Chapter 656: The Five-Scroll Sword Roars and the West Wind Thousand Reds

Seeing Feng Ziying's moved expression, Wu Yaoqing felt more at ease, nodded and said: "Yaoqing found out through some local martial arts sects and informants that starting from the 15th when Mr. Lin suddenly fell seriously ill, there were seven groups of people who we thought had the ability to avoid them. The Jianghu people sent by Qiu Shuijian to guard the Yamen appeared in Yangzhou City, and they were basically from Jinling, Hangzhou, Huguang and Jiangxi..."

"..., considering that the Qiushui Sword Sect's defense is not specifically targeted and focuses on the personal safety of the inner courtyard, we slightly lowered some of the criteria for sneaking in to avoid this defense, and then we passed the later verification, Five groups of people can be excluded from the seven groups,..."

 Feng Ziying is very interested.

In his previous life, he had only seen this kind of story about using people from Jianghu sects in martial arts novels and film and television dramas. However, he also knew from some historical records that this kind of situation was not common in reality at that time. It was more of a one-time phenomenon. an individual case or an exaggeration in the style of a romance novel.

I didn’t expect that I could feel it myself now. There really is such a thing and it’s not completely fictitious.

The last time I went to Jiangnan, I used Long Jinwei, Qiushui Sword Sect and Cao Gang because I was worried about my own safety. People like Liu Xianglian and You San should have some connections with the Northwest Kongtong Sect. These originally existed in martial arts novels and legends. All kinds of things have actually appeared.

It's just that I didn't have a very intuitive feeling before, but this time it was directly related to Lin Ruhai, and it was Lin Ruhai's life, so he had to pay attention to it.

"…, the remaining two groups of people are all from Jinling. One group left Yangzhou and returned to Jinling three days after the incident. They should be from Baishi Villa in Jinling. The other group left Yangzhou for Suzhou just yesterday. Now they only We have temporarily grasped his true identity, but his past daily activities and main relationships are not yet clear. We are conducting further verification and screening..."

Although he said it in an understatement, Feng Ziying knew how much manpower and material resources had been spent here.

This era is not like the Internet information age of later generations. You can know clearly by just searching on the Internet. It completely depends on manpower to carry out appropriate screening.

Fortunately, the current regulations on population movement in the Great Zhou Dynasty are very strict. Even people from Jianghu need to apply for a local permit when going out. Therefore, generally speaking, these people will not violate the rules easily, because once they are caught, the government will Jianghu and gangsters who are waiting to use force to break the ban will only become more strict.

For Wu Yaoqing to be able to achieve this in such a short period of time, in addition to his huge influence or interest in the local Jianghu gangs and the three religions and nine streams, he also needs to have a very close and tacit understanding with the local government, otherwise you will What qualifications does a staff member of the Salt Transport Department's Yamen have to ask the Yamen of Yangzhou Prefecture or Jiangdu County to provide you with this information?

"Thank you for your hard work Yaoqing." Feng Ziying nodded, "If there is no clear answer to this matter, I feel that I will not be able to feel at ease in my life. Well, Wen Yan and Yaoqing also know that Uncle Lin is actually my future father-in-law, and now he He died of illness. As my son-in-law, I also need to give an explanation in my heart. If it is really that he died of illness, and even I hope so in my heart, then I have nothing to say and can feel relieved. If it is for other reasons, I think no matter what Whoever it is should give me justice."

There was not much coolness or ruthlessness in Feng Ziying's words, and he simply stated a fact. However, Wang Wenyan and Wu Yaoqing, who already knew this person somewhat, could hear the undoubted determination and firmness in it.

Even Wang Wenyan, who knew more details, was even more shocked.

Feng Ziying’s words even imply some undisguised domineering and aggressiveness.

We must know that due to the particularity of the Lianghuai Salt Patrol Censor, it itself is the product of the wrestling game between the two emperors. In other words, if Lin Ruhai really did not die of disease, but was caused by other factors, then Feng Ziying's attitude shows He will never give up, no matter who the other party is.

Wang Wenyan can also guess that if the beneficiary is Tao Guolu, then the person behind it is either the Supreme Emperor's line or Prince Yi Zhong.

  No matter which party it is, for Feng Ziying now, it is a behemoth that needs to be looked up to, and Feng Ziying will not fail to realize it.

  But the other party still expressed such an attitude, which meant that Feng Ziying would not shrink back because of the other party's strength.

This not only made Wang Wenyan feel excited, but also made him a little worried.

I am excited that there is such a big-minded club that is not afraid of hardships and dangers, and the future is unlimited. I am worried that the opponent is too unruly and tough, and may encounter many open and covert attacks. This is a bit uncomfortable for Feng Ziying, who still needs to accumulate strength. Good deal.

