Chapter five hundred and ninetieth: these ten years (3)(1/2)

Zhu Yunwen was very thoughtful. Before this, he never expected that there would be such a cancer within the Ming Dynasty. They colluded with the Japanese and used the Jiangnan Chamber of Commerce as a guise to make money and clean up other chambers of commerce. This collusion with scum of foreign tribes was simply unforgivable.

Zhu Yunwen looked inside the house and said, "Search to see if there is any useful thing, Gu Xiao, let's go out and see where this is."

Zhu Yunwen was still a little lucky. If he hadn't found the secret passage under the dry well, the thieves would have escaped.

Gu Xiao accompanied Zhu Yunwen and opened the door. He was the same as the house next to Yongqing Gang. It was also a small courtyard. I guess these people rented it with the same method.

"Your Majesty, do you need to interrogate these thieves?" Wang Biao asked behind his back.

Zhu Yunwen nodded and said, "Bring it up."

When Wang Biao got the order, he returned to the house and brought someone out. The man shouted "Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh

Wang Biao knocked the hilt of the sword hard on the man's chin. The man squatted down in pain with his chin, but his chin was also cured.

Zhu Yunwen turned his back to him, "Name."

"..." The man was unwilling to speak.

Zhu Yunwen said lightly, "One hand."

Wang Biao sneered, and he kicked the man's arm completely ruined with all his strength.

"Ah!!!!" The man fainted from the severe pain.

"Wake him up."

Wang Biao gestured to the Jinyiwei beside him. After a while, the Jinyiwei walked out with a basin of water, and then he poured the water on the man.

The man woke up slowly, and this time he was completely scared.

"name?"

"My name is Hu Si."

Wang Biao glared at the man and shouted, "If you ask me to answer, please answer quickly. Do you want your other hand?"

Hu Si shivered, and he realized that these Jinyiwei were not good at slaughtering.

Zhu Yunwen said, "Hu Si, you are very lucky because I was the one who tried you. If they were the one who tried you, it would be better than death. Now, I will ask you and answer you. If you don't say it, you will be ruined. At worst, we can replace the next one. As long as you answer well, I can forgive you for your death penalty."

Hu Si was stunned. Hearing this tone, the identity of the person who turned his back to him in front of him was probably not simple.

"What are you doing when you come to Yingtian?"

............

"Of course." Zhu Yunwen pondered for a moment and said, "Old man, my surname is He."

To Zhu Yunwen's surprise, Zhou Li said calmly, "I know."

Zhu Yunwen was stunned and then relieved. People of his age like Zhou Li had already developed a pair of eyes that had insight into everything.

Zhou Huanling looked at Zhu Yunwen in confusion. She was still happy that Zhu Yunwen was willing to marry her, but now she was confused. Her elder brother He, isn't his surname He?

Zhu Yunwen looked at Zhou Li and Zhou Huanling apologetically, "When I woke up at first, I couldn't be sure you were enemies or friends, so I could only choose to use another name, Mr. Huanling, forgive me."

Zhou Li said with understanding, "You should be careful when you go out, and I don't mean to blame you."

"Then...what are you calling, brother?" Zhou Huanling asked.

Zhu Yunwen smiled and said, "My real name is Zhu Yunwen."

"Zhu Yunwen." Zhou Huanling said, "It's a nice name. Then I will call you Brother Zhu in the future, hehe."

Zhu Yunwen was speechless. What a big brother, he is no more than Zhou Huanling.

Zhou Huanling lives in the countryside all year round, so he naturally doesn't know the meaning of the name Zhu Yunwen, but Zhou Li, who has experienced it, is quite clear.

The name of today's son is Zhu Yunwen.

Who dared to take the risk of beheading the emperor? Moreover, Zhu Yunwen was only twenty years old and was very happy to go out. When he recalled his dress and demeanor when he saved this young man, Zhou Li felt confident.

Zhou Li felt his heart beat faster, which was something he rarely experienced in his decades, "You...you are..."

This is so incredible, how could I come here today?

If you want to continue thinking, then the two stunning beauties who live in Zhou Huanling's house are the concubines in the harem.

Zhu Yunwen nodded, "Yes, the old man is right."

Zhou Li rolled up his sleeves and wanted to kneel down to salute. Zhu Yunwen hurriedly stepped forward and dragged him and said, "You are polite, I said that you will repay your life-saving grace."

"I...I..." Zhou Li said in surprise, "I just thought there was a noble man, but I didn't expect it to be..."

.........

Zhu Yunwen asked Zhu Bing in a low voice, "Why is there no one in this jade pavilion?"

Zhu Bing replied, "To be honest, the things in this jade pavilion cannot be considered high-quality. The things are better than here. There are more things in Xi'an. You won't come if you want to buy them, and you won't come if you don't want to buy them. You will naturally have fewer people, so this jade pavilion is more of a tool used by Cao Buchun to show his rights."

So that's it. Zhu Yunwen understood that the street opposite the Jade Pavilion was Qingfeng Restaurant. Now the prefect of Xi'an is not responsible. If Cao Buchun wants to establish his authority in Xi'an, he naturally has to take some special measures.

