Chapter Twenty-Three: The Little Ghost of Gulin Town
Yu Yi looked at her and couldn't help laughing. Bai Jiangyi also found that he was a little out of shape, and quickly wiped the tears from the corners of his eyes, and said softly: "Let His Royal Highness King Lin see and laugh." ”
"It doesn't matter."
Yu Yi paused after speaking, and said, "I'll go shopping with you." ”
Bai Jiangyi had already measured his body when he arrived in Baifu, and now he didn't have anything to do, so he also responded.
At first, the events of last night were always looming in the minds of the two, but slowly they were relieved, and the two reached a tacit understanding that no one mentioned it. The imperial capital in autumn is still very lively, and the streets are full of stalls, with everything to eat and play.
I had fun, but I also put the sadness in my heart behind me for the time being. Bai Jiangyi is also a greedy and playful girl, she wants to eat something she sees along the way, and always buys a lot of them for Yu Yi to help hold. I also like to join in the fun, I can stop for a long time when I see the performers, and I am even more afraid and want to see it when I see people breathing fire, so I simply hide behind Yu Yi and let him block it for him. There are still small animals sold on the street, and Bai Jiangyi likes it even more, and it took Yu Yi a long time to buy two little rabbits.
When shopping, Bai Jiangyi seems to have inexhaustible strength, always running in front, and from time to time he dislikes Yu Yi walking slowly. Yu Yi walked slowly, not slowly, to make sure she was within her sight. He felt that she was like an ascender, so dazzling and full of energy.
At this time, the two are like ordinary husband and wife, they don't have so many things on their minds, and they don't have any family hatred and national hatred. is just guarding his own side of the world and living his own little life.
After shopping for a long time, the two walked to the door of Ding'anju. Bai Jiangyi stopped.
After Yu Yi went out this morning, Wanrong also got up, and came to Ding'an Ju when she had nothing to do.
Ding'anju was originally a restaurant, but the owner of the restaurant made a mistake, so the building was charged to the treasury, and now it has been given to Bai Jiangyi and them. Therefore, the renovation of Ding'an House is much simpler than that of the Unified Investigation, and the main buildings will not change, at most it is just to build a stage and change the tables and chairs.
At this time, the plaque has been replaced, and it is written by His Majesty himself. Red letters on a black background.
Today, Ding'anju has already entered the new table and chair, and when the two arrived, Wanrong was holding the account book to the tables and chairs in and out, which was what Wanrong asked her for when Bai Jiangyi was in a daze in the morning.
"Sister Wanrong."
Bai Jiangyi shouted happily.
Wanrong raised her head and noticed the two people standing at the door, Bai Jiangyi was holding a candy man in his hand, and King Lin on the side had a large bag and a small bamboo cage, which also contained two rabbits. Wanrong raised the fan to her face and chuckled, then slowly walked in front of the two and saluted Yu Yi, who nodded in response as a greeting.
"Sister Wanrong, thank you for your hard work." Bai Jiangyi handed her one of the sugar figures in his hand and smiled brightly.
Wanrong took the sugar man, smiled and said softly: "It's not hard, it's lonely to stay alone, so I want to find something to do." I looked at the ledger, and all the immovable parts of the day before yesterday had been rectified, and all the new tables and chairs will be in today. After that, we will start recruiting," Wanrong paused and said with a smile: "Boss Bai." ”
Bai Jiangyi was a little embarrassed to be called like this for the first time, but Yu Yi helped to play the round: "Miss Wanrong, it's time for lunch soon, if it's almost over, let's eat together." ”
Bai Jiangyi also rode a donkey downhill and nodded repeatedly: "Let's take a look at the Tongcha Mansion first, and then let's eat together." ”
Wanrong was not easy to refuse, so she also agreed. After that, Yu Yi handed over all the things in his hand to the accompanying guards, and asked him to send the things back to the Linwang Mansion first, and then come back to pick them up. After the guards left, the three of them also set off for the Tongcha Mansion. Wanrong is a very well-behaved woman, not to mention that in front of King Lin, there is nothing inappropriate in her words and deeds. However, Bai Jiangyi's assimilation power was too strong, and after a while, the two of them went shopping on their own, leaving only Yu Yi alone to walk forward slowly.
The construction of the Tongchafu is progressing very quickly, and now the dungeon has been almost repaired, and above-ground works have begun.
