Chapter 110: Meet the Great Elder
Yes, Nan Kaoru was not mistaken, she was very sure that she had definitely seen this ring before, because the dark and deep feeling made her very familiar.
Nan Xun picked it up again and took a closer look, and sure enough, it was the same as the one Yan Shao showed to himself before.
She touched the ring lightly with her fingers, closed her eyes, and felt the movement on it.
Pictures flashed quickly, it turned out that this ring and the ring in Yan Shao's hand were a pair, after the man in the hat gave one to Yan Shao, the other kept it for himself, and then I don't know why, it was obtained by Uncle Zhao again, and then it naturally went to Nan Xun's hand.
The smart Nan Xun on the black ring can only perceive these, but it's enough, the ring is for people, and other than that, it doesn't have any other effect.
At least, that's what Kaoru thought, so she packed up her ring and put it in the secret room.
……
In the next few days, Nan Xun walked outside the door every day, or stopped to pretend to tidy up the sign at the door, or just lazily stretched a few lazy waists, anyway, he always glanced at the door casually or inadvertently.
However, it seems that the faces that I noticed before are gone.
In a flash of inspiration, she patted her head and said regretfully in her heart, how did she suddenly become stupid.
Since Nan Xun has paid attention to those of them, it is difficult to ensure that those people do not pay attention to themselves, and those people have been monitoring for an unknown amount of time, and they must be very familiar with some of their habits, such as she didn't go out of the door very often, but now she goes out from time to time, which is unreasonable, and will definitely arouse suspicion, which is self-defeating.
The so-called wise man must make a mistake in a thousand thoughts, not to mention that Nan Xun is not a wise man, but I am afraid that this time, it will be difficult to find out the person who is monitoring him.
Sure enough, Nan Xun asked about the freshman, and the people who monitored Yiyandang before didn't know where they went, and if they wanted to know if there was any surveillance, they needed to wait a few days.
Nan Xun said in his heart, if you wait for a few more days, I'm afraid it will be difficult to find out.
After chatting with the freshman, Nan Xun asked Xiao Er to prepare some gifts, and then went to visit Elder Qu of Qianwei.
This is Nan Xun's first step plan, from the mouth of this current Great Elder, see if you can find any news about the previous generation of Great Elder, that is, Nan Xun's father.
When I arrived at Qianwenwei, I saw Elder Qu, Nan Xun handed over the gift, and the elder did not shirk it.
Elder Qu smiled and said, "Elder Nan is here, I'm afraid there is something wrong." ”
"Don't dare, don't dare, in front of you, how dare you call me an elder, you can call me Nanxun." Nan Xun said, "It's really not good, just call me a little girl, and you can afford me." ”
"Wherever, Miss Nanxun is young, and she can ascend to the position of the elder of the Shang Alliance, so she naturally deserves the title of elder."
Elder Qu said, beckoning his subordinates to make tea for Nan Xun.
"This is all the great elder's love, no, I sent some gadgets to express my gratitude."
Elder Qu said, "I'm afraid, no, it's that simple, ah, hahaha...... You girl is clever, I've heard of it a long time ago, and I believe it if you say thank you, but if you don't ask something, I'm afraid that this old man will be upset. ”
"It's rare for Elder Qu to care, and the little woman is terrified." Nan Xun said, muttering to himself in his heart, he is really an old man.
"Tell me, what do you want to ask!?"
Nan Xun looked at Elder Qu, not like he was joking, and said, "There are indeed some things that need to be consulted by Elder Qu, and I hope Elder Qu will tell him directly." Father Nantian, the last Great Elder of the Shang Alliance, died a few years ago, I wonder if Elder Qu knows about this? ”
"Alas, I naturally know that what happened to Elder Nantian is deeply regretted by the entire Shang Alliance." Elder Qu sighed, "What a miss out on such a talent." ”
"Shangmeng didn't investigate the cause and effect of this matter?" Nami Kaoru asked.
Elder Qu said: "After investigation, Elder Nantian was killed by a group of robbers, and by the time the personnel of our Business Alliance arrived, the group of robbers had long since disappeared, and the goods escorted by Elder Nantian were also looted. ”
"Then, Elder Qu also thinks that what happened to the ancestor was purely accidental, and someone didn't deliberately frame him?"
Hearing Nan Xun say this, Elder Qu frowned slightly, and said, "What does Nan Xun mean, isn't it, what did you hear!?" ”
Nan Xun nodded and said, "I did hear some things, it seems that what happened to my ancestor is not so simple, I don't know if Elder Qu can remember any abnormal circumstances?" ”
"Unusual situation?!" Elder Qu pondered for a moment, "It doesn't seem to be, what Elder Nantian did was normal business dealings, and he didn't have too deep a grudge against anyone. ”
"Then, why did my father go so far to do business before he died?" That's what Kaoru really wants to know.
"Actually, it's not business, it's to escort a batch of treasures!" Elder Qu said, "And Mingzong personally issued an order to ask Elder Nantian to go." ”
"Mingzong Xià!?" Nami Kaoru was surprised.
"Yes, there are some things you may not know, but now that you are an elder of my Shang Alliance, I can naturally tell you these things. Most of the funds raised by our business alliance are used to support people with lofty ideals and ascend to the Ninth Five-Year Plan in turbulent times. ”
"That's what it does!" Although Nan Xun had already learned about this from Elder Wen, he still pretended to be surprised now, lest Elder Qu become suspicious.
"Yes, I, the Elder Pavilion, am responsible for making decisions, and I am worthy of the support of the Business Alliance."
"Oh!" Nan Kaoru nodded and said, "This has something to do with my father!?" ”
"Naturally, Elder Nantian was very supportive of today's Mingzong at that time, so our Shang Alliance made a great contribution to Mingzong's succession, after Mingzong succeeded to the throne, he attached great importance to the Shang Alliance, especially your father who was a great elder at that time, if it weren't for the iron law that my Shang Alliance had an iron law and was not allowed to engage in politics, it is estimated that your father would have been above the court and became a high-ranking person."
"It turns out that there are so many things, I didn't know anything before."
"That's all." Elder Qu said again, "After that, Mingzong sent troops to the south and went straight to the Great Yi Ning Kingdom of the guide, and the Great Yi Ning Kingdom saw that the situation was not good and surrendered to Ming Zong, and Ming Zong ordered him to pay tribute to a batch of treasures to show his courtiers' hearts. The monarch of Dayining naturally didn't dare not agree, so he chose a batch of treasures, and Mingzong naturally wanted a credible person to contact, so Mingzong thought about it and sent your father to receive the escort, after all, your father's ability to identify treasures is unmatched. ”
"This doesn't violate the iron law of the Business Alliance?!"
"Don't disobey, because at that time, Mingzong didn't give your father any official position, it was just counted as a transaction before the royal family and the Shang Alliance."
