    I was in such a hurry to go out that I forgot to bring a light. It was cloudy tonight and the moonlight was not very clear. Shuci walked cautiously in the alley while holding on to the wall.

    Just now, she went to An Mansion to try her luck. As expected, the concierge didn't even deliver the message to her this time.

    How should she explain to her mother now that she is going back empty-handed

    Shu Ci was about to sigh when her mouth and nose were suddenly covered by someone from behind. The force was so strong that she almost suffocated.

    "Hmm who are you"

    One hand searched around his waist and soon hit a heavy object. The man pulled off the money bag with a strong force.

    She understood immediately, opened her mouth and bit the man's hand. The man was in pain but did not dare to scream. He was about to carry her to a remote place, but there was a strong wind behind her. When she turned around, her companion next to her was already being attacked.  The man was knocked to the ground without even making a sound.

    "who!"

    He subconsciously punched, but unexpectedly he stretched out his arm. The opponent quickly blocked with a backhand, swept his long legs, and slashed the back of the neck with a knife.

    Finally breaking free from the restraints, the first thing Shu Ci did was to pick up the money bag and hurriedly took a few steps back. When he looked up again, there were already two people lying on the ground who didn't know whether to live or die.

    There was a dark figure standing in the alley, and she tentatively leaned forward.

    "you¡­¡­"

    There was a wind blowing through the alley, and the clouds overhead gradually dispersed, and the bright moon shone down and shone on the cold mask, glowing with a layer of silver.

    "It's you" Seeing that it was him, Shuci relaxed and leaned weakly against the wall, "I thought you had left the capital a long time ago."

    After she finished speaking, she held the money bag and began to count whether there was any money in it. After all, the matter was not done, and if she lost money again, Mrs. Chen would definitely be angry.

    Shen Yi was about to speak, but he was worried that she would hear it. After pondering for a while, he deliberately lowered his voice using the vocal skills he had learned in the military.

    "These two people have been following you all the way, didn't you notice?"

    ??Shu Ci took a cursory glance: "I didn't pay attention."

    Shen Yi frowned: "It's so late, and you're still walking out? Do you know how dangerous the streets are at night?"

    She counted the money and hummed tiredly.

    "What did you do?" Shen Yi looked at her expression, "You look so bad."

    Broken silver and copper plates, the money was neither too much nor too little. Shuci held his purse in a daze and was speechless for a long time.

    Shen Yi was not sure what happened to her, so he could only guess: "What, it's missing? How much is missing?"

    As soon as he finished speaking, he saw big tears falling from her eyes, and he was confused for a moment.

    "You are much worse. I'll just help you make up for it."

    Shu Ci covered his face with one hand and just shook his head when he heard this.  Not wanting to cry in front of outsiders, she squatted down along the wall and tried her best to swallow back her tears.

    Shen Yi sighed and squatted down next to her, "What happened?"

    After calming down for a while, when Shu Ci raised his head again, there were no tears in his eyes.

    The Yan family did not have the habit of going to bed late. Although it was not yet time to watch the clock, there were no lights in the house. It was estimated that Mrs. Chen had gone to bed long ago, so the two of them sat side by side in front of the threshold.

    "You want An Yuanliang to intercede on your father's behalf?"

    "This matter has nothing to do with my father in the first place." Shu Ci tugged at the corner of his clothes angrily, "The court was arresting criminals who embezzled grain money. How could they imprison my father indiscriminately? He was not involved. This is not the case.  Are you unjustly accusing a good person?¡±

    Shen Yi chuckled softly and reminded: "But your father paid a bribe after all."

    Shuci said coldly: "Just those two hundred taels? These people in the court come and go, and they give away more than two hundred taels? Even two thousand taels is too little, don't think I don't know. Three years of Qing Dynasty  Magistrate, one hundred thousand snowflakes of silver, my father has been staying in the capital camp unable to get ahead just because he was honest and refused to buy favors in the past. He finally enlightened and was willing to give money, but this happened to him again."

