Chapter 245: Retribution

PS. Present the May Day update, don't hurry up to play after reading, remember to vote for the month first. From now on, you can enjoy double monthly passes for the 515 Fan Festival, and you can also take a look at other activities with red envelopes!

Several people solemnly responded.

The emperor's face was very ugly: "I can also guard her." ”

Hongchen secretly wanted to roll his eyes, but he endured it, and said in a good voice: "Your Majesty's blessings are extensive, and Niangniang is a close husband and wife, so naturally you can protect Niangniang, and you don't need to hold the oil lamp, just sit here, presumably those ghosts and ghosts dare not approach Niangniang's body." ”

The emperor's face was softened, and he sat down at the head of the bed, staring at the queen without blinking.

Those doctors can't go.

Outside the door, from top to bottom, all the imperial doctors were tense in their hearts, and the clothes they were wearing were wet inside and out.

Where do you dare to open a prescription, Niangniang is old, when the time comes, but this kind of thing, can they say it to the emperor?

Whoever dares to speak, His Majesty will not have the patience to put people in prison first, and will directly push them out and kill them.

Hongchen checked again, the door was closed, the window was slightly opened, and it couldn't be facing Niangniang, a few palace maids brought screens, blocked the bed slightly, and then ordered someone to hold a sword in his hand and stand at the door to guard, as for the emperor, he can't count on him wherever he sits.

Including the Nine Emperor Prince Li Wang, who she didn't like to see very much, they all listened to her every word with bated breath.

After explaining, she hurriedly left the palace gate, did not take the car, got on the horse and went straight to a few closer spirit masters.

The statue of the Medicine Buddha is there, and it is also a ritual weapon. There are even good quality, the problem is that in the current situation of the queen's mother, the general magic weapon has no big effect, at least a spiritual weapon is needed.

But where can I find the spiritual weapon?

There are a few pieces in Dayun Temple, most of which are used to subdue demons and eliminate demons, and if you want to prolong your life, it will be difficult.

"If only there was a lifeline here."

The so-called lifeline is said to be made by a judge in charge of the book of life and death in the underworld, with a merit pen, dipped in the juice of the grinding of dragon grass. Then he took the silk threads woven by the hands of three hundred and thirty-three great good men. After a hundred years of making, after being made, it is made into a red rope, which is the lifeline. Lifelines can keep people alive.

But you can know this thing just by thinking about it. It's extremely rare. Not to mention anything else, only one has gone through a hundred years, who can afford to wait?

"You can find it. But she can only make people immortal, but she can't live people, and she is of no great use. ”

Hongchen felt very uncomfortable in her heart, several times of divination, all of them were bad omens, although it was not lifeless, but it was also full of dangers, she wanted to ask God to point out a clear path, but she failed repeatedly, either the magic weapon did not respond, or the result was obscure, and she couldn't understand it at all.

It seems that there is only a chance to try it.

It's hard to say about luck, Hongchen thinks she is lucky, but the people around her think that her luck is no worse, she always encounters all kinds of troubles, and others may not have her for more than a year or two in their lives.

Hongchen spun around outside all day.

Don't say it's raining in the sky, and she won't go back even if the knife falls.

Until the sun was about to set, she suddenly felt a little different breath, turned her head to look over, from the shadow of countless vendors, she saw a storefront, the door of the store looked ancient and mottled, even the Pixiu in front of the door was missing an eye, and the plaque was only half left, with the words 'One Step Heaven' written on it, it should be an antique shop.

The people of the Great Zhou Dynasty, especially the people of the capital, love to be vassals and elegant, and there are many antique shops in the capital.

Hongchen glanced at it, walked in, and as soon as he entered the door, he saw that this antique shop was not ordinary.

Antiques inside...... There are at least seven or eight things in Ouchi, and you don't even need to look at the imprint.

A jade ruyi that she played with in Ganquan Palace, and a glass lamp she went in to give to the queen mother were there.

The glass lamp is still a magic weapon, which can make ghostly things appear, and at that time, she was afraid that the palace would not be clean, so she sent a special one.

