Under the corridor, Lin Yunyan did not move.

With his eyes lowered, the spoon in his hand didn't scrape the bottom of the bowl for a while, and the cheese that didn't have much left was just going from side to side, and he only managed to make up a quarter of a spoonful.

Lin Yunyan picked it up and ate it.

The eyes are raised, and they look forward naturally.

I can't see Xu Jian anymore.

There was a small corner that blocked the view to the yard next door.

Putting the bowl on the side, Lin Yunyan wiped it with a handkerchief first.

The place on the lips that had just been wiped by Xu Jian was no longer the touch left on the fingertips.

Speaking of which, Xu Jiangang didn't use much energy at that moment, it was very natural and casual.

If it is more serious, it must not be dignified and solemn enough, but between her and Xu Jian, it seems that there is no need to be so serious.

Thinking so, Lin Yunyan folded the two bowls and spoons together, got up and went into the kitchen.

Mama He was sitting in front of the stove, looking at the fire and preparing dinner.

Xuan Su stood in front of the cupboard and ate cheese, spoonful after spoonful.

Seeing Lin Yunyan come in, Mama got up, and Xuansu also put down the spoon.

Lin Yunyan handed the bowl and spoon to the He family's grandmother and said, "Grandpa Guo and I will go to the flower hall first."

Mama responded.

Hearing her say this, Xuan Su put the bowl on the table and prepared to serve the tea tray.

"I'll just bring it over," Lin Yunyan stopped him, "It's just two steps, you eat yours."

Xuan Su said, "It's a small thing."

Lin Yunyan sneered and laughed, "What's the matter."

Seeing that she couldn't screw her, Xuansu was as good as a stream.

Lin Yunyan took the tea tray, walked out of the kitchen, and walked through the yard to the next door.

The evening breeze was blowing on my body, it was already the warmth of early summer, and there was still a little glow in the sky in the distance.

It was an ordinary day in the capital.

But it also reminded her of a lot of old things.

Xuansu loves sweets very much, and even eats sweeter than Lin Yunyan.

Lin Yunyan also talked and laughed with Xu Jian, obviously expressionless and unprocrastinating, why is it so surprising in taste.

But this is such a Xuansu, and the sacrifice is so neat that people can't react.

Rao, they were already embattled at that time.

Rao, they all know that it is difficult to escape.

But when it really came to that moment, I was still caught off guard.

Xuan Su led the pursuers away for her and Xu Jian......

In the end, all she could do was buy a bunch of sugar gourds, eat them silently with Xu Jian, and then continue to embark on the road of no return.

Compared with those things in the past, today's "ordinary" is simply heaven and earth.

After going through so many tribulations, how could she still be so upset about Xu Jian's useless movements?

Sure enough, there are too many comfortable days.

The whole person is a little floating.

Lin Yunyan entered the flower hall, put down the tea tray, and prepared to make tea in an orderly manner.

Xu Jian sat and saw that there was no one behind her, so she asked, "Where is Xuansu?"

"I'll let him eat cheese," Lin Yunyan kept his hand, "just make a tea, don't need him to come."

Xu Jian raised his eyebrows: "He's still in the kitchen?"

"Yes," Lin Yunyan lit the small stove, set up the kettle, and smiled herself when she opened her mouth again, "Holding a big bowl, you think it's all like you, so you can't eat it at all?"

Xu Jian laughed heartily.

He doesn't care if Xuansu comes or not.

Xuansu and Shenchen are also busy on weekdays, and they used to keep an eye on them day and night, and it is not a matter to eat some favorite food in their free time.

He is not so particular, he must follow this and that.

It's just to make a tea, Lin Yunyan can brew it if she wants to, and if she doesn't want to, she will be the shopkeeper, and he will make it.

He just couldn't listen to the little princess's "nonsense".

What does it mean to follow

He's like that, so he can't eat it all?

How many bites can you take in a bowl of cheese?

It was clearly to give her a step down, and the little county lord didn't appreciate it at all.

That's not true.

The little county lord didn't see that it was a step at all, he just thought it was a flat river, and he really didn't even know where to get the love.

Thinking so, Xu Jian opened his mouth and handed over a word: "The tea leaves I took from Cining Palace earlier......

"Finished drinking?" Lin Yunyan didn't raise her head, just worried about preparing tea.

Xu Jian deliberately said, "I'm done drinking."

"I'll go to the Queen Mother to ask for some more?" Lin Yunyan asked.

"What's so embarrassing?" Xu Jian paused, and then changed his words, "Or do you want to take this opportunity to go to the mother's place and sing another scene where you are very satisfied with the marriage?"

Lin Yunyan paused for a moment to take the tea, raised her eyes and looked at Xu Jian, "What? You want to go with me?"

"No," Xu Jian said in a slighted tone, "You're too pretending to be too much to catch it."

