Chapter 1706 Inadvertently planting willows and willows
But at this moment, when he saw him falling to the ground, his face was overjoyed. The man who took out the rope and was about to trap his legs suddenly became startled, and then he also fell to the ground.
Seeing one of his companions fall to the ground, the other three people hurriedly turned around. Yin Chang also raised his head and looked up. In his eyes, he saw five or six big men holding sticks in their hands, knocking the three people on the back of their heads.
How can the most fragile part of a human body withstand being hit by a stick? Especially these five or six big men who seemed to not care about their life or death at all. The attacks were ruthless and heavy. The three of them were hit hard and they all fell to the ground.
Can't get up.
"How dare you do such a thing in broad daylight and accuse the Ming envoy's entourage. You really deserve to die." At this time, such a sentence came from behind five or six big men, and then a young man about twenty years old came.
The man appeared in front of Yin Chang. Yin Chang took a serious look at him and saw that although the clothes he was wearing were not expensive and his expression and movements were carefree, Yin Chang could still tell at a glance that he must be a child of a noble family.
"Thank you very much, brother. I am the envoy of the Ming Dynasty following Li Xu. I wonder what your name is?" Yin Chang struggled to stand up and said.
"It's easy to talk to, no need to thank you. I'm not used to using this method to extort people's money. If you don't see it, just pay it back. Now that you have seen it, of course you have to take care of it. Besides, you are from the Ming Dynasty, and you can blackmail people.
How can this be done on the head of the Ming envoy? Wouldn’t it make the people of the Ming look down on us Koreans? That’s even more important. As for my surname, there is nothing to say. My name is Quan Xiu, and I am Ben Guan Andong.
." the man said.
"Thank you, Brother Quan, for your help. Without Brother Quan's help today, even if the grievances can be cleared in the end, it will be very troublesome, and there may be some bad messages. So I still want to thank Brother Quan." Yin Chang saluted him again.
.Quan Xiu quickly said not to worry.
Yin Chang said a few words to him, glanced at the four strong men lying on the ground, and then at the shivering woman hiding aside, and asked: "Brother An, how should we deal with these people?"
"Just leave it to me." Quan Xiu said nonchalantly: "Although I don't have much weight in the clan, at least I have acquaintances in Seoul Mansion and Yijin Mansion. Solving this matter is very simple."
Yin Chang thanked him again and looked down at the clothes he was wearing. The clothes he was wearing were made of good quality materials. Even after fighting and tearing like that just now, they were not damaged at all, but they were also a lot dirty and wrinkled in some places.
.If he had fought off a few strong men and escaped alone, he would naturally not have stayed outside; but now that he had the right to help, he smiled and said: "Brother Quan, I still need a little help from brother Quan. I need help from my lower body."
This dress is wrinkled and torn in some places, please lend me a piece of clothing, Brother Quan."
"It's nothing. It just so happens that I always carry an extra coat with me on weekdays, so I'll lend it to you." Quan Xiu said, turning his head to signal to a servant. The expression on the servant's face was somewhat reluctant.
But he still took off the baggage behind him and took out a piece of clothing.
'He actually brought an extra piece of clothing with him when he went out?' Yin Chang was puzzled. When he took over the clothing, he saw that the material of the clothing was actually better than the one Quan Xiu was wearing, and he suddenly realized: 'It must be
He usually gets into fights when he goes out, but his family is not very wealthy, but his elders are very respectable, so every day he puts on good clothes when he goes out and puts on bad clothes, and then puts on good clothes before going home.'
Thinking of this, Yin Chang hurriedly declined and said: "Brother Quan, you can just lend me a servant's clothes. There is no need to borrow such good clothes."
"It's okay." Quan Xiu said with a smile: "Brother Li probably saw that I brought a good dress? Brother Li doesn't have to be like this, I don't care. It's okay to lend you this dress. Today I am
I have done good deeds and saved the Ming Dynasty's envoy. My parents at home will not blame me. You can just wear it."
Of course Yin Chang resisted again, but Quan Xiu just asked him to wear it, but Yin Chang couldn't do it and could only change his clothes.
However, he did not express his gratitude to Quan Xiu again. He always felt that it was enough to say thank you once or twice, and the most important thing was how he acted. Since he had made up his mind to repay Quan Xiu, he would not say more words.
