Chapter 367: Someone Leaves, Someone Comes
Emperor Shang gave an order, and took advantage of the opportunity of the Shangwu competition to begin to purge the spies of various countries in Chaoge City. What ordinary people hear is "purging spies", but for some people, the targets of purging are not necessarily "spies".
Xia Yi is not a big man in the imperial court, nor is he one of those "old monsters" who have insight into Emperor Shang, but he has heard too much and seen too much, and he can vaguely perceive that Emperor Shang seems to be taking this opportunity to do something.
I hope Emperor Shang will not be confused, thinking that he has won some battles, and he can do whatever he wants. If you really want to anger those dynasties and forces in the land of China, don't provoke the anger of the public, otherwise the reality will teach you how to behave!' Xia Yi has been in the land of China for several months, and he doesn't know much about the land of China, but he has a certain understanding of the Great Shang Dynasty, at least he must know more deeply than the ordinary people of the Great Shang Dynasty.
He knew very well that if the Great Shang Dynasty dared to wantonly purge the important figures of other dynasties and forces, it would definitely be the enemy of the world, and then for the Great Shang Dynasty, it would fall into an inextricable sinking.
Xia Yi prayed in his heart, not because he was pitiful for Emperor Shang, but because he came through and was "born" in the Great Shang Dynasty, deep down he still hoped that the Great Shang Dynasty could flourish day by day.
That's all.
Xia Yi listened to these rumors, but then, he put his attention into the live game.
The second match of the semi-finals of the team competition is about to begin, Qingfeng Academy vs. Xuanniao Academy, the "civil war" of the three major academies, and the strong dialogue, no matter which point, has a strong attraction to the audience.
For Xia Yi, the same is true.
......
At the same time, in a small county town a hundred miles away from Chaoge City, a team of more than a dozen people had just entered the city, looking for a simple inn to rest.
The leader is a middle-aged man who is old and serious, I saw that he has a long white beard, neat clothes, and a clean and tidy appearance.
The middle-aged rich man sat at the middle table in the inn, and there was not a single traveler around, only a middle-aged woman sitting at the same table as him accompanied him.
The middle-aged rich man looked at the middle-aged woman's old-fashioned expression, and couldn't help but sigh: "I said, don't be angry anymore, along the way, we can barely hurry up, but those servants and horses can't stand it, we have to give them a chance to rest, otherwise, there is no ......."
Before the middle-aged rich man could finish his words, he was interrupted by the middle-aged woman sitting next to him in an unkind tone.
"What did I say? Just the two of us are on the way, we can arrive early, you want to be greedy for enjoyment, you have to bring something with your servants to hurry, how much time has been delayed along the way, you don't know in your own heart?!"
The middle-aged woman's tone of voice was very unhappy, but her expression did not change much, and she thought that she was complaining about her man.
The shopkeeper and the shopkeeper in the inn looked at the couple with some curiosity, thinking about the relief they were coming, guessing that they were the little bosses who went to Song City to beg for a living.
The reason for the speculation that they are small bosses is mainly because they do not have many retinues with them, less than ten people, and they do not have a single bodyguard from the outside. 12
How rich can a man who can't even afford to hire bodyguards be? It looks like a rich man in the countryside.
The shopkeeper and the shopkeeper are both people with active eyelids, but unfortunately, their eyesight is limited to the surface of things. But I didn't think much about it, such a small group of people, not even a bodyguard, dare to travel a long distance?
Looking at the middle-aged woman's appearance, even the shopkeeper and shopkeeper who looked down on this pair of countrymen couldn't help but keep glancing back and forth at her body.
The middle-aged rich man put the clean teacup in his hand on the table, made a noise on the ground, and coughed lightly, stopping the hidden movements of the middle-aged woman next to him.
The middle-aged woman's eyes flashed with a hint of fierceness, and she slowly withdrew her right hand.
The middle-aged rich man lowered his voice, leaned his head slightly, and said to the middle-aged woman with a wry smile: "It's all said, don't pay attention to these ordinary people who don't know the height of the sky." ”
"They should gouge out their eyes!" the middle-aged woman pursed the corners of her mouth slightly, and her words were full of coldness, and she was about to kill people between her words.
The middle-aged rich man smiled bitterly: "On the way here, I reminded you in advance, in order to avoid these disgusting things, you either cover your face with a light veil, you don't agree, and why do you want to accommodate those ordinary people with squinting eyes." I'm not trying to accommodate them, I'm not trying to avoid trouble. ”
"Hmph, to avoid trouble, we should both hurry, and feel Chao Gecheng as soon as possible, maybe we can stop it early...... Besides, even if Hongu covered his face with a light veil, would those guys who didn't know whether to live or die retract their eyes? Don't you see where those bastards are looking?!!!
When she said the last sentence, the chill in the middle-aged woman's words almost turned the entire inn to ashes. It's just that she controlled the range very well, and just controlled these "chills" around herself, and didn't spread out.
After all, I still have to give this old man some face.
The middle-aged rich man's face was a little strange, of course he knew that the light yarn could only block the eyes of the shopkeeper, but not the shopkeeper's gaze. It's just that when she said this in person, there was always a suspicion of self-boasting.
Of course, he knew that she was definitely not showing off herself, with her identity and fairy appearance, she didn't need the boss and Xiao Er in this dilapidated inn to brag about herself, which would not only not show her immortal appearance, but would lower her level.
The middle-aged rich man's face only changed slightly, and he noticed a fierce gaze chasing after him, and he immediately straightened his face and pretended to be serious, in order to show his innocence.
"Boss. The middle-aged rich man beckoned to the boss and motioned for him to come forward and speak.
The shopkeeper ran to the side of the two of them, in normal times, he was self-conscious, and he would never behave so lowly, not yet......
Just as the shopkeeper's eyes were about to turn to the woman's body, he suddenly felt a pain in his arm, and before he could open his mouth to cry out in pain, he felt that half of his body was numb, and not only could he not move his eyes, but he could not even say the words that came to his mouth.
"Anyway, the people in the shop here are cleared, and you and your people can leave. If you are honest and can save a life, if you yearn for 'death under the peony flower', then I can also fulfill you." ”
The middle-aged rich man looks calm and free, but the words in his mouth are quite terrifying.
