The sound of "knock knock" footsteps gradually approached, and in a moment they were outside the hall. Pen fun and pavilion www.biquge.info

Who would walk so stomping?

I was afraid that the person who came deliberately put his pace down, just to remind the people in the house that "someone is coming", Xie Jiang's eyes narrowed, and he said softly: "The person who came is not the enemy...... Get out of the way. ”

Feng Tai knew that Xie Jiang was not only smart and abnormal, but his mind was no different from that of his own master, so she said to get out of the way...... Fengtai leaned sideways and stepped out of the way.

Only this man let it go, still holding the handle of the knife at his waist with one hand, and touching a short blade with the other hand, and sticking it to the side of his wrist silently.

After a while, someone came up to the corridor and said through the curtain: "The servant is Jin Shi, a subordinate of Xiao Langjun...... Madame is well. ”

Xiao Yi's subordinates? This person's voice is more and more light, but he has never heard it, Xiao Yi has transferred someone again?

Xie Jiang's mind turned around a few times, and he said softly: "Come in and talk." ”

Since it was a friend and not an enemy, Fengtai's expression eased, and he turned around to lift the curtain.

Jin Shi stepped through the door? After a pause, he bowed to Xie Jiang and said, "I've seen Madame." ”

Xie Jiang saw that his eyelids drooped when he gave the salute, his hands were crossed and his chest were level, the etiquette rules were meticulous, and he carried two long knives behind his back, and the silk spikes hanging down from the knife from the time he entered the door to the time he bent down to salute, seemed to be motionless as if he was frozen, and couldn't help but secretly praise, this person is young, and his martial arts skills are good.

Xie Jiang was amazed in his heart, and asked quietly: "Your family Langjun asked you to come...... Is there any news to report? ”

"Yes." Jin Shi still bowed his eyelids and said in a low voice: "Last night, Madame sent the guest list of Gaoyang Jun's banquet, and the servants selected two people from the list, and now these two have gone to the county guard mansion to surrender, and they ...... were all encouraged by Xiao Chen Hou to rebel. ”

This man is fast!

Xie Jiang originally calculated that it would take three or four days to get results, but he never thought that Xiao Yi would move so quickly.

"Well, what else do you have to say?" The corners of Xie Jiang's lips were slightly raised, and he asked softly, "Is he in good shape?" ”

"Lang Jun is all right." Jin Shi replied with his eyelids down, paused for a moment, and said: "At this time, the hunters in the back mountain, the servants who sweep the yard, and the nearby medicine pickers are all dressed up as freehand leaders. Lang Junyan ...... If the lady wants to use people, she can draw a circle with stucco on the back wall of the house. ”

Draw a circle on the wall at the back of the house?

Xie Jiang saw that Jin Shi's expression was serious, so he couldn't help but smile and nodded: "Well, go back and tell your family Langjun, just say I wrote it down." ”

"The servant is leaving." Jin Shi bowed again. Only when this person straightened his waist, his eyes swept from Fengtai's wrist......

Fengtai smiled, and raised his hand as if nothing happened.

Jin Shi's face was expressionless, and he turned around and walked out of the hall door.

Hearing the footsteps and "knocking" out of the yard, Xie Jiang bent his eyebrows and said, "This person is interesting." ”

"It's not funny." Feng Tai thought for a moment and said in a deep voice: "The Great Chu Jin clan was originally a secret person of the royal family, specially designed to protect the reigning king, and also to secretly deal with rebellion for the reigning king. ”

"Such a rebellious event, Chang Bi must report to the one above."

Now that Xiao Yi has already made a move, Xie Jiang put aside this remark and said firmly: "Coupled with Gao Yangjun's report to the banquet guest post, I don't think the head student is alert." ”

Fengtai bowed down and said, "Madame will rest first, and the servant will go and see if there is any news." With that, he took two steps back and waited until he was far away from his seat before turning around and going out.

Liang? County.

It was nearly evening, and most of the shops on the street were closed. A black-painted carriage came out of the alley and turned straight onto East Street.

waited for the carriage to drive out for more than ten zhang, and Wu Liu and Xiao Shen went out of the alley wine shop.

Wu Liu looked at the carriage road in the distance: "You go and find out what the identity of this family is in the alley, I'll follow and see." ”

The attendant whispered in reply, and then dodged into the alley.

At this time, there are few pedestrians on the long street, and horse-drawn carriages are also conspicuous when they pass by. Wu Liu raised his hand to press the bamboo hat and quickly followed behind the carriage.

After driving through the end of East Street, the carriage slowly stopped, but when the curtain of the carriage waved, someone leaned out.

Glancing at the left-hand side, there was a man sighing and closing the stall, Wu Liu's body turned, leaned up and asked, "Is there any bread?" ”

He only asked, and the corners of his eyes slanted from under the bamboo hat, still paying attention to the movement of the people in the car.

