Chapter XXVIII
The man still said with a calm face: "Elder Ye Lan only said a few words in anger at that time, but then Elder Ye Lan's attitude of admitting his mistake was also very good, according to Elder Ye Lan, the iron-clothed Lord did not mean to blame. ”
"That's good, so it won't be able to touch my Ye family. Ye Yuze was fascinated by the flowers, it was hard to imagine that a warrior like Ye Yuze would like flowers, but in the next second, the flower in Ye Yuze's hand was crushed, and the snow remaining on the plum blossom branch fell together, but Ye Yuze's mouth muttered: "No, conflict, wounds, long swords, motives ......"
I saw Ye Yuze's mouth keep saying some words, but in the end, he stood up straight with a bang, and almost slipped to the ground, and then Ye Yuze said to the villain in a panic: "You, you go and call Ye Lan to see me." ”
The next person was naturally startled when he saw Ye Yuze like this, obviously he hadn't understood what was going on, but looking at Ye Yuze's face, he knew that this matter was not trivial. As soon as the next person was about to run, he saw someone running over and shouting, "Home, my lord, Elder Ye Lan has been taken away......
"It's broken!" Ye Yuze couldn't help but curse secretly, but he had no room to maneuver at this point, so he said: "Go to the stable and take out my horse, quickly!"
Yu Yongyan was walking by the fish pond with Jiang Fuqing at this time, Jiang Fuqing looked drunk and made people think he was drunk, but only Jiang Fuqing knew that he was more sober than ever before. But Jiang Fuqing is like a drunkard in Yu Yongyan's eyes, but Yu Yongyan is not a reckless man, he can sit in this position today, relying on his own brain.
Jiang Fuqing pointed to the fish pond and said with great interest: "Look, it's that fish pond! Back then, my daughter tricked Jiu Wentian into coming here, saying that she was looking for something, but she killed all the fish I bought, which made me feel distressed for a while. ”
"Haha," Yu Yongyan said with a kind and happy smile: "Miss Jiang is really lively and cute, but that Jiu Wentian has now become the concubine of Dragon City, won't the daughter be unhappy?"
Jiang Fuqing was stunned for a moment, but this stunned was as inconspicuous as a drunkard's wine burp, and then Jiang Fuqing said: "Whatever, the woman is not in the middle, she can do whatever she wants." ”
Yu Yongyan nodded and said, "Also, it seems that the Jiang City Lord has his own ideas about education." By the way, I haven't seen Mrs. Jiang when I came out here, so let's go together. ”
"Ah......" City Lord Jiang nodded, and said with a trace of loss that others could not detect: "I buried her in the Forest of Peace, and it is quiet there, so I will find someone to prepare a carriage." ”
"Then it's going to trouble City Lord Jiang. Yu Yongyan said.
In Yu Yongyan's mind, Jiang Fuqing is not a drunkard who likes to drink, but a warrior who commands the most prosperous area of Mingzhou with a sword, and that shock alone is enough to amaze Mingzhou. There are many talents in the city, but all of them are willing to worship Jiang Fuqing, which shows how powerful this person is.
After He Ze's death ten years ago, Jiang Fuqing collapsed, no, it should be pretending to be decadent. Jiang Fuqing is not a fool, let alone a person who can abandon the old city for the sake of the woman he loves, he must have his reasons for doing this.
But these are just Yu Yongyan's conjectures, he is a member of the government department, and he came here to find out the officials who have no work style. Jiang Fuqing, as the lord of the old city, naturally had to start an investigation, in recent years, the expenses of the old city have indeed been large, and the property handed over to the state has shrunk by nearly half compared with ten years, and such a large amount of money will be very terrible if it is used for armament.
Moreover, the ancient city is the most prosperous area in Mingzhou, and since the disappearance of Shenzhou, the ancient city has served as a task to connect other states, and the tariffs alone are enough for the people of Mingzhou to eat for half a year. However, now Jiang Fuqing seems to have no intention of operating, and the governor has long wanted to find a reason to change the city lord, but Jiang Fuqing has done too much to do before.
It is not for nothing that the master of the merit is high, and now that an iron coat has died in the old city, this is also an opportunity. Not only did he give the governor an excuse to get rid of Jiang Fuqing, but he was also able to send someone from the government office to investigate here, even if he didn't touch Jiang Fuqing, he could also know a rough idea.
Yu Yongyan got into the carriage to the Forest of Peace, and Jiang Fuqing was already snoring in the carriage at this time.
Mr. Cao was accompanying Yu Xian to drink tea in the hall and discuss Fengyue, when a subordinate came over with a plate, on which were two tokens, and the word "so" was written on the token. But this token is golden, different from the "black order" ten years ago.
