God-level Consort of the Tang Dynasty

Chapter 72 Ransom
A breeze blows.

Birds sing on the branches.

Days like this can't help but make people feel comfortable.

Du He stood up, rubbed his numb legs, and said with emotion: "A day like this would not be changed by a god."

As soon as the words fell, Lu Bu suddenly jumped from the wall and arrived in front of Du He.

Du He was a little surprised and said: "With your ability, if you sign up for the sports meeting, you will definitely be the champion of the high jump group!"

Lu Bu was in a daze, he had no idea about the high jump in the sports meeting.

He clasped his fists and said, "Master, there are troublemakers outside again, and the housekeeper is negotiating with them, do you want me to take action and break their legs and throw them all out?"

This guy has always been rough.

Du He asked curiously: "Who is here? Could it be that those scholars are making trouble again?"

Lu Bu shook his head: "It's not those scholars, it's an old man who claims to be the secretary and junior supervisor, his name is Yan Shigu."

"Oh, it seems that this old man is here to find his grandson. Let's go and meet him. Don't yell and kill him all day long. We are civilized people, so we can convince people with reason, understand?" Du He educated earnestly road.

Lu Bu thought for a while, then shook his head: "I still don't understand!"

Du He: "..."

The elm head can't be said!

When Du He came to the gate of Lai Guogong's mansion, Yan Shigu and Deng Chaoping were about to force their way in.

It turned out that the old housekeeper knew that Yan Wentian, the grandson of Yan Shigu, was working in the furniture factory, and he was worried about causing trouble, so he blocked him from entering.As for Yan Shigu, he was really worried about his grandson's safety, so he wanted to break in.

Seeing this, Du He stepped forward, stretched out his hand, and said, "Master Yan, you are an official of the imperial court after all, you are also a person of face, and you are even a famous master of Confucianism. Before, it seems that it is not in accordance with the etiquette to break in at random, right?"

Master Yan blushed, turned around and said to Du He: "Young Master Du, tell me, is my little grandson Wen Tian in your residence?"

Du He nodded: "That's right, Yan Wentian is in my residence."

"Mr. Du," Yan Shigu's anxious mood finally eased, as if a huge stone fell to the ground in his heart, "So, I can rest assured. I have heard about this matter. My grandson is still young. I don't know how to advance or retreat, and if you have offended Mr. Du, please be magnanimous and let him go. Wen Tian is weak and sick, if you lock him up like this, something may happen..."

Hearing this, Du He couldn't laugh or cry: "Master Yan, my Laiguo Mansion is not a prison, and I have no right to detain your grandson. Yan Wentian is very healthy now. If you want to see him, please come with me."

"So, thank you very much." Yan Shigu glanced at Du He and said in surprise.

There are rumors in Chang'an City that Du He is now a major evil in Chang'an City, directly surpassing Chang Sun Chong and other three evils in Chang'an.

But seeing it with his own eyes, Yan Shigu discovered that Du He was not a rude and rude person, on the contrary, he had a well-founded advance and retreat, and was polite and restrained.

As he said that, Du He brought it forward, and both Yan Shigu and Deng Chaoping walked in.

Old Fu hurriedly ran to the front, leaned into Du He's ear, and whispered, "Young master, if Mr. Yan knows that his little grandson works in a furniture factory, you can't turn against us!"

Du He waved his hand: "It's okay, we didn't do anything illegal, so why feel guilty."

After a while, everyone came to the furniture factory.

As soon as you walk into the gate of the furniture factory, you will see a busy scene in front of you.

The people here even walk several times faster than ordinary people.

Various sounds of processing wood came from various rooms, as well as the sound of clanging and knocking.

Yan Shigu had known for a long time that Du He opened a furniture factory, but this was the first time he had seen him.

This is very different from the craftsman's shop in his impression. The biggest feeling is that the pace here is much faster and more lively.

At this moment, Yan Shigu suddenly found a familiar figure from the back in the corner of the yard.

Isn't that short figure his own grandson Yan Wentian?
From a distance, Yan Shigu saw Yan Wentian holding the back of two revolving wooden chairs in his hands, walking quickly towards a room with small steps, his tender white face was covered with sweat, and his steps faltered a bit, as if he was about to Like falling down.

"Ouch, my precious grandson..."

Yan Shigu yelled in distress, and hurried forward.

As soon as Yan Shigu went up, he snatched the two wooden chair backrests from Yan Wentian's hand, and found that these two things were very heavy, even adults would have trouble picking them up, but his precious grandson actually held two pieces at a time.

Yan Wentian was stunned when he saw Yan Shigu.

"Grandpa, why are you here?" Yan Wentian asked curiously.

Yan Shigu took out his handkerchief to wipe off the sweat and sawdust on his grandson's face with pity, and said distressedly: "Grandpa came to take you home, you said you didn't study hard, and you have to follow those reckless scholars to deal with Du He, isn't this asking for trouble? Did Du He force you to do this? It's too much."

Saying that, Yan Shigu led Yan Wentian to Du He, and said with displeasure: "Du He, although my grandson is wrong, don't you feel guilty for bullying a child like this?"

Seeing that Yan Shigu wanted to ask the teacher to ask the crime, Du He turned his head and ordered: "Old Master, tell him what's going on!"

The old Fu briefly talked about his love for Du He's rescue of Yan Wentian, and focused on the fact that Yan Wentian owed Du He 500 Wen.

Even if Yan Wentian earns 10 Wen today, he still owes 490 Wen.

After hearing this, Yan Shigu said angrily: "What kind of medicine can be worth 500 Wen, this is the first time I've heard of it."

Du He said with a smile: "You haven't heard of it, it doesn't mean you don't have it. After taking my medicine, the headache for many years has been cured. If Lord Yan doesn't believe it, you can go to His Majesty to verify it."

Yan Wentian was taken aback.

He heard that the empress suffered from headaches for several years, and even the medicine king Sun Simiao couldn't do anything about it. Later, a fairy medicine offered by Du He was cured.

This matter must be true.

But he is not sure about the truth about his grandson Yan Wentian.

But now there is no way, he is in the furniture factory, he guessed that with Du He's temper, if he doesn't give an explanation today, he probably won't be able to take him away.

So Yan Shigu asked: "Du He, how can you release him?"

Du He smiled slightly, stretched out his hand, and made a movement of counting money that no one could understand: "It's very simple, pay the money and let him go."

Although Yan Shigu was unwilling, he had to bow his head under the eaves. Although he was a secretary and a young supervisor, he lacked support in the court. Coupled with his own personality, he didn't want to make things big.

"Okay, I'll send someone to send the ransom to the mansion later. It's 500 Wen, not a penny less." Yan Shigu said helplessly.

Although the 500 Wen was not much, it represented Yan Shigu's resignation to Du He.

Then, Yan Shigu took Yan Wentian, followed Deng Chaoping, and quickly left the furniture factory.
