Perhaps the result came so easily that he looked in disbelief.
Of course, the officials who followed Zhu Di all looked meaningful.
Even Jin Zhong, who was most partial to Zhang Anshi, glanced at Zhang Anshi meaningfully.
This is really lacking in virtue.
After being missing for so many days, what a coincidence that Ma Yu's father was found when the trouble reached the heavens.
Also said that Jin Yiwei had already captured Ma Yu?
Seeing that things couldn’t be contained, he might as well have found it again!
Jin Zhong thought like this, and the rest of the people probably had the same thoughts.
Ma Yu smiled and said, "I wonder where you are from and what kind of business you are doing?"
In addition, a dozen clerks, several accounting clerks, and some clerks were hired.
After Ma Yu said that, he lowered his head, took advantage of this opportunity, took the shopkeeper's letter from the slip, and began to open it and read it.
As far as Zhang Anshi is concerned, this Ma Yu is most likely not a good person. He must have a purpose in hiding his whereabouts. Maybe he came here to target Zhang Anshi and clearly wanted to frame Zhang Anshi.
………………
But at this moment, everyone remained silent, as if watching how you performed.
Zhu Di said casually: "Then where is the person?"
His eyes seemed to be flashing with something, his lips were trembling, and the hand holding the letter was trembling slightly.
"Master, a mail ship has returned from Luzon, bringing many letters. There is also news about our fleet."
After saying that, he said to Ma San: "Go and serve tea."
Ma Chao subconsciously said: "Dad, am I that one hair?"
Ma Yangming was very pleased and said: "You have made some progress since entering Beijing."
"This..." Chen Li hesitated and said: "The Jin Yiwei are responsible for guarding the night, reconnaissance and arrest, and the responsibilities of the prison. They usually target those who rebel against the party and rebellious ministers. There is a missing person in the capital...
If there is an edict in the palace, or there is a minister
It is okay for the Tiqi to search for help. However, it is indeed not within the scope of responsibilities to search for the lost person rashly. His Highness has already made it clear that Wei Li will only do what is within his responsibilities and should not easily interfere with other affairs to avoid being harmed by others.
Right and wrong are words."
If Zhang Anshi didn't refuse, then maybe Zhang Anshi was really innocent and he would get to the bottom of it.
Zhu Di felt weird.
Ma Chao: "..."
During the palace examination, he had a chance to face the saint, but no one dared to face the saint directly, not to mention that Zhu Di was wearing a crown robe and his face was hidden behind the crown of the Heavenly Crown.
Chen Li glanced at Zhang Anshi, and he knew in his heart that he could only bear the thunder at this time. If he didn't stand up and explain to Ma Yangming, then His Highness would have to respond in full view of the public.
This letter is related to my life. It took nearly a year of planning and countless efforts, and now it may really bear fruit.
The leader is Zhu Di.
But here, on the walls of the study, there are all paintings and calligraphy by famous artists purchased at high prices. I just wish that the person who signed the inscription and postscript was as big as a bucket. If a visitor comes to visit, they will know that these calligraphy and paintings must be expensive.
Very.
So his eyes flashed and he said hurriedly: "My son has always been honest and true to his duty..."
Zhu Di looked at Chen Li and then at Zhang Anshi.
So Chen Li said without hesitation: "This is his business. What does he think in his heart, and what does it have to do with Jin Yiwei? Why don't you ask him yourself?"
Zhu Di made a quick decision and stepped in quickly. Zhang Anshi immediately rushed in, followed by Hu Guang and Yang Rong.
Seeing someone coming in, Ma Yu cheered up and immediately recovered a little.
Ma Chao said in shock: "I... I don't dare. His Majesty will behead us. He doesn't know how to deal with us later. If we make trouble now, wouldn't it be... wouldn't it be..."
"Yeah." Ma Yu was just slightly surprised. He seemed to be in a good mood, and when he heard the word coffin, he didn't show much surprise.
No matter what he sells, it's all business. As long as he can make money, it doesn't matter what he sells.
Chen Li said: "It was found by a hundred households in Qixia. The identity is being confirmed and identified, and now it is being followed. Humble does not make people act rashly, it is just worried... to scare the snake, no, no, it is not to scare the snake, Humble is afraid...
