Regarding the scene where Zheng Taigong was so angry that he fainted on the spot and happened under his nose, Li Yi decisively chose to be a melon-eating crowd and ignored it.

Seeing this, the father-in-law on the side did not take action, but stood beside Li Yi with a cold face.

After a short time, the servants of the Zheng family carried Mrs. Zheng away, and the inventory of the Zheng family's property was almost completed.

"Back to the secretary, father-in-law."

The guards who took the lead in the inventory, with Ni Ba and others, took out boxes of treasures from the mansion, brought out dozens of maids and servants, and bowed and said: "A total of 8.32 million taels of gold and silver have been seized, 54 maids and 48 domestic servants. ”

"There are so many?" Li Yi frowned in surprise on the spot.

He didn't expect that Zheng Mingshu, an old guy, was just a small court servant, and the people and things in the mansion were much more luxurious than his father's Guogong Mansion.

However, when Li Yi thought about it, Zheng Mingshu was a member of a big family, and he was relieved.

But when the high prince on the side heard this, he was surprised for a while, and with a sharp and vicious eye, he immediately leaned forward and swept the maids who were brought out.

Gao Gonggong suddenly found that there were several maids whose figures and appearances seemed to be quite good.

Moreover, there are a few handmaidens among them, who are still chicks.

"Mi Cheng, can you let the old slave take a look?" Gao Gonggong suddenly bowed his hand to Li Yi and proposed in a loud voice.

Li Yi was a little puzzled, but he still nodded with a smile and stretched out his hand to signal: "Father-in-law, please." ”

"Thank you, Secret." Gao Gonggong nodded, then cut his hands behind his back, walked towards the group of servants, and swept his eyes seriously, and he already had a general understanding in his heart.

"You, you, you, come out." Gao Gonggong pointed to the three young girls with bewitching bodies and good looks, and commanded.

"Yes, father-in-law." The chosen maidservant walked out of the crowd of maidservants and stood in fear.

At this time, Gao Gonggong didn't care about them, but walked to the jewelry box and carefully swept the jewelry inside, a pair of old hands searched for it inside, and after looking for a long time, he only found a jade horse, which was a little special.

I saw that the jade horse, all over the body, showed a yellowish and purple color, compared with the rest of these jewels, it was much more valuable and atmospheric.

Gao Gonggong was about to pick up the jade horse, and called the three maidservants to come to Li Yi together.

"Secret." Gonggong Gao smiled, stuffed the blue purple jade horse into Li Yi's hand, and said with a smile, "This inconspicuous little object, please ask the secret to accept it, and the secret secretary can't work hard in vain." ”

As he spoke, Gonggong Gao approached Li Yi's ear again and said softly: "Actually, this is also the secret meaning of the saint. ”

"The meaning of the saint?" Li Yi pretended to be puzzled and looked at Gonggong Gao.

"Not bad!" Gonggong Gao nodded slightly, sighed lightly, and then said softly with a wry smile, "The old slave knows in his heart that Mi Cheng has always been clean-shaven, clean, and upright, but Mi Cheng, do you know that every time the people of the eldest grandson's family come to check their property, they will secretly collect a lot of money?" ”

"Hey, there's such a thing?" Li Yi deliberately pretended to be stupid, looked at Gonggong Gao, and shrank his head in disbelief and said, "Could it be ...... Won't the saints punish them? ”

"Hey......" Gonggong Gao sighed, thinking that Li Yi really didn't know, and couldn't help explaining, "Actually, the sage has always been a member of the Changsun family, and he came to do such an errand as a house, but the sage just turned a blind eye." ”

"But today, the nature of this matter is completely different."

"The saint personally ordered the secret secretary to come and seal it, just to let the secret secretary pick out some of these things, so that they can be hired as a dowry in the future."

"Or else...... With the secret of your family, it is not that the old slave deliberately dislikes it. ”

Grandpa Gao paused before continuing: "Grandpa Guo has always had a clean breeze on his sleeves, and he has very little property at home, so he is afraid that he will ...... in the future If the dowry is too shabby, not only the secretary, but even the grandfather of the country will be ridiculed by hundreds of officials. ”

"The secret servant treats the old slave well, and the old slave will say it from the bottom of his heart, and the secret will say to the secret man, this little thing, the secret man, you can accept it with confidence."

Father-in-law Gao looked very serious, staring at Li Yi, which made Li Yi laugh a little on the spot.

