Soon, the two groups of people fought together, and suddenly the flames were splashing, the swords and swords were shadowing, and the three of Zhu Cihong could retreat, but they were far away, showing a very frightened look.

Seeing this, the father and son of the Jiang family also lightened their suspicions about the three of them a lot in their hearts, just like this, where can they collude with so many people to steal things.

However, his face was still ugly, it was obvious that the guards of the Jiang family were not the opponents of this group of black-clothed people, and they were beaten and retreated, Jiang Zongshang looked at the burden carried by these black shadow people, and gritted his teeth angrily, this is the property that his Jiang family has accumulated for generations, I don't know how many of them, rare treasures.

"Give it to me

!" "I can't let one go

!" Jiang Zongshang looked at the guards who kept retreating, his heart was furious, and he shouted: "Are the officers and soldiers of the government here?"

"It's not here yet

!" "Hurry up and urge!" Jiang

Zongshang looked at a few black-clothed people who escaped, and he was really anxious to jump to his feet.

"Childe, what should we do?"

Li Ruolian looked at the scuffle in front of him and asked, "Standing here, I feel a little ......"

People were robbed, and they didn't help as guests, so they looked at it, and they were seen by the Jiang family's father and son, would it be a little embarrassing.

"It doesn't matter, Yangzhou is done, just go to Nanjing Qian Qianyi to build a bridge, the Jiang family is not important, the Jiang family's connections in Nanjing are nothing more than some businessmen, Qian Qianyi's connections are all gentry and officials, so businessmen naturally follow these two groups."

Zhu Cihong saw that Sun Hao left with someone, and his heart was also relaxed, the Jiang family's account book was obtained, so the smuggling tumor in Yangzhou was a lamb to be slaughtered, who he wanted to keep, who to use, in a word.

Jiang Zongshang saw more and more black-clothed people escaping, and the whole person sat directly on the ground in despair, and only rushed towards the basement after a while.

"Roaring !!"

Not long after, a roar suddenly came from the gate of the rockery, and it felt that Zhu Cihong and the three of them could hear it from afar, and Jiang Zongshang was really heartbroken.

This kind of person loves money, and for people who love money, their vaults have been ransacked, it must be heart-wrenching, and I am afraid it will be worse than the death of a son.

For example, Zhou Kui, the national ruler, loves money more than everything, including his own children.

"What about the bandits!"

After a while, Lord Tang, the prefect of Yangzhou, personally rushed over with a group of arresters.

"It's all gone, my father is in the basement, please wait a while.

Jiang Yin's face was also gloomy to the extreme, these are all family properties that he will inherit in the future, and some of them were looted like this, and his lungs are really going to explode.

However, when he saw Lord Tang coming, he still stepped forward to greet him, squeezing out a smile with great difficulty on his face, and after saying that, he walked directly into the rockery without waiting for Lord Tang's reaction.

Lord Tang frowned slightly when he saw this, but he didn't care too much, after all, everyone's vaults had been ransacked, and his mood could be said to be extreme, and there was no need to care about this etiquette.

"Check the bodies and see if they have any familiar faces. With that,

Master Tang walked directly to the hall where the guests were received.

"It's my lord. A

group of police officers immediately began to investigate the scene.

......

The sky was bright, and in the Jiang family's banquet hall, Master Tang and the Jiang family's father and son were sitting inside.

"Master Tang, it's too late for you to come again, and now everyone is gone.

Jiang Zongshang's tone was with a hint of complaint, obviously dissatisfied with the people in the government, which also came too slowly.

"It also takes time to gather manpower, can't you stop the hundreds of guards

of the Jiang family?" Lord Tang has no business, after all, the Jiang family sends him a lot of money every year, but he is also very surprised in his heart, the Jiang family has been robbed many times, and it was easily taken by his own guards, why is the loss so heavy this time.

"This time is different, this group of bandits is all extraordinary, and there are one hundred and forty or fifty people. Jiang

Zongshang said.

"No wonder.

Master Tang said, and said: "Such a large-scale looting, and it can also open your family's organs, then I'm afraid there is an internal response, check it." "

Not bad.

