Forbidden city.

Wei Ziyun, the emperor's most trusted guard in Ouchi, the Xiaoxiang swordsman known as the number one master in Ouchi, looked at the many Jianghu guests in front of him who were holding ribbons and preparing to go to the top of the purple gold to watch the battle, and his face turned black.

You must know that the reason why he was going to use this Persian tribute was to use the unique color-changing ribbon of Ouchi as a token for watching the battle, and then pushed the distribution to Lu Xiaofeng, who was quite prestigious on the rivers and lakes, in order to reduce the number of spectators at the top of the Forbidden City as much as possible and reduce the pressure on them, the guards of Ouchi. But now...... All these plans have come to naught! If he can still put on a good face, he will be too heartless.

"What to do? Otherwise...... Keeping them all out? Ding Ao, another commander of the Great Interior, looked at the Jianghu guests below who were holding ribbons and preparing to enter the Forbidden City, and said.

"What are you kidding?" Another master of the inner hall refuted with envy: "Which of the following is not a famous person in the rivers and lakes, they are all blocked outside, do you want to mix in the rivers and lakes in the future?" ”

"What then?" Ding Ao was also unhappy and said: "There are more than 20 people waiting to enter the city below, and there may be those who have not arrived, all of them are put in, what if something goes wrong!" ”

"This ......" Ding Ao said Yin Xian, so he could only turn his gaze to Wei Ziyun, the Xiaoxiang swordsman with the highest status among them and the most trusted by the emperor: "Boss, what should I do?" ”

Wei Ziyun didn't answer directly, but took the lead in asking, "How is the ribbon checked?" ”

Ding Ao, who was asked, was slightly stunned, and then quickly reacted and said directly: "It's all true!" ”

"Let them all in," Wei Ziyun said in a deep voice: "Find someone to inform the second child and let him strengthen his vigilance." ”

"Big brother, this ...... No problem? Ding Ao was still a little hesitant.

"Do we still have a choice?" Wei Ziyun said coldly: "It's not a question of whether we want to let them in now, but we have to let them in!" Otherwise, do you want the royal family to lose its trust to the world! ”

Indeed, although it was Wei Ziyun and the other four people who came up with the method at the beginning, it was also agreed by the current emperor, and this was also widely advertised. Since the ribbons in the hands of all the people holding the tokens are real, they must jump forward even if they know that there is a pit in front of them, otherwise, needless to say, those high-rollers outside who don't know what price they spent to get the ribbon will not spare them even today!

Ding Ao and the others, who were awakened by Wei Ziyun, also knew that the current situation might not be able to help them, so they ordered the people below to open the door to welcome these people in, and at the same time cheered up the spirit of 12 points.

How unreasonable! Ding Ao and others checked the ribbons in the hands of many Jianghu people while letting them go, and at the same time they were full of fire. Where exactly did these people's color-changing ribbons come from? You must know that there are not many of this kind of section, even in the Imperial Palace, and since this section was designated as a token of attack, all of them have been guarded by the four of them in turn, and they have never slackened, how did it spread!

"Lu Xiaofeng," Ding Ao, who was checking the ribbon, couldn't hold back his temper and grabbed the other party after seeing Lu Xiaofeng, and asked in a cold voice, "What is the situation?" ”

Lu Xiaofeng was also at a loss at this time, looking at the pile of people holding ribbons in front of him, he knew that these ribbons were flooded like this, what was he doing so hard? It's a duel with someone again, and it's a fight with someone to see if the other party is qualified to enter the top of the Forbidden City to watch the battle. If you had known that this would have been the case, it would have been better to sell these ribbons for a good price!

"Where the hell did you get your ribbon?" Finally, Lu Xiaofeng still couldn't bear the question in his heart, broke free of Ding Ao's hands and directly stopped a high-roller who had thought about buying a ribbon by himself, wanting to know where the ribbon in the other party's hand came from.

