Chapter 96: Reacquainting Duan Qingshu

"Wait."

Huaiyu interrupted the conversation between the two: "What are you talking about Duan Qingshu?" What is Xianheng Money? ”

Seeing Huaiyu's ignorant look, Pei Ji'an looked at Zhao Yan, and saw that the other party was noncommittal, so he explained to Huaiyu with a smile, "Yan Gongzi concluded that there must be a mystery in Xianheng Qianzhuang, and after arresting Qian Duoduo, he released him, and on the day that Xu's father came to collect Xu Zhibai's body, it was still this kind-hearted Qian boss who contributed money and helped bury Xu Zhibai." ”

"That"

"I am strong in martial arts, and I was used as a coolie to keep an eye on Xianheng Qianzhuang, and I didn't stare at any mysteries, until I stared at an old man." Pei Ji'an made a grievance, Huaiyu had no intention of taking care of his grievances, and only looked at Zhao Yan.

Zhao Yan met Huaiyu's curious gaze and said slowly

"Do you remember that day when we were in Xianheng Qianzhuang, I said that the elegant bedroom was not like a place where Qian Duoduo lived?

That day, Qian Duoduo insisted that the house was his bedroom, but according to the news of Xunyanlou, Qian Duoduo had a two-entry yard on Qianzhuang West Street in Xianheng, raising his concubines and a few rough girls.

"It is true that Qian Zhuang is closed, and he does not go back to Qian Mansion to rest, but he does not rest in the store, but in the small courtyard of West Street, so the bedroom in Xianheng Qian Zhuang that is obviously often cleaned is definitely not his."

After listening to Zhao Yan, Huaiyu understood a little, and asked, "So you pretended to let him go back, and wanted to see who was behind him?" ”

"You can say the same thing."

"Also?"

"Xianheng Qianzhuang is by no means as simple as it seems on the surface, it can still stand safe when the war is in chaos, and it is responsible for the circulation of money and wealth in dozens of large and small cities of Dayou, and the people behind it are either hand-eyed, or rich and rival the country."

"Is it Wang Yun?"

Zhao Yan shook his head: "It's the emperor." ”

Pei Ji'an saw that the two of them were one sentence and one sentence, and the others couldn't even insert a sentence, so he took a sip of hot tea rather helplessly, and forcibly pulled the topic back, "Duan Qingshu has disappeared for more than ten years, why did he suddenly appear in Xiangcheng?" ”

Huaiyu didn't know Duan Qingshu, but Zhao Yan knew.

A few days ago, when Pei Ji'an told him the story of Ji Chen, he mentioned this Duan Qingshu many times, more than ten years ago, he was a stunningly talented and glamorous Dayu Yuanlang, dressed in purple clothes and dashing, a cursive pen swept thousands of troops, and a word was exquisite, which made the students and scholars of many schools in Kyoto, including Feihongkan, admire.

His affection for Ji Chen is known to the whole country.

However, Ji Chen was given a marriage to the eighth prince by the emperor at that time, that is, Emperor Changyou, and after Ji Chen's death, he also disappeared.

Some people say that he went to the Yan Kingdom, some people say that he vomited blood and died, some people say that he lived in seclusion in the mountains and wilderness, and there are different opinions.

Therefore, when Pei Ji'an saw him at first glance, for a moment, he also felt that he was hallucinating.

Zhao Yan muttered, "Why did he suddenly appear in Xiangcheng?" Also went to Xianheng Money Village? ”

"I look at his posture, it doesn't look like he appears there by chance, but it looks like he often stops at Xianheng Qianzhuang."

Why is it that the more you talk about it, the more confusing it becomes?

Several people looked at each other without saying a word.

First, Su Cang was drugged and led out the identities of Qian Duoduo, Xu Zhibai, and Ziying; Then Yunxiao was robbed silently, looking for the wild goose tower to dig three feet into the ground, only one arm was found, or the flaw deliberately left by the other party; Then, Duan Qingshu, the champion of Dayou who disappeared more than ten years ago, appeared inexplicably in Xianheng Qianzhuang

One by one, like a mystery, they led everyone's nose.

