Chapter 271: To alert the snake, wait and see.
Xuandemen Street.
Mirror Appraisal Department.
The city-wide search has lasted for two full hours. Five thousand Yulin troops, one thousand mirror guards, eight hundred Fengyang officials, and nearly seven thousand people were conducting a carpet search. The entire Fengyang city was almost searched, but still No clues related to Luo Hong were found.
As night fell slowly, the lobby of the Mirror and Appraisal Department was also lit by candlelight. Lin Feng and Liu Song sat quietly on their chairs, patiently waiting for the results of this major search.
"Consultant Lin, if Luo Hong is not caught in the search, what should we do next?"
"Liu Zhangjian, a wise man will make a mistake after all his considerations. We may have overlooked someone."
"Who?"
"Nanshan! If Luo Hong hides in Nanshan's house, then our search will be in vain."
Liu Song's expression changed, and he immediately thought of Nanshan, the black-clad guard Qianhu Fan Li had confessed to. According to Fan Li, Nanshan's official position in the imperial court was not low.
The Dayan Dynasty had regulations that no one was allowed to enter the residences of officials of fifth rank or above without the emperor's imperial edict.
"Counsellor Lin, how about you and I go into the palace to explain the situation to His Majesty, and ask His Majesty to give us a search order?"
Lin Feng shook his head, "Liu Zhangjian, this is inappropriate. First, we have no definite evidence to prove that Luo Hong is in Fengyang City. Second, we don't even have anyone to suspect in Nanshan. There is no one at all." It can be checked. Thirdly, it is impossible for His Majesty to order the search of all ministers’ residences without any evidence.”
In fact, Liu Song didn't know what Lin Feng said. He was just unwilling to accept it. He knew clearly that Luo Hong was hiding in a certain minister's house, but he couldn't do anything. This feeling was really aggrieved.
At this moment, Han Zhijie and Zhang Jian hurriedly walked in from outside, "Report to Zhangjian Advisor that the search has ended, and no trace of Luo Hong was found, but..."
"Just what? Commander Han, please tell me if you have something to say."
"Yes, palm sword!"
"Commander Lu discovered an underground secret room in the Li Clan Ancestral Hall in Daningfang. After receiving the news, his subordinates and Commander Zhang rushed over to check it out in person. After careful investigation, their subordinates discovered that the secret room had been manipulated by someone. Yes, because the dust on the table was just sprinkled on it not long ago."
"That's right. If our guess is correct, Luo Hong should have been hiding in the underground secret room of the Li Clan Ancestral Hall in Daningfang." Liu Song said.
Lin Feng nodded, "Yes, Luo Hong is indeed in Fengyang City. The dignified King of Nanyuan of Beiyuan has personally sneaked into Fengyang City. It seems that Beiyuan will make big moves soon."
"Big move? Does Consultant Lin know what they are going to do next?"
Lin Feng shook his head, "I don't know. There is too little information for me to speculate."
"Consultant Lin, Beiyuan's big move must be aimed at me, Dayan. Once we let them take action first, we will be passive."
"What Liu Zhangjian said is absolutely true, but now we don't even know what they are going to do, so we can't stop them at all."
As soon as Lin Feng said this, the entire lobby became quiet, and everyone was thinking about how to deal with it.
After a while, Lin Feng suddenly thought of something, "Liu Zhangjian, we are in the dark and Luo Hong is in the dark. If that's the case, we might as well give Luo Hong a warning and wait for him."
"Consultant Lin, why do you want to alert the snake and wait for the rabbit to come?"
"Liu Zhangjian, early tomorrow morning, we will put up notices offering a reward for Luo Hong throughout the city, promising to reward anyone who provides accurate information with a reward of 10,000 taels of silver. Especially in the streets where the court officials live concentratedly, we must do this. Ten steps and one post.”
"Since Luo Hong is hiding in Nanshan's house, then some of the servants in Nanshan's house must have seen Luo Hong. The reward of ten thousand taels of silver is enough for them to betray their master. As long as Luo Hong feels the danger, he will Leaving Nanshan's mansion is just like alerting the enemy."
"Tomorrow morning, all the gates of Fengyang City will be opened on time. However, we have to send people to monitor each gate secretly. Once Luo Hong is found out of the city, he will be arrested immediately. This is called waiting for the rabbit."
Liu Song nodded, "It's a good idea to alert the snake and wait for it to happen. This matter will be handled according to Consultant Lin's wishes. You two will go and prepare the reward notice immediately."
"Yes, palm sword!"
Han Zhijie and Zhang Jian both cupped their hands, turned around and strode away.
Early the next morning, Fengyang City returned to normal and all city gates were open. However, a reward notice made Fengyang City lively again.
Chengtianmen Street.
Xiafu.
As usual, Xu Dashan led four family members to guard outside the gate of Xia Mansion.
Suddenly, there was a noise on the street opposite. Xu Dashan looked up and saw a group of people gathered across the street. That was where the sound came from.
Xu Dashan shook his head. A group of ignorant people are really rare and strange. A mere notice is worth the attention of so many of you.
"Ah wu..."
Xu Dashan yawned, "The four of you will keep an eye on the door for me. I didn't sleep well last night and went in to relax for a while. If a big shot comes, call me immediately."
"Yes, Xu Tou!"
Xu Dashan, a little guy looking at the door with a pretty big score, returned to the room where the servants rested with a arrogant pace.
Just when I lay down, I suddenly thought of the mysterious Mr. Nan yesterday. I reached out and touched the gold ingot in my arms, and immediately sat up from the bed.
No, I have to go outside and guard in person. If another big boss comes today, the reward will not be cheap for the boys outside.
Xu Dashan returned to the gate and saw that the people across the street reading the notice not only did not leave but gathered more and more, "Xiao Wu, do you know what notice is posted across the street?"
"Xu Tou, I didn't go to see it, but I vaguely seemed to hear the words "reward" and "ten thousand taels". I think it should be a reward notice."
Ten thousand taels! Xu Dashan's eyes started to light up when he heard this, "You guys keep an eye on the door, I'll go over and have a look."
Xu Dashan squeezed into the crowd of spectators, looked up and saw that it was indeed a reward notice. Then he looked carefully at the portrait on the notice, and Luo Hong's face immediately appeared in Xu Dashan's mind.
Xu Dashan was afraid that he had seen wrongly, so he stretched out his hand to wipe his eyes and took a closer look. It was really Mr. Nan. It turned out that Mr. Nan was Luo Hong, whom the Mirror Appraisal Department was offering a reward for.
Seeing the reward notice written in black and white, whoever provided accurate information would be rewarded with 10,000 taels of silver, Xu Dashan's heartbeat instantly began to accelerate.
You know, Xu Dashan only earned five taels of silver when he worked as an errand in the Xia Mansion for a month. He could not earn ten thousand taels without eating or drinking in his whole life. Xu Dashan suddenly had a bold idea.
Thinking of the ten thousand taels of silver he was about to receive, Xu Dashan immediately decided to report to the Mirror Appraisal Department. In the face of huge interests, Xu Dashan chose to betray Xia Yuan without hesitation.
Whatever he wanted to do, Xu Dashan immediately left the crowd and strode towards the direction of Jingjian Division...
