Chapter 481

After listening to the explanation of the Tianyan personnel, Tang Yin nodded and asked again: "What did Lord Jiang do during his time in Beijing?" "Drink and eat!" The young man replied truthfully: "Lord Jiang eats and drinks with the ministers of the court almost every day. "Oh!" Tang Yin snorted and said, "If that's the case, Lord Jiang is also quite hard in Beijing. "Yes, yes, yes!" The young man didn't dare to say more, just nodded vigorously, but he silently added in his heart: If getting drunk every day is called hard work, then Jiang Lu is indeed extremely hard.

Guided by the Tianyan staff, Tang Yin went up to the third floor and stopped in front of the door of an upper room, and the young man whispered: "My lord, Lord Jiang lives in this room. Tang Yin answered, gently pushed down the door, and the door immediately slid open, and there was no lock inside. Tang Yin paused slightly, pushed the door and entered. As soon as I entered the room, I was greeted by a strong smell of alcohol, which choked people's noses. Lotte and Jiang Fan frowned secretly, and followed Tang Yin and approached.

People who didn't see Jiang Lu heard his heavy snoring first, Tang Yin walked slowly to the end of the room, bypassed the screen, raised his eyes and looked, only to see Jiang Lu didn't even take off his clothes, his limbs were wide open, lying on the bed and sleeping with his head covered, Tang Yin walked up to him and called in a low voice: "Jiang Lu, Jiang Lu?" called twice, Jiang Lu was unresponsive, Tang Yin had no choice but to increase his voice, and called again: "Jiang Lu Jiang Lord!" Jiang Lu seemed to be sincerely against Tang Yin, no matter how he shouted, he just didn't react.

Seeing this, Lotte hurriedly stepped forward and pushed Jiang Lu hard, seeing that he was sleeping like a dead pig and not waking up, he reached out and pinched Jiang Lu's nose, and closed his mouth slightly hard. After a short time, Jiang Lu couldn't breathe, grunted twice in her throat, didn't swallow a mouthful of spit, choked on her throat, and began to cough violently. This cough, the person also woke up, he wanted to inhale, but he couldn't breathe in the air, he wanted to open his mouth, but his mouth was locked by someone, this time, Jiang Lu completely sobered up, he opened his eyes, subconsciously turned over from the bed and sat up, and said in shock and horror: "Who dares to come to murder me?" As soon as his words fell, Tang Yin, who was standing in front of the bed, put his hands behind his back, lowered his head, and said slowly: "Lord Jiang, I am not here to murder you, but to visit you!" Hearing the words, Jiang Lu's body was shocked, raised his eyes to look at Tang Yin, after seeing Tang Yin's appearance clearly, he seemed to still be a little disbelieving his eyes, rubbed hard, and looked at Tang Yin again, this time he was 100% sure that he was not dazzled, he was still a little drunk and was scared in an instant, he was like a leather ball, rolled directly from the bed to the ground, knelt on the ground, and shouted urgently: "No...... The lower official didn't know that the adult had arrived, and he missed the distance, and he was ...... I hope that adults will not be surprised!" Tang Yin looked at Jiang Lu with a smile and said softly: "Jiang Lu?" "Xia Guan is here!" "Get up!" As he spoke, Tang Yin walked to the window, waved his hand to push the window open, so that the air in the room could circulate, and then he took a deep breath of the fresh air outside the window, turned his head, restrained his smile, looked at Jiang Lu, and asked, "Jiang Lu, how are the things I told you are doing?" Jiang Lu knelt on the ground and didn't dare to get up immediately, hung his head, his eyes rolled, and said quietly: " Since the lower officials arrived in the capital, they have been making friendships with the ministers of the court and getting closer, and the purpose of this is precisely to promote their lords ......" Before he could finish speaking, Tang Yin had already cut off his words impatiently. He doesn't want to listen to these meaningless processes, but to know what the outcome is. He raised his head and said, "Let's get to the point!" "Oh......" Jiang Lu groaned, and said cautiously: "Through my contact with many ministers in the past few days, I have said a lot of good things for my lordship, but if I want those imperial ministers to support my lordship, ...... There are also shortcomings owed. Tang Yin raised his eyebrows and asked, "What is missing?" Jiang Lu swallowed and foamed with difficulty.

Tang Yin's face sank at first, then he smiled again, and asked with a smile: "Jiang Lu, when you left Yancheng, you brought a lot of gold and treasures, right?" "Yes, my lord!" Jiang Lu's face broke out in a cold sweat, and he said tremblingly: "Twenty thousand taels of gold, fifteen treasures." "Where's the stuff?" "The gold has been spent, and the treasures have been given away, but ...... The effect was minimal. "If I'm not mistaken, I later gave you nearly ten thousand taels of gold. Tang Yin said quietly.

