Chapter 16: The Past of Good Fortune

Zhu Jie's release was a sure thing, after all, Su Jue said in court that day that her complaint was just a misunderstanding, and she would not continue the lawsuit.

Naturally, this matter is inconclusive, and it is certainly not reasonable to lock up the bamboo solution for a long time.

As soon as Zhu Jiefu came out, he was invited by Jiang Caiyu to a teahouse, where someone was waiting for him.

The little guy who led the way informed Zhu Xie in advance that the person who came was Qintian Supervisor Zheng, whose name was Lu Ruyu.

After Zhu Xie entered the house, he saw the two people sitting and drinking tea, and a little smile appeared on his face, and he stepped forward to bow calmly: "Little monk Zhu Jie, I have seen Lord Lu and Master Jiang." ”

Jiang Caiyu saw the bamboo solution and enthusiastically introduced it to Lu Ruyu: "Master Lu, this is the bamboo solution." Previously, when the emperor came to Jiangnan, he held a lecture meeting, which was also the bamboo explanation. Later, in response to the call of the people in Jiangnan, Lord Luo and I tailored the Jiangnan Zen Sutra Conference for Zhujie, and the response was very good. It is precisely for this reason that I consulted with Lord Luo and jointly wrote to the emperor and recommended him. ”

After that, he stroked his beard, bowed slightly, and said in a tentative tone: "Lord Lu, what do you think of him?" ”

At this time, Zhu Xie was still standing in the middle of the room, quietly waiting for this Beijing official to give him a seat, his expression was full of respect. This gesture naturally gave Lu Ruyu enough face.

Unexpectedly, Lu Ruyu didn't raise his head, lowered his head and lifted the lid of the teacup, blew the hot tea to himself, drank the tea in small sips, and said without being salty or light: "Of course Master Zhujie has a good demeanor." It's just that I heard that there is a woman in Pingliu Mansion, who seems to have a lot to do with the master! ”

"Could it be that the master and that woman, what kind of song can't be done?"

This has some deep meaning.

Previously, Jiang Caiyu also specially informed the bamboo solution that officials from the capital would come to inspect the bamboo solution in the near future, but this may just be a formality, and the draft edict will arrive soon, and it may even be directly brought to the envoy.

Originally, it may have been just a formality, but Zhujie was a monk after all, and now he got into a lawsuit against a woman and encountered that prison again. These factors have really had a very bad impact, although the emperor who is far away in the capital does not know about these news.

But how can there be an impermeable wall in the world?

Zhu Jie's heart sank, and he was about to argue, he never thought that Jiang Caiyu would take the lead, he laughed, as if these were not things: "Eh, Lord Lu, this is actually a misunderstanding." ”

The woman had already clarified in court that things were not what was legendary. And you don't know Lord Luo's character, he has always been perceptive and selfless. Today, the bamboo solution came out, and it was Lord Luo who personally told me. I think that if Zhu Xie is a little suspicious, he must not be able to get out of Master Luo. ”

"These are enough to prove that Zhu Xie is innocent and there is no problem."

"Lord Lu has lived in the capital for a long time, and he is the supervisor of Qintian, he has always been like a god, and the incident has happened, even if it is the slightest bit, it must not be able to hide from your eyes, please also know it!"

These words sounded a little old-fashioned and greasy, but they unconsciously narrowed the relationship between the two and set the direction of this matter.

Zhu Xie said in his heart, Jiang Caiyu has indeed lived in officialdom for a long time, and this skill in dealing with people is unconvincing, and this is what he needs to learn. Thinking of this, he cautiously glanced at Lu Ruyu.

When Lu Ruyi heard this explanation, there was no special change on his face, he was still so businesslike, he pointed to the seat next to him, and said: "Sit down and talk, it's not an outsider!" ”

Although the tone is not enthusiastic, this action also shows a direction, and this matter can be solved.

Zhu Xie was relieved, thanked him, and sat down.

Lu Ruyu continued: "Lord Jiang and Lord Luo, this official naturally believes it. ”

However, this matter does have some bad effects, and presumably the emperor doesn't want to hear those gossip. But these, it's better to be controllable, I'm afraid, what moths will appear again, and when the time comes...... Hehe! ”

"And don't say that Jiang and Luo are not easy to explain, even the officials can't get out of the relationship, after all, this time I came to Jiangnan, but the emperor personally arranged it."

Where does Jiang Caiyu not understand this meaning? Immediately nodded again and again, and kept saying: "Controllable, controllable, where is it uncontrollable?" It must be controllable, right, Takejie? ”

Where has Zhu Xie seen these officialdom words, and he only nodded mechanically.

