Serving as a Jinyiwei, starting from plundering the swordsmanship talent

Chapter 163 Threaten me? Burn it all in one fire

"Look!"

Seeing Jiang Jing say this, Si Nan smiled and raised his eyebrows at Ye Liuyun.

Everything is ready.

I have to go again tonight, if for no other reason than to give those female demons a good lesson.

"Why don't you ask me?"

But this time.

Shi Sheng, who had also been practicing martial arts nearby, couldn't help himself at this moment.

He stopped practicing and looked over curiously.

I went there last night too.

Why did he only ask Jiang Jing and not ask for his own opinion?

"Forget about your aesthetic!"

Glancing at Shi Sheng who looked somewhat dissatisfied, Si Nan rolled his eyes in annoyance.

Ever since seeing the scene of Shi Sheng and Chai Hong from the Xihe Dynasty together, Si Nan was completely desperate about Shi Sheng's aesthetic taste.

"What happened to my aesthetics?"

But these words, which seemed to look down on him, made Shi Sheng a little dissatisfied.

Aesthetics? My own aesthetic is obviously normal.

Seeing that Shi Sheng still wanted to argue with him, Si Nan did not get angry.

He just shrugged and then asked back.

"Then tell me, what about those women last night?"

Si Nan's question made Shi Sheng think for a moment, and then he spoke seriously.

"It's just okay, too thin!"

Obviously, Shi Sheng still prefers someone who is stronger, like Chai Hong.

",,,"

Si Nan didn't say anything, but just gave Shi Sheng a cold look. With such aesthetic taste, how dare you argue with me about such a topic.

but.

Shi Sheng, the person involved, didn't think there was anything wrong with his words at all.

"All right!"

In response to this situation, Ye Liuyun just smiled and waved his hand.

Daily bickering is also a way to increase feelings, so Ye Liuyun naturally won't stop it, but now there are serious matters to discuss.

"Find me some cases in the next few days, preferably within the Imperial City."

You still have to do some superficial work.

If you are just slacking off, it will always be embarrassing if others find out.

"Yes, my lord!"

Si Nan would naturally not disobey Ye Liuyun's orders.

So after hearing this, he immediately nodded in response.

Ye Liuyun left directly and continued to look at the files. As for Shi Sheng and Jiang Jing, they continued to practice martial arts.

only.

After practicing for a while, Shi Sheng felt more and more uncomfortable, and couldn't help but ask Jiang Jing beside him.

“Is there really something wrong with my aesthetic?”

",,,"

You've left me a little unsure how to respond.

,,,

I thought such cases would be harder to find.

Unexpectedly, it took less than an hour for Si Nan to come over with a file.

"My Lord, what do you think of this case?"

As he spoke, he handed the file in his hand to Ye Liuyun.

After opening it and flipping through it, Ye Liuyun looked a little surprised.

The case happened in recent days. Several gambling houses in the west of the city were burned down by fire one after another. At first, they thought it was an accident, but after it happened many times, they realized that it was arson.

After all, if it was an accident.

It's impossible that there were several accidents in a row, and the fire happened in a gambling house.

However, if it was just a case of arson, it would not be reported to the Jinyiwei.

But I can't stand it.

Among these gambling houses, some have backgrounds. To be able to open a gambling house in a place like the Imperial City, and on a large scale, it would be impossible without some means and background.

The forces behind these gambling houses must have been angry, so they reported the case directly to the Jinyiwei, asking them to investigate who set the fire.

"Who is investigating this case now?"

Since the case has been going on for several days, someone must have taken it over.

"To answer your question, it's a captain under the pacification envoy Lei Zheng. He's been investigating for several days, but not only have they found nothing, but then there were fires in several gambling houses. I heard that captain has been scolded several times!"

Setting fire right under your nose.

It is normal for this thousand households to be scolded. I guess the psychological pressure is particularly great at this time.

"Tell him I'm taking over this case!"

