Chapter 209 The Closing Letter

Chapter 209 The Closing Letter
The big boat was in chaos, and several boatmen jumped into the water repeatedly to search for it. Dozens of other boats also came to assist in the rescue. More than 30 boats and more than [-] sailors struggled for more than half an hour, but still found nothing.

Looking at the surface of the vast Yellow River, several of the attendants burst into tears, Wang Zhongcheng couldn't swim, after so long, how could he still survive?

Wang Welding said harshly: "Go and tell the officials in Tongzhou and Puzhou that the person who fell into the water is Zhongcheng, the royal censor of the imperial court, and order them to organize manpower to salvage. If you are alive, you want to see the person, and if you die, you want to see the corpse!"

Li Ye climbed onto the shore twenty miles downstream, carrying Wang Gong's small dark red suitcase on his back. He climbed onto the shore, and quickly got into a forest not far away.

Under a big rock in the woods, Li Ye found the baggage that had been buried here beforehand. He changed into a moon-white gown. He was wearing a blue short jacket before. He buried the old clothes, and then opened it in front of the big rock. Wang Gong's small suitcase.

There are three ingots of gold in the small suitcase, each about 20 taels, and a piece of beautiful jade. The rest are all kinds of letters and documents, more than 100 pieces, and many warrant notes. There are seven notes from my grandfather Li Linfu alone. One of them ordered Wang Gong to collect evidence of the secret contact between the crown prince and Wei Jian. The Wei Jian case broke out after Tianbao’s five-year Shangyuan Festival, which shows that this note was written by Tianbao in four years at the latest. After six years, Wang Gong Still keeping it intact, this scheming is really terrifying.

Li Ye found some dry and withered branches, took out the fire pocket, burned the letter and the suitcase together, and buried them deeply. At this time, it was getting dark, so he got up and ran towards Pujin Pass.

There is a big town outside Pujin Pass, and there are many inns and taverns in the town. Li Ye returned to his inn, walked into the inn, and only listened to the shopkeeper explaining to a few guests.

"An important official of the imperial court fell into the water while crossing the river. I heard that the ferry will be closed for three days, and the army from Tongguan will also come over. It's useless for you to be anxious. You should stay at ease!"

Li Ye stepped forward and asked, "Why did the important minister of the court fall into the water? Didn't he have followers?"

The shopkeeper pouted, "Who knows? I heard that a drunk fell into the water, so I took him down too."

A guest said: "It should be murder! How could it be such a coincidence, it happened that an important official of the court fell into the water."

"This is a big trouble. The chief officer of Pujinguan can't keep his official hat."

Li Ye went upstairs quickly. His room was on the east side. When he opened the window of the room, he could see the scene of Pujin Pass. There were a large number of peasants gathered at Pujin Pass. There were thousands of people. Holding the torches, like a sea of ​​fire, is very spectacular. The torch team started to search carefully along the Yellow River, and the other side of the Yellow River should be the same.

Li Ye sat down and wrote a letter with a pen, "The goods have been sold, all the worn-out goods have been disposed of, and the money for the goods has been collected. Next, I will go to Hexi to buy goods. Please stay safe in Chang'an!" '

After writing the letter, Li Ye put a small piece of leather into the envelope, which was cut from the suitcase and was only the size of a fingernail. After sealing the envelope, Li Ye came to a mansion in the town. The mansion can store goods, send horses, Exchange, mail delivery, etc.

Li Ye walked into the shop and asked, "Can you send a letter to Chang'an?"

The shopkeeper nodded, "Of course, as long as the address and recipient are clear, there is no problem."

Li Ye's envelope was written very clearly, Wang Xiaomian, the shopkeeper of the Wangji grocery store in the seventh district of Pingkangfang, received it. This Wang Xiaomian is the father of Li Linfu's confidant guard Wang Kuan. Deliver to the grocery store.

The shopkeeper weighed it, and said to Li Ye: "Dalu letter is one hundred letters, and it will be delivered in about half a month. If you need a special delivery, it will be delivered in three days, and the letter will be delivered to me."

Li Ye took out a small piece of broken silver and handed it to the shopkeeper, "Please deliver it as soon as possible!"

