Chapter Twenty-Nine: Qiao Ji
I saw a gorgeously dressed and good-looking girl walk down from the second floor. She smiled at Yu Fei, and her soft voice came again, "Miss Yu, we really have fate, we can meet here." ”
Yu Fei also smiled, "No, I didn't expect to meet your big Buddha in this small temple." ”
This girl is none other than Xie Fanghua, the third girl of the Prime Minister's Mansion. Speaking of this Xie San girl, she has actually met Yu Fei twice, one has a haughty personality and is considered to be the head of the noble girl of the family; An uninhibited personality is considered a stain on the family. When the two met, although they were suspected of being picked up by other noble girls, they did form a bond in the process of taunting you back and forth.
Since Xie San wanted this hairpin, Yu Fei could be sure that she deliberately wanted to rob it with herself.
Xie Fanghua looked at the hairpin next to Yu Fei and continued to say to Xiao Er: "How much?" I want it. Then he looked at Yu Fei and said with a smile: "Miss Yu often travels from south to north and shows people in men's clothes, and she may not be able to use a few hairpins all year round." In this way, it is better to give it to me, so that this hairpin can be used to the fullest. ”
Xiao Er's eyes wandered back and forth between the two, and he smiled awkwardly and said, "If you go back to the two girls, this hairpin will cost two hundred taels." ”
"First come, first served, late to grab. Presumably, Miss Xie San, who has always been known as a model of all noble women, should understand this truth. Yu Fei's eyes glanced at Xie Fanghua, and then directly took out two hundred taels of silver tickets and handed them to Xiao Er, "Help me wrap it up!" ”
"I'll give five hundred taels!" Xie Fanghua didn't even look at the hairpin, and stared at Yu Fei with straight eyes.
Seeing her like this, Yu Fei raised her eyebrows, "Six hundred taels." ”
"Seven hundred taels!"
"Eight hundred taels."
"Eight hundred and fifty taels!" In order to gamble, Xie Fanghua also fought hard.
Yu Fei looked at her with a smile, "Third Miss Xie, you are a noble girl raised in the deep boudoir, where did you get so much silver?" ”
In fact, when it came to this price, Xie Fanghua was a little annoyed. Because she really didn't have that much spare money in her hands, but she didn't want to be left behind, so she had to shout hard. She thought that as long as Yu Fei followed again, she wouldn't want it. She is also happy to be able to spend more money on this annoying person.
"Do you care if I have so much silver? If you don't ask for the price, the hairpin will be mine. Although Xie Fanghua said this, what he wanted in his heart was to hurry up and follow, hurry up and ask for the price!
It's just that Yu Fei didn't do what she wanted, stretched out a gesture of invitation, and said to Xie Fanghua: "Third Miss Xie, the little girl is not as rich as you, this hairpin belongs to you." ”
"You..." Xie Fanghua didn't expect the next trap to actually trap herself, and she was suddenly a little dumbfounded.
She hesitated for a long time before she said, "I didn't bring that much cash today, I'll come here another day to buy it." "It's a shame today, but she won't be stupid enough to really spend so much money to buy a hairpin.
Thinking about it, she glared at Yu Fei fiercely, and shouted to the maid beside her, "Let's go!" ”
Yu Fei smiled, then gave two hundred taels of silver to Xiao Er, and inserted the hairpin directly into the bun.
"Is it pretty?" She asked Yu Chun and the three of them with a smile, except for the logs, both of them nodded again and again.
Prime Minister Xie Qian can't reach her, but can't she reach these three girls Xie Fanghua? Xie San, we will meet often in the future!
"Xiaobai, has Miss Xie San had anything interesting recently?" Yu Fei asked.
"I heard that Miss Xie San is going to hold a poetry party in the near future, but she didn't give you a post." Xiaobai replied.
"You didn't give me a post, you always gave it to Wang Yao, right?" Her identity is not enough, Wang Sima's identity as a concubine is always enough!
"Go back Xiaobai, you go and talk to Wang Yao, just say that if Xie San sends her a post to participate in the poetry meeting, let her notify me, and I will go with her." Yu Fei said.
Yu Chun was still very surprised when she saw that her sister was going to the poetry meeting. "Isn't Sister not aware of poetry?"
"Just because you don't know poetry doesn't mean you can't participate!" Yu Fei replied to him with a smile.
"But if you participate, I'm afraid it won't be justified not to speak poetry and lyrics on that occasion, right?" Yu Chun felt that if it was him, he would definitely not go, and he didn't know what his sister thought.
"Oh, I don't know anything about elegance, but I still know a little bit about vassal elegance. I can give them a good round of applause! What's the matter with you, kid? I'll just go to a poetry meeting, you have so many questions! Yu Fei glared at him.
Seeing this, Yu Chun finally closed his mouth obediently, anyway, it wasn't him who would be embarrassed at that time.
A few people had fun on the street again, Yu Chun and Yu Bai returned to Yu Mansion, and Yu Fei returned to Huajingfang with the logs.
Huajingfang at night is brightly lit. Compared to the daytime, it is a little more lively.
The Jinhua gambling house has already been well arranged, and it is full of people and lively at this time. Gao Yi saw the two of them come back, and introduced the two of them to some old customers.
Those who can often come to this Jinhua gambling house are either rich or expensive. I heard that there was a guest here, and she was still a girl from the Yu family, but now that she saw it, she asked to gamble with Yu Fei for a few games. Yu Fei was prepared and did not shirk. After playing back and forth for a few games like this, everyone was impressed by her gambling skills, and it can be regarded as recognizing her identity as a guest.
After playing a few games again, Yu Fei said goodbye to everyone, and then followed Gao Yi to a secluded private room.
"Meet the prince!" Yu Fei bowed to the people inside.
"No courtesy." King Qi turned around and looked at her, "You already have an eyebrow about what King Tuoben inquired about. ”
So fast? is worthy of King Qi, and the efficiency is high, Yu Fei thought to herself.
"Don't be too happy too early," King Qi looked at Yu Fei's raised eyebrows and poured cold water on her. "This person's name is Qiao Ji, a person from the capital, who lives in Xicheng, and is still solid. There is a wife and two sons in the family, and they don't know what he is doing outside. ”
"According to his wife, we stayed in the place he frequented and eventually found his body in the Xicheng River."
He's dead?! Yu Fei looked at him with wide eyes.
"According to the investigation, it should be drunk and drowned." King Qi continued, "The time of death should be the day we return to the capital. ”
Such a coincidence? If you don't die sooner or later, you just died when they first arrived in the capital, and the person who killed him was a naked provocation to them!
Now that the person is dead, the clue is broken, how can we continue to investigate? Yu Fei frowned tightly.
"Although Qiao Ji is dead, he has people who are familiar and trusted. Mingzhou has already brought someone to investigate, and the results should come out soon. King Qi said to her, "This king came here this time, in addition to telling you about this, there is one more thing. ”
What's up? Yu Fei looked at him.
