Chapter 918 The person behind it? (Thanks to Dudu for the tip~)
Different from the southern region where Li Dalang lives, where it rains and rains every day, Chang'an has sunny days with bright sunshine these days.
As soon as Mr. Bu left the palace gate, someone came up to tell him that Li Sanniang's carriage was being followed.
Of course, Mr. Bu originally listed the affairs of aliens as a major issue among bad people, especially those related to Li Sanniang, and even sent several groups of people to protect and monitor them. Naturally, it's Lao Shi and Qiuxiang, who secretly also have numbers.
Mr. Bu stood outside the majestic red palace wall, looking at the narrow piece of paper with several crosses written on it in his hand, his thoughts racing in his heart.
"Go back to the alliance meeting and ask someone to bring those two people over. I will interrogate them myself."
"Yes."
The subordinate bowed his head and bowed in response to Mr. Bu's words, then turned around and took it. The horse brought over by the palace attendant grabbed the reins and watched Mr. Bu get on the horse, then stepped aside.
As for the hunchbacked old servant who had been following Mr. But, he didn’t say anything. He just silently got on another horse and followed Mr. But.
Yes, since Mr. Bu can stand up on his legs, he no longer wants to sit. Even if he goes out, he would rather ride a horse than a carriage.
In fact, according to Li Sanniang, Mr. Bu should do it step by step, starting from standing, to standing for a long time, to walking slowly, and then running and jumping.
This reconstruction process will take at least a few years. However, Mr. Bu has a strong willpower and has to rely on his own strong willpower to shorten this time. After more than half a year, I was able to ride a horse through flowers.
The two merchants who had been knocked unconscious by the bad guys who secretly protected Li Sanniang were now shrinking their necks, their hands were tied, and they were being transferred to the carriage with black cloth covers on their heads. , and went to the government office of the bad guys in Chang'an City.
After Mr. Bu Ke finished handling the affairs at hand and had lunch, the two merchants were sent to the dungeon of the Delinquent Office.
Inside the dungeon, not everything is underground. It is considered semi-underground, and there is still some light coming in during the day.
However, if you want to see more carefully, you still need to light a lamp.
At this moment, the hunchbacked servant was walking in front of Mr. Bu with a lamp, and the two of them turned a few corners before entering the dungeon where the two merchants were imprisoned.
Under the flickering candlelight, Mr. Bu lifted up the hem of his robe and sat comfortably on the chair that had been prepared for him.
There was actually a cup of tea that had been brewed long ago. The lame one-eyed jailer, smelling of blood, stepped forward and saluted Mr. Bu. He bowed his head and went on stage with both hands to give to Bu The gentleman handed over a piece of paper.
"Sir, I have used some tricks to prove that he is indeed a serious businessman, and he is a pharmacist who buys and sells medicinal materials.
These two people followed the advice of the wealthy local Wang family in the south, and then they set their sights on Lady Li Sanniang in Chang'an City.
Whether there is anyone behind the Wang family still needs to be checked by the alliance's spies in the south. ”
Mr. Bu made a sound, took the piece of paper with some blood stains and read it.
It turned out that these two people were bastard brothers of a certain family in the south, and they were dividing their families. When I didn't get much money, I started to think about coming to Chang'an. Wasn't there a rumor that the Imperial Medical Office was going to cooperate with big drug dealers to provide tonics for the rich and patent medicines for the common people?
The two brothers thought that they could get rich by eating meat and soup, so they decided to come to Chang'an
Coincidentally, as soon as the two of them started to think about it, the Wang family came to them and gave them a lot of gold and silver to support their journey north to Chang'an. They only had one request. They hoped that they would go to Li Sanniang. It would be best to kidnap her or give her a child. Just look for some trouble. These two people naturally knew that there must be something going on here, but in the end they had no conscience in front of Jin Yin.
When the two of them actually arrived in Chang'an, they naturally found out that Li Sanniang was a female official in the Imperial Medical Office, and she was not someone to be trifled with.
Logically speaking, if the two of them want to trade medicinal materials, they should support Li Sanniang more.
However, how can these two people refuse the power and money of the Wang family?
Therefore, the two of them only dared to hire a carriage to follow Li Sanniang after she left the city.
Perhaps they really had some idea in mind, but before they could implement it, they were caught by the bad guys sent to protect Li Sanniang.
After reading this piece of paper, Mr. Bu reached out his slender finger and tapped the words "Wang Family in the South" on the paper.
Because he controls all the bad guys in the entire Tang Dynasty, Mr. Bu naturally receives news from bad guys from all walks of life in the Tang Dynasty every day.
Based on Mr. Bu’s strong memory, it turns out that Princess Nanping’s maternal family happens to be named Wang. By coincidence, the Wang family is in the south.
What's more, Princess Nanping lost her only son because of Li Sanniang's testimony about the smallpox poisoning case.
If you think about it more, is the Liu family of these two brothers also related to the Duke of Chongqing (husband of Princess Nanping)?
Then, this should be more than just thinking about revenge on Li Sanniang.
Besides Duke Yu and Princess Nanping, there might be someone else here, and this person must have come after Li Sanniang raised the topic of "rich people's tonics, plain people's tonics".
Profit is always the key to all problems.
After thinking about this for a few breaths, Mr. Bu nodded and told the lame one-eyed jailer: "Break your legs and throw them out in a lively place. Send someone to take a closer look to see who will pick them up." "
After giving this order, Mr. Bu left the dungeon with the paper and the hunchbacked servant. He returned to the study, thought for a while, and then wrote on the paper. few.
"Send this to the people in the Jiangnan East Alliance. I want to see who is behind this."
"Yes, sir."
That night, the two merchants surnamed Liu were thrown in front of the Pharmacy Merchants Association in Jiangnan East Road.
The bad guy didn't kill her, but according to Mr. Bu's words, both of them broke their legs and were bleeding, and they were thrown in front of the door.
Liu Changwen, the president of the Jiangnan East Drug Merchants Association, frowned as he listened to the report from the people below: "Liu Kang (the fat merchant) is still unconscious, and the words came from Liu Jian (Liu Jian) According to what the thin merchant) said, Liu Jian said he was knocked unconscious by two ordinary-looking people and woke up in a dark dungeon. >They were also tortured there. They couldn’t stand the torture and they all revealed it.”
At this point, the man looked up at Liu Changwen and said, “Master Lin, it must be a bad person! br>
The only people who dare to act like this in Chang'an City are bad people.
It seems that the rumor that Li Sanniang is a bad person is not groundless. ”
