The Gu family has been in Xianyang City for so many years and has its own connections.
After coming out of Xianyang Prison, Gu Zongmin immediately sent people to investigate matters about the Mo family.
He did not hide this matter from Zhang Han. After all, there were some things that the imperial court could do better than he, a merchant, could do.
With Zhang Han's participation, the matter was investigated very quickly.
But what puzzled him was that it was only this time that many people came to the Mo family to repair the book, and they all concentrated on the book repair place and concentrated on repairing the book. He had never heard of anyone colluding with the people from the Salt Gang.
People who have been paying attention to the movements in the DPRK have also noticed this phenomenon, and they have speculated what His Majesty is going to do?
Coupled with the fact that Zhao Gao was still pursuing the corruption case openly, people in Xianyang City were panicked for a while.
At this moment, in a wine shop in Xianyang City.
A middle-aged man was settling accounts, his eyes looking outside from time to time.
When he saw a guest coming, he immediately put on a cheerful expression and said, "Sir, please come inside."
"Have a glass of wine!"
"okay!"
After the wine was served, the middle-aged man sat down and started drinking.
This drink lasted for an entire hour!
It wasn't until the sky gradually darkened that a dusty old man came in from outside. He took one look at the shop owner and walked towards the back of the yard.
At this time, there were not many people around. The middle-aged man took a look and saw that there was no one in the store, then got up and walked towards the yard.
When they arrived at the yard and walked into a room, the old man just now saluted the middle-aged man.
"See Young Master."
The middle-aged man immediately helped the old man up and said in a helpless tone: "Uncle Zhang, I have told you several times that I am no longer the son of the Zhang family. I am just the shopkeeper of this wine shop. You don't need to pay such a courtesy to me."
Uncle Zhang shook his head in disapproval, standing there looking at the middle-aged man with respectful expressions.
"Sir, the etiquette cannot be abolished."
"No matter when, you are the prince in my heart."
"If Dahan had not been destroyed, you would have been the future prime minister. How could you, the most noble young master in the hearts of slaves, be relegated to such a small place!"
"But now, you still have to look at the faces of those people and serve these people of Great Qin. When have you ever experienced such injustice?"
The middle-aged man smiled, with a sad look in his eyes.
Looking at Uncle Zhang in front of him, he seemed to see his former glory.
He was a Korean who came from an aristocratic family. His grandfather was the prime minister of the three dynasties of Korea, Zhang Ping, and his father, Zhang Ping, also succeeded him as the prime minister of the second dynasty of Korea.
He is Zhang Liang, who, together with Xiao He and Han Xin, is known as the Three Heroes of the Early Han Dynasty.
It's a pity that now he has no ambition, but no power to resist Qin.
If Han hadn't been destroyed, he would still be a high-ranking prime minister now. It's a pity... everything is fate, and no one can control it at all.
"Uncle Zhang, all this has passed. Now I only have the great cause in my heart, and the rest are just illusions."
As he spoke, he sighed deeply, "How is the investigation going?"
Uncle Zhang saw Zhang Liang's helplessness and knew that his greatest wish was to destroy Qin and avenge Korea.
No one knows how much pain Zhang Liang suffered, but he knows that he accompanied Zhang Liang to sell off all his family property and sent people to assassinate Ying Zheng in Bolangsha, but unfortunately failed.
Since then, he followed Zhang Liang to Xianyang City, started business incognito, and secretly looked for opportunities to assassinate Ying Zheng again.
But he has been in Xianyang City for several years, but there is no chance. Now Ying Zheng rarely comes out of the palace.
He looked at Zhang Liang with some distress, glanced outside the window to make sure there was no one in the yard, and then quietly walked to Zhang Liang and said in a low voice: "Young Master, we have investigated clearly, we are not looking for assassins."
Uncle Zhang is the one who goes to inquire about the news every time. After all, he is old and nothing he does will arouse others' suspicion.
Seeing that Zhang Liang breathed a sigh of relief, he continued: "I heard that the Gu family is tracing the whereabouts of the Mo family and is looking for someone who is good at making hidden weapons."
"It seems that there is a capable person in Xianyang Prison who needs such a person, so the Gu family secretly searches for him."
"Xianyang Prison? Ran Fang?" Zhang Liang murmured. He had been in Xianyang City for a year, and he had used money to open up contacts with some officials.
He had heard that there was a capable person named Ran Fang in Xianyang Prison, who was very favored by His Majesty.
If he can be recommended by this person, maybe he will have a chance to meet His Majesty, and then he will have a chance to assassinate him again.
"This person can be used."
"Go and investigate to find out what's so special about Ran Fang and what he likes. I'm going to visit him."
Uncle Zhang nodded. It is not difficult to investigate this matter. After all, many people are now asking about Ran Fang.
"Then Ran Fang is from Ying Zheng, will he be willing to see you?"
"Besides, if we go to see him suddenly, I'm afraid it will arouse Ying Zheng's suspicion, right?"
Hearing what Uncle Zhang said, Zhang Liang lowered his head and thought for a moment.
After a while, he raised his head and looked at Uncle Zhang and said, "Do you remember that last time I saw a young man outside Xianyang City who was good at making exquisite utensils?"
Being reminded like this, Uncle Zhang immediately remembered it and his eyes widened instantly.
"That was the day Hu Hai left the city. We originally wanted to see if Ying Zheng would come to see him off, but we didn't see anything. On the way back, we saw a young man playing with a wooden bird?"
"The bird is indeed made very finely. If it weren't for the wood all over it, no one would know it's a fake bird!"
In every word, Uncle Zhang was full of praise for that young man.
After saying that, he looked embarrassed again, "But... that young man seems to be unwilling to enter Xianyang City. He only wants to make some novel utensils in the mountains and fields."
"At that time, the young master also proposed that he would be friends with him and buy him a house in Xianyang City, as long as he was willing to help the former young master do something, but he refused so simply!"
"If I ask him to do things for that party now, I'm afraid he won't agree."
Zhang Liang smiled easily and was not affected by Uncle Zhang's words at all.
He stood there and said in a nonchalant tone: "So what?"
"I'm just making suggestions. As for whether that person is willing to accept Ran Fang's suggestion, it's not something you or I can decide upon meeting him."
"I will go to see Gu Zongmin first and make a request to him first. If he is willing to introduce Ran Fang to me, then I will naturally tell him where that person lives."
"If he doesn't want to, then of course I won't say anything."
Uncle Zhang disagreed a little. Zhang Liang was originally the person the court wanted to trace, but now he went directly to Xianyang Prison. Isn't this a sheep entering the tiger's mouth?
However, now that Zhang Liang had made up his mind, it was hard for him to say anything else.
"Since you have decided, Master, let's do it!"
"If there is danger, I will try my best to rescue the young master!"
Listening to the meaning behind his words, Zhang Liang understood the meaning.
He lowered his head and stood there not knowing what to say, "Uncle Zhang, I have my own discretion in this matter."
"Whether it succeeds or not, I will definitely give it a try. Even if it is for the sake of the Zhang family, I am bound to do it!"
"If something happens then, you should take the people and leave Xianyang City immediately without delay for a day."
"There's no need to collect the body for me..."
