Chapter 379 The Return of the Divine Stick
Cao's Mansion is in the third courtyard of the West City Bureau, and the first courtyard is already wearing red at the moment.
In fact, marrying a concubine is very simple, there is no need to be so extravagant, just open a corner door, take the newcomer in, and when you get to the back house, you can toast a cup of tea to the lady of the main room and the sisters, and you can go back to the room to wash your white, and wait for the eldest lord to be lucky.
However, Cao Weituo took the opportunity to receive gifts to collect money, and he had to put on a costume in that scene, otherwise the purpose of receiving gifts would inevitably seem too straightforward.
Therefore, Mr. and Mrs. Fifth looked from the upper floor of the return inn opposite, and they were secretly happy. feels that although his daughter is a concubine, the man attaches enough importance to it, so that his daughter will definitely not be able to suffer a loss after passing the door, and his wife can also follow his daughter to get some benefits.
Cao Weituo had already heard from the big account room about meeting the fifth Ling Ruo on the road and intercepting her back. Cao Weituo felt unhappy in his heart, and at this time he realized that the man who was worthy of the fifth Ling Ruo's brother and sister was not her brother-in-law.
However, when he thought of the man's injury, Cao Weituo relieved his heart, who was so seriously injured, and who had the leisure and elegance to fold flowers and pick stamens, then he would admit it.
Besides, Mayor Cao's ability is not great, but the ability of a woman is very good, and he is also the fifth Ling Ruo's green hair, which is not as smooth and shiny as a woman who has experienced clouds and rain and has smooth blood. I saw that the root of her eyebrows was not messy, soft and close to her eyebrow bone, her black pupils were as clear as water, her chin was flushed with a faint flush near her neck, and when she helped "her brother" to leave, her waist. The buttocks shake and twist each other, lacking the charm of the style, and there is no doubt that it is a virgin.
When I thought about it, I didn't have a seizure. Fifth, if there is anyone in Ling Ruo's heart, he doesn't care, all he wants is a beautiful skin.
In this room, Cao Weituo is still arranging the afternoon banquet step by step.
In fact, to say that Cao Weituo is full of only women, that is also wronged him.
Outsiders only said that he took a concubine this time, in addition to being lustful, it was to collect money. In fact, Cao Weituo also has other plans.
He has only been on the throne of the king of Xishi for only one year, and his position is far from stable. If he works hard after succeeding to the throne and takes care of the West Market day by day, this position will naturally be stabilized.
Especially recently, he offended the big backer Feng Deyi completely, and the business of the West Market was greatly affected, the four beams, eight pillars and sixteen trusses, mixed with him, and followed him to bring down the previous King of the West Market, because the previous King of the West City was profligate and ate meat by himself, and the younger brothers couldn't even drink enough soup.
As a result, after Cao Weituo took office, everyone in Xishi was Wang Xiaoer's New Year, and every year was not as good as a year. In the past, the king of Xishi himself could still eat and drink spicy food, and the scenery was extremely beautiful, but now it is good, Cao Weituo's own life is also a good food, and he is very unhappy.
It has long been rumored that Cao Weituo has even greatly reduced the monthly consumption of the first twelve golden hairpins in his back house, which shows that he is embarrassed. Cao Weituo wanted to use the matter of concubines to handle it well, eliminate the influence of some rumors outside, and stabilize his prestige and status in front of his subordinates.
Returning to the inn at the door, Li Yu stopped the car and walked in.
At this time, the war has subsided, most of the guests who originally ran into the inn to avoid trouble left, and Chang'an has just calmed, and the various places have not yet received accurate news, and there are no new guests to come to Chang'an, so the inn is very quiet.
As soon as Li Yu came in, six or seven guys were eyeing him.
No way, usually the guys are so busy that they hit the back of their heads, just these days are quiet, the shopkeeper is not good, this is not good, everyone is very bored, and a guest comes in by chance, and it is natural to pay attention.
Just a look at Li Yu, when he came out of the East Palace, in order to hide his identity, he changed the clothes of the people under him, and he was subjected to a night of autumn rain, his wet robe was wrinkled, and he was not a rich man at first glance, and he wanted to get a reward from him, so a few guys turned their heads again.
Only two guys who were usually in charge of the lobby greeted them and asked impatiently. The two men listened to him looking for someone from the fifth family, and said that some poor relative of the fifth family had come to the autumn wind, and they went to invite Mr. and Mrs. Fifth out with disgust.
