Chapter 289 It’s him?
Chapter 289 It’s him?
General Qi was very straightforward: "Your Highness, please ask. If I know, I will tell you the truth."
"Although I look down on your father, the emperor, you are not bad. I don't know why he convicted you back then. I really don't know what he was thinking. He didn't even trust his most trusted son. How foolish." General Qi was very straightforward.
General Qi is very brave when it comes to speaking his mind. He never hides anything and always speaks very frankly.
If Shen Yindi and Si Qi were here at this time, they would inevitably join in cursing the dog emperor.
Chu Yan was not angry either, he understood.
After all, he was not in the camp supporting his father back then.
He was a victim of the failed succession plan.
"I heard from Miss Yue'er that five years ago you led a group to rob a wealthy businessman from Jiangnan, saying that he was sending money to Yu Ruoyang of Zhaoyue Country. Do you still remember who that man was?"
"And which escort agency is helping them escort their caravan?" Chu Yan didn't beat around the bush and directly asked what he was most concerned about.
Mu Ningyuan added, "This time, the emperor entrusted his nephew to investigate the treason charges against Yun Yi. We have found many clues. Yu Ruoyang is a key person."
General Qi nodded. He understood, and then said, "That was the largest fortune I robbed after occupying Nanfan Mountain, so I was deeply impressed."
"That wealthy businessman's surname is Zhao, and he used to run a rice shop business!"
"I heard he was a colleague of Meng Shizhao."
"Uncle Qi, do you still remember what he looks like? Are there any special characteristics?" Mu Ningyuan asked with concern.
"I remember. I have a very deep impression of him. He played tricks on me back then! He was full of tricks."
"Then can you tell me? I will try to copy it." Chu Yan is good at painting. If he could draw it, it would be much easier to find it.
"it is good."
General Qi ordered someone to bring out the writing brush, ink, paper and inkstone.
Although the old general is quite old, fortunately his health is good.
The memory is very good.
He has a sharp eye and is best at observing people.
Very good at capturing people's characteristics.
After his description, Chu Yan finally drew the person.
At this time, Shen Yindi came out from nowhere.
She stood next to Chu Yan and asked, "Hey, isn't this the owner of the cloth shop in Jiangnan?"
Chu Yan immediately raised his head and looked towards his princess.
"Adi, do you still remember him?"
"Of course I remember! We bought a lot of things in the cloth shop at that time! But he didn't seem very enthusiastic! He was much worse than Mr. Nan from the rouge and powder shop!" Shen Yindi said unhappily.
In fact, Chu Yan remembered it after he finished painting.
"So who is he?" Shen Yindi sat down next to Chu Yan and asked in a low voice.
"Uncle Qi said that he was the wealthy businessman who was robbed that year. His surname is Zhao." Chu Yan told her truthfully.
Shen Yindi raised her eyebrows, a hint of surprise flashing across her eyes.
Is it such a coincidence?
If that's the case, then it should be easier for them to find it.
"I remember the escort agency in charge of the transport. It was the Tianyi Escort Agency in Chuzhou City. This agency is also quite famous."
"But because of the loss of this dart, you might be implicated."
"I don't know who sent it after that." General Qi told everything he knew.
"Thank you, Uncle Qi. These are very important clues for us."
"You're too polite, nephew. If I can help you, I will be grateful to Miss Adi for saving my life." General Qi said earnestly.
"Uncle Qi, you are so polite! How do you feel now?" Shen Yindi asked with concern.
"Much better. Your medicine is very effective. I feel fine after taking two doses. The medicine prescribed by the doctor in the mountain village is useless for me." General Qi was a little annoyed.
"If the doctor in the village saw the prescription I wrote, he would definitely accuse me of doing something stupid!" Shen Yindi stuck out her tongue cunningly.
She was notoriously bold in prescribing medication, but she didn't see anything wrong with it.
"As long as it's good, young people need to be bolder." General Qi praised.
"Is everyone else still awake?"
General Qi looked around the yard and found it was surprisingly quiet.
"We ate roasted game and drank wine together last night. Yue'er and Qi'er were all drunk. Sister Yun and A Yao should be a little tired." Shen Yindi explained. In fact, it's not too late now.
It’s a little after eight o’clock in modern time.
As I said, people in ancient times got up early.
"Have you had breakfast?" General Qi asked again.
"Not yet. We just got here a short while ago."
Afterwards, Aunt Zhang invited them to have breakfast first.
As for others who haven't gotten up yet, we can eat together after they wake up.
"This time when Yue'er came back, I felt that she was more cheerful than before and became happy from the bottom of her heart. In my opinion, she should have made good friends like you."
"She has almost no friends of her own age in the village, and they are all little girls. This time she made so many friends at once, and I am very happy for her."
"With friends like you around, I can leave with peace of mind!" General Qi said earnestly.
As soon as he finished speaking, he was immediately refuted by Shen Yindi.
"Uncle Qi, what are you talking about? You are only fifty years old, right? You still have a long time to live, so stop saying these discouraging words! With me here, you will have no problem living to be seventy or eighty years old." Shen Yindi said confidently.
"You are quite confident, little girl."
"Of course, do you think I gave myself the title of Miracle Doctor?"
"Uncle Qi, you can really trust Miss Shen. She is really powerful." Mu Ningyuan also said.
"Okay, I believe you. But everything is up to fate."
"I have lived for most of my life, and it is enough!"
"How can it be enough? You haven't held your grandchild yet? When the time comes, Yue'er may have to help us with Zhuyue, and there will be no one to take care of the child."
General Qi couldn't help but laugh.
"I hope so. I have seen the letter that Zhuyue sent back before. He said that he would stay in the imperial capital to work for the Third Prince. As his wife, Yue'er must follow her husband's lead."
"They are in the imperial capital. It is impossible for me to go there."
Shen Yindi also understood. She would not force it.
"It's okay, you can come back occasionally in the imperial capital!"
"Let it be. I have no regrets." General Qi said disapprovingly.
Shen Yindi pouted, once again feeling that ancient means of transportation were too backward.
Afterwards, Zhuyue will find some people for Chu Yan to train as his confidants.
If he was specifically responsible for this matter, Shen Yindi felt that the original plan needed some changes.
However, she needs to discuss this matter with Chu Yan before making a decision.
After a while, Shen Yindi asked curiously again: "Uncle Qi, Yue'er said there will be another ticket in three days. Where did it come from?"
"Come to think of it, it's just a coincidence."
"The evil gentry we are targeting later has some connection with the wealthy businessman surnamed Zhao from five years ago..."