Lin Yunyan: ......

Even if she knew that Xu Jian was so yin and yang, she couldn't help but want to glare at him a few times.

Xu Jian glared at her, and her gaze was impartial: "You really want to make a show, wait until Xiaoding, you have to go to the palace to thank you."

Lin Yunyan said, "Can you catch it at that time?"

The water is boiling.

Xu Jian motioned for Lin Yunyan to step back, and she lifted the kettle and poured it into the purple clay pot, and the fragrance of tea was instantly stimulated.

His fingers are very long, and he has practiced martial arts for a long time in the past, and his bones are distinct.

His palms are big, and the teapot looks a little delicate in his hands.

After dividing the tea, Xu Jian pushed one to Lin Yunyan: "Take it hard."

The tea soup is piping hot.

It was steaming hot, and it was between the two.

Lin Yunyan said "oh": "You are quite aggrieved?"

"It's okay," Xu Jian curled her lips, "It's just that this scene is a bit slow."

The days of Xiaoding have been delayed from the beginning of spring to June.

Although it is slow, it is better than rushing and catching up, after all, there were too many things a while ago.

All huddled together, although it is not so bad that it is not enough, but I dare not say that it will not be overstretched.

Lin Yunyan didn't react to the word "slow" all of a sudden.

Xu Jian took a sip of the teacup and opened the topic again: "Before, the Guyue merchant that Xuan Su saw in Chenmi Hutong, Han named Su Chang, who was engaged in the spice business every day, and not long ago opened a shop on West Street, and just started trading, and the business was so-so."

"Also surnamed Sue?" Lin Yunyan raised her eyebrows.

The chief envoy of the Guyue envoy, the Han name is Su Yi.

Most of the envoys of more than 100 people also have Chinese names.

"There are a total of thirty or forty people with the surname Su," Xu Jian read the documents and said, "I didn't say before whether they all flattered Su Yi and learned from him, or whether he had a close relationship with Su Yi, and recently checked, it may be the latter."

On that day, Xuan Su only saw that the merchant was familiar, but he didn't know the specific identity of the other party.

At that time, he mainly followed Li Shao, and he couldn't always stare at Gu Yueren.

It wasn't until the envoy of Guyue left Beijing that Xuansu determined Su Chang's identity from it.

Since he was a businessman, or a businessman related to that house, Xu Jian guessed that he would definitely return to the capital.

Doing business is a good starting point.

It can contact many people, and it is convenient to do many things.

Sure enough, not long ago, Xu Jian took advantage of the reason of supervising the case in Shuntian Mansion to blatantly check the information of Guyue's business.

After all, with that piece of gold paper as a guarantee, he investigated too deeply, and in Shan Shen's eyes, it was justified.

After such a check, Su Chang's traces were found.

Soon after Su Chang's envoy left Beijing, he returned to the capital, set up shops, and started trading.

"Gu Yue's visit, in addition to commerce, as long as it is to discuss how to deal with Xiliang," Xu Jian said, "Xiliang Iron Cavalry, it is easy to enter Yuguan, but

Harassment of other small countries outside the border is heavy.

Gu Yue's idea was to suppress Xiliang through us, and the envoys were also to bargain.

This time, though, they didn't take advantage of much."

Speaking of this, Xu Jian took another sip of tea.

No matter how annoying Liu Jing is, he has to praise that in this kind of confrontation between you and me, Liu Jing's advance and retreat are very appropriate.

gave Gu Yue a little sweetness, and let the court gain the upper hand.

Liu Jing grasped the degree according to the saint's intention.

"So, Su Yi can give an account to their master," Xu Jian said, "but Gu Yue will also feel that he didn't take advantage of it."

When Lin Yunyan heard this, she laughed: "Then Liu Jing lost his official position, Honglu Siqing has been replaced, if Gu Yue comes to discuss it again next year, he may have to take advantage of it."

From this point of view, the people behind the layout put Liu Xun in Chenmi Hutong, and there are also considerations at this level.

It's just that the other party didn't expect that the prince would be pitted together.

Xu Jian also smiled.

It is true that they knew that the other party had the idea of replacing Liu Jing, and they would not protect Liu Jing, but borrowed a knife to kill people and kill a few more.

"Chen Mi Hutong is gone, Su Chang is still in Beijing, follow this line more, and you can figure out if he is the King of Jin behind him." Xu Jiandao.

Speaking of which, Lin Yunyan also talked about her harvest in Guangde Temple.

"Jinzhong Changyuntang?" Xu Jian raised his eyebrows slightly.

Whether it is King Jin or not, there must be a lot of money in the other party's hand.

Although a prince has abundant assets, he will not be afraid of lack of money to the extent that he can cover the sky with one hand.

"Li Mi must have left more than two gold bricks," Xu Jian said, "I don't know how much I swallowed in the early years, and I added so many good halls......

