Chapter 615: Preemptive Capture (Part II)
When Father-in-law Yu saw the painter enter the house, he introduced Lan Ziyi:
"Ziyi, this is the chief painter of Taichengwei, he can draw portraits just by listening to people's descriptions, and the flowers are vivid, no different from painting in person, Ziyi, you quickly tell him about the three people you saw today."
After hearing the words of Father-in-law Yu, the painter immediately turned to Lan Ziyi and said:
"Who has Wei Hou seen? What does it look like? As long as Wei Hou can say it, I can draw people. “
Lan Ziyi nodded, and then he deliberately wrote down the three people one by one, and soon under Lan Ziyi's description, the painter modified all the portraits of the three people.
When the painter finished spending, Father Yu waved his hand and said:
"Well done! Go down and get it!
Come on, send me a thousand households in the capital! “
After receiving the order, the painter clenched his fists and thanked him, and then turned and retreated, and another city guard outside the door answered the hall, and he stood in the middle of the room and saluted to the fish father:
"Father-in-law!"
When the man came in, he said:
"Aren't you known to millions of people in the capital? The people who can go to the private rooms in Jiangnan Building are all people with heads and faces in the capital, you won't be unrecognizable, right? Come and see who is in the portrait. “
Hearing this, the thousand households clasped their fists again and saluted, thanking Father-in-law Yu. This person can be a member of the city guard Qianhu, or a key person in charge of the capital territory, naturally he is one of the best people, he actually noticed the three portraits on the drawing board in the room from the moment he entered the door, at this time Father-in-law Yu ordered the task, he immediately replied:
"Back to my father-in-law, I know all three of them, one is the son of the right attendant of the Ministry of Rites, one is the son of Lu Jinxian, the son of the national prince of the wine festival, and the other is the son of Ji Tanyun, a giant businessman in Jiangdong."
Hearing this, Lan Ziyi immediately nodded and said:
"Lord Qianhu is right, these three people do have a surname Du, a surname Lu, and a surname Ji, and I have seen two of them in the poetry club, and I have an impression."
Qianhu said:
"Father-in-law, I've found out the person, what are the arrangements?"
Qianhu's so-called arrangement is naturally to arrest people, but Father-in-law Yu is not in a hurry, he touched his chin and said:
"Du Chengye is the right attendant of the Ministry of Rites, and Lu Jinxian is the son of the country, and these two people can't move without a conclusive excuse. What was that Ji Tanyun? “
Qianhu knew that Father-in-law Yu was asking him, so he immediately replied:
"Ji Tanyun is a wealthy businessman in the capital, with a lot of money, and he mainly does business with foreign businessmen on weekdays. This season, Tanyun's business is in Yuhang, and it is only a semicolon in the capital, which is taken care of by his son. “
Hearing this, Father-in-law Yu smiled and said:
"It's just a lowly businessman, and no matter how much money you have, you're a fat pig. Shoot him this time, and now you will bring someone to arrest his son!" “
Hearing this, Qianhu clenched his fists and nodded, and said vigorously:
"Father-in-law, don't worry, I will definitely arrest that kid surnamed Ji to see you!"
After saying that, Qianhu turned around and went out, ordered a group of people and left.
After Qianhu left, there were only three people left in the house, and after the fish father-in-law ordered someone to come in and clean up the drawing board, he said to Lan Ziyi:
"Ziyi, there is such a big matter to do, I don't think you can go back today, it's still early, why don't you play chess with me and talk about two games?"
Lan Ziyi said:
"My father-in-law is willing to deign to play chess with Ziyi, what reason does Ziyi have to refuse? Father-in-law, please. ”
Yu Gonggong smiled:
"Okay, that's good, Yue'er, you go and prepare the chessboard, and by the way, find someone to go to Weihou's mansion to report it, and say that Weihou has something to spend the night in the palace today."
Yue'er received the order to say ten thousand blessings, and then went out to run errands. As soon as Father-in-law Yu waited for Yueshan to leave, he immediately lowered his face and said to Lan Ziyi:
"Ziyi, I told you a long time ago, don't check the matter of military rations again, why don't you listen?"
Lan Ziyi said:
"Father-in-law, at this time and that time, you didn't let me check in the army at that time because you were still planning to sit on the ship of King De, and now my father-in-law has decided to assist the prince, and the matter of selling military rations privately can be used to blackmail both sides."
Father-in-law Yu snorted coldly and said:
"I never said I was going to assist the crown prince, that's just your own thoughts."
