Chapter three hundred and seventy fifth, I was surprised.
Yang Peng returned to the mansion. Xue Fu immediately greeted him, clasping his fists and saying: "Master, Miss Han Bing is gone." "Gone? Where?"
Master, take leave." Yang Peng sighed melancholy, "Between her and me..., it's okay to leave." Then he walked towards the hall. As soon as he sat down in the hall, a secret guard rushed in to report.
Report: "The official Liu is here."
As soon as he finished speaking, Liu Ping, who was dressed as a wealthy businessman, walked in quickly. When he saw Yang Peng, he cupped his fists and bowed: "Little brother, pay homage to the city lord." Yang Peng smiled and said: "You are here? I was about to send someone to find you.
How is the situation going?" "The younger brother is here to report the progress of the matter to the elder brother. Things are going very smoothly. We claimed to the public that we were going to dig a lotus pond, and no one doubted our actions."
Yang Peng nodded, thought for a moment, then raised his head, "You have to be careful not to have too frequent contact with the people over there, and be careful to hide your identity." "I understand." Yang Peng asked: "According to the current progress, how long will it take?
Completed?" Shi En said: "It is estimated that it will be completed within half a month." Yang Peng waved his hand, "There is no need to be in such a hurry. You have to pay special attention after crossing the street. Don't do construction during the day and at night, so as not to be noticed by them.
Movement. Tell the people over there to report the situation immediately." "Yes."
Yang Peng returned to the mansion, and as soon as he sat down, Liu Ping came in a hurry. "Brother, the tunnel has been dug!" Liu Ping said excitedly. Yang Peng's eyes lit up, "Have you gone in?" "Just now, little brother,
I walked specifically along the tunnel and entered Taishi Pang's warehouse."
Yang Peng laughed loudly, "Okay! Great!" After a pause, he turned to Yang Jiumei and said: "Jiumei, go and call Zhang Yan and Zhang Yan." Yang Jiumei responded and ran down.
…
The next night, there were no lights in the courtyard to the north of Taishi Pang's residence, but countless people were busy in the darkness. They kept carrying out large boxes one after another from the tunnel. The boxes looked very heavy.
It was very difficult for the two strong men to carry it. Hundreds of people were busy until the cockcrow. After dawn, the earth-moving truck came out of the yard as usual, shining on the tarpaulin, and headed out of the city.
, Shi Jin, wearing the clothes of an ordinary servant, followed.
The earth-moving convoy arrived in front of the city gate. At this time, the sergeant at the city gate was checking the passers-by. This is a common practice. The sergeant guarding the city gate has the right to inspect all people and things entering and leaving the capital. The city gate captain
Staring at the slowly approaching earth-moving convoy, the convoy stopped. The driver at the head greeted the captain, who nodded and let it go without asking for inspection. It turns out that during these days, the city has
The captain of the school often saw them carrying soil out, and he was used to it. Therefore, he didn't take their actions out of the city seriously today. There is also a more important point. These days, the captain has benefited a lot.
, naturally they will not come for inspection.
The convoy left the city smoothly and quickly arrived in a forest more than ten miles away from the city gate. A huge team of carriages was already waiting here. Chen Jie immediately ordered everyone to lift the tarpaulin on the earth-moving truck, revealing countless
The big boxes came. Then everyone started to transfer all the big boxes on the earth-moving truck to the carriage. Then Chen Jie led the horse-drawn carriage team to leave the woods and travel quickly to the northeast. Others drove the earth-moving truck back to the capital.
.……
Wang Qinruo sighed: "The gift from Master Taishi must be a rare treasure, and it will definitely make His Majesty Longyan very happy! We can also take the opportunity to feast our eyes on it!" Taishi Pang laughed loudly, stroking his long beard under his chin and said: "No need.
Until that day, I will open your eyes today!" Wang Qinruo and others showed flattered expressions, and they all stood up and worshiped: "Thank you so much, Master!" Master Pang laughed proudly.
