Dew timid

Lu Yu couldn't let go of his small gesture, and frowned, making people feel uneasy for no reason.

After meeting for a short time, they parted after a slight swipe. Lu Yong and Jiang Zhuliu entered Zhang's mansion.

The scenery of the yard was obviously in ruins, the unmodified flower clusters were visibly wilted, and the weeds grew wildly very fast.

Jiang Zhuliu ordered people to search from four corners, and the rest were assigned to various courtyards.

He and Jiang Zhuliu went to Zhang Zhengqing's bedroom and study.

The furnishings in the bedroom are the same as before. As soon as the door was opened, a damp smell rushed over. Lu Yong covered his mouth and nose with his sleeve, stretched out his hand to disperse the dust in front of him, and then stepped in with narrowed eyes. go.

The side of the bed occupies a wall, and is surrounded by a layer of light and fluffy curtains. Even after such a long time, you can still smell the faint fragrance when you get close to it.

Zhang Zhengqing is a man who knows how to do things, and he is also a man who knows how to enjoy himself. Unfortunately, the timing was not good, and the sky flooded half of the south of the Yangtze River with water, and he, in a daze, submerged his subterranean kingdom.

Li Qu had sent people to search this place before, but of course they returned without success. Fortunately, the people under his command did not destroy this room. Obviously, after it was closed for a period of time, it was well kept.

In addition to the curtain visible at the entrance, there are neatly stacked quilts on the bed.

There were no other large decorations, and several valuable decorations were also confiscated.

Jiang Zhuliu ordered two people to come in, and almost knocked bricks along the wall one by one. When a big family builds, they often install some hidden compartments inside.

In the end, nothing was found, not even a loose place was knocked out, and a room was built impregnably.

Lu Qi's eyes fell on the bulging cup, his eyes deepened slightly, he stepped forward and squatted down, and gently cut it open with a knife half arm long, and the fluff instantly flew up.

Jiang Zhuliu didn't understand, so he glanced at him, and the rest of the people also looked at each other, wondering why this master had to make trouble with a quilt.

The lint was shaken out, and there was nothing unusual. Lu Qi put away the knife, and said to the people stationed outside the door: "For things that can't be found on the surface, just cut open the things that can hide things, and they can't be pierced." For the wall and the ground, just cut these. In short, don’t let one go. If there is really no one, just set it on fire.”

They didn't intend to keep this mansion in its original state when they came here today, they had to turn it upside down.

Several soldiers glanced at Jiang Zhuliu, who nodded. They immediately drew their long swords and went out, digging open the mattresses and wardrobes one by one.

"puff--"

"Tear--!"

In an instant, the sound of clothes and jackets being torn was repeated one after another, and the cotton wool floating out was eloquent.

Lu Qi calmly withdrew his gaze from Jiang Zhuliu, with a faint smile on his lips. He was just a new official, and he could already hold his father's soldiers firmly in his hands. Back then, Jiang Zhuliu When Liu Qiwen joined the martial arts, there was still a burst of unsmiling movements.

Now this path is on the right track, maybe some people are born to be generals.

Thinking like this, a certain image couldn't help but appear in his mind, and his smiling face sank in an instant.

After a few words of advice, he turned coldly and left.

Jiang Zhuliu touched his cheek, a little puzzled, King Qi is happy at one moment, and angry at another moment, it's so hard to serve!

Naturally, it was impossible to stab only one room. After the news was conveyed, a wooden table was set up in the middle of the main courtyard, and all the bedding and clothes that had been searched in the room were taken out and thrown on it.

Waiting for the last piece to burn.

Lu Yong is in the study, behind the desk there is a wall with a variety of scrolls.

From isolated unofficial histories to folk picture books, everything is available.

Lu Yong took out a roll casually, put it in the palm of his hand, but weighed it twice, and a guard hurried in.

Holding something like a small stack of letters in both hands, he walked extremely fast.

"King Qi was found in a room."

Lu Yong raised his eyebrows, "Whose room?"

"According to a servant, that is Mrs. Xiao's room."

Lu Qi looked at the things brought in front of him, and was a little surprised. He didn't expect there to be something. Zhang Zhengqing really saved his hand, took the things over, and asked, "Who is this Mrs. Xiao?"

"It's the younger sister of the owner of the Southeast Bank. She died suddenly long before the accident, and that room has never been opened."

Whether it has been opened does not count what the servants say, but what the evidence says.

Lu Yong opened the letters, and after a rough glance, he felt that the order was a bit messy, and some places had been soaked by water, so the contents could not be seen at all.

He sat on the desk with half of his body, one of his long legs touching the ground was slightly bent, and his upper body was slightly arched, forming a gentle arc from the neck to the waist and abdomen.

In the vacant seat beside him, he could be seen laying out these letters one by one.

Lu Yong has seen Zhang Zhengqing's handwriting, and it is obviously not the same person as the one above, and there is a very eye-catching identity "my sister" in this word.

After getting the information, Lu Yong asked someone to check to see who married the 'sister' to the Zhang family.

The two wives of the Zhang family have older brothers and sisters, one is Mrs. Li, and her older brother is out on business, and it is said that it has been a long time since he visited the capital.

There is another one, the deceased Mrs. Xiao.

The things were found in Mrs. Xiao's room, and this 'sister' probably has something to do with Mrs. Xiao. Lu Qi slightly curled his lips, and he already had some eyebrows in his heart.

