Although this conversation came suddenly, it did not lose time. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 info Qiu Yinming learned from Lu Changqing that the chief manager of Chunlin Villa is named Ye Bozhen, a native of Jiangxi, who was a talent in the early years, and then tried repeatedly, so he became a lawyer. Later, he left his hometown and went to Jingzhou Mansion to fight a lawsuit for money disputes between merchants. Because of his neat pen and good eloquence, he slowly became famous, and if there were people in the rivers and lakes who committed crimes, he would also hire him to work with the yamen to eliminate disasters. By the time he was forty or fifty years old, he had earned a lot of family business. But a few years ago, this Ye Bozhen suddenly closed his door and no longer took over any litigation business. Later, I learned that he went to Chunlin Villa to be the chief manager. As we all know, there are two kinds of portals on the rivers and lakes, one is for the purpose of martial arts inheritance, or the establishment of a sect, or the transmission of family learning, most of these portals have land industries, whether it is renting land or opening a museum to accept apprentices, they are all making a living. In contrast, another kind of portal is not very visible, there are those who sell prohibited goods for huge profits, and there are those who receive money from people, although they do not do the business of killing people and setting fires, but they also violate the law. But there are so many people like this who dominate one side on the ground. Of course, it is indispensable to dredge up the veins with local officials. Chunlin Villa has become the leader among the latter, and naturally the credit of General Manager Ye is indispensable.

Listening to Lu Changqing's description, Qiu Yinming understood in his heart that Ye Bozhen must know the inside story of Chunlin Villa. Now that the owner of the village is in a hurry to summon him back, there must be something important for him to do, according to the meaning of the conversation between Long Shao and Di Taifeng heard the night ago, I am afraid that he will let him find out the traces of the governor. There is not much time at the moment, so there is no room for hesitation, it is better to take Ye Bozhen by surprise and take Ye Bozhen back to Jingzhou for interrogation, maybe even Zhang Tianyi's whereabouts can be found.

The two inadvertently chatted for more than half an hour. When parting, Lu Changqing said respectfully: "My lord, I am wise and brave, and I really admire it." I wish you success in this trip. Qiu Yinming said: "Don't dare to be." Brother Lu, there is some way to Dahong Mountain, why don't you wait for tomorrow to set off? Lu Changqing said: "The heart is like an arrow." While the weather is good now, it may rain again tomorrow. That is, he took his leave. Qiu Yinming thought to himself, this guy thought that he was afraid of getting into trouble, so he went to the ground with oil on the soles of his feet, and what did he say, he was willing to follow the work of dogs and horses, but he was actually an expert in seeing the wind and making the rudder.

Not long after Fang sent Lu Changqing away, the steward of the villa came, saying that the owner of the second village was invited. Qiu Yinming was a little uneasy, after a few considerations, he gave instructions like this with Chen Baisheng and Qiao San, and then followed the steward all the way out of the manor, and saw from a distance that Long Shao was sitting alone by the lake fishing.

Hearing that Qiu Yinming was coming, Long Shao didn't get up, turned his head and said casually: "Master Qiuzhai, it's very boring for me to fish alone, so it's better for you and me to talk casually." I haven't seen you for two days. ”

Qiu Yinming smiled lightly with his hands in his hands: "The second owner is so comfortable." Why do you miss me for nothing? Long Shao saw that he was just standing a few steps away, so he got up helplessly and saluted: "Why should the owner of the village see outside, I just want to do the friendship of the landlord and get to know each other." After all, people like the owner of the village are very rare. Qiu Yinming replied: "The second village master praises falsely. ”

