The corners of the girl's lips hooked slightly, and she picked up the wine glass and handed it to the man, "Don't worry, sir, please drink this cup to the full!" ”

The man hesitated for a moment, but finally reached out and took the glass, and without looking up, drank the wine from the glass.

"How?" The girl smiled faintly, "What does this Jiangnan famous wine taste like?" ”

The man didn't answer, put the wine glass on the table, and said in a deep voice, "I've drunk the wine, you better get down to business first!" ”

Seeing that the other party was so unfunny, the girl was not annoyed, she laughed coquettishly, and said: "My request is actually very simple, the master only needs to prepare another batch of gunpowder and ordnance to give me, these two cars of gold sand, I will naturally return the amount!" ”

The man sneered, "You have a good plan, and I need to prepare two batches of goods for the money of one batch of goods, don't you think your appetite is too big?" ”

"No way," the girl pretended to frown, "The eldest lord doesn't want me to go back to the grassland empty-handed!" ”

The man snorted, but made no sound.

"I also know that this makes it difficult for the eldest lord to do, but you are in a high position, and this little thing is just a gesture for you. After the deed is completed, how about I make up for your carload of gold sand? The girl's autumn-like eyes looked at him and said.

"I can't do it with ten more carts of gold sand," the man said abruptly: "You don't know the current situation, the arms smuggling case has been discovered, the Son of Heaven is furious, and the factories and workshops under the Ordnance Bureau of the Ministry of Industry have been closely monitored. If you remember the many transactions you have made in the past, give me two carts of gold sand, and let me distribute them......"

The girl smiled "poof", her eyes flowing, "The old man is really witty, Huang Zaoshi, the director of the armor factory, has hanged himself, and Deng Enguang, the director of Wang Gong Factory, has gone crazy in the prison of the Criminal Department. To whom will the gold sand be given to you? ”

"You're well-informed!" There was a hint of surprise in the man's tone, "That being said, I have to give them the benefits here before they agree to do things." Now that the goods are out and the money has been intercepted by you, who will I find to make up for the deficit here? ”

"Speaking of which, you're still coming back," the girl smiled pleasantly, "It's easy to say that the deficit is good, and it would be very bad if this head fell off." ”

"What do you mean by that?" The man's body moved, and he asked sharply.

"It's not interesting," the girl glanced at him, and said indifferently, "I just want to make it easy for both of us," the voice paused slightly, "Don't worry, I won't poke out the matter between us, otherwise who will I trade with if I come here again in the future?" ”

The man snorted heavily, "If you don't poke out, I won't be able to help you any more." ”

"The eldest lord is noble, how can I let you take such a big risk?" The girl grinned and said: "Although the ordnance smuggling case has been issued, the production of gunpowder and ordnance will not stop here, you have a lot of places where you use soldiers in the Ming Dynasty, and this gunpowder ordnance can't be piled up in the capital all the time after it is produced, right?" ”

"You might as well pick it out for whatever you want to say." The man said gloomily.

"It's very simple," the girl smiled, "that is, please tell me some information when the lord arrives, when the ordnance and gunpowder will be shipped out of the capital, where it will be transported, and how to take the route, and tell me in detail one by one. ”

The man was silent, and said for a while: "How can I know about such a confidential matter?" ”

"Don't forget that the military bureau in the palace is under your control," the girl seemed to know that he had said this, so she said unhurriedly: "The firearms cast by the military war bureau are sent to the garrison in the border area together with the gunpowder ordnance, and the escort of firearms and ordnance is usually undertaken by a father-in-law of the military bureau and the subordinate officer of the military department. ”

The man let out a long sigh, "One day my life will have to be handed over to you." ”

"Why should the eldest lord be too humble," the girl said leisurely, "If you want to keep me here forever, you just need to inform Shuntianfu." Then he said, "We are grasshoppers on a rope, and no one will betray anyone." ”

"I'm different from you," the man smiled bitterly, "Once the wind is not right, you can leave and go back to your grassland to be the lord of the county that is admired by all people, but I ......" said in a rather heavy tone: "When the time comes, it will be impossible for someone to hold a piece of loess and bury me!" ”

"The eldest master is cautious, how can this be?" The girl comforted: "Take this time as an example, the batch of goods you handed over to me was not mixed with a firearm from the War Bureau, although the smuggling case was reported, it did not touch the War Bureau and you in the slightest." ”

The man shook his head and did not speak.

