[one three two]

Ghost, Zhou Jinyu is not afraid.

After all, in this world, many things are scarier than ghosts.

However, Zhou Jinyu couldn't resist a woman with a pale face and meticulous hair, who was dressed all in white.

She forced a smile, and then said to the terrified woman inside, "Sorry for the trouble."

Then, the next moment.

She quickly closed the door.

Turn around.

Clutching his chest, he quickly ran away.

Yes, it is far away.

Her legs were shaking, but it didn't matter, she could still run.

After running for a certain distance, Zhou Jinyu stopped, and behind him the servants of the Su Mansion also stopped.

Zhou Jinyu raised his head and looked at the starry sky.

In the darkness, suddenly there were a few stars.

She clutched her chest, and suddenly felt that her curiosity was too much.

She shouldn't have opened that door just now.

Zhou Jinyu returned to the banquet hall, singing and dancing in an instant. Even when she saw these watertight old fritters and officials, she felt very kind.

It was a kind of intimacy when meeting normal people.

After the dinner was over, the master of the Su family smiled and let Zhou Jinyu stay, and said, "The humble house is simple, I hope the imperial envoy will not dislike it."

Zhou Jinyu thought of that pale woman, so naturally he didn't dare to live in Su's house.

So, she flatly refused.

The atmosphere became a little awkward, because Zhou Jinyu said directly with a cold face, "No need."

Then, the officials present looked at me and I looked at you, and they were very puzzled by each other.

Why did the imperial envoy suddenly change his face? He was fine when he was drinking just now. How could he change his face faster than turning the pages of a book?

Sun Zhihai, magistrate of Yong'an County, came to his senses, and said with a smile, "It's okay, since Mr. Zhou doesn't want to live in Su's house, it's okay to follow the official to live in the yamen."

Zhou Jinyu also disagreed. She shook her head and said, "I'd better go to the inn, so I can visit the people."

Sun Zhihai was startled, and quickly said: "Yes, yes, the next official will immediately arrange government servants to protect Mr. Zhou's safety."

This Zhou Jinyu didn't refuse any more. After all, sending people over in the open and spying on him are no different.

Instead of waiting for her to refuse, and then sending someone to watch her secretly, it's better to let someone directly show up.

One after another, the officials were about to leave.

Sun Zhihai wanted to wait for Zhou Jinyu to leave first, and then he would leave.

Zhou Jinyu glanced at Master Su, and then said to Sun Zhihai: "Master Sun, please go back first, I have something to say to Master Su."

Sun Zhihai was stunned for a moment before he realized that Master Su was a wealthy local family with tens of millions of dollars in money. Now that the Imperial Envoy wants to stay alone, it must be because of the money.

He promised to be respectful on the surface, but in his heart he felt a little more contempt for Zhou Jinyu.

Even if Zhou Jinyu didn't take the initiative to ask him for money, he would naturally be ready to do so respectfully.

But now this young imperial envoy was so straightforward, he set his sights on Master Su right away.

Thinking of this, he snorted secretly, he was indeed young.

Young people just can't hold their breath.

The people in the room began to leave one after another. After Sun Zhihai left, only Zhou Jinyu was left as a guest, and Master Su in the room.

Zhou Jinyu glanced at him.

Master Su was in a panic.

"My... my lord, what can Caomin do for me?" Master Su asked with a smile.

Zhou Jinyu squinted at him, looked at him for a while, then shook his head lightly: "It's nothing, I just want to ask, is your lady okay?"

When Master Su heard her question, he was startled immediately. The expression on his face froze. He looked at Zhou Jinyu with some puzzlement in his eyes.

Zhou Jinyu smiled and said, "Don't worry, I'm just asking casually, and you can answer truthfully."

Master Su said vaguely: "Everything is fine, my daughter, thank you, Mr. Imperial Envoy, for your concern."

Zhou Jinyu stroked his chin and asked him, "I don't know how many ladies there are in Mr. Su's family?"

Master Su replied: "As your lord said, there is only one."

Zhou Jinyu nodded, pretending to be enlightened: "Is that so, when I just went out, I saw a girl about my age in the backyard, she must be the young lady of your mansion?"

Seeing that Master Su couldn't hide it anymore, he could only tell the truth: "Yes, my lord, it is the little girl."

Zhou Jinyu said: "I think she is not in good health, have you seen a doctor?"

Master Su was stunned for a while, and really didn't understand why the young imperial envoy suddenly asked about such a thing.

"I have seen the doctor, thank you for your concern." Master Su replied.

Zhou Jinyu nodded slightly, and sat down on the chair again. She filled the wine glass in front of her and drank it down in one gulp.

"Then... what's wrong with your lady?" Zhou Jinyu looked at him again and asked.

Master Su couldn't answer this time, he just felt a cold sweat on his back.

Zhou Jinyu asked, "Is it hard to answer?"

She asked this sentence very casually, it seemed like an ordinary question.But she raised her chin slightly, her eyes seemed to be smiling but not smiling, she was Wei Huanian who learned from her, and when Wei Huanian wanted to ask her something on weekdays, he would often look like this, which gave her a sense of oppression and made her dare not tell the truth.

Sure enough, Master Su panicked now.

He didn't know what to say.

If he was telling the truth and said that his daughter had the disease, then he would have leaked the fact that he wanted to marry his daughter away today with beating drums.

