Yang Huazhong said: There was a bit of an eyebrow at first, but the eyebrows soon disappeared.

How do you say this? The old man asked.

Yang Huazhong said: This is a long story.

Old Yangtou said: Then let's talk while walking.

On the way, Yang Huazhong told Lao Yangtou about the search in Leigang Town these days:

When we arrived at Leigang Town, all the inns there were closed, so we knocked on the door of a tea farmer's house and stayed at his house.

That family was nice and treated us hospitably. I heard that we were from Mianniu Mountain and they were very friendly in the past. After we talked about it, it turned out that that family had relatives here, but not in our village.

We explained our purpose to that family and asked them to help us find out. Unexpectedly, they told us a piece of gossip, saying that the Wanjia of Leigang Town recruited a boy from outside a few days ago, who was about the same age as Dabai.

big.

The Wan family's recruitment of servants was not disclosed to the outside world. The family where we stayed happened to have a relative who worked as an errand in the Wan family, so they accidentally mentioned it.

So, through him, we found the relative who worked as an errand in Wan's family, and asked the relative in detail about the new boy's age, body, facial features, including what he was wearing.

The clothes are all the same as those of Dabai. Yang Huazhong said.

Now that you have found out everything, why don't you go to Wanjia to bring Dabai back? Old Yang asked in surprise.

Yang Huazhong frowned: Here's the problem. The relative told us that the boy stayed in Wan's kitchen for half a day, broke several dishes and ate a roast chicken secretly while doing errands for half a day.

, but was taken away by the housekeeper of the Wan family, and was never seen again.

Where did that go? Old Yangtou looked nervous.

Yang Huazhong continued, Lao Wu and I thought about it and decided to ask relatives to go to Wanjia. Before leaving, we inquired about the situation of Wanjia with the family where we were staying. It turned out that Wanjia really should not be underestimated.

It is actually one of the richest families in Leigang Town.

Old Yang's eyes widened: Those who can afford a housekeeper and servants must be from a wealthy family. It would be great if a small family can have enough food and clothing!

Yang Huazhou couldn't help but interjected: Dad, this Wanjia family is not an ordinary big family. Seventy percent of the entire tea mountain in Leigang Town is the property of Wanjia. Every year before and after Grain Rain, tea merchants from all over the world flock to Leigang Town.

, all of them went to do business with Wanjia.

Among the types of tea produced by Wanjia, there is a type of tea called 'Qingyuanchun'. It is even sent to the capital as tribute and is specially made for the royal family to drink. Wanjia is a famous and famous family and a big merchant in Jiangning County.

, and it is also intricately connected with the local government. My third brother and I want to go to Wanjia to find someone, but it is not as simple as what we say!

Hearing Yang Huazhou's words, Old Yang was dumbfounded.

But then he saw Da'an and gained confidence.

The third child is the biological father of the number one scholar in the dynasty, and the father-in-law of the general who protects the country. Is it possible that he can't get into the Wan family because of his status? After all, he is just a tea seller! The old man said.

Yang Huazhong smiled bitterly.

Yang Huazhou spread his hands: Dad, there is a saying that the county magistrate is not as good as the current governor. Although Da'an is the number one scholar, it is a title but not an official title and real power. Tang Yazi is a general who protects the country, but he is far away in Tianhai County. He

The strength is also in the army. The Wan family is doing business honestly. It is not easy for Tang Yazi to lead his troops and rush in to search the house. That would violate the laws of Daqi.

If the two of them were also in Leigang Town at that time, they would definitely be able to enter the Wan family, but they were not there, and the third brother did not have any documents on him that could prove that he was their father and father-in-law.

Ah, if people don’t open their doors and don’t let people in, we can’t do anything!

Yang Huazhou's words left Old Yang Tou speechless.

So what should we do now? You can't know that the child finally appeared in Wan's house and not look for it, right? The old man asked unwillingly.

Yang Huazhong said: That's why we came back to report this matter to you. If it really doesn't work, we have no choice but to report it to the officials and let them intervene in this matter.

Report to the official? The commotion was too big, not to mention that the government was closed during the Chinese New Year, and the yamen would not open to accept cases until the fifteenth day of the first lunar month! Old Yang Tou said.

The eyes for help fell on Daan and Xiaoan.

Da'an has been standing aside silently, but actually he is thinking in his eyes.

Feeling Dao Lao Yangtou's pleading eyes, Da'an stepped forward and said: When I was studying in Qing'an County, I had a classmate with whom I had a good relationship. His father was the county magistrate of Jiangning County.

Since Wanjia is a big family in Jiangning County, he has some friendship with the county magistrate, right? It happened that on the sixth day of the first lunar month, several of our classmates made an appointment to have a small gathering in Jiangning County. I asked my classmate to help me with this.

A trip to thousands of homes.

What Lao Yang wanted most was this sentence!

Hearing this, he excitedly held Daan's hand: "Okay, okay, I'm just waiting for your words. Then you have to keep this in mind!"

Daan nodded: Dabai is my cousin, I will naturally not forget it!

Old Yangtou said: Okay, I will tell Wang Hongquan about this when I meet him later. On the sixth day of the first lunar month, you go to Jiangning County and take him with you!

After writing the letter, Yang Ruoqing breathed a sigh of relief.

Faced with this situation, she urgently needed help.

Currently, she can no longer find Qi Xingyun.

Because Qi Xingyun did not have many resources at hand, attacking the Marquis of Liyang Mansion was not effective just by relying on large numbers of people.

Once those poisonous insects are allowed to break out, the harm will be unimaginable.

During this period of time, I could only watch helplessly as the Liyang Marquis Mansion continued to transfer useful evidence.

Not being able to become fat after one meal, Yang Ruoqing set her sights on finding out where the evidence had been transferred.

She discovered that all the loaded large boxes were transported through carriages, through hidden passages, and then through waterways, all the way to the south.

It should be in the direction of Nanman. Yang Ruoqing thought to herself.

Nanman is not where the Black Lotus is located, but in the southwest.

There are many mountains there, the climate is humid and warm, and all kinds of animals and plants grow extremely vigorously.

The people living on that land are collectively called Nanman.

However, the Southern Barbarians are not essentially a whole, but are composed of many tribes, and some tribes often have blood feuds with each other.

Because of this, Daqi has always regarded the land there as useless.

Generally, the leader of a tribe is canonized as the king of the tribe, and others are generally not involved or managed.

In fact, it can't be controlled at all.

Is there a relationship between Nanman and Liyang Marquis and the Southern Barbarian King? Yang Ruoqing became wary.

Apart from anything else, at least this matter must be discussed with Qi Xingyun.
