Chapter 459: Ding Shoufu (7)

"Mr. Cai, why do I think something is wrong, the adult seems to be ...... with the woman named Red Sleeves" Guo Xiaochao observed keenly, and soon found that there was something wrong with the expressions of Meng Yan and Nalan Red Sleeves.

"Adults have their own opinions, and we listen to them." Cai Jin said calmly, he also saw some clues.

Guo Xiaochao also nodded, Meng Yan has a much older stability than his age, not to mention that there are so many people here, at least there should be no danger.

"Red-sleeved girl, you can't do this, you don't do you any good by doing this, it will put you in danger." Meng Yan said to Nalan Hongsleeve.

"There's no way, I can only make this decision, don't worry, I won't hurt you, I won't kill you, and after we enter the city, I will give you back your freedom." Nalan said with red sleeves.

"If you hold this official hostage like this, not only the subordinates of this official, but also the soldiers guarding the city of Chongwenmen will not let you go." Meng Yan said, "If you want to enter the city, you have to let me go." ”

"No, if we let you go, what if you regret asking someone to arrest us?" Nalan Hong's sleeves were almost pressed against Meng Yan's chest to speak.

The two of them almost hugged each other.

Nalan Red Sleeves' men were also dumbfounded, and Nalan Red Sleeves had never let any man get close.

If you want to say that there is, that is, her fourteen-year-old nephew, who is notorious, and no one has dared to marry her so far, then naturally no one will provoke her.

Now he actually took the initiative to throw himself into his arms, he is still a Han man, it seems that he is still from a thousand households?

Could it be that this is really the noble person of Nalan Red Sleeves?

"You've figured it out. They won't be suspicious for a while, but they won't be able to do it for a long time, and if they rush up, I won't be able to order them to stop. Meng Yan said.

"You are their commander, don't they listen to you?"

"I have a thousand households, and there are not 1,000 but 800 officials in Beijing who are bigger than me, who do you say they listen to?" Meng Yan smiled lightly, not caring at all that his life was in the hands of others.

"If I let you go, are you really willing to help us into the city?" Nalan Hongsleeve gritted her teeth and asked, she also knew. That's all she has to offer. If you really fight, you really won't be an opponent.

"Believe it or not!" Meng Yan rolled his eyes and said.

"You swear to God!"

"Do you want me to say it to their face?" Meng Yan smiled, is this woman dizzy.

"If you don't swear, it's a big deal. I'm going to pull you on my back even if I die. Nalan Red Sleeves said fiercely.

"You're so ruthless. All right. I swear that if the red-sleeved girl lets go of the official, the official will help her enter the city. Otherwise, there will be five thunderstorms in the sky! Meng Yan lowered his head slightly and whispered in Nalan Hongsleeve's ear.

Nalan Red Sleeves only felt a trace of warmth burrowing into his collar, and a strange feeling instantly spread from the bottom of his heart, and his crystal clear earlobes suddenly became pink and charming.

Meng Yan smelled a hint of his daughter's body fragrance, and there was an indescribable taste, so he couldn't help but stretch out the tip of his tongue and lick it on the tip of his ear.

"You, what are you doing...... Nalan Red Sleeves pushed Meng Yan hard, but found that he was already being held in Meng Yan's arms, and the wrist against his chest was numb, his hand was empty, and the dagger seemed to be gone.

"The red-sleeved girl must be tired from riding, so let's do it, the official will vouch for the red-sleeved girl, if something happens in the future, the official will be responsible, Captain Xiao, what do you say?" Meng Yan laughed and hid the dagger in his sleeve.

"Since Master Meng is a guarantor, it is naturally no problem." Xiao Tianlai breathed a sigh of relief, Meng Yan is the acting director of the Inspection Department, he is qualified to be a guarantee, anyway, someone has someone to guarantee, and if something happens in the future, he can't be blamed.

"Okay, since Captain Xiao also agreed, then this red-sleeved girl and her men should have no problem entering the city, right?"

"No problem, but I have to go through some formalities to get into the city." Xiao Tianlai said.

"This is as it should be, and Captain Xiao is also acting according to the rules." Meng Yan nodded, he didn't want to have a reputation for flying and domineering.

Xiao Tianlai breathed a sigh of relief, isn't this "officialdom butcher" as scary as the legend, he is still very easy to speak.

"By the way, the goods entering Chongwenmen have to pay taxes, Captain Xiao, you can collect as much tax as you want." Meng Yan added.

"Yes, yes, what Lord Meng said is that according to the tax system of the Ming Dynasty, how much tax do you want to collect?"

"It's your business, why are you asking me?" Meng Yan snorted.

"This ......" Xiao Tianlai was a little embarrassed.

"Forget it, I don't embarrass you, the red-sleeved girl's goods are worth a lot of money, how about a price of 10,000 taels of silver?" Meng Yan Road.

"Ten thousand taels?"

"Do you think the official has estimated less?" Meng Yan asked.

"No, no, it's okay to listen to Lord Meng, 10,000 taels is 10,000 taels!" Xiao Tianlai nodded hurriedly.

"Then let's calculate the tax rate according to the tax rate!"

"10,000 taels of silver, 30 draws 1, that is 333 taels of 33 taels, in this way, how about 300 taels of red-sleeved girls?" Xiao Tianlai said.

"Red-sleeved girl, you can't afford not to pay the goods tax for entering the city, this official can guarantee you to enter the city, but he can't exempt you from this tax." Meng Yan said with a smile.

