Chapter 284: I know
Yushu picked up Ah Leopard, softly told Lao Yi to rest early, and instructed Yiying to take care of Lao Yi, so he went to the front hall with Ciye.
Yang Xiangye is admiring the freehand landscape on the wall with his hands behind his back. Those who are familiar with Luming Mountain will know at a glance that the painting is the scenery of Luming Mountain. The composition is very ingenious, revealing a corner of the mirror flower hermitage, which makes people can't help but want to get a glimpse of the whole picture, but they can't get their wish. The slight shortcomings achieve the unique artistic conception and connotation of the painting. After Yushu finished painting, she asked Dr. Long Scale to help her make the old Zhao Jin's idle chapter.
As soon as Yang Xiangye entered the front hall, he went straight to this painting. He has been collecting Zhao Jin's paintings for some years, but Zhao Jin is good at fine brushwork and rarely paints freehand. This freehand landscape is indeed a rare masterpiece.
It's a pity not his.
Yang Xiangye scratched his heart with a hundred claws, and what he was thinking about over and over again in his mind was how to keep this painting for himself. Yang Xiangye heard the sound of footsteps behind him, knew that Xie Jiulang had arrived, turned around, and saw the leopard in Xie Jiulang's arms.
The kitten is snow-white and has big shiny eyes.
Yang Xiangye's heart sank. He was naturally afraid of cats and dogs. But in front of Xie Jiulang, he couldn't show his timid side, so Yang Xiangye pretended to be calm, pulled the corners of his mouth with a smile, and called: "Xie Langjun." ”
"Yang Xiangye is fine." Xie Jiulang handed Ah Bao over to Ciye, and gave Yang Chengxiang a deep look at the rules.
Regardless of whether the two of them have the same political views, whether Yang Xiangye has ever created rumors about her, and at Xie Jiulang's age, Yang Xiangye should have more respect.
Prime Minister Yang hurriedly returned the salute.
The two saluted, and the guests and hosts sat down. Xie Jiulang took Ah Leopard over again, hugged it and talked to Yang Xiangye.
As soon as Yang Xiangye raised his nose and smelled it, he smelled the cat smell and fishy smell on Ah Leopard's body, some of the smell, which made Yang Xiangye a little nervous.
A leopard has always been loved by others, whether it is Deng Xuan or Clumsy Weng or Bailiji, Huacun likes kittens and is willing to be close to it. Yushu didn't know that Yang Xiangye was afraid of cats. Therefore, Yushu was just strange that Yang Xiangye's demeanor was unnatural, and she never thought that the reason why Yang Xiangye was like this was all caused by A Leopard.
The maidservant served refreshments, and Yang Xiangye saw that it was a good top, so he deliberately didn't look at Ah Bao, picked up the teacup, and took a sip.
The hot tea soup fell into the stomach, and Yang Xiangye's mind was ironed with liver and gallbladder.
"Does Yang Xiangye also like Zhao Niangzi's paintings?" Xie Jiulang pointed to the freehand landscape and asked knowingly.
If Yang Xiangye didn't like it, he wouldn't have spent a lot of money to buy her paintings.
Yang Xiangye was stunned for a moment, and then said with a smile: "Coming to Xie Langjun's mansion, it is a blessing to be able to get such a masterpiece to fill my eyes, it is a blessing, a blessing." ”
Yang Xiangye has been in the officialdom for so many years, and he has dealt with it without leakage. Xie Jiulang smiled with him.
"Yang Xiangye's sudden visit is not just as simple as appreciating paintings, right?" Xie Jiulang's fingers wrapped around the tip of the kitten's tail, smiling cutely, but what he said was not so polite.
"Ahh That's how it goes. Yang Xiangye wanted to talk to Xie Jiulang about his intentions first, but he didn't expect Xie Jiulang to be unwilling to beat around the bush, so he opened his mouth and asked, which made him a little embarrassed.
Yang Xiangye said haha, and tossed back and forth in his heart a few times to make a thorough plan.
"I heard that there was an assassin in front of the Xie Mansion at noon, assassinating His Royal Highness the King of Jin......"
Xie Jiulang frowned and intercepted Yang Xiangye's words, "It's true that there are assassins, but they are coming for me, not Liuli." Didn't Qianniuwei already catch the assassin? I suppose the bones of the assassin are not as hard as the torture instruments of the prison of the Ministry of Punishment, right? With a little interrogation, you can ask a clear question. ”
Hearing this, the corners of Yang Xiangye's eyes throbbed.
