1.35 Eventful Autumn
The queen set up this situation only to balance Liu Bei's position.
Not for money.
On the boat, the queen asked Liu Bei if there was anything in the hearts of the world that could not be exchanged.
I asked His Majesty if it was the same.
She actually wanted to ask if she spent a lot of money to buy the Great Han Crown Prince, would His Majesty be willing to sell it?
Liu Bei told her that His Majesty would not sell it.
It is related to the billions of wealth obtained by Your Majesty's sale of official positions and titles, and the inheritance of the Han Dynasty.
One is the source of wealth and honor, and the other is the basis of wealth and honor. How can Your Majesty sell it?
Why did Your Majesty like his two sons? Liu Bei only knows the general idea. The Huangmen Order Zuo Feng once secretly told Liu Bei. Your Majesty told the people around him that the eldest son was frivolous and unceremonious, so how could he inherit the throne?
It’s just Your Majesty. The so-called frivolous and unceremonious ones, shouldn’t the emperor’s eldest son be lively and cute at this age?
Liu Bei always felt that there must be secrets in this.
Forget it. It is better to have less than more things than anything else.
What a thing, a turbulent time.
The General’s Mansion, the Fortress, and the West Building. Jia Xu was listening to the secret spies’ rewards.
Most of the good craftsmen listed on the bamboo sheets have corresponded to each other and there is no abnormality. However, a few of them are still missing.
The so-called "separation of the road is like a mountain".
These good crafts are only good at creating, but not good at assassinating and poisoning. This is the exclusive exclusive to the assassin.
This is obviously an ancient profession with a very disparity. It requires years of hard training and it is impossible to learn without a teacher.
Therefore, a person with an assassin with a body is a craftsman, and the possibility is not high.
Therefore, Jia Xu concluded that among good craftsmen, there must be someone who impersonates them.
Thinking of this, Jia Xu made up his mind: "Come and prepare the car."
"Here." The carriage drove out from the side door and headed to Jinshui Koshi.
Jia Xu has always been responsible for big and small matters in the city. It is also common for carriages to enter and exit the small market.
When climbing the city building, Jia Xu subconsciously glanced at the bulletin board full of notices, and then walked into the building.
Jinshui City. The city building is also a gate building. All officials in the city were recruited by Jia Xu or sent from Linxiang.
There will never be any spy in.
When Liu Bei had not transformed the General's Mansion and was still far away in the Western Regions, Jia Xu transformed and strengthened the small market. Recently, he has made drastic moves to carry out secondary upgrades and transformations. He only seeks to be solid.
"Youcheng." The officials in the city stepped forward to salute.
"I have nothing to do today, so I turned around and took a look." Jia Xu smiled and said, "You can go by yourself, don't worry about me."
"Here." The officials were busy without mentioning it.
Half an hour later, he saw that no one was following him. Jia Xu called a minor official from Lin Township and asked him to take his famous letter to Luoyang County and invite Luoyang Commander Zhou Yi to meet him at Jinshui Tangguan.
The Jinshui Soup House was expanded from the Jinshui Soup House. It was carefully crafted in the style of Linxiang. The ground was paved with white marble and there were several soup pools. It was of different sizes. There were dozens of wooden shower rooms. You could bathe first, then bathe. There were elegant seats on the second floor and a three-story temple. It was a rare leisure place in Dongguo, Luoyang.
Officials in Luoyang often come in and out. Many people even bathe once a day, so why should they wait until they have to take a break?
Seeing that Luoyang Order Zhou Yi lifted the curtain and entered, the servant greeted him with a smile and opened a new pool for him to take a bath.
After taking a shower, I walked up to the elegant seat on the second floor in a bathrobe. I saw a person drinking alone by the window, so I came to greet me.
"You Cheng."
"Ming Court."
The two met as promised.
The elegant waterfront seat is close to the Golden Water Pond. It overlooks the green lotus and clear water outside the window, and the breeze is gentle. It makes people feel refreshed.
Only after taking a bath can you go up to the second floor for a drink. How dare the assassin with sharp weapons enter the pond and take off all his clothes?
This is an excellent place for secret talks.
