Chapter 14: Missing

The bazaar was a great success, and at the end of the day were three chests of silver, the lids of which were open, and the white silver ingots in the boxes shone brightly. Zhang Hongchou, Liu Junyang, Kuai Peng, Tang Xianzu and others were overjoyed, and they actually got carried away and sang a song on stage.

Xu Qiyun turned around to leave, but was stopped by Guan Xiaokun: "Little grandfather, we can't go." ”

Xu Qiyun glanced at him, and said with a stinky face: "What if you don't leave, do you still want to come forward to congratulate?" ”

Guan Xiaokun said: "Not bad! Not only do we have to congratulate them, but we also want to invite them to the banquet right away. ”

Xu Qiyun was furious and said, "Where are you kid?" ”

Li Xuancheng vaguely understood what Guan Xiaokun meant, so he said to Xu Qiyun: "Does the little grandfather plan to break the contract?" ”

Xu Qiyun said: "The eldest husband has made a word, and the horse is difficult to chase, and I will never break the contract if I promise it." ”

Li Xuancheng chuckled and said, "That's it, in this case, Brother Guan's move is for the sake of you, little grandfather." ”

Xu Qiyunqi said: "How do you say this? ”

Li Xuancheng said: "The little grandfather stepped forward to say hello, which showed your boldness, little grandfather." Inviting them to the banquet early to end the matter also saved Zhang Hongchou from getting carried away and using this to publicize it. ”

Guan Xiaokun said: "Yes! Zhang Hongchou had no chance of winning before, so he did not publicize it to the public. Now it's not the case, after today, even if Zhang Hongchou doesn't say it, it will be difficult to ensure that Liu Junyang and Kuai Peng's two big mouths are publicized to the outside world, at that time, little grandfather, you invite them to the banquet again, but I don't know how many people will come to see our jokes. ”

Xu Qiyun listened to it and suddenly said, "Yes, it's such a reason." He puffed out his chest and walked forward with a very bare face. Xu Qiyun walked up to Zhang Qiyun, arched his hand and said, "You can come up with such a method, Xu admires!" ”

Zhang Hongchou didn't expect Xu Qiyun, who had always been arrogant, to put down his body like this, and he was a little surprised. The status of the Xu family is much higher than that of his Zhang family, and Xu Qiyun is willing to bow to him. Zhang Hongchou suddenly had face, so he didn't want to gain an inch, so he hurriedly arched his hand and said: "Where, where, this is all the help of the brothers, if it weren't for this Xiaotian brother's clever strategy, Zhang would definitely lose to the little grandfather." ”

Xu Qiyun glanced at Ye Xiaotian with some surprise, and said with a forced smile: "No matter what, I lost!" According to the gambling contract, you are invited to the banquet in the Retranslation Building. I apologize to you with wine. ”

Zhang Hong was stunned and said, "So fast? ”

Rui Qingxing said angrily: "What, you still want to drag this matter to humiliate us?" ”

Zhang Hong said suddenly: "Is Zhang a person who is unforgiving?" It's just that I have to find a place to store these silver taels first. ”

Guan Xiaokun said: "What's so difficult about this, please ask the guys in this store to help, and transport these silver taels to the Guozijian first, it's not far from here, and there are officers and soldiers guarding it, which can be described as foolproof." What is the harm of keeping them in their storehouses for a day? ”

These children of official eunuchs have all studied in Guozijian, Guan Xiaokun, Zhang Hongchou, and Liu Junyang are still the prisoners of Guozijian, and they all know the situation of Guozijian, such a large amount of silver. It was indeed safe to temporarily store it in the Guozijian, so he said, "Okay, then transport the silver to the Guozijian." ”

At this time, the daughters of the boudoir upstairs have not left, and some people in the restaurant have not yet left. Xu Qiyun was very uncomfortable with them, although they didn't know how Xu Qiyun and Zhang Hongchou made a bet, but Xu Qiyun still had a feeling that he was being pointed at and secretly ridiculed.

He wanted to get out of here at once. Then he said: "Then you can send someone to transport the silver to the Guozijian, and we will go to the retranslation building." Xu immediately fulfilled his promise! ”

Rui Qingxing added, "After this incident, don't go around publicizing it and ruining the reputation of our little grandfather." ”

Tang Xianzu sneered: "Young Master Rui doesn't have to carry the little grandfather out of the house, I think you are the one who is afraid of losing face." ”

Zhang Hongchou finally let the little grandfather fall behind once, but he couldn't be widely publicized, and there was some regret of "brocade night walking", but the status gap between the two families was too big, and he really couldn't offend the little grandfather to death. Thinking of this, Zhang Hongchou was naturally full of promises.

Zhang Hongchou looked back and said, "Brother Kuai, look at ......"

