Chapter 84

Yinhu has been busy for more than ten days. Not only did he find someone again, he closely monitored the Zhenbei Palace, but also found a servant of the Palace to act as an internal response. Unfortunately, this person is illiterate and can only pass on information verbally. It is not particularly important for the sake of concealment. , he stopped contacting here.

But when he came into contact with Yinhu, he said a very strange thing: "A few days ago, the prince ate in the study. It used to be like this, and we are not surprised, but he ate a lot of dishes by himself. Four times, the wine jar in the house was also moved out two days later, and it was empty. The prince takes good care of his health, never drinks too much, and does not exceed three cups at a time. Even if he drinks every day, he still needs two jars of wine. of the month."

"If you encounter such a thing in the future, please tell us in time. If you leave an old broom at the door of your house, someone from us will look for you." Yinhu reminded him.

This news verified that Liang Bingwang received an invisible "guest" that night, and this person was the murderer who killed the hidden pile.

"It's not ruled out that there are two people." Fuyao speculated.

"Impossible, how can there be so many top experts? Coming and going in the capital is like entering the land of no one?" Yinhu shook his head.

In the past two years, Fuyao has also met many people in the world. There are indeed a lot of top experts, and it is even rarer to be driven by the Tartars.

In order to deceive Fang Dewei, Marshal He went to find him that evening: "Where did you go?"

"I'm going to find medicine for you."

"Who provided the medicine? The secret envoy of the imperial court? I will personally ask for an order, so that the secret history can face me directly."

"Marshal, please don't. You know how valuable this medicine is. It was found by a big man in the court specially for you. If you shook it away for the emperor, wouldn't you be hurting him?"

"Okay, tell me who it is, I have to say thank you, right?"

"I don't know, every time someone finds me, they know me, but I don't know them."

"Okay, next time, you ask me, who is doing all this for me? I am polite to others, and I must ask for it. I don't want to accept such a big love from others, but in the end they have something to do." When begging, tell me that I can't do it, I'm not so dishonest."

"Okay, I will definitely forward your words."

"Give me the medicine." Marshal He stretched out his hand.

Fang Dewei was dumbfounded, he thought that Marshal He would still be the same as before, asking him for medicine when he was taking medicine.No, it was he who reminded Marshal He to take the food when the time came.

"You're homeless and jobless. Could it be possible that Marshal He will live the life of a monk like you?" Han Chen reminded unhappily.

Fang Dewei looked suddenly enlightened, and quickly took out the medicine box from his arms. Marshal He opened it, and there were only five pills in it.

"What else? Give it all to me."

"Only these few, it is said that the ship did not come back on time."

"Go out." Marshal He waved his hand, and Fang Dewei went out lazily. He didn't understand why Marshal He made a 180-degree turn as soon as he entered the capital. He used to trust him a lot, but now What kind of ecstasy soup was poured by these little bastards?
Erhu sent the news that someone was doing bad things to Zhang Chengyi, which made Fuyao very strange, because it was a private matter, so she changed her clothes in the evening and went to Yafulou to wait for her brother-in-law.

Now the business of Ya Fu Lou is on the right track, and the income is stable. General Guo gave his share to Fuyao to fund their activities.Although there was an imperial decree from the emperor requiring the Ministry of Households to allocate money on a regular basis, but the officials and lords saw that General Guo had left and Marshal He hadn't returned yet, and when they faced Fuyao, a young man, their expressions immediately changed.General Guo had anticipated this situation a long time ago, and exchanged all the bank notes that had been distributed to him to those issued by the household department with the highest credit in the Yong Dynasty, and handed them back: "You take it first, and I will arrange for the one from the household department. People ask them to settle the general account."

Zhang Chengyi's salary has doubled again. Now he is slightly fatter, and his dark and thin appearance has completely changed. When he goes out, he wears a well-fitting cloth robe made by Yaoqian, very much like a shopkeeper of a business store.

Knowing that Fuyao was waiting, Zhang Chengyi roasted the last duck, took off his apron, washed and changed his clothes, then hurried over, met a man head-on, and grabbed him with his hand: "Can I go home now?"

"Wait a minute, someone is looking for me."

"I'm looking for you, let's go."

Another man came over, and without any further explanation, he pulled him away.

There were bodyguards in Ya Fu Lou, and seeing this scene, no one said a word, and Zhang Chengyi didn't call for help. Seeing this scene, Fuyao felt very strange, so he hung around from a distance, watching a few men pull Zhang Chengyi Walk into the small yard he rented before.

"Hasn't the lease been canceled there?" Fuyao was very surprised. Seeing them all go in and then close the door, he jumped up the wall and climbed to the ridge to look down.