Li Yuhou, who went to get the treasure, stumbled in and ran in panic, clasping his fists and saying: "No, it's bad, everything is gone!!" Taishi Pang was confused and said angrily: "What's wrong? What's missing?"
?" Li Yuhou swallowed, "The treasure house, all the treasures in the treasure house are gone!" Master Pang was shocked, stood up suddenly, and said angrily: "What nonsense are you talking about? How could it be missing!"
"I don't dare to talk nonsense. I just took people to the treasure house to extract the blood jade coral on the order of the Prime Minister. However, when I opened the door of the treasure house, I found that the entire treasure house was empty!" Taishi Pang's expression changed.
Turning pale, he quickly ran out of the study and towards the treasure house. Others quickly followed. When they arrived at the gate of the treasure house, they saw all the guards responsible for guarding the treasure house kneeling on both sides of the door, looking terrified.
Master Pang hurriedly rushed into the treasure house and was completely shocked when he saw the scene in front of him. The treasure house that was originally full was empty, there was nothing left, and it was very clean. Master Pang almost fainted, "Why, how could this happen?" Li Yuhou
He quickly stepped forward and clasped his fists, saying: "This is what happens when the villain comes."
Huan Jing shouted angrily: "Zhang Jue! Zhang Jue!" Zhang Jue, the captain of the guard responsible for guarding the treasure house. A capable man in armor ran in and crawled on the ground, lying down in front of Master Pang, shivering all over.
Trembling. Taishi Pang shouted angrily and asked: "Come and tell me, what is going on? Where have all the treasures gone?"
Zhang Jue hurriedly said: "You villain, I don't know!" Master Pang was so angry that he pointed at Zhang Jue with trembling fingers: "Waste! Waste! What is the use of raising waste like you!..." Zhang Jue was frightened.
I was about to die, and I felt like I was in danger.
Lin Te came to Master Pang and whispered: "Master, please calm down for now. There is no way that so much treasure has disappeared, it must have been stolen by someone! The top priority is to act quickly to find the thief and the treasure! Expand now
Search, maybe you can find some clues."
Master Pang nodded in agreement, looked at Zhang Jue who was kneeling in front of him, and shouted loudly: "Come on, lock him up for me." Immediately, several guards came in and took Zhang Jue out, and Zhang Jue kept holding on.
He begged for mercy: "Grand Master, the villain has been wronged, the villain has been wronged..."
Grand Master Pang sighed, cursed a few words angrily, then turned to Li Yuhou and said: "Let the guards carefully search the inside and outside of the treasure house." Li Yuhou agreed, ran out, and called the guards to start the search.
The guards immediately started searching everywhere.
Suddenly, a guard who was searching in the warehouse shouted: "Grand Master, there is a tunnel here!" After hearing the words, everyone immediately ran over and saw that the huge green brick on the floor was lifted up, revealing an almost four-foot-square tunnel.
The holes are so dark that I don’t know how deep they are and where they lead.
Everyone felt very unbelievable. The anxious Master Pang immediately wanted to go down and check. Wang Qinruo quickly stopped Master Pang and said, "Master Pang, please be patient. Maybe the thief hasn't left yet. If you rush over there, you will be in danger!" Master Pang thought deeply.
, turned to Li Yuhou and ordered: "Call all the guards immediately and enter the tunnel to search." Li Yuhou agreed and ran down.
After a while, nearly a thousand guards in the Grand Master's Mansion were summoned and filed into the tunnel. Grand Master Pang waited anxiously at the entrance of the cave. Finally, Li Yuhou came out, clasping his fists and saying: "Master, this tunnel actually passed through
The main street leads all the way to the Wu Mansion across the street." That abandoned mansion was originally the residence of Wu Hou, his servant, so many people still call it Wu Mansion.
"Did you find the treasure and the thief?" Taishi Pang asked urgently. "No treasure was found, no people were seen, nothing." The attention turned to Shangjing, and Chen Jie escorted the convoy to finally arrive in Zhuozhou. Zhuozhou, south of Tianjing
Now Yang Peng's money and food are secretly stored here, and this has become Yang Peng's secret base.