There is a gentle breeze on the lake, and the vegetation on the shore is abundant, and the humidity is overwhelming. Qiu Yinming picked up the boom, threw the bait hook far into the lake, and sat on another low stool. There was a small table between the two, with wine and food, and what looked like a roasted pigeon on the plate. Long Shao poured him a glass of wine and said, "Please take care of yourself." Pheasants in the mountains. Qiu Yinming took the cup and smelled it, sweet and sour, it should be plum wine, and out of the corner of his eye, he caught a glimpse of Long Shao pouring himself half a cup and drinking it all, Fang took a sip, and said: "Second Zhuang Master, I talked to the big Zhuang owner yesterday, and I saw that he seemed to be bothered about something." Long Shao said: "Oh, the owner of the village probably knows that the Qingliu Society of Jingzhou Mansion has always been friendly with us, and recently offended the Xihai League, so the master Zhang avoided trouble." When the master was having a banquet that day, the senior brother suddenly received a letter from a subordinate in Jingzhou, saying that the newly arrived governor of Huguang not long ago had also set his sights on the Qingliu Society. You know, the people on our rivers and lakes don't want to be involved with the government. That's why he is troubled. ”

Long Shao spoke leisurely, and he was much more powerful than Master Zhu. Qiu Yinming remained silent, looked at the float on the fishing line, and said: "I heard in Jingzhou that Zhang Dangjia of the Qingliu Society has a good relationship with the government, and I am afraid of the governor. Second owner, am I wrong? Long Shao smiled slightly: "The owner of the village has not been in Jingzhou for a long time, and the news is quite popular. With all due respect, why did you settle down in a nameless cottage from such a famous teacher, isn't it a little overkill. Why don't you come to my villa, according to my master's appreciation of you, it is not impossible for you to be the owner of the three villages. ”

Qiu Yinming shook his head and smiled: "The second owner of the village is too willing to treat others with his own heart. I have no intention of going to anyone. Long Shao said: "Yes, even if it is the Xihai League, the owner of the village is not interested?" Qiu Yin glanced at him and said, "What do you mean by this?" Long Shao lightly flicked the flying insect that fell on his sleeve and said, "Village master, I see that your relationship with the Xihai Alliance is extraordinary." Don't think that no one can see it, you and the eldest lady of the Xihai Alliance are eyebrowning in public. ”

"How can the second owner be so boring." Although Qiu Yinming was a little embarrassed by him, he didn't give in at all, and his face was still the same: "Yes, I confirmed her." What does this have to do with taking refuge in the Western Sea League? Besides, the West Sea Alliance is flying high, and no one is respectful and stays away. Long Shao hooked the corners of his mouth and said: "The owner of the village is really special." I'm going to talk to Master and leave you behind. There was a sharp look in the show. Then he poured another glass of wine for Qiu Yinming and said, "I know that Senior Brother has already invited you, so I won't say more." I also hope that the owner of the village will not dislike, live more time in the village, there are many good scenery in this mountain, and I will go to enjoy it slowly with you another day. Qiu Yinming did not shirk.

Long Shao suddenly said again: "The two brothers who came with you, will you also introduce them another day?" Qiu Yinming said: "It's unfortunate. The stockade really needs to be guarded, so we have asked them to go back first. I'll only see you next time. Long Shao raised his eyebrows slightly, as if to say to himself: "Yes." ”

Let's say that in the afternoon of this day, in addition to Lu Changqing, several other families and horses also set off. In the evening, the owner of Zhu Zhuang feasted in the back garden for everyone who would leave early tomorrow morning. There were not many people at the table, and the guests were only the head of Wudang Cheng, Duan Yunyi, Master Luo of Shenjian Villa, Qiu Yinming, and Hengyu of Xihai League and Shi Jinzhong, Zhu Zhuang was at the head, and Long Shao had something to do in the future, so he invited Di Taifeng to sit with him. The owner of Zhu Zhuang was very polite and courteous, and frequently persuaded him to drink.

Qiu Yinming and Duan Yunyi were seated. When they were free the day before yesterday, the two chatted for a long time. Talking about the recent situation, Qiu Yinming inadvertently asked, Fang learned that Duan Yunyi's uncle was bent on handing over the Duan family's family business to him, and he also made a proposal on his own, and went to Hangzhou to ask the Sword Pavilion to propose to Miss Bai for him. Wenjian Pavilion is the leader of the alliance on the white road, his family is rich and famous, and there is almost no one in the famous and righteous path that can match his family. Knowing that his uncle had this idea, Duan Yunyi refused to do so. But who knew that Master Duan went without saying hello. Who knew that Bai Mengyang agreed, and immediately drafted the marriage letter, settled the matter, and completed the marriage at the beginning of the month. Ask the Sword Pavilion to have two happy events this year, first the eldest prince married Miss Dongfang in August, and then the young lady married the chief disciple of the Wudang faction at the end of the year, and the good story has already spread.

