Chapter Seventy-Eight: The Thief
Knowing the use of this jade, everyone in the field turned their attention to the owner of the jade, but no one took the lead, and it seemed that they were afraid of the strength of a few people.
The old man on the stage took in all this, a sneer on his face flashed, he coughed lightly, and attracted everyone's attention to him, he continued: "In two days, I will lead you to the tomb, I hope you will make some preparations in the next two days, so as to capture the Heshi Bi in the crowd." ”
After speaking, the old man looked at a faceling and glanced at him, and the faceling said loudly: "Your Excellency's news has been delivered, so please leave, remember to come back in two days." With that, the three of them turned and left.
After hearing this, everyone also left one after another, and the people they knew at the time of departure signaled to each other, and several people gathered around and whispered.
Li Shimin and Yang Ying glanced at each other, "Brother Yang, leave together?" ”
Yang Ying nodded, and then Song Shidao also followed.
The three parties gathered in an inn and asked for a private room, and several people entered the house, while the attendants respectfully guarded the door.
Li Shimin spoke first: "What do you think of the words of that old man of the Liu family?" ”
"I've heard my father say something about He's Bi, and the old man shouldn't be lying." Song Shidao is the right color road.
Li Shimin nodded slightly, obviously agreeing with Song Shidao's opinion, Yang Ying had also heard Wan Wan talk before, and it was not much different from what he said.
"So what do you think is wrong with this?"
"I think that the old man exaggerated the role of jade, if it had that effect, he would never let it flow out, and his words today are ill-intentioned!" Yang Yingdao.
Li Shimin was deeply sure, and he continued to ask: "Do you feel strange that the people who should have appeared most have not yet appeared. ”
Yang Ying and Song Shidao said in unison: "Yu Wenhua and." ”
"Hmm" Li Shimin's brows furrowed, thinking that he was also very jealous of Yuwen Valve.
Among the several major valves, Yuwen Valve should be the strongest, and Li Valve is the most popular, Dugu Valve is not too ambitious, and only wants to keep the family business, which is related to the fact that there are not too many capable people in the Dugu Valve lineage, and Song Valve is located in a remote area, although it also has the ambition to become the owner, but due to the influence of geography, the opportunity is not large.
When it comes to Yu Wenhua, Yang Ying secretly guessed about several gate valves, no wonder Song Shidao can get along well with anyone, I think it has something to do with it, and he has a good relationship with everyone, even if he Song valve fails to win the world, the king of the opposite sex is indispensable.
Song Shidao said: "During this time, Yu Wenhua didn't seem to have made any moves, as if he was silent. ”
Several people thought so, and they had a sober view of Yang Ying, and he felt that this world was threatened by Yu Wenhua, if it weren't for Yuwen Chengdu's loyalty to him, I'm afraid they would no longer be alive now!
So Yang Ying has been paying attention to Yu Wenhua's movements, but after he became king, the news that he was obsessed with the palace, drinking all day long, ignoring political affairs, for such news, Yang Ying listened to him and forgot about him, he never believed that Yu Wenhua and such ambitious people would be content with the status quo.
"Do you think this will be Yu Wenhua's means, maybe the news of Heshi Bi from the beginning was designed by him." Li Shimin put forward his speculation.
Yang Ying glanced at Li Shimin, it was indeed very possible, but Yang Ying guessed that Li Shimin wanted to unite to fight against Yu Wenhua and.
Still, he responded: "I agree with the people. Shall we give up this battle with the clan? ”
"It's not necessary to give up, this He's Bi is indeed in the tomb guarded by the Liu family, but it's very dangerous inside, it is said that He's Bi has a certain spirituality, if you don't have a relationship with him, even if you go to the deepest part of the tomb, you won't have a chance to get it." Li Shimin said what he knew.
Of course, Yang Ying didn't want to give up He's Bi, he just said it casually, and then, he asked, "What's the use of that jade." "Although I have heard the old man say it today, I still want to hear if Li Shimin has any information about it.
"The old man is indeed exaggerating, but" Li Shimin paused, as if thinking about whether to speak, "In the first half of the tomb, there are some organs, there are not too many restrictions on entering, but in the end, only with a jade bi in his hand can he enter it." ”
"Well, with such a request, why did the old man invite so many people to go, they didn't have jade, and they couldn't enter the last level!"
"That's why I invited the two of you to come and discuss, not afraid of 10,000, just in case, if it's really a conspiracy of Yu Wenhua, we can also make some preparations."
Yang Ying looked at Song Shidao, he also looked over, obviously Li Shimin's proposal, he was also a little moved. After some hesitation, Song Shidao also agreed to cooperate, and the three parties joined together, in the front and middle sections of the tomb, the three parties cooperated, and as for the last section, the acquisition of He's Bi was determined by means, and it was impossible to cooperate.
The group had a meal together and then left.
It's just that Yang Ying returned to Zheng's mansion, and when he arrived in his room, he saw that the desk was a little messy, he remembered that it was sorted out yesterday, and Zheng Xiaoqing would not come to look through his desk, and it was even more unlikely that anyone else.
