Serving as a Jinyiwei, starting from plundering the swordsmanship talent

Chapter 75 Regret? Go to the underworld and regret it

"I see. It's a bodyguard mission."

Because he was targeted by the Qingyi Society's Xuan-level killer and was worried about accidents, he went to the Jinyiwei for help.

The Jinyiwei have the right to intervene in all matters, big or small, within the imperial city.

So there is no problem in asking the Jinyiwei to be responsible for this kind of thing.

I just didn't expect that this thing would happen to me.

"Actually, this matter was originally handled by other centurions."

Speaking of this, Si Nan is also quite strange.

"But for some reason, the Southern Governor-General specifically pointed out that you are responsible for this matter. Others say that it was the Southern Governor-General who took a liking to you and wanted to cultivate you."

"Cultivation?"

Others would think that Qi Yuanliang, the Southern Pacification Envoy, was impressed by Ye Liuyun's talent.

That's why I thought of arranging things for Ye Liuyun to do.

But Ye Liuyun would not have such a simple idea, especially when he thought about the situation when he saw the Southern Pacification Envoy at the Fanlou Auction not long ago, Ye Liuyun's eyes narrowed slightly.

"grown ups?"

Seeing Ye Liuyun suddenly fall silent.

Si Nan and Shi Sheng, who were standing by, looked over curiously.

"nothing."

shook his head.

Ye Liuyun didn't explain so much.

No matter what the Southern Pacification Envoy was planning to do, there was nothing to be afraid of. It was just a protection mission, wasn't it? It didn't matter at all.

,,,

I don’t know if he’s afraid of death or what.

The task was urgent, and that afternoon, a group of Jinyiwei led by Ye Liuyun protected the residence of the Minister of Revenue.

The patrols were carried out in groups of several people, and the area was surrounded tightly.

"No wonder they say the Ministry of Revenue is lucrative. It seems to be true."

The official position of the Minister of Revenue was not high, but not too low either.

Judging from the actual salary, the Minister of Revenue does not serve for many years in a year. But how many officials in the current dynasty really rely on salary to make a living?

The residence of the Minister of Revenue looks extremely luxurious from the outside, but it is impossible to afford such a house with salary alone.

The Ministry of Revenue is responsible for managing the imperial finances. It seems that this Minister of Revenue is quite corrupt.

"grown ups!"

At this moment, I remembered the gossip I had heard before.

Si Nan leaned close to Ye Liuyun's ear and said.

"I heard from others that the previous Minister of Revenue had his property confiscated three years ago. Do you know how much money was seized during that search?"

Not only Ye Liuyun, but also Shi Sheng on the other side looked over with curiosity.

It would be bad if other people heard this kind of talk.

So Si Nan could only speak in a low voice.

"I heard that the amount of silver alone, on the surface, exceeds 10 million taels."

This is just what is recorded on the surface. Someone must have taken away a portion of it during the house search, so the total amount must be much more.

"so much!"

Shi Sheng thought that he was not a greedy person, but even so, when he heard the figure of 10 million taels, he couldn't help but gasp.

"Then you think that the Ministry of Revenue is the most profitable place in our Daqian."

As he spoke, Si Nan raised his eyebrows at Shi Sheng slyly.

Inner sigh.

"It would be great if we could raid the homes of officials from the Ministry of Revenue someday."

The Ministry of Revenue does not have only one Minister of Revenue. Any small official who comes here, as long as he is from the Ministry of Revenue, will definitely get a lot of benefits.

"okay!"

Although Ye Liuyun was surprised that an official from the Ministry of Revenue could embezzle so much money, he did not care too much.

Don't worry, if I really need money, I will grab it.

"Let's go in and meet the Minister of Revenue first."

Since this case is about protecting the Minister of Revenue, we must first see what he looks like. Ye Liuyun said as he walked over.

Si Nan and Shi Sheng behind him stopped talking and followed Ye Liuyun.

only.

He had just walked through the front yard and had not yet entered the back yard when he was stopped by a man who looked like a butler.

"Stop, can you just come in here casually?"

The other party seemed somewhat arrogant in both his expression and tone.

The seventh-rank official in front of the prime minister's door.

Although the Minister of Revenue is not as powerful as the Prime Minister, the housekeeper in the mansion has also seen some of the world, and his attitude towards the Jinyiwei is not as humble as others.

How could I actually encounter such a clichéd plot where people look down on others?

Ye Liuyun was too lazy to talk nonsense and directly took out the centurion's token.

"W Jinyiwei Baihu Ye Liuyun, I am following orders,"

"I know what you do."

I thought that showing off the centurion's token would be enough to deter the other party.

only.

Before he could finish his words, he was interrupted.

The butler seemed to have known Ye Liuyun's identity for a long time, and his attitude remained arrogant.

"My master has ordered that you Jinyiwei only need to protect the outside, and no one is allowed to enter the backyard."

Ye Liuyun frowned.

Shi Sheng, who was standing aside, said with some dissatisfaction.

"If we don't go into the backyard, how can we protect him?"

"That's your own business."

The other party doesn't care at all.

"My master is the Minister of Revenue, and you are just a centurion. You should do whatever he does. Don't think I don't know what you are thinking."

Done.

He looked at Ye Liuyun with an expression that said 'I've seen through you'.

There was a disdainful smile on the corner of his mouth.

"If you're just trying to curry favor with my master because he holds a high position, take a good look at yourself and see if you're worthy of him."

"Just you, you think you can get close to my master?"

Ye Liuyun believed that many melodramatic plots only existed in novels and stories.

Now it seems that art does come from life.

Show your own value and make the other party regret to the point of crying bitterly? In comparison, Ye Liuyun would rather let the other party regret it in the underworld.

Therefore, Ye Liuyun did not have much emotional fluctuation from beginning to end.

He just looked at his opponent calmly, with one hand already on the hilt of the ink knife at his waist.

He's just a housekeeper, just kill him.

But this time.

"what happened?"

A familiar voice came.

The person who came was Qi Yuanliang, the Southern Pacification Envoy. At this time, Qi Yuanliang walked over with his usual gentle smile.

He seemed to be unaware of what was going on and sounded curious.

"Why are you all gathered here?"

"Your Excellency the Pacification Envoy!"

His attitude was completely different from when he faced Ye Liuyun and others. When facing Qi Yuanliang, the Southern Pacification Envoy, the steward's attitude suddenly became humble.

He is also a person who currys favor with the powerful.

Qi Yuanliang nodded first.

Then he looked at Ye Liuyun with a smile.

"Captain Ye, we parted hastily at the Golden Tower last time and haven't had the chance to contact each other since. I've always felt really sorry for this."