Kuai Peng understood, and said: "Don't worry, I will escort the silver to the Guozijian, and then go to the Retranslation Building to find you!" ”

Kuai Peng is a brocade guard, and he is more sophisticated and shrewd than the other sons, so it is naturally the most appropriate to leave this matter to him. Of course, there will be no one robbing the road in Nanjing City, but after all, this is three big boxes of silver, Ye Xiaotian remembered that there were a lot of fast catches and patrols around when the lion dance outside the building, there were too many refugees in Nanjing City recently, as long as there were people gathered, there must be a large number of fast catches, and the government was very vigilant about this.

Ye Xiaotian said to Zhang Hong, "Brother Zhang, you can ask the catchers outside the building to help escort you." ”

Zhang Hongchou nodded yes, and hurriedly asked someone to go out to inform those fast catchers. If there is a big case in the area that these arresters are responsible for, it is difficult to escape the blame for these arrests, and these people in the building are all children of high-ranking officials, so those arresters will naturally agree.

Kuai Peng asked the restaurant for three big locks, locked the silver box, called a few powerful and burly men, tied the box neatly with ropes, inserted two big bars, the four men carried a box, shouted in unison, lifted the box with difficulty, and walked outside.

At this time, Zhan Ning'er, Xia Yingying and others had come down from upstairs, Xia Yingying didn't care that there were so many people at the scene, how particular was the defense of men and women in the Central Plains Rite Sect, she flew up to the stage like a little swallow, grabbed Ye Xiaotian's arm, and said diligently: "Brother Xiaotian, you are so amazing, people are watching from upstairs, and their hearts are about to explode!" ”

Ye Xiaotian smiled and scratched her nose and said, "That's called a blooming heart!" ”

Xia Yingying grimaced at him and said with a grin: "When I don't know this word? If people's hearts are more joyful than their hearts are full of joy, then they can only explode like fireworks. ”

Ye Xiaotian laughed, Sister Sun had a very low position on herself from the beginning, seeing that Ye Xiaotian and Yingying were affectionate, she was not jealous, she just stepped forward and praised sweetly: "Brother Xiaotian, you are really good!" ”

Zhan Ning'er's mentality is very strange, when Ye Xiaotian and Xia Yingying are separated by mountains and rivers and difficult to see each other, she runs thousands of miles for them, sending messages back and forth. No complaints. When Xia Yingying wanted to see Ye Xiaotian, she racked her brains to help Yingying think of escaping from Hongfeng Lake, but when she really saw that they were tired of being together, she felt very bad in her heart.

At this time, seeing the two making love, Zhan Ning'er seemed to have knocked over a mouthful of vinegar jar in her heart, and she had to sour mockery: "What kind of big skill is this, it can't help the people through the country, and it is not a decisive battle, it's just a little trick from the side." What's the big deal. ”

Although Xia Yingying is innocent, she is not stupid, she naturally understands why the second sister always appears at inopportune times, and when she says something inappropriate, she is not annoyed, she only grimaces at Zhan Ning'er, and says: "What does it have to do with me to win the battle and help the people?" In my heart, Brother Xiao Tian is a great ability! ”

They were bickering. More than a dozen guys had already carried the silver box out of the hall and into the foyer corridor, Kuai Peng followed, just stepped up the steps, and suddenly someone behind him shouted: "Kuai Peng." You wait. ”

Kuai Peng looked back, Guan Xiaokun quickly caught up, took out something from his arms, handed it to him, and said, "I forgot to give it to you." ”

Kuai Peng took it and took a look. Seeing that it was a waist card, he didn't look at what was written on it, so he frowned and said, "What is this?" ”

Guan Xiaokun said proudly: "The tokens that enter and exit the retranslation building." Otherwise, do you think you can get in? ”

Kuai Peng was stunned, although he was a Jinyi guard, but the special place with an official background in the Chongyi Building was not something he could enter casually, after all, it was a place where foreign ministers were specially summoned. Kuai Peng snorted coldly, picked up the waist card and turned around and left.

Guan Xiaokun snorted behind him and said, "It's just shit luck to win us, what's the point of pride." ”

Kuai Peng listened to it in his ears, raised his feet, and suddenly turned into a singing step, singing: "Ah, yes, yes, I see it, and I pity the iron and stone people when they see it." He, he, and he had a bow in his bag, and there was not a single arrow in the pot; How to exhibit, wait, wait, and wait? Earn, front, and earn broke the bowstring two or three times. Walk, walk, walk and escape on horseback into Yuke Garden. Come, come, come two people will go around Dingyuke, see, see, see more ruthless like the Miragawa! Shan Xiongxin was defeated here, and I won Chi Gong! Hahahaha......"

Kuai Peng sang this section triumphantly, Guan Xiaokun's nose was crooked, he snorted coldly, turned around and left. Kuai Peng sang proudly, and walked out of the Baishan Building, and a group of catchers guarding outside the Baishan Building immediately greeted him, and the leading catcher was the Xing catcher who wanted to arrest Ye Xiaotian and the others before.

