Chapter 1087 - Buying the Books
Yan Zhuliu went out of the gambling house, not to the yamen, but to the Yan family.
When Yan Li heard Yan Zhu Liu's coming, his face was full of disgust and disdain.
If he could, he wouldn't want to see him at all.
If he hadn't been able to find where the ledger had been placed, the first person he would have disposed of would be Yan Zhuliu.
"Master, the person is still waiting outside, saying that he must see the master."
"Biography."
Yan Li had no choice but to declare.
"Lord Yan, please save the little one."
As soon as Yan Zhuliu saw Yan Li's figure, he hurriedly rushed over and knelt on the ground and hugged his thighs, just like he made a big mistake more than ten years ago and begged him for help.
Yan Li's face sank, and he knew that the big thing was not good.
"What's wrong with you again?"
Yan Li said with a bad face.
"I didn't get into any trouble, but I gambled twice as soon as I was addicted."
Yan Zhuliu said cautiously, observing Yan Li's face.
"Bet? Didn't you say you quit? Before, because of gambling mistakes, now you still gamble. ”
Yan Li was furious, and he didn't have the slightest sympathy.
"My lord, I haven't gambled for a long time, this is really an accident, and I can't help it once I get addicted."
Yan Zhuliu begged, hugging Yan Li's thigh: "My lord, now only adults can save me, and there is nothing else to do except adults." ”
Yan Zhuliu cried, Yan Li was so angry that he just wanted to slap the person in front of him to death.
He didn't expect Yan Zhuliu to come back and gamble again.
"How much do you lose?"
"Hehe, it's not much, just, just 100,000 taels."
"What? 100,000 taels? What do you know what 100,000 taels mean? ”
Yan Li excitedly grabbed Yan Zhuliu's collar and lifted him up, opened his eyes wide, gritted his teeth and asked.
100,000 taels is not a small amount, he lost 100,000 taels in just one day, and if he goes on like this, he will go bankrupt!
"My lord, 100,000 taels is a big amount for a small one, but it's just a small amount for an adult, my lord, it's really just this time, there is no next time, you can help me again for the sake of me working hard for you for so many years, if they don't get the money to report to the yamen, they know that the one who owes the debt is the county official himself, and it is not good for you to make a big fuss at that time."
Yan Zhuliu smiled, and there was a bit of a threat in his words.
Yan Li's face was as black as coal, and his hands were clenched into fists that he almost wanted to fall on Yan Zhuliu's face.
A small number, which is a small number.
"Who do you think of me, if you have something to ask me to help you wipe your ass, you will think of me?"
Yan Li gritted his teeth and said, if there is regret medicine, he will buy it no matter how much silver it is, if he can go back to the past, he will definitely not let Yan Zhuliu help him do things.
This man is insatiable and only wants money.
He has not treated him badly over the years, and as a result, he only treats him as a bank.
"How can it, my lord, I am loyal, I also have someone to help you do things, you see that I didn't deal with Chen Ye and Wang Hao for you, as well as the former General Yang and others, these dirty things are not all done by me for you, my lord, your hands are still clean."
Yan Zhuliu said shamelessly.
"What are you talking about about and doing? You said you wouldn't mention it at the beginning, but now you're trying to threaten me? ”
Speaking of these people, Yan Li's face changed greatly, and he hurriedly stopped Yan Zhuliu from continuing.
Sensing that Yan Li was angry, Yan Zhuliu hurriedly comforted: "Oh, don't be angry, how dare the little one threaten you, the little one is just telling the truth." ”
"I have done so many things for adults, and adults will help the villain again this time, as long as 100,000 taels, and the little ones will never ask adults for help in the future."
Yan Zhuliu promised that as long as he helped him through this difficulty, he would come up with his own ideas.
Yan Li hesitated, seeing Yan Zhuliu like this, he knew that he was addicted to gambling
Come up, help this time and there will be a next time, just like before.
"My lord, only you can help me, if you don't even want to help you, then there is no one for me, can you bear to see me have an accident."
"If something happens to me, you'll be in trouble, my lord."
Yan Zhuliu reminded that the meaning of his words became more and more obvious to threaten Yan Li, reminding him that the two of them were grasshoppers on the same rope.
"It's not easy to deal with a gambling house according to your methods, how can you pay back."
Yan Li was puzzled, if you don't want to give money, just find an excuse to close the gambling house.
According to his current position, it is easy to seal a gambling house.
"I've just taken office, it's not good to make trouble, and I dare to open a gambling house at this time, there must be some backers behind it, and I don't know who the backers will be."
"It's also a good opportunity to cast a long line to catch big fish, and you can find out who is behind the casino."
Yan Zhuliu's expression changed slightly, he had already felt that it was abnormal, at this time, everyone was eager to close the shop, but there were still people who had just opened the shop, in addition to wanting to make a profit, there must be a problem.
He's not stupid, he's been through the wind and waves.
If he can successfully find out who the other party is, he can also make other preparations.
"Are you telling the truth?"
Yan Li asked with some skepticism, and Yan Zhuliu nodded: "Adult, what the little one said is true." ”
"I can not only give you 100,000, but also give you 200,000 more, a total of 300,000, but I have a request, give me the account book."
"In the future, you will be your prefect, and I will be my left prime minister."
Yan Li opened his mouth, now Yan Zhuliu also wants something, and those who know each other should hand over the account book instead of hiding it.
Leaving the account book in Yan Zhuliu's hands is equivalent to his own life in the hands of others.
"Do you want to cross the river and tear down the bridge?"