Yang Ying's first reaction was to be robbed, but there is a huge Zheng Mansion, and he doesn't steal anywhere, but it's just his own, and some of the valuable things in the house are the same, and the things that the thief stole are self-evident, fortunately, there is still a secret grid.
"Hmm" Yang Ying spit out a word lightly and muttered in a low voice: "It's really interesting?" ”
He put the Chunjun sword aside, walked to the desk, took out the jade from the dark compartment, looked at it carefully, and said loudly, "Fortunately, it was not lost." "It seems that he is deliberately speaking to others, but he is the only one in this room.
Then he said loudly, "After going out for a day, I haven't eaten yet, I'm starving to death, I want Xiaoqing to cook a few dishes and eat a good meal." After saying that, he put the jade back into the dark compartment and left.
"Brother Yang, what do you want me to see, it's going to be dark." Zheng Xiaoqing thought that Yang Ying was going to do something to her, so she said a little shyly, and still followed Yang Ying closely behind him and came to his yard.
"Shhh
When the two crept to the front of the house, the door creaked open, and a man dressed as a guard of the Zheng Mansion walked out of the room, since he was also lightly afraid of being discovered, but at the moment of opening the door, his face turned bitter melon color, but he still pretended to be calm Squeezed out a smile, and said with some slurry: "Little ...... Miss, Yang Gongzi, I just heard a strange noise in this house, so let's take a look. "The guard made up a pretty good reason.
Yang Ying's eyes narrowed slightly, "Oh, yes, what is hidden in your clothes." ”
The guard was a little scared and a little weak-hearted, he was also from Wushanzhai, so he was sorry for Zheng Xiaoqing's kindness to the guards in the past. As soon as Yang Ying said this, he put his hands on his chest, lowered his head slightly, and saw a yellow cloth exposed at the placket of his clothes, and this yellow cloth was the cloth wrapped in jade.
He hurriedly knelt on the ground and begged for mercy loudly: "Miss, it's all my fault that I was obsessed with ghosts and greedy for money, so I agreed to come and steal my son's things" and kowtowed again and again.
Unexpectedly, Yang Ying didn't ask anything, and this person recruited them all. Yang Ying asked sharply, "Who asked you to steal it?" ”
"I ...... I" The guard glanced at Zheng Xiaoqing with some trembling, and hurriedly lowered his head, "I lost my gambling money in the gambling house a few days ago, and I owed some debts, and today the creditor actually found me and asked me to steal my son's jade, so I wrote off the debt, and at the same time gave me an extra thousand taels of silver." ”
"I didn't want to agree, but the creditor said that if I didn't do it, he would let me pay it back, and if I didn't pay it back, he would cut off my hands to pay the debt.
"Miss, Yang Gongzi, please spare me! I still have an old mother and toddlers to be raised at home," he said, kowtowing incessantly, and his forehead was bleeding.
Zheng Xiaoqing looked at Yang Ying a little nervously, obviously afraid that he would blame, after all, this person was her copycat, "Brother Yang"
"It's okay" Yang Ying thought for a moment before he spoke: "This person is your copycat, you will deal with it, you can not want his life, but he must be punished, and he cannot be easily let go." ”
"Well, you go and get the punishment yourself, and then leave Wushanzhai with your family, our cottage can't afford to lose this person." Zheng Xiaoqing shouted sharply.
The guard still wanted to beg for mercy, but seeing Zheng Xiaoqing's angry face, he left with his head down.
Zheng Xiaoqing looked at Yang Ying timidly, "Brother Yang, is this punishment of mine okay?" ”
"Hmm" Yang Ying's face was expressionless, as if she was going to be angry, "If there is a problem, do you want to be punished." ”
"Huh?" When Zheng Xiaoqing heard this, she didn't react immediately, Yang Ying has always been very good to her, and this time it was the first time she heard him want to punish, and she couldn't help but feel a little frustrated, "Brother Yang wants to punish me, I accept it" Zheng Xiaoqing puffed up his chest, as if he was going to die generously.
"Then punish you to stay with me tonight," Yang Ying said casually.
"Ahh Brother Yang, how can you mention such a punishment? I...... I ......" When Zheng Xiaoqing heard this, his face seemed to be on fire, red and beautiful.
Yang Ying suddenly felt very interesting, pinched Zheng Xiaoqing's chin with her hand, lifted her pretty face slightly, and said affectionately: "Isn't Xiaoqing unwilling?" ”
"I ......" Zheng Xiaoqing was so ashamed that he couldn't speak.
"Haha, Xiaoqing, where do you want to go, there are likely to be other people coming tonight, I can't stay alone until dawn! I just wanted Xiaoqing to accompany me for one night, but I didn't expect Xiaoqing to be unwilling. Yang Ying made a disappointed look.
"Brother Yang didn't make it clear, I thought it was ...... I thought that Brother Yang wanted me to ......" Zheng Xiaoqing really couldn't open his mouth when he said the latter words.