Bai Jiangyi's drawings were very finely drawn, and all the workers on the site could understand them. At first, Bai Jiangyi was a little worried about coming to see it every day, but later found that the workers didn't need to worry about it at all, and the craftsmanship was very professional, so Bai Jiangyi changed one trip a day to one trip every three days. And every time I come, I just want to see if there is any mistake in the process, so today is the same, as soon as I arrived at the unified inspection house, Bai Jiangyi went into the scene and communicated with the workers. Yu Yi was outside with the person in charge of the site facing the materials on the scene.
Wanrong looked at the two of them and felt a little funny, especially Bai Jiangyi, who was just a child who had been playing, and when it came to business, he changed quite quickly. Bai Jiangyi's dress is simple and eye-catching, which is incompatible with this scene full of engineering materials, but it is precisely because of this that it is more beautiful.
A beauty that makes some people can't take their eyes off it.
Wanrong looked at the king of Wang's wife, and wanted to laugh very much. It's just that the two of them were close for fear that their laughter would be discovered, so in order to save His Highness's face, they still held back.
It just so happened that Bai Jiangyi had already checked it almost, and trotted all the way over with his skirt in his hands. Yu Yi also withdrew his eyes in time. Wanrong still couldn't help but chuckle, and was being caught by Bai Jiangyi.
"Sister Wanrong, what are you laughing at?"
glanced at Bai Jiangyi, and then looked up at King Lin. Wanrong was about to say that it was nothing, but Yu Yi took the lead.
Yu Yi may be afraid that Wanrong will not save face for herself, so she immediately changed the topic: "Let's go, let's eat." ”
Bai Jiangyi didn't have much to think about at this time, so Yu Yiyi was brought over as soon as he changed the topic. The three of them were about to leave, and the streets were filled with the sound of horses' hooves and the neat pace of marching troops. Then the Shen family rode a horse and took Mo Linwei to appear in everyone's field of vision.
Mo Linwei marched very neatly, and the pace of more than 300 people was like that of one person. It's just that the Unified Investigation Mansion is still in operation, so Mo Linwei can't carry weapons when he enters the city.
Bai Jiangyi saw this scene and immediately hid behind Yu Yi, Mo Linwei walked to Yu Yi and stood still, Shen Jiayi also turned over and dismounted to salute Yu Yi, and saluted Wanrong.
"You are Wanrong girl, in the Shen family."
Wanrong returned the salute: "Taiwei Shen, look up for a long time." ”
Yu Yi interrupted the two: "What are you doing here with the army?" As soon as the Shen family collected his temperament, he arched his hand and said: "General, the construction period of the Tongcha Mansion is a little rushed, so I will bring my brothers to help......
The Shen family paused, smiled, smiled very ill-intentionedly, and did not continue. Yu Yi looked at the smiling Shen Jiayi and asked, "What else do you want to do?" ”
Shen Jiayi still didn't speak, just coughed lightly. The soldiers behind him shouted in unison as if they had received some order: "Naturally, look at the general's wife." ”
As soon as these words came out, Bai Jiangyi's face instantly turned red to the root of his ears, but Yu Yi didn't expect them to come out like this, and he didn't know whether to be angry or happy. But he still noticed that Bai Jiangyi was a little stage frightened, so he still pretended to be angry: "Nonsense! ”
As soon as the words fell, Mo Linwei was also immediately silenced, and Shen Jiayi also stretched his sleeves and saluted: "My subordinates know their mistakes, please punish the general." ”
As soon as he heard the punishment, Bai Jiangyi still felt that it was unnecessary, and raised his hand to poke Yu Yi's back, meaning that he didn't have to be angry. Yu Yi naturally wouldn't really punish them for these things, and it just so happened that Bai Jiangyi also gave himself a step down.
"In the future, the construction of the unified investigation house will be hard for everyone." Yu Yi said in a deep voice.
"Don't give up!" Mo Linwei shouted in unison.
Yu Yi smiled and added: "The princess is also one of the heads of the Unified Investigation Mansion, and everyone will help more in the future." ”
When Mo Linwei heard this, they also knew that their general was not really angry, but at this time, they didn't dare to make any more inches, so they still responded "yes" in unison, and there was no other mistake.