I can use this case as an excuse so that I don’t have to go to the morning court for the next few days.

But a fire occurred at this time, and it was His Majesty's birthday soon, so he would probably be asked to solve the case as soon as possible.

"Yes, my lord!"

Hearing Ye Liuyun say this, Si Nan immediately responded and then went to do his work.

,,,

This captain under Lei Zheng.

I have been very busy for several days because of the gambling house fire.

If it's just an ordinary case, there's nothing wrong with delaying it.

But the most crucial thing is that the power behind these gambling houses is a marquis, and not an idle marquis. He was scolded several times and was required to catch the murderer within three days.

Otherwise you'll be tearing off this layer of skin from your body.

With Lei Zheng protecting him, although he won't lose his position as a thousand-householder, there will probably be some trouble.

"What the hell!"

The more I think about it, the angrier I get.

Is it because he doesn't want to catch anyone? It's obvious that he can't catch them.

After three days, I still have no clue what's going on. What the hell is going on?

Fortunately at this time.

A man came to report that Captain Si Nansi, under Lord Ye Liuyun, had arrived.

"My master has heard about the gambling house fire and is ready to take over the case. Do you plan to hand the case over directly to the master, or do you plan to work on it together?"

After coming over, Si Nan directly stated his purpose of this trip.

However, I don't mean to bring up this case directly with the other party. If they are willing, there is no problem in working on the case together.

But for this thousand-householder, such words were simply the sound of nature.

"Lord Ye wants to handle this case, so how can I refuse? Take it, take it!"

Finally, this hot potato was passed on.

As for working on the case together, Qianhu is now almost suffering from psychological trauma and doesn't want to touch this case at all.

"Somebody come!"

As he said this, he shouted and called his men over.

"Hurry up and bring all the files and information related to this case to Lord Ye!"

Although I didn't find any clues, I did organize a lot of files and information, regardless of whether they can be used or not.

Taking them all out is also a way of showing one's attitude.

Si Nan did not refuse this.

Since the other party gave him so much face, Si Nan naturally would not keep a stern face. Instead, he said a few polite and implicit words.

Everyone in the Jinyiwei knew that Ye Liuyun and Lei Zheng had a good relationship.

As a result, the relationship between them, as subordinates, is pretty good.

At least when they meet, they are polite and no one will deliberately offend anyone.

"Thank you, brother!"

"To be honest, Captain Si!"

The other party also said with gratitude at this time.

"Because of this case, I haven't had a good sleep for several days. If it weren't for Lord Ye, I really don't know what I would do. Thank you Lord Ye for me."

"If Lord Ye has time, I will hold a banquet for him at the Jiaofangsi!"

I heard someone was inviting us to a dinner at the Jiaofangsi.

Si Nan's eyes became much brighter.

A slap landed on the other person's shoulder.

"Don't worry, I will definitely tell the adults about this!"

,,,

The distribution within the imperial city is quite interesting.

There are the most inns and restaurants in the east of the city, most of the martial arts schools and escort agencies in the north, and some gambling houses and brothels in the west, all of which are distributed in an orderly manner.

When Ye Liuyun arrived with his men.

I saw a young man in fancy clothes standing outside a burnt gambling house, cursing without caring about his image.

"Waste! Waste! Are you all a bunch of waste?"

"With so many people, it's fine if you can't catch the arsonist, but don't you even know how to put out the fire?"

"And the Jinyiwei, they're also a bunch of useless people. So far, they haven't even seen the shadow of the arsonist."

"waste!"

It can be seen that he was really mad.

Both his own men and the Jinyiwei were scolded.

"grown ups!"

Seeing this scene, Si Nan on the side whispered to Ye Liuyun.

"This is Marquis Rong Gong, the owner of these gambling houses. Strangely enough, except for the first one or two, all the subsequent fires were caused by Marquis Rong Gong's gambling houses!"

Ye Liuyun had never heard of Rong Gonghou or anything like that.

