My Brother-in-law is the Prince

  Chapter 434 The truth comes out

  Ma Yu has found...

  The famous cry of the horse came to an abrupt end.

  Perhaps the result came so easily that he showed disbelief.

  Of course, the officials following Zhu Di all looked meaningful.

  Even Jin Zhong, who was most inclined to Zhang Anshi, glanced at Zhang Anshi meaningfully.

   This really lacks great virtue.

  Having been missing for so many days, what a coincidence, when Ma Yu's father made a fuss to God, he was found all at once.

   Also said that Jin Yiwei had taken Ma Yu long ago?

   This is seeing that things can't be covered, so they simply 'find' it again!

  Jin Zhong thinks this way, and the rest of the people probably think the same way.

   But at this time, they all kept silent, as if they were watching your performance.

  What kind of person is Zhu Di? He couldn't help but glance at Zhang Anshi suspiciously.

   His eyes seem to be saying, you kid, have you really done such a wicked thing?

  Ordinary scholars, they are caught as soon as they are caught, but this is a **** champion!

  But Zhu Di remained silent, but waited for Chen to pay his respects, and said, "I found it so quickly?"

  Chen Lidao: "Your Majesty, I heard that the champion was missing, and His Highness the Prince of the County paid special attention to it, so I went up and down with Weizhong to search hard, and I really found it."

  Zhu Di looked at Chen Li, then at Zhang Anshi.

  Zhang Anshi naturally felt the deep meaning in so many eyes. He felt a little wronged that he really didn't kidnap someone. Now that someone has been found, it seems that he really has something to do with Ma Yu's disappearance.

  Zhu Di said casually: "Then where is the person?"

  Chen Lidao: "It was found by a hundred households in Qixia. They are confirming and identifying their identities. Now they have been stalking. Being humble doesn't make people act rashly, it's just worrying... to scare the snake, no, no, it's not to scare the snake, it's to be humble..."

  Chen Li was at a loss for words.

  He has been in Jinyiwei for a long time, and he knows the seriousness of this matter. Jinyiwei cannot handle this matter.

  Anyway, the person has been found, someone has been watching him for a long time, Jin Yiwei has not moved a single hair, even if someone wants to take this opportunity to blame His Highness, there will be no reason at all.

   But if this horse champion is tied up, the situation will be different. He was not arrested in the first place, but now he is being escorted by Jin Yiwei. What is going on?

  Zhu Di said again: "Where is the man?"

  Chen Li hurriedly said: "It's in the alley near the dock."

  Zhu Di frowned and said, "Why didn't I find it before, but I found it all at once today?"

   That's a really good question, one that everyone here wants to know.

"This..." Chen Li hesitated for a moment and said, "Jinyiwei is responsible for guarding the night, reconnaissance and arrest, and the duty of enforcing the prison. Generally, it is against the party and traitors. People who are lost in this capital... If the palace There is an imperial edict, or there is a request for assistance in the search, so it’s okay for the Tiqi to search. However, it is indeed not within the scope of responsibility to search for the lost rashly. His Highness has long stated clearly that Wei Li only does what is within his responsibility and should not be taken lightly. Interfere in other affairs, so as not to be criticized by others."

   This reason makes sense.

   But the horse was in a hurry to become famous, and the son was found, but all relations were cleared up here.

  He is an old boy, although he has not seen much of the world, he is well versed in human relationships.

  His son is the number one scholar, so he can't bear the responsibility of being lost. After all, he was tied up.

  So his eyes flashed, and he hurriedly said: "My son has always been honest..."

  Chen Li immediately interrupted: "I have checked, and this person has been living in seclusion there for more than half a year. And no one coerced him, and his life is no different from that of ordinary people."

  Ma Yang said famously: "He doesn't want the top scholar, and he doesn't want the Imperial Academy's compilations bestowed by the imperial court. He wants to live in seclusion here. Do you believe these words?"

  Chen Li took a look at Zhang Anshi, and he knew that at this time he could only stand up to the thunder by himself. If he didn't stand up and explain to this horse, His Highness would have to respond in full view.

  So Chen Li said without hesitation: "This is his business, what does he think in his heart, what does he have to do with Jin Yiwei? Why don't you ask him yourself?"

