Chapter 52: Incense Making

"From now on, the man who falls in a stick of incense will be punished by a hundred; Whoever falls in half an hour is punished with fifty sentences. Whoever falls in an hour shall be punished with fifty lashes, and all shall be expelled from the barracks, and shall not be hired again for everlasting life. ”

"What's the use of recruiting new people? Don't you have to start from scratch? Li Wei turned to Zhang Gui, put down the drumsticks, and slowly made it to the seat to drink tea, "I think there are too many soldiers, it is better to lay off some useless people and select those who can be used for training." ”

Jang Gyu sat in his seat, sweating like rain.

When An Shanxu returned to Chang'an, he told him that he must not train officers and soldiers, and that he should not let King Qin clean up the water thieves and cut off the military route of the southern country.

In this situation, if he helped King Qin, An Shanxu would not let him go. But if he helped An Shanxu, King Qin would forget it, and it would not be a trivial matter to anger Tianwei.

……

"Sir, Your Highness has news."

"Sir, there's news about Le Niangzi."

"Which one to listen to, sir?"

Jimo listened to two pigeons in his hand, cooing. He untied the letter tied to his leg, released the pigeon, and asked Song Jinzhi for advice.

"Do what you think." Song Jinzhi said.

"Yes." Jimo agreed, opened one of the volumes, and read, "Le Niangzi to the port, show grace to Dong Da, and return." Qijiazhai medicine girl harmed the lady and beheaded her. ”

"Sure enough, I went to the port." Song Jinzhi didn't blame Jimo for not distinguishing between priority and priority, and took a sip of tea, "What about King Qin?" ”

Jimo opened another scroll of fingers, paused for a moment, and said: "What King Qin means is that you have to listen to the preparation of the people of the Feng Pavilion, and the Yangzhou prefect can be punished, and the officers and soldiers are not available. ”

"He's laid back." Song Jinzhi leaned back gently, raised his hand and pressed his temple, "Aren't you afraid that the plan will fail, and the Yan family will take over the Yitang in an all-round way?" ”

Jimo was not worried, and said with a smile: "King Qin has always trusted Mr. 100%. ”

The king of Qin went to Yangzhou this time, I am afraid that the emperor noticed that Zhang Gui was wrong, and this move was intended to confiscate Zhang Gui and let Bai Chongzhen Yangzhou.

As far as the Yitang is concerned, they have been wandering among the people, and there are very few government forces. This is a great opportunity to integrate forces into Yangzhou's bureaucracy.

Jimo was about to say something more, but the boy who guarded the door came up again to report: "Jimo, there is a lady looking for you outside the door." ”

"Who?" Jimo frowned, "I don't know any lady." ”

It can't be that Le Niangzi just did something serious and came over to trouble Mr. again, right?

"The lady said......" said the boy, "her name is Lan Cui, and she is the maid of the Lady of Le." ”

Although she claims to be a maid, she is clearly a little lady when she is dressed.

……

Lan Cui waited for a long time before seeing Jimo running down angrily.

Waiting for Jimo to stand firm, just as he was about to open his mouth to ask, Lan Cui first said what he meant: "I'm sorry for the sudden disturbance." The lady sent me to buy things, saying that if I was short of manpower, I could come to the gentleman who took the meaning of the house. ”

"The lady asked me to buy spices, I bought most of the ingredients, but I couldn't find a few of them, I don't know ......"

As he spoke, Lan Cui handed over the note. A large stack of lists, which she marked down to the only four herbs, were all things that she couldn't find after asking dozens of them.

Jimo took it and glanced at it. Lan Cui on the side was still chattering: "Le Niangzi said, if the master helps, she and the master will get three or seven points of the money, she is seven, and Mr. is three." ”

"Got it." Jimo almost rolled his eyes, "My husband will ask for your lady's money?" You tell me what Le Niangzi is doing with these herbs, and I'll ask Mr. for you. ”

"Le Niangzi said, you want to use them to make incense?"

"Incense?" Jimo's eyes almost fell out, where did this Le Niang come from, and she still knows how to mix fragrances? Do you plan to sell it after you have adjusted it?

When he said it, Jimo took the list, went to find Song Jinzhi, and repeated the meaning of Yin Le.

"Sir, what Lady Le means is that if you give her these. In the future, the money she gets from selling spices will be three for her and seven. ”

Naturally, Jimo did not miss Jimo's last sentence.

"Sir, these materials are rare in the market, but there is a surplus in Puliuge, do you want to give them to the lady?"

Song Jinzhi pondered for a moment and nodded slightly: "Give it to her according to the amount that the student wants, and it will be regarded as if I gave her." ”

The current implication is that he will not take her money.

Jimo ran out and rubbed for a long time before moving back.

"Sir." He said embarrassedly, "I told Miss Lancui, but Miss Lancui said that her lady said that eating people has a short mouth, and you must not ask for the master's things in vain." Therefore, I approved Le Niangzi's proposal. ”

There are more important things at the moment, and Song Jinzhi doesn't need to bother with a few words from Le Niangzi. Hearing this, he nodded slightly: "It's a light word, then do what she says, you wait to collect the money." ”

……

When Lan Cui successfully came back with two large boxes of spices, Yin Le was holding the gold waist card given by Yuan Huan and painting and painting.

When she picked up the paper, Lan Cui saw clearly that the pattern on the paper was spelled together with the waist card, which was the word "Dong".

The waist card given by Yuan Huan is really from the Dong family.

No wonder Yin Le saw this waist card for the first time, stared at the ghost drawing talisman for a long time, and couldn't see the reason.

It turned out to be just half a word.

But after knowing this, for some reason, she inexplicably contradicted this token.

She remembered clearly that in her previous life, Song Yu had a jade plate tied around her waist, and a word was also engraved on it.

When she woke up from the mass grave, she had such a jade plaque in her arms. It's ridiculous that he kept the jade plate close to him, but gave it to her at that time.

"Miss." Seeing Yin Le staring at the half word in a daze, Lan Cui couldn't help but shout at her.

Yin Le broke free from his memories and was covered in cold sweat.

In the previous life, when there was no one in the night, she made incense with her hands, and her eyes were full of scenes of smashing the jade waist card.

"Got it?" Yin Le looked back and smiled, only to see Lan Cui catch up a few steps forward and bend down with concern, "Lady, are you okay?" ”

Yin Le shook his head and looked away, but saw another figure appear at the door, and couldn't help but smile: "Pu Hong is also back?" Did you find anything? ”

Pu Hong looked at Lan Cui, Lan Cui waved his hand knowingly and stepped aside.

Pu Hong also knew that her matter was more important, so she took a step forward and opened her mouth directly: "Miss, the second room of the Yin family may have colluded with the Yangzhou water thieves." ”

Yangzhou is close to the water, there are no mountain bandits, and water thieves are endless.

"What a coincidence." Yin Le couldn't help but hold his forehead, "Why are there two of them, they are all related to water thieves." ”

Pu Pu's face was inexplicable, and he looked at Lan Cui. Lan Cui didn't know much about it, and he didn't know what to do.

"Keep an eye on Yin Minglu." Yin Le ordered, "If you can, find out the power of that gang of water thieves." ”
