Chapter 4: The Law of Kings
Shen Mixiang sensitively caught the calculation that flashed in his eyes, and knew that this matter would not be as simple as he said, so she refused without thinking about it.
"When we first met, I didn't have any conditions to talk to you about. If Duan Gongzi wants to find someone to negotiate conditions, it is better to wait for my second brother to come back. I should pay back this batch of goods, you still have to return it to me. ”
Duan Feibai pursed her lips, looking at her vigilant and hostile appearance, she couldn't help but slander, this girl doesn't seem to be so easy to fool, how can this be good?
He didn't speak, Shen Mixiang frowned, and said, "Duan Gongzi, I know that your status is noble, and it's not something that we ordinary people can offend." But this is the Sheng'an Imperial City, at the feet of the Son of Heaven, you are so openly leading officers and soldiers to seize my ship today, is it too unreasonable? ”
Hearing her words, Duan Feibai slowly narrowed his eyes, immediately got up, walked in front of her, and said with a smile: "Third Miss Shen, are you talking to me about the royal law?" ”
Shen Mixiang's heart sank, and she faintly felt that something was wrong. Face to face at such a close distance, big eyes to small eyes, the resolute coldness on his face was different from Fang Cai's lazy expression.
The man in front of her made her feel unpredictable.
"The cargo of the incoming and outgoing ships must be inspected and verified by the government every day, and only after confirming that they are correct are they allowed to be transported. Today is a daily routine of the government, but I think the origin of this batch of goods from your Shen family is unknown, so I specially asked the people of the government to pay attention to it and check it carefully. ”
Shen Mixiang gritted her teeth secretly, still maintaining a tepid look on her face, and said: "The Shen family's goods have always been justified, and there is no such thing as an unknown origin. ”
Then, she remembered something, and said coldly: "Then again, Duan Gongzi, you are also in business yourself, why, don't care about your own goods, but care about our Shen family's affairs?" ”
Duan Feibai could hear the sarcasm of her meddler, but he wasn't annoyed. If you can't find Shen Yilin, this Shen San girl is also a good candidate.
Duan Feibai smiled without saying a word, turned around and beckoned to the officers and soldiers on the side, signaling them to return the Shen family's cargo and release the Shen family's workers.
Seeing this, Steward Fan walked to Shen Mixiang's side in a few steps and said in a low voice, "Third girl, you shouldn't have come." ”
Shen Mixiang said in a deep voice: "If I don't come, what if he really burns these things?" ”
"Alas, third girl, you don't know anything. The second prince once said that this Duan Gongzi is not the kind of person who does not distinguish between right and wrong. Today's matter, I think it's nothing more than trying to force the second son to come out. But after it is really confirmed that the second son is not in the city, Duan Gongzi may stop there. ”
Shen Mixiang became more and more confused when she heard this, and said puzzledly: "Uncle Fan, I don't understand, my second brother can't come, I rushed to the rescue, what's wrong?" ”
Steward Fan glanced twice in Duan Feibai's direction, and continued to whisper: "This Duan Gongzi has something to ask the second son, but the second prince has been unwilling to help, so in order to avoid him, he left Sheng'an City overnight under the pretext of shipping. Now, I look at this posture, third girl, I'm afraid this Duan Gongzi is aiming at you. ”
Shen Mixiang was stunned: "The fact that the second brother is unwilling to help shows that it must be a tricky matter." Even if Duan Feibai really found me, he couldn't help me with my ability, so he still wasted his efforts. ”
After Duan Fei's officers and soldiers released the Shen family's cargo, the rest of the matter became simpler. In order to avoid Duan Fei's rebellion, Steward Fan hurriedly called the workers to unload all the goods from the ship.
Shen Mixiang was anxious about her batch of herbs, but because Duan Feibai was still present, it was not easy to show her urgency, so she could only keep praying in her heart that this broom star would leave quickly.
However, Duan Feibai seemed to be deliberately against her, and he always refused to leave, and he kept staring at him with interest.
