"It is said that this kind of grape wine from the Western Regions is only available in the palace in Jinling City, and I can't imagine that Lu Yuanwai is not far behind in this secluded orchid. The burly man, one of the false tax collectors, held the wine bottle and looked at the ruby red wine inside, and praised it.

"Brother Zuo is really overrated, this grape wine was originally given by His Majesty, otherwise where would Lu dare to hide it privately?" Lu Wei also picked up the wine bottle in his hand: "Come on, let's drink this cup full." ”

"The three of us brothers have been in Jinling City for a few days, I don't know when your envoy will be willing to meet with my eldest brother?" The burly man craned his neck and drank it all, staring at Lu Wei with a smile.

"Hey, hey, hey, why bother with Brother Zuo, Lu has already told the envoy. Lu Wei pretended to fill the burly man with wine again: "He said that he would meet with Brother Ling at the right time." ”

"Hmph! You envoy is such a big shelf. The burly man snorted coldly first, but then grinned at his big mouth: "However, I'm just here to pass the word, and I can't care about it so much, right?"

"It's still Brother Zuo who can see through. Lu Wei laughed, but his eyes were full of jealousy: "Bi'er, tears, I haven't come to serve Brother Zuo to drink." ”

"Uncle Zuo, why don't you ignore us?" Bi'er and Tear sat on the left and right sides of the burly man like a gust of wind, pouring and feeding him wine.

"Hahaha, good!" the burly man touched Bi'er's smooth oval face as he enjoyed the wine brought to his lips with tears.

"Knock knock!" There was a knock on the door: "Boss, the old slave has something important to see!"

"Come in. When Mama Wu entered the orchid room and saw the burly man, she was stunned for a moment, and then swallowed what she wanted to say back into her stomach.

"Brother Zuo is not an outsider, if you have anything to say, just say it. Lu Wei seemed to see Wu's mother's concerns and spoke.

"The owner, there are three guards from the Jingwei Mansion outside, and they want to see the owner by name, it seems that they are not good. Wu's mother looked worried.

"Hmm, I heard that His Majesty ordered that all the Su family's properties except for the Infernal Music Workshop and the Shanshui Inn be seized, what else are the guards of the Jingwei Mansion doing here?"

"Brother Zuo waits, Lu goes out to have a look. Lu Wei stood up and instructed the two stunning maids, "You two must serve the distinguished guests." ”

On weekdays, the Infernal Music Workshop, which is full of guests, is surprisingly deserted today, with only a few ordinary dancers dancing on the red carpet of the stage, a large number of seats under the stage are vacant, and only one-third of the guests in the private room upstairs are completely lost.

"What kind of wind blew Lord Wu here, it really made the music room shine!" Lu Wei smiled all over his face, and his fat body swayed very funny.

"Silent Wind has been thinking about this music shop for a long time, and this is not just coming out of the Tingwei Mansion. "This leading guard is none other than Wu Shifeng of the Xuanwu Academy.

"I heard that Lord Wu was wronged a few days ago, and now that he has been wronged, he should naturally celebrate. Lu Wei instructed Mother Wu: "You go to Mingfeng Pavilion to prepare a table of good wine and food, and I will wash the dust for the adults." ”

"Today, there is business to do when the silent wind comes, so there is no need to wash the dust. Wu Lianfeng's waist is much straighter in front of these businessmen: "Who is Miss Yanran, Benwei wants to take him to the Tingwei Mansion for questioning." ”

"Miss Yanran is one of the pillars of my Infernal Music Workshop, I don't know what happened to bother Master Wu?" Lu Wei heard that Wu Lianfeng was going to take Yan Ran away, and Fang Cai's smile disappeared from his fleshy face.

"Silent Wind is also a businessman's business. This Wu Lianfeng has been a guard for many years, and his skills in observing words and expressions are very good, and when he saw Lu Wei's face, he immediately changed his tone: "This Li Rat should know who committed something, he is not ordinary to Miss Yanran; not only rewarded one hundred and fifty taels, but also deposited one thousand taels of silver in the account of Miss Yanran of Sanshun Qian Village." ”

"Hmm, does Lu know about the reward?" Lu Wei saw that Wu Lianfeng still gave him face, and his face softened: "But the matter of depositing silver。。。。。。 ”

"Do you still need Miss Yanran to explain the matter of depositing silver?" Wu Lianfeng didn't wait for Lu Wei to finish speaking, and then saw the stitches: "After all, the matter of this fake tax collector has been in an uproar in the city recently, and the household department also has to verify whether this silver is dirty silver, isn't it?"

What Lord Wu said was that if Lu insisted on not complying, he would seem to be aggrieved. Lu Wei laughed weirdly: "Mother Wu, go and invite Miss Yanran." ”

After a while, Yan Ran slowly descended from the attic, she changed her normal and wore a smart pure white silk shirt, a green silk hair did not wear any headdress, only a white ribbon tied up a small bundle of hair at the back of her head, and two strands of hair on both sides were braided into a twisted shape, cold and lovely.

"I don't know what happened to Yan Ran outside?" Yan Ran saluted Lu Wei, and then looked at Wu Xiaofeng in a guard uniform, and had a faint bad premonition in her heart.

"This is Lord Wu from the Jingwei Mansion, and he is here to pick up the girl and go to the Tingwei Mansion to learn about some things. Lu Wei was also very careful when talking to Yanran.

"Yan Ran is just a happy girl, what do you need to ask for from the Labor Governor's Mansion?"

Li Rat deposited 1,000 taels of silver into the girl's account in Sanshun Qianzhuang, and hoped that the girl and Benwei would go to the Tingwei Mansion together to make it clear. Wu Xiaofeng said with a smile.