Chen Jie met the brothers. Both parties were very happy and exchanged greetings. Duan Zhixian asked impatiently: "Chen Jie, how is the eldest brother's situation?" All the brothers showed concern. Chen Jie
He smiled and said: "Brother, everything is fine!" When the brothers heard this, they all felt relieved a little. Duan Zhixian said angrily: "How can it be better to be under house arrest in the capital by that dog emperor!" He raised his eyebrows, "I said why should we?
If you feel so wronged, why don’t you go and take your eldest brother back immediately and just rebel against him!"
Liu Zhiliang said: "Brother Duan, please be patient. He has his own plans for this matter. We just have to follow his instructions. We must not be reckless and ruin his plan!" Everyone nodded. Duan Zhixian snorted angrily.
Li Xu glanced at the big boxes being moved into the warehouse and asked curiously: "How much have you harvested from Mrs. Pang?"
Chen Jie turned his head and took a look, shook his head and said: "We were in a hurry to transfer it out, and we didn't have time to do statistics." Duan Zhixian said angrily: "Then hurry up and do statistics!" Then he rushed to the officers who were proficient in calculation and accounting who had been prepared.
He shouted: "What are you guys doing standing around here? Go and do your work! Let the Sa family figure it out. This is the property of the eldest brother. Don't make any mistakes!" Several officers responded quickly and ran into the warehouse.
.
Chen Jie took out a letter from his arms and handed it to Liu Zhiliang, "Zhiliang, this is the handwritten letter that my eldest brother asked me to give to you." Liu Zhiliang quickly took the letter, opened it, and read it carefully. Duan Zhixian anxiously
Asked: "What did the elder brother say?"
Liu Zhiliang smiled and said: "Brother said that we can discuss with Qian Letian how to use the money. We can use it as we want without saving money for him." Everyone laughed. Duan Zhixian asked anxiously: "Did brother say anything?
When will you come back?" Liu Zhiliang frowned and shook his head, "Brother didn't say anything about this, he only explained the next step." He turned to Li Xu and said, "General Li Xu," he handed over the letter in his hand.
"This is the task assigned to you by elder brother." Li Xu quickly took the letter, read it again, and said in surprise: "Do this?!"
Liu Zhiliang frowned and said: "The imperial court must not have planned to come back, so the elder brother had no choice but to ask us to take such action to further put pressure on the imperial court!" Duan Zhixian asked angrily: "What did the elder brother ask Brother Li Xu to do?"
What?" Li Xu said: "Big brother asked me to lead a group of cavalry dressed as Liao cavalry to attack the northern part of Beijing."
Everyone showed a look of surprise. At dinner that day, the officers who went to count the spoils came back. The leading officer excitedly reported to everyone: "For the general information, we have calculated the number..."
…”
"How much?" Duan Zhixian asked hurriedly. The officer opened the register in his hand and said excitedly: "The total value of all gold and silver treasures is 6,337,893 taels of silver..." Upon hearing this amount
, everyone was dumbfounded, Duan Zhixian shouted at the top of his voice: "So many?! Did you say it wrong?"
The officer shook his head and said: "We checked twice and it is indeed 6,337,893 taels of silver. It is absolutely correct!" Everyone was stunned for a while before they came back to their senses. Shi Jin exclaimed.
"His grandma has so much money!" Liu Zhiliang frowned and said, "This big corrupt official is so rich that he can't match the country! I really don't know how he got so much money!?"
Duan Zhixian laughed and said: "No matter how he did it, it all belongs to us now! Haha, although these guys are hateful, I suddenly felt that it would be great if every corrupt official was so rich!"
Everyone laughed. The officer said, "Generals, I haven't finished speaking yet." Everyone looked at him in confusion. The officer glanced at the register in his hand and said, "What I just said is the value of gold and silver treasures."
.But there are still some things, those antique calligraphy and paintings, we don’t know much about, and we don’t know how much they are worth.”
