Chapter 736: Homecoming
Lan Ziyi took the reins and planned to urge the horse to leave, but when he heard this, he just said perfunctorily:
"I'm fine, please go back, wait for me to tell Boss Cao, thank him for his kindness, I will come to thank him another day."
But the servant of the Cao family who stopped in front of the horse had no intention of getting out of the way, so he still bent down and left the horse. Lan Ziyi hurriedly went back, and when he saw that he didn't get out of the way, he asked angrily:
"What are you going to do if you don't give way?"
The middle-aged man in the lead replied:
"Back to the Hou Ye, my lord has a message for me to bring to Wei Hou, and the master asked, 'Wei Hou spent a lot of money, but why can't the things entrusted to Wei Hou do?' ”
When Lan Ziyi heard what Cao Jinbao brought, he wondered for a moment, he tried to search in his mind for the matter of Boss Cao dragging him, and he didn't think about it for a long time. Lan Ziyi asked:
"Isn't it just the matter of the official grain and salt fields of the Northern Commercial Transport? Ziyi has already done this, why is Boss Cao still dissatisfied? ”
When the guy heard this, he looked up at Lan Ziyi and smiled:
"Wei Hou, think again?"
Lan Ziyi looked at the cunning appearance of the guy, and his heart was nameless, he just wanted to open his mouth to drink him and get out of the way, but suddenly remembered one thing, Cao Jinbao had asked him to introduce him and let the court borrow money from him, and Lan Ziyi forgot about this stubble for many days. Lan Ziyi, who recalled that he had missed the appointment, hurriedly comforted the people in front of him:
"Brother, what you said is that matter, don't worry, I will definitely do it, but it's a big matter, it's not done overnight, I have to discuss and discuss the operation."
The guy arched his hand:
"Wei Hou said this, but it is outside, my lord has always been a trusted friend of Wei Hou and Dai Gong, but Wei Hou is so perfunctory to my lord, this is chilling."
Immediately Tao Zhutu was displeased when he heard this, and he scolded:
"You villain, who are you talking about? My young master has a lot of opportunities, how can he do whatever you say? “
The guy laughed:
"This villain knows that the Marquis of Wei is a person with a title, and the acting duke is a feudal official who guards the northern frontier, and my lord is just a Jia man who is covered in copper stench, so naturally he does not dare to compare with the acting prince and the marquis of Wei."
Lan Ziyi comforted the guy and said:
"Brother, where are you talking about this? My father has always respected Boss Cao and has never looked down on Boss Cao. My third brother has always been impulsive and doesn't speak too much, so I ask my brother to forgive me. Please brother, you can bring a message to Boss Cao for me, I will do my best to drag things out, but because there were too many things a few days ago, I was delayed. Now that my three brothers and I have just come back from running errands outside, it's time to go home and get together. “
The guy nodded and got out of the way, Lan Ziyi also nodded to the guy, and then took the three brothers of the Tao family to urge the horse forward, when the guy suddenly said:
"Master Hou, the villain has to remind you, my lord is in a hurry about this."
Tao Zhutu heard the man's urging, and even though he wanted to turn around and scold, Lan Ziyi stopped him, only to see Lan Ziyi turn around and hug his fists:
"Don't worry, brother, please rest assured, Ziyi will definitely do things until Boss Cao is satisfied."
After that, Lan Ziyi pulled the three brothers of the Tao family to urge the horse to go away, and halfway to the Tao Rabbit asked Lan Ziyi:
"So what is Cao Jinbao? How dare his minions be so arrogant? Young master, what are you putting up with him? “
Hearing this, Tao Zhuhu shouted:
"Saburo must not be rude! That Cao Jinbao is rich in the world, most of the grain and grass in Beizhen are handled by him, and the acting prince has to be polite when he sees him, not to mention the young master and us? “
Tao Zhulu also nodded in response:
"The young master's career in the capital all costs Cao Jinbao's silver, and it is not a wise move to offend the God of Wealth."
