Chapter 45: Silent Separation
"Little Hou Ye, why didn't you call me to go?" Chen Tai was puzzled.
Li Sicong hesitated slightly, and then said: "First of all, this matter must be investigated clearly, but we must pay attention to the method, you go so recklessly, then Xing Fatzi will definitely not admit it, and even if he admits that the perpetrator is his own person, the so-called death has no proof, if it is not his own instructions to bite to death, we can't do anything with it, and more importantly, do you think that a rich businessman alone has the courage to fight the idea of this marquis?" ”
Chen Tai realized: "Could it be ...... Could it be that there is someone behind this guy? If that's the case......"
"If that's the case, we can't even startle the snake, it's better to calculate the bottom of the kettle!" Hu Qing raised his eyebrows.
"Bottom of the kettle? How to smoke? ”
"Tell me what you think."
Li Sicong and Chen Tai looked at Hu Qing at the same time.
Hu Qing stretched out his hand and stroked his beard: "There is no impermeable wall in this world, it is estimated that the assassination and poisoning of the little marquis has been known to some people, pay attention, this part of the people I am talking about must be people who are very concerned about this matter, and these people naturally include the people behind the murderer." ”
"Go on." Li Sicong said.
Hu Qing nodded, and then said: "Think about it, who wants the little marquis to die the most now?" It must be the instigator behind this murderer, because once the little marquis is dead, his heart can be completely settled, of course, the purpose of this instructor is not only to hope that the little marquis is dead, but also to get the chicken that can lay golden eggs in the hands of the little marquis, that is, the stove that makes perfume. ”
"I see." Chen Taidao.
Li Sicong on the side also nodded and said: "That's right, Lao Hu analyzed it thoroughly, in this case, if we want to lure out this wolf, it seems that we have to release the bait first." ”
"Little Hou Ye means ......"
"Hold an auction."
Li Sicong's faint words made Hu Qing and Chen Tai both a little puzzled: "Auction? What is an Auction? ”
Li Sicong looked at the two of them a little strangely, and he also realized that there was a term 'auction' in the Tang Dynasty, so he had to briefly say a few words about the general rules of the auction with the two.
The two of them heard Li Sicong's explanation, and they were also clear for most of it, and the doubts on their faces disappeared a lot.
"Little Marquis, when are we going to hold an auction?" Chen Tai asked.
Li Sicong did not hesitate and said: "Of course, the sooner the better, as for the venue of the auction, it will be set up in the Yingxian Restaurant." ”
"Yingxian Restaurant?"
Chen Tai and Hu Qing glanced at each other, and then asked, "Little Marquis, don't we want to book a room?" ”
"Huh, a room?"
Li Sicong chuckled, and then said, "Wrap up the entire restaurant for me!" ”
"What? The whole restaurant!? ”
When Chen Tai and Hu Qing heard this, they both browsed their eyebrows: "Little Hou Ye, don't you have a fever, this, this is very expensive, it is estimated that it will cost at least two hundred gold ...... every day."
"Don't give me money, just do as I say, and you can do it now." Li Sicong said.
"Yes."
Chen Tai nodded in agreement, and then said, "I'll go down and make arrangements." ”
"Little Marquis, I'm going to get busy."
When Hu Qing finished speaking, he turned around and left with Chen Tai.
"Wait."
Li Sicong stopped the two: "Help me buy a roast chicken and come back, I'm hungry, remember, it must be roasted to a brown!" ”
"Yes, little marquis."
The two said yes, pushed open the door and walked out.
Li Sicong sat on the bed, looked at the bright light outside the window and sighed, and then lifted the quilt and covered his head.
......
Two days have passed in a blink of an eye.
During this period, Li Sicong took medicine on time, in addition to talking to Li Yan'er, he went to check the results of his mirror.
A total of ten square mirrors, after polishing and cutting and inlay, they were made into beautiful hand mirrors by Li Sicong, with 90 faces.
All this, Li Sicong concealed from anyone, or to be precise, it was ordered by him that no one could enter the back garden.
At this moment, Li Sicong was sitting in his room, looking at the mirror on the side with tea in his hand, his face full of pride.
Dangdang!
At this moment, a sharp knock on the door came, which made Li Sicong look sideways: "Who?" ”
"It's me, little marquis!"
An old-fashioned voice came from outside the door, but it was Hu Qing who was true.
"Come in!"
As soon as Li Sicong's words came out, the door was pushed open one by one, and Hu Qing also followed into the room.
However, if you look closely, you can see that Hu Qing's expression has a hint of anxiety.
"What's so in a hurry? Sit down and speak slowly. Li Sicong said.
Hu Qing shook his head and sighed, and said, "Little Hou Ye has no time, Miss Li, she, they're gone!" ”
"Gone!?"
Li Sicong heard this, but he spit out the tea he was about to swallow just now: "When did it happen?" ”
"Not long ago, this is a letter from the guard outside the door."
As Hu Qing spoke, he reached out and took out a yellow envelope from his arms and handed it to Li Sicong.
Li Sicong hurriedly took the envelope, opened it and took a look, and saw the lines of handwriting, and his expression shook involuntarily.
"Little Marquis, what does the letter say?" Hu Qing asked.
The muscles of Li Sicong's jaws moved slightly: "They are moving forward with a caravan." ”
"Caravans?"
Hu Qing first raised his eyebrows, and then understood: "This method is not bad, at least there is no need to consider safety, the person who protects the goods, which one is an ordinary person?" ”
"Are there any horses outside?" Li Sicong asked.
"Yes, but ......"
"I'll pick it up, and I'll hand it over to you."
As Li Sicong spoke, he reached out and stuffed the letter into his sleeve, and at the same time reached out and grabbed two mirrors and stuffed them into his arms, and then went straight out of the door.
"Little Marquis, Little ......"
Seeing Li Sicong leaving, Hu Qing didn't know how to speak, so he had to shake his head and say, "That's it." ”
After the words fell, Hu Qing also walked out of the door and stretched out his hand to close the door.
......
"Drive! Drive! ”
Li Sicong rode a maroon horse and went all the way north after leaving the North City Gate.
Along the way, everywhere Li Sicong went, there was a burst of yellow dust and the sound of hurried horses.
About half an hour later, a pair of merchant teams appeared in Li Sicong's sight, the team was very large, stretching for miles before and after, and there must be 100 people to guard the bodyguards all the way.
With such a large and spectacular team, as long as it is not an eye-opening guy, no one dares to mess with it.
