Chapter 69: Deliberately (1st Update)
Yan Qing watched the carrier pigeon fly away, a little itchy.
He asked Yunluo, "You raised this carrier pigeon yourself?" Or did she give it? β
Yunluo looked at Yan Qing, "The master ordered someone to domesticate a batch of carrier pigeons, because the carrier pigeons do not fly high, they are easy to be shot down, and they can't fly far, so ordinary and inconsequential messages can be replaced by carrier pigeons." β
The implication is that other secrets can't be used carrier pigeons, and they can't be trusted.
Yan Qing was still itching, "Which is easier, raising carrier pigeons or cockatoos?" β
Yunluo was silent, thinking of the cockatoo raised by the little marquis, it was so pitiful, if he didn't sing a tune to him, there would be nothing to eat, and the cockatoo, for a bite of deliciousness, it is said that he often suspects that the bird is born, and he is deflated and closed by the little marquis every once in a while.
He admittedly said, "It's easier to keep carrier pigeons." β
The main thing is that the carrier pigeon will live easier, and it will not end up in the same situation as the cockatoich, after all, the carrier pigeon does not need to learn to sing songs, and the cockatoo is now raised by the little marquis, even if the bird cage is released, it will only fly around the wall of the Duanjing Waiting Mansion, and will not look outside to see the world.
In particular, the cockatoo flew to the kitchen, and when he saw something delicious, he sang a tune to the cook, and the cook was happy, so he secretly fed it something delicious.
It's made singing music a bird's job!
Yan Qing asked, "Did she raise anything else?" β
Yunluo nodded, "Raised a group of eagle envoys." β
Yan Qing was interested, "What kind of eagle envoy is it?" β
"The Lone Eagle of the Desert."
Yan Qing's eyes lit up, "Isn't this difficult to train?" β
Yunluo nodded, "There are special falconers. β
Yan Qing pondered, "If I ask her for an eagle, will she give it?" β
"Give! Whatever the little marquis wants, the master will give it. Yunluo said affirmatively.
Banquet light: "......"
He was suddenly in a little delicate mood and closed his mouth decisively.
Cheng Chu watched the two of them finish speaking in a low voice, Yan Qing's expression was very strange, he walked over and asked nervously, "Brother Yan, what's wrong?" Is there any change that can't be seen as juggling? β
"No, reassure your heart."
Cheng Chu was relieved, it's good if he didn't.
Today's Guixia Building, up and down inside and out, is very clean, there are no idle people, etc., enjoy the highest level of charter treatment.
The shopkeeper and the young men arranged the banquet and a group of gentlemen to the best viewing position, not to mention, but also carefully prepared melon and fruit refreshments.
Cheng Chu was curious, "Shopkeeper, how much silver does it cost to charter the venue on this day?" β
The shopkeeper paused and held out two fingers.
"Two hundred thousand taels?" Cheng Chu guessed.
The shopkeeper nodded.
Cheng Chu gasped, "Is Gui Xialou so black-hearted?" It's too expensive to charter a day, right? β
The shopkeeper disagreed, "Cheng Gongzi is wrong, Gui Xialou is not black-hearted, 100,000 taels will be given to the Guo family team for one day's appearance fee, and the other 100,000 taels will be used as Gui Xialou for a day, you will have this amount." This is still for Miss Ling's sake, otherwise, two or three hundred thousand taels may not be able to make the Guo family team stay for one more day. The Guo family team is very credit-conscious. β
Cheng Chu closed his mouth, and suddenly felt that 200,000 taels was really not much.
The banquet is seated in the best box, opposite the best nearest stand position.
He sat for a while, and somehow, he suddenly remembered that he heard that Xu Zizhou hadn't been able to book a place for his mother that day.
And Ling Hua went to Jing Zhaoyin's prison every night these days, taught Xu Zizhou to play chess, and pushed him to Jing Zhaoyin's position.
Now he is a high-ranking official in a scarlet robe of the fourth grade, and then he is promoted to Jingzhao Yin Mansion Yin, and he is the youngest third-grade member of Houliang.
His thoughts flashed, and he instructed Duanyang beside him, "You go to Jing Zhaoyin and ask Xu Shaoyin, my fiancΓ©e will charter me to watch the juggling of the Guo family team in Guixia Building, is the old lady of his family willing to come and have a good time?" β
Duanyang was shocked, "Little Hou Ye, when did you have such a good relationship with Xu Shaoyin?" β
Yan raised his eyebrows lightly, "Just because I was assassinated and injured, Xu Shaoyin is investigating this case now?" Shouldn't you show it if it's so hard? β
"Yes, I'll go." Duanyang turned around and went.
Yan Qing suddenly remembered that day when he came out of the Keju field and met Shen Yi'an, the young Shaoqing of Dali Temple was beautiful.