As soon as the two of them heard that the person in front of them was Yang Bing, and then saw him dressed like this, they decided that whatever was reused by the prince was their daughter boasting about him, and they immediately drank him and ordered him to leave. Li Yu couldn't see how the fifth Ling Ruo was willing to go, so he reasoned about it in two times, and the guys in the store rushed in and beat Li Yu out.
Li Yu left the return inn and avoided an alley, avoiding the eyes of those guys, secretly feeling that it was not good. The purpose of making such a fuss in the shop was to lure Fifth Ling Ruo out, so that he could understand her current situation, especially to confirm her intentions.
If Fifth Ling Ruo wanted to enter the Cao family's door, then he would be redundant to be this wicked person. But from beginning to end, the fifth Ling Ruo did not appear. If Fifth Ling is not this kind of person, and he has no commitments and obligations to himself, why don't he dare to meet? You can't see each other!
Ling Ruo should have been put under house arrest by her parents.
Li Yu squatted under the base of the wall and secretly gritted his teeth: since this is the case, then he can't abandon Ling Ruo. No matter how tightly guarded the return inn was, he must find a way to sneak in and take Ling Ruo out before she could pass the door.
"Squeak~~"
A dark and mottled back corner door next to it opened, and Li Yu turned his head to take a look.
A bamboo pole poked out of the door, and then a foot stepped out.
"Click......
The bamboo pole lightly touched the ground, and an elderly blind man wearing a round-necked robe and his eyes turned white walked out of it, with a blanket on his shoulders and a banner in his other hand.
"Ahem! There's someone here! ”
Li Yu saw the bamboo pole snapping towards him, so he coughed lightly.
The blind man was startled and said, "Ouch, there are still people here, don't be here for convenience." ”
Li Yu said: "It's not convenient, I'm thinking about things here." ”
Li Yu said, stood up, and made way for the old man.
Who expected the old man not to leave, smiling, and baring out a mouthful of yellow teeth: "Something on your mind?" Have you encountered some dilemma? Why don't you talk to the old man? Old decrepit divination and fortune telling, a hexagram only costs five pennies, for you to solve problems, guidance and maze! ”
The old man held the banner in his arms, smiling and stroking his beard, looking like a worldly master, but describing the dress as too shabby, with no form, not his spirit.
Li Yu smiled bitterly, waved his hand, and suddenly realized that the other party couldn't see, and was about to open his mouth to let him leave, when suddenly his heart moved, and he glanced up and down a few more times at the blind old man, and a pair of eyes gradually brightened......
……
Jia Shiqiao Xiangrong, Wang Hengjiu, the first person under the sixteen trusses, Chang Jiannan, asked for a private room at the return inn, and at this time they came to the door together and drank here.
The Return Inn was Cao Weituo's private property at this time, but Qiao Xiangrong discussed important matters and chose this place.
Because the three of them are in the West Market, many people recognize that if they find a separate hotel and drink together, it will be eye-catching.
And the return inn is Cao Weituo's industry, his subordinates eat and drink here, no matter how greedy he is, he is embarrassed to make their money, so his own people eat and drink here, usually only at cost price. Cao Weituo comforted himself painfully, feeling that it could be regarded as adding popularity to his industry.
Therefore, all the banquets and drinks in Pingsuri City are chosen here. Therefore, it is common to choose here, and it will not arouse doubts.
Chang Jiannan and Qiao Xiangrong are not very familiar with each other, but they are familiar with Wang Hengjiu, who is good at dancing with long sleeves, exquisite on all sides, and always treats people with a harmonious atmosphere, so this invitation, it was Qiao Xiangrong who invited Wang Hengjiu, and Wang Hengjiu brought him again.
The three of them asked for a private room on the second floor, which can also be used as a guest room, divided into an outer room and an inner room. The three of them set up a banquet inside, and after retiring the little two who were waiting, they no longer had to worry about being heard, because there was a long street on one side of the window, and a hall on the other side.
After three rounds of drinking, Qiao Xiangrong and Wang Hengjiu sighed and talked about the current predicament of the West Market, and complained about Cao Weituo's incompetence.
Chang Jiannan is not as straightforward as he seems on the outside, the two of them invite each other for no reason, he has been careful, and then listen to them criticize Cao Weituo at this moment, he is a new outsider, and he has not been fully recognized by the people in the West Market so far, so it is naturally inconvenient to speak, so he just didn't hear the meaning of the two of them, and just drank a big drink.
