Chapter 655: Buying People's Hearts
Ye Jinyu followed closely and looked over, there had been a commotion outside for so long, and no one in the teahouse had come out to take care of things.
This is wrong, she thought that this man was touching porcelain, but she kept trying to pull her to see the official, could it be that someone was plotting against her behind her back?
"Ling Zhao, have our people entered the teahouse to check?" Ye Jinyu asked in a low voice.
Ling Zhao nodded, "I've already gone in, but I haven't come out yet." β
"Well, let's take the child to a nearby hospital for treatment first." Ye Jinyu looked at the man again, "This big brother, who is behind your back, I won't investigate it for the time being." But looking at this situation, that person will definitely not come forward to help you out, so come with us first. β
The man looked at the teahouse again, his feet seemed to be on the ground, and he just refused to move an inch.
"Who's making trouble here?" A question suddenly sounded behind the crowd, Ye Jinyu looked over, and saw several catchers rushing over, and the last one to appear was Qi Guanyu.
When the man saw the people from the yamen appear, he suddenly changed his face, knelt down in front of them with a puff, and complained bitterly with tears in his eyes that Ye Jinyu disregarded his son's safety in order to avoid danger, and was even more arrogant afterwards and wanted to forcibly take his son away.
Ye Jinyu was dumbfounded when he heard this, recklessly reversing black and white in front of so many people, is this really stupid or does he have a trick?
The Yamen's catchers basically know Ye Jinyu, and their boss is also here, so this kind of thing of standing up for their own sister naturally has to be left to the boss, and they only look at each other.
Qi Guanyu looked at Ye Jinyu, who shrugged his shoulders with an innocent and helpless expression.
After the man finished crying, the guards of the Hou Mansion also brought out the steward of the teahouse, and the steward looked at the broken window on the ground, and his face was full of regret. Then he realized that the people from the government were still here, and then looked at the guards around Ye Jinyu, and knew that this was also a master with status, and if they were investigated, their teahouse would not be enough to compensate.
"Alas, a few officials, and this girl, I'm really sorry for the shop, why don't you go in first......"
"It's all a bunch of dog-eyed things, phew." The kneeling man was indignant, kowtowed to Qi Guanyu and the others, and said angrily: "Official, the villain thinks he is unlucky and doesn't ask for compensation, he just wants to seek justice for my son, and asks the official to be the master of us ordinary people." β
Ye Jinyu shook his head speechlessly, took two steps forward, saluted and said, "Adult, the child really broke his foot, let's send him to the hospital for diagnosis and treatment first." β
"Yes, yes, my son's foot is still injured, and now that the official is here, the villain is not afraid of them bullying others, so it is important to treat the child's injuries first." The man's face changed again.
Ye Jinyu resisted the urge to roll his eyes and followed everyone to the nearby medical hall.
When treating the child's injuries, Ye Jinyu and Qi Guanyu walked outside the hospital to talk.
"Why is it such a coincidence, my cousin came so timely, did someone go to the yamen to report the case?" Ye Jinyu thought that this matter was likely to be a conspiracy against her, and couldn't help asking.
Qi Guanyu said: "I was patrolling around here today, and I happened to hear the movement and rushed over, listening to my cousin's meaning, but what are you suspicious?" β
Ye Jinyu shrugged, "Everything is too coincidental, that man is also very strange, by the way, does anyone know about my cousin coming out to patrol?" β
Qi Guanyu said: "Everyone in the yamen knows, you forgot, I will come to patrol the streets every few days. β
Ye Jinyu smiled awkwardly, "Haha, I can't remember clearly, is the location of my cousin's patrol fixed?" β
Qi Guanyu shook his head.
"Then did your cousin meet an acquaintance in the neighborhood today?" Ye Jinyu asked again.
"This matter will be investigated by the brotherhood, don't worry, I will tell you the results." Qi Guanyu patted her shoulder as a sign of comfort.
"I suspect that someone is trying to fix me, but I don't remember who I offended, so I will bother my brother." Ye Jinyu laughed embarrassedly, and then turned to embarrassment: "If my cousin lets me go now, will the person inside make a big deal and say that you are cheating for personal gain and covering up your relatives." β
Qi Guanyu waved his hand and said indifferently: "It's okay, I have my own way to treat him." β
Ye Jinyu waited until Ling Zhao came out to report the child's condition, and after learning that his foot was only slightly sprained and not serious, he took someone back to the Hou Mansion first.
In the next few days, she went to Chen's house to practice tattoos as usual, and returned home after practice, without staying on the street or encountering any accidents.
That night, she came to Admiralty City again, and found them sitting in an inn, and the three of them had also come.
"The matter of Iris City was settled so quickly?" Ye Jinyu said in surprise.
Qin Miaoyin said: "The recipe for the antidote is already known to the doctors of the medical hall, I remember that last time we were still distributing the antidote to the people, and this time we suddenly came here." β
There were very few people in the inn, and the guests and men who came and went seemed to be non-existent, and the officials of Iris City who had come with them were gone.
"Jin Yu, I have something to tell you." Qi Guanyu arched his hand at the others, and motioned for Ye Jinyu to follow him.
The two walked to the corner of the inn, and Qi Guanyu said: "I have already checked out the matter last time, the teahouse suddenly changed hands the next day, and the boss and his men are all missing......
Ye Jinyu's eyes widened, "You won't be killed, right?" β
Qi Guanyu shook his head, "No, I later sent someone to inquire about the soldiers at the gate of the city, only to know that these people had already left Yingcheng one after another." β
"Who is that trying to harm me? And how was the father and son that day? Ye Jinyu frowned and asked.
