Chapter 529: A Test Two
Ruicao, who suddenly spoke up, said that she had a test for Mu Yixing, and only if Mu Yixing passed, she could take Ayu to Qiupu County.
Mu Yixing, who was rushing towards Mu Yirong with excitement, suddenly stopped moving, his body seemed to be frozen, and he turned his head stiffly and looked at Seocho.
"Cousin Xiaocao'er, what did you just say?"
"I said that there is a test for you, and only if you pass it, I will agree to let you go to Qiupu County. ”
"It's useless for you to disagree, my eldest brother has already agreed. ”
"I changed my mind. ”
Mu Yirong, who was relaxed about his words, picked up the wine bowl with a smile and took another sip.
Mu Yixing, whose body was weak, slipped under the stool like a squid without a spine, but immediately jumped up violently, and shouted to Seocho like a rooster crowing: "Xiaocao'er, didn't you stand on my side just now and approve of my trip to Qiupu County." Why did you suddenly change your mind?"
Glancing at Seocho above the roof, he quickly withdrew his gaze: "Because something covers the moon, I'm not in a beautiful mood, so I want to test you." ”
"I'll take a moment now, and the adults of Jingzhao Mansion will definitely sentence me to defend myself. ”
After saying this, Mu Yixing sat back on the stool and sighed helplessly.
"I can't help you, you say, what kind of test?"
Glancing at Seocho on the roof again, he took out two copper coins from the money bag and handed them to Mu Yixing.
Mu Yirong, who was holding the wine bowl, glanced at it hurriedly, and then took another sip of wine casually, but the corners of his eyes trembled slightly, indicating that his heart was rippling.
Mu Yixing pinched the two copper coins and looked at them again and again, and then asked Seocho, this is the test for him?
Seocho nodded and was about to speak, but Mu Yixing stretched out his hand to stop him.
"Cousin Xiaocao'er, don't speak, let me guess, what's wrong with these two copper coins?"
Mu Yixing said, put the copper coin to the end of his nose and sniffed, and then muttered, "There is no smell of blood." ”
Then, he put it in his hand and flipped it again, as if he had a subtle sense of something, but he was not sure, so after two more flips, he took out the same two copper coins from his purse.
After placing the four copper coins on the palm of his hand and comparing them carefully over and over again, Mu Yixing's eyes widened suddenly, he looked at Seocho, and asked in a voice that couldn't hide his excitement, "Where did you get it from?"
After asking this, he didn't wait for Seocho to answer, he immediately looked around vigilantly, and then lowered his voice very low, and asked Seocho if he knew the question of this copper coin?
Ruicao nodded, and then informed Mu Yixing that this was found in the house where the deceased Heming Dao Chang lived in the Lingfu of Lantian County when Dali Temple was investigating the Bingjian hidden corpse case in Lantian County before.
Hearing that Seocho had found these two copper coins in a hidden place like a rat hole, Mu Yixing couldn't help but give a thumbs up in admiration, but then his face changed, and the matter of privately minting money can be big or small.
Although there have been counterfeit money circulating in the market in all dynasties, the problem behind this should not be underestimated.
Privately minted coins are often related to conspiracy to rebel, Mu Yixing doesn't understand whether Seocho is just using two privately minted coins to test his discernment ability, or does he have other ideas?
Glancing at Seocho on the roof again, Mu Yixing, who was a little strong at this time, turned his head to look at Mu Yixing, and couldn't help but raise his voice and said: "Big brother, no matter what you and Cousin Xiaocao'er are planning, this private money thing can't be touched." If you don't get it right, it's not just a matter of the two of you losing your heads. ”
If someone is really minting money privately and wants to rebel, then the forces behind it must have the confidence to compete with the imperial court. And such a force is definitely not something that one or two courtiers can contend with.
Seeing that Mu Yirong and Seocho were silent, Mu Yixing couldn't help but be a little anxious, if Dao Ruicao's head was not wanted, he could give it to her.
So saying, he staggered to his feet, stretched out his hands, and began to pull out the head of the grass as if he were pulling a turnip.
Mu Yirong, who was amused by the success, pulled the somewhat drunk Mu Yixing to sit down helplessly, saying that they just picked up two privately minted coins, and they were not in contact with any earth-shattering cases, so he didn't want to make a fuss.
Mu Yixing, who didn't believe it, asked him if his eldest brother was telling the truth, but he immediately shook his head in disbelief, saying that since he was a child, he has been coaxed by Mu Yirong too much, and now he won't be fooled again!
Mu Yixing, whose tongue grew bigger because of drunkenness, turned his head to look at Seocho: "Cousin Xiaocao'er, you won't lie, tell me, is there really no case involved behind these two privately minted coins?"
Ruicao, who held the two privately minted coins in his hand, had a serious expression: "Regarding these two copper coins, I did find some problems. ”
As soon as these words came out, the two brothers Mu Yirong and Mu Yixing's eyes widened at the same time, and then Mu Yixing covered Seocho's mouth.
"Cousin Cao'er, do you know what you're talking about? No, whatever you want to say next, don't say it, it will rot in your stomach. ”
Mu Yixing, who couldn't hide his consternation, covered Seocho's mouth stiffly, and approached Seocho's ear like a perverted kidnapper, and said in a low and somewhat nervous voice: "Cousin Xiaocao'er, it's not me who scares you. If you talk nonsense, be careful that when you wake up tomorrow morning, your head will be gone. ”
Seocho, who was sprayed with alcohol by Mu Yixing, had already stepped forward before Mu Yixing was pushed away, and pulled Mu Yixing away, and patted Mu Yixing on the back hard, so that he would hurry back to rest when he was drunk, and don't tell ghost stories here to scare people.
"What a hell story, I'm telling the truth about everyone's lives!"
Mu Yixing, who was roaring and screaming, successfully woke up Bao'er, who was sitting under the eaves and leaning on Laixi's shoulder, drowsy.
Bao'er, who was rubbing her eyes, asked Laixi vaguely, what the hell is the second young master Mu Yixing shouting, is it haunted?
Laixi patted Bao'er on the arm and told her to continue sleeping, and when the banquet broke up in a while, he would wake her up.
The sleepy insects were scared away by Mu Yixing's loud voice, and Bao'er, who had lost her sleepiness, looked up at the night sky, and said that the moon was almost drunk by the second young master, when would she be able to disperse, she really couldn't stand it!
Lai Xi, who has been listening to the conversation between Mu Yirong and the three of them, is not worried about whether the banquet will be dispersed at this time, but whether Miss Biao, who has been talking endlessly, and the second young master, who keeps shouting, will be thrown into the well by the eldest young master?
Bao'er, who didn't hear what Mu Yirong and the three of them were talking about, thought that Ruicao and Mu Yixing were drinking too much and were playing drunk, and said that she now wanted to tie up Miss Biao and the second young master together and throw them into the well!
