Chapter 768: Chart 14
Even though he knew, he still had no choice but to say something he didn't say!
Of course, I was not interested in knowing exactly what he was from. To put it bluntly, my purpose was actually to arrive in Suzhou quickly.
So when he saw that he ignored him, Zhang Sixi naturally didn't ask much and lay on the bed to rest. Although he closed his eyes, he was thinking about a question in his mind. What was their dart escort?
What precious goods? Or something else?
What else?
Zhang Sixi was shocked. Who said that they must escort the goods? Can't they give them to others?
The business of this escort agency should be very extensive, so naturally it is impossible to just escort goods, or give them to others!
Thinking of this, Zhang Sixi couldn't help but turn his eyes to those who were together today. In addition to his words, there were only four left!
The scope further narrowed, and soon Zhang Sixi targeted a young man. This man was not seventeen or eighteen years old and was wearing a general escort agency disciple. He didn't seem to be anything special, but one thing is that this man is a little thin, to be precise, and a little thin. If he was a escort agency disciple, he would be a little inappropriate!
You should know that among this group of people, he seems a little ahead of his own. In other words, Ye Kai’s group of people is very capable just to escort this young man!
Who is this young man?
Zhang Sixi was a little confused. If Ye Kai and others were really trying to escort him, then another question was that if this person had an average identity, then Ye Kai and others could naturally take him to the official road. If there was a general martial arts dispute, the government would not care about it. Of course, if the matter was too big, they would also ask. As long as this person had no problem with his identity, the goal of the official road was large, but it was safer.
They did not walk the official road now, but chose to walk the path. Could it be that there is a problem with this person's identity, or is it the person being pursued by the court?
As a Qianhu of the Jinyiwei, Zhang Sixi naturally had a lot of information and immediately recalled what happened to the court recently, that is, the collapse of Xiangshan Temple!
Xiangshan Temple was first cultivated on Fengzhou Mountain!
During the Six Dynasties, Zhouzhou Mountain was an important barrier to the capital Jiankang, and also a royal garden, called "Leyouyuan". In the Leyouyuan, there were pavilions and pavilions, and the scenery was beautiful. According to historical records, during the Southern Dynasties, the great scientist Zu Chongzhi competed with the Northern Wei people Suo Yulin, and the location was in Leyouyuan. The water mill invented by Zu Chongzhi was also successfully trial-made in Leyouyuan. When the Sui Dynasty destroyed Chen, the Leyouyuan was burned. A small Jiuhua Temple was built on the southern foot of the mountain, so it was commonly known as "Little Jiuhua Mountain", which was abbreviated as Jiuhua Mountain. During the Southern Dynasties, Zhouzhou Mountain was once the place where the royal garden "Leyouyuan" was located, and it was a blessed place for emperors and generals to spend summer and cool off and enjoy entertainment. After the Liu Song Dynasty and Jin Dynasty, the Northern Suburbs at the foot of Zhouzhou Mountain was moved to the north of the palace city, and it was turned into Leyouyuan, and the west pond was also surrounded, and it was renamed Leyouyuan (
The scope should be north of Xiaoying). Emperor Wen of Song, Liu Yilong, used the land west of Zhoushan as the northern garden, and built the Louguan, and often gathered ministers to celebrate the banquet and write poems. It was prosperous. During the reign of Emperor Xiaowu of Song, he built Zhengyang and Lin Guang in Leyouyuan, and dug ice wells in Shanyin. Every winter, ice was collected and stored for the palace and summer use. These buildings were severely damaged in the later years of Emperor Wu of Liang, due to Hou Jing's rebellion, the soldiers were trapped in Taicheng and suffered severe damage. After Chen Baxian founded the country, he built again. In the summer of the seventh year of Emperor Xuan of Chen's great construction, he built a Ganlu Pavilion on Zhoushan because of the frequent decline of "nectar" and collected "nectar" to feast for the ministers. Famous literati of the Southern Dynasty such as Bao Zhao, Yan Yanzhi, Xie Lingyun, Fan Hua, Shen Yue, etc. were all in Zhoushan. Leyouyuan had activities and left behind many beautiful poems.
However, at this time, everything on the Cover Zhoushan Mountain had disappeared. You can still see some traces between some weeds and cypresses. When you climb the Cover Zhoushan Mountain, the sparkling Daming Lake was in front of you, but there was a towering city wall in the middle. The current Cover Zhoushan Mountain is not much different from a barren mountain, except that you can occasionally see some small paths stepped out by tourists.
