I am the carpenter king

Seeing Emperor Tianqi frowning in thought, and Yuan Keli's face also full of solemnity, he naturally knew what Emperor Tianqi was thinking.Just after entering Shandong, something like this happened here. If we go south again, I don't know what will happen!

Time passed slowly while waiting, Emperor Tianqi and Yuan Keli were not talking, just waiting quietly.

"Your Majesty, the party frugality is back!" Seeing that Emperor Tianqi was resting with his eyes closed, Chen Lin bravely came to Emperor Tianqi's side and whispered.

Opening his eyes suddenly, Emperor Tianqi glanced at Chen Lin, his eyes flashed coldly, and said in a deep voice, "Let him in!"

"Yes, Your Majesty!" Chen Lin replied respectfully, bowed and retreated. [

Dang Han walked in quickly, with a serious face and a chill on his body.

When he saw Dang Han's appearance, Emperor Tianqi was slightly taken aback, there was actually blood on Dang Han's body.Although he had already guessed it in his heart, it was inevitable to be surprised at this time. Emperor Tianqi straightened his body, waiting to be terrified.

Seeing that Dang Han wanted to salute, Emperor Tianqi waved his hand and said with a straight face: "Outside, the salute is unnecessary! Keep everything simple!"

"Yes, Your Majesty!" Although Emperor Tianqi said so, Dang Han still bowed and cupped his fists, and said in a respectful voice.

Nodding slowly, Emperor Tianqi asked directly: "It seems that things are not going well, did you bring them back?"

"Back to the emperor, I brought it back!" Dang Han nodded solemnly, and said: "When I arrived in the west city, I was in a small courtyard in the west city. It didn't take much effort to find him in the house. When I left with my people, I was besieged by more than a dozen people. The attack was fierce, and it could be seen that they were all desperadoes!"

Emperor Tianqi had already thought about murdering people, but he nodded slowly when he heard what Dang Han said, and said, "Is there anyone who attacked you alive?"

"Going back to the emperor, we didn't get caught alive! They saw that things must not be violated, so they all retreated. I was worried that someone would notice our whereabouts, so I took people around a few times and came back, so the time was delayed a little longer!" Dang Han There was a bit of resentment on his face, but he didn't show anything when he spoke.

"I've done a good job. I'll leave the interrogation to you. I'll listen in the inner room." Emperor Tianqi stood up slowly, smiled at Dang Han, and walked in with Yuan Keli and Chen Lin. .

Dang Han naturally understood, he waved to the guards outside, and a person was brought in.At this time, he was wearing coarse clothes, his hands were tied, and his eyes were fierce.After entering the room, he looked around and saw that Dang Han was the only one. He laughed and said, "Brother, thank you! If it weren't for you today, I would have lost my life!"

Looking at this man with a smile, Dang Han moved two chairs, sat down first, and then said to the man, "Sit down and talk! You're tired from standing."

"You'd better untie this rope for me, or you'll be tired from sitting!" The man didn't move, his eyes were fixed on Dang Han, his expression was very cautious.

"You are free! As long as you tell me what I want to know, I will not only explain it to you, but also entertain you with good wine and food. Let's make a deal! As long as you tell me, the conditions are negotiable." The smiling Looking at that person, Dang Han said with a smile.

Frowning slightly, he walked slowly to the chair and sat down, fixed his eyes on Dang Han, and said: "Report the number first, it seems that you don't look like ordinary people, I don't know if you came from the waterway or Come by dry road?"

Smiling calmly, Dang Han cupped his fists at the man, and said: "You don't need to talk about these incisions. I don't like to talk about these incisions here. I can't tell you my identity for the time being, but I can tell you mine. Name. Dang Han, praised by friends in the world, has a nickname of White Clothes Scholar!"

The man was slightly taken aback, then nodded slowly, but his face became more cautious.Looking at Dang Han with piercing eyes, he said in a deep voice, "My name is Lu Jinpeng. I don't have any nickname. I used to be a bandit. Now I've changed my ways and turned to good. I've become a watchdog."

"In this world, it doesn't matter what you do, but living comfortably is the most important thing. You used to be a bandit, it's nothing, if you are not happy, you don't do it. I don't know if being a nursing home is happier. I want to know How much money did Yuanwai give you, and you are so dedicated to working for him!" Looking at Lu Jinpeng with interest, Dang Han had a gentle smile on his face.

"It's not much money, but the head of the family!" Looking up at Dang Han, Lu Jinpeng's eyes were full of disbelief, and the muscles on his face were constantly twitching.Staring at Dang Han, he said in a cold voice, "How do you know?"

