Chapter 196: This play has just begun
Zheng Bingzhou bowed: "Just sent it, there was a change?" ”
Yu Yi didn't answer his words, turned around and ran down the steps, turned over his horse, and headed towards the prison of the Criminal Department.
"Hurry up!"
The non-commissioned officers of the Criminal Department walked behind a few people, and the thugs who were found by Cao Ke had already been released, and now only Cao Ke and Hong Fenghai were here. Huo Yuanwu is an official of the imperial court, so he is naturally detained in the prison. As for Duan Zimao, as the mastermind, he is naturally in the Tongcha Mansion.
Cao Ke didn't feel unconvinced in his heart, no matter how he said that he made a mistake, fortunately, he didn't hurt those who followed him to walk the rivers and lakes, this ending was excellent, but his desire to walk the rivers and lakes to see the world was about to be disappointed. Looking at Hong Fenghai again, there were 10,000 disbeliefs on his face, as if he had wronged him, in his opinion, he had been in the Ministry of Industry for so many years, and he had no credit and hard work, and now it was ridiculous to lock him up because of the leakage of rubbing. Therefore, in life, you still need to read more books, at least to know what to do and why not to do.
The soldiers of the prison of the Criminal Department opened the two prison doors and said with a bad face: "Go in." ”
Hong Fenghai snorted disdainfully, stepped into the cell with shackles, and didn't forget to tease a few words at this time: "You Qingyang officials, you can't see the world clearly, you can't tell the good from the bad, I'm afraid you can't be saved." ”
The old man doesn't know a few big characters, and when it comes to reasoning, it's really a set. The non-commissioned officer of the Criminal Department rolled his eyes and ignored it, closed the cell door and walked straight away. Hong Fenghai found a comfortable place to lean on, and there was a small window on the other side, and the sun could still shine in. He muttered, "Who said Lao Tzu can't see the sun." ”
The next-door neighbor is also squinting at the sun through the small window, and there used to be only one side of the world, but now there is really only one side of the world. He laughed to himself, shook his head, and didn't say anything more.
"What? Still emotional? ”
Cao Ke was stunned when he heard this, he turned around and saw Linwang Yu Yi standing quietly outside the cell, he was wearing an official robe, but he looked like a powerful minister. Hong Fenghai also heard it, he crawled to the old door with a rolling belt, grabbed the two prison door woods and began to flatter: "His Royal Highness Linwang, do you still need the old man in the palace?" Don't look at me old, my body is hard. ”
"Why are you here?" Compared with the noisy Hong Fenghai, Cao Ke seemed much quieter, he stepped on the hay and dragged the shackles to meet him, and asked with a wry smile.
Yu Yi took his hand and said, "Come and talk to you about business." ”
"Talking about business?" Cao Ke asked puzzled.
Yu Yizhen bowed: "The implementation of the new coin, as a miniature carving craftsman, you will enter the department, and within five years, you will teach five apprentices like you, and this king will set you free." ”
Cao Ke took two steps back in disbelief, his long hair blocking his face, and Yu couldn't see his expression clearly. Before Cao Ke could speak, Hong Fenghai on the side started again: "I can!" His Royal Highness, this kid is my apprentice, and I must be better than him. ”
Cao Ke shuddered, and seemed a little unable to refute it.
Yu Yi turned around and slowly walked to Hong Fenghai's cell: "Hong Fenghai, you have added a new crime to your previous sin, do you think it is still possible?" The wine... Have you drunk? If you don't drink it, you really don't have a chance. Yu Yi ignored him, returned to Cao Ke, and said, "Give you twelve hours to think about it, and call the jailer at any time after thinking about it." ”
Yu Yi, who was wearing the five-clawed python robe, was about to leave, but Cao Ke stopped him: "It won't take twelve hours, I promise you." ”
Yu Yi lifted his chin, and the jailer stepped forward to open the cell door and untie Cao Ke's shackles. Hong Fenghai consciously closed his mouth, no matter what, Cao Ke went out to have his own wine. Yu Yi looked at him for a while, Cao Ke is a person with clear eyebrows and beautiful eyes, but now this shape is really a little unacceptable, Yu Yi took out a money bag from his arms and threw it to him: "Change into a neat outfit, come back to the palace and wait for me." ”
Cao Ke took the money bag and smiled speechlessly: "You are not afraid that I will run away." ”
Yu Yichang breathed a sigh of relief: "Don't be afraid, because only by listening to my arrangement, can you really be free." And, even if you run away, the Inkscale Guard will capture you back. ”
After that, Yu Yi left first. Cao Ke looked at the direction he left with his money bag and was silent for a long time, he went to Hong Fenghai's cell, and at this time his master had already gone back and sat honestly, with his back to him and his head bowed, not knowing what he was thinking. Across the cell, facing the old craftsman's back, Cao Ke knelt down and kowtowed heavily. Hearing this voice, Hong Fenghai's rickety back was shocked, but he didn't speak.
