Chapter 43: Dalang
Gao Miao rode on the horse and said to Yu Jingning: "Tan Dalang, this guy is said to have a good friend in Yunshao Courtyard, and he often goes over there, and now he should be able to find out." β
Yu Jingning tilted his head: "How are you going to get him out?" β
"This ......" Gao Miao couldn't think of this "how" at all, so he replied indiscriminately, "It's good to just pull it directly." β
Yu Jingning raised his eyebrows and whispered to him: "You go to calm down Siti and a group of people first." β
"Yes." Gao Miao loosened the reins and smashed his palms with his fists, "Why didn't I think of it, what if there was a fight?" Of course, there are too many people to take advantage of it! β
Yu Jingning: "......"
Yunshao Courtyard is famous, outrageously big, and the imperial court has not been standing for as long as it.
When I entered Yunshao Courtyard, all I could smell was fat powder, and the so-called "leaning on red and cui" was nothing more than that. Now, the uncle of the Tan family is leaning on a girl and drinking fruit wine.
The fruit wine was brightly colored, and several people laughed again, and accidentally spilled it on their clothes.
The girl wore a red shirt with a white waist exposed, and the wine was poured on the white background.
The girl smiled and grabbed Tan Huailang, and said with a smile: "Uncle, it's all your fault, you can see that my clothes are dirty." β
Tan Huaiyu looks like Xiao's father, clear and delicate, with a slender body, but Tan Huailang was born like a dead mother, looking rich. The fat man is afraid of heat, but it is the early summer season, and he is covered with hot sweat when he moves his hands and feet casually, and several girls next to him fan him.
He snatched the girl with one hand and laughed, "What are you afraid of, a beauty should be accompanied by flowers, and I will draw a flower on the wine stain." Bring the cinnabar. β
The girl from Yunshao Courtyard came over with cinnabar with a smile, and said angrily: "Uncle loves her, why don't you paint it for me." β
"Eh" Tan Huailang wiped his mouth, as if he had smeared 1,800 catties of oil, he pouted and smiled, "Don't be busy, come one by one, and the master will draw you all the pictures." β
No sooner had he placed a stroke on the girl than he heard a tumult outside, as if the table had been toppled and the stool had been overturned.
Tan Huailang frowned, and scolded: "Stinky mixed mix, what is this going on?" With that, he was about to stand up and curse outside, when the mess outside broke in.
At the moment, a brocade guard with a flying fish pattern said loudly: "I am ordered by the emperor to ban smoking, and the idle people and others retreat quietly." β
Tan Huailang immediately shuddered-the wind has been tight recently, and the investigation is strict, he has already disposed of those big cigarette pastes, but now this spirit, he remembered that he had hidden a pair of cigarette sticks in Yunshao Courtyard, and I don't know if they put it away.
As soon as his knees weakened, he couldn't help but kneel down, and gave the young brocade guard a five-body throw, shaking like chaff.
There is a hundred households, although he is a military attachΓ©, but he himself is just a nine-quality inspection school of the Metropolitan Inspection Academy, and the official is three grades higher than him. The officials and universities are all crushed to death, let alone the shape they are in now.
He fell to the ground and called in a trembling voice: "Your Excellency......"
The brocade guard glanced at him condescendingly, and his voice was three points higher: "Why are you shaking like this, aren't you a thief?" β
Tan Huailang hurriedly shook his head and said tremblingly: "No...... There is no ......"
The young Jinyi guard was angry, pointed at Tan Huailang and said: "This person is suspicious, let's take him down for interrogation first, you guys, don't be stunned, go to the next room and search it." β
Tan Huailang had never seen such a big battle except for seeing Dongchang escort his younger brother down, so he hurriedly begged for mercy: "My lord...... I've recruited them all...... No, no, no, my lord, I was wronged! β
This shocking begging for mercy almost made the brocade guard laugh, he couldn't help laughing, and once again gave the order: "Gagged him and put him down." β
A group of people left in Yunshao Courtyard for half an hour, and they really found out that a lot of them had something to do with opium.
Yu Jingning, who was leaning on the door frame, pursed her lips and said in her heart, if opium is really harmful, and he is in danger of losing his life, he should stay by his side and take another breath.
It should indeed be banned!
Just as he was thinking about it, Gao Miao came down from upstairs with a bang-the young Jinyi guard who had just caught Tan Huailang was him. He laughed as he ran: "I said Brother Ning, your fake public and private trick is really amazing, I didn't expect to be able to control Tan Huailang with the name of this 'inventory' that was just arranged." β
Yu Jingning almost gave him so much anger that he closed his breath, what is called "fake public and private", he is not afraid of ruining the reputation of Jinyiwei if it spreads!
The group escorted a few regulars from Yunshao Courtyard back to the Zhenfu Division.
Because he wanted to "fake the public and help the private", he tried Tan Huailang first.
Gao Miao stood with his arms crossed, and the corners of his mouth were smiling: "Okay, you just said what you want to recruit with me, and now you can do all the tricks." β
Tan Huailang: "The villain is wronged. β
"Wronged?" Gao Miao was like a trick, took out several cigarette guns in a row, and asked him with a smile, "Which one is yours?" β
Gao Miao's heart was weak, so he immediately went to take a look, his eyes looked at the cigarette guns a few times, but he didn't find his own, and just wanted to answer: "No." β
At this time, Yu Jingning, who had been standing aside, opened his mouth for the first time: "If you haven't used this thing at all, you don't have to look for it, you are already a trick." β
Gao Miao laughed happily: "Rammed goods, there is no yours here." β
Now that Tan Huailang knows the stakes, he is even more like malaria, and he can't even say a word of rebuttal.
Seeing him like this, Yu Jingning was so angry that he punched him on the bridge of his nose, and the nosebleed flew down 3,000 feet like a waterfall. Tan Huailang had his hands tied, and he couldn't wipe it, so he had to bear it, and heard Yu Jingning say angrily: "Your brother is now in the edict prison, and you are still looking for a girl to smoke in Yunshao Courtyard?" I really don't know how the heart and liver grow! β
punched, but Yu Jingning seemed to calm down, and said coldly: "Your Tan family has two sons, your eldest son is incompetent and has not made any achievements, but the second son stands out." A stupid person like you, I am afraid that my brother will go too far in the future, and your father should take the house in his hands, and now this is looking forward to his death? β
The tone was calm, but what he said was full of heart-wrenching words.
He spoke again and sneered: "If your family doesn't have Erlang's help, relying on people like you, even if the Tan family takes the boat of Qiu Anren of the Lin family and Tian family, they will be defeated sooner or later!" β
Tan Huailang was seven or eight years older than Yu Jingning, and now he was counted down like this, but he didn't dare to speak, only listened to his reprimand.
Yu Jingning paced a few steps in front of Tan Huailang, and said as he walked: "Originally, I planned to persuade you a few words, so that your own family can also think of ways to save your brother, and by the way, persuade your father." He stopped, resisted the urge to spit on Tan Huailang, and said coldly, "But now that I see your virtue, I think you can only say some nonsense like 'how did I persuade my father', so you can stay in prison and wait for your father to fish you two out!" β
