Probably because Yu Zhou's expression was too meaningful, Pei Siyuan always felt that something was wrong.

"Did you misunderstand me?" Pei Siyuan said unwillingly.

Yu Zhou glanced at him and said, "Isn't it good for us to talk about your private affairs with Mr. Huang behind your back?"

Originally, Pei Siyuan wanted to try his best to correct his image in Yu Zhou's mind, but was blocked by the other party's words.

"I'm really not..." Pei Siyuan raised his hand and gestured for a position.

"Yeah." Yu Zhou didn't refute him, he just had an expression on his face that you're happy.

Pei Siyuan didn't expect that one day he would lift a rock and hit his own foot. Immediately, a mouthful of old blood filled his heart, and he couldn't get up or down.

But if he continued to argue at this time, he would appear to have no confidence, so he could only be forced to stop this topic.

Pei Siyuan listened to the storybook in the teahouse for a while, but found it boring.

The two waited until nightfall, but did not receive any news.

When Yu Zhou's stomach grunted for the second time, Pei Siyuan took him to Jiang Yue Zhai.

When they came out after dinner, someone from the forbidden army finally came to report to Pei Siyuan, saying that they had a clue.

Several dogs of Master Yu wandered around the capital for half a day, and finally one of the dogs found a house in Yandaifang in the southwest corner of the capital.The house is hidden among many dwellings, and there is nothing unusual from the outside. There are even peach branches hanging in the corners to ward off evil spirits. At first glance, it looks like the life of ordinary people.

"This place is really hidden. If our people search it, I'm afraid they may not be able to find it in ten days and half a month." Pei Siyuan's relatives said to him: "Even if they search here, if they are not careful enough, they may not be able to find it." It's easy to miss."

"Go in and have a look." Pei Siyuan said.

Hearing this, the relative led him into the house.

Yu Zhou followed behind him, and saw that there were many imperial guards guarding inside and outside the house. Although it was dark now, the house was brightly lit by torches.

In the corner of the yard, there was a cellar door that was opened, and the light of the torch was also reflected inside.

"Under there?" Pei Siyuan asked.

"Yes." The relative next to him said: "There is a cellar in this house, and the top is covered with firewood. If it weren't for the dog of the young master, brothers would really not notice it."

Hearing this, Yu Zhou thought of those dogs, and subconsciously turned his head to take a look, only to find that the dogs were sitting beside him quietly, all of them were sitting there quietly looking at him.Because of their darker color and relatively low height, it is difficult to find them at night when they are so blocked by people. If Yu Zhou hadn't searched around deliberately, he really didn't notice them.

"!!!" Yu Zhou resisted the urge to scream, but his body still responded honestly.

He barely had time to think about it, and he dodged to the side, and crashed into Pei Siyuan's arms impartially.

"Dog!" Yu Zhou grabbed Pei Siyuan's clothes and said in shock.

Pei Siyuan reached out to wrap his arms around his waist, then turned to look at Young Master Yu who was at the side.

Young Master Yu was probably still a little afraid of him, so he didn't dare to say anything, but when he saw him looking over, he smiled courteously at him.

"Come here, take Master Yu and his dog home." Pei Siyuan said.

Hearing the words, Young Master Yu hurriedly bowed to him and said, "Thank you, Vice Commander Pei, that..."

"Your dog has made meritorious service today, and I will truthfully report this matter to His Majesty." Pei Siyuan said.

"Okay, okay, thank you, Vice Commander Pei, then I'll go back first." Yu Xiaohou said and saluted him again, and then left with his dog.

It wasn't until the dogs left the yard that Yu Zhou breathed a sigh of relief.

At this moment when he came back to his senses, he realized that he was not only hiding in Pei Siyuan's arms, but also wrinkled Pei Siyuan's skirt.

"I'm sorry." Yu Zhou took a step back, reached out and brushed Pei Siyuan's body a few times, trying to smooth out his wrinkled places.But now that the weather is getting warmer, Pei Siyuan's clothes are already thin, and his body froze immediately after being brushed by him like this.

Pei Siyuan grabbed his troublesome hand and said in a deep voice, "Be honest!"