Duan Zhixian stared and asked: "Are there antique calligraphy and paintings?" The officer nodded, "Not only, but there are many, most of them are from the Tang Dynasty, and there are also some from other dynasties, but we don't know much about antique calligraphy and paintings.
It is therefore impossible to estimate the value.”
Duan Zhixian patted his bald head and smiled excitedly: "Oh, Master Pang is so generous to us! I really want to kiss him twice!" Everyone laughed. Liu Zhiliang told the officer: "Take those antique calligraphy and gold paintings
Silver and jewelry should be stored separately." The officer responded and ran down. Liu Zhiliang turned around and said to Da Lang: "Brother Li Xu, you must rush back to the capital tomorrow and inform your elder brother of the situation here." Li Xu clicked.
nod.……
Chen Jie hurried back to the capital and reported the situation to Yang Peng. When Yang Peng heard about the value of the treasure, he showed an expression of great surprise and said with a smile: "Okay, with such a treasure, we will be able to make money within a few years."
No need to worry about money! Haha, Taishi Pang really helped us a lot! It's a pity that I can't express my gratitude to him in person, otherwise I must thank him properly!" Chen Jie, Zhang Yan, and Liu Ping all laughed.
At the same time, in the Grand Master's Mansion, the atmosphere was very depressing. Grand Master Pang was sitting at the top, his expression cloudy, his brows furrowed, and his eyes showed the urge to kill from time to time. Kaifeng Fuyin stood in the middle, with several of Grand Master Pang's
The confidants sat on either side.
Master Pang glanced at Kaifeng Fu Yin, and asked with great anger: "What do you, Kaifeng Fu Yin, do for a living? It has been so many days, and you haven't caught even half of the thieves!" Kaifeng Fu Yin's heart trembled, and he hurriedly hurriedly asked.
Said: "I have really tried my best! We followed the clues all the way to Jingxi East Road, but all the clues disappeared on Jingxi East Road, and we have no idea where the thief will go next! This shows that the thief not only made careful planning in advance,
And it shows that the thieves are definitely not ordinary thieves, they must have unimaginable power and efficiency, otherwise they would never be able to make so many treasures disappear without a trace in such a short period of time!..."
Master Pang waved his hands impatiently and said, "Don't talk nonsense to me! I'll give you another half month. If you still can't catch the thief and find the treasure, you, Kaifeng Prefect, should stop doing this!"
The governor of Kaifeng was horrified. "Get out of here!" The governor of Kaifeng, as if he had been pardoned, quickly saluted Master Pang and left in a hurry.
Grand Master Pang felt a splitting headache and couldn't help but rub his temples with his hands. Wang Qinruo cupped his fists and said, "Grand Master, there is no need to worry too much! Given his status as Grand Master, I believe he will be able to make up for the losses in a short time!"
Master Pang became anxious and couldn't wait to go down to the entrance of the cave. Seeing this, the others quickly followed. A large group of people filed out from the exit and had already reached the garden of the Wu Mansion. This was a garden that had been abandoned for a long time, and in the middle was a dried up garden.
Moreover, there is a lake covered with weeds. There is a water pavilion covered by thatch on the left side of the lake. On the far side of the lake, there is a tall pavilion, but it has collapsed and has no energy. The tunnel exit is at
On the right side of the lake shore, there are many guards from the Taishi Mansion scattered throughout the garden, searching carefully.
Master Pang glanced at the mansion of his former political enemy, and he couldn't help but feel some emotion in his heart. His thoughts quickly returned to the matter at hand, and asked Li Yuhou: "Don't you find anything?" Li Yuhou clasped his fists and said: "
Everywhere has been searched and it is very deserted, as if no one has ever been here, and no trace of any treasure chests has been found."
Grand Master Pang was furious, "Damn it! Damn it! Could it be that thieves can't fly? Can so many treasures disappear out of thin air? You have to dig three feet into the ground to find them for me!" Li Yuhou quickly agreed and ran away.
