Royal Master Painter

Chapter 261 Xiao Bingji

Jiang Greed always wondered if this beggar was trying to trick him. The road became narrower and narrower without even a lantern. beggars.

Jiang Lun didn't know what he stepped on, slipped his foot, and heard a chirping sound. Jiang Lun took a closer look and found that it was a mouse the size of a palm.

In this dirty and messy place, there are the most rats, even jumping around on those sleeping people.

“The Rat House is ahead”

I heard those people in the inn say that many dignitaries would come to the Shulou to buy news. I thought the Shulou should be magnificent, but I didn't expect it to be so dilapidated.

The beggar took him to a dilapidated house and left quietly. Jiang Li opened the door, and the smell of decay and dilapidation came over his face, and a large group of rats huddled together in the corner.

"Is this the Mouse House?"

Jiang Greed was a little unsure whether he had been deceived, or whether the Mouse Tower was a place where rats gathered.

"Painter Jiang, this is the Mouse Tower!"

In the dilapidated house, a young man in black walked out slowly, his face was sickly pale, and he would cough every two steps.

"Xiao Bingji in Xiashulou"

"How do you know my surname is Jiang?"

Jiang Greed was a little strange, he didn't reveal his name to anyone along the way.

"Our Shulou is in the business of information, if even Master Jiang doesn't know, it's not a good sign for us."

Xiao Bingji clapped his hands, a mouse emerged from the ground, and the black mouse jumped into his hands with all his strength.

The mouse still held a bamboo tube in its mouth, Xiao Bingji took off the bamboo tube, opened it and poured out a roll of paper.

"Jiang Li, male, 22 years old, grew up in Nanping Town, Yunzhou, an orphan of Tianshe Mansion, a student of the Wen Mansion, and Ehuhui won the first place in the Eight Mansions. He is good at Danqingshu, Jiamen Method, Jiazi Divine Mantra, In the land of Yique, he was forged by the black dragon, and his cultivation at the Xuanling Realm is better than that of the Sunshine Realm, and he is suspected to be the owner of a special enlightenment!"

Jiang Li's heart skipped a beat. He has always appeared in front of everyone as a painter, and has never revealed his identity as a paint maker in front of others. Even though he tried his best to conceal it, he was still noticed by Shulou.

This is not over yet, Xiao Bingji took out the second volume as he spoke.

"Here is another volume that records the past of Master Jiang, do you need me to read it to you?"

"No need, I hope I won't make this trip in vain"

"There is no doubt about the reputation and ability of Shulou, Painter Jiang, I think Painter Jiang came here for the group of exiles who will be killed three days later," Xiao Bingji asked.

"good"

"From now on, one question is 2 taels. The value of Jiang's paintings has doubled in Qingdu. I think Jiang should be able to afford this price," Xiao Bingji said with a smile.

"What's the current situation of this group of migrants in Serbia? How many people are there?"

"That's two questions"

Xiao Bingji saw Jiang Li put the 4 taels of silver notes on the ground, and soon a big black rat flashed out and took the silver notes into Xiao Bingji's hands.

"Because of the Jiazi Gengxin Rebellion, the emperor moved the Hu people in Saishang to the vicinity of Daxuan City. Most of the Hu people in Saishang were mainly Qiang and Di people. These people are skilled in bows and horses, good at hunting, and have a strong temperament. They are natural warriors. , although the emperor allocated some fields, but they do not work in the fields, they would rather be refugees, and often make a living by robbing business travelers.

When these people first moved, there were nearly 11 people in 20 households, but now only about half of them are left in just [-] years.

At the beginning, the emperor also wanted to recruit these people again, but the Qiang people and the Di people recognized death, and only recognized Jiang Boluan and Jiang Fengwu, the old commanders of Tianshe Mansion.

Therefore, even though it has been many years, many of these people are still thinking about the restoration of Tianshe Mansion."

"Is there any way to save the group of people who will be executed three days later?"

A question is 2 taels, which is much more valuable than selling his paintings. After understanding the general situation, Jiang Li didn't talk nonsense and went straight to the point.

"This matter happened because of Lord Kang, if you can find Lord Kang and ask him to forgive, these people may be able to survive.

Prince Kang is an idle prince who usually specializes in eating, drinking and having fun. He is also lustful. When he was young, he traveled around Qingdu. He was almost obsessed with the pursuit of handsome boys. If you can find one or two and send them to his house, this matter may be eased. .

But you'd better not come forward, after all, people from the royal family have only one thought when they see the people from Tianshe Mansion, and that is to strip you alive."

Jiang Boluan and Jiang Fengwu almost wiped out the royal family, and Jiang Greed's appearance will only intensify the conflict.

What's more, there are only three days, where he can find a handsome young man, Li Youlang is fine, but he is afraid that Li Youlang's temper will come up and send the prince away.

"Is there no other way?"

"Indeed, there is. The second method is ransom. According to the Daxuan Tai Shi Law, the prisoner can regain his freedom by paying the same amount of ransom according to the crime he committed. I have already done the calculation for you. These 100 people, That's one hundred thousand gold!"

"One hundred thousand gold!"

Jiang Li was a little surprised. One hundred thousand gold was one million taels of silver. He had only saved so much after being a painter for so many years, which was equivalent to emptying out all his savings.

"Is one hundred thousand gold guaranteed to be redeemed?"

What Jiang Greed fears the most is that the money is wasted, the work is not done, and in the end, there is nowhere to cry.

"It also depends on who you send to help. All the prisoners in the Xuan Kingdom are managed by the Prison Yamen. This is the most terrifying Yamen in the world. If you don't pay attention, there will be no bones left.

If you find the wrong person, not only will no one be rescued, but you will also get into trouble. "

"Then who should I call?"

"There is a tiger, an eagle, and a dog in the prison office. The warden of the prison office, Chen Chen, is known as the Tiger of Daxuan. The eagle is Zhang Tang, the head of torture in the prison office, and the dog is the prison office's servant.

These three people are not only ruthless, but all of them are special enlightened and powerful, even the Qianyuan Mirror can't please them in their hands.

If you really want to redeem your sentence, then go to Zhang Tang.

This person came from a family of torturers, and he was good at all kinds of cruel methods of extorting confessions.

But he is equally upright, a staunch supporter of Daxuan Taeshi Law, and redeems what the criminal Taeshi Law allows, you may have a chance to find him."

Xiao Bingji already knew the purpose of Jiang Greed's visit, and he had already prepared a satisfactory answer.

When I met Zhang Tang for the first time, I felt that this person was unusual, but I didn't expect him to be very enlightened.
Jiang Greed took out another 2 taels of silver notes and handed them over to the mice
"The last question, is there a lot of special enlightenment in Daxuan City?"

"The place with the most special enlightenment in the entire Yuling Continent is in Daxuan City, most of them are recruited by the Four Governments and Five Departments, and some live in the world.

It's just that the strength of these people is uneven, and the strong among them are comparable to the top masters of the Eight Palaces.

And here's a piece of news for you, not to mention special enlightenment, now there are three Wushuang enlightenments in Daxuan City! "

"Three!"

Wushuang has been enlightened for thousands of years and it is rare to see one person, but now there are three in Daxuan City, Yan Youqin is naturally one of them, but who are the remaining two?
Jiang Gu remembered that when he left Qingdu, Wei Changli once told him that the water in Daxuan City was very deep and mixed with fish and dragons.
