"Old Master, there's a big man outside. He's speaking with a frightening aura.
He said that he was Old Master's childhood friend.”
After returning home in the carriage, Yuan Ye changed out of his court clothes and started eating.
At this moment, Yuan San ran over and reported to Yuan Ye.
"Oh? Old Master, my hometown friend?"
"Is his name Xu Chu?"
Yuan Ye was puzzled at first, but then he remembered the system's reward. His eyes lit up and he asked anxiously.
"Yes, he said that his name is Xu Chu!”
Yuan San replied.
"Please come in…Forget it, I'll go and welcome them.”
Yuan Yeting was indeed Xu Chu. He could not wait any longer.
He hurriedly got up and walked out.
"My lord!"
Seeing Yuan Ye come out, Xu Chu, who was outside the door, cupped his hands and greeted him.
"Don't, don't, don't. You can't call me Lord.
This is a rebellion."
Yuan Ye hurriedly corrected him.
"Then what should I call you?"
Xu Chu asked in a muffled voice as he rubbed the back of his head.
"Yes, let's call him Master."
Yuan Ye said.
"Yes, Master."
Xu Chu did not mind after hearing that.
He immediately agreed.
"Alright, come in quickly."
Yuan Ye smiled as he beckoned Xu Chu inside.
With the equipment, his safety was guaranteed.
Yuan Ye said that he was unhappy, but that was just a lie.
As he spoke, Yuan Ye held Xu Chu's hand and walked in.
"Peony, Tangyuan, you two go and stir-fry a few more dishes.
It's cooking rice in the steamer."
"Yuan Yi, Yuan Er, Yuan San, the three of you let the coachman take you to the winery to buy wine.
This was 20 taels of silver. Buy it according to this money. You must buy the best wine.
He bought it at twenty taels.
If our carriage can't hold it, we'll just ask the winery to send it over.”
Yuan Ye pulled Xu Chu to the dining table and sat down. Then, he smiled and gave instructions.
Then, he took out 20 taels of silver and asked Yuan Yi and the others to buy wine.
A person like Xu Chu had an astonishing appetite. After all, he was very good at fighting.
In addition, in the past, which general in the Three Kingdoms did not love wine as much as his life?
"Thank you, Master."
Xu Chu said happily to Yuan Ye when he heard his instructions.
"Today, I'll definitely get drunk with you, Xu Chu.”
Yuan Ye said to Xu Chu with a smile.
………
The night was silent…
It was almost noon the next day when Yuan Ye held his head that was about to explode. He drank a bowl of hangover soup and a bowl of lean meat porridge under the service of Shaoyao and Tangyuan before exhaling comfortably.
Yesterday, he was so drunk that he did not control his own volume for a moment. He did not even measure his body and directly picked up the wine jar and drank from Xu Chu.
In the end, he vomited until he was unconscious, but Xu Chu was still complaining that it was not enough.
"Alright, pack up your belongings and get Yuan Yi and Yuan Er to bring the money to buy a carriage.
After that, we'll set off for Yangzhou directly after I've recovered.”
Yuan Ye said weakly as he lay on the bed.
The current Yuan Ye was just a weak scholar.
With Xu Chu's alcohol tolerance and physique, even ten Yuan Yes would not be able to knock him out.
"Yes, Master."
Shaoyao agreed and went out to give instructions.
"Master, you're awake!
He really can't hold his liquor."
Shaoyao had just left when Xu Chu came in with a wine jar and shouted at Yuan Ye.
"If you keep talking, I'll let you stay here and look after the house. I won't take you with me to Yangzhou this time.”
Yuan Ye's face darkened when he heard Xu Chu's words.
She said angrily to Xu Chu.
She thought to herself that Xu Chu was indeed a straightforward and foolish tiger fool.
He didn't think before he spoke, and he didn't know how to act. It was all based on his own preferences.
He was so straightforward when he spoke.
"Uh, then I won't say anymore."
Hearing Yuan Ye's words, Xu Chu cowered and stopped talking.
"Alright, alright, you can leave. We'll set off when they come back. I'll lie down for a while.”
Yuan Ye waved his hand and said to Xu Chu.
"Yes."
Xu Chu agreed and carried the wine jar out.
Yuan Ye lay back down and closed his eyes.
………
After the carriage was bought and the things that needed to be brought were loaded into the newly bought carriage, Yuan Ye set off with Xu Chu, Shaoyao, Tangyuan, Yuan Si, and Yuan Wu.
As for Yuan One, Yuan Two, and Yuan Three, they stayed behind to look after the house.
Yuan Si and Yuan Wu were driving the new horse carriage with Soft Soft behind them.
Xu Chu sat inside.
As for Yuan Ye, he was sitting in the carriage given by Emperor Taikang with Peony and Glutinous Ball.
The carriage bestowed by Emperor Taikang was naturally good.
There was a lot of space inside, and the bumps were small.
It was very comfortable to sit inside.
Yuan Ye, Peony, and Glutinous Ball didn't know how crowded the carriage was.
This time, they headed south after leaving the capital city, specifically avoiding the path that the six kings 'armies had to pass through.
After walking for seven days, they changed to the waterway and sailed on the waterway for five days before getting off the ship and arriving at Yangzhou.
……
Lin Manor…
Yuan Ye didn't rest when he arrived in Yangzhou and went straight to the Lin Mansion to find Lin Ruhai.
Lin Ruhai's home could be said to be very big.
It was a large courtyard with seven entrances and seven exits. The garden behind it, the rockery, the pool, and the pavilion occupied a large area.
There were all kinds of expensive flowers and plants in the garden, and all kinds of ornamental fish in the pool were rolling and playing on the surface of the water.
Yuan Ye sighed with emotion.
He thought that he would have such a big courtyard in the near future.
"May I know what instructions Your Majesty has?"
In the backyard…
Lin Ruhai blocked his left and right. After the two of them sat down in the pavilion, they asked Yuan Ye.
"There are two purposes for coming here this time. One is that His Majesty felt that the Salt Minister is not in good health, so he asked me to come and take a look.
I'll report it to His Majesty when I get back so that His Majesty can be at ease.”
Yuan Ye sat opposite Lin Ruhai and explained.
"Yes, I have made Your Majesty worry.”
Lin Ruhai couldn't help but feel touched after hearing this.
He cupped his fists and bowed in the direction of the capital.
"Secondly, I want to investigate the salt administration in Yangzhou.
Now that His Majesty had just ascended the throne for three years, the tax revenue of various places was getting lower and lower year by year.
His Majesty suspected…that this matter had something to do with Xun Gui.”
Yuan Ye said after Lin Ruhai was done.
Hearing Yuan Ye's words, Lin Ruhai was stunned. Then, he frowned and fell silent.
Seeing this, Yuan Ye silently activated his mind reading technique to listen to Lin Ruhai's thoughts.
Soon, Yuan Ye understood everything.
Because Lin Ruhai's heart was very conflicted, he naturally had many thoughts.
Therefore, Yuan Ye knew a part of it. He connected it to the Dream of the Red Chamber that he had read before and roughly guessed it.
Lin Ruhai had already investigated everything.
However, this matter was related to the nobility, so he had been hesitating to submit a memorial to Emperor Taikang.
Lin Ruhai's family used to be a member of the nobility. Their family was a marquis for generations, but it could only be passed down for three generations.
However, Lin Ruhai's father had relied on his own talent to pass down his legacy. It wasn't until Lin Ruhai's generation that he was completely unrelated to the nobility.
