Gongsun Jin deliberately sold a pass, stretched out three fingers and shook it, "Do you want to know?" Three hundred taels. ”

"The teacher is already so poor?" Jiang Huaiyin sneered, "I sent you to Beijing to take the exam, and I couldn't take it for just three hundred taels?" ”

Gongsun Jin spread his hands, "If I can't pass the fame test, he won't even recognize me as a son, do you think he will give me money?" ”

Jiang Huaiyin had no interest in the trivial matters of the Gongsun family, took out a silver ticket with a cold face, and threw it to Gongsun Jin, "The silver is not taken for nothing, you are in the Guozijian, near the water, and investigate a person for me." ”

"Who?" Gongsun Jin firmly took the silver ticket worth one hundred taels, and the corners of his lips twitched.

It didn't meet my expectations, but it was rich enough.

Jiang Huaiyin raised his eyes, his eyes were deep: "Li Hanshu!" ”

"Lai—oh, I remember!" Gongsun Jin just arrived in Guozijian a few days ago, and the most prominent of them was the youngest son of Li Xiang of the dynasty, Li Hanshu.

He said, "What to check?" ”

"Look it up and see what's weird." Jiang Huaiyin said.

Gongsun Jin was interested, rolled up his sleeves, and his eyes lit up, "Take people's money and eliminate disasters for others, and the matter will be wrapped up in me." But you're really not interested in Mrs. Sister-in-law's business? Three hundred taels with you, drizzle, right? ”

Jiang Huaiyin glanced at him clearly, "You don't want that silver ticket just now?" ”

Gongsun Jin hurriedly hugged himself tightly and covered the silver ticket in his arms, he knew that if he continued to wrestle, Jiang Huaiyin might really take back the silver ticket.

Then he said: "In the afternoon, I happened to hear someone in the Guozi Prison discussing his sister-in-law. Say that since you got married, you have never touched a finger of her! ”

Gongsun Jin said cautiously, observing Jiang Huaiyin's face all the time, and lowered his voice and said: "So my sister-in-law has a grudge, and there is nothing to be done, so I have to go to the palace to find the queen mother for help." ”

"Tsk." Gongsun Jin said distressedly: "I heard that I knelt in Cining Palace all day in the heavy snow!" People have fainted? It's not that I said, Brother Jiang, you are really ruthless! ”

Jiang Huaiyin raised his eyebrows lightly, and asked angrily: "Who did you listen to?" ”

"What for?" Gongsun Jin curled up in his chair and looked at him defensively, "Although I have a closer relationship with you, I won't do this kind of betrayal of my colleagues!" If you have to force me to do it, then three hundred taels will do! ”

Jiang Huaiyin sneered, "It seems that the teacher is right to let you take the merit test, otherwise with your temperament, you will definitely be in business." ”

The merchants, whose status in the Qianguo was not high, were widely discriminated against by scholars.

Looking at Gongsun Jin, who was bargaining in front of him, Jiang Huaiyin suddenly understood Teacher Gongsun.

Gongsun Jin carelessly cared, he smiled and said: "Don't change the topic, tell me, how did you endure the beauty of your sister-in-law who brought disaster to the country and the people without being moved?" ”

After a pause, Gongsun Jin seemed to have picked up some joke, and Chong Jiang Huaiyin said, "Is there any hidden disease?" ”

"Yelan!" Jiang Huaiyin snorted, "Blasting him out to this king, from now on, he will not be allowed to step into the palace for half a step!" ”

-

Night.

Yelan carried a man with a blue nose and swollen face into the dark and damp torture cell.

The man's expression was in a trance, his vision was blood-red, and he couldn't see where he was.

The man sitting in the center of the torture room, dressed in white, was noble and reserved, without any expression on his face, but he could feel extremely frightened.

"Regent, Your Royal Highness the Regent, I don't know what mistake the little one has made-"

The man was thrown by Yelan and fell to the ground.

He got up regardless of the pain, looking up at Jiang Huaiyin, who was carelessly coiling the Buddha beads in his hand, his bones trembling and frightened.

