Back to the end of Ming Dynasty to be a warlord

Chapter 117 The So-Called Search

Section 110 VI So-called search

Tian Wan can also use names, and there is no arbitrary search of the building. It seems that Tian Wan still gave Jinchai Lou some face.

Now that he is in Nanjing, it is impossible for Tian Wan not to know the name of Jinchai Tower.

Jinchai Building has become famous in Nanjing, and has contacts with many officials. The biggest background is that Yang Chao has some faint relationship with Zhou Yanru.

Zhou Yanru is now the first assistant, and Tian Wan is also a bit wary.

Yang Chao couldn't help laughing at himself, he was acting like a bully, Tian Wan probably couldn't imagine that he had nothing to do with Zhou Yanru.

At the same time, he immediately pulled Kang Hui and went out to meet the Commander of Jin Yiwei, Tian Wan, the father-in-law of Emperor Chongzhen.

Two rows of guards in Jinyi were lined up on both sides of the gate of the Jinchai Tower. In the middle was a middle-aged man with a big belly, wearing the uniform of a commander in Jinyiwei, walking forward with standard official steps.

Yang Chao and Kang Hui walked to the gate, and when they saw this scene, they both knelt down on the ground.

"Young official Yang Chao (Cao Min Kanghui), meet Mr. Tian!"

Both of them lowered their heads, listening to the footsteps getting closer, and the last voice sounded.

"Hmph, get up, Mr. Yang!"

Tian Wan said to Yang Chao, and walked past Yang Chao.

"Get up too."

When walking past Kang Hui, Tian Wan didn't even look at him, and said casually
Only then did Kang Hui stand up, and with a flattering bow, he led the way.

……

"Prince Wang, do you think sister Dong and sister Chen will be fine?"

At this time, on a cargo ship sailing from Zhenjiang to Suzhou, a woman walked back and forth in the cabin, looking anxious.

"Miss Liu, don't worry, Brother Yang never does anything he is not sure about!"

A handsome young man comforted him.

These two people are Liu Rushi and Wang Xiao.

Wang Xiao originally thought that fleeing with the famous prostitute Liu Rushi would be a romantic affair, and it must be full of fun, but he didn't want to be so boring.

Along the way, Liu Rushi completely showed the attitude of an ordinary daughter, anxious, fearful, without assertiveness, and not at all as magnanimous as she usually shows.

Liu Rushi said: "Young Master Yang has great talent, so he should be able to deal with it."

Liu Rushi hoped that Yang Chao could deal with it.

Liu Rushi couldn't help but think back to the story of Yang Chao, from helping Zhou Rui see herself, to helping Ruan Dacheng in the meeting, participating in the operation and Zhou Yanru as the first assistant, Yang Chao's performance time and time again impressed her, and this time is definitely no exception , Yang Chao will definitely succeed!

That day when Liu Rushi left the Jinchai Building, she planned to go to Li Xiangjun, Gu Mei and the other sisters to discuss it, but was intercepted by someone sent by Wang Xiao on the way, and invited her directly to a boat by the river. So Yang Fan went directly to the river and left Nanjing.

On the boat, Liu Rushi knew Yang Chao's good intentions. Not only did he not blame Yang Chao for scolding her at that time, but he was looking forward to it.

I hope Yang Chao can help his sisters get through this crisis.

But Liu Rushi was still anxious, fearing that Dong Xiaowan and Chen Yuanyuan would not be able to escape this catastrophe.

At this time, Dong Xiaowan and Chen Yuanyuan were also squeezed into a small cabin, but they behaved differently from Liu Rushi. If they were ordinary women, they should be trembling at this time, but the two of them looked awe-inspiring. He looks like he is going to die generously.

"Come on!"

Dong Xiaowan shouted coldly.

The oilcloth curtain of the boat was lifted, and the head of an old servant stuck out.

"What's the girl's order?"

asked the old servant.

Dong Xiaowan said: "Bring the wine!"

