The Famous Detective of the Red Mansions

The tradition in the old bureaucratic system has always been public affairs and private affairs on special occasions. What's more, not only has this time promised a great reward, it is also at stake for Xiang Yi's life.

Therefore, a few subordinate officials and a group of domestic servants are all working hard to drill the camp.

People were thrown out in the morning, and news came back one after another before noon.

First, after some investigations, it was discovered that someone had indeed hoarded privately. A large amount of materials used when going to sea, even pickles and food, were also bought in a considerable amount.

It's just that the whereabouts of these materials are still unknown.

In addition, Sun Shaozong said before that all the maritime merchants are in danger, but he just found a reason casually. Who knows that he really said it-in recent days, nearly half of the gentry's homes were ransacked for business. Maritime trade.

Although the Jinmen government is indeed located by the sea, the main economic lifeline still relies on inland river transportation. It can be said that among the ten people who make money by shipping, they may not be able to find one or two by sea.

Therefore, this ratio is extremely abnormal.

Sun Shaozong hurriedly ordered people to follow this line and conducted a thorough investigation. It was found that not only the gentry had been ransacked, but also many of the stewards and crew members who ran into the sea all year round were thrown into jail. .

However, because the matter of a group of mud legs is far less attractive than the gentry masters being caught, there has not been much news before.

And along this line, I found out that Siyamen, the prisoner and the prosecutor, got another news, saying that just after the noon, the soldiers and horses of Jian Si sent the sailors in the prison, together with the family members and maids of the gentry. Went to the Governor's Mansion.

Hearing this news, Sun Shaozong showed some solemn expression on his face, and asked in a deep voice, "Among those women, are there older people?"

The servant of the Xiang family who came to report back and forth was obviously also a standard gossip party, and he was quite clear about these details.

Yu Shi hurriedly said vividly: "I heard people say that those hundred and ten are mostly water and spirit little ladies. Sometimes there are a few half-old milfs, and they are also the kind that still has the charm. As for the old and declining ones, they are I haven't seen half of them."

it is as expected!

This Zhou Ruqing really does everything in one circle, and she never wastes any ‘resources’!

When the servant was sent away, Xiang Yi couldn't help but curiously said, "It's nothing more than those sailors. What use are they doing with a group of women at this time?"

Sun Shaozong was silent for a while before he sneered and said, "Naturally it is used as a name cast!"

Many of these sailors were involuntary. Right now Zhou Ruqing relied on his official power and could still be suppressed, but once he got to the sea, he, the governor of treason and fleeing from the country, might not be better than a salted fish in the eyes of the sailors!

Therefore, some means must be used in advance to force these sailors to have no home and they can only be tied to him - and the women who were taken to the Governor's Mansion were obviously the ‘means’ prepared by Zhou Ruqing.

Regardless of whether it was voluntary to touch the bodies of these gentry family members, or even cause a few more lives, the sailors had to be obedient and fled overseas with Zhou Ruqing.

"Vote for name certificate?"

After all, Xiang Yi is not a pure nerd. After a moment of indulgence, he suddenly realized: "In this case, he is actually going to take those women..."

"No!"

He jumped up abruptly, and said indignantly: "Because Zhou Ruqing is still a poet who has read poetry and books, I can't think of it is such a lost conscience! Brother grandson, you and I, as the imperial court commanders, must not look at those women Spoil it!"

Even if Xiang Yi didn't say this, Sun Shaozong would not sit idly by.

Originally, he planned to find out the actual evidence of Zhou Ruqing's'fleeing with stolen money', and then lay in ambush on the pier to collect the stolen money, so as not to be victimized by killing snakes. How can you move him without evidence?

But now this situation...

Ah~

Sure enough, you still have to speak with your fist!

Sun Shaozong stood up helplessly, waiting to say something, but he heard someone shouting outside: "Sir thousand households, sir thousand households! Something has happened, something has happened!"

Before he finished his words, he saw a few Dragon Guards wearing the ink-swallowing robe, staggering in, and as soon as they crossed the threshold, the headed one hundred households squatted on the ground, crying in mourning: "Thousand households. Your lord! Governor Zhou, he... he transported all the firearms and crossbows in the arsenal to the Governor's Mansion!"

"what?!"

Sun Shaozong said in amazement: "Why are there still firearms in this Jinmen Mansion?!"

He doesn't care about ordinary swords, spears and halberds, but this firearm is different from a crossbow.

But isn't this firearm only available in the military?

The training intensity of the personal soldiers of the Governor's Mansion in Zhili Province may be higher than that of ordinary soldiers in the Beijing camp, but they are still not a good army.

"Return to your lord."

Then Jia Baihu hurriedly said: "There used to be a group of bandits nearby. When the Jinmen Mansion was first established, they fought a few battles with the officers and soldiers. These things were left behind when the bandits were suppressed!"

"There are about forty arquebuses, more than a hundred crossbows, and... and four tiger squat guns!"

"There is nothing wrong with banditry right now. The Governor is acting like this, it is really...some..."

by!

When Sun Shaozong heard this, he couldn't help but scold his mother. These things are nothing compared to the tens of thousands of officers and soldiers in the capital, but they are enough to look at in Jinmen Mansion!

"grown ups."

Telling the big news of this day, Jia Shanyao feels much more secure. Seeing that Sun Shaozong was silent for a long time, he couldn't help but remind: "Should we send someone out of the city to send this news to the capital? "

Sun Shaozong sneered at him and said with a sneer: "Is there any use other than evasive responsibility afterwards to spread news to the capital?"

Jia Shanyao was peeped through his mind, and he threw himself into the ground in a busy and confusing manner.

Sun Shaozong walked a few steps back and forth in the living room, and then asked, "How many people are there in the guard team of the Governor's Mansion?"

"Originally there were only a few thirty ~www.wuxiaspot.com~, but after Lord Zhou was promoted to the governor-general, he more than doubled the enrollment. There are about 80 or 90 people at the moment, almost all of them are from Lord Zhou’s township party. Faithful!"

Jia Shanyao said, suddenly remembering something, and hurriedly added: "I heard that Master Jiantai also brought dozens of cronies at the time of the afternoon. Adding the two together, how can there be one hundred thirty or forty people!"

"If you count the nurses, it's estimated that it won't be a problem to get together two hundred people!"

Gee~

Two hundred well-trained soldiers, armed with muskets, bows and crossbows, with four tiger squatting cannons...

"How many of your 100 households can fight?"

"This one……"

If Sun Shaozong asked about this in the past, Jia Shanyao assured him that every one of the 40 or so brothers in the 100 households could fight, and everyone dared to fight!

But now it is not the time to brag about cover-ups, so he can only say in a nonchalant way: "Although there are more than forty people in the 100 households under the bid, there are only a dozen people who can really fight, and those who dare to fight hard... It is less."

Okay~

This ratio is close to twenty to one!

Xiang Yi, who knows nothing about military affairs, lost the impassioned impassion on his face at this time, shaking his sleeves and stomping his feet: "This...how is this good!"

"Do not worry."

Sun Shaozong was still calm, and patted him lightly on the shoulder, saying: "We don't have to attack directly, as long as we can catch the thief first..."

"My lord, my lord!"

Before he finished saying the words'catch the thief, catch the king,' he heard someone crying and howling outside: "The soldiers of the Governor's Mansion are gathering on the street, as if they are coming to our side. !"

Thanks to the book friend ‘’ for the reward.
