if they are eunuchs. If you can't even find a job, using eunuchs as errands in the prime minister's family is also a serious crime of confiscating the family and exterminating the family. What's more, those businessmen, these people have the strength to steal and rob, and those who have no strength just beg there for a living. Unaccounted for eunuchs are all called Wumingbai, there are quite a few inside and outside the city, but they often worship this Sanyang Buddha..."

The more it was said, the more complicated it became. It was just a small case to pursue justice, but unexpectedly, it involved more and more things. Just as someone wanted to speak, Mrs. Ma came out to chase them away.

"All go to the restaurant in front to stay. Xiao Liang was in pain last night, just fell asleep, and was woken up by the loud voices of you guys, get out, get out."

A group of people smiled and walked into the restaurant, where there were already guys cleaning and tidying up. The fire in the stove had not been extinguished since it was lit in the morning, but it was still warm.

As soon as he walked in, Li Wenyuan grabbed Wang Tong and said in a low voice:

"My lord, since Zhao Jinliang is already disabled and he is such a young child, he should be sent to the palace. My lord is also familiar with the father-in-law in the palace."

Wang Tong nodded, presumably Li Wenyuan said this only after hearing the introduction from Wuming Bai just now, looking at it now, this is the only way out for Zhao Jinliang.

While he was talking, there was a commotion outside, but the pushing officer Lu Wancai, Wang Si, and Li Gui walked in, and when he opened the door, he could see many people dressed as policemen standing outside.

As the cotton curtain fell, Lu Wancai hurriedly stepped forward and clasped his fists to salute, while Wang Si and Li Gui knelt on the ground and kowtowed a few times before standing up.

Seeing Shangguan understand that Lu Wancai was doing this, the two arrests were even more solemn. Thinking about Zou Yi's visit with a smile on his face, and looking at the big gifts of these people, Wang Tong also realized it, and asked with a smile:

"Master Lu, the official has been reinstated, Wang Si Li Gui, you have been promoted to the top of the class."

"If it weren't for Lord Wang's face, how could we have such luck for our brothers. From now on, if the Lord says a word, our brothers will not frown in water or fire."

The dismissal and reinstatement brought Lu Wancai closer to Wang Si, Li Gui and others. They naturally knew the reason for this repetition. Now their position is very correct. Tong is the sky above their heads.

After a few polite words, Wang Tong asked:
"Master Lu, you bring so many police officers?"

"If Mr. Wang thinks highly of me, don't call him Mr. Brother Lu. These arresting officers are for investigation?"

"What else is there to investigate? Isn't He Jinyin dead?"

Wang Tong was surprised. The tragedy of the Zhao family was forced to death by He Jinyin who set up a plot to seek money. Since He Jinyin died, the case will be closed. Maybe there are indeed many unexplainable things behind it, but Wang Tong didn't want to With so much involved, it is one aspect to be loyal to one's duty, and another is not to overstep one's duty.

It's so complicated, it might be a disaster if it goes any further...

"Your Excellency, don't you know that Eunuch Zhang Cheng and Eunuch Zhang in the palace sent Eunuch Zou to the Yamen of Shuntian Mansion this morning to ask for accountability and urge a thorough investigation of the case."

Seeing Wang Tong's expression, Lu Wancai thought he understood the other party's meaning, took a step back and said with a smile:

"Since Eunuch Zhang has expressed this meaning, the whole Shuntian Mansion will naturally have to investigate. There is nothing wrong with your lord. I will lead the people to investigate. If there is a mistake, I hope your lord will take care of it."

Wang Tong nodded silently, Lu Wancai led Wang Si and Li Gui to lift the curtain and was about to go out, but Wang Tong called out and said in a deep voice:
"If you find out any news, let me know at any time!"

"That's natural, sir, don't worry!!"

With Wang Tong's words, Lu Wancai's mind was settled, and he led the people out with high spirits.

Zhang Cheng wanted to attack a certain party through this time, Wang Tong wanted to give justice to the tragic death of the Zhao family, and Shuntian Mansion wanted to cope with the task. The three parties had different purposes and methods. However, the investigation was pushed forward farther and farther and deeper.

The yamen servants and catchers in Shuntian Mansion are almost all from the local local snakes in the capital.

Lu Wancai walked out of the delicious restaurant and went directly to the Jixiang Teahouse. He found a good seat in the teahouse and sat down. The yamen servants quickly scattered out, and the news spread one by one.

The guards went door-to-door to check and inquire about the houses in South Street and the surrounding streets. Wang Si led eight guards, accompanied by the guard Jin Yiwei, to search carefully in Juyifang and the back yard.

Professionals are indeed different. The search of the Shuntian Mansion's officers and guards in Juyifang opened Jin Yiwei's eyes. Everyone held a short stick in their hands and kept beating on the ground and walls of the gambling house and the back of the house. If the sound was slightly wrong, I dug a few times with a short knife and dagger.

Not long after, a cellar under the blue brick floor was found in the wing room of the gambling house. There were five large earthen jars sealed with oiled paper. They lay on the cellar door and punctured the oiled paper, revealing the white inside. The silver ingots are all like this. Wang Si didn't move, smashed the other four earthen jars with a wooden stick, and said with a smile:

"I found a jar of the thief's stolen goods. Carefully bring it up. This room is locked and sealed. Let's leave a brother and Jin Yiwei's brother to watch it together."

Everyone is old with errands, why don't they understand Wang Si's plan, several people struggled to move the crock pot out of the house, and carefully locked and sealed the door. happy look.

"...The dim sum shop once borrowed 15 taels of silver from He Jinyin, but now it has been turned into 50 taels..."

"...Zhenxing Building borrowed He Jinyin 50 taels, and now he has to pay back [-] taels a month. It has been two years..."

"...The three members of the Liu family borrowed money for their child's medical treatment. Last November, the whole family sold it to a gentry outside the city to pay off..."

"Sun's family in Peony Lane, the man lost the bet, the house and everything belong to He Jinyin, the woman will be sold to a brothel, and she will throw the child into the well..."

Lu Wancai used the lid of the tea bowl to stroke it, carefully took a sip of the scalding hot tea, his expression remained unchanged, but he was just a religious loan shark, so there was nothing to make a fuss about.

"My lord, my lord, cellars have been dug out from the casino and the backyard. One has 1000 taels of silver. In the backyard... twenty knives and axes, eleven spears, and a strong bow have been dug out. Two!!!”

Lu Wancai shook his hand, and the tea bowl fell to the ground.