"What's the matter with the Right Prime Minister?" He took a sip and asked Luoyang Linghuo's cup.
"I dare to ask the Ming court that there are cases of missing craftsmen in Luoyang."
"Yes." Zhou Yi thought for a brief moment and nodded: "The family members of the craftsmen came to report to each other in the east and south. He said that his family had disappeared for no reason and had not returned for several days."
"Is there a craftsman who has entered the palace to build?" Jia Xu asked.
"There is indeed this person." Zhou Yi asked: "How did the Right Chief know?"
"This matter is very involved, I can't tell you." Jia Xu first apologized for guilt: "The Ming court may have clues."
Fortunately, Luoyang ruling Zhou Yi was also a capable official. The disappearance case has never been solved. Although he has been busy every day, it is also engraved in his heart: "This person's name is Tang Qi. He lives in Chongyili, Dongguo. His wife Zhou came to report half a month ago. Tang Qi has not returned for many days, and he is afraid that he will be harmed."
Jia Xu recalled the list of craftsmen and did have this name: "Who is it?"
"This person is skilled and can be called a good craftsman. However, he is addicted to alcohol and is good at playing. He is a waste of time and has not returned for several days or months."
"Since this is the case, his wife must be used to it. Why did she sue?" Jia Xu asked.
"It was because of the matter in the palace." Luoyang Order Zhou Yi replied: "Because I took on the work in the palace, the construction period was tight. Tang Qi went out early and came back late, and there was no negligence for a day. Before the work was completed, the person disappeared halfway, so his wife came to report it."
"So that's it." Jia Xu nodded slightly and asked again: "The Ming court has a clue to this person."
"I have asked the craftsman who is familiar with him. Everyone said that three days before Tang Qi disappeared, he had nowhere to be seen entering the palace to build it."
"Oh?" Jia Xu asked, "When did Tang Qi disappear?"
“July 11th.”
Three days ago, it is the day of the family dinner.
The worker was no longer seen on the day of the family dinner. Why did he disappear three days later?
Jia Xu asked out the doubts.
Luoyang Order replied: "His wife said that Tang Qi was a small-scale man while working, and went home to recuperate."
"So that's it." Jia Xu asked again: "In addition to this person, similar craftsmen may be missing."
"There is no one else." Zhou Yi replied.
Obviously, Tang Qi's whereabouts are the key.
"Can the Ming court order people to check the whereabouts of this person? But if you know something, you immediately sent someone to the museum to tell me. Then you said, "The Ming court wants to book a monastery." Xu will come to see you. Don't leak the news."
"I have known all the differences." Zhou Yi saw Jia Xu so cautious. He thought that Tang Qi had entered the palace to build it. He knew that this matter was of great importance.
Then he said goodbye and left. He secretly sent additional personnel to search for Tang Qi's traces.
There are 100,000 households in Luoyang, and the people in charge of millions. If you want to search for a missing craftsman in the Siguo of Luoyang, it is like looking for a needle in a haystack. The difficulty can be imagined.
The right chief Jia Xu didn't have any hope. As a result, within a few days, Zhou Yizi Zhou Yu went to the Jinshui Soup House and booked a monastery on behalf of his father.
Jia Xu received the reward and rushed to meet him.
In the third floor monastery, guests and host meet.
Zhou Yi said, "Yesterday, a floating corpse was seen under Qili Bridge. His whole body was swollen and his face was unrecognizable. His wife, Zhou, was determined to be Tang Qi based on her clothes, work injuries, tattoos, etc., and her physical characteristics. I have ordered someone to test it, and there was no external injury and internal injury. There was residual alcohol in her abdomen, but she fell into the water after getting drunk. Chongyili was close to Yangqu, and the Qili Bridge was east of it. Perhaps it was correct."
That's true.
It seems like a dull drunken and drowning case. Jia Xu is still suspicious.
"Where is Tang Qi's mortal being?"
"I am currently in the county seat. I will hand it over to his wife Zhou to take it back tomorrow and be buried in peace." Zhou Yi replied.
"Can you let Shi Huan, the general's mansion, go to inspect tonight?"
