Chapter Ninety-Four: Blue-Eyed Earth Venerable, Huangwei Tower

The two hurriedly went downstairs to greet each other, and Xuan Yue saluted: "Young Master Lin, Young Master Xiao, Miss Lu, the three of you are here, it really makes the Nightless Immortal Palace shine!" ”

As soon as the words fell, someone among the guests whispered: "It turned out to be Lin Daiyu, the young master of the Lin family who came back from the dead!" I heard that the husband of the Lin family was killed by the side husband......"

Or exclaimed: "There is also Xiao Ying, the young master of Judantang, even she is here!" ”

Hearing the discussion, Lin Daiyu smiled and said: "Prince Xuanyue doesn't have to be polite, we and Menghan are both bosom friends and sworn sisters, you are going to marry our boss in the future, you can't look at us out!" ”

Chu Han was surprised in his heart, what? She also approves of swearing?

She glanced at Lu Qi, Lu Qi shook the folding fan, with a natural smile on his face, his attitude was not clear, he must not be willing in his heart, after all, among the four people, except for Xiao Ying and Lin Daiyu's identities are slightly transparent, Lu Qi is as mysterious as herself, especially after exploring the sun and the mountain at night.

She thought that Lu Qi was a military enthusiast, and there was a high chance that she would enter the army as a general or something in the future, but she didn't expect that there would be this hand, like a magic stick, which made her puzzled and unpredictable.

Such a woman who seems to have more secrets than herself, really wants to worship together, don't say whether Lu Qi is willing or not, she also has to think about it carefully.

When the guests heard Lin Daiyu's words, they had another reaction: bowed? Chu Menghan is still the boss?

That Lin young lord is a relative of the city lord Xiao, I heard that this Lin Mansion incident, Xiao was furious for the tragic death of his younger brother, and personally led people to detain the poisoning murderer in the Lin Mansion, the head of the Lin family felt ashamed of the deceased husband, hit the wall and attempted suicide, and later wrote a letter of resignation, willing to be grounded in the house by Lord Xiao, and handed over the power of the house to Lin Daiyu.

So nominally, although Lin Daiyu has not officially succeeded to the position of head of the family, he is already the de facto head of the family.

For the imperial court, the city lord is a small official with a big sesame bean, but for the locality, it is the emperor of the land who dominates one side, and the county town and the county and countryside under her jurisdiction can be under her control. As long as she pays taxes on time and in full, completes the tasks of the court, and does not offend her boss or block the way of other people's promotion and wealth, she is rarely transferred.

And City Lord Xiao has always taken good care of this only niece and responded to her needs.

Now that she actually recognizes Chu Menghan as the boss, doesn't it mean that this Nightless Immortal Palace will be covered by her in the future?

Obediently, the backstage of the Nightless Immortal Palace is big!

Xiao Ying laughed and said, "Boss, today Daiyu brought her own self-brewed ten-mile peach blossom brew, let's hurry upstairs, I'm about to die of hunger!" ”

Lin Daiyu smiled: "It's as if I abuse you so much!" ”

"Isn't that abuse?" Xiao Ying exaggerated and exclaimed, "Since I dug it out, I only let me smell the wine, and I had to wait for the boss to open the altar before giving it to me. Boss, you say, is she biased and abused? ”

Chu Han smiled: "Lu Qi didn't speak, just you are yelling." Okay, the crying child has milk to drink, and you will drink enough for a while. ”

"Poof!" Seeing that Xiao Ying's face was getting more and more puffy, not to mention the guests, even Xuan Yue beside her burst into laughter.

The group politely went upstairs, and the hall on the first floor was buzzing, full of talk about the gathering of the giants of Xunfang City.

Chu Han's food has never been handled by the small maid or maid in the building, the bustard's father brought a table of good dishes, Chu Han was asked to pat the mud and open the altar, and sure enough, the wine was drunk for ten miles, so he immediately asked Xuanyue to call Qianyu and Qianruo, who were resting after bathing.

