"Yeah, it would be bad if it goes bad..." Li Yan continued, suddenly realizing that Zhou Dongtian didn't mean what he said, and quickly defended, "So I just played until Lingao came to be a prisoner. --"
Zhou Dongtian laughed twice and patted his shoulder. He picked up the file and handed it to Li Yan: "She has returned to the Intelligence Bureau. I think she will cooperate with your work in the future."
"Okay. I" Li Yan nodded, thinking that the Intelligence Bureau originally wanted to conduct a special investigation on the Ming Dynasty's internal guards and intelligence system. It had entrusted people from the Great Library to query a lot of information from historical records and notes, and at the same time, through interrogation of prisoners I also obtained a lot of information from interviews with the Ming Dynasty gentry. The staff members who were captured during the Chengmai Battle provided considerable information: some were heard, and some were personal experiences. But these information all come from outside - now that there is such a family member and temporary worker, he should know the internal situation and operation of Jinyiwei better than others.
The Bureau of Foreign Intelligence immediately issued a notice to all field departments, classifying Huang Shunlong as "dangerous". His shops and residences were both locations of serious threats - Lin Ming was the sister-in-law lost in Macau, and he would definitely focus on the Huang family. object of care. Maybe there is a team of Jinyi guards ambushing outside Huang's house now.
"Although cutting off the connection between the Huang family and us is a heavy loss, we must be careful of the other party jumping over the wall now. Regardless of public or private matters, the hundred households named Lin will definitely try to directly kidnap the elders to find out our details, or try to exchange with us Prisoners." Jiang Shan said.
Li Yongxun once again met the trio led by the woman, still waiting for her with expressionless faces.
She was hooded again and put into the carriage. After a period of turbulence, the hood was taken off - Li Yongxun blinked. This is a quiet courtyard with high walls. The walls are covered with climbing plants, and they are covered with flowers of all sizes. pink flowers. It seems quite strange.
There are several multi-story buildings similar to those of the Francons standing in the yard. But it's not as beautiful as the Franconian's house. The windows are all inlaid with glass, but also equipped with sturdy wooden bars. Nothing can be seen from the outside.
A new fear invaded her heart: Where is this place? Could it be the prison of the thief? The appearance is different from Daming's, but the chilly and cold atmosphere emanating from it is something she has been familiar with since she was a child.
This is the "***" of the General Administration of Political Security. In fact, nothing is learned here. It is the exclusive place where personnel of the Political Security Bureau are detained. in a system that traverses political power
"Go in" Ke Yun urged her. Li Yongxun had no choice but to climb up the steps. The iron-clad double doors opened and a lame man came out - a wooden leg was exposed under one of his trousers. This person was also wearing a small double-breasted coat and the same blue shoulder strips as the female concubine and the others.
"There is one person to be processed, name is Li Yongxun, gender is female." Ke Yun handed the document in his hand to the other party, and the two of them were busy writing and stamping on the table at the door for a long time. The lame man took out a bunch of keys.
"Where is the arrangement?"
"The first area."
The lame man opened an iron door in the foyer. Behind it was a long corridor, with doors one after another on the left and right, all closed. He led them around three or four turns, passed through a courtyard, opened several iron gates, and finally came to a door.
"right here."
Li Yongxun felt that he had arrived in a neat and tidy room with only one bed. A table and two chairs. The walls are painted white, the floor is wooden, the windows are high and luxuriously inlaid with glass, and the room is sunny. On the table are the Four Treasures of the Study and a notebook made of white paper.
"This is your room," the lame guard said. "The toilet and bathhouse are at the end of the corridor. You can walk around in the corridor as you like. You just can't go out of the iron door." He pointed to the iron door at the other end of the corridor. "There's something wrong. Pull the rope and someone will come." After saying these words, he limped out. Only Ke Yun and her were left.
"You live here. Take a rest and someone will talk to you in a few days."
"What are you talking about?" Li Yongxun didn't know what kind of medicine Kun Thief's Gourd Plum sold. It seemed that this place was considered "house arrest", which made her feel a little relieved.
Ke Yun did not answer her question: "There is paper and pen here, just write your self-report first."
"Readme?"
"Yes, start with yourself, where you were born, who your parents are, where you come from, whether you can read or not, what books you have read since childhood... write them all down."
"Why are you writing this?" Li Yongxun became more and more curious.
"This is a template." Ke Yun pointed to a booklet on the table. "Read it first, then you will know how to write it."
"This girl cannot read or write"
"You'd better know how to read," Ke Yun sneered, "otherwise I'll hire someone to write it for you..."
"I'll write, I'll write," Li Yongxun certainly knew what the other party meant, and immediately surrendered, "I don't want anyone to help me."
While Li Yongxun was immersed in writing materials in the headquarters of the General Political Security Administration, Lin Ming was hiding in an inn in Sanshui County, thinking hard about how to report the investigation results of Gao Shunqin's disappearance.
