It was the end of September when Xiao Jinyan and Jin Buchang arrived in the capital.

Because of his special identity, for the sake of safety, he changed his identity and Mo Jiawei.

This is one of the few top masks that Lei Zhenyu gave him at the beginning. Lu Yin has everything he has in his life. He is over forty years old, with a goatee, thin appearance, left-handed, and is also a person who uses boxing skills. He knows martial arts skills, but is not very high. His cultivation is in the middle of the hearing realm. He once broke into the Dragon and Tiger Beach and rescued several fallen women.

More importantly, he has no relatives and no reason in the capital, and he has a house. Although Xiao Jinyan has a residence near Dengwenyuan, he obviously cannot live there. Sibu, a secret spy in the court, knows if he will stare at it.

Therefore, the Mo family is an excellent cover for this identity.

As for Jin Buhuan, he became a follower of Master Mo. After the city gate officer inspected the road and checked the appearance, he did not obstruct too much and returned to the capital.

The two of them came to the east of Di'anmen and found the house.

The Di'anmen is located, quite close to the palace, including Shangyijian, Weaving and Dyeing Bureau, Paper House, Anletang, etc. Many officials who serve the palace are built here. This house is separated from the Weaving and Dyeing Bureau by a street. The yard is not big and a little dilapidated, but it is at the foot of the emperor. According to life records, this yard is the residence of an old eunuch in the previous dynasty. The old eunuch has no children, and only the Mo family is a nephew, so he left the house to him after his death.

The only problem is that the house deed is in the money house. When the Mo family was in the world, they mortgaged the house to the money house and exchanged for 300 taels of silver.

This happened three years ago.

Now that he has returned to the capital, he has taken the bill to the Merchant Money House.

There are many people in the money house. They are either rich or noble when they look at their costumes. After all, they are the largest money house under the imperial city. They have good reputations and many guests every day. Among them, there are many palace maids and eunuchs who also come here to deposit and withdraw gold and silver and exchange silver notes.

When working in the palace, there are always some shameful incomes that have no place to store them. Only by exchanging them into silver notes can you feel at ease.

Although there were many people, the service was also attentive. A friend brought the tea and the two sat on the chairs waiting to call the phone. Xiao Jinyan was drinking tea while looking at the money house.

The conversation between the two palace maids attracted his attention. Although the two voices were small, they could not escape Xiao Jinyan's ears.

"This time the palace was closed for seven or eight days before we had the chance to come out. We were so scared that we were worried these days that we thought we were going to die inside." said a thin palace maid.

Another fat palace maid echoed, "That's it. The sixteen palace maids in the second room of the A, as well as the imperial kitchen, and more than a dozen father-in-laws in the Imperial Horse Prison were all killed by sticks, and they were almost the same as the time in the year of Renyin of Shizong."

When Emperor Shizong was reigned, several palace maids intended to strangle the emperor. After the failure, a major purge was carried out in the palace, also known as the Renyin Palace Transformation.

"It seems that I have heard something that shouldn't have been said." said the thin palace maid. "I heard that Dean Li scolded the saint in the palace. The saint was angry and killed everyone he heard."

"Who did you hear?"

"Eunuch Li from the Royal Kitchen, he escaped because of his deaf ears." After that, he whispered, "You don't know, in fact, he is not deaf at all. He always pretends to be deaf on weekdays, but he just looks deaf. Many people don't avoid him when discussing things, so he is well-informed."

The fat palace maid said, "Then he told you this?"

The thin palace maid said, "He is an old pervert who hit me all day long. After I used some tricks, he told me all the time. I have to save all the money I saved so I won't have a chance in the future."

When Xiao Jinyan heard this, he asked tentatively, "Two girls, I wonder what you are talking about Dean Li, but Dean Li of Dengwen Academy?"

Seeing this goatee, the two palace maids felt alert and even stood up, "No, we didn't say anything."

They were afraid that these two of them would be nice-sounding spies, so they were so scared that they didn't even save the money and left.

Jin Buhuan said, "Where is such a direct way to deal with girls?"

Xiao Jinyan scratched his head and asked, "Are you wrong?"

Jin Buhuan asked, "Are you feeling comfortable with it?"

"Comfortable."

"If someone comes to you inexplicably and tickling you, will you feel comfortable?" He said again, "If you communicate with others, you have to take it step by step to slowly let the other party take precautions."

Xiao Jinyan said, "Then you go and ask me. I'll ask you for roast duck tonight."

Jin Buhuan followed the two palace maids out.

It was Xiao Jinyan's turn soon. When the other party learned that he was here to redeem the deed, the friend led him to the second shopkeeper's hut.

The second shopkeeper carefully checked the bills and his Lu Yin, and then said, "You mortgaged the house to us and took away three hundred taels of silver, two cents of profit, three years. Now you have exceeded half a year, plus the penalty interest and the interest, a total of 2,200 taels."

Xiao Jinyan stumbled, "Shopkeeper, are you doing it wrong? Three points of profit, three years, even four years, even if the profit is rising, it will be only 500 taels at most. How can you calculate 2,002?"

The second shopkeeper said, "When the contract was established, it was stipulated that if you do not redeem it within three years, we have the right to deal with the house. Now in the past three years, the housing prices have risen all the time. Houses in the same location are now sold for 2,500 taels. We have found a buyer for your house, 2,200 taels. If you want to redeem it, we will sell it."

