Daming: The most ruthless tyrant in history

Chapter 714 Living in Fear

"It's over, it's all over now!"

Beijing.

Feng's house.

In the study room full of debris, Feng Quan sat in the official hat chair with a dull expression. He looked as if his father had died.

"Master, how about we escape from the capital?"

In the study, an old servant looked at Feng Quan in panic and said, "Why don't we leave the capital first before the situation gets too bad...to the point where it's out of control?"

"If we escape from the capital, where can we go?!"

Feng Quan glared and questioned: "Tell me where we can go!!"

"Go to Henan and find the master."

The old servant's hands were trembling slightly, and he spoke in panic, "Yes, go find the master. As long as the master is there, there is still room for mediation."

"Ha ha!"

Feng Quan laughed and pointed at the old servant, saying, "If Li Hongji gives up everything, not only me, but my father will also be investigated."

The old servant was silent.

He never imagined that things would change so quickly.

The private minting of new coins was done so secretly that in order to avoid being investigated later, a group of people were specially selected to do it first.

But now everything is messed up.

Linhuai Marquis Li Hongji was captured by the detective team. Not only Feng Quan did not expect this, but even the other core members of the group did not expect this.

There was clearly a group of people blocking them in front, so why was Li Hongji found?

In that massive joint arrest operation, only a small group of people selected by Feng Quan and his team were arrested, which was not a big deal.

They are just a bunch of scapegoats. Even if they are all caught, it won’t matter.

The only thing is that Feng Quan would be at risk of being exposed.

But in this matter, the cunning Feng Quan had already grasped the lifeline, not only the scapegoats, but also the group hiding behind the scenes.

Originally Feng Quan was not worried, and even felt a lot more relieved.

After all, he has already planned a way out.

As long as the scapegoats who were caught are afraid of their secrets and take all the blame on themselves, the counterfeit currency issue can be declared over.

The Feng family made a lot of money from the private minting and circulation of counterfeit currency.

However, the arrest of Li Hongji completely disrupted Feng Quan's plan, and even made Feng Quan, who was frightened, want to meet those people.

The results were surprisingly consistent.

Every time they were rejected.

"The only thing we can hope for now is that Li Hongji can be tougher in his words." Feng Quan's face revealed expressions of fear and excitement, and he looked very strange.

"Yes, there must be someone who has something on Li Hongji. As long as Li Hongji is worried, this young master will be safe."

is it possible?

Seeing Feng Quan like this, the old servant didn't say anything, but he was secretly worried in his heart.

Without any warning, such a big commotion broke out in the capital, and there was not even any news beforehand. Even Li Hongji himself was captured directly from the Linhuai Marquis Mansion by the detective team.

No one knows how much inside information the detective team led by Jiang Chen and He Kai has mastered.

fear.

panic.

disturbed.

Various emotions intertwined together, making the old servant think more and more. This feeling of being unable to control the situation was too tormenting. "Master! It's not good!!"

In this situation, a scream was heard, making Feng Quan's heart beat faster. At this moment, Feng Quan's legs were weak and his hands were shaking.

To the extent that in this situation, he couldn't even stand up.

"Master! The Royal Guards are here."

A servant in blue clothes ran into the study with a panicked look and fear in his words. Feng Quan felt a black screen before his eyes when he heard this.

Is it ever going to end? !
Why are the Jinyiwei also alarmed? ! ?
"hurry up!"

"Follow!"

At this moment, inside Feng's residence, groups of Jinyiwei wearing imperial army uniforms and carrying goose-feather swords were running in various directions under the command of their chief officers.

The entire Feng residence was shrouded in fear.

All the servants in the Feng family were terrified.

"Tell me...what is the origin of this detective team?" At that time, Xu Xianchun, who was surrounded and walked forward in a group of people, holding the handle of Xiuchun Knife, said to Tian Ergeng beside him.

"They were short of manpower, so someone from the palace came and asked me to dispatch the Imperial Guards. Speaking of which, for a major case like this, shouldn't my guards be involved?"

"And the National Taxation Bureau's Tax Police Corps is also quite impressive. All its members are equipped with Hongwu-style flintlock rifles. I, the Jinyiwei, don't have such treatment."

"I don't know."

Tian Ergeng looked calm and looked straight ahead, "Let's not talk about these unclear things. Let's finish the things at hand first."

"This Feng Quan is really something. He actually hooked up with Li Hongji. Isn't he from the Hanlin Academy? According to the civil servants, this is the most noble official."

"Shit!"

Xu Xianchun showed disdain on his face and sneered: "No matter how noble he is, he is still a human being. As a human being, he has seven emotions and six desires. Look, he has fallen into the hands of the detective team."

"Speaking of which, this detective team is pretty good. They even have a big jail. The detective team has everything that our Jinyiwei has. They also have things that our Jinyiwei doesn't have. But this detective team is controlled by civil officials. This is really strange."

When he said this, Xu Xianchun raised his eyebrows slightly and looked at Tian Ergeng.

He said these words on purpose.

The appearance of the detective team implicated more people than just those who were arrested.

“It’s quite strange.”

Tian Ergeng knew all about Xu Xianchun's little thoughts. He looked around and raised the corner of his mouth slightly, "But does this have anything to do with us? If we really have to worry, shouldn't that person be more worried?"

When he said this, Tian Ergeng showed a meaningful expression.

Xu Xianchun was stunned for a moment, then he understood.

Yes.

No matter how powerful this detective team is, the ones who should have a headache right now should not be them but Luo Sigong. After all, if the detective team is really valued by the emperor, then how should the Jinyiwei deal with themselves in the future? This is the problem.

But as the old saying goes, if the sky falls, there is someone tall to hold it up. In this unclear situation, instead of worrying about it, it is better to go with the flow.

"Someone, come and arrest the traitor Feng Quan for me!"

Thinking of this, Xu Xianchun gathered his thoughts, stretched out his hand and shouted, "Don't let this traitor escape!!"

"Here!"

The group of Jinyiwei flag officers behind him shouted, and then under the gaze of Tian Ergeng and Xu Xianchun, they quickly ran towards the inner courtyard in front of them.

Looking at the scene in front of him, Tian Ergeng slowed down his pace. Although there was no sign of abnormality on his face, he was secretly wondering in his heart, what exactly does this detective team do?

Why does the emperor value it so much?
Will the factory guards be restricted in the future?

A series of thoughts emerged in Tian Ergeng's mind...
