After Jin Miaomiao went out and closed the door of the main hall, the eyes of Shen Haolin and Shen Cha fell on Bai Meng.
"What do you want to say? Is it because I have to send Miaomiao away? Is it related to him?"
"I don't particularly want to get rid of her. I think it's good that she doesn't listen." Bai Meng waved her hand, "Although she grew up in the border area and in the Shen family, she is simpler than us and should listen less. Just order something messy like this! Besides, I’m really hungry and I really didn’t eat at noon.”
"What did you hear again?" Shen Cha frowned slightly and handed the snacks on his table to Bai Meng, "First, give me some cushion."
"Thank you, Xiaocha." Bai Meng took a bite of the snack and swallowed it with the tea, "It's still the same Yan Yuan. My people found out that he owed a lot of money outside, and debt collectors came to his door several times. His neighbors have seen it several times. Yan Yuan's popularity is indeed bad enough. When his family is in such trouble, no one takes care of it. If the soldiers patrolling the Soldiers and Horses Division hadn't seen it, I'm afraid they would have to wait for that A group of people beat Yan Yuan to death, so someone would report the crime! The people from the Bingma Division caught the gangsters and recruited them without torture. Their purpose was to get money, and they didn't have to put Yan Yuan in harm's way. Damn it, if Yan Yuan dies, their money will be wasted."
"Just holding a few banquets shouldn't make me so embarrassed." Shen Cha frowned slightly, "What else did he do?"
"It's just the kind of drama that their literati like, the drama of a beautiful woman loving a talented man." Bai Meng quickly cleared away the snacks on the plate and took two more sips of tea. "A regular customer of Jiaofangsi spends a lot of money and doesn't even have an eyebrow." Wrinkled. None of this is important. What is important is that he told those gangsters nonsense, saying that he had a great hero uncle who was very rich. As long as his uncle returned to Xijing, his foreign debts would not be a problem. "
"So, he is so impatient to invite Uncle Yan back to the capital, just to kick Uncle Yan into this huge pit." Shen Cha sneered, "Our efforts in every possible way and Uncle Yan's own unwillingness have destroyed his little life." Conspiracy, that’s why he’s so irritable.”
"It's quite unlucky to have such a junior in Uncle Yan's stall." Shen Haolin shook his head, "Where is Yan Yuan's brother? Don't you care?"
"Split the sect, split the family!" Bai Meng sighed, "His brother has seen it clearly. He knows that his younger brother is a disaster. He should get out of this quagmire for a day and worry about it, so as not to be implicated by him. If he My brother is still here, do you think he remembers Uncle Yan?"
"Where are those debt collectors?" Shen Cha touched his chin, "Are they being held in custody by the Criminal Department? Do you know who is behind them?"
"They are all being held in the Ministry of Justice, and not one of them has escaped!" Bai Meng nodded, "They are the servants of King Dai. I even went to see King Dai specifically. He said he knew about this. I heard from my family that Mr. Yan's Life was very difficult, and he came to ask for help. His family felt sorry for him, so they lent him money. The prince also said that Mr. Yan took the initiative to write an IOU and agreed on the time and amount of repayment. He only knew If something like this happens, he doesn’t take it to heart anymore. He never cares about such trivial matters, it’s the people around him who are responsible for handling it.”
"Uncle Dai Wang..." Shen Haolin spread his hands helplessly, "Did he tell you that? That he doesn't care about these things?"
"Yes!" Bai Meng looked at Shen Haolin curiously, "Is there any problem?"
"There is a high probability that this matter was dug by Uncle Wang for Yan Yuan." Shen Cha added enough water to the tea stove, turned to look at Bai Meng, and explained, "You also know that the Jiaofang Secretary has been Uncle Wang is in charge of everything, and Yan Yuan always hangs around in his territory when there is nothing wrong. It is very easy to know Yan Yuan's situation."
"But why did the acting prince do this?" Bai Meng still didn't understand, "Is there a grudge?"
"There is a grudge, a big grudge! He and Uncle Yan are close friends. They grew up together. The ridiculous things that Uncle Yan did when he was young were always inseparable from the presence of the prince. The two were inseparable until... Uncle Yan left. Xijing, follow Shen Jiajun to Jiaping Pass City."
