Jin Chunzhong drank a lot of alcohol, his mind was drowsy, and he couldn't think carefully. He had to go to bed first, and plan to inquire more carefully tomorrow. That Song He was smart and would definitely leak.
Although Yang Feng's family was not found on this trip, he might accidentally catch a big fish, which could be regarded as an explanation for the emperor, so Jin Chunzhong slept soundly.
At night, he vaguely felt that there was another person beside him, but he was too sleepy to open his eyes, so he told himself that it was a dream.
This dream was too real. The people around him reached out and hugged him. Jin Chunzhong woke up and sat up abruptly, only to hear a scream from the side, there was really someone, it was a woman.
"Who?" Jin Chunzhong shouted.
"Fourth Master brought it here..." The woman trembled, she was really frightened.
Jin Chunzhong thought for a while, and finally remembered that Song He had indeed said that he would send a woman from the capital to sleep with him, but he clearly refused.
Jin Chunzhong rubbed his eyes and softened his tone, "Don't be afraid... How did you get in?"
"I... they sent me in." The woman didn't seem to understand what he meant.
The entourage had already slept. It must be the innkeeper who opened the door to send people off. Jin Chunzhong felt that he should change to another inn. The county town was too small. Apart from this one, there was only another small and dilapidated inn.
Jin Chunzhong felt a headache, "Light the lamp."
"Yes, official." The woman also seemed to be much more natural. She went down to grope, and Jin Chunzhong pointed the direction. After a while, the woman found tinder and flint, and skillfully lit the oil lamp.
It was a young woman in her twenties, with a beautiful face, wearing only a small coat, her arms were exposed, she looked a little cold, and she tried to make a smile on her face.
This is indeed much stronger than the previous vulgar powder.
"Are you from the capital?" Jin Chunzhong asked.
The woman smiled, "Weeds without roots, wandering around the world, have indeed stayed in the capital for a while."
The woman walked to the bedside, Jin Chunzhong pointed to the clothes on the bedside, "Put it on."
The woman was stunned for a moment, but she had no doubts. She slowly dressed. Every movement was soothing and graceful, not like dressing, but more like undressing.
Jin Chunzhong had to look away. He was a normal man, but he had a heavy responsibility.
"The slave family invites the moon, what do you call the people who haven't asked the instructor?"
"My surname is Jin, I came from the capital, I passed by here..." Jin Chunzhong said vaguely, this Yaoyue was just here to sleep with him, he didn't know anything, and he didn't want to say more.
"The capital is beautiful and Tianbao, and the son has a good appearance. He must be the son of an aristocratic family." Yaoyue changed the title from "official" to "son".
Jin Chunzhong refused to answer. Yu Guang saw that she had already put on her dress and said, "You can leave, just tell Song He... You can say whatever you want, whatever you want."
Yaoyue smiled, "Thank you for your concern."
Yaoyue walked to the door, but Jin Chunzhong was moved with compassion. People like Song He would not have the heart of pity and cherish jade. Yaoyue failed to seduce the guests, and he would be punished after returning.
"Otherwise, you can stay for a while, and it's easy to explain when you go back."
Yaoyue turned around and said Wanfu, said "Thank you, son" in a low voice, walked to the table and sat down, with low eyebrows, no flair, and no trace of dust on her body.
Jin Chunzhong couldn't fall asleep, so he put on his clothes, sat by the bed, his mind slowly turned, and he suddenly remembered that he could ask this woman for news.
"Have you come to Hu County soon?"
"About half a month."
"The capital is prosperous, everyone wants to go, why did you leave?"
"I can't help myself, not to mention that all kinds of purples and reds grow out of the soil. Beneath the prosperity, there must be humbleness. What the son sees is the prosperity. People like me are in the humblest position, and they are the same everywhere."
Jin Chunzhong was quite surprised and felt that this woman was not bad. "Your master is really willing to pay for his money. It must have cost a lot of money to bring you from the capital, right?"
"I came here voluntarily, and I didn't pay Fourth Master a penny."
Jin Chunzhong was more and more surprised, "Why is this?"
"I'm going to a place, but I'm penniless, and I'm a woman, and it's hard to travel. It happened that the fourth master was going to Beijing. I heard that Huxian is relatively close to Donghai Kingdom, so I voluntarily committed myself and came along."
"You're going to the East China Sea? It's still far from here. First, you have to go east along the river, and then go north. It will take at least half a month."
"Is there any way, I have to take one step at a time." Yaoyue sighed softly.
Jin Chunzhong's sympathy suddenly rose, and he almost said that he wanted to take her to the East China Sea, but then he thought that he was working for the emperor and brought a woman by his side, which was really inappropriate.
"If you can wait a few more days, maybe I can help and give you a ride."
"Thank you, Young Master." Yaoyue is probably used to hearing promises and seeing no text, so thank you is not particularly sincere.
Jin Chunzhong was thinking seriously, "I'm just going to the East China Sea, do you have any family there? I can give you a message and ask them to pick you up, it will be more convenient."
Yaoyue raised her head, "Young Master is going to East China Sea?"
"Yes, leave when your companion arrives."
