Volume 2: One Look at the Alluring City, and then Look at the Allure Chapter 176: Another Strange Old Man
Seeing Yu Yi step forward, Bai Jiangyi fell down, and Yu Yi hugged her into his arms, and the fragrance that belonged to the white girl always made Yu Yi's heart ape.
"Don't mention it, didn't Wanrong go out with the fart worm yesterday, there are a lot of things that have not been dealt with in Ding'anju, so I have to go over to work as a coolie today, little girl."
After speaking, Bai Jiangyi rubbed his head against his chest and was coquettish.
Yu Yi stroked her long hair with a soft smile, in order to facilitate her work, Ah Ruan arranged a double braid hairstyle for her, playful and cute, she couldn't stop as soon as she got started: "I'm going to go to the Ministry of Engineering this morning, and I'm going to help you if I have nothing to do in the afternoon, how about it?" ”
"Hmm~" Bai Jiangyi raised his eyebrows and thought for a moment, "I'm afraid I won't be able to pay His Royal Highness's salary." ”
Yu Yi snorted and said, "You can owe it first." He looked into her eyes, his smile became meaningful, and he said word by word: "Slow, slow, yet." ”
Somehow, as soon as these words were spoken, Bai Jiangyi's mind was full of pictures of Yu Yi just getting out of the bath, although he hadn't seen it, but he couldn't help but have a rich imagination of Princess Lin.
Droplets of water that slide down the skin.
Broken hair against the forehead.
A firm chest.
Evenly distributed abs.
……
It turns out that Yu Yi is not the only one who has an ape heart.
Bai Jiangyi got up suddenly with a red face: "You! Come back after lunch! And also! I want to eat Fu Xiaoge's mung bean cake and bring it together! ”
After speaking, Bai Jiangyi ran away as soon as he slipped away, regardless of Yu Yi's expression behind him. It wasn't until he left the hospital that he slowed down, fanning his hand and trying to make his red face dissipate quickly.
"Ah, miss. You and your aunt ran out of breakfast so quickly? ”
Ah Ruan's voice behind him startled Bai Jiangyi, and when he turned around, he found that Ah Ruan was still holding buns and white porridge in his hand.
"Ahh Be. Bai Jiangyi's face was not red and his heart was not beating when he lied, "Let's go, Ding'an is still waiting for us." ”
Bai Jiangyi stepped forward and put down the things in Ah Ruan's hand, pulled her away.
"Ah, miss. This ......"
"Don't talk nonsense! Be careful that I deduct your wages! ”
"Oh......"
Ah Ruan thought to herself: My young lady has lost her money, what should I do? Very urgent!
was coquetted by Bai Jiangyi like this, and Yu Yi had no idea of practicing martial arts, so he also went out of the yard to find Niu Junyi. The fake silver ticket is now boiling, and the two sides of the Tongcha Mansion and Dali Temple have joined forces, and those who started it must also be aware of it, so there are many clues to follow up together.
After weighing it, Yu Yi asked Niu Junyi and Shen Jiayi to check whether there was any problem with the transportation of the parchment paper, and he took Xu Yangqiu and Zheng Bingzhou to the Ministry of Industry to see the rubbing. Xu Yangqiu was reluctant at first, but when he heard that he went to settle in the afternoon, he was more active than anyone else.
In fact, it is said that currency and silver bills should be under the jurisdiction of the Ministry of Households, and the Ministry of Industry is mainly responsible for Qingyang's civil engineering, water conservancy and ordnance, etc., but the miniature carving process requires too many tools, and Emperor An assigned a large amount of silver tickets to the Ministry of Industry.
"His Royal Highness." As soon as the three of them arrived at the door, a man in an official robe greeted him, and he stretched out his sleeves and said, "The waiter of the Ministry of Works, Pei Su." See King Lin. ”
The squire of the Ministry of Works? Yu Yi stared at him with his hands behind his back and did not speak. Zheng Bingzhou didn't understand these officialdoms, Xu Yangqiu reacted quickly, and said on the side: "Lord Shangshu is here?" ”
This is not related to the rules, but the fake silver ticket case involves a wide range of cases, and the rubbing content is only preserved by the Ministry of Industry.
Pei Su naturally knew the purpose of these people's coming, and hurriedly said: "His Royal Highness Linwang, Lord Shangshu is unwell, and he died five days ago. ”
"Pei Shilang, go in and talk." Yu Yi said coldly.
When Pei Su heard this, he hurriedly made a way: "Please come inside." ”
There is a meeting hall in the Ministry of Industry, and Yu Yi is not at all politely seated in the main seat. For others, Yu Yi will never be like Bai Jiangyi, let alone handling cases.
"Pei Shilang, please invite all the officials who know about rubbing." Yu Yi didn't have ink at all, and he didn't even bring tea, so he sent Pei Su to call someone.
Yu Yi and Xu Yangqiu glanced at each other, in fact, to be honest, there has been no progress in the fake silver ticket case at the moment, and the Ministry of Industry will naturally not gain anything, the purpose of coming is just to knock on the mountain and shock the tiger. As for how to shake, it depends on whether the tiger is afraid of this great king.
Within a single cup of tea, there were four people standing in the courtyard. In fact, the work of the rubbing craftsman is very simple, as long as the damaged seal is made and repaired, but because the seal is really confidential, several people are not allowed to go out of the gate of the Ministry of Labor, and clothing, food, housing and transportation are all inside.
The four of them have different appearances, tall, short, fat and thin, and the only similarity should be the calluses left by holding a carving knife in their hands for many years.