Lan Ziyi smiled:
"That's the truth, if you offend anyone, you shouldn't offend him, since he urged me, I'll do it for him. Let's go, let's go home quickly, sister-in-law is in a hurry. “
Lan Ziyi and the Tao brothers urged the horse to rush home, and the Tao Yan was already waiting in the door, and when he saw Tao Zhuhu coming back, he quickly stepped forward to serve tea and water for Tao Zhuhu. Tao Zhuhu and Tao Yan haven't seen each other for a long time, and they have just experienced prison, and the two reunited Xiao Biesheng and got married, and they couldn't help crying with joy. Seeing this, Lan Ziyi urged:
"The eldest brother and sister-in-law have a strong affection and treat them until the evening, and you and I will go to the bedroom by themselves, and today the four of us brothers will have a good drink and celebrate."
Hearing this, Tao Zhuhu and Tao Yan immediately wiped away their tears, and the servants had already prepared a meal for the table, and Lan Ziyi ate and drank when they came to the table. Maybe it's because they've been tired for the past few days, and they took it all night in prison last night, and the three brothers of the Tao family, who are not drunk on weekdays, actually drank their heads very quickly today, Lan Ziyi felt sorry for them and was tired, so he didn't force them to attend the banquet, and asked someone to clean up the leftovers early and dispersed.
After going, Lan Ziyi went to the backyard, he first came to the bedroom of the Qiu family father and son, and when he pushed the door in, the Qiu family father and son were eating under the service of the servants. Seeing that Lan Ziyi came from a servant who arranged a sitting place for Lan Ziyi, Lan Ziyi sat down in front of Qiu Wenruo's bed, looked at Qiu Wenruo lying on the bed and Qiu Xiaozhi sitting on the chair on the other side, and asked:
"Are you two gentlemen feeling better?"
Although they were away in the past few days, the father and son did not participate in the attack and killing, and the two had enough time to recuperate. Now that he has returned to the capital, Qiu Wenruo's face is much better than before, he can already sit up from the bed and lean on the bed rail to feed people.
Hearing Lan Ziyi's question, Qiu Wenruo replied:
"It's much better, it's much better, Wei Hou is busy eating wine with the three Lang Jun of the Tao family in front of him, and he didn't forget to send someone to bring food to my father and son, it's really hard Wei Hou."
Lan Ziyi said:
"It was rude for me not to invite the two gentlemen to the banquet together, and Mr. Wenruo came to thank me for killing me."
Everyone in the room couldn't help but laugh when they heard Lan Ziyi's words, and after laughing, Qiu Xiao asked Lan Ziyi directly:
"Is Wei Hou okay?"
Lan Ziyi replied:
"It's okay, the two fathers-in-law have already settled it for me."
Qiu Wenruo asked:
"And what about the officer who was killed? His affairs are also settled? “
Lan Ziyi thought for a while and said:
"His affairs have not yet settled, and the two fathers-in-law are worried about the tens of thousands of people who died in Yu Hang, and they haven't paid much attention to this little thing. Mr. Wenruo reminded me that it was wrong, and today I met Du Qi, and he didn't use this matter to threaten me, which is really incredible. “
Qiu Xiaozhi asked:
"Met Du Ji?"
Lan Ziyi nodded, and told the father and son of the enemy family all about what happened when he came back to the yamen, and the things related to Tao Yan were omitted by Lan Ziyi. After listening to Lan Ziyi's words, Qiu Xiaozhi touched his beard and said:
"This matter is indeed strange, but Du Yi didn't do it, which means that the card he is holding in his hand is no longer of much use, and he can't hurt Wei Hou by using this matter as an excuse."
Qiu Wenruo said:
"There is this possibility, but it is also possible that Du Qi and they will wait for a more suitable opportunity."
Lan Ziyi said:
"This can only be taken one step at a time, and I can't guess why."
Qiu Xiaozhi listened to what everyone had said, and then looked at the servants standing around, and he opened his mouth and commanded:
"Stand down, all of you."
Lan Ziyi smiled and raised his hand to stop Qiu Xiao and said:
"Mr. Xiaozhi, what are you doing here? His Royal Highness is a trustworthy man, so why should he take away the people he sent? Just let them wait, there's nothing to avoid. “