But all the gambling houses that caught fire were run by this Rong Gong Hou, which is quite interesting. This means that the other party may not only be taking revenge on the gambling houses, but also on Rong Gong Hou.

"Marquis Ronggong had the merit of saving the emperor in his early years, so he was given the title of Marquis!"

It can’t really be called a credit for saving the emperor.

When the old emperor was in power, he had a hobby of hunting every year. During one hunting trip, the wild deer being hunted panicked and rushed directly towards the old emperor. Rong Gonghou, who was still the guard of the old emperor at that time, took action to kill the wild deer, so he got the credit.

But in fact.

With the old emperor's power, it would be no problem to deal with not only one wild deer, but even ten or a hundred of them.

All I can say is that whether you have made a contribution or not depends entirely on the old emperor's preference. If he says you have made a contribution, then you have made a contribution.

This is why.

The reason why there are so many marquis positions in the imperial city.

Rong Gonghou was a smart man. He knew that his title of marquis was just a title, so he used this identity to make a lot of money.

Not just a gambling house.

In the west of the city, Marquis Rong Gong also opened two or three brothels. Although they were not as successful as the Jiaofangsi, they were also doing very well.

I make a lot of money every year.

Using this money, Marquis Ronggong won over many people in the court.

That's why I say that.

The reason why Ronggong Hou is more powerful than other marquises.

Obviously, Si Nan had done his homework before coming here and described it in great detail. After listening, Ye Liuyun nodded with a look of understanding.

I understand.

"Jinyiwei!"

at this time.

After cursing for a while, Marquis Rong Gong finally noticed the Jinyiwei standing not far away.

The anger in my heart had not subsided much.

Seeing that these Jinyiwei not only did not do anything when they came, but stood aside and looked at each other, Rong Gonghou's anger became even stronger.

"You actually dare to come again? Where's that captain from last time? We asked him to come, but there's still no news. If we can't find out anything, even Lei Zheng can't protect him!"

Although Lei Zheng has General Yue Xiu behind him.

But he also has a lot of connections in the imperial city.

I can't deal with Lei Zheng, but it should be no problem to deal with a thousand households.

I just don't believe that Lei Zheng would really fight to the death with me just for a captain under his command.

"He can't come!"

Facing the angry gaze of Rong Gonghou, Ye Liuyun spoke calmly.

"From now on, I'll take over this case. If you have anything to say, just tell me!"

"you?"

Rong Gonghou also calmed down at this time.

He frowned and looked at Ye Liuyun.

Because he had never attended the morning court, although Rong Gonghou knew about Ye Liuyun and even heard some of his deeds,
But Marquis Rong Gong had never seen Ye Liuyun before, and didn't know what he looked like.

and so.

At this moment, Marquis Rong Gong still spoke to Ye Liuyun in an unfriendly tone.

"Who are you? What about that captain? Did you know you were incompetent, so you asked someone else for help?"

"I'm telling you, if any of my other gambling houses get burned down again, I'll definitely make sure you guys pay."

I am in danger.

Looking at the Rong Gonghou in front of him with a cold look and a threatening tone, Ye Liuyun laughed instead.

It seems that I haven't been threatened by anyone for a long time.

"You still dare to laugh?"

Seeing that Ye Liuyun not only showed no fear after hearing what he said, but even chuckled, this was somewhat difficult for Rong Gonghou to accept.

Eyes wide open.

What else do you want to say?

But at this time, Ye Liuyun had already looked at Si Nan standing aside.

"What other properties are here? Do they belong to this Rong Gong Hou?"

Having been with Ye Liuyun for such a long time, Si Nan knew his master's temper best.

and so.

When Ye Liuyun asked this question, Si Nan almost knew what his master was going to do.

Smile.

Without any hesitation, he pointed to several nearby gambling houses.

"This, this, and this, these are all the property of Marquis Ronggong!"

“That’s a lot!”

Following the direction of Si Nan, Ye Liuyun's face was also full of surprise.