.
After he finished changing his clothes, he left the house with Quan Xiu and others. A few people stayed behind to deal with the follow-up matters. Quan Xiu invited Yin Chang to have a drink with him. Yin Chang thought that it would be okay to have a drink, besides
He was already thirsty, so he agreed to go into a nearby tavern with him.
There is nothing much to say about the situation in the tavern, which is similar to the taverns Yin Chang had seen in Daming. It was already dinner time, and people who had some spare money but were not too wealthy were sitting in the tavern in small groups.
He was drinking and talking loudly, making it very noisy.
"That's the bad thing about Koreans. I don't know if they are drunk or crazy. People who are usually gentle and elegant seem to be different people after drinking. They make a lot of noise." Yin Chang thought again.
Just as he was thinking about it, Quan Xiu, who was dragging him into the tavern, stopped and boasted to the person in front of him: "I saved a person today, and he was an envoy from the Ming Dynasty."
"You can still save people? And you're an envoy from the Ming Dynasty? That's not how you brag, right?" "That's right, if you want to save people, it's only because you want to take advantage of them because they have money. But you want to find someone to take advantage of.
We shouldn't have brought him to this tavern, we should have taken him to the best restaurant in the city." Everyone said one after another.
Hearing these words, Quan Xiu's face turned red, probably because he had finally done something good and was still being suspected by his friends. He was upset. He pulled Yin Chang hard and asked him to stand in front of his friends, and said to him: "Tell me, tell me,
Did I just save you? Are you also an envoy from the Ming Dynasty?"
'Even if you are eager to prove yourself in front of your friends, isn't it offending people by talking like this? No wonder you were born in the Andong Quan family, but you are still hanging out on the street. If I were your elder, I would not dare to let you in the government.
Become an official.' Yin Chang said with a wry smile. But he had just been rescued by Quan Xiu, so naturally he wanted to save face for him. Following the etiquette of Ming officials, he said in Chinese: "I am the envoy of Ming Dynasty, following Li Xu. I have met all the gentlemen. Just now.
Mr. Quan indeed saved me."
"Look, is it Daming? Did I save him?" Quan Xiu said hurriedly.
"Either you can speak Chinese or you are from the Ming Dynasty." One person said this and asked Yin Chang a question in a rather aggressive tone. Yin Chang was not very happy, but he still answered. Others showed surprise in their eyes.
Se: I thought it was Quan Xiu who randomly brought in someone who knew Chinese, but I didn’t expect that he was actually from the Ming Dynasty. He also asked questions one after another, and Yin Chang answered them one by one.
"Brother, I am indeed from the Ming Dynasty. I was just rude." Someone bowed and saluted. Others also believed Yin Chang's identity and apologized one after another. However, some people were sincere, while others were perfunctory at first sight.
Just a matter.
Yin Chang didn't care. He sat down, took a sip from his wine glass, and chatted casually with them. Quan Xiu and his friends were both unappreciated children of two classes of noble families. They went to the Ming Dynasty to see the world, even as followers.
It is impossible for them to have a share. He was very curious about Daming and wanted to ask Yin Chang. Yin Chang also answered one by one. Quan Xiu was happy and bought two pieces of mutton from the store and placed them in front of himself and Yin Chang. Of course Yin Chang did not
He would be polite and answer their questions while eating. Sometimes he would also ask a few questions about North Korea, and these poor people would also answer them one after another.
They chatted for more than an hour. It was almost midnight, and everyone in the tavern had already dispersed. Only then did they stop talking and dispersed.
Seeing that everyone had left, Yin Chang hurriedly picked up the teapot and poured water down his throat. He had been talking for more than an hour without stopping, and his voice was almost hoarse. He felt like smoke was coming out of his throat.
After drinking a whole pot of water, he felt it was not enough, so he asked for another pot and drank half of it before he felt better.
"They always hear people at home who have been to the Ming Dynasty say how wonderful and prosperous the Ming Dynasty is. They have long wanted to see it, but they can't go. So when they see a person from the Ming Dynasty, and he is an official, they can't help but ask
There are too many." Quan Xiu explained.
