C361 Black and White Are Reversed

Du Qi said angrily, "This is all thanks to you!"

Yan Hao was surprised again and said, "Why is this matter related to me again? I have no impression of it at all. Where did Young Master Du hear it from? Did he make a mistake?"

Du Qi saw that Yan Hao did not know who he was talking about and denied it. He even pretended to be wronged. It seemed that this was the habit of a treacherous official like Yan Hao to cover up his crimes and gain sympathy. The disgust in his heart towards Yan Hao intensified. He said, "Didn't you kill General Zhong Lie?"

Yan Hao was obviously stunned when he heard that, but he suddenly laughed and said, "Qin Dingshan is a good man. I want to put him in an important position. But he did not know what was good for him. He kept going against me. I was just about to find trouble with him. Who would have thought that he would be transferred to the South Sea by the Bureau of Military Personnel to quell the rebellion? To tell the truth, it has nothing to do with me, and I didn't know about it beforehand. What happened? Did something happen to Qin Dingshan? Does the world still blame me for this? Ha!"

For some unknown reason, Yan Hao finally managed to stop his laughter. He then sighed and said, "Sigh! Everyone thinks that I can do whatever I want with my power, but they don't know that I have many things that I don't want to do. It's not like I can do anything with my own hands."

Seeing that Du Qi did not believe him, Yan Hao continued, "There is a law in court, and everything must be done according to the law. Take the matter of mobilizing troops and generals as an example. Without the Emperor's personal decree, the Bureau of Military Personnel will not dare to randomly mobilize troops and soldiers. If there is no official document from the Bureau of Military Personnel, any general will not receive the order!"

Du Qi said," You hold a high position and have many accomplices. Who would dare to not listen to your orders? One sentence from you is more effective than any legal regulation, right? "

Yan Hao smiled bitterly and said, "If I can really mobilize troops and generals with just one sentence like the people think, everyone will have to act according to my expression. Why would there be a Qin Dingshan incident? Maybe I would have destroyed the Heaven and Earth Cult long ago. How could I be trapped today? "

Du Qi really did not know whether what Yan Hao said was true or not. He could not help but ask weakly," Is the matter of Qin Dingshan really not related to you? "

Yan Hao asked in return, "With my status and identity, is there a need to deceive Young Master Du? Besides, with Qin Dingshan's temperament, if there was no supreme order, would he be willing to divorce me?"

Thinking about Yan Hao's words, it was indeed not unreasonable. To Yan Hao, not to mention just transferring Qin Dingshan, or forcing him out of the capital, it was also a small matter. It was not a big deal even if Qin Dingshan was beheaded on the spot and revealed to the public. There was no need for Yan Hao to lie to him. But it was true that Qin Dingshan left the capital to avoid being persecuted by Yan Hao. Then... Who had the ability to force Qin Dingshan out of the capital and make people blame Yan Hao for this? After pondering for a long time, Du Qi could only temporarily put the matter of Qin Dingshan aside. He then said, "Then, what about Yu Dayuv? Could it be that it has nothing to do with you?"

Yan Hao said, "Yu Dayuv is also a good man, but he also goes against me everywhere like Qin Dingshan."

Du Qi said," So you listed the charges to throw him into jail, and then think of a way to put him to death? "

Stunned, Yan Hao actually sighed and said, So, you listed the charges to throw him into jail, and then think of a way to put him to death?" Young Master Du knew that Yu Dayuv was imprisoned because he was not able to fight. Not only did I not harm him, but I am trying to save him. Do you not believe me? Please listen to me and you will understand. "

Hearing Yan Hao's words, a strange feeling suddenly surged in Du Qi's heart. Could it be that Yan Hao had already expected them to talk about Yu Dayuv, saying that they would only talk about this place because they wanted to get out of line or because they wanted to express something to him? The more Du Qi thought about it, the more he felt that this possibility was greater. Otherwise... If not... No matter how confidential the conversation was, there was no need to carry it out in such a more secretive underground chamber. It seemed like Yan Hao was indeed very difficult to deal with the evil Jiao. Then, what was the purpose of Yan Hao doing this?

As he thought about it, another wave of footsteps sounded. Du Qi could tell that one of them was Lu Bing's footsteps. They entered the main hall with a string of shouts. Lu Bing and Yan Shifan sat down politely and then knocked on the table and went straight to the point. "This is three thousand taels of silver. It's a small token of my respect. Please accept it, Shixian. Don't decline it." It was probably Lu Bing who took out the silver notes he had brought and placed them on the table as he spoke.

Yan Shifan smiled politely and said, "It is already enough for Lord Lu to lower himself to come to my humble abode and light up the walls of my humble abode. Why bring these worldly things here? No one blames our friendship. Come, come, come, come. Lord Lu, please have a taste. This was the most expensive Cloudmist Mountain tea in Yunnan. There is no way to sell it in the market. I spent a lot of effort to get a small bag. It is said that it is worth thousands of gold. It is only because Lord Lu is here that I dare not hide it. Ha! "

Another two clear sounds came from within the laughter. It seemed like Lu Bing and Yan Shifan had placed the tea set on the table after drinking their tea. After a short while, Yan Shifan laughed and said," Oh right, I have yet to ask Lord Lu what business does he have in coming to my humble abode for? "

Lu Bing said, "Please give me some face and help me save a person from prison. Just a few silver notes to invite Shixian to help me out. I am very grateful. After the matter is settled, I will treat Shixian to a drink to express my gratitude."

Yan Shifan still smiled and said, "I mean, who in the world doesn't know that Yan is an honest official. For the past few decades, we have been very strict with each other. Why would Lord Lu, who knows the reason behind his actions, send me banknotes in such a grand manner? It turns out that he wanted me to use it to reward the servants in order to save him. This is another matter. I just don't know who has such great face to actually trouble Lord Lu to personally help him escape."

Hearing Yan Shifan's shameless words, Du Qi couldn't help but look at Yan Hao with disdain. He saw Yan Hao looking at him with a face full of pride. Just as they were about to speak, they heard Lu Bing say with a hollow laugh, "To tell you the truth, the person I asked Shixian to save is Yu Dayuv from Fujian Province."

"Phew!" Yan Shifan spat out the tea in his mouth after hearing what Lu Bing said. His voice stopped Du Qi and Yan Hao from continuing their conversation. Yan Shifan let out two strange cries and laughed. "Lord Lu really knows how to joke. Who is that Yu Dayuv? Who are you, Lord Lu? If someone else came looking for me, they might not be able to spend these banknotes. However, it was different when Lord Lu appeared. Please think about it. The person Lord Lu told me to tell me how to get things done said that this is three thousand silver from Lord Lu. You guys can take it and have a cup of tea. Then secretly let Yu Dayuv out and let Lord Lu take him away?"

Upon hearing Yan Shifan's words, Du Qi saw that Yan Hao's expression remained unchanged, as if nothing had happened. He even sighed with emotion and said, "Sigh! Everyone in the world says that it is good to be an official, but who knows that it is also difficult to be an official! Did Young Master Du hear it? Now, even if a child came out to request for help, there was no lack of up and down arrangements. The others could be imagined. Ai! It's difficult!"
