"Mr. Wei, six hundred and sixty thousand taels! It's amazing!" Gu Jingfei started talking about the bidding as soon as they met, "Congratulations, brother, I'm really envious..."

"Uh...why didn't the prince go to the auction?" Wei Lang didn't bother to explain to others over and over again, and directly asked questions to test the other party.

"Oops! Forget it, I'm so unlucky!" When he mentioned this, Gu Jingfei couldn't help shaking his head and sighing, "When I was queuing outside, I met a goddamn thief! He stole all the banknotes I had on me! The money. Why take pictures when everything is gone? It’s so annoying! Hey! Of course, even if I go there, I can’t compete with Mr. Wei, I just go in to join in the fun..."

"Ah? The money was stolen?" Wei Lang was quite surprised, "Have you got it back?"

Gu Jingfei replied: "To recover part of it, I have to ask Eunuch Chen from the Police Bureau to help..."

"It's not easy to get part of it back. Eunuch Chen's methods are really powerful..."

"Yeah, it's not easy! The Anti-Agency Bureau has spies in the underground gang in Shengxianfang. They all know who is stealing in this area." Gu Jingfei continued to tell the story, "That damn little thief was the one who stole things recently. A newcomer who just joined the Qiongqi Gang, he messed around in Miaoyin Tower because he didn't understand the rules, and ended up stealing from me! We raided the thief's stronghold, but it was too late. The little thief had already stolen my money on the gaming table. I lost tens of thousands of taels of silver! I really can’t get it back!"

"The Qiongqi Gang again? Such a scourge!" Wei Lang naturally expressed his indignation, "Sooner or later we will catch them all! Kill them all!"

"Oh, by the way, we also found a strange guy in the thief's stronghold..." Gu Jingfei suddenly remembered another detail, "It seems to be the hostage kidnapped by the Qiongqi gang? That person claimed to be the Tang family and asked to meet Chen My father-in-law... was later taken away by the Police Department. I wonder if they contacted you?"

"The Qiongqi gang kidnapped our Tang family? No, right?" Wei Lang was startled for a moment, then realized that trouble was coming!

No one in the Tang family has gone missing recently. If they had, he would have known about it.

And the only Tang family that can be connected with the Qiongqi Gang is probably from Tang Wei!

It can only be the witness mentioned by the four-foot turtle!

Now the person has fallen into the hands of the Police Enforcement Bureau! ?

Gan! Is this the way of heaven? The Tang family cannot escape the disaster of destruction! ?

Wei Lang didn't have time to choose a gift, so he just bought a jade bracelet and wrapped it in red cloth, then said goodbye and left.

He quickly ran back to Ruan Ning and handed the gift directly to Ruan Ning: "This is for you!"

"Ah?" Ruan Ning was startled at first. After unfolding the red cloth and seeing the jade bracelet, she immediately smiled happily, "Is this...a gift for the Autumn Festival?"

"Yes, yes! It's time for you to go back!" But Wei Lang was in a hurry to "break up" with her, "I'm in an emergency and can't accompany you anymore!"

...

Wei Lang ran into Miaoyin Building alone and found Xue Huai'en who was still busy at the scene and writing an investigation report.

But Xue Huaien knew nothing about the witness, because he had been busy with the assassination case here, and Chen Lun was completely responsible for that.

However, he still asked his cronies to go back to the bureau to inquire about it, and learned that the witness had been imprisoned in prison and was interrogated by Chen Lun himself, and no one else was allowed to have contact with him.

Moreover, the emperor already knew about this and ordered strict supervision. Xue Huai'en did not dare to make any small moves.

Wei Lang also understood that Xue Huai'en could not help, so he quickly asked for another fast horse and rushed to the political affairs hall.

Since the emperor refused to admit that he had been to Miaoyin Tower, the assassination could not be discussed, and the ministers had to pretend to be confused and go home for the holidays;

Only Prime Minister Tang was still working overtime in the office to engage in involution.

Wei Lang quickly walked into the prime minister's office, closed the door, and informed Prime Minister Tang about the arrest of the witness.

"Oh... that guy was caught by the Police Bureau." Prime Minister Tang acted extremely calm, worthy of being an official veteran who had experienced great storms.

In fact, Prime Minister Tang had already tortured out part of the information from Si Chi Gui, but he never told Wei Lang.

Now Tang Wei also sent a secret message from the north, telling the general situation.

The chief clerk's name was Nie Wenmao, and the evidence he had was limited, and probably not enough to bring down Tang Wei.

As for Tang Wei's surrender to the enemy and treason, it is even more nonsense and a completely false accusation! It was just that boy venting his hatred for revenge.

So the Prime Minister of the Tang Dynasty took countermeasures in advance. He first charged Nie Wenmao with a bunch of crimes, classified him as absconding in fear of crime, and wanted to arrest him;

At the same time, Tang Wei was also trying to make up for the shortfall and erase all traces of illegal activities.

Now, even if the Police Bureau catches Nie Wenmao, and even if the emperor orders an investigation of Tang Wei, it will be difficult to capture tangible evidence in the short term;

What's more, the war on the front line is tight. It is impossible for the emperor to force a change of coach. The Tang family still has enough time to deal with the matter.

"Don't be too panicked. I bet the emperor won't dare to touch Tang Wei yet..." Prime Minister Tang calmly took a sip of tea, "Wait until I think of a way to shut up that Nie Wenmao forever..."

"Cousin, I think it's best to send a few more reliable confidants to the north to help keep an eye on it..." But Wei Lang was still worried.

Because he knows very well that in this kind of cool novel, the villain will be clever at every turn.

As the biggest weakness of the Tang family, Tang Wei will definitely continue to seek death, and the emperor must seize the opportunity;

Even if Prime Minister Tang handles things well, it still won't help...

Moreover, Prime Minister Tang really underestimated the emperor's courage and courage.

That guy Gu Shixian has actually been acting in front of all the veterans, pretending to be indecisive and hesitant when handling government affairs;

But in fact, when he really wanted to take action, he would do it quickly and ruthlessly! Kill decisively!

I'm afraid I won't give the Tang family time to react! Just one hit to win!

"Hey, actually I have sent several good advisers, but Tang Wei didn't listen to the advice..." But Prime Minister Tang couldn't do anything about his eldest son, "He is already over thirty years old, and he is still a general who governs the country. He has more titles than me... If it were you, would you still listen to dad?"

"Uh..." Wei Lang couldn't respond.

Prime Minister Tang sighed a few more times, and then asked about the assassination: "This time, have Zhong Peng and the remaining rebels really been wiped out?"

Wei Lang hesitated for a moment and then told the truth: "I'm afraid not, because I think the mastermind behind it is King Xiaoyang. The person directly involved in the operation should be a retainer named Min Zhao."

"Do you think it's King Xiaoyang?" Prime Minister Tang frowned, "Is there any evidence?"

"No." Wei Lang shook his head.

"You can't talk nonsense without evidence." Prime Minister Tang glanced at Wei Lang, "How about you go to Zong Xiaoyang as soon as possible to find out the truth?"

"No!" Wei Lang immediately refused, "King Xiaoyang may rebel at any time. Am I going to give someone away!?"

"Neither the emperor nor I want to see any vassal princes revolt..." Prime Minister Tang paused, and finally said the deeper purpose of marrying into the wife, "I heard that King Xiaoyang's health is not very good and he needs to take medicine for a long time... ...If you stay with King Xiaoyang, do you have a chance to stop him from doing whatever he wants?"