   This answer is obviously not convincing.

  There are indeed too many strange things in it.

  Which person, who studied hard for more than ten years in the cold window, finally got fame, carp jumped the dragon's gate, but gave up everything and lived like an ordinary person?

   You must know that in Daming, Hanlin is a master, and it is the ultimate dream of all scholars.

   And scholars are just the envy of ordinary soldiers and civilians.

   Except for the emperor, this is the top of the pyramid, which means a bright future.

  Zhu Di saw that the two were still arguing, and turned to look at the officials.

  The ministers all have a meaningful look.

  When Zhu Di saw everyone's expressions like this, he hated it very much.

   These people are silent on the surface, seeming to be docile, but in fact they seem to have an expression that understands everything, as if they are conveying something.

  But Zhu Di himself didn’t live up to it. He also felt that… he understood everything. There are nine out of ten things… there is a big strangeness, and it should still be inseparable from Zhang Anshi.

  Zhu Di still wanted to defend Zhang Anshi in his heart, so he couldn't help being a little upset, so he shouted angrily: "This flag will be taken down."

  He shouted loudly, frightened Ma Chao who was behind Ma Yangming trembled, and carefully pulled down the flag.

  Zhu Di said: "Since people are here, then go and have a look, and you will know at a glance. Right, Zhang Qing's family."

  He waited for Zhang Anshi's reaction. If Zhang Anshi refused, it meant that Zhang Anshi must have a ghost in his heart. He, the emperor, simply took advantage of the **** to go down the donkey, and directly cut the mess with a sharp knife to calm the matter.

  If Zhang Anshi does not refuse, then maybe Zhang Anshi is really innocent, and he will investigate to the end.

  Zhang Anshidao: "Your Majesty, I think...it's so good, but...I think...you may not be able to find anything if you go there with such fanfare..."

   As far as Zhang Anshi is concerned, this Ma Yu is probably not a good person. He must have a purpose in hiding his whereabouts. Maybe it is aimed at Zhang Anshi, and it is clear that he wants to frame Zhang Anshi.

   When the time comes to call this person, it will be hard to say if this guy bites Zhang Anshi.

   Zhang Anshi has already figured out these tricks of scholars, all of them are very insidious and cunning.

  Zhang Anshi said: "It is better to visit unannounced than to observe clearly."

   "Unannounced visit?" Zhu Di looked at Zhang Anshi suspiciously.

  Zhang Anshidao: "Your Majesty, you forgot that you were in Jiangxi as the chief envoy..."

  After Zhu Di heard this, he suddenly understood, and said: "It's okay, let's just investigate and find out today!"

  ………

  Ma Sanzheng, holding a stack of letters, came to the study of the leased mansion.

   This mansion occupies a large area, and Ma Yu spent a lot of money to rent it.

   Here at Qixia Wharf, there were not many private houses originally, and mansions with a large area were even rarer.

  Because a large number of merchants gather here, the rent is expensive.

  But Ma Yu spent a lot of money and moved in without hesitation.

  He gradually began to understand the psychology of those merchants. The communication between scholars belongs to the kind where you know that his family has a lot of land, and he also knows that your family has a lot of land. After all, most of the gentry families lived in a certain place for ancestors. As long as you inform them of your name, they will immediately know your worth , so you don't need to show off, but the more low-key you can be, the better. When people see you, they will praise you for being gracious and good at housekeeping.

But merchants have different routes. Merchants are too mobile, and there is no so-called situation of being famous for many generations. Everyone can only identify your worth through your clothing, food, housing and transportation, so you need to live in a luxury house, wear American clothes, and have Enough pomp.

  In this mansion, dozens of servants have been hired, and even four coachmen are on call at any time. The carriages are all made in Qixia Chefang. They are expensive, beautifully decorated and very comfortable.

   In addition, more than a dozen clerks, several accountants, and some guys were hired.

He even specially arranged his own study. In the past, he didn't care about antique calligraphy and paintings. He always felt that antique calligraphy and paintings were just things that arty people liked. A real scholar would at most post a few pieces of his own running script, or a friend gave it to him. The Mobao that comes is enough.

