Anle Palace

In the hall of the front yard

In the midst of the staggered fundraising, Zhao Buxing looked at the already smoked crowd below, smiled, picked up the teacup on the desk, smelled it, and then raised it, shouting: "Everyone, drink to win!"

The Jianghu guests below, the martial arts people shouted: "Drink to win!"

As he spoke, Zhao Uneasy drank all the tea in the cup. Other charlatans continued to surround those glamorous singers, trying to seduce one or two.

Du Qingyuan, who was next to Zhao Uneasy, saw this scene and said with a smile: "Shizi, is there such a big difference between drinking wine and drinking tea? Why do you drink a glass of wine to try?"

Zhao Anjing smiled slightly: "I don't want to get drunk, so I can only drink tea, because I think getting drunk is a very terrible thing." Brother Du, if you look at the profligate appearance of those people below, you will know how ugly it is when you get drunk. It's a sad thing that these people can't even control their own thoughts. ”

Du Qingyuan nodded slightly, took a sip of wine, and asked curiously, "Shizi is like this, are you tired?"

How could Zhao Anjing not understand such a subtext? Du Qingyuan's meaning was that a person who tensed himself all the time and did not dare to relax in the slightest, how tired would he be?

Zhao Yi smiled and said honestly: "I'm not tired." ”

Du Qingyuan said with a smile: "Why aren't you tired?"

Zhao said: "Because, the ancestors of the Zhao family are too lazy, so Zhao must be diligent and make up for the laziness of the ancestors." This is Zhao's heart. ”

Du Qingyuan saw him talking like this, sighed, and said, "However, with someone like you, I am afraid that I will die in your hands." ”

Zhao Buxing shook his fan and said, "You may die in my hands, but Perak Hall will always exist." Does Brother Du think so?"

Du Qingyuan smiled and said, "Shizi, I'm tired. ”

As he spoke, Du Qingyuan pulled away and left.

Zhao smiled and watched him out of the hall. Gently patted the folding fan of the fragrant bamboo in his hand and said, "You can think about it." ”

Du Qingyuan turned around, smiled faintly at him, and ignored it.

Then, Zhao Buyi retracted his gaze and continued to look at the wandering people under the main seat, feeling like he was dominating the world.

Gradually, Zhao's uneasy eyes were blurred, he stared at the crowd for a long time, raised his glass again and shouted: "Drink to win!"

As soon as these words came out, the people below stopped their actions, raised the nearest wine glass, and shouted with him: "Drink with the prince of the world!"

Zhao is drunk, and tea can also be intoxicating, but no one knows.

In this Anle Palace, there is a drunken gold fan.

There was a singer in the palace who was kissed by a hero and pushed him away with a sneer. Then he bypassed the hero and whispered a word to the servant in Tsing Yi next to him with a clever smile.

After the singer left, the servant did not move, and saw a subordinate who had come to serve the food, so he stretched out his foot slightly, and the subordinate stepped on the surface of his foot, and his face was angry, and when he pushed the subordinate away, a note fell into the sleeve of the servant.

The servant was in pain and shouted, "Don't you have long eyes?"

The subordinate bowed his head: "Yes, yes, I hit you." Atonement for all hopes. ”

The servant smiled: "Okay, let's get busy with your going, I see that you are still sensible, and it is estimated that the inner hall is about the same." ”

The subordinate nodded and said, "Thank you for the manager." ”

Immediately after that, the next person will lay out the dishes, and then he will quit.

Then, when he returned to the porch, the servant casually threw the note in his bosom in front of the porch, and then hurried away, waiting to continue walking.

A girl who had just passed by after he left, pretending to be uncomfortable with the hem of her clothes, squatted down to tidy up, and picked up the note.

Then leave as if nothing happened.

Then, when the maid went to the stable, she saw the groom with whom she was good, and said a few words in a warm tone, and then left.

The groom watched the maid leave in fascination, but took out a wax pill in the manger. I dug it out of the crotch of my pants, which pretended to have some itchiness on my lower body.

With just such an action, he had already stuffed the wax pill into the dung door, and then did nothing to feed the horses and tidy up the stables.

About half an hour passed.

A man who looked like a steward came to the stable, looked at the groom and said, "Jiang Shilang, hurry up, there is a business to do, I want you to go out, otherwise the kitchen will not be able to provide food." ”

The groom asked, "Did you buy the little dings?" why did you call me?"

The steward said: "Don't mention it, there are too many guests of the prince, the dishes in the kitchen are not available, and the people in the hands of the second steward have been sent out, but it is still not enough." Hurry up, it's up to you, the first to buy things back. ”

Ma Fu sighed, took the list in the steward's hand, looked at it for a while, and said, "I can't read, and I don't know what to buy." ”

The steward said: "Give the bill to the merchant who buys and sells, and they will naturally understand." ”

The groom agreed.

As he spoke, the steward departed.

The groom set up the car and went out of the Anle Palace.

As he walked through the street in front of the house, the groom let out a fart and shook his pants at random, and the raman fell off and fell in front of a little beggar on the corner.

The little beggar picked up the pill and waited for the coachman to leave.