The emperor is now in charge, so a Xiangshan Temple was built on Fuzhou Mountain. The one who supervised the current Shaoqing of the Ministry of Works Yan Shifan, and the person in charge was Hou Yu, the Minister of Works. You should know that there is still a court in Nanjing at this moment. The configuration of this court is actually the same as that of Beijing. The only difference is that it does not have any real power. Of course, now that the emperor wants to build Xiangshan Temple here, it is rare for them to gain performance, so they naturally attach great importance to it. The person who is staring at the scene was Hou Yu, the Minister of Works, and the general responsible was Liu Wei.
You should know that Xiangshan Temple has high hopes for the current emperor, but this has not been repaired yet. The Star Gazing Tower in Xiangshan Temple collapsed and several workers died.
Of course, in this era, the lives of ordinary people are worthless, and there will be no yamen to mobilize people to die, let alone on construction sites like Xiangshanguan, you can get some money by giving them some money.
So the biggest problem now is that the Star Gazing Tower collapsed.
Why did the Star Gazing Tower collapse? The Jinyiwei actually sent someone to investigate and the news was sent back soon: The construction of the Star Gazing Tower was originally on the edge of a pond, and the water in the pond was about 1 meter deep. When it was built, more than half of the foundation of the Star Gazing Tower was in the position of the pond, while the foundation of the Star Gazing Tower was only half a meter deep. However, they did not do that here. In order to save manpower and material resources, the workers directly built the waterproof wall outside with stones, and then directly backfilled with soil. The height between the layers was too large, and even if it was compacted, considering that it was entirely dependent on manpower, the depth of compaction was extremely limited, and then the Star Gazing Tower was directly built on it. The original pond was not backfilled, but expanded, intending to form a landscape with the moon near the water tower.
However, the water barrier wall could not block water. The water slowly soaked through the stone wall and then entered the soil. As the above-the-Star Gazing Tower became higher and higher, the replaced foundation was immersed in water and settled unevenly, which eventually led to the collapse of the Star Gazing Tower.
In addition to this, there is another big reason for the collapse of Xiangshan Temple, that is, Yan Shifan deducted a lot of money, and the ones below had no profits, so he naturally cut corners, which eventually led to the collapse of Xiangshan Temple!
In other words, Yan Shifan is a big blame, but now the Yan father and son are very powerful in the court. Even if someone knows, no one dares to write it on the memorial. However, this matter is very big and someone must take the blame. So Hou Yu, as a supervisor, naturally became the person who took the blame and was imprisoned!
Even if Xiangshan Temple collapsed, only Hou Yu was unlucky, and he would not have implicated his family. However, during the period when Hou Yu was in prison, another thing happened, that is, Yan Shifan was assassinated.
After Hou Yu was detained, in order to completely get rid of the relationship, Liu Wei naturally had to communicate with Yan Shifan, so he held a banquet on the Qinhuai River to invite Yan Shifan!
And naturally all of this was under the surveillance of the Jinyiwei, and their conversation was even left unchanged and finally returned to the Jinyiwei.
Although Zhang Sixi, who is a Jinyiwei Qianhu, is not in charge of this matter, he can also inquire about it, at least he knows about it.
On that day, Liu Wei poured wine for Yan Shifan on a pleasure boat and said, "This Hou Yu was fed with his personal pockets and cut corners during the construction of Xiangshan Temple. He also failed to supervise the officials and others, and was responsible for being careless in employed people."
Yan Shifan's lips sneered, and said, "What? Are you planning to blame all your guilt on a dying person? Don't forget that I was ordered to supervise the construction of Xiangshan Temple. This small chief was fed with his own pockets and cut corners. I didn't even notice it. Wouldn't I beg myself to be punished with ineffective supervision?"
His rebellious questioning stopped Liu Wei and others. He originally planned to let Hou Yu be a scapegoat, but now he found that if Hou Yu was a scapegoat, Yan Shifan would also be implicated. Although he and his father's power in the court could make him safe, it would inevitably take some effort. It would be even more amazing if those censors knew about it. At that time, the overwhelming impeachment memorials could drive people crazy. A few of the people who were driven to the Nanjing court had never suffered from the censors. Those nerds dared to scold the emperor, and he would be proud of it if he beheaded him.