"It's nothing. When I was a kid, I heard that my fellow villagers would ask how it was when they came back from somewhere else." Yin Chang said with a smile, "Just give me a break. Like this, if it causes me to lose my voice, I will
I must ask them to pay for my throat."
"There's nothing you can do to compensate for your throat. I can only ask them to give you their maid as an apology." Quan Xiu also said with a smile.
The two joked for a while, then stood up and left the tavern. In front of the tavern, Yin Chang said goodbye to Quan Xiu, and turned to return to the post house.
"I didn't go back to eat at noon today. I changed my clothes again. I have to explain to the deputy director of the hospital. What should I say? Should I tell him the truth or make up a lie to deceive him? Forget it, I have to repay Quan Xiu later. I
I didn't have much money at hand, so I had to borrow it from the deputy director of the hospital. I was afraid that I couldn't hide the matter, so I told him the truth.'
'And there is something very strange that I need to discuss with him. How dare those people who want to 'immortal dance' dare to blackmail me? Not to mention that I later said that I was from the Ming Dynasty. Even if I didn't say this, on my own
Even a few scoundrels wouldn't dare to blackmail me because of the clothes I'm wearing. A scoundrel who doesn't have eyesight won't survive long. The vice president of the hospital has experienced more things, and maybe he can understand what they think.'
While he was thinking about it, he walked towards the post house. But at this moment, the gate of a courtyard next to him suddenly opened, and a pair of hands stretched out and grabbed Yin Chang's arm, pulling him in. This man was very strong.
Big, even though Yin Chang felt that he was very strong, he was far inferior to this man. In addition, he didn't expect anyone to pull him in broad daylight, and he was already pulled into the yard before he knew it. As soon as he entered the yard
, the courtyard gate was also closed again.
"Brother Li, please don't scream. I have to talk to Brother Li sometimes." Yin Chang reacted and was about to say something when he heard this sentence coming from beside him.
Yin Chang quickly looked sideways and felt that he had seen this person's appearance before. After thinking about it carefully, he said, "I remembered you. You are the person who was in the tavern just now."
"Brother Li is indeed a native of the country. He has a very good memory. I am indeed a friend of Brother Quan. I was in the tavern just now. I also asked Brother Li a few questions." The man said with a smile.
"Dare I ask my brother's name?" Yin Chang asked again.
The expression on this man's face was stiff. But he quickly came to his senses and saluted, "I am Jin Chenglian, originally from Guangzhou."
"Gwangju?" Yin Chang was immediately startled. The current Crown Prince Zhu's wife's surname is Jin, and she comes from the Jin family in Gwangju. It is rare to have different aristocratic families with the same surname in one place. Since his surname is Jin, he is also a member of two noble families.
By birth, he was probably from the Kim family in Gwangju, and was a member of the crown prince's clan.
'If he wants to talk to me, what is he going to say...' Yin Chang kept thinking in his mind and asked: "Brother, what do you want to say to me?"
Jin Chenglian whispered a few words in Yin Chang's ear. The expression on Yin Chang's face immediately changed, and he didn't know what thoughts passed through his mind. After a while, he said: "Is there any evidence for what you said?
"
"Of course there is evidence." Jin Chenglian took out a large envelope from his arms, stuffed it into Yin Chang's hand and said, "What is written in the envelope is the evidence."
"This..." Yin Chang pondered for a moment, but did not open the envelope or ask any more questions about what was written in the envelope. Instead, he asked: "Why did you choose this time to sneak up on me?"
"Brother Li, because your messenger from the Ming Dynasty is always followed by people. We don't dare to alert them, so we don't dare to find you next day. Today we finally found a gap, and no one is following Brother Li quietly, so
I chose this time to find Brother Li." Jin Chenglian replied.
"Anyone who comes from the Ming Dynasty is always followed by someone?" Yin Chang suddenly felt creepy and didn't believe it, so he asked: "Since there are people following you all the time, why is there no one following you today?"
"I don't know about this, but Brother Li is not being followed today, and he is the only envoy from the Ming Dynasty who is not being followed." Jin Chenglian replied again.
"Okay, I know about this. Don't worry, your mission will definitely be achieved." Yin Chang did not ask any more questions, but said this, while thinking: 'It's really effortless to find a way out of iron shoes.
"I never thought that it would be so easy to know the truth of the matter. Could it be that this was done unintentionally?"
