Yesterday escorted the coffin out of the city, and Li Congqing and others returned to the city after noon today, and everyone saw that the Jinling city wall was still tall, and it looked even bigger under the sky.

"Master Chen, this king will go first. Driving-" Li Congqing rode his horse and began to gallop on a blue brick road at the gate of the city, splashing snow.

The soldiers of the forbidden army in the past saw that Li Congqing also acquiesced to him driving on the street, Chen Qiao lifted the curtain, saw Li Congqing like this, and didn't know whether he was happy or sad, he sighed, closed the curtain again, and then took out the military badge on the cuffs, and looked at it carefully, the word "Lin" on the military plate was still there, and it had not changed.

"Is this really the case with Lin Renzhao, the old man will go to the Privy Council first to see the latest military report." Chen Qiao muttered, he didn't believe that Lin Renzhao was such a person, but in the recent past, because he was busy with Li Yu's funeral, Chen Qiao temporarily handed over the stall to Li Congqing, the prison state.

Li Congqing took the lead and galloped down the street, scattering some of the people who were setting up stalls on the road, and when the people saw the galloping horses and the young man wearing a round-necked python robe, they knew his identity, and they only complained.

Li Congqing was going to the south of the city, he held his breath in his heart, and he planned to use the horse to dissipate the resentment in his heart, only to see that in the market in the south of the city, a young man wearing a round-necked python robe, galloping on a fast horse, the shops on the side were also trampled over, and the street was in a mess.

And across the street, a mule cart drove slowly on the street, the second egg on the mule cart pulled the curtain from time to time, looked around at the street scene on the side of the road, smelled the elixir liquor, fat powder cheesy floated out from all places, the second egg sometimes does not dream of these, but dreams of some strange things, and he feels that Jinling City is not so tall, the world in that dream seems to be more strange and majestic.

The coachman drove the mule cart, turned his head and pointed enthusiastically into the distance, and then said: "This little brother, there are many mortgage shops in front of him, and the most famous one is the Wu family's escort shop, is the little brother going there?" ”

"Well, that's it, thank you to the shopkeeper." Erdan didn't know the situation in Jinling City, but as long as there was a mortgage shop, whether it was the Wu clan's mortgage shop or any other mortgage shop, as long as these things were mortgaged.

The coachman drove the mule cart in that direction.

Finally arrived at Wu's escort shop, the coachman helped unload the things from the car, and Erdan was also very grateful, took out fifty copper coins from his pocket and handed it to the coachman.

"Little brother, you give too much, only twenty-five wen." The coachman pushed, wanting to return the remaining twenty-five wen to the young man.

"No, the shopkeeper has worked hard, and it is not easy for you to make a living by driving and transporting goods, and the family also needs money to enter the account. When you go out, the kid should give a way money, I wish you a prosperous business, a lot of money, and a lot of money. This will not be a while, and it will be troublesome for the shopkeeper to send these things to the Wu family's escort shop. Erdan said, and suddenly felt that he was talking a little crepe, and he smiled.

When the coachman heard this, he understood the young man's intentions and said, "Little brother, listen to your auspicious words, and I will make you a friend." ”

Erdan understood: "Thank you for the shopkeeper, I don't have many friends in Jinling City, as the saying goes, go out and rely on friends, I Erdan may have to bother the shopkeeper next time." ”

Ma Shunsan, the coachman, said while helping to carry these things: "What the little brother said, the next time you have something to find me, you will go to the Qianjin Yixiao Building in Qinhuai River, I help the hotel deliver wine and food every morning, and the place where I live is not far from there." ”

"A smile on the daughter?" Erdan listened to the coachman Ma Shunsan talk about this place, and said happily, "What a coincidence, I'll go to Qianjin Yixiao Building later, I don't know if the shopkeeper has time to piggyback all the way?" ”

The things have been moved, and the coachman Ma Shunsan listened: "Okay, little brother, let's go inside first, and I'll wait outside." ”

Erdan entered the Wu family's escort shop, the shopkeeper heard footsteps, so he raised his head and looked this person up and down, this young man was dressed in a brocade robe, sword eyebrows and starry eyes, but his body felt a little thin, he felt that this young man should also be a child of a family, so he said: "I don't know what this yaman wants to pledge?" Our martial arts shop is the first martial arts car dealership in Bazhou, Hedong in the Great Song Dynasty, Tong Su is not bullied, the price is fair, and the yamen can also rest assured. I am the Wu shopkeeper of this Wu family's mortgage shop. ”

Hearing the Wu shopkeeper call him Yanei, Erdan felt a little proud in his heart, and he said: "Wu shopkeeper, that's it, when we first came to Jinling, how could we suddenly have an accident, so we had to mortgage these things, I don't know what the price is?" Erdan pointed to a pile of goods on the ground.