On closer examination, this was the first time he had direct contact with Xie Jiulang. Before he came, Bai Lichen reminded him that Xie Jiulang was different from ordinary talented people, and he must not be underestimated. Yang Xiangye had seen Xie Jiulang's eloquence in Yongning Palace, and he was already careful. didn't think about it, but let Xie Jiulang find out the mistakes and omissions.
Yang Xiangye paused for a moment, simply skimmed the opening remarks, and went straight to the point.
"Xie Langjun's steward in the mansion is injured, isn't he?"
"Well, it's a pretty serious injury." Xie Jiulang's brows furrowed into Sichuan characters.
What is Old Yang Tou here for? Speaking of it, it all revolves around the assassins, is it possible that the old man is easy to get hurt, and the court will treat him? If that's the case, you should take the imperial doctor with you.
"Oh, oh. It's a serious injury. Beads of sweat oozed from the corners of Yang Xiangye's forehead.
That's how it can be good. The maid in the princess's mansion smashed a few dead things of Xie Jiulang, so Xie Jiulang carried the low table and took the servant to write the pleading. The big living person is injured, Xie Jiulang still can't turn the sky upside down?!
Lao Teng definitely deliberately dug a pit for him to jump! Yang Xiangye's face wrinkled into bitter gourd.
Teng Bin, Bai Lichen and Cha Qingyuan finished interrogating the assassins, and Cha Qingyuan entered the palace with a confession. Before leaving, Cha Qingyuan said: "Look at Xie Jiulang, don't go to the east gate to mess around early in the morning." ”
When Teng Bin heard this, he immediately remembered it.
There are no impermeable walls. King Xiang bought the assassins, Xie Jiulang would know sooner or later. At present, His Majesty the Emperor has not yet given a conclusion, if Xie Jiulang really repeats his old tricks and openly writes a pleading, wouldn't it be tantamount to roasting His Majesty the Emperor on the fire again?
Teng Bin wanted to persuade Xie Jiulang to be restless, but he had no friendship with Xie Jiulang. Because Bai Lichen was presiding over the case, he had to avoid suspicion, and he couldn't get along with Xie Jiulang very closely, and after discussing it, the two thought of Prime Minister Yang Cheng. The two of them sat down and went to Prime Minister Yang's mansion, complained to Yang Xiangye, and put on countless high hats for him.
Yang Xiangye is beautiful, and the joy is coming.
After only saying two words, Yang Xiangye regretted it. Xie Jiulang seemed to know everything in his heart. I tried to fool him, but I couldn't.
However, Yang Xiangye regretted it too late, so he had to continue to be a lobbyist.
"That's a coincidence. I brought a thousand-year-old ginseng, and I hope Xie Langjun will accept it with a smile. "Yang Xiangye can't come empty-handed, he took out the thousand-year-old ginseng stored in the warehouse as a favor.
"Yang Xiangye is too polite." Xie Jiulang's brows stretched slightly.
"Your Majesty has his own opinions on the matter of assassins, Xie Langjun only needs to wait quietly, and there is no need to work Xie Langjun to run around." Yang Xiangye carefully considered the words and said cautiously.
It turned out that she was afraid that she would go to the east gate to cry out for injustice. When Xie Jiulang heard this, he couldn't help but want to laugh. She deliberately straightened her face and said seriously: "Is it okay not to run around?" The steward of my house has been seriously wounded, and I, as the master, must seek justice for him no matter what! ”
It's over, it's over! Xie Jiulang is addicted to writing pleadings! How good is that?!
Yang Xiangye hurriedly persuaded him, "Xie Langjun, don't worry, you listen to me and tell you carefully......"
"Yang Xiangye must know who bought the assassin, otherwise, he would not have been busy with this matter. I also asked Yang Xiangye to hide it, tell the mastermind behind the scenes, and I can also go to the government to shout wronged. ”
I'm really afraid of something, Xie Jiulang really wants to sue for injustice.
"Please also ask Xie Langjun to be patient and listen to me, okay?"
Xie Jiulang put on a reasonable posture and said in a deep voice: "Yang Xiangye, please speak." ”
"As for the mastermind behind the scenes, it is inconvenient to reveal it to Xie Langjun now, but His Majesty will definitely punish him severely, but not now." What Yang Xiangye said was very vague, Xie Jiulang caught Yang Xiangye's negligence, pretended to be suddenly enlightened, and said, "I know!" ”