That person passed so many letters to Zhang Zhengqing, it must have been unexpected that he would keep such a hand.

He put away his things, and he stood up straight. There was a gloomy smile on the corner of his mouth, and he looked a little gloomy in this opaque room.

"Go ask your governor to come and go to a place with me!"

The few people walked to the southeast bank, fearing that they would startle the snake, except for Jiang Zhuliu, who was accompanied by a soldier dressed as a servant. It is said that this is the largest bank in Wangdu, and it is common for people to die here all year round because they haven't paid the money.

The whole bank looks gloomy from the outside.

They just stepped onto the steps, and a girl's cry came out.

The person who led the way turned slightly cold when he saw this, he greeted the people around him, and said coldly in a low voice: "Go! Shut that little bitch's mouth!"

After finishing speaking, he looked at Lu Yong again with an apologetic smile on his face, and with a flattering smile, "Is there any need for you, my lord?"

Lu Yong tilted his head slightly, and smiled treacherously at the corner of his mouth, "When you come to the bank, you are naturally borrowing money."

The little steward twitched the corners of his mouth with an apologetic smile, and sized him up unobtrusively. The dark black robe could be seen to be of high-quality workmanship, and the way he spoke after entering the door showed that he was a shrewd master. , those in charge dare not neglect.

Nodding and bowing quickly, he led the man to the upper room.

This room is very ornate, and there is a set of exquisite tea sets on the low table, and the screen is also very valuable at first glance.

Compared with the gloomy environment downstairs, it is a heaven and an underground.

The steward entertained them carefully, and asked between pouring tea, "How much do you need, my lord?"

Lu Qi's eyebrows and eyes were long and narrow, and the upward arc made his whole person extremely sharp, "One million taels."

Under the steward's pupil constriction, Yoyo took the remaining two words, "Gold."

"One... one million taels of gold?"

Lu Qi rubbed his fingertips with his fingertips, his expression was light, "That's right, are you here?"

The steward took a deep breath, and then exhaled slowly, trying to make his voice sound calmer, "Yes! Of course there is, but the amount is too large, and we can't handle the small ones. Let our boss do the small ones!"

Lu Qi gave a soft "huh", nodded lightly, and agreed.

As soon as the people left, Jiang Zhuliu knelt down on one knee and clung to Lu Qie's ear, "Borrowing money requires collateral, and we didn't bring anything. Will that Wu Sheng believe it?"

Lu Yong propped his chin, unconsciously drew circles on the table with his fingers, with a tired expression, "I'm afraid that I'm not really here to borrow money, as long as I can see his handwriting."

While speaking, the door was opened, Jiang Zhuliu hurriedly stood behind Lu Qi respectfully, and Wu Sheng walked in.

Contrary to the imagination, this is a man with an extremely feminine appearance, his eyes are cold, like a poisonous snake waiting for an opportunity.

The two looked at each other, Wu Sheng was the first to put on a smile, and said hello, "Young Master Lu."

"Master."

Wu Sheng sat opposite Lu Yong, and he rinsed the tea set in front of him very meticulously, and he was not in a hurry. After finishing all this, he glanced at the person behind Lu Yong without any trace, "Master Lu, what do you need? The amount is huge, this man?"

Lu Qi shook his head, his eyelids drooped slightly, and his voice was indifferent, "They are all people around me, but it's okay for my boss to say."

Wu Sheng didn't waste much time, and began to calculate the interest of the 100 million taels of gold for Lu Qi. His face was narrow, his eyebrows and eyes were raised very high, his cheekbones were raised, and his lips were smacked up and down. Speaking of interests, he is a smooth and shrewd businessman.

Lu Qi listened in a cloud of fog, lazily yawned, half-closed his eyes and said, "I don't understand."

Wu Sheng, who was about to speak out, couldn't hold back the smile in an instant when he heard the words, and the corners of his mouth twitched, "Then... am I saying it again?"

Lu Qi pursed his lips, still looking listless, "I'm tired and don't want to listen, my boss wrote it to me? After all, the amount is huge. If I don't get the interest, I will lose my life."

Borrowing money and repaying interest requires a set of procedures, and a single mistake may be the result of bankruptcy.

Wu Sheng gritted his teeth, and squeezed out a word from his throat, "Okay!"

Lu Yong covered his mouth with a veil and coughed twice. He turned over the veil calmly to hide the blood inside, and a deep meaning flashed in his eyes.

Soon a sheet of clear handwriting and clear loan items was written, and Wu Sheng handed it to Lu Qi.

Lu Qi didn't even look at it, and handed the things over to Jiang Zhuliu.

Afterwards, with the support of the latter, he stood up weakly, and said in a hoarse voice: "I'm sorry, I have an old illness, and I have to go back to see the doctor. As for this matter, I will go back and study it carefully. I will pay for it next time." Borrow again."

Wu Sheng saw that he seemed to be falling down like a fake, but he couldn't tell what was weird, so he nodded worriedly and helplessly, "Then Mr. Lu, rest well, I wrote it very clearly above, you old man Illness cannot be delayed, treatment must be cured as soon as possible!"

He understood that Lu Yong's borrowing money was to see a doctor, and gradually there was some sympathy in his eyes, and he thought that a ignorant son came, but he didn't expect it to be such a sick man.

Carefully sending the person out of the bank, an indescribably strange feeling lingered in my heart all the time.

There is no way to talk about it.
