Chapter 150 Phoenix Man
The two of them went straight up to the fifth floor. Di Cang pushed open the door of a room and said, "The information I have collected from various companies is all here. Which company do you want to know about?"
"The Tang family." Yuan Man found a seat by the window and sat down.
Di Cang paused for a moment and took out the information about the Tang family. "Master, the affairs of the Tang family are a little complicated. I don't remember them clearly in the booklet. I will tell you slowly."
Yuanman nodded, but still took the booklet and started reading.
Di Cang glanced at it and said, "The story of the Tang family started three years ago. Tang Zhili suddenly brought back a stranger three years ago. Although the stranger left soon, Tang Zhili's health began to deteriorate from then on, and he died in February this year."
"The complicated thing about the Tang family is that they used to be very united, but now they are like a pile of loose sand. It's like the Tang family is being controlled by someone."
"I only found out from the Tang family that it seems to be related to people from Yun Country, and it also seems to be related to people from Song Country."
Yuan Man frowned, "Why are we talking about Yun and Song again?"
Di Cang shook his head. "I don't know. The rest of the Tang family doesn't know much, and the people in the Tang family who know about it are not likely to be easily tricked into giving away information."
"Okay, I got it." There wasn't much information he wanted.
Di Cang suddenly walked up to her and knelt down, "Master..."
"What are you doing?" Yuan Man frowned and looked at him.
Di Cang looked up at her and said, "Last winter, one of my subordinates was careless and someone took away some information about Xunxian Tower from me."
"Who?" Yuan Man's face turned cold.
Di Cang and his men were all rewarded by the system. Needless to say, their loyalty and strength were both top-notch. The other party who could extract information from him must be no simple person.
"He said his name was Lin Chi, and I guess it was a fake name." Di Cang thought for a moment and said, "When I was tracking him down, I traced him to the Tang family."
"This person has had dealings with the Tang family, but no information about him has been found. However, he has a large scar on his wrist, which is the only identifiable part I know of."
Yuan Man thought about it and felt that the name Lin Chi sounded familiar.
The forest owl, a mediocre little genius of camouflage, belongs to the order Victuals and is a relative of owls.
It should be a pseudonym, or it may be a code name.
"I will arrange for someone to investigate this matter. You should be more careful in the future and don't leak my information."
Di Cang shook his head. "At that time, I didn't know your identity, so I naturally wouldn't reveal it. From now on, I will be extremely careful and practice the art of counter-detection."
If someone gets the news, he might as well not live anymore.
Yuan Man nodded, pointed at the booklet and said, "Tang family, other than this, is there any other information?"
Di Cang thought for a moment and said, "It seems that the Tang family lost something. The eldest brother of the Tang family, Tang Lin'an, went out to look for it and has not returned yet."
"I know all this." Yuan Man compared the information he had obtained with him.
After hearing this, Di Cang said, "I have never heard that Tang Nuoxi is not the biological son of the Tang family, but I know something about Madam Tang's cousin Du Yuexi."
"Oh, tell me about it." Yuanman picked up the tea.
Di Cang said, "The man Du Yuexi married is called Jin Shengyuan. He went to Kyoto to take the imperial examination nineteen years ago and never came back."
"At that time, Du Yuexi was already five months pregnant. Since Jin Shengyuan's family was a farmer's, they were naturally not very wealthy, so Du Yuexi returned to her parents' home."
"However, when she was about to give birth, the Du family was suddenly wiped out. At that time, everyone was speculating who the Du family had offended."
"I have learned from some people that Jin Shengyuan was greedy and vain and wanted to marry the princess, so he killed his wife's family."
"Has anyone seen Jin Shengyuan in Kyoto?" Yuan Man thought of Lord Jingning first.
What’s even funnier is that the person he has been deceiving and plotting against is his own son.
I wonder how Tang Nuoxi will react when he finds out.
Di Cang nodded, "Yes, after all, there are many students in Beizhou, and at that time, Du Yuexi's marriage to Jin Shengyuan as a rich lady caused a sensation, so naturally many people knew him."
"There are many people who scold him because he was able to take the imperial examination thanks to the support of the Du family. Otherwise, with the strength of his family, it would be difficult for him to even enter a school, let alone take the imperial examination."
After hearing this, Yuan Man also wanted to scold Jin Shengyuan, calling him a Phoenix man, a completely shameless Phoenix man.
Next, Di Cang showed her the account book. Yuan Man still refused to look at it. There were so many things. She wondered when she would go to see them all.
When he left, he took away four million taels from Xunxian Tower.
Yuan Man returned to Le Xiang Shan and Hui Cheng Yuan had already returned. "You are back. Wash up and you can have dinner."
Yuan Man went into the room to wash up and asked, "Ah Xiao, is Lord Jingning called Jin Shengyuan?"
Hye Seung Won nodded, “Yes, what’s wrong?”
Yuan Man thought for a moment and said, "I just went to Xunxian Tower and learned some things about him."
"Before Jin Shengyuan went to Kyoto to take the imperial examination nineteen years ago, he married a woman from the Du family in Beizhou, and they had a son."
"Before he married the princess, the Du family was suddenly wiped out, and Du Yuexi entrusted his newborn son to Madam Tang."
Hui Chengyuan frowned immediately. In order to marry the princess, he wiped out his wife's entire family.
"Do you plan to tell your father or aunt about this?" Yuan Man asked.
In ancient times, many royal families would treat such things lightly for the sake of their own reputation, or even pretend that they never happened.
Hui Chengyuan nodded, "Of course I will tell you."
"In fact, over the years, Auntie has learned a little about his character, but I'm not sure how much she knows."
"I will send a message back to my father. As for how to deal with it, it's up to my father's aunt."
"If you want to punish him, you need to provide witnesses to make him confess. After all, he is now the Duke of Jingning and the consort of the Grand Princess."
Yuan Man nodded, "You have met Tang Nuoxi, do you think he looks like Jin Shengyuan?"
Hui Chengyuan shook his head, "Only 30% like him. He should be more like Du Yuexi."
"In fact, it would be best if Mrs. Tang is willing, because she knows the most."
Yuan Man nodded again, "Based on what she said to Tang Nuoxi, she hates Jin Shengyuan."
"You tell me, should I go visit her? As the Crown Princess."
"Perhaps, we can learn a lot of things we want to know from her."
Hui Chengyuan thought for a moment and said, "That's feasible. I also want to know what Tang Nuoxi asked her for."
Yuan Man nodded, and told him again what Di Cang had told her, that those officials had gone to Xunxian Tower before they came.
Hui Chengyuan looked at her, smiled and said, "I already know, Ling Feng has already found out."
Yuan Man knew what he was thinking, so she ignored it and asked Bai Zhong to deliver the invitation to Mrs. Tang.
The reply came quickly.
So Yuanman asked Yuanyi to call Yuaner back.
Yuan Er also brought back some useful news. After Tang Nuoxi left today, he sneaked into Tang Nuoxi's study and found many letters about his transactions with Jin Shengyuan, as well as evidence that Tang Nuoxi was collecting intelligence about the An Kingdom for the Yun people.
Yuanman and Hui Chengyuan looked at each other and decided to go to the Tang family.