How could the high-roller who was stopped answer Lu Xiaofeng's question, you must know that when he begged the other party, Lu Xiaofeng slapped him in the face. So he didn't pay attention to Lu Xiaofeng, but directly missed a step, handed the ribbon in his hand to Ding Ao and said coldly: "Check it." ”

Lu Xiaofeng, who was ignored, froze directly in place, wanting to stop the other party again, but felt that it was really a little shameless, so he was embarrassed for a while.

Fortunately, at this time, someone solved his embarrassment, that is, he was carrying large bags and small bags, bench melon seeds, fine wine, etc., such as Xie Feihong and others who came to the spring outing more than watched the game.

"You're asking about ribbons," Xie Feihong said: "I don't know how others came, mine was bought with money when I went out for a walk yesterday, a total of 5, a total of more than 40,000 taels of silver, it can be regarded as buying 4 and getting 1 free, and finally the other party also gave a small gift by the way." ”

Xie Feihong's answer not only relieved Lu Xiaofeng's embarrassment but also answered Lu Xiaofeng's question, so Lu Xiaofeng couldn't help but cast a grateful look. However, the swordsman who was asking Ding Ao to check the ribbon had a rather unkind face, and directly turned his head and said, "What? Your 5 ribbons only cost more than 40,000 taels! And the other party also gave a gift! ”

"yes, what? Do you spend a lot? Xie Feihong's faint words pierced a piece of people's hearts.

The swordsman also said that he didn't want to talk to Xie Feihong, because Xie Feihong's invisible pretense was really annoying! You must know that he spent more than 60,000 taels of silver on the ribbon in his hand alone, while Xie Feihong's 5 ribbons were only more than 40,000 taels. Although he didn't care about the money spent, he ...... How can there be so many gaps between people!

The other people who heard Xie Feihong's answer also looked quite unkind, because although the money they spent was different, it was also not less than 50,000 taels, and if they didn't compare it, they might not say anything. But compared with Xie Feihong, it is simply heartwarming!

Those who can afford more than 50,000 taels of silver to buy the top of the Forbidden City are basically not poor money owners, but now it is not a matter of money, but face! So they all made up their minds one after another, not to find him the person who made them grateful and sold them ribbons, otherwise they would definitely give this person a good look!

Not to mention the many Jianghu customers who feel that they have lost money, Lu Xiaofeng focuses on another aspect. That is, the ribbon in their hands was bought with money, so they couldn't help but stare at Wei Ziyun and Ding Ao and the others, waiting for the other party to explain to themselves, after all, the ribbon was provided by them.

Facing Lu Xiaofeng, who was staring at him menacingly, even Ding Ao, who had the most violent temper, showed a trace of unnatural expression, because now it was obvious that the basket must be on their side.

"Brother Ziyun, what's going on?" Lu Xiaofeng directly crossed over to Ding Ao and asked Wei Zi, the head of all of them.

"I want to know too," Wei Ziyun said helplessly.

He didn't figure out what went wrong, but now one thing is certain, that is, the seller of ribbons has made a lot of money! So many ribbons, even if it is 10,000 taels for two months, it is more than 200,000 taels. What's more, according to his observation, the unnatural expressions of many Jianghu high-rollers just after Xie Feihong finished speaking, it can be seen that the real number is far more than that.

And he also heard some rumors in the rivers and lakes, and many high-rollers in the rivers and lakes were asking to buy ribbons, and the price was not less than 50,000 taels. So, this ribbon seller has a big hair! Even if he looked at these coins, his eyes were red!

Not to mention these small episodes at the gate of the Forbidden City, inside the palace, Ye Gucheng, who was in the back seat of a side hall, was wiping the sword in his hand, holding his edge.

At this moment, the door of the side hall opened, and a father-in-law walked in and said respectfully to Ye Gucheng: "City Lord Ye, everything is ready." ”

Ye Gucheng couldn't help but pause slightly when he heard this, and a cold glint flashed in his eyes: "Then let's start!" ”
