Li Jinyu listened curiously to Qian Cripple's dictation, and couldn't help asking: How did you find out so clearly?
Could it be that beggars have such good discernment and memory?
The beggars can't remember people, but they can remember the day when the food in the courtyard is particularly fragrant and the things in the swill cart are particularly rich.Qian Cripple gathered his dirty and torn clothes, lowered his head and replied, just knowing that when the other courtyard held a feast, he could confirm that Ye Gui'an had arrived.Li Jinyu scratched his ears, a little surprised.It's a simple truth, but not everyone can think of it.In particular, Qian Cripple is still an illiterate and hungry wandering orphan.This boy is actually quite smart.Huo Caiyu wrote it down in his heart, nodded and said sincerely: Thank you for your great help.Don't thank me, I'm just avenging my father.Qian Cripple pursed his lips, stopped talking a little, and couldn't help but confirm again, can the dog official really be punished?
Before Huo Caiyu could answer, he heard Li Jinyu on the side say firmly: Yes, absolutely.It was rare to hear His Majesty express his opinion so firmly, and Huo Caiyu glanced at him with some surprise.With Li Jinyu's promise, Qian Cripple left with peace of mind.and left Huo Caiyu and Li Jinyu alone.Huo Caiyu turned his head and glanced at Li Jinyu.Although he scoffed at Chi Zhongming's words, but now in the world of the two, Huo Caiyu couldn't help but have a little ripple in his mind.If you break this layer of window paper with Your Majesty, can you really make progress?
Your Majesty.He couldn't help but scream.Li Jinyu is bowing his head and patiently peeling peanut shells, there are no roasted and crispy peanuts in the palace in this inn, only ordinary boiling and not shelling.Because of the image, he couldn't chew it directly, so he had to peel it by hand.Huo Caiyu didn't know why His Majesty loved these foods so much, but seeing Li Jinyu patiently and meticulously pinching the peanut shells against the oil lamp, he felt that His Majesty was so cute.Huo Caiyu felt that he was probably crazy, and he felt pleasing to the eye when he saw His Majesty peeling peanuts.However, if the peanut shell is peeled too much, his fingers will be numb, Huo Caiyu reached out and picked up a peanut: Your Majesty, rest, I'll peel it.Li Jinyu shook his fingertips, which were a little numb, and happily let go of the peanut basket.Enslave Huo Caiyu once in a while, brush up on the bad feeling a little, and prove that he hasn't forgotten it.Li Jinyu thought calmly.For Huo Caiyu, peeling peanut shells does not even require internal force, and fingers can easily peel out round and full peanut kernels one by one.When I looked up, I just saw Li Jinyu sitting across the table, staring at the peanuts in his hand; After the peanuts were peeled, Li Jinyu quickly stuffed them into his mouth, and liked to stuff them many times in one go, until his cheeks became bulging, and then he began to chew.Staring at His Majesty's stuffed face, Huo Caiyu inexplicably remembered that when he was young and his family was not bad, he followed his father to visit the homes of other officials, and the lady of that family raised a white rat pet, and liked to stuff his mouth with food, which was exactly the same as His Majesty now.Especially His Majesty looked at his burning and bright eyes, Huo Caiyu's heartstrings trembled slightly.Does Your Majesty treat him the same way he treats His Majesty?
Chi Zhongming's bewitching words lingered in his heart during the day, and Huo Caiyu couldn't help but call again: Your Majesty.Li Jinyu stared at the half-peeled peanut in Huo Caiyu's hand, and responded absentmindedly: Huh?
What does Your Majesty think of me?
You?
That's good.Li Jinyu didn't know why Huo Caiyu's action of peeling peanuts in his hand stopped, and his ten fingers alternately pointed at the table, wondering if Huo Caiyu was tired of peeling peanuts?