In addition, the decoration is also quite luxurious, with calligraphy and calligraphy on the wall, and there are many royal pens.

Could it be that it was opened by a relative of the emperor?

Hongchen thought about it for a while, and felt that the boss of this place should be extraordinary, how could ordinary people get the things in the palace...... Moreover, there are many magic weapons inside, all of which are covered with glass covers and placed on the counter, allowing people to watch, which is a bit violent.

But now I don't care about it, and I see a sword hanging on the wall.

The sword is just an ordinary ancient sword, very gorgeous, and there are gems in the shape of the Big Dipper on it, maybe it is a divine weapon, but what Hongchen values is a thumb-sized Medicine Buddha pendant under it.

Medicine Buddha is mostly a Buddha statue, almost no pendant, but also hung on the weapon, this one is very special, look at the material, it should be just ordinary jade, but the carving is first-class, warm and bright, obviously often played with and maintained, very well raised, decorated with silk silk below, red, very thin line made up, Hongchen's gaze fell on the line, almost couldn't suppress the smile that welled up in his heart.

Who will say that she is unlucky in the future? You can find the lifeline by shopping around, and it's such a long one, it's a blessing.

Hongchen hurriedly went over: "How can you sell this sword?" ”

She came out in a hurry, and her dress was not very elaborate, but she did business in the capital, which one could not have a little eyesight.

As for Hongchen's ordinary clothes, the fabric used is also a tribute, and ordinary people may not even see it in their lives.

The shopkeeper was very attentive, and happily leaned over and smiled: "The guest officer is really a good eye, this sword is a good thing at the bottom of our shop's box, the treasure of the town, it is the portable sword of the famous general Sun Yuming of the previous dynasty, and later obtained it for the founding ancestor of our Great Zhou, and was included in the palace, and our master also got it by chance, it is definitely a divine weapon!" ”

Hongchen waved his hand: "How much!" ”

The shopkeeper's face was happy, he didn't expect this girl to be so happy, it seems that she is really not an ordinary person, he rubbed his hands and said softly: "A total of 30,000 taels of silver." ”

Hongchen was stunned.

That's a bit of a lot.

Even in the capital, this silver can buy an excellent house. The last time Luo Niang bought a house, the location was not bad, and it only cost a total of 2,500 taels of silver.

Of course, if you look at the lifeline above, let alone 30,000 taels, it is 130,000 taels, and it was picked up for nothing.

Hongchen didn't intend to take advantage of others in vain, so he nodded and agreed: "I don't have that much in my hand, so I will pay you a silver ticket of 1,000 taels of silver as a deposit." I went back and took it and came back again. ”

She went out this time. There weren't many people with him, and although he had made up his mind to find a magic weapon, even if it was a good magic weapon, a thousand taels of silver was generally enough. Who knew they could find such a thing as a lifeline!

The shopkeeper was stunned.

The so-called sky-high asking price is repaid on the spot. He had made up his mind. I want to negotiate the price with this guest officer, so I hurriedly collected the deposit at this time, and happily sent people out of the door: "Don't worry, the guest officer." I'll wrap it up for you, and if you buy it, you won't lose money, you won't lose money. ”

Hongchen nodded, repeatedly told her to help her put it away, and hurriedly went back to the house to get the silver.

From the shop back to the county lord's mansion, the distance is not very far, and it is only half an hour to come and go, Hongchen light car Jane Cong, did not put out the guard of honor, took the silver ticket with the fastest speed and returned, and went straight to the counter where the sword was hung when he entered the door.

The wall was empty, Hongchen knocked on the counter, the shopkeeper was entertaining guests on the other side, and she didn't even look at this side, she frowned, but sat down and waited for a while.