Seeing this, Jiang Caiyu hurriedly added: "Please rest assured, Master Lu, I will not embarrass you, and I will definitely handle this matter well." ”

"In addition, I also ask Lord Lu to stay in this Jiangnan for a few more days, and let the lower officials do their best to be the landlord!"

"I ordered dinner upstairs, all of which are Jiangnan food, although it is coarse, but the taste is still good."

As he spoke, he gave Zhu Xie a try.

"Zhu Jie, why don't you wait for Lord Lu to eat?"

Zhu Xie hurriedly stepped forward and made a gesture of invitation respectfully. Lu Ruyu looked at Zhu Jie, still indifferent, straightened his clothes, and walked out. Zhu Xie followed and served, and several people came upstairs.

This night, Lu Ruyu's attitude towards Zhu Xie was still if he was leaving, and he couldn't see what it meant, but he had a good conversation with Jiang Caiyu.

It was late at night, and the little maid in Jiang Caiyu's mansion helped the drunk Lu Ruyu to the guest room.

Jiang Caiyu, who already had a red glow on his face, pulled Zhu Xie over, sat back in his original position, and whispered a few words in his ear, Zhu Xie nodded again and again, and a trace of fierceness appeared on his face from time to time.

At this moment, a person who looked like an official came over, came to Jiang Caiyu's side, lowered his head and said respectfully: "Lord Jiang, Princess Jicai has been assassinated, please come over." ”

Jiang Caiyu's face changed, but he didn't get up, he slowly sorted out his hair and clothes, got up slowly, and slowly paced outside. Look at this attitude, as if this matter has little to do with him.

When he was about to walk out of the door, he suddenly stood up again, turned around, and said to Zhu from afar: "Do what I just said, do it well, do it well!" ”

Zhu Xie handed over a very grateful look and nodded.

Of course, these are just the first words.

When Li Yunshui returned to the post house, he saw that Zhujie's porter quietly opened an opening, and a trace of wine came from the crack in the door.

Thinking about it, Takejie has already returned, and it seems that he has drunk a lot of wine.

This made Li Yunshui a little sad, after all, the senior brother is a high monk, how can he break his vows and drink, or drink for the second time, if it continues like this, how can it be good? But then I think about it, this series of things is really melancholy!

So, he gently closed the door.

When he returned to his room, he saw Xu Ruoyun behind him coming in, he looked left and right, and cautiously closed the door.

Li Yunshui felt strange, but he heard Xu Ruoyun say cautiously: "Brother Yunshui, there is a person I ignored before, after thinking about it, I think it is still very necessary to tell you about it." ”

"Oh?" Li Yunshui poured Xu Ruoyun a cup of tea and a cup for himself, and the two sat down together and looked at Xu Ruoyun teasingly: "Who?" Tell me about it, big thinker! ”

Xu Ruoyun was speechless for a while, but he also spoke-

"Ji Cai, the current emperor's sister, Jiang Caiyu's wife."

"Yes, indeed." Li Yunshui affirmed, and added: "I see that she is with Su Jue tonight, and she is in danger at the same time, so I feel suspicious in my heart, could it be that they know each other?" And...... She and Su Jue obviously shouldn't have anything to do with each other. ”

"I also think it's strange, but I don't know why, so I think I might be able to provide you with a clue about Ji Cai."

Li Yunshui picked up the tea, took a sip, and said with a smile: "I listen to it and I would like to hear it in detail." ”

Xu Ruoyun didn't serve tea, looked at Li Yunshui seriously, and said seriously-

"You really don't want to be so careless. Na Ji Cai is the younger sister of the current emperor, and the relationship between the two has always been very good. ”

This is because the two were not only born to one mother, but more importantly, their biological mother died early, and the two were not favored in the harem, and they depended on each other for their lives, and their relationship was extremely deep. In other words, this person, you'd better not offend. ”

"At the beginning, when the emperor was still King Zhen, he traveled to Jiangnan, and he brought Princess Jicai with him at that time."

