The burning house kept collapsing and cracking, and the power of the fire talisman was not comparable to ordinary water flowing.

The confidant female official next to the queen died in the sea of ​​fire and turned into ashes.

Xu Yan felt much more at ease.

The people from the Queen's Sect came for the palace maids. His appearance was an accident. Now that the only female official who knew the inside story died, Xu Yan could naturally return to the imperial city with a swagger. No one would doubt him, the corpse refiner.

As soon as the palace maid died, Xu Yan became the only person who knew the secrets of the queen and the uncle.

In order not to cause trouble, Xu Yan did not intend to promote the royal defilements, so he would rather stay out of the matter.

Xu Yan is very self-aware.

But there is still a problem to be solved, Xiaobao's sister.

Xiaoyu sat straight in front of her brother's grave in a daze.

She actually expected something in her little heart.

The brother was killed inexplicably, and Sister Lin's rebellion became enemies. This must involve very important things and very important people.

She is afraid she won't be able to survive.

Hearing the footsteps behind her, her little body trembled for a moment. She didn't dare to look back, but closed her eyes silently.

She felt that she was about to die.

Just like my brother, I die inexplicably. Even if one day I am injustice, I will just have an additional cold stone tablet in front of the grave.

The expected sword did not appear, and the cold hand fell on the top of the head.

"Let's go, leave here and go to a new place to live."

Xu Yan rubbed the little head in front of him and took out a letter.

"Remember, you have never met Sister Lin, nor have you lived with any palace maids. You are my distant cousin and are about to live in Zhiyuan County for a long time."

The letter was written to Chen Zhouhua, the magistrate of Zhiyuan County.

There are not many words, the general meaning is that my cousin will move into the old house in the town, asking the magistrate of Chen to take care of him, and the signature is written with Xu Yan's name and the words "Si Tianjian" were added.

Xu Yan believes that as long as Chen Zhouhua sees this letter, he will definitely take care of Xiaoyu, and at least let the girl not be bullied when she lives in Zhiyuan County.

Xiaoyu could no longer hold back the tears that were in her eyes and rolled down.

She sobbed and choked, "Lin...Is she dead?"

Xu Yan nodded slightly.

"I, I know I'm a trouble, and the adults are willing to help me. What if the adults die because of me in the future!"

The little girl with tears and snot mixed together has a naive fear of the future.

However, more of it is deep concern.

"Don't worry, I won't die."

Xu Yan was full of confidence when he said this, and then gave the only silver left on him to the other party.

"Let's go, you must forget what you should forget, so that you can live well."

Xiaoyu pursed her lips tightly, nodded her head vigorously, and got on the carriage worriedly.

Xu Yan watched the carriage go away, and Pinghe's face quickly collapsed.

The house in Zhiyuan County is a bit broken, but it is considered a fixed asset at least. Now it’s good to give it to someone.

After touching the copper plates in his pocket, he couldn't help but want to sing to the sky.

It’s just one word to be poor! I only say it once!

In fact, the easiest solution is to silence Xiaoyu together, so that Xu Yan's involvement with this matter will be completely cut off. Even if the queen searches the world, she cannot find any clues related to Xu Yan.

But in that case, Xu Yan is not himself.

The trip to Zangshi Town ends.

Because the fire broke out in Xiaoyu's house, the neighbors around him thought Xiaoyu was buried in the sea of ​​fire, and many people felt very sorry.

What no one knows is that the lively and cheerful girl fled far away.

When Xu Yan returned to the Western Yamen, it was already dark.

As soon as I entered the door, I saw someone crying in the yard, like the family members of the coroner.

After entering the door, I saw Mu Zhengchu present. It seemed that he had just returned.

"Just come back? How is the case going well?" Xu Yan said.

"The monsters appeared and lost two colleagues, and I was the only one who survived." Mu Zhengchu said in a heavy tone, and the longbow he was stained with blood.

The case that Mu Zhengchu was executed was carried out by three people. Although the monster was successfully killed, the two coroners died and could not come back. The family members of the two coroners were crying at the door, who came to collect the corpses.

"Life and death are fate." Xu Yan patted his friend's shoulder and comforted him.

Mu Zhengchu was in a low mood, but his eyes were full of perseverance. Seeing him like this, Xu Yan felt a little relieved.

This is a strong person. Even if he learns that his family has collapsed, he can quickly walk out of the shadow of sadness.

When he returned to his residence, Xu Yan sorted out his personal belongings.

I went to Zangshi Town, and not only did I spend all the money, but I even made a house with me. The most overwhelming thing was that I died once again.

It's really unfavorable to go out.

In the future, you should not walk around when you are resting, and it is safer to keep in the room and draw talismans.

When Xu Yan remembered the talisman making, he became interested, but unfortunately he used up all the talisman paper and had no money to buy it.

Calculate the day, it's still early to pay the monthly salary next time.

Not to mention that the monthly salary of 200 taels of silver is a high income in ordinary people, you can only buy twenty animal skin talisman papers that make talismans by taking it to Yibao Building.

Money...

When Xu Yan thought of silver, he gritted his teeth.

no!

We must get back the debt that the King of Poetry owed, 11,000 taels of silver, how much talisman paper can we buy!

Xu Yan was not very familiar with the imperial city, and he didn't even know where King Shi lived, so he needed someone to help.

To do things like accounting, you must find the right person.

Being bold and meticulous is the most basic requirement.

Without thinking, Xu Yan found Uncle Cai directly after dawn.

"It's actually quite troublesome to ask for the debt. The other party neither writes an IOU nor has any mortgages, and there is no way to speak empty words. Besides, they are still distinguished guests from Peach Blossom Country. As big business people, we cannot embarrass Your Majesty. Isn't it just a little money, just to be disgraced. His Poetry King is shameless, and we are shameless."

After Xu Yan explained the purpose of the visit, he didn't care at all, thinking that it was only a few hundred taels of silver.

When he heard that he had owed a total of 11,000 taels, he threw away all the wine glasses.

"More than ten thousand taels? Let's go to him now! If you dare not pay back the money, you will chase him to his Peach Blossom Country! It will ruin him! It will make him infamous for thousands of years!"

"Uncle Cai, are we shameless?"

"In front of silver, you can do it!"

Ten thousand taels of silver are not a small amount.

With the abilities of Xu Yan and Fei Cai, it may not be possible to get them out of the mouth of the King of Poetry.

If someone bites him to death, he will be unable to give him any help.

Xu Yan knew very well that there were many people and great power. In order to collect debts, he found another helper.

This person is the Minister of Rites and Jiang Dachuan.

The Ministry of Rites is in charge of the five rituals.

Debts and repaying money is not considered a guest courtesy, but at least he deals with foreign royal families. Xu Yan thinks that a slick guy like Jiang Dachuan must be a good player to ask for money.

As expected.

As soon as Jiang Dachuan came forward, he immediately spoke in a constant way to clarify the pros and cons. He sang one with Feicai and the other with the other with the soft and hard, and finally, after a good thing never goes out, bad things spread thousands of miles away. People's words were terrifying, Xie Xun finally paid the money obediently.

Xu Yan was not a stingy person, so he gave Feicai and Jiang Dachuan two thousand taels each, and was so happy that they thanked each other repeatedly.

I have been to Dashang for a long time and finally saw the money!

Then Xu Yan began to count silver notes.

This is the happiness of life.
Chapter completed!