But here, on the walls of the study, there are all famous paintings and calligraphy purchased at high prices. I can only wish that the person who signed the inscription and postscript is as big as a bucket. If there is a visitor, they will know that the calligraphy and painting must be expensive. Very.

   "Young master, a mail ship from Luzon has returned with many letters. There is also news about our fleet."

  Ma San held the letter and put it on the desk. Ma Yu was overjoyed, his eyes flickered, and he hurriedly said, "Are you there?"

   "Should have arrived smoothly. The shopkeeper Liu who led the team also has a letter. I'm afraid he wants to report the news to the young master. Look, his letter is here..."

Ma Yu looked excited. There were ten ships in this batch, all of which had just been launched. Not to mention that in these ten ships, he had a large number of shares of his own. , all of which were mortgaged by myself, once delivered successfully, and because it is the first batch of goods, it will definitely sell for a good price.

  Of course, if there is a mistake in the middle, it also means that he, Ma Yu, has lost all his money and all his hard work has been wasted.

   This letter is related to my lifeline. After nearly a year of planning and countless painstaking efforts, it may really be fruitful now.

  At this moment, the porter ran over and said, "My lord, there are some merchants coming to see you outside."

  Ma Yu here has some stable customers now, and now he hears someone coming to visit him, he immediately cheers up: "Do you have a famous post?"

   "There is no name post, just say to meet."

   Ma Yu frowned and said, "Many merchants are still not polite."

  Many merchants in Qixia got rich overnight, after all, Qixia has too many opportunities, and there are many people who get rich overnight, they often like to go straight to the point, and they are not polite.

  Of course... Although Ma Yu feels that such people are out of place, there is something he likes, that is, these people give money happily, and it may only take a few sticks of time to finalize a deal, and they really give money.

  Ma Yu cheered up and said, "Please."

   As he spoke, he said to Ma San again: "Go and serve tea."

   After Ma Yu finished speaking, she lowered her head, taking advantage of this gap, took the letter from the shopkeeper on the case file, and began to open and read it.

  He read it very seriously. After all, letters are not easy, and it is related to his wealth and life. Looking carefully, he first muttered in a low voice, but then he froze.

  His eyes seemed to be flickering, his lips were trembling, and the hand holding the letter was trembling slightly.

  At this time, a group of people hurried in from outside.

  The leader is Zhu Di.

  Zhu Di was dressed in ordinary clothes at this time, Zhang Anshi was also dressed like an ordinary merchant, and there were a few guards behind him.

  Oh, by the way, there are also Hu Guang and others, including Ma Yangming and his son.

   Such a mighty group of people, Ma Yangming and his son, lowered their heads and hid at the end without showing any signs of expression.

  The father and son murmured in a low voice, dressed as domestic servants, extremely inconspicuous.

   Ma Chao whispered: "Father..."

   Ma Yangming gave him a sneaky look and said, "Don't yell, don't let people see you, lower your head."

   Ma Chao was puzzled and said, "Why is that?"

  Ma Yang said famously: "You know what a fart, since Zhang An Shi said that he wants to wear casual clothes, there must be some conspiracy. Let's plan first, and later...follow my eyes."

   Ma Chao had no choice but to say: "Oh, oh, oh."

"Later..." Ma Yangming continued in a very low voice, "In any case, we must clear your brother's innocence of resigning from office. It is not easy for him to get a job. If it is a last resort, you Kneel down and cry for me, make trouble for the old man, and look at me."

   Ma Chao said in shock: "I...I dare not, Your Majesty will beheaded, and I don't know how to deal with us later, if we make trouble now, wouldn't it be... wouldn't it be..."

Ma Yangming glanced at Ma Chao meaningfully, and said in a very low voice: "Son, I have two sons, one is your brother and the other is you. You were stupid when you were young, and your brother is smart and born. He is more handsome than you, taller than you, if our Ma family wants to keep a queen, who do you think we should keep?"

   Ma Chao: "..."

  He picked it up? Heartbroken!

Ma Yang said famously: "It's not because the father doesn't love you, and doesn't treat you as a son. It's because you two are brothers. The difference is really a hundred and eight thousand miles. For the father, it's not that a strong man cuts off his wrist, it's to save the lifeblood of the Ma family." , and shaved off a hair."