After half a month, life seems to have entered a cycle, which is both calm and lively. Bai Jiangyi still slept lazily every day, and after waking up, he either dealt with Shen Xuan and others in Ding'an or supervised the work in the Tongcha Mansion, and did not return to the house with Wanrong until it was dark. Mo Linwei also quickly got along with this beautiful and lively general's wife, and Bai Jiangyi naturally liked these straightforward rough men, so he also changed the frequency of going to the Tongcha Mansion back to one day a day.
And Yu Yi still goes to the court every day, Bai Jiangyi goes back to eat at the house for lunch, and Bai Jiangyi eats with Queen An Di'an in the palace when he is not there. If there is nothing going on in the palace, I will go to the Tongcha Mansion to take a look.
After dinner, Yu Yi and Bai Jiangyi both like to go for a walk in the garden, and the two often meet. So the two also walked and chatted together, Bai Jiangyi talked a lot, and would tell Yu Yi that what unreliable things Shen Xuan did in Ding'an Ju today was handled by himself, and the soldiers of the Tongcha Mansion told her what interesting things in the army today, so I wanted to check with Yu Yi to verify whether it was true. Yu Yi is also very patient, and will tell her some things that Bai Jiangyi does not understand in the mouths of the soldiers.
The two seemed to have a lot of things to say, and they always chatted until late at night before Yu Yi sent her back to the room.
Today is the same, after Yu Ye sent Bai Jiangyi back to the room, he didn't stay long, and returned to the study alone.
As soon as he sat down, Zheng Bingzhou's voice came from the door: "General, I found it." ”
Yu Yi frowned and let Zheng Bingzhou into the study. Zheng Bingzhou seemed to have rushed back day and night, and his body was dusty. Zheng Bingzhou stood in front of the bookcase and saluted: "General." ”
"Let's have a hot cup of tea, shall we?" Yu also poured a cup of hot tea for Zheng Bingzhou, and Zheng Bingzhou also drank it all, breathed a long sigh of relief, and his body felt much warmer.
Yu Yi didn't care much, poured tea for Zheng Bingzhou and poured it for himself, and then asked, "How is the situation?" ”
Zheng Bingzhou straightened up and said, "It took some time to find out the locations of all the secret trading places in the imperial capital, and I visited them one by one, but there were no clues. It wasn't until three days ago that a gentle incense appeared in the last secret trading place, which was bought by a wealthy businessman in Yizhou. So I sent someone to follow the buyer, and I followed the seller. The seller walked around the city all night before daring to go out of the city gate. When I got out of town, I arrested him and asked him where he came from. ”
Zheng Bingzhou said that he picked up the tea bowl again, warmed his body, and continued: "According to his confession, this thing was obtained in the ghost market of Gulin Town, and the ghost market of Gulin will be held on the fifteenth day of every month. The seller said that it was the first time he had seen this thing, and the gentle fragrance that gave him a foreign accent. I also help him make money. ”
"Foreign accents..."
Yu Yi repeated, lowered his eyes and fell into thought. There was only the sound of a candle burst in the room, and Yu Yi picked up the tea bowl and stared at the tea soup for a long time.
"What about the people caught?"
Zheng Bingzhou seemed to know that Yu Yiding would ask this, and said, "It's in the courtyard." ”
Yu Yi nodded: "You are alone, no one on the way back to the city wants to get rid of him, which means that the other party may not have found out." You go and ask for all the details of the transaction, tomorrow it's the fifteenth, and we'll go for a trip. ”
Zheng Bingzhou didn't ask much, and after answering, he drank the tea in the tea bowl and retreated.
On the second day, after Yu Yi finished going to the court, he went to Ding'anju to find Bai Jiangyi, and told her that she might come back late today, so that she could rest early and not have to wait for herself. Then he went into the study with Shen Jiayi and Zheng Bingzhou and didn't come out until dark.
There are many goods in the ghost market that are not visible from the source, and many sellers dare not sell them themselves. All in the ghost market, there is an organization that specializes in selling goods for sellers, and calls themselves "little ghosts" to mean doing things for the people in the ghost market. The person Zheng Bingzhou brought back last night was a little ghost. Since it is an organization, it gives Yu Ye an opportunity to find the holder of gentle incense as a ghost tonight.
Yu Yi also found the waist card of the little ghost on the person to prove his identity, and after the three of them were ready, they rode out of the imperial capital and went to Gulin Town.
