"How can I know about you?"

"Hahahaha~~!! How can everything in the world be clearly distinguished? Just like these treasure horses in the Qilong Mansion, in the eyes of others, they are in the palace, and the people who ride them are either rich or noble, and they may even be today, they are noble and extraordinary. But I thought that what they longed for in their hearts was to gallop the world, unrestrained, not here in obscurity until old age and death. Others have different opinions, and sometimes the facts are often different because of this. Brother Ma, what do you think of me, a thousand-mile treasure horse? Guo Jia first laughed loudly, and then his eyes were sharp, as if embedded in Ma Zongheng's eyes, and asked slowly.

Ma Zongheng smiled faintly and replied softly: "I heard that when I was filial piety, I let the horses go privately because I heard the mourning of the horses. If one day, I am willing to open the shackles for Fengxiao, but you don't want to gallop out of this stable? ”

When Guo Jia heard this, he smiled even brighter, and replied leisurely: "I was determined to die that day, and Brother Ma knows that once he is shocked, it will be a death sentence." And if everyone hadn't looked at Yuan Benchu's face, I would have been in a different place a long time ago. ”

After that, Guo Jia turned around and left, showing a chic look. Ma Zongheng understood a little, of course Guo Jia was not grateful to Yuan Shao, but reminded Ma Zongheng that if he didn't have Yuan Shao as a shelter and let the horses go without permission, it would be a dead end. In other words, he secretly reminded Ma Zongheng that he wanted to release his thousand-mile treasure horse, and I was afraid that he would have to improve his strength.

Ma Zongheng smiled, silently turned his eyes back, slowly pulled up the flying star bow, and immediately aimed at the arrow target, the bowstring 'snapped', and the arrow flew like thunder, I don't know if it was a coincidence, it hit the heart!

At night, after Ma Zongheng left the palace, he came to the most prosperous street in Luoyang, ready to choose jewelry for Liu Xueyu, and walked to a jewelry shop with three large-character plaques of 'Yuque Xuan'. Ma Zongheng took out his money bag, weighed it a little, and felt that there were at least dozens of taels of gold in it, and even if it was not enough, he could go back and get it again, after all, if a goddess like Liu Xueyu gave hundreds of taels of gold jewelry at every turn, it would only make him look exaggerated, like a gentleman disciple, of course, if it was a stall, Ma Zongheng really couldn't give it away.

In the shopkeeper inside, when he saw Ma Zongheng wearing an official uniform walking in, his eyes lit up at first, but then he saw that he was young and didn't even bring an entourage, and the excitement on his face instantly faded most, and he seemed to be very interested. Ma Zongheng saw that the shopkeeper was a man in his fifties, neat and tidy, and a very shrewd old man, so he first smiled and said: "The shopkeeper, can there be a more beautiful hosta?" ”

When the shopkeeper heard that Ma Zongheng was going to choose a hosta, he couldn't help but raise his spirit, and said with a smile while rubbing his hands: "Yes, yes, yes." Wait a minute, I have a few good ones here. It's just the price. ”

"The price is not a problem, as long as you look satisfied, of course I don't have much money on me, it's really not enough, I'll bring enough silver to get it tomorrow." Ma Zongheng said with a smile, he has never valued money very much, or this arrogance, so that the shopkeeper values him a little, and he doesn't talk nonsense, he turned over and skillfully tinkered for a while, and then took out a few precious boxes made of rosewood, first opened one, inside is a peony hosta with good color and bright color, Ma Zongheng looked at it a few times, smiled and shook his head. The shopkeeper showed a little disappointed, then put away the peony hosta, and then opened another one, this hosta is even more precious, it is made of sheep fat jade, in the shape of a phoenix, to build fine, see Ma Zongheng secretly surprised, thinking that if this hosta is preserved to future generations, at least it will be auctioned for tens of billions of pounds.

"Hehe, the guest officer really has a vision. This hosta is named Feng Jixiang, but I am the treasure of the town store of Yuque Xuan, and I can't hide it, and many children of royal families in Luoyang want to buy this Feng Jixiang. The shopkeeper smiled smugly, but he didn't mean to continue.

Ma Zongheng's heart is as clear as a mirror, the biggest reason why the children of those royal families fell in love with this Feng Jixiang but did not buy it must be that this Feng Jixiang is expensive.

Seeing that Ma Zongheng was silent, the shopkeeper secretly gritted his teeth, and said with a look of being cut meat: "Guest officer, I see that you are refreshing, but you are not talking nonsense, this Feng Jixiang originally offered three thousand taels of gold, as long as you are willing to buy it, I will have one thousand taels of gold!" If it weren't for the fact that the situation in Luoyang has become more and more unstable in recent years, the small one is a person from Nanyang, and today he intends to move his family back to Jingzhou for refuge, this Feng Jixiang Mo said three thousand taels of gold, as long as he meets someone who knows the goods, ten thousand taels of gold can also be sold! Eh, now it's all gone! ”

Ma Zongheng listened, his eyes lit up, what the shopkeeper said was not a lie, if it was in a peaceful and prosperous world, with the auspicious color, quality, and carving of this phoenix, it was really worth tens of thousands of taels of gold. The shopkeeper saw that Ma Zongheng did not flinch, and secretly rejoiced, in fact, he had already packed his bags and was ready to leave Luoyang in half a month, otherwise he would not have dismissed all his buddies and stayed alone in this shop.

