Yin Changsheng

Chapter 114 Goodbye Grandpa Yao

Jiang Li's sudden sentence, ignoring Lin Jiaying's identity at the beginning really confuses me. Apart from being the mayor of Jinling Town, what other identity does Lin Jiaying have?

After thinking hard for a long time, I looked at Jiang Li blankly, "Lin Jiaying is Lin Yongye's father."

Jiang Li smiled and told me, "The whole matter is not as simple as you think. Go back and ask Wang Duangong to see if you can find anything from him."

I nodded and left here with Jiang Li.

As soon as we reached the gate of the Town God's Temple, an errand came up to us and whispered, "Jiang Shizu, someone wants to see you."

I looked at Jiang Li with a look of surprise, it's really strange that there are people in the Town God's Temple who want to see Jiang Li.

Jiang Li didn't ask who wanted to see him, but just gave a light grace and let the messenger lead the way.

While passing by the Santu River, he saw an iron pear tree nearby, which was in full bloom and was extremely beautiful. Jiang Li saw it too, and suddenly smiled, but it was only a flash, and soon he smiled again, and continued to follow the ghost.

I asked Jiang Li who was looking for him.

Jiang Li just smiled and told me, you will know when you go.Seeing his relaxed face, Jiang Li seemed to have already guessed who it was, but it was just a trick, but I was extremely curious about being played by him like this.

Finally, the errand took us to the gate with the word "Ministry of Rites" written on it.

It was only then that I realized that Jiang Li had told me before that the administrative mechanism of the Yin Division is still the ancient system, including the Town God’s Temple, which is also divided into six divisions of officials, households, rites, soldiers, criminals, and workers. The last time I came to the Yin Division to find my father When I was there, I went to the Ministry of Punishment, but the Ministry of Punishment is much more majestic than here, and there is a bronze door that needs to be pushed open by gravity. In comparison, the Temple of the City God is much simpler than Fengdu City.

The errand sent us to the door, then turned and left.

Although the entrance of the main hall of the Ministry of Rites is not as splendid as the City God's Hall, it is not inferior.

Jiang Li and I looked at each other, Jiang Li didn't say much, he just patted my shoulder and signaled to let me in.

Walking in, an old man wearing an official uniform was sitting in front of the chopping board of the Ministry of Etiquette, and this old man was Grandpa Yao whom I hadn’t seen for a long time. I was so excited that I almost cried.

I thought that Grandpa Yao must be tortured when he was taken to the underworld, but I didn't expect that he was forced to be a petty official in the Town God's Temple, which is fine.

Grandpa Yao told us that he did not expect that he could still live until now. He thought that the Yin Division would directly kick his name off and make him die, but he did not expect to let him come to Chenghuang Temple to manage the Ritual Department.

Grandpa Yao hugged me into his arms and kept saying, "Chen Xiao has grown taller, taller."

Probably because Jiang Li is by my side every day, so I can't feel that I have grown taller, but Grandpa Yao and I haven't seen each other for a long time, so I can tell at a glance that I have grown taller.

For a while, Grandpa Yao’s eyes were red, and he asked about the situation of the second grandpa. I told him that the second grandpa was getting old quickly, and his health was getting worse. Grandpa Yao wiped his tears and said, the Chen family is unfortunate, and we will be brothers in the next life .

Jiang Li had a deep expression on his face, sighed and said, "It seems that when the Yin Division employs people, it doesn't seem to be a last resort. There's a storm coming."

Grandpa Yao nodded, "That's why I want to see you." After a long silence, Grandpa Yao continued, "Then Young Master Lin in Jinling Town is safe and well?"

Jiang Li nodded and told him, "He's fine."

Grandpa Yao looked serious, and whispered softly as if he was afraid of being overheard, "There are people above who want to arrest him, but they can't find anyone else. I guess it has something to do with Yin Changsheng's matter, otherwise there will be no way to mobilize people to find him alone." , The central government dispatched the ten handsome ghost kings, day tour, night tour, impermanence, bull head, horse face, leopard tail, bird beak, fish gills, and wasp, all out to find him specifically, this is not a small move."

What Grandpa Yao said made us feel a little strange. This Lin Yongye's father was seduced by someone, and now he wants to arrest Lin Yongye. How did this father and son provoke the underworld.

Jiang Li was silent for a while, and then asked Grandpa Yao that the Yin Division was so secretive about this matter, how did he get the news.

Grandpa Yao told us, "It's strange to say that a few days ago, that old blind man came to me and told me that you were going to come to the Town God's Temple in a few days, and told me to tell you to protect Lin Yongye and take the above told me about it.”

Old blind man, since we found out that his cemetery was empty last time, we haven’t heard from him anymore. He disappeared, and now he suddenly appeared again.

Jiang Li said that he was probably the descendant of Jiang Shang, and Jiang Shang was a member of King Wu of Zhou. Logically speaking, the old blind man should not come to pass messages to Grandpa Yao, which is unreasonable.

