The development of the matter was as expected. The great monk was targeted by the Jinyiwei people.
"It seems that there is no way to send that monk out of the city recently!" Xu He knew that Jinyiwei would definitely send extra manpower to strictly check the passers-by at the four gates of Hailing without even having to check.
A guy like the great monk with a special body shape and a head as smooth as a mirror probably wants to leave the city, unless he uses flying.
When he got home, Ding Ze came to the study and reported to him: "I just went to look around the garden. There was nothing happening. I also sent some food and drink, which was enough for the waiter and the two of them to stay there for ten days and a half." Got it!"
Xu He nodded and said: "From now on, let's not go there again!"
Xu He was originally curious about the identity of the great monk and the purpose of coming to Guangxiao Temple.
But now that he is related to Jin Yiwei, Xu He really doesn't want to get too involved.
Not long after Ding Ze left here, he turned back and whispered to Xu He: "Sir, the Qiu Hushu from the Yamen is here!"
Xu He frowned and said, "Did you say anything?"
"It was said that Prime Minister Hu County asked him to bring you a message!" Ding Ze said inexplicably, "He said that he missed the days when he and the young master worked together in Huai'an very much!"
Xu He smiled when he heard this. This old Hu had obviously noticed something from Jin Yiwei's actions today.
Yesterday, I asked him for help to buy some food and drinks for the guards on the city wall. Today, there happened to be a problem at Guangxiao Temple under that section of the city wall. Even a fool knew that it was Xu He's handiwork.
He specifically found someone to send a message, just to tell Xu He, don't worry, we have a strong relationship and this matter will never involve you.
Xu He thought of this and said to Ding Ze: "Ask Qiu Hushu to bring a message to Hu Xiancheng, saying that the current peace in Hailing is all due to Mr. Hu's work some time ago! From now on, we must also rely on you to take care of everything!"
Ding Ze got the letter and went out.
Xu He thought about what happened last night in the study room. It was absolutely impossible to say that there were no flaws.
The people of Jinyiwei saw that there were suddenly so many torches and lanterns missing from the city wall, and they knew there must be something wrong with it.
But Xu He couldn't help it. If he didn't do this, the waiter wouldn't be able to reach the nearby river, let alone Guangxiao Temple.
But Hu Xian Cheng sent someone to bring him a message, and he obviously had a way to cover up the matter, which made Xu He feel relieved a lot.
But this incident also reminded Xu He that if Jin Yiwei really wanted to investigate, his line would probably be exposed. If the real estate was found, the garden where the great monk was hidden had been reported to the Yamen.
Thinking of this, Xu He rubbed his eyebrows. The safest way was to send the great monk away.
"Hot potato!" Xu He said to himself.
…
The worry soon became a reality. Someone came from the county government again. This time it was not Qiu Hushu, but one of Chen Hua's subordinates. The man ran to Xu's house in a panic, not even breathing. After a while, he said to Xu He: "The eldest master told me that there are guards in Jinyi who are coming to inspect the young master's house!"
After hearing this, Xu He was horrified. After seeing off the door, he quickly called Ding Ze and asked him to go to the garden quickly and send the senior monk and the second boy away.
"Where to send it?" Ding Ze asked!
Xu He thought for a while and said: "Go to your second uncle and ask him to hide the person in the Xu Mansion in Fenghuang Dun. The people from Jinyiwei will never dare to search the Xu Mansion easily!"
Just when Ding Ze was about to leave, Xu He stopped him and said: "No, you can't go to Fenghuang Dun..."
Ding Ze turned back to look at Xu He, only to see him thinking with a sullen face for a moment and then suddenly smiled: "I know where to hide it!"
"Where?" Ding Ze asked curiously.
"Academy!"
It turns out that the academy where Su Yaoguang once stayed has become a haunted house because of the death. It is still vacant and no one around him dares to go near it. It is a perfect place to hide the great monk there.
Moreover, if he really hides people in the Xu Mansion, if he is exposed, the Jin Yiwei will definitely keep an eye on the Xu family and his own house in Phoenix Dun, and the situation will be passive by then!
When Ding Ze heard this, he didn't dare to delay at all and hurriedly went out to make arrangements.
Early the next morning, while Xu He was still eating, Ding Ze walked in with a livid face and said, "Sir, there are people from the Jin Yiwei outside asking to see you!"
Xu He felt a thump in his heart. After all, these people came to his door.
After he sorted out his thoughts and felt that all the loopholes in this matter had been closed, he straightened his clothes and prepared to go out to deal with it.
Mrs. Xie and Gu Hengbo also heard about this. Mrs. Xie, supported by Juan'er, went to the courtyard and said, "Xiaohe, what happened? My mother's right eye kept twitching early this morning! Why did the Jin Yiwei come to the door? Already?"
Sister Gu looked at Xu He with worry on her face.
Xu He smiled and said: "It's okay, I guess you want to check something with me. Don't worry, I'll be back as soon as I can."
But the moment he turned around, his face showed anxiety and uneasiness. After all, this was also his first contact with the Jinyiwei. This notorious secret service agency was really too stressful.
Sure enough, when Xu He came to the outer courtyard, he saw Wu Decao carefully accompanying a man wearing a flying fish suit. He was familiar with entertaining guests, but he was silent at the moment. The moment he saw Xu He, he finally let out a long sigh of relief. .
"My lord, Mr. Xu is here!" Wu Desao whispered.
Xu He came up behind the man and cupped his hands and said: "I don't know if you are visiting me, but I am not welcome from afar! Brother Ding, serve tea to the guest!"
The official in Feiyu uniform turned around slowly when he heard the sound and looked at Xu He with a smile.
Xu He was shocked the moment he saw him: "It's you!"
The man smiled and said, "Master Xu, do you still remember me?"
Xu He said in surprise: "Of course I remember you, didn't you disappear when you were in Huai'an Mansion? Why..."
It turned out that the man standing in front of Xu He, who was dressed as a member of Qianhu, was not the boatman with extraordinary conversation on the ship to Huai'an Mansion?
The man smiled at Xu He, cupped his hands and said, "Mr. Xu, let's get to know each other again. Dong Rui, a Qianhu in Fusi, Xiabei Town, is named Yangzhi!"
The Jinyi Guards of the Guo Dynasty were divided into North and South Town Fusi. Like the Ming Dynasty in later generations, they all had five guard posts.
The commander-in-chief is called Qianhu, Baihu, Zongqi, Xiaoqi. Generally speaking, sergeants are called captains, strongmen, and "Tiqi".
But the difference is that the Nanzhen Fusi in the Ming Dynasty was almost a decoration, only responsible for the chores of military appearance and discipline.
However, in the Wei Dynasty, after Yingzong moved the capital to Beijing, he set up town fusi in the northern and southern capitals. The two town fusi were in charge of major prison cases in the north and south, with equal power.
Therefore, when Dong Qianhu from Beizhen Fusi stood in front of Xu He and introduced himself, Xu He was even more puzzled.
"Master Dong, I wonder why you came to my house?" Xu He carefully probed.
Dong Rui smiled and said: "Don't be nervous, we are just talking about what happened in Huai'an!"
When Xu He heard this, he breathed a sigh of relief!
