Chapter 33: There is a mystery in Xijing
The merchant followed the monk into Xijing City in a daze, and directly entered the General's Mansion, and after the goods on his body were bought by the housekeeper of the General's Mansion at several times the high price, he stood in Xijing City in a daze.
"Purple Gold Jade Vase?"
Come to think of it, this bizarre experience is probably related to the word that the monk said when he saw him.
Is the purple gold jade bottle on the goods you purchased?
No way
This is simply ridiculous.
The goods on my body were all purchased by myself in the Western Regions, and I had not only checked them before and after departure, but it was impossible for them to appear in my own goods.
Since it is not in its own goods, why did the General's Mansion buy it at a high price and then release itself?
I can't figure it out, I can't figure it out.
But now that you've made money, it doesn't matter if you want to get through it or not. Peng Xiaotian is content and happy.
Shaking his head, Peng Xiaotian stepped into a restaurant in Xijing City with a silver ticket of tens of thousands of taels, and walked up to the second floor where he had never dared to reach before, asking for wine and food.
It was just noon, and there were not many customers in the tavern. The merchant who sits alone in front of a table of food and drinks is very conspicuous, or he has attracted too much attention in the first place.
Looking at the young merchant who had no image at all, a young girl sitting in the corner asked, "Is the purple gold jade bottle really hidden in his goods and transported to Xijing City?"
The young man in Xuanyi who was asked retracted his gaze from the merchant and replied with a smile: "This time for the sake of the Purple Gold Jade Bottle, the Western Regions side is really a stratagem, this person only surfaced today, there is too little information, the Purple Gold Jade Bottle is not in it, and he doesn't dare to say anything." ”
"Hey, it's just a broken bottle, is it that important, it's so troublesome!" the girl pouted, regretting that she had agreed so rashly to help steal the purple gold jade bottle, "I would have known that I would have changed his wish!"
The smile of the young man in Xuanyi remained unchanged: "The princess is not impatient, I will definitely help the princess find the bottle to fulfill the promise." ”
"Well," said the girl, who lay on the table with her hands as a cushion, and looked at the food in front of her in a daze, "why are you always so confident?"
The young man in Xuanyi smiled and did not speak,
The princess of Jianghu lay on the table for a while, and when she looked up, she found that Xu Heng was looking at the merchant again, and she looked over, just in time to see a person walking up the stairs. The man is burly, walking in a tiger's step, although he is wearing civilian clothes, but the military temperament that cannot be concealed is remarkable.
The man walked up to the second floor, walked straight to the merchant, sat down with a golden sword, put the saber on the table, and made Peng Xiaotian raise his head with a bang.
"General Lu, General Lu?!" Peng Xiaotian hurriedly vomited the fish in his mouth, wiped his mouth with his sleeve, and exclaimed: "What a coincidence, General Lu also came here to eat?"
"How can it be so coincidental, I'm here to find you!"
Lu Kangshun replied angrily, which frightened Peng Xiaotian, he couldn't sit still, and several times he wanted to stand up, he was pressed by the soldier on the opposite side, and it took a long time to come to his senses, and he quickly poured a glass of wine for the military master, and said in a trembling voice: "Lu, General Lu, don't scare me! What is the big thing for you to come to the villain for?!"
"Hmph!" Lu Kangshun picked up the wine glass, and a cold snort before drinking made Peng Xiaotian tremble, and quickly picked up the wine jug and filled it full, looking at the little businessman's silent appearance, the centurion was even more angry in his heart, and he didn't understand why the general assigned such a task to himself, "The general ordered, let me take you to Xijing City for three days." ”
After speaking, ignoring Peng Xiaotian, who was stunned, took out a stack of silver tickets from his arms: "Lord Huang has even prepared the silver taels for us." ”
The blue and white silver ticket on a white background exuded a fragrance in the air that was invisible to non-merchants, luring Peng Xiaotian to return from a blank space, he carefully glanced at the first silver ticket, only one glance, the denomination on it made his eyes bloom, and he quickly drank a glass of wine to suppress the shock.
After drinking, all I could think about was the thick pile of silver tickets.
Sensing the change in the other party's gaze, Lu Kangshun quickly withdrew the silver ticket into his arms, glanced at his side, retracted his gaze and signaled Peng Xiaotian to lean over, and whispered: "The general gives an order, he will never be untargeted, and he will send me to play with you, there must be something hidden in it, so," Lu Kangshun's eyes sharpened, "You must pay attention to the people and things around you in the past three days, maybe something will happen!"
"What...... What doesn't have to happen?"