Thinking about this, Gao Gonggong is also really thinking about himself.

However, the meaning of the saint, I'm afraid it won't be this, right?

It's not that the saint doesn't know in his heart that there is his own shares in the Drunken Immortal Building.

"Bo'an thanks his father-in-law for the allocation, but Bo'an can't accept this thing." After pondering for a moment, Li Yi pushed the jade horse back, which made Gonggong Gao's face full of astonishment, and even a burst of surprise.

"I've already said it so clearly, why doesn't Li Bo'an accept it?"

"Li Bo'an, this guy is really a weirdo!"

Gao Gonggong sighed puzzled in his heart.

But seeing that Father-in-law Gao was so puzzled, Li Yi swept the handmaidens again, and said secretly, it is indeed worthy of being selected by Father-in-law Gao, thinking that these people should still be a chick, and their figures and faces are quite reluctant.

At least in Li Yi's opinion, that's just it.

After all, these maidservants, compared to Yue'er, are simply too bad.

"Father-in-law." Li Yi retracted his expression, glanced at his father-in-law, and said lightly, "My father has always been accustomed to a clean breeze on his sleeves, and Bo'an has always been taught by his father, this thing, Bo'an must not accept it, and he can't insult his father's teachings, as for these handmaidens, let them go back to be good." ”

"Ah......" Grandpa Gao was speechless for a moment, staring at Li Yi in disbelief.

If it was said before, Gao Gonggong was still doubting in his heart whether Li Yi was too timid to be greedy for money, but now, when he has told Li Yi everything he knows, but Li Yi still insists on doing so, Gao Gonggong suddenly understood.

Li Yi is indeed not greedy for money, and he has received an excellent upbringing!

Completely inherited Li Jing's good genetics!

For a while, Father-in-law Gao was completely impressed by Li Yi, and said secretly in his heart, "Grandpa Guo, Li Bo'an, and others who serve the country and the people, but there are people who are not greedy for money, presumably it is difficult to find a few in the world, right?" ”

"Huhu ......" After a long exhalation of several breaths, Gonggong Gao bowed solemnly to Li Yi and said, "Secret, please forgive the old slave for being rude just now, please don't blame Secret!" ”

"Father-in-law hurry up, Bo'an can't afford such a big gift." Li Yi hurriedly helped Li Yi up.

Only then did Grandpa Gao stand up straight.

However, at this time, even looking at Li Yi's expression, he had undergone a great change, with a full look of respect, just like he treated Li Jing, Qin Shubao and others.

Not only that, but even the guards on the side, the servants and maids of the Zheng family, all of them were in awe and heartfelt admiration when they saw Li Yi's refusal to secretly collect money.

"Childe."

Suddenly, when the sound of kneeling on the ground came out, I was still reluctant to think that Li Yi was exactly the same as the other gentlemen, but she immediately knelt on the ground, prostrate with her hands, and buried her forehead on it.

"The slave family has been an orphan since childhood, and was sold to Chang'an City by his adoptive father and adoptive mother, but the slave family is still innocent, please don't dislike the slave family's humble status, let the slave family stay with the son and take care of the son."

The maidservant's voice pleaded earnestly: "If it is a son, let the slave family go out to be good, the slave family has no other ability, but I am afraid of ...... I'm afraid that the slave family won't survive, so I ask the son to have mercy. ”

"Please have mercy on the slave family!" The other two maidservants also followed closely and pleaded.

"......" Li Yi was dumbfounded on the spot.

Even Gonggong Gao was stunned for a moment when he saw this, and then he nodded with a smile, looked at Li Yi and said, "Micheng, it's better for you to do a good deed and bring them back to the house, so that these poor people will not be corrupted." ”

"......" Li Yi glanced at Gao Gonggong speechlessly, and suddenly had a headache.

Although the figures and looks of these three maids are really good, Li Yi really doesn't want to take them in.

First, there are a lot of maidservants in his house, and second, these people were raided by the Zheng family.

Li Yi couldn't help but maintain a vigilant heart.

"Well, I'll give you some pestering, and you can open a small shop and do some small business yourself, how about it?" Li Yi looked at the three maidservants and said loudly.

The three maidservants kneeling on the ground couldn't help but be stunned, and suddenly I saw a small cry of pity.

"Childe, you dislike the slave family and others...... Is it a lowly status? One of the maidservants, Yingying, sobbed, and two lines of tears instantly hung on her eyes, looking very pitiful.

