As soon as he entered the cottage, someone led him to the main hall, and Tang Yi knew that he was probably going to see Liu Lin'an. Sure enough, when I entered the main hall, I saw a middle-aged man with a big belly sitting on the main seat, looking like a very fierce person, he was eating wine and meat in a big gulp.

"Boss, the people from the Xu Mansion are here." The young man who led him in the door bowed to Liu Lin'an, his face full of respect.

"Hmm." Liu Linan nodded casually, in his opinion, the wine and meat in front of him attracted him even more.

Seeing that he didn't care, the young man said again: "Boss, it's Steward Xu's nephew who is here today."

Now Liu Linan finally reacted, he raised his head, saw Tang Yi at a glance, and was stunned for a moment, this Steward Xu was confused, such an important matter actually sent a child over.

His sharp eyes swept back and forth on Tang Yi a few times, and his cold voice asked, "Why did Steward Xu send you over, is there no one in the Xu Mansion?"

"Back to Lord Liu Zhai, the uncle is sick, and he is not at ease when he sends someone else, so he asked me to bring someone over. I'm young, but I'm measured, so don't worry. Tang Yi's face was indifferent, and his tone was smooth and orderly, without showing a trace of timidity.

"Hey, look at what this kid said, after seeing it, there will be a big future, no wonder Manager Xu called you." Liu Linan was very satisfied with his performance, and even liked this bold boy a little. The people next to him also chimed in, saying that he was a smart child.

Therefore, Tang Yi's non-stage fright answer once again dispelled Liu Linan's concerns about him. Under Liu Lin'an's orders, Tang Yi was taken to the small treasury of the cottage. Looking at the full treasury of gold, silver and jewelry, Tang Yi was stunned for a few seconds, he has grown so big, and he has never seen so much money, this Liu Linan actually robbed so many things, he really should be cleared.

The money given to the Xu Mansion has already been decorated, and it can be packed just waiting for someone from the Xu family to come. Tang Yi glanced at it, there were three large boxes of jewelry, and Xu Shouzong was also greedy.

After everything was packed, Tang Yi went to the front hall. According to the previous practice, he should have left as soon as he got his things, but not today, he had to find a way to stay and wait until it was dark to act. Just when he was thinking about how to stay, Liu Lin'an gave him a chance first.

"Little brother, it's getting late, and it's not safe for you to travel with these things, why don't you stay here tonight first, and you will go back early tomorrow morning?" Liu Linan asked, he really felt that he was destined for this kid, and he was so smart, if he could pull him under his command, wouldn't his strength be greatly increased, and then Tang Laoqi would not be his opponent.

Tang Yi didn't guess Liu Lin'an's fancy intestines, he felt that this was a good reason, but he couldn't show it too obviously, so he said with some embarrassment: "However, the uncle said that he must go back today."

"Hey, it's okay, I'll fix the book immediately, send someone to Xu's mansion, inform the reason, and ensure that Steward Xu won't blame you." Liu Linan tried his best to appease him.

Tang Yi saw that the time was almost up, so he nodded and said, "Okay, but I asked my little servant to send the letter back, and I don't feel at ease when others send it." If the people from Lin'an Village sent the letter to Xufu, wouldn't it be a surprise.

Liu Lin'an saw that he nodded and agreed, just happy, who would care who was going to deliver the letter, so he immediately nodded and agreed. Tang Yi was relieved to see that he could stay, and a faint smile appeared on his face.

The sky soon darkened, Lin'an Village was very lively tonight, in order to welcome the arrival of Tang Yi and others, Liu Lin'an specially ordered the kitchen to serve big fish and meat.

In the big kitchen, Old Chef Zhang was cooking his food in a hurry. At this time, Zhao Zhixiong, the attendant beside Tang Yi, walked in leisurely, he glanced at the food on the table, and then walked next to Chef Zhang, and said with a smile: "Master, why are you cooking here alone?"

Old man Zhang glanced at him, saw that he was wearing the clothes of the Xu Mansion family, and said angrily: "Those little rabbit cubs don't know where to go crazy, and they can only see them when they are eating." Hmph!"

"Hey, you're working so hard. I'll help you. Zhao Zhixiong was about to start when he said that, but Old Man Zhang immediately stopped him and shouted: "Hey, don't, you're a guest, I don't dare to let you do it, when the owner of the village knows, he won't have to pick my skin."

