Chapter 50: Beauty Like Jade
With the moon rabbit rising into the sky, the lights of thousands of homes were lit up, although there was no neon light flashing in the previous life, but the red lights were also lit in front of the doors of every house on both sides of the street, and the lights illuminated the entire city for a while.
"It seems that Lord Su came back this time, and the impact is really not small!" Seeing that there were all kinds of sedan chairs parked in front of the Su Mansion, Zhao Xun couldn't help but sigh with emotion. When Zhao Xun and Steward Su rushed back to Su Mansion, it was already dark, and then they saw such a scene.
"Yes! There are so many people who come to visit there! Steward Su also shook his head and sighed.
"Lord Zhao! Lord Zhao! A rough voice sounded from Zhao Xun's side.
Zhao Xun looked sideways, it was a rough man of thirty-five or sixteen, calling himself with a little flattering smile. But Zhao Xun didn't know him.
"Lord Zhao must not know this adult, this is the martial arts chief who is in the same camp as you. After the assassination of the master, he never came to our house! With a hint of sarcasm, Steward Su introduced to Zhao Xun.
Zhao Xun knew as soon as he heard it, this guy was Su Yun's subordinate, after Su Yun's assassination, he was far away, and he had the meaning of leaning towards Sima Yun, no wonder Steward Su didn't have a good face for him. However, Zhao Xun still understands him, after all, he is a backer, and turning one is also a way to protect himself. Besides, he didn't betray Su Yun directly.
Wu Tong sneered and said: "I am a rough man, I have offended a lot before, don't blame Steward Su, this is a little bit of heart in the next, please forgive Steward Su for your mistakes." Saying that, he handed Steward Su a cash cabinet ticket number, Zhao Xun swept it over, and saw that it was five thousand taels, and couldn't help but be surprised by Wutong's handwriting.
"I also bother Lord Zhao to say a few kind words for me in front of Lord Su, a small meaning, not a tribute!" He also handed Zhao Xun a ticket number, which was similar to the silver ticket of the Ming and Qing dynasties, some were taken according to their identity, and some were taken directly. And what was given to the two of them was to take the silver directly according to the ticket number.
Zhao Xun doesn't have a lot of money, he naturally has to take the things he has, besides, this Wutong is the person he and Su Yun need to woo, and he has to say good things if he doesn't give silver, he can get silver for nothing, don't want it in vain.
Seeing that Zhao Xun took the silver, Steward Su did not refuse, so he put away the impatient look on his face, and said with a faint smile: "Since Master Wu has said so, I don't care about the past." Lord Wu, please! ”
"Steward Su, Lord Zhao, please!"
"Look, the guy who beat Sima Qi and didn't take Lord Duwei in his eyes has arrived!" Seeing Zhao Xun enter the hall, people from all walks of life who were originally communicating with each other were stunned, and then someone whispered.
"Yes, a young man who looks quite quiet, not as vicious as you say, I won't admit my mistake." Some people are a little unconvinced.
"That's right, it's him, I was in a nearby restaurant at the time, I saw it with my own eyes, and I will never admit it."
Zhao Xun heard these people's discussions, smiled wryly and touched his nose, but he didn't care.
"Lord Zhao, the master is waiting for you in the study, let's go over first, as for these people's discussions, adults don't have to pay attention to them at all." Steward Su said to Zhao Xun with a smile.
As soon as Zhao Xun entered Su Yun's study, in addition to seeing a room full of books and calligraphy and paintings, what made people's eyes shine was that two girls who looked no more than seventeen years old, with ice muscles and jade bones, thin eyebrows like a touch of green daisy in the distant mountains, picked out a moving arc, starry eyes, and a crystal clear face with a faint flush. One of them with a slightly yellow complexion is Li Ruolan whom Zhao Xun knows, and although the other is unknown, Zhao Xun guesses that it is Su Yun's daughter. There is also a woman who looks like she is in her thirties beside Su Yun, who should be Su Yun's wife.
Seeing Zhao Xun coming in and seeing the two girls, he was slightly stunned, and then his face was not different, and he couldn't help but glance at Zhao Xun again.
"Come, Zhao Xun, let me introduce it to you, compared to you, you also know, this one doesn't need me to explain, you know, she is Li Ruolan who came with you, and now she changes back to women's clothes, is it a little surprised."
Zhao Xun smiled: "It's really a little surprised, it's very different from before!" ”
Su Yun smiled slightly: "Li Ruolan's side is my daughter, Su Ran, and you helped to get out of trouble today." Come, Ran'er, come here, I wrote about Brother Zhao's help, if it weren't for Zhao Xun today, I'm afraid you would be in a lot of trouble. ”
Su Ran came to Zhao Xun and said slightly: "Ran'er, thank you Brother Zhao for your righteous action!" ”
Zhao Xun hurriedly replied: "Miss Su doesn't need to be polite, Zhao is a subordinate of Lord Su, and it should be like this when he encounters these things!" ”
Su Ran's round eyes rolled, smiled slyly, and said, "So, what does Brother Zhao mean is that if it weren't for my father's subordinates, he wouldn't be in charge today?" ”
"Uh......" Zhao Xun didn't expect this Su Ran to ask as he did the next, and said lightly: "Maybe, maybe not!" ”
At this time, even Su Yun and Mrs. Su were shocked by Zhao Xun's answer, they didn't expect Zhao Xun to be so direct, in front of the other party, they said that they would not help each other, no, they should help each other.