Then, he walked out of Kapok Street and walked in the direction of Front Street, and in front of a simple restaurant, the little beggar stopped and walked into the restaurant.

begged a Jianghu guest for food: "Uncle, let's eat, the little one has been hungry for two days." ”

The Jianghu guest impatiently threw two cents at him, and the little beggar caught it casually, and a wax pill fell into the soup pot in front of the Jianghu guest.

The little beggar left with a thousand thanks.

The charlatan threw a fly into the soup bowl and shouted, "Man, man, your food is not clean, how can there be such dirt?"

The guy from the restaurant hurried over, saw the contents there, hurriedly apologized, and said nice things.

The Jianghu guest was a violent temper, and he casually overturned the soup pot and reasoned with the guy.

After the basin was overturned, the wax pill rolled at the feet of a scholar in a restaurant. The scholar picked him up, scratched his ear, and stuffed the pill into his ear.

Then, the scholar watched the excitement for a long time, went out of the restaurant, walked around at will, looked left and right.

Finally, I came to Nanzhimen, Huiyou Building.

The scholar patted his cheek lightly, threw away the wax pill in his ear, and rolled at the feet of a shopkeeper.

……

Opposite the Friends Building

Inside a tea shed

There were three people drinking very rough tea from the tea shed.

These three people are scored by three points, one in a dark yellow brocade robe, one in a green coat, and one in a black robe.

The man in Tsing Yi was in his fifties, and sighed and said, "Sure enough, the master of the world is right." This house has become a sieve, it is the fault of the old slave, please punish the prince. ”

The dark yellow brocade robe smiled slightly: "Uncle Chai, this son has not been in Beijing for many years, so he doesn't know much about the affairs of the capital, but he can't let the mansion in Beijing be so deserted. ”

Uncle Chai nodded slightly, and said, "It's the old slave's fault, please give the prince medicine." ”

The brocade robe boy nodded slightly, and said, "After returning to the house, in your room, there is a glass of wine, and you will send the firewood housekeeper alone!"

Steward Chai cried and said, "Slave Xie His Royal Highness rewarded ......"

Zhao Buxing nodded slightly.

Steward Qian sighed, stood up, and left.

Zhao closed his eyes helplessly.

But at this moment, the black-robed man spoke and said, "Zhao Shizi, I followed you all the way, and then I arrived here." I want to ask you a question. ”

Zhao Buxing took a breath and smiled: "It's rare that Brother Ding will ask me questions, you can talk about it." ”

Ding Liang said: "I really don't understand, you already know that our biggest enemy in the capital is the Absolute Prince, and it is the proper intention of the Absolute Prince's secret line to be planted in your mansion." No matter how unbelievable it is, it is also expected by you, arrange for a subordinate to come over and get all the news, but why do you want to come by yourself?"

Zhao Buxing smiled slightly and said, "Because the Absolute Prince has not installed anyone in the palace, these people are not the people of the Absolute Prince." ”

Ding Liang was curious and asked, "Oh, how can you see that these people are not the sons of the Absolute Prince? You just said that this is the business of the Jing'an Hou family. ”

Zhao Yi smiled and said: "This is really the business of the Absolute Son's family, but those people are not the Absolute Prince's people. The beggar at the back door of the house is just an introduction that leads us to chase this line. And Ma Fu had already taken the news away and went to the Juewei Building across the street in front of the house. ”

Ding Liang shook his head and said, "I don't understand." ”

Zhao Yi chuckled lightly and said, "There's nothing I don't understand, they just want me to focus all my attention on the Absolute Prince, so as to be less wary of them." ”

……

Juewei Building, 4th Floor, Accord.

Now only Wu Fenyu and Yue Yongxing are left inside, Liu Chuanfu couldn't stand the squeeze between the two just now, and left angrily.

At this time, Yue Yongxing held the note in his hand, his face was gloomy, he was silent for a long time, and he seemed to be a little annoyed.

Wu Fenyu asked, "Brother Yongxing, why are you so troubled?"

Yue Yongxing bit it, stared at Wu Fenyu, and said with a sneer: "The steward who was placed next to Zhao Anjing in your family has been exposed, idiot! The surname Wu, who asked you to use him? The person who was finally arranged to go in was pulled out like this, do you still have any brains?"

Wu Fenyu saw that he was disrespectful, and immediately became angry, and said angrily: "Brother Yongxing, I have never let that steward pass on any information in Zhao Wangfu! After those people from our family handed it over to you, I didn't ask again, and you arranged it single-handedly, but now you say that I used that steward, what is the reason?"

Yue Yongxing was puzzled: "It's really not you?"

Wu Fenyu sneered and ignored him.

Yue Yongxing asked, "Who could it be?"

Wu Fenyu said curiously: "Could it be a peerless son, in order to draw Zhao's uneasy gaze to our side?"

Yue Yongxing thought for a long time, shook his head and said, "It's not a peerless son, because it's not necessary." Doing so is just a waste of time, and Jue Gongzi would not use such a clumsy method. ”

Wu Fenyu frowned: "Who could it be?"
