Chapter 247

Shang Jingchuan didn't sit down, but saluted Yan Sifu very solemnly.

"Master Fumu, may I ask why you are calling for a humble job?"

Hearing this address, the expression on Yan Sifu's face suddenly became very subtle.

He is indeed Jingzhao Mansion Mu, that is, Shang Jingchuan's immediate boss.

But no one ever called him that, they always called him Qi Wang Qiansui.

Now that Shang Jingchuan called him that, he was clearly reminding himself intentionally, and was also drawing a clear line with himself.

However, the strangeness on Yan Sifu's face was only fleeting, and he smiled and said, "Today there is no Jingzhao mansion shepherd, let alone King Qi, let's just chat casually, don't be so reserved."

After Yan Sifu said that, Shang Jingchuan had no choice but to sit down.

To be honest, after receiving Yan Sifu's invitation, Shang Jingchuan was full of resistance.

But helplessly, Yan Sifu was his immediate superior, he sent out invitations, and Shang Jingchuan had no choice but to obey.

At this moment, Shang Jingchuan only wanted to end this embarrassing meeting as soon as possible.

At this time, a servant brought tea, Yan Sifu chatted with Shang Jingchuan while drinking tea.

Shang Jingchuan dealt with it patiently.

But after drinking a full pot of tea, Shang Jingchuan saw that Yan Sifu still didn't have the slightest intention to talk about business, so he finally couldn't help it.

"Master Fu Mu, may I ask why you called Beizhi over here? If there is nothing else, please allow Beizhi to resign, because there are still many things waiting for me to deal with in Jingzhao Mansion."

"Hahahaha Jingchuan is really impatient. In fact, it's okay to invite you here. I just want to ask you if you still get used to it after taking office. You can ask me for any needs. I also hold the post of Jingzhao Mansion Shepherd anyway. , this problem can still be solved for you." Yan Sifu said with a pleasant smile.

Shang Jingchuan shook his head, "Thank you, Lord Fu Mu, for your concern, but I'm not used to anything, and I don't have any needs."

"How can there be no demand? I heard that you brought people to bring Changpingfang two days ago, and you must have lost a lot of subordinates. In this way, I will allocate a separate sum of money to you as a reward, how about it?"

Hearing these words, Shang Jingchuan had only one reaction.

That means there are ghosts in it.

First of all, it is a little abnormal for him to take the initiative to bring up the matter of Changpingfang. Secondly, he should know that Zhao Ya did the thorough investigation of Changpingfang in Jingzhao Mansion. What about loss?
So these words obviously have other meanings.

Shang Jingchuan took a deep breath, "Master Fu Mu, you don't need to reward, my subordinates themselves didn't suffer much loss."

"Hey, no loss now doesn't mean there won't be any loss in the future, are you prepared, and this amount of money is not a small amount!"

Saying that, Yan Sifu winked at his subordinates, and immediately someone walked in with a tray, on which was a thick stack of gold tickets.

"This is a 5 taels of gold ticket. It can be exchanged at any time. There is absolutely no secret mark. It can be used even in neighboring countries. It is extremely safe." Yan Sifu smiled.

Shang Jingchuan finally understood.

This so-called reward is simply a bribe for oneself.

He took a deep look at Yan Sifu, "Is this what you mean, Mr. Fu Mu, or..."

"Sure enough, he is a smart person. Of course, there is a little bit of my meaning in this, but the big heads are sent by various aristocratic families. As long as you are willing to nod, there will be a generous dividend for you every year in the future."

As he said, the money was indeed provided by the rich and powerful families, and the purpose was naturally to silence Shang Jingchuan and win him into the same camp.

And Yan Sifu, as the highest official of the Jingzhao Mansion in name, and Shang Jingchuan's immediate boss, it is natural to do this matter perfectly.

And Yan Sifu didn't think there was any difficulty in this matter, so he agreed.

At this moment, Yan Sifu stared at Shang Jingchuan, waiting for his statement.

In his opinion, Shang Jingchuan would definitely agree if he was not a fool.

After all, on the one hand, there are countless riches and honors, and on the other hand, they are enemies of the rich and powerful of the Manchu Dynasty.

Which is lighter and which is more important, you can tell at a glance.

But when he was confidently waiting for Shang Jingchuan to nod.

An unexpected scene happened.

Shang Jingchuan glanced at the golden ticket on the tray, then stood up slowly.

"Lord Fu Mu, although I, Shang Jingchuan, have no skills, I have read the books of sages since I was a child, so I still have some courtesy, righteousness and shame, so please forgive me for not being able to accept this money."

