268 Threat
Liu Lu sighed, "Isn't it for your lord and wife? If they don't reconcile this day, what good fruit can we serve here?"

"My lord and wife?" Chang An frowned puzzledly, "Aren't your lords all back home now?"

"Just go back home?" Liu Lu snorted, "You don't know, my lord doesn't treat my wife like before, just now I scolded my wife in the main room, after my lord left, my wife cried for a while, Aunt Cai and I spent a lot of time persuading it. Didn’t you say that you are in a bad mood?”

Changan suddenly realized, "So it's because of this." Then, he became uneasy again, "This... Didn't this lord treat his wife very well before? Why did he suddenly..."

"What's the sudden? I'm afraid that my lord still has knots in his heart after seeing what happened last time. Alas! This is not something we servants can manage. Forget it, let's all go back and rest!" Liu Lu wrinkled He frowned, waved his hand, and walked out first.

Tao Hong gestured towards Chang An, pushed Chang An out of the small kitchen door, extinguished all the candles, and then went out and locked the kitchen door.After making two gestures to Chang An, he followed Liu Lu and left.

Behind the two of them, Chang An was chewing steamed buns, but his eyes were shining brightly.

Early the next morning, before dawn, Shen Yue went to the Yamen again. This time, he didn't even send someone to speak to Ye Xinyi.

When Ye Xinyi got up, his expression was a little sleepy.Liu Lu and Aunt Cai looked at each other, and Liu Lu helped Ye Xinyi to dress up, and said, "Madam, you made a lot of clothes for the adults when you were in the palace, but you forgot yourself. Today's weather Very good, I heard that the silk and satin shop on Qianmen Street has bought a lot of the latest materials from the south of the Yangtze River, and there is nothing to do while staying in the mansion, so why don't we go to Qianmen Street and relax?"

Ye Xinyi never paid much attention to these matters of food and clothing. When Liu Lu made this suggestion, he was a little apprehensive, afraid that his wife would not agree to it, and he might be reprimanded.Seeing Ye Xinyi frowning, his heart tightened.

Unexpectedly, Ye Xinyi frowned and thought for a moment, but his brows suddenly relaxed, and he even smiled slightly, "Okay! Your lord's salary is usually useless, so let's help him with it." Then With a smile coupled with a gritted expression of silver teeth, both Liu Lu and Aunt Cai felt chills from their lord's neck.

After breakfast, Ye Xinyi really took Liu Lu out of the house, and it was Chang'an who was driving.

In the midst of spring, Qianmen Street is really bustling.

The carriage stopped at the intersection of the street, Ye Xinyi told Chang An to drive the carriage to the side of the street and wait, then walked into Qianmen Street with Liu Lu.

Ye Xinyi came here today to spend money, so he took Liu Lu to the largest silk and satin shop on Qianmen Street.Sure enough, there are a lot of new fabrics in the silk and satin shop, with new designs and colors, and fine workmanship, Ye Xinyi has taken a fancy to a lot of them.According to the usual habit, you may not be willing to buy it, but today you are ruthless and ordered a lot.

The shopkeeper of the silk and satin shop saw that he was a big customer. He smiled from ear to ear and greeted him personally.Ye Xinyi still felt that it wasn't enough, so he asked Liu Lu to go with the guys from the silk and satin shop, and move all the selected materials to the carriage at the street corner before returning, and the two of them continued shopping.

I bought silk and satin, isn't it still short of gold and silver jewelry, rouge and gouache?

Liu Lu didn't dare to raise any objections, and took those guys away carrying the fabric.

The shopkeeper graciously invited Ye Xinyi to sit at the back, served tea and fruits, and apologized, saying that he would ask a waiter to look after him later, and then went to greet other guests.

The business of this silk and satin shop is really booming.

The place where Ye Xinyi was sitting was at the back, but it was quiet.With one window half-opened, one could see the small courtyard behind the silk and satin village.Although the yard is small, it is well-organized. There is a peach tree by the window. Although it is past the time of blooming, the tree is still full of lush greenery. It is pleasing to look at.

Hearing an imperceptible sound of footsteps around him, Ye Xinyi propped his head in one hand and held the tea bowl in the other, without turning his head, he said, "You are busy with business, so go and entertain other people. I don't need anyone to serve me here. I am here alone. Sit down and leave when my girl comes back."

"Mrs. Shen is really leisurely and leisurely. At this time, I can still drink tea leisurely here." A cold voice suddenly sounded in my ear.

Ye Xinyi was startled, and suddenly turned around, only to see a person standing beside him.He was of medium height and build, dressed in an unusual attire, and even his raised face was so ordinary that he couldn't find it after throwing it into the crowd, but even if he restrained himself, he still couldn't hide his cold and murderous aura. Not at all unusual.

Ye Xinyi's almond-shaped eyes narrowed, and he sneered, "You guys are really in a hurry to come after me here."

"We are anxious, so naturally Mrs. Shen should be more anxious. Otherwise, when our Hall Master personally comes to remind Mrs. Shen, Mrs. Shen will inevitably suffer."

In these words, there is a blatant threat.

It's not that Ye Xinyi didn't understand, but because he understood, he was even more angry, "It's not that I'm not in a hurry, didn't I listen to your words and return to the mansion from my mother's house, and coaxed Shen Yue back home? But, I just said something, and he scolded me, and rested in the study all night. What can I do?"

"What's more. I don't even know what you want to ask."

The man was silent for a while, probably knowing that Ye Xinyi was not lying. After pondering for a moment, he briefly explained the matter, "Five days ago, Dali Temple cracked a case. When we searched a workshop, we found A blueprint of the Ministry of Industry's latest blunderbuss barrel. The court suspected that someone was secretly colluding with the enemy. The emperor was furious and ordered Jinyiwei to investigate strictly. All the officials of the Ministry of Industry were suspended and temporarily placed under house arrest. Dongchang and Jinyiwei were ordered to supervise. After a search, they found the head of Mr. Zhang Xuzhang, the left servant of the Ministry of Industry. Now, Mr. Zhang Xuzhang and his family have been imprisoned."

"Is Mr. Zhang one of yours?" Ye Xinyi's brows raised slightly imperceptibly.

The man frowned, and his voice became cold and hard, "I don't need to worry about Mrs. Shen. This time, the emperor personally appointed the presiding judge of the prison torture trial, and it is Mr. Shen. We have never bothered before. Mrs. Shen, for the first time, Mrs. Shen must show some sincerity and help us find out what kind of people in the prison to recruit."

Ye Xinyi's eyebrows became tighter, "Don't say that my family has a clear distinction between public and private, just say that my relationship with him now, I'm afraid it can't help you. You are so powerful, no matter how thick the prison wall is, I'm afraid it won't help you." I can't stop your pervasiveness, so why do you have to pin your hopes on me?"

"If it weren't for Mr. Shen's outstanding ability to prevent the water from pouring in, we wouldn't need to bother Mrs. Shen." The man's voice had become a bit colder, "If the villain can't persuade Mrs. Shen, we can only ask my hall master to come and see her." Mrs. Shen saw you."