At that time, Jiang Caiyu was still the owner of a rice village, and his name was unknown, far from being as beautiful as it is today. However, it is really in the eyes of a lover, and Ji Cai just took a fancy to Jiang Caiyu, a small businessman, who was extremely attentive every day, and his eyes were full of Jiang Caiyu. ”

At that time, Jiang Caiyu already had two confidants. One of them, named Su Li, is the baby given by his parents, this person is as his name suggests, extremely gentle, although Jiang Caiyu is not very concerned, but after all, he is the wife who wants Ming Media to marry; One is a woman Jiang Caiyu later acquainted, named Li Pujia, this woman has a smart mind, unusual talents, and is extremely individual, once used to be a counter called rice, is one of the few female shopkeepers in Jiangnan Province. ”

Although the two have very different personalities, they all have one thing in common, that is, they are dead set on Jiang Caiyu. It is said that at the beginning, Jiang Caiyu had intimate relations with the big people, and often took the two girls to walk between the high-ranking families, and they were used to seeing the bright lights and wine, and experienced many temptations that were difficult to refuse, but they loved Jiang Caiyu's heart and never changed, even if he was so ordinary and ordinary at that time. ”

"Once, even the emperor was very emotional, saying that Jiang Caiyu was not good-looking, and he didn't have a deep background, he was just a small seller, and he was favored by two stunning beauties, which is really blinding!"

"Of course, that's an afterthought."

Xu Ruoyun took a sip of water, and said slowly-

"On the other hand, Jicai, you have seen it just now, not to mention that the color is superior, it is difficult to achieve it if it is medium, and this person is used to being bullied in the palace, as soon as she arrives in Jiangnan, she is respected and courteous by the Quartet, where has she been so valued? Therefore, the mentality is a little unbalanced, and gradually becomes a little arrogant and proud, and does not take ordinary people in their eyes, and no one around them at that time has a good impression of Jicai. ”

"What happened later, in fact, everyone in Jiangnan knows everything. Jiang Caiyu gave Su Li to ...... Well, it was given to the big people of the time, that is, ...... Everyone praised King Luo. ”

"This is not surprising, although Su Li has a deep affection for Jiang Caiyu, I have always felt that Jiang Caiyu has some unscrupulous means for the sake of the end. If nothing else, let's just say that when I gave Su Li to King Luo, I was a little disdainful and disdainful. Of course, for Jiang Caiyu, of course, there are more benefits, on the one hand, he can escape the life of his parents and the words of the matchmaker, and on the other hand, he can make his career go to the next level. ”

"But what about Jiang Caiyu's treatment of Li Pujia? I really like it, and I can't wait to be with her every day. What is strange is that Jiang Caiyu later became close to Li Pujia as she wished, but the relationship after marriage was not good at all, so that Li Pujia finally ...... Hanged ......"

The reason for this has caused a lot of speculation, and if there is a lot of discussion, it is inevitable that there will be a shadow of auspiciousness. You must know that back then, she was jealous and hated Li Pujia, and even disregarded the royal face, on the street, in front of everyone's eyes, the market and Li Pujia openly quarreled loudly, and her words were vulgar...... Many people in Jiangnan know about this, so there are many people who suspect that she is making bad things out of it. ”

And Jiang Caiyu actually doesn't like Ji Cai, even with the influence of King Zhen and King Luo, his attitude towards Ji Cai is often just a courtesy response, and he doesn't care much. Even...... It is rumored that Ji Cai found an excuse to get Jiang Caiyu drunk and lured him to ...... Well...... That Jiang Caiyu did not ...... All in all, Jiang Caiyu's feelings for Ji Cai, it is not an exaggeration to say the word "disgust". ”

"Later, Ji Cai got married to Jiang Caiyu as he wished, and in less than a month after Li Pujia's death, of course, there are irresistible factors in the emperor's order, but I have to say that Ji Cai, this woman, is really a good means."

"So, I think it's important to remind you to be careful with this person. After all, she and Su Jue are together tonight, and the details of this are inevitably thought-provoking. ”

Li Yunshui listened carefully, without saying a word, and was also in deep thought. Seeing this, Xu Ruoyun knew that Li Yunshui had listened to it, so he quietly walked out and closed the door.

This night is destined to be extraordinary, and the fate of many people is revealed in this way, and there will inevitably be a turmoil.

Sure enough, the next day's Jiangnan Mansion looked as if nothing had changed, but in fact, the gears of fate of some people had quietly turned.

When it was bright the next day, Li Yunshui went to the inn last night, he wanted to ask Su Jue about his future plans again, but at this time, the building was empty, and Su Jue disappeared as if out of thin air, leaving no trace.

And that inn, from the boss to the runner, has already changed its face, no matter what Li Yunshui asked, he kept his mouth shut, and did not get a word of useful information.

Li Yunshui's secret path is not good, Su Jue must have some accidents, but this big Jiangnan, there is such a person missing, who will find out?

He only expected that Su Yu would come quickly.

However, there was no room for him to wait for anything, Wei Nianda, who also met with Li Yunshui last night, was attacked and killed on the street, and the scene was extremely bloody, especially the hands of the old eunuch, with four fingers bent, and the bloody index finger connected with three bright small characters crookedly-

"Li Yunshui"