"
In such a huge group of people, Ma Yangming and his son lowered their heads and hid at the back, keeping their faces low.
As for Ma Yangming and his son, they seemed to have heard Ma Yu's voice, and their faces turned miserable.
The guards at the back suddenly became nervous.
Which person, after studying hard for more than ten years in Hanchuang, finally achieved fame and fame, but then gave up everything and lived like an ordinary person?
You must know that in the Ming Dynasty, Hanlin was the master of men and was the ultimate dream of all scholars.
This answer obviously does not convince the public.
Ma Yu frowned and said, "Many businessmen are still rude."
Ma Yu cheered up and said, "Go and invite me."
At this moment, the concierge ran over and said, "Sir, there are some merchants coming to see you outside."
Hu Guang and Yang Rong were calm and composed. They observed carefully and kept their expressions.
Zhang Anshi said: "Your Majesty, you have forgotten that you were the chief envoy to Jiangxi..."
He pondered, and actually gushed, saying: "In my opinion, in Xinzhou, there are few tourists, but in Java, although the King Zhao of Java often uses troops, there are too few Han people. As for Annan, Annan is also
No, Annan is connected to the interior of the Ming Dynasty. There may have been overland merchants who transported my authentic coffins from the Ming Dynasty for sale, so the competition is not small."
"In my opinion, Siam, Chenla and other places should be the best sellers. There are already many Han people there, not to mention the fierce conflicts with the natives in these two places, and many people have died in foreign lands... It's just that those who go to Chenla and Siam
As for the route...just wait a minute, let the students take a look."
Although he tried his best to suppress his excitement, his voice was still trembling.
But the ways of merchants are different. Merchants are very mobile and there is no such thing as being famous for many years. People can only judge your worth through your food, clothing, housing and transportation, so you need to live in a mansion, wear beautiful clothes, and have a certain style.
Enough pomp and circumstance.
He even specially arranged his own study room. In the past, he didn't care about antique calligraphy and painting. He always felt that antique calligraphy and painting were only things that arty people liked. A real scholar would at most post a few pieces of his own cursive calligraphy, or a gift from a friend.
The calligraphy that came is enough.
Of course, if something goes wrong along the way, it means that he will lose all his money and all his hard work will be in vain.
Ma Sanzheng arrived at the study of the rented mansion with a stack of letters in his arms.
Zhang Anshi, however, dealt with the situation easily: "Selling coffins."
Many businessmen in Qixia have become rich overnight. After all, there are too many opportunities in Qixia. There are many people who have become rich overnight. They often like to go straight to the point and are not polite.
He has been in Jinyiwei for a long time and knows how serious this matter is. Jinyiwei cannot interfere with this matter. If he does, it will not be explained clearly even if it is reasonable.
His son is the number one scholar, so he cannot bear the responsibility of being lost. After all, he has been kidnapped. This is passive. To take the initiative to run away, hide his name and resign, which is tantamount to truly disregarding his own future and behaving badly.
Zhu Di asked again: "Where is the person?"
Ma Chao whispered: "Dad..."
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 have been stupid since you were a child, and your brother is also smart and smart.
She is more majestic and taller than you. If our Ma family wants to keep a queen, who do you think we should keep?"
Ma Yu immediately said: "I'm sorry, I'm very sorry, it was Ma who lost his temper just now. Dear guests, please, please sit down and talk."
He waited for Zhang Anshi's reaction. If Zhang Anshi refused, it meant that Zhang Anshi must have something in his heart. He, the emperor, simply used the donkey under the slope to cut through the mess with a quick knife and settle the matter.
"I didn't have a name card, I just said I came to see you."
Zhu Di felt disgusted when he saw everyone's expressions like this.
Dozens of servants have been hired in this mansion, and there are even four coachmen on call at any time. The carriages are all made in Qixia Workshop, they are expensive, gorgeously decorated and very comfortable.
Chen Li immediately interrupted: "I have checked and found out that this person has been living in seclusion there for more than half a year. No one has ever coerced him, and his life is no different from that of ordinary people."
