Chapter 1923

When Qiyou arrived in Yangzhou, he began to play everywhere. It reassures those who have ghosts in their hearts, but Chang Yongnian is not so angry. He wrote a letter and sent it back to the capital. Pan Shengyuan couldn't stop him.

The Imperial Envoys and their attendants can listen directly to them. So the fold came to Qihao in a few days.

After seeing it, Qihao smiled and said to Yuanbao, "go to Baihuayuan and tell the emperor and Empress Dowager that I will have dinner in the evening."

In the afternoon, Qihao goes to Baihuayuan to show Yuxi the origami. Seeing Yuxi looking at him, Qihao said with a smile, "Niang, this is a plea fold written by the officials who followed Qiyou to Jiangnan."

Yuxi just accepted the folding. After reading it, he said, "this method can only be used once."

Yunqing didn't understand. He asked, "what is it that can only be used once?"

"If Bai Zhenghu has any problems, he will be relieved to see him. Once a man loses his vigilance, he is easy to show his horse's feet. " But if Qiyou finds out that Bai Zhenghu has a problem, it's publicized and everyone knows that he's not a real dandy. Later, when I went down to investigate the case, the officials were afraid to relax.

Qi Hao said: "Niang, Chang Yongnian said in the fold that Bai Zhenghu had a very simple life, and his servants didn't invite him. He and Mrs. white do all the big and small business at home. "

Yunqing had no interest in this matter, but after hearing it, he was very surprised: "I have such a poor official in the dynasty?"

After hearing this, Yuxi smiled: "the magistrate's salary is sixty Liang silver. It doesn't cost much to buy a servant. You see Nie Xin's life is very simple because he is devoted to the people. But even he has three or four servants in his family. " Nie xinkao was sent out as an official after he was admitted. At that time, he was the county magistrate of a county in Yunnan.

When he was an official, he was diligent, honest and devoted to the people, which was very popular with Yuxi. However, Yuxi didn't promote him very quickly. It's not a good thing that he was promoted too fast when he was young. So even if Yuxi liked him very much, he didn't promote him deliberately. Today, he is just a prefecture with five products.

Nie Xin didn't know that Yuxi had been paying attention to him. He was promoted from county magistrate to Zhizhou within ten years without any background. His promotion was very smooth.

Yunqing hears the meaning of Yuxi's words: "do you mean that his simplicity is disguised?"

Yuxi shook his head and said, "you can't say that. Maybe it's just that the family needs a lot of money in case of difficulties, and he is unwilling to accept other people's support, and then sell the valuable things in the family to repay the money. And Qiyou happened to visit him at this time. "

"Of course, maybe it is. It's just that it's easy to be suspicious of a magistrate pretending to be poor. " So Yuxi thinks it's impossible to pretend to be poor.

Yunqing asked, "so he may have a hard time hiding."

Yuxi said with a smile, "I'm not a fairy. How can I know whether he pretends or has a hard time hiding. It will be known in a while. " If we find out the case, we will know.

Yun Qing turned to look at Qi Hao and asked, "ah Hao, is this white Zhenghu really colluding with the salt merchant?"

Qi Hao shook his head and said, "whether Bai Zhenghu colludes with the salt merchants is still uncertain. But there is something wrong with Jiangnan. Not long ago, Luffy's men accidentally seized a ship of private salt. " That's why when Zeng Xinde impeached Bai Zhenghu, Qi Hao ordered Qi you to investigate in Jiangnan.

"Have you told Qiyou about it?"

Qihao shook his head and said, "no, I want to use this to temper ayou."

Hearing this, Yuxi said with a smile, "that's what you've got." The child has the same ability and skill, but he is too lazy. I've been thinking about eating, drinking and playing all day without any ambition.

But as a prince, it's good. Too ambitious, easy to breed ambition. So Ming knew that when Qi you was on duty, he spent three days basking in the net and two days fishing. Yuxi never said he was going, and let him go. Others say it's no use.

Qi Hao said with a smile, "don't worry, you can grind slowly." Qiyou may have many shortcomings, but he is very respectful to his eldest brother. If you ask him to do something, even if you don't like him, you will do well.

This evening, Qiyou is having a meal with Pan Shengyuan in the box. Suddenly, Xiaoer brings a young girl with a lute in her arms.

Hearing that this girl is here to play music for them, Chang Yongnian looks directly at Qiyou.

Pan Shengyuan frowned and said to the waiter, "we didn't want to play music." Some high-end restaurants in the capital will also provide piano and music playing, in order to activate the atmosphere.

Of course, some of these women do not sell themselves. Yes, I do. However, most of the men are only interested in playing, and will not really take it home. And Qiyou's wind evaluation in the court is not so good, it's just that he is not active. In private life, Qiyou is famous for her clean body and self-care, let alone her lack of a room. Therefore, pan Shengyuan is very sure that this woman is not the apocalypse.