The weather is already hot, these people have been dragging for a long time, wiping sweat with their sleeves, and now they are all standing in the yard.

"Chengyi, are you from the Zhang family? Do you have a conscience when you make a lot of money yourself but refuse to share it with your brothers?" This is an old man, but he speaks with confidence. He must be under 50 years old.

"Uncle Wu, when you came to the capital, I helped buy rice, buy noodles, rent a house, and spent all my savings. Why do you still say that?"

"Thirteen, I just want to ask you a question, can you teach me how to roast duck?"

"No. You said just now that you have to have a conscience. The ability to roast duck is not from our Zhang family. It is from my father-in-law's family. If it weren't for my brother-in-law who is far away at the border, I wouldn't be able to learn it. I want to teach others, and I will wait for my brother-in-law to come back and teach him."

"Who are you lying to? Your in-law's family has such abilities, and they can still sell their sons and daughters? We know how your daughter-in-law got married. Your mother-in-law brought her brother-in-law and lived in our house."

"Believe it or not, my duck-roasting skill is not passed down in our family anyway. If you insist on saying that I figured it out, don't even think about it. I brought my daughter-in-law to the capital. How can I have the money to buy ducks every day to figure it out? Besides, I don’t know the tricks in it, even if I roast all the ducks in the world, I still can’t practice this skill.”

"Arguing! If you want to argue, I'll kill you, you unworthy descendant!" The old man took off his shoes and jumped to hit Zhang Chengyi. Fuyao almost jumped off the house, but the old man was stopped.

"Fifth Uncle has something to say."

The rest of the people were divided into two groups, one to persuade the old man, and the other to deal with Zhang Chengyi: "Chengyi, look, our family's grain business can't go on any longer. This big family eats it every day, and there is not more than a dozen taels of silver. If you can’t get down, don’t you just watch everyone starve to death?”

"Seventh brother, don't think I don't know. On the first day you came here, the big plate chicken I made as a treat is now a famous dish in the capital. Our family has always been close to General Xiao in Beijiang. Beijing is also the Xiao’s family who defected, and spent money to reorganize the Xiao’s restaurant that was on the verge of bankruptcy, and also launched my big plate chicken and finger meat made by people in the desert of northern Xinjiang. Now the business is very prosperous, and the money earned in a day is more than More than a dozen taels? I really don’t understand, why are you still jealous and coveting other people’s roast ducks!”

"Shut up! Brat, as long as you know as much as you know, say something about General Xiao again, see if I don't peel off your skin." Seeing that the persuasion was ineffective, the old man took off his shoes and jumped over to beat Zhang Chengyi.

"Stop! Uncle Wu, I, Zhang Chengyi, ask myself. I have never done anything to offend my conscience. Don't force me. Speaking of Zhang's family, how to take care of me and my mother plausibly. I used to be grateful. When my mother passed away, I said How did my father die? If he is alive, do I need to eat the public and wear the public? Do I need to see your faces of charity? The patriarch swore back then that he would treat me and my mother well. , Is this how you treat her so kindly now?"

Fuyao couldn't help but want to applaud her brother-in-law. She didn't expect that her brother-in-law, who looks honest, is actually very eloquent, quite sharp, and also very principled in his actions. Just when she was about to jump into the yard, there was another sentence, Made her stop.

"Chengyi, we came here to tell you this out of good intentions. With your ability, how many people are coveting it? Who doesn't want to get you if you open a restaurant in the capital? It's not me, several of them are planning to get you. If you dig it, you will destroy it, none of your apprentices are good at craftsmanship now, and the owner of the Yafulou is too ruthless, they eat meat, at least some soup is left for everyone to drink."

This was a blatant threat. Zhang Chengyi was speechless for a while, and the yard was quiet for a while. Several people stared at Zhang Chengyi to see how he would make a choice.

"Don't think that relying on General Xiao, you dare to do whatever you want. You didn't dare to provoke the owner of Yafulou. What is General Xiao? He is in northern Xinjiang, reselling military rations. This matter will break out one day, and you will also You have to eat and hang up, I advise you, go back to your hometown, farm and do business in peace, don't think about what you have and what you don't have."

"This kid knows too much, I don't think we can keep him."

"Don't think about your boss, he's far away!"

"Yes! Don't be ashamed of your face. Today, we will bury him alive. I will see who can stand up for him." As the man said, he raised the whistle stick in his hand. They came prepared. He planned to kill Zhang Chengyi. Without this person, Jixiangzhuang's business would definitely take a leap forward.

"I'll stand up for him!"

Fuyao said loudly and frightened the people in the yard. When they realized that it was a little girl by the moonlight, they all laughed arrogantly: "It's up to you! If you come a few more, you will die for nothing."

After saying this, several people raised their hands.
