Chapter 154: Asking for Face

After reading the letter from Meng Jun, Yu Shi quickly replied to the letter, and instructed Lin Chong to send it quickly. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info

Lin Chong didn't dare to disobey, so he ran to the post station to send a letter before he even had lunch.

When he came back, Yushi had already run out of lunch, and it was the gecko's own cooking skills, which were full of color, flavor, and taste.

Yu Shi asked the gecko to leave some food for Lin Chong, and as soon as Lin Chong came back, he had lunch first, and when he was finished, he asked Yu Shi to go out again:

"Go and investigate, what Cao Yun has been doing recently, you have to be detailed, time, place, things, everything that is related to me clearly, and then come back to report to me, you can go back to the yamen to find help, but be sure not to let the prince's mansion, Cao Yun or others notice."

Just listening to it, Lin Chong felt that the task was arduous.

That's the prince's mansion, it's the first staff member around the prince, and it's very resourceful......

Lin Chong had just finished three, and then he heard Yu Shi's confession, and then smashed it again:

"First probe Cao Yun's whereabouts and report to me, and then carefully check all his movements in the past half a month, and also, call Hong Lie over."

After Yu Shi finished speaking, he raised his eyes, and saw Lin Chong's appearance that was difficult to disappear and full of distress, and couldn't help but ask:

"Lin Chong, have you been in trouble lately?"

Lin Chong was stunned and shook his head subconsciously.

No?

It's good if you don't have it

With another wave of his hand, Yu Shi signaled that Lin Chong could step back and do something.

After Lin rushed away, Yu Shi moved to the rattan recliner under the courtyard corridor and lay down, where he swayed leisurely, thinking about things in his head.

The gecko quickly brought a low table, a red clay stove, a complete set of tea sets and special tools for tea grinding and roasting, and a low stool to sit on the side of the jade chaise longue, and then began to grind tea and roast tea, and then brewed the tea soup with a clear and fragrant taste.

After handing a cup to Yushi, she also picked up a cup herself and sipped it slowly.

Yu Shi knocked on the armrest of the recliner, and the bent finger phalanges collided with the armrest with a crisp sound:

"Xiaobi, do you know Chu Jing?"

Xiaobi put down the cup and nodded.

Zhang Dongsheng is her landlord, and the landlord has been living in Beijing for a long time, and the general base of Heimu Building is also in Beijing.

Not to mention her, the other members of the Black Wood Building also knew Chu Jing.

Hearing the gecko nod and say yes, Yu Shiluo sat up suddenly, but fortunately, the gecko was not surprised enough to be frightened.

"Zhang Dongsheng, that is, your landlord, does he know everything about Beijing very well?" Jade picked up the gecko solemnly.

The gecko wasn't scared just now, she was scared, and she suddenly had a bad premonition:

"Big, Adult......"

"You must know a lot, right?" Yu Shi snatched the words, put the cup on the low table, there was still half a cup of tea soup rippling and rippling, she smiled: "Xiaobi, tell me?" ”

The gecko looked at Yushi, who was smiling like a flower, and she knew what that bad premonition was.

Yu Shi wanted her to put the things that the landlord knew from her mouth.

It's not accurate.

Yushi's attitude and this way are completely taking the tender route.

What's worse is that she really can't bear to refuse!

Coughing lightly twice, Gecko thought and thought, but he really didn't know where to start, so he simply asked Yushi:

"What do you want to hear?"

When Yu Shi saw that there was a door, he hurriedly hit the snake with the stick:

"I ask you?"

The gecko nodded uncontrollably.

"I want to know the current situation, who in Beijing is most likely to be related to the Tongqian Zhixian case?" Yu Shi immediately asked what he wanted to know the most.

The gecko was stumped: "This ......"

Yu Shi asked: "Zhang Dongsheng didn't say it?" ”

"Before the landlord sent me north to Nan Lifu, he said something, but it has nothing to do with Beijing, only roughly talked about the ...... Nan Li Fu and Zhusha County."

"Then let's talk about Nam Loei and Zhusha County!" Yu Shi made a quick decision.

Gecko nodded, took a deep breath, sorted out some of the things he had heard from Zhang Dongsheng in his mind, and then began to say:

"Although Zhusha County does not have our stronghold of Heimulou, there is one in Nanli Province, and the two places are very close, so when the Tongqian Zhixian case occurred, we received the news ......"

Unlike Zhusha County, who was eager to solve the case at the beginning, Heimulou received the spider token the next day after receiving the news.

Yu Shi asked: "Do you know about Zhang Zhixian and Meng Zhifu?" ”

Gecko said: "I know, Meng Zhifu accidentally rescued Miss Zhang, the eldest daughter of Zhang Zhixian, the landlord received the news as soon as possible, Zhang Zhixian and the landlord have always been like father and son, so for the matter of Zhang Zhixian, we are very concerned about the people of Hessian Building, especially the stronghold of Qing'an County, and the leader there Spider was severely trained by the landlord!" ”

For this reason, the spider languished for a long time.