Ma Chao could only say: "Oh, oh, oh."
This mansion occupies a large area, and Ma Yu spent a lot of money to rent it.
Oh, yes, there are also Hu Guang and others, and even Ma Yangming and his son.
Chen Li was at a loss for words.
He read it very seriously. After all, letters are not easy, and they are related to his life and fortune. Looking carefully, he muttered in a low voice at first, but then, he froze.
Zhu Di was dressed in regular clothes at this time, Zhang Anshi was also dressed as an ordinary merchant, and there were several guards behind him.
Seeing that the two were arguing, Zhu Di turned back to look at the ministers.
Did he pick it up? It hurts my heart!
Immediately afterwards, there was another burst of laughter: "Hahahahaha..."
When the time comes to call this person, it will be hard to tell if this guy bites Zhang Anshi.
Who was Zhu Di? He couldn't help but glance at Zhang Anshi suspiciously.
On the surface, these people are silent and seem docile, but in fact, they seem to have an understanding expression, as if they are conveying something.
Ma San held the letter and put it on the desk. Ma Yu looked overjoyed, his eyes flashed, and he hurriedly said: "Arrived successfully?"
Zhang Anshi subconsciously hid behind Zhu Di and poked his head out.
Of course... Although Ma Yu feels out of place with such people, there is something he likes about them, that is, these people give money happily, and it may only take a few sticks of incense to finalize a deal, and they actually give money.
After Zhu Di heard this, he suddenly understood and said: "Okay, let's just find out the truth today!"
Because there are a large number of merchants here, the rent is expensive.
Zhu Di and others arrived outside the study in great numbers, and suddenly, there was a burst of laughter in the study.
Ma Yangming said: "You know nothing. Since An Shi said he wanted to wear casual clothes, there must be some conspiracy. Let's make a plan first, and later... act according to my eyes."
Ma Yu looked excited. This batch of ten ships had just been launched. Not to mention that he had a large number of shares in these ten ships. What was important was that the goods of these ten ships, these goods
, I mortgaged my life and property, and once it is successfully delivered, and because it is the first batch of goods, it will definitely be sold at a good price.
Zhang Anshi naturally sensed the deep meaning in so many looks. He felt a little unfair that he really didn't kidnap anyone. Now that the person was found, it seemed that he was really involved in Ma Yu's disappearance.
Ma Yangming said: "He doesn't want to be the number one scholar, nor does he want to compile the Hanlin Academy given by the imperial court, but he wants to live in seclusion here. Do you believe these words?"
Zhang An's world was dull, but he quickly adjusted his mentality.
But if this Ma Zhuangyuan is kidnapped, the situation will be different. He was not arrested in the first place, but now he is being taken into custody by the Jinyi guards. What is going on?
"Later..." Ma Yangming continued in a very low voice, inaudibly: "No matter what, you must clear your brother's innocence for resigning. It is not easy for him to get a meritorious title. If it is a last resort, you
Just kneel down and cry for me, make trouble for me, and look at my eyes."
Zhu Di took his seat calmly.
This reason makes sense.
After Zhu Di entered the study, he saw Ma Yu rolling up his long sleeves, exposing his arms, waving a letter in his hand, his eyes red, and the blood on his face rising with excitement, walking quickly in the study.
However, Zhu Di himself didn't live up to expectations. He also felt that... everyone knew that there was most likely... something fishy about this, and it probably had something to do with Zhang Anshi.
At this moment, a group of people hurriedly came in from outside.
Zhu Di frowned and said, "Why didn't I find it before, but why did I find it all at once today?"
Chen Li hurriedly said: "In the alley near the dock."
Chen Li said: "Your Majesty, I heard that the number one scholar was missing, and Your Highness the Duke paid special attention to it, so I worked hard with the guards to search for him, and I found him."
He shouted loudly, which frightened Ma Chao, who was behind Ma Yangming, to shake his hands and hurriedly carefully remove the flag.
There are indeed too many strange things in it.
Ma Yangming said: "It's not that I don't love you as a father and don't treat you as my son. It's actually that you two brothers are thousands of miles apart. As a father, this is not a strong man cutting off his wrist. This is to preserve the lifeblood of the Ma family."
