Chapter 108: The Transaction of the Little Man
It was dusk, Li You changed into his regular clothes, and openly walked out of the county mansion with Cui Jing, which did not arouse suspicion from all parties. Both of them were originally tasked with special tasks, and it was normal for them to collude with each other in anyone's eyes... Inspector Li led the frowning Mr. Cui on foot to the old bustard Wang in Fish Scale Lane. The shadow of the name of the tree, as soon as Li arrived at the door, he immediately alarmed the owner. I saw Wang Laobuar trotting out all the way and personally invited Li You and his party into the front hall.
It is said that since the signature character Yuan Baoer left, Wang Laobuar spent a lot of money to buy Lou Xinyue. At that time, although Lou Xinyue had Li You's song for whom the wind was exposed, her reputation had not reached this point today, and people in the industry laughed at Wang Laobustard's loss. Unexpectedly, within a few months, Lou Xinyue's name and worth chased Yao Xing'er, and Wang Laobuar turned into a discerning Qinglou Bole.
Li You sat down and ordered, "Call Miss Lou Xinyue out." β
Wang Laobuar smiled and said, "She has a guest, please change someone." β
Sure enough, there was a guest, "Can you resign?" Li You pretended to be impatient and said.
Wang Laobuar was embarrassed for a while, and walked out.
Li You was speechless, this old bustard is also sincere, he really goes, Lou Xinyue is ten taels of silver a night, and it is not worth spending on Cui Jing. Hurriedly stopped Wang Laobustard and said, "Who is the guest over there?" β
Wang Lao Bustard replied, "Master Cao." β
Who is Master Cao? Li You said: "That's it." He turned his head to Cui Jing and said, "Unfortunately, it's an acquaintance, it's not good to sweep his face, so let's change it." β
Mr. Cui, who was deeply affected and still in a state of numbness, had just reacted, and he had never seen a name worth ten taels in his life... Of course, Li You only thought that he didn't care, and soon said to Wang Laobu: "This is Mr. Cui, the attachΓ© of the Qin Mission, you can't deal with it at will, call a few good ones to come in and choose a choice for Mr. Cui, whoever dares to be free tonight, I will let her never be free!" β
Not long after, four or five warblers and swallows came in, all of whom were beautiful and sultry. The room full of fragrant Cui Jing was dazzled, and he raised his hand to look the most eye-catching.
Li You smiled: "Good choice, Miss Hongyi is also a wonderful person." β
Cui Jing was a little worried, thinking about tonight's affair, and became slightly excited. But I saw Li You wave his hand and said: "Miss Hongyi will wait in the room, I will eat and talk with this Mr. Cui alone first, and then I will ask you to wait for Mr. Cui tonight." β
Wang Laobuar agreed.
Mr. Cui, who was temporarily splashed with a little cold water, was not familiar with the door, so he let Li You arrange it. In the back room, a fine table was arranged, and the two of them took their seats. After a few glasses of wine, Li You spoke: "I will also say a few heart-wrenching words in the next, the big man fights, in fact, what does it have to do with you and me?" You and I are all little people caught in the middle, and if you can't help yourself, you will be the first to suffer if something happens, and you will be in a dilemma left and right. Don't mention those small grievances in the past, this time you and I are indeed very sympathetic. β
Cui Jing is really related, look at the food on the table of the wine in the cup, then look at the red, green, and green outside the window, and then think about the old bustard that Li You sent casually, and after running forward and running, he didn't dare to say a word about the price, and he was a little envious. He said very sadly: "You are in your youth, but you are nearly forty years old and you have achieved nothing." β
Li You watched coldly, knowing that tonight's show-off had some effect, and it was the best trick to deal with the greedy poor.
However, Mr. Cui seriously digressed, and Li You didn't come to listen to him scratch these jails, so he said again: "If Mr. Cui is Ma Yushi's henchman, and the person who dies as a confidant, even if there is danger, he should not think twice." But in my opinion, Mr. Cui doesn't seem to be able to reach this level, right? Ma Xunzhi didn't even tell you Chen Xianzun's background. β
Speaking of this, Cui Jing sighed even more, "Floating down for half a life, it is rare to meet a benefactor, and it is really unbearable to look back on it until now." β
Digressed again, Li You was not interested in listening to a man's complaints, so he quickly interrupted: "In Ma Xun's heart, you are nothing more than this, he doesn't treat you as a national soldier..."
"Do you want to call for refuge in Chen Xianzun? That must not be, in the humble power of the subordinate, can not bear this consequence. Mr. Cui said without thinking.
That was really in vain just now, Li You had no choice but to slap the case again: "This is reasonable, so you and I are in the same situation, and I can't turn my back on the county honor." Therefore, you and I need to help each other, tide over difficulties together, and not offend each other. β
Cui Jing nodded and said, "Is there such a method?" Please elaborate. β
In fact, Inspector Li's situation was even more difficult than Mr. Cui's, but he insisted on pulling Mr. Cui onto the same boat, because Chen Zhixian entrusted Li You with the important task of monitoring Ma Patrol as a confidant, and there was very little room for maneuver in the middle. Mr. Cui is different, he was originally a temporary subordinate officer found by Ma Xun, not to mention a confidant or not a henchman, it is better to be able to achieve something, and Ma Xunji will not have any special feelings if he can't succeed. At least Mr. Cui has the option to leave and return to China immediately, and the room for maneuver is always greater than that of Li Inspection, and Li You doesn't even have this opportunity.
If you are a wise person who protects your life, when you encounter this situation, you will withdraw and leave. But Mr. Cui is still in love, and he is reluctant to get to know his backers, so he is blinded by fame and fortune.
Li You said: "Patrolling the imperial history, in the final analysis, isn't it just to find trouble?" You secretly reported the movements of these horse patrols, so that you could have an explanation in front of Chen Xianzun, and you could also ask Chen Zhixian to read your good; A few days later, when Ma Xunpress was about to leave, I secretly provided some clues of sufficient weight to the case, and you said that you found out by yourself, and you can also give Ma Xunbao a deal, how about this? β
In order to patrol the duties of the imperial history, to find the problem, and not responsible for the specific treatment, just stamp the Qinchaguan defense seal to urge the division to do it. Therefore, for Ma Xun, as long as there are clues, there is no need to be specific to find out.
Mr. Cui thought about it, and it was very cost-effective to provide a few days of movement in exchange for some real clues. There is no need to hide it from the horse patrol, he knows that it will definitely be allowed. Even if Li You betrayed his trust and didn't give clues when he arrived, then Ma Patrol would not leave and continue to patrol, and he would not suffer any losses. At that time, he could also sell it to Chen Zhixian and tell the news that Li You was the leaker.
Thinking of this, Cui Jing said: "A word is a certainty!" β
Li You promised: "But don't worry. β
"What an idiot." Cui Jing thought.
"What an idiot." Li You thought.
The two looked at each other and smiled.
At this time, the minister shouted with Zhang San: "Who is it?" β
I heard a voice again: "Old decay Cao Hualin came to visit." β
Hearing this name, Li You knew who it was, it was the head of the Cao family, a famous big machine household in this county, and the Cao family owned about 200 looms, which was probably the most in the county.