"How come, your money house borrows money, and the interest is not based on the principal, but also based on the price of the house?"

The second shopkeeper said, "It's all said, it's turned into a dead end. You either give money or leave, or we'll report to the official."

Xiao Jinyan thought to himself that if he really received an official, things would be in trouble. Anyway, he still had money on him, so he didn't argue with him and obediently paid the money and took the deed back to leave.

The second shopkeeper saw a stack of silver notes in his arms and secretly wrote them down. As soon as Xiao Jinyan went out, the second shopkeeper followed him with a few friends, "Mr. Mo, wait."

"What's wrong?"

"Your silver bill is fake!"

Xiao Jinyan sneered in his heart. It was probably because these guys saw his silver bills being exposed, and they were malicious and came to find trouble on purpose, so they said, "The bill number rules are not responsible for leaving the counter."

The second shopkeeper said, "We are responsible, and we are not responsible. If you get fake silver notes, this is not a trivial matter. You either report to the official or hand over the deed."

Xiao Jinyan didn't want to meet the official, for fear of causing unnecessary trouble.

When the two shopkeepers saw his expression, they knew that his silver bill was not right and became more righteous, so they said, "Let's go, see the official."

Xiao Jinyan said, "Okay, okay, you can discuss something. Look at an alley there, let's go there to solve it?"

The second shopkeeper relied on the large number of people to make a profit, so he came to the alley and ordered people to watch both ends of the alley and confront Xiao Jinyan, "Mr. Mo, this silver is probably not clean, right?"

Xiao Jinyan smiled and said, "The best ox horn paper and the clan seal of the Li family in Jinling. You say it is unclear, which means that the money of the Li family in Jinling is not clean? Is there any law of the heavenly rule?"

Then I thought, why are I talking about these things with them? What else do I need to tell? Before they can do it, Xiao Jinyan stepped forward and beat these people to the ground with three punches and two kicks.

The second shopkeeper was beaten up very hard and said, "My second uncle is a big guard. You bully me today. Be careful that he will settle the score with you in the future."

When Xiao Jinyan heard this, he became angry and swung his fist and hit him like a raindrop. After a moment, the shopkeeper's nose and face were swollen, like a pig's head, begging for mercy. "Stop hitting, stop hitting, I promise not to cause trouble for you anymore."

Xiao Jinyan then stopped his fists and patted the dust on his body, "You know where I live. If you want to seek revenge on me, just let your second uncle come!"

After saying that, he left the alley.

The two people guarding the alley witnessed the scene just now and did not dare to stop it. They quickly gave up and went to help the second shopkeeper.

The second shopkeeper kept crying, "Go and find my second uncle!"

His second uncle lives on the street opposite, and calculated his days. He hasn't seen his second uncle for seven or eight days. He should not be on duty today. When he finds him, he will go to seek revenge on the man named Mo.

After a while, the guy came back with a very awkward expression, "Did you see my second uncle?"

The guy said, "See."

"Tell him I was beaten?"

The guy shook his head, "Didn't say it."

The second shopkeeper said dissatisfied, "Why don't you say it?"

"He doesn't listen."

二掌柜蹭地跳了起来,指着他骂道,“你小子是不是偷懒了?我二叔没有子嗣,平日里最是疼我,别说我挨揍了,就是别人骂我两句,他都会穿着禁军的衣服去给我出气.”

The guy said, "I'm afraid it won't work this time."

“Why?”

The guy whispered, "I just went to the garrison and saw your second uncle and a dozen generals covered in blood and were pulled out by a donkey cart. It seems that he can't survive."

His second uncle was one of the imperial guards who Li Chuntie scolded the emperor for being on duty that night.

...

As soon as Xiao Jinyan entered the yard, Jin Buhuan came back, with an excited face and said, "I'll help you find out."

"How did you do it?"

Jin Buhuan smiled and said, "I have a way to deal with women than you." After that, he told Xiao Jinyan the news revealed by the two palace maids.

When he learned that Li Chuntie's swearing in the palace was ordered by His Majesty to swear, Xiao Jinyan couldn't sit still and was about to rush into the palace to save the people.

Jin Buhuan quickly stopped him, "Brother, don't be impulsive."

Xiao Jinyan said, "My senior brother is in trouble, how can I not be impulsive?"

"Practice has proved that when people are impulsive, they will make mistakes. The guards in the palace are strictly guarded. If they accidentally alert the enemy, the other party will be more prepared and it will be even more difficult to get in."

Xiao Jinyan said, "I believe in my martial arts."

Jin Buhuan asked, "How about Dean Lee?"

Xiao Jinyan hesitated for a moment, "It's better."

"Even Dean Li can't escape. If you break in now, it's like a moth to a fire, so I think you should make a long-term plan."

"How do you plan for a long time?"

Jin Buchang said, "Fill your stomach first, then find out the situation. Also, you promised my roast duck, Quanjude."

The authorities are obsessed with it.

After thinking for a while, Xiao Jinyan figured out the key. He still had three Qilin Tongbao in his arms. At that time, Mr. Xu asked him to ask Master Yuxi. This national teacher from Longhu Mountain had always been acquainted with his senior brother and should be able to give him some advice.

"Let's go, eat roast duck!"

Xiao Jinyan brought Jin Buhuan to Jin Jude.

Jin Buhuan looked at the sign in front of the door, "If you don't read this word, I read less, but I still know my surname."
