"Imperial relatives, what a big deal." Lu Siniang praised.

Lu Siniang asked with some curiosity: "Imperial relatives, what are you doing in Luoyang?" ”

Ye Sheng shook his head, he was not a god operator. Just instructed, "Be careful with these two people." ”

"Huh?" Lu Siniang was puzzled.

Ye Sheng stared at her face for a long time and said, "Zhao Qing is a womanizer, but I believe you can handle it." But that Cao Lian... You'd better be careful. ”

Lu Siniang nodded disapprovingly: "That girl looks pretty cute?" ”

A trace of inexplicability flashed in Ye Sheng's eyes, and he said lightly: "She's jealous, but... But I'm not jealous of you. ”

Lu Siniang blinked, "This girl looks like a fairy, and it is normal for a mortal to be jealous." Isn't she jealous of me? That's jealousy of someone who looks like me or is as beautiful. She's not going to be perverted. ”

Ye Sheng looked at her and didn't speak, but his eyes revealed the meaning of "exactly".

Lu Siniang couldn't help but smack her tongue, "I thought I was already abnormal, but now I know... At least I'm mentally sound. How miserable this girl was to be so psychologically distorted. ”

Ye Sheng said: "In short, you should be careful. She is the only concubine of the Cao family, and the power behind her should not be underestimated. ”

Lu Siniang was quite worried, "What if that girl falls into my hands?" ”

"If you can leave no flaws, you are free." Ye Sheng said, "But... The current head of the Cao family is a member of the Yang family, and she is very good at anger. ”

So, even if you don't leave a flaw, she will still get you in trouble as long as she thinks it has something to do with you.

Lu Siniang was depressed, held her chin and sighed: "So, when this girl used to watch TV, she hated the nobles who bullied people the most." ”

Ye Sheng was indifferent, Lu Siniang turned her head sideways and skimmed her, "Don't you have anything to say?" ”

Ye Sheng said: "One day, when you trample all your so-called nobles under your feet, you will find it interesting." ”

Lu Siniang rolled her eyes and said, "That's just to make you a new nobleman, right?" ”

Ye Sheng raised his eyes to look at her, and showed a sincere smile in an extremely rare way, "Life in the world is to fight, to fight with the sky, with the earth, and with people."

Two days later, the group arrived at Yanshi and stayed in a rather quiet inn in Yanshi City. Ye Sheng soon found out that they were also staying with the pair of cousins who came up later. If people want to follow, Ye Sheng and Lu Siniang naturally can't say that they are not allowed to follow, and after arriving at the inn, they go directly into the room to freshen up and rest.

Just after resting, someone knocked on the door. Lu Siniang went over and opened the door, and saw the brother and sister standing at the door looking at her with a smile.

"Miss Lu." Cao Lian greeted with a smile.

Lu Siniang frowned, "Is there anything wrong with the two of you?" ”

Cao Lian smiled: "Sister Lu is the first time to come to Yanshi, I don't know, there is a temple fair in Yanshi Yanhuakou tonight." Let's go and have some fun together. ”

Lu Siniang looked at the brother and sister with an enthusiastic look in front of her speechlessly. Where did these two see that they were so easy to deceive?

Shaking her head, Lu Siniang said with a little regret: "After a few days of traveling, we are all a little tired, I am afraid that we will have to refuse the kindness of the two." ”

Zhao Qing said with a smile: "The temple fair is not far from the inn, is it rare that Mrs. Lu really doesn't go out to have a look?" The last words were low and slightly elongated, and there was some ambiguous smile in her eyes when she looked at Lu Siniang. Lu Siniang had to admit that this product was really **her.

Taking a step back, Lu Siniang shook her head with a smile and refused.

"Sister Lu, don't do this." Cao Lianjiao laughed and said, "It's fate that we can meet, I'm so bored alone, let's go together for the sake of my face." ”

Lu Siniang was about to shake her head, and Ye Sheng's voice came from inside, "Siniang." ”

Lu Siniang smiled apologetically at the two and said, "The two of you have a good time, we still have something to do." Then he closed the door in front of the two of them. The brothers and sisters who were locked out of the door suddenly turned gloomy, looked at each other, and turned to leave. Cao Lian gritted her teeth in a low voice and said, "Don't be ashamed!" ”

Zhao Qing was better, and said with a smile: "The woman in the boudoir is inevitably more shy." What's the hurry? It's the scholar... It's an eyesore. ”

Cao Lian remembered what happened in the town inn a few days ago, and her face was full of disgust, "It's really an eyesore!" Second brother, what do you want to do? ”

Zhao Qing said with a smile: "A woman marries her husband, if that scholar is gone, then the beauty is not allowed to do whatever we want?" ”

Cao Lian looked at the ugly desire on his face that couldn't be concealed, and he only felt a little disgusting in his heart. But when she thought of Lu Siniang's beautiful face, she thought of a woman who made her even more disgusted. The disgusting feeling also became bearable, and he gritted his teeth and said, "I want that woman's face!" As he spoke, he saw two men staring at them at the door.

After dinner, Lu Siniang still stayed in the inn to rest, but Ye Sheng took Yang Zhi out. Lu Siniang knew that he had something to do, so she didn't ask much. They are only a cooperative relationship now, Ye Sheng will not tell her everything, and she will not tell Ye Sheng all her secrets. Keep a certain distance and space in order to cooperate happily?

