Pei Yu choked. After a while, he slowly said to Lu JinNian with a complicated look in his eyes, ”Brother Chu, it's better if you don't go to that place.”
Prime Minister Pei and General Lu were respectively civil and military generals, and they often quarrelled because of different angles of view. If General Lu knew that it was because he had started visiting brothels and was addicted to them, how could he not skin them alive?
Seeing him so conflicted and with his eyebrows twitching, looking like he wanted to remain calm but couldn't, and yet was still so strong that he had to remain calm on the surface, Lu Jinsheng found it interesting and raised his eyebrows, ”Brother Yu, it's strange that I didn't bring you along to play?”
Pei Yu, ”…”
Lu JinNian laughed, ”I'm just teasing you. I'm a fan of Brother Yin Jiu's painting. He's in jail, so I'll go check on his girlfriend on his behalf.”
”Miss Ning Lan?”
”That's right,” Lu Jinniang said with a smile. ”Even Brother Yu knows about it. Fragrant Pavilion's Courtesan Belle truly lives up to his reputation.”
Pei Yu rolled her eyes at her, ”Keep talking nonsense and take a look. You've come so early, so why don't you tell me what you want my help for?”
Even though he was inexperienced, Pei Yu had always been by his father's side ever since he was young. He had a good eye for people, after the previous few encounters, he had completely seen through Lu JinNian's weird behavior. He was relaxed and carefree, but he had his own standards and bottom line.
She wouldn't have the leisure to run over here and interact with him.
After being exposed, Lu JinNian touched his nose, ”Cough, isn't my idol in prison? I've been taken into custody by the Capital Prefecture. Let's see if Brother Yu can accommodate us and let my little brother go in to take a look.”
When it came to official business, Pei Yu frowned and said, ”In the case of Shen Yin, His Majesty, the Emperor, is very concerned. In the case of Shen Yin, His Majesty, the Emperor is very concerned about the case.
”Brother Yu, don't be so inflexible. I believe that you can do it.”
Lu JinNian waved his hand at him, using his eyes to support him to 'quickly return'. Then, he leisurely picked up the tea offered by the servants of the Jing Zhao Estate and picked up another piece of dessert.
Pei Yu felt funny for no reason. He couldn't stand to be angry at her.
Not long after, Pei Yu brought over some news. ”Lord Cui has agreed. However, we'll be listening while you visit.”
This time, it was Lu JinNian's turn to be surprised. ”He agreed so readily?”
For example, they had to be blood relatives, and their relationship could be verified. They didn't need to fill out any application forms to wait for approval. The little thief hawker could be sent to jail, and the bailiff could get a good fee for it.
However, Shen Yin's case was of great importance, and a blood relative's visit to the prison might be an easy task. As a friend who was obsessed with painting, Lu JinNian had thought that Pei Yu would have to go through some tough times.
Pei Yu looked at her with disdain, ”You think I'm not happy that you're letting me pass?”
”Happy, happy,” Lu JinNian stood up from his chair and thought for a moment, ”Shen Yin did not say anything useful, so you suspect that he was concealing it and wanted to use the prison to find a way to break through?”
It wasn't as if Huai Rou didn't have any interrogation techniques, it seemed like Shen Yin really wasn't tortured.
Pei Yu gave a start, ”I really don't know what can be hidden from you.”
”You're too polite, just naturally smart.”
”…”
