Chapter 187: Forgery of Letters
Wu Ruotang hugged left and right, enjoying the blessings of all people, but the happy time is always short-lived, Shang Xiuxun quickly came back to his senses and withdrew his little hand: "Five thousand five hundred horses, not a small amount, I want to go back and discuss with the deacon!" After saying that, he left in a hurry with a red face.
"Xiaotang, tomorrow is Sister Xiuxun's birthday, you can prepare a delicate gift, if Sister Xiuxun likes it, things will be much easier!" Shan Wanjing lowered her head and said shyly.
"Well, got it, I'll prepare, thank you!" Looking at the beautiful and delicious beauties, how could Wu Ruotang not be moved.
"It's okay, you have the grace of reinvention for me Dongming!" Shan Wanjing pretended to be calm.
"That's because of you, but it was for you that time!" Wu Ruotang whispered in Shan Wanjing's ear.
Shan Wanjing, who was in love for the first time, was immediately shy, and her heart was very happy. This is tantamount to a confession.
"Brother Wu, are you there?" Just when Wu Ruotang was about to kiss Fang Ze, Shuanglong came over.
"In!" The two passionate men and women immediately parted and pretended to be serious.
In the blink of an eye, Ssangyong came in one after the other, with a hint of sadness on his face.
"Brother Kou, Brother Xu, what's wrong?" Wu Ruotang got up and said worriedly.
"Brother Wu, we're ready to leave!" Kou Zhong said gloomily.
According to the original book, Shuanglong should indeed leave for Jingling, but because of Wu Ruotang's intervention, he is afraid that he will change history, at least, Shang Xiuxun will not accompany him.
"Brother Kou is determined to be in the world, and a corner of peace is indeed not a long-term solution!" Wu Ruotang nodded.
"Kou Zhong wants to go to Jingling!" Xu Ziling said.
Wu Ruotang nodded: "Right now, Jingling is surrounded by the Wagang army, with the talents of Brother Kou and Brother Xu, we will definitely be able to save Jingling from fire and water!" ”
Ssangyong was quite proud of this encouragement, and Kou Zhong said even more happily: "Brother Wu, you still know me, haha!" ”
"By the way, there's something I want to give to Brother Kou as a gift!" Wu Ruotang took out Lu Miaozi's "Art of War" from his arms and solemnly handed it over to Kou Zhong.
Ssangyong is also a person who knows goods. After Kou Zhong flipped through a few pages, he was overjoyed: "Brother Wu's favor, Kou Zhong will definitely repay it later!" ”
"It's all brothers, you're welcome!" Wu Ruotang smiled and waved his hand. A picture of righteousness and clouds, Lu Miaozi's "Art of War" has been written down completely, and it doesn't make much sense to keep it, so he made a favor and sent it to Kou Zhong.
After saying goodbye to Ssangyong. Wu Ruotang also lost the mind to take advantage of Shan Wanjing, and after sending Shuanglong on the boat with Shi Potian, the two began to practice martial arts hard! Shi Potian is a martial arts genius, and the longevity technique and Taixuan Gong are extremely subtle and high-grade martial arts, he and Xu Ziling have been studying the perfect fusion of the two in the past few days, although they have not succeeded, but they have also sorted out a trace of ideas.
Sui Wen's chaos made the player forces realize that this was a good time for them to show their ambitions, the Sword and Sword Shadow Building, the Tianjiao Alliance, and the Imperial Dynasty. A large number of player forces such as the Purple Light Pavilion have poured in, either taking refuge in one of the princes, or occupying one side, and the killing is in full swing. In particular, the Iron-blooded Army Banner Gang has conquered three cities, and its momentum is approaching Wu Ruotang.
Wu Ruotang was also about to move, thinking about whether he should intervene, but was sternly rejected by Jin Se Mixiang: "Are you brainless, our enemy is King Yan at the moment, and his power is weak." If you disperse your forces again, you will undoubtedly die even more ugly! Peace of mind development is the last word! ”
Wu Ruotang, who dispelled the idea of participating in the war, thought of a good way to take advantage of the chaos to develop, the Sui Wen war was in full swing, and the people were miserable. I have a strong fleet, and I can take the refugees back to Qiongzhou, isn't what Qiongzhou lacks at the moment is the population? This suggestion was agreed to by Jin Se Mixiang.
"Two thousand five hundred horses, is this too little?" At night, Wu Ruoyu, Jin Se Mixiang, and Shan Wanjing met with Shang Xiuxun together. Hearing that she was only willing to sell two thousand five hundred war horses, Wu Ruotang couldn't help but have a headache.
