Chapter 928: What Do You Want?
After confirming the tokens, the generals still put them in.
Wen Qingzhu didn't hesitate and went straight to the inn that Lu Ce had only given them before.
When he saw them coming, someone immediately led them to a separate courtyard.
Wen Qingzhu asked them to pack up their things with peace of mind, while she sat in the courtyard and waited.
According to her prediction, the second prince's people should also come.
It's just that the second prince's people didn't come over, but news came from outside the city, saying that the second prince shot a group of people with arrows.
After Wen Qingzhu listened, he stepped forward and continued to wait.
But she can't sit still now, because they are bucking the trend, and it should be very conspicuous according to the situation.
The second prince can accumulate step by step, which shows that he still has the ability to do things.
At least in terms of the stability of his power, although he doesn't have much ability, when he wants to be in charge of the army, it is the easiest to kill the people in question.
Waiting, waiting, there were finally footsteps outside.
Wen Qingzhu immediately stood up, and soon the courtyard door was opened, and the person who appeared in front of him-
It turned out to be the second prince!
He was still wearing armor and holding a bloody knife in his hand, and he stuck it into the scabbard and strode in.
When he saw Wen Qingzhu, his eyes were very picky, as if he was not very satisfied.
But soon the second prince put his eyes on her eyes, and suddenly said, "You are Xiaoshui?" ”
Wen Qingzhu immediately raised his hand and saluted: "Yes, His Royal Highness the Second Prince." ”
Seeing that she was so well-behaved, the second prince was a little dissatisfied: "You are the only one who comes here?" ”
Wen Qingzhu nodded: "Yes!" There are others, but they are all people who do things for me. ”
The second prince walked in quickly, Wen Qingzhu immediately got out of the way and asked him to sit down: "The second prince sits here." ”
Who knew that the second prince didn't pay attention to her at all, but walked directly into the house.
Wen Qingzhu had no choice but to follow, looking at him and looking at his still somewhat messy room.
There were only Feitian and Jatamansong in the house, and when they saw them enter, they immediately bowed their heads and retreated.
The second prince stopped in the middle of the room, shook his head again and again, and finally turned his head to look at Wen Qingzhu and said: "I thought you were a powerful woman, but now it looks like this, although there are not many women in the eldest brother, but a person like you should not be entrusted with a heavy task by him." ”
Wen Qingzhu hurriedly explained: "I was not entrusted with a heavy task by the eldest prince, but I just got a little entrustment by chance, and I have been following the last wish of the eldest prince. ”
When these words came out, the second prince walked up with great interest, stretched out his hand to lift Wen Qingzhu's chin, looked at it carefully, and finally said very dissatisfied: "The posture is average, but I still like these eyes a little." ”
Letting go of his hand, the second prince turned around and sat down, looked at Wen Qingzhu and asked, "Say, what do you want?" ”
Wen Qingzhu looked up at him fixedly: "I want to kill the sixth prince." ”
"Oh? The sixth prince is the eldest brother's own brother, and if you do this, it will make the eldest brother feel cold. The second prince deliberately reminded him of the identity of the sixth prince.
Wen Qingzhu sneered: "It's because I'm a brother that I want to do it!" ”
The second prince suddenly raised his hand, slapped it a few times, and finally had a trace of appreciation in his eyes when he looked at Wen Qingzhu.
"Good! I'll help you! ”
Wen Qingzhu still didn't relax, but looked at the second prince and said, "Now the second prince's own affairs haven't been resolved." ”
"Can you help me?" The second prince looked at her quietly.
Wen Qingzhu nodded: "Naturally!" But this matter needs the second prince to believe me! ”
The second prince looked at her intently: "What do you know?" ”
"I know a lot." Wen Qingzhu met his gaze, "Don't say anything else, I have been to the country of Qi for a while, and I have done nothing, only two things, learning Chinese language and medical skills." ”
When he arrived here, the second prince slowly stood up, suddenly drew his sword, his blood coagulated on the blade, and pointed at Wen Qingzhu's neck and asked, "Since you have already left, why do you want to come back!" ”
Wen Qingzhu said fearlessly: "When I left, I promised the eldest prince, and now I come back on time, it's just to keep my promise, why did the second prince ask like this?" ”
The two of them confronted each other so silently, and for a long time, the second prince slowly put down his sword.
Wen Qingzhu bent his knees: "Thank you for the trust of the second prince." ”
Raising his head, Wen Qingzhu said directly to him: "In order to show my sincerity, I will deal with the poisoning incident in Tianying City, and I will definitely give the second prince a satisfactory answer within three days." ”
"Three days?" The second prince raised his eyebrows, "It's too long, this time tomorrow, I want to see the results of your processing, if you really have the ability, show me your ability over there!" ”
After saying this, the second prince instructed the tall and thin man beside him, turned his head and left with his own people.
Wen Qingzhu watched him walk without moving a single step.
When he was completely far away, someone from the inn came to close the door, Wen Qingzhu breathed a sigh of relief, and his palms were full of sweat.
As soon as she turned around, she saw Zuo Bingning, Tudan, and Beidou all walking out. Nine cakes in Chinese
Wen Qingzhu walked to the table and sat down, his body was still soft.
So her steps are slow, and her movements are slow, as if time has been stretched.
What she didn't know was that in the eyes of others, Wen Qingzhu walked step by step, but she was extraordinarily steady, which made everyone's hearts settle down.