At this time, Duan Yunyi sighed to Qiu Yinming: "Uncle treats me so well. always said that my life was too hard, and I always wanted me to start a family. How could I live up to his old man's kindness. But the man has ambitions in all directions, and now his career is unsuccessful, and he really doesn't want to settle down like this. Qiu Yinming said: "You already have a good reputation in the rivers and lakes, and now that you have this in-laws, you should be like a tiger." Duan Yunyi shook his head and said, "But I don't want to rely on his family's reputation." Qiu Yin knew that his heart was extremely high, and he couldn't tolerate outsiders' tongues, so he turned to say: "The next time I see your uncle, say hello to his old man for me." ”

The two gossiped casually, Qiu Yinming seemed to be leisurely at this time, but in fact, he was nervous a little bit. It turned out that after saying goodbye to Lu Changqing, he immediately discussed with Chen and Qiao, and the two of them secretly packed their luggage, horses, and weapons, and ambushed them on the way out of the mountain. According to his judgment, the owner of Zhu Zhuang will definitely give the errand of investigating the governor to the chief manager Ye today, and send him to do it urgently, so he asked the two to wait for the rabbit, and when they see the chief manager going out, they will come to report. At that time, he left together, looking for an opportunity to kidnap Chief Ye halfway. From the afternoon to the night, and not waiting for a reply, it is really unsettling. Raising his eyes and looking at the opposite seat, Hengyu was still sitting diagonally opposite, talking to the owner of Zhu Zhuang. When I came back from fishing earlier, I didn't tell her because I thought it happened suddenly, so I wrote a letter and went to the courtyard where Xihai League settled, and happened to meet Shi Jinzhong, so I asked him to send the letter in. Fang just looked at each other from the table, and Hengyu nodded at him, understanding that she had seen the letter. After a while, he will say goodbye without saying goodbye, teaching people to feel good in their hearts.

Just as he was worried, someone from outside the garden suddenly ran in, until he was on the table, and said to Qiu Yinming: "Master Qiuzhai, your brother is coming to you." It's right outside. ”

Qiu Yinming was in good spirits, got up in vain, said hello to the owner of Zhu Zhuang, walked out of the garden gate quickly, saw Chen Baisheng, the two walked away a few steps, Chen Baisheng whispered: "Come out, with the second owner." Now it's about five miles from the villa. In the direction of Guizhou County. Qiu Yinming asked, "How many people?" Chen Baisheng said: "Except for Long Shao, there are only four ordinary entourage. What to do? I asked Qiao San to follow from a distance and leave a good mark. Qiu Yinming pondered for a moment, and then said, "Go!" My horse you brought? Chen Baisheng nodded and said, "Outside, I also found two knives for you." Qiu Yinming said: "In this way, you take my horse with you first, and wait for me three miles away." I'll come out and chase you when I get a chance. ”

Chen Baisheng had to be ordered to leave. Qiu Yinming returned to the garden and said to Master Zhu: "I'm sorry, Brother Fang, I forgot to take something. Zhu Zhengyu smiled: "Why don't you call in for a glass of wine before leaving." Qiu Yinming said: "Another brother is still waiting halfway." ”

Di Taifeng said on the side: "This is going to be changed, the road is slippery after dark, why don't you go again on the other day." Qiu Yinming had no choice but to say: "That brother has been away from home for a long time, and I can't wait to go back as soon as possible." After saying that, he felt that this reason was very far-fetched, and he was helpless, so he hurriedly said: "No way, they are all real people." When Di Taifeng heard this, he didn't say anything, but smiled.

After another half a cup of tea, Qiu Yinming really couldn't sit still, and when he saw that everyone had drunk three rounds and talked eloquently, he excused himself to clean his hands, went out from the garden gate, and then disappeared into the shadows of the flowers and trees, and quickly touched the side gate of the villa according to the path he had secretly watched in the past few days, came out over the wall, and hurried all the way to chase Chen Baisheng.