"Childe, the slave family doesn't ask for anything else, only that the son can take in the slave family." Another maidservant said with tears in her eyes, "Or else...... A few members of the slave family have no ability, so they can only go to Pingkangfang to sing, and ask the son to have mercy..."

"Please have mercy on the son...", the three maidservants immediately sobbed and said.

Seeing this, Li Yi became even more headache.

"Huhu ......" took a deep breath, Li Yi looked at the three maidservants, and said slowly, "Raise your head." ”

The three maidservants, pear blossoms raised their heads with rain and stared at Li Yi, their eyes pure and flawless.

"I ask you, where do you come from? How long have you been here? Li Yi carefully observed the changes in their expressions.

"The slave family is from Qinghe County, and it was bought the day before yesterday."

"The slave family is from Rongyang County and was bought yesterday."

"The slave family is from Jiangnan, and it was only bought yesterday."

The three maidservants replied honestly, their eyes did not dodge, even though Li Yi used psychological observation and research, but their eyes were as clear as water, and there was no sign of lying at all.

And there was a burst of pity and innocence in his expression.

Li Yi asked a few more questions one after another, and it was still the same, and Li Yi was relieved.

Thinking about it slightly, Li Yi said with relief: "Since this is the case, it is better to be like this, since you know the piano, chess, calligraphy and painting, why don't you go to the Zuixian Building first, how about being a pianist for dining?" Only sell your art, not your body. ”

"Drunken Immortal Building?"

As soon as they heard these three words, the faces of the three maidservants were all confused, and they didn't understand the meaning of this move at all.

After all, in their cognition, in the Drunken Immortal Building, except for the delicious food that is difficult to taste, there are no people and women in the piano master at all.

The three maidservants were a little confused when they heard it on the spot.

Seeing this, Li Yi smiled slightly, and said: "Don't worry, you go to the Zuixian Mansion to be a pianist first, after all, it is also a self-supporting way, and it will not be like in Pingkangfang." ”

"Thank you, Childe." When the three maidservants heard this, they immediately bowed their heads in thanks.

However, the father-in-law Gao on the side, as well as a group of guards, were shocked when they saw it, and they were surprised for a while.

"Sure enough, Li Gongzi is indeed a rare good person!"

Li Yi naturally didn't know what they were thinking.

It's just that when Li Yi saw these handmaidens, not only did they have a good appearance and figure, but they were almost comparable to the top brands in Pingkangfang, so Li Yi thought of a star-making plan in his heart.

Since they insisted on staying, it was better to ...... Wouldn't it be better to let them go to the Drunken Immortal Building and make more money for themselves?

Seeing that the maidservant had agreed, Li Yi glanced at the guards on the side, and just as he was about to give an order, Ni Ba, who was standing on the side, immediately stepped forward quickly.

Ni Ba took the initiative to salute and asked: "Childe, let the last general take them to the Drunken Immortal Tower, the last general is familiar with this area, hehe..."

"......" Li Yi instantly glanced at Ni Ba speechlessly.

"......" The rest of the guards were also speechless, and scolded secretly in their hearts, "Ni Ba, this dead dog's leg, actually robbed the opportunity for Lao Tzu to come forward to flatter!" ”

"In that case, I'll leave it to you." Li Yi said angrily.

Anyway, whoever hands it up is the same.

"Yes, Childe, the last general will definitely live up to Childe's trust!" Ni Ba saluted solemnly, and then turned around with the three maidservants.

At this moment, as for the other domestic servants and maidservants, no one cared about them, so Li Yi simply handed them over to Father-in-law Gao to deal with.

After that, he went to raid Wang Yan's house, and Li Yi came to the Vermilion Bird Gate with his father-in-law Gao.

------

In front of the Suzaku Gate, countless people have already gathered in front of the beheading platform.

Looking at the headstand, Wang Yan and Zheng Mingshu, who had died at some point, were tied up in front of the beheading table waiting for execution, and the faces of the ordinary people were full of joy.

"Hahahaha, the saint is really wise!"

"Zheng Mingshu, a dog official, has always relied on his sister to be Concubine Zheng Xian, and he has been arrogant in Chang'an City, and even abducted and defiled women from good families, but I didn't expect that he would have this end today, which is simply very happy, very happy!"

"Humph! Didn't you hear that? Zheng Mingshu and Wang Yan, the two dog officials, actually secretly sent people on Chinese New Year's Eve last night to poison our horse master, but fortunately, our horse master is fine! ”

"Yes, according to so-and-so, you should kill such a despicable villain as soon as possible!"

