When Xiao Jinyan and Jin Buchang arrived in the capital, it was the end of September.

Due to his special identity, for the sake of safety, he changed his identity, Mo Jiawei.

This is one of the several high-grade masks that Lei Zhenyu gave him at the beginning, and Lu Yin, life is readily available, more than forty years old, goatee, thin appearance, left-handed, studied under the Mojia Boxing Gym, and is also a person who makes boxing, knows martial arts, but it is not very high, and his cultivation is in the middle of the realm, and he once broke into Longhu Beach at night and rescued a number of women who have lost their footing.

What's more, he has no relatives and no reason in the capital, and he also has a house. Although Xiao Jinyan has a place to live near Dengwen Courtyard, he obviously can't go to live, and the secret agents in the court are Sibu, and the ghost knows if he will stare there.

Therefore, the Mo family is an excellent cover for this identity.

As for Jin Buchang, he became the entourage of Master Mo Boxer, and after the city gate official surveyed the road guide and checked his appearance, he did not obstruct too much and returned to the capital.

The two came to the east of Di'anmen and found the house.

Where Di'anmen is located, it is quite close to the imperial palace, there are Shangyi Supervisor, Weaving and Dyeing Bureau, Paper Room, Anle Hall, etc., and many secretaries and treasurers serving the palace are built here. This house is separated from the Weaving and Dyeing Bureau by a street, the yard is not big, and it is slightly dilapidated, but it can be regarded as the foot of the Son of Heaven. According to the biographical records, this courtyard was the residence of an old eunuch in the previous dynasty, this old eunuch had no children and no daughters, only the Mo family was a nephew, so the house was left to him after his death.

The only problem is that the deed is in China Merchants Bank. At the beginning, when the Mo family was in order to explore the rivers and lakes, they mortgaged the house to Qian Zhuang and exchanged it for three hundred taels of silver.

That was three years ago.

Now back in the capital, he took the bill to China Merchants Bank.

There are a lot of people in the money village, looking at the dress is either rich or expensive, after all, it is the first money village under the root of the imperial city, with a good reputation and many customers every day. Among them, there are many palace ladies and eunuchs, who also come here to deposit and withdraw gold and silver and exchange silver tickets.

On an errand in the palace, there is always some unsightly income, and there is no place to store it, so you can exchange it for a silver ticket to feel at ease.

Although there are many people, the service is also considerate. A guy brought fragrant tea, and the two sat on a chair waiting for the call, Xiao Jinyan looked at Qian Zhuang while drinking tea.

The conversation between the two palace maids attracted his attention. Although the voices of the two were small, they couldn't escape Xiao Jinyan's ears.

"This time the palace was closed, and it took seven or eight days in a row before we had a chance to come out, and I was so scared these days that I thought I was going to die inside. A thin palace maid said.

Another fat palace maid echoed, "Isn't it, the sixteen palace maids in the second room of the first room, as well as more than a dozen fathers-in-law in the imperial dining room and the imperial horse supervisor, were all killed by the rod, and they are all about to catch up with the time in the year of Shizong Renyin." ”

During the reign of Emperor Sejong, several palace maids attempted to strangle the emperor, but after the failure, a great purge was carried out in the palace, also known as the Imin Palace Rebellion.

"I guess I've heard something I shouldn't have said. The slender palace maid said, "I heard that Dean Li scolded the saint in the palace, and the saint was angry and killed all the people who heard it." ”

"And who are you listening to?"

"Gonggong Li in the imperial dining room, he escaped because of deafness. After that, he said in a low voice, "You don't know, in fact, he is not deaf at all, he pretends to be deaf on weekdays, but he just looks deaf, and many people do not shy away from him when discussing things, so he is well-informed." ”

The fat palace maid said, "Then he told you this?"

The thin palace maid said, "His old pervert hits me all day long, and if I use a little trick, he will tell me everything." I have to save all the money I have saved so that I don't have a chance in the future. ”

When Xiao Jinyan heard this, he asked tentatively, "Two girls, I don't know what you are talking about Dean Li, but Dean Li of Dengwen Academy?"

When the two palace maids saw this goatee, they were vigilant in their hearts, and they even stood up, "No, we didn't say anything." ”

They were afraid that these two people were good at listening to the secret agents, so they were so frightened that they didn't even save the money, so they left.