Later, he was sent by Zhang Dongsheng to Jiangnan on a mission, and the gecko has not seen spiders since.

Hearing that the spider was on a mission in Jiangnan again, Yu Shi wanted to know what the task was, but she felt that the gecko probably wouldn't answer, or that the gecko shouldn't be very clear, so she still had to ask Zhang Dongsheng to get the answer.

"When Zhang Dongsheng heard that Miss Zhang was almost killed to save her name, apart from being angry, what else did he say at that time?" Yu Shi thinks that this question, maybe the gecko can answer her.

Gecko remembers that in the Zhang family's mansion at that time, she and the spider were called into the outer study, and the spider was called in for training, but she still hasn't figured out what she was called in.

However, at that time, Zhang Dongsheng was so angry that he almost gritted his teeth and stomped his feet, and the words that almost roared, the gecko remembered it clearly:

"The landlord said that they are going to kill themselves, the big ones are not greedy, and the small ones are even more greedy......"

Desperate?

Big and small greed is insufficient?

Yu Shi groaned and said for a while:

"Zhang Dongsheng didn't say it explicitly?"

Gecko shook his head: "No, the landlord will say a sentence and break a sentence, and they are all angry and angry...... The landlord values Zhang Zhixian very much, and those people should not be calculated on Zhang Zhixian's head. ”

Gecko always felt that Zhang Dongsheng's arrangements later had a deep meaning, but that deep meaning was unpredictable.

At least she didn't see a point.

Yu Shi motioned for the gecko to re-grind the tea powder, make a new cup of tea, and pull the gecko back from Zhang Dongsheng's angry look at that time.

The gecko began to knock down a small piece of tea cake, then grinded the tea, roasted the tea, and then lifted the silver kettle and soaked it in hot water.

Yu Shi was already lying back in the recliner, she was lying on her back, and she didn't have to look up to see the blue sky and white clouds.

It's going to be the middle of the day, and it's a little bit off, and it's still hot.

Fortunately, Lin Chong built a ceiling in the courtyard where she lived, pasted white yarn, and there was an ice room in the courtyard of the house, and the ice basins have not been missing since they opened their eyes.

Being able to see the sky and the white clouds, but not being too hot and suffering from heat stroke, she suddenly felt that although she was not a princess in this life, her life had not been bad since she was reborn.

Of course, it can't be counted when you're injured.

Her father loves her and loves her, her sister respects her and respects her, protects her from the peak, and her subordinates are obedient, except for Yang Ke, a traitor, she has a smooth journey in Jinyi Wei Yamen, there are no big winds and waves, and there are only small twists and turns, which are not worth mentioning.

Although the cousin of the Meng family is smart, he has little knowledge and is not decisive enough in some things, just like in the matter of presenting the evidence about Wang Zhongtong to Luo Gong, he is too cautious and not careful.

She could tell Luo Gong what he said to her, why couldn't he figure out how reassuring she was with Luo Gong?

I also have to write to ask questions, which is a waste of time and easy to miss the opportunity.

Yu Shihan sat up, took the newly brewed tea from the gecko, and looked at the tea soup reflected in his own eyes:

"The most important thing now is to find out whether the case has anything to do with the three masters, as long as the case has nothing to do with the three masters, then I ...... No, we can let go of our hands and do a big job! ”

Gecko listened to it and understood, but she thought of the assassination case of the attached horse master who shocked Jingzhong last time:

"Isn't the case of attaching Ma Ye also handled it well?"

The gecko thought about the words, but after two circles in his heart, as soon as the words came out, he still felt that it was most suitable for her to ask directly.

Yu Shi glanced at the gecko: "If it is really handled properly, this copper coin county case will not fall on the head of our Jinyi Wei so quickly." ”

Although in the end, there was no escape, and the case still had to be shouldered, but it should have been different at the time.

At least the case has taken a turn, the process is different, the nature is different, and the forces of all parties are not the same.

The gecko didn't understand: "Listen to the meaning of the adult, it will still be thoroughly investigated by Jinyiwei in the end, so what is the difference between this early inspection and the evening inspection?" ”

"This ......" Yu Shi didn't want to explain it too clearly, so he thought about it and came up with an analogy: "It's like a white and fat pig, it will be slaughtered eventually, but when the piglets are slaughtered, or when they are raised to be hundreds of pounds old, do you think it will be the same?" ”

That's certainly not the same.

But the gecko still couldn't learn anything specific from the analogy of Yushi.

She didn't ask any more, only took the empty cup and filled it up.

