Chapter 109: The Black Cloth Came from the Old Man
On a calm day, Xu Anping returned home after getting off duty, teased the greedy Huan'er, teased the arrogant Miss Deng, looked at Yi Lian'er, whose cheeks were dizzy at every turn, and felt that the current days were really pleasant. Still, he hadn't forgotten what he was supposed to do now.
Just after the hour, Xu Anping changed into a night suit and jumped out of the room from the window, and the courtyard was silent. He came to the outside of the women's room and listened carefully for a while, Yi Lian'er and Deng Xiaoke's breathing was steady, obviously already asleep. Only the ring that lived outside Deng Xiaoke's room tossed and turned, and from time to time smashed his mouth and muttered in a low voice.
Xu Anping smiled slightly in his heart, walked lightly to the courtyard wall, stepped on the ground a little hard, hooked the wall with both hands, and then his body had already turned out of the wall, and then rushed towards the west of the city. Half an hour later, he had come to the back door of a normal house, calmed his slightly disturbed breathing a little, and jumped over the wall and into the courtyard with a run. After careful identification, Xu Anping quietly approached the study room in the backyard that was still lit. Looking at the figure on the window paper, he hesitated slightly, and really didn't know if it would be a blessing or a curse to contact this seemingly loyal but actually treacherous right-hand man Yushi again. Thinking that this person knew everything about himself, and even mastered the secret of being born in Yujia Village and guarding the Deng family, he knocked on the window.
There was a low, vigilant shout from inside the room: "Who? sneaky in the middle of the night, it can be known that breaking into the official house in the middle of the night is the crime of robbing the house and killing the head! ”
Xu Anping retreated behind the pillars of the corridor and replied lightly: "Don't worry, Lord Sun! The kid came by appointment, but he really didn't expect that it would disturb the adult's reading Yaxing. ”
Sun Yongcheng in the house groaned slightly, opened the window and said, "Oh, it's you!" You're keeping me waiting. The door is not closed, you can come in and talk. ”
Xu Anping stood motionless and said directly: "Lord Sun is polite. The kid is used to all kinds of shady things, and he is really not suitable for being exposed to candlelight, please don't blame the adults. ”
"It's fine. How long have you been in Beijing? Looking for a place to stay? Sun Yongcheng looked at the pillars of the corridor, stroked his beard and asked in a concerned tone, like an elder asking about his son and nephew.
"There is Lord Lao's concern! The boy was delayed at home for a while because of some trivial matters, and he just came to the capital today to find an inn to live in. Xu Anping did not eliminate his vigilance against Sun Yongcheng, and his answer was also leaky, so that he could not find any traces at all. He was eager to join the spy department in order to have a clear identity, so as not to have problems because he relied too much on Sun Yongcheng. Accustomed to being a killer and an assassin, and seeing too many deceits, he really didn't dare to put his safety completely on someone.
"All the things in Yujia Village have been dealt with? Don't worry, I left a picture for Deng Yongming, as long as he doesn't commit adultery, no one will easily touch the Deng family. ”
After hearing this, Xu Anping's heart sank, and then he said gratefully: "Thank you, my lord!" The kid has already taken care of the affairs of the family and has no worries. The adult's many cares, the villain remembers it. This time, I came here to wait for the adults to send them, and the villain will live up to the trust. ”
Sun Yongcheng frowned slightly, then stretched out and said with a little pleasure: "That's fine, I don't have to make arrangements again." Next, every fifteenth and twenty-fifth day of the new year, you go to the Datong Hall on Chengxian Street to sit for a while. When the mute Xiaoer, who is in charge of renewing the tea, comes over, you will report the code of 'Shandong Old Man'. If I have something to do with you, he'll pass it on to you. If you want to contact me about something, you can also send a message through him. ”
Xu Anping thought about the approximate location of Chengxian Street, although it was not far away, it was not in the jurisdiction he was responsible for, but he still agreed. "Don't worry, the kid knows what to do."
Sun Yongcheng tapped his fingers lightly on the desk, and after a while, he said, "Recently, you have asked me about something, which people have been in contact with the Imperial History of the Imperial Court recently. ”
"Okay, the villain will be staring at him in the next few days."
"Then let's go back first. There is no need in the future, don't come to my house easily. After speaking, Sun Yongcheng stopped speaking and closed the window. After a few moments, he opened the window again and looked outside, only to make sure that no one was there, then closed it again, then blew out the candle and walked towards the bedroom.
At this time, Xu Anping emerged from behind the tree not far from the pillar in the corridor, and he saw Sun Yongcheng's actions just now, which verified what he thought. After a moment's thought, he hurried out of the backyard and turned out of the house.
Half an hour later, Xu Anping returned to his courtyard, and the girls in the room were still sleeping peacefully, and even Huan'er fell asleep. He quietly returned to his room, closed his eyes and pondered. Obviously, Sun Yongcheng, like himself, did not worry about each other, but had the mentality of using each other and taking care of each other. It was precisely because of this situation that he secretly made up his mind: it was better to find out the nails and roads that Sun Yongcheng had planted in advance, and if the situation changed, he would not hesitate to get rid of them. Thinking of this, he no longer hesitated, and fell asleep after a while.
The next morning, there was another knock on the door of Xu Anping's room.
Yi Lian'er stood delicately outside the door, as graceful as a weeping willow. "Brother Anping, it's time to get up. If you miss the hour, the superior will punish you. ”
Xu Anping pretended to be confused and laughed: "Lian'er, don't make trouble, let me sleep a little longer." My current Shangguan is the one who helped us in the restaurant that day, and the relationship is good, even if the time is missed, it will be fine. ”
Hearing him say this, Yi Lian'er became even more anxious, and hurriedly patted the door and said, "No! Brother Anping, get up quickly. If you don't get up again, I won't make you anything to eat in the future. Hum! ”
"Okay, okay, I'll get up. Lian'er is becoming more and more like a housekeeper. You will also take care of Miss Deng in the future, and don't let her sleep like a pig every morning. So saying, he opened the door.
Yi Lian'er blushed and said with some annoyance: "You are not allowed to say that Sister Ke'er, she is very good." ”
Xu Anping said in surprise: "Lian'er, how did you get bought by her?" We're in this group. ”
After ridiculing Yi Lian'er and having a hearty breakfast, Xu Anping set off to Fusi Yingmao in Beizhen. Today, as a few days ago, I still went to inspect the area around the North Gate Bridge.
Seven or eight people were walking on the street near the North Gate Bridge, and Wu San'er was very angry. He pointed and said, "If you want me to say, our territory is still too small. If it was bigger, the white silver would definitely break our pockets. ”
Xu Anping said: "Wu Tou'er is right! It's not easy to live in this capital, so you still have to get more silver. I've walked around Fucheng Bridge and Dazhong Bridge before, and that's the bustling area. Wu Tou'er, can you talk to the hundred households, let's grab that piece of land. ”
Wu San'er shook his head and said, "Brother Xu, you don't understand." The piece you said is too far away from us to grab it. Even if you want to grab land, you have to go to Chengxian Street, Pearl River, and Xiaojiaochang. ”
Xu Anping immediately admitted his mistake, patted his ass and said: "Wu Tou'er taught a lesson! That's what I'm saying, and I don't know as much as you do. ”
Wu San'er didn't say anything happily, but the thoughts in his heart became stronger and stronger.