He turned to Cheng Chu and said, "I'll let you start later, you go to Dali Temple?" β
Cheng Chu was frightened, "Brother Yan, what are you asking me to do in Dali Temple?" β
"It's not for you to report the case, it's for you to ask Shen Yi'an, does his brother like to watch juggling? If you love it, come here. β
Cheng Chu was even more frightened, "Brother Yan, are you going to pull Shen Shaoqing's younger brother to be a gentleman?" Don't, Shen Shaoqing loves his brother very much, his brother's body is weak, let's resist falling and fighting, his brother should forget it! If something happens, Shen Shaoqing is a close minister of the Son of Heaven, and his future is immeasurable, so we can't afford to mess with it. β
Yan Qing was speechless, "You think too much, just let his brother come to see a juggler, and don't pull him to be a gentleman." β
Cheng Chu breathed a sigh of relief, but still wondered, "How did you remember that Shen Shaoqing's younger brother was here?" β
The banquet paused lightly, "My fiancΓ©e often goes to Dali Temple to trouble Shen Shaoqing, I think of his goodness, give back one or two, shouldn't it?" β
Cheng Chu: "......"
He hurriedly said, "Yes, yes, brother, I'll go." β
He turned around and pulled a small gentleman at the door and went with him.
When Duanyang arrived at Jing Zhaoyin, he easily met Xu Zizhou, who was investigating Jing Zhaoyin's files on the crimes committed in the green forest over the years.
Hei Thirteen has disappeared since that day when he threw Ling Hua off the second floor of Yanyunfang, Xu Zizhou suspects that he did not go out of Beijing, he must be hiding somewhere in Beijing, but unfortunately, the power of the prince in Beijing is entrenched, and in many places Jing Zhaoyin can't reach out to check.
He thought that Ling Hua probably didn't have to capture the Black Thirteen, and that Ling Hua was only going to deal with the Prince of the East Palace, so these days, playing chess with him, he didn't mention the Black Thirteen, and only used this matter to plot the East Palace and the Wen family, and then plotted the position of Jing Zhaoyin for him.
She really saw it very thoroughly, and she probably knew that in a short period of time, she couldn't hold Black Thirteen, and she couldn't reach out within the scope of the East Palace's influence, so she simply didn't do it.
Duanyang came to look for him, Xu Zizhou was surprised, put down the file, and saw Duanyang.
After Duanyang Daoming came to his senses, Xu Zizhou was also stunned, "This is ...... for the little marquis."
Why?
Could it be that he sensed his thoughts about Miss Ling and came to beat him on purpose? Is Yan Xiaohou such a person?
Duanyang will explain his doubts, "The little marquis said that Xu Shaoyin is working hard to investigate the case now, and the little marquis's injuries all depend on Xu Shaoyin to hold the thief, and the little marquis heard that Xu Shaoyin did not book a place for the old lady at home, and today Guixia Lou is chartered, if the old lady doesn't care about the brothers' trouble, it is better to invite the old lady to join in the fun." β
Xu Zizhou was silent, weighed it in his heart for a moment, and still accepted the banquet and handed it over, "Thank you for the banquet, I will send someone to ask my mother, if she is willing, I will go to Guixia Tower to disturb the little marquis." β
Duanyang nodded, "Xu Shaoyin is polite!" β
At the same time, Cheng Chu went to Dali Temple.
Shen Yi'an, the young secretary of Dali Temple, was discussing with Dali Temple, and listened to the scholar tell Cheng Gongzi to come to find him, Shen Yi'an was also puzzled and walked out of the meeting hall.
Cheng Chu saw Shen Yi'an, scratched his head, and arched his hand, "Shen Shaoqing, Miss Ling gave Brother Yan a charter in Guixia Building to watch the juggling of the Guo family's team, Brother Yan asked me to ask, Shen Shaoqing's younger brother likes to watch juggling, if he likes to watch, go to Guixia Building." β
Shen Yi'an was slightly surprised, "The little marquis specially invited Cheng Gongzi to ask below?" β
"Yes!" Cheng Chu also explained Shen Yi'an's doubts, and added a little child's play by the way, "Brother Yan said, does my sister-in-law often come to Dali Temple to trouble Shen Shaoqing?" Brother Yan borrowed flowers to offer Buddha to repay Shen Shaoqing's personal affection for his sister-in-law? Of course, this favor can't be repaid just by watching a juggler, but take your time, everyone has to help each other. β
Shen Yi'an smiled, "It seems that the little marquis is very satisfied with this marriage?" β
Otherwise, why would he help Ling Hua's favor? Is it really a favor, or did he deliberately let someone tell him that his relationship with the Ling family, Ling Hua had already told him? Is this a gesture?
Cheng Chu nodded, and said again and again, "Satisfied, how good my sister-in-law is, Brother Yan is naturally satisfied, very satisfied!" β
Anyway, the brothers love this sister-in-law very much!
Shen Yi'an smiled and bowed his head, "Okay, thank you for the banquet for the little marquis, and let people send their younger brother to Guixia Tower." β
Cheng Chu's task was completed, and he was very happy that Shen Yi'an gave face, "Okay, we will take good care of Junior Brother Shen, Shen Shaoqing rest assured." β
Shen Yi'an was naturally relieved, if his guess was right, Ling Hua should also go to Guixia Tower to watch juggling with Yan Qing today, with her, his younger brother would naturally not have an accident.
