Chapter 285: Fruitless
After dinner, Yan Qi declined the prince's kind invitation to let him stay overnight and went down the mountain.
Bian Yushan walked in front with a lantern, and Baixiang followed Yan Qi's side.
The white moonlight shines through the branches and falls mottled on the bluestone slabs.
Yan Qi stepped on it, as if he had stepped on broken silver on the ground.
Yu Guang saw that Baixiang was holding a round thing in his hand, throwing it high, catching it, and throwing it high again.
Squinted and looked at it, "What's it?" ”
Baixiang said happily: "Pomegranate." As he spoke, he glanced at the back of Yu Shan on the side, and said in a low voice, "Stole it." ”
Yan Qi looked at him indescribably.
Baixiang was worried by him, and hesitated: "Or, I'll go back?" ”
Yan Qi retracted his gaze.
After leaving, he said, "Go back and peel me half." ”
Spice: ""
The next day, Yan Qi went to the warehouse again.
The records of the entry and exit of herbs, the guy in charge of hoarding the medicine warehouse, the few poisonous herbs picked out, the guy guarding the medicine warehouse, every clue, every knot, he re-combed it carefully.
As a result, nothing was found.
The rule of the merchant house, a medicine warehouse granary of this size, at least five people must be present when hoarding and opening.
During the period from the opening of the warehouse to the time it was used up, there were three shifts a day, and one shift was two people.
If you want to put the poison herb in the warehouse, you can't hide it from the people who are on duty together.
Under interrogation, even the secret matter of playing dice and gambling money and meeting his cousin privately when he was on duty was interrogated, but no clues were found about the poison herb.
What details did he leave out?
Xiao Nong's chubby face was apprehensive and tight, his hands were on his stomach high above his chest, and he waited obediently and quietly on one side, motionless, only glancing at Yan Qi from time to time.
Sui Feng watched Yan Qi look at the clues listed over and over again, and said helplessly: "It's almost dinner, it's time for the head of the family to go back." ”
Yan Qi pushed aside the paper on the table that had been read by him a hundred and ten times, and could copy the clues backwards, leaned back in the chair, rubbed his eyebrows tiredly, and said, "How is the situation in the epidemic area today?" ”
Sui Feng pinched the paper that he pushed away, folded it and put it away, Wen Yan glanced at his expression, and said, "I sent someone to inquire, and the situation has improved slightly." ”
Yan Qi nodded.
Xiao Nong, as the big shopkeeper of the two lakes, was fortunate to see Yan Qi, but in the past two days, he has been trained in front of him.
Seeing that Yan Qi was leaving, he thought about it and felt that it was inappropriate, so he eagerly kept Yan Qi for dinner.
Yan Qi glanced sideways at Xiao Nong, who didn't know whether it was hot or sweaty with fright, and said, "Thank you Shopkeeper Xiao, you don't need to have dinner, and you still have accounts to deal with when you go back." ”
Beat the horse all the way back to Qinghe Mountain.
Ma Qiao hunted a wild boar out of nowhere, and was roasting it on the fire, seeing Yan Qi and the others coming back, he stepped forward with a smile and said, "Qi Gongzi wait a minute, there will be delicious roast pork soon." ”
The people in the army don't talk so much, but they listen kindly.
Hearing this, Yan Qi glanced at the bubbling boar on the shelf, and said with a smile: "Then I'll wait." ”
Macho replied with a loud voice, turned around and went back to roast the pig.
Yan Qi and Sui Feng returned to the tent.
Where Yan Qi is, the account books of the commercial bank will be sent.
Looking at the stacks of account books on the bookcase, he raised his forehead and said, "What's the matter, why do I have such a bad headache?" ”
Sui Feng saw him playing, and he didn't mean to accompany him to act, so he made him a cup of strong tea and put it on the corner of the table.
Yan Qi sat down resignedly, picked up the ledger and looked at it.