As soon as Qianru came, the worry-free twitter also followed, and when he entered the door, he shouted that he was almost dizzy!

Knowing that Qingqiu cared about the two brothers, after coming back, Chu Han said that he had nothing to tell and asked her to rest, the guy calmly retreated, went out and turned around to look at her Qiuyin Qiucicada urgently. At this time, the wine and food were served, and Chu Han still asked people not to disturb her good deeds.

After pouring the wine, Lin Daiyu first saluted Chu Han, and then saluted Xiao Ying and Lu Qi.

Chu Han is her life-saving benefactor, but if there is no Xiao Ying, she would not be able to know Chu Han, and Lu Qi is the best friend who knows her earliest and accompanies her the longest.

Everyone was drinking and chatting, Chu Han noticed that Lu Qi deliberately glanced at her hand, and a trace of doubt flashed on her face.

She knew that as Lu Qi, who was familiar with the Stone Lotus Formation in the dry pool, she must want to ask why her hand was not scarred at all.

In fact, she didn't expect that the potion she soaked from childhood to adulthood could not only keep the body from poison, but also allow the wound to heal quickly, which she found in the secret cave of Yangjia Mountain, which really surprised her, but she could only remain silent, anyway, no one saw her fingers being pierced with three stone needle holes, as long as she didn't say it, no one knew.

Seeing her well-balanced fingers, it was no wonder that Lu Qi was puzzled. Perhaps, she even had the slightest doubt about her judgment of the dry pond stone lotus formation.

Speaking of the city lord of Tiger City cutting the year, Xuan Yue said with a smile, according to the grapevine, that Jiannian is also unlucky, and he hasn't covered the heat after the cheats are in hand, and he was actually approached by the people of the Phoenix Guard Tower in Kyoto and asked him to hand it in immediately.

There was no way, in the face of the people in Huangweilou, she didn't dare to resist at all, and obediently handed it over, and after hearing that the people left, she was so angry that she spit out two mouthfuls of old blood!

When everyone heard this, they were all surprised, Xiao Ying said, the efficiency is so high, isn't the secret guard of this Phoenix Guard Tower pervasive? In this way, it is really much more terrible than the beggars in the north and south!

Lin Daiyu frowned: "Could it be that my aunt's city lord's mansion also has people from the Huangwei Tower?" ”

Lu Qi shook his fan: "I think you are thinking too much." ”

"What do you mean by that?" Lin Daiyu asked.

Lu Qi only shook his head and said nothing.

"Can't you say that?" It's about my aunt, Lin Daiyu always wants to hear some useful news.

"Look at Dai Yu in a hurry!" Xiao Ying said, "It's all my own people here, and no one will spread it out much." ”

Chu Han said: "Don't be reluctant, if you can, just talk to Daiyu alone when you go back, we know it's not much use." ”

"How can I not trust your character and wisdom," Lu Qi looked at Wuwu, "It's just that Wuwu is too young and doesn't have much scheming, I'm afraid that he will leak his mouth outside one day." ”

Chu Han looked at Wuwu, and Wuwu immediately widened his wet eyes and pretended to be pitiful: "Sister Chu wants to drive Wu'er out of the door alone?" I won't say that...... If Sister Chu plugs my ears with cotton cloth strips, can't I just eat and not listen......"

Why are you so greedy...... Chu Han raised his forehead, "I'll take him out, and we'll come in after you finish speaking." ”

"That's it," Lu Qi stopped his fan, "Actually, I also heard it from a small way, I don't know if it's true or not, it's a secret, you can listen to it together." ”

To be honest, Chu Han didn't want to hear what others didn't want to say, sometimes it's better not to know than to know about the affairs of the court.

But before she could speak again, Lu Qi had already spoken: "When I was in the capital, I heard that Huangweilou had secret strongholds in various state cities and some county towns, but there was only one stronghold.

