Du Teng thought for a while and said: "First of all, we must do it as soon as possible. We have sent so many notices to find Wan Niang in Songfan and Long'an Mansion. Although Ye Yunxuan is in the capital, I am also worried about whether he will know about it."
"I also have some regrets. It would be better if it was more secretive."
"What did Zhiran say? Who would have thought that Wan Niang would be taken as his concubine? Besides, if he didn't do this, he might not be able to get clues."
"The prison will continue."
"I think that we must bring Lu Tengen in. At the same time, we must find a reliable person in Xuanyuan Guan."
Zhao Ran said: "Abbot Bai of Long'an Mansion has also been searching hard."
Du Teng would nod: "Then invite him to go out with us."
In fact, based on Zhao Ran's intuition, he can almost confirm that the concubine Ye Yunxuan has taken in is probably the girl he is looking for. The issue he and Du Teng will discuss now is who to bring in to share the credit. The problem.
Bai Tengming, like Du Tenghui, is his staunch ally. This old guy must be brought in. Ye Yunxuan's old house is at the foot of Qingcheng Mountain and belongs to the capital Lu Tengen's territory. This must also be brought in. Not only does he need to contribute problem, otherwise Lu Tengen will complain about it in the future, offending a powerful sect in the secular world for nothing, and the gain outweighs the loss; Xuanyuan Guan also needs an insider, and it must be Zhike Xue Tengqian.
Including Du Teng and himself, there are these four people!
Needless to say, Zhao Ran summoned Lingyan Nangui Taoist and flew directly to the capital. After arriving in front of Jingshou Palace, he came to visit Lu Tengen of the prison.
After waiting for half an hour in the flower hall where distinguished guests were received in the living room, Lu Jianyuan hurried in and said apologetically: "Forgive me, Du Jianyuan, Zhiran, I went to the Taoist temple below. It was too late to greet you, oops." Really, it¡¯s not my fault for keeping you two waiting for so long"
Du Teng would smile and say: "It's our fault that you came here without informing us in advance. We also took advantage of Zhiran and came by flying geese. However, we were slow to inform you through letters, so we simply came to our door and became an uninvited guest."
After exchanging greetings, Zhao Ran signaled to stand aside and told Lu Tengen about Wan Niang.
Ye Yunxuan has not clearly offended Lu Tengen, but where he is, Lu Tengen, who has worked in Xuanyuan Guan for many years, knows very well. Lu Tengen himself is a member of Li Yunhe and Zhao Yunlou, and he is happy to hear that Ye Yunxuan is involved in the case.
At the moment, Zhao Ran wrote two more letters, asking Lingyan to go to Long'an Mansion and Qingcheng Mountain respectively, and bring Bai Tengming and Xue Tengqian over.
In nature, this was a private case and was against the rules. Zhao Ran would definitely not make such a mistake, so he asked Dongfang Li for the authorization document stamped by Sanqing Pavilion, and Zhao Ran took the lead in the name of Sanqing Pavilion.
This is to directly bypass Zhao Yunlou, but since the matter is serious and there is no solid evidence, this can only be done for the time being. We will report it to Zhao Yunlou after we get the solid evidence.
Zhao Ran emphasized: "Everyone, the purpose of this case is to find out the whereabouts of Wan Niang and provide clear evidence for Dongji Pavilion and Sanqing Pavilion. In addition, we also need to verify why Ye Yunxuan hid Wan Niang secretly. Whether he is involved in the Xiu'an case investigated by Dongji Pavilion and Sanqing Pavilion, and whether he has participated in such immoral and violation of precepts, these are two things we need to focus on."
Zhao Ran is very concerned about both things, but the other four are more concerned about the latter one. As long as Ye Yunxuan is involved, he can legitimately investigate other problems. Don't believe that he is a seamless egg!
The five people held a secret discussion in Jingshou Palace, assigned tasks to each, and a high-level task force was established.
With the supervision of the three mansions and one of the eight deacons of Xuanyuan Guan planning and taking action with all their strength, Zhao Ran didn¡¯t have to worry about the rest. Those who can achieve this position are all veterans with decades of experience. They consider many things more thoughtfully than Zhao Ran, so there is no need for Zhao Ran to take action.
First of all, it was confirmed from Li Zheng of Li Cun Village that in early September last year, Ye Yunxuan did take a concubine in the house at the foot of Qingcheng Mountain. At that time, he gave some food to the tenants and other people in the village. The housekeeper Ye also invited the village's housekeeper The elder, Li Zheng and others had a meal, but they never saw the bride.
