Daming Junior Scholar

"I see."

After Chen Heng agreed, he brought Bai Xi and two people into the room, and after a while, they came to a courtyard, but today Zhu Yi did not make any disguise, sitting alone on a chair, When he saw Bai Xi, he smiled slightly, stood up and said hello, "Master Bai, long time no see."

"Ah? See you soon." Encountered in this situation, Bai Xi didn't know what to say, so he responded casually, and then stood in front of Zhu Yi, not knowing what to say, but two words Legs trembled nervously.

Zhu Yi saw Bai Xi's reaction in his eyes, but he only regarded Bai Xi's reaction as being afraid of himself. After sitting down again, he asked straight to the point: "Old man Bai, there is something I want to ask You, your artillery factory are the ones who have the most say?"

"Ah? This..." Bai Xi blinked, thinking of Tang Lin's order, she said, "It's Mr. He."

"Except Mr. He?" This answer was definitely not what Zhu Yi wanted.

"Then it should be Mr. Bai Huatian Bai." Bai Xi replied honestly.

"Then besides old man Bai?" The old man's status is indeed very high, as can be known from the guards around him.

"Well..." Bai Xi really hesitated for a moment, thought carefully and said, "Then it should be Mr. Bai's apprentice Zhou Jing."

"Zhou Jing?" It was the first time Zhu Yi heard of this name, but when he heard that this man was Bai Huatian's apprentice, he immediately became much excited, and quickly asked, "Then what does he do in the artillery factory?"

"It's hard to say." Bai Xi shook his head and said, "Anyway, he can be seen in any process. Usually, when Mr. Bai is not in good health, he is the one who directs the factory."

After going through so many detours, I finally asked the news I wanted the most. Compared with the old Mr. Bai, this Zhou Jing was the one I wanted the most, and he was younger and more likely to be attracted by gold and silver. Tempted, as long as I bring him back to Nanchang Mansion, I will be able to build the Franc cannon I want.

Thinking of this, Zhu Yi nodded in satisfaction, stretched out his hand and took out another ingot weighing twelve taels, handed it to Bai Xi, and said with a smile: "Master Bai, I have something to ask for your help. "

"What's the matter?" Bai Xi asked anxiously.

"Take me to the artillery factory tomorrow and help me get to know who Zhou Jing is."

Chapter 1217

Entering the Artillery Factory again, under Bai Xi's identification, Zhu Yi finally saw who Zhou Jing was. The moment he saw him, Zhu Yi almost decided that this Zhou Jing was the one he wanted the most that person.

The next question is how to bring him back.

Fortunately for Zhu Yi, the manpower around Zhou Jing is not as strict as that of old man Bai. Apart from the old man Bai's daughter, there are only four ordinary nursing homes for protection. If it weren't for the fact that there were people coming and going all the way, Zhu Yi even planned to tie the two of them together. go back.

After hesitating again and again, Zhu Yi set the time to do it tonight. Just after dark, he led his men to do it immediately. After capturing Zhou Jing and his wife, they quickly brought them to the pier. The prepared boat took everyone away together and returned to Nanchang Mansion by water.

In Zhu Yi's mind, it should be very easy to kidnap these two people. The nursing homes in his house are no match for his subordinates at all. They just waited for the time to set off when everything was ready. At that time, Tang Lin suddenly appeared in the inn where he was staying and asked to see him.

If it was someone else, I might be able to find an excuse to turn it down, but Tang Lin... he and himself have been saved, and he shouldn't refuse it out of emotion and reason, and Zhu Yi is still afraid that if he refuses Maybe He Jiaan would notice something, so after thinking about it, he decided to go see Tang Lin.

When he reached the lobby of the inn, Zhu Yi greeted him with a smile, and affectionately held Tang Lin's shoulder and said, "It's been a long time since I saw you. Brother Tang's martial arts seem to be getting better?"

Tang Lin smiled and said: "Where is it, the young prince's demeanor is still the same as before."

"Haha." It was just some unnutritious words. After Zhu Yi smiled, he let Tang Lin sit down, and said with a smile: "Xiao Wang has been in Pazhou for a long time, and I wanted to have a good talk with Brother Tang. It's a pity that Brother Tang doesn't have time all the time, it's better to hit the day than to choose a date, since Brother Tang is here, it's better to decide now, come and prepare the food and drink, Brother Tang and I have a good drink."

As soon as Zhu Yi finished speaking, Tang Lin said hastily: "My lord, wait a minute, let's put the wine aside for a while. I came here today because I was ordered by my husband."

"Oh? What is Master He's order?" Zhu Yi asked strangely.

"That's right." Tang Lin said with a smile: "Since the young prince arrived in Paju, my husband wanted to invite the young prince to taste our Pazhou specialties, but he has been entangled in all kinds of things and can't get out. It just so happens that I have free time tonight." , so I want to invite the little prince to have a meal, I wonder if the little prince is free?"

Uh?

How could it be such a coincidence?

If it weren't for the calm look on Tang Lin's face, Zhu Yi would almost have thought that he was being targeted by someone sent by He Jia'an, otherwise how could he have invited himself to dinner today by such a coincidence?

