Chapter 1524 Doubts
Qiu Xinggong now feels that everyone is suspected of killing his son...
Not only Fang Jun and Gao Shilian, but Changsun Wuji is also a vicious person!
This "yin man" is the most cunning and cunning, and seems to have no motive for killing Qiu Shenji, but who knows if this old fox is trying to blame Fang Junyi or Gao Shilian? He parted ways with Changsun Wuji because of anger. If this evil person framed the blame and made him mistakenly identify the murderer as one of Gao Shilian and Fang Jun, it would be easy to kill two birds with one stone...
Even Li Yuanjing, the king of Jing who seems to be the most unlikely, is not reliable, because once he suspects that the murderer is Gao Shilian, Fang Jun or any one of Changsun Wuji, he will rely on Li Yuanjing with all his heart, because only with the help of Li Yuanjing Only with the power can you have the possibility of revenge...
The more I think about it, the more my head hurts. My thoughts are like the endless darkness in front of me, with no light and no clue.
Who is the murderer?
Qiu Xinggong suddenly broke out in cold sweat. Since when did he find himself in such a situation where he was besieged on all sides?
After looking at the many forces around me, none of them are worthy of my full devotion...
"Commander..."
Bu Qu, who was responsible for tracking and investigating Fang Jun, tiptoed into the dark main hall and said in a deep voice: "Just now, Royal Navy Su Dingfang led dozens of ships transporting rice from Linyi State to arrive outside Chang'an City. According to the speed of the ship, Shao On the night when Lang Jun was killed...the fleet should have passed through Xijin Ferry, heading north from the Yangtze River and entering Hangou."
Qiu Xinggong was shocked, and his two eyes glowed fiercely in the darkness!
"What a coincidence?"
*****
Yu Wenjian has been very depressed recently...
The Ministry of War's poaching of people is still going on, and all kinds of huge profits have tempted craftsmen in various yamen to make moves. Especially the promise made by the Ministry of War that "if you have special contributions, you can become an official" has made the military equipment supervisor, Shaofu Supervisor and other yamen. People's hearts are so disorganized that even if they want to suppress it, they can't suppress it.
Although he still remains a craftsman after changing jobs, the salary is very different. Either he stays in the original yamen and is squeezed and mistreated, or he switches to the Ministry of War and the salary is good and the future is bright. All fools know how to choose...
Because of Fang Jun's imposing manner, even Yu Wenjian wanted to bite Fang Jun to death, but he could only watch his "poaching" and did not dare to do anything violent. be prevented.
Not to mention this unruly poaching, after severely peeling off Yu Wenjian's skin on the banner with the words "Young Master and Dogs Not Allowed", His Majesty the Emperor just ordered him to It was peeled off, but there was not even the slightest punishment. Who couldn't tell which end the emperor was on?
For a time, everyone in the yamen in charge of craftsmen such as the Ordnance Supervisor, the Shaofu Supervisor, and the Ministry of Works were in danger and were in constant panic!
What if the emperor's move was because he was dissatisfied with the yamen's consistent oppression of craftsmen, and therefore adopted such a laissez-faire attitude towards Fang Jun as a warning?
Not only are the officials in the yamen in danger, but even the aristocratic family members who share the profits behind the scenes have all stopped and turned around...
Yu Wenjian originally wanted to persuade Song Guogong Xiao Yu to stand up and stop Fang Jun from poaching people...
Xiao Yu is the leader of the Qing Dynasty in the court, with a transcendent status. Most of the craftsmen in various yamen are from Jiangnan. As the leader of the Jiangnan noble clan, the Xiao family of Lanling has great influence. As long as Xiao Yu can stand up, any of the house will be destroyed. No matter how arrogant Jun is, he is helpless.
But who would have thought that Xiao Yu would reject the offer simply and neatly!
"My Xiao family has been elegant for generations and has noble blood. How can I have anything to do with those lowly craftsmen?"
These were Xiao Yu's exact words. Not only did he refuse to stand up, but he completely ignored the relationship... He was so angry that Yu Wenjian almost yelled: Your family is elegant and noble? Why didn't you say that when you asked my craftsmen to fill the kiln and bake porcelain for your house day and night?
It’s so shameless to be a cousin but also to erect an archway...
Please don't move Xiao Yu, but Yu Wenjian still can't swallow this breath, so he looks at Linghu Defen again.
If the Xiao family is rooted in the south of the Yangtze River and is therefore wary of Fang Jun, who controls Huating Town and tightly controls the interests of its merchants, then there is no reason for Linghu Defen to sit back and watch, right?
Speaking of which, almost all the profits gained from squeezing craftsmen in the court were dominated by the Guanlong Group. This had started since the time of Emperor Wen of the previous dynasty, even if the Jiangnan gentry later entered this field due to the connivance of Emperor Yang of the Sui Dynasty. , but still cannot shake the status of Guanlong Group.