   Ma Chao subconsciously said, "Father, am I that hair?"

   Ma Yangming was very pleased and said: "You have made some progress after entering Beijing."

   Ma Chao: "..."

   Should he feel that this is a compliment or a scolding?

  Zhu Di and others were mighty, and when they arrived outside the study, suddenly, there was a burst of wild laughter in the study.

"Ha ha ha ha ha ha ha…"

   This sudden maniacal laughter shocked even Zhu Di.

  The guard at the back suddenly became nervous.

  Zhang Anshi subconsciously hid behind Zhu Di, poking his head out.

   Immediately afterwards, there was another burst of wild laughter: "Hahahahaha..."

  Zhang Anshi looked ashen, but he quickly adjusted his mentality.

  As for Ma Yangming and his son, they seemed to have heard Ma Yu's voice, and their faces were already grim.

   This laughter is obviously crazy. If you are not crazy, you can't laugh so loudly. Could it be... After entering the prison, you were beaten crazy?

  Zhu Di made a decisive decision and stepped in quickly. Zhang Anshi immediately grabbed him, followed by Hu Guang and Yang Rong.

  Of course, the other guards, as well as Ma Yangming and his son dressed as servants, were outside the door. One was afraid of recognizing them, and the other was to check for movement first.

  After Zhu Di entered the study, he saw that Ma Yu rolled up his long sleeves, exposed his arms, waving a letter in his hand, his eyes were red, his face was flushed with excitement, and he was walking quickly in the study.

  Zhu Di frowned, this is the champion?

  Zhang Anshi hurriedly exchanged glances with Zhu Di, full of grievances, as if to say: I really didn't hit him.

  Hu Guang and Yang Rong were calm and composed. They observed carefully without showing any signs of emotion.

   Seeing someone coming in, Ma Yu cheered up and recovered a little immediately.

  He looked up at Zhu Di, always feeling that Zhu Di looked familiar.

  During the palace examination, he had a chance to face the holy face, but no one dared to face the holy face, not to mention that Zhu Di was wearing a mian suit at that time, and his face was hidden behind the crown of the heavenly crown.

   Ma Yu immediately said: "I'm sorry, I'm very sorry, it was Ma who lost his composure just now, all distinguished guests, please, please sit down and talk."

  Although he tried his best to suppress his excitement, his voice was still trembling.

  Zhu Di took his seat calmly.

   Ma Yu smiled and said, "I don't know where you all come from, and what kind of business are you doing?"

   Zhu Di felt weird.

  Zhang Anshi easily dealt with the situation: "Sell the coffin."

   "Yeah." Ma Yu was only a little surprised, he seemed to be in a good mood, and he didn't show much surprise when he heard the word coffin.

  No matter what he sells, it is a business. As long as he can make money, it doesn't matter what he sells.

"It's good to sell coffins, it's good to sell coffins! I've heard that the four seas, especially the Western feudal states, have been fighting for years, and the victims of the wars hope to return to their hometowns for burial. The demand for this coffin is not small. The local Wood is not bad for making coffins, but everyone recognizes the coffins in my hometown. Even if you can’t live in Middle-earth, if you can use the coffins of Middle-earth, you can still comfort the heroic soul. The students saw a few brothers Yu Bufan, seeing you guys looking for students today, you really are real people, could it be that you want to use my boat to sell coffins? Hmm..."

He murmured, and actually eloquently said: "In my opinion, in Xinzhou, there are few people who die, but not in Java. Although King Zhao of Java often uses troops, there are too few Han people. As for Annan, Annan also No, Annan is connected to the inland of Daming, and there may have been merchants on the land route who transported my authentic coffin of Daming to sell it, and the competition is not small."

"In my opinion, Siam, Chenla and other places should be the best sellers. There are a lot of Han people there. What's more, in these two places, there are fierce conflicts with the natives, and many tourists die from foreign lands... It's just the routes to Chenla and Siam. Well...you wait, students take a look."

  Zhu Di: "..."

  Zhang Anshi: "..."

  ...

  Thank you for the reward from the leader of the classmate who wants to fall in love in the second year of middle school, I love you.