Lan Ziyi said:
"Father-in-law, I don't just think like this, I'm doing this, if you don't stop me, you're supporting me, why should you hesitate? King De and the emperor are both pinched in the hands of Father-in-law Yu, Father-in-law, if you continue to follow King De's side, you will not end well. ”
Fair Fish:
"Then I can't make a seven-wound punch, and King Gongde has to put himself in at the same time.
You think that you are holding military rations to blackmail both sides, so why don't you remember that those military rations were sold to the market when I was a prisoner, and if you investigate this matter, you are deducting basins on my head. The matter of military rations involves three parties, not two parties, Ziyi, you should sober up! “
Lan Ziyi said:
"If I don't check the military rations, what will I use to bring down Zhang Mingyue?"
Father-in-law Yu scolded angrily:
"You have a case of fraud in your hands, and that's not enough? Do you want to take a bite of the military rations and stick to it, do you want to do it with me, and you still want to stew everyone in the capital into a pot of soup and pour it into the river with one spoonful? “
Lan Ziyi and Father-in-law Yu became more and more angry the more they talked, and the quarrel was a little upset on both sides at this time. Lan Ziyi knew that he would hurt his anger if he quarreled, so he got up and knelt down for Father-in-law Yu, but he was not convinced, so he still stiffened his mouth and said in an indignant tone:
"Where does Ziyi dare!?"
Father-in-law Yu looked at Lan Ziyi, who was kneeling on the ground with his neck twisted, and suddenly felt funny, he scolded Lan Ziyi with a smile:
"The calf's personality is strong! Get up, get up, don't kneel. ”
Lan Ziyi patted his knees and got up and sat down, and at this time, Yueshan led the maid into the house with a chessboard and refreshments.
When Father-in-law Yu saw Yueshan coming in, he ended the conversation just now, and he said:
"Recently, it has been rumored that there is a deficit in Taicang's storage volume, and I also have a lot of black materials related to Taicang in my hands, and you can catch the shortfall. As for the matter you said, you can't use it until you have to, not only can't you use it, but you also have to take the opportunity of Taicang's deficit to wash that thing away, as for the evidence materials you can master, if you can hold it, you will hide it, and if you can't hold it, you will destroy it as soon as possible, so as not to have too many dreams at night. ”
Lan Ziyi knew that Father-in-law Yu would not agree to track down the matter of military rations, so he had to retreat, and he arched his hand:
"Ziyi obeys!"
Seeing that Lan Ziyi was soft, Father-in-law Yu nodded with satisfaction, he asked Yueshan and the ladies to set up the chessboard and refreshments, and at the same time beckoned Lan Ziyi to come over. While burying his head in the arrangement, Yueshan asked Yu Gong to be fair:
"Dad, what were you talking to Wei Hou about just now?"
Father-in-law Yu set up the chessboard for Lan Ziyi on the opposite side, and replied when he heard the words:
"If the woman knows, don't ask more."
Yue'er Road:
"Could it be that Wei Hou just said something about military rations? When you were there just now, your father only arranged one thing, so you must have arranged another thing when your daughter was away? “
Yue'er laughed after brushing the fish, and he said:
"Since Wu'er knows what I'm hiding, why don't you learn smarter and shut up in time?"
Lan Ziyi heard a hint of coolness from Father-in-law Yu's mouth, if he was talking to Father-in-law Yu now, then he would definitely shut up and say no more. But Yue'er didn't worry as much as Lan Ziyi, she obviously knew Father-in-law Yu better, and she had her own intentions to break things up in public like this, so she just laughed and said:
"Dad~, my daughter has been with you for so long, how can she not know that she shouldn't ask? But Wei Hou has always been bold and assertive, and if you don't let him do it, he will only think about it, and he won't listen to it all. “
Saying that, Yueshan looked at Lan Ziyi with a smile and said:
"You said yes, Wei Hou?"
Lan Ziyi knew that Yueshanjian was avenging the attack just now, but he had no good reason to refute Yueshanjian, so he had to laugh and laugh:
"Yue'er, you're really going to add fuel and vinegar to me!"
Father-in-law Yu has been busy setting up the chessboard for half a day, as if he didn't care about the conversation between the two, and now that this pair of young people are talking to each other, Father-in-law Yu has no choice but to make a decision:
"Son, Wei Hou is doing things specifically, he has to make his own arrangements for handling things, so don't interfere more. What I don't let Wei Hou do is very important, presumably Wei Hou will not disobey the yin. “
Saying that, Father-in-law Yu looked at Lan Ziyi, and Lan Ziyi also gave his hand again and said softly:
"Ziyi understands, Ziyi doesn't dare to act rashly."