"Master, the apprentice will not forget you."

Nanyang Annex.
Although this annex is not as good as the palace of the king, it is also beyond the reach of ordinary people. There were no guards, no maids and no servants in such a large courtyard, and the inconspicuous courtyard door was always closed, and there seemed to be no one else except for the regular cleaning people on weekdays, let alone human habitation. At first, the people around him also used it as a topic of conversation after tea and dinner, and over time they went with him, like most of the rich businessmen who bought this house, and it had nothing to do with them if they couldn't live or not.
It's just that what they don't know is that this house is the property of the current prime minister.
After taking a sip of hot tea, Liu Wenzhong's tightly knit brows were slightly stretched. Yan Jingshan, who was sitting opposite him, opened his mouth first after pouring tea for him: "Xiangye, what's the dissatisfaction?" ”
Hearing this, Liu Wenzhong poured all the tea in the cup, and then turned the tea bowl upside down on the table.
Yan Jingshan's eyes moved slightly, and it was funny to see Yan Yongsi, who was holding a sword on the side but didn't make any moves, this Xiangye was powerful in the court in the early years, and at the peak of his heyday, he was even in charge of the six ministries and the forbidden army in the palace alone, and forced the right minister to return to his hometown. What Liu Wenzhong didn't even realize was that Yan Yongsi beside him had become a representative of his current emotions over the years, just like at this moment, Liu Wenzhong was bored, but Yan Yongsi beside him did not make the slightest move, and Xiangye's emotions are self-evident.
Despite this, Yan Jingshan still explained: "Xiangye is nothing more than dissatisfied with abandoning the case. But Xiangye has ever thought that investigating and solving the case is a matter of the Dali Temple of the Unified Investigation Mansion, and my interference is nothing more than a dog taking a mouse, not to mention the truth, even if I find out the case, will Your Majesty trust Yu Zaixia? It's nothing more than a stigma of trespassing in his position. On the contrary, it is now the effect of doing well, both the trust and the regulatory power of the new currency. After Xiangye, do you want to continue to talk about it next? ”
Liu Wenzhong, the famous left minister, finally eased when he heard this, and he knew what Yan Jingshan said. Originally, it was a temptation to let him investigate the case, but if he really investigated, he would be suspected by Liu Wenzhong. I have to say that Yan Jingshan handled it very well, he was right, he helped Linwang Yu in the Qinzheng Palace to pass the implementation of the new currency, and also successfully obtained the supervision of the new currency.
Yan Jingshan's face was as usual, but his heart was clear. With the identity of Song Jin, he is Mission Impossible. This kind of detailed work is said to be two-faced people or even three-faced and four-faced people, to put it bluntly, it is just to see people and talk about people, and to see ghosts and talk nonsense.
Liu Wenzhong laughed: "The fake silver ticket case involves many people, it is so complicated, he can solve the case in three days, it is really strange." ”
In these words, he secretly poked and poked to wonder if Yan Jingshan had revealed the news, Yan Jingshan's face was as usual, and he smiled indifferently: "Sometimes it depends on luck to solve cases." ”
"Okay, what's your next step?" Liu Wenzhong changed the topic, he actually knew that a household Shangshu dog would take a mouse to check for fake silver tickets, and even if the case was solved, he Yan Jingshan would not be able to reap the benefits. Liu Wenzhong's original purpose was to let him gain the trust of An Di, and now the implementation of the new currency is trust.
Yan Jingshan stood up and went to Liu Wenzhong's side, looking at the wide lake: "It should be you, Xiangye, what are you going to do." Yan Jingshan paused and continued: "The holy decree of the academy is also about to be issued, and it will be handed over to the unified investigation office. ”
"This play has just begun."