"Brother Zhao, how can you say that?" Li Ruolan heard that Zhao Xun's answer was really bad, and saw that Su Yun and Mrs. Su were stunned, and hurriedly reminded.
Zhao Xun watched Su Ran's sly evil smile freeze suddenly, and couldn't help but laugh secretly. Hearing Li Ruolan's slightly concerned question, he said lightly: "If it weren't for Master Su behind me, would I dare to break Sima Qi's leg without hesitation today?" Maybe as soon as Sima Qi was repaired, hundreds of us immediately became traitors, and then they were wiped out in Yanzhou City, if you want to clean up Sima Qi, there are not a few people who want to clean up Sima Qi, why no one dares to do it? I did this today, not because Miss Su is Miss Su, but because someone else, I will do the same, because I am not afraid, I have soldiers and horses behind me, and there are more than a thousand soldiers who dare to fight. Forgive me for speaking directly, for I am the leader of thousands, and I am responsible for thousands. However, even if there is no Lord Su, I will help Miss, but there is a lot of trouble. Miss Su is still satisfied with my answer? ”
"Humph!" Su Ran turned around and returned to Li Ruolan's side, no longer looking at Zhao Xun's face full of evil smiles.
Li Ruolan heard that Zhao Xun did not change her words, glared at him angrily, and hurriedly said to Su Yun and Mrs. Su beside her: "Zhao Xun is a straight person, I hope Lord Su will forgive me." ”
Su Yun waved his hand and said: "Zhao Xun is right, standing in his position, he should think about it like this, only in this way can he get long-term, okay, Zhao Xun, you and I are not outsiders, you have a life-saving grace for me, don't be too polite, just put this place on the spot and your own home, besides, I also need your help." You say, what should we do now? These people outside didn't come to help me when I was in trouble, but now that I'm back, they've all come over. ”
"It's okay, Zhao Xun has overstepped, I think that the adult should see Wutong first, although he stayed away from Su Mansion after the assassination of the adult, but this is also his means of self-preservation, it is not a betrayal. Besides, we are isolated and helpless in Yanzhou City, and if we are strong, the enemy will be weak. The stronger we are, the more jealous Sima Yun and them are, and they don't dare to make a move against us. ”
Su Yun nodded and said: "What you said makes sense, I will meet that Wutong in a while, if he is willing to turn upside down, I don't mind what he did before, if he is unwilling, then I can only take him out." ”
"Don't worry, my lord, I think this Wutong is about to fall to the adult." Saying that, Zhao Xun said what he did today.
Su Yun touched his chin and said happily: "You kid is amazing, you can shock that Wutong in a few words, but if he is still a grass on the wall, then follow the method you said, get rid of him." ”
"You said you're going to build a Castle outside the city?"
"Yes, I'm going to buy fertile land outside the city and build a Wubao by the way, aren't the landlords in Youzhou doing that? With Wubao, we can support each other with Yanzhou City, and at the same time, we can also recruit soldiers and settle their families there. ”
"Since you have this idea, then be bold and do it, I will definitely give it my full support."
"My lord, I think we also have to take the right to guard the west gate of Yanzhou, so as not to have an emergency, we will be trapped and die in the city, don't forget, your assassination is related to the Yan Ya."
When Su Yun heard this, his face suddenly became stern: "Why did this Sima Yun collude with Yan Yan?" Okay, let's not talk about this for now, let's go to the banquet together, so that we can meet these upper-class people in Yanzhou. ”
Zhao Xun smiled bitterly: "I'd better forget it, everyone outside will call me a big bad guy who does all kinds of evil, and if I go, I won't be liked." ”
Su Yun smiled dumbly and said, "That's fine, then let Ran'er and Miss Li accompany you to the mansion, and then eat something by yourself in the backyard." ”
After speaking, he went out with Mrs. Su, and seemed to be very relieved that Zhao Xun stayed with his daughter.
"Hey, I didn't expect you to be so cold! He even said that he would not be saved when he saw death! After his parents left, Su Ran said angrily.
Zhao Xun stopped looking at the study and said lightly: "Miss Su, one, I don't call him, you can call me Zhao Xun." Second, I am not ruthless, compared to the safety of Miss Su alone, the lives of more than 1,000 people are more important. If Miss Su is dissatisfied with my statement, then there is nothing I can do. ”
"Sister Su, don't blame him, what he said is also reasonable." Li Ruolan hurriedly explained for Zhao Xun.
Su Ran looked at Li Ruolan with a smile, and Li Ruolan, who had been watching, blushed and asked, "Sister Su, what are you looking at?" ”
Su Ran smiled and said, "I'm talking about him, what are you explaining?" Do you? ”
Li Ruolan's face turned even redder, and she pretended to be angry and said, "Sister Su, what are you talking about?" I don't hope there will be no misunderstanding between you, after all...... After all, he helped you once, and he's your father's helper! ”
"Okay, okay, I'm just going to say it, look at your urgency!" Su Ranjiao said with a smile.
"Let's go, Brother Zhao, I'll take you to the mansion to have a look around, don't call me Miss Su in the future, just call me Ran'er, didn't my father say it, you will treat this place as your home in the future."
