There's something wrong with the lonely princess

Xie Yiyan followed Hu San to the new venue. Not to mention, it was really different. The previous night venue was a food stall, but now the environment is much quieter and less noisy. They all play in their own room.

Xie Yiyan had never been here before, so it was inevitable that he was a little curious. His curiosity was seen in Hu San's eyes, and it was also a kind of determination. The fat sheep have come to the door, so there is no reason not to slaughter them?

"This way please, Eldest Young Master."

Hu San led the way ahead, Xie Yiyan withdrew her thoughts after glancing at him twice, and followed up to the private room on the third floor, there was no one else in the private room, just a middle-aged man in his thirties, Xie Yiyan glanced at him Withdrawing his gaze, he asked Hu San: "Who do you want to introduce to me? Don't spoil my master's interest."

"No, no, this belongs to our shopkeeper." Hu San hurriedly introduced: "Shopkeeper, this is the Mr. Xie I told you about last time. Mr. Xie likes to play big games, so I specially recommended it to the shopkeeper today." Referral."

Xie Yiyan knew that this was the Zhou Mao that Xiaojing was talking about, so she nodded, "I don't know how you guys play here. I'm just here to learn the rules."

When he came up, he put the fan on the table, flicked his wrist, and looked addicted: "Hurry up and call someone."

"Mr. Xie is really a straightforward person." Zhou Mao gave Hu San a look: "It just so happens that I have a few friends here today, and they also like to play big games, so someone Zhou will do something for Mr. Xie." Line, let me introduce you to each other, if you play well, we will also be friends."

"Good talk, good talk."

After a few words of nonsense, Zhou Mao took Xie Yiyan to the gambling table. Before coming, Xiaojing explained to him that he must be generous and not stingy. Although Xie Yiyan was bleeding, he still smiled and took a Throw a handful of chips on the table, throwing it in such an atmosphere, it's like it's not money.

This time he was very careful, winning or losing the game, as if he was just having fun, and in the end he lost a little money, which was still within Xie Yiyan's acceptance range, and he said that he could come back to play again tomorrow.

"In this casino, there are winners and losers. Mr. Xie is in good condition, and he might be lucky tomorrow." Zhou Mao won money today, his face was full of oil, which was quite moisturized: "Mr. Xie is very open-minded, no Like some people, they are short-sighted and focus too much on winning or losing."

Xie Yiyan waved the fan in her hand: "It's true, my family is not short of this money, let's go, brother Zhou will get together some other day."

Zhou Mao waited for him to leave before telling the people around him: "Have you checked out the details of this man?"

"It's almost been found out. At first he said that he was visiting relatives, but we didn't believe it." Hu San whispered: "The family does have money, and the two of them spent more than that in our Taocheng these few days! "

Hu San stretched out a finger and shook it: "That is to say, the people from the Mu family in the two north are a little uncertain, I am asking people to go north to ask for a portrait of Mr. Zhang Mu's family, and I will be sure when the time comes. "

"Well, you're doing well, third child, but I think it's probably true." Zhou Mao clasped his hands, and the old god said: "You can't just look at a person's appearance, just like him, if it wasn't for rich people who could raise him That kind of demeanor? Ordinary people can't pretend, they don't dare to act like this without any family background. Only the rich and powerful people don't care about this, do you think we are playing this game?"

"It's not too small." Hu Sanhui said, "Our size starts from a hundred taels of silver."

"For others, he doesn't take it seriously at all. He didn't come to gamble, he came to spend money to play dice, understand?" Zhou Mao patted Hu San on the chest: "Arrange a few more tomorrow." Personally, make it bigger!"

"It's too big?" Hu San was a little worried: "I'm afraid no one would dare to sit with him if he's too big."

"Don't worry, I'll take care of it. Let's arrange it." Zhou Mao straightened his clothes: "This is a big fish. Didn't you say that they still plan to open a silk shop in Taocheng? No business to do in the future?"

Xie Yiyan, who was indeed going to play dice, returned to the inn, and saw Li Shengjing was busy with a pile of papers spread out on the table, which was in a mess. Xiao Jing was always a good boy who loved to be tidy, such a messy table, Xie Yiyan used to I haven't seen it.

"What are you looking at?" Sitting close together, Xie Yiyan took a piece of paper and found that it was a list of the relationships of several prominent families in Taocheng. What is the relationship between which family and which family? Relatives, which family has enmity with whom, listed it in detail, Xie Yiyan was dizzy seeing it.

Put it down quickly, and took a deep breath: "What is this going to do?"

"Did you have fun today?" Li Shengjing looked up at Xie Yiyan and poured him a cup of tea: "Have you seen Zhou Mao? How is he?"

"I saw it, but I didn't feel anything." Xie Yiyan took it and drank it, and then continued to ask: "What are you doing?"

"Currently Taocheng is in a state of delicate balance among the three parties. Zheng Gong is in the middle. Although the Zhou family and the Sun family are dissatisfied with each other, Zheng Gong's matchmaking has forced them to get mixed up because of their interests. What we have to do now is to break For this kind of balance, I have already arranged for people to come and invest in the name of the Liangbei Mu family, inserting third-party snobbery, breaking their balance, and when the interests are not balanced, troubles will naturally arise."