Judging people is nothing more than two extremes that work best. One is that the mouth is clever and the atmosphere is very relaxed, which can make the interrogated person relax his mind and then use logical loopholes to attack, such as Xu Yangqiu. The other is fierce and brutal, which directly collapses the psychological defense line of the interrogator, although Zheng Bingzhou is injured, but the coldness in his bones is not something that few people can bear.
This kind of inquiry, there is no need to make a move.
Zheng Bingzhou and Xu Yangqiu took the two of them away, and Yu Yi sat back in the reception hall to drink tea with peace of mind. This posture made Pei Su a little nervous, and Yu Yi said: "It's okay Pei Shilang, it's just a simple inquiry." ”
But is that really the case?
After about a stick of incense, both of them came out with the people they had taken away. The expressions of the four craftsmen were relaxed, and the two of them were very dignified, and even the hands of the miniature carving craftsmen were trembling slightly.
Both of them shook their heads at Yu Yi, indicating that they didn't ask anything of value.
Yu Yi squinted his eyes and bowed his head slightly, put down the teacup in his hand, and asked Pei Su: "Pei Shilang, these four craftsmen in the Ministry of Works?" ”
Pei Shilang got up and saluted back: "There is also an old craftsman who is their master. ”
"Why don't you bring it?" Xu Yangqiu interjected and asked.
Pei Su's face was embarrassed: "Ed... This old craftsman's name is Hong Fenghai, and he no longer participates in rubbing, and he has a strange temper, and the whole ministry can't do anything about him. ”
"Where is he?" Yu also asked.
Pei Su didn't stop him, and made a gesture of please: "His Royal Highness King Lin, please come with me." ”
Yu Yi stood up and glanced at Zheng Bingzhou before leaving, who understood and stood in place and did not follow, but focused on the four craftsmen in front of him.
In the garden of the Ministry of Industry, there is also a small courtyard. It's not big, there are some chickens and ducks in it, and the house is a thatched house, which is incompatible with the red-walled and black-tiled Ministry of Works.
The thatched hut door was closed, and the smell of wine came from inside.
Another old man who loves to drink.
Smelling this smell, Yu Yi thought of Ye Xingzhou again, and he didn't know how he was now.
Now is not the time to think about this, Yu Yi retracted his thoughts and pushed open the fence gate of the small courtyard.
There was a sound at the fence gate, and an old roar was heard from inside the house!
"Who let you into my yard!"
Yu Yi paused and frowned. And Pei Su behind him hurriedly smiled: "Ah Gong Hong, it's His Royal Highness King Lin, I want to ask you something." ”
The house continued: "Ask what's the matter, old man, I haven't been out of the yard for a long time, and I haven't even touched the miniature sculpture anymore, what is there to ask." ”
As soon as the words fell, Mo Yuan came out of his sheath, and a cold light flashed, and Yu Yi had already kicked open the door of the thatched house.
Inside the house, there was a sea full of white hair and white beard, and the window lattice was still colliding with the window edge.
Someone just went out!
"Control this old man!" Yu Yi yelled, and then rolled out of the window and chased out.
Naturally, the guards of the Ministry of Works did not dare to disobey Yu Yi's order, and immediately drew a knife and put it on Hong Fenghai's neck.
Xu Yangqiu slowly walked in front of the old man of the sixtieth year, and said expressionlessly: "Take it back to the Tongcha Mansion." ”
Hearing that there was movement here, Zheng Bingzhou also rushed over: "What's wrong?" ”
Xu Yangqiu raised his chin: "This old man, there is a person hidden in the house, and Yu Yi chased after him." ”
"Then he..."
"Ao, he said that he hadn't been out of the yard for a long time, but he knew that we were here for the miniature carving, and most of them couldn't get out of it, so we brought it back together." Xu Yangqiu opened the folding fan and fanned the air duct.
Yu Yi's side, when he rolled out of the window, he was already gone, and he chased out only when he saw the leaves that were still shaking without wind. Yu Yiqinggong was better, and in a few breaths, he saw the person who was fleeing.
Looking at the back, he is a tall man, and the robe he wears is also very valuable. He had a dagger in his hand, but he didn't mean to resist, he just wanted to run away.
As soon as Yu Yi stepped on the ground, a small pebble fell into his hand, and the internal force immediately gathered, flew out violently, and jumped straight on the man's waist.
Hitting is the most effective place to incapacitate.
Yu Yi still looked down on the man, as if he felt the sudden approaching internal force behind him, and the man lowered his body and jumped up suddenly. Although it was a little slower, the stone still hit his ankle, but Yu also controlled the strength in order to capture it alive, and the effect of hitting the ankle was still worse, and the man staggered two steps and continued to rush forward. Looking at this slippery loach-like body, most of them are also martial arts practitioners, but the murderous aura emitted from his body during his escape is very small.
He is a martial artist again, and he is not murderous......
Now just after the hour, the streets are full of people who are in a hurry to gather in the morning, Yu Yi has never seen the face of the man, he rushed into the downtown and turned a few sharp corners before blending into the crowd, and now he sank into the sea and could not be found.
Yu Yi took a deep breath to adjust his internal breath, looking at the bustling crowd and there was nothing he could do.
When he returned to the Tongcha Mansion, Xu Yangqiu and Zheng Bingzhou were already waiting at the door.
"Didn't catch it?" Xu Yangqiu asked.
Yu Yi shook his head, and Xu Yangqiu smiled playfully: "And when you Yu Zilin missed?" ”
Yu Yi glanced at him expressionlessly, and Xu Yangqiu shut up. asked Zheng Bingzhou again: "How is it?" ”
Zheng Bingzhou also shook his head: "Stubborn, don't say anything." I've already sent my own brothers to keep an eye on those craftsmen in the Ministry of Works. ”
