Chapter 156: The Castle

Leng Yi's heart moved, what he was most worried about was how to find out the situation of the person he wanted to kill when he arrived at Misan. Because the target is now Lord Missan's son-in-law. Living deep in the castle, if he doesn't come out all the time, I'm afraid that he will have to enter the castle to investigate before sneaking in. So, if you have the opportunity to enter the castle, it will be much more convenient.

Thinking of this, Leng Yi hurriedly smiled all over his face, got up and said, "Thank you." If you have a referral from the leader, the business will be better. ”

The head man laughed and said, "Tsering, the steward of the lord of Misang, is from our village, and he has a good relationship with me. In that case, I will write you a letter right away, and you take it to Tsering, and he will arrange business for you. ”

"Thank you!"

"No thanks, you helped me, of course I want to help you. Gifts are still exchanged. ”

Leng Yi muttered in his stomach: If you sleep with someone's daughter, people still have to be grateful, what is this.

The head man entered the inner room, and soon, he came out again, took a letter and handed it to Leng Yi. At the same time, he gave Ram ten taels of silver to express his gratitude for her cooperation last night. Ram got a sum of money out of thin air and was very happy.

Leng Yi asked the head man if he knew a Tibetan merchant named Damaga, and the head man said that he didn't know him, but since he was a businessman, he might go to Misang City to do business, and the lord's butler Tsering might know him, so let him ask Tsering when the time came.

At the time of parting, the headman's wife took out a brocade box, handed it to Leng Yi with both hands, and said, "This is when Zhuoma left this morning, let me hand it over to you." ”

Leng Yi heard that Zhuoma had left, and he couldn't help but feel lost in his heart.

Leng Yi held the brocade box, and it was difficult to open it on the spot, so he said goodbye to the head man and his wife, and left the head man's mansion with Jiazhen and Ram.

Walking out of the distance, Leng Yi stood up, opened the brocade box, and saw a red coral necklace inside. There was a letter pressed below, Leng Yi picked it up, opened it, wrote it in beautiful Tibetan, and handed it to Jiazhen to help translate.

Jiazhen looked at it and said, "This is written by Zhuoma to you, saying that before she got married, she felt very happy to be able to spend the wedding night with you, a man he admired." She will always remember this night. This string of red coral necklaces has been worn by her since she was a child, and she is now giving it to your wife, hoping that when you see this necklace in the future, you will be able to think of her. ”

Leng Yi looked at the necklace again, the red corals were like blooming flames, and in front of him, Zhuoma's hot and delicate body appeared. I couldn't help but sigh in my heart, alas! I don't know if we can see each other in this life and this life.

After saying goodbye to the Ram family, Leng Yi and the others continued to march towards Missang.

After a few hours, they finally arrived at the city of Missan.

This is where the lords of the Missan tribe lived, and the town was quite large, and the streets were full of people. Among them, you can occasionally see a few Han Chinese, as well as Persians with high noses and blue eyes.

Leng Yi and the others first escorted Xiao Luobu to the Yamen.

Misan's yamen was in the lord's castle. The castle is located in the center of the city of Misan, surrounded by high walls and tiles, and has become a city within a city.

Leng Yi looked at the high wall, Leng Yi nodded secretly in his heart, the quality of this high wall is much worse than the wall of the big family of the Great Song Dynasty, although the height is higher, but, perhaps because of the wind and sand, the gap between the bricks of the wall is relatively large, giving him a place to settle and intervene, and he is confident that he can climb up through these gaps. However, the guards above the walls were a problem. The guards patrol very frequently, most of them carry bows and arrows, and must find weak points to break through.

They explained their intentions, and the guards at the gate of the castle led them to the castle's yamen. An official came out to receive him. Leng Yi explained everything through Jiazhen's translation, and took out the testimony of those witnesses. Misang Yamen put Xiao Luo Bu in prison and expressed his gratitude to Leng Yi for sending the criminals to the yamen for their long journey.

Seeing that the criminals were sent to prison for punishment, the Central Bazaar was relieved. After coming out of the castle, he said goodbye to Leng Yi and returned to his hometown.

Leng Yi and Jiazhen found an inn to live in. After washing, Leng Yi changed into a gorgeous new dress, took Jiazhen to buy a new dress, and returned to the inn.

When the sun set in the evening, Leng Yi took out two human skin masks and put them on himself and Jiazhen. Jiazhen and Bai Hong are good friends, and they are used to this kind of human skin mask. Don't ask too much, take it and put it on. Only then did he swagger to Lord Misan's castle.

The reason why he chose this time was mainly because this human skin mask was still easy to see flaws when the light was bright, and the light of ancient lanterns and other lamps at night was not strong, so it was not easy to see the problem.

When they came to the city gate, Jiazhen stepped forward and told the guard that he was looking for the steward Tsering, and handed the letter over. The guards entered the castle with the letters, and soon, they came out again, with a smile on their faces, and asked Leng Yi to let them in.

A servant in the gate led them forward. Leng Yi's head didn't look around, but his eyes remembered the situation of the places he passed by in his heart one by one.