What the minister means is that His Majesty is rarely nervous about treating the minister Huo Caiyu, his hands are flat on the table, a hundred words are circling in his heart, and he is trying to spit it out a little bit, and before he can finish speaking, he notices that Li Jinyu's eyes follow his hand, completely stained on the unpeeled peanuts.Huo Caiyu: The tense atmosphere just now suddenly dissipated, Huo Caiyu felt a trace of loss in his heart, reluctantly pulled the corners of his mouth, and picked up the peanut again: Your Majesty treats the ministers with kindness, and the ministers will do their best to serve the court and repay them with springs.Li Jinyu came back to his senses at this time, blinked, and didn't understand why Huo Caiyu suddenly said this.Wait, who wants you to repay you?!
Recalling Huo Caiyu's words, Li Jinyu almost wanted to jump.I want you to usurp the throne immediately, usurp the throne immediately!
But he didn't dare to say it now.His spiritual power has been consumed too much for a while, and he has not yet saved up his share of feigned death.If Huo Caiyu has murderous intentions and really kills him with a hot brain, it will be over.Li Jinyu held his breath, and finally couldn't help but hint euphemistically: Huo Aiqing, I think you can consider a higher position.For example, what is the Ninety-Five Supreme, I don't know why, Li Jinyu felt that when he said this, the color on Huo Caiyu's face suddenly brightened, and there was a little smile on his mouth: Yes, Your Majesty.With clues, in the next few days, Huo Caiyu and Chi Zhongming were obviously busy.The news brought by Qian Cripple was screened and locked in several courtyards, Huo Caiyu and Chi Zhongming went to investigate separately, and finally confirmed that Ye Gui'an's account books and letters should be in a separate courtyard in Huma Lane in the south of the city.Ye Gui'an may not have imagined that the secrets he had hidden under the tricks of dozens of individual courtyards would be so simply revealed by the beggars who could be seen everywhere in the streets and alleys and scolded by tens of thousands of people.Having found the location, they didn't startle the snake.The spring tax of the county capital and the surrounding counties and towns has been basically collected, and it happens to be reported and sorted out in the past few days, and the specific amount of Ye Gui'an who wants to be greedy will have to wait for all the taxes and silver to arrive.When the last wave of crucial evidence arrives, it will be time for them to close the net.In the past few days, Huo Caiyu has also tried Chi Zhongming's true identity, but Chi Zhongming only said that he was sent by an envoy in the capital to investigate the situation of the spring tax in Qingshui County.Huo Caiyu couldn't speak, so he could only give up.At least in the process of getting along with Chi Zhongming, he could feel that this baby-faced young man really wanted to solve the problem of Qingshui County.As for the rest, I will wait until I return to the capital to investigate.Huo Caiyu also guessed who would be able to send Chi Zhongming, Chi Zhongming has good skills and knowledge, in such a world, only big families can teach it.Could it really be that His Majesty doesn't put all his eggs in the same basket?
Huo Caiyu's mind was circling, and he secretly raised his vigilance against this Chi Zhongming, who had the good of Longyang, and tried to avoid contact between him and Li Jinyu.Although this guy says he has a sweetheart, who knows if there is one and who it is?
If it is His Majesty's secret guard, it is normal for it to be unknown; In order to protect himself, it is reasonable that His Majesty does not show his face in front of the dark guards, and does not even let the dark guards know his true identity.Chi Zhongming naturally didn't feel Huo Caiyu's reaction, and he was a little crying and laughing at first: Brother Huo, I don't have to be so guarded.Huo Caiyu glanced at him, and the meaning was self-evident.Chi Zhongming was helpless, so he could only slander Huo Caiyu's obsessive temperament, and he would definitely not be able to eat it in the future.After seeing Chi Zhongming for the first time, Li Jinyu tried hard to recall the record of Chi Zhongming in the original book.He hadn't read the chapter where Chi Zhongming and Huo Caiyu met, but he remembered mentioning it later, saying that Chi Zhongming was an orphan, and he was abandoned in the wilderness, and he was lucky to be picked up by a rich man who had nothing to do, and went back to be raised as his own parent; However, I don't know what happened later, Chi Zhongming's family was ruined, and he was also full of resentment towards the imperial court, insisted on being on the front line of the rebellion, and hated Huo Caiyu when he met late, and joined Huo Caiyu's banner.Li Jinyu looked at Chi Zhongming and thought: Now I can't see that Chi Zhongming's family is ruined, is it possible that the plot that caused Chi Zhongming to rebel against the imperial court in the original book has not yet arrived?
