Blinking, Ren Xiaoyao looked confused, and asked suspiciously: "Old Pan is unstable? What do you mean? Is it unsteady walking or riding in a car? It's normal for the elderly to be unstable when they're old, what's there to say? ”

Xiao Huaiyuan couldn't cry or laugh: "If you pretend to be confused again, I won't say anything, just do whatever you like." Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info"

Ren Xiaoyao quickly put on a sycophantic expression, and said with a flattering smile: "Brother Xiao, how do you say this, who are our brothers with whom, why bother to see outside?" I didn't do anything to you when you stepped on my little gray ash last time, come, tell me, what's going on? ”

Xiao Huaiyuan glanced at him weakly, and sighed: "Pan Shangshu may be rebelling recently, you may have known about this for a long time." But I'm sure you don't know which generals in the army secretly colluded with Pan Shangshu to usurp the throne, right? ”

Ren Xiaoyao's eyes lit up, and he nodded quickly: "Yes, yes, I really can't find out about this, don't you know?" After speaking, Ren Xiaoyao looked at him with great expectation, and secretly made up his mind: if this kid really knew, he would have to be arrested for everything, tortured, get the list in hand, and then go to the emperor to ask for credit......

Xiao Huaiyuan smiled bitterly and spread his hands: "I don't know either." ”

Ren Xiaoyao's face collapsed when he heard this, and he said in an unkind tone: "It's fun to play people, right?" I don't know if you're still so mysterious, trying to tease me? ”

Xiao Huaiyuan smiled: "I don't know, but the prince knows." Although Pan Shangshu and the prince are said to be a teacher-student relationship, they have been obviously in a hostile situation recently, Pan Shangshu rebelled, but it was the prince's country that he wanted to rob, how could the prince tolerate him? Therefore, I believe that the prince must have secretly used his power to check Pan Shangshu, and it is more likely that the prince already has a complete list of Pan party in his hands, including the generals in the army. ”

Ren Xiaoyao was puzzled: "Since the prince knows that Pan Shangshu is going to rebel, why didn't he give the list to the emperor?" ”

Xiao Huaiyuan's smile was full of ridicule: "The emperor's throne is a good thing, the prince estimates that he has the idea of sitting on the mountain and watching the tiger fight, no matter who loses or wins, it will be good for him, the snipe and the clam are fighting, the prince wants to be the fisherman, and he handed in the list, how can he benefit?" ”

Ren Xiaoyao suddenly, in terms of political sensitivity, his current level is about the same as an idiot, he has been an official for so long, if there is no emperor to cover him, a hundred heads are not enough for others to cut off, it seems that he will have to be shrewd in the future.

Glancing around, Ren Xiaoyao said: "As soon as you came in just now, you rushed to the books in the cellar, do you think that the list found by the prince is hidden in these books?" ”

Xiao Huaiyuan smiled bitterly and shook his head: "I'm just coming in to try my luck, after all, I've searched all the land I can find in the Prince's Mansion, I haven't been to this garden yet, I want to try to find ......"

"Did you find it?"

"Do you look at my expression, like I found it?"

"It's not like it, it's a bit like my wife running away with someone, -- it's very frustrating, isn't it? Think green? ”

“………”――

Xiao Huaiyuan was busy working, Ren Xiaoyao was not idle, he searched around, and finally found the legendary century-old wine at the bottom of the shelf.

Overjoyed, Ren Xiaoyao picked up the wine jar and carefully smashed the mud cover that sealed the jar, and suddenly a rich aroma of wine filled the entire cellar.

Xiao Huaiyuan snorted and exclaimed, "It's so fragrant!" ”

Ren Yao smiled proudly: "A hundred years of good wine, of course fragrant." I don't know which fool buried it, and I didn't want to drink it after a hundred years of burial, it's good, it's all cheap for me, haha......"

Xiao Huaiyuan swallowed his saliva and hurriedly corrected: "Wrong, it's cheap for us, you can't eat alone......"