The waiter said respectfully, "it was ordered by the guest in the next room. Please listen." It was also the guest nearby who gave him a dime of ten Liang silver as a reward. There were not many such guests. After asking the shopkeeper for instructions, he brought the man. But if these guests don't want it, he will take it.

Qi you asked the woman, "which of these famous songs do you know, such as mountains and rivers, ambush on all sides, autumn moon in Han Palace, fishing boat singing late?"

The woman held the pipa Fu in her arms and said, "I can play..." It sounds like a spring. It's very comfortable.

"Then play a song of mountains and rivers."

Although Qi you didn't learn the melody, he often listened to Liu ER and Huang Siling playing the piano. Under the influence of our eyes and ears, we also have certain identification ability. So after listening to this woman's song, Qiyou thought it was very interesting and asked, "well played, have you studied for many years?" With such a standard, it's impossible to be a singer in such a restaurant. The guest next door is intriguing.

The woman got up and said, "I have learned to play Pipa since I was three years old."

"No wonder." Such a level can not be achieved in more than ten years.

Finish saying, open you to wave a hand to say: "go down!" If she is seen by her second sister, she will probably help her if she loses her temper. However, he was not interested.

The pipa woman looked at Qiyou, then lowered her head and said, "yes, my guest." She was a little nervous when she got the order today, but she didn't expect the dignitaries to look at her.

The second child also quit wisely.

Pan Shengyuan asked, "prince, do you want to see the guest next door?" See what this man has in mind.

Qiyou smiled and said, "I'm tired. I have to go back to the inn to have a rest."

From small to large, there are countless people who bow to him. Even, there are many big businessmen holding money for him. Joke, can he be short of money. Not to mention that the annual income of his three shops is very considerable, but that the farm and other things awarded by his parents are enough for him to live a good life.

Next door sat Rong Tongji, the richest salt merchant in Yangzhou.

When Qiyou left the tavern, a strong man pushed open and walked into the box next door: "big brother, they are gone."

Rong Tongji said with a smile, "you king is a nobleman. Can you see me because of a singer. In that way, he's too much of a prince. "

Yan Simao did not understand and asked, "elder brother, I know I will not see you. Why send a singer to me?"

"Just to test the response of Youwang." Speaking of this, Rong Tongji said with a smile, "you Wang, you don't look like a hard to talk Lord." You Wang speaks well, which is good for them.

"Elder brother, you are just too cautious. But he's a little boy. He's only a left handyman of the Ministry of punishment because of his good background. He can't really do anything. " Like his big brother, it took half his life to have a good day today.

Rong Tongji said, "be careful not to make a big mistake." There are still some things he didn't say, and he sent a message to let them converge in recent period of time. No more changes are allowed.

Yan Simao is a straightforward man. He doesn't understand that he has to bend around. He asks directly, "elder brother, what should we do next?"

Rong Tongji said, "wait a minute." If you can take this Lord, there will be no worries. However, there must be enough assurance to act. Otherwise, everyone will have to fold in.

When I got back to the inn, Qiyou just sat down and heard the guard outside saying, "Lord, Lord Chang, please see me."

Qiyou is a little impatient: "I'm tired. What can I do for him tomorrow?"

Chang Yongnian originally wanted to talk about today's events. Seeing Qiyou, he could not see him, so he could only go back.

After taking a bath, Qi you spread out his hands and feet on the bed.

Zhao Qian handed over a pamphlet: "Wang Ye, Ning Yi sent some things back." Ningyi is one of the guards that disappeared after landing. His ancestral home in Yangzhou can speak Yangzhou dialect, so Qiyou sent him to inquire about the news.

Zhao Qian shook his head and said, "yes."

When Qiyou heard this, he immediately got up and took the pamphlet from Zhao Qian. In addition to recording the life background of Yangzhou Prefecture magistrate, Tongzhi and other officials, as well as the top ten rich businessmen. Among the ten rich merchants, salt merchants account for five.

After reading the booklet carefully, Qiyou's eyes fell on the name of rongtongji. I will pay special attention to this man because he came to Yangzhou eight years ago. When he came, he was just an ordinary businessman. The other four salt merchants were more or less related to the local Wangs or the former governor governor. The remaining five rich businessmen, four of which are local, have accumulated wealth in two or three generations. Finally, the rich businessman is a business genius, known by the people of Yangzhou who have made their fortune, and is still talked about by many people.

That is to say, only Rong Tongji, who did not rely on anyone, spent eight years jumping from an ordinary businessman to the top ten rich businessman in Yangzhou. In the middle, I don't believe it if I don't get bored with it.

After half a sound, Qiyou said to Zhao Qian, "tell Ning Yi to let him thoroughly investigate this honor and Tongji." He felt that there must be a gap in this man.

Zhao Qian nodded and asked, "Wang Ye, how are they doing about Bai Zhenghu?"

Qiyou shook his head and said, "I haven't found out what's wrong with Bai Zhenghu yet." Maybe it's honest, maybe it's hidden deep. But he will understand.