The man who leaned out really looked left and right to investigate the movement.

The man who sells cakes only sells about a dozen white cakes a day, and he is worried about the rest of these to eat, and he can't sell them...... How many do you want to buy? As he spoke, he lifted the cloth towel on the bamboo dustpan.

Wu Liu said in a low voice: "Take two." He took out two pieces of copper and handed them over.

The bread seller took the copper in one hand, took two cakes in the other hand and handed them to Wu Liu, and said, "Do you see that carriage at your feet?" The noble man walked around this side every day at this hour. Saying that, he looked puzzled, "It turns out that I always buy a few cakes, but I don't know why I didn't stop today?" ”

Walk around this side every day?

Wu Liu's heart moved, and he raised his hand to take the cake: "Do you know that nobleman?" ”

The bread seller nodded: "That noble man always goes to the empty house in the alley." As he spoke, he seemed to be afraid that Wuliu would not believe it, so he leaned over and pointed to the end of the street and asked him to look, "Oh! It's the alley at the end. ”

What's so nice about an empty house?

I'm afraid that there are some important people or important things hidden in it.

Wu Liu pondered for a moment, caught a glimpse of the carriage moving forward again, thought about it, took out seven or eight more coppers and put them in the bamboo dustpan, lowered his voice and asked, "Don't hide it from my brother, the eldest lady of a certain family is afraid...... Outer room. "Brother, why don't you write down how many times a day he comes, and how long he stays each time, what can my brother do?" ”

A few extra coppers suddenly appeared out of thin air, and there was no need to build half a penny.

The bread seller smiled and said, "Do it well, your wife...... Alas! Come back later, and go home after seeing the foot. ”

Wuliu nodded, tugged the cake into his sleeve, swaggered around and walked back. After walking through the two shops, the man saw Xiao Shen coming over, so he squinted his eyes, glanced at him, and turned into the alley next to him.

Xiao Shen also followed leisurely.

At this time, the sky was getting dark, and the houses in the alley were closed, and Wuliu stopped. Xiao Shen stepped forward and said, "Sixth brother lost it?" ”

Wu Liu shook his head and smiled bitterly: "The person in the car is very vigilant, I am afraid that after a long time, he will show his traces, and it will be inappropriate to startle the snake at that time." Speaking of this, his tone plummeted: "Can you find out the details of that family?" ”

Xiao Shen said in a low voice: "The head of this household is a wealthy merchant in this county, and his identity is not very special, but there is a strange ....... Speaking of this, he paused for a moment, and looked up at Wuliu hesitantly.

"What's so strange?" Wuliu frowned and asked.

Xiao Shen looked around and saw that there was no half of a figure in the alley, so he leaned closer and muttered in a low voice: "This rich merchant has been selling jade and antiques since last year, and the neighbors only know that he is transporting things back in the middle of the night." As for what is transported...... This man is hiding it tightly. ”

Selling land and things shows that this rich merchant is raising money.

As for shipping back...... Presumably, the rich merchant bought something with his money.

Looks like we need to go to the empty house to find out.

Twisting his eyebrows and thinking for a moment, Wu Liu commanded in a low voice: "There is an empty house at the end of the street, go up to explore the ...... tonight" After saying half a sentence, he jumped between his eyebrows, took out two cakes from his sleeve pocket, took a bite of it, and handed it to Xiao Shen: "This person must still be in the house now, and wait for him to leave." ”

Xiao Shen didn't shirk it, took it and ate it in a big bite.

The two of them ate the cakes, and after waiting for nearly half an hour, Wu Liu clapped his hands and said, "Let's go." ”

The two came out of the alley, Wu Liu turned east, saw the cake stall from a distance, and saw the cake seller stretching his neck to look left and right, Wu Liu hurriedly stepped forward and asked, "Is there any more cake?" ”

The bread seller turned around and saw that it was him, and immediately smiled: "Yes, the one just now asked someone to buy twenty more cakes, and now there are two left, just give them at your feet." ”

Buying twenty cakes at once, is it possible that there are more people in the empty house?

Wu Liu's brows furrowed slightly, and he took the cake and said, "So...... But it's disrespectful. ”

The bread seller had already packed up the carbon stove dustpan, and after paying the "errand" at this time, he took the burden and said goodbye: "If you don't go back, I'm afraid that the Hun family will come to look for it, and the person will leave." ”

Wuliu arched his hand.

Seeing him drift away and drift away, Wu Liu pulled Xiao Shen and mouthed Nunu at the end of the street.

At this time, the night was dark, and the streets were already cut off from pedestrians and cars.

The two of them simply walked east along the path outside the shop on the side of the road, and when they reached the end of the street, they saw a deep and bottomless alley.
