When Ye Qingqiu left, he gave each of the prison guards a large bag of silver, asking them to take good care of Xiaoba, and it was best to change her to a cell with better conditions. Eating people with soft mouths and short hands, several jailers immediately nodded to Ye Qingqiu, and obeyed. As soon as Ye Qingqiu left, the jailers changed Jin Luoluo into a clean and well-lit cell.

As soon as Ye Qingqiu came out of the cell, he went straight back to Ye's mansion, found Master Ye, and asked, "Dad, does the Shangshu of the Criminal Department have a good relationship with you?" ”

Master Ye, who was drinking tea, raised his eyes and saw Ye Qingqiu with an anxious face, was slightly stunned, and nodded: "Yes, the relationship between iron buddies." What's wrong? ”

Ye Qingqiu hurriedly walked to Master Ye's side, grabbed Master Ye's arm, and said, "Dad, can you go and find Master Shangshu of the Criminal Department, and rescue Xiaoba?" ”

"Hachi?" Master Ye thought about it in his mind for a while, remembered the woman his son seemed to like very much, and then asked, "What's wrong with her?" ”

Ye Qingqiu said the whole thing roughly, and Master Ye frowned slightly. After half a ring, Master Ye said: "It's not impossible for me to go to Master Shangshu, but after all, this matter is her fault, and she should be sentenced to death." If he can't save her, you can't force it. ”

"Dad, I don't want Hachi to die."

In a word, it suddenly made Master Ye feel a lot of pressure for a moment. On one side is his son, and on the other is the punishment of the imperial court. Of course, he wanted to meet Ye Qingqiu's request, but the death row prisoners in the imperial court were not saved by saying that they could be saved. Even if he has great ability, he can't do it every time. Master Ye exhaled deeply, released the pressure in his heart, and said, "Dad will do his best!" Daddy is going to find Lord Shangshu now! ”

After speaking, Master Ye put the teacup on the tea table, and then got up and walked out of the Ye Mansion.

Ye Qingqiu kept thinking in the room, letting Lord Shangshu of the Criminal Department directly intervene in this matter is the fastest shortcut, but if his father does not succeed, who else in his connections can help?

Ye Qingqiu quickly went through all the friends in his mind, and quickly labeled these people with different labels.

Master Ye took the carriage all the way to the mansion of the Shangshu of the Criminal Department.

After arriving at the mansion, the doorman went in to report, and after a while, he saw Lord Shangshu of the Criminal Department personally come to the door to greet him.

The majestic momentum that Master Shang Shu had accumulated over the years softened a lot in an instant when he saw Master Ye. I only heard Lord Shangshu laugh in a thick and loud voice: "Brother Ye, why did you think about coming to me today?" I don't want to give you a notice in advance, so I can let the house prepare. ”

Master Ye waved his hand and said with a smile: "What are you going to prepare, we still need you to prepare the delicacies of the mountains and seas in advance?" A pot of old wine and a few dishes are enough! Let's go into the house and say, I'm here today, I've been entrusted with a lot! ”

Lord Shang Shu smiled and walked towards the hall with Master Ye, and the deep crow's feet at the corners of his eyes made his whole person less solemn. I only heard Master Shangshu laugh and said: "The one who can make Brother Ye willingly do things for him, except for your son who is spoiled in the palm of his hand, there is no one else, right?" ”

Master Ye laughed softly and said, "You still understand me so well!" ”

The two came to the hall with a smile, and Lord Shangshu ordered his subordinates to make two good teas, and then prepared some simple snacks and wine, and then dismissed all the subordinates. Lord Shangshu opened his mouth and said: "There is no one else at this moment, Brother Ye can just open his mouth if there is anything." ”

Master Ye took a sip of tea and asked, "I heard that a big ~ smuggling case was cracked yesterday?" ”

"Well, it's not a big case, a few small fishermen picked out some imported goods and traded them privately. Brother Ye is here for this? ”

Master Ye nodded and said, "There is a girl who has been arrested, who is the maid of my Ye Mansion." My son must have taken a heart on this girl, so let me find a way to get her out. No, I'm here for you! ”

Master Shang Shu stroked his beard and laughed again, "It's rare that Brother Ye has something to ask me for help." Don't worry, I may not be sure of other things, but I am still sure of this. Recently, the courtiers of the imperial court have been playing the emperor, suggesting a different method of paying tribute to the merchants engaged in shipping. In the past, for convenience, the imperial court used to purchase goods by sea and sell them to local merchants at a higher price. You and I know that when the petty officials below go to collect tribute, it is inevitable that they will not take a little difference from it to get their own private pockets. Recently, the emperor has also considered letting the merchants of the sea trade on their own, and the imperial court will collect tribute in proportion to the cumulative price of the goods. In this way, it can not only avoid the petty officials below from taking kickbacks, but also protect the interests of these traders. ”

"That's great!"