"Our horse master, that's a good person, not only found the imperial food for us, but also fables and Zhenguan pears, and also made it out for us."

"Zhenguan pear, it turned out to be a contribution from the horse master to the saint?"

"Or else? Do you think so-and-so is lying? An uncle of a certain family was also an official in the court, at that time, the uncle saw it with his own eyes, and the master of the horse took out the Zhenguan pear, and he was stunned and silent! ”

"Master Horse is really amazing, such a good person who works for us, we must not let people frame him!"

"Yes, not bad......"

A group of onlookers and people were talking, their faces were full of joy, and even bursts of pride were extremely unrestrained.

At this time, as soon as Li Yi, Gao Gonggong and others arrived at the Suzaku Gate, they were immediately startled by a burst of cheers.

"Look, it's the horse master who is here!"

"Master Pony!"

"Li Gongzi ......"

The bursts of Xuan He's continuous joyful voices made Li Yi stunned when he heard it, and he was very puzzled.

Even Gonggong Gao, as well as the guards who came with him, were shocked.

Lin Guards and others, who had been waiting for Gonggong Gao and Li Yi to come and prepare for execution, were also stunned on the spot, and were amazed in their hearts.

"I really didn't expect that Mi Cheng would be so popular!"

"Yes, as the saying goes, good people have good rewards, and the eyes of the people are bright!"

"Let's go, hurry up and meet the secret Cheng."

The guards muttered in their hearts, and when the Lin guards led by saw this, they immediately walked quickly to Li Yi and bowed slightly: "The last general has seen the secret and the father-in-law." ”

"Guards Lin don't have to be polite." Li Yi smiled and waved his hand, motioning for Guard Lin to get up.

Guard Lin nodded, and immediately stretched out his hand and asked Li Yi to take a seat.

Li Yi was not polite to him, and went straight to the upper seat to sit down, while Father-in-law Gao sat on the side.

After waiting for a while, Gonggong Gao looked up at the hours in the sky, and saw that it was almost noon, so he proposed: "Mi Cheng, is the execution now?" ”

"The time has come?"

"Here we are."

"Okay." Li Yi nodded, sat up straight, threw the killing token on the table, stood up from his seat, and loudly ordered the knife and axe hand: "Execute immediately!" ”

"Yes, Mi Cheng!" The axeman nodded in response, picked up a bowl of wine, and sprayed it at the broadsword, and with a pop, the wine spilled on the shiny chopper.

Hand up, knife up.

Under the sound of a breaking wind, just as the knife and axe hand was about to cut off his head, outside the Suzaku Gate, outside the crowd of onlookers, there was a sudden shout-

"Keep people under the knife!"

This loud shout suddenly came out like a thunder god, and at the same time, two sharp arrows flew almost 'whoosh' and hit the axeman's machete impartially.

"Bang!"

When the sound of a weapon touched it, it immediately made the knife and axe hand slash and landed on the wood of the chopping platform.

The axe man immediately looked up and looked at the person with a surprised expression.

Li Yi also frowned, and looked at the people together with Gonggong Gao, Lin Guards and others.

Hundreds of people also turned their heads and looked at the people who came.

I saw about three or five people coming, all of them dressed as palace guards, and at this time, he was driving a fast horse, almost galloping, and quickly came to the beheading table.

"Keep people under the knife, Li Micheng!" The person who came shouted and said, his eyebrows couldn't help but be raised, and his eyes stared at Li Yi coldly.

When he saw Zheng Mingshu and Wang Yan, who were still on the beheading table, and the hearts of the people who came, he couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief, and his face was slightly relaxed.

"Yang Lin?" Li Yi also saw clearly that the person who came was Yang Lin, who was degraded before --- Qianniuwei.

Li Yi raised his eyebrows slightly and looked at Yang Lin: "I don't know Yang Guard, what is the so-called matter?" ”

"......" As soon as Yang Lin heard this title from Li Yi's mouth, his heart suddenly felt a pain.

Originally, he was a Qianniu guard in the palace, but because of Li Yi, he was made into a small guard, and his current official position is no less than 108,000 miles worse than the previous official position of Qianniuwei.

"Li Micheng." Yang Lin fell off his horse, stared at Li Yi seriously, and said, "On the orders of Concubine Xian, I have come to ask Mi Cheng's subordinates to show mercy and leave the two of them a whole corpse." ”

Li Yi couldn't help but squint his eyes.