"Hmm. Lu Kangshun's expression was serious, "You must be careful, don't be careless" ...... crossed his palm in front of his neck, and said no more.
Falling from elation to the bottom.
Peng Xiaotian sweated like rain.
"The villain is no longer playing, the villain wants to leave ......," Peng Xiaotian said with a sad face.
"No!" Lu Kangshun's eyes were fierce, he dragged Peng Xiaotian up, and walked downstairs with him, "Since Lord Huang said that he wanted me to take you to play in Xijing City for three days, it will be three days, and a quarter of an hour will not be missing!"
Seeing the merchant being carried down the stairs by the soldiers, the princess of the rivers and lakes burst out laughing, "These two people are quite interesting." ”
With the spell of the princess of the rivers and lakes, the words in the distance were heard clearly by the two of them, the princess of the rivers and lakes felt funny, Xu Hengque seemed to have found something else, muttered for a long time, suddenly stood up, and said to the girl who was still lying lazily: "Get up, let's go." ”
The girl didn't even bother to raise her head: "Where are you going?"
"Take a walk around the city first, eat a good meal in the evening, and then do a big job in the evening. ”
"What a big deal?!Okay, good!"
Hearing the words of interest, the girl suddenly became interested, jumped up quickly, and happily followed Xu Heng downstairs.
The two walked into the rain.
……
General's Palace.
As a young man came and went, the house instantly became nervous.
Ru Yan Xin Peng Western Regions Coalition Army stationed outside the General's Mansion, Su Wuhu Army entered the Mansion, and the God of Wealth Temple sent three teams of "Grade 3 or above" 100 people to lay a net in the West Capital City. Just with the raindrops falling from the sky, the situation in Xijing City is tense to the point of breaking out.
However, none of this has anything to do with the eldest lady of the God of Wealth, what really makes her care about is another news.
"That's it, the princess of the rivers and lakes seriously injured Zhong Xiuzhen and broke out of the crowd of 100 people, and Xu Shaoxia was taken away by the princess of the rivers and lakes. ”
After Gong Jingsheng finished speaking, he looked at Su Su's expression with some concern, but as if he had told Xu Heng the news of his disappearance at that time, he couldn't see the ups and downs of his expression. What is the relationship between the two of them, or is it that the eldest lady of the God of Wealth in front of her is different from ordinary women?
Su Su looked out the window at the falling rain and was silent for a long time, and when Gong Jingsheng felt that it was not interesting to stay any longer and was ready to retire, he suddenly said, "The purple gold jade bottle has entered the general's mansion?"
"Hmm......" Gong Jingsheng thought for a moment and said cautiously, "Not necessarily." ”
Su Suxiu frowned: "Didn't you say that the purple gold jade bottle was hidden in the goods of a merchant?"
"After being found by the monks of the Three Realms Temple, the merchant was closely protected, until he was taken into the General's Mansion to put away the goods, and no one could be sure whether the purple gold jade bottle was really hidden in those goods, or if it was Ru Yan Xin Pengshi's trick. ”
"Ming Xiu Plank Dao, just a princess of the rivers and lakes who doesn't know whether it's true or not, is it necessary for him?" Su Su frowned, his eyebrows full of puzzlement.
Gong Jingsheng and Su Su looked at the rain outside the window together, pondered for a long time, and said word by word: "If something goes wrong, there must be a demon, and the Western Regions must have something to ask for." ”
Regarding the heartfelt words of his childhood friend, Su Su said "um" and stopped talking.
Gong Jingsheng turned his head to look at Su Su's cold face, his Adam's apple moved, and he still asked the question: "Su Su, aren't you worried about Xu Shaoxia at all?"
Su Su replied in one sentence: "He said that he would come back on the fourth day." ”
Gong Jingsheng nodded, got up and left.
After Gong Jingsheng left, Su Su looked at the number of yellowed branches in the rain outside the window, and remembered Xu Heng's other words before leaving: "You stay in the General's Mansion first, I will come back in four days." Also, I don't think that Ru Yan Xinpeng will give me the real plan to deliver the purple gold jade bottle, the purple gold jade bottle may be brought in or out of the general's mansion at any time, so you have to be careful these days, don't be taken advantage of by the princess of the rivers and lakes. ”
Xu Heng said that he would come back in four days, and Su Su believed him;
He also said that he wanted Su Su to stay in the General's Mansion, so Su Su was not going to go out to find him;
Now, the appearance of the merchant Peng Xiaotian has made it possible for the purple gold jade bottle to be brought into the general's mansion.
And now, she suddenly had a strange idea
- Was the purple gold jade bottle taken out of the General's Mansion??
