Chapter 324 The hostages of the kidnappers
Cai Jing has been working with Wang for some years. Although he is 20 years old now, he is also well-trained and calm at ordinary times. Suddenly, he saw Cai Jing coming in in such a panic for the first time. Wang's heart thumped and immediately thought that there would be foreign countries harassing Yongzhou so soon, but this The idea was immediately dispelled. If it was a military emergency, there should be Nan Jifeng's people to report, and it was not Cai Jing's turn to rush in in in such a panic.
Wang's face darkened: "Cai Jing, why are you panicked?"
Cai Jing slowed down. There was only Jiao Deyou in the house. He knew that Brother Jiao was the righteous brother of the ex-wife Yuexia, and he was also a brother with Wang. Of course, he was not an outsider. Cai Jing hurriedly said, "Your Majesty, didn't you ask me to inquire about the street gangster? That's not a gangster. He is not us at all. People from the Song Dynasty.
"For this, he is from Tibet, right?"
"Oh, how do you know that they colluded with the bandits, and the bandits also kidnapped a person. What should I do? If it's really hijacked that person, what can I do..." Cai Jingqian didn't answer, saying that while hiding his feet,
The robbers kidnapped people. Did they rob Gao Zhisheng away? Wang looked at Cai Jing. He was upset, but he thought that Gao Zhisheng had Zhang Ping, Wu Ling and Wa Zhuang secretly protected him. If there was any accident, these three people would come back immediately to inform him.
Jiao Deyou is not as calm as Wang. He stood up and held it back and forth. Cai Jing, who didn't know where to start: "Why don't they take you away? You can't understand what you say. ~ You stop, think about it and say it."
Being yelled at by Jiao Deyou, Cai Jingzheng. Although his head was still sweating, he was much calmer at this time. He gasped: "Your Majesty, I'd better talk about the passage from the beginning."
"Didn't you ask me to inquire about that man? I followed him and followed him to the Manchunyuan..." Cai Jing blushed. Listening to the name of the name Wang and Jiao Deyou, he knew that this was a place of Fengyue, and the one who could be named should still be a second-rate brothel, but at this time, no one was in the mood to joke and waited for Cai. Beijing goes on,
Cai Jing continued to say, "It turned out that they were not alone. In addition to that boy, there was a Taoist priest, and I also saw Ji Laqing with them. They went there to drink and have fun. At that time, I sat next to them, and there was only a gauze curtain in the middle. I was afraid that they would recognize me, so I called a few girls..." Cai Jing said that the voice was like a mosquito, and his face turned red,
"Bad boy, the prince asked you to find out, but you'd better have fun." Jiao Deyou sat back to his seat and said with a smile,
Cai Jing's face was red and white and hurriedly defended, "Brother Jiao, it's my first time to go to that place. Don't get in the way. I have something important to say. There were three people at first. I heard that Laqing called him a young master. I also wonder why Laqing is so respectful to this person, and then another person came, Ji Laqing. I introduced the man to the young master. When I introduced him, I vaguely heard that the person he called the young master seemed to be the prince of Tubo, and then the person who went there was surnamed Yang. I saw that he was wearing silk satin. I thought he was a big family here. I heard them say that Yang was a big business.
Wang Bian listened and frowned. There would be any business dealings between the local big family and the prince of Tubo, and a traitor who fled from Xixia to Dali appeared here. What's more, if the situation reported by Cai Jing is true, then it is another person of Miss Duan Su Xu. That's him. That's really wronged Miss Duan Su. If Gao Zhisheng knew about it, he would jump up in a hurry.
"I saw this situation. I just wanted to leave, but I heard them talking about you, the prince."
"Oh, what are you talking about me?"
"This..." Presumably these people didn't say anything good to Wang. Cai Jing hesitated and immediately said, "Your Majesty, don't worry about what they talk about you. I'll say something important quickly."
"If you go around in circles again, I will throw you into the well of the kitchen yard." Jiao Deyou is anxious to hear that the current matter is important enough. Is there anything more important?
"Oh, I heard from the man surnamed Yang that he came late today because he made a big business and delayed the time. He asked how much money he could make in this business today. The man surnamed Yang said: It depends on how much the king of Zhennan is willing to pay."
This matter has something to do with himself. Does he have something he wants in his hand, and Wang thought about it and thought that there was no one surnamed Yang in Yongzhou who had contacted him. "Go on." This time, Wang said,
Cai Jing sneered and then said, "At first, I thought they had business with the prince, and I was also anxious to come back, so I settled the wine and vegetable money and prepared to come out. I happened to hear two attendants surnamed Yang talking in the corridor. One said: Today's work is not easy to do. The boy caught is really stinky and hard, and he is beside him. The two familymen are quite good at fighting. Fortunately, our king is so powerful, and we have many people. Otherwise, we will have to let them run away today. On the other hand, we said that our king must give the king of Zhennan well. I don't think he can even control Yongzhou.
Wang was shocked when he listened. Did he really catch Gao Zhisheng? No, there were three people who followed Gao Zhisheng. How could it be two familymen?