When he saw a copy, he frowned: "It's a bit difficult to rely on the states and counties around the two lakes to send grain." Expand it a bit. ”
Sui Feng also had a few stacks in front of him, and he was looking at it, and he didn't raise his head when he heard the words, and said, "I have already ordered it to go down this morning." ”
Yan Qi chuckled: "What can I do without you?" ”
Sui Feng said: "When will the monthly money rise?" ”
Yan Qi took a sip of tea: "The tea is good." ”
The tent was lifted from the outside, and the prince walked in shortly, watching Yan Qi work hard behind the desk, his face twisted, and he didn't know what he saw that made him embarrassed.
Thinking of the time he used to make fun of when he read the official document, the prince laughed without sympathy.
Yan Qi heard the laughter, looked up, and saw that it was the prince, his expression remained unchanged, and he lowered his head again to continue to read the account.
Sui Feng hurriedly got up and saluted.
The prince was ignored by Yan Qi, not embarrassed or annoyed at all, walked to the bamboo rocking chair and sat down, shook it, and said, "Why is it so uninteresting, I don't know how to call me if I have meat to eat." ”
Yan Qi held the abacus beads in his left hand, held the pen in his right hand, stared at the account book with his eyes, and replied in his mouth: "Coarse food is shabby, I'm afraid that the prince will not be used to it." ”
Sui Feng had already poured the tea and put it in the prince's hand, stood for a while to see that the prince had not ordered, and then went back to read the account.
The prince admired Yan Qi's skills a little.
"I smell good, don't be stingy." said with a smile in the corner of his eyes, and looked at him teasingly: "Anyway, it's not to eat your meat." ”
Yan Qi mentioned it in one breath, and he was very troubled by the prince's deliberate behavior of leading the war.
Look at him swaying on the recliner, where is the slightest bit of a prince?!
Aside from his eyes, he said disgustedly: "If you want to eat, let Jiang Ji take someone to hunt." ”
"The CCP is just such a little pig, are you embarrassed to share it?"
The prince didn't feel embarrassed, the whole thing seemed to be stuck to the bamboo rocking chair, and he had no intention of leaving.
Yan Qi glanced at him a few times, shook his head, and didn't bother to pay attention.
Not long after, Bian Yushan came in with a tray, and when he saw that the prince was also there, he was a little surprised, so he hurriedly saluted.
The prince said: "General Bian doesn't have to be polite. As he spoke, he glanced at the tray in his hand: "Is the meat roasted?" ”
Bian Yushan saw that the prince wanted to eat meat, and nodded busily: "Okay, it's hot now, and the taste is the best!" ”
As he spoke, he hurriedly put the tray on the table.
There was one more snatcher, Yan Qi hurriedly put down the account book and beckoned Sui Feng to eat meat.
Full of two plates of meat slices, Yan Qi pinched a slice and ate it, whether it was the taste, fat or taste, it was excellent, and praised: "Ma Qiao's barbecue skills are not bad." ”
Bian Yushan said with a smile: "He has the best skills in the camp, and when he encounters barbecue errands, he is handed over to him." ”
The prince saw that Yan Qi had eaten two slices in a row, and said, "How is it?" ”
Yan Qi saw that he didn't move, and said, "You come to eat, what are you so reserved at this time?" ”
The prince was ridiculed, but he was not angry, and said with a smile: "Let you eat first." ”
Bian Yushan heard this, and then looked at the prince's gentle demeanor when he looked at Yan Qi, and suddenly thought of the word eldest brother like father.
But then I heard the prince say: "If you are poisonous, you will be poisoned first." ”
Yan Qi: ""
Bian Yu Mountain: ""
The prince found that there were no chopsticks, and he didn't pay so much attention to it, so he learned from Yan Qi to pinch a piece with his hand, chewed it a few times, and nodded: "It's really good." ”
"If you hunt wild boars during the autumn hunt this year, you can roast and eat them like this."
Yan Qi nodded indifferently.
