Dong Rui looked at Xu He's facial expression. He could already confirm that Xu He was the one who rescued the bandit leader Yu Dayou. Moreover, Xu He should have been persuaded by him now and was just one step away from revealing Yu Dayou's hiding place.
Half a quarter of an hour passed. Under Dong Rui's excited eyes, Xu He breathed a sigh of relief and said: "Master Dong, since he is such an important thief, you must search hard and never let such a dangerous person escape. !”
"There's something wrong, what's the problem?" Dong Rui's experience didn't work for the first time.
"Master Xu really doesn't know where this person is hiding?" Dong Rui's face was already covered with frost!
Xu He shook his head and said, "If I knew, I would definitely tell Mr. Dong!"
The muscles on Dong Rui's face kept twitching, and he wanted to have an attack several times, but he finally endured it.
"Mr. Xu, let me tell you the truth. If it hadn't been for the instructions from the top, I would have used ten thousand ways to pry your mouth open today instead of standing here to understand you with reason and move you with emotion!" Dong Rui's gaze Like lightning, staring into Xu He's eyes.
Xu He smiled slightly and said: "Master Dong, you have helped me a lot, and I don't want to get into trouble with you. If you don't know, you just don't know. No matter who comes, I, Xu He, have the answer! Please don't think so either. I, Xu He, don’t know how to praise!”
When Dong Rui heard these words, his aura slowly calmed down like a sword unsheathed.
In this sentence, Xu He actually admitted in disguise that he had taken Yu Dayou in, but he also had some unavoidable reasons.
However, business matters must be business affairs, and personal relationships must be personal relationships. Xu He himself accepted Dong Rui's affection, and also told the people behind Dong Rui in disguise that he had no intention of going against him, but this time he had no choice but to do so.
Dong Rui is obviously a smart man, and he also understood the most obscure meaning of Xu He's words.
Suddenly, he smiled slightly, looked at Xu He thoughtfully and said: "Since the young master has already said such words, he must be really unclear. Anyway, Yu Dayou was lucky enough to escape out of the sea [on his own]. Ling, the matter has come to an end, and I still want to lead people to hunt him down, so I won’t disturb Mr. Xu anymore!”
After saying that, Dong Rui turned to leave.
Unexpectedly, Xu He said: "Master Dong, stay here!"
Dong Rui stopped and turned around slowly, staring at Xu He without speaking.
Xu He took out a hundred-tael silver note from his arms and handed it to Dong Rui.
Dong Rui was slightly startled and said: "Mr. Xu, don't you know what our Jinyiwei does? We openly bribe you, so aren't you afraid that I will arrest you and put you in jail?"
Xu He smiled and said: "Brother Dong, when you were on the boat, I heard your extraordinary conversation, and I knew that you were not an ordinary person. Plus, you have helped me so much and have connections with Xiao Hu Baihu. With this little money, I am the one who thanks Brother Dong. There is a financial friendship between friends, so there is no bribery!"
Dong Rui looked at the banknotes in his hand, with a faint smile on his lips.
One hundred taels, to him, was nothing to mention. Every time he went to the prisoner's house to arrest someone, let alone one hundred taels, he had seen a thick stack of one thousand taels.
But Xu He is a very interesting person, he doesn't have much money, and it's under such a delicate situation. I can only say that his gift was not intentional at all, and he really wanted to make friends.
Thinking of this, Dong Rui turned around and said with a smile: "Brother Xu, I understand your kindness!"
After saying that, he casually put the banknote in his arms and said with a smile: "Since Brother Xu regards me as a friend, I will also say a few heart-breaking words to you!"
"Brother Dong, please speak!" Xu He said seriously.
Dong Rui nodded: "Study hard and be an official in the future. Don't get involved with those monks. The power behind them is very powerful. If you are not careful, even Little Shi Gong can't protect you!"
Xu He nodded solemnly and said, "I would like to be taught!"
If Xu He still pretended to have nothing to do with the monk matter at this time, Dong Rui would immediately turn around and leave, never saying the following words again.
But seeing Xu He's sincere attitude, he said warmly: "When you write to Xiao Shigong, repeat what I said today to Xiao Shigong!"
Xu He's heart moved, and he remembered that Dong Rui had just mentioned that he had received an explanation from his superiors, and that's why he didn't take any serious action against him.
Climb the peak?
Could it be Jin Yiwei Lu...
Thinking of this, Xu He nodded and said: "Brother Dong, don't worry, I will tell uncle the whole story in detail about the mercy you just showed!"
Dong Rui knew that Xu He understood what he said, and then smiled and said: "When we were in Huai'an Mansion, I saw that you were quite close to Shen Xuan from Shenge's hometown in Songjiang?"
Xu He didn't know why he got involved with the Shen family again. He nodded and said, "Brother Zongqi, our relationship is pretty good!"
Dong Rui sneered and said: "Stay away from his house. His family is very dirty. Killing families is like drinking water. Don't get involved in anything, so as not to get implicated later!"
Xu He frowned and thought carefully about the meaning of Dong Rui's words. Has the emperor already noticed the Shen family?
No, the Shen family just took over the Xu family's business and helped the emperor run the private salt business. It was using the Shen family's place. How could they touch his family at this time?
But Dong Rui’s words are really scary to think about.
Seeing his silence, Dong Rui smiled and said: "It's getting late. If you come to Beijing in the future and you think highly of me, just call Hu Jianzhong and let's go out for a drink together!"
When Xu He heard this, he quickly gathered his emotions and bowed: "Thank you, Brother Dong!"
This "thank you", Xu He said sincerely, Dong Rui nodded and walked out of Xu's house.
Xu He was sent out, and he was seen standing outside the gate and whistling. Voices came out from all the lanes of Shisheng Street, and there were about forty people.
When Xu He saw this, cold sweat broke out on his back.
Dong Rui smiled, got on his horse, and left with the people!
Watching him go away, Xu He stood in front of the courtyard gate for a long time.
At this time, Wu Decao came to Xu He and whispered: "Lingsheng, Mr. Dong just said that the Shen family was silenced. Could he be talking about Zhou Tianxiong and the Zhou family?"
Xu He's eyes widened when he heard this, and he turned to look at Wu Decao.
Yes, the entire family of Zhou Yi and Ge Youli were killed when they were crossing the Yangtze River. Could it be that the Shen family did it?
But what is the relationship between the Shen family and thieves?
There are also Japanese pirates behind the bandits, are they also related to the Shen family...
No, Xu He quickly shook his head.
The more I think about this, the weirder it becomes, and the more I think about it, the less true it becomes.
Xu He said to Wu Decao: "Brother Yaochen, don't talk nonsense about this!"
After saying that, he walked into the courtyard, first comforted Mrs. Xie and Sister Gu, and then took Ding Ze directly to the academy.
Ding Ze opened the back door with the key, looked around, and then walked into the academy with Xu He.
As soon as he entered the courtyard, Xu He heard someone shout: "Who?"
Xu He heard his accent and thought, hey, don't tell me, he is from Fujian.
"it's me!"
Hearing Xu He's voice, a dark figure walked out of the darkness.
"This chapter is for book friend Mi Lao. Don't worry about finding your former brother. I have arranged these two days to thank you for your extravagant updates! It's too expensive! I don't know how to thank you other than being grateful!
Only then did I realize that my brother had come after him from "The Three-Star Store That Rejected Michelin"!
I saw your message at the end of that book!
Compare your heart!
(づ￣3￣)づ╭?～」