"But don't worry. The waiter in charge of this case in the government is a dead brain, if I directly ask him to do some means to release the girl, he will not be able to agree, and if he doesn't protect it, he will make this matter bigger. So, I hope you go back and talk to Qiu Er about this matter, so that he doesn't worry. I will put this case off for a while and retry it when the law is changed. The death penalty will definitely be waived, and when the time comes, Brother Ye will just go through the bail process. ”

"Then I'll thank you for my Qiu'er first!" Master Ye finally showed a relieved smile.

Lord Shangshu stroked his beard, waved his hand and said politely. After half a ring, the smile on Lord Shangshu's face narrowed a little, and he asked in a low voice, "You haven't told Qiu Er's true identity yet, have you?" ”

Master Ye was stunned for a moment, then shook his head with a smile.

Master Shangshu nodded and said, "If you want me to say, you will directly hide it from him for the rest of your life." For him, you are willing to have no children in your life, even if you are your biological father, you can't do it to such an extent. ”

Old Man Ye smiled helplessly and said, "But he should be the one who enjoys supreme glory, what I can give him now is really nothing!" I used to want to tell him when I had the right opportunity, but now that I get older, I can't open my mouth more and more, and I always want to do this with him all the time. ”

"You're right. If you tell him who he really is, he won't have any other ideas. When the time comes, you will inevitably regret it! ”

"No, I still know about Qiu'er, I eat, drink and have fun all day long, and I really don't have any desire for power."

"That's because he doesn't know who he is, what if he does?"

“……”

"If you want me to say, don't even think about telling him. If the Holy One knew his identity today, he would definitely not let him live in peace. Now, just enjoy your family! ”

Master Ye smiled and said, "What you said is not unreasonable. ”

……

Ye Qingqiu had been frowning and wandering in Master Ye's hall. Seeing that Master Ye was back, he immediately stepped forward and asked anxiously, "Dad, what's going on?" ”

Master Ye smiled: "Don't worry! Master Shangshu said that he can protect her, but let you not worry, it may take a while. ”

Ye Qingqiu raised his heart for a long time, and now he finally let go completely. After wandering for a long time, he finally regained his usual calm again, sat lazily on the chair in the hall, and took a sip of the herbal tea at hand, which can be regarded as suppressing his shock.

After half a ring, I saw Ye Qingqiu's brows frown slightly, and he said to himself: "No, I have to tell Xiaoba first, so as not to worry her." ”

After speaking, he didn't say goodbye to Master Ye, and trotted out of the hall directly.

Master Ye looked at his back and scolded with a smile: "Stinky boy! ”

Ye Qingqiu took a carriage and came directly to the prison cell of the mansion. The jailers all knew Young Master Ye and took a lot of benefits from Ye Qingqiu, so Ye Qingqiu didn't encounter any obstacles, and came to Jin Luoluo's cell again.

The four eyes looked at Jin Luoluo's newly changed cell, although he knew that no matter how good the environment of the cell was, it was like this, but he couldn't help frowning slightly.

"Hachi." Ye Qingqiu called softly.

Jin Luoluo raised his eyes when he heard this, and when he saw Ye Qingqiu, his dim eyes lit up in an instant. Hurriedly came to the door of the iron prison, and the jailer also opened the door at this time.

"Young Master, why are you here again?"

Ye Qingqiu's eyebrows bent, and he smiled: "Of course I'm here to tell you the good news!" ”

Jin Luoluo's eyes widened in surprise and asked in disbelief, "So fast?" ”

"That's it! You don't want to think about who Young Master Ben is. It's just that this matter is urgent, and I have to be wronged to spend some time in your cell. As she spoke, Ye Qingqiu stroked her slightly messy hair with some distress.

"Well, I'll wait, I'll wait, it doesn't matter how long I wait." Jin Luoluo nodded again and again, and choked up with excitement.

Ye Qingqiu was stunned when she heard this, and when she saw her big eyes with aura, two lines of big tears suddenly rolled down.

Ye Qingqiu was a little flustered for a moment, and hurriedly raised his hand to help her wipe away the tears on her cheeks, and said, "Ouch, what are you crying about?" This can be lived, why are you still crying? ”

Jin Luoluo also raised his hand to wipe the tears on his face, and sobbed: "Young master, I'm not crying, I'm crying with joy!" After a pause, he continued: "Xiao Hachi can know the young master in this life, it is really a blessing for Xiao Hachi! The young master's kindness to Hachi, Hachi is unforgettable! ”

The corners of Ye Qingqiu's lips were half raised, and he said with a smile: "Could it be that the next sentence is to repay the kindness of Young Master Ben by being a cow and a horse in the next life?" ”

Jin Luoluo raised his red and swollen eyes, nodded, and said, "If this is what the young master wants, then the little eight will be a cow and a horse for the young master in the next life!" ”

"Ouch, Young Master Ben can't stand it! Besides, how long will I have to wait in the next life? Young Master Ben didn't want to wait until the next life. If you want to repay the favor, you can do it in this life. ”

"Then, how does the young master want Hachi to repay your kindness? As long as it is something that Hachi can do, Hachi will definitely do it. ”

"Oh?" Ye Qingqiu picked the corner of her lips, raised her hand to touch her cheek, gently rubbed her tears with her thumb, and said with a smile: "Young Master Ben wants you, make a promise!" ”