"This is the result of my consultation with the whole ranch!" Shang Xiuxun bowed his head.
Shan Wanjing opened her mouth and said weakly: "Sister Xiuxun, you don't need to please King Qin so much, he, he is not like what he seems!" ”
King Qin is certainly very charismatic, but only those who have a deep understanding know that he is also a person who will do anything for power.
"I'm not afraid of King Qin, but everyone in the ranch is unwilling to risk offending King Qin to sell horses! If I hadn't said that Xiaotang had a life-saving grace for me, I was afraid that they wouldn't sell any of them! Shang Xiuxun frowned.
Wu Ruotang felt helpless, he had always been bullying people, but he didn't expect to be bullied today.
"Owner, take a step back, five thousand horses! Couldn't be less! Wu Ruotang took a deep breath and said helplessly.
"You!" Shang Xiuxun was really angry, do you call each one to take a step back.
"Three thousand horses, if there is no news from King Qin within half a month, the remaining two thousand five hundred horses are also yours!" Shang Xiuxun is obviously really good to Wu Ruotang.
"Don't wait, King Qin has to deal with the forces of the crown prince and the king of Qi right now, why spend another half a month, just let me take it away at once!" Wu Ruotang joked.
"If you do this again, you won't have a horse!" Shang Xiuxun said unhappily.
"Xiuxun, we have fought side by side!" Wu Ruotang had no choice but to play the emotional card again.
The beauty owner sighed helplessly: "It's useless for you to say it's useless!" ”
"Otherwise, let's make a bet, tomorrow is your birthday, if it is my birthday gift, if it can satisfy you, you will give me all 5,500 horses!" Wu Ruotang rubbed his hands and said.
Shang Xiuxun was slightly stunned, he didn't expect Wu Ruotang to make this suggestion, and after thinking for a while, he nodded and said, "Yes!" "But I thought in my heart, even if you pluck the stars from the sky, I don't like it, you can't help it.
Wu Ruotang looked at the smile on the corner of Shang Xiuxun's mouth, and knew what idea this girl had in her heart, but he couldn't help it right now! Lu Miaozi left a lot of good things, all of which are ingenious and exquisite treasures, hoping to impress the beauty owner.
Jin Se Mixiang on the side, Shan Wanjing all had a gray face, in their opinion, this time I am afraid that it is really hanging.
After sending Shang Xiuxun away, Wu Ruotang was thinking about how to please Shang Xiuxun, when an unexpected person appeared.
"Time shifts, see the master!" A thin black shadow suddenly appeared beside Wu Ruotang.
"Brother Shi, when did you come?" Wu Ruotang couldn't believe his eyes.
"I came here with General Zheng's fleet, and Mr. Jiang specially asked me to bring a letter to the master!" After speaking, Shi Qian took out a sealed letter from his bosom.
"What is this?" Wu Ruotang pinched the thin letter, a little puzzled.
"I don't know, but the gentleman said that if the owner gives this letter to the mall owner. How much does the sycophant want! Shi Qian said proudly.
Wu Ruotang shook his head in disbelief, if that was the case, it would be amazing.
"Guess what's in this letter?" Wu Ruotang held the letter and asked Shan Wanjing and Jin Se Mixiang.
Jin Se Mixiang, who has always liked to use her brain, has long been thinking about what Jiang Ziya will write in it. But after thinking about it, he shook his head helplessly, this thing is really impossible to guess.
"Did the gentleman say when it would be handed over to the owner?" Wu Ruotang said with a hint of excitement.
"I didn't say this, I can come whenever I want!" Shi Qian said calmly.
Wu Ruotang clenched the envelope and hurriedly went to find Shang Xiuxun. There is a silver lining, and then you have to give it a try.
Pegasus Ranch, in the courtyard of Shang Xiuxun's high-rise building, the owner of the beauty farm is frowning and checking the letter submitted by Wu Ruotang.
"This was sent by His Royal Highness King Qin?" Shang Xiuxun suddenly spoke.
Wu Ruotang was slightly stunned, what is the situation, why is it related to Li Shimin again, but at the moment, it seems that there is nothing else to do except nodding.
"Official!" Wu Ruotang looked calm.
"Where's the messenger?" Shang Xiuxun asked.
"Go back!" Wu Ruotang lied without blinking his eyelids.
"You can't be deceiving me, are you?" Shang Xiuxun said with a hint of nervousness on his face.
"Fool, how could I lie to you?" Wu Ruotang looked tender. But he said helplessly in his heart: "It's not that I want to lie to you, if I don't lie to you, I can't help it!" ”
"Hmph. Forgive me for not daring! Shang Xiuxun nodded and said proudly.
