Chapter 21 Wang Yongji's investigation into the case

Cang County, Hebei.

On the way to Cangxian, a team of people were moving forward with flags.

The way ahead was the Jinyiwei Liss, and there were many riding horses on both sides. Dongchang Actor walked behind the team with his waist knife. There were several carriages in the center of the team, and the carriages could tell at a glance that the cost was not low.

Many guards were riding on horses. When passers-by saw this scene, they all took them to both sides of the road.

Sitting in a carriage, Wang Yongji put down the curtain in his hand and sighed with great sorrow. It was not because this team of people was very disturbed. In fact, Wang Yongji discovered that these people were still very abide by the rules along the way.

Wang Yongji has no confidence in investigating the case. There are so many people who are so generous in investigating private salt. If you can find it, there will be ghosts.

Who are salt dealers? How could you easily catch them? It was not easy, but you still catch them like this.

Wang Yongji talked to Sun Piyang several times, but Sun Piyang always talked about him and didn't talk about it at all. The imperial envoy Cao Yikui, who was stern in his face, was talking all day long, and all the salt dealers were native chickens and tiles.

The people from the Dongchang and Jinyiwei were all even more unreliable. The Eunuch Wang from the Dongchang seemed to have not been out of the palace for many years. No matter where he went, he was interested in local food and always ran to taste it.

Xing Shangzhi, the thousand-family family of the Jinyiwei, was even more overwhelming. He was with Eunuch Wang next to him, and the two of them were talking and laughing along the way.

Last night, I actually said that I wanted to eat wild game. I scattered a lot of people to hunt, but only got a few rabbits. In the end, I bought two sheep from the common people. Even so, I really light a bonfire to eat roasted lamb legs at night.

Wang Yongji is really depressed. Are you sure you are the ones who handle the case?

Just when Wang Yongji sighed that his fate was not good, there was a sudden riot in front of him.

Wang Yongji was stunned. What's wrong? He walked all the way and dared to bump into the team before the people appeared. The car stopped at this time. Wang Yongji picked up the curtain and poked his head out to look out.

As a result, it was too far away from the front and there was nothing to see. Wang Yongji could only put down the curtain of the car helplessly.

"Sir, someone is here to repay me!" At this moment, the Jinyiwei who was driving the car lifted up the curtain of the car and said to Wang Yongji: "Sir, I said before that I found a private salt dealer. Do you want to come out and take a look?"

Wang Yongji was stunned. He discovered that the private salt dealer was a fool? Are private salt dealer a fool?

I won’t say that I walked the official road openly, but I even hit my own team. Are you trying to die? Wang Yongji didn’t believe it at all and jumped out of the carriage.

When Wang Yong drew down, the other people also came down. Sun Piyang had a stern face and could not see anything.

Eunuch Wang looked sleepy, and it can be seen that he was just napping in the car. He drank too much last night. Xing Shangzhi of the Jinyiwei looked excited and grabbed the Jinyiwei who came to report the news: "Did you find a private salt dealer?"

"Yes, sir, our ranger found a sneaky convoy in front of us."

"Ten carriages were loaded with cargo. When they saw our racquets, they wanted to run. When the racquets felt that something was wrong, they chased them and then intercepted them. The racquets found that the racquets were full of salt, so they could be concluded that these people were private salt dealers."

Xing Shangzhi laughed, touched his bald head and said, "Look, how lucky you are. Let's go and see what kind of virtue these private salt dealers look like."

Eunuch Wang curled his lips and said, "What's the good luck? This is the emperor's blessing. We have to protect the emperor and intercept private salt here. Xing Qianhu, do you think what our family said is right?"

Looking at the face of Eunuch Wang, Wang Yong was so tired that you said that, who dares to say something wrong!

Sure enough, Xing Shangzhi quickly smiled and said, "Yes, Eunuch Wang is right. Look at my broken mouth, it depends on the emperor's great blessings and the emperor's blessings, so that we can intercept the private salt dealers."

Wang Yongji was too lazy to look at their faces, and said directly: "Let's go ahead and take a look!"

In fact, Wang Yongji didn't believe anything at all intercepted the private salt dealer. It was probably because those people were so scared after seeing the Jinyiwei, so they turned around and ran away. Jinyiwei had no good reputation among the people and had long been demonized.

The imperial envoy Cao Yikui also nodded: "Yes, let's go ahead and take a look. I have already said that these private salt dealers are all native chickens and twelve dogs!"

Wang Yongji was speechless, how did the court choose you?

The group came to the front, and Wang Yongji indeed saw ten carriages. Each carriage was covered with sacks. Some of them had been taken down by the Jinyiwei. After the opening of the bag was opened, it was indeed full of salt.

Cao Yikui walked over, reached out and grabbed a handful, then stuck out his tongue and licked it: "It's true that it's private salt."

As he said that, he threw the salt in his hand back into the bag, turned to the Jinyiwei beside him and said, "Bring the person up to me. I ask them, "I will dare to sell private salt in broad daylight, do you want to do it?"

Wang Yongji was speechless. Who dared to admit that he was selling private salt? But he was also very curious about these people.

First of all, these people pulled salt and ran away when they saw the Jinyiwei. This is not like the official salt. But it is simple to say that they sell private salt, right? They were caught when they came to their door. How did this IQ do the transaction of private salt?

Not long after, the two of them were pressed up by the Jinyiwei, one was an old man in his fifties and the other was a young man in his twentysomething.

"I ask you, who are your surnames and names, where are you doing, and what kind of career?" Sun Piyang also stood up at this time and shouted loudly: "Why don't you come here quickly and wait for me to kill you?"

Wang Yongji looked at Sun Piyang, how did you become the left deputy censor of the Censorate? Your case is really unprofessional.

"Sir, the little old man Wang Lao Nian, this is my son Wang San, we are from Cang County." The old man kowtowed as he said: "We are driving the big carts, and the people in the convoy are from our same village."

"I ask you, why did you run away when you see the Jinyiwei?" Sun Piyang nodded and asked.

"Sir, we didn't run away, we were afraid. When we heard the sound of horse hooves, we thought it was a robber." Wang Lao Nian begged for mercy and said, "Sir, we didn't run away on purpose, please observe clearly!"

Sun Piyang nodded again: "Where did the salt in your car come from?"

"Sir, we don't know either!" Wang Lao Nian said with a grievance: "We are all driving big cars. We will give whatever employer asks us to give, and we dare not ask!"

Wang Yongji sighed, it was indeed like this, and this big misunderstanding may not end well.