Yan Sifu was stunned, and then made another sentence.

"If you think it's too little, the money is actually negotiable..."

"It's not a matter of more or less money, but a matter of principle." Shang Jingchuan had a clear attitude and categorically refused.

Now Yan Sifu couldn't hold it anymore, looked at Shang Jingchuan with a gloomy expression, and said with a smirk: "Principle?"

"Yes."

Shang Jingchuan took a deep breath, cupped his hands and said.

"Master Fu Mu, I know what the people who sent the money think, please tell them, I will never accept the money, if they have done evil things before, it is best to stop here, then there is still time to look back Otherwise, my Jingzhao Mansion will never look at anyone's favor."

"Humble job still has a lot of things to do, so I'm leaving."

After finishing speaking, Shang Jingchuan turned around and left.

At this moment, Yan Sifu's gloomy voice came from behind.

"Shang Jingchuan, do you really think that with that person surnamed Zhao as your reliance, you can have nothing to worry about?"

Shang Jingchuan stopped in his tracks, turned his head to look at Yan Sifu, "Master Fu Mu is wrong, I am not relying on Zhao Ya."

"Oh? Who is that?"

"It's King Yan's law, which is fair to people's hearts." Shang Jingchuan said in a deep voice.

Yan Sifu was stunned by what he said, and when he came back to his senses, Shang Jingchuan had already left.

Then he jumped up from the chair like a cat whose tail was trampled.

"Shang Jingchuan, just wait, sooner or later I will make you regret what you said today."

In his opinion, the so-called Great Yan King's law, which is fair to people's hearts, is completely farting. It is purely an excuse Shang Jingchuan made to prevaricate himself.

Who doesn't live for money and power these days, who the hell would care about these vain things.

Especially in Yan Sifu's view, this Shang Jingchuan is just an old dog with little use value.

Now that he dares to talk to himself like this, this is not a slap in the face.

Yan Sifu was so angry that he dropped more than a dozen tea sets, and finally he calmed down a little.

"Zhao Ya, everything happened because of you, just wait, I will find a way to kill you."

Yan Sifu thought that Shang Jingchuan dared to be so arrogant mainly because Zhao Ya was behind him to support him.

So as long as Zhao Ya is killed, all problems will be solved.

Thinking of this, he immediately called his son Yan Peng, and the first sentence he said was straight to the point.

"Hire a few killers with a lot of money in the Jianghu."

"What are you going to do?" Yan Peng asked without knowing why.

"I'm going to kill this Zhao Ya." Yan Sifu gritted his teeth.

Yan Peng couldn't laugh or cry when he heard that, let's not talk about whether this matter is reliable or not, even if Yan Sifu wanted to spend money to hire a killer, no one would dare to accept the order.

After all, it was a genuine Five Realm, and it had a record against the sky.

Which killer is so overwhelmed that he would go to such a character to die?

So he sighed and said: "Father, you should rest easy, you dare to send out this assassination order, but no one will dare to accept it."

"Why? Are there any problems in this world that money can't solve?" Yan Sifu asked puzzled.

Yanpeng knew that his father had lived in the temple for a long time, but he didn't know what was going on in the world.

In his opinion, although warriors are powerful, they must have their limits, so as long as they have enough money, there is nothing they cannot do.

But he had no idea what a genius like Zhao Ya meant.

"Father, this Zhao Ya is so powerful that even Senior Sister Yan admits that he is no match for him. Do you think there is any killer in Jianghu who can kill him?"

"What? Yan Xizhao is not his opponent either?" Yan Sifu finally had a more intuitive feeling about Zhao Ya's strength.

"Yes, she said it herself."

"Then...the suzerain or elder of the three sects, two courtyards and one villa can do it, so it won't be impossible for no one to restrain him in the huge Yandu City." Yan Sifu said after hesitating for a moment.

"The major suzerains should be able to do so, but do you think such a person would easily make a move? As for the other elders... I really dare not say." Yan Peng said.

He might have been a little dissatisfied with Zhao Ya's strength before.

But after a few days of understanding, Yan Peng finally understood that such a genius cannot be judged by common sense.

Yan Sifu finally withered.

Seeing this, Yan Peng couldn't help persuading: "Father, I know you don't like Zhao Ya and this Shang Jingchuan, but I advise you better not to interfere in this matter, after all, didn't you say before that he The governor of Jingzhao has done a good job, and you also have a share of credit."

Yan Sifu finally changed his mentality and sighed.

"Okay, then I'll listen to you, but if I don't make a move, those wealthy families will not let him go."

