Chapter 10 Clues

At the beginning of the founding of the Great Song Dynasty, it has been promulgated that "ban on paving cui", don't look at a few pieces of jewelry, the cost of tens of thousands of green feathers also means how many creatures are hunted and killed, and there are countless manpower, material and financial resources during the period.

Princess Fuyi didn't notice it at all, and looked left and right to play, "This time the color is good."

"Your Highness, do you still have it there?" Xie Yi's heart tightened

"Cai Jing is used to flattery, but he sent a lot of them before and after" Zhao Xian thought that he felt good-looking, and even thought that it would be better to send some to Xie Fanfan as a personal favor, so he generously put it out for her to choose.

The eyes are full of greenery, and the poor are extremely luxurious.

Xie Fanfanwan thanked her, she didn't know why Princess Yongqing had been reprimanded by Taizu, and now Zhao Xian accepted such bad karma and turned a blind eye to the official family, but the number was too large, and even the official family might not have thought of it.

However, what worries Xie Yi even more is that in this famine year, Quzhou is seriously affected by disasters and starvation, so the palace saves money, and even the specifications of the banquet have been lowered.

The Cai family is responsible for the relief of the victims, if there are some sporadic dirty accounts, such a huge expenditure in addition to the salary where does it come from, and what is even more strange is what the plan is to give such a generous gift to the princess.

Before leaving the palace, Xie Fanfan specially went to the palace of the concubine to thank Master Li. It turns out that the so-called Lan Yan is an official family, so I really don't know how much Cai You is hiding from himself.

Leaving the palace gate, Xie Yi frowned.

"Since my brother is worried, why didn't you tell the princess directly just now?"

"She has always been high-spirited and can't listen to advice, if she says it too clearly, it will make her unhappy," Xie Yi pondered.

After returning home, Xie Fanfan followed his brother's instructions and traced the appearance of those dotted green things with his extraordinary memory.

"Yes, the penmanship is familiar, the materials and craftsmanship are recorded in detail, it seems that there is still progress in these days" Xie Yi smiled slightly.

"That's, don't look at who my sister I am" Xie Fanfan's heart is like wiping honey, as long as she can help her brother, she never cares how much hard work she pays, just as her memory and painting skills are honed when she accompanied her brother to fight everywhere, and these practices to today's level are not as simple as rubbing fingers against the brush to grind blood and overusing the brain or even fainting when practicing.

He Ming secretly searched according to Xie Yi's instructions, and only then did he know that there was a handicraft workshop ten miles away, which was specially designed to provide a way to buy and sell some disgraceful luxury items for dignitaries and nobles, and build bridges to earn the difference. If it is really money from unknown sources, how can the amount be hidden and disappear in front of everyone.

After many days of fruitless investigation, He Ming was sent by Xie Yi to the suburbs of Beijing to investigate the disaster.

Thinking that before he left, he said that a number of "Changsheng shops" had recently sprung up on the market out of thin air, probably a place to borrow money, and the business was very hot, Xie Fanfan faintly felt that there would be some kind of connection between the two.

The legs and feet of the waiter were weak, and the person was pushed to the front of the cabinet after an hour passed next to the person.

"What does the girl want to be?" asked the little maid through the high cabinet door.

Xie Fanfan mysteriously stretched out his hand and took out a copper coin and handed it over, Chao Feng stared at the copper coin for a moment, except that the plum pattern was engraved on the border, which was no different from ordinary coins, and then waved his hand to beckon people to come to discuss in pairs and respectfully invite her to wait in the courtyard.

"The eldest lady is so down, Xie Mansion has to be worth to maintain the middle feed in the house?" Cai You is still as happy as ever.

"Cai You, where did I offend you, I have to get along with me" The last person Xie Fanfan wanted to see was him.

"No, I haven't seen you for many days, and I miss it very much, so I show a little care"

"Eventful!"

"Cai Changgongzi came here, and he missed the distance" The fat-headed and big-eared person next to him is called a person who sees six ways and listens to all directions. Obviously busy collecting money, and still thinking about them. Seeing that the two of them were talking and knew that they were nobles of the imperial court, "This must be the eldest lady of Xie Fu, and the disdainful house is really full of brilliance to welcome the two nobles" A pair of worldly and sleek, the gold-inlaid teeth shined in the sun.

In the year of the disaster, the people were forced to pledge goods in exchange for money, but the rich and noble families would not pawn large quantities of luxury goods no matter how poor they were, and they were all sold at very low prices, and the taxes in the stores were also surprisingly high.

She did everything possible to buy plum blossom coins from the black market, and she wanted to try her luck with it, and took the princess's reward for the emerald feather hairpin privately, so as to find out the reactions of these people, and now they are all disturbed by him.

Looking at Cai You's narrow phoenix eyes, he couldn't vent his anger in his heart, and Xie Fanfan could only think of another way.

The full moon hung high, and the watchman shrank down the street, and the sturdy man in black walked on the wall under the silver glow and disappeared in the sea of buildings.

The backyard of the quality shop is very empty, only a gatehouse is closed, seeing the night patrol people passing by, in a hurry to get into the dog hole everywhere and curl up into a ball, holding his breath, and only when the footsteps are far away will he carefully climb out and accidentally knock his head, with a big bag of painful drill heart. Over the years, the rivers and lakes have learned a lot of skills, but they are not good at learning arts, to put it mildly, the family style of the Xie family has been defeated by this eldest lady, and she is a rebellious leader. What kind of bone shrinking skill, picking the lock and walking the window, snapping open, Xie Fanfan carefully looked at the treasury of this gold carving and jade carving, it was really terrifying, and any treasure was worth a fortune.

It's just that the soft object came from nowhere, and the whole person fell on it as soon as the soles of his feet slipped, and he couldn't stomp twice.

How can this thing move? Xie Fanfan was a little dazed, and before he could react, he felt a coldness in his neck, the bright knife was close to his skin, and his throat couldn't help but swallow.

At that moment, the bright light from nowhere reflected on the piercing eyes of the knife side, and he could barely see a pair of familiar delicate eyebrows.

"Coincidentally, meet again"

The man was masked, his voice was clear and cold, she was stunned, and kicked him in the crotch, the man frowned and groaned for a moment but never let go of the blade he was holding.

"Hell" The familiar voice Xie Fanfan just knew that it was him, so he looked resentful.

"Don't get excited, come here late at night, I'm afraid I have other plans?" Cai Yu looked at it in the dark.

"What's your business?"

"Alas! The girls still don't do more things like stealing chickens and dogs, and they have a bad reputation. Cai You sneered, he just likes to have nothing to do and quarrel in the end, and he can't please the slightest good, a proper masochist.

Speaking of fame, Xie Fanfan remembered the previous incident and had a ghost in his stomach.

While pushing him away and letting him roll, he stepped on it violently while he was not paying attention, causing the surname Cai to have a hideous face and howl miserably.

"What are you calling, I'm not afraid of being discovered" Cai You thinks that this woman's ability to beat a rake is absolutely amazing, obviously she is the victim, blame him?

The guard outside the door heard the sound and walked in this direction, and the footsteps were getting closer and closer, and he didn't have time to say more, covering her mouth and pulling the person into his arms, and clinging to the corner of the wall, so as to avoid the light from the lantern.

The scorching breath, the broad chest Xie Fanfan felt that his heartbeat was uncontrollable, and the covered lips transmitted the warmth of the palm, making his head inexplicably quiet and well-behaved.

After the people left, they were dragged away by him in a daze.

After a few steps, he noticed a movement in front of her, Cai You hurriedly signaled her to hide and not speak, and stepped forward cautiously step by step.
