The gentlemen of Wenyuan Pavilion only teach for half a day every day, and they can leave school just after noon. Because most of the gentlemen of Wenyuan Pavilion are serving in the DPRK and the Central Committee, they naturally have to take a holiday every political day, so the students of Wenyuan Pavilion go to rest for three days and two days, which can be described as three days of fishing and two days of drying nets.

Knowing this, Tang Xiao was suddenly refreshed and tired. After all, it's only two hours a day at most, and it's over to put the book on your head and sleep.

In Anle Wangfu, Wang Dahai was waiting in front of the door early. Seeing the carriage of the palace coming, he hurriedly greeted it. There is an incident today, and the prince must make a decision himself.

"Little prince, I just got the news from the county government of Chang'an County that the Li steward of Nanshan Grange is dead."

Hearing this, Tang Xiao frowned and asked, "What's the matter?" ”

"Early this morning, someone found the body of Steward Li in the red grass beach north of the grange, and reported it to the Chang'an County Ya. The second hammer rushed to investigate before the people from the yamen went, and the deceased person was indeed Steward Li, who was stabbed in the heart and died on the spot. Judging from the traces at the scene, it is the scene of the crime. ”

"What do the people of the Yamen say?" Tang Xiao walked into the mansion with a calm face.

"Originally, it was suspected that the mob in the Grange was murderous, but Su Gongzi came forward to prove that the county government would not involve the people in the Grange. I heard that some catchers have found new clues, and they are still continuing to pursue them. ”

Hearing this, Tang Xiao sneered and said, "What is there to investigate, it is nothing more than Tang Su killing people and planting blame." Since this matter is not planted on our heads, it will definitely not be resolved. You let people look it up secretly, and I don't think it's that simple. ”

"The old slave understands." Wang Dahai said, took out a letter from his bosom and handed it to Tang Xiao: "Commander Qin's letter just came in the morning, the coffins of the prince and the princess will arrive at the imperial tomb in three days." ”

Tang Xiao opened the envelope, and Qin Hu talked about the situation along the way in the letter, as well as the condolences and longings. There are only a few words on the last page, 'Read more, listen more, endure more'. Tang Xiao recognized that this was Mr. Zhang's handwriting, and for a while he seemed to have eaten a reassuring pill.

Back then, Qin Hu and Mr. Zhang came to Anle Wangfu together, one became the chief of the palace guard, and the other became Tang Xiao's master. Qin Hu is the righteous son of Mr. Zhang, so he has a good relationship with Tang Xiao.

Now that he knows that Mr. Zhang and Qin Hu are still in contact, Tang Xiao is finally a little relieved.

The afternoon sun is warm, and this kind of weather is always cherished for a cold winter.

Tang Xiao originally planned to wander around the city, but before he could leave the mansion, Yu Chi Baoqi took He Ruoying to look for him.

Yu Chi Baoqi is idle at home, and he doesn't do the errands arranged by the family, but he is quite interested in business in the past two years. He owned a leather shop in the West Market and made a lot of money.

"Brother worry-free, my brother has come to see you again!"

Before the people could come in, the broken gong began to shout. Tang Xiao reluctantly invited the two into the study and told the pothos to make a pot of tea.

Yu Chi Baoqi stopped the green pothos and said to Tang Xiao: "Don't be busy, we came here to ask you out." ”

"That's a coincidence, I was just thinking about going out for a walk."

"I'll take you to a good place in a moment!" Yu Chi Baoqi stretched out his head in a shy, and whispered: "There is a new batch of orchids from the Western Regions in the slave shop over there, who can sing and dance well and have a graceful posture, my brother will take you to pick a few." ”

Although the world is peaceful, there will still be poor families who sell their sons and daughters. Tang Xiao has always been very disgusted with those people, and when he heard Yu Chi Baoqi mention the slave workshop, he couldn't help but be a little resistant.