Seeing that no one was present, Yan Shifan said, "I have to remind myself here that everyone is a grasshopper on a boat now. If something big happens, it is not something that can be resisted by just finding someone. Don't do anything stupid. While there is still time, think about how to write this memorial to the right place. Even if you want to find a scapegoat, don't be so stupid as to involve yourself."
It is better to say it is a warning than a reminder. Yan Shifan had no good feelings for Hou Yu, and even a little disgusted. He usually looked like a nerd, as old-fashioned as a stone in a pit, and had no contact with him, so he definitely did not say this for him. Of course, he was not worried that these people would involve themselves in writing memorials. If something was not good for him, it would be impossible to deliver it to the emperor.
However, during the meal, Yan Shifan did not mention the collapse of the Star Gazing Tower, as if it had not happened at all. As usual, he drank, talked and laughed, and looked at the girl singing with a bit of lustful eyes.
The girl who sang the song was deliberately arranged by Liu Wei. In addition to her beautiful appearance and great singing skills, she was also a virgin. She planned to give it to Yan Shifan tonight. Seeing Yan Shifan care about that girl so much, Liu Wei was a little worried when he was happy, and he couldn't figure out what he was thinking.
After three rounds of wine, Yan Shifan's face turned slightly red. He gently put the wine glass in his hand on the table, glanced at the adults present and said, "The Star Gazing Tower has collapsed, the emperor is furious. Are there any suitable ways for you to sit again?"
Yan Shifan's voice was very faint, but it sounded like thunder in the ears of others, and the hearts of the people present couldn't help but tighten.
Liu Wei and others cursed in their hearts, "Why did you fall back and you Yan Shifan still know? He said with a panic on his face: "The Ministry of Works has sent someone to investigate carefully. The reason why the Star Gazing Tower collapsed was the reason why Hou Yu, the Yuanwailang, was unfavorable and corrupt and abused the law!"
Of course, according to his own ideas, there is no way to hide this matter, or someone must be blamed. The best one is undoubtedly Hou Yu, who asked him to be responsible for the construction of Xiangshan Temple? It is very easy to do this, and you can be unscathed.
Liu Weina knew what Yan Shifan was thinking, and when he faced Yan Shifan's reminder, he felt a little cold and quickly agreed, looking trembling.
Yan Shifan nodded, laughed, picked up the wine glass, and said, "Sir, you don't have to worry too much. This is not a big deal. Come... Come... drink, isn't this a good thing? There is wine today and you are drunk today, let alone a beauty around you."
“Yes…yes…”
Liu Wei quickly agreed, turned his head and shouted at the woman, "Are you here to serve Lord Yan to drink?"
After being selected to sing the song, the woman forced herself to smile and walked over carefully, picked up the wine, and said timidly: "Sir, please."
Yan Shifan stretched out his hand, touched the woman's slender waist, gently stroked it, and asked, "Girl, how old is this year?"
The woman said: "Caomin is 16 this year."
Yan Shifan smiled and said, "Sixteen, the girl of Sixteen is a flower, Lord Liu, do you think so?"
Liu Wei nodded repeatedly and said, "Yes, yes."
Yan Shifan laughed, reached out to take the wine, raised his head and fed it to him.
Suddenly, a sudden change broke out, and the originally timid little girl's pitiful eyes became sharp. She touched her right hand on her head, and a golden hairpin was pulled into her hand. The next moment, the hairpin stabbed Yan Shifan's neck like lightning.
Yan Shifan was a little fat and had no way to avoid it. The hairpin in front of him seemed to pierce his neck. Yan Shifan was surrounded by a servant and hurriedly pulled it.
"Puchi."
The hairpin avoided Yan Shifan's vital points and pierced deeply into his shoulders. Even so, the sudden scream still made him scream.
The guards around the ship were still hesitating and rushed over.
Seeing that the woman failed to attack again, she grabbed the table with both hands and lifted it up, then retreated backwards.
"Crazy..."
The table brought plates, plates, and soup to Liu Wei and others present. Liu Wei and others did not react at all in the face of such a sudden change and were immediately splashed.
Taking advantage of the chaos, the woman had already left the pleasure boat, jumped into the water, and when the guards fell down outside the pleasure boat, there were still some ripples left on the water surface, where was there a little look of the woman?
In the end, Yan Shifan searched for the woman in a big way, and there was no such thing as finally.
Chapter completed!