Jin Bu said, "Where is it so direct when dealing with girls?"

Xiao Jinyan scratched his head and asked, "Is it wrong?"

Jin Buchang asked, "Are you tickling yourself, are you comfortable?"

"Comfortable. ”

"Would you be comfortable if someone came to you on the street for some reason and tickled you?" he added, "People have to communicate with each other step by step in order to slowly let the other person off guard." ”

Xiao Jinyan said, "Then you go and ask for me, ask clearly, and invite you to eat roast duck in the evening." ”

Jin Buchang followed the two palace maids out.

Soon it was Xiao Jinyan's turn, and when the other party learned that he was here to redeem the deed, the guy led him to the second shopkeeper's hut.

The second shopkeeper carefully checked the bills and his guide, etc., before saying, "It was you who mortgaged the house to us and took away three hundred taels of silver, two cents of interest, three years, and now you have exceeded half a year, plus penalty interest and fruits, a total of two thousand two hundred taels." ”

Xiao Jinyan smacked his tongue and said, "Shopkeeper, have you miscalculated?" Three points of profit, three years, even if it is four years, even if the profit is rolling, it is only five hundred taels at most, how can you calculate two thousand two?"

The second shopkeeper said, "At that time, when the deed was made, it was stipulated that if you don't redeem it within three years, we have the right to dispose of the house, and now in the past three years, the house price has risen all over the sky, and the house in the same location is now sold for two thousand five hundred taels, and you want two thousand two, and you have found a buyer for your house, two thousand two, if you want to redeem it, we will sell it." ”

"How can you borrow money from your bank, and the interest is not based on the principal, but also according to the price of the house?"

The second shopkeeper said, "It's all said, it's turned into death." You either give the money or leave, or we will report to the authorities. ”

Xiao Jinyan said in his heart that if he really reported to the official, things would be in trouble. Anyway, he still had money on him, so he didn't argue with him, obediently paid the money and got the deed back and left.

The second shopkeeper saw a stack of silver tickets in his arms and secretly wrote them down. As soon as Xiao Jinyan went out, the second shopkeeper came out with a few guys, "Mr. Mo, wait." ”

"What's wrong?"

"Your silver ticket is fake!"

Xiao Jinyan sneered in his heart, it is estimated that these guys saw that his silver ticket was exposed, and they had bad intentions and deliberately came to find trouble, so he said, "The ticket number is in order, and you are not responsible for leaving the counter." ”

The second shopkeeper said, "The responsibility is ours, and we are not responsible." If you take a fake silver ticket, this is not a trivial matter, either report it to the official or hand over the deed. ”

Xiao Jinyan didn't want to see the official, for fear of getting into unnecessary trouble.

And when the second shopkeeper saw his expression, he knew that his silver ticket was not coming from the right way, and he was even more reasonable, so he said, "Let's go, go to the official." ”

Xiao Jinyan said, "Okay, good, there's something to discuss." You see there's an alley over there, let's go over there and solve it?"

The second shopkeeper relied on the large number of people, and he could just make a mistake, so he came to the alley, ordered someone to watch the two ends of the alley, and had a showdown with Xiao Jinyan, "Mr. Mo, I'm afraid this silver is not clean, right?"

Xiao Jinyan said with a smile, "The high-quality horn paper, as well as the family seal of the Li family in Jinling, you say it's not clean, it means that the money of the Li family in Jinling is not clean?

After thinking about it, why am I talking to them about this, what else do I need to explain, and without waiting for them to do anything, Xiao Jinyan stepped forward, punched and kicked these people to the ground.

The second shopkeeper was beaten very lightly, and said, "My second uncle is a big internal guard, you deceive me today, be careful that he will settle accounts with you in the future." ”

When Xiao Jinyan heard this, he was angry, picked up his fist, and hit it like raindrops, and after a while, the second shopkeeper had a blue nose and swollen face, like a pig's head, begging for mercy again and again. "Don't fight, don't fight, I promise not to trouble you again. ”

Xiao Jinyan put away his fists and feet and patted the dust on his body, "You know where I live, if you want to seek revenge on me, just let your second uncle come!"

With that, he left the alley.