Although Linghu Defen is now in decline, the Linghu family has a strong foundation and occupies a large share of this interest. In addition, due to the old grudge with Fang Jun, he will definitely not sit back and watch Fang Jun stir up trouble in the Ministry of War. The interests of everyone...
After making up his mind, Yu Wenjian went to lobby Linghu Defen and asked the old guy to come forward and call on the Guanlong Group to boycott Fang Jun.
As a result, Qiu Xingqian arrived before he left the house...
"If the young prisoner doesn't arrange a funeral at home, how can he still have time to visit me?"
Yu Wenjian stroked his gray beard, feeling extremely fed up.
Qiu Xinggan was his subordinate and served as a young eunuch in the Shaofujian. Although his qualifications were far inferior to Yu Wenjian, he relied on Qiu Xinggong and clung to the big tree of Gao Shilian. The status in the Shaofu Prison is not low.
However, Qiu Shenji was attacked and killed in Yangzhou. As an uncle, Qiu Xingqian also paid great filial piety. It was extremely taboo to go to other people's homes at this time, especially for an elderly person like Yu Wenjian...
Qiu Xingbai ignored Yu Wenjian's dissatisfaction and sighed sadly: "What a great opportunity. If my eldest brother is determined to seek revenge from Fang Jun, the crisis of our young eunuch will be resolved immediately!"
< br>
Yu Wenjian frowned and said: "Are you so sure that Qiu Shenji was killed by Fang Jun? As far as I know, the Ministry of Punishment has not had any clues so far. Fang Jun has a special status and is an official of the imperial court. You are so rash. But it shouldn’t be.”
"Should I care about him? I only know that if Fang Jun is allowed to continue doing this, not only our young supervisor, but also the weapons supervisor and the craftsmen from the Ministry of Industry will rebel! It doesn't matter whether those lowly craftsmen die or not. , but isn’t our annual income wasted? ”
Qiu Xingzhi looked annoyed. He really couldn't understand why his eldest brother Qiu Xinggong, who had always been impulsive and violent, became cautious this time when faced with the pain of losing a son.
"Haha..."
Yu Wenjian sneered: "Income? I'm afraid you are not only thinking about the income, but also the position of the head of the family, right?"
Qiu Xingzhi was taken aback and said hurriedly: "Uncle, I don't dare to say this nonsense. If my eldest brother hears it, he will have to skin me!"
Yu Wenjian looked sarcastic: "You have the courage to worry about it, but don't have the courage to admit it? That's all you have."
Encourage Qiu Xinggong to seek revenge against Fang Jun, only to kill Fang Jun in order to resolve the crisis of the young master?
Yu Wenjian is not so naive!
He has always had a close relationship with Qiu Xingqian, and he clearly knew how Qiu Xingqian coveted the position of the head of the Qiu family. It can be said that as much as he was afraid of the violent eldest brother, he hated him in his heart! However, Yu Wenjian can also understand that the second head of the Qiu family, whose status is second only to Qiu Xinggong, is being ordered around like a domestic servant all day long, and is beaten and scolded at every turn. Who can stand it?
If Qiu Xinggong could be encouraged to seek revenge from Fang Jun, it would be in line with Qiu Xinggong's intention.
If Fang Jun is killed, the critical situation of the Young Mansion Officer will be solved, and the interests of the Qiu family will not be harmed at all. Moreover, how can the emperor let Qiu Xinggong kill Fang Jun in vain? Sanctions are certain, but in view of Qiu Xinggong's past achievements, Your Majesty will definitely not bring harm to his family. He will only deal with Qiu Xinggong and not drag down the Qiu family.
As long as Qiu Xinggong falls, how can his few sons with nothing to lose be Qiu Xingqian's opponent?
The Qiu family is bound to fall into Qiu Xingzhan's hands.
This was a God-given opportunity, but Qiu Xinggong, who was always fiery and explosive, was able to keep his composure, causing Qiu Xingzhan's plan to completely fail...
Qiu Xingqian was inevitably embarrassed when Yu Wenjian exposed his thoughts. Although he was shameless, it was too shameless to scheme against his brother. He hurriedly changed the subject and said: "Uncle, you were so humiliated by Fang Jun, are you going to beat me too?" Are you trying to calm things down?”
Yu Wenjian immediately said angrily: "I wish I could peel off the skin of the mallet and gouge out the heart, and still settle the matter? If I don't bring down the mallet, I can't get rid of the hatred in my heart!"
The two murmured, feeling that Qiu Shenji's death was just the right time. After all, it seemed that Fang Jun was the biggest suspect. Maybe they could use this to persuade Linghu Defen to stand up and call on the clan members of the Guanlong Group. Let’s boycott Fang Jun together...
Even if the emperor favors Fang Jun and opposes the powerful family, he will not go to the Guanlong Group for a lowly servant like a craftsman, right?
Money is so exciting, but I don’t believe those Guanlong Group would let Fang Jun destroy everyone’s interests that have lasted for hundreds of years...(End of Chapter)