"Shopkeeper, I really like your Feng Jixiang, but I really don't have so many silver taels." As soon as Ma Zongheng's words came out, the shopkeeper suddenly darkened his face, closed the wooden box with a cold snort, and turned around to put it back. Ma Zongheng saw that there was still one who didn't look at it, so he hurriedly called the shopkeeper. The shopkeeper reluctantly turned around, and his attitude was a little cold: "It's not too early for the guest officer, if you don't want to buy this jewelry, don't fool the old man, this street goes down for a while, there is also a jewelry seller, and the things there should be more suitable for you." ”

Ma Zongheng was obedient and not angry, and said with a smile: "Okay." After reading the last box, if it doesn't please me, I turn around and leave, and never disturb the shopkeeper again. ”

"Okay." The shopkeeper saw that Ma Zongheng looked sincere, sighed, bowed slightly, opened the last rosewood box, Ma Zongheng looked, his expression moved, but saw that the hosta is made of jade, the hosta looks simple, but the color is not much more than that Feng auspicious, in a closer look, there is a small jade mink made of fine hairpin.

"Huh? Shopkeeper, can you take it for me to see? Ma Zongheng suddenly asked. When the shopkeeper heard this, he couldn't hide it, and while handing it over, he said: "This jade mink hairpin is also a first-class product, but it was accidentally broken many years ago, and the jade mink is missing a small opening, so there is a trace of flaw." If the guest officer wants it, I think I have a fate with you, and I want you to pay for a hundred taels of gold. ”

After Ma Zongheng took it, he took a closer look, his eyes shone brightly, and the more he looked at it, the more he was happy, the small opening of this jade hairpin was not obvious at all, in fact, Ma Zongheng just took it to take a closer look, and then tried how Wen Ze was. It turns out that the best treasure jade has the effect of being warm in winter and cool in summer, just like now that although the cold winter has passed, the climate is still quite cold.

Ma Zongheng shook it lightly, and felt the warmth of this jade hairpin, and couldn't help but smile, very satisfied, and wanted to buy it.

At this time, suddenly a cold woman's voice came from behind.

"Shopkeeper, I want this jade hairpin. This is a hundred taels of gold, you points! ”

There was a 'pop' sound, and I saw a black burden already appearing on the wooden table. Ma Zongheng frowned, also took out the money bag, looked at the wood case 'snapped', and said coldly: "Old shopkeeper, I want this jade hairpin, but I don't have so many silver taels on my body, there are dozens of taels of gold here, the right is a deposit, I will personally send the rest of the money later!" ”

"Humph! What a corrupt official, at a young age, carries so much silver taels with him, I'm afraid that a lot of it is people's fat and people's ointment! Shopkeeper, such a shameless beast who exploits the people, will you sell him such a fine treasure!? There was a bit of anger in the cold woman's voice.

Ma Zongheng was angry when he heard this, and turned around and scolded: "Girl, don't spew blood!" I won back these silver taels, and you just threw out a hundred taels of gold, isn't it more instructive!! ”

Ma Zongheng's voice stopped abruptly, all because he was shocked by the stunning face of the woman in front of him. I saw the body of Tsing Yi, the phoenix eyes were upturned, the eyebrows were slender, and there was a heroic righteousness between the eyebrows, and the unyielding coldness. Looking at the skin as white as snow, in the cold expression, people dare not approach, but they are intoxicated by her, like an ice lotus in the boundless glacier.

"It's you!?" The woman in Tsing Yi seemed to know Ma Zongheng and exclaimed. Ma Zongheng's face froze, and suddenly he felt that the woman in Tsing Yi was a little familiar, and there was a sense of déjà vu.

"This Ma Zongheng really came to Luoyang, but I didn't expect to meet him here. If he recognizes his identity, I am afraid that there will be a lot of inconvenience. "The woman in Tsing Yi was Wang Ying who received Wang Yue's order and went to Luoyang. In order to raise funds, he had to teach his subordinates to sell a hosta, which was a relic of Wang Ying's mother.

Wang Ying came over this time to redeem the hosta of the year. As soon as she arrived, she saw a young man in an official uniform playing with a hosta, and she was anxious, and as soon as she heard the price offered by the shopkeeper, she threw away the silver taels first, wanting to buy the hosta first.

"The girl knows Ma?" Ma Zongheng saw that Wang Ying's expression had changed a little, and couldn't help asking. Wang Ying had found out that the hosta in Ma Zongheng's hand was not his mother's relic at all, and her heart couldn't help but relax, so she hurriedly grabbed back the black burden full of silver taels, glanced at Ma Zongheng coldly and said, "I don't know you, I won't buy this hairpin!" ”

With that, Wang Ying turned around and hurried away. Ma Zongheng and the old shopkeeper were also shocked when they saw this. Ma Zongheng watched the woman in Tsing Yi walk away, and couldn't help but smile at the old shopkeeper: "The temper of a beautiful woman has always been weird, not to mention such a natural appearance." ”

"Haha, it seems that the little brother is a fellow believer. Back then, the old man was also a beautiful man in love, and there were many girls in Luoyang who wanted to marry the old man! I will accept your deposit first, and you can bring the hairpin. It's not too early, and I'm just thinking about closing the shop, so I'll go back with you to pick up the rest. "If it's not peaceful today, the old shopkeeper also knows that business is difficult to do, and if you sell one piece, you can sell one piece.

Ma Zongheng suddenly smiled, pointed to the other two rosewood boxes and said with a smile: "Shopkeeper, I also want to ask for the other two, but there are really not so many silver taels." When you see that I am sincere, you will make an offer, and if I can buy it, I will buy it. ”

When the old shopkeeper heard this, his eyes widened, and he shook his head and said, "Okay, little brother, you are quite shrewd." Can you ask where you're from? ”

"Fufeng Ma Xi."

"Fufeng? Last name Ma? Could it be that you are the little Fubo? ”

"Don't dare to be, Ma is exact."

"Hehe, looking at your body, it's different from ordinary people, and it's not an ordinary person. In fact, the old man just saw that you were quite polite, and you had no shelf, so he was willing to reduce the price again and again.