The two people guarding the entrance of the alley witnessed the scene, and they didn't dare to stop it, so they hurriedly got out of the way and went over to help the second shopkeeper up.

The second shopkeeper kept groaning, "Go find my second uncle!"

His second uncle lives on the opposite street, counting the days, he hasn't seen the second uncle for seven or eight days, he shouldn't be on duty today, and when he is found, he will go to the man surnamed Mo for revenge.

After a while, the guy came back with a very embarrassed expression, "Have you seen my second uncle?"

The man said, "See." ”

"Tell him I was beaten?"

The guy shook his head, "Didn't say that. ”

The second shopkeeper was dissatisfied, "Why don't you say it?"

He didn't listen. ”

The second shopkeeper jumped up on the ground, pointed at him and scolded, "Are you lazy? My second uncle has no heirs, and he loves me the most on weekdays, not to mention that I was beaten, even if others scolded me, he would wear the clothes of the forbidden army to vent my anger." ”

The guy said, "I'm afraid it won't work this time." ”

"Why?"

The man said in a low voice, "I went to the guard just now, and I saw your second uncle and a dozen generals covered in blood, and they were pulled out by a donkey cart, and it seemed that they couldn't survive." ”

His second uncle was one of the forbidden soldiers who were on duty at night when Li Chuntie scolded the emperor.

……

As soon as Xiao Jinyan entered the courtyard with his front foot, Jin came back without changing, his face was full of excitement, and he said, "I'll help you inquire clearly." ”

"How did you do that?"

Jin Buchang smiled, "I have more ways to deal with women than you." After that, he told Xiao Jinyan the news revealed by the two palace maids.

When he learned that Li Chuntie's palace scolding was ordered by His Majesty to be Ling Chi, Xiao Jinyan suddenly couldn't sit still, and was about to rush into the palace to save people.

Jin Buchang hurriedly stopped, "Big brother, don't be impulsive." ”

Xiao Jinyan said, "My senior brother is in trouble, how can I not be impulsive?"

"Practice has proved that when people are impulsive, they will make mistakes, and the palace is heavily guarded, if you accidentally startle the snake, the other party strengthens its defense, and then you want to enter, I am afraid it will be even more difficult. ”

Xiao Jinyan said, "I believe in my martial arts. ”

Jin Buchang asked, "How is Dean Li?"

Xiao Jinyan hesitated, "It's not as good." ”

"Even Dean Li can't escape, and your rash intrusion now is tantamount to a moth to a fire, so I think we should think about it in the long run. ”

"What's the long term?"

Jin Bu said, "Fill your stomach first, and then find out the situation." Also, you promised me a roast duck, Quanjude. ”

The authorities are obsessed.

Xiao Jinyan thought about it for a while, and then figured out the key. He also had three unicorn treasures in his arms, and at that time, Mr. Xu asked him to consult the Taoist of Yuxi, this national teacher of Longhu Mountain has always been good friends with his senior brother, and he should give him ideas.

"Let's go, eat roast duck!"

Xiao Jinyan took Jin Buchang and came to Jin Jude.

Jin Buchang looked at the signboard in front of the door, "Don't read this word completely, I don't read much, but I still know my surname." ”

Xiao Jinyan ignored him, "Eat it, don't eat it." With that, he walked in.

Jin Buchang was about to protest, when he saw a woman sitting by the window next to the store, ordering a whole roast duck, his eyes lit up, "Jin Jude, Jin Jude, sit here!"

Jin Buchang sat at a table next to the woman, looked her up and down, this woman was fair-skinned, slim, with a high nose, and she didn't look like a Ming person, so she asked, "Girl, isn't it a local?"

The woman was very elegant, eating a pancake with duck meat with relish, and did not pay attention to the gold.

Jin Buchang swallowed a mouthful of saliva.

The woman glanced up at him with a slightly dissatisfied look in her eyes. Jin Buchang smiled, "I'm sorry, I'm hungry." ”

The woman said, "You Central Plains people, are you all hungry ghosts?"

Jin Buchang smiled, "It's not either." Only when you see a girl who is so beautiful in the world will she occasionally be beautiful and expose her true nature. ”

The woman sneered, "The mouth is quite poor. ”

"I don't know what the girl is called?"

"Tuoba, Lan Ruo. ”