Qiao Xiangrong and Wang Hengjiu have already discussed, Qiao Xiangrong is not a master who is willing to live under others for a long time, and Wang Hengjiu is also ambitious. These are two middle-aged people who are not at ease, but they have never had the opportunity to get on the throne, and now they are middle-aged, and they have reached the most crisis and urgency, so the two hit it off.
Seeing that this military man was really honest and cute, and really thought that the two of them were very bored, and just invited him to have a drink, Qiao Xiangrong and Wang Hengjiu couldn't help but laugh a little.
The two glanced at each other, and Qiao Xiangrong coughed lightly and said, "Hey, with such a boss, Brother Hengjiu and I have no ambitions, and there is no way to talk about it, but it's a pity that you Brother Chang." ”
Chang Jiannan just poured a glass of wine into his stomach, and said dumbfounded: "What is a pity for me?" ”
"You ......", Qiao Xiangrong stopped talking, smiled, and lowered his head to sip wine.
Wang Hengjiu cooperated with him seamlessly, Chang Jiannan wanted to ask, but Wang Hengjiu was held back: "You have been here for a while, you should know that my West City has four beams, eight pillars and sixteen trusses." ”
Chang Jiannan was stunned and said, "You know, what?" ”
Qiao Xiangrong coughed and said, "What about the eight pillars, divide the force." In the first pillar of these eight pillars, there are less than 100 people who are really available under him, and there is intrigue between the eight pillars, and there is a plate of scattered sand. There are 300 elites under your command, all of whom are from the army, and they are in a group, so to speak, you have this power in your hands, and one person is enough to withstand their eight pillars. ”
Chang Jian Nanqian smiled: "Don't dare, don't dare, Brother Rong has won the award!" ”
Wang Hengjiu sneered and said, "Do you really think Brother Qiao is praising you?" You have such a large force, how can I settle you in Xishi? The Eight Pillars are very jealous of you. And they are the henchmen who support Boss Cao, what do you think Boss Cao should think of you? ”
"No......"
Chang Jiannan's face changed a little.
Qiao Xiangrong and Wang Hengjiu are certainly ambitious, and because they know that Feng Deyi, a big man, has abandoned Cao Weituo and has the idea of replacing him, the problem is that Xiucai rebelled and failed in three years. They don't have soldiers, as for the eight pillars, they are already high, and they are really against Cao Weituo, once it is done, it will not be their turn to take the position, at most they will be a big account.
However, at this time, there was Chang Jiannan, who was obviously very strong, but was not in the power structure of Xishi, and there was no free place for him. The two discussed and concluded that only if Chang Jian Nanken was used by them, they could achieve great things.
Moreover, these two hard-working people did not look down on the reckless martial artist in their hearts, and felt that Chang Jiannan could not only become their right-hand man, but also enough to be controlled by the two of them, so they both went out to convince this reckless man.
However, what the two said was not out of nowhere. Chang Jiannan already had this feeling, he humbled his wings in front of Cao Weituo, what he was afraid of was to arouse Cao Weituo's jealousy, and then listening to Qiao Xiangrong and Wang Hengjiu at this moment, could it be that Boss Cao had already moved the idea of driving him out?
He left the army in a fit of anger because all the forces of the three ladies were absorbed by the firewood and horses, if he was driven away, where would he go to eat with these three hundred robes?
Qiao Xiangrong saw that his face changed, smiled faintly, and said, "The problem is, if it just bombards you away, that's it." The Eight Pillars of Partial Life covet the power you have, and want to divide it up and keep it for yourself. ”
Wang Hengjiu said: "But these three hundred soldiers, only you are the first to look forward." If you don't die, how will they divide up these three hundred warriors? ”
Chang Jiannan's face changed again, and the wine glass in his hand suddenly clenched.
Qiao Xiangrong and Wang Hengjiu saw the changes in his eyes, and secretly rejoiced, only to feel that if this dose of fierce medicine continued, something could be expected.
"Click......
A rag shirt, a pathfinder stick, a banner full of vicissitudes on the side, and four big characters on it: "Cloth clothes and gods!" ”
Li Yu rolled his eyes, the beard under his chin trembled, and when Chang Jiannan's heart sank, he groped his way into the door of the return inn.