…………
For the first time in so many years, Yu Yi felt that his huge Linwang Mansion had some fireworks in the world. Dismounted and stepped into the gate of the palace, the sound of the little girl playing came out, and when I walked inside, I saw Bai Jiangyi and A Ruan drying clothes in the side courtyard.
Ah Ruan saw that his uncle immediately got serious, and hung up honestly with the young lady's clothes, Bai Jiangyi was different, and threw himself into Yu Yi's arms: "General Yu, today is a safe residence and dividends, can I invite you to dinner in the evening?" ”
Yu Yiwan smiled: "Lady, are your dividends enough for you to buy rouge gouache?" Don't invite me to dinner when you arrive, and go and deduct Ah Ruan's wages. ”
Ah Ruan hurriedly nodded again and again, and silently vented his dissatisfaction behind Bai Jiangyi.
Bai Jiangyi has his own small treasury, which was earned by the orchestra and drawing architectural drawings for people in the past, but later Ding'anju opened and smashed all the small vaults into it, and then he secretly ran away to find Yu Yi, and all the entanglements on his body were snatched away by the wolf and lion house, so the original little rich woman's pocket began to tighten. Ah Ruan, this little girl, uses little money on weekdays and saves a lot of money, so Bai Jiangyi is cheeky and grinds her. Ah Ruan also knew that her young lady was good to her, and she was generous, but who knew that the young lady returned her a bunch of gold and silver jewelry, and Ah Ruan was reluctant to look good, so she went back and forth like this, and the two of them were so poor that they jingled.
Bai Jiangyi was annoyed that his maid had rebelled, and told Yu Yi about his shameful things, and before General Yu asked where the money was spent, Bai Jiangyi simply confessed to himself: "Actually, I bought you a gift with money." ”
"Gifts?" Yu Yi rubbed her head, and the embroidery of the five-clawed python robe also rubbed her face.
Bai Jiangyi was tickled and nodded: "Yes, the gift, I can't give it to you yet." ”
Yu Yi was slightly stunned and asked, "When can I give it?" ”
The petite girl smiled maliciously, "Guess." ”
"His Royal Highness."
An unfamiliar voice sounded, Yu Yi's hand was still on Bai Jiangyi's head, Bai Jiangyi had already taken a few steps back, put his hands on his waist and abdomen in a regular manner, and with a shallow smile, he pretended to be a lady.
She looked at it fixedly, her face was familiar, and after thinking about it, she remembered that it was one of the counterfeit coins brought back by Lingzhou.
Cao Ke has changed into clean clothes, it is a gray robe, and it doesn't look expensive. He stepped forward to return Yu Yi's money bag, and Yu Yi checked it, and it seemed that it was not missing. Cao Ke scratched his head and said embarrassedly: "I still have some savings, so I bought it with my own money, but the clothes in this capital are a little expensive, and I almost didn't want to, so I took some broken silver, and I will pay you back when I get paid." ”
Yu Yi didn't refuse, responded with a "good", and then introduced: "This is my lady, Bai Jiangyi." ”
Cao Ke hurriedly stretched his sleeves and saluted: "See the princess." ”
Bai Jiangyi smiled lightly: "Brother Cao." ”
Cao Ke seemed to be surprised by the calm of the princess in front of her, who was still obediently waiting for the trial in the prison car yesterday, and was able to stand in front of her so cleanly today, she didn't seem to be too surprised by such a change. Bai Jiangyi was born too beautiful, with cream-like skin and an excellent figure, Cao Ke is also an unsympathetic man, he was afraid that Yu Yi would misunderstand that he coveted the princess, so he was stunned for a few blinks before he panicked and said, "I'm sorry..."
Yu Yi shook his head lightly: "It's okay, I'll rent you a small courtyard, it's in Nanshi, very close to the household department." ”
In fact, it is an unexpected joy for Cao Ke to have such an ending now, where do he dare to hope to have his own residence, he originally thought that he would find a firewood house to live in at will in the five years of the household department, and after five years, he can save enough money to travel the rivers and lakes of this tens of millions of people. He doesn't have much demand for his own life, but this time and again, His Royal Highness Linwang is so attentive to himself, which makes Cao Ke a little overwhelmed.
Yu Yi also felt the confusion on his body, so he opened his mouth to relieve it: "I want to go out with the princess in the afternoon, so I won't accompany you, I'll let Lin Bo send you there." ”