But judging from Chi Zhongming's position, whether it is the original book or the present, at least he has always been on the side of the people.In the last few days of waiting, Huo Caiyu simply rented a new room at the inn near Ye Gui'an's Courtyard to observe and monitor it closely.When the scheduled time came, there was no trace of the situation in the courtyard, it was still the daily activities, and the beggars didn't see anything wrong.Such an anomaly inevitably makes people a little impetuous.Chi Zhongming couldn't help but wonder: We can't find the wrong one, right?
Huo Caiyu looked out of the window at the courtyard and pursed his lips: Wait.Believe in Brother Huo.Li Jinyu is the most stable one, and he trusts Huo Caiyu unconditionally, Brother Huo must be right!
After two more days of waiting, there was finally a change.Qian Cripple reported that the beggars found that the swill bucket at the back door of the courtyard had become extremely rich.We are watching here, and we have never seen anyone enter the door, so Ye Gui'an must have another secret way.Huo Caiyu closed the window, his expression was serious, it was time to go.Chi Zhongming put away the usual smile on his face, and straightened his expression: Go.Huo Caiyu and Chi Zhongming teamed up, and Li Jinyu was full of confidence in them.He nibbled on melon seeds in the house until the next day, when it was dark, and then waited for the two to return.The two of them were not injured, but their faces were gloomy and frightening.Li Jinyu was taken aback: What's the matter, it's not going well?
Chi Zhongming slapped the folding fan a little helplessly: The thing is in hand, but Ye Gui'an is not easy to solve.What's the problem with the ironclad evidence?
Li Jinyu curiously opened a few thick account books and a pile of new paper letters that Huo Caiyu took out, is there a problem with the evidence?
The evidence is no problem, it is Ye Gui'an who has a gold medal for avoiding death.Huo Caiyu's expression was gloomy and a little complicated, he glanced at Li Jinyu, and was silent for a moment before saying, Ye Gui'an is the biological father of a favorite concubine in the palace.Favorite concubine?
Li Jinyu was stunned for a moment before he reacted, Concubine Xian, no, Concubine Xian?
Only then did he remember that the noble concubine's surname was Ye, and the main reliance on her long-term prosperity was her uncle, Prime Minister Ye Cheng, the first powerful minister of the Di Dynasty.And the county guard of Qingshui County is Prime Minister Ye's cousin!
It turned out to be the father of the noble concubine?
It's just that Li Jinyu still doesn't understand: What's wrong?
Even if Chi Zhongming thought that the identity of Xian Guifei would be threatened, Huo Caiyu should not be there?
Huo Caiyu saw that Li Jinyu didn't care at all, the depression in his heart eased slightly, understood Li Jinyu's doubts, and explained simply: Ye Gui'an relied on the door of Xian Guifei and Ye Chengxiang to enter the royal family's genealogy.According to reason, only the queen's closest relatives can enter the royal family genealogy and enjoy serious imperial treatment; But before the noble concubine was favored, and Prime Minister Ye Cheng was hot, he really made Ye Gui'an become.If the noble concubine can become the queen, it will be fine, if not, the Ye family will definitely be liquidated in the future.Prime Minister Ye Cheng is scheming, and eighty percent will not do such a thing; But Ye Gui'an is a really stupid person, and it is not surprising that he has this kind of behavior.But Li Jinyu still doesn't quite understand: What happened to the genealogy of the emperor's family?
Brother Li didn't know that there was an article about the imperial family in my Dadi Law Decree?