"Forget it, I'll still walk around."

"Tang Wuwu, are we brothers? Brother saw that there were few people in your house, and kindly asked someone to leave you a few excellent ones, you can't go and not go to see it! Let's go, if it's too late, those tooth people won't be waiting for us. ”

Yu Chi Baoqi was so good that Tang Xiao nodded and agreed, and the three of them rode all the way to Xishi.

There are more Hu merchants in the west market than in the east market, and they are mainly engaged in fur and jewelry business. The three of them had a clear goal and went directly to the slave workshop.

From afar, looking at the rows of slaves in shabby single clothes standing on the high platform, shivering in the cold wind with their heads bowed, Tang Xiao felt uncomfortable in his heart. He reluctantly followed behind Yu Chi Baoqi and finally arrived at the place.

The main sellers of this slave business are orchids, and the customers are all famous and powerful. The tooth man saw Yu Chi Baoqi coming towards this side from a distance, and hurriedly greeted him.

"Second master, you can count it. If you come a little later, the villain will not be able to withstand it. ”

Hearing this, Yu Chi Baoqi asked, "Is there someone who doesn't have long eyes and I rob people with the second master?" ”

The tooth man nodded and said, "It's a handsome boy with a brocade robe and a white face, and that face is three points more beautiful than a woman's." The villain just persuaded him to wait, and two teeth were knocked out. ”

As he spoke, the tooth man deliberately opened his mouth to show the two of them, and it was indeed missing two teeth.

"The villain has grown so big, I have never seen such a fierce person, and even the guards around him are as vicious as wolves."

Yu Chi Baoqi shook his hand impatiently, threw a piece of broken silver to the tooth man, and said, "Take us over!" ”

The tooth man led the way in front, and pointed to a young man in black from a distance, and said, "Second master, it's him!" ”

Tang Xiao and Yu Chi Baoqi looked in the direction of their fingers, and could only see a side face. The boy was accompanied by three guards, dressed in soft armor and wearing long swords at their waists.

After about dozens of steps, Yu Chi Baoqi walked up to the young man and asked with some annoyance: "Are you going to rob my fancy orchid?" ”

The young man turned his head, and Tang Xiao on the side happened to see his face, and sighed secretly: What a handsome young man!

The height of this young man is only as high as Tang Xiao's earlobe, although this face is a little more refined, but it shows a bit of fortitude and murderous atmosphere. If you look closely, you can even see a few shallow scars. A black robe is like ink dyeing, and the top of his hair is a jade crown of mutton fat and blood, which is not ordinary at first glance.

The three guards around the boy were rugged-looking, one had a scar in the corner of his eye, one had a broken finger, and the last one was a bearded man.

Tang Xiao frowned, these three servants and one master all had a strong murderous aura on their bodies.

Could it be that they have been on the battlefield?

"You just arrived, why did I rob you?" The boy's voice was hoarse, mixed with a hint of coldness.

"These orchids were ordered by me beforehand, so they are mine."

"Hehe, that's ridiculous!" The young man sneered and said, "Everyone in the world knows that when you buy something, you have to pay for it with one hand, and deliver it with one hand. You said that you ordered these orchids, so did you pay for them? ”

Seeing that Yu Chi Baoqi was glaring angrily, Tang Xiao hurriedly stopped him, arched his hand at the black-clothed young man, and said, "This son, although my brother is a little reckless, these orchids are indeed predetermined by him. ”

"What are you talking so much nonsense with him!" As he spoke, Yu Chi Baoqi stepped forward and stretched out his hand to grab the young man's collar.

Seeing this, the scar guard beside the young man suddenly drew his sword and stabbed at Yu Chi Baoqi, Tang Xiao hurriedly pulled it, and then dodged the sword.

Yu Chi Baoqi, who was scared into a cold sweat, suddenly said angrily: "Do you want to fucking die!" ”

The young man in black looked at him coldly for a long time......