Then hand it over, and wait for Yu Shi to take it, Gecko Fang:

"The lord ordered Captain Lin to investigate Cao Yun, just to start with the prince first, and the person you want most is the prince, right?"

Yu Shi pursed her lips and smiled, put down the cup full of tea and soup, and put it back on the table without half a drink, she lay down again, looking at Tiandao:

"The future prince, I always don't want to offend the person who will be him."

Last time, because of Zhu Rong, she and Luo Gong had already angered the emperor, and they also planted the fire of the dragon's displeasure.

She didn't want this spark to have a chance to sprout, and the beginning of germination began with the crown prince Zhu Xiao.

Although the other two little lords can also sprout from the fire, in the final analysis, the second prince and the third prince are not the crown prince set up by the emperor himself, and they are not the princes regarded by the emperor as the future king, and the weight is always lighter than the prince.

would rather offend the second prince and the third prince than offend the prince Zhu Xiao, this is the consensus between her and Luo Gong.

So last time, about the two account books in the hands of Ma Ye, I finally gave the prince a favor through Luo Gong's hand.

Luo Gong told her that the prince said to him personally that he would pay it back.

This sentence will be returned, which will undoubtedly give Jinyiwei an extra layer of umbrella in the future.

At the beginning of the solstice, Hong Lie arrived at the Sanjin Mansion where Yushi temporarily lived.

After seeing the ceremony, Yu Shi introduced Hong Lie and Gecko to each other, and said that Gecko would follow her during this time, so that Hong Lie did not have to avoid geckos when talking and doing things, just take Gecko as his own.

Although Hong Lie was confused in his heart, but Yu Shi's words, like Lin Chong and Liancheng, he had always obeyed without objection.

The gecko heard Yu Shi say that she was her own person again, so that Lin Chong and Hong Lie did not have to avoid her words and deeds, which made her heart warm slightly, and she was also more determined to do things for Yu Shi during this time.

As soon as Lin Chong got out of Yushi, he went directly to Hong Lie, and as soon as he told Yushi what he meant, Hong Lie followed Lin Chong to find out Cao Yun's whereabouts first, and then found it according to what Lin Chong said.

Hong Lie politely took the tea that the gecko made for him, and after taking a big sip and almost bottoming out, he put down the teacup and said:

"My lord, then Cao Yun and Lin Chong found out, this time he is following the Yao family warehouse to see new things, just at the Hanjin Wharf!"

The Yao family?

Hearing these two words, Yu Shi suddenly sat up from the recliner, stared at Hong Lie and asked:

"Cao Yun is in the Yao family's warehouse? With whom? ”

Whether the Yao family is Yushi's maternal grandfather's family, or the maternal grandfather's family that has not been in contact for eight hundred years, Hong Lie knows it:

"Uncle Yao!"

"Yao Zenghao?" Yu Shi was a little stunned, how could it be her eldest uncle?

Hong Lie nodded: "Yes!" It's Yao Zenghao! I don't know any more, but I've sent someone to investigate, is it here to hear the news, or is it a visit in person? ”

Yu Shi didn't reply to Hong Lie's question, she was thinking about how Cao Yun could directly hook up with Yao Zenghao.

Even if the three major merchants of Yao, Mo, and Jing in Beijing have been secretly recruited by the prince and become the money bags for the prince's mansion to spend all kinds of money, but this is only in the dark, why did Cao Yun, as the prince's first staff, actually meet with Yao Zenghao directly to talk about things?

Isn't Cao Yun afraid of the villain behind him and stabbing this kind of thing with the people to the Yushitai?

Even if Cao Yun is not afraid, the prince is not a mediocre person, how could he allow Cao Yun to act so blatantly?

No!

Cao Yun must have acted like this with the consent of the prince, and even this is Cao Yun's strategy at all, there must be some purpose in it!

"The emperor hates the prince and the people for profit the most, not to mention this kind of profit with the people who are put on the surface!" Yu Shi knocked on the armrest of the recliner twice, got up and turned around twice, turned around suddenly, and said to Hong Lie: "I won't go, my face is too eye-catching, you can go and investigate it yourself!" ”

Hong Lie should be, and soon withdrew from the courtyard of Yushi, and went straight to the Hanjin Wharf out of the house.

Yu Shi didn't sit back in the chaise longe, but walked back and forth under the verandah and in the courtyard, looking pensive.

Gecko knows that it is related to Yushi's maternal grandfather's family, and this Tongqian Zhixian case involves Yushi's aunt Yao Meiling, which will make Yushi so annoying and deep, it is really normal.

After turning around a few times, Yu Shi walked back to the chaise longue and sat down, saying:

"Xiaobi, you immediately go to the Zhenshui Pavilion on Weeping Willow Street, and help me bring a message to the Qingqi girl Xiang Zhai in the pavilion, just say I want a face!" (To be continued.) )
