Daming: Depriving Zhu Yunqi of luck at the beginning

"Ah."

Sapphire hummed in satisfaction, and said:

"In a few days, although I won't be at the house, the filial piety of adopted sons and nephews from all over the world will also arrive. Please remember to collect it for me."

"Remember, keep a low profile."

The old housekeeper said:

"This old slave knows... By the way, Lord Hou, just now your adopted son Zhao Taichu sent a letter."

"The old slave thought you had already rested, so he didn't dare to disturb you."

talking.

Handed over the letter.

"Zhao Taichu?" Lan Yu asked in confusion, "Who is here..."

Seeing him like this, the old housekeeper hurriedly reminded:

"It's Yangzhou Wei..."

"Oh, to be the one with thousands of households in Yangzhou." As soon as he reminded him of the Blue Jade Sutra, he remembered it.

After receiving the letter.

Sapphire tore open the envelope and opened the letter paper inside.

Apart from a lot of nonsense at the beginning saying hello, Sapphire looked directly down.

Soon, I saw the point.

"A new Jinyiwei?!"

Even Lan Yu, who was in the capital, didn't know about such news.

How did he, a small thousand household in Yangzhou, know?

Doubts arose in Sapphire's heart:

"Could it be that you met someone who is bluffing? Long Xiangwei... Can Long Xiangwei's people know such a confidential matter?"

"Even Long Xiangwei's commander can't know, how can a small family like him know?"

I finished reading the letter.

Lan Yu decided that nine out of ten it was a lie, so she put it aside, wrote a reply letter at random, and handed it to the old housekeeper.

"Go and give this reply to the messenger."

"Anyway, Zhao Taichu will pay a lot of tribute to Ben Hou every year, and Ben Hou can't watch him being cheated."

The old butler nodded repeatedly and put away the reply letter.

Then backed out.

soon.

The reply was sent to the general bannerman who was guarding the door.

The general flag thanked him, and hurriedly rode his horse at night, guarding the gate of the city.

When the morning bell rang at five o'clock in Yinshi, as soon as the city gate opened, they rushed towards Yangzhou!

……

early morning.

He Li woke up from the big bed in the restaurant room and found himself dizzy.

Turn around.

Zhao Taichu and the old Qianhu surnamed Wang were sitting in the house, as if they had been waiting for a long time.

"Oh, He Qianhu, you finally woke up."

Zhao Taichu looked at He Li with a flattering smile, and stepped forward to help him get up.

He Li said helplessly:

"I drank too much last night..."

"Zhao Qianhu, Wang Qianhu, why do you two seem to be okay?"

"It's really good to drink!"

Wang Laoqianhu laughed and said:

"If you drink too much, you won't get drunk easily."

"He Qianhu, we discussed it with Zhao Qianhu last night. This matter is once in a thousand years... You must help our brothers!"

In the face of Wang Laoqianhu's words.

He Li deliberately pretended to be too drunk to remember clearly, scratched his head and said:

"What was discussed last night?"

"what's up?"

"Didn't we just drink last night?"

Zhao Taichu helped him to one side of the chair and sat down, then smiled and said:

"Brother He really is a nobleman who forgets too much."

"But don't worry, our brothers are not ignorant people."

talking.

Zhao Taichu carefully took out a thick stack of Ming Tongxing banknotes, and handed it to He Li.

"What do you mean?"

He Li deliberately pretended not to know, and asked.

A small box of gold yesterday, plus so many silver notes today...

These two people's shots are too generous.

If they only rely on the salaries of the two of them, they will never be able to spend so much money.

Zhao Taichu laughed and said:

"This is what our brothers mean to Brother He, and I hope Brother He will accept it."

"Brothers, don't be too small. When our brothers go to Xinwei, we will definitely not forget the kindness of our brothers."

Wang Laoqianhu also quickly echoed:

"Yes, yes, yes, our brothers are all dependent on He Qianhu now."

He Li took a look.

According to a rough calculation, the stack of treasure notes must be worth at least 1000 taels of silver.

Obviously, the money was only used to "buy" himself.

Those who really want to bribe those above are far more than these.

as predicted.

That Wanglaoqianhu immediately said:

"The two of us think together, the adults in the Captain's Mansion need to do things, and they must spend money to manage things up and down, so that they can find a good position in Jinyiwei."

"So we prepared two carts of gold to express our affection... He Qianhu, that's all our brothers' property."

"I also hope that the adults of the Captain's Mansion, don't be disgusted!"

Chapter 78

"Two brothers, the more you talk about it, the more confused I become."

He Li put the thick stack of precious banknotes beside him, with a dazed expression on his face.

"Did we tell you about the Jinyiwei? No?"

"Don't talk nonsense."

Zhao Taichu and Lao Qianhu immediately understood what He Li meant.

The two echoed:

"Yes, yes, yes, no, we all heard the news ourselves. I just hope that Brother He can help us connect with those in the Captain's Mansion."

Seeing things have come to this.

There is no need to pretend to be confused anymore.

He Li smiled slightly, got up and said:

"Okay, don't blame the two, this matter is a military secret, it's no small matter... I have to be careful."

The two hurriedly said:

"It's not strange, it should be."

He Li nodded, put away all the treasures, and said:

"Brother, I will accept the money first."

"Where did you two put those two carts of gold?"

Zhao Taichu and Wang Laoqianhu looked at each other, and finally Zhao Taichu stood up and said:

"Brother He, it's not that we don't believe you... It's just that these two carts of gold are extremely important, and there must be no mistakes."

"So, brother arranged a team of officers and soldiers to guard, and when brother returns to the capital, these officers and soldiers will accompany him to escort him."

He Li chuckled.

then.

He took out all the treasures that had just been stuffed into his bosom, and slapped them on the table.

"Since that's the case, the two of you don't trust me, so let's avoid this matter."

"I'll go to Zhenjiang Mansion and Changzhou Mansion again... There will always be someone who trusts me, little brother."

See here.

Both Zhao Taichu and Wang Laoqianhu panicked.

They originally planned to let their own people guard the gold until it was transported to the capital and handed over to the senior officials of the Captain's Mansion.

Unexpectedly, this would also annoy He Li.

Zhao Taichu thought that he had seen He Li's badge yesterday, and knew that his identity as Long Xiangwei Qianhu could not be faked, so he gritted his teeth and said hastily:

"Brother He, don't worry, Brother He, don't worry."

"This is brother, I didn't think carefully."

"Since that's the case, the two carts of gold should be transported by my brother... I'll take you brother to see the two carts of gold, and then withdraw the people under my command."

Hearing what he said, Wang Laoqianhu could only nod in agreement.

……

the other side.

Zhu Yuanzhang, who got up early, was taking Zhu Xiongying to have breakfast in a teahouse.

Elder Zhong was also sitting at the side, but he didn't seem to have much energy for drinking tea and kept yawning.

Waited a while.

Zhu Xiongying couldn't help but asked:

"Grandpa, you said He Li would bring money back..."

"What about others?"

"We've been drinking tea for half an hour."
