Chapter 561 Eat and drink enough, and do things smoothly
When Wang Mang, Shangguan Ningxuan and Su Rong came to the door of the inn, one of the innkeepers greeted them with a smile on their faces.
He bowed slightly, and did the etiquette very well, giving people the feeling that the customer was God.
"Three guest officers, please!"
Wang Mang nodded and strode in.
Then I took a look and found that the layout of the inn was exactly the same as that of other Yuelai inns, divided into three levels.
However, since it is not dinner time at this moment, there are not many guests, only three or five tables, and they are all drinking tea and chatting. There was only one table of guests who were eating.
The little servant led Wang Mang and the three of them to a table, and then quickly flicked the towel and wiped the table bench, "Three guest officers, I don't know what you all need?" ”
Wang Mang said: "Let's serve three dishes casually, two meat and one vegetable, plus a soup and a pot of wine." ”
"Okay, guest officer, please wait, the wine and food will be here soon." The little guy replied.
After Wang Mang ordered the food, he didn't pay attention to the other guests, let alone gossip with Shangguan Ningxuan, he clenched the Fengtian Sword at his waist with his left hand, closed his eyes, and seemed to be recuperating.
Shangguan Ningxuan, the old god, fiddled with his teacup by himself, and ignored Wang Mang, as if he didn't know Wang Mang at all.
She knew what Wang Mang was doing, and she expected that the number of people in this inn was small, and she didn't need to help investigate it together.
Su Rong was surprised when she saw this.
In her opinion, Wang Mang and Shangguan Ningxuan have a deep relationship, and now that they have sat down, the two of them should have an endless chat. Even she was ready to go in her left ear and out in her right ear.
But now, Wang Mang closed his eyes and recuperated, Shangguan Ningxuan drank tea lightly, and didn't say a word, like a stranger in two worlds, which made her very strange.
"Didn't the two of them have a lot of affection just now? Why don't you talk now? Could it be that their previous sweetness was faked? Su Rong muttered secretly, look left, look right.
However, since Wang Mang and Shangguan Ningxuan didn't speak, she didn't want to speak rashly, and she didn't know how to speak.
Suddenly, this scene became cold, giving Su Rong a very embarrassing feeling.
If it weren't for the fact that there were some guests chatting and talking at the guest table next to her, she really couldn't stay and couldn't stand this oppressive atmosphere. I instantly felt in my heart that it was actually better for Wang Mang and Shangguan Ningxuan to flirt on the street just now than not to speak.
This silence lasted for more than ten minutes, and Su Rong felt like a year in these ten minutes, much more tired than just shopping all morning.
As for Shangguan Ningxuan, she kept drinking water, cup after cup, as if she was thirsty.
By the fifteenth minute, the awkward scene was finally broken. It was the servant who brought the food and wine.
When this little guy saw this situation at first, he was also slightly surprised, and he didn't know why the guests at this table didn't speak one by one.
"Three guest officers, the dishes you ordered have been served, please use them slowly. Please feel free to say hello if needed. ”
"Okay, I see, you go get busy." Shangguan Ningxuan waved his hand.
The little servant answered, quickly left the table, and went about his own business.
Shangguan Ningxuan said to Su Rong: "Mrs. Su, eat." As he spoke, he picked up his chopsticks, poured up the wine, and drank it to himself, as if there was no one else.
"This, that" Su Rong felt that this atmosphere was not right, and she couldn't eat it: "Miss Shangguan, doesn't he eat it?" ”
"He? Leave him alone, he'll eat when he's hungry. This guy has always been like this, when it's time to eat, he doesn't know what's going on, he always ignores people, you just get used to it. ”
"And what's going on? He's not sick, is he? Su Rong exclaimed.
"Maybe, I can't say anyway, it's useless to check Lang Zhong, I'll ask him one day." Shangguan Ningxuan replied in a similar manner.
"Poof" Su Rong was amused at once, "You two must have something to hide from me, no, this won't work, I have to wake him up." ”
"Don't, just let him do this, it's okay, let's just eat well, whatever he does, he won't die of hunger anyway." Shangguan Ningxuan chewed a piece of beef and said vaguely.
Su Rong thought about it, ignored Wang Mang, picked up the chopsticks and ate, and at the same time poured herself a small half glass of wine.
The two of them ate for about two or three minutes, and then Wang Mang opened his eyes and showed a smile on his face.
Then he glanced at the two girls and said dissatisfiedly: "I said that you two don't call me why don't you just talk about it for a while?" ”
After Shangguan Ningxuan saw Wang Mang's smile, she immediately knew that Wang Mang had gained something, and she was very happy in her heart.
"What did you tell you to do? It's okay if you don't eat a meal anyway. Besides, when did you eat something that wasn't like this? Shangguan Ningxuan complained, and then poured a full glass of wine for Wang Mang and sent it to Wang Mang's mouth, "No, drink it." ”
"It's better to be a lady!"
Wang Mang grabbed Shangguan Ningxuan's wrist and drank all the wine in the wine glass. Then he picked up a slice of beef and said to Shangguan Ningxuan: "Come, ah, open your mouth." ”
Seeing this situation, Su Rong shook her head and sighed constantly: "Tut-tut, tsk, tsk, you guys, I can't stand you anymore." ”
She has already made up her mind in her heart, and she will resolutely not come out with the two of them in the future, and she will not come out if she is killed, it is too boring.
The three of them ate for about seventeen or eighteen minutes before it was finished, Wang Mang took a hanging copper coin to settle the bill, and then pulled Shangguan Ningxuan to get up and leave.
The little guy took the copper coin and said to Wang Mang's back: "Slow down the guest officer, welcome to come again next time!" ”
When Wang Mang had just stepped out of the door of the inn, he paused, for about half a minute, coughed three times, and then returned along the way he came.
Su Rong was puzzled: "Lord Wang, are you going back?" You're not looking for someone from the Ji family? When you came out in the morning, you were arrogant, saying that you wanted to arrest a few masters of the Ji family to avenge the Shangguan family and Wang Jingyan's father. ”
Wang Mang replied: "I'm a high-ranking and powerful person, why do I need to arrest people myself?" The last time I arrested you, it was because you were a woman, and I just gave you a face. By the time we got back to the City Lord's Mansion, my men had already taken people back for me. This time, I didn't run for nothing, and I did two big things. ”
"Done two big things? Which two? Why didn't I see it? Su Ronghu said suspiciously.
"The first thing, I walked around for most of the day, and I did find someone from the Ji family and completed the task of coming out this time. The second thing is that I basically confirmed something, and I probably found a trace of the secret contact information of the Ji family. Thinking about it, the next time I arrest the master of the Ji family, I don't have to spend any energy at all, just order to arrest it directly. ”
"Oh? Have you found someone from the Ji family? Figured out their secret contacts? How I didn't find out. I see that you haven't done anything for most of the day, just flirting with Miss Shangguan all the way. If this can also accomplish great things, then how do you tell those tired intelligence officers to survive? ”
"Hehe, you don't understand this, do you? I call this the help of God. As long as God helps, where is there so much trouble in doing work? If God doesn't help, no matter how hard I try, it's useless.
Today I was lucky, God favored me and let my conjecture be verified. Okay, let's go back and rest for a while, and then I'll roast you a suckling pig. When we are really full of food and drink, we will slowly interrogate those people from the Ji family. ”
