Chapter 166: Being Pit
The two people who were hiding next to the stalls along the street saw Wen Zhi walking in their direction, and quickly turned their heads to pretend to look at the goods on the stalls.
The vendors who set up stalls along the street were much more enthusiastic than the guys in the shops, and when they saw someone looking at his goods, they immediately got up from the resting stool, looked at the two of them with a smile and said: "The two guest officers are really good eyes, these two are the best two jade bracelets in this stall, buy them back and give them to the girl you like!"
The two looked down and saw that one of them had just grabbed a jade bracelet and held it in his hand in a hurry.
"We don't want it!" The two of them put down the bracelet together in unison.
The smile on the vendor's face faded away, and it quickly solidified into ice ballast.
"Cut, if you don't have money to buy it, you don't have any money, what kind of uncle are you pretending!"
"What do you say, you say it again?" The Assassin's accomplices approached with a ferocious look.
"What are you going to do?" The peddler quickly took a few steps back, looked around vigilantly, and said, "I can remind you, this is near the Chenwang Mansion, and it is bright in broad daylight, what do you want to do?" ”
Listening to what he meant, he used the Chenwang Mansion as a protective shield. I don't know how King Chen himself knows that he still has this role, what should he feel in his heart?
In fact, this is an unwritten habit in Shangcheng, because King Chen's prestige is outside, no one dares to provoke, so even if someone provokes trouble, he does not dare to be presumptuous near King Chen's Mansion, so the hawkers in a few streets near Chenwang's Mansion are equivalent to having a "backer" and have great courage!
The assassin grabbed his companion and half-persuaded and half-warned him: "Forget it, don't do anything bad!"
He gestured in the direction of Wenzhi, and was seen by the clever peddler.
After staying in the upper city for a long time, he was used to seeing this kind of scene, and he knew at a glance that the two of them were following the son in front of him.
The peddler looked at the two and smiled, "The two of you are with the boy in front, right?"
"How much is this bracelet, we bought it!" The assassin pulled his companion and asked the vendor in displeasure.
"Buy both!" The vendor bargained.
"Buy both!" The assassin gritted his teeth.
The peddler breathed a sigh of relief, showed a leisurely smile, raised his two hands and spread ten fingers: "Ten taels!"
"Why don't you grab it?" The Assassin's accomplices couldn't help it, breaking free from the Assassin's grip, but they didn't dare to do anything excessive.
The peddler looked in the direction of Wen Zhi and smiled leisurely: "Why don't I call that boy to come over and help the two of you take a look, are these two bracelets worth the price?"
"Okay, we bought it!" The Assassin reluctantly took off the money bag, and then took off his companion's money bag and threw it at the vendor's stall, saying, "This is all our money, and there is no way to do it if we don't have enough!" ”
While counting the money in the money bag, the peddler nodded and said, "The little one is not a person who has to pay an inch, take the bracelet well!"
The Assassin and his companion held two useless bracelets, holding their breath.
His companion looked at the assassin and said angrily: "It's you who told me not to act rashly, now that his sister has entered the Chenwang Mansion, what should I do?"
"What's the hurry, isn't he still here? It's useless if we want his sister, just run one and run! "In fact, the assassin was also very panicked, he didn't expect Wen Jin to be the maid of the Chenwang Mansion, if he caught Wen Zhi at this time, he would have something to do with the Chen Wangfu, but if he didn't catch Wen Zhi at this time, he might not have such a good opportunity in the future!
"You mean we'll ...... first," his companion winked in the direction of Wen Zhi.
"Hmm!"
The two had not gone far when the vendor suddenly caught up with them with a smile on his face.
"Stay together!"
"Don't go too far!" The Assassin looked at him warily.
He smiled like this just now, and as a result, he went bankrupt!
"The two of you misunderstood, misunderstood!" The peddler hurriedly took out the money bag that the two had just given him, and returned it with both hands, "The little one has eyes and doesn't know Mount Tai, I don't know that the two turned out to be people from the Chenwang Mansion, and the small one has no less light in the Chenwang Mansion when he sets up a stall here on weekdays, since the two adults are passing by, the small bracelet should only be given as a gift, where do you dare to collect money?" ”
The two of them were confused - when did they say that they were from the Chenwang Mansion?
But people come to pay back, don't be stupid!
If you think about it carefully, it should be that he listened to the conversation they just had just now, but he didn't listen to it really, he only heard the words "Chenwangfu", and thought they were from Chenwangfu.
Fearing that they would not take the money, the peddler shoved the money bag into their hands and returned to his stall with a smile as he retreated.
No matter how bold he is, he doesn't dare to pit the people of the Chen Palace!
The assassin and his companions were finally a little happier, and followed Wen Zhi all the way to a place where no one was, knocking him unconscious and tying him up.
……
In the dark secret room, the master smashed a cup of hot tea and tea and water at the two people who were kneeling on the ground.
The hot tea made the knees of the two of them tingle, but the two of them did not dare to say a word.
"It seems that I really expect too much from you, and you are useless to me!"
Before the words could be spoken, the two of them felt a chill behind them,—— the other two assassins who were standing behind him suddenly drew their swords and stabbed them into their bodies.
The two of them had dilated pupils and fell to the ground without breath.
"Go, let him go!" The master's tone was unfazed, as if the scene just now was not two people dead, but two vases were broken.
"Yes!" The two Assassins stepped forward, chills under their feet.
They were standing in about the same position as the two Assassins who had just died, and they felt like they had become them.
"Seeing your confused appearance, I will tell you that they said that some people teased them but did not kill them, not to deter them, but to deliberately lead them to know that Wen Jin was the maid appointed in King Chen's mansion."
He poured another cup of new tea, took a sip and sighed: "Wen Jin is telling me that he handed over that thing to Wen Jin and brought it into the Chenwang Mansion!" Once something happens to him, that thing will be handed over to King Chen by Wen Jin! Those two things will also be caught by Wen Zhi in an attempt to offset the merits, do you say stupid? ”
"Stupid!" The two Assassins replied in unison, but put themselves in their shoes, thinking that if they were to be them, they would probably do the same thing.
They knew that Wen Zhi had a sick sister, but they didn't know that Wen Zhi's sister was actually a maid in King Chen's mansion!
The maids in the Chenwang Mansion have always been kept secret from the outside world, and only after entering the Chenwang Mansion will outsiders know who the maid is.
Unexpectedly, Wen Zhi salted fish turned over, and actually found King Chen as a "backer"!
That's hard to guard!
"Go ahead, don't let me down again!" The owner said calmly.
He wasn't harsh, but the Assassins knew that his tone didn't show anger, and he was calmer than usual when he killed!
"Yes!" The two dragged them out of the dark room.
……
At dusk, Wen Zhi was woken up by the evening breeze, and when he opened his eyes, he was lying at the foot of the mountain not far from his home!