"I don't know this Li Rat, and I don't know anything about silver. Yan Ran didn't look at Wu Shifeng: "I don't want to accompany you." ”

"So Miss Yanran wants to disobey?" Wu Lianfeng couldn't help but get angry when he saw that Yanran was so tough, and he made a move backwards with his right hand, and the two guards immediately surrounded him.

"Stop!" Lu Wei on the side cleared his throat and whispered in Wu Shifeng's ear: "Lord Wu, don't be angry, let Lu persuade her." ”

"Well, for the sake of the outsider's face, the silent wind is waiting for a moment. Wu Shanfeng motioned to the two guards with his eyes and told them to retreat.

"Miss Yanran, this is also Tingwei's routine questioning, if you insist on not going, won't you seem to be cowardly in your heart, and you just happen to be convicted?" Lu Wei said softly to Yanran.

Yanran looked at Lu Wei, who couldn't wait to push her out of the door, and then looked at Wu Xiaofeng with a fierce look on the side, and sighed faintly in her heart: "Okay, let's go with Lord Wu." ”

"My lord, Miss Yanran agreed. Lu Wei was relieved when he saw Yanran, and his heart was overjoyed: "Mother Wu, prepare a carriage to send Miss Yanran." ”

"Yes! Mother Wu stretched out her hand towards Wu Shifeng again: "Lord Wu, please wait at the door." ”

Liu Ningshi wandered aimlessly, her mind was full of the scene of Tong Bo pushing himself out at the moment when the boulder fell in the secret room, and she unconsciously came to the door of a shop.

"Li Laoshi's wonton shop?" Liu Ningshi looked up at the signboard of the store, smelling the fragrance of the wontons inside, and couldn't help but remember the last time she and Tong Bo came here to eat wontons, and couldn't help but step in.

"Girl, please sit inside. At this time, the wonton shop was deserted, and there were only three or two customers left, completely losing the popularity of the previous period.

"Xiao Er, I remember that the business was good last time I came to you, why is it so depressed now?" Liu Ningshi still chose a ventilated position by the window and sat down.

"The girl doesn't know, since the last time the shop was cheated of a lot of money by a fake tax collector, this business has also plummeted. Xiao Er waved the rag in his hand and wiped the table for Liu Ningshi: "Look at our shopkeeper, he has been hanging his head and black face all day these days. ”

"Fake tax collector? It turns out that this wonton shop has also been deceived. Liu Ningshi asked curiously: "It's not the first time that you shopkeepers have paid taxes, can't you tell the truth from the fake?"

"Those tax differences are extremely vicious, where do we, the little people, dare to doubt more. Xiao Er mentioned that the fake tax collectors were a little indignant: "On that day, our shopkeeper heard that their accent was local, so we believed it." ”

"Accent?" Liu Ningshi's heart moved: "The black-clothed people who competed with me at that time were obviously not local accents, aren't they fake tax collectors?

"Girl, what do you want to order?" Xiao Er saw that Liu Ningshi was suddenly distracted, and asked tentatively.

"A three-fresh wonton. Liu Ningshi came back to her senses when she was called by Xiao Er: "Little Second Brother, didn't you see anything wrong with their errand clothes at that time?"

"There's nothing wrong with it, it's the same as a real tax collector's errand. After Xiao Er finished speaking, he shook the rag hanging on his shoulder: "A bowl of three fresh wontons." ”

"The fake tax collector is a local, and the bad clothes are all real, and the burly man in the household department should have just returned the real tax card that night. Liu Ningshi thought in her mind: "It seems that you should check the shop where the clothes are made." ”

"Girl, your wontons are here. Just as Liu Ningshi was thinking, Xiao Er had already come to her with a fragrant wonton.

"Little second brother, do you remember what those three fake tax officials looked like at the beginning?" Liu Ningshi's eyes flashed with excitement.

"Hmm! Let me think about it. Xiao Er scratched the back of his head: "The fake tax difference at the head is thin and tall, with a pale complexion, oh yes! There is a vermilion birthmark on the back of his right hand." ”

Groups of white tiger guards walked back and forth in the huge courtyard of Su Mansion, although they were wearing the guard uniforms of the imperial court, but at this time they were like red-eyed robbers, some holding precious porcelain in their hands, some holding gold and silver jewelry in their hands, and some holding coveted white flowers and silver.

"You can't take this, I'm not alive. "A noble lady hugged the thigh of a white tiger guard.

"you. Bai Huwei kicked him impatiently and kicked the lady three feet away: "Stinky woman, get out." ”

The entire Su Mansion was shrouded in a violent and oppressive atmosphere, but Ye Hu seemed to be blind to everything that happened in the courtyard, and leisurely sat in the original Su torture position in the council hall and sipped tea.

"Brother Ye, I think this is almost over, it's better to go back and recover your life. "The ghost face on the side is really a little unbearable.

"Brother Ghost, Your Majesty asked us to bring back 100,000 taels of stolen tax silver. Ye Hu skimmed the tea leaves floating on the water with the lid of the bowl: "How can we go home empty-handed." ”

"Brother Ye, it seems that you don't understand what I mean. The ghost leaned in front of Ye Hu: "Your Majesty asked us to bring back the tax silver, but he didn't say that he wanted to use this rude way to copy the Su Mansion." ”

"Brother Ghost, this is Ye's errand, so I won't bother you. Ye Hu squinted his eyes and enjoyed the big red robe: "This Su Mansion is worthy of being one of the four major families, and this tea is really superb." ”

"Hey, since that's the case, I won't say much about it below, and it's all up to Brother Ye to decide everything here. Ghostface got up and walked out of the house, and a snow-white dove flew down on his shoulder.
