"What did you say? Lost me?!" Li Yanchao frowned and looked at the officer in front of him, "How could it be so? Capt. Liu said that you had already followed him and were not discovered!"

Of course, the officer would not tell the truth that he was lured away with food and wine, so he reported without blushing: "The young one did follow the carriage, but then there were so many people on the street that I couldn't even see the carriage.

It disappeared. I guessed that the carriage either went to some alley or turned onto another road. Unfortunately, when I passed the crowd and caught up, it was too late and no trace of the carriage was found. But don’t worry, adults, there are not many in that area.

There is an intersection, as long as more people are sent to investigate, clues will be found soon!"

Li Yanchao frowned even more tightly: "That's not necessary..." He paused, "After all, this is just my private matter. If it is for private matters and requires many government officials to travel around, it would be troublesome to let people know about it.

"

The Chinese New Year is coming soon, and the Yamen will be closed soon. What else can the Yamen be asked to do at this time? If it is just official business, private matters will definitely cause dissatisfaction among the Yamen, and there will be a lot of discussion. He doesn't want to let too many people talk about it.

He knows what he is doing, has one or two catchers, and the catchers are willing to work for him. As long as the reward is enough and no questions are asked, it is already good. After all, he is just acting as the county magistrate. When will this "

If the word "generation" is gone, maybe we can completely take these official servants for our own use, right?

Li Yanchao secretly sighed, a little dissatisfied that his mentor, the prefect of Jinling, had not relented to give him a promise, so he ordered the clerk: "Go ahead and continue to pay attention to the medical clinic. When will those people show up at the medical clinic again, you

Never get lost again!"

The official lowered his head and curled his lips secretly. It seemed that he would not be able to enjoy leisure time during the Chinese New Year this year.

The Yamen ordered to retreat, and someone would give him a reward. If he hadn't thought that the acting magistrate was highly valued by the Jinling Prefecture and was generous, the Yamen would not have gone to handle private matters for him. He followed him.

Although the person's origins are unknown, judging from his dress, words and demeanor, he does not look like a common man. It would be terrible if he offends someone who cannot afford to offend him.

Li Yanchao didn't know what the yamen officer was thinking. He just walked back and forth in the study a few times, then called Capt. Liu over again and asked him to repeat the information he found.

Liu Captou has a somewhat impatient temperament and has been in Shangyuan County for a long time, so his attitude is somewhat arrogant: "Didn't you hear this just now? My subordinates have checked with people in the medical center, and they all said that the man named Tang only wanted to arrest people for supplements."

I have a prescription, but the content of the prescription cannot be found out. My subordinates have already said that they are investigating the case, and they also threatened them that it is related to the previous assassination of the county magistrate. The people in the medical clinic are honest.

They have told everything they know, but what they know is limited. From what I see, the man surnamed Tang does not look like a bad person. Your Excellency may have made a mistake."

Li Yanchao glanced at him displeasedly: "I know if I made a mistake. In short, you first need to find out where the group lives, who they are, what they did in Jinling, and the contents of the prescription.

What is it again... Let’s find out these things first, but remember not to alarm any of them.”

Liu Captou frowned: "My lord, can you tell me clearly what you want to investigate? Even if it is for personal matters, there must be a reason, right? Is it possible that the man named Tang has offended your lord? In this case, the person who is issuing the signature must have a reason."

Wouldn't it be better to imprison him for a few days? Then you can torture him as much as you want, and tell the outside world that he may be related to the murderer of the magistrate. Wait for a few days to pass and it is found that he is not involved in the case.

Let him go. By then half of his life has been lost. What do you want him to do and he still dares not to agree?"

Li Yanchao looked at Capt. Liu with an idiot look: "I said it was a secret investigation, don't you understand? If it gets too big, it's hard to guarantee that people who shouldn't be alerted will be alerted, and it will end badly. I didn't order it.

Don't be too smart! If you cause trouble, I won't protect you!"

Liu Captou secretly curled his lips, thinking that there was nothing taboo about the government investigating the case. It must be shameful to act as the county magistrate. However, he didn't show it on his face. He only said "yes" and didn't mention himself.

I have already frightened people in the medical clinic by pulling the tiger skin of Shangyuan County Magistrate who was assassinated.

Capt. Liu also left, and Li Yanchao sat down in front of the desk in annoyance. If he was not a close man, he would still be unreliable after all. But when he first came to take office, he was not a legitimate new county magistrate.

Boss, it's really difficult. No matter how unreliable Mr. Liu and his men are, they can still help, so they can only make do with it for now. But if you want to be able to use it smoothly, you still have to wait for the Jingzhong family to send you.

People come.

Li Yanchao couldn't figure out what the Imperial Physician Tang wanted to do in Jinling? The people he sent out had never been able to find out where the Imperial Physician Tang lived. Was it just bad luck or was he discovered?

Ever since he passed by Jiangning and met Imperial Physician Tang by chance that day, he had been doubting this. He once wrote a letter and went back to his home in the capital to inquire, and learned that Imperial Physician Tang was still treating His Highness the Crown Prince at Xiaotangshan Palace, and he felt that there was something in this

There's a problem.

He believed that he had not mistaken the person, but it was impossible for a person to be in two places at the same time. If Imperial Physician Tang was in Jinling, why did the news in Beijing say that he was treating His Highness the Crown Prince at Xiaotangshan Palace? What secrets did this contain?

?

