(Chapter 77) (Chapter 77)
Chen Yi's brows furrowed, he didn't come up with any good solution after thinking about it for a long time, and as time passed little by little, he had already moved around anxiously repeatedly.
"Looks like we're going to have to take a chance." I sighed and looked at Gu Yuancheng, who was sleeping on the bed.
Chen Yi's footsteps stopped, and he was puzzled and asked, "What does Gongzi mean?" ”
I walked to the table and sat down, tapped my index finger on the table, and said as I tapped, "If there is no Qi country, it is impossible for my emperor to give you the condensation branch, so we only have one way left." ”
"Childe is talking about a pawnshop of life and death?" Chen Yi didn't look the slightest surprised, obviously he hadn't thought of this method before.
"There is one of Jia Chun's in the pawnshop of life and death, and another one that I offered with both hands, no matter how it is calculated, it is the best choice to go to the pawnshop of life and death to get condensation branches." I said.
After hearing this, Chen Yi hurriedly shook his head, "Childe should know where my young master was injured, although I didn't go with the young master that day, but my young master has practiced martial arts since he was a child, and he is talented, there are few people in this world who can injure my young master, you can imagine how dangerous the pawnshop of life and death is, if you want to get the condensation branch from them, I am afraid that the difficulty is comparable to asking Emperor Qin." ”
"I know...... "I look out the window, "where he got his poison, too, but?" ”
Chen Yi didn't answer immediately, but hesitated and didn't say anything.
I looked at him suspiciously, Chen Yi pursed his lips, his face was a little ugly, "Son, forgive me, I don't know where the young master's poison was received, the young master explicitly forbade me to go to the pawnshop of life and death with him that day, but according to the current situation, I think this is the case." ”
I nodded, not thinking about dwelling on the matter.
"I knew the pawnshop was dangerous, and I didn't want to go there to steal medicine. The reason I say 'risky' is because I'm going to copy the pawnshop of life and death. ”
"Copyed?" Chen Yi was shocked.
I shook my hand and made up my mind, "Originally, the affairs of Jiangnan and the pawnshop of life and death have an inseparable relationship, and if the pawnshop of life and death is solved, the matter of Jiangnan will be over, so it is easy to take the condensation branch by the way." ”
"Yes...... Wouldn't Childe be afraid of startling the snake? We don't know much about that mysterious force right now, and it's the only clue we can grasp. Chen Yi was worried, after all, the young master attached far more importance to this matter than before, if the young master knew that they were going to destroy the layout of his painstaking management, wouldn't it ......
The light in my eyes dimmed, I was entangled in my heart, Chen Yi was right, the pawnshop of life and death is an important tool for us to pry open that force, maybe we can bring it down in one fell swoop, missed this opportunity, we want to grab its braid again, I'm afraid it will be difficult to keep time.
But......
"Priorities, human lives are at stake, we don't have time to hesitate, Chen Yi, if you can trust me for the time being, I hope you can help me." I stood up and looked at Chen Yi with a calm gaze.
"I'm ......" Chen Yi paused, then leaned over and clenched his fists, "Childe, please command, I will do my best." ”
I looked at the sky outside the window and said to Chen Yi, "It's twilight, I should go back, you take good care of him, I'll come back tomorrow." ”
"Well, Childe be careful all the way."
I nodded, pushed the door open, and left.
The news of Gu Yuancheng's injury, as well as the recent actions of that mysterious force, and what to do next, I will talk to Du Rong and Jiang Hewei.
When I returned to Du's Courtyard, I went to look for Du Rong, but I saw that he and Miss Yunyin were talking, and they seemed to be talking heartily.
"Du Rong!" I stepped forward to say hello, and then waved to Miss Yunyin on the side, and said with a smile, "Miss Yun, have all the luggage been arranged?" But what else do you have to serve? ”
Yunyin's cheeks flushed, and he hurriedly waved his hand and said, "No need, no need, how dare you bother adults, Lord Du has already done it for the women." ”
With a raised brow, I looked at Du Rong with a smile on my face, but the words I said had a little deep meaning: "Master Du, why have you been talking to Miss Yunyin for so long, and she still calls herself a 'people's woman' to me?" How can I explain this to Brother Hewei? ”
Du Rong looked innocent, spread his hands and said, "Miss Yun has never done this to me, it is obvious that your official authority is too great, which scares her." ”
Yun Yin's face became redder and redder, and he hurriedly found an opportunity to salute, hiding his face and saying, "Two adults, people...... The little woman felt tired, so she went back to rest first, and if there was any rudeness, she also invited the two adults Haihan. ”
"Miss Yunyin is polite, you are our honored guest, you can come and go as you please, how dare we obstruct it." I laugh.
Yunyin didn't dare to look me in the eye anymore, she hid her face with a fan, lifted the hem of her skirt and hurried away.
Looking at the delicate and feminine figure, I couldn't help laughing, and stroked my palms and said, "There is such a pure woman in the world, it is really fortunate for Hewei." ”
When Du Rong saw me laughing, he also laughed, just like Wen Yu Chunchun.
"The strange women in the world are like snow-capped mountains and clear lotuses, although they are rare, they are not difficult to find." Du Rong's eyes shimmered, staring straight at me.