Go down. Wang Qinruo came to Master Pang and whispered: "Master, I'm afraid the thieves have already evacuated. I'm afraid there won't be anything to gain if you just search here."
Grand Master Pang nodded and said to Yang Jian: "Go to the Kaifeng Mansion Office immediately and investigate with the prefect in the whole city. If anyone can provide clues to the whereabouts of the thief, I will guarantee that he will be promoted and make a fortune!" Wang Qinruo agreed and ran down.
Grandmaster Pang looked at the deserted courtyard in front of him, feeling extremely anxious. The property he had accumulated over the past decades had disappeared overnight, just like a dream! Who did it?
Who is it? Master Pang can’t wait to cut the thief hiding in the darkness into pieces!
However, the man behind the scenes was standing in the attic of his mansion at the moment, looking at the noisy and busy scene in the capital with the mentality of watching a drama. Zhang Yan and Liu Ping stood beside him. Yang Peng said with a smile: "
It’s so lively!” Zhang Yan smiled, and Liu Ping said worriedly: “I wonder if they will find anything?”
Yang Peng patted Liu Ping on the shoulder, "Don't worry, we have wiped out all the clues. They can't investigate anything. They are just working in vain. What I want to know most now is what we have gained this time.
How many?"
Zhang Yan said: "We were in a hurry to move out and there was no statistics. We will have to wait until Dalang comes back to know the specific number, but it is estimated that the value will not be less than three million taels of silver." Yang Peng nodded and looked at the city again.
Seeing the busy scene, he clapped his hands and said, "Lunch should be ready, let's go have lunch." Soon after, Yang Peng, Zhang Yan, Liu Ping, and Yang Peng's women sat around a large round table eating and drinking.
Chatting happily. This scene is really different from the hustle and bustle outside at the moment.
Yang Peng and his party traveled day and night. Two days later, in the evening, the party was still on the official road. At this time, the rolling green mountains had turned into blurry shadows, and the woods on both sides were swaying and rustling in the wind.
, like a restless monster; there was not a single pedestrian on the official road, and it seemed that there were only a dozen or so people like Yang Peng in the world, and it was completely lonely.
Suddenly, the sound of fighting came from the front. Everyone reined in their horses and turned around, only to see more than a dozen masked men in black besieging a person by the official road in front. Yang Peng frowned and galloped away.
Go up, and everyone follows closely behind.
More than a dozen people rushed into the battle circle and killed five or six masked men in black at once. The masked men in black were shocked and quickly retreated to a place. The leader pointed a knife at Yang Peng and shouted:
"Who are you?"
Yang Peng said coldly: "Don't leave anyone alive!" The secret guards immediately took out the Crescent Flying Blade and threw it out. The masked men in black were hit by the knife and fell to the ground. The few who survived were frightened and hurriedly turned around and ran away. Chen
Jie led a few hidden killers and chased after him on horseback. They saw the light of swords flying, and the remaining masked men in black were also chopped to the ground! So far, all the dozen or so masked men in black were killed.
!
Yang Peng got off his horse, walked to the person who was surrounded by the men in black, helped her up, and asked with a smile: "Are you okay?" Who do you think this person is? Haha, it's Han Bing. She looked a little bit.
He was pale, wearing a black warrior uniform, showing off his strong and charming figure, his hair was tied in a ponytail, and the sword in his hand was stained with blood.
Han Bing nodded, glanced at the bodies of the men in black around him, and said with lingering fear: "If you hadn't arrived in time, I would have died here!" Yang Peng looked at her carefully and saw that there were no wounds on her body.
Then he felt relieved. He glanced at the bodies of the men in black around him and asked, "Who is chasing you?" Han Bing frowned and shook his head.
At this time, Chen Jie came over and handed an iron plate to Yang Peng, "This was found on the killers." Yang Peng took the iron plate, looked at it, frowned and said, "This is the customs clearance token from the Taishi Mansion.
"
What happened after all? Let’s look at the breakdown next time.