No matter how anxious she was, there was also a first come, and it was not good to delay people to do business, so she waited for a quarter of an hour, and finally waited for the second little man in the store over there to greet the guests, lay down in front of the counter to check the accounts, and hurriedly took the silver ticket out, and said: "Little Er, trouble you, my sword is loaded for me." ”

The little er raised his head, glanced at Hongchen, and raised his eyebrows as if surprised: "What sword?" Do guest officers want to buy swords? We are not an arms shop here, you go out and turn left, there is a steward of the Xia family who opens it, there are many weapons, and there are many swords. ”

Hongchen: "......"

She was furious.

The more angry Hongchen became, the less obvious his face became, but the shopkeeper suddenly arrived and felt chills.

In fact, he also has a little drum in his heart at this time, for merchants, reputation is the most important, without reputation, no business can not be done, they can open a store in the capital to do business, the master is well-connected is one of them, and the reputation can not be broken, but just now the girl just left, and there was another guest behind her, a big high-roller, or an old customer, and a person from the Yushan Qi family, picked the sword at a glance, and said to buy it at that time.

Before he could speak, the master gave the sword away, and when he turned around, he wanted to stop the master from speaking clearly, so he mentioned two sentences, and the master chased after the master Qi before he finished listening......

The shopkeeper had a terrible headache, and he made up his mind as soon as he gritted his teeth, and simply treated it as if it hadn't happened, anyway, only he and the guest knew about the other party's deposit, and he didn't leave a note, and he hadn't certified it.

At this time, I felt the pressure on my face, and the shopkeeper's head was dizzy, and I felt bad in my heart.

Maybe this time it's a bad move? It's better to kowtow and make amends and admit that you are wrong. He didn't know how to do this!

But it's already done, then you have to do it to the end, don't be afraid of anything, the master is here, a little girl, what's the matter if you have a little background?

In two sentences, Hongchen knew that he had been deceived, and his anger rose in his heart, but his face became more and more calm, and he said coldly: "I think your store is also an old storefront, and the origin of the things in the store is not simple. ”

The shopkeeper's face sank, and he said softly: "This guest, since you can see that our store is an old signboard, then I might as well open the skylight and say something bright, my master is out of there, there are people on it, no matter who comes to us, it is the dragon he has to coil, it is the tiger he has to lie down, I see that you are young, and you are a Sven person, it is better not to look for trouble." ”

Hongchen was suddenly laughed angrily, suppressed his anger, and said softly: "Give you another chance, send that sword to me honestly and send it to my eyes, this matter will be written off, and I don't bother to bother with you." ”

The shopkeeper touched his head, hehe Yile: "Don't talk nonsense, when does our store owe you a sword, so let's see that it's not easy for you, a little girl's family also came to our store to engage in blackmail, I also believe that you must have a hard time, hey, this way, the so-called make friends, don't grudge, our master is generous, this is a silver ticket of one thousand taels." Come on, take it for you and leave, don't make trouble here, save my master from being angry, and let your little girl suffer. ”

Hongchen: "......"

She lucked her luck and sneered: "It seems that I really met the black shop, okay, I'm going to see if the government is in charge." She shook her head. Dragged through the silver ticket. Turn around and go!

The shopkeeper exhaled and said coldly: "If you want to sue the official, just go, whether the official mansion will be as you want, you will know immediately!" ”

Hongchen: "......"

Very good. Very good!

Swords are not needed. The lifeline must be found. It was impossible for her to let what she had at hand fly away, even if she had to bully others and use the power of the royal family. Things must also be recovered.

But now, I don't have the strength to deal with him, and with this kind of work, it's better to hurry up and use some tough measures.

Hongchen left, and the shopkeeper was also relieved, and exhaled: "It's okay...... It's easy to deal with. ”

The nobles in the capital are all confident, and there are not many people who will calm things like this, unless they know that they have a big store and a deep background, so they simply endure it.

What a risky thing he did!

Fortunately, the deposit and silver ticket were returned, and there was no proof of death, so it didn't matter.

"Hey!"

The shopkeeper sighed, hung his head, and walked back to the store slowly, as soon as he sat down, his master came down from the second floor, accompanied by an old man with gray hair.

"Gong Qi, don't worry, your old man, the little boy Jiren has his own natural appearance, he must be healthy and safe."

