085 The Man Behind the Scenes 【Explosive Update】
After resting for a long time, and before he felt completely better, Ning Ke returned to Shanghai for a new round of blood changes.
Rong Chu had already recruited soldiers and returned to Jiangnan. The letter he left for Ning Ke gave a thorough analysis of the situation in Shanghai. Although Rong Chu had laid a good foundation during his serious illness, Rong Jin was cunning. If Rong Chu was to stay in Jiangnan forever
To have no worries, she must guard Shanghai and not let Shanghai become Rong Jin's retreat.
After Ning Ke spent a night studying Rong Chu's letter and his actions in Shanghai a few days ago, he came to the conclusion that Sun Yiyun and Du Changqing were both chess pieces that Rong Jin was tired of using and couldn't throw away, so he had to resort to this
He used a trick to sow discord, using the names of both parties to do evil things to the people. If he could survive this turmoil, Rong Jin might consider using it. If he couldn't survive, it would be justifiable.
"Dead of anger" or "die of depression", in short, there is no trace of anything related to him Rong Jin.
Thinking this way, many things that were unexplainable at first were explained clearly.
For example, Du's people set off explosives at the dock, another example was the destruction of Du's ancestral hall to get married, and even more, after Du Changqing showed murderous intentions towards him for the first time, he got that serious illness that he almost didn't survive.
All the timings were perfect. If Rong Chu hadn't paid attention and deliberately sold the flaw to Rong Jin, Rong Jin might still be kept in the dark by now.
Rong Jin, the city is really deep.
…
Du Changqing was newly appointed to Shanghai Haidao. The so-called three things that made him the new official. Du Changqing's vigorous and vigorous behavior was even worse than that of his ancestors. In addition, thanks to Rong Chu's kindness, he also risked his life to track down the so-called pirates.
thing.
As for the Xucao Secretary, Liu Junyi, a down-and-out scholar recommended by Du Changqing, was appointed. Liu Junyi had participated in the Spring Palace two years ago, but he left the capital angrily because of the unfairness of the Spring Palace examiners, and ended up living here. If Du Changqing had not taken care of him, he would have died
Cheng Shanghai was an unjust ghost. Rong Chu hired Liu Junyi as an experiment, but Liu Junyi's financial proficiency impressed not only Ning Ke, but also Du Changqing, who had been taking care of him.
Shanghai was divided into three districts: east of the city, western suburbs, and Nanlin. The three-year rotation of taxes greatly reduced the burden on the people of Shanghai. Then the land in Shanghai was re-measured and taxes were levied according to the quality and output of the land.
After finishing these two things, he took a large number of people to the mansion where Ning Ke was temporarily staying, saying that he wanted to thank Ning Ke for opening a warehouse to release grain, stabilizing grain prices, and stabilizing the people.
Ning Ke went back and forth with him and had a pleasant conversation.
As the evening wore on, Liu Junyi proposed to go out for a walk with Ning Ke. He felt that Liu Junyi had something to tell him. After thinking about it, Ning Ke changed his clothes and walked out with Liu Junyi until they walked to Nanlin.
"Your Excellency, do you have something to tell me?"
The deep moonlight was hidden in the green woods, which inexplicably added a mysterious atmosphere. Ning Ke looked around as he spoke. There were hills in the east, turbulent water in the west, and airtight in the north and south.
The woods are really a good place to destroy corpses and eliminate traces.
A feeling of uneasiness gradually emerged in my heart, but I thought that Zi Lian must be following closely, so I relaxed my mind and said with a smile, "There is no one here, but you just said it's okay."
Liu Junyi suddenly turned around and knelt down towards Ning Ke, "Sir, do you want to know why you got that serious illness?"
Because he was too quiet, Liu Junyi's suddenly aggravated words made the dense forest become even more cramped. However, the meaning of his words made Ning Ke doubtful. She had known that her illness must be caused by human intervention, but it was difficult to
After finding out the mastermind behind the scenes, he gave up. Liu Junyi must have a clue when he said so conclusively, but why did he make an appointment with her alone in the dense forest on this dark and windy night?
While I was thinking wildly, I suddenly heard Liu Junyi say, "Tonight, someone is surrounding your residence, just to force you to hand over the Shanghai Soldier Talisman."
"Who is it?" Ning Ke was startled and felt a fine layer of sweat on her back. Not many people knew that she was carrying the Shanghai Soldier Talisman, except for Rong Chu...