"So much?" The shopkeeper Wu came out of the counter, and immediately bent down to untie the burden on the ground, only to see that it was basically full of clothes and so on. The shopkeeper Wu has been dealing with porcelain, jade, gold and silverware, silk and other things all year round, and he found that these things are not like those owned by ordinary people, like the children of the royal family.

"This?" The shopkeeper Wu smiled, he is not good at valuing these things, and he doesn't know who the young man in front of him is, but these things are not easy to transfer, "These are all used by the royal family, I don't know if there are any items on the Ya Nei to prove his identity?" ”

"Objects?" Erdan didn't know how to prove it, and then he remembered the jade pendant on his body, so he took it out of his pocket, "Shopkeeper Wu, do you think this is okay?" ”

The moment the shopkeeper saw the young man take out the jade pendant, his face changed, because he found that this thing was the jade pendant used by the royal family, and he immediately greeted him with a smile: "This Yanei, Xiao Di has eyes and does not know gold and jade, so I will give you money in exchange, if there is money in the Yanei, all these things will be returned to the original owner." Saying that, the shopkeeper turned around and went back to the counter, he felt that the young man in front of him was probably a conflict at home, or he went to the casino and lost money, and he pledged these things without money to spend, and these things can be hidden privately, if they are discovered, it will be overstepping.

Erdan looked at the shopkeeper Wu, and then looked at the jade pendant in his hand, and then withdrew it into his sleeve.

The Wu shopkeeper said that the servants of the Wu family took out almost eleven iron coins from the mortgage shop one after another, at this time the Southern Tang Dynasty was inflationary, and the iron money was cheap, basically all iron money, with one as ten, and one as five big iron money (mentioned earlier).

Looking at the eleven iron coins, Erdan's eyes lit up suddenly, so many iron coins were placed in front of him, and Erdan's first time he saw it, but the weight was really unclear, and it seemed that someone had to carry it.

Erdan only noticed the driver outside at this time, and he quickly called someone in to help carry it.

Ma Shunsan, the coachman, is also the first time to see so many iron coins, but he understands that although there are many iron coins, but copper coins are still expensive, if it were not for the defeat of the Tang Kingdom, the Great Zhou Kingdom and the Great Song Kingdom every year, this copper money would not be so scarce, and it seems that this copper money can only be seen in the Great Song Kingdom.

"Little brother, with so much iron money, aren't you afraid of thieves?" Ma Shunsan, the coachman, asked.

"Don't be afraid, let's buy a house in Jinling now, I don't know where the shopkeeper knows where the land price is cheap?"

The coachman Ma Shunsan thought about it and said: "This one of us only knows that the land price of the coffin shop and the coffin shop in the south of the city is cheap, but the place is unknown, strange and gloomy, and it is on a street not far from here." ”

Erdan said: "Thank you for the shopkeeper, let's go to the Qianjin Yixiao Building first, we still have someone waiting there." ”

Ma Shun, the coachman, said while moving: "That's right." When he had finished moving, he drew his whip and smashed it on the mule, and the mule cart started slowly, heading for the Qianjin Yixiao Building.

……

Inside the Qianjin Yixiao Building, Zhao Dezhao, Wang Wushan, Zhang Jiuyue, the black-clothed Tanhua and Wan Song were all listening to music in Fangcui Pavilion.

It's still a song that the daughter laughs at, but the person who sings it is replaced by Qin Wanlan. Zhao Dezhao knew that this Uncle Yang Che liked this Qin Xiaolan because she looked like Tanhua in black and Wan Song's biological mother Mei'er.

Zhao Dezhao naturally supports this kind of love, and hopes that the two can tie the knot and grow old.

Wang Wushan on the side occasionally turned her head and looked at Zhao Dezhao, but she didn't know why the young master kept smiling, and Sister Zhang Jiuyue beside her also kept smiling.

Wang Wushan patted Zhang Jiuyue on the shoulder and said timidly, "Sister, what are you laughing at?" ”

Zhang Jiuyue pursed her lips, approached the back of Wang Wushan's ear, and said them one by one.

"The young master is really bad, everything in this file has been done." Wang Wushan's face turned red all of a sudden.

Zhang Jiuyue said with a smile: "What's this, then Li Congqing is so bad that he is in the bones, he is simply a color embryo and a disciple, Brother Zhao is also doing this to avenge me, but it is really disgusting." ”

"Brother Zhao, why do you keep smiling?" The black-clothed Tanhua and Wan Song didn't understand why Zhao Dezhao had been secretly laughing along the way after he came back from outside the city.

