Chapter 45: The Five Dragons Marry (1)
"We have three clerks! The devices are all registered! The woman said loudly, looked at the smashed tables and chairs around her, and said hatefully: "What did you rely on to force your way into people's houses and destroy things?" ”
Before Wu Zhi could speak, the guards on the side had already smashed her head with the hilt of his sword, and shouted, "Presumptuous! Dare to shout in front of nobles! "After all, your king Chitose didn't speak, and the guards didn't dare to reveal the identity of the prince casually.
The man and woman dodged away, the guards were even angrier, and they wanted to smash it again, but Wu Zhi waved his hand and said, "Forget it!" The guard stopped stupidly.
Some of the people on the other side also whispered: "Young master, say a few words!" The woman snorted, biting her lip and not speaking again. Just looked at Wu Zhi, and the eyes of the others were full of stubbornness and disobedience.
Wu Zhi frowned, pointed to the man in Tsing Yi who had persuaded the woman just now, and said, "Take him, let's go!" The guards couldn't help but say, and when they went up, they overturned the man in the green shirt and tied him up. The man in the green shirt struggled a few times, and immediately put a few bright steel knives on his neck, and he didn't dare to move.
The man and woman clenched the short sword in her hand and said coldly: "Why do you take people? Who the hell are you?! ”
Wu Zhi made a gesture and walked out of the door, the guards hurriedly followed left and right, Wu Zhi said as he walked: "Just ask some questions with your friends, tomorrow you go to your king's mansion to receive people, and by the way, you will compensate for the loss of your store." The man and woman wanted to chase it out, but they were persuaded by others, and Wu Zhi faintly heard something like "think long-term".
On the way back to the house, a person sneaked up on a person from a distant place behind, and Wu Zhi instructed the guards to ignore him, thinking that the other party was afraid of what he said nonsense about the prince's mansion, so he sent someone to keep an eye on him.
The Suzaku Hall of the Imperial Palace. Wu Zhi sat in the middle behind a huge handsome case, on which were placed the four treasures of the study, the pen holder paperweight, and the inkstone of one side was one foot square. The guards on both sides stood solemnly, murderous.
The man in Tsing Yi has never seen this formation, since he was brought in by the guards, he has been kowtowing there vigorously, and the words in his mouth are even more divine, I am afraid that he will be scared stupid.
The reason why Wu Zhi brought him back was to see that he was pale when he was surrounded by guards, and later persuaded the so-called young master not to annoy himself, he was obviously a cowardly and cowardly, and he was an excellent candidate to ask for information.
Wu Zhi was not in a hurry, and slowly chatted with him without a word, the man in Tsing Yi gradually stabilized his mood, and answered Wu Zhi's questions, one answer to ten, originally Wu Zhi just wanted to ask him if he knew about the Lu Family Gang, but this guy shook the bottom of his Shandong Salt Gang first.
The man in Tsing Yi is called Bai Sheng, and the group of Rongshunlou are all from Yuncheng, Shandong, and they are the Zhuang guests taken in by Baozheng Chao Gai in Dongxi Village, Yuncheng. Yun'er is Chao Gai's righteous daughter, although she is a woman, she has helped Chao Gai to operate private salt since two years ago, and she is highly respected by all the villagers. Because Yun'er often walks around, she always wears men's clothes. Chao Gai recently heard that the Lu family gang, which had been occupying the illegal salt business in the capital, was in big trouble, and it was rumored that they had fled to the southwest. He had wanted to expand his business to the capital several times, and immediately sent Yun'er to bring more than a dozen capable bankers to the capital to make an outpost. Yun'er saw that Rong Shunlou was in a hurry to pawn it, and the price was low, so she bought it. Who knew there would be such a big trouble?
After Wu Zhi asked him a few more details, he ordered someone to take Bai Sheng down, he didn't expect that the Lu family gang had run away to the southwest, no wonder they couldn't be found, there were a large number of natives in the southwest and northwest, and the control of the imperial court was very weak, so it was a good place to hide. The scoop handle of the Lu family gang is also very smart. was thinking about how to concoct the Lu family gang, when a guard hurriedly came in outside, knelt down on one knee and said, "Chitose, Gao Dianshuai asks to see Chitose!" I'm waiting outside the house! "Gao Yu's official position at this time is the privy deputy envoy, and he is generally called the palace marshal.