"Yao Qing, I leave this matter to you. If there is anything you need, just ask and do whatever you want. Well, but before there is any definite result, I hope this situation is only known to the three of you and me. "

Feng Ziying glanced at the two of them, and both of them were stunned and nodded to obey.

"In addition, after this matter is over, there is no need to say anything about Wen Yan. Just proceed as we originally discussed. Yao Qing, please sort out the things you have in your hands now and give me something in writing. I want to understand More detailed, um, including all aspects, do you understand what I mean?"

Feng Ziying looked at Wu Yaoqing. Wu Yaoqing's eyes flashed with joy and he nodded vigorously: "Yao Qing understands."

Wang Wenyan could tell that Feng Ziying was very interested in what Wu Yaoqing had in his hands, far more than before.

 This is a good thing.

With the passing of Lin Ruhai, it is impossible for Tao Guolu to accept and will not accept everything that Lin Ruhai had, not to mention that he is not a salt inspector and is not qualified to accept these things.

The various resources and personnel left by Lin Ruhai will quickly fall apart, and Feng Ziying cannot accept them all. He can only choose to swallow what he needs as much as possible, and digest it into something that belongs to him.

Feng Ziying also realized that she had underestimated the thing Wu Yaoqing had in his hands.

From the current point of view, the affairs I am involved in are not closely intertwined with Wu Yaoqing's affairs. However, once I am no longer in the Chinese Book Department, no longer engaged in sea development affairs, or even move to other places, involving a wider range of fields, Wu Yaoqing's hand I'm afraid the things inside will gradually show greater value and significance.

So start from now on and strengthen and consolidate it. At this time, Yangzhou and even South Zhili will always be the essence of the Great Zhou Dynasty. No matter whether you are in the capital or elsewhere, this area maintains sufficient influence and information. Being well-informed is absolutely necessary.

While Feng Ziying was busy dealing with the official affairs left behind by Lin Ruhai's death, Jia Lian was also busy dealing with Lin Ruhai's private property. The arrival of Baochai and Tanchun also made Daiyu, who was originally feeling lonely and desolate, finally have more. My best friends kept me company, and my mood became slightly better.

 It should be said that the arrival of Baochai and Tanchun is the most beneficial.

Baochai is calm and elegant, and is more familiar with such daily affairs. He can help Daiyu share some trivial matters, and even help her make some suggestions and choices.

Tanchun is undoubtedly the closest to Daiyu, even more than Xiangyun, and her understanding and understanding have also greatly relaxed Daiyu's spirit, and released her inner depression and baggage.

With a few more sisters, Xiangyun can feel much more relaxed, and this special incident has also quickly brought the relationship between the girls who are far away from the extended family a lot closer, and they even have a special sense of closeness. .

Looking at Daiyu who was sleeping deeply from a distance, Feng Ziying came out quietly with her hands behind her back.

Accompanying Feng Ziying were Baochai, Yingchun, Xiangyun and Tanchun Xichun.

"Sisters, you have worked hard these past few days. Sister Lin is weak and has encountered such a big thing. If you don't relieve her and comfort her, I'm afraid it will be difficult for her to survive..." Feng Ziying said solemnly. He bowed his hand and said, "Especially Sister Yun, I have all relied on you these past few months."

"Brother Feng is serious. When Sister Lin encounters this kind of thing, I am thinking that we sisters may feel the same way. Even ordinary people should help us, not to mention that we still have this different relationship. ..." Several girls responded one after another and echoed Shi Xiangyun's words.

Shi Xiangyun was even more heroic, "Sister Lin is already very strong, much better than before, but it's the hard work of Brother Feng and Brother Lian running back and forth."

 Feng Ziying couldn't help but give Shi Xiangyun a thumbs up in her heart.

In just a few months, Shi Xiangyun has matured a lot. His bold personality has now become more calm. The original innocent aura between his brows seems to have turned into a unique and rich fragrance due to maturity. Feng Ziying feels in her heart. I couldn't help but feel a little throbbing.

Looking around, Feng Ziying was in a daze as several women who embody the essence of the world were standing in front of her.

 The gentleness of Baochai, the kindness of welcoming the spring, the boldness of the Xiangyun, and the heroic posture of exploring the spring. Even the youngest Xichun has a faintly clear and solitary appearance.

Baochai and Tanchun were also shocked by Shi Xiangyun's words, and their eyes subconsciously fell on Xiangyun.

I used to think that Xiangyun was innocent and generous, but I didn’t expect that Xiangyun would have such knowledge and conversation after not seeing each other for just a few months. Is it possible that traveling thousands of miles is better than reading thousands of books?

Xiangyun has been accompanying Daiyu for the past few months, and he has also had such encounters and experiences, and has grown a lot?

Feng Ziying smiled lightly and looked at Xiangyun, "Sister Yun's words are reasonable, but I believe that sister Lin will never forget this family affection between you sisters..."
