Chapter 103: Beipiao Lan Laodao
Tang Yi only lived in Suzhou for five days before leaving to return to Taicang. When he went there, he and Wang Shimao were the only ones. There were many people coming back, including Tang Shunzhi, Lu Tong, Lan Daoxing, Tian San, and a group of Suzhou merchants led by Zhou Qinjun. The big guys were lively, and there were a long string of carriages alone. Gao Jun's livestock and exquisitely decorated carriages were like a supercar parade in later generations. It was cool and eye-catching, attracting waves of stunning gazes.︾
Lan Daoxing and Tang Yi squeezed into the carriage. Along the way, the old Taoist's face kept changing, his butt seemed to have a sharp point, and he was restless. He sighed and sighed to the sky again, and kept reciting scriptures in his mouth, which made Tang Yi roll his eyes.
"Brother Lan, what are you afraid of?"
When Lan Daoxing saw Tang Yi's indifferent appearance, he immediately became angry. He rushed over, grabbed Tang Yi's arm, and asked, "Say, did you deliberately let the old Taoist Hotan San go to the weaving bureau to frame the old Taoist?"
"Injustice, a great injustice!" Tang Yi waved his hand quickly and said, "I really want to protect your safety."
"But the old Taoist is even more unsafe now!" Lan Daoxing said angrily.
It turned out that according to Tang Yi's arrangement, he took Tian San and disguised himself at the weaving bureau. He happened to meet Eunuch Gui who came back from Taicang. Eunuch Gui was also blind. He didn't know that the person he was looking for was right in front of him, and he had a long conversation with Lan Daoxing.
This talk was amazing. Lan Daoxing always got to know the truth and predicted things like a god. In fact, he knew the truth. He said a few words and tricked Eunuch Gui into a sacred manner. He treated him like a god. He invited him to the Weaving Bureau and introduced him to the weaving eunuch Yang Xuan.
Lan Daoxing originally wanted to avoid the limelight honestly, but he didn't know that the trouble was coming. The next day when Tian San got up early to get rid of his hands, he ran into a middle-aged man head-on, and he was stunned. He would never forget the gloomy eyes, especially the scars at the corners of his eyes were even more eye-catching!
It turned out that this person was the guy who forced Tian San and others to blow up the river embankment that day. Although he was all dissatisfied at that time and had a beard on his face, his eyes could not be changed. More than a dozen lives and countless people suffered, Tian Sanzhen wanted to rush up, tear the guy to pieces, and swallow it one by one. But in the end he still held it back, pretended to be nothing, and returned to his residence.
Turning around the sky, Wang Jun rushed to the weaving bureau with his people and wanted to capture Yang Xuan.
This Eunuch Yang was extremely calm. He had a big red python robe specially given by the emperor, with a jade belt on his waist and a straight face. His fair face looked full of ghosts in the dark room. Wang Jun asked him: "Do you know Shen Liang colluded with Japanese pirates?" Yang Xuan answered without knowing.
He asked him again: "Do you know if you are a friend of Zhu Zhiliang to blow up the river embankment?" Yang Xuan replied without knowing.
Asked again: "He intends to change the rice fields into mulberry fields, do you know?" Yang Xuan still answered without knowing it.
But Wang Jun was so angry that he scolded him angrily: "As a weaving eunuch, you don't even know what your weaving dogs are?"
Yang Xuan smiled calmly and said, "Our family has many weaving households, and there is no way to take care of everyone. Some of them have different quality and just clean up."
"What a good and bad guy, it's really clean! Without your permission, a mere weavering account leader would dare to join forces with the court to do something to destroy the conscience. Who else can give him the courage? Shen Liang is so crazy, and he is also overwhelmed by the weavering bureau, forcing him to take risks. In the final analysis, everything is the sin of your Eunuch Yang. Don't you admit your guilt?"
Faced with Wang Qian's loud and loud questioning, Yang Xuan suddenly burst into laughter indifferently, her voice was thin and sharp, like a fierce ghost, which made her eardrums hurt.
"Admiral Wang, it's true that you are an imperial envoy. Our family is also an imperial envoy. You are in charge of military affairs in the southeast, our family is in charge of the Jiangnan Weaving Bureau, and our master's money bag. With the false accusation of catching the wind and shadow, you want to capture our family. You are too disregarded to take the inner court and not take the master seriously!"
Wang Jun snorted coldly, "Eunuch Yang, don't you want evidence? Chen Liang will speak!"
"He doesn't!" Yang Xuan said decisively: "Apart from believing in gods and ghosts, he is simply a stone in a pit. It's smelly and hard. Our family can't do anything to him. By the way... do you know why he wants to escape and you still want to catch him?"
Wang Jun was stunned. He was still immersed in the joy of victory, but did not expect any profound meaning in it.