Chi Zhongming was a little surprised, and reminded that as long as it was not a crime of rebellion, everyone on the royal family's genealogy had a chance to be completely exonerated.Even if it is a capital crime, it can be forgiven.Since Ye Gui'an has entered the genealogy of the imperial family, he will naturally not give up this line of vitality.The prime minister's faction will inevitably use this article to make a fuss.Even if Li Jinyu wanted to go back and expel Ye Gui'an from the imperial family's genealogy, he would be obstructed by the prime minister's faction.Li Jinyu rubbed his cheeks, which had been stuffed with melon seeds all night, and had a headache: Do you want to let him go?
This law was made by the □□ of Ogi Chao himself, in order to worry that future generations would not have a chance to turn back if they made mistakes.Therefore, this decree was absolutely supported by the entire imperial family, and no emperor has ever considered abolishing it.The problem is that this law protects the lives and status of the royal descendants, but it suffers the people who are fished and fleshed.Huo Caiyu saw that Li Jinyu was sincerely struggling with how to bring Ye Gui'an to justice, and the gloom on his face dissipated a lot, and a trace of warmth appeared in his heart again.He was not mistaken about His Majesty.Let's think of a way for the time being, but it really won't work Huo Caiyu stretched out his hand and looked down, clenched his fists slightly, his voice was a little cold, and he killed him.Ye Gui'an's death sentence is not an exaggeration.If the court can't do it, he will be the blade in the palm of His Majesty!
The evidence is in hand, and the question of who to put it in is in.Huo Caiyu thought that Chi Zhongming would fight for evidence, but Chi Zhongming waved his hand in a dashing manner: The evidence will be placed there I have basically achieved my goal, so I will leave it to you later, Inspector Huo.Li Jinyu's eyes widened instantly.Inspector Tax Officer is the official title he gave Huo Caiyu!
Chi Zhongming called Huo Caiyu like this, proving that he already knew Huo Caiyu's identity?!
Huo Caiyu seemed to have expected it, his expression remained unchanged, and he only raised his eyebrows slightly: Okay.On the contrary, Chi Zhongming was a little surprised: Brother Huo seems to have expected it?
My identity has not been hidden, and it is easy for Brother Chi to find out.Huo Caiyu raised his head and looked at Chi Zhongming with an inquiring gaze, I was more curious about Brother Chi's identity.Brother Huo treats me honestly, I shouldn't have something to hide Chi Zhongming was a little embarrassed, but Ye Gui'an couldn't be caught, my errand was not complete, if his identity was revealed, it would be a little farther away from my goal of holding a beauty.Huo Caiyu: He didn't expect Chi Zhongming to use this reason.What's even more unexpected is that seeing the solemnity and seriousness between Chi Zhongming's expressions, he really thinks like this.I can't help much in the follow-up, so I'll ask Brother Huo.Chi Zhongming opened the folding fan in a chic manner, squeezed his eyes at Huo Caiyu, and wished us all a smooth return of beauties and get what we wanted.Li Jinyu didn't quite understand what dumb riddles they were playing, and when he heard this, he suddenly became interested, and looked at Huo Caiyu with some surprise: Do you have a sweetheart?
The original work is a novel without C, and the main plot line is Huo Caiyu's pioneering territory, and there is no mention of Huo Caiyu's sweetheart at all.Unexpectedly, after passing through, I actually knew that Huo Caiyu had a crush?
Huo Caiyu looked at Li Jinyu's interested look, carefully distinguished Li Jinyu's expression, and found that it was full of curiosity and gossip interest, without a trace of variegation, and suddenly felt a little panicked, and pursed his lips: Brother Chi said nonsense, don't believe it.Chi Zhongming sighed twice, and wanted to say something, but Huo Caiyu glared at him, shrunk his neck, and said with a smile: Then let's leave here and see you in the capital soon.Hey?
Li Jinyu was a little dumbfounded, and couldn't help but say, don't you come with us?
Chi Zhongming was a little puzzled: Why do you want to go with you?
Li Jinyu opened his mouth, and said a sentence Aren't you Huo Caiyu's little brother, but he didn't say it.He turned his head to look at Huo Caiyu, your little brother is going to run away!
Unexpectedly, Huo Caiyu's face was stiff, and his eyes looked at him a little heavy.