Jiang Huaiyin said faintly: "This king only asks you one question, who are you instructed by?" ”

He put away the Buddhist beads in his hand and looked at the man with a faint smile, "Don't worry, think about it and answer again, after all, you only have one chance." ”

The man's lips trembled, and he didn't know what he wanted to say just now, but in the eyes of Shangjiang Huaiyin, who seemed to see through everything, his words were stuck in his throat, and he couldn't open his mouth.

"I, the little one, please forgive your highness, I really didn't see the man's face clearly at that time, he was dressed in black and masked, and he only left with a silver ingot."

The man was seven feet tall, kneeling at Jiang Huaiyin's feet, like a child who had done something wrong, and begged bitterly: "The prince forgives me, he just asked the little one how long he hadn't seen the prince in the hunting ground, and the little one didn't think much about it——"

Jiang Huaiyin has read countless people, and he can tell whether what he said is true or false at a glance.

Knowing that he couldn't ask anything useful, he pinched his eyebrows, got up and said to Ye Lan: "Since this king said to give him a chance to live, that life will be kept." ”

Yelan arched her hand, "Yes." ”

The man breathed a sigh of relief, I am afraid it was a miracle that he was able to evacuate safely in the hands of the regent.

Who knew that this luck didn't last long, after Jiang Huaiyin disappeared, Ye Lan quickly pulled out the long knife at his waist and drew a few circles in the air at random, the movement was so fast that the man could only see the afterimage left by the green sword.

After a few breaths, the sword was sheathed.

Ye Lan said expressionlessly, "You can go." ”

"Huh?" The man was stunned for a moment, and hurriedly got up to leave, when he just exerted his hands and feet, he suddenly let out a miserable scream, "Ah! ”

His tendons and tendons are all broken!

On the same night, in a remote firewood house in a Gaomen mansion in the east of the city, the guard took the carrier pigeon in his hand and handed it to the old man in front of him.

The old man took off the letterhead, opened it to check, and his stretched brow tightened.

"When did the carrier pigeon receive it?"

The guard arched his hand and said, "Back to Xiangye, a quarter of an hour ago." ”

"Bang!" Li Xiang was angry and slammed his fist into the wall beside him.

In the dim firewood room, his eyes were like torches, and a cold glow appeared.

"Jiang, Huai, Yin!"

The guard didn't know why, "Xiangye, what's going on over there in Bashu?" ”

Li Xiang breathed crampedly, and raised his hand to interrupt him, "Arrange it, enter the palace immediately!" ”

Li Xiang knew that when Jiang Huaiyin was inspecting the hunting ground, he refused to show up for a long time, and there must be an engine behind it.

After thousands of calculations, I didn't guess that he went to Bashu along the waterway!

The plan that had been planned for many years was ruined, and what was even more annoying was that he had already gone to the hunting ground, but he was one step behind Jiang Huaiyin!

Li Xiang gritted his teeth and entered the palace, avoiding people's eyes and ears, and met with the emperor alone in the conservatory of the Palace of Nourishing Hearts.

The emperor had already gone to bed, dressed in a dragon robe, and his face was pale.

He was upside down with Concubine Li, and was disturbed halfway, so he naturally didn't have a good face.

"Li Xiang, it's better to give me a satisfactory reason, otherwise I will definitely be severely punished!"

"Your Majesty!" Li Xiang lifted off his black robe and knelt down deeply, "Weichen just got the news that Jiang Huaiyin has been to Bashu!" ”

"What?" The emperor got up, and his sleepy eyes suddenly cleared, "You went before you were ready?" ”

The emperor regretted not being at the beginning, and he had known that he would have sent more killers to lurk in Bashu!

"Yes!" Li Xiang said dejectedly: "Who knew that he hadn't mentioned Bashu for many years, but this time he suddenly acted secretly!" ”

The emperor pondered for a moment, "Seeing that he returned to Beijing safe and sound, presumably the entire army of Bashu was wiped out?" ”

Li Xiang nodded with a dismayed face, thought for a while, and said, "But in Weichen's opinion, his life is not long in coming." ”

The emperor pondered for a moment, walked down the steps to Li Xiang, and patted him on the shoulder.

Li Xiang raised his eyes, dared to look at the emperor, and the two looked at each other and smiled.

That's great news!
