Jinghong Building

He Shuquan left in front of Mrs. Renyi's mansion, and Liuxia knew it backwards, but she didn't know He Shuquan's identity.

"Miss Liuxia, I went to check it out. The boy's name is Aquan. He is a gangster who collects protection fees. He came here to inquire about He Da's family, and I think he was asking for information for others."

It has been less than two days since He Dadang lived in, and at least twenty people have sent me appointees.

These people were either merchants or officials who went south back then.

According to the news from Jinghonglou, many people are asking about He Dadang's preferences, such as jade or agate, Longjing or Biluochun, Su embroidery or Shu embroidery, and a young man with a good face.

Of course, not only was he inquired about He Dadang's preferences, but He Xiulong was also inquired about it. It was strange that the overwhelming rumors about He Xiulong were gone now. However, Liuxia was not surprised at all, and she was absolutely powerful. In front of you, what is that trick of spitting on the stars?

Therefore, He Shuquan's appearance was not taken seriously. In the eyes of Liuxia and others, he was here to inquire about the news. If he really found useful news, the news would be bought by an official or a merchant from the south.

And this matter was quickly verified.

He Ran liked to eat the old woman's sugar cakes. He Shuquan originally only told Master He San, but as soon as he came out of Old Man Yu's house, he met Li Wu who was having **** with him.

"A Quan, where have you been going these two days? You won't come to make a fortune?"

He Shuquan hurriedly asked, "What's the matter of getting rich?"

Li Wusi looked around and lowered his voice and said, "Don't you know yet? Now as long as you can find out the preferences of the Lord He family and the brave general, let alone the two of them, even the preferences of the maids around He family, It's worth two taels of silver."

He Shuquan's eyes lit up: "A maid is worth two taels of silver? How much does He Da Zheng's family deserve?"

Li Wu stretched out a slap, shook it in front of He Shuquan, and said, "It's worth this number."

"Five liang?" He Shuquan asked hurriedly.

Li Wu gave him a look of contempt: "The **** five taels are fifty taels!"

"Fifty taels? So much?" He Shuquan exclaimed.

"Of course, it's the Lord Wang who lives in Zouma Lane. Yesterday, he spent fifty taels to buy a news, real money, fifty taels. This was reported by the servants in Lord Wang's mansion. You can't make any mistakes. .”

He Shuquan widened his eyes: "It's really fifty taels. My God, what kind of news is so valuable?"

Li Wu shook his head: "Of course they won't tell it. Can the news of fifty taels of silver be spread casually? If someone hears it, won't this news be bought in vain? That's it, there are so many today. People were wandering outside the Wang Lord’s Mansion, let alone, I really heard some news."

"What news?" Now, as long as it is related to He Ran, He Shuquan is interested.

Li Wu said, "I know you are so poor that you are so poor that you can tell you nothing. Early this morning, Lord Wang sent someone out to find the best golden nanmu in Jinling City."

He Shuquan had heard of the golden nanmu, and he hurriedly asked, "Is the golden nanmu to be given to He Dadang? He Dadang is not old, right? Do you need to prepare longevity materials at such a young age?"

Li Wu was stunned for a moment, took a few steps back, and asked himself to stay away from this stupidity. If someone heard it, he would think they were in the same group.

"Don't talk nonsense. He Dada's family is just right. What kind of longevity materials should I prepare? I'll do you have to make it? I'll do you have to make longevity materials by golden nanmu. You can go quickly. I'll go and make money. I won't be with you. Talked."

After Li Wu said that, he was about to leave. He Shuquan grabbed him: "Who else is willing to pay fifty taels of silver to buy news except Lord Wang?"

Li Wuyi was stunned: "Do you have news?"

He Shuquan nodded.

"News from He Dajia?"

He Shuquan nodded again.

Li Wu narrowed his eyes and looked up and down, but still didn't believe it: "Where did you hear the news? I heard that those who are willing to spend a lot of money to buy news are all people with identities, and they can I don’t cheat if I want to cheat. Don’t let me give you a discount if you don’t get fifty taels of silver at that time.”

He Shuquan became anxious when he heard this. Who are you looking down on?

"Don't you believe that I have any news about the boss? That's because you don't know who I am."

"Aren't you A Quan? By the way, you still owe me fifty cents. I don't know who you are?" Li Wu disdained.

He Shuquan snorted coldly: "Listen, my name is He Shuquan, Zhili Zhending native, have you heard it clearly? What have you remembered?"

