The small mansion where Yu Qiyu lived was rented by Lu Jin in advance when he knew that he was coming to the capital.

The house is in Kanjing Hutong, the house in this area is not so expensive, far away from the downtown area, it takes nearly half an hour to take a carriage to the inner city, but it is quiet, suitable for students who enter Beijing to take the exam.

Mu Yan knew that Yu Qiyu was going to Beijing to take the exam, so he specially wrote a letter to Uncle Mu and asked Uncle Mu to take care of it.

Uncle Mu learned from the letter that Yu Qiyu was Xie Yuanlang of Qingzhou this autumn, and his family also cured Mu Yan's stubborn illness, so he took this matter to heart, and sent someone to guard the city gate early to find out if there was a scholar surnamed Yu from Qingzhou Governor Kui who had entered the city.

On that day, as soon as Yu Qiyu handed the road guide to the guards at the city gate, the Mu family's servant greeted him, saying that he was ordered by his uncle Mu Chen to take Yu Qizhen to live in the house.

The uncle of the Mu family received the position of Honglu Temple Qing in the capital, and Yu Qizhen was just a cloth cloth, but he had some friendship with the second master of the Mu family, where could he really live in the house of the fourth master.

Besides, it is inconvenient to live in someone else's house, so it is better to find a house by yourself.

Yu Qiyu followed the little maid to visit the Mu Mansion, and after seeing the Mu family's uncle, he rejected the Mu family's kindness, only saying that he had entrusted someone to find a house, and it was not easy to return the rent, so the Mu family's uncle did not force it, and asked Mrs. Mu to send a few useful people to his house.

The Song woman who sprinkled and swept the courtyard was sent by the Mu family, and there were two small servants.

Yu Qizhen was inconvenient to repeatedly brush off the kindness of the Mu family's uncle, so he left the person behind.

He bowed his head slightly to the woman in the courtyard, picked up a book of righteous articles from the bookcase, and leaned against the low floor by the window and looked down.

After a while, the woman brought in hot water, made a house of hot tea, laid it down at the low table on the couch, turned around and hurried to the stove, and made a fire for the morning meal.

Yu Qiyu put down the book, soaked his cold white slender fingers in the hot water, moistened the handkerchief and wiped his face.

There was a knock on the door in the courtyard, and after a while, a footstep sounded from far and near, Yu Qiyu wiped the water droplets from his face, put the towel on the wooden frame, and looked out of the door.

Lu Jin was dressed in a cyan brocade suit, and stepped into the house, with a sword on his body unremoved, and a sleepy look on his face, he should have just returned from the night duty of Gong Weisi.

He entered the door and threw the saber in his hand on the table, washed his face with the hot water that Yu Qizhen had just used, and yawned lazily, "I'll have breakfast." ”

Yu Qiyu poured him a cup of hot tea, confessed to the little maid, asked the stove room to cook for one more person, sat back on the low floor, and picked up the book he had read before.

Lu Jin picked up the tea and rinsed his mouth, poured another cup to himself, took off the boots on his feet, and also went down, "Gu Xiaohou is making a lot of trouble, the case of Tanzhou dredging official silver embezzlement and ink is ordered to be thoroughly investigated by Dali Temple, and our Jinyi Wei is also so busy that his feet don't touch the ground, and he has been on duty in the Gongwei Division for the past few days, so I can't take care of coming to see you." ”

Yu Qiyu didn't raise his eyes from the book, but said lightly, "The Holy Lord favors the Hou Mansion of Annan, and Gu Yun has contributed to the flood discharge in Tanzhou, so there must be an explanation for this matter." ”

Lu Jin pulled a soft pillow and leaned behind him, and sneered, "The saint may not want to give an account to the Marquis of Annan, the official silver that was dredged was originally used by the saint to build a Taoist temple...... Good ability, so that the saint changed his mind. ”

Referring to the palm print of the celebrant supervisor, Lu Jin consciously lowered his name, and continued, "The saint failed to use those official funds to build a Taoist temple, but asked a small Ministry of Industry to be greedy for ink, and it is inevitable that Long Yan will be furious, and he must thoroughly investigate and vent his anger." ”

"Who is Zhou Fang, the Ministry of Industry?" Yu Qizhen raised his eyes and asked out loud.

Lu Jin said carefully, "The Ministry of Industry should be a person who is clear, Su Ri and Shen Tian and the party do not have much contact, it is also strange to say, Zhou can't let go of a small five-grade official, with great courage, how dare to be greedy for such a large amount of official silver, not only Tanzhou, Jiangbei Sihe River Basin, Minzhou, Danzhou official silver is not the same amount, the treasury allocated 1.5 million taels of silver, to the state capitals to desilt the total of less than 200,000 official silver, that group of corrupt officials are really mad! ”

Yu Qizhen squeezed the hand of the book and rubbed it gently, pondering for a while, "The people of Qingliu will not touch the official silver of dredging, you said before that the first assistant Shen Tian is currying favor with Cheng Ying, since the dredging is Cheng Ying persuaded the emperor, Shen Tian and his party will go against Cheng Ying?" ”

Lu Jin also scratched his head in confusion, he was a martial arts practitioner, and he didn't know much about the twists and turns in the court, "Then is it difficult for this official silver to grow wings and fly by himself?" Left and right with the Ministry of Industry from Beijing dredging and embankment officials can not get out of the matter, the official silver is through their hands, Zhou Fang has been imprisoned Gong Wei Division, although the Holy Dali Temple presided over the trial, but the relevant important criminals are detained in the Gong Wei Division, Xu is not at ease with the prison of the Criminal Department, it can be seen that the case will be thoroughly investigated to the end. ”

Yu Qizhen frowned, a thought faintly appeared in his heart, at this moment, Mrs. Song brought porridge and vegetables into the house, Yu Qizhen did not speak again, and went down with Lu Jin to eat.