, shave off a hair.”
His eyes seemed to say, you kid, have you really done such an immoral thing?
Ordinary scholars will catch them as soon as they are caught, but this is the damn number one scholar!
Zhu Di still wanted to protect Zhang Anshi in his heart, so he couldn't help but feel a little upset, so he shouted angrily: "Put this under the flag."
There were originally not many residential houses here at Qixia Wharf, and mansions occupying a large area were even rarer.
"It's good to sell coffins, it's good to sell coffins! I heard that the four seas, especially the Western vassal countries, have been fighting for years, and the war dead hope that they can return to their hometowns for burial. The demand for these coffins is not small, and the local people
Wood is not bad for making coffins, but people recognize the coffins from my hometown more
Mu, even if you can't be in the land of Middle-earth during your lifetime, if you can use the coffin of Middle-earth, you can still comfort the soul of the hero. The students have seen that these brothers are extraordinary. I saw you here today to find the students. You are really a person. Is it possible?
, do you want to use my boat to sell coffins? Hmm..."
Ma Chao said in confusion: "Why is this?"
This laughter is obviously crazy. If you weren't crazy, you wouldn't laugh so loudly. Could it be that... you were beaten crazy after being imprisoned?
Anyway, the person has been found. Someone has been keeping an eye on him for a long time, and the Jin Yiwei has not moved a hair. Even if someone wants to take this opportunity to blame His Highness, there will be no reason at all.
Except for the emperor, this is the top of the pyramid, which means a bright future.
But Zhu Di remained silent. He just waited for Chen to bow before saying, "Did you find it so quickly?"
But Ma Yu still spent a lot of money and moved in without hesitation.
Ma Yangming glanced at him secretly and said, "Stop yelling, don't let others see you, lower your head."
And scholars are precisely the envy of ordinary soldiers and civilians.
The father and son murmured quietly, dressed like servants, very inconspicuous.
Of course, the other guards, including Ma Yangming and his son dressed as servants, were outside the door, partly because they were afraid of being recognized, and partly because they wanted to see what was going on first.
Should he think this was a compliment or a scolding?
All the ministers looked meaningful.
This sudden wild laughter even shocked Zhu Di.
Zhang Anshi said: "Your Majesty, I think... this is very good, but... I think... going there with such a big fanfare may not be able to find anything..."
Zhang Anshi said: "Instead of investigating openly, it is better to conduct a secret investigation."
This is a really good question, and one that everyone here wants to know.
Zhang Anshi hurriedly exchanged glances with Zhu Di, full of grievances, as if to say: I really didn't do this.
"Secret visit?" Zhu Di looked at Zhang Anshi suspiciously.
He is an old boy. Although he has not seen much of the world, he is also very familiar with human nature.
Ma Yu now has some stable merchants here. Now that he heard someone coming to visit, he immediately became energetic: "Do you have a famous post?"
Ma Chao: "..."
"We should have arrived successfully. Shopkeeper Liu who led the team also has a letter. I am afraid he wants to give the young master some news. Look, his letter is here..."
Zhu Di frowned, is this the number one scholar?
Zhang Anshi had already figured out these tricks of scholars, and they were all very insidious and cunning.
However, the horse was anxious to become famous and his son was found, but here they have cut off all ties.
He raised his head and glanced at Zhu Di, feeling that Zhu Di looked a little familiar.
"Hahahahahahaha..."
Zhu Di said: "Since you are here, you can tell at a glance if you go and take a look. Right, Zhang Qing's family."
He gradually began to understand the psychology of those merchants. The interaction between scholars was the kind where you knew that his family owned a lot of land, and he also knew that your family owned a lot of land. After all, most of the gentry's ancestors lived in a certain place. As long as
Just tell your name and people will immediately know your worth, so you don't need to be flamboyant. Instead, the more low-key the better. When people see you, they will praise you for your magnanimity and your ability to run a household.
Zhu Di: "..."
Zhang Anshi: "..."
…………
Thank you to the leader of my classmate who also wants to fall in love in the second grade of junior high school for the reward. I love you.