Yu Zhou looked at him with an innocent face, thinking how could he be dishonest?

How did he know that the few times he flicked on Pei Siyuan's chest indiscriminately, the other person's whole body was almost unwell.

"Yang Ming." Pei Siyuan took a few deep breaths, calmed down, and said to one of his followers, "Notify the people from Dali Temple to come and register the evidence, and arrange for the brothers who have been running around for half a day to go to Jiangyue Zhai for dinner. Charge it to my account."

The follower named Yang Ming should be busy.

They have been working with Vice Commander Pei for a long time, and they probably get this kind of treatment often.

After all, Deputy Commander Pei is well-known in the entire capital for spending money like water, but his reputation is even worse, and others have ignored the fact that he is also half a "dandy".But he belongs to the kind of dandy who is knowledgeable and skilled, and has a "rogue" style, which is still fundamentally different from others.

Erlang, who had been hungry for most of the day, couldn't help being in a good mood when he heard the words.

For a moment, Yu Zhou seemed to hear the stomachs of people all over the yard making slight grunts one after another.

Yu Zhou thought to himself, sure enough, he has meat to eat with Vice Commander Pei.

"Stay here for a while and tell me about the situation here." Pei Siyuan said to Yang Ming.

"Yes." Yang Ming said and led Pei Siyuan into the basement.

The basement can't be considered too spacious, but it is full of the types of medicinal materials that they banned a few days ago.

In addition, on the other side of the basement, there are some strange looking tools.

"When we came here, the master of refining medicine was in the basement, so we detained it together." Yang Ming said: "The subordinates here have roughly counted the medicinal materials here, and they are similar to those that were not counted before. It should be The missing batch. In addition, some medicines he had just refined and some semi-finished products were also found."

Pei Siyuan glanced at those things and left without much interest.

"It's also thanks to him being busy refining medicine today, the smell wafted out through the mouth of the cellar, although we couldn't smell it, but the dog could smell it." Yang Ming said: "It's his fate, he can't escape after all. "

"Didn't you say before that that kind of medicine can only be sold in places like Xunhuanlou?" Yu Zhou asked Pei Siyuan, "Now that Xunhuanlou is empty, and most of their people have been arrested, why? Will he continue refining medicine?"

Pei Siyuan was startled when he heard the words, suddenly realized, and said: "I just said that something is wrong, so it is like this."

He looked at Yu Zhou and said with a smile, "Your question is really on point."

Pei Siyuan didn't explain to him right away, so he told Yang Ming: "You transfer another team, no... take my token to go to General Wu of the patrol battalion, and ask him to send someone to clear all the medical centers in the city. Control them all, and at the same time send people to stare down all quack doctors and wandering doctors."

He thought for a while and then said: "Take someone to guard the gate of the city. All people who leave the city in the past few days will be strictly checked. Anyone who is mentally ill or sick will be detained, and the people from the Tai Hospital will check whether they have took that medicine."

"Yes." Yang Ming said hurriedly.

Seeing that he gave an order, Yu Zhou looked blank, but he didn't dare to ask more questions at this moment.

"Brother Yu Xian." Pei Siyuan stretched out his hand to press Yu Zhou's shoulder, and said, "I find that you are becoming more and more likable."

Yu Zhou looked at him blankly, and asked, "I... what's wrong with me?"

"If you hadn't proposed to use a dog to help today, I'm afraid things wouldn't come to fruition so quickly." Pei Siyuan said, "And what you said just now reminded me of the key to this matter."

Yu Zhou was puzzled and said, "What are you talking about?"

"Since the Xun Huan Building has collapsed, why does he still need to refine medicine?" Pei Siyuan said: "As long as he abandons this place, leaves the capital and flies far away, no matter how capable we are, we may not be able to catch him. Why did he want to Taking risks, refining medicine at this moment?"

Yu Zhou thought for a while, but didn't understand, his expression was still blank.

"Do you still remember that we heard in the warm pavilion earlier that the person next door said why they took the risk of refining medicine in the capital?" Pei Siyuan said persuasively.

"Because the medicine can't be kept for too long, it will be broken if it is far away." Yu Zhou said.

"Do you understand now?" Pei Siyuan asked again.

