Chapter 319 Yangzhou

Heavy rain fell for most of the time, and the wind and rain outside the house were only a little, and the air quality improved a lot with a heavy rain, but the road was still seriously muddy.

Song Zhiying looked at the rain outside, his face was worried, and said: "This tea shop is only five miles away from Yangzhou City, and now it is raining, and I don't know when the rain will stop. ”

Wang Jun turned his head to look at Zhao Ling'er and asked, "Ling'er, what do you think?" ”

Zhao Ling'er noticed the nervous expressions of Li Xiaoyao and the three of them smiled, like a fairy who was left behind and independent, and did not eat fireworks in the world, which made people fall for it, and said: "Brother Wang Jun, these people are sleeping outside, and Ling'er also wants to enter the city earlier and change some tastes." ”

Anu clenched his fists, made a puffing gesture in front of him, and then hugged Zhao Ling'er and said affectionately: "Princess Ling'er is the best, Anu likes the princess the most." ”

Wang Jun smiled, looked at Song Zhiying, and said, "It's troublesome for the head of the Song family." ”

"If you don't bother, don't bother, if you don't dislike people, people will feel very proud." Song Ji-young replied tactfully. "The big guy has rested enough, let's go into town."

Most of the people in the tea shop replied in unison, "Yes, the owner." ”

The carriages were filled with fabrics, dyes and other items, and the outermost layer was wrapped with linen cloth to prevent the rain from getting wet, and at the same time played the banner of "Weihai Dart Bureau".

Song Zhiying held an umbrella in one hand and personally pulled a richly decorated carriage to the door of the tea shop, stood respectfully by the door, and said, "Your Excellency, please get in the car." ”

Wang Jun led Zhao Ling'er to board the carriage and entered the carriage, Anu also followed into the carriage, Li Xiaoyao, and Lin Yueru sat outside the carriage to impulsively escort.

Song Zhiying ran to the back carriage to ride, stood on the carriage and shouted, "Enter the city." ”

Immediately, the convoy withstood the wind and rain, leaving deep ruts on the ground one by one, and rushed to Yangzhou City.

Because Li Xiaoyao was not worried about Song Zhiying's manpower, the coachman dared to leave, so the carriage is now driven by Li Xiaoyao himself.

After about a quarter of an hour, Li Xiaoyao could no longer stand the quiet atmosphere on the carriage, opened the topic, and said, "Brother Wang, I don't think that Song Zhiying is like a good person, you should be a little better." ”

"Thank you for the reminder, but you are wrong about this, Song Zhiying is not a person, just an ambitious businessman.

But I am not afraid that he is ambitious, as long as he has the ability, I will give him a big enough stage. Wang Jun laughed.

Li Xiaoyao found that Wang Jun had paid attention in his heart, and he no longer persuaded him, he had already warned Wang Jun, and it was his business to listen or not, and said: "Brother Wang has a good idea in his heart." ”

Zhao Ling'er noticed the gloom in Li Xiaoyao's eyes, and estimated that he suggested to Wang Jun for the first time, but he was not happy when Wang Jun refused, and quietly touched Wang Jun with his elbow and mouthed at Li Xiaoyao.

Wang Jun saw the loss in Li Xiaoyao's eyes, patted Li Xiaoyao's shoulder, and said with a smile: "Xiaoyao, do you think I'm a fool?"

Don't forget that the snow yarn of the splendid cloth village is a tribute, and I naturally need to check Song Zhiying's bottom clearly, so I already know what kind of person he is. ”

After a pause, he said: "I have received your concern, Xiaoyao, you have never been in contact with officialdom, and there are some things that you don't quite understand." I'm not afraid that the people under my command are ambitious, I'm afraid that they don't do things and blindly covet pleasure, people like Qin Yong are the tools I use to kill chickens and set an example. ”

Li Xiaoyao looked confused, nodded as if he didn't understand, and said: "It seems that I am indeed not suitable for mixing officialdom, and I am still comfortable in the rivers and lakes." ”

An hour later, the convoy finally arrived in Yangzhou City, and the wind and rain on it became stronger again.

I saw that the gate of Yangzhou City was wide open, the soldiers guarding the city were bored and hiding in the city gate hole, there were few people in and out of the city, a centurion saw the returning convoy, and immediately led a few soldiers to block in front of the convoy, holding the hand of the saber and shouting: "Stop coming." ”

A person who looked like a housekeeper jumped out of the carriage, walked over to deal with it, and said, "Lord Wan, I didn't expect you to guard the city today, and you also saw that this is our Song family's convoy, and please let us into the city." ”

"I'm sorry Steward Song, this official can't call the shots in this matter. It doesn't matter if it's a normal time, but you also know what happened in the city recently, and Lord Yin personally ordered everyone to be interrogated. Wan Yu was embarrassed in his mouth, but there was no trace of embarrassment on his face, and he waved his hand and said, "Brothers, search for me." ”