Wu Zhi wondered in his heart, although there were many people who came to visit him in the past few days, there were few heavyweights, and none of the six Zaifu were missing, most of them were to avoid suspicion. How can Gao Yu be considered a welterweight player, don't you understand these unspoken rules of the Asari?
Doubts are doubts, Wu Zhi still greeted him with a smile, and on the square outside the gate of your palace, Gao Yu stood with a pale face, and there were seven or eight guards behind him.
Wu Zhi saw that Gao Yu's face was ugly, and he wondered in his heart, who would show him a horse face? He said with a smile on his face: "Don't come to the palace marshal, since the last time I said goodbye, I haven't seen the palace marshal for several months, near Japan wants to visit the palace marshal, I don't want to be busy, don't blame the palace marshal!" ”
Gao Yu listened to his humble words, his face was slightly gentle, and he said, "The prince is polite." With polite words, the two entered the Yin'an Hall hand in hand.
The servant served the tea carefully, and Wu Zhi said with a smile: "Wu is really borrowing flowers to offer Buddha, and he is ashamed to entertain the palace marshal with the palace marshal's tea!" "After the completion of your palace, Gao Yu really sent someone to send a few packs of Wuyi rock tea, and Wu Zhi really had to admire how exquisite people were in doing things.
Gao Yu gently twisted the lid of the blue and white teacup with his right hand, and said slowly: "Xiaguan came to visit the prince this time, first, I heard that the prince is about to go to the northwest, and I have come to make a trip for the prince, and I wish the prince success." Erma......" looked up at Wu Zhi, "Xiaguan implores the prince to hand over the Long Wuyi cadres and others to seek justice for Xiaguan Dogzi." ”
Wu Zhi was stunned and said, "What does the palace marshal mean by this?" Last time, Yanai caught Long Wu...... "Speaking of this, Wu Zhi's heart moved, it won't be the last time, how could Long Wu offend Gao Yanei?"
Gao Yu saw that Wu Zhi looked confused, not as if he was fake, and said, "Isn't the prince really ignorant?" ”
Wu Zhi nodded slightly: "Please make it clear to the palace marshal." ”
Gao Yu breathed a sigh of relief, it seems that it was not done at the behest of your king, so the matter will be easy to do, "Lord Wang, yesterday Long Wu took a dry skin to beat the dog in the Moon Tower. According to the doctor, the dog's thigh was fractured, and he had to raise the moon before he could walk around on the ground, and he asked the prince to be the master of the lower officials! ”
Wu Zhi then understood, no wonder the big guy who has always been exquisite, and is good at using soft knives to kill people will be abnormal today, and put on a face with himself, the feeling is that his son was seriously injured by someone, and he can't calm down anymore! People probably have taboos that cannot be touched, it seems that Gao Yu's reverse scale is his unsuccessful son, hehe, this may come in handy in the future.
"Palace, I don't know where this Moon Tower is? How can the two sides get into action? Wu Zhi was delaying time while asking questions in his mouth, while his mind was in a hurry, thinking about countermeasures,
Gao Yu was slightly surprised, he didn't expect Wu Zhi to not know about Mochizuki Tower, and said with a smile: "The time when the prince wants to come to Tokyo is still short, and he doesn't know the humanities of the capital, Mochizuki Tower is a good place to go, a first-class place in Tokyo, and when he has time, the official will accompany the prince to go on a journey,"
Wu Zhi was dumbfounded, and he said it to the central privy envoy in a dignified manner, talking about how easy it was to visit a brothel, and he had to go with him, saying it so naturally, it really made Wu Zhi embarrassed.
Wu Zhi didn't know that it was common to accumulate prostitutes in the Song Dynasty, and there were many people in the homes of high-ranking officials and nobles in Tokyo who raised dozens or hundreds of courtesans and dancing girls. The entire atmosphere of the Song Dynasty is like this, but it is not a loss of manners.