"Then what's the relationship between this Jade Pavilion and Qingfeng Restaurant?" Zhu Yunwen asked casually.

Zhu Bing's heart moved. Isn't this just asking himself about the relationship between Cao Buchun and Jiang Ruozhi?

Zhu Bing pondered for a moment and said, "It's not very good, it can even be said to be bad." Zhu Bing did not point out that it was those two people, but Zhu Yunwen still knew it.

"Your Highness of the Yin King, the seventh floor has arrived." The entertainer smiled slightly and made a gesture to the Yin King.

Zhu Bing said to Zhu Yunwen, "Brother Zhu, come up and take a look at the most exquisite and luxurious building in this jade pavilion."

Zhu Yunwen was also a little curious. He wanted to know what the seventh floor of this jade pavilion looked like.

Zhu Bing also lived in Yingtian Palace, where every palace was designed by craftsmen for a lot of effort. It can be said that there is no second place in this world that is more magnificent than Yingtian Palace.

How amazing the seventh floor of the Yuge Pavilion that can make people like Zhu Bing admire.

To Zhu Yunwen's surprise, there was no place on the seventh floor of Yuge Pavilion.

The entire large space of hundreds of square meters was empty, and Zhu Yunwen thought there would be some decorations, but unfortunately, there was really nothing.

"Is this the top floor of Yu Pavilion?" If Zhu Bing hadn't said it confidently, Zhu Yunwen would have thought Zhu Bing was teasing him.

Zhu Bing smiled mysteriously, "I thought so when I came here, Brother Zhu, come by the window."

Zhu Yunwen followed Zhu Bing inexplicably to the window. He found that although there was nothing on the top floor of the jade pavilion, the gap between the windows was extremely small. It can be said that the top floor of the jade pavilion was surrounded by windows.

Zhu Bing came to the window and said, "Brother Zhu, don't open the window, just look like this."

Zhu Yunwen walked to the window. There was a layer of thin paper in the center of such a large wooden window. When you looked away, you could not see the paintings on the thin paper. You could only see it when you were close. The thin paper turned out to be Xi'an City.

............

Zhu Yunwen put down the teacup in his hand, then stood up and left the sixth floor, and arrived at the entrance of Qingfeng Restaurant. He greeted the guards, then confirmed the direction and rushed towards it.

Before Zhu Yunwen left, Jiang Ruozhi came out.

"Master!" said the guard's soldier respectfully.

Jiang Ruozhi nodded and said to the soldiers, "I forgot something in the mansion. Now I have to pick it up, so I will leave first." After that, Jiang Ruozhi went to Jiang's mansion without waiting for the soldiers to react. There was already a carriage waiting for him on the side of the road.

The soldiers didn't find anything strange. They looked at each other and continued to guard the door.

When Zhu Yunwen crossed a street, Wang Biao and Gu Xiao appeared at the same time. Gu Xiao said in a deep voice, "Emperor, something happened."

"I know." Zhu Yunwen said, "What the hell is going on, let me briefly talk about it."

Gu Xiao organized a speech and said, "We have been keeping a close eye on the goods in Yihonglou. Tonight, I found that they had set off, so I followed them all the time, and finally stopped them when they were about to leave the city, but...the goods were ordinary tea and porcelain!"

"Tea and porcelain?" Zhu Yunwen frowned and said, "Have you checked it clearly?"

"The check is clear." Wang Biao said disgustedly, "and this time we put our plan on the surface. After Xie Ling, the boss of Yihongyuan, learned the news, killed five of our Jinyiwei and fled."

"Impossible, the goods that Xie Ling wants to protect for the death cannot be that simple." Zhu Yunwen said with a narrow eye, "And his killings meant that he had completed the plan at that time, that is, the goods were elsewhere!"

Gu Xiao agreed, "I think so too, but now Xie Ling is gone, all the clues are cut off. We don't have enough manpower to search the whole city at all."

Zhu Yunwen took a few steps in his hand, and a flash of inspiration flashed in his mind. The guard said that the prefect Jiang and Xie Ling had talked about the issue of goods trading, which means that the prefect Jiang would help Xie Ling transport goods, but the convoy that Gu Xiao and the others stopped did not have the prefect's pass. Now Xie Ling fled unless...

Zhu Yunwen looked at Gu Xiao, "Where did you stop the goods?"

Gu Xiao said without hesitation, "Ximen, they seem to be heading towards Jiangnan."

............

"Your Majesty, should we go to Zhoujia Village?" Gu Xiao asked with his fists.

"Yeah." Zhu Yunwen replied, "Let's go now."

Gu Xiao bowed and asked, "Master, do you want to arrange a carriage to return to Beijing?"

"You can arrange it." Zhu Yunwen said, "You go and tell Lan Yu that he will stay in Xi'an first, and wait until I return to Beijing to arrange Yang Lian and others to come over and come back."

Gu Xiao understood Zhu Yunwen’s thoughts, and he nodded, “I understand the emperor, then I’ll go down and prepare first.”

"Go."

When Gu Xiao left, he closed the door very carefully.

Zhu Yunwen looked at Zhu Meier with a squinted look, "Isn't it fun?"

Zhu Meier said with a smile, "It's really fun."