After a moment of silence, Shang Xiuxun got up and said, "I'll go and discuss with the deacons again, since King Qin won't need this horse until half a year later, then I can embezzle it and sell it to you first!" ”
"That's it, thank you!" Wu Ruotang got up and said respectfully. At this time, he had already guessed that Jiang Ziya must have made people forge Li Shimin's letters, and he deserved to be a master, and he could come up with such a unique idea! And it seems that he has successfully deceived Sushang Xiuxun, presumably it must be the credit of Xiao Rang and Jin Dajian.
The council chamber of Pegasus Ranch is up. Several high-level officials looked at the letters passed in and out of their hands, expressed their opinions, and competed for the heat.
"Owner. Have you ever been sure of the authenticity of this letter? Archdeacon Shang Zhen questioned.
Shang Xiuxun said unswervingly: "The belief is 100% true, there is no doubt about it!" ”
"Why is the owner so determined?" Commander Wu Feng questioned. He was the most staunch Qin faction within the ranch.
"What Deacon Wu said is very right, the heart of defense is indispensable!" Xu Yongli agreed.
Hearing this, the deacons either nodded or bowed their heads, which made Shang Xiuxun quite annoyed. I am the owner of the field, and I have promised that they are aggressively asking for witnesses, isn't this questioning their own authority?
"I am very familiar with King Qin's own and seals, I can't be wrong!" Shang Xiuxun said indifferently. There was already a hint of coolness in her tone, and those who were familiar with her knew that the beauty was angry.
"This, I always think, no matter what, we still can't rush so many war horses into the hands of a complete stranger! Even if the other party has money, it can't be! Wu Feng didn't know Shang Xiuxun, and he was still chattering.
Luo Fang on the side was unhappy, he was very close to Shuanglong, this time it was Shang Xiuxun who promoted him to be the deputy deacon, and then Wu Xiaotang was Shuanglong's brother, so he naturally supported Shang Xiuxun with a clear banner.
"Deacon Xu, Deacon Wu, are you questioning the owner?" Luo Fang said unceremoniously. Shang Zhen should have been added! But Shang Zhen is an archdeacon, and his status is too high to shake.
Xu Yongli and Wu Feng realized that their attitude towards Shang Xiuxun just now was indeed a little disrespectful, but they didn't think so in their hearts, anyway, Shang Zhen took the lead.
As the archdeacon of Pegasus Ranch, of course Shang Zhen knew that what he did just now would cause Shang Xiuxun to be unhappy, but he didn't care, he felt that he couldn't sit back and watch Shang Xiuxun mess around like this and offend King Qin!
"Why is the owner so sure that this is a letter from King Qin?" Shang Zhen glared at Luo Fang and motioned for him not to talk too much.
Shang Xiuxun was silent for a moment before he said slowly: "I have kept the correspondence with King Qin in the past, and the archdeacon can take a look!" After speaking, let people hand over the past letters to Shang Zhen.
After receiving the previous letters, Shang Zhen looked at them carefully for a long time and nodded slightly. The letter was then handed over to the others.
After watching Pegasus' high-level watch. They were all silent. Whether it is from the handwriting or the seal, there is no problem with this letter.
"This is a personal letter from His Royal Highness King Qin, there is no doubt about it!" Luo Fang said.
Shang Xiuxun nodded slightly, and Shang Zhen and the others were powerless to refute.
"Even if His Royal Highness King Qin doesn't need it for the time being. We can't rush into these horses! Wu Feng still insisted on not selling, but his voice was much quieter.
"Reason!" Shang Xiuxun was dissatisfied.
Wu Feng squeaked for a long time, and couldn't say why, but Shang Zhen opened his mouth: "Owner, I think it's a big deal." Let's ask His Royal Highness King Qin for the following! ”
"That's right! The stakes are high, and you can't be sloppy! Fang Yongli said.
Luo Fang objected: "This suggestion is inappropriate, His Royal Highness King Qin must have something unspeakable to write this letter, otherwise, it will not be a few months before deciding whether to decide whether to use this batch of horses!" If we ask again, wouldn't we have the suspicion of humiliating the King of Qin? That's what greatly hurts the friendship between the two families! ”
Luo Fang's words were reasonable, so that Shang Zhen and the others had no way to refute it at all, they could only blow their beards and stare at them, but Shang Xiuxun smiled with satisfaction. This Luo Fang. It's a talent, and it's worth cultivating.