I asked Jing Dafeng to check those good halls in Jiangnan, especially the five that he invested, he recorded some accounts, and the things are in my study, and the pair you wrote down later.

If you collect more and remember less, you won't be able to settle the account."

Lin Yunyan bent her eyes and smiled.

She guessed that since Jing Dafeng had fled to the capital in the past, it was impossible for Xu Jian not to check Shantang.

"Which study?" Lin Yunyan asked, "Here, or in the house?"

Xu Jian was just about to answer, but when she saw her smiling, her words changed: "So happy? Is there a prize for guessing correctly?"

Lin Yunyan glanced at him with disgust.

"I can ask the abbot to turn over the account book for you, the play is really good," Xu Jian got up and walked outside, "It's in the study next door, I'll take you to find it."

Lin Yunyan responded.

The two walked out of the flower hall one after the other.

It was darker than before, and the sunset on the horizon was almost invisible, and it wasn't long before the lights were lit.

Lin Yunyan took a few steps behind, and her gaze slid down from the sky and landed on Xu Jian's back.

Very high.

She rarely looked at Xu Jian like this.

In the past, when she walked behind Xu Jian, Xu Jian was sitting.

In the wheelchair, she pushed Gollum forward.

Lin Yunyan is used to pushing, and she is also used to listening to the sound of the wheel, she remembers that when she first woke up, she walked on the bluestone floor tiles, and she would feel strange without that sound.

Now that she thinks about it, she prefers it that way.

She needs to hold her head up, the shadow in front of her can cover her when it is obliquely elongated, and Xu Jian can walk forward smoothly by herself.

She'll get used to it, too.

Pushing open the door of the study, Xu Jian lit the oil lamp.

The documents were all on the shelf, he thought about it, took out two volumes from them and handed them to Lin Yunyan.

"Jing Dafeng copied it back," Xu Jian said, "The five good halls are among them."

Lin Yunyan sat down at the table and looked at it.

The oldest of these five good halls of Jing Dashan was built thirteen years ago, and the latest one was eight years ago, and they have been in operation for many years, until this year, and they are not bad on the surface.

Although Jing Dafeng did not increase funding after it was built,

But Jiangnan is already rich, and many wealthy businessmen are adding bricks and tiles every year.

The situation of each family is different, and each donation is also large and small.

But Lin Yunyan turned over from beginning to end, but did not find assistance from the "Guangde Temple".

She remembered the clear amount of years and months, but it didn't appear on it.

"Swallowed," Lin Yunyan said, "The local ones are not easy to swallow, and when people check and ask, something will go wrong, and the capital is far away, and Guangde Temple will not let people check."

Even if you do come, there are many entries in and out every year, and you can fool the past.

Is Guangde Temple not really paying for it, or is Jiangnan Shantang accepting it but saying that it was confiscated......

According to the situation in the previous life, it is estimated that it is the latter type.

The incense money, after walking like this, eventually disappeared.

The devotion of Guangde Temple is only a part, and more, it can be relied on in this way, from many temples, and it can also be transferred from the benevolent hall for wealthy merchants to fund far away.

Eventually, the money was collected and added up.

"The evidence is not enough," Xu Jian thought for a moment and said, "You just said Jinzhong Changyuntang, then you can start from the Shi family."

Lin Yunyan was slightly stunned, and soon remembered it again.

When they caught Wang in the sixth year, the young man they captured together was surnamed Shi.

Shi Jiao was the owner of the thirteen sets of land deeds in Laoshi Lane, and the two gold bricks were buried under his house.

"What about the Shi family?" Lin Yunyan asked, "Are you still in the capital?"

Wang was arrested in the sixth year, Shi Zhe also brought back to the yamen, he once said that the notes left by his grandfather asked him to go to Guangde Temple to find Daoheng, and he did so, and found Wang in the sixth year through Daoheng.

Shi Zhe stayed with Wang for a few days, but he didn't know anything else.

It wasn't his turn to cut off his head, and he didn't need to eat in prison.

After asking the Holy Will, Shan Shen released the people first, but he didn't let him out of the capital, put his eyes under his nose, and see when he could catch a fish.

"People should be here, I'll ask Master Shan tomorrow," Xu Jian said, "He'd better tell me something about Changyuntang."

Lin Yunyan closed the account book: "That golden paper, the pressure of the person behind it should be not small, if he knows that the yamen is eyeing Su Chang, and he still wants to check Shantang, with his temperament ......

Xu Jian chuckled, "Broken tail."

That man had always been like that.

If you are bitten tightly, you will definitely have a broken tail to survive.

took this little bit of broken tail to add to Xu Jiandang's head, and retreated with his whole body.

However, the tail is much broken, and if they are put together, they can make him and Lin Yunyan piece together.

"Look what kind of tail it is this time." Lin Yunyan said with a smile.
