Chapter Twenty-Seven: Conspiring Together to Be Giving
Master Zeng rolled his eyes and said with a forced smile: "What did Uncle Han say, this is just that our Yunsi Yamen lost something to catch the thief, and someone saw him running along the banks of the river, so the little one brought someone to chase after him." Licking his lips, "There is no earth-shattering case, otherwise it will be reported to the governor's yamen." ”
These words were polite and cautious, and they also gave Governor Zheng enough face, Fu Nian looked playful, the news he received before was not wrong, and Governor Zheng and Yanyun made Master Su discordant.
Zheng Huahan glanced at this Zeng master, "It turns out that the Yunsi Yamen lost something, it is indeed a headache." Pointing to the humble ancestral house of the Lin family, "Master Zeng has never found anyone here, so how does Master Zeng plan to give me, no, an explanation to Miss Lin?" His chin lifted and pointed at Lin Long.
Master Zeng turned his face to look at Lin Long stupidly, and he didn't know what this little girl had to do with Mrs. Zheng, it was actually Zheng Huahan who personally stood up for her, and it was impossible to apologize, so he raised his head and said, "Girl, I am willing to pay for the soup and medicine." ”
His hand reached into his sleeve and took out two small silver ingots, which looked like ten taels of silver.
As soon as Lin Long saw him taking the money, he would think of Ye Xuyao on that rainy night, he also wanted to send her away like this, and smiled coldly, "Master Zeng is really a big face, are you deceiving our little family who has never seen such a big amount of silver?" Your subordinate officials overthrew my second mother, and almost damaged my reputation, and didn't even apologize, is this like words? ”
When Fu Nian heard this, he suddenly burst out laughing, and everyone else present turned their heads to look at him, not knowing what he was laughing at.
"Brother Fu?" Zheng Huahan called.
Lin Long gritted his teeth and looked at him, of course he knew what he was laughing at.
"It's nothing, it's just that the trick of sending people with money is really familiar." Fu Nian stopped laughing and looked at Master Zeng, whose face was flushed, "If you really want to compensate others, you have to show some sincerity, the people of Yunsi Yamen won't treat the people of Suzhou City like this, right?" ”
These words were a little ridiculous, but Master Zeng's face changed, he could not be afraid of Zheng Huahan, even if the salt luck made Lord Su's official position lower than that of Governor Zheng Daren, but the young man in front of him was different, he was born in a powerful family, and Master Su had explained to him that he must be restrained recently, and he must not let this person catch the braid on the back of his head.
Thinking of this, he suddenly broke out in a cold sweat, and Master Zeng felt that he was reckless.
When the scene was stalemate, there was a commotion outside, and Master Zeng heard that it seemed that the thief appeared and wanted to get out by catching the thief. "Master Fu, Uncle Han, you see, the little one still has official business, so I won't talk to you more......"
"Why rush to leave?" Fu Nian stopped him again, "It's okay to chase after so many yachas, Master Zeng should stay and solve this mess." ”
Master Zeng couldn't help but cry bitterly, so he had to make his eyes look and let the officials around him chase him, and that person must be chased.
The scene calmed down again, and after the yacha went out, not long after the footsteps sounded outside, and a handsome man in a moon-white robe walked in, followed by two young men with stern expressions.
"Ziyang, why were you born so late? The show is almost over. Fu Nian high-fived and smiled, exchanging a mutual knowing look with Ye Xuyao, this time he finally felt at ease.
Zheng Huahan hurriedly went over to greet the ceremony.
Ye Xuyao replied coldly, and naturally found Lin Long in the crowd, this girl is quite clever, but unfortunately she is a daughter, otherwise it is okay to stay by her side and be a staff member. "My mother is about to arrive in Suzhou, so naturally I have to arrange a place for her to live, which is not sloppy. Kaishi, what are you doing here? Glancing at this scene, "I sent someone to look for you at Lord Zheng, but I was told that you came here, but it was easy for me to find you." ”
said a lot of words for the first time, Zheng Huahan was slightly surprised, and then saw that Ye Xuyao had a thin sweat on his face, maybe it was because he was looking for Fu Nian to find a hurry, and after thinking about it, he was no longer surprised.
Fu Nian then teased in a joking tone: "It's just a drama of being an official, it's really good to be an official, the official has two mouths, others can't say it, even if it's just a dog next to the official, the face is also big, isn't it, Master Zeng?" ”
Master Zeng suddenly broke out in a cold sweat, Fu Nian may not be terrible, but this Ye Xuyao is the official who is in charge of investigating the salt case, Master Su has made several posts to invite him, but he has found a reason to push him, and recently I heard that he has been in and out of the governor's yamen, Lord Su is quite a little uncomfortable, and now this bad deed has been caught by him.
Ye Xuyao didn't say a word, but looked at Master Zeng's expression like an iceberg that would not melt for thousands of years, and his tightly pursed lips looked even more stern, which scared Master Zeng almost made a fool of himself in public.
"It turns out that the Yunsi Yamen is doing this errand, and Ye is considered to have learned it." After a while, Ye Xuyao came up with this extremely cold sentence.
"No, it was all an accident." Master Zeng tried his best to argue, but he was bitter in his heart, he couldn't look back on it, turned around and bowed to Lin Long, "Girl, it's all my old eyes that are dizzy, no, I have no eyes, and I am offended, so I apologize to the girl." If the girl has a lot, don't worry about me and others, this is an apology for the girl and her family. ”
He took out two more small silver ingots, which together amounted to about twenty taels.
Aunt Green saw that there was so much silver, and she didn't want to argue with these people anymore, besides, Lin Long hadn't left the cabinet yet, and it was not etiquette to be with so many men, so she paced Lin Long, "Sister Long, let's just leave it." ”
Lin Long glanced back at her, signaling her not to disturb the situation, and then glanced at Ye Xuyao quickly, meaning that she took such a big risk for him, and it was only worth twenty taels of silver? Besides, this is a generous gesture to others.
Ye Xuyao's expression froze, this woman's calculating appearance was really annoying, it seemed that her eyes would glow, just like when she talked to him before.
At that time, the two were still in her humble bedroom, she held the letter he hurriedly wrote to Fu Nian, and then laughed treacherously, "Ye Gongzi, now I not only help you avoid a round of search, but also a second round, this is a tough battle, and I have to help you deliver the letter, even if I return you to testify, this favor is really a big deal, and it is not worth it." ”
He smiled coldly, "What you want is nothing more than silver?" ”
She shook her head, "It's good that you give me silver, but it's just as bad as the golden beans that night." Besides, my family may be remembered by Master Su afterwards, how can I, the daughter of a small people, afford it? Of course, if you come forward to ask for it for me, then he will only hate you. ”
No one had ever been able to make him gnash his teeth, and this woman was the first of its kind.
At that time, he was silent, and she seemed to see through his thoughts, "Since Ye Gongzi doesn't object, then we will make a deal." After a pause, she added: "When the time comes, I will be responsible for attracting their attention, and you will take the opportunity to get out of this window, and I am afraid that I will not have to interfere in the rest of the matter." ”
"Your asking price is not cheap, why should I bother?" He replied coolly.
"It's easy to say, it's easy to say." She actually dared to answer him with a smile, and the next sentence was also unpleasant, "Ye Gongzi, look at the blood stains you made, this has to be cleaned up properly, otherwise it will be troublesome to wear a goof, and there will be a little time, so I have to bother you." ”
She clearly saw that he had a habit of cleanliness and deliberately found him a.