Old man Zhang pushed him aside, and then turned around to stir-fry again.

Zhao Zhixiong frowned, looked around, and then said: "Hey, by the way, our little boy loves to eat crucian carp, you can make a few more."

"Crucian carp? Oh, my fish is still in the pool. Old man Zhang exclaimed, why did he forget the crucian carp.

Zhao Zhixiong immediately echoed and said, "Then you have to hurry up and get it, it's going to be eaten soon."

After being reminded by him, Old Man Zhang immediately put down the spatula, just took two steps and turned back, and said to Zhao Zhixiong: "Little brother, please show me the dishes, I will be back immediately."

"Hey, no problem." Zhao Zhixiong agreed, and Old Man Zhang ran out in a hurry.

Seeing him running away, Zhao Zhixiong instantly faded his smile, he took out a packet of medicinal powder from his sleeve, walked quickly to a pile of wine jars, looked left and right, and after making sure that there was no one, he quickly sprinkled the medicinal powder into several wine jars. After the matter was done, he stuffed the paper into his sleeve again, and then pretended that nothing had happened, and continued to sit here waiting for Old Man Zhang to come back.

After a while, Old Man Zhang came back with two crucian carp. Zhao Zhixiong said with a smile: "Oh, these two fish look very fresh and fat, the little boy will definitely like it."

"Uh-huh, little brother, thank you, you can be busy with your go." Old man Zhang took the fish and started to deal with it, he had to hurry up and make the fish.

"Oh, okay, then I'll go first." After Zhao Zhixiong finished speaking, he turned around and left, the matter was done, and there was no need for him to stay here.

Half an hour later, it was completely dark, and the dinner party began.

Liu Lin'an sat on the main seat, Tang Yi sat next to him, and those family members were not qualified to sit in the main hall, so they sat outside with the little bandits in the village and ate wine and food.

"How old is Xiaoyi this year?" Liu Linan asked very kindly.

"Ten years old." Tang Yi replied, he casually swept around, everyone had wine in hand, and his heart was much more relieved.

"Oh? If you can take on this great responsibility at the age of ten, you will definitely be able to do a lot in the future. Liu Lin'an changed his words as he spoke, and asked, "Have you ever thought about coming out to do a big career?" Stay in Xu Mansion all day long, how much success can you make with your uncle. ”

As soon as Tang Yi heard this, he knew the meaning of his words, and he suddenly had an idea in his heart, he pretended to be helpless and said: "Alas, I also want to go out to do a big career, but the uncle doesn't allow it, he tells me to follow him well all day long, and serve Xu Junshou well in the future."

"Huh? A good man is determined in all directions, how can he serve others? Liu Lin'an was happy when he saw that he really wanted to come out and do things, and immediately said: "If you trust me, you might as well come to my cottage, and I promise to take you to do a great career in the future."

"Really?" Tang Yi looked excited, "Don't hide it from Master Liu Zhai, in fact, I have always admired you, I have long wanted to follow you, but my uncle is unwilling." ”

Hearing his praise, Liu Linan got even more carried away, and laughed and said: "Good boy, you will follow me in the future, I will talk about your uncle, you can rest assured."

"Thank you, owner. Come, Xiaoyi toasts you with tea instead of wine. Tang Yi raised the teacup, and when Liu Lin'an saw this, he immediately raised the wine bowl and drank it boldly. After that, the big guys talked and laughed together for a long time, the dishes were finished, the wine was drunk, and then they went back to the house to sleep one after another.

At three o'clock, there was a sudden explosion in the dark and quiet night sky, and then the mountain gate of Lin'an Village was opened from the inside, and a group of black-clothed people rushed in with well-trained weapons in their hands. After a while, I saw the flames in the cottage, and the sound of swords clashing one after another.

"Owner, we've been tricked." As soon as Liu Lin'an rushed out of the house, a seriously injured man fell down in front of him, and he lost his breath after saying this.

He looked at the firelight of the village and the black-clothed people who came out of nowhere, and was completely blindfolded for a while, what was going on, how could the good ones be attacked?

Just as he was thinking about what was wrong, Tang Yi slowly walked towards him with a sword, followed by three or five black-clothed people.