The girl's eyes were smart, "Are you afraid that the person in the prison of the Criminal Department will confess you?" ”

The man's body moved slightly, and he was silent.

"Isn't he crazy?" The girl said.

"Crazy or not only you know," the man exhaled slowly, "and even if he is really crazy, he may be awake one day." ”

"What do you mean...... Let him die? The girl's beautiful eyes narrowed slightly.

"Who do you think is better to rot secrets in their stomachs, dead or alive?" The hat on the man's head lifted slightly, revealing a pair of cold eyes.

"I see," the girl's eyes flickered, "you sent the assassins in the prison department. ”

"......" The man's gaze flickered.

"You mean, if you want you to sit here and talk to me about a deal, you have to get rid of that hidden danger first." The corners of the girl's eyes curled.

"You're a smart man," the man said leisurely, "and it's always easy to talk to smart people." It's a pity that the person I sent died in the prison of the Criminal Department......" The eyes intentionally or unintentionally cast a faint glance at the girl.

"Then I'll do the rest of the work, and I promise that you will have peace of mind." The girl raised her eyebrows and said.

"Then there will be labor," the man lifted the wine jug and poured wine into another empty cup, and solemnly raised his hands and handed it to the girl, "I forgot to tell you, this Jiangnan aged golden pot dew is mellow and delicious, sweet in the mouth, long aftertaste, and good wine!" ”

"Lord Yang, you're back." As soon as Xiao Lingzi saw Yang Muyun, he greeted him with a smile.

"Is the emperor in the palace now?" Yang Muyun asked.

"Does Lord Yang want to see the emperor? This is really unfortunate, the emperor went to Renshou Palace to ask the Queen Mother for peace," Xiao Lingzi smiled: "Your hour on duty has passed, if there is nothing major, you can go back to rest first." ”

"Hmm" Yang Muyun looked at the door of the Jinshen Palace, and there were two guards who had been replaced, one of them was his opponent Zhu Yi, and the other was Xu Yongning who was with Zhu Yi. He rubbed his chin and said to Xiao Lingzi: "Father-in-law Xiao Lingzi, can I wait here for the emperor to come back?" ”

"Is this it?" Xiao Lingzi hesitated for a moment and said, "Lord Yang, look at this day, the emperor will definitely stay in Renshou Palace to dine with the Queen Mother, I'm afraid you will have to wait a little longer......"

"It's okay, it's okay, I'll just wait here," Yang Muyun smiled faintly, dusted off his sleeves and stood still in front of the hall.

Xiao Lingzi just wanted to say something more, but he heard one person shouting loudly: "Who is sneaking around here, don't hurry up and retreat." He couldn't help but be startled, and when he turned around, he saw Zhu Yi glaring at Yang Muyun fiercely.

"Are you talking about me," Yang Muyun met his gaze and said, "Where am I sneaky?" ”

"You can't stay in this place casually, why don't you get away from me." Zhu Yi shouted.

"I'm the sword-carrying officer next to the emperor? Why can't you stay here? Yang Muyun argued.

"Didn't you listen to Xiao Lingzi, the hour of your duty has passed, what are you still doing here, get out of here!" Zhu Yi pressed the handle of the knife with a solemn face.

"Why is Brother Zhu so angry," Xu Yongning persuaded on the side: "Yang Banwei has just arrived, and the rules in the palace are not very familiar, just mention him a few words." ”

"Don't you say I almost forgot," Zhu Yi smiled, "A native bun from the countryside, I don't know anything," a sharp glint flashed in his eyes, "Now that you know, don't you get out?" ”

"I have something to do with the emperor, and I can't leave yet!" Yang Muyun replied neither softly nor hard.

"Performance?" Zhu Yi laughed and said, "Are you the imperial historian?" Coming here for business? "Shen sighed, "Officials below the third grade are not allowed to be entrenched here unless the emperor has an edict, and if there is a violation of the system, they will not be pardoned."

！ As he spoke, he gripped the hilt of the knife tightly with his right hand.

"Little grandfather," Xiao Lingzi couldn't help but panic when he saw this tense scene, and hurriedly stepped forward to persuade: "You don't know, Lord Yang and Xiao Marquis Guo were sent by the emperor to run errands early in the morning, Lord Yang came back late, but unfortunately the emperor ......is not there."