The old servant didn't speak, and silently brought a jar of wine and a few wine bowls from outside, and then went out on his own.

Dong Xiaowan opened the wine seal, and a pungent smell came up, it was strong wine produced by Xiaolingwei.

This boat is a wine boat, not a painting boat, not a flower boat.

Instead, the boat that delivered wine to Jinchailou yesterday was temporarily detained by Jinchailou and had to be borrowed for a few days.

The boat is not big, less than three feet from the beginning to the end, and a boatman is supporting the pole.

"Sister Chen, it's done!"

Dong Xiaowan poured out two bowls of wine, and each of them took a bowl with Chen Yuanyuan.

Although Chen Yuanyuan's expression was also resolute, but there was a look of worry like ashes, and also a kind of sadness of resignation.

Dong Xiaowan is also resolute, but it is a kind of resentment that hates the sky and injustice.

The strong wine tasted spicy, and the two weak women coughed at the same time after drinking it.

Coughing and coughing, the two women suddenly hugged each other and cried bitterly.

"Sister Chen, there is also a companion on Huangquan Road, we will be sisters in the next life!"

"Good sister, don't be a human again in the next life, it's too hard to be a human."

The two of them had just been kicked out of the Jinchai Tower and put on this small boat. Kang Hui told them that they were going to be sent to Tianwan, and that they had to be obedient and not allow themselves to die, otherwise they would be implicated. Liu Rushi.

Therefore, although the two women were afraid, although they were afraid, and although they were determined to die, they did not intend to commit suicide before they were sent to Tian Wan.

"Just be a man, don't be a woman."

"Be a woman and don't be a brothel woman."

The two women wept one sentence at a time.

……

Yang Chao and Kang Hui invited Tian Wan to an elegant room, asked the maid to serve tea, and immediately asked someone to buy food and drinks.

"Boss Yang, hand him over!"

Unexpectedly, Tian Wan's first sentence after sitting down was an important person.

Kang Hui was taken aback for a moment, feeling his heartbeat suddenly stop.

Yang Chao groaned, but he laughed. He glanced at Kang Hui at the side, a little afraid that Kang Hui would reveal his secrets, so he sent him to prepare for singing and dancing first.

However, he was blocked by several Jinyi guards accompanied by Tian Wan.

"I don't know who Mr. Tian wants to be in charge of the officials?"

Yang Chao poured tea for Tian Wan himself, and asked with a smile.

Tian Wan's first sentence also startled Yang Chao, but Yang Chao guessed that Tian Wan was just defrauding him. Tian Wan could not be sure that the person was in the Jinchai Building, otherwise he would not have come in to ask for someone, but would have brought someone to seal the building. Rob people.

Tian Wan smiled, "Of course it's Dong Xiaowan and Chen Yuanyuan, the two wanted criminals!"

Yang Chao was stunned: "These two officials have also heard about it. If the official remembers correctly, these two must be famous prostitutes in Suzhou."

Yang Chao said "lower official" to highlight his official status. Although a military officer is lowly now, having an official status, Yang Chao always feels that it should be able to play a role, at least he will not be manipulated casually like ordinary people.

Tian Wan sneered and said, "Mr. Yang still wants to play tricks on me. Someone secretly reported that the two of them are hiding in the golden hairpin building."

Yang Chao looked innocent: "Oh, Mr. Tian is well aware that even if a villain has eight guts, he would not dare to hide the important criminal. What's more, these two people are not relatives or relatives of the lower officials, and have nothing to do with them. Why should I hide them?" .My lord must have been deceived."

Tian Wan, a Jin Yiwei, said in Tian Wan's ear at this time: "My lord, Chen Yuanyuan and Dong Xiaowan were taken away by Liu Rushi. My subordinates have found out clearly that Liu Rushi came here a few days ago."

Jin Yiwei's voice was not low, and Yang Chao could hear it clearly, even speaking to Yang Chao.

Tian Wan snorted, "General Manager Yang, what else do you have to say?"