The subordinate let Chief Manager Cao look at the plate, and then said, "Chief Manager Cao, this is the token you transferred from the warehouse. ”
"Someone just said that there is news of Xiao Lebang and Jiu Wentian in the Ye family, so you can send it. Chief Manager Cao sat on the chair and said slowly: "This is the token of my old city, and with this token is equivalent to the city lord coming in person." ”
Yu Xian took a sip of tea and said with satisfaction: "This method of Jiang City Lord is indeed unique, and it must have been handed down by his predecessors. The old city is really an admirable place, and this tea alone is enough to make people forget to leave. ”
Manager Cao smiled softly and said: "Lord Yu said that he was joking, the old city is just guarding the area of the Hundred Beast Forest, everyone in the world knows that wild beasts are rampant in the Hundred Beast Forest, but insiders know that the fragrance of tea in the Hundred Beast Forest is overflowing." ”
Chief Cao didn't lie, there were two major forests in the city, one was the Forest of Peace in the Plains, and the other was the Forest of Beasts in the mountain range. The ancient city is also blessed, the mountains in the forest of beasts are some very good tea, Jiu Wentian feels that although this tea can not be said to be top-notch, it can also be regarded as the best. After all, Jiu Wentian in the previous life was also fortunate to drink tea such as Maojian.
Yu Xian's appearance of a mouse is very enjoyable, if it is said that it is born from the heart, then Yu Xian will definitely be spurned by the world. As the old saying goes, everyone shouts and beats rats across the street, but this society is not face-looking, and Yu Xian's ability must be recognized to sit in this position.
The first-rank official of the Department of Justice is not a dry eater, so I saw Yu Xian say slowly: "What Chief Manager Cao said is that I was born in Fengcheng, where there are many women, and where men seem to have no status. And because there is very little tea there, it is even more difficult for a man to take a sip of tea than to ascend to the sky. Today, thanks to Mr. Cao, I can drink such good tea. ”
"Lord Yu is serious," Manager Cao smiled a little humbly: "If Lord Yu doesn't dislike it, come to the old city to find the lower official when he has time, and the lower official will definitely let Lord Yu have a good time." ”
Yu Xian nodded, as if he was also pleased with Manager Cao's recognition of him, Yu Xian put down the bowl in his hand and said, "Then thank Manager Cao first, now that I have drunk the tea, can you let me take a look at the laws and regulations of the old city?"
Mr. Cao took a sip of tea, and there was a hint of sharpness in his eyes, but he quickly smiled and said, "That's nature, that's nature, let's go Lord Yu." The study room here can also be borrowed by everyone. ”
"Very well, the French language is such a sacred thing, of course, not to be deceived. Master Yu got up and said.
Jiu Wentian's face was speechless, because Ye Lan in front of him actually threw the pot on his body. The current Ye Lan can be said to be angry, because Xiao Lebang has explained a lot of his reasoning, and to the point of being impeccable, the murderer has already locked on Ye Lan.
When Xiao Lebang stated his reasoning, Jiu Wentian also knew what kind of character Xiao Lebang was, this was originally a very far-fetched reasoning, but when it came to Xiao Lebang's mouth, it became a matter of course, and Ye Lan was red and red-necked, so he almost raised his sword to fight with Xiao Lebang.
Ye Lan stood in front of the gate of the Ye Mansion, and behind him were all the people of the Ye family, including the elders and elders of the Ye family, so Ye Lan also shouted angrily: "You don't want to frame me! At that time, this Jiu Wentian also had a conflict with Tie Yi, why didn't you say that he was the murderer?!"
Xiao Lebang was not in a hurry like Ye Lan, but said unhurriedly: "Lord Ye, everything you say is about evidence. You don't know about his congenital closure of muscles and veins for a long time, and he has never practiced martial arts, and his physical fitness is even worse. If you say that Jiu Wentian killed Lord Tieyi, then you are saying that Tieyi can't even beat a child without force? Are you underestimating Mingzhou's Tieyi?"
Jiu Wentian couldn't help but sigh, originally Ye Lan was angry and suspicious, but after Xiao Lebang's mouth, things suddenly became bigger. Ye Lan, who said it, also hurriedly denied it: "I haven't said anything bad about Lord Tieyi, don't sow discord here." ”
"In other words, you don't believe that Jiu Wentian will be a murderer, do you?" The smile on Xiao Lebang's face made people shudder, as if this man was a demon and smiled at you.
Ye Lan stopped talking, and an elder beside him opened his mouth to defend Ye Lan: "Lord Xiao, my Ye family has always had no grievances with you, and I am also dear to the people. So I still persuade Lord Xiao not to cut off his own back road, while the head of my Ye family has not yet arrived, you should leave quickly, and my Ye family will not pursue you anything. ”
Jiang Qiufang pulled the corner of Jiu Wentian's clothes and said softly, "I think Elder Ye is innocent, or let's investigate again." ”
Jiu Wentian understood Jiang Qiufang's intentions when he was pulled to the corner of his clothes, but now this kind of thing seems to have no room for maneuver, once Xiao Lebang relaxes, that means that he is indeed framing Ye Lan, so that none of the three of them can escape from it, and the braid will be pinched in the hands of the Ye family, and it will be even more intelligible when it comes to Jiang Fuqing.