"Can the emperor mess up the rules if he is not there?" Zhu Yi interrupted him and said, "He was ignorant when he first came, have you forgotten the rules of the palace?" ”

"Yes, yes, the little grandfather has taught him a lesson," Xiao Lingzi turned around and said to Yang Muyun with a bitter face: "Lord Yang, I think you should step back first, if the matter is not urgent, it will not be too late to face the emperor when you come over early tomorrow morning when you come on duty." ”

"Father-in-law Xiao Lingzi," Yang Muyun also came up at this time, and said with a strong suppression of anger: "The emperor ordered me to accompany Guo Cong on an errand, because I learned a little more about the situation, I came back late, if I can't meet the emperor in time, wouldn't it be too disrespectful to the emperor." ”

"That's what Lord Yang said," Xiao Lingzi looked behind him again and persuaded: "But you have also seen the current situation, Little Master Zhu is determined to find you unlucky, if you don't retreat, he will really dare to draw a knife and point at you!" ”

"Draw the knife, draw the knife, I'm still afraid that he won't succeed?" Yang Muyun couldn't help but rush up angrily, and said in his heart, I stretched out a finger and poked him over, afraid of what he would do?

"Lord Yang, don't mind," Xiao Lingzi hurriedly persuaded: "This is the palace inside, and a private fight will cost you your head." ”

Looking at Xiao Lingzi's pleading look, Yang Muyun glared at Zhu Yi fiercely, turned around and left.

"Brother Xu, have you seen it?" Zhu Yi proudly glanced at Xu Yongning, "Tubaozi is Tubaozi, just scare him a few words and roll honestly like a pug with his tail between his legs." As he spoke, he was about to laugh, but with a flower in front of him, he slapped his face heavily with a "snap", and his half-laughed face froze, making people look indescribably funny.

I saw Yang Muyun standing in front of him with a smile, and said with a slight arch of his hand: "By the way, I haven't said goodbye to the two of you yet!" Rude faux pas! ”

"You...... You actually hit me? Zhu Yi covered her hot face and was shocked and angry.

"What did the little grandfather say? Did I hit you? Yang Muyun pretended to be stunned, looked at Xiao Lingzi, and then at Xu Yongning, "Did you see me beat him?" ”

"The surname is Yang, my son fought with you." Zhu Yi lost face in front of the public, gritted his teeth, pulled out his knife with a "choking" sound, and slashed towards Yang Muyun.

That time outside the Chengguo Mansion, although Zhu Yi had seen Yang Muyun's martial arts, he didn't think that the other party would do it with him in this palace, and these days he learned a few extremely powerful knife techniques from a master of the sword in the mansion, so his self-confidence was bursting, thinking that with these few tricks of the knife skills that he learned and sold, he would definitely be able to defeat Yang Muyun more than enough.

Therefore, after being slapped in the face by Yang Muyun, the blood in his brain surged, and he slashed at Yang Muyun regardless of pulling out his knife.

Yang Muyun dodged Zhu Yi's knife-like like a storm in a good time, but as soon as the knife light rolled, the blade slashed towards his waist from an extremely tricky angle.

"Huh!" Yang Muyun exclaimed, and said in his heart that he hadn't seen him for a few days, and this gentleman's martial arts had risen greatly, and he was able to use such a subtle move. After a few moves, Yang Muyun found that although the little master's knife moves were exquisite, his body technique was slow and his strength was insufficient, so he immediately put his mind at ease and used his tossing and turning body to tease the other party.

Zhu Yi's sword technique became more and more urgent, and swept towards Yang Muyun like a strong wind. Yang Muyun's whole body is like a small boat sailing in a huge wave, and there is a danger of capsizing at any time.

But under Zhu Yi's ruthless slash, Yang Muyun could always avoid it in a desperate situation.

After dozens of knives, Yang Muyun was not injured in the slightest, but Zhu Yi was out of breath and couldn't support it.

"Stay!" The figure flashed, Yang Muyun jumped away from afar, and smiled at Zhu Yiyi: "The little grandfather is strong in martial arts, and he admires him, how about stopping now?" ”

"No," Zhu Yi turned the knife sideways, gasped heavily, his flushed face was as if he had drunk alcohol, and he glared and said: "I can cut you in a few more moves, you kind of just stand still, dodge and don't look like a man!" ”