Jiang Li nodded and said, "He wants us to destroy the secret conspiracy."

Although he didn't know the old blind man's intentions, Jiang Li believed that the old blind man should be helping us from various behaviors.

Grandpa Yao said that the old blind man told him that the current situation will change drastically. He is not very capable and has a little research in the art of seeking power.

Jiang Li said in a secretive way, "So I wanted to be a counselor."

Most of the counselors in ancient times often used the status of "recipients", "military advisers", and "staff staff" to advise their "masters" and "lords", solve problems, and sometimes even repay them with death. Noble ministers and counselors mainly play the role of helping people analyze the complex situations they face and giving suggestions on how to deal with them.

Grandpa Yao frowned, feeling a little worried, "What if it's a spy sent by the Zhou family."

Jiang Li nodded, "It's impossible to guard against, wait and see what happens, and see what he wants to do."

Jiang Li and I can't wait for a long time for fear that people will stare at Grandpa Yao and cause trouble for him instead. After all, he is a member of the Yin Division, so we must not let people find out that he has two minds.

After reluctantly saying goodbye to Grandpa Yao, he withdrew and left.

All the way out of Yinsi, these errants seemed to be looking at us, the defensive eyes were extremely strange.

Back at the mayor's house, Wang Duanzheng was sitting in the living room, holding a big hookah pipe in his hand, smoking the pipe, with a sad face.Seeing Jiang Li and I coming back suddenly, Wang Duangong looked very strange, and after a while he said, "The body was taken away, I couldn't stop it."

Only then did I realize that Wang Duangong had a bluish mark on his face, probably because he had been beaten.

Jiang Li asked Wang Duan what happened.

Wang Duangong told us that just as we were leaving, two people came suddenly, saying that people from Fengdu Tianzidian were doing business for the Yin Division and insisted on taking away Lin Jiaying's body. Wang Duangong would definitely not let him, so they beat him up. , Li Jiaying's physical body was also taken away.

I clenched my fists angrily, and said indignantly, "This underworld is too unkind to do things, even hitting people!"

Jiang Li told us that in the Palace of the Son of Heaven, only the four major judges live, and there is no one else except them.It's just that I didn't expect that the Yin Division was so arrogant and unreasonable in doing things, talking about rules all the time, but they themselves never followed the rules.

Wang Duangong said dejectedly, "It's all my fault, it's useless, and I couldn't help you."

At this time, Jiang Li suddenly frowned, and said extremely harshly, "What an Infernal Affairs."

Wang Duangong's eyes trembled, and his face immediately became irritable, "Jiang Daochang, what do you mean by that? Could it be that I lied to you! I told you immediately what happened to Lin Jiaying, and besides, I have no grievances with him, Can I still hurt him!"

Seeing Wang Duangong be furious, I also feel that Jiang Li has misunderstood.

But then, Jiang Li just snorted softly, with a serious face, "It is undeniable that you have no grievances or enmities with him, but if you are from the Yin Division, then it doesn't matter whether you have any grudges with him or not, you just You just have to follow orders."

Wang Duan stomped his feet angrily, covered the blue marks on his face and said, "Jiang Daochang, why are you such a person, I was beaten like this just now to protect Lin Jiaying's body, now you think it was me I did it. I don't know where it rushed to you, you want to think like this!"

Jiang Li's eyes were sharp and serious, "The people in the Yin Division really know my whereabouts like the back of their hands, and every step is taken when I'm not around. It shouldn't be a coincidence, right?"

When Jiang Li said this, I felt that things were a bit strange. His dealings with Wang Duangong, who stole my Fayin Sword before, and almost killed me later, all these things were attributed to his saving Lin Yongye.

And he always seems to find just the right reason.

Seeing that Wang Duangong insisted that he had nothing to do with him, Jiang Li didn't bother to pursue it any longer.

Back in the house, Jiang Li told me that although Wang Duangong insisted that he was fine, he should not have been manipulating the whole matter behind the scenes, and he was also following orders. It should be just like what City God said, they were all small officials in the whole matter , even the King of Hades of the Ten Palaces may not know it clearly, it must be arranged by King Wu Cheng himself.

Wang Duangong should be from the Yin Division, but what his purpose is, Jiang Li is still not sure, he just thinks that he should be one of the top ten Yin commanders in the Yin Division. King Wu Cheng arranged him next to Lin Jiaying, just like Du Like the appearance of Hai, they are all pawns that have been arranged long ago.

I asked Jiang Li, shall we go to Fengdu?
Jiang Li shook his head and told me, the time has not yet come, causality, Fengdu City must go, although Lin Yongye is destined to be with me, it does not mean that I can help his father, this matter should be let Lin Yongye Ye knows that whether his father can be saved depends on whether Lin Yongye has this ability, and the person we are going to find should be Lin Yongye.