Li Wu: "Your name is He Shuquan. What is it? Really Ding? Your surname is He? Are you saying true or false? You are really a true Ding person? You are really a true Ding person, and you are really a true surname?"

He Shuquan: "It's even more true than pearls. He Dadang and I are not only of the same surname, but also of the same clan and branch. Her father is my uncle, my father is her third uncle, and I am her cousin. She is my eldest sister!”

Li Wu glared at He Shuquan and suddenly remembered something. About two or three years ago, A Quan had just been with them. Once everyone was reading a comic strip together. A Quan suddenly said that He Ran was his sister. Everyone thought He was bragging, forgot who it was, and even slapped A Quan in the face, making him talk nonsense.

"A Quan, why didn't you say you were a true decisive person before?"

As a gangster, there is no rule to check household registration. A Quan spoke in a northern accent and said that he came from the capital, and no one doubted it.

He Shuquan sniffed: "Can I say it? If I say it, why don't you hand me over to the yamen?"

Li Wu hugged He Shuquan's shoulder: "Look at what you said, you really underestimated your brother. We brothers are all living things. Even if the yamen really came to capture you at that time, my brother fought for more than a hundred pounds. , I also want to protect you. I have two new smoked rabbits. Let's go to my house. Let's have a few drinks."

At night, Mr. He San was lying alone in bed and dreaming, and He Shuquan did not go home. Mr. He San had long been used to it. If He Shuquan went home at the right time, Mr. He San would suspect that he must have caused trouble outside.

On the same night, Zhong Yi came to Jinling from Yangzhou.

Yes, Zhong Yi went to Yangzhou after receiving He Ran’s letter.

The first thing he did after arriving in Yangzhou was to launch thunder methods to investigate the people who spread rumors to He Xiulong.

At that time, He Xiulong had already set out to attack Zhenjiang. She didn't know that she was fighting **** in front, and someone was fighting for her reputation in the rear.

Ten days later, Zhong Yi arrested more than 300 people, and the prison of Yangzhou Government was filled with stuff.

Some of these more than 300 people, some of whom were spreading rumors, some hired people to spread rumors, some organized rumors, and some followed suit and made a fuss.

Among these people, some collect money to do things for others, and some simply don’t like He Xiulong as a woman.

These people were judged by Zhong Yi personally.

Lingchi was killed and five people were sentenced to death. The remaining people were sentenced to twenty to fifty, and more than eighty strong men were assigned to hard labor camps and could not be released for ten or eight years.

On the day of execution, except for the six people who were sentenced, all the other prisoners were taken to the execution ground to watch the beheading. Two people were scared to death on the spot, and the others either vomited, were incontinent, cried, or fainted on the spot. Because of the large number of people, the case was not handled not long ago, and Zhong Yi came to Jinling to report his work.

On the way to Jinling, Zhong Yi was stunned when he learned that He Ran had lived in the former Duke Ding Mansion, and when He Ran had named Old Lady Meng as the wife of Renyi.

He knew that He Jinghong and Old Lady Meng had a good relationship, but he did not expect that He Ran would respect Old Lady Meng so much.

Could it be that He Jinghong told He Ran about the deeds of Mrs. Meng back then?

I think this is the case, otherwise He Ran would not have no grudges against her with the relationship between Mrs. Meng and Duke Ding.

Zhong Yi quickly convinced himself that he arrived in Jinling at night and went to see He Ran after he came.

As soon as he arrived in front of the mansion, Zhong Yi instinctively felt someone was following him. It seemed that Jinling City also needed to be cleaned.

When Zhong Yi saw He Ran, He Xiulong happened to be there. As soon as he entered the door, Xiao Ba flew into the air with a whistle and screamed loudly: "The villain is here, the villain is here!"

He Ran: "I haven't taught it."

Xiao Ba: "Your Majesty doesn't need to be taught, you will be able to learn by yourself."

No mistakes, one song, one content, one in 6, one book, one bar, one reading!

Zhong Yi didn't know anything like a bird. He slowly took out a handful of shelled melon seeds from his arms and handed them over. Xiao Ba immediately shouted, "Come here, test the poison for Master Ba."

Zhong Yi picked up a few melon seeds and threw them into his mouth. Xiao Ba shouted, "There is no rules, you can eat less!"

Xiaoli came over and took Xiaoba and the melon seedlings away. Xiaoba was held in Xiaoli's arms and shouted, "Let me go down, the Eighth Master will sink together with the villain!"

The shouts became farther and farther away, and the room became quiet.