"What else did you hear?"
"Your Majesty, I'm in a hurry to come back to report the news. As soon as I got to the gate of Manchun Garden, I saw the prime minister Gao entering the Manchun Garden..."
What a coincidence. Suddenly, a bodyguard quickly walked to the door: "Your Majesty, someone has sent you a letter."
"Take it." The king gave an order, and the bodyguard hurried in. Cai Jing took it and handed it to the king. The king waved his hand and turned down. The king opened the letter, and the expression on his face suddenly became serious. He looked at the letter in his hand for a long time. Wang put the letter on the desk,
"Your Highness~" Cai Jing shouted softly, and the king came to his senses. Cai Jing continued, "I saw the prime minister Gao, but the prime minister did not see me. I was afraid that the prime minister Gao would also collude with them, so I ran back to report the news."
It's not wrong to think so from Cai Jing's point of view, but Wang knew that if Gao Zhisheng had colluded with these people, he would not have borrowed Zhang Ping and others. "What time is it now?"
Jiao Deyou and Cai Kyoto didn't expect that Wang Bian would ask such a question at this time. Jiao Deyou replied, "Your Majesty, it's more than half of the time."
In the current words, it is between seven o'clock and nine o'clock in the evening. People work hard for a day, and the gate is ready to rest. The dog is guarding in front of the door. As soon as there is movement, it screams, so it is called "xu dog". More than half of the time is more than eight o'clock in the evening for modern people.
They looked at the king curiously and nervously, "Cai Jing, you go and invite Mr. Hou and General Zhe. In addition, you go to the inner house and tell your wife that I won't go back tonight and let her rest early." After Wang's instructions, Cai Jing was full of questions. When Jiao Deyou saw Wang's side looking at the letter on the table without saying a word, he asked curiously, "Brother, what happened? Why don't we take someone to copy the Manchun Garden and take these people back and ask, why don't we end it?"
Wang stood up and knocked on the letter on the desk with his finger: "Brother Jiao, look at what is written on the letter." After saying that, he let go of the bookcase and meditated in the room with his hands behind his back,
Jiao Deyou walked to the generous Nanmu case, reached out and took the letter and looked at it. His face was also solemn. This letter was a letter from a kidnapper, and the kidnapper was extremely bold. The letter wrote: There was a person in their hand, the king of Zhennan's brother Wang Page. Now the kidners asked the king of Zhennan to bring only two at most. A servant, Yu Haishi met in Manchun Garden to negotiate conditions, and the kidnappers made it very clear that if the prince did something and the people in Yongzhou could not leave the city before tomorrow, the brothers outside the city would be rude to the prince's brothers, but at the end, it was also written that if the king of Zhennan was timid and refused to show up. As the saying goes, they will leave something on the king of Zhennan as collateral. The title of the king of Zhennan should be handled by himself.
The kidnappers were so bold that they actually kidnapped the prince's people, and put forward such conditions. Less than three months after Wang's side came to Yongzhou, someone came to his door. Jiao Deyou's face was like ashes, and his lungs were about to explode: "It's unbearable, my lord, you give me a team of people. I went to Pingchun Garden and returned the king's page. I'm in your brother. We only know Wang Yu and Wang Yuanze. There is no king page.
Wang side smiled bitterly. He had an ominous foreboding in his heart, but he only speculated that Hou Shuxian and Zhe Kejun walked in one after another. Jiao Deyou greeted him: "Mr. Hou, General Zhe, look at this."
Both of them also took the letter and read it. Hou Shuxian frowned and asked for a long time, "Your Majesty, there is something strange about this matter. This page... Could it be some prince you know, and this Manchun Courtyard is the largest brothel in the local area, and foreign merchants often linger here. Now they let you Go to such a place..."
"This, you can not think about it for now. There is not much time now. Brother Jiao, go back and prepare for the opening of a bank in Yangzhou according to our plan. Mr. Mr. Hou, I will go to Manchunyuan with Brother Zhe later. I don't know what will happen now. You should immediately investigate a few things. First, the situation of the bandits in Yongzhou, let the state government I have reported the robbery cases in recent years. The second is that you find a way to check the Manchunyuan. I think they chose this place for no reason.
"Okay, my lord, what else do you want me to tell you?"
The king walked to the desk and wrote two words on the paper with a pen: "Mr. Hou, look." The ancients wrote vertically, but the two words next to the king were written horizontally from left to right. Hou Shuxian looked down at the paper on the table, and his chin was about to fall on the table.
"Mr. Hou, do you know that this matter may be very important? Remember, except for a few of us, as long as the robbers don't make a rumor, we must not move blindly."
Zhe Kejun and Jiao Deyou also looked at the words on the table. Several people looked the same as panic. Only the king knew that he only speculated that he secretly prayed that his speculation was wrong. In short, the person who came must not be Yuan Ze. Yuan Ze had just passed a letter to him. At this time, Yuan Ze had just arrived in the capital and was ready to prepare To get the reputation, and the two words he wrote horizontally, of course, were Wang Page, "Is it really him?"
