Chapter 343: What the Pawn Department Sees
In the realm of the Great Grandmaster, any wind and grass within a radius of 100 meters is in his eyes, Jiang Boyu understands this, and Qin Xian'er also understands.
But they said those words behind their backs, just to let themselves give them a face, after all, as elders, they acted in such a play because they wanted to stay in Yan Dan, and they lost face when they spread it.
Ye Bai naturally understood this in his heart, so on the way to the Pawn Office with Jiang Boyao, neither of them talked about what happened in Jiang Boyao's courtyard before.
And about half an hour later, the two of them arrived at the pawn office in a carriage.
The Great Zhou Pawn Office is an institution specifically responsible for diplomatic affairs, not only to receive envoys from other countries, but also to maintain some trade with other countries.
For example, if the people of the Great Zhou Dynasty do business in Great Qin, they must at least file it with the Pawn Office, otherwise, the Great Zhou can define it as smuggling or fornicating with other countries.
But generally speaking, the Pawn Office is still relatively leisurely, Ye Bai followed Jiang Bieli into the Pawn Office, and did not meet anyone along the way, except for some soldiers who patrolled daily, Ye Bai only saw two people who wore the same official uniform as Jiang Bieli.
Walking and stopping all the way, left and right, Ye Bai followed Jiang Boyo to the outside of a room.
The door was open, and judging from the layout inside, it was supposed to be an office place.
The room is very large, with desks, bookshelves, pens, ink, paper, inkstones and other things, and some tables with some tea and fruit snacks on them.
It's just that there is only one person in the room, and it is Cui Guang, the pawn guest that Ye Bai had seen at the gate of Dadu before!
He was sitting in the middle of the room against the wall, looking at a book in his left hand.
Behind him, there were two maps, Ye Bai took a closer look, and found that one of them was a map of the border of the Great Zhou Kingdom, which was marked with the names of some cities, villages and landscapes of the Great Zhou, although it was not very careful, but in this era, it was also very rare.
The other is a map of the three major countries in the entire Eastern Regions, but on this side, the names of some large cities and more famous mountains and rivers are also marked.
"Come, sit!"
Cui Guang, as a grandmaster martial artist, even if he was reading a book, he also noticed the arrival of Jiang Boyo and Ye Bai, but he didn't look up at all, and pointed to the desk beside him with his right hand, asking Jiang Boyo and Ye Bai to sit down.
The two of them were not polite, they sat down directly on the side, and on the way, Jiang Boyo told Ye Bai about the relationship between Cui Guang and the Jiang family, and there were no outsiders here, so naturally there was no need to pretend.
"You've made a big mess this time, and the team of 100 people is only half of the capital left!"
"Today, in the last court, Taiwei Yang also asked the eldest prince to participate in your copy!"
The Yang Taiwei in Cui Guang's mouth is obviously the head of the Yang family and Yang Ting's uncle.
As a lieutenant, he is in charge of some military affairs, and this time they took a team of Imperial City troops to meet the envoy group, and as a result, he suffered heavy losses, as a captain, he naturally wouldn't just ignore it!
Even if Yang Ting is here this time, then those who should be punished still have to be punished, after all, most of the situation is chaotic now, and they can't leave any handle for others!
"But fortunately, the eldest prince has already received the twists and turns of the city lords of Yicheng and Ancheng, and knows that you have encountered a lot of things along the way, not only in Yicheng to help the Jiang City Lord solve the matter of the Blood Demon Sect, but also in Ancheng to solve the matter of the Corpse Demon Sect!"
After all, the Blood Demon Sect and the Corpse Demon Sect are not trivial matters, Jiang Bieli and Ye Wudao have naturally reported the matter, especially the matter of Ancheng, if the corpse poison breaks out, it is not something that can be solved by Ancheng.
It is really because of these two things that Ye Bai's reputation will become bigger and bigger in the court!
After all, the Blood Demon Sect and the Corpse Demon Sect are not so easy to solve, and the affairs of these two forces have all been solved by Ye Bai, so in the eyes of the ministers of the court, this Ye Bai is naturally not such a simple character.
"And it will cause such a loss, and it is only the revenge of the people of the Blood Demon Sect, so the Great Prince has no intention of punishing you!"
The Blood Demon Sect's attack on them was said by Taiwei Yang himself, which is why Taiwei Yang would join Ye Bai and them, after all, he just wanted to carry out his own responsibility, but he didn't want to offend Ye Bai and Jiang Boyo to death.
Speaking of the attack of the Blood Demon Sect, he naturally wanted to put all the responsibility for this matter on the people of the Blood Demon Sect, after all, the Blood Demon Sect was originally wanted by the Great Zhou, and it didn't matter if there were more crimes!
Cui Guang put down the book in his hand, then glanced at Ye Bai with a strange expression, and said, "Not only that, but this time the eldest prince also personally ordered you to be responsible for preparing this Martial Saint's birthday banquet with Lei Meng!"
Lei Meng is a person from Zongzheng Mansion, and this Martial Saint Birthday Banquet should have been the one who should have been lost by Zongzheng Mansion, but I don't know why, the eldest prince would let Ye Bai interfere!
And Ye Bai was also stunned when he heard the news, then glanced at Cui Guang and Jiang Boyao, and found that Jiang Boyao was also surprised, Ye Bai understood that this was not the Jiang family's handiwork, so he naturally wanted to refuse, and immediately said: "Master Cui, this doesn't seem to be in line with the rules, I'm just a young envoy, how can I be in charge of such a big thing!"
After Ye Bai came to Dadu, he only planned to stay in the Jiang family in peace, waiting for the assessment of the academy, and he didn't want to get involved in other things at all.
Cui Guang looked at Ye Bai with strange eyes, and then said: "Fu doesn't follow the rules, I don't count what I said, I don't count what you say, this birthday banquet is obviously someone who deliberately made you responsible!"
"As for whether this is trying to deal with you or curry favor with you, I don't know!"
"But the appointment has already been made, and you have no reason to refuse!"
Cui Guang pointed to a letter of resignation on his desk, then threw it to Ye Bai, and continued to speak: "I'm afraid many people already know about the matter between you and Lei Meng yesterday, and this time I let the two of you be in charge of this matter, because the above doesn't want you to be hostile to Lei Meng and wants to improve the relationship between the two of you!"
Yesterday, Ye Bai suppressed Raymond in public, this matter has been seen by many people, and Raymond and Ye Bai are both famous heroes in the Great Zhou, and one is from the Jiang family and the other is from the Lei family, and it is not a trivial matter for the two of them to have a conflict, so it is normal for the above to have such a plan.
Cui Guang's words have reached such a point, Ye Bai doesn't understand that he has been targeted, and if he wants to live in peace during this time, I'm afraid it's just wishful thinking!
