Chapter 129 The First Big Money!
Of course Shen Yi didn't live in Prince Jin's mansion.

After getting in touch with the inner guard, he understood that since the emperor knew about this matter, there would probably be a follow-up to this matter, and the "address" he left for the inner guard was not the Prince Jin's Mansion, so naturally he would no longer live in it. Jinwangfu.

Therefore, Shen Yi and Xu Fu Dingman lived in that rented courtyard.

Shen Yi planned to return to Prince Jin's Mansion after this matter was over, lest the matter be involved in Prince Jin's Mansion and become more complicated and troublesome.

Shen Yi was not in Prince Jin's mansion, and Shen Zhang didn't know where he went. King Jin Li Rui heard Shen Yi's name for the first time, so naturally he didn't know where Shen Yi went, so he turned his head to look at Gao Ming, and said slowly: "Gao Gonggong, people Since it is not in this palace, this edict...doesn't need to be read in this palace?"

Gao Ming was slightly taken aback for a moment, and then said with a smile: "The inner guard found out earlier that Mr. Shen Yi lives in the prince's mansion. Since Mr. Shen has gone out, our family will let someone find him."

The meaning in Gao Gonggong's words is that the imperial edict must be read in Jinwangfu.

Having said that, Eunuch Gao looked at King Jin, lowered his head and said, "Our family is cheeky, and asked the prince for a cup of tea."

Prince Jin also had to give Gao Ming some face, so he took a deep breath, turned sideways and said, "Please, Eunuch."

Gao Ming nodded, then turned his head to look at Shen Zhang who was stunned, and said with a smile: "Brother Shen, let's go in together."

Although Gao Ming is a great eunuch, he is not very old. He is only 36 and seven years old this year, a few years younger than Shen Zhang.

The biggest and most obvious advantage of the profession of eunuch, or the most obvious difference from foreign ministers, is that as long as there is a chance, you don't have to work hard for qualifications and age.

An eunuch like Gao Ming was assigned to accompany the crown prince in the East Palace in his 20s. At that time, the crown prince was young and the late emperor was in the prime of his life. If there were no accidents, he would probably work in the East Palace until he was 50 or even 60 years old. Retired, but people are not as good as heaven, the first emperor died young, and the prince ascended the throne at the age of ten, so Gao Ming became the chief eunuch in the palace in his early 30s.

This is an opportunity that no one else dares to think about.

Hearing Gao Ming's call, Shen Zhang raised his head and glanced at King Jin, who was usually aloof and could not even say a word. Prince Jin was also looking at Shen Zhang at the moment, although he didn't understand that the great eunuch in the palace was here today. What exactly are you going to do, but you still waved your hand and said in a deep voice, "Let's come together."

Just as a few people walked towards the living room of King Jin's Mansion, the inner guard was already on his way to find Shen Yi.

Shen Yi left the address for them, which is not difficult to find, but when the inner guard Qi Dayou and Zhao Ge arrived at the address Shen Yi left for them, Shen Yi was not there, only Xu Fu and Ding Man were there wait.

Qi Dayou knocked on the courtyard door, and after learning that Shen Yi was not there, he frowned deeply, looked at Xu Fu, and said in a deep voice, "Where is Mr. Shen?"

Originally, Shen Yi's whereabouts should be firmly controlled by the inner guard. If Shen Yi escaped under the nose of the inner guard, then both Qi Dayou and Zhao Ge should be held accountable.

After seeing the two "acquaintances" of the inner guards, Xu Fu didn't panic. He imitated Shen Yi's appearance, bowed his hands to the two of them, and said, "You two brothers, my young master has been waiting for you here, but He had something to do this morning, and he was afraid that the two of you would miss the big brother, so he asked us brothers to wait for you here."

Xu Fu bowed his head and said, "I'll take the two of you to find the young master."

Qi Dayou looked at Xu Fu, then turned his head to look at Zhao Ge who was beside him, and said with a smile: "This Mr. Shen is a very particular person."

Zhao Ge said in a muffled voice: "Being particular is about being particular, but being too thoughtful. Yesterday he insisted on not telling us that he lives in Prince Jin's Mansion. If we hadn't checked it out, we would have almost concealed it from him."

Qi Dayou said with a smile: "Young Master Shen has been staying here yesterday, indeed he did not live in Prince Jin's Mansion."

As he said that, he looked at Xu Fu and said, "Okay, little brother Xu, let's lead the way, we have urgent business to find Mr. Shen."

Xu Fu nodded, turned around and told Ding Man a few words, and then led the two inner guards all the way to the direction of Prince Jin's Mansion. When they arrived at the downstairs of a teahouse near the Prince's Mansion, Xu Fu said, "Young Master is in this teahouse. Talk about business."

As he spoke, he led the two inner guards all the way up to the second floor, and saw that the second floor of the teahouse was full of people.