"...... you?" Liu Lin'an's eyes widened, his face full of disbelief, how could it be him? It turned out that he brought these people.

"Who the hell are you?" No matter how stupid he was at this time, he knew that this young man could not be from the Xu family.

Tang Yi smiled coldly and said, "Thanks to the wrong love of the owner of the village, Tang Yi is not the Xu family, I am the person of Princess Jinyang."

"Princess Jinyang?" Liu Linan was even more surprised, he had heard of this Huayang princess, and as soon as she came to Yangzhou, she put Xu Shouzong under house arrest, and her ability was not small. Unexpectedly, this Tang Yi turned out to be her subordinate.

"I have no grudge against Princess Jinyang, why do you want to do this to us?" Liu Lin'an looked angry, no matter how capable Princess Jinyang was, as long as he provoked him, he would not let it go.

"You occupy the mountains as bandits, kill the people, collude with Xu Shouzong, seek money and kill people. Now, Princess Pyle and others have come to clean up Lin'an Village and eliminate harm for the people. Tang Yi's words were sonorous and powerful, not only was he shocked, but everyone present was shocked by his powerful aura. Those black-clothed men dressed as guards of the Six Counties seemed to understand a little bit why they chose him as the leader of tonight's operation, he was not afraid of danger, calm and calm, and it was completely the character of a leader.

"So what, do you think you can ......" Liu Linan just wanted to attack them, but suddenly felt weak and dizzy.

"You, you poisoned the food?" After thinking about it, he could only have a problem with the wine and food tonight, so he was weak now.

"It's just that it's weak, and it won't kill you." Tang Yi replied casually, this soft tendon is still what he asked for from his father. The princess told him that he could use medicine to reduce their combat effectiveness, but he couldn't kill them, so he came up with this method.

"Bastard!" Liu Linan wanted to step forward and grab him, but he was immediately taken down by the man in black. Seeing his resentful look, Tang Yi only snorted contemptuously, said "take away" to the man in black, and then turned to leave.

However, in the time of a cup of tea, all the mountain bandits in Lin'an Village were taken down by the men in black

Yi Chu stood in front of the cottage, looking at the fire-filled village, with a satisfied smile on his face. Seeing him standing here, Tang Yi hurriedly trotted over and said excitedly: "Mr. Yi, there are one hundred and six people in Lin'an Village, and none of them have missed the net."

"Okay, Tang Yi, you have made a great contribution this time." Yi Chu looked at him, his eyes flashed with approval, he was not mistaken, this young man would be the pillar of the country in the future.

"Thank you, Mr. for giving Tang Yi this opportunity." Tang Yi was very respectful to him, except for Princess Jinyang, the one he admired most was this Mr. Yi.

"By the way, sir," Tang Yi took out a booklet from his bosom, "this is what I found from Liu Lin'an's house, which records all the transactions between him and Xu Shouzong. ”

Yi Chu took it, looked at it for a while, and then said with some excitement: "Great, with this, Xu Shouzong's death penalty is inevitable."

The next day, the news of Lin'anzhai disappearing overnight quickly spread all over the streets and alleys of Yangzhou, and the leaders of those small mountain bandits began to be frightened, and at this time there was news that Tang Laoqi returned to Princess Jinyang, and the small cottages couldn't sit still, one by one to Tang Laoqi, and began to return to Princess Jinyang, in just two days, more than half of the cottages have returned to the official government, and those who are still hesitating cottages, after seeing that the cottages after returning to Shun are treated well, they are also shunned. Therefore, the problem of mountain bandits that has plagued Yangzhou for several years, with the efforts of Zong Zhengjin and others, it was solved in only half a month, and the reputation of Princess Jinyang was very dry, and the people of Yangzhou began to expect this little princess to lead them to a new future.

The brochure obtained from Liu Lin'an was sent to the royal capital by Zong Zhengjin in the form of a secret letter, and because it was a secret letter from the princess, it went directly to the emperor. After Zong Zhenghao saw the booklet, Long Yan was furious and immediately ordered Xu Shouzong to be killed, but it was too late for the Xu family to stop it.

Xu Shouzong and his cronies were eventually beheaded, and since then, the stumbling blocks that hinder the development of Yangzhou have been removed, and Zong Zhengjin led the six counties to embark on the road of developing Yangzhou......
