Chapter 1053: Windfall

By purchasing or visiting the "calligraphy treasures" circulated on the market, Wu Yi discovered something strange.

The discovery of this strange thing is very likely to directly overturn the previous speculation and confirm that Chu Cairen was really just talking nonsense and did not record the fate of the officials.

This incident made Wu Yi feel extremely ashamed and ashamed.

The calligraphy of Chu Cairen circulating on the market is completely different from the handwriting he gave Wu Yi on the yellow paper before. There is no similarity at all. Even considering that Chu Cairen deliberately concealed his identity and recorded hundreds of things,

The handwriting changes when the official is in love, but it is impossible to become a completely different person.

Wu Yi didn't think Chu Cairen would let others ghostwrite this kind of thing.

It was so embarrassing that Wu Yi did not dare to report the matter to King Yong at the first time. Logically speaking, the chance of Chu Cairen concealing it was low, otherwise he would be seeking death.

But he is not afraid of ten thousand, just in case. Wu Yi does not want to be buried with the Chu Cai people. This law is completely different. This is a matter on the surface. Wu Yi cannot hide it for long, and must deal with the matter as soon as possible.

In Wu Yi's heart, he hoped that the Chu Cai people would have the ability to shoot left and right. Otherwise, it would be fine if they could write with their feet. In short, this should be explained as a loophole with different handwriting.

It was already dusk. Wu Yi, who knew this, had no idea of ​​eating to quench his thirst. He turned into a small road and came to the outside of Chu Cairen's mansion in a twists and turns. If he wanted to know what happened, asking other people might not be useful.

, why not come to Chu Cairen’s mansion.

Wu Yi originally planned to wait for a few days and wait for Chu Cairen to relax his vigilance before coming to his house again, but it was the same thing now, as people from both sides were coming.

After patrolling outside for an hour or two, when the night covered the sky and stars appeared in the sky, the tourists also had dinner and went to the market to play. The outside was bustling and quiet, which could conceal Wu Yi's movements.

Just be careful not to be seen.

Taking advantage of the darkness, Wu Yi rolled over and entered Chu Cairen's mansion. Although Wu Yi knew that Chu Cairen's mansion was not big when he was walking outside, the shabby condition inside was beyond Wu Yi's expectation.

There are only a few houses in the mansion, and only a few old servants are cleaning it. The red paint has fallen off, making it look dilapidated and lonely. As the saying goes, when a tree falls, the monkey will scatter. After Chu Cai lost power, it is expected that no one will take him seriously, but at least he has been a minister of the Ministry of Civil Affairs.

He is a court official, how can he be so shabby?

In fact, Wu Yi had been in Prince Yong's Mansion for a long time and was used to seeing luxury and beauty. All the things were royal belongings and were of exquisite beauty. However, Zhongdu was a place with a lot of money. People like Chu Cai, who came from a poor family, had no foundation in Zhongdu.

It is extremely difficult to establish a foothold here. Many court officials rent houses.

It is already a good result for Chucai people to own a yard. Many people never save enough money to own a house until their death.

If what Chu Cai said was true and he really recorded the materials in several large boxes, there would not be much hiding place for him in such a small courtyard. If Wu Yi was a Chu Cai, he would not have kept such important things.

Set it here.

It's not a big problem that he can't find the official's handwriting. Anyway, that's not the purpose of Wu Yi's trip. At present, he still needs to find out what the different handwriting is.

It fell lightly to the ground, without even shaking a leaf. The old servant had already fallen asleep, and only the light in the study was still on. Chu Cairen's wife died a few years ago, and now he has a concubine by his side.

There seemed to be a quarrel inside, and Wu Yi eavesdropped through the wall. The content was nothing more than the concubine complaining that the family was almost depleted, lamenting that she was unlucky enough to choose Chu Cairen as her husband.

Chu Cairen scolded the concubine for being short-sighted and said that he would be reinstated soon. The concubine quipped that he hadn't even seen a ghost in the past few days. Where would he get the chance to be reinstated?

Chu Cairen was furious and drove the concubine out of the study. Then, in front of Wu Yi's eyes, the concubine packed up her luggage and left the mansion. Before leaving, she swore never to come back again. Although there was no reconciliation,

But what is the difference with Li?

It was really a leaky house and it rained all night. If Wu Yi was from Chucai, he would be extremely depressed at this moment and worried about his future.

Although the Chu Cai people are not serving as errands, they still have their salaries. Although the Daji Dynasty's welfare for officials is not particularly good, it should not be a problem to let the Chu Cai people spend their old age peacefully. Where will the money of the Chu Cai people be spent?

Already?

Thinking about this matter in his mind, Wu Yi seemed to have opened a bright door in a trance. This matter may not be a breakthrough in finding the love story of Baiguan.

Seeing that the concubine was about to disappear, Wu Yi hardly hesitated. He could check the handwriting problem later. If the concubine who might be a breakthrough was gone, but he couldn't catch up, he followed the concubine from behind.

Temporarily left Chu Cairen's mansion.

Along the way, the concubine was still chattering, cursing Chu Cairen, and stamping her feet on the ground from time to time, as if the old guy Chu Cairen was under his feet.

The people of Chu Cai have known their destiny in recent years, but this concubine is still in the prime of her youth. She has slim shoulders, a slim waist, a long figure, an oval face, handsome eyes and eyebrows.

Marrying a wife is a virtuous one, keeping a concubine is a good idea. The vision of Chu Cai people obviously conforms to this proverb.

Wu Yi stopped the woman at the corner of the street and asked bluntly: "Are you from Chu Cai's house?"

After the disguise, Wu Yi had an ordinary middle-aged face, his voice was suppressed, and his speech was a bit rough.

The concubine was so frightened by Wu Yi who suddenly spoke to him that she almost fell down. She asked warily: "What are you going to do? I have already left his house. The affairs of his house have nothing to do with me. Don't look for me!"

I just wanted to leave in a hurry.

Wu Yi chuckled lightly and said, "Girl, don't worry. Chu Cai is corrupt and commits many evil deeds. The emperor suspended him from his post but did not send him to prison. It is completely unreasonable!"

Perhaps because of this old relationship, the concubine didn't want to sell Chu Cairen, so she said: "I don't know anything about these things, you can ask others!"

"He has already driven you away, so why do you need to speak for him?" As he said, Wu Yi took out a hundred taels of silver, put it in the palm of his hand, and continued: "I told you, this thing is yours!"

The concubine was not dazzled by the money, she frowned and said, "Are you following me?"

"I'm not following you, I'm getting evidence!" Wu Yi corrected the error in her words.

The concubine glanced at Bai Yin, as if being pricked by a needle, and quickly moved her eyes away. To say that she didn't care about Bai Yin was impossible for her who was away from Chu Cairen.

But this thing is not so easy to handle because it pricks your hand. She has a low status, but beside a high-ranking official like Chu Cairen, she knows many things and is not stupid.