"That's not your business, are you right?"

"Well, this statement is true, I'll just see how long this Zhao Ya can be arrogant."

Yan Sifu is not a fool.

In fact, how many fools are able to hang out in the court.

Seeing that the previous wooing failed, Yan Sifu immediately changed his strategy and returned the golden tickets to the big families, and also sent the words Shang Jingchuan said.

As for how these aristocratic families will react and how they plan to deal with Shang Jingchuan, that is their business.

Sure enough, when the news spread, Shang Jingchuan's words immediately caused a stir among Dayan's court and wealthy families.

"The law of the Great Yan King is just and fair? How long has it been since I heard these words? This Shang Jingchuan probably treats us all as fools." Someone sneered.

"Damn it, I guess this guy is nothing but too little." Someone frowned.

But there are also a small number of people lost in thought.

Cloud family.

The old head of the family, Yun Jixiu, half-lyed on the chair and closed his eyes to doze off.

As the mainstay of the court back then, the last prime minister of the Yun family, he is now very old.

Since he retired and returned home, he has added a new problem, that is, he likes to sleep.

He can sleep more than half of the time every day.

For example, now, not long after breakfast, he leaned back on the chair and fell asleep again.

Seeing this, Yun Yizhi, who entered the room to say hello, was about to tiptoe out.

At this moment, Yun Jixiu closed his eyes and said, "Stop."

Yun Yizhi stopped immediately, and shouted respectfully: "Father, you are not asleep."

"Of course I wasn't asleep."

Speaking of this, Yun Jixiu opened his eyes, and a gleam of light flashed in those old-fashioned eyes.

"Have you heard about the outside world?" Yun Jixiu said indifferently.

"heard."

"What do you think?"

"It's amazing." Yun Yizhi replied honestly.

This is also the real thought in his heart.

"I heard... Yuan'er met this Zhao Ya."

"Well, there is such a thing."

Yun Yizhi was not surprised that his father knew even such a trivial matter.

Don't look at Yun Jixiu as old and out of shape, but in fact he is very clear-headed. Basically, the big and small things that happen in the family can't escape his eyes, it's just a matter of whether he wants to take care of it or not.

"Let Yuan'er establish a good relationship with Zhao Ya, and... if there is a chance, I would like to meet this Shang Jingchuan."

"I'll do my best to arrange it."

"Don't worry, don't force it, if you can't, forget it, understand?"

"Yes!"

Yun Yizhi withdrew, did not dare to stay, and went directly to Yunyuan, and told him what the old man had said.

Yun Yuan smiled wryly, "How can I not know how to maintain a good relationship with Zhao Ya, but the key is that since the funeral was over and I took charge of the third room, I haven't seen him again."

"Then you should try your best to get close to him, because this person is very important, even related to your future status, understand?" Yun Yizhi asked.

"let me try!"

Yun Yizhi left.

But as soon as he left, Yun Jin jumped out on the back, and said with a smile, "Brother, since my father said so, why don't we go find Zhao Ya."

"After all, he helped you so much back then, so you have to thank him in person."

Maybe it was the last sentence that moved Yun Yuan.

He nodded, "Okay, then I'll pay a visit."

Naturally, he couldn't go empty-handed when he visited. Fortunately, Yunyuan hadn't stopped searching for jerky during this time.

Heijiao jerky has accumulated a large box full.

Just in the name of sending jerky to see Zhao Ya.

Yun Yuan took the dried meat and led Yun Jin to Xiaojing Hutong in Guangdefang.

But when they knocked on the door, they found that Zhao Ya was not at home.

After explaining the purpose of coming, Zui'er smiled and said: "Oh, you are looking for my brother Xiaoya. He has been busy in Jingzhao Mansion for a while and hasn't come back for two or three days. If you want to find him, go to Jingzhao Mansion." house."

Yun Yuan was a little helpless when he heard that.

Now there are at least [-] people who are blocking the gate of Jingzhao Mansion and want to see him. I don't know when I will see Zhao Ya.

He had no choice but to leave the jerky, and then left.

At the same time, Zhao Ya is leading the people of Jingzhao Mansion to shuttle through the city of Yandu, specially arresting those who do evil and evil.

Most of the people held their hands obediently, only a small number of people thought they had good strength and planned to resist, but Zhao Ya sent them to meet the King of Hades.

Under such forceful means, even those aristocratic and wealthy families who were usually arrogant and domineering and took pleasure in oppressing the common people have restrained a lot at this time, and no longer dare to show off.

For a time, the law and order in the entire Yandu City was completely changed.