"I know a lot of things, so I don't need to worry about how you know. I also know that you killed a man here yesterday. He was a businessman from Yangzhou who smuggled salt. You killed someone on the orders of Lieutenant Lin." Yes, but you don't seem to be very obedient, you should go back and report after killing someone! Why did you run away by yourself? It's not right to do this." Dang Han said with a still calm voice and a smile on his face. [

Lu Jinpeng stared at Dang Han closely, the expression on his face constantly changing. After a long time, Lu Jinpeng sighed deeply.A complicated look flashed across his face, and he said in a deep voice, "As long as you promise me one thing, I'll tell you what you want to know."

"Let's talk! I like straight-forward people. If the conditions are not too high, we will agree to you!" Dang Han was slightly taken aback, then nodded slowly, and the smile just disappeared on his face.

"You guys want to help me rescue a person. His name is Chunlan, and he works as a maid in the Lin Mansion. He is serving the old lady of the Lin Mansion. She is pregnant now, and she can't die!" Lu Jinpeng's eyes were red, and there was a bit of despair in his eyes .

Shaking his head with a wry smile, Dang Han stood up slowly, and said rather helplessly: "It's another clichéd story, you don't want to be a bandit and come to the nursing home, it must be because of this Chunlan, Lin Yuanwai also thinks highly of you. You have done a lot of shameful things for Lin Yuanwai, but this is your last mission, as long as you kill this man, you can take Chunlan far away."

Looking at Dang Han, Lu Jinpeng sighed deeply, and said bitterly, "Help me! As long as I can save Chunlan, I will tell you everything."

"I don't want to lie to you. You also saw the robbery on the way back. Those people came to kill you. You didn't go back after killing someone, which means you knew that going back would mean death, so we can't guarantee that Chunlan is still alive." Dang Han shook his head solemnly and said.

"No, as long as I don't die, Yuanwai Lin won't kill Chunlan. You can go save people without worry, there will be no problem!" Lu Jinpeng's expression was unusually firm, appearing very confident.

Slowly nodding his head, Dang Han smiled and said: "We can help you, but you have to cooperate with us. I will send you to Governor Sun of Shandong Province. As long as you say that Lin Yuanwai ordered you to kill, they will They ransacked Lin Yuanwai's house. Chunlan will naturally be rescued when the time comes. You need to answer me as soon as possible."

Lu Jinpeng pondered for a while, and said, "As long as I can save Chunlan, I'm willing to die, I agree!"

"Okay!" Dang Han stood up, walked slowly to the door of the inner room, and said in a low voice, "My lord, is this okay?"

"Very well, let's do this! Let Li Fang come forward, you all don't come forward, hand this person over to Li Fang, and don't let anyone know of our existence.

Dang Han saluted respectfully, and said: "Yes, young master, I'll do it now!" After speaking, he walked to Lu Jinpeng's side and led him outside.

Gently opening the door of the inner room, Emperor Tianqi and Yuan Keli came out, both of them had faint smiles on their faces.

"This party's frugal work is really good. It is really rare to be capable and resourceful. Master Luo Sigong has put his mind to it, and the people he sent are very capable!" Seeing Dang Han's back, Yuan Keli sighed.

"That's natural. He was the one who took care of the Liaodong affairs. At that time, he was still a thousand households. However, he has been with Luo Sigong for more than ten years, and his confidant is Luo Sigong's right-hand man. If such a person is not effective, then the Jinyiwei You'll really be a dry meal!" Emperor Tianqi said with a sip of tea and a smile on his face.

Seeing that Emperor Tianqi was in a good mood, Yuan Keli tentatively said: "Your Majesty, the affairs of Jining are almost done, can Your Majesty leave now?"

After looking at Yuan Keli for a while, Emperor Tianqi frowned and said with a serious face: "Yuan Aiqing, I don't know why you said that, but things can't be done like this. The case seems simple, but where did the private salt come from? Governor of Shandong Why didn't Sun Yuanhua file a letter? I have to wait until the case is over. Wait for Dang Han to come back later, and ask him to find out the identity of the dead businessman. Compared with other state officials here, I am more interested in that merchant."

Nodding his head slowly, Yuan Keli naturally understood Emperor Tianqi's thoughts, and the matter of private salt was naturally important.But he also has some worries in his heart. The illegal salt business has been repeatedly banned, and there are naturally his reasons for this.This interest group is very large, and the Emperor Tianqi is very likely to be disgraced if he goes like this.

If at that time, if Emperor Tianqi did something irrational, the consequences would be unimaginable!Looking at the confident Emperor Tianqi, Yuan Keli became more and more worried.

After staying in Jining City for three days, Emperor Tianqi obtained information about the businessman, but it was useless.He only said that he was a businessman from Yangzhou, and he didn't know anything else.As for the affairs of Jining Zhizhou and Lin Yuanwai, Emperor Tianqi has nothing to do.Emperor Tianqi was interested in the smuggling of salt in Shandong, but Sun Yuanhua was already doing it.

After leaving Jining, Emperor Apocalypse's ship remembered to head south, stopping and walking along the way.Emperor Tianqi seemed to have forgotten about Jining. A few days later, the group arrived at the destination of the trip, Nanjing!
