Chapter 303
"Manager Yin? Yin Sanhuan? He used to be in charge of the Liuhe Bank and Pawnshop, and he had a very good relationship with Niu Peng."
The Beibohou Mansion had handed over all other businesses to the Money Gang, with the exception of the banks and pawnshops, which were firmly in their hands and operated directly.
Yin Sanhuan has always been the manager of these businesses and is deeply trusted by Beibohou.
Xuanwu Street, adjacent to Zhuque Avenue, is the most prosperous street in Jinling.
Its status is equivalent to that of Wangfujing today.
It is no exaggeration to say that those who can open a shop here have the support of princes and ministers behind them.
Even the wealthy and extravagant young men in the capital city all knew one thing: you can act wildly in other parts of the capital, but on this street, you must be restrained.
Otherwise, you might be stabbed in the back by one of the princes or ministers.
Therefore, on this street, let alone people in fancy clothes and fine horses, even those who don’t have a lot of wealth in their family dare not speak loudly.
But today...
The sound of galloping horses broke the decades-long convention here.
'Pah-ta-ta.'
"The Imperial Guards are investigating the case, everyone else please stay out of the way!"
'Wow.'
If the sight of someone galloping on horseback was already incredible to the people on Xuanwu Street, then Wang Qinian's shout really shocked them.
Upon hearing the noise, many shopkeepers and servants guarding the store subconsciously stretched their heads out to see what was going on.
Originally, pedestrians on the street instinctively stood on both sides when faced with the aggressive Jinyiwei.
"Flying Fish Flag? Jinyiwei!"
"Are they all so arrogant now?"
'Hush! '
"Madam, Miss, please be careful with your words!"
"These aren't just ordinary Jinyiwei. They're from the Inspection Department."
"The leader in the crimson python robe is Xu Wuqiwei, a cavalry officer from the Inspection and Pacification Division and Daming County!"
After hearing what the store owner and the servants said, several ladies and young ladies showed disdainful expressions on their faces.
"County boy? At most, he's only a fourth or fifth rank, right?"
"The Supervisory Office oversees all officials. For those below the third rank, Lord Xu has the power to execute first and report later."
"How arrogant was the East Factory before? He was the one who led the massacre."
"Mr. Wei's entire family, young and old, was not spared."
"Marquis Anping is under house arrest, all thanks to him. It is said that the death of the young marquis of the Beibo Marquisate is inextricably linked to him."
"Besides, he once killed someone at Donglin Academy in front of Prime Minister Lin and the Jinwu Guards."
……
When these people who had been hanging around in the capital for many years told Xu Shan about his great achievements one by one, the ladies and young ladies who had just sneered at Xu Shan's status were all horrified.
"So crazy? Is there no one who can cure me?"
"The emperor's grace is immense, the Heavenly Master favors him, and the four great officials are all openly siding with him."
"Plus, despite his young age, he possesses extraordinary strength. An ordinary person would be unable to defeat him."
"However, being too rigid can lead to failure."
"There are many people who want to kill him, both openly and covertly."
While discussing these things, everyone's gaze followed the direction of that hint of crimson and looked into the distance.
"East Street?"
"All the properties there belong to the royal family, princes and ministers."
"What case is he, the Jinyiwei, handling over there?"
The east-west oriented basalt armor has a higher grade the further east it goes.
After seeing Xu Shan and his troops reining in their horses in front of the Yongsheng Pawnshop, many people exclaimed, "Yongsheng Pawnshop?"
"Is that the purse of the Northern Marquis?"
"What kind of case is he investigating there? If it's just about money helping with that little shit, his position as an inspector general won't last."
"Look, someone is already riding a horse towards Beibohou Mansion."
"Today's incident has become a big deal."
"You should know that yesterday, the Marquis of Beibo personally went ten miles outside the city to welcome the Two Xuanming Elders into the city."
"If things go wrong, even if Qinglong comes this time, it may not end well."
Beibohou Mansion...
Xu Ji, who had organized the censors and imperial officials to build momentum in the capital because the soldiers of the North City Camp were killed or captured, had just finished arranging everything when he heard the hurried footsteps of the butler.
"My Lord, this is bad."
"News just came from Xuanwu Street. Xu Shan and his men have surrounded the Yongsheng Pawnshop."