After staring at Tang Lin for a while, the unnatural expression on Zhu Yi's face disappeared in a flash, and he forced a smile: "It just so happens that Xiao Wang has been in Pazhou for such a long time, and he plans to Then leave, since the master has invited, then Xiao Wang will arrive on time."

After receiving Zhu Yi's affirmative answer, the smile on Tang Lin's face became even brighter. He nodded and said, "If that's the case, at three o'clock in the unitary hour, we will see each other for what we eat, and we will see each other."

"See you soon."

Zhu Yi agreed with a smile, and when Tang Lin turned to leave, the smile suddenly disappeared from his face, replaced by a gloomy expression.

Chen Heng at the side leaned over and asked in a low voice: "My lord, we can't go, if the He family has any malicious intentions, you are throwing yourself into a trap."

How could Zhu Yi not know the truth here, but Zhou Jing has not yet obtained it, if he fled back to Nanchang Mansion in such a desperate manner, he might never have the opportunity to return to Paju in the future. The grand wish of the king will be in vain, so even if it is a risk, you have to try it once.

After thinking about it again and again, Zhu Yi ordered in a low voice: "In this case, let's split up. I'll take a few people to see He Jiaan, and you take the rest to arrest Zhou Jing and his wife, and then send them directly to the boat at the pier. , and then bring it back to Shiweitian to pick me up, and we will leave Paju immediately."

"It's just..." Chen Heng was still a little worried that He Jia'an would be unfavorable to Zhu Yi.

Zhu Yi shook his head and said, "Don't worry, as long as my father doesn't raise the flag of rebellion, I will be a relative of the emperor. If He Jia'an wants to touch me, I'm afraid he has to think about the consequences."

It sounded like Zhu Yi was right, Chen Heng finally agreed and began to prepare for what he was going to do tonight.

It was dusk very quickly, and there were only two quarters of an hour left before the appointment. Zhu Yi finally packed up and walked out of the inn. In order to deceive others, he didn't even take away some sundries, pretending to be a meeting He left the inn as a guest.

Halfway through, the group of people divided into two groups. Chen Heng took away most of the people, and together with the support force sent by King Ning, nearly a hundred people went to capture Zhou Jing, while Zhu Yi took only four people. A bodyguard went straight to see He Jiaan.

When it was time to go downstairs to Shiweitian, it was still a little short of the agreed time, but Tang Lin had already been waiting downstairs. When he saw Zhu Yi coming, he hurried up to greet him, and said with a smile: "My lord! , my husband has been waiting here for a long time, please go upstairs."

"Okay." Zhu Yi nodded slightly, and with the demeanor that a son of a family should have, he followed Tang Lin to a private room on the top floor with square steps.

As soon as the door opened, Zhu Yi saw He Jiaan standing up with a smile in the room, cupped his hands and said, "I haven't seen you for a few days, I wonder if the little prince had a good time here in Paju?"

"Hehe, Mr. He really chose a good place. Compared with Nanchang Mansion, Paju is really a good place with outstanding people. If Mr. He didn't want to take him in, Xiao Wang would not want to leave." Zhu Yi was hypocritically polite.

"Oh?" He Jia'an was taken aback for a moment, blinked his eyes and said: "Since the young prince has plans to stay, then he will stay. He is not talented, but he can teach the young prince some experience in dealing with people. As for Ning Wang , it’s better to bring a letter with you.”

Uh?

How is this going?When you begged to stay at the beginning, you just didn't want to, but now you are planning to leave, but you insist on staying.

Zhu Yi immediately felt a little displeased, but smiled wryly on his face: "Xiao Wang accepted Mr. Wang's kindness, but when he came, his father said that if Mr. Wang was busy with work, he would let Xiao Wang return to Nanchang as soon as possible, so there is no trouble." Sir, Xiao Wang will return to Nanchang early tomorrow morning."

"Ah? So soon?" He Jia'an sighed with regret, and couldn't help but sigh: "If this is the case, then this meal is considered to be practiced for the little prince."

After all, He Jiaan ordered: "Tang Lin, go and tell the shopkeeper to use all their abilities to satisfy the little prince."

Tang Lin went down, but Zhu Yi was a little dumbfounded. He originally planned to find an opportunity to leave Shiweitian after eating for a while, so as to join Chen Heng and others, but hearing what He Jiaan meant, it was obvious that he would have to eat for a long time ah.

Chapter 1218

While Zhu Yi was talking with He Jia'an, Chen Heng had already led his subordinates gradually approaching Zhou Jing's house.

Since arriving in Paju, the status of Mr. Bai has been greatly improved. He directly lived in the big house prepared for him by He Jiaan. He lived alone in the main room in the backyard of the house, while Zhou Jing and his wife occupied the The west courtyard of the house.

Although it was only a side courtyard, it was several yards away from the main house. Chen Heng had carefully calculated that he would try his best to take Zhou Jing away from here while not disturbing old master Bai's guards.

Of course, I also made preparations in case the Bai Family Nursing Hospital was disturbed. About 70 to [-] people were arranged in the middle of the two courtyards. As long as this side is successful, the other side can retreat.

As for whether there will be sacrifices... Chen Heng has long been out of his mind.