"Wenqin, pay taxes!"

"Yes, Third Miss!" A woman behind the red sleeves stepped forward and handed the silver to Xiao Tianlai.

"Thank you girl with red sleeves, then Xiao will accept it!" Xiao Tianlai took the silver and weighed it, this bag of silver was at least four hundred taels, and it was obvious that the extra one hundred taels were rewarded to them, which could be regarded as bribing them and letting them talk less and more.

Meng Yan also saw it, he didn't break it, this water is clear, there are no fish, even if these people take the money, the big head can't turn them over, and they will hand it over.

This Chongwenmen Tax Division is a rare fat difference, and ordinary people are not qualified to sit in this position at all.

"Red-sleeved girl, can you go into the city?"

"Thank you for your help. Red Sleeves is grateful, and if you have a place to get Red Sleeves in the future, you can just say it. Nalan Red Sleeves turned over and got on the horse, showing a neat and heroic demeanor.

"Red-sleeved girl, this official is your guarantor, you should always let this official know where you are going, right?" Meng Yan asked.

"Shaanxi Lane, Donglai Old Store!"

The old store in the east is interesting!

A smile appeared on the corner of Meng Yan's mouth, turned around, and turned over to get on his horse. Led people quickly through guò Chongwen Gate. Return to the city.

"Master, tea!" Back in the yazhong, Meng Yan's eldest apprentice, Cao Shaoqing, came in with the brewed tea.

After the people from the Craftsman Division came out of the Craftsman Division, it didn't make sense for Cao Shaoqing to stay inside. I simply brought it out. Be a small follower to Meng Yan in the Yamen of the Inspection Division. It's okay to make a cup of tea, run errands or something, and mainly study and practice martial arts.

"Go. Call Uncle Fan over, I have something to discuss with him. ”

"Come on, I'll go!" Being able to have the opportunity to go out, Cao Shaoqing's eyes lit up, and when he came back, he could stop by to see his father, aunt and grandmother.

Meng Yan also knew that Cao Bao was now on an errand in the East Factory, and Cao Yun was from the girl's family, so she couldn't get out of the door, and she couldn't come casually to the Yamen of the Inspector Division.

Therefore, it can only be Cao Shaoqing who goes back to see them by himself.

"Mr. Cai, Xiaochao, if you have any questions, just ask, I see that you haven't opened your mouth since you entered the city." Meng Yan Road.

"My lord, the girl called the Red Sleeves is of unknown origin, you give them a guarantee and let them enter the city, if any basket is poked out, you will be in trouble."

"Although Dongchang now sees us as turtle grandsons, the eunuchs are extremely forbearing, they must be hiding in the dark to find our mistakes, and then kill with one blow!" Guo Xiaochao also echoed.

"Have you ever wondered what would happen if you shut them out?" Meng Yan picked up the teacup and took a sip slightly.

"This ......" Both of them were stunned, this reverse thinking, they didn't expect it yet.

"They enter the city in such fresh clothes and angry horses, for fear that they will not be watched, do you think they seem to be here to make trouble?" Meng Yan said, "Taking a step back, even if they really have a purpose to enter the city, is it in a place where we can't see it or is it more reassuring right under our eyes and noses?" ”

"What adults are very worried about is that although adults have taken risks, they have also minimized the danger, every move of these women outside the customs is under our surveillance, they just want to do something, and we can also react very much." Cai Jindao.

"My lord, are we sending someone to keep an eye on the old store in Donglai?"

"No, go and call Dong Qianli over, and you'll know as soon as you ask." Meng Yan smiled slightly, Dong Qianli had almost been cleaned up, and this old Donglai store was about to become an intelligence stronghold of Jinyiwei.

There is no way, Dong Qianli wants to regain his freedom, and if he lives the previous days, he has to cooperate with Jinyiwei, otherwise there will be no good fruit to eat.

"I'll go." Guo Xiaochao said.

"Xiaochao, if you go, wouldn't it be too much to exalt him, just find someone to call him." Meng Yan said with a smile.

"Okay." Guo Xiaochao didn't say a word, then turned around and went out to make arrangements.

"Mr. Cai, I'm tired today, you should go home early." Meng Yan instructed Cai Jin to say.

"Well, then I'll go first." Cai Jin nodded.

Donglai old shop.

"The shopkeeper, the shopkeeper, live in the hotel!"

"Coming, coming, guest officer......" The guy saw Nalan Hongsleeve's face clearly, and was shocked for a moment, and his words hit his tongue, and he couldn't say anything.

"Xiao Shunzi, what's the matter, don't go and help the guests lead the horses and unload the goods!" Dong Qianli walked out of it, and when he saw his guy staring at the guest stupidly, he couldn't help but feel angry and kicked in the back.

"Ouch!" The guy was caught off guard, and his knees knelt in front of Nalan Red Sleeves with a pop.

"Bastard ......" Dong Qianli was about to scold the guy, when he suddenly glanced at Nalan Hong's face, and was suddenly startled.

"Three, three......" Dong Qianli stammered.

"It's okay to call Miss Three, Vulture, I have long heard that you have opened a shop in the capital, and the business is quite prosperous, I have never been here, I am here today, what's the matter, where are you going to let me live?" Nalan Red Sleeves stepped on the mink red boots, and the leather whip in his hand gestured, and walked into the old store in Donglai and asked. (To be continued......)