The shopkeeper had a courteous look on his face and came down from the upper floor as he spoke.

The old man surnamed Qi did not look very good-looking, gray and gray, full of sorrow, walked two steps, suddenly stopped, frowned.

The shopkeeper was stunned: "Qi Gong? ”

Old Man Qi frowned: "Suddenly dark clouds are thick, from auspicious to fierce, the evil omen is so obvious...... Ah Guang, you have offended the masters! ”

The shopkeeper scratched his head: "Ouch, where is the old man, offending people?" Are there still few people we have offended? Especially in the past few years, I don't know how many villains are waiting for our family to be unlucky, where are you afraid of offending people! ”

As he spoke, he went downstairs, and as soon as he was halfway through, his feet were empty, and he couldn't help but exclaim, and his bones rolled down.

The shopkeeper was startled, and hurriedly rushed over to stop him, hugging the person, and was shocked: "Lord, master!" ”

"His grandmother's ......" The owner of the shop was discouraged, his elbow was hot and painful, and he roared angrily, looking up at the old man standing on the stairs, his face was red, and he said with a smile, "Let the old man see the joke, this, our family is too careless......"

He didn't finish his words, only heard a boom.

Everyone raised their heads to look over, and the whole store suddenly shook, the walls shook, crackling, all the glass covers were shattered, and pieces fell to the ground, and countless antique magic weapons on the counter suddenly flew up, swish, and all flew out of the door, only setting off a gust of cold wind.

The cold wind whistled by, and the store was empty.

There were also bursts of shouting and scolding outside the door.

The shopkeeper was stunned, first angry, rushed to the door, and ordered the people below to chase after him, and several shopkeepers all staggered out, and ran desperately, and there was no trace in a short time.

He was out of breath for a long time, gritting his teeth and scolding endlessly, but as soon as he came back to his senses, he suddenly shuddered: "...... What's going on! ”

In broad daylight, Lang Lang Lang, their goods actually grew wings and flew away!

Isn't it haunted? Does he want to hire a spiritual master to exorcise evil spirits?

Old Man Qi sighed: "Didn't I say, the feng shui in your shop suddenly changed from auspicious to fierce, the signs changed suddenly, and it is not an ordinary change, you can do this, it is by no means an ordinary spiritual master, it seems that you have offended the master, and it is a great offense, doing this, it is not good for the other party itself, after all, it is a strong reversal, do not borrow foreign objects, there are few people in the world who can do it, it takes a lot of energy." You better be careful, I don't think this is an ordinary grudge, that master is really angry, I'm afraid this matter will be difficult to solve easily. ”

The more he talked, the more ugly the shopkeeper's face became: "How is this good?" ”

Old Man Qi spread his hands: "Even if I am asked to prescribe medicine, there is only one sentence, prescribe the right medicine, and find out who you have offended first." ”

The shopkeeper was sweating profusely and racking his brains, the problem was that he had too many enemies, and he could count a whole bunch of them.

"I have a lot of enemies, but there is absolutely no one who dares to deal with me like this."

He's not just not stupid, he's very clever. Even if you have a grudge with someone, you have to see who it is, but if you can't afford to provoke it, he has always been polite and never provoked.

Old Man Qi groaned and said in a low voice: "I see that this formation is very urgent, and it is fierce, and it is your store that has an accident first, probably related to business?" Have you offended anyone in the business recently? ”

The shopkeeper immediately had a brain teaser. Could it be the old district? He just broke that bastard's deal, and the deal was so shameless that he even dared to steal the tomb of the concubine Niangniang in the previous dynasty, and it was simply dead. He's ruining his business. It's also for the sake of the big guys. If this matter is brought out in a big way, it is not just the old district that is unlucky!

"No, the old district doesn't have such guts. I don't have the ability to do that! ”

He really couldn't think of it, so he turned around suddenly, called all the shop guys in front of him, and said urgently, "Think about it for me, what happened to our store in the past two days?" Who did you offend? ”

Everyone looked at each other and shook their heads in unison.