Also, when he was wandering around the city two days ago, he once saw Imperial Physician Tang walking with another man. If he did not admit his mistake, that person should be Imperial Physician Shen. Imperial Physician Shen was also a member of the Imperial Hospital, and was treating

He was very skilled in physical matters. When his grandfather was still alive, his father had asked the elders of his direct descendants to help invite Dr. Shen to come to his home to treat his grandfather. It can be said that Li Yanchao was more familiar with Dr. Shen than Dr. Tang.

Due to the cold winter recently, his mother had been feeling a little unwell. She complained in her letter that Dr. Shen was away and could not invite someone to prescribe a prescription. The reason why Dr. Shen was not on duty at the Capital Hospital was that he took a long leave and returned to his hometown.

Went to visit relatives. It is said that when he left Beijing, he was traveling with Marquis Yongjia, and took the Holy Emperor's orders to take care of the bodies of Marquis Yongjia and his wife on the way south.

Dr. Shen is obviously from Hangzhou, he mentioned it himself. Since he is going back to his hometown to visit relatives, why is it that he appears in Jinling City at this late age? Even if he has to take care of the health of Yongjiahou and his wife, and Yongjiahou and his wife are now

If you are in Jinling, there is no reason to celebrate the New Year in Jinling, right? And why does Dr. Shen travel with Dr. Tang?

Li Yanchao knew very well that the current Crown Prince of the East Palace has been in frail health since he was born. Over the years, he has been sick from time to time. Of the 360 ​​days in a year, His Royal Highness can be healthy and worry-free for 60 days.

, is a happy event celebrated by the whole world. But now as he gets older, his health becomes worse and worse. He got seriously ill at the end of last year, and the news coming out of the palace is not good. His Royal Highness has not been alive for more than half a year.

After showing up, the government and the public have already been talking about it. If it weren't for the emperor's pressure, chaos would have broken out in the capital. In the past year, several nobles from the clan have been fighting with each other. Isn't this the reason?

?

Li Yanchao suspected that at this juncture, the imperial physician who specialized in treating His Royal Highness the Prince of the East Palace, together with another imperial physician, secretly rushed to Jiangnan, most likely to seek medicine or prescription. Li Yanchao came to Shangyuan County to serve as acting magistrate.

It hasn't been long, but I have heard people mention several famous doctors around Jinling. For example, the Ye's Medical Clinic that Imperial Physician Tang visited today is one of them. Maybe it's because the Imperial Hospital can't do anything about His Royal Highness's illness.

Then you put down your arrogance and came to the people for advice?

Li Yanchao felt in his heart that they were asking for trouble and wasting their efforts in vain. Who didn't know that His Highness the Crown Prince's illness would never be cured? It was just a matter of time. The emperor was reluctant to let go of his son and insisted on tormenting him, but he was still not sure whether to be emperor.

The choice of heir caused a disturbance in the capital. Li Yanchao only hoped that the emperor would choose his heir as soon as possible, so that officials below him could determine their positions as soon as possible.

Isn't the youngest son of the King of Shu very good? The Queen Mother likes it too. Speaking of which, that noble man is still related to him by marriage, and he can also be regarded as the cousin of the youngest son of the King of Shu.

Li Yanchao calculated that he had to find out where Imperial Doctor Tang was staying in Jinling City as soon as possible and find out what kind of good medicine he was looking for. At the same time, he also wanted to send a letter to Beijing to ask his mother to try to contact Princess Shu as soon as possible.

Let's see what the other party's plan is. If he can get the good prescription that Imperial Physician Tang found in Jiangnan, or even get the good medicine that he got and prepare to give to the prince first, he might be able to help the Princess of Shu.

Li Yanchao's heartbeat was a little fast. He felt that he had found a way to the sky, but he was not worried that he would steal the chicken but lose the rice. What did he have to be afraid of? Princess Shu had the final say in everything, and there were still others above them.

The Queen Mother is here. No matter who becomes the emperor's heir, he will not dare to neglect the Queen Mother or the Tu family. As long as the Tu family is here, the Li family will be fine.

While Li Yanchao was planning his little plan there, Zhao Mo and the prince were sitting together again, eating their slightly late dinner. The meal was simple and delicious, as always made by the imperial chef. It was just that they were eating delicious food in the past.

The food has become a little tasteless today.

There were only Zhao Mo and the Crown Prince in the room. The smile on Zhao Mo's face remained unchanged, and he still spoke respectfully and kindly to the Crown Prince, as if the unpleasant thing that happened more than an hour ago had never happened.

The prince smiled lightly and listened to Zhao Mo talking about his experience in Qinzhuang, what Qin Bai taught him, his agreement with his cousin Qin Hanzhen, and the surprise before leaving. When Zhao Mo said, this time the tea leaves

If everything goes well with the business, it will probably bring him a profit of more than a thousand taels, enough for him to live comfortably in Jinling for a few years. When his expression finally changed a little.

He put away the smile on his face, stared at Zhao Mo with some seriousness, and asked: "What do you mean by this? In your spare time, you ask your subordinates to do a few transactions, just to make some expenses, how can you really plan to do it?"

Have you settled down in Jiangnan? You were just hesitant before and didn't really plan to stay for a long time. How come you suddenly changed your mind one day later?" He didn't believe that it was the Qin family who persuaded Zhao Mo to stay. The attitude of the Qin Bai family

It had always been obvious that they had brought Zhao Mo to Jiangnan and would take him back to the capital.

The prince stared at Zhao Mo's face: "Guang Lu, you said this deliberately, but you want to prove something to me?!"

Even Zhao Mo's expression changed now. Is this illusion that he has been trying to maintain really going to be torn apart?