The shopkeeper put the letter into a red cloth bag marked Chang'an, and explained to Li Ye with a smile: "Dalu letters are collected every ten days. This is an urgent delivery. Tomorrow, a knight will come to pick it up and rush to Chang'an. Arrive in Chang'an two days later, transfer for one day, and deliver to the recipient on the third day. Don't worry, young master, after spending so much money, it will definitely be delivered.

When Li Ye returned to the inn, he suddenly saw countless people rushing towards Pujin Pass on the street. Seeing that the shopkeeper was also poking his head, Li Ye asked with a smile, "Shopkeeper, what happened?"

"I heard that the official's body was found. It was found on the other side and has been sent over."

"Isn't there another drunk?"

The shopkeeper chuckled, "Who cares about the corpses of drunks? Dozens of people are drowned here every year. Who cares?"

"Then will the ferry open tomorrow?"

"It should be open now, the ferry is so busy! No one dares to seal it until it is absolutely necessary. Now that the body is found, there is no reason to seal the ferry."

In the early morning of the next day, the ferry was opened, but the investigation was very strict. It should be that the body of the drunk was not found. Wang Jian and his entourage suspected that it was a deliberate murder.

Li Ye led his horse to the interrogation gate, and without waiting for the soldiers to ask, he took out his Guerrilla General Fish Talisman and handed it over, "Go to Taiyuan for business!"

The guerrilla general is from the fifth rank, and the leading soldiers dare not offend. With a wave of his hand, the soldiers immediately opened the pole and let them go.

At this time, someone behind shouted: "Let go of me! Why are you arresting me?"

Li Ye looked back and saw a very stout young man being caught by the soldiers. He was wearing a black short jacket, the same as the one he was wearing yesterday.

Li Ye shook his head, led the horse and walked towards the ferry.
At noon, Li Ye found Hei Mao, whose alias was Ding Sheng, at the Yuelai Inn, and Hei Mao reported to Li Ye the process of assassinating Wang Xian.

"It's actually very simple. I heard from his servant that there were snakes infesting the house. He bought a very poisonous golden krait in the market and threw it on Wang Xian's bed at night. His body was already stiff in the morning. .”

"Has their family reported to the official?" Li Ye asked again.

"I didn't report to the officials, but another corpse was brought to his house today, and a large number of officials rushed to his house."

Li Ye smiled and said, "Let's pack up and go!"

In Pingkangfang, Chang'an, an urgent delivery man in a red and black soap suit rushed to the front of Wangji grocery store, "Shopkeeper, I have your urgent mail!"

The shopkeeper Wang Xiaomian hurried out to take the letter. Seeing a black triangle symbol on the upper right corner of the envelope, he nodded and said, "I accept it, thank you!"

Wang Xiaomian asked his wife to watch the store, and he walked quickly to Xiangguo's mansion with the letter.
The guard Wang Kuan presented the letter to Li Linfu, and Li Linfu nodded, "You go!"

Wang Kuan saluted and retreated.

Li Linfu sat at the table, opened the letter and read it again, and then looked at the small piece of dark red leather that fell out of the envelope. The grandson had already succeeded and destroyed all Wang Gong's letters.

Li Linfu sighed in a low voice. After his grandson left, he felt alone and alone.

 Historically, Wang Gong's case broke out in Tianbao's 11th and [-]th years. After Li Linfu was implicated, he completely lost the trust of the emperor Li Longji, and then fell ill, and he was very sick. At this time, he has not been dismissed.

  But Li Longji had disappeared. He wanted to beg Li Longji to forgive his family, but he had no chance. Before he died, he asked Yang Guozhong for forgiveness, but Yang Guozhong didn't agree.

  Li Linfu's family was liquidated in the 12th year of Tianbao. They were framed by Yang Guozhong and An Lushan.

  In this book, Wang Gong should be eradicated in advance, although it will weaken Li Linfu's strength, but because Wang Gong knows too much, once the crime happens, Li Linfu's background will be wiped out, so killing him in advance is not a bad thing.

  Finally, Lao Gao asks for a monthly pass, and the brothers who have a monthly pass in their hands should vote for Lao Gao!
  There are also subscriptions, it is not easy to write a book, and I hope the genuine support.