In fact, the wine is only half a jar, no matter how tightly sealed, so many years have passed, the wine in the altar has also volatilized a lot, take a closer look, the wine is amber, like a large piece of natural agate, in the altar full of brown light. After years of fermentation, the wine has become so thick that it shakes slightly, like a jar of slimy paste. Although he has never drunk a hundred years of good wine, Ren Xiaoyao knows that this jar of wine must not be drunk directly, and it is said that it is necessary to mix it with three percent of the new wine in a ratio of seven to three, and mix it with it to drink it to bring out the taste.

After looking around, Ren Xiaoyao finally found a few more jars of new wine, mixed the new wine into the old wine in proportion, shook it, and then patted Xiao Huaiyuan: "Hey, you come and taste it, see if it tastes good, be careful not to spill it, this wine is on this altar all over the world, and sprinkling a drop is a crime against all mankind......"

Xiao Huaiyuan's wine worm was on his brain, and he ignored Ren Xiaoyao, happily picked up the wine jar, took a sip carefully, and then squinted and stood still, as if he couldn't catch his breath, Ren Xiaoyao was startled,! Could this wine be a set set by the prince, and it was poisoned, right? Luckily, he drank it first......

After a while, I saw Xiao Huaiyuan breathe out for a long time, his eyes were shining, his face was radiant, and he praised: "It is worthy of being a century-old good wine, and it is worthy of its reputation!" ”

Turning his head to look at Ren Xiaoyao, Xiao Huaiyuan wondered, "Why don't you drink?" ”

Ren Xiaoyao's eyes rolled, and he said with a strange expression: "...... I'm not in a hurry, I'll drink it later. ”

A pillar of incense time passed.

Ren Xiaoyao took a closer look at Xiao Huaiyuan's face, and then asked, "Do you have any discomfort Ren?" ”

Xiao Huaiyuan thought about it, shook his head and said, "No." ”

Ren Xiaoyao smiled with satisfaction, picked up the wine jar, took a small sip, tasted it carefully, and praised loudly: "Good wine, drink it once in this life, it's worth dying!" ”

Xiao Huaiyuan was puzzled: "Why didn't you drink it just now?" Why are you drinking it again now? ”

Ren Xiaoyao smiled: "In case it is poisonous, wouldn't my death be as light as a feather?" So I'll have to wait, if you don't die after drinking, it's not too late for me to drink again, hehe......"

What about this kid testing me for poison? It's so shameless!

Xiao Huaiyuan snorted dissatisfiedly: "Didn't you say that it was worth dying after drinking?" What kind of poison are you afraid of? ”

Ren Xiaoyao was stunned and said: "What I said is just a scene, do you believe this?" Too naïve, right? ”

“………”

The time for the two to enter the cellar is not short, Xiao Huaiyuan has not been able to find what he wants, after discussing it, the two decided to retreat, otherwise it will not be good to be discovered, Ren Xiaoyao is now an official, and the prince will definitely not do anything to him, but Xiao Huaiyuan's fate is more miserable, strictly speaking, this guy belongs to the category of "house thief", and it is a dead word in anyone's hands.

Seeing Ren Xiaoyao walking out happily with the wine jar, Xiao Huaiyuan finally began to worry after realizing it.

"Hey, Brother Ren, isn't it okay to taste this wine? Why do you still take it away? Do you really want to steal it? ”

Ren Xiaoyao gave him a strange look: "Are you okay?" I've been busy for a long time now, just for this jar of wine, and if I don't take it away, do you want me to finish it here? ”

Xiao Huaiyuan smiled bitterly: "What if the prince sends someone to fetch it to entertain guests?" ”

Pursed his mouth, Ren Xiaoyao said: "Didn't you see? I found an identical jar and put it there, filled with new wine, anyway, it was drinking, and the new wine and old wine were not all the same. ”

Can that be the same? Xiao Huaiyuan rolled his eyes: "What if the prince finds out?" ”

Ren Xiaoyao was dumbfounded: "What's the matter with me?" You found the cellar first, you opened the lock on the door, you turned the books on the shelves, and even the wine was drunk first......"

After speaking, Ren Xiaoyao looked vigilant, glared and said, "Could it be that you want to frame me?" ”

Xiao Huaiyuan's face was ugly. ~~

He felt that he was calculated by Ren Xiaoyao again, since he met Ren Xiaoyao, he never seemed to take advantage, that guy was always able to stand in the perspective of a victim, get the benefits he wanted to the maximum, and do everything possible to let others help him carry the black cauldron. What's even more maddening is that he never seems to be ashamed of it, as if it was a matter of course.

