Chapter 693 Xiao Yi, get up to work

Wu Zhen smiled slightly: "The mansion of King Yong is located in the northwest, so this typhoid fever was actually caused by you. For the sake of the people of the world, you must move to Jiangnan and wait until the death energy is eliminated before you can enter the capital."

The Great Yong family was divided.

Local families are particularly arrogant and are almost no different from local emperors.

In the Jiangnan area, the Yuchi family was the most prosperous, and raising troops and levying taxes was the second court. For many years, none of the envoys sent to Jiangnan had survived.

Xiao Yi played with the money and didn't say anything, but just looked at Wu Zhen with a smile.

This old man bullied him for his youth and was the first to return to his hometown. He was not familiar with everything here, so he wanted to trick him into Jiangnan and use the hands of the Yuchi family to get rid of his troubles.

It's a pity...

He stared at Wu Zhen and smiled even more vigorously.

He was born with a beautiful and elegant style, like a jade-like appearance. He was obviously very beautiful when he smiled, but his eyes were cold, like a sharp blade that could be sheathed at any time, which was really scary.

Wu Zhen is a civil official, timid.

He said unnaturally: "What is your highness laughing at?"

Xiao Yi curled his lips and seemed to mention it casually: "The three masters of the Wu family have four generations. The family holds five mineral veins, namely cinnabar, realgar, alum, Zeng Qing and Ci Shi, and are very rich and prominent."

Wu Zhen couldn't help but show his exclamation when he was praised and praised so much.

He straightened his back and weighed his fat and round belly, and was very proud.

At the meeting, Shen Jiang is very slightly licked.

Obviously, she already knew what Xiao Yi was going to say next.

She glanced at Wu Zhen and secretly cursed a fool.

Xiao Yi was not too slow: "Those five types of mineral veins are the raw materials for making Wushi San. All merchants selling Wushi San have to purchase ore from Da Situ at high prices. Speaking of which, this time, typhoid fever broke out in Chang'an City, and the supply of Wushi San in the medicine shop was in short supply. Da Situ should have made a lot of money, right?"

As he spoke, he casually lifted his robe and sat down.

The robe of the dancao is spacious and luxurious, setting off the young man like a pine and crane.

He held his chin and still looked directly at Wu Zhen, with a wicked smile: "What kind of death is angry? I look at it. This typhoid fever seems to be caused by someone deliberately in order to make money. Da Situ, what do you think?"

Wu Zhen's face suddenly turned pale and ugly.

He pointed at Xiao Yi with a tail: "As a person who looks up, no one has ever questioned his decisive calculations! King Yong made up his own fabrication and falsely accused the imperial court of appointing officials, and he would not be punished!"

"Oh, you said that typhoid fever was caused by this king, but it was caused by this king? I presented facts and reasoning, just fabricating and accusing you out of thin air? What does the officials in the trial do if they are so capable? Let the Grand Situ go and see Yunqi directly, wouldn't they know who the murderer is?"

"You...you are talking nonsense!"

Wu Zhen was furious and his round face flushed.

There is no calmness in the conversation with the aristocratic families just now.

In contrast, Xiao Yi, this young man looked elegant and romantic when he brushed his wide sleeves.

People at that time admired a beautiful man.

The reason why celebrities and scholars are keen on taking Wushi Powder is that it can make people become thin and elegant as fairy and have a shiny face like pearls and jade.

Many families looked at Xiao Yi's beauty and Wu Zhen's fat, round, rough and black.

The two of them sat together, and it looked like a toad grass growing beside a jade tree.

Although most of them are Shen Jiang's confidant officials, Xiao Yi's appearance is really pleasing to the eye, so the balance in his heart unconsciously leans towards Xiao Yi.

What a pity if such a beautiful man died young!

Ning Su, Duke of Zhenguo, immediately made a statement: "Empress, why not let Your Highness Yong be responsible for investigating this major incident of typhoid fever? I heard that when you were in Nanyue, you were a minister of Dali Temple and were very good at judging cases. If you can participate in the investigation, you can not only clear your suspicion and benefit the people, why not do it?"

Xiao Yi knocked on the low case.

I understand that Ning Su is paving the way for him to enter the officialdom.

Other families who admire Xiao Yi's appearance were also happy to give him a chance to survive, and asked Xiao Yi to investigate the incident.

Chen Jiang didn't have much expectations for Wu Zhen.

She curled her lips and chuckled: "I have never seen Ayan's ability yet. Since you all think you can let him try it, then give it a try. Ayan, you must investigate the case carefully and don't let down your expectations for you."

Xiao Yi didn't agree.

After coming out of Kunning Palace, Ning Su stopped Xiao Yi.

Xiao Yi said lightly: "Uncle?"

Ning Su patted his shoulder: "I have been back for many days, but I haven't visited the Duke of Zhenguo's Mansion. Your aunt and a few cousins ​​have never seen you before. I'm very angry when I waited for you."

Xiao Yi's expression was still indifferent, but there was a little more warm color in his eyebrows and eyes.

He said, "If I visit the Duke of Zhenguo's Mansion today, all the aristocratic families in Chang'an City will know that you are standing by my side tomorrow."

“So what?”

"Uncle, I play with Chen Jiang, and my chances of winning are only 20%.

"I'm willing to take a gamble."

"What if it's a complete defeat?"

"Although death is still glorious."

Middle-aged man with tough eyes.

Xiao Yi was squeezing the money and whispered: "Thank you."

Ning Su reminded again: "The Chang'an aristocratic family has a high position and power. If you want to enter the official career, at least two aristocratic families must jointly request the report. No matter how your highness hates human relationships, you have to make friends with several families."

Xiao Yi answered.

...

It was already noon after coming out of the palace.

Xiao Yi rode his horse back to the small restaurant, and saw Shi Ku pretending to be the shopkeeper, standing behind the counter and fiddling with the abacus. Several other confidants were bragging for a short brown dress, and were shouting and selling wine.

It looks like that.

It’s a pity that the whole store is full of murderous aura, and I didn’t see any customer visiting.

Xiao Yi changed his clothes in the backyard, walked to the front store with a towel in his hand, and saw Nan Jiaojiao coming in a lily-flowered food box.

"Husband!"

The little girl is sweet-mouthed and calls out before she even stepped into the threshold.

Xiao Yi replied, "Yes."

Nan Baoyi walked to Xiao Yi in small steps, wiped the sweat that did not exist on his forehead with a handkerchief, and said pitifully: "My husband has worked hard to support his family. I haven't seen him for half a day, so I have lost a lot of weight..."

Shi Ku held the abacus and his face was subtle.

It only took half a day to see how his master lost weight.

Nan Baoyi opened the food box with a smile and greeted, "I brought my husband a vegetable rice, braised meat and fermented black beans, all of which I cooked in my own kitchen."

Shi Ku stretched his neck and looked at it: "It seems that the food from Fu'an Building is very expensive, right?"

"Isn't it? I spent half a ingot of silver." Nan Baoyi said, and quickly added, "I mean the raw materials are very expensive. You are the new shopkeeper, and you will come to eat too. In the future, I will have to worry about taking care of my husband more."

Xiao Yi sat down, held the chopsticks, and said lightly: "He is not hungry."

Why should the food his wife gave him be distributed to others?

The anger in my heart is so painful.

He became even more angry when he thought of Xiao Yi's full-year salary being fined this morning.

He coughed and suddenly plucked the courage to curse, "It's not yet time yet, Xiao Yi, where are you going to eat?! Get up and work quickly! So many jars of wine have not been moved out, and your eyes are white?!"