He heard Yang Xuan laugh and said, "He let everyone know that he is a Japanese pirate. If something happens, he should seek protection from the Japanese pirates, not the weaving bureau!"
I see!
With Chen Liang's virtue, he may indeed have done such a thing. Compared to Zhu Zhiliang, he is even more difficult to deal with ten thousand times.
Tang Yi pretended to be a guard and came with him. When he heard Yang Xuan's words, he immediately exclaimed: As expected, as long as he calls Chen Liang a Japanese pirate, the Weaver Bureau is the slave of the emperor. Without ironclad evidence, he will implicate the two together, which will be a shameful reputation and may even arouse the emperor's anger.
Once the emperor is involved, small things will turn into big things. In this way, it seems that it is really difficult to take down Yang Xuan. It seems that he knows that he is playing a scoundrel, but he has no choice. Who makes the emperor the biggest scoundrel in the world!
Not only can they not be taken down, they can't even be searched at will, otherwise Yang Xuan would run to the emperor and cry and make a fuss, saying that he would look at the owner when beating a dog. The outer court bullies the inner court, and the simple case would deteriorate. He would still underestimate the abomination of the imperial power era, but if he kills people without death, he would miss the opportunity given by heaven!
Tang Yi's mind was running quickly, his eyes were circling around, and he happened to see someone near the fish tank blinking desperately next to the hall.
"It's Tian San!"
Tang Yi was so happy that he hurried over. After whispering a few words, Tang Yi was immediately ecstatic and hurriedly called the commander soldiers and rushed back. Tian San led the way in front. Not long after, he caught the middle-aged man who participated in the destruction of the dike. The middle-aged man was the nephew of Eunuch Gui, and Eunuch Gui was the godson of Eunuch Yang.
But that Eunuch Gui was a guy who was brave and pampered and was relieved after whipping twenty whips. This time, it was OK, and Yang Xuan could never run away again.
Lan Daoxing was originally in a quiet room, but he was meditating. When he heard that there was a mess outside, he hurried out and happened to run away and collided with Tang Yi.
"Hahaha, thank you, Brother Lan, for going deep into the tiger's den and helping to catch the culprit. On behalf of the people of Jiading and Taicang, I would like to thank you, Brother Lan!"
"Ah! Ah?" Lan Daoxing's eyes almost fell off, and it had something to do with the old Taoist!
"Tang Yi, don't harm me!"
Suddenly, Eunuch Gui looked ferocious and shouted at the top of his throat: "Okay, my surname is Lan. If you dare to lie to our family, you will have to die a good death!"
"Bah, you are the damn person." Lan Daoxing rushed up, punched and kicked, and threw the fire on him.
Wang Jun immediately temporarily sealed the Weaver Bureau, and Yang Xuan and others were under house arrest. Because the case was too big, he immediately rushed to the scene with 600 miles, secretly reported Jiajing and Jing to wait for the emperor's imperial edict.
The next thing is to see how the above deal with it. If there is nothing Tang Yi’s business, the salt iron pond is still under construction. Tang Yi quickly said goodbye to Taicang.
Along the way, Lan Daoxing was very careful and he was thumping around. The more he thought about it, the more he became more and more afraid, and kept complaining to Tang Yi.
"The old Taoist is a man from the outside world, free and easy. This time, he stepped into such a big case, even if he didn't die, he would have to lose five hundred years of Taoism. Have you seen that when Eunuch Gui was arrested, his eyes looked like a poisonous snake. You guys have caused me to suffer!"
Tang Yi is speechless, I am better off getting involved than you, even if I am in trouble, I will be ahead of you.
"That's different. You kid has a reputation, a master's sect, and a lot of money. They dare not do anything to you. The old Taoist will be different. Maybe at the middle of the night, you will take away the old Taoist's head."
Tang Yi said heartlessly: "You can do it, can you calculate it? What's there to be afraid of?"
Lan Daoxing looked at the sky with his eyes squinted and said stinkingly: "I can count all the people in the world, but I can't count myself!"
Bah, it's really narcissistic. You have the nerve to say about your lies.
However, Lan Daoxing is indeed not suitable to stay in Taicang. As the saying goes, if you don’t know what you want, unless you don’t do it. He fooled Shen Liang and helped take Yang Xuan down. Sooner or later, someone will notice him. It would not be a good thing if he digs out his relationship with Lan Daoxing and then puts the hat of making friends with demons.
What's more, Tang Yi knew that the place where Lan Daoxing shined in the future was the capital. If he wanted to eradicate the Yan Party, this Lan immortal would be indispensable. It would be better to let him manage it first.
"How about this, Brother Lan, I will arrange for you to go to Beijing. What do you think?"
