Chapter 365 Want money?
Jiang Lifeng had a confused look on his face, and was almost carried all the way by Ying Sinan into the nearby dim sum shop.
After entering the room, he realized belatedly: "Yes, yes, yes, there is an assassin?"
The voice was extremely low, almost breathy, and accompanied by a very obvious vibrato.
Ying Sinan observed the movements behind him calmly, then paused. He looked at Jiang Lifeng with an inexplicable look in his eyes: "As a young prince of the Nanyang Palace, you must have experienced many big scenes, right?"
Ying Sinan didn't say it explicitly, but Jiang Lifeng could read the unfinished meaning in the other's dark eyes that couldn't hide his emotions.
"How can you still be so scared?"!
Jiang Lifeng: “…”
Jiang Lifeng has a lot of grievances that he can't express.
The Nanyang Palace seemed poor, but in fact, they were really poor.
What they usually wore and collected were all items awarded by the palace, as well as some small items "tributed" by minor officials in the surrounding areas.
This matter is not enough to be told to outsiders, but...
Their living standards are indeed much worse than those of the other uncles Wang.
The valuable things in the Nanyang Palace are hard to sell, and the worthless things are really not worth much.
Therefore, few robbers would target them, and he lived a very smooth life. The biggest setback was meeting Ding Ruihan, a veteran who only talked about money and not love.
Jiang Lifeng's fear faded a lot because of this ridicule. Hearing this, he glared at Ying Sinan fiercely and said, "Just tell me now!"
Ying Sinan immediately put away his playful thoughts and said solemnly, "Since we came out of the shop where we bought the osmanthus cake, I vaguely felt that the expressions of the three people were not right, but I didn't pay too much attention to it at the time."
"But just now, I found that one of the three people in the group disappeared, and the remaining two are still following us."
Jiang Lifeng took a deep breath and his scalp felt numb!
The shop selling sweet-scented osmanthus cakes... didn't that mean they followed them almost the entire way?!
Ying Sinan's next words directly stopped him in his tracks: "They look like some martial artists. Don't stay too far away from me later."
Jiang Lifeng nodded repeatedly: "Okay, okay!"
……
[Dingsheng cake, osmanthus cake, jujube paste yam cake... hehehe~~]
The weather is fine today, and there is finally a hint of warmth in the wind.
Jiang Yanchuan ordered people to build a simple swing for her in the yard, and moved a round table over, which was filled with various fruits and vegetables. Even so, she was still thinking about the snacks that were about to be bought.
[When Brother Li Feng and the others come back, Cheng Cheng will have plenty of snacks to eat! ]
Jiang Yingcheng was swinging on the swing, having a lot of fun. She saw her favorite beautiful father walking out of the room from the corner of her eye, and the smile on her face became even brighter: "Daddy! Uncle Jiao!"
Jiang Yanchuan raised his hand to stop the Minister of Revenue Jiao Hongmiao from speaking, and gave the little guy a light smile: "Yeah."
Jiang Yingcheng jumped down from the swing with difficulty and ran towards her handsome father: "What are Daddy and Uncle Jiao talking about?"
Jiang Yanchuan took the little guy's slightly cold hand, frowned unconsciously, paused, turned around and led his people back: "Keep it a secret."
Jiao Hongmiao, who was following behind the two of them, paused, with a look of great doubt in his small eyes.
Your Majesty, is this move... meant to trick him?
Obviously, if you just say "government affairs", the kid will stop asking questions. So, isn't it obvious that you are trying to arouse the kid's curiosity by saying "confidential" in such a mysterious way? !
It’s just missing a sentence – “check it yourself”! !
Sure enough, the next moment——
【Brother Tong? 】
Jiao Hongmiao's eyes went dark.
God is the witness. He has never felt so dark before in his life as he does now. This long official road is all dark. As far as the eye can see, it's all wall.
Jiang Yanchuan walked back steadily, holding the little guy's hand. In a corner where no one was paying attention, he curled the corner of his lips almost imperceptibly.
Even before reaching the threshold, he bent down and picked up the little girl.
——The little guy was reading their previous conversation with great interest. It would be easy for him to fall down at this time.
【Um? 】
Jiang Yingcheng finally finished reading the important information and raised her head. She glanced at Uncle Jiao, whom she liked very much, with an accusing look in her eyes. In her heart, she said: [You want money? ]
Jiang Yanchuan happened to walk to the armchair at this moment. He put the little guy down and sat him down, then walked to the chair on the other side and sat down. After choosing a comfortable sitting position, he watched the show leisurely.
Jiao Hongmiao's body swayed a bit.
The little girl gave the purse as a gift to her handsome father as a "mysterious man". She wrote down the addresses and names of the large-scale victims for the pawn tickets, and regarded the scattered ones as part of a "gold mountain". She directly stated in the letter that she would leave them for Emperor Mingze to fill his private treasury.
But when they sent people to the address on the letter, the attitudes of the group of people were surprisingly consistent -
Don’t know, don’t know, don’t want.
The three expressions of rejection were so genuine that if they were not extremely sure that the information the little guy got from his voice could not be wrong, they would almost think that these things were not sent by them.
It was not until they reached the last house that they finally found out a little bit of the truth from the person.
The Ding Mansion also has a professional rumor spreading team. If the person who gives a gift wants to go back on his word, they will do everything they can to ruin the other person's reputation.
The method is simple and crude, and very brief and effective.
There was no other way, they could only return in tears with the stack of cold pawn tickets in their arms.
What Jiao Hongmiao was interested in was that stack of pawn tickets.
Those are all genuine rare treasures. Not only are they priceless, but each one can also make everyone in the Ministry of Revenue happy for three days!
Who would have thought that the first time I opened my mouth, I was rejected. The next time I opened my mouth...
Just, he was tricked by Emperor Mingze.
[Want the small amount of money Cheng Cheng prepared for her father, the beautiful emperor? ! ]
He didn't!
He is wronged!!
What he wanted was obviously the gift that those young masters refused to take back!!!
However, he was unable to speak out his pain and could not seek redress for his grievances. He could only watch helplessly as the little fellow angrily called out "Brother Tong". Then the man and Tong gathered together, and no one knew what news they were going to check.
I don’t think it’s good news!
After another while, the little guy's surprised voice and the dull footsteps of the ministers in the distance suddenly rang heavily in Jiao Hongmiao's ears.
【Oh haha——】
Jiao Hongmiao closed his eyes in despair.
[If Uncle Jiao could recover all the money his brother secretly took from his home, it would be a considerable sum of money! ]
Jiao Hongmiao opened his eyes in shock and anger!
When did this happen? !
How come he didn't know? ! !