Xiao Huaiyuan deeply felt that before he reached the shameless realm of Ren Xiaoyao, it was better to keep a little distance from him, otherwise it would always be himself who suffered, and it might affect everything he did in the future and lose confidence in the beautiful side of human nature. ――There shouldn't be many people like Ren Xiaoyao in this world, right? Thankfully, not much.

Xiao Huaiyuan, who had been searching in the cellar for a long time but found nothing, said goodbye to Ren Xiaoyao with a blank expression. As for the hundred-year-old wine that was tightly hugged in Ren Xiaoyao's arms, Xiao Huaiyuan didn't even look at it. It's not that he's not interested, but he knows that what Ren Xiaoyao looks at definitely doesn't have his share, it's better to be out of sight.

Ren Xiaoyao was very satisfied with Xiao Huaiyuan's curiosity.

To be honest, he didn't plan to share this good wine with Xiao Huaiyuan at all, although the two worked together to be thieves, but everyone's purpose was different. He didn't find what he was looking for, but he did, and there was no reason to share what he fancied with him. What is "thief also has a way"? It depends on how you understand this, Ren Xiaoyao thinks that this word means to tell those who partner with thieves that they must first understand what they want, and then draw a line, what I want, no one wants to touch, what I don't want, you can take it, this is called "thieves also have a way", no rules can not be Ren Yuan.

Ren Xiaoyao has always been proud of his super comprehension skills, and he feels that he is very gifted and a very intelligent person.

After Xiao Huaiyuan left, Ren Xiaoyao found two skins filled with water in the cellar, carefully poured the wine in the jar into them, and then lifted his coat and carefully tied the skins around his waist.

As for the other treasures in the cellar, Ren reluctantly glanced at them, and finally decided to give up.

You can't do too much to take advantage of things, pay attention to proportions in everything, you can't have both fish and bear's paws, and it's difficult for mature women and Lori to fly together......

Patting the skin on his waist, Ren Xiaoyao felt very full, after coming out of the cellar, he didn't say hello to the prince, Shi Shiran walked out of the door of Yihong Garden, he planned to go back. The stupid literati in it shook their heads and chanted poems against each other, Ren Xiaoyao didn't plan to mix blindly with them, it's better to be a low-key person, in his previous life, he memorized so many classic and wonderful Tang poems and Song lyrics, and read a few poems casually, are those literati still alive?

As for the reaction of His Royal Highness the Crown Prince to find that the century-old wine that he had used to show off to his guests was missing......

cough, Young Master Ben is very busy, and he doesn't have time to pay attention to such a trivial matter, besides, this matter was done by Xiao Huaiyuan, what does it have to do with Young Master Ben?

After getting into the carriage, Ren Xiaoyao hurriedly instructed the coachman to catch the car, and the carriage left Yihong Garden quickly.

Ren Xiaoyao was smiling happily in the carriage, a little fox who stole a chicken but was not caught by the hunter, and his mood at this time must be very happy.

"Lord Ren, can you slow down? Subordinate motion sickness ......" Without warning, Vincent's extremely ordinary face stretched out from the back of the carriage to Ren Xiaoyao, his face full of discomfort and pain.

"Wow-" Ren Xiaoyao shouted in horror, and the carriage drifted away in Ren Xiaoyao's screams.

"Bang!"

“………”――

The carriage swayed as the road jolted.

Inside the carriage, Vinson sat expressionlessly across from Ren Yao, business as usual, except for a new bruise in his left eye socket.

Ren Xiaoyao looked at Wen Sen with a trace of guilt in his eyes, and when Wen Sen pursed the corners of his mouth, like a wronged child, the guilt in Ren Xiaoyao's heart became deeper and deeper.

The atmosphere of "cough cough ......" was very embarrassing, and Ren had no choice but to break the silence in the carriage.

"Do you know it's wrong?" Although he felt guilty, it has become Ren Xiaoyao's habit to beat him up, and pushing bad things to others is already a knee-jerk reaction for Ren Xiaoyao.