    She shook her head and sighed: "I really don't know what kind of gods and monsters I have provoked"

    "If it's just a bribe, it will be distributed at most, and it won't endanger lives. Dali Temple can find out, and now they are just arresting people, and they will interrogate them one by one later."

    "Famate" She hugged her knees with a headache, "My father is the only breadwinner in the family now. If he leaves, my family will definitely be more miserable in the future. My sister is lucky and can get married, but I haven't found my husband's family yet.  My brother is also young" As she said this, she suddenly focused her eyes on him, "Nameless."

    Shen Yi responded casuallyWhat kind of medicine was being sold? He asked tentatively: "What are your orders, Your Majesty?"

    "I want to transfer someone from the prison of the Ministry of Punishment."

    He said thoughtfully, "I wonder who it is?"

    Shen Yi said quietly: "Yan Ze."

    He Shangshu searched his mind to no avail, so he had to lower his voice and ask his subordinates: "Who is Yan Ze?"

    The chief accompanying him flipped through the roster and whispered a few words in his ear.

    "This" He Shangshu looked very embarrassed. Seeing Shen Yi looking at him coldly, he quickly apologized and said, "Your Majesty, I don't know. This statement is related to the case of embezzlement of disaster relief food funds. He is the criminal in the hands of Mr. Xiao. Next  It¡¯s not good for officials to mention people casually.¡±

    He sneered: "So, do you still need his consent?"

    He Shangshu did not dare to say it clearly, so he could only laugh.

    "It doesn't matter." Shen Yi leaned on the hat chair and raised his eyebrows calmly, "You can ask someone to go to Xiao's house and see if Mr. Xiao is willing to give me this face."

    Outside Dong'an Gate in the north of the city.

    On the white tiger leather, there was a relief dragon pattern. The crimson -colored robe dangled outside the armrest. The slender five fingers opened the tea cover, and a white smoke spread away from the gap.

    "You said it was Shen Yi who came to ask me for someone?"

    The attendant kneeling below responded yes.

    The man put the tea lid back on, "Who do you want?"

    "What I'm saying to you, sir, is the general banner of Yaowu Camp."

    "Yan Ze? The general flag of Yaowu Camp?" He seemed to find it funny, but also seemed to be amused. He held the tea bowl and shook his head, "It seems that he is sure that I will let him go If he wants it, give him the man."  Bar."

    "yes."

    After finishing speaking, he stroked his chin back and forth with his index finger, and said with a strange curve on his lips: "It's really rare for the Shen family's royal family to have a clear stream. I think I won't be so lonely in the days to come."

    In the side hall with six doors, Shen Yi was still drinking tea, panting as he ran away, whispering to He Shangshu. After the latter listened, he faced him with a smile on his face.

    Shen Yi didn't even raise his eyelids, "Why, if you have any other requests, please mention them as well."

    ¡°Don¡¯t dare, don¡¯t dare¡­ If you are in a humble position, let me go.¡±

    He suddenly stopped, "There's no hurry."

    ¡°You bring Li Xiu here first, I have something to ask him.¡±

    "Yes Yes Yes."

    Another pot of tea was exchanged, and a man with disheveled hair and a haggard face knelt down in the hall.

    "Are you Li Xiu?"

    The latter glanced at him and nodded cautiously.

    Shen Yi said slowly: "I heard that Yan Ze will give you two hundred taels as a gift and ask you to help introduce him to Lu Quan. Is this possible?"

    Li Xiu still nodded: "It is true."

    "Do you have any letters of recommendation?"

    He thought for a while: "No."

    Shen Yi affirmed: "You do."

    Li Xiu frowned and felt confused, then recalled it carefully: "It really didn't happen."

    "I said if you have it, you have it." He raised his head and ordered, "Bring a pen and paper." (Remember the website address: www.hlnovel.com