Steward Song was just about to stop it, but he thought that it was Fu Yin's order that was just Wan Yu, and said, "Lord Wan, wait a while, you can check if you want, but I need to talk to the head of the family." ”

When Wan Yu heard this, his face showed respect, his right hand was raised high, and he said, "Brothers, wait." ”

Turning his head to Steward Song, he said, "The head of the Song family is kind to me, since the head of the Song family is here, I should go to see him in person." ”

Steward Song stretched out his hand and said, "Lord Wan, please come with me." ”

The two crossed the gorgeous carriage at the front together, and came to the adjacent two carriages, Steward Song bowed slightly, and said, "Master, Lord Wan asks to see." ”

Song Zhiying lifted the curtain, and immediately jumped out of the carriage when he saw that it was Wan Yu, although he now has a lot of money, but after all, he is a businessman, so he didn't dare to let people hold the handle and jump out of the carriage immediately.

Wan Yu clasped his fists at Song Zhiying and said, "Wan Yu has seen Master Song." ”

Song Zhiying returned the salute and said, "It turned out to be Wan Yu, how is your mother doing?" ”

"Thank you Master Song for your concern, my mother is still the same, but it is much better than in the past, and now I can eat and go." Wan Yu said with a smile on his face.

"That's good, that's good." Song Ji-young said with a smile.

The two exchanged a few more words and got to the point, Song Zhiying pointed to the soldiers in front of the convoy and asked, "Lord Wan, what's going on?" ”

Wan Yu had a headache on his face, looked left and right, lowered his voice, and said, "Master Song, don't you know, Mr. Sang and his family of five were also killed yesterday, or is it the same as the previous ones, the cause of death is all seven orifices bleeding and death, and Nangong Darao's pressure is not ordinary."

This morning, all the clans and scholars in the city united and found Lord Nangong, telling him that he must catch the murderer within ten days, otherwise they will prepare to play the court.

Lord Nangong had no choice, so he could only implement strict entry and exit, and at the same time start to investigate all the families in the city one by one, and let the third class arrest hurry up and solve the case. ”

As soon as Song Zhiying heard that it was Fu Yin's order, he understood that the convoy could not be exempted from being interrogated, glanced left and right, quietly pointed to the carriage in front of him, and said in a loud voice: "Lord Wan, you and I are also old acquaintances, if you believe me, it is enough for you to take a little look at the carriage in front of you, and the people sitting in it are indescribably expensive, not people you and I can offend." ”

Wan Yu looked at the carriage in front of him in surprise, before he thought that Song Zhiying was afraid of danger so he didn't take the first carriage, it turned out that it was a noble person in the carriage in front of him, nodded, and said, "Thank you Master Song for reminding me, Wan Yu is clear." ”

Wan Yu waved at the guards in the passage of the city gate, and shouted: "Brothers, this is my convoy of Jinxiu Cloth Village, give me a little action, everyone, search." ”

The soldiers in the city gate cave moved with knives and guns, and began to search every carriage, Wan Yu walked to the carriage where Wang Jun was, stood outside the carriage, and said with his fists: "Your honor, you are ordered to search all the people who enter and exit, and please forgive me." ”

"Yes, take a look!" Wang Jun didn't want to embarrass these soldiers, they were just acting on orders.

Wan Yu lifted the curtain and took a look, and when he saw Zhao Ling'er, who was like a fairy, and Wang Jun, who was full of nobility and majesty, he hurriedly withdrew his eyes, understood that the people in the carriage were not something he could provoke, and bowed down and said: "Noble, it has been checked, please forgive me." ”

Immediately, Wan Yu saw that all the soldiers shook their heads, understood that nothing was found, took a step back, waved his big hand, and shouted: "Release the school"

All the soldiers heard the words immediately get out of the way, standing on both sides, the sound of horses' hooves "da-da" sounded crisply, a feeling of sudden enlightenment when entering Yangzhou City, the houses in the city were arranged in an orderly manner, the shops on both sides were lined up, and there were few pedestrians on the street in relation to the heavy rain, but they could vaguely feel the prosperity of weekdays.

Song Zhiying's carriage caught up with Wang Jun, lifted the curtain, and asked Wang Jun: "Nobleman, the murder happened again last night, and now Fu Yin has ordered the whole city to implement martial law to search for the murderer.

It is better to borrow our house temporarily, although the Rao Humble House is not as simple as the nobles, but there are still a few clean and tidy empty rooms, and the nobles can wait for the city to be safer before moving out to live. ”

"No, if it's not safe in the city, it's useless to move to your house.

