Cheng Xinyan followed, "Be careful, walls have ears!"

Wu Minqing was reminded. Although he realized that he was chatting again, his interest did not diminish.

He lowered his voice slightly and said, "Brother Wu and Brother Wang, do you think what I said is wrong?"

Cheng Xinyan said, "What you said makes sense, but we can't discuss this matter outside. If anyone with a heart listens to it, I'm afraid our lives will be at risk."

"Why is it so serious?" Wu Minqing felt that Cheng Xinyan and Wang Wende were too cautious. "The previous Jin Yiwei was so majestic, but I never saw these two brothers so nervous."

Wang Wende said, "The Jinyiwei of the former Ming Dynasty were powerful enough, but in the Tianqi and Chongzhen dynasties, it was not as interesting as in the early years."

"But Da'ei's Embroidered Guards are incomparable to the Jinyi Guards - we don't usually see them, and we don't even hear any relevant news."

After Wang Wende reluctantly adapted to the light, he opened his eyes and found that except for the lights and light, other things around him could not be seen clearly. Ding Ruzhang and other embroidered guards were only a blur of figures.

"That's good."

that's it.

Although the five people opposite were all wearing ordinary people's clothes, they were all strong men, holding swords in their hands and bulging bags around their waists, as if they were hiding firearms.

Wu Minqing wanted to say more, but Fang Mingrui stopped him.

"Major Ding Ruzhang of the Xiuyi Guards has been ordered to invite Commissioner Wang Wende to come to our place for tea. I hope you will cooperate."

Wang Wende walked over and sat down, and found that his feet could barely touch the ground and it was difficult to exert force.

Then the four of them chatted about some business matters and then dispersed to have fun.

Come back home?

In the end, when he felt as if he was about to collapse, he no longer had any intention of hiding anything. No matter what the embroidered guard asked, he told the truth. He just wanted to end the interrogation as soon as possible and leave this weird and depressing room as soon as possible...

The next few days.

But he is a smart man and knows that there must be a reason for Xiuyiwei to ask this question.

Then someone lit a strange lamp.

Wang Wende found that this room was not big, but it had very few furnishings.

Lin Jiading, Chen Jitai and Yangzhou Magistrate Li Daoying bowed to each other before taking their seats.

Wang Wende wanted to get off the sedan outside, but Ding Ruzhang stopped him and said, "Just carry it in."

Hearing this, Wang Wende felt that the matter was serious and did not dare to resist. He immediately did as Ding Ruzhang said...

Although Xiuyiwei has the responsibility of internally supervising officials, the secret agents and informants are responsible for collecting intelligence, and they also have official agencies on the surface.

Ding Ruzhang responded, obviously a little excited, and immediately motioned to Wang Wende to follow him.

Wang Wende was led into the largest hall in the courtyard by Ding Ruzhang.

Tonight, after chatting with a famous prostitute in Yangzhou about life ideals for half the night, I am still in good spirits.

Probably only the government can build houses and paint walls with cement so extravagantly.

After all, he is a giant businessman, and the salt merchant is also an official businessman, so he knows a little bit about Xiuyiwei.

Although Li Daoying was only in his thirties, he was just an ordinary scholar in the Qianming Dynasty. He was not even a child, and he had only been in officialdom for a few years.

"How about we come to my home in Luliu Villa in the southwest the day after tomorrow?"

Wang Wende thought to himself, don’t you know my name? Why are you still asking?

Some bearers even had weak legs and almost fell off the sedan.

Wang Wende has never been so homesick as now, missing the yellow-faced woman at home and several unfulfilled children.

What Ding Ruzhang was referring to was a high stool slightly behind in the center of the house.

Cement, a new building material said to have been invented by Liu Sheng, is now owned by the government in Da'ei.

The salaries in these nursing homes are extremely high, and all of them are very skilled. They can work for the Wang family at critical moments.

Do any of you invite people to tea like this?

Even drinking tea is so scary. If he is arrested, wouldn't it scare people to death?

There was a weird trumpet-shaped thing on the lamp head, and there was a silver mirror inside!

The instructor who was walking in front of the nursing home scolded fiercely: "Bold maniac, don't you know this is Wang Yuanwai's sedan? Get out of the way quickly!"

Sitting on this stool is not uncomfortable for a while, but it is definitely uncomfortable. As for what will happen after a long time, Wang Wende has not yet thought about it.

Then he saw Ding Ruzhang giving a military salute to an elegant middle-aged man among them.

This gave rise to a sense of tension and oppression that I had never felt before.

The room also has cement walls and cement floors, and there doesn't seem to be even a window.

He said directly, "Since Brother Cheng feels that this matter is not suitable for discussion here, let's change the time and place."

"gender."

Because cement is useless without it, even a giant businessman like Wang Wende cannot own a cement house.

Subsequently, the two people's residences, villas and other properties in Yangzhou were temporarily surrounded and sealed by the Embroidered Clothes and Guards Association's security forces.

In terms of official rank, the magistrate of Yangzhou is the fourth rank, and the counselor of Nanzhili is the third rank!

And Lin Jiading, a doctor from the Ministry of Finance, was only a fifth-rank official.

As a result, when he was about to reach the door of the house, he was stopped by several people.

The Yangzhou Mansion's Xiuyi Health Office has a sign, but it is an inconspicuous vertical sign hanging outside the courtyard.

The elegant middle-aged man just now was actually honored as "Regimental Leader" by Ding Ruzhang, the battalion deputy. He was probably the General Xiuyiwei who was in charge of the Jiangbei area of ​​​​South Zhili, and he was a real general!

Because Wang Wende noticed that the epaulette of the elegant middle-aged man was an oval leaf with two yellow stars.

After Xiuyiwei ignited it, a bright and dazzling light suddenly shot out, covering Wang Wende.

Ding Ruzhang and several embroidered guards who followed him sat down behind the table directly opposite him.

The Xiuyi Guards belong to the personal bodyguards of Emperor Damei, so their current organizational structure is similar to that of the army.

Without attracting the attention of others, Xiu Yiwei successively invited the big salt merchants in Yangzhou to the government office for interrogation.

Although Wang Wende was a wealthy businessman, he was born in this way and had never suffered any hardships. This was the first time he had experienced such a weird and depressing battle, and he suddenly panicked.

"Name."

Only then did the people of Yangzhou realize that a big storm involving officials, merchants and people was about to come.

Cheng Xinyan and Wang Wende both agreed, and Wu Minqing was no exception.

In terms of qualifications, Li Daoying comes from the Wei tribe and is a real veteran in Dawei.

This made Wang Wende increasingly nervous and panicked.

"However, once the court is in charge, they appear immediately and move like thunder. Don't you think this is more terrifying?"

Fang Mingrui doesn't like nonsense.

Wang Wende and other Wang family members passed by the government office and felt a little relieved when they saw that there were still office workers on duty at night.

"Report to the group, Wang Wende has brought it back!"

One of Lin and Chen was a Jinshi in the seventh year of Chongzhen in the former Ming Dynasty, and the other was also a candidate in the Chongzhen period.

So Ding Ruzhang nodded and said, "That's right."

This time, the two of them came under the emperor's orders to do something important.

Wang Wende's heart began to sink.

Wang Wende in the sedan was stunned for a moment, and then his heart became anxious, thinking to himself: Could it be that Xiu Yiwei knew about what Fang Mingrui and Wu Minqing said in Yanchun Tower during the day?
