Chapter 241 The Return
The scholar looked at Zhang Yi again, and said, "What else do you want?"

"That's easy to say," Zhang Yi said with a smile, "I offended the little prince today, and I feel terrified, so I still want a boat. But in order to prevent people from the palace from assassinating me, I have to carry it with me until I leave Yaojiang. , how about giving the painting to your people?"

The scholar agreed without thinking: "Yes."

Zhang Ye's gaze towards Zhang Yi became colder and colder, but the scholar beside him quietly blocked his way, blocking the sight of the two of them.

Zhang Yi withdrew his provocative smile, and looked at the scholar who could really call the shots: "It's a long night and dreams, so let's start now?"

The scholar still said: "Yes. Let's book the boat for you?"

"That's not necessary, just ask someone to go back home and prepare 1 taels of silver." Zhang Yi replied straightforwardly, "Let's meet at the pier?"

The scholar nodded: "See you at the pier."

Zhang Yi held the painting scroll in one hand and the bundle he had packed earlier in the other, and walked out of the inn with strides. Just outside the door, he seemed to remember something and said, "Young Lord, by the way, help me settle the bill."

Zhang Ye didn't answer. He stared coldly at his leaving back, then turned to look at the scholar, "Just let him go like this? What if he ran away with the painting?"

The scholar said: "No. Little prince, let's go back to the mansion to pay the money first?"

Zhang Ye looked at him indifferently, and instead of answering, asked him, "I won't give him a penny!"

The scholar sighed, as if he didn't expect him to be so determined, and he didn't care about outsiders on the court at the moment, so he asked him helplessly: "Then what do you plan to do?"

Zhang Ye said: "This person is really good at talking, but I don't believe that he can still be stubborn in the face of swords! Not only will I not give him a penny, but he will give me the painting willingly! "

"But have you ever thought about it, if he destroys the painting in a fit of anger, how will we explain to the prince?" The scholar's eyes were full of disapproval, "You may think that he just took the initiative, and we have already done it again It's too late, now we can send people to go to the pier to ambush in advance, and catch the turtle in a urn."

"However, since the painting is in his hands, we will always be restrained by him. Because he can give it a go, but we can't."

Zhang Ye's anger was gradually calmed down by what he said. He swallowed and said angrily, "Then today we can only smash our teeth and swallow it?"

The scholar whispered to him, and finally said: "After getting the painting, people will be fish and meat, and I will be the knife. At that time, whether he cuts or kills, it is naturally up to the young prince to decide."

Zhang Ye finally felt better. Even the condensation on his brows melted away, and he regained his gentle and refined manner that made people feel like a spring breeze.He bowed to the scholar, and said: "No wonder my father, Mr. Wang Xinzhong, Mr. is indeed unparalleled in resourcefulness."

The scholar turned sideways, not daring to accept his gift.

Over there, when Zhang Yi arrived at the pier, he found the boatman that had been agreed in advance.

This is what the girl told him when he was in Kyoto. At first he thought it was troublesome, but it was just a trick. Is it necessary to be so cautious?Now in Xin'an County, Zhang Yi realized that it was really necessary after seeing the young prince's domineering behavior.

……

Yunzhuo made an appointment with Wanniang today, at the Lanshilou.

Wanniang went first, and when she saw Yun Zhuo coming, she took out the purse from her bosom and put it on the table.

Yun Zhuo sat down in front of her, saw the purse on the table, pouted: "What?"

Wanniang pushed in her direction: "Don't you know if you open it?"

Even though Yun Zhuo was not interested, he was aroused by his words.She reached out to pick up the purse and opened it, originally wanting to see what was inside, making it so mysterious, but when she saw it for the first time, she understood it.

She put the purse back and said, "You should keep these, everyone has worked hard."

But Wanniang refused to accept it: "It's not hard work, the girls in the workshop feel that this kind of life can be regarded as hopeful."

After she said this, Yunzhuo had to take the purse over. She counted the banknotes in front of Wanniang, and took out ten 50 tael banknotes and handed them to Wanniang: "There will be more money in the future." it is good."

"What are you doing?"

"Take it, Tianyuqiao Yuxiao and the others are bothering you in Ruyifang these days." Yun Zhuo frightened her with a cold face, "Could it be that you don't even listen to my boss now?"

Wanniang laughed, and finally took the bank note in her hand.

Yun Zhuo asked her again: "How did Yuqiao, Yuxiao, and Yusheng behave in Ruyifang? Didn't they cause any trouble?"

What she said was actually just asking casually, and she didn't think about what trouble they could really cause.After all, she had already seen in Zhuangzi that these people were all safe.Even if he was a little careful, he probably wouldn't make a big mistake.

Unexpectedly, Wanniang's pretty face showed a look of embarrassment. Under Yun Zhuo's gaze, she finally answered truthfully: "Yuqiao and Fangru, for some reason, have a lot of suspicions. Recently, I see that Fangru is faint. There were intentions against her, but Yuqiao did not accept it; there was nothing wrong with Yuxiao, but she was too aggressive, but after learning the rules of the world, she had already robbed several girls of her guests, causing everyone to mention her. Criticism; as for Yusheng, he is honest. In the past few days in the workshop, he has always done his own thing dutifully, and has not caused any trouble. But the boss...you should get him away quickly!"

"Oh?" Yun Zhuo didn't expect Wanniang to let her take Yusheng away.

"In the past few days, many girls in the workshop and even the maids below have shown favor to him frequently, and he has kept himself clean, but I have never seen so many people with sad faces in Ruyi Workshop, let alone heard so many sighs. It's really unlucky." Wanniang said helplessly.

When she said this, Yun Zhuo remembered Yu Sheng's appearance, which she had almost forgotten.

The dull eyebrows and delicate temperament, like a stalk of green bamboo after the rain, are indeed a bit eye-catching in the romantic field of sensuality.

"Okay, I get it. Wait a few days, and I'll let him go in a few days." Yun Zhuo thought in his heart that Hongxiu should be back in a few days.

Speaking of this, she asked Wanniang again: "I asked you to find an artist to draw pictures of the people who go in and out every day, did you follow my instructions?"

"Yes, but I don't have time to go out today. If you want to see it, why don't you come back to Ruyifang with me?" Wanniang said again.

Yun Zhuo shook his head: "Not today, let's do it another day."

The two were talking, when Qiu Xing, who was waiting outside, knocked on the door and came in, and said to Yun Zhuo, "Miss, sister Hongxiu just sent a letter, and they are back."