With the cunning eyes rolling, Yan Zhuliu immediately realized what Yan Li meant.
This is to buy back the ledger in one go, so that he will not be threatened in the future.
"I'm just for the sake of profit, if you don't agree, don't even think about taking it from me, the current 300,000 taels is enough for you to live a lifetime."
"Do you interrupt and die with me, or take the 300,000 taels to be your prefect, choose one of the two."
Yan Li gave a choice.
What he hates the most is being threatened, and Yan Zhuliu has threatened him with the ledger and the previous things not once or twice.
It's okay to use the same trick once or twice, but if you use it too many times, he won't be threatened.
It's a big deal.
"Okay, I promise you."
"However, I must see the silver before I can give you the ledger."
Yan Zhuliu nodded in agreement.
Yan Li's words are still somewhat credible, and there are some things that Yan Li still needs his help, so he shouldn't do anything to him for the time being.
His arms can't twist his thighs, no matter what he says, he is not Yan Li's opponent, Yan Li is now a popular person next to Emperor Chu, even if he takes the account book to the Chu Emperor, I don't know if the Chu Emperor will believe him, the account book will go through the hands of Yan Li and Xia Ruosheng in the hands of the Chu Emperor, he is not Yan Li's opponent.
"Yes, tomorrow I will order someone to give the silver, as for the account book, you must prepare it first, if you can't see the account book tomorrow, this official..."
Sharp eyes stared at Yan Zhuliu, and there was a sense of threat in his words.
Yan Zhuliu nodded: "Don't worry, my lord, I will definitely be ready!" ”
"Get out."
Yan Li said impatiently, his patience had already been worn out by Yan Zhuliu.
When he begged him, he also said that it was the last time, and he would never enter the capital again and not appear in front of him in the future, but he had the cheekiness to beg him to give him a chance to return to the capital.
Yan Zhuliu is flamboyant, if he doesn't verify the account book on the spot, he won't be alike
Trust Him.
"Yes, yes."
Yan Zhuliu nodded, got up from the ground and slowly retreated, tripped under his feet and almost fell down on the door railing, but fortunately he was holding on to the door quickly.
Seeing Yan Li looking at him, he nodded and smiled and left slowly.
Yan Li snorted coldly, as long as he got the account book back, he didn't have to be afraid of Yan Zhuliu, and when he had no use value, he would casually find an excuse to kill someone.
After all, Yan Zhuliu knew too many things, and he still didn't feel safe with him around.
For Yan Zhuliu, money is the most important one, only for silver and not for others, this kind of talent is the most troublesome.
Yan Zhuliu came out of Yan's mansion and took a sip.
"What are you pretending to be, those who don't know still think you're really honest, and you're drunk and dirty behind your back."
Yan Zhuliu complained, patted his clothes, and swaggered away.
It's not going in the direction of Funai, but in other directions.
In a dilapidated and shabby place, the surrounding buildings were burned down and only ruins remained, only a latrine was still standing, and half of the roof was burned to the ground.
It's a remote place, and most people don't come here.
Yan Zhuliu looked left and right, and saw that no one had gone to the broken house.
This place is not within the capital but not far from the capital.
"Old Fox Yan is really a fox."
Yan Zhuliu cursed, squatted in a place full of briquettes, picked up the branch next to him and dug it up.
The ledger is his life-saving talisman, he doesn't dare to put the ledger by his side, let alone put it in the house, only in a place that has nothing to do with him is safe.
Yan Zhuliu pried it, and the nails on his hands were full of ash.
Yan Zhuliu shoveled out something and held it in his hand, grinning.
Hehe smiled happily like holding a baby.
"I didn't think that one day you would be worth 300,000 taels, you are really a baby."
His hand patted on it, and he opened the wrapped paper and kissed and hugged the ledger.
Seeing left and right, no one got up and went out, and after Yan Zhuliu left, a black shadow came out of it.
Cold eyes looked at Yan Zhuliu's back as he hurriedly left.
A ledger is worth 300,000 taels.
That's not a small amount.
The shadow faded away, as if no one had ever been here.
In the palace, Emperor Chu was eating the elixir sent by the red sleeves.
"Lately, I've been feeling weaker and weaker."
Emperor Chu was a little tired as soon as he finished eating, he didn't want to move, and he wanted to sleep together.
"The emperor must be too tired, the concubine went to get some incense for the emperor, this incense was just sent to the palace today, I heard what kind of lavender it is, it sounds very novel."
Redsleeves packed up the bowl and picked up the tray and left.
Seeing the red sleeves leaving, Emperor Chu looked cold, opened his mouth, took out the pill and wrapped it in paper.
As soon as Red Sleeves left, Kuluo came in from outside the hall.
"Your Majesty."
Kuluo bent down and said politely.
Emperor Chu stretched out his hand and took the pulse bitterly.
His expression was solemn and he was very puzzled.
"How?"
Emperor Chu couldn't help but ask when he saw the bitterness, his face was ugly.
"Your Majesty, the emperor's health is improving."
hesitated bitterly, and finally spoke out with a clear conscience.
"Feeling better? But your expression tells me that's not the case. ”
Emperor Chu stared at Kuluo, hoping that Kuluo could give him a satisfactory explanation.
He had listened to Kuluo's words and didn't take the pill, but looking at Kuluo's expression, it didn't seem that the situation was optimistic.
"The minion's expression has always been like this, as long as the emperor insists on taking the minion's medicine, he will definitely be cured."
Kuluo hehe smiled, his smile was a little stiff.