"Got it." Vinson was submissive, as docile as his little daughter-in-law who had just passed the door.

"What did you do wrong?"

"Subordinates shouldn't appear in front of adults in such a scary way......" The bruise in his left eye socket told Vinson that the seemingly weak Lord Ren in front of him was very explosive after being frightened. When Ren Xiaoyao was so frightened by the sudden appearance of Vincent that he screamed loudly, he didn't even see who Ren was, and without saying a word, he made an extremely powerful move to "smash the Yellow Dragon" and hit Vincent in the eye socket, which was a very painful lesson for Vincent.

Snorted, Ren Xiaoyao reprimanded with a straight face: "It's good to know that it's wrong." I told you before that when you appear in front of this official, you must be in the most normal way, you are good, you scare me every time, can you blame me for beating you? Do you think you were wronged by this punch? ”

"I don't understand, is it the virtue of doing what you do? Our shadow is an official legal organization certified by the imperial court, one has not stolen or two robbed, and it is not a folk cult, can you be so sneaky? To put it nicely, you are called alert, but if you don't say it well, you look like a thief. You can be regarded as the second person in the shadow, they all say that the upper beam is not right and the lower beam is crooked, if our shadow can learn from you like this, okay, a nest of thieves, take the outside for a walk, like a group of people who parade the streets indiscriminately, the people will laugh off their big teeth, is it not ashamed? ”

The more Ren Xiaoyao spoke, the more he felt that the punch just now was right, he was too conniving with his subordinates, and he suddenly appeared in front of him like a ghost in the future, scaring himself to death, who will pay for his life?

Vincent also buried his head lower and lower, and swept away the grievances of being beaten in vain, he felt more and more that Lord Ren's punch was right, he deserved it, and if the adult didn't beat this punch, God would not tolerate it.

"Why are you coming to me?" After the reprimand, Ren Xiaoyao felt refreshed, and then asked the main question.

Wen Sen smiled flatteringly: "My lord, my subordinates have sent you information......

"What information?"

"Regarding Pan Shangshu's rebellion, I have already raised some eyebrows, and my subordinates have been inquiring day and night, and it has been confirmed that there are two routes in the army that have not been very quiet recently......" Wen Sen leaned into Ren Xiaoyao's ear and whispered.

"Hey, this has made you find out, and your ability is not small." Ren Xiaoyao's eyes lit up, and he had a deeper understanding of the ability of shadows in his heart. No wonder the prince wants to fight the idea of shadows, this group of people under his command is indeed talented. Speaking of such a heavily guarded place in the army, how did they find out the information?

"Thanks to the adult, this is all the craftsmanship of the subordinates to eat, hehe, it's not satisfactory." Vinson smiled modestly.

"Yes, very good! Lao Wen, you have done a good job, I will help you remember your credits, and in the future, you will follow your own officials, be promoted, make a fortune, and hug women, all of which are indispensable! ”

"And the brethren who have received this information shall be given my commandment, and their merits shall be recorded in the merit book, and each of them shall be rewarded with a thousand taels of silver."

Wen Sen was overjoyed, and said again and again: "Thank you, Lord for the reward." ”

"Have you reported this to the emperor?"

"Not yet, my lord, you are the subordinate of the subordinate, and the subordinate must be the first to report to you if there is anything." Vinson, who had been beaten, was more well-behaved and sensible than before.

Ren Xiaoyao smiled with satisfaction, Lao Wen is a good person, he knows the general situation, and he doesn't take credit from his boss, such important information, of course, Young Master Ben has to report it to the emperor in person.

"Old Wen, this official will reward you with another thousand taels of silver, and you must maintain your state of not being arrogant or impatient in the future, I am optimistic about you......"

Wen Sen smiled when he heard this, and the bruise on his left eye socket made the whole smiling face look incongruous, like a fly stung on the white and tender bun.

“…… Old Wen, go home and take a hot máo towel to compress your eyes, before the bruises disappear, try not to laugh, ting ugly. Ren Xiaoyao hesitated for a moment, and out of consideration for the overall image of the shadow, he decided to tell the truth.

"........." (To be continued.) )