He probably liked admiring Yu Zhou's way of racking his brains to think about problems, so he stared at him very patiently, as if intending to take a closer look at his dazed and innocent appearance.

"I still don't understand." Yu Zhou said.

"Haha." Pei Siyuan reached out and patted his head lightly, and said patiently: "He took the risk of refining the medicine at this time, which means that someone will use this medicine in the next few days." Otherwise, the medicine that has been refined will soon be gone. Ineffective, there is no need to do anything extra at this time.

"I understand, someone is addicted!" Yu Zhou said hastily.

"Isn't that clever!" Pei Siyuan laughed.

Because someone is addicted to drugs, if they don't continue to supply the drug, the other party will get sick.It is probably because the status of drug addicts is not low, and it is not easy to get rid of them, so in order to cover up the matter, they must continue to supply drugs to each other in the days to come.

And because it is the "regular customers" who are addicted to drugs, even if Xunhuanlou is gone, it will not affect their communication.

"Your credit has been added!" Pei Siyuan couldn't help stretching out his hand to pinch Yu Zhou's ear, and said with a smile, "This time you must be rewarded properly."

Half an hour later, Pei Siyuan took Yu Zhou to have a supper at Jiangyue Zhai.

"Isn't the door closed for rest at night?" Yu Zhou asked curiously while eating.

"This street is bustling, with many flower houses and theaters, and the people coming and going can stay until very late. That's why Jiang Yuezhai deliberately postponed the closing time last year, and he would not close the fire until midnight." Pei Siyuan explained to him.

Yu Zhou didn't say anything when he heard the words, but secretly thought in his heart that next time he was too hungry to sleep in the middle of the night, he could come here secretly for supper.

Pei Siyuan's people found the last batch of medicinal materials and arrested the master who made the medicine. The news spread in Beijing early in the morning.

Lu Zhinan didn't expect him to move so fast, and was obviously quite surprised.

"Young master's dog helped a lot in this matter." Pei Siyuan said: "But Yu Sheren deserves the most credit. If he hadn't proposed to ask the dog for help, I'm afraid it would be difficult for the sons and daughters to find the place."

"I can't see that Yu Sheren is so smart." Lu Zhinan said.

"He looks stupid, but he is very wise and foolish." Pei Siyuan said with a smile on his face: "If he hadn't reminded me last night, I would not have thought so quickly that there would be people addicted to drugs in this capital."

According to the imperial physician, it is unlikely that this drug will become addictive in a short period of time, and only long-term use can produce strong dependence.So Pei Siyuan was only focused on looking for other clues, and didn't think about it for the time being.

After a while, he might also be able to think of this idea, but Yu Zhou's reminder saved him a lot of time in detours.And at this juncture, time is an extremely important bargaining chip for him. If it is a day and a half later, the outcome of the matter may be completely different.

"Not bad." Lu Zhinan said.

Pei Siyuan raised his eyebrows and said, "Your Majesty won't reward him?"

"Rewards are naturally rewarding." Lu Zhinan looked at Pei Siyuan and said, "But even if I want to reward him, what's the matter with your face and proud expression? Those who don't know think he is from your family." Woolen cloth."

Pei Siyuan smiled and did not answer, but the expression on his face did not restrain himself at all.

"According to this way of thinking, I have a hunch...the matter should be settled soon." Lu Zhinan said.

"Don't worry, Your Majesty." Pei Siyuan saluted him, and said: "I have one thing to ask for your Majesty's permission."

Lu Zhinan glanced at him and said, "Changed your mind?"

Pei Siyuan didn't deny it either, and said, "I didn't pay much attention before, but now I realize that Yu Sheren has a very unique way of thinking on many things. His focus can always help me eliminate interference and find problems in the shortest possible time. The essential."

Lu Zhinan said: "Speak directly, how do you want to arrange him?"

"I think... why don't you let him stay first." Pei Siyuan said: "For the time being, let's hang on to the position of living servant..."

"Aren't you afraid that he will get involved now?" Lu Zhinan raised his eyebrows and asked.

"If you mess it up, just mess it up, it's a big deal... the minister will protect him." Pei Siyuan said.

