Chapter 1: The Unfathomable Heart of the Princes (3)
The next day, Guangling County, Yuelai Inn.
Wang Kun and his entourage arrived at the inn yesterday, and after eating and drinking, they hired someone to buy a new outfit for everyone, but they were just plain burlap clothes, and they didn't dare to be too conspicuous.
Although there were no chasing soldiers along the way, Wang Kun still didn't dare to relax his vigilance, what he had in his hand was the heirloom jade seal, and he couldn't be sloppy.
Wang Kun was dressed in a light gray burlap coat, and his lower body was also gray burlap pants, and Wu Ji and Wen Huan, who followed him to the "declining royal family", were dressed in black, but Wen Huan didn't buy a fit, and the clothes on him looked one size smaller, and the lines of the muscles were unreservedly exposed to everyone's field of vision.
Wu Ji couldn't help but hold his forehead, and said softly to Wen Yan, "Brother Wen, can you ...... A change to a bigger outfit? ”
"Why?" Wen Yu was stunned.
"You really look like that...... It's immoral, it's okay in the army, we're going to go to the streets later, and if you do this, it will definitely attract side attention. ”
"Then there's nothing I can do," Wen Yan waved his hand, "I didn't buy the clothes." ”
"Put your cloak on, and don't wear a hood." In the end, it was Wang Kun who gave advice.
Wen Yu hugged his fists and said, "Then listen to Lord Wang." ”
"Remember, you have to call me Master Wang outside." Wang Kun reminded these men who were always forgetful.
Then he turned his head to look at the men who didn't need to go with him, and said, "Don't move around here at will, if you need anything, call Xiao Er to come up and record it in the account, and if you are tired, you should rest quickly, and you may be in a hurry in a few days." ”
"Yes!"
A moment later, Wang Kun, Wen Huan, Wu Ji and his party walked out of the Yuelai Inn and plunged into the surging crowd.
"Can Master Wang find that 'royal family'?" Wu Ji asked suddenly.
"It's not difficult, it should be able to be found." Wang Kun replied as he walked, without the slightest intention of stopping.
"Then Mr. Wang went to that person's house?"
"I've never been."
Hearing this, Wu Ji frowned and asked again, "How did Master Wang find that person's home?" ”
"Ask, a royal clansman, no matter how bad it is, there should be someone
I know," Wang Kun suddenly stood sideways to the wall, making way for a cart in front of him, and the two people behind him saw this and immediately stood by the wall, and Wang Kun continued, "Although it won't be a good thing to hear." ”
"Speaking of which, what day is it?" Wen Yan turned his head to look around, this person was coming and going, and the excitement was almost over, "Why are there so many people on the street?" ”
"It's supposed to be the day of the market, right?" Wu Ji also looked around, there were indeed many pedestrians with all kinds of groceries on the street, and many of them had already set up stalls, shouting loudly, selling their goods to people passing by.
"Yamanashi, fresh Yamanashi!" An old man with gray hair sat in a corner, holding a blue-yellow pear, and at his feet there was a basket full of pears, and the water that had just been sprinkled was still shining in the sun, making those lovely pears more and more flattering.
As he walked, Wang Kun suddenly stopped in front of this small pear stall, he half-squatted down, slowly picked up a pear from the basket, and muttered, "I remember, Your Majesty likes to eat this slightly sour pear very much, obviously it is not sweet at all, but he always eats it very happily." ”
"Master Wang, what did you just say?" Wu Jifu leaned down and asked.
Wang Kun came to his senses at this time, he was stunned for a moment, and said, "Oh, it's nothing. ”
"This man, do you want to buy pears? It's cheap! Two pennies a pound! Seeing that Wang Kun was interested in buying his own pears, the old man's expression immediately became excited.
Wang Kun nodded and said, "Sell me all the pears you have, even the basket." ”
Wu Ji naturally stepped forward, mentioning the basket of pears, Wang Kun nodded at him, and then said to the old man, "Old man, let me ask you about something, is there a royal family member in the city?" Do you know where his home is? ”
"Royalty?" The old man touched the handle, thought for a while and said, "You mean the Ye family who sells straw sandals, right?" I remember that their family seems to live in Huaiyuan Lane in the east of the city, it is not difficult to find, you can find it when you inquire there, the quality of their straw sandals is good, and many people like to buy it there. ”
"But it's thanks to you that you're here to ask me, if you ask someone else, I guess I won't know, this Ye family was a little bit a few decades ago
assets, but more than ten years ago, a loser lost all the money they had. ”
As he spoke, the old man sighed softly and sighed, "Creation makes people." ”
Only then did Wang Kun take out a broken piece of silver from his arms and hand it to the old man.
"Master, I'm sorry," the old man sneered, not reaching out to take the broken silver, "I can't find a small business." ”
"No need to look for it." Wang Kun said lightly.
Hearing Wang Kun's words, the old man was suddenly stunned for a moment, as if he couldn't believe it, and asked, "Master, what did you just say?" ”
"I said I didn't need to look for it." When he said this, Wang Kun directly stuffed the money into the old man's hand, and then left without looking back.
"Ahh Thank you, sir! Little Old Man...... Appreciate! The old man's eyes were full of tears, and he looked at the direction in which Wang Kun left, as if he wanted to kowtow to Wang Kun twice.
Not far away, Wen Yan looked at the pear in Wu Ji's hand, scratched his head, and asked, "Master Wang, what are you doing when you buy a basket of pears?" ”
Wang Kun glanced at him, "I bought it for you to eat." ”
"But aren't we going to visit that little clan later?" Wen Yu cleverly transformed the words "royal clansmen" into small clansmen, which not only met their situation, but also did not leave behind the fact that they were royal clansmen, "Take a basket of pears with you, not very good?" ”
"What's so bad?" This time, Wu Ji spoke up, "Didn't you say that their family was not in a good situation? This basket of pears should be used as a gift for their family. ”
"You're really embarrassed to give pears to others as a greeting gift."
"Okay, you two are poor, let's go." Wang Kun quickened his pace.
"Yes."
......
After a while, Wang Kun and his entourage asked a few passers-by, and finally found the home of the "royal family".
A low and old hut is very suitable for the deserted and gray alley in Huaiyuan Lane.
Wang Kun walked to the front of the room, cleared his throat, raised his hand and knocked on the door, "Is there anyone?" ”
After a long time, the voice of the answer came from the room, it was a soft male voice, "Coming, treat later." ”