It's already at this time, Concubine Zheng Xian still hasn't forgotten the Zheng family and wants to keep a whole corpse?

"Do you have a decree to bring it?" Li Yi's face was indifferent.

"......" Yang Lin's voice was suddenly blocked, and he twitched the corners of his mouth in embarrassment, and then continued, "Holy decree, presumably someone will send it soon, and please wait for the secretary first, show mercy to his subordinates, and give Niangniang a thin face." ”

As soon as he heard this, Li Yi immediately understood what Yang Lin meant.

Concubine Zheng Xian asked Yang Lin to come to stop her first, and I only went to the Taiji Hall now to plead with Li Shimin, right?

However, with Li Yi's understanding of Li Shimin's "iron-hearted approach to the family", I am afraid that even if Concubine Zheng Xian goes to the Taiji Hall to intercede in person now, there will be no holy decree to come.

Even if you take a step back, due to the situation, Li Shimin's holy decree will definitely come late, and it will not meet the request of the family at all.

Thinking of this, Li Yi looked at Father-in-law Gao with a smile on his face, asking for his opinion, and while tempting, he also avoided letting himself go all out to take the blame: "Father-in-law Gao, what do you think of this matter?" ”

"Secret." Gonggong Gao thought for a moment, and said nonchalantly, "Since Concubine Xian Niangniang does not have a holy decree, then according to the law, Yang Guard's move can be regarded as interfering with the law, and according to the law of the Tang Dynasty, he should be taken down, arrested in prison, and waiting for the saint to deal with it." ”

"As for these two thieves, they should naturally be killed immediately!"

Gao Gonggong stared at Li Yi with a serious face, then smiled, and said: "Of course, this is just the old slave's personal foolish opinion, the old slave alone can't be the master, as for how to deal with it, I have to ask the secretary to decide." ”

Gao Gonggong also knew in his heart that Li Yi must have wanted to discuss with him when he asked this.

But at the same time, Gonggong Gao also knew very well in his heart that once anyone made this decision, he would definitely take the blame and be hated by Concubine Zheng Xian, the Zheng family, and the people of the Wang family.

However, when Gao Gonggong thought that Li Yi's personality was quite respected, and Li Yi almost died on Chinese New Year's Eve because of these two villains, Gao Gonggong gritted his teeth and decided to go back with Li Yi.

Anyway, the two of them also came by the will of God, and even if the saint pretended to blame, he would not punish them.

What's more, Li Yi also wanted to kill the two of them very much to relieve the pleasure of his heart.

Listening to Gao Gonggong's answer, Li Yi nodded and smiled with satisfaction, glanced at Yang Lin, and said with a smile: "Come on, arrest Yang Lin and the others together, if any of them dare to resist, they will be executed on the spot for the crime of robbing the law field!" ”

"Knife and axeman, execute immediately!"

"Yes, Mi Cheng!" Guards Lin immediately stepped forward with people, preparing to arrest Yang Lin and the other guards.

When Yang Lin and the others saw this, the guards behind him didn't dare to resist at all, but Yang Lin glared at Li Yi angrily and shouted: "Li Bo'an, you dare!" ”

"Noise!" Guard Lin's face turned cold, and he immediately went up to catch Yang Lin himself.

Seeing the Lin guards coming with a knife, Yang Lin's face turned cold, and just as he was about to fight back, Li Yi's understated voice came again-

"Guard Lin, you don't have to worry about being afraid, if he dares to resist arrest, he will be killed on the spot!"

"Yes, Mi Cheng!" Guard Lin replied sonorously.

With Li Yi's assurance, Lin Guard was not afraid, and came directly to Yang Lin in two steps, and the knife that Yang Lin was lifting in his hand immediately threw it to the ground with a 'clang'.

Yang Lin was stupefied on the spot.

Originally, he thought that he had found Concubine Zheng Xian as a backer, and with the Zheng family as a backer behind him, Li Yi didn't dare to give such an order to the guards, but Li Yi's understatement and disdain immediately frightened him.

Yang Lin decisively chose to be caught.

Also at this time.

"Poof!"

The knife and axe hand raised and fell, and in front of everyone, he slashed Wang Yan and Zheng Mingshu with one sword, and his head rolled to the ground, making Yang Lin's heart beat faster...

"Good! Well done! ”

"The secret is mighty!"

"The Mighty ...... of the Horse"
