Chapter 159

He Ying waited for a while, and seeing that Xue Yunheng was silent, he said again: "The Duke of the county wants me to tell the minister that this matter not only involves court affairs, but also has a sacred heart. No matter what the minister wants to do, he must communicate with the minister. Or Mr. Dalang discuss it, and don't act without authorization."

This is what Xue Hongwen earnestly urged, and when He Ying relayed it, he was a little more solemn.

Xue Yunheng heard the words, but showed an impatient expression on his face, and moved his body down again, and his sitting posture became more and more lazy, as if he was hanging on a chair.

"I know, there's no need for him to tell you." He said lazily, looking at his fingers boredly, and said in a calm voice: "Isn't it just children fighting, grandpa, what about the eldest prince and the second prince, a bunch of trash , Who cares who cares."

His lowered eyes were as cold as ice, but his tone was mocking. He paused for a moment, and said sarcastically: "As long as they don't break up Chen Guo, it's none of my business how they like to fight!"

He Ying looked down at his toes.

Fortunately, Xue Yunheng is the gentleman of the crown family, even if he swears a dirty word, some people will praise him as "Xiaojie", so why not try an ordinary person?Those gentlemen who speak harsh words one by one have already damaged your skin several layers.

The gentry circle in Dadu is the place with the most disputes in the world and loves to be excluded. It is absolutely impossible not to wear two iron sheets on your body. Whoever is caught demoted, you can't be angry if you are demoted, otherwise you will be "not good enough to be a friend".

"Apart from these, is there anything else?" Xue Yunheng asked again, changing his position on the seat, his breath still sluggish.

He Ying concentrated his attention and put away all the messy thoughts in his mind. Fang Chen said in a deep voice: "There is indeed news. Sun Yi sent a letter today, and Zou Chengwei seems to have fled to Beijing."

"What?" Xue Yunheng sat up straight suddenly, his laziness dissipated in an instant, his long and narrow eyes fixed on He Ying, his breath was slightly cold: "Zou Yishou ran out? Didn't Wu Peng stay in Fujie? Why? Didn't he find out?"

"Forgive me, Minister, Wu Peng and others were dismissed by Zou Chengwei with an excuse." He Ying bowed and said in a low tone: "Five days ago, Zou Chengwei, who had been missing for a long time, suddenly sent a message in code words, asking Wu Peng to escort him We left Fujie and made an appointment to meet. When Wu Peng left as promised, Zou Chengwei stole Wu Peng's residence and stole the guide."

Xue Yunheng's expression immediately sank when he heard this, but he didn't speak.

He Ying didn't dare to look up at him, and continued: "As soon as Wu Peng found out that he had been cheated, he immediately chased after the talisman. Zou Chengwei seemed to have hired swordsmen to escort him, and he traveled very fast all the way. This person tricked him into escaping. Yesterday Wu Peng sent news that he was sure that Zou Chengwei had arrived in Shangjing. Now Wu Peng has joined up with Zhuang Suan and the others in Shangjing, and sealed off all the main roads from Shangjing to Dadu. I will never let him escape again."

Xue Yunheng listened silently, with a cold expression on his face: "As soon as this matter is over, immediately recruit Wu Peng back, lower the first-class salary, and no longer entrust any important tasks."

The matter of the talisman festival was extremely important, but Wu Peng couldn't even look down on a little Chengwei. Xue Yunheng's subordinates never used stupid people, so he gave the order at this time.

He Ying held his breath and answered yes, with a cold look on his brows.

They suffered heavy losses in the Fu Festival. Xia Chenghu was a very strategic person, but he died there without thinking about it. However, Zou Chengwei, who Xia Chenghu tried his best to contact, ran away again. Now thinking about it, he is really useless.

A group of guards who are good at martial arts can't even catch a Han clan member who has no strength to restrain a chicken. He, the leader of the guards, is also shameless.

Xue Yunheng said again at this time: "Then Zou Chengwei is a man of loyalty to the emperor. After you go back, send a letter to Zhuang Suan. Don't act recklessly. After you find someone, you must treat him like a guest."

Zou Yishou risked his life to collect important irrefutable evidence, and even got some confessions. If these people can be brought under Xue's family, they will become a great help in the future.

Naturally, with what he had in hand, the matter of the talisman festival would suddenly become clear. Coupled with the evidence they had obtained in the talisman festival, those few big moths would surface sooner or later.

Thinking of this, the worry on Xue Yunheng's face became more and more intense, he stared at the candlestick on the table with frowning eyes, and remained silent for a while.

He Ying waited for a while, seeing that he didn't have any more orders, he bowed again and said: "Minister, Zhuang Suan also sent another message back, saying that something happened in Shangjing, which may be related to Ziwei Doushu .”

"Oh?" Xue Yunheng raised his head, the brilliance in his quiet eyes flashed slightly, and he swept away the melancholy just now: "How do you say that?" He asked, and there was a rare sense of eagerness in his words.

He Ying lowered his voice and said: "At the beginning of February, a new teahouse was opened in Shangjing called 'Yuanlou'. On the day of the opening of the Yuanlou, a notice was posted at the door with the title 'Weizhiyue' and the content was It is said that on February [-]th, a merchant family in Shangjing will give birth to a rare three sons. He also said that the three sons are a sign of good luck. A dead plum tree in his house will suddenly bloom in March this year, the flowers bloom in odd numbers, and the fruit will be in pairs, and it is said that the fruit will be very small, but very sweet, and good things will come after eating."

At this point he paused for a while, then continued: "Since the notice was posted at the beginning of the month, it has caused a sensation. Those who have good things went to the family mentioned in the notice to inquire about it, but the family said It's nonsense, there is no female family member in their family who is pregnant. Because of the damage to their reputation, the family sent people to the Yuanlou to make a fuss, tore up the notice, and even grabbed the shopkeeper and demanded compensation. The shopkeeper By the way, the owner of this teahouse has gone to work outside the city and is not at home for the time being. He will not be back until the end of the month or the beginning of March. This matter has caused a lot of trouble, and the whole capital knows about it.”

Xue Yunheng listened quietly, and at this moment, the corners of his lips slightly curled up with interest: "Interesting, there must be more to come."

"Exactly." He Ying said, with a smile on his face, "On the twelfth day of the second lunar month, there were no troublesome people guarding the door of that family's house, wanting to see what happened, but nothing happened all day long. Everyone said that this building was talking nonsense and destroying people's reputation. Who would have thought that after a few days, the second son of that family who had been doing business for many years suddenly sent a letter back, saying that his wife gave birth to a very The rare three sons were born on February [-]th. The son also said that he would return home with his family after the full moon."

Speaking of this, the smile on He Ying's face became stronger, and he continued: "As soon as the letter was delivered, the head of that family was so happy that he went straight to the Yuanlou, knelt at the door and shouted 'immortal' , and said that his family's heirs are weak, and there are no males in his grandchildren so far. It is a great joy to win three in one fell swoop. Now the people in Shangjing are talking about this matter, and many people are waiting to see Lao Li in that man's family The tree blossoms and bears fruit, and ask for two more plums to taste. The family has invited many people to guard the yard, so as to prevent anyone from stealing the 'Fu Li Guoer' in advance."

He couldn't help but laugh when he said this.