"Yes, but ...... But all that gold has also been spent! My lord, the price of going to Beijing is too expensive, and if you want to invite the ministers of the DPRK and the central government to dinner, you can only go to the best restaurant in the capital, and you have to invite courtesans, maiko, and so on, and every time you spend it, it is not a small amount, so ...... The gold is spent very quickly......" Tang Yin couldn't help laughing, but he laughed angrily, he said faintly: "After spending so much gold, there is no progress, Lord Jiang, I have to wonder if you are doing things for me, or are you using my gold to fill your own pocket?" Hearing this, Jiang Lu trembled with fright, his bones were weak, and he almost collapsed on the ground. He shouted repeatedly: "Wronged, wronged! My lord, even if the lower officials have the courage to deceive you, let alone use the adult's money to fill their own pockets......" Tang Yin wanted to speak, but his brows suddenly wrinkled, he tilted his head sideways and was silent for a moment, then turned around and walked to Lotte, stretched out his hand, put his palm into Lotte's waist, and pulled out the sword hidden in his clothes, and the words changed, his tone became soft and cold, and said: " Some people think that they act in a hidden way and do not show traces, but there is an impermeable wall in the world, if you want people not to know, you have nothing to do unless you do!" As he spoke, Tang Yin's palm emitted a thick black mist, shrouding the sword body of the steel sword, and immediately fused into one, and the sword body with the flickering cold light also turned jet black.

At this time, even a blind person could see that Tang Yin had moved his true qi, and the murder emanating from his body made the air in the entire room almost freeze, making people feel suffocated.

Jiang Lu looked at the spirit sword in Tang Yin's hand, and listened to his words, the three souls and seven spirits who were frightened were about to fly out of his body, his snot and tears flowed down together, and he wailed in a trembling voice: "My lord, the lower official didn't speak, he really didn't lie to you......" Before he finished speaking, Tang Yin's face was completely gloomy, and the murderous intent revealed on his body was even stronger, without warning, his arm shook, and the spirit sword in his palm came out of his hand. It's just that his spirit sword was not stabbed at Jiang Lu in front of him, but shot at the wall behind him.

There was a muffled sound in the ear chakra, and the spirit sword stabbed the wall, directly piercing the wall, and at the same time, a short and slight exclamation came from outside the wall.

This exclamation shocked both Lotte and Jiang Fan's bodies, and the two were only slightly stunned for a moment, and then immediately realized that someone outside the room was eavesdropping, and the two of them jumped on the windowsill and raised their eyes to look out.

The room was on the third floor, and the outside was completely suspended, and when the two of them went up to the windowsill to peek in, there was only half a figure outside, and only the tip of the steel sword piercing the wall was exposed.

Lotte had sharp eyes, did not ignore the drop of blood that fell from the tip of the sword, he stretched out his fingers, caught the blood bead, wiped it slightly, and handed it to his nose to sniff carefully, confirming that it was human blood, he returned to the room, and said to Tang Yin: "My lord, the eavesdropper outside the room has been injured and ran!" "Ran away?" Tang Yin raised his eyebrows and asked, "Where did you run?" "I didn't see it, there was not even a shadow of a person in the garden outside and downstairs!" At this time, Jiang Fan also jumped down from the windowsill and said to Tang Yin.

The expression on Tang Yin's face did not change, but he took a secret breath in his heart, the corners of his mouth were slightly raised, and he said faintly: "No matter how deep the other party's cultivation is and how fast he runs, even if he is not injured, it is impossible to lose his trace in such a short period of time, there is only one explanation ......for this" "The other party is a secret cultivator!" Lotte and Jiang Fan's eyes widened, revealing a shocking light, and they said in unison. Aside from the fact that the shadow drift of the Shadow Spirit Martial could instantly flash into their line of sight, the two of them couldn't think of anything else that could make them do that.

That's right, the other party can run so fast, only a dark cultivator can do it. Dark cultivators don't come to him for no reason, it seems that this matter must have something to do with that iron card. Tang Yin thought of this, Lotte and Jiang Fan also thought of it, but the two of them did not have Tang Yin's quiet concentration, and the two of them were shocked at the same time: "My lord, will it be ......" Tang Yin raised the two of them and said indifferently: "I know." Jiang Lu, who was still kneeling on the ground, was simply dumbfounded, he thought that he was going to die this time, but he didn't know that Tang Yin's sword was not aimed at himself, and the words just now were not aimed at himself, it was a complete false alarm. "Your Excellency...... Outside...... This...... What the hell is going on?" Tang Yin turned his head, looked at Jiang Lu, and said with a smile: "Jiang Lu, get up!" "Ah, yes, yes, my lord!" Jiang Lu pinched his cuffs, wiped the sweat on his face, and it took a long time to barely get up from the ground.

Tang Yin looked around at everyone and said, "It seems that trouble has come to the door, we can't stay in Shangjing for a long time, the sooner we leave, the better." Lotte and Jiang Fan, who knew what was at stake, hurriedly nodded and responded: "What the adults said is extremely true!" Jiang Lu couldn't understand what was going on, but he could also feel that there were Lingwu masters eyeing him, and he might also plot against Tang Yin.

At this time, Tang Yin asked him, "Jiang Lu, in your estimation, if you want to buy an important minister, how much gold will it cost?"
