Chapter 66: Ding Daniu was arrested

The owner of Xinglong Pawnshop is the commander of Jinling Jinyi Guards, and Li Xuan’s brother-in-law is named Liu Chun.

Li Xuan was the son of Li Wenzhong, Duke of Cao in the early Ming Dynasty, and the great-grandson of Li Jinglong, the first god of war in the Ming Dynasty.

Although Li Jinglong opened the door to let Zhu Di into Jinling and was sealed, in the end he was put under house arrest by Zhu Di and died.

It was not until the Hongzhi period, that is, more than ten years ago, that Emperor Hongzhi thought of it, probably because he wanted to earn some face.

Then he found Li Xuan, a descendant of the Li family and great-grandson of Li Jinglong, and gave him the identity of the boss of the Jinling Jinyi Guards and the commander.

As Li Xuan suddenly came to power, his brother-in-law Liu Chun also became more powerful and started a pawn shop.

The pawn shop is a good business, but anyone who comes to pawn here must be down and out.

Liu Chun has Li Xuan as his backer, and he will use any means to deal with the down-and-out people, and he would rather buy or sell them by force.

In just a few years, a big business has been accumulated, and the Xinglong brand has grown to leaps and bounds.

Not long ago, Liu Chun received a letter from shopkeeper Teng Yueqiu. Along with the letter came a treasure called the East China Sea Glazed Pearl.

The orb Liu Chun has given to Liu Yan, the wife of Li Xuan, the commander of the Jinling Jinyi Guards, who is also his third sister.

Through his brother-in-law Liu Xuan Jin Yiwei's network of channels, he failed to find out who this person named Xu Chen was.

This made Liu Chun murmur in his heart. Originally, he didn't want to provoke this mysterious guy until the reputation of Xu's jewelry and Shopkeeper Qiu's second letter reached Jinling.

Liu Chun found his brother-in-law Li Xuan, and after going through such and such secret conversations, a letter was sent from Jinling to Teng Yue Qianhu House.

Teng Yue Qianhu, who guards Qianhu, is affiliated to the Right Army Dudufu and Nanyun Dusi among the Five Military Dudufus, and is directly responsible to the Dusi's commanding officer. It is a completely different system from the Jinyiwei.

Can,

Li Xuan was a third-rank official, and Dong Peng was a fifth-rank official. Their positions were high and low. Moreover, Li Xuan was also the commander of the Jinyi Guards, so Dong Peng had to give him face.

but,

It's just to give face.

..

In Tengyue City, the highest administrative body guards the Qianhu Office, Qianhu Dong Peng.

Dong family hereditary!

In the study room of Qianhusuo, Dong Peng glanced at Shopkeeper Qiu, who had gray hair, a haggard face, and was missing one of his right hands, and then looked at the letter in his hand.

Li Xuan's letter stated that the Xu family's jewelry was attacked by a thief and maimed, and that someone stole the celadon from the previous dynasty that had been passed down from his family.

Dong Peng couldn't help but smile inwardly after reading it. He also knew about Xu's jewelry, and Nuo Da, a wealthy businessman, could value a piece of Yuan Dynasty celadon? Why would he hurt someone for it?

It's not like he took money to justify it.

Come to think of it, even if it's true, I'm afraid it's not that simple.

"Shopkeeper Qiu wants to sue Xu's jewelry for committing murder, injuring people, and taking other people's property, right?"

Shopkeeper Qiu cried immediately after hearing this:

"I hope Mr. Qian will make the decision for the common people. That day, a man named Xu came to sell porcelain. Unexpectedly, he saw Mr. Kan selling celadon.

When the man named Xu saw it, he mentioned to the old man that he wanted to buy it, but the thing belonged to the pawnshop and it was not the old man who could make the decision.

Who can realize it?

A few days later, the man named Xu ordered his men to snatch me away late at night, cut off my right hand, and threatened to kill me if I didn’t give him the celadon."

Shopkeeper Qiu said this with tears streaming down his face. Seeing this, Dong Peng waved his hand:

"Forget it, since Commander Li has sent a letter, Dong has no choice but to give this face.

Wait until I call the person who brought Xu's jewelry and confront the old gentleman face to face. There will always be a way to tell what is right and wrong. If he really took it by force, this thousand households will not tolerate him."

"Someone's coming!"

Dong Peng shouted, and someone immediately answered outside the study door: "Sir"

"Take a few brothers to the south of the city to bring back a few people from Xu's Jewelry, and ask them to assist in the investigation if there is something."

Dong Peng also wanted to see who this mysterious Mr. Xu was.

Unexpectedly, he was able to obtain a large number of glass products without anyone noticing. He sent people to inspect the four doors, but no clues were found.

However, he couldn't help but smile when he thought of the huge glazed carving of a monkey riding a horse at home.

I didn't think I had this thing when I didn't have it, but when I got it, I realized that besides looking good, it's not suitable for eating or drinking.

Daming, Xu's jewelry!

After taking the medicine for two days, Ding Daniu's mother's condition improved greatly. Except that her body was still very thin, she was otherwise just like ordinary people.

Ding Daniu, relieved, entrusted his two new brothers to send his mother back to Yingjiang.

Yingjiang Hundred Households is located in Yingjiang Town, and Ding Daniu and others are military households affiliated with Yingjiang Hundred Households Office under Tengyue Qianhu Office.

but,

Since the Jingnan period, there has been no major war in Nanyun for decades, and military families have passed it down from generation to generation.

The various institutions are gradually becoming bloated from top to bottom, and various deductions are involved in many problems, which leads to the waiting for the big cow and a few people to follow him out. This kind of behavior is considered a deserter, and no one has ever been held accountable.

..

That afternoon, as soon as Ding Daniu returned to the small courtyard after seeing his mother off, Dong Peng's people came looking for her.

A seventh-grade general flag officer, armed with armor and swords, rushed in with several military men holding open fires.

"Whoever is in charge, please come out and answer the question."

Wow,

As soon as the commander-in-chief finished speaking, a dozen strong men in the courtyard stood up and stared at the past.

A dozen strong men stared wide-eyed, and they were stunned to create the momentum of hundreds of people. The chief flag officer was momentarily forced by the momentum and secretly swallowed a mouthful of saliva.

In an instant, my back was wet with sweat!

"Haha, sir, sir, I wonder what's the matter with your visit?"

"Are you the one in charge?" the flag officer forced himself to calm down.

"The young man's surname is Ding. He is valued by his employer, so he can be the master. If the officer has anything to do, just give him his orders."

"Since you are in charge, come with us."

Seeing Ding Daniu's humble attitude, the chief flag officer regained his arrogance unconsciously and gradually raised his nostrils.

"Then, sir, can I give you a few words of advice?"