It seems that most of the gambling houses in the west of the city are run by this Marquis Ronggong.

"Humph!"

Although he didn't know why Ye Liuyun asked this, after hearing this, Rong Gonghou nodded quite complacently.

"Since you know how powerful I am, why don't you hurry up and catch the arsonist for me!"

The property that was burned was nothing but a drop in the bucket for Marquis Rong Gong.

But you will still feel sad when you should. The richer you are, the more you will feel sorry for your money.

"It just so happens that you don't know me yet, so I'll let you get to know me now!"

Ye Liuyun smiled slightly.

"???"

Then, under the puzzled gaze of Rong Gonghou, Ye Liuyun waved to Si Nan beside him.

Si Nan understood and immediately patted Shi Sheng on the shoulder.

Some things, if you do them with your own ability, will always lack a little meaning.

"Ok?"

Shi Sheng was still a little unresponsive, and Si Nan whispered a few words in Shi Sheng's ear.

Shi Sheng nodded first.

Then he excitedly walked to the door of a gambling house owned by Rong Gonghou, and used all his strength to punch the door.

"Oh!"

With Shi Sheng's strength.

Not to mention a wooden door like this, even a heavy stone door could be shattered by a single punch.

Sawdust was flying everywhere.

There were still people gambling in the gambling house at that time. The sudden situation really scared everyone inside.

Without waiting for these people to react, Shi Sheng led his men and carried them out of the gambling house.

"What are you doing! What are you doing!"

"My money!"

"Hahahaha!"

Some were angry, but some were happy.

After all, he had just lost a bet, and being pulled out like this, doesn't that mean he doesn't have to pay?

"You, you guys!"

The most dumbfounded person at this moment would have to be Rong Gonghou, whose face was full of astonishment.

I didn't even know if I had seen it wrong. How dare they? How dare these Jinyiwei do this?

After dragging out everyone in the gambling house.

Shi Sheng simply set the gambling house on fire.

"Haha, I've been wanting to do this for a long time!"

Given Shi Sheng's personality, he had long disliked places like gambling houses, but he had never had the opportunity to go there before.

As expected, it is most enjoyable to work under adults.

"You are so brave!"

By the time Rong Gonghou reacted, the fire was about to completely engulf the gambling house.

He just started shouting.

"Put out the fire! Put out the fire!"

He quickly ordered some of his guards to put out the fire.

He turned his head, raised his finger and pointed at Ye Liuyun, and was about to say something harsh, but Ye Liuyun looked directly at Rong Gonghou and said with a smile.

"Didn't Marquis Rong Gong just say that if another gambling house caught fire, we'd be in trouble? I'd also like to know how Marquis Rong Gong plans to make us look bad."

Done.

Ye Liuyun spread his hands, as if to say, "Just do whatever you want now."

",,,"

But this answer made Rong Gonghou's eyes widen in disbelief.

and so.

Just because of this, you burned down one of my gambling houses?

No, aren’t young people nowadays so hot-tempered?
Isn't it easy to say such a threat? What, you just can't stand the slightest injustice?

Rong Gonghou now didn't know what to say. He was gasping for breath and constantly adjusting his breathing. If he didn't calm down, Rong Gonghou was really worried that he would be angry to death.

"call!"

It's a good opportunity to slow down.

Rong Gonghou then raised his hand and pointed at Ye Liuyun tremblingly.

"Yes, you have the guts! Tell me who you are!"

Revenge, revenge must be taken!

When have I ever been wronged like this?

What the hell, now even a Jinyiwei dares to jump on my face?

In Rong Gonghou's heart, he had even planned a way to take revenge on Ye Liuyun, and he must make the other party cry bitterly and regret it.

"Ye Liuyun!"

Looking at Rong Gonghou like this, Ye Liuyun still maintained a faint smile, with his hands behind his back, speaking in a slow and unhurried tone.

"Jinyiwei Southern Pacification Envoy, Ye Liuyun! If Ronggong Hou wants revenge, just come!"