The servant led them to a parlor in a large courtyard in the castle, where they waited, and then went in to make a report.

After a while, a little old man with sinister eyebrows and thief eyes came in, but with a smile on his face, he saw Leng Yi arching his hand and said, "Shopkeeper Leng, welcome to our Misang to do business!" I am Tsering. ”

He speaks Chinese, and although he is not fluent, he is already quite good. Leng Yixi said: "The housekeeper is polite!" I didn't expect that Butler Tsering could speak Chinese, so I didn't need to ask a translator to come. ”

Tsering smiled, looked quite proud, and said: "There are people from all over the world who come to our Missan City to do business, and many of them are merchants of your Great Song Dynasty, in order to deal with them, you must learn Chinese." ――The cold shopkeeper doesn't know what business to do? ”

Leng Yi's business is fake, and it is true to come in to investigate. He smiled at the moment: "It's the first time I've come to Missan for business, and I don't know what special products I can ship back to sell for money." Can the Tsering housekeeper help introduce the introduction, and after making money, I can't forget the housekeeper's goodness. ”

After a few humble words, Tsering said some of Misan's local products and things that needed to be bought from the Great Song Dynasty. Leng Yi listened to the book very monographically, and even thanked him after listening to it. "I don't know what business to do for a while, so let me think about it." ”

"Okay! Don't worry, do business, you must think about it before deciding. ”

Leng Yi said again: "There is one more thing I want to ask the housekeeper." ”

"Leng shopkeeper, please speak."

"Does the housekeeper know a Tibetan merchant named Dharmaga?"

Tsering was stunned for a moment, then smiled and said, "Our lord's nephew is called Damaga. ”

Leng Yi was immediately overjoyed and said, "What does he look like?" How old is it? ”

Tsering described the man's appearance, height, weight, etc., and also said his age. It's exactly the same as the Damaga who died in the Devil's Axe Cliff!

Finally found it! Leng Yi suddenly breathed a sigh of relief in his heart. Come to think of it, this man was richly dressed, with precious jewels and gold jewelry, which could only be found by the nephew of the lord or something.

Leng Yi took out the necklace of Damaga's relics and handed it to Tsering's housekeeper with both hands.

Tsering took it and looked at it carefully, but he did not recognize the chain as belonging to the lord's nephew, Damaga. Because this chain was bought by Damaga from Misan to the Great Song Dynasty on the way, and was ready to resell it at a high price from others on the way. It's just one of the commodities in Damaga's hands. Tsering naturally didn't recognize it. felt that this chain was not bad, glanced at Leng Yi, and smiled: "The chain of the cold shopkeeper is good!" Want to sell? ”

Leng Yi was about to tell the truth, but when he heard Tsering say this, a new idea suddenly popped up in his heart. -- They entered the castle and checked the surroundings, but they didn't know exactly where the target was or what was near it, which was very bad for a sniper. This time, I didn't bring anything else, so I might as well use this necklace as a bait to see the lord's daughter and son-in-law, that is, the target I want to snipe, and after finding out the situation, I will tell the other party the truth and hand over the relics to the lord. Finally, find another opportunity to infiltrate the assassination.

After thinking about it, Leng Yi smiled and nodded: "Can this chain still enter the eyes of the housekeeper?" ”

Tsering smiled and said: "I am very honest in doing business, and I don't tell lies, this necklace is indeed very good, especially the nine-eyed stone in the middle, which can be said to be priceless!" The cold shopkeeper found us, which is considered to be the right person, to be honest, this necklace can only be afforded by people like us. Let's make a price for the cold shopkeeper! ”

Leng Yi thought that when Damaga was in the cave, he once said that this necklace was very valuable, and the nine-eyed stone was worth eight hundred taels of silver, which was the most expensive in the entire necklace, and it was more valuable than other gems combined. He didn't want to make a deal, but to meet the lord's daughter and son-in-law behind, especially the target of his sniping this time, the lord's son-in-law, the ungrateful Pu Ziqing.

Therefore, Leng Yi deliberately raised the price and said: "One price, 30,000 taels of silver!" ”

He directly increased the price of this necklace thirtyfold!

Tsering was stunned, and then handed the necklace back to Leng Yi and said, "It turns out that Shopkeeper Leng is not here to do business, but to show off your jewelry." ”

Leng Yi said: "Bargain, I will bid, if you think it is too high, you can bargain." ”

Tsering smiled bitterly and shook his head: "At your price, there is no way for people to bargain." If you want to say three thousand taels, I still want to make a counteroffer, but your mouth is this number, hehe, then the intention is not to sell. ”

Leng Yi said: "Jewelry, it all depends on the fate, our Great Song Dynasty has a saying that 'gold is priceless and jade is priceless'." Jade is also a type of jewelry, so it's really hard to say how much this jewelry is worth. It's all up to the individual to like it or not. If he likes it, it is now 120,000 taels, and he will be willing to buy it, if he doesn't like it, he will not want it. Big housekeeper, do you think that's the reason? ”