You can send us to the biggest inn in the city, and I'd like to hear what the people of the city have to say about the murder. Wang Jun said lightly. And don't reveal the identity of your Song family, let others notice, and don't reveal the news of Benrao, understand? ”

"I see." Song Zhiying heard that Wang Jun was unwilling to live in his house, and suddenly felt a little lost, knowing that he was still too anxious, and he should sit down with the woman before, so he cleaned up his mood and said.

"Nobleman, the carriage you are sitting in now, all the people in Yangzhou City know that it is Rao, if the nobleman reveals his identity, he can only trouble the nobleman to change to a simple carriage."

Wang Jun was not the slightest dissatisfied with this, although he didn't care about his identity being exposed, he could hide for a while longer, and got up and said, "Ling'er, let's change cars." ”

Zhao Ling'er bowed slightly, and said, "Okay." ”

The five of them got out of the carriage, changed into a less conspicuous carriage under the arrangement of Song Zhiying, and under the guidance of the Song family's coachman, they came to the largest inn in Yangzhou City, "Mingyue Tower".

Even though there were several homicides in the city, Hao did not affect the business of Mingyue Building, and the noisy sound of the restaurant could be seen outside the door.

"Master, how many of you?" The second shopkeeper came over panting,

Li Xiaoyao said angrily: "Your eyes are white, don't you see that there are five of us?" ”

The second shopkeeper was also angry, and said with a smile: "Aren't people afraid that you still have people outside!" The five masters, please. ”

After a pause, he said, "Are the guest officers sharp, or are they staying in the hotel?" ”

Wang Jun took out a piece of broken silver and threw it to the second shop, and said, "We live in the store, do you have an independent yard here?" ”

The second shopkeeper took a bite of the silver, put it into his arms, and said proudly: "If you go back to the master, the whole Yangzhou City has an independent courtyard in our Mingyue Building, but the price is a little expensive." ”

"There's no problem with the price, but we need to live together as a group of five." Wang Jun threw out another piece of silver and said.

The second shopkeeper took the silver ingot with joy and said with a smile: "Guest officer, you eat something first, and then someone will go to the shopkeeper to register for you." ”

The five of them walked into the inn, glanced at the lobby and found that it was already full, Li Xiaoyao frowned unconsciously, and said, "The lobby is full, there is no place to sit." ”

The second shopkeeper smiled: "The lobby is full, but there is still a place in the private rooms on the second, third and fourth floors." ”

"Let's go up to the second floor!" Wang Jun said.

The second shopkeeper led Wang Jun and the five people up to the second floor, found an empty table, and said, "Please sit down, what do you want to eat?" ”

As soon as Anu heard what he was eating, his eyes were about to glow, so he heard Wang Jun say: "You have a copy of the signature dishes of Mingyue Tower, give us some beef and mutton, and ask for some rice for the staple food, and then two pots of wine to taste." ”

Anu said happily: "Thank you, brother-in-law." ”

The second shopkeeper bowed and said, "Wait a minute, you have a lot of dishes, and the kitchen needs some time to prepare." ”

Wang Jun waved his hand and said, "No problem, but you try to hurry." ”

"I see." The second shopkeeper said yes and went downstairs.

After a while, a woman in her thirties, dressed relatively a little revealingly, saw her dress up with flowers, as if she was born with a sense of charm, holding an account book swaying, walked to Wang Jun Wurao's seat, and said with a smile: "The woman is Ji Sanniang, the owner of Mingyue Tower, and I have seen several guest officers." ”

When did Li Xiaoyao see a woman dressed like this, he couldn't help but look a little stupid.

Lin Yueru noticed Li Xiaoyao's appearance, and couldn't help pinching Li Xiaoyao's leg fiercely, and said, "Bastard, what are you looking at?" ”

Li Xiaoyao couldn't help but scream in pain, jumped up, rubbed the pinched place, and said angrily: "Wicked girl, you are crazy!" ”

Lin Yueru almost said that she was unhappy on her face, and said angrily: "I'm just crazy, what's wrong?" ”

Ji Sanniang chuckled and said, "Shaoxia, you can't see that your female companion is jealous." ”

Lin Yueru said unceremoniously: "What does it matter to you whether I am jealous or not." ”

"Alright, Yueru." Wang Jun said with a smile. "This proprietress is already married, and she won't take a fancy to your Li Xiaoyao."

Lin Yueru's face turned red in an instant, and she said stiffly: "Brother Wang, what are you blind, he is not mine." ”

Wang Jun turned his head to look at Ji Sanniang and said, "I don't know what happened to the boss?" ”

"Guest officer, the woman has no choice, the government has ordered that every guest must be remembered, and asked where he came from and where he is going? How many do you want to stay in Yangzhou, do you have any relatives and acquaintances as guarantees, etc. Ji Sanniang put the official register on the table and said.

"No problem, we should cooperate." Wang Jun said with a smile.

Later, a few people came from Yuhang, and they needed to rush to Nanzhao Kingdom, as well as a few things in Yangzhou City.
