Chapter 17: Zhang Xuan's Letter
"I heard that there is a stunning beauty living in Sister-in-law Li's house. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info"
"This matter has been spread for a long time, and I heard that it is Sister-in-law Li's sister, who is well-informed and reasonable, and it is said that she is not married. ”
"But I heard that the girl is now working in Qionghua Pavilion and has a close relationship with the king's steward. ”
"yes, who did you listen to? ”
"I heard from the people of Qionghua Pavilion, it is said that the girl is as beautiful as a fairy, and her family background is not prominent, but she is also a wealthy family. ”
“……”
Since eavesdropping that night, Wang Zhou has also let go of his reserve as a scholar and has become blatant, but in a few days, everyone knows that Bai Li lives in a simple place, Wang Zhou is a man of the year in this Northern Desert City, and the most important thing is that he is a person from Ni Mansion, which has attracted a lot of attention.
Especially in the past few days, as long as it is the people of Ni Mansion, they are all the objects of discussion among these Shengdou people. Qin Biao's death was rumored in the entire Northern Desert City, and under the anger of Ni Baye, the Zuixiang Pavilion was forced to close, and even the body of the prostitute was hung in front of the Zuixiang Pavilion for many days, but the mastermind behind Qin Biao's death has always been nothing.
For this matter, that Ni Baye has not enjoyed himself for several days, not because of Qin Biao's death, but because of the carrier pigeon that fell in the courtyard every day a few days ago, and the messenger was none other than Zhang Xuan.
Zhang Xuan wrote in the letter that someone would murder Ni Baye's life, this person's gender is unknown, his name is unknown, his appearance is unknown, his age is unknown, and his physical characteristics are unknown.
With that rouge box alone, Zhang Xuan really didn't dare to be sure that the killer was a woman, but what was certain was that this person must have something to do with Ni Baye, either to assassinate Ni Baye, or a killer raised by Ni Baye.
Zhang Xuan's letter, on the one hand, is to remind Ni Baye that there will be killers to assassinate him, and on the other hand, it is used to remind Ni Baye that the six doors are already eyeing him, and if he doesn't want to fight for his life one day, he will be restrained from his arrogance.
"Eighth master, Commander Liu asks to see you. The little servant knocked on the door and walked outside.
"Come in. ”
The door opened, and a burly middle-aged man in armor walked into the room quickly, stood respectfully at a distance from Ni Baye, knelt down on one knee and saluted, "Eighth Master." ”
"What's the matter? Sitting at the table, Ni Baye frowned slightly, and his heart was heavy.
"Eighth Master, we have been detaining those foreign businessmen for seven days, and foreign businessmen from all over the country have jointly written to Lord Zheng, and Lord Zheng asked me to ask the meaning of Eighth Master. ”
"Merchant, my Eighth Master Ni is not a tyrannical person, let them go, but you have to leave something, you reply to Lord Zheng like this, he will understand." Ni Baye said.
It has been ten days since Qin Biao was killed, and during this period, many suspected outsiders have been arrested, which has made the entire Northern Desert City panic, and it is time to put an end to this matter.
As Commander Liu retreated, Ni Baye lifted the brush on the table, quickly wrote down a letter, and suddenly said: "Mei Gongzi, this is a letter to Shang Gongzi, I'm tired of you." The voice was very low, so low that if he hadn't stood beside Ni Baye, no one would have heard him at all.
When the words fell, a strange man dressed in black suddenly appeared at the table, and by looking at the outfit on his body, he could tell at a glance that this person must not be from the Yue Kingdom, but like a Dongying ninja, and, looking at the figure, it doesn't look like a man, but like a woman.
The man in black didn't speak, stretched out his hand to take the letter in Ni Baye's hand casually, and disappeared into the room quietly.
"Sanbao, get ready, go to Qionghua Pavilion for a walk, it's been a long time, Wang Zhou hasn't come to Ni's Mansion for a long time, bring the Hui ink sent by Shanggongzi some time ago, and send it to Wang Zhou. Ni Baye said loudly.
The little guy outside the door immediately responded happily, since he became Ni Baye's personal attendant, he has never been out.
Ni Baye went out, not as grand as he imagined, followed by only the sedan chair man, and a young boy who looked very young, looking at his figure and appearance, it is estimated that his age is about twelve or thirteen years old, his eyes are very small, and he looks very shrewd.
The young boy followed the palanquin, and walked majestically, like a cunning fox following the tiger. He didn't even notice the disdainful glances of the vendors and passers-by on both sides of the street looking at the child.
But most people still try to carefully dodge Ni Baye's sedan chair and this child, half a year ago, this child was just a little beggar in the Northern Desert City, and now, he has become a person next to Ni Baye, and the huge contrast makes the child very arrogant.
Looking at the small stalls on both sides, the child suddenly saw an old man sitting on the side of the road resting with a sugar gourd shelf, and immediately rushed over and glared angrily!
This damn old man, who had just stolen a sugar gourd from him, was driven away by him with a stick, and today he will take revenge.
The old man had already seen the child, looked at the satin clothes worn by the child, and rubbed his eyes in disbelief. I saw that the young boy didn't think about the old man in front of him at all, and he knocked the old man to the ground with one kick and pushed the sugar gourd shelf to the ground.
The red sugar gourds were stained with a lot of dust, but the child still seemed to be angry, and stepped on the sugar gourds fiercely.
The old man picked up the stones on the side of the road and deliberately smashed them, but he heard Ni Baye's loud voice suddenly sound: "Sanbao, don't mess around." Ni Baye's voice was indifferent, just treating this as a nonsense of the three treasures.
"Yes, Eighth Master. ”
Sanbao turned around and saw the old man holding the stone in both hands, and kicked the old man to the ground with one kick, and the stone in the old man's hand smashed on the old man's ankle impartially, making a crisp sound, Sanbao snorted coldly, and then threw down dozens of copper plates and walked away.
The Three Treasures are no longer the Three Treasures that you were able to bully.
The crowd around didn't dare to pay attention to the old man who fell to the ground at this moment, until the sedan chair of Sanbao and Ni Baye walked out of this street, and I don't know where a noble man in a round-necked brocade robe suddenly appeared, picked up the old man, picked up the copper plate on the ground, and quickly went to the nearest medical hall.
There is also a seriously ill old woman in this old man's house, and I hope they can survive this catastrophe.
"If this old man hadn't provoked the Three Treasures at the beginning, I'm afraid he wouldn't have been able to provoke such a catastrophe today. "Many people think so in their hearts.