After the news was confirmed, a trustworthy official from Jingshou Palace came forward and set up a game in the gambling house. He detained a servant in the inner house and asked about the new concubine in the house. After asking, it was confirmed that the concubine Xina was named "Wan Niang", who was very similar to the person in the portrait, and her characteristics were completely consistent.
Zhao Ran already knew these things, but he couldn't say it. If he said it, it would bring out the affairs between Zhang Wujin and A Luo. Now it would be better for these four people to verify it in person.
At this point, significant progress has been made. But one is very badThe latest news is that Wan Niang was secretly transferred away in August and her whereabouts are unknown.
Now everyone understood that this was probably a large-scale search for people in northwest Sichuan and Ye Yunxuan had discovered it. Although Zhao Ran did not explain why he was looking for someone or what he was looking for, a knowledgeable person would understand at a glance that the Taoist sect came forward to find someone, which meant that this woman was involved in something big. Ye Yunxuan probably sent the person away just for this reason, but he didn't know whether he understood Wan Niang's origin. If he knew the ins and outs of the matter, Zhao Ran was worried that he might kill someone and silence her.
Several people met and discussed it, and felt that this matter must be launched immediately without any further delay.
Ye Yunxuan is said to be from Xuanyuan Temple. Qingcheng Mountain is right next to the capital. He still has a great influence on Jingshou Palace. The master of Jingshou Palace Sutra Hall is Ye Yunxuan. In order to prevent the news from leaking out, the manpower here in the capital cannot be used with confidence for the time being. The task force decided to transfer people from the West Zhenwu Palace of Long'an Prefecture, which is closest to the capital.
Lingyan Nangui Taoist has gone through a lot of trouble this time, running four times in a row to transport eight Fangtang from Zhenwu Palace in the west of Long'an Prefecture for inspection. After the people handling the case were gathered, they were led by Fang Tangtou, a close confidant of the Lu Supervisory Academy, and trapped Ye Yunxuan's housekeeper.
"This housekeeper has lived in a comfortable life for many years. How could he withstand Fangtang's inspection methods? At first, he stiffened his neck and scolded him, but it didn't take long for him to explain everything.
Wan Niang was only sent out of the house on August 17. She took a carriage filled with all the things she had used and was sent to a villa by the Jinjiang River outside the city in the middle of the night. Counting the days, it has been more than ten days.
This villa is named after a silk merchant in the capital. It is apparently the businessman's property, but it is actually a place of enjoyment for Ye Yunxuan.
Since it is not the property under Ye Yunxuan's name, you can feel more at ease during the search. You can just find any excuse. So, the Fangtang inspectors went straight to Bieye outside Jinjiang.
When the results came in, the task force was both surprised and disappointed. Surprisingly, Wan Niang was sent to hide here, and her maid was also in other places. Disappointingly, Wan Niang was not there.
During the interrogation of the maid, a major breakthrough was made in the case. The maid cried and took out a must-have note, which was what Wan Niang left for her. According to the maid, when Wan Niang was transferred to Jinjiang Biye overnight, she quietly told her that she might not die soon, and wrote a letter saying that it was because of her good service over the past year. , leave it to her to save her life. If something happens in the future, if she takes out this last letter, she may be able to save her life.
The maid was illiterate, so she couldn't understand what was written in the last letter. After being seized by Fangtang during the inspection today, she immediately presented the letter and begged the Taoist masters to spare her life. According to her confession, she was originally going to send her away overnight with Wan Niang, but when the owner saw her beauty, he decided to keep her, saying that he planned to take her as his concubine.
The content of the letter actually has nothing to do with the maid. It is a letter of accusation from Wan Niang.
She said that she and her husband Meng Lang received several guests from the capital when they were at Yangshan Academy. One was named Wang, and the other three Taoist priests were named "Chunfeng", "Guanyun" and "Xiaoyao".
When these people came to Yangshan Academy, their husband welcomed him well, but he was innocently slaughtered by him. As a weak woman, she could not resist, so she had to endure the humiliation and compromise, and was later sold to Ye Yunxuan as a concubine by these people. Although he was well-dressed and well-fed this year, his life was actually worse than death. He was humiliated by Ye Yunxuan in various ways every night.
The letter said that if anyone sees this last letter, it means that she has been harmed by Ye Yunxuan, and it begs the person who sees the letter to avenge her.