Shen Haolin sighed softly and said, "Even so, the two of them have not lost contact. Among the things we send to Beijing every year, there are things that Uncle Yan prepares for Uncle Wang. Song Jue's return gift There are also things Uncle Wang gave to Uncle Yan, and Uncle Yan once said that Uncle Wang tried his best to prevent him from coming back."
"What do you two mean...that Prince Dai dug such a big hole for Yan Yuan in order to vent his anger on Uncle Yan?"
"What else? After thinking about it, it can only be like this. Since it is Uncle Wang's handiwork, we should not care about it, so as not to ruin Uncle Wang's plan. When we meet Uncle Wang later, we will also ask for specific details. It depends on the situation." Shen Cha looked at Bai Meng, "Go back and send the person back to Uncle Wang. He is obviously a good person, but he still has to pretend to be a fool. It's not easy!"
"Okay!" Bai Meng sighed, "Since the prince doesn't like him and wants to torment him to death, then I won't care about it and do whatever you want! However, uncle is back again, and Yan Yuan is also It's unfortunate enough that he can't make anyone hate him, but he has to make his majesty and the acting prince hate him together. What else is this if he is not seeking his own death?"
"Unfortunately, Yan Yuan didn't know it himself, and he was quite crazy!" Shen Haolin smiled, "People who do evil will not survive."
"By the way, Wanyanxi has settled down?" Shen Cha heard the footsteps coming from outside, raised his chin towards Bai Meng, and motioned for him to open the door, "Are you still honest?"
"It's still very honest. Even if he has other thoughts, it's useless. Although our place is no better than the Shen family, it's impossible to run away." Bai Meng got up from the ground and walked slowly to the door. When he opened the door, he saw Jin Miao Miao brought a tray over, and he quickly reached out and took it, "Thank you for your hard work, Sister Miao Miao."
"The commander-in-chief's mouth is getting sweeter and sweeter!" Jin Miaomiao waved her hands and walked in. "What were you talking about just now? Why can't you run away?"
"Ask Wanyanxi if he is very well-behaved." Shen Cha waved to her, "There are quite a lot of things at home, right? If not, let them buy them."
"No need to buy it. It is estimated that the palace will send you something soon." Bai Meng said while eating his noodle soup, "Your Majesty and the Queen Mother have prepared a lot of things and said that they will send them to you when you have settled in." Come." He looked at Shen Haolin and then at Shen Cha, "I haven't asked you yet, what did Liu Shuai say when he saw you? His Majesty recommended Hua Yao to him before, but he never gave a reply or said anything. I want it, but I didn’t say no. I don’t understand what the old man is thinking. If he doesn’t want Hua Yao, he will probably have to let you two take him away."
"agreed."
"Ah?" The noodles in Bai Meng's mouth almost spit out, "Why did he agree when you two came back? It took me half a month to talk!"
"I agree!" Shen Cha nodded, gave Shen Haolin a cup of hot tea, stood up and walked slowly in the hall. She sat for a long time and her waist felt uncomfortable. While strolling, she gently beat her waist, "He said that if Hua Yao fails to meet his requirements, he will do whatever he wants. He asked us not to plead for mercy. We agreed." She walked to Bai Meng In front of him, "One more thing, how is the situation with Grand Master Hua?"
"It's not particularly good. After Hua Yao came back, he became ill. It has been so many days and he has not recovered." Bai Meng raised an eyebrow, "As for whether he is really ill or pretending to be ill, that is a matter of opinion and wisdom. Wisely, I’m more inclined to feign illness myself.”
"It may be that he is scared. The old things from many years ago have been unearthed, and it is possible that he is afraid of being blamed. He is also worried about his son and himself. He is going to fight at such an old age. Think about it. It's unbelievable, and fear is possible." Shen Cha stood at the door, watching Ying Shisan running over in a hurry, "Slow down, what's wrong?"
"Boss!" Ying Shisan ran to Shen Cha and stood in front of him, "Hua Yao wants to see you!"