Lu Zhinan looked up at him for a moment, but didn't say anything more.

Early the next morning, when Yu Zhou went to Jiang Yuezhai for breakfast as usual, Pei Siyuan was already waiting there.

Not only that, he also ordered porridge, as if he had calculated the time and was waiting for Yu Zhou to eat.

"You've helped me a lot this time. In order to reward you, His Majesty has allowed you to follow me on errands for the next few days." Pei Siyuan said as he put the freshly filled porridge in front of him.

Yu Zhou paused the hand holding the spoon, and asked, "What kind of reward is this?"

"Doing errands with me, isn't it a reward?" Pei Siyuan asked with a serious face.

Upon hearing this, Yu Zhou realized that he had said something wrong, and hurriedly said, "Forget it."

Pei Siyuan's face was still a little dull, as if he was not satisfied with Yu Zhou's attitude.

"I'm too stupid, I'm afraid of dragging you down by following you." Yu Zhou said.

"Who says you're stupid?" Pei Siyuan said.

"My former colleagues all said I was stupid. A few days ago, Zhuang Sheren read my daily note, and although he didn't say anything, I could see from his expression that he was very dissatisfied." Yu Zhou said.

Pei Siyuan thought of his daily life, and smiled and said: "They think you are stupid because they themselves are not smart enough to see your wisdom roots. I am different from them. You follow me, and you are considered a good horse with a good saddle." .”

Yu Zhou knew that he had no choice but to stay or go, so he didn't object.

Besides, following Pei Siyuan on business errands, apart from anything else, his mouth would certainly be worthwhile.

"Young Lord Yu's dog helped a lot this time. I was wondering if someone should keep some dogs in case of emergencies?" Pei Siyuan said casually while drinking porridge.

"Raising a dog is easy, but training a dog is not easy." Yu Zhou said, "Instead of wasting that effort, you might as well recruit Young Master Yu."

Pei Siyuan was startled when he heard the words, and said with a smile: "It makes sense, take him in, and give him some benefits when you need it."

Yu Zhou nodded and asked, "Have you found out who is addicted to drugs?"

"Not yet. The man who made the medicine was very strict. The people from Dali Temple interrogated him all night last night but they didn't find anything." Pei Siyuan said.

After finishing speaking, he looked at Yu Zhou and asked, "If you become addicted to drugs, and now you know that the person who made the medicine has been arrested, and you dare not go to the medical clinic, what will you do?"

Yu Zhou thought for a while and said, "I don't want to die, I can't run away, maybe I will...surrender myself?"

"Surrender yourself?" Pei Siyuan asked.

"It's lenient to be frank and to resist strictness... Is there any other way out if I don't surrender?" Yu Zhou said: "I just don't know about your... how is our policy, can surrender be treated leniently?"

Pei Siyuan smiled when he heard the words, and said: "Yes, not only will I be dealt with leniently, but I will also reward you!"

After finishing his breakfast that day, Pei Siyuan ordered his followers to post a notice in the city. The content of the notice was to the effect that: confession is lenient, resistance is strict.

If you surrender early, you will not only be less guilty of the crime, but you will also receive timely medical treatment.

Pei Siyuan's previous arrangements had already blocked all roads for drug addicts.

They must have been tortured terribly, and had no hope. Now that they have reached a higher level, they really can't hold their breath anymore.

In just two days, more than a dozen people came to the yamen to surrender.

These dozen or so people confessed a lot of things one after another in order to try to mitigate the crime.

"Can you catch the man next door to the Nuan Pavilion this time?" Yu Zhou asked.

"It's hard to say, it depends on whether their confession is enough." Pei Siyuan looked at Yu Zhou and asked, "Guess, I won this time, or he won?"

Yu Zhou thought for a while and said, "I still hope you win."

"Okay." Pei Siyuan said: "If I win this time, I will reward you with a favor."

Yu Zhou was taken aback, and asked, "What's the benefit of rewarding me?"

Could it be... Call me Brother Yu, right?

Yu Zhou imitated the way Pei Siyuan pulled him and called him Brother Yu, and immediately got goosebumps all over his body.

The author has something to say:

Yu Zhou: This benefit... I don't want it