Ye Sheng took Yang Zhi out of the inn and blended into the bustling crowd on the street. The Zhao Qing brothers and sisters did not lie, in fact, there have been temple fairs in Yanshi City in the past few days, and there will be a curfew at night until the end of the night. Walking through the flow of people, Ye Sheng watched the crowds on both sides of the street and coming and going as he walked. Yang Zhi followed him and said in a low voice, "Childe, someone is following us." ”

Ye Sheng frowned slightly, paused slightly under his feet but did not look back.

Yang Zhi is also a little strange, they don't have any enemies in Yanshi, even if they are from the Shen family, it is impossible to do it so quickly, at least they have to talk about it after they leave Yanshi, right?

Ye Sheng pondered for a moment and said, "Don't worry, I probably know who it is." ”

Yang Zhi looked at Ye Sheng's expression, couldn't help but didn't ask, Gongzi was obviously just a township test for a few days, and he followed every day, when did he offend people? So much so that as soon as they arrived at Yanshi, they were followed.

The master and servant walked and stopped, and unconsciously walked to a sparsely populated place. As soon as I turned into an alley, several people surrounded me.

Yang Zhi protected Ye Sheng behind him and said in a deep voice, "What do you want to do?" ”

The leader sneered and said, "What are you doing?" Naturally, it will kill you! ”

Yang Zhidao: "Our young master shouldn't have any sins, right?" ”

The leader said: "It is true that you did not offend us, but it is a pity that you have offended people who cannot be offended." Someone asks for your life for a thousand taels, and when you get to the palace of Hades, don't make a mistake in the account. ”

There is nothing to talk about, Yang Zhi turned around and whispered: "Childe, be careful." ”

Ye Sheng shook his head and raised his hand to look at a few people: "Now that the Cao Gang has started the business of killing people and stealing goods?" ”

The few men on the opposite side were shocked in their hearts, and looked at Ye Sheng, who was standing behind Yang Zhi, and said, "You, a scholar, can still see that we are members of the Cao Gang, but you have a little bit of a look." ”

Ye Sheng said indifferently: "Zhao Qing is not familiar with Yanshi's life when he first arrives, so he can't find anyone else except for you, right?" ”

There was silence on the other side, and this young scholar not only knew their identities, but even the people who instructed them behind the scenes. After a moment of silence, the leading man said, "Since you all know, then don't blame us for being ruthless." If you want to blame it, blame the person you offended. ”

Ye Sheng said: "I advise you to think carefully before you start, I want to see Zhao Jingang." ”

This time, these people were completely stunned, and the man led by him asked sharply, "Who are you?!" ”

Ye Sheng lowered his eyes and said: "It doesn't matter who I am, go back and ask Zhao Jingang, if the people in Caokou were not clean last time they were purged by the imperial court, do you need to come a few more times."

The silent confrontation between the two sides in the dark and secluded alley made the atmosphere more gloomy and solemn.

The messenger came back quickly, followed by a man who seemed to be in charge. The man looked at Ye Sheng, and a hint of surprise flashed in his eyes. Obviously, I didn't expect such a bold person to be a young scholar who didn't seem to be as weak as the crown. After hesitating for a moment, he still arched his hand and said: "Zhao Tianli, the manager of the Yanshi Branch in Xiacaokou, what is this son's name?" ”

"Well said, Ye Sheng." Ye Sheng said lightly.

Wei Zhan Guo said: "Our son-in-law invited Mr. Ye to meet, I don't know if Mr. Ye has the guts?" ”

Ye Sheng had no joy or anger on his face, but said, "Please lead the way." ”

"Oh? Please! Wei Zhan Guo looked at the young man in front of him a little more. No matter what their ability is, this courage is enough to make those of them who are mixed with rivers and lakes respect a little.

"Childe." Yang Zhi glanced at the few people opposite vigilantly and said in a low voice.

Ye Sheng nodded slightly and said, "Don't worry. ”

Yang Zhi felt a little bitter in his heart, he didn't know how the son who had only been to Yanshi once knew that there was a man named Zhao Jingang in Caokou who was now in Yanshi, but he knew that Caokou's predecessor was surnamed Zhao. Of course, it doesn't matter, the most important thing is that he wants to know if Childe knows what Caokou is like.

Caokou is actually not a gang, at least not all. In the early years of Caokou's meeting, it was just a group of boatmen who drank on the Universiade, and the Zhao family accumulated several generations of family business and gradually became bigger, and later formed an alliance with the eight boatmen's organizations that also begged for a living on the Beijing-Hangzhou Grand Canal to form the Caokou Gang. Then in the hands of the previous generation of Yun family masters, it was integrated and developed, and renamed Caokou. Now this Caokou is already a very powerful business organization in the Great Song Dynasty and even the Liao State, although it may not be as good as the princes in terms of family business, but it will not be too bad in terms of power. And it is inevitable to deal with some rivers and lakes recklessly to make a living outside, and Caokou usually prefers to the development of the people, unlike some chambers of commerce that are bent on high-level development. Therefore, Caokou's reputation in Shangyong is not obvious, but its reputation among the people is even more prominent.

Yang Zhijin had a very turbulent life in the first two or three years of the Canal Company, and naturally he knew what a terrible behemoth Caokou was to ordinary people. Although he didn't know anything deeper, he knew that if Caokou's people were really determined to kill them, no matter how much Gongzi could strategize, it would be in vain. Sometimes, even if you have a thousand calculations, you can't match a huge fist.