Nothing happened these days, and their kind of shop has always been closed for three years, and it has been open for three years, and the business is not prosperous.

The crowd couldn't think of anything.

There was a clang, and the door opened.

As soon as the shopkeeper looked up, he was stunned, and the person who came in was wearing silver armor and hanging a treasure knife at his waist, with a solemn face.

"Commander Chen? Why are you here, although I lost something in this store, I can't work ......"

Before the shopkeeper finished speaking, his arm was twisted by the young man in silver armor and pressed down.

Then came a group of people.

"Search!"

The group of Praetorian guards swarmed up, rushed to the second floor, beat them, and rummaged around.

The shopkeeper's face turned pale suddenly, and he vaguely felt bad: "Commander Chen, if you have something to say, say it well, we are all our own family, I am Zeng Nanguang, you don't recognize me, our family just drank with the commander last month!" ”

The man snorted without smiling: "If you have anything to say, go into the palace and talk to the Lord Banzai." ”

Hooray......

The shopkeeper's feet were weak, he sat down with a plop, and shouted tremblingly: "Brother, what's wrong, I really don't know, you give me pointers, I, I, I'm grateful!" ”

He desperately thought about it, could it be that these things that came out of the palace leaked the bottom, it shouldn't be, they all reported losses, and His Majesty is a generous person, and it's not that he doesn't know that this is a little bit greasy in private, but he just laughed it off.

What the hell is it!

The silver-armored guard glanced at him and shook his head: "It's okay to tell you, you save trouble, we also save trouble, today you pit a sword from the lord of Rong'an in your shop, the sword is very important, Your Majesty is alarmed, tell you, today you hand over the sword, even if you have merits and demerits, naturally safe, if you don't hand it over, hum, the king of heaven and Lao Tzu can't save you." ”

Zeng Nanguang was stunned: "...... Sword? ”

He thought about it for a long time, and he didn't think of where he got the sword recently, he hadn't done anything about robbing houses, and the things he got in the store all had a background, but he was not likely to get into trouble, besides, he hadn't even seen the lord of Rong'an, how could he pit other people's things.

"Misunderstanding, it must be a misunderstanding!"

Thump!

The shopkeeper who was standing at the top of the stairs was soft at his feet, and sat down on the ground, his face was white and dumbfounded.

Is that what happened...... How can it be!

"I, I ......"

Zeng Nanguang turned his head sharply and stared at him deadly, and the tears of the shopkeeper's heart fell.

“…… Just now, a guest has already bought the sword that our family has purchased, I mentioned it to you, you are not without ...... Talk. ”

Old Man Qi: "......"

Zeng Nanguang turned his head suddenly, looking at him eagerly, Old Man Qi nodded: "Don't worry, I'll send someone to get it immediately, little third son, go home quickly, and quickly invite the sword back." ”

Not only the shopkeeper, but even the silver-armored guards who were holding him relaxed a little.

What matters is the things, and you can ignore everything else.

Ganquan Palace.

The faces of the four people around the bed were pale, sweat was rolling down, the lamps and candles in their hands flickered for a while, and they were faint for a while, and everyone's arms were stiff and trembling.

The emperor's face was also gloomy, his eyes fell on his wife's face, vaguely angry, and anxious, he couldn't help but reach out and hold the queen's cold wrist, his fingers trembled slightly.

For many years, he has forgotten this feeling, for more than ten years, the two of them have not even really said a few intimate words face to face.

"Why are you so stubborn!"

The Emperor sighed.

Don't look at it, how many princes I haven't raised, for so many years, very few have grown up!

The emperor sighed again, he is not a weak emperor, and he will not believe that he is the kind of idiot emperor who can't even keep his son, but his children died one after another, no matter how they checked, the results were all accidents!

Where did so many accidents come from in the world!

He killed batch after batch of people, but his sister-in-law, who he had been looking forward to for so many years, thinking about it for so many years, and had high hopes, was still sick and so sick.
