Chapter 340: Meet Again
"All the big crimes are in the city, in order to see those people being executed, they specially bought a piece of land to build a high-rise building, Sister Su Su really hated it to the bones."
Although Lin Yu was suspicious, after all, it was only the tenth princess who casually mentioned it, and he and the secret agent only met once by chance, if the other party had a disguise, he might not be able to recognize him even if he met him head-on.
So she quickly moved her mind to other things, everything in the restaurant was normal, and she didn't need to care much. Of course, the next thing will be dealt with in order, because Yin Susu has specially advised, and from the distance, it is also the closest to the vegetable market, so Lin Yu's first stop was there.
"There are so many people that it's very lively, and there is no sign that there will be executions." Lin Yu got out of the carriage and sighed when he looked at the lively crowd.
"This is what the young lady doesn't know, except for special circumstances, the annual executions are always after the autumn, and they are all centralized executions, so it is just a few executions of prisoners in a year." Pearl is not like Lin Yu is an outsider, he knows more about the way, but when Lin Yu is pampered in the deep boudoir, he doesn't know these things, and he explains them to Lin Yu in detail. "So, basically, it won't affect the business of this area."
Lin Yu nodded, the rule at this time is that all major crimes are in the city, one is to deter lawbreakers, and the other is to let the people distinguish between loyal and traitorous people. However, the law of this dynasty is quite lenient, and it does not like to use heavy punishments, and the ancient folk customs are simple after all, and the population is much smaller after all. Except for those Jianghu people who lick blood and politicians who fight openly and secretly, ordinary people live a very dull life. At most, I've seen some thieves and second-rate people or something.
Lin Yu remembered that Yin Susu mentioned that it seemed that more than 2,000 people were executed in the whole Great Zhou last year, but that was the number of people executed in the whole Great Zhou. In the case of the capital, there are probably more than 100 people, and it is true that it can be solved by a few centralized executions. Of course, this was last year, and given the high probability of a war, there would not have been such a quiet situation in the future.
"Miss, I have seen a prisoner executed once. Probably right there in that place. Pearl pointed to a place and said to Lin Yu, Lin Yu followed her finger and looked over, but sighed softly.
"Miss. What do you sigh for? Pearl was a little puzzled.
Lin Yu couldn't say that he thought that once the war started, no matter who won or lost the most, many people would lose their heads, so he felt a little emotion in his heart, so he asked. "Look at the executions. Aren't you afraid? ”
"How can you be afraid?" Pearl smiled, "There are a lot of people watching around, but I can't actually see it, and besides, they are all people who should be killed, and they are also for the people." ”
Lin Yu nodded and didn't speak again, at this time, Yin Susu's steward had already learned the news and greeted him. "I've seen Miss Yu."
It was a chubby, small-eyed middle-aged man wearing a dark blue robe. looked at Lin Yu with a little restraint. Because this matter is not a big project, and it is just a small steward to send it, but I have met Lin Yu once, and they are not familiar with each other. Engaging in engineering has been a good way to make a fortune since ancient times, and this little steward is no exception, and the steward probably thought that Lin Yu was here to inspect him, so he was restrained.
Lin Yu knows Yin Susu's way of being the emperor, the water is clear and there are no fish, as long as it is not particularly excessive, the normal unspoken rules are all available to his subordinates, and he doesn't plan to put pressure on this steward, "I came here this time, it was Mrs. Yin who asked me to come to see the exact location, and I will take a copy of the drawings if there is a backup." ”
Seeing that he didn't come to check on him, the steward showed a smile on his face, asked someone to get the drawings, followed Lin Yu to introduce the land, and then flattered him diligently. Lin Yu saw that although he was in this manner, the location was good, so he didn't care.
I came here today just to see the location and the surrounding situation, it was not a very troublesome thing, and when someone brought the drawings, Lin Yu left. She still has a lot of things to do, she has to go to the old house, and she has to see her new house under construction, and choose some materials and decoration styles.
For a while, Lin Yu got into the carriage, and watching the carriage go away, the fat steward breathed a sigh of relief, and let out a long breath from his small mouth.
"When I finally left, I thought it was Madame who wanted to get up and check it out, and scared me to death. Although we are not greedy, and we take a commission from the seller according to the rules, it is better not to be poked out. ”
At the same time, not far away, someone also sighed softly, "Finally gone, how did she come here?" That Lin Yu is not a young lady, nor is he a very small jasper, although the vegetable market is lively, but the flow of people is complicated, and most of the people who come are poor, and rich people don't come here much. ”
The high-end prosperity of the capital is mostly concentrated in the area of Xishi, not here, and there are many poor people here to buy and sell, and those nobles and rich people are reluctant to come here. Therefore, Zhang Bailong chose to live here temporarily, a person with a large population is highly mobile and difficult to find, and secondly, because there are almost no people with identities here who often haunt, and the possibility of his identity being exposed is particularly low.
Who knew that after Lu Dao accidentally met Lin Yu once before, he met Lin Yu again next, if it wasn't for his quick reaction, Zhang Bailong's master and servant almost went face to face with Lin Yu this time. Even Zhang Bailong's personality couldn't help but secretly feel a little frightened, and he felt as if he was in conflict with Lin Yu today.
"Childe, you are still too willful, the capital is not an ordinary place, although you may have something to do with those people if you bump into a few." Xiaoba is even more bitterly persuasive. "While you haven't been discovered, Childe, you better go back quickly, the family also needs you to be in charge."
"I also feel a little reckless, but since I'm here, I still have to take the opportunity to observe the situation of these people and the court in the capital before going back." Zhang Bailong sighed softly, "Just based on the information transmitted, I haven't been to the capital once, I still don't think it's safe." Knowing oneself and knowing that the other side can win all battles, now our situation is even more unfavorable, and if the other party's details are not clear, it is even more difficult to win. ”
Xiao Bazhi said that Zhang Bailong was right, in recent years, except for a few special circumstances of the family, in the central power circle, the power of other families is suppressed, and the Zhang family and the Chen family are also among them. Now that the secret is leaked, it is very passive, it is already such a situation, and even the main person has not really seen the situation in the capital, how can there be a chance of winning.
"Anyway, Childe still has to be more careful, besides, it's too dangerous to have only the two of us here, once something happens, there is no one to cover Childe's departure."
Zhang Bailong nodded, "Let's go over to find Zhang Er and them right away, and I also have some things to do with them." ”
Xiaoba breathed a sigh of relief, and finally said that he had moved his son-in-law. However, he still didn't expect that Zhang Bailong would start to be furious not long after seeing Zhang Ergongzi! (To be continued......)