Qi Guan pondered for a long time, as if he was a little embarrassed to speak, Ye Jinyu became even more curious, urging him to hurry up. Jiujiu Chinese
"The father and son were not locals, and it was said that they had come to join their relatives, but the relatives refused to take them in, and they happened to meet a man in desperation......"
Ye Jinyu listened to this vulgar story, full of slots, but he couldn't say it.
The man the father and son met was her mysterious enemy, who not only helped them settle the money they owed at the inn, but also promised to give them a hundred taels, but this was conditional.
"Who the hell is this man? The way to frame me is too clumsy, and it will be broken as soon as you poke it, is it possible that such a big deal is just to make me ugly in public and make me unhappy? That's too naΓ―ve. Ye Jinyu couldn't cry or laugh.
Qi Guanyu coughed lightly uncomfortably, and said in Ye Jinyu's curious gaze: "It's Miss Yuan San!" β
Ye Jinyu was dumbfounded, and it took a long time to come back to his senses, and he couldn't help laughing. Now she understood why this enemy was so naΓ―ve, she must have wanted to see her make a fool of herself in front of Qi Guanyu.
Tsk, it's rich!
"Cousin, does Miss Yuan San know that your family affairs were destroyed by me?" Ye Jinyu asked in a low voice.
Qi Guanyu was even more uncomfortable, looked left and right, and said in a righteous manner: "This matter has nothing to do with you, it was Miss Yuan San who misunderstood, I have explained it to her clearly, and I will not embarrass you again in the future." β
"That's good!" Ye Jinyu nodded, but she felt that Yuan Rong would definitely not listen to her cousin's persuasion, and it would be better to guard against it in the future.
"What do you want to do last time?" Qi Guanyu asked.
"Forget it, I think that Yuan San girl spent a lot of unjust money, I just lost face, in terms of losses, she is more serious, I don't care about her if I have a lot of adults." Ye Jinyu pretended to be relaxed and said.
It wasn't a big deal, and she also indirectly destroyed Yuan Rong's marriage, so this time it was even better.
"I haven't told my father and the Yuan family about this matter, if you don't want to pursue ......"
"Cough, Sister Yi, Brother Guanyu, there's someone over there, if you don't have anything important, go over and have a look, right?" Qin Miaoyin was forced to come over to call someone, and her mood was very complicated.
One is Sister Yi's former sweetheart, and the other is the possessive Hou Ye, but Sister Yi doesn't know that her current behavior has become more and more dangerous.
And the most unlucky thing is her, caught between these three people, living physically and mentally exhausted and miserable.
"What's wrong with you, your expression is so uncomfortable, who bullied you?" Ye Jinyu looked at Qin Miaoyin strangely.
Qin Miaoyin resisted the urge to complain, grabbed Ye Jinyu's arm and walked back, she felt that if she stayed here any longer, Hou Ye would be able to stare a hole in her back.
Back in their original positions, a few officials from Iris City came back, but Ye Chengci, a close confidant of the prefect, was not among them.
"What's wrong?" Li Sui's voice was very cold, and Ye Jinyu's heart was cold when he heard it.
The official who took the lead said indignantly: "The prefect of Admiralty City is not a thing, and he said that he would discuss peace with Mr. Ye first, but who knew that they set a trap to arrest Mr. Ye and killed the two brothers who accompanied us. β
"They don't want to make peace? Or are you dissatisfied with the terms of the peace talks? Li Sui asked.
The official said: "They said that if they want to negotiate peace, they must come forward in person, and they will only give us one day, if the adults have not come, they will directly kill Mr. Ye, and they will also send troops to Iris City." β
Another official said angrily: "They have deceived people so much, and we adults are willing to cede the land because we cannot bear the suffering of the people, but they kick their noses in the face." In my opinion, I will fight them, and we are not afraid of them. β
Saying this, everyone present knows that because of this "cholera" Iris City's government not only lost the hearts of the people, but also many soldiers were poisoned. Now Iris City can be said to be a big loss of vitality, and if there is a war at this time, there is no chance of winning at all.
And Jin Zhongcheng lost a great opportunity to buy people's hearts, so he naturally wanted to reap the benefits elsewhere.
"A few envoys from the capital, even the officials of Admiralty City don't dare not give face, can you please go to the yamen and persuade that prefect Cheng again?" The chief officer bowed to them.
Qi Guanyu thought for a while and took the initiative to stand out, "Let's go over and explore the wind first." β
The official cha said happily: "This is very good, please son." β
Seeing Qi Guanyu away, Ye Jinyu turned his head and said to them: "If my cousin goes, it's useless, then this matter will be difficult to do." If the prefect of Iris City is invited over, Admiralty City will definitely take advantage of the fire to rob, and the people of Iris City may not be able to endure such bullying. β
"So what are we going to do? Will there really be a war? Qin Miaoyin looked at her nervously.
Ye Jinyu said again: "I have an idea, let's take advantage of my cousin's ...... containment."
With a snap, Li Sui put the teacup in his hand on the table, turned his head to Jing Xingzhi and Qin Miaoyin and said, "You go and inquire about that Mr. Ye first, and see where he is being held." β
Then he turned to Ye Jinyu and said coldly: "You come with me." With that, he got up and walked out.
Ye Jinyu spread her hands and looked at the other two people, she just wanted to say this, Brother Yun Yu was suddenly so angry, is he still angry about what happened last time?
Qin Miaoyin looked at her sympathetically, waved her hand and reminded in a low voice: "Go quickly, don't look at Brother Yu in front of Yunyu Gongzi." β
Ye Jinyu raised his eyebrows, didn't ask any more, got up and followed out.
After coming out, I found that this is outside the city of Admiralty, no wonder there are so few guests. They walked into the woods on the left, and there were golden bellflowers everywhere, adding a bit of loveliness to the forest.