Jiang Zongshang suddenly realized, Guang was angry just now, and he didn't turn the corner for a while, and at this moment, after being reminded by Master Tang, he immediately said to his son: "You immediately go to check the people in the whole mansion to see who is not there, and then finally go down."

"Okay.

Jiang Yin left immediately.

"Master Tang, you have also seen that now that my Jiang family has suffered such a loss, then this year's commission can be less, right?"

Jiang Zongshang looked at Lord Tang, his heart was painful, and giving such a high private salt commission really made him even more heartbroken.

"These are two different things, this commission is not taken by the official alone, the Yangzhou government has to share the money, and also pay a part of the money to Nanjing, this is not something I can decide alone.

Master Tang frowned, he didn't care about the previous faux pas, but he didn't have to say anything about this kind of thing, so he said again: "Besides, if you are given special treatment this time, won't other businessmen follow suit

in the future?" As soon as these words came out, Jiang Zongshang also knew that it was impossible to reduce this year's private salt commission, in fact, he was just unhappy, if he had a advantage, he would take advantage of it, and if he couldn't take it, he would not force it, and the entire Beizhili private salt commission would have to pay a part of the money to Nanjing, otherwise he would not be able to mix.

"Tell your lord!" Suddenly

, a quick catcher walked in from outside, came to Lord Tang and said, "There are a few familiar faces, they are wanted criminals, and some are bandits outside.

"Then hurry up and arrest the whole process, post notices, strictly check the people who leave the city, and we must catch this group of people." "

The affairs of the Jiang family, Master Tang still has to take care of them, if it were the affairs of ordinary people, he would not come in person at all.

"One more thing. Catching

Kuai lowered his head, attached his ear to Lord Tang's ear, and whispered: "A token was found under those corpses, which is the brand of Jinyiwei.

"What!"

When Lord Tang heard this, he immediately stood up in fright, frowned, took the token and took a closer look, it was indeed the brand of Jinyiwei, and his heart immediately panicked inexplicably, what was Jinyi doing

in the Jiang family? Suddenly, his eyes were staring at Jiang Zongshang, and he wondered in his heart, could it be that someone in the Jiang family had offended Jinyiwei, or was he investigating something else, could it be related to illegal salt?

Jin Yiwei's matter, of course he knows, some time ago, what Nanzhen Fusi specialized in investigating businessmen breaking the law, but he arrested a lot of businessmen and put everyone in danger, but recently, he didn't come to Jiangnan for activities.

As for Nanjing's Jinyiwei, he has been excluded, Nanjing's Jinyiwei is a non-existent and has no real power at all, but the Jinyiwei in the capital is different, if it is targeted, it will cost people's lives.

In addition to the current crown prince's imprisonment, the Jinyi Guard is reused, and the blood stains the capital, I don't know how many high-ranking officials died under the Jinyi Guard's knife.

"Tonight's incident, it should be a coincidence, Jinyiwei came to investigate the Jiang family, and happened to meet a bandit who came to steal things, and in the melee, one was killed, but what is this Jinyiwei investigating?"

"What did you lose in your treasure house?" Lord

Tang hurriedly asked.

"The ledger is all lost. Jiang

Zongshang knew what the other party was asking, money was not the point, the account book was the focus of this Lord Tang's concern.

"Pass the order, block the whole city, and search the whole city!" When

Lord Tang heard this, he suddenly felt dizzy, put back on his chair, and said: "There is a brocade guard lurking in your house, and he disappeared tonight, immediately find a painter to draw a portrait, and this official will be wanted by the whole city."

"What, Jin Yiwei!" Jiang

Zongshang heard these three words, he was more afraid than Master Tang, of course he knew that Nanzhen Fusi was now specializing in investigating commercial crimes, so his salt smuggling was targeted, wouldn't it be over, this is a big crime of raiding the family and exterminating the clan.

"Don't be afraid, they haven't left the city at the moment, even if they escape from the city, the official will notify the Nanjing side, let the whole Jiangnan be under martial law, post a notice to be wanted, and completely block those Jinyi guards, they can't go back to the capital!"
