Chapter 104 Touched (yoyohly7109)
Master Liu's smile obviously paused on his lips, and he asked them to go home quickly as if nothing had happened, "If there are any results from the Yamen, I will let someone notify you."
Those who should be reminded have been reminded, and they have exhausted all their efforts. Su Ruojin secretly said to Mrs. Kong, just wish yourself well!
On the way home, Carpenter Zhang asked, "Ms. Su Er, you just said that someone gathered the craftsmen to do something bad? What kind of bad thing?"
"I don't know that. I just want to take it seriously and want people in the government to pay attention to it."
“Oh oh…” Carpenter Zhang obviously didn’t believe it.
Su Ruojin finally smiled, "Uncle Zhang, don't believe it, I really don't know."
“But what you said seems to make sense.”
Su Ruojin: ...What makes sense? In later generations, the media has developed, and there are a lot of conspiracy stories. You can name N number of them casually, and it has nothing to do with the truth.
Having said that, if the craftsmen are captured by the same organization, then what kind of organization would want both carpenters and weavers? Carpenters are related to defense, shipbuilding, and house building. What about Zhinang? Make clothes for these people?
You can't buy clothes anywhere, so you have to trick the weaver to get there? Thinking of home all the way, Su Ruojin didn't come up with any clues. It seemed that the stories of later generations were not so magical.
Back home, Su Yanli was back. Cheng Yingzhen said that his daughter had not come back after being out for a long time, and he almost went to the Yamen to report the case.
“You kid, if you are a moment later, your father will go to the Yamen to report the crime.”
Shu glanced at the young master with an expression on his face, "I'll just say it." He was not a big man, but he still had a lot of other things to do.
Su Ruojin quickly told her parents about the cause and effect, "Carpenter Zhang was sweating all over the winter because of a man he met by chance. He begged me. How could I refuse?"
"Why can't I refuse? You are just a seven-year-old girl. What can you do to help him? It's really..." Su Yanli wanted to beat his troubled daughter.
Seeing that her father was angry, Su Ruojin quickly came over to act coquettishly and begged to be let go.
What can I do if I give birth to my own child? Su Yanli had no choice but to handle her naughty daughter gently.
"You can't do this again. This kind of business is beyond your control."
“Yes, listen to dad.”
Su Yanli was so angry with his daughter that he lost all his temper.
The moon was dark and the wind was high, and the small courtyard stood silently in the cold wind. Suddenly, a black shadow came over the wall, and after the sound of a cat meowing, the door of the study room in the small courtyard moved, and the door opened flatly. , "Liu Mu, why are you here?"
Liu Zhubo squeezed into the study from the side of Huaping. The coldness on his body was washed away by the charcoal fire, and he felt much warmer instantly.
"Today, Su Erniang took a carpenter to the Yamen to report the case, saying that Zhi Niang might have been deceived."
“Another craftsman disappears?”
Liu Mu nodded, "Counting this, nearly a thousand craftsmen have disappeared in the north and south of our country in the past few years." Suddenly seeing the young master there, he hurriedly stepped forward to salute, "I have seen the young prince in my humble position."
Zhao Lan raised her hand to signal him to do whatever he wanted.
“Thank you to the little prince.”
It was rare to see the young master interested in his errand, so Mr. Shen quickly signaled Liu Mu to explain in detail the disappearance of the craftsman.
On the one hand, the young master is young, and on the other hand, he does not seem to be interested in the investigation. If Mr. Shen hadn't supported the entire inspection yamen, it would be paralyzed. Liu Mu also found that the young master seemed to be interested in the disappearance of the craftsman.
Only Hua Ping understood that the young master was not interested in the craftsman, but in the second wife of the Su family. He must be thinking, why is a little doctor's daughter involved in the craftsman case again?
Sure enough, Liu Mu talked about a lot of cases of missing craftsmen. Zhao Lan was not interested in listening. Hua Ping interrupted in time and said directly, "First tell me about Su Erniang's report today." He was speaking enthusiastically. Liu Mu: ...Well, he did come here because of today’s Zhi Niang case, so he thought about how Carpenter Zhang might have been deceived by Carpenter Li because of the disappearance of Li Carpenter three years ago, and wanted to follow her. Let's see where Lady Kong will be taken. In the blink of an eye, she is lost.
"He has not received any special training, so how can he catch up with those well-educated liars?"
Liu Mu nodded: "So just when Carpenter Zhang was panicking, he met Su Erniang who was buying a casserole. Under her reminder, he found the place where Mrs. Kong rented, but he didn't go back at all."
Looks like he was deceived.
Hua Ping asked: "Did Carpenter Zhang say what those two people looked like?"
“He has a burly figure and a deliberately groomed beard, but unlike the beards of men from the Central Plains, he has obvious nomadic characteristics.”
Mr. Shen concluded: "It seems that he is undoubtedly a spy from the Liaoxia Kingdom."
“The Liao Xia Kingdom keeps arresting our craftsmen, do you really not want to be a vassal again?”
As the Liaoxia Kingdom continues to annex the nomadic ethnic groups in the north, it gradually develops from a small tribe into a small country, and now it is constantly recruiting craftsmen. Ordinary people may not understand, but as a court official, a Liaoxia people The intention is obvious. The nomadic people are good at raising horses and hunting, but not good at other aspects, such as blacksmithing, building houses, etc. If the Liaoxia Kingdom is really ambitious, it must recruit craftsmen to develop agriculture, industry, commerce, etc., which are all necessary for the development of the country. substance.
“Is there any news from Jiang San Inn?”
The scout who had been hiding in the corner shook his head, "There is basically no news from everywhere."
If there is no pressure at the top, there will be no motivation at the bottom. This truth remains unchanged throughout the ages.
Mr. Shen looked at Zhao Lan, who had been silent all this time, and sighed secretly, could it be that the Yin Dynasty only had flowers and brocades, and no vigilance of burning oil? How long can the Dayin Dynasty continue to prosper?
Suddenly, Zhao Lan looked up and asked, "Did two people report the crime or one person?"
"The case reported by Carpenter Zhang." The young master almost asked Liu Mu, who was confused by the sudden question. When he reacted, he suddenly seemed to have caught something and suddenly sighed, "Ms. Su Erniang said not to underestimate the disappearance of a craftsman. The liar behind it may want to Do bad things."
Mr. Shen took over the words very sternly: "It's not just a bad thing, it's an attempt to harm our Yin Dynasty."
Suddenly, there was a light tapping sound on the table.
Everyone was stunned and looked at the source of the sound.
Pingyang County Prince Zhao Lan was tapping the table with his fingertips rhythmically.
Mr. Shen looked at him with wide eyes.
The people in the room stared at Zhao Lan blankly.
Little master, is this... finally touched?
Amid everyone's expectations, he finally spoke, "What do you need me to do?"
Mr. Shen jumped up from his chair excitedly and knelt down directly in front of him. "Little Prince—" he was choked with excitement.
On the second day of rest, Zhao Lan and Fan Yanjia arrived at Dr. Su's house around ten o'clock. The boys behind them were carrying gifts, which made people in the alley couldn't help but look around, waiting for the Su family's courtyard. After the door closed, they couldn't help but mutter, "The Su family has really climbed up the ladder."
Xue Wulang and Su Dalang had already passed the examination by Su Yanli. When Zhao Lan and Fan Yanjia arrived, he took the books home.
After returning home, Mr. Xue frowned, "I asked you to be at Su's house today. Why are you back again?"