Although Kuai Peng pretended to be Dou E wearing makeup that day, but the eyes of the person who was the head catcher were so vicious, the head of the torture arrester recognized Kuai Peng, and hurriedly stepped forward to laugh and said: "Lord Baihu, you are so interested, this is singing the truth." ”

Kuai Peng laughed and said, "It turned out to be you, help me transport this silver to the Guozi Prison, there is labor." ”

Xing Zhutou said with a smile: "It should be, it should be, Lord Baihu, please!" ”

At that moment, a group of catchers surrounded the three silver boxes and headed towards the national prison.

The style of the retranslation building is naturally the highest among the sixteenth floors of Jinling, especially the best official servants and musicians here to sing and sing, sing and dance, although the wine and food are not necessarily more delicious than other places, but these alone are enough to make people flutter.

Especially this banquet is Xu Xiaogong's apology wine, Zhang Hongchou and others feel that it is very different from the previous wine banquet, everyone let go of the open drink that night, and in the end, except for Ye Xiaotian and Hua Yunfei and Mao Wenzhi, the three brothers were actually drunk.

※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※

Early the next morning, Ye Xiaotian got up, thinking that he would go to get the silver taels first, and then go to various grain shops to buy grain, but he didn't want the news of the success of yesterday's charity sale had spread.

Shopkeeper Tong thought that instead of selling grain in a grain shop, it would be better to sell it together, so it was worth making less money. Zhang Hongchou and others are all children of official eunuchs, and the threshold is too high, so he can't enter as a businessman, so he came to the pavilion to ask to see Ye Xiaotian.

Ye Xiaotian was naturally overjoyed when he heard this, which also saved him from running around and bargaining one by one, he negotiated the price with the shopkeeper Tong, and then went to Tang Xianzu excitedly. The dizzy Tang Xianzu was dragged up by Ye Xiaotian, and then went to find Zhang Hongchou with Ye Xiaotian and Shopkeeper Tong.

Zhang Hongchou was bedridden, and after listening to Ye Xiaotian's explanation, he lay on the couch like a dead dog, and said weakly: "My head is about to explode, let's go over later, you go to Kuai Peng, he has the key, let him take you to Guozijian to get the silver taels." ”

Ye Xiaotian and Tang Xianzu had no choice but to leave Zhang's mansion and go to Kuai Peng's house again. The Kuaifu family led them to Kuaipeng's bedroom, and as soon as they entered the house, they smelled a strong smell of alcohol, and the two woke up Kuaipeng, who was asleep, and dragged him out of the bed.

Kuai Peng was at the mercy of them in a daze, and during the whole process of washing and dressing, Kuai Peng was always in a state of half-asleep and half-awake. finally made this master look a little human, seeing that he couldn't ride a horse, and put him in the car of the shopkeeper Tong, the group ran to the country.

With Kuai Peng leading the way, they entered the Guozijian very smoothly, and at this time, those students who had lived in the school for a long time were in class, and the sound of books was loud. Kuai Peng was already sober at this time, and led Tang Xianzu, Ye Xiaotian and Shopkeeper Tong to meet Mr. Le Lingle, the secretary of Guozijian who was in charge of accommodation, meals and warehousing, and said hello to Le Siye, and then went to the warehouse area.

When he arrived at the warehouse area, Kuai Peng looked at it in a daze, pointed with his hand, and said, "This is it." ”

Because this warehouse was stored with silver taels, Le Siye also gave him the door key, Kuai Peng took out the door key, and he didn't aim at the keyhole for a long time, Tang Xianzu waited impatiently, grabbed it and opened the door, Kuai Peng was helped by Ye Xiaotian and staggered in, pointed to the wall and said, "Oh, it's all ...... It's all there. ”

Ye Xiaotian said: "Shopkeeper Tong, let your buddies come to help, Yunfei and Lao Mao, you two also go to help." ”

Hua Yunfei and Mao Wenzhi agreed, walked over with a few guys from the shopkeeper Tong, and forcefully lifted a box, this time a few people almost flashed, Mao Wenzhi screamed, and said, "Oh mom, why is it so light?" ”

Hua Yunfei's face changed, he let go and went around the front of the box, touched the lock, and was shocked to find that the lock nose had been pried open, Hua Yunfei hurriedly opened the box, and shouted: "Big brother, it's not good, this box is empty!" ”

"What?"

Ye Xiaotian was taken aback, hurriedly let go of Kuai Peng, and quickly grabbed it.

Kuai Peng suddenly lost his support, stood unsteadily, and sat on the ground with his buttocks.

Ye Xiaotian rushed over to take a look, the box was empty, it was really empty.

Ye Xiaotian hurriedly rushed to the wall, touched it, and the lock was hanging on it properly, but the lock nose had been pried open, Ye Xiaotian hurriedly opened the box and looked into the box, and couldn't help but see that it was dark, and the box in front of him was also empty!