"Look here." Li Shengjing showed Xie Yiyan what he had sorted out on the table, "These people have their own little calculations, and when the time comes, they can break through from the inside with a little use."

"What is this?" Xie Yiyan saw an account book, took it over and flipped through it, and found that something was wrong: "Is this Xiaojing's handwriting?"

Li Shengjing wanted to take it back for him, but he didn't thank Yan Yan quickly, so he had to admit: "I wrote it."

"Evidence that Zheng Gong accepted bribes to search for people's fat and people's anointing?" Xie Yiyan looked through it and roughly understood: "Is this... fake?"

"Are you going to use this to convict Zheng Gong?"

Li Shengjing shook his head: "No, to sow discord, you find a chance to put this thing in the Zhou family, and wait for Zheng Gong to find out."

"Will Zheng Gong believe it?" Xie Yiyan didn't quite understand: "If it's really the account of his receipt of stolen money, he should have a rough idea in his heart."

"You also said it, roughly." Li Shengjing explained: "I didn't make this up for nothing, it was based on the results of private investigations in the past few days. Among other things, the funds for repairing bridges, paving roads, maintaining emergency funds are indeed eight. Nine are inseparable from ten, I put these in the front, and he may not be able to flip them later."

Xie Yiyan couldn't help giving a thumbs up: "You're the best, Xiaojing."

"Let's put it aside for emergencies." Li Shengjing said again: "By the way, I have someone prepare some congratulatory gifts, and I plan to send them to Zheng Gong when he gets married. I thought about it, why don't we go together? , when the time comes, you can directly rob the bride and send it to that girl, so you don't have to worry about it."

"You didn't mean to split up and not take me with you." Xie Yiyan said that she was wronged, but the expression on her face was very happy: "Okay, I will go with Ning to snatch a kiss."

"What do you mean by going to snatch a marriage with me?" Li Shengjing couldn't laugh or cry: "Don't talk nonsense, that's how snatching is used? Who are you going to snatch? For whom? Let people hear the joke."

"Who is making fun of me? You always make fun of me." Xie Yiyan came over: "Xiao Jing, tell me, that girl's father was beaten to death, how will their mother and daughter live in the future? Will they not be bullied?"

Li Shengjing also sighed: "It must be difficult, but don't worry about one thing, I have someone who can arrange to be the county guard here, that person is the most upright and honest, he is a rare good person, let him guard Tao It is no problem for the city to take care of these vulnerable and innocent people."

"Who? Xiaojing, you praise him so much?" Xie Yiyan asked subconsciously: "Why didn't I know there was such a person in the capital? Would he be willing to come to this small place to be an official? Would you not rely on it?" Spectrum? Tell me who it is, and I will ask my father to check him, what if he is a flattering guy, and he will coax people with his mouth?"

Li Shengjing raised his eyebrows and looked at him with a smile: "What does this mean? Don't you doubt how I see people?"

"How can I doubt your vision of seeing people? I just want to help you find out if this person is really reliable. Otherwise, why would a Beijing official come to this small place? I think you should be more cautious."

"Oh, it's Mr. Wang, the head of the household department."

Li Shengjing calmly said, "He and his father-in-law should be close friends. It is said that they often drink together, why do we need to check?"

"Uncle Wang." Xie Yiyan said in embarrassment, "No need, Uncle Wang is a good man, very nice, my father has admired him all his life, so many people in court like to have a drink with him, Uncle Wang is about to retire Right? Hey, I remembered, is his hometown right here? Don’t tell me, I don’t have any impression yet. He is suitable. He just happens to be close to his hometown. He just happens to retire and come back to take care of his life without delay. Kill two birds with one stone. . "

"Not bad, not bad, he is indeed a very suitable candidate, Xiaojing, you really have a good vision."

After speaking, he touched his nose, pretending that he didn't think much about it, but with that look in his eyes, he really didn't dare to look at Li Shengjing again, because he always felt a little ashamed.

Li Shengjing stretched out his hand and shook his arm, tilted his head and chased after him and asked, "Otherwise, who do you think I'm talking about? Is it Mr. Feng, the champion of the new discipline? He is indeed handsome, but he is married, and he is from the Ministry of Industry." That Mr. Wu who is called Saipanan? He is not married, but it is said that there is a childhood sweetheart in his hometown who plans to take him to Beijing in two years, or..."

"Xiao Jing, you can't do this. How do you understand it so clearly? You even know that there are childhood sweethearts in the family, and why do you remember these few people?" A certain person was still embarrassed, but now he became sour: "These are the only few people in the DPRK and China. You remember them all so clearly. Have you investigated their family backgrounds?"

"Naturally." Li Sheng nodded: "These people are all rising stars of the new generation, and they are all my confidantes who have been single-handedly picked up. If I want to use them, I must investigate clearly. If I don't know, how can I entrust them with important tasks? "

"Zian, don't you want to eat dumplings today?"

"what?"

"Dipping dumplings in vinegar tastes delicious."

The author has something to say: Xie Yiyan: Let me see who Xiaojing praised today?Is it Zhuangyuan Lang or Sai Panan, oh Uncle Wang, it’s all right