Gao Xunjian's disappearance has become a completely unsolved case in Guangzhou. After searching in Macau and finding nothing, Lin Ming had to return to Guangzhou in despair. In order to avoid too much outside influence in Guangzhou, he went to Sanshui County again in the name of investigating the case, and then stayed there.
At this time, he had already determined in his heart that the thief Kun was the real culprit behind Gao Shunqin's disappearance, and that Li Yongxun's disappearance was most likely related to Gao Xun's case. However, the current attitude of the Guangzhou officialdom towards the Australians is "peaceful". If I jump out and say that the Kun thieves are the mastermind without knowing the current affairs, I will create a problem for the governor - if an important official is trapped in Lingao, will the Guangdong officialdom not care? If you want to send troops to fight, you are asking for death. Not to mention that the Guangdong side does not dare to send troops to fight. Even if they arrest the big businessman Guo Dongzhu, who is about to return to Guangzhou, and exchange meat tickets for Governor Li, they will not dare to do so - then they have to prepare to be beaten a second time. Wuyangyi was burned down.
If he really wanted to report it like this, he would offend Li Fengjie and the Guangdong officialdom to death.
Lin Ming gritted his teeth and thought for a long time, and finally decided to hold his nose and follow the wishes of the Guangdong officialdom. Gao Xunjian had no choice but to humiliate him and serve his country loyally. Fortunately, all the evidence seized so far points his route after leaving Guangzhou to the north. Except for himself and Li Yongxun, who was captured by the Australians, no one can provide definite clues that it was the Kun thieves who did it. The reason why I stayed in Hao Jing'ao can only be regarded as "rumours", and the Australians can at best regard it as "suspicious".
As for the sister-in-law, she had to save her - otherwise her wife wouldn't be able to agree. Besides, we can't just take advantage of outsiders, but this matter cannot be handled by the government, we have to handle it personally and privately. Fortunately, the Jinyiwei brand is here and is well known among hundreds of households, so it is not difficult to mobilize official resources.
Lin Ming made up his mind and arranged for people to search everywhere, and sent people to Nanxiong Prefecture with great fanfare to investigate the case. In the end, Guangzhou's memorial to the court was that Gao Xunjian left the Yamen on his own initiative and his whereabouts are unknown. According to reliable clues, he should have left Guangdong and entered Jiangxi. However, Guangdong is still "trying its best to trace" this. A large volume of paperwork for handling the case was also attached to the memorial. Now, unless the court appoints another person to investigate the matter, the case will be delayed indefinitely. As for whether the imperial court would send someone to investigate, Li Fengjie was not sure. Even if they did, they might not be able to find out anything about Chou Yinmao. Furthermore, there have been fires and smoke everywhere in the past few years, and the court may not have time to pay attention to this matter.
Li Fengjie asked his subordinates to secretly give Lin Ming three thousand taels of silver as a reward, and another thousand taels as a reward for his subordinates. Except for Gao Xunjian's family, everyone was satisfied.
However, Gao Xunjian's family members were strongly dissatisfied with the outcome, because it was unbelievable that Gao Xunjian would "abandon his official position and leave". The family members of the Gao family repeatedly sent people to the governor's office and other places to complain, but they were all "under strict investigation" and found out. Theoretically speaking, it was just a memorial to explain the situation - Gao's case was not officially closed, so Li Fengjie used this to prevaricate his family members.
"The Gao family said they would send people to Beijing to complain." Li Xijue said to Li Fengjie, who was working in the signing room. He was a little worried that it would be difficult to deal with if the matter got serious-there were no exceptions at home and abroad in ancient and modern times. Moreover, the Gao family are not ordinary people, they have considerable energy for activity.
Li Fengjie said calmly: "Complain? It's not like we men can arrest Mr. Gao as a woman. Who are they going to sue? What charges are they going to sue?"
"Dong Weng is right. It's just that Gao Shunqin has quite a few friends in the capital. In the same year, if the Gao family went to campaign against them..."
"It's nothing more than asking us to 'investigate the case again'. We haven't stopped investigating this matter either. Is there a word on the memorial saying that the case has been closed?"
"It's not like that--" Li Fengjie didn't write the memorial, but all the main staff had consulted it before paying homage.
"If not, we are just checking. What else do they have to say?" Li Fengjie smiled and picked up the book again.
Li Xijue knew that Mr. Dong Weng was a procrastinator and would drag him down until he left office.
"Even though Dong Weng said so, the Gao family still needs some comfort." Li Xijue has been dealing with the Gao family members recently and knows that they are by no means so easy to fight - this is not a matter of giving money.
After thinking about it for a while, he said, "Someone has to take care of this matter. I think there must be a few accomplices in the Gao family. At the beginning, Magistrate Yu told me that the Gao family had several things that he needed to do. At that time, he was in the way of Mr. Gao's affairs. I didn't dare to agree because of my face. Now it seems that Mr. Gao will not return to Guangdong for a while, so just tell Magistrate Yu and do it for them - it just happens to be an investigation." ..