The consequence is that the daughter will definitely be taken away by the government.

But if he didn't tell the truth, he looked a little cold, with a little puzzled eyes, looking at Zhou Jinyu in front of him.

What the hell does this person... know?

Zhou Jinyu clapped his hands and stood up: "It's not convenient to say it, I'm just asking casually."

Master Su looked at Zhou Jinyu and said with an apologetic smile, "The little girl is not sick, but she is not in good health. She will be fine after a few days of recuperation."

Zhou Jinyu nodded, and said with a smile: "Yes, if you get sick, you should treat it well, so as to save the disease from passing on to others, isn't that right?"

Master Su nodded and smiled, "Yes, thank you for reminding me, sir."

Zhou Jinyu said, "It's getting late, I should go back."

Master Su immediately called for someone to take Zhou Jinyu back to the inn.

He thought for a while, and quickly ordered again: "Go, go and get the generous gift I prepared for Mr. Su, and put it in the cabinet on the left side of the study."

Regarding the generous gift, he originally prepared two.Originally, he thought that if the imperial envoy was easy to dismiss, he would give less.If it is difficult to pass, it is always right to give a generous gift.

But now that Zhou Jinyu has found out that his daughter has not left Yong'an County, this gift is obviously not enough.

When the servant brought the "gift", Master Su immediately handed it over respectfully.

Zhou Jinyu glanced at it, good guy, it's a full 3000 taels of silver.

It is indeed a great gift.

Zhou Jinyu asked, "Is this for me?"

Master Su hurriedly said: "Yes, please be sure to accept it, sir."

Zhou Jinyu stood still.

Master Su was worried, and quickly said: "My lord, the grass people kept her because they were reluctant to marry their daughter away. You also know that my daughter is getting old. If she stays at the house all year round, she might invite people to gossip. I just came up with a way to make everyone in the county think that I married her off, and please don't tell me, so that the grassroots can share the family relationship with my daughter."

Zhou Jinyu still didn't accept the banknote, but said: "This official understands, and I'm not a troublesome person, even if you don't mention it, I won't talk too much."

Master Su showed joy on his face. Sure enough, money is everything.

Wealth can pass through the gods.

Even the imperial envoys from the imperial court could not escape being bought by money.

Thinking of this, he also looked down on these officials from Beijing.

However, nothing.

Didn't those people who came here obediently go back because of his money?

In fact, he also knew that in Sun Zhihai's mind, the magistrate, he was a bank where he could withdraw money at will. Whenever Sun Zhihai needed it, he would take out the money. Therefore, his relationship with Sun Zhihai had always been very good.

However, his own daughter got the disease, no matter how good his relationship with the county magistrate was, he couldn't say it.

However, to his surprise, the young imperial envoy in front of him did not take over the stack of bank notes, but turned around and went out.

Master Su's hand holding the bank note trembled a little.

The imperial envoy did not take his money.

Is it possible that it feels less?

When Zhou Jinyu went out, there were a dozen or so yamen servants waiting outside, and the leader was the head catcher she had seen at the inn.

The head catcher came forward to salute and said: "My lord, I will escort you back home."

Zhou Jinyu nodded: "Let's go."

At this time, Master Su had already chased him out, he hesitated to speak, obviously he had something to say to Zhou Jinyu.

Zhou Jinyu walked up to him and asked, "Master Su, is there anything else?"

Master Su paused for a moment, then suddenly said in a low voice: "If your lord has orders, the grass-roots people will definitely obey you."

Zhou Jinyu hooked the corner of his mouth and said, "I will use you in the future."

After she finished speaking, she walked down two steps, followed the way she came, and walked outside the gate of the mansion.

When I went out, the wind had already started to blow.

The planetesimals that were originally in the sky are all gone, and the sky is black, like a big hole covering the sky.

She walked back all the way, this place was not far from the inn, and it rained halfway, at first it was still a light raindrop of misty stars, and it started to rain heavily after a while.

The catcher's name was Zhu Gui, and he didn't prepare an umbrella when he came, so he wanted to take off his robe and cover Zhou Jinyu's head from the rain, but Zhou Jinyu refused.

She has always liked the rain, but at this time a heavy rain came and drenched her thoroughly, she was not afraid in the rain, as if she was not afraid in the world, and the way she walked in the garden was quite different.

After returning to the inn, Liu Mu waited for her in front of the inn. He was relieved to see Zhou Jinyu come back.

Liu Mu came up to meet her, glanced at the yamen servants behind her, and said vigilantly: "Fourth Master, are you alright?"

Zhou Jinyu shook his head, and said casually, "What's the matter? Can I still be eaten?"

Liu Mu hurriedly said with a smile: "Fourth Master, you got caught in the rain, go in quickly to take a bath and change clothes, be careful not to catch cold."

Zhou Jinyu walked into the inn and wanted to go to his room.

When Zhou Jinyu walked to the door, Liu Mu suddenly said behind her as if thinking of something: "Fourth Master, inside..."

Zhou Jinyu had already opened the door, but it wasn't that there was no one inside. Instead, there was a young man in white standing with his back to her, looking at a pair of calligraphy and paintings hanging in the room.

Zhou Jinyu was startled: "Who are you?"

The man turned around, looked at her with a smile, and said softly, "My son-in-law."

Zhou Jinyu: "..."