"Owner, tomorrow is your birthday, look?" Luo Fang said that he had defeated everyone, and he felt a sense of accomplishment in his heart, and seeing that everyone didn't dare to answer, he pulled the topic to Shang Xiuxun's birthday.
Shang Zhen seemed to have seized some opportunity, got up and confessed to Shang Xiuxun: "Owner, the old man is often dizzy from time to time these days, and the doctor has asked him to rest more. Tomorrow's banquet ~~~~! ”
"Since the archdeacon is unwell, let's rest at home tomorrow!" Shang Xiuxun couldn't hear the voiceover of this old thing. Immediately spoke.
"Thank you for the main shirt!" Shang Zhen was not polite and responded directly.
Xu Yongli, Wu Feng and others also asked for leave. Shang Xiuxun was not hypocritical, and agreed to all. After everyone left, Shang Xiuxun could no longer suppress the anger in his heart, and threw the decoration in front of the table, pen, ink, paper and inkstone to the ground, as the owner of the ranch. Her subordinates even questioned her decision in order to curry favor with King Qin, could it be that in their eyes, King Qin was more important than herself, the owner?
Like Shan Wanjing, although Shang Xiuxun has been trained as a successor since she was a child, she is too young after all, and she still has a rebellious impulse in her bones, and the actions of Shang Zhen and others today have undoubtedly stimulated her.
Wu Ruotang didn't expect that the lethality of a letter would be so strong, completely turning the Qin King forces in the pasture out of the water.
Zheng Chenggong's fleet has arrived, and it is naturally very easy for dozens of giant ships to transport five thousand war horses.
In order to please Shang Xiuxun, Wu Ruotang specially selected a beautiful product of Lu Miaozi, a very delicate music box, which can emit a crisp and pleasant music sound with a slight turn, in this era, it is a treasure worth a thousand gold. It's also something that girls like very much.
When it was launched again, Pegasus Ranch was already red everywhere, and the owner's birthday, which was a big deal!
"Xiaotang, it's Sister Xiuxun's birthday today, are your gifts ready?" Shan Wanjing reminded.
"Don't worry, do you still need to remind me?" Wu Ruotang pinched Shan Wanjing's tender little face and said. The relationship between the two is getting closer and closer, and they often fight like this.
Shan Wanjing nodded reassuringly, with a charming flush on her face.
The luncheon was very rich, but only a small half of the high-level came, and the rest did not come to the banquet for various reasons, which made Shang Xiuxun very angry, and Wu Ruotang was also very vigilant, but he didn't expect this Li Shimin, unconsciously, to firmly control the Pegasus Ranch in his hands.
"Xiuxun, I wish you a happy birthday and eternal youth!" Wu Ruotang raised his glass and offered his blessings to Shang Xiuxun.
Today's Shang Xiuxun is naturally dressed in a thrilling way, with a light plum blossom makeup painted on her elegant jade face, and the immature youth on the original clear and beautiful face has faded to show a hint of charm, which is intimidating; If it was like a fairy, the demeanor was outstanding and captivating the country, but now it is like a fairy who has fallen into the dust by mistake and has lost his soul like a fairy who has been contaminated with a trace of dust, but the most memorable thing is the pair of brilliant starlight eyes.
Dressed in a golden gauze robe, the Hangzhou silk white robe looming inside, the waist is gently held by a light blue soft yarn of Jicui Mountain, slightly powdered, a black hair hangs down the thin waist, the head is chic and chic, the light and slow cloud sideburns are inserted in the amethyst moonless magnolia hairpin, the neck is hung with exquisite and transparent strings, wearing a lilac cardigan dress, embroidered with a beaded brocade, covered with a jade-colored smoke and silver silk light gauze shirt, lined with a moon-white slightly pink water lily short waist undergarment, and the waist is gently held by a Jicuishan light blue soft yarn.
Shang Xiuxun was very satisfied with Wu Ruotang's blessing, nodded slightly, and then said in a playful whisper: "Did you say a good gift!" ”
Wu Ruotang was slightly stunned, and then said happily: "Don't worry, it's already ready, you like it!" ”
Shang Xiuxun nodded with a little joy, since she was a child, it was the first time she was looking forward to the gift that a man had prepared for herself, Shan Wanjing on the side saw the two of them whispering, quite jealous!
The people in Pegasus Ranch were also surprised, is this woman with a happy smile still the owner who is high up on weekdays? That's a big difference!
Fortunately, Shang Xiuxun and Wu Xiaotang are both high-level people, and the two of them quickly came back to their senses, looking like nothing had happened! once again let Wu Xiaotang show off his superb acting skills in front of everyone. (To be continued.) )
