Comprehensive Wu Jianghu: I am Dali Temple Minister

Chapter 105 Where is the Grain Stored?

Water transport terminal.

Di Zhiyuan was looking at An Shigeng's dossier including An's house.

Six doors, Shenhou Mansion, Hulong Villa, including information about Jin Yiwei, who was in the army of the Son of Heaven, all files related to the An family were brought.

After Di Zhiyuan pretended to disappear in the morning, he hid in the Water Transport Wharf, waiting for Yang Qingyuan's order, ready to take the Beijing camp out at any time.

During the waiting time, Di Zhiyuan summarized all the information and clues again.

This time, he found a doubt.

Why did Li Bailiang's porter boatman, Zhao Dehan of the household department, and Qian Liangping, the supervisory censor, die one after another after Li Bailiang's case happened.

The deaths of the porter, the boatman, and even Zhao Qian are easy to explain, and they should be killed to prevent the news from leaking out.

But what about Li Bailiang? !Why did Li Bailiang also die at this node? !

Could it be that Li Bailiang also knew about the theft of grain storage?Otherwise, it would be impossible to explain why Li Bailiang also died at the same time.

Although Li Zhong, the steward of Li Bailiang's case, was also plotting, the real cause of Li Bailiang's death was the blood drinking Gu.

Li Bailiang's life and death are actually controlled by An's family, but Li Zhong's plan was used by An's family, which became a cover-up of the facts.

Calculated according to the time, even if Li Bailiang is killed at this time, An Shigeng will not be able to control Li Bailiang's fleet in a short period of time, and safely transport the grain out of the city?

The reason for killing Li Bailiang is no longer valid. Combined with the dock epidemic and Zhao Qian's death, the only answer left is to kill Li Bailiang!

But how did Li Bailiang know about An's family stealing grain? !

Di Zhiyuan had a hypothesis, what if Li Bailiang was an accomplice of the An family? !Then it is reasonable that Li Bailiang was murdered by An's family.

In this way, there is another possibility that the grain storage is located in Li Bailiang's warehouse.

Thinking of this, Di Zhiyuan immediately sent people in disguise to come to Li Bailiang's three warehouses in the capital, but nothing was gained and everything was normal.

Two of the warehouses are filled with all kinds of goods, and there is no grain.

The other one was empty, nothing but a pile of sacks and some rats.

There was an error in Di Zhiyuan's reasoning, but the timing of Li Bai's death was indeed strange.

Unable to understand, Di Zhiyuan walked to the window. The pier used to be crowded with cars and horses, but now there were only patrolling soldiers. The water surface where thousands of sails were racing and passing boats was full of various boats.

Every day the water transport docks are blocked, the pressure on Yang Qingyuan increases. The water transport docks are important places for the collection and distribution of various materials in the capital, and relying on land alone, the materials needed by the capital cannot last for a few days.

At this moment, Di Zhiyuan saw the boats parked by the pier through the window, and the flag with the word "Li" was the most flying above the boats.

"Go and invite Master Liu from the Yamen of the Water Transportation Department!"

After finishing speaking, Di Zhiyuan hesitated, "When you invite him, invite the scribes under his command too!"

Di Zhiyuan thought of Liu Jibai's daily work - stamping, even if he couldn't answer his own questions, he should find a reliable person to ask!

"Master Di, you call me!"

Soon, Liu Ji brought the three scribes to the house where Di Zhiyuan was staying.

"Come and serve tea to Master Liu!"

Then let Liu Jibai sit on the side and let himself play, don't disturb the business.

Liu Jibai is also very clear about his position, he is an old tool man, and even if he wants to help, he can't help him!He doesn't know anything about water transportation.

Calling several scribes to the window, Di Zhiyuan asked, "Are all these merchant ships with Li characters flags owned by Li Bailiang?!"

Several clerks went to the window to have a look, and then one of them said, "My lord, I don't dare to say it's true, but among the ten ships with the Li character flag on the pier, at least seven of them belonged to the Li family." merchant ships."

"That's right! Li Bailiang is the No. 1 shipping company in Beijing and China. Apart from official ships, Li Bailiang's fleet should be the largest!" another clerk added.

"After Li Bailiang died, are these fleets still operating?!"

"Well, after Li Bailiang's death, Li Zhong was arrested and brought to justice. Now the Li Mansion has been torn apart, and there is no one in charge. These ships are also parked here."

Di Zhiyuan can confirm that there is no problem with the ships at the water transport terminal. During the thorough investigation of the water transport before, the merchant ships parked at the terminal, whether they are official ships directly under the Ministry of Households or private merchant ships, were checked, and no grain was found. .

The real question is why these ships are parked at this water terminal.

"Don't the Li family have their own dock?!" Di Zhiyuan asked.

"It's true that there is no dock, but Li's family has a large dock. They can build and repair ships by themselves, but it's in the outer city."

Shendu occupies a vast area and is the largest city in the world. It is divided into inner and outer cities, separated by the inner city wall.

Although the original God City was also number one in the world, it was far from being as grand as it is today. Taizu built another city wall outside the inner city, making the God City expand from the original [-] hectares to [-] hectares.

As a wonder in the world, it is Baiyujing in the heaven, which is inferior to the gods.

"Outer city?!" Looking at the gradually darkening sky, Di Zhiyuan muttered to himself.

The words of the scribe aroused his interest.

---------------

Outside the Anfu, as the pigeon flew out, Li Xunhuan and Cui Lueshang who had been waiting on the tall building immediately performed lightness kung fu.

In order to prevent the pigeons from getting lost, An Fu released two pigeons.

This kind of carrier pigeon, known as the Lingfeng pigeon, flies extremely fast and rarely loses its direction. It is the top grade of carrier pigeons.

Li Xunhuan and Cui Lueshang followed behind the two Lingfeng pigeons with their brilliant lightness kung fu.

In the night, two extremely swift figures moved up and down in the city of Chang'an, with a leap of several feet, the distance was more than ten feet.

When it comes to lightness kung fu, both Li Xunhuan and Cui Lueshang are top-notch in the world.

Needless to say, Cui Lueshang is known as "Fate Chaser", his legs are exquisite, his lightness skills are excellent, and he is good at tracking.

As for Li Xunhuan, originally he was a rare master of lightness kung fu in the world. After meeting Yang Qingyuan, Yang Qingyuan also taught him the essence of many exquisite lightness kung fu, such as Wudang's Tiyun Zong, Shaolin's eight steps to catch cicadas, one reed to cross the river, Kunlun's Yunlong Jiuxian, and even Yang Qingyuan's friends taught him the self-taught Fengwu Jiutian.

In Yang Qingyuan's words, the combat effectiveness of an ADC with super high movement speed and displacement is difficult to measure. Miss Wei En has already proved this.

Although Li Xunhuan didn't know who this girl named Wei En was, nor did he understand the meaning behind Yang Qingyuan's words, but he had learned a lot about the essence of lightness kung fu taught by Yang Qingyuan.When it comes to lightness kung fu and physical skills, Li Xunhuan is even more than chasing his life.

The two followed the pigeon all the way, from the inner city to the outer city directly.

Just as the carrier pigeons landed, before anyone came to meet them, two stones popped out from Li Xun Huan's fingertips, hitting the two carrier pigeons with precision.

It wasn't until the two of them confirmed the four weeks that they had arrived at a dock.