He Xiulong couldn't help but burst out laughing.

Zhong Yi pursed his lips tightly and didn't say anything. The bird was left to He Ran by that man. His body was completely different from before, but every time this bird saw him, he didn't look good.

In those last years, the man must have complained about the bird, so that even if he was reborn, the bird still didn't like him.

He Ran smiled: "Xiao Ba made me spoiled and said nothing. Commander Zhong should not be as knowledgeable as it."

Zhong Yi smiled rare, He Ran wanted to say that you should stop laughing, your smile was really a bit creepy.

Even He Xiulong moved his eyes elsewhere. Commander Zhong still had a little color when he didn't smile. Fortunately, she came out of the sea of ​​corpses and blood, otherwise she would have been scared to have nightmares. .

Zhong Yi himself had no idea. He thought that his smile was like the sunshine shining through the iceberg, which could dissolve all misunderstandings and resentment in the world.

So this rare smile is enough.

He put away the smile on his face, and He Ran and He Xiulong breathed a sigh of relief.

Zhong Yi smiled, it was too lethal.

Worried that he would like to learn from Tang Bohu, he smiled one after another, and then he quickly changed the subject and asked about the important matters.

Speaking of serious matters, the atmosphere in the room finally came to normal.

For the past two or three months, He Xiulong has devoted all her thoughts to war. She first deliberately ignored the filthy words that slander her, but later she was thrown away when she became busy.

It was not until now that she realized that when she was sieging the city and plundering the land, the He Da family had sent Zhong Yi to clear her name.

"Big boss, Commander Zhong, thank you."

He Xiulong stood up and bowed deeply to the two of them.

He Ran said, "I know you don't care, but I care. I don't allow anyone to slander my general."

Zhong Yi narrowed his eyes slightly and said, "The boss, Jinling City is not stable. Then again, whether it is Yangzhou or Jinling, as long as it is a place where scholars are crowded, there are many unstable factors. By the way, the boss, this Many people have come to send me a visit in a few days. I wonder if there are any posts from big families and academies?”

He Ran smiled and shook her head: "Didn't you guessed it? No, these aristocratic families and academies have a high opinion of themselves, obviously they have not accepted me yet. Those who send posts come from requests, most of them are merchants and officials from the south. .”

Zhong Yi snorted coldly: "It's all used to it. I'll take out a whole family to kill the nine clans. I think they dare to do it."

He Ran's mouth twitched, simple and rough, but it will have a significant effect in a short period of time, but it will only treat the symptoms but not the root cause in a short period of time.

He Ran's voice was cold: "I think they are all idle. The imperial examinations have stopped over the years, and they have lost the direction of their struggle. In addition, the court is turbulent, they are idle, they come together when they have nothing to do, and they are sad from the wind and autumn. , when it comes to satirizing the government affairs and evaluating officials, after a long time, some things will happen.

People just can't be idle. ”

Zhong Yi heard He Ran’s implication: “Is the boss going to get the official exam to Jiangnan?”

He Ran said: "I held the official exam mainly to select attendants. At that time, there were a lack of available people. Now we have a reserve of officials. The next official exam will be more refined and detailed. I have given Mr. Feng. I wrote a letter and asked him to come up with the charter as soon as possible."

In other words, exams must be taken. In the past, the boy test, county test, and provincial test must be taken, and a new examination system must be added. Not only scholars need to take exams, but also craftsmen need to take exams, either in exams or preparing for exams.

The next day, Zhong Yi changed into casual clothes and took his Jinyiwei to the streets.

As soon as he walked out of Mrs. Renyi's mansion, he heard Xiao Ba's voice coming from above his head: "The villain goes out of the street, the pedestrians dodge!"

Zhongyi

At this time, in a house in Jinling, Li Wuzheng carefully picked up the teacup and took a sip: "Good tea, it's really good tea."

The person sitting in the head said lightly, "Give him some money and bring it back."

Li Wu quickly stood up to thank him.

The man reached out and signaled him to sit down and asked, "Where is that person He Shuquan now?"

Li Wu: "The villain invited him to drink and gave him a sweat pill. He was sleeping at the villain's house. He couldn't wake up until night."

The man was quite satisfied: "Okay, he did a good job. He was not old. He probably didn't go south alone, where is his family?"

Li Wu said, "This A Quan has a father. His father is good at gambling, but now he has climbed up to watch the venue. His father has also got a job to watch the venue. As for his grandmother, he may be defamatory to tell you. Ears” (the end of this chapter)