I followed his gaze to myself in confusion, and swept up and down, but I couldn't see anything wrong.
"You came to me on purpose, but you are in a hurry?"
"Huh?" I was busy looking for something wrong with me, and Du Rong suddenly asked, which made me a little cramped, "It's nothing, it's just ...... Let's find a quiet place to talk. ”
Du Rong stared, then nodded, led me to his study, and when I entered the study, he asked me, "Do you want to let He Wei come together?" "Reading the book nest
I nodded, "Naturally." ”
Du Rong groaned and instructed the people outside the door, "Go and invite the little general to come to the study." ”
The little guy outside the door answered and walked away quickly.
"He's going back to Beijing tomorrow, so think about it and talk to him again." Du Rong reminded me.
"What?" I was surprised, "Why did he go back to Beijing?" Miss Yun hasn't agreed to be his wife yet!"
Du Rong sat down with his sleeves brushed, opened the teapot on the table and took a look, and then closed the tea lid.
"Because the old marshal wants to make a side room for him to find the daughter of Yang Shangshu."
Today, a succession of news hit my fragile nerves, and I felt that my head was really a little dizzy.
"Side room? Could it be Yang Lan? How is that possible!" I walked back and forth with my hands in my hands, and finally walked to Du Rong's side in disbelief, clapping my hands on the desk, "With Yang Lan's past deeds, and according to the old man's temperament, I definitely don't believe that the old marshal would do this." ”
Du Rong didn't look touched at all, only lightly knocked on the porcelain white pottery wall of the teapot, and looked at me quietly with his eyes.
I was furious by his gaze, and I reflexively straightened up, but thanks to this, my thoughts were much clearer.
"What do you mean......" Seeing that Du Rong looked away by default, I couldn't help but curse angrily, "This old treacherous and cunning thing!"
Thinking of the past when I was tortured by him, I was even more annoyed, and I gritted my teeth, "Sooner or later, one day, I will also let him taste the taste of being exposed to the sun under the scorching sun and carrying a hundred pounds of sun!"
Every time the old marshal is mentioned, she always looks like she is jumping on her feet, really, really...... It's cute.
Du Rong shook his head helplessly, "Don't worry, this is just a trivial matter, and it will be solved with Weihui." ”
Hearing this, I put away the exaggerated expression on my face, lifted my clothes and sat opposite Du Rong. At this time, Jiang Hewei pushed the door and walked in, he looked at Du Rong at the desk, and then at me at the desk, and sat down thoughtfully.
"What's the matter?" Jiang and Wei asked.
Du Rong turned his head to ask, he understood very clearly, it was time for me to speak.
I didn't think much about it, and said directly, "Gu Yuancheng is injured." ”
"What!"
"What!"
Du Rong was shocked, Jiang Hewei was no better, what kind of character Gu Yuancheng was, he could be injured, you can imagine what kind of amazing news it is.
I took in their shocked expressions and picked up the teapot to pour water, but I didn't expect that there was no water in the kettle.
"Why don't you let your subordinates add water?" I looked at Du Rong suspiciously.
He had just known that there was no water in the teapot, but why had he been silent?
Du Rong squinted and smiled, bent down and took out a set of teapots that were exactly the same as those on the table from under the desk, and then took the teapot on the table under the desk.
"Someone." Du Rong called the little guy waiting outside the door, "Add tea." ”
When the little servant heard Du Rong's order, he immediately came in and took the teapot down, and after a while, a new pot of tea was served.
"There are thieves in the house, forgive me." Du Rong got up and poured a cup of tea for Jiang and Wei for me.
Du Rong said vaguely, and Jiang and Wei and I tacitly agreed that we did not ask.
"This matter is related to the pawnshop of life and death, by the way, Hewei, Du Rong should have mentioned this matter to you, right?" I had just said a beginning, and suddenly something came to mind, and I stopped to look at Jiang Hewei.
Jiang Hewei nodded, "I already know a little bit about it." ”
"Hmm." Without scruples in my heart, I continued, "That day, I went to the pawnshop of life and death not only to test them, but also to lure away the secret guards in the pawnshop of life and death. As you know, there are only three condensation branches left in the world, one in our country's palace, one in Qi's country, and one ...... I thought it was in their hands, so I cooperated with Gu Yuancheng, and he entered the pawnshop of life and death to investigate. ”
"It was supposed to be foolproof, but I didn't expect it to ......"
Du Rong thought for a while, but still a little incredulous, "It's just a small pawnshop, even if there is an unknown force behind it, how can Gu Yuancheng be injured?" Don't forget, how many times in the past few years have you wanted to kill him, but you didn't have a chance. ”
Du Rong's words made me embarrassed for a while, although the truth is like this, and there is nothing else here, but no matter what, you should save me some face, right?
"Are you trying to take advantage of this to give him no chance to turn over?" Jiang and Wei knew that I couldn't find them, so they just wanted to talk about this one thing.
Hearing Jiang Hewei talk to the point, I stopped talking and said my own purpose, "The pawnshop of life and death is undoubtedly the key to the Jiangnan case, I copied it by surprise and arrested the people inside for interrogation." ”