After the black-clothed Tanhua and Wan Song understood, the two also laughed, and the whole room was full of laughter.

Zhao Dezhao was puzzled: "Sister, why do you look at me like this?" Is there anything on my face? ”

"Ah, nothing? Hehe. Zhang Jiuyue shook her head, what is this, just now she saw another person in a trance, but as soon as she looked up, she thought of the annoying Zhao Kuangmei in the capital again.

Wang Wushan also looked at this Zhao Dezhao and Zhang Jiuyue from the side, but she knew that the person Zhang Jiuyue liked was not the young master, so she timidly kept aside, turning her eyes to look at Zhao Dezhao.

At the door of the Qianjin Yixiao Building, the second egg has also arrived here, and the coachman Ma Shunsan is also waiting here.

"Brother Erdan, that's Brother Erdan." The second girl saw the second egg poking his head out of the mule cart and screamed.

When the villagers saw the second girl like this, they looked in that direction, and saw a young man in a brocade dress also looked over here, so the villagers walked up.

These people were hungry and had not eaten all day.

"Good news for everyone." Erdan lowered his voice, for fear of being heard by someone on the road, "We exchanged eleven taels of iron money, all in the car." Now let's go to the ready-to-wear shop to make some clothes, and the villagers will change their clothes first. ”

"Let's eat first, fill in the stomach and then go to the ready-to-wear store to buy some ready-to-wear clothes for everyone to change." The folks said.

"It's fine." Erdan paid the coachman Ma Shunsan a few iron coins, and asked where the ready-to-wear and shoe store was, and the coachman Ma Shunsan pointed to the vicinity of the Chenghuang Temple, where there are often markets and many shops.

The group ate some casually at the roadside food shop, and then rushed to the city god temple, and then asked the coachman Ma Shunsan about the situation in Jinling, and the coachman Ma Shunsan pointed out to them a tooth man, and that night, they finally arrived at their new home in the south of the city.

Although the house of this family is close to the shop of the underworld, it seems to be a little defeated, but it is better because the price is cheap, the location is secluded, and the field is large, which is enough to deal with these villagers.

Seeing that the place to live was found, Erdan and the villagers danced happily, and the coachman Ma Shunsan also helped buy some bedding, and in this way they settled down in Jinling City.

A lamp is like a bean, beating on the porcelain table, the villagers sit around the table and gobble up, no one speaks, they are all eating a table of dishes, and there is hope in life.

……

And in the Chengnan Immortal Instrument Shop, Li Congqing has been here for half a day after noon, he is here for the first time, and he is uninvited, and he just sent a horse pawn to report here in advance, the first time he saw this kind of place, Li Congqing just felt that the surroundings were a little gloomy, like the treacherous hell he dreamed of in his dreams when he was a child.

When Li Congqing came to the designated place, a young man in brocade came forward to greet him, and the two cautiously entered through the side door, for fear of being seen. This young man in brocade clothes was Yang Guang, and when he heard that Li Congqing had sent someone, he waited here according to Yang Che's wishes.

Li Congqing raised his head, saw the young man in brocade and said, "What about your honor?" ”

"Back to the prison country, my father is waiting in the secret room, please go here from the prison country."

"Oh, it turns out that you are the young master who is worried about ghosts."

"Exactly." Yang Guang replied respectfully on the surface, and his heart blossomed, he didn't know that this was a trap.

In the secret room, Yang Che put on a mask, his back was facing the door of the secret room, and the quiet candle flame illuminated half of the secret room, making the secret room look more and more eerie and terrifying.

As soon as Li Congqing entered the secret room, Yang Che asked Yang Guang to retreat, and then he turned his head and saw Li Congqing standing.

"I haven't seen you for a long time, and this king is here to ask for you."

"I don't know what's going on with the prison country?"

"This king came here because of the incident of Lin Renzhao in Runzhou, please help this king, and go to Runzhou to help this king kill Lin Renzhao." Li Congqing looked at Yang Che sincerely.

"I don't know what the price of the prison is?" Yang Che looked at Li Congqing and said in a long voice.

Li Congqing asked rhetorically: "This, does the Supreme want power or money?" ”

"We are all like that, money and power are the most tempting things in the world, what does King Qi think?"

"Since this is the case, this king understands, I don't know if His Excellency can complete the task."

Yang Che nodded.

At night, Li Congqing walked out of the mansion and lifted the whip, and the sound of horses' hooves was particularly loud in the dark night......