Zuo Bingning was the one who reacted the fastest, and hurriedly ran over and sat down, holding Wen Qingzhu's hand trembling: "I was really scared to death just now!" I didn't expect you to be so calm and calm at this time, when you were facing the second prince of the Huns! Simply a role model for me! ”
Wen Qingzhu wanted to explain, but Zuo Bingning had already preemptively said, "I've decided!" Even if I can't do this, I will be close to you in the future! ”
Seeing that she was so confident, Wen Qingzhu swallowed her words back.
The courtyard was quickly put in order, and Wen Qingzhu kept it in mind about the words of the second prince.
It's just that she's new to the city, and she doesn't know much about things in the city.
The only person who can help her is Lu Ce, but she has already surrendered to the second prince, so his people must be staring at her in secret.
Wen Qingzhu would not contact Lu Ce at this time, and naturally, Lu Ce would not take the initiative to send it to the door.
"Is it a day......
She muttered to herself, and the second child outside came in a hurry, not noticing the strangeness in the house at all, and only hurriedly said: "My second uncle did a good job in the firewood room and was not affected." ”
Wen Qingzhu turned his head to look, and the idea involuntarily came to his mind.
She stood up, pointed outside and said, "Anyway, I just came here today, your second uncle has been in the city, and I don't know anyone else, can you ask your second uncle to take me around?" ”
Xiao Er was stunned: "This can't be done, although the second uncle is working in the firewood room, their firewood is supplied to the palace, it can be regarded as doing things for the second prince, if he leaves his post without permission......"
"If this is considered an abstinence, then you can take me over and have a look, right?" Wen Qingzhu didn't ask for much, he just wanted to find a breakthrough.
Having said that, Xiao Er had no reason to refuse, so he could only take Wen Qingzhu to his second uncle's side.
To Wen Qingzhu's surprise, the place where Xiao Er's second uncle worked turned out to be a very airtight place.
There were no windows in the huge tin shed, only a very small door.
Wen Qingzhu approached the vicinity of this firewood house and found that the people working here were all old people.
The second uncle of Xiao Er is still very conspicuous among these people, because he is only responsible for directing the slaves to work.
But just like this, Wen Qingzhu still found that the second uncle had a very serious rheumatism.
His meridians, visibly twisted to the naked eye, his bones, didn't look straight at all.
"Second master!" Xiao Er immediately shouted.
His second uncle heard the shout, squinted at it, and hurriedly limped over: "Why are you little guy here again?" Didn't you just come here once? ”
Xiao Er pointed sideways at Wen Qingzhu and introduced: "This is Lord Xiaoshui, and the new boss I told you, she is very good to me, I just entered the city today, I heard that you are working here, so I wanted to come and have a look." ”
His second uncle looked at Wen Qingzhu with his eyes, and slowly looked at it.
Suddenly, a sentence popped up: "I'm afraid you haven't taken a fancy to my nephew, right?" ”
Xiao Er was startled, and hurriedly waved his hand to defend: "Second uncle, second uncle!" Don't talk nonsense! Adults are different from us! ”
His second uncle didn't like to see Wen Qingzhu very much, but Wen Qingzhu didn't care, just took two steps inside.
I happened to see a slave pushing a cart with half-wet firewood on it, and it still smelled musty.
Wen Qingzhu frowned: "This is the firewood sent to the palace?" ”
"What! Such good firewood! You can't even look at it! His second uncle was obviously very unhappy.
Wen Qingzhu said with a smile, pointing to this iron shed and said: "Instead of keeping firewood like this, you should build a suspended stilted building, which can effectively isolate moisture and store it in the shade when it is hot in summer." ”
His second uncle didn't understand at all, Wen Qingzhu picked up a branch casually and drew it on the ground: "Probably like this......"
She explained as she painted.
Graphics are the most intuitive way of communication for the Huns, and with Wen Qingzhu's explanation, his second uncle quickly understood.
When he turned around, he praised Wen Qingzhu with a face: "My lord is really smart!" ”
Wen Qingzhu smiled, threw the branch on the ground, turned his head and asked his second uncle: "I see that there are not many slaves here, it should be that there is no firewood in the palace, right?" ”
"Nothing to use! They still want to use charcoals! I heard that I also want silver silk charcoal that can only be produced in Qi country, and it is said that there is no smoke in such a charcoal fire! As long as it's charcoal firewood! How can there be no smoke! ”
His second uncle crossed his waist and looked angry.
Wen Qingzhu nodded again and again, and said according to his meaning: "It's really impossible, there is no charcoal fire in this world that doesn't produce smoke, but I just happened to know that there is indeed a kind of charcoal called silver silk charcoal in Qi Kingdom, which produces less smoke and dust than candles, so it is extremely precious." ”
"Is there really one?" His second uncle was stunned, obviously still not convinced.
Wen Qingzhu changed the topic: "This thing is very rare in the Qi Kingdom, how can the people in the palace know this?" The second prince I have always known is not such a person at all, is there anyone else? ”
"That's not it!" When his second uncle thought of this incident, he felt aggrieved.
He simply pulled Wen Qingzhu to sit under the shady shed: "The second prince is even better than the first king, but those women of his are really more hypocritical than the other!" I remember that our Hun women are not like this at all! Even if it's the Lord Yan in front, it's not like this! ”