Yaoyue thought for a while, then shook her head gently, "I have no family in Donghai Kingdom."
"Then who are you going to defect to in the East China Sea? Friends?"
Yaoyue still shook her head, "I have never been to the East China Sea, and I have no acquaintances there."
Jin Chunzhong became more and more curious about this woman, "If that's the case, why do you have to go there?"
Yaoyue was silent for a while, probably thinking that this young master Jin was not like a bad person, and said, "I'm looking for someone, it's me... The former master, he went to sea in the East China Sea and his whereabouts are unknown, I want to find out who is what happened."
Jin Chunzhong was surprised that such a woman was loyal to the old master, but he also admired it a little. "The sea is dangerous, and accidents are inevitable. You can't find out if you go to the East China Sea."
Yueyue bit her lip without making a sound.
Jin Chunzhong wanted to inquire about the news, but he was attracted by the other party's affairs. After thinking for a while, he said, "It's better, I'll rent you a room here, and I'll go to Donghaiguo to help you inquire about the whereabouts of the owner. If there is any news. , send someone to inform you, what do you think?"
Yaoyue got up, and Yingying knelt down and bowed, "Thank you, Young Master, for your kindness, but what I want to inquire about is not the whereabouts of the master, but... how he was framed."
"Please get up. Didn't your master die at sea? Why is there still talk of being framed?"
Yaoyue got up and said, "Since the son is a son of a family in the capital, I don't want to say more."
"What, was your master framed by an official? Just in time, I know a few adults, and I may be able to rectify his injustice."
Yaoyue bit her lip and thought for a while, "Young master is going to the East China Sea, right?"
"National Prime Minister Yankang? I have met several times, but I don't know each other well."
"Where's the son of the Yan family?"
"Master Yan Peng? We've met more often, but we're not familiar with each other. Do you want Prime Minister Yan to absolve your master? I can talk."
Yaoyue shook her head, "It was the Yan family who framed my master."
Jin Chunzhong was shocked, suddenly remembered something, stood up and said, "Who is your master?"
"General Huang Pugong of the building ship."
Jin Chunzhong was stunned and sat down slowly, "How can General Huang... He used to be a member of the Yan family, right?"
"Yes, even I have lived in the Yan family for a while, so I know that the Yan family is extremely dissatisfied with General Huang and has always wanted to put him to death."
"Do you have evidence?" Jin Chunzhong had more contact with the criminal officer, and the first thing that came to his mind was evidence.
"The news that General Huang had gone to sea and did not return came to the capital at the beginning of August, but more than ten days ago, Master Yan Peng came to me and threatened me, claiming that no one could protect me, and it would be better for me to die—how did he know in advance? General Huang has an accident and will never return to the capital again?"
This is not proof, Yan Pengshi is a powerful son, and he dares to do anything when he is angry.
Jin Chunzhong thought for a while and looked at Yaoyue, "Do you know who I am?"
"I heard from the fourth master that the young master may be someone by the emperor's side, but I don't know anything else."
"So you want to use me to sue the imperial court?"
Yaoyue knelt down again, "General Huang is the favorite general of His Majesty's own hand. Does His Majesty have no doubts about his disappearance? The son made this merit..."
Jin Chunzhong raised his hand to stop Yaoyue from talking and asked her to stand up. He thought it was a coincidence, but it was arranged. This woman is not easy. She must have won it by herself to come to sleep with her. Can you tell me how you came to Hu County?"
"Master Yan Peng threatened me, and then there was news of General Huang's disappearance. I knew that the situation was not good, so I escaped from Huang's house that day and had nowhere to go. I had to go to the sisters I knew before, and see you there. When I arrived at the fourth master, I overheard him saying that he would stop the emperor no matter what, I thought I could take the opportunity to sue the imperial court... I didn't expect to be taken to Hu County, and I couldn't leave, so I had to stay."
"Stop the emperor? What else did he say?"
"I don't hear much, words like 'money road', 'fields', 'courage'."
"What business does Song He do?"
Yaoyue thought for a while, "I didn't see any goods he brought, oh, he might be a human tooth."
"Um?"
"He always has to estimate the price first, so I guess he is in this business."
Jin Chunzhong asked for a price himself, and he was even more confused. How powerful can one person be, and how mad to stop the emperor
"You go back to Song's house after dawn."
"Yes."
"I will praise you a few words to Song He, and he will send you over again. You find a way to find out what Song He wants to do to the emperor, and you can sue you for doing this."
"Young master... is he really the one by the emperor's side?"
"Song He wants to pay 100,000 taels of silver to buy me, do you think I am?"
Yaoyue smiled and nodded solemnly, "I will ask clearly, the fourth master's mouth is not strict, I didn't care too much before."
Jin Chunzhong asked Yaoyue to sleep on the bed, but Yaoyue refused to lie down on the table.
The next day was still before dawn, and Yaoyue left quietly. After getting up, Jin Chunzhong was not idle. He sent two entourages out to continue to inquire about Song He's details, and asked the shopkeeper to send Song He a post to ask for a seat back.
In a small lake county, something big is going to happen.