The wind and snow outside are tight, and in a few days it will be Chinese New Year's Eve, which is originally a day of family reunion and lively activity, but Huaiyu only feels that the clouds are thick above his head, and he does not see the sun.

"Landlord, Mr. Xu outside the door asks to see you." A maid in Tsing Yi reported respectfully.

Pei Ji'an thought for a while, "Let him come in." ”

Xu Zhibai held the picture scroll in his hand, dressed in a white fox mink fur, filled the wind and snow outside the house, entered the house with a gust of cold wind, first took off his robe and handed it to the maid, and then respectfully bowed to Zhao Yan, and brought the picture scroll in his hand to Zhao Yan

"This is the portrait of Wang Yun that the prince asked me to paint a few days ago, and the weather has been cold recently, and the brush and ink are not moist, I am afraid that there is something unlike."

Zhao Yan unfolded the scroll, only to see the person in the painting dressed in purple, gentle and elegant, Zhao Yan pushed the painting in front of Pei Ji'an, Pei Ji'an was surprised, "How could it be him?" ”

He looked at Xu Zhibai in disbelief: "You painted this, this is Wang Yun?" ”

Xu Zhibai nodded in confusion, although he was afraid that there was something wrong with his own modesty, but for his paintings, Xu Zhibai was still very confident, the people on the paintings were handsome and incomparable, no matter how they looked at it, they were all pleasing to the eye, how could they scare the owner of Xunyan Tower like this?

"I had a close personal relationship with Wang Yun a few years ago, and his outstanding voice and appearance are still memorable.

Pei Ji'an pointed to the portrait, and there was uncontrollable excitement in his voice, "He is Duan Qingshu." ”

Zhao Yan glanced at him, Wang Yun is Duan Qingshu, why are you so excited?

Also, Pei Ji'an calmed down his shocked mood, "Brother Xu Xian, you are really a charcoal in the snow, this painting is too timely!" He looked at Huaiyu and Zhao Yan again, "I'll go to Xianheng Qianzhuang to meet him, and personally ask him if his people captured Yunxiao." ”

"There's no hurry."

Zhao Yan stopped his steps to go out, "No matter how familiar he was with you more than ten years ago, now he is Wang Yun, the leader of the Eagle Alliance, the son of the Prime Minister's Mansion, and the strategist who has privately raised hundreds of thousands of soldiers."

This basin of cold water completely extinguished Pei Ji'an's excitement.

He just suddenly saw the old person, and it was someone related to her, so he didn't manage his emotions well for a while.

Hearing Zhao Yan say this now, Pei Ji'an rarely showed a look of shame, he had lived in vain for thirty years, and he was still so happy and out of shape!

"That? What's next? ”

"No matter who he is, we can only treat him as Wang Yun at the moment." After Zhao Yan finished speaking, he asked again, "Is there no news from Kyoto?" ”

"Not yet."

Zhao Yan was silent for a long time, "You can get something so that Zi Ying can't open your mouth, take Zi Ying tomorrow and go to Xianheng Qian Zhuang to meet Wang Yun." ”

Pei Ji'an immediately understood Zhao Yan's thoughts, and Huaiyu hurriedly said, "I'll go too." ”

"You can't go."

"Why?"

"Wang Yun didn't know that we knew about his private soldiers, but you went to make him wary." Zhao Yan looked at Pei Ji'an, "Moreover, Pei Ji'an, as the owner of Xunyan Tower, personally met with Wang Yun, which has already given him great face, the two of them have old friends, and it is not good to have one more person." ”

Pei Ji'an enjoyed the affirmation from Zhao Yan very much, raised his chin, and made a look that it was indeed the case, he Wang Yun is now just the son of the Prime Minister's Mansion, even if he was Duan Qingshu back then, when he was in infinite glory, Pei Ji'an, as the third son of the Pei family, did not necessarily look down on him.

It's just that he suddenly disappeared back then, but he changed his identity and shrunk in the broken place of Xinxiang, and his nationality was unknown for so long, but now he suddenly appeared again, and he made so many moths again and again.

Pei Ji'an secretly said Wang Yun? Or Duan Qingshu?

It's time to get acquainted again.