These people were all gathered around a table. On the table, Shen Yi sat opposite a big fat man. The big fat man lowered his head and counted his calculations. After finishing the calculation, he looked up at Shen Yi and said, "Mr. Your price is a total of 57 taels."

Shen Yi smiled and nodded.

"With so many people buying it, it should be a small change, but it's not easy to settle accounts with ten taels of silver, and it's not good to have conflicts later, it's inevitable."

Zhang Delu took a deep breath, and took out two boxes from under the table. After opening, there were fifty taels of silver ingots inside. There were 34 ingots in total, plus one ingot of ten taels of loose silver. The fat Zhang Yuanwai looked at Shen Yi , bowed his head slightly and said: "Master, take a look, lest you suspect that we are fraudulent, we didn't even exchange the bills, the cash we brought you."

The reason why I put two boxes is because it is too heavy.

More than 700 taels, which is just over a hundred catties, is placed in a wooden box, which is not easy for ordinary people to carry.

Shen Yi didn't talk nonsense, and took out the prepared prescriptions from his arms, a total of seven or eight sheets, handed them to Zhang Delu, and said: "Mr. Zhang, time is tight, and I didn't have time to copy too many copies for you. Take it and let everyone transcribe it by themselves."

As soon as Shen Yi finished speaking, Xu Fu brought two inner guards to the second floor.

Xu Fu passed over 50 people and came to Shen Yi. Seeing the white silver on the table, he swallowed with difficulty, and then whispered in Shen Yi's ear: "My lord, the inner guards are looking for you."

Shen Yi raised his head and saw Qi Dayou and Zhao Ge.

He looked at the two wooden boxes on the table, then closed the wooden boxes, got up and walked towards the two inner guards.

"Brother Qi, Brother Zhao, we meet again."

The two inner guards looked at Shen Yi, and then at the almost crowded people on the second floor of the teahouse, a little surprised: "What is Mr. Shen doing?"

"Talk about the little things."

Shen Yi pointed to the two wooden boxes on the table, and said, "Two big brothers, please help me carry these two boxes down."

"It's not difficult."

Each of the two men carried a suitcase, and picked it up without much effort.

The weight of just over fifty catties is quite easy for the inner guard.

Shen Yi turned his head, cupped his hands at Zhang Delu, and said with a smile, "See you, Mr. Zhang."

As he said that, he took Xu Fu and the two inner guards down to the second floor of the teahouse. After going down the second floor, the four of them left the teahouse and found a secluded place. Only then did Shen Yi heave a long sigh of relief.

He stopped and said to the two inner guards, "Thank you two big brothers. The two big brothers came to me and wanted to take me back to the inner guards?"

"No."

Qi Dayou smiled heartily, and said: "The superior wants us to take Mr. Shen to Jinwang Mansion."

Saying that, Qi Dayou looked up at Prince Jin's Mansion not far away, and said with a smile, "It just so happens, it's nearby."

Shen Yi sighed inwardly.

Although I don't know what exactly happened, but this incident probably has something to do with the Jin Palace.

So he lowered his head and thought for a while, then walked to one of the wooden boxes, opened the wooden box, took out two ingots of 50 taels of silver, handed them in front of the two inner guards, and said, "You two big brothers, I'll just live here." In Prince Jin's mansion, I will go to the mansion by myself, please take my book boy and go to the money shop to save the money."

"This 100 taels is the hard-earned money of the two big brothers."

There was too much money, and there were too many people, so the more than 50 stall owners might not give up. If Xu Fu were to save money alone, there would probably be problems.

Spending 100 taels to hire two inner guards to save money, although a bit extravagant, is already the best way at this time.

The two inner guards all showed surprise on their faces.

As internal guards, they had sharp eyes, and they saw what was in the wooden box on the second floor of the teahouse. They were surprised that Shen Yi, who had only met once, was so relieved of them.

Qi Dayou said with a smile: "With so much money, Mr. Shen is not afraid that my brother will have evil intentions?"

Shen Yi shook his head: "There are only four of us here now, if the two elder brothers really want to have evil intentions, we can do it now, besides, the two elder brothers are the emperor's pro-army, more than 1000 taels of silver, so that the two of you will not ruin your future."

What Shen Yi said was just a scene. In fact, he was not sure whether the two inner guards would steal the money, but now, he had no better choice.

Qi Dayou took a deep look at Shen Yi, then turned his head to look at Zhao Ge who was beside him, and said, "Brother, you accompany Xu Xiaoge to the money shop to save money, and I will take Mr. Shen back to the Prince Jin's mansion for business."

As he spoke, he handed the wooden box in his hand to Zhao Ge, and Zhao Ge carried it with one hand, relaxed and freehand.

This man, carrying a hundred catties of things in both hands, is as light as nothing.

He looked at Qi Dayou, then lowered his head slightly and said: "Okay, after the matter is settled, I will wait for you at the main entrance of Prince Jin's Mansion."

Qi Da nodded, clapped his palms, and looked back at Shen Yi with a smile on his face.

"Master Shen, let's go."
