Chapter 35213523【Distress note】
“Mr. Li, what else can I do?” Zhang Shun stopped and asked in confusion.
"I have found out everything about the Queen Mother's instructions." Xiang Nan said, "Please father-in-law forward this letter to the Queen Mother."
“Xiangong Li is worthy of being a second-ranked Jinshi and a third-level scholar. He can detect the case so quickly. It’s really amazing.” Zhang Shun was overjoyed when he heard this and praised him repeatedly.
After Zhang Shun left, Xiang Nan, Sun Xiaohong, and Sun Baifa also got up and returned to the room.
Having just walked halfway, I met Jing Wuming head-on.
“It turns out to be Brother Jing.” Xiang Nan raised his hands and said, “It’s a coincidence that we meet here.”
“I am here to see Miss Yang on the order of the leader of the gang.” Jing Wuming explained.
Yesterday, Fairy Jinghong warned Shangguan Fei. After Shangguan Fei returned, he told Shangguan Jinhong in a garbled way.
Shangguan Jinhong was naturally furious when he learned that he was being threatened, so he sent Jing Wuming to find out what Fairy Jinghong meant.
"I understand." Xiang Nan nodded, and then said, "Brother Jing, please tell the leader of the Shangguan Gang that there is progress in the case of the Golden Prince Consort."
He then told the story of Jiang Nanyue, Mother-in-law Ji Ming, Fairy Jinghong, and the people behind the scenes. "This matter is no longer a matter of fifty thousand official silver. I hope the leader of the Shangguan Gang will make a careful decision."
Jing Wuming was also shocked when he heard this. He didn't expect that there would be such a big conspiracy behind the disappearance of the prince-in-law and the theft of treasury silver.
Once something goes wrong, I am afraid that the Money Gang's decades-long foundation will be destroyed. "Thank you Li Tanhua for reminding me. I will tell the gang leader next time."
…
After bidding farewell to Jing Wuming, Xiang Nan, Sun Xiaohong and Sun Baifa returned to the room.
After opening the gift box, I saw that in addition to a fine Changbai Mountain wild ginseng, there was also a note with eight words written on it: "My son-in-law is in danger, my mother rescues me."
“This seems to be the light from the Prince Consort’s gold.” Sun Xiaohong deduced after reading the note, “I wonder if it’s true?”
"Since the Queen Mother sent someone to send it, it means that the handwriting on the note has been verified and should be the handwriting of the Prince Consort." Xiang Nan nodded, "But what is his purpose in sending this note? "
“He may still be alive now, but he is imprisoned, so he wrote a letter asking the Queen Mother to save him.” Sun Xiaohong analyzed.
"Since he could write a letter asking for help, why didn't he write the place where he was imprisoned and the person who imprisoned him?" Xiang Nan asked, "How can anyone save him with just these two sentences?"
“That makes sense.” Sun Xiaohong was stunned for a moment, then nodded.
Since the Golden Prince Consort can write letters asking for help, why not write down the location and the culprit? Isn't this a very strange thing?
"So in my opinion, the purpose of him writing this letter, or someone asking him to write this letter, is not to ask people to save him, but to send out a threat." Xiang Nan deduced, "It not only makes the Queen Mother and Princess believe The prince-in-law is still alive, and yet they are worried about her, and they are afraid of it."
"The next step is to find out the real culprit behind the scenes. If you find him, you will also find the prince-in-law." Xiang Nan said, "Do you think it's so strange that Mr. Fang's arrest came so suddenly today?" "Well, it is indeed strange. Capital City There are so many people, why did he only find trouble with you, eldest brother? I think there must be someone behind the scenes." Sun Xiaohong nodded.
"Yes, that's what I thought, so I'm going to meet him." Xiang Nan said with a smile, "The person who instigated him may be the real murderer behind the scenes. After all, Jing Zhao's chief arrester is not Anyone can be driven by it.”
“You’re right.” Sun Xiaohong nodded immediately.
…
Xiang Nan and Sun Xiaohong then went to Jingzhao Mansion to visit Mr. Fang.
At the same time, after meeting Fairy Jinghong, Jing Wuming also returned to the Qiang Gang to share the helm and conveyed Xiang Nan's words to Shangguan Jinhong.
“My mother-in-law, who has three thousand feet of gray hair, is still alive?” Shangguan Jinhong was also shocked after hearing this.
These two are long-established masters. They have not been around in the world for decades. They thought they were dead long ago, but they didn't expect to be gathered in the capital now.
“I didn’t expect there was such a conspiracy behind the scenes.” Shangguan Jinhong said horrifiedly. Being involved in a major treason case even made him, the leader of the money gang, shudder.
"It's no wonder that Yang Yan, a little girl, dares to threaten me. It turns out there is a big shot behind her backing her." Shangguan Jinhong said again.
"Gang leader, this is no longer as simple as the theft of treasury silver, but a major crime of treason. In my opinion, it is better for us not to get involved." Jing Wuming said to Shangguan Jin Hong, "Otherwise, I'm afraid The decades-old foundation of our money gang may be destroyed in one day.”
"Humph, Jing Wuming, although your name is Wuming and you seem to be brave and unafraid of death, you are actually a coward." At this moment, Shangguan Fei broke in from the door and said, "Dad, in my opinion , not only should we not shy away, but we must actively participate in it.
Once we make the right bet, it is the result of following the dragon. At that time, with the support of the royal family, our money gang will not only do business in the five provinces of Shanxi, Chahar, Hebei, Shandong and Henan, but also the business in the sixty-three provinces of the south, seventh and north, all will belong to our money gang.
How much money and power that is! Dad, this opportunity is too rare and must not be missed. "
Hearing what he said, Shangguan Jinhong's eyes suddenly lit up.
The meaning of "crisis" is that there is opportunity in danger. It is naturally a huge danger to seek to usurp the throne, but once you serve the dragon, you can not only be promoted to a higher position, be granted the title of marquis and become prime minister, but you can also extend the power of the money gang to the whole country...
At that time, he will be both powerful and powerful. Even the leader of the martial arts alliance will not be as prestigious as him.
"Gang leader, this matter is too dangerous. So what if we get the right treasure? Although Wu Ming has read very few books, he has also heard the saying, 'When the birds die, the good bow is hidden. When the cunning rabbit dies, the lackeys are cooked.' .
Emperors of all dynasties have always been unfaithful. They can only share adversity, but not wealth and honor. When we work for them, if we lose, we will be completely defeated. Even if we win, it may not end well. Gang leaders must think twice and don't seek skin from a tiger. "Jing Wuming was very moved when he saw Shangguan Jinhong and immediately spoke to persuade him.
After the emperors of the past dynasties succeeded, they would take action on the heroes.
King Gou Jian of Yue successfully restored his country with the support of loyal ministers such as Fan Li and Wen Zhong, but Wen Zhong was sentenced to death by Gou Jian; after Han Emperor Liu Bang succeeded to the throne, Han Xin, Ying Bu and other princes with different surnames were also killed one after another; after Ming Taizu Zhu Yuanzhang succeeded to the throne , Li Shanchang, Lan Yu, Hu Weiyong, Zhu Liangzu... more than 20 founding officials were all killed.
Hence participating in court battles, if you lose, your family will be confiscated and your clan will be destroyed, and you will be completely defeated. Even if you win, you may not be able to enjoy wealth and fame forever. This business cannot be done.
Hearing what Jing Wuming said, Shangguan Jinhong hesitated again.
