Zhang lowered his eyes, looked at the book in his hand, and couldn't help but sigh.

"Who's the guy over there?"

Qin Lian suddenly exclaimed.

Zhang followed her words and looked up, only to see a strange man outside the alley on the side of the street turning around and walking into the alley.

Men's clothing is the most ordinary, except for their tall figures, there is nothing special to see.

Zhang Shi was puzzled, "Miss Qin, who is that person?"

"I don't know! Don't you know? I saw that man when I came out of the yamen, and he was standing there looking at you, and at first I thought I was wrong. ”

"Look at me?" Zhang frowned.

"Don't you know him?" Qin Lian was surprised, and glanced over there a few more times, and seeing that the man had already left, she muttered, "Could it be that I saw it wrong?" I saw that person staring at you all the time, and I thought it was someone. ”

"I guess I'm wrong."

Zhang put away Heli's paperwork, and his voice was a little gloomy, "I have been in the Wu family all these years, and I have had little contact with outsiders, so no one should know me." ”

"That was before! Now that you're at peace with them, there's no relationship with them again! Qin Lian said, "Zhang Niang, let's go back quickly, we must celebrate today's incident!" ”

“…… Good. ”

Zhang raised a smile with some difficulty and followed Qin Lian away.

After they left, the man hiding on the other side of the alley came out of the corner, staring at Zhang's back with deep eyes.

When the two of them were far away, he walked into the yamen and went directly to the wing room in the backyard.

When I entered the door, I saw several delicacies on the table, and Xiao Yun, who was wearing an official uniform, was eating a big meal, and commented while eating, "How is this dish made?" I've never eaten such a dish in the capital, and I should have come here a long time ago if I knew that there was such a special dish in Luoxi Town. ”

Cheng Hu smiled beside him, "Haha, Lord Xiao, you don't know, right?" These are the signature dishes of Su's shopkeeper's cyclamen, which are not found anywhere else. Of course, there was no such dish in Luoxi Town before. ”

"Shopkeeper Su only opened a shop in our town last month, and now it has become the most popular restaurant in town."

"Is that so?" Xiao Yun was a little surprised, looked at Chu Yan and asked, "Chu Yan, where did you find this lady, and you can actually find these dishes?" I've never tasted any of this, let alone heard of it. ”

Hearing someone praise Su Liuye like this, Chu Yan had a little more smile on his face, "These are all things that my lady came up with." ”

Hearing this answer, Xiao Yun's eyes lit up, and he became even more interested in Su Liuye.

His biggest hobby on weekdays is to taste food, and he has tasted all the famous dishes in the capital, and he has not eaten them elsewhere on official business.

It was the first time he had tasted such a unique dish as cyclamen.

"Three masters, you're here."

As he was talking, Cheng Hu saw the person at the door, hurriedly stepped forward, and said, "Master Xiao just has some matter, let's discuss it here." ”

"Hmm."

Jiang Yu chose a place to sit down, silent and did not speak, and the centipede-like scar on his face was very conspicuous.

It's just that the three people present have all seen it, and they don't care much about this matter, and several people quickly talk about the bandits.

Yu Xiangqin not only abducted and trafficked children and women, but also sold cigarettes in private, and colluded with many wealthy businessmen and officials, which is undoubtedly a capital crime.

The bandits under her command are also knowingly criminal, and none of them can escape, but some of the others are indeed innocent. They had long followed Jiang Yu out to run the boat, and they didn't know what Yu Xiangqin had done, and the government couldn't convict them at will.

Xiao Yun listened to their words, put down his chopsticks with a solemn expression, and after a moment of silence, he said, "Cheng Hu, you were originally a woodcutter in the nearby area, and you only entered the mountain to become a bandit because of the famine at the bottom of the mountain. After you entered the mountain, although you were a thief on the surface, you had been following Jiang Yu around the business, and later helped Chu Yan to exterminate the bandits. ”

"Thank you, Lord Xiao!"

Hearing this, Cheng Hu excitedly hugged his fists and thanked him.

His parents were gone when he was a child, and he has been living a life of relying on the mountains and eating the mountains, and it is difficult to pull himself up, if he is not desperate, he does not want to go into the mountains to become a bandit.

Fortunately, the first person he met after entering the mountain was Jiang Yu, who was no longer a thief at that time, and also took him to run a business outside.

By chance, he discovered that Yu Xiangqin was secretly selling cigarettes, which was a serious violation of national law, and if he was discovered, he would definitely be involved. He was thinking about leaving here at that time, and happened to meet Chu Yan and them.

He is a person who understands current affairs, so naturally he will not let go of this good opportunity to take refuge, not to mention, Jiang Yu has already had some plans to get rid of Yu Xiangqin.

Thinking of this, Cheng Hu glanced at the silent man beside him, and dared to ask Xiao Yun, "Lord Xiao, I don't know ...... three masters."

Xiao Yun frowned.

Although Jiang Yu has long been separated from the bandit organization, after all, he has also been a bandit for a while, but he has played a key role in the process of exterminating the bandits. If it weren't for Jiang Yu's help, they probably wouldn't have caught Yu Xiangqin so easily.

Xiao Yun thought about it, but Jiang Yu looked down at the copper coin in his hand, as if what was happening around him had nothing to do with him.

Seeing the copper coin in his hand, Cheng Hu wanted to speak and stopped, but realizing the atmosphere at the moment, he still wisely chose to be silent.

After a while, Xiao Yun finally spoke, "It's not easy for me to decide on this matter at the moment. The matter of the suppression of the bandits in Tieniu Mountain has been reported to the imperial court, and there will be a letter from the imperial court after that, and we will see how to deal with it when the time comes, before that...... Xiao Yun paused, "Jiang Yu, you are now in the prison of the Yamen." Although I know that what Yu Xiangqin did has nothing to do with you, but after all, you are the third leader of Tieniu Mountain, if I let you out, this matter will be known by the imperial court, and you and I will not be able to get rid of it. ”

"I understand."

Jiang Yu's tone was calm, and he had long thought that this was the result.

He put the copper coin in his hand close to his body and said to Chu Yan, "Mr. Chu, there is an incident I want to get rid of you. ”

"You say."

"During this time, I bother you to help me take care of Zhang Niang." His voice was hoarse as he said the name, "And ...... Don't tell her about me. ”

Chu Yan didn't ask much, nodded and said, "I will." ”

"I'm tired."

Jiang Yu thanked him and left with the yacha.

Seeing this, Cheng Hu was a little anxious, and begged for mercy, "Master Xingxiao, these things really have nothing to do with the three masters!" If it weren't for the decision of the three masters, my brothers and I would have starved to death, this-"

Xiao Yun said in a deep voice, "I naturally understand what you said, but Jiang Yu's identity is destined for me not to take it lightly." ”
