Chapter 320 Undercurrent in the South
The river is vast and flows eastward.
For many wealthy families in Lin'an City, the funeral that has been busy recently has been a busy event.
The Tang Sect caused chaos overnight in the Xiayuan Festival. Although the prepared Imperial City and Lin'an Mansion were suppressed in a very short time, in such a small loophole, those who were desperate could still cause great damage.
More than ten high-ranking gates were broken into, murdered and set fire, killing many people.
Among them, the former deputy envoy of the Yangtze River system was established, and now the new Jinghu system was the most serious in the family of Jia Sidao.
That night, the Jia family happened to be gathering to light lamps. Dozens of people in the family were happily in the yard, watching the rare fireworks sent by Concubine Jia from the palace. It was like a group of sheep gathered together, swallowing them up by the wolves that broke in.
Even Jia Zheng, the head of the Jia family, had a few sons and nephews who were in their prime, as well as more servants and maids, who were slaughtered and killed, and were in a dark and ignited manner. Those who broke in could not tell who was who they were. They would kill them if they were caught. Anyway, as long as they were in this house, they would not be killed wrongly.
In the bloody storm, Jia Sidao miraculously took off his body. Although he suffered some injuries and bleeding on his arm, he was diagnosed with the doctor and had some skin injuries. After some medicine was applied.
So now he can stand in front of a large number of spiritual cards without any qualifying, and sacrifice with a sacrificial face with a blue face.
Incense tributes to three pillars and bows three times.
Then he left, leaving a group of monks chanting scriptures to save the dead souls in the Buddhist temple. Jia Sidao came to another yard separated by a wall and sat in the flower hall. There were already several people waiting for him, all of whom were guests of the Jia family. When he saw him coming in, he bowed to say hello together.
There were several walls here from the yard where the murder occurred that night. Jia Sidao had sent someone to sweep the lime carefully and repaint the walls and redecorate them. After all, there were so many people dead, and the yin energy was heavy.
Sitting in the flower hall, away from the suffocating sandalwood smell in the Buddhist hall, smelling the fragrance of freshly built tea leaves, Jia Sidao's gloomy face slightly regained a little color, but it was faint, and there was always a bloody smell rushing into his nose. Jia Sidao frowned and looked around, thinking that this house was not suitable for living anymore, so he should go out early and choose another good place to live.
"Tell me," he picked up the teacup and took a sip: "Don't fool me with the words of the official, otherwise no one will get the money."
Several guests looked at each other, and a middle-aged man with a beard smiled and flattered, "Where can it be? No one dares to scare Lord Jia. Such a big thing will cause death."
"Just know." Jia Sidao put down the teacup.
The bearded beard turned around and said in a low voice: "We have been inquiring outside for a few days, asked the captain who led the team that night, and also asked the Kuaishou yamen runners who were doing the specific work. They also had dinner, drank, drank, and made up their chores, and found countless ways to get some news."
He paused when he said this and secretly looked at Jia Sidao, thinking that Jia Sidao would say something, but found that the adult had a stern face and didn't say a word, so he had to continue talking bored.
"That night, Yousi did get the news in advance and made arrangements, otherwise he would not have reacted so quickly. As soon as the thieves took action, the soldiers in the city came out immediately."
"But although they are on guard, they probably have insufficient time to rebel against the thieves. I heard from the head of the Lin'an Prefecture that they were drunk and they had some thoughts among the thieves. They knew that they wanted to rebel and rebellion. They were scheduled to be in the days after the Xiayuan Festival. At that time, autumn grain from all over the country entered Beijing and went to the granaries in various places to set a fire, which had a much greater impact than killing noble people."
Jia Sidao snorted in his nose, touched his head with a slight correction, and made some uncomfortable: "This, killing noble people will have a greater impact and greater impact."
He continued: "But someone revealed the news to the thieves. The thieves knew that the court was prepared, so they immediately took action in advance, caught Lin'an Prefecture and the Imperial City Division off guard, and then they made this shocking bloody case."
The coldness on Jia Sidao's face became more and more intense. After he finished talking nonsense, his face was as cold as a piece of ice. Even if the brightest sun outside shone in, it would not melt this hard expression.
"Who told me the secret? Have you asked clearly?" Jia Sidao's words seemed to have a chilling feeling.
The beard couldn't help but shivered and shrank his neck: "I don't know yet. People in Lin'an Prefecture and the Imperial City Department were also in panic. I can't find out who leaked the news."
"These bunch of food!" Jia Sidao was furious and instantly changed from a cold iceberg to an erupting volcano. He slapped the table and stood up: "Liang Ruyuan and Wang Deqian are two bastards! They are incompetent and misleading! The official family just cut their officials, which is not enough!"
"I have died so many people in my family and such a big mess. Can I afford to pay for the black hats of his two men? Ah~!"
Several guests were frightened by the rage, and took a step back together, silent as if they were not even afraid to make a sound.
Jia Sidao hummed in his nose, walked back and forth several times in the room, and finally stopped "snapping" and fixed in front of the mustache.
He pointed his fingers on the mustache's nose, and his saliva almost splashed on the mustache's forehead.
"Go, go and investigate again! It doesn't matter how much money you spend. As long as you can find out, I will reward a thousand gold if anyone reveals the news to the rioters!" Jia Sidao roared, and his voice was like thunder: "No matter who it is, kill him! Put your head here, I want to use this person's head to sacrifice to my family for a grudge!"
"Yes, yes, I understand, I understand, let's go now!" Several guests were urinating. The first time they saw Jia Sidao looking like a mad dog, they were frightened and their legs were weak, and they bent over and slipped out.
Jia Sidao clenched his fists and sat on the chair, took a few breaths, and his mood slowly calmed down.
The excitement just now, the dancing of the arms, pulled the wound on the left shoulder, and a burst of hidden pain. It was injured by the opponent's long knife when he killed the last man in black on the night of the Xiayuan Festival.
The wound hurts, so I remember the incident that night and the knife in the man in black.
Thinking of the man in black, he thought something.
That kind of knife is not common. It is a close-fitting knife with a short blade and a very narrow blade. It is more common in Sichuan. Only high-quality iron ore in the mountains of Sichuan and Yunnan, combined with the best blacksmith's calcination technology, can create this kind of knife with a narrow blade, thin blade, but sharp and hard blade.
It seems that this kind of knife is called the Tang Tai sword, which is a style passed down from the Tang Dynasty. There are very few equipment among the official army of the Song Dynasty.
A spark exploded in his memory.
It seems that when I was confronting Wang Kui, Changsun Hong and others at the Ezhou Wharf that night, I saw someone holding such a knife among the other guards.
The spark exploded and slowly rose.
Jia Sidao sat in the chair for a long time that day, and seemed to be thinking about it all the time. No one knew what he was thinking.