Yang Chao said with a wry smile: "Miss Liu did come here a few days ago. To tell you the truth, she asked for help from the lower official, but the lower official didn't agree, and she even quarreled with the lower official, and was kicked out by the latter !"

Tian Wan asked Jin Yiwei, "Is it true?"

Jin Yiwei said: "Liu Rushi was indeed carried out by someone, and he disappeared afterwards!"

In fact, Tian Wan knew all about these things, but he asked Yang Chao on purpose.

Tian Wan said: "Where did Liu Rushi go, you always know!"

Yang Chao shook his head and said, "Forgive me, my lord. Liu Ru is a woman who has a lot of contacts and knows many high-ranking officials and nobles. I really don't know where she has gone."

Tian Wan said: "Hmph, I don't know! I think you are trying to cover up."

Tian Wan was holding the tea bowl and immediately threw it on the table, causing the tea to spill out completely.

"You are too confused to be an official!"

Seeing that Tian Wan was angry, Yang Chao immediately knelt down knowingly, not even daring to say anything.

Tian Wan snorted coldly again: "Since you dare not, then hand him over."

Yang Chao said bitterly: "Your Excellency, you should see clearly. The two important criminals are really not here with the officials. I hope you can see clearly."

As he spoke, he quietly took out a ticket and stuffed it into Tian Wan's hand, not forgetting to add a sentence: "Your Excellency, see clearly!"

Tian Wan glanced at it, and saw 2000 taels written on the ticket, and accepted it quietly.

Tian Wan collected the money and then spoke kindly: "Let's talk about it, Yang."

Only then did Yang Chao stand up and said, "Lord Xie Tian."

Tian Wan said: "Is it really not with you?"

Yang Chao said with a 'sincere' face: "It's really not with me!"

Tian Wan said: "Very well, you dare to ask me to do a search!"

Yang Chao said: "Your Excellency, feel free to search, but this is Mr. Ruan Dacheng's home. When your Excellency is searching, you must be merciful. If you break Mr. Ruan's things, the officials will not be able to explain it."

Tian Wan glared at Yang Chao: "Ruan Dacheng, that eunuch!"

Naturally, Tian Wan knew that Jinchai Building used to be Ruan Dacheng's home, and now that the eunuchs had been blown to ashes, Tian Wan naturally didn't have to be afraid of any eunuchs.

Yang Chao sneered a few times: "Actually, Mr. Ruan is quite remorseful. A few months ago, he helped Duke Zhou Yusheng appeal again, and I'm lucky to have done my part!"

Yang Chao faintly mentioned Zhou Yanru at this time, implying that Tian Wan Jinchai Building has a deep background.

Upon hearing Zhou Yanru's name, Tian Wan curled his lips lightly, snorted and said, "I have my own discretion."

After finishing speaking, he called the two Jinyi guards around him to take someone to search, and at the same time told them not to break things, which was considered a face for Yang Chao.

His subordinates went to search, Tian Wan asked Yang Chao to sit down and drink tea with him.

Tian Wan didn't need to go in person, because he knew that the search was just going through the motions and there would be no results.

Tian Wan didn't think that Chen Yuanyuan and Dong Xiaowan were hiding in the Jinchai Building, because there was no information to prove that the two were related to the Jinchai Building, nor was there any evidence to prove that Yang Chao had friendship with those two, but Tian Wan still wanted to He came here just like he went to Meixianglou and Meilou, but it was just for blackmail.

Although Liu Rushi did appear in Jinchai Tower a few days ago, Liu Rushi went to Meixiang Tower and Bian's house more often.

It's just that the last place where Liu Rushi appeared a few days ago was in the Jinchai Building. Grasping this point can make Tian Wanda make a big fuss.

The purpose? It's just to blackmail some money. Now that the money has been collected, there is no need to act more. Time is running out. There are so many brothels in Nanjing waiting to be "searched" one by one.

It's the last week before it's on the shelves, and the collection is bleak. It will be updated this Wednesday. I hope everyone can help to collect it.
