The surface of the river was shattered.

Countless lotus lanterns were wet by the waves, and the candles were silently extinguished, and soon sank to the bottom with the undercurrent.

There are more and more people on the shore.

There are more and more good people looking for people everywhere in the river.

But after searching for more than half an hour, they didn't find any trace of Yao Qin.

Someone said, "Isn't it going to be washed downstream?" ”

The person on the painting boat hurriedly said: "Let's go downstream to look for it, maybe the eldest prince just choked a few mouthfuls of water and has already gone ashore." ”

The men left behind a few men and drove away the kabuki slaves on the ship.

The rest of the people all went downstream.

On the boat.

The gentlemen and kabuki who had gathered on the boat to drink and have fun had long since dispersed.

In the inner room, a man dressed as a small servant opened a large box.

Yao Qin took a long breath and curled up in the box, his eyes wide in horror.

Just now, he had his eye on a new rakiki.

Taking advantage of the drunkenness, he saw that he was interested, smashed the lute of the musician, and dragged the man into the inner room.

The few gentlemen who were good friends with him knew it.

They ordered the music to continue loudly, and each of them embraced the beauty for pleasure, but kept it away from the room.

Who knew that Yao Qin was very drunk, and was pushed by the woman, and his head hit the corner of the table and passed out.

When he woke up, he found himself in a large box, with his hands and feet tied and stuffed in his mouth.

No matter how much he slapped, not a single sound could be heard.

Just when he felt almost suffocated, the box was finally opened.

He saw Yao Yu's face.

Yao Yu was dressed in the clothes of a subordinate, and smiled gently at him: "Big brother, you are awake." ”

He took out the rag from Yao Qin's mouth.

Yao Qin scolded: "What's going on? Who stuffed me in the box, that little slut just now? ”

He asked a barrage of questions.

Yao Yu didn't intend to answer him.

"Let me ask you, how much money did Dad spend and what position did he buy you?"

Yao Qin was stunned for a moment, and said angrily: "Yao Yu! Why don't you let me out quickly? What nonsense! ”

"Huh."

Yao Yu sneered briefly and closed the box with a "snap".

The moment the lid fell, he heard Yao Qin's screams.

After a few moments, he reopened the box.

Yao Qin's face was pale, his eyes were as wide as eggs, and he lived like a strangled corpse.

When he saw Yao Yu's face again, he almost cried and said, "Fifteen thousand taels!" Dad spent me 15,000 taels! ”

Yao Yu's heart sank straight down.

Even if his father has been a county guard for decades, the sum of the money given by the court is far from a fraction.

Over the years, his father has received a lot of bribes, but the Yao family's life is not luxurious, only Yao Qin spends money lavishly.

Yao Yu once calculated an account, even if there was only the silver sent by the Liu family for Liu Rusong, it could fully support Yao Qin's life of being drunk and gold-obsessed.

What will the rest of the bribes be used for?

Now, he understood.

Yao Qin pleaded: "It's just, it's just an idle job, it sounds good." Good brother, if you want to go, you can go. ”

Yao Yu said: "Who did you buy it?" ”

Yao Qin opened his mouth, but he couldn't answer.

His father only said that he had donated an official office to him and spent 15,000 taels of silver, so that he could stay honest after he arrived, and not waste this silver.

As for who Yao Junshou was looking for to open up the joint, Yao Qin didn't know at all.

Yao Yu nodded and said, "In this way, it seems that I can only ask my father in person." ”

Yao Qin looked at him with a frightened expression, most of the wine woke up, and said slowly: "Second brother, you let the eldest brother out first." ”

"Don't let go."

Yao Yu sneered, his face disdainful, as if mocking his stupidity.

There were several strong men dressed as small servants in the house.

As soon as Yao Qin saw someone, he hurriedly shouted, "Quick! Yao Yu is crazy! Hurry up and get Ben Gongzi out! ”

He stared at Yao Yu, swept to others with his peripheral vision, and said loudly: "You have arrested this madman!" This son has a lot of rewards! ”

But those people just stood silently behind Yao Yu.

Yao Yu smiled slightly, his face was gentle, and his cloth clothes could not hide the demeanor of a handsome son.

He smiled: "Big brother, you are still so stupid. ”

Tonight, while Yao Qin was unconscious, the musician stripped him of his coat and put him on, pretended to be a man, and tied him up and stuffed him into a box.

While the crowd was drinking and merry, the rakki pushed open the window and jumped into the river.

The black light was blinding, and Yao Qin's henchmen saw their master's clothes flickering by.

Some people shouted "The eldest prince has fallen into the water", and the others saw that the water surface was shattered, so they naturally did not have suspicions.

That musician was specially found by Yao Yu, not only has a beautiful appearance, but also comes from a fishing family and is well versed in water.

After falling into the water, the musician pretended to struggle for a moment, then swam away from the bottom of the boat and quietly swam to the side of another ship that had already been prepared.

Those little guys were concerned about the chaos, and they went into the water to find their sons.

But as soon as there were many people and Yao Qin was nowhere to be seen, they made a pot of porridge first.

Yao Yu's arranged subordinates took Yao Qin's henchmen to the downstream.

Those who stayed on the painting boat to clear the scene were all Yao Yu's henchmen who had bought in advance.

But Yao Yu didn't bother to tell Yao Qin about these.

His brother has been confused all his life, and it would be better for him to be a fool when he dies.

Yao Yu took a few steps back and said, "Let's do it." ”

A strong man brought a large basin of river water, and the others dragged Yao Qin out of the box.

Yao Qin shouted loudly: "What are you going to do! I'm the son of the county guard! ”

"That's a coincidence," Yao Yu smiled gently, "Me too." ”

Several strong men began to pour Yao Qin into drink.

Yao Qin was forced to drink several jars of wine, looked at Yao Yu drunkenly, and said inarticulately: "What's the matter? ”

His younger brother has been away from home for more than half a year.

How can everything be planned right tonight?

He, where did he get the manpower, where did he get the time?

Yao Yu smiled and said: "Big brother, I know that you have to swim in the river every year in the Mid-Autumn Festival, I know what kind of woman you like, and I know everything about you." ”

Money, Jiang Cong and Jiang Song gave him a lot.

As long as he has money, he can quickly buy competent people.

Yao Yu's mood became happy.

He stared at Yao Qin's distorted face and smiled, "Do you think I came back a few days in advance just to pretend to be a filial son in the temple?" ”

Yao Qin was half drunk and fell to the floor like a puddle of mud.

Someone asked, "Childe, will you throw him into the river now?" ”

Yao Qin wanted to struggle, but his hands and feet were padded with cotton and tied with silk, and no matter how he struggled, he would not leave a mark.

"Nope." Yao Yu said, "Drown, then throw it." ”

He didn't want to give Yao Qin any chance of escaping.

Yao Yu stood up with compassion on his face, "My eldest brother was drunk and fell into the water and drowned, and his nostrils and lungs were full of mud and sand from the river. ”

He stirred the murky river with satisfaction.

Yao Qin stared at his face in disbelief.

Yao Yu straightened his robe and smiled calmly: "I took care of my father at home tonight, and then my father was tired, so let me go back to my room to study." ”

"Big Brother has been drinking and having fun all night," his smile was particularly cruel, "Tomorrow morning, the people of the Yao Mansion will find Big Brother's body downstream." ”

Yao Qin vomited.

Yao Yu suddenly felt a little sad, lost and happy in his heart, and said softly: "Send my eldest brother on the road." ”