When there is nothing to do, the base store is open for business, ordinary and ordinary; When the news is obtained, it depends on the situation, and if necessary, it will be secretly dispatched once.

They either have a good skill or a good horse, and they will arrive at the office as soon as possible.

But the specific person who provided the information was not necessarily hiding in the various city lords' mansions, such as this time, the biggest possibility was that there were their wanderers among the scattered cultivators that day. ”

"Wanderer?" Xiao Ying was puzzled.

"Wandering detectives are secret agents who wander in various cities and counties or in the martial arts of rivers and lakes, but they are usually not directly subordinate to Huangweilou, let alone from Huangweilou, but Huangweilou authorizes them to each stronghold, and they recruit reliable people by themselves, pay a very low basic salary, and once they provide information, they will pay different levels of high commissions according to the importance and utilization value of the news."

Through Lu Qi's explanation, Chu Han learned in more detail that there are two organizational departments in the Huangwei Building, the Ming Building and the Dark Building.

The people cultivated from the Ming Tower are assigned to two places, one is to patrol the palace guards, specifically around the emperor's former palace and harem to inspect the major halls; The second is the imperial guard, that is, the personal guard, whose trust in front of the emperor is one level higher than that of the palace guard.

As for the dark building, they are the secret guards who never show their faces in front of people, and they are only ordered by the emperor and are not sent and transferred by anyone other than the emperor.

Except for the emperor himself, no one knew about them, and many people didn't even know that they existed in this world, especially the people living outside Kyoto.

And their role, in addition to cooperating with Ming Wei to protect the emperor in secret, the other things they have to do are unspeakable.

After Lu Qi's words, Lin Daiyu breathed a sigh of relief, thinking about how terrifying and weird it would be if there was a pair of eyes in the city lord's mansion and staring at his aunt all day for the emperor.

"By the way, Sister Chu, we didn't seem to meet Master Gu on the road today to send money!" Carefree suddenly remembered.

"Don't worry," Chu Han said, "because we disturbed Liuhuo, let her postpone it for another day." ”

As he was talking, the bustard's father came to report that the leader of the Qinghe Gang Cao came to visit with a heavy gift.

This Cao gang leader, Chu Han has heard Xuanyue say, it is a man, he is in his forties, he doesn't know what is wrong with his body, and he didn't give birth to a daughter until he was in his thirties.

So for this daughter, it hurts on the tip of her heart, and she doesn't dare to pick the stars if she wants the moon.

But fortunately, his father and mother are strict, and his wife is not 100% pampered to his children, and the basic martial arts skills of squatting and standing on a pile must be practiced. For this reason, the wife and husband did not quarrel less.

With a child, the two of them have restrained themselves in their style of acting, and they are afraid that vendetta and murder will affect their daughter.

Therefore, for the forces that are stronger than them, if they can not provoke, they will not provoke, and the Yeye Immortal Palace, as the most powerful existence in the Xunfangcheng business district, has never been collected by them for protection, and gradually, Xuanyue has not paid more attention to the Qinghe Gang, but I really don't know what he wants to do this time.

"Invite him to Xuanyue's VIP room, and I'll be here in a moment." Chu Han said.

"Yes." The bustard's father responded and went downstairs.

Xiao Ying snorted: "Bully the soft and fear the hard things!" ”

Lu Qi smiled: "Received your Judantang's protection fee?" ”

Xiao Ying only hummed and didn't answer. Xuan Yue said with a smile: "Young Master Xiao's family has a big business, so naturally he is not afraid of them, but he just spends money to buy peace."

The main source of finance for the Qinghe Gang is still those businessmen with small assets.

For ordinary middle-level or small businessmen who do not have the force to support them, they are not afraid of the government.

The government came to trouble them, but it was just a matter of spending money, and it was just a matter of going up and down.

But what they can't afford to provoke the most is the gangs like the Qinghe Gang.

Doing business pays attention to harmony and making money, and when you encounter a gang that is brave and ruthless, if you are offended, you may not be able to eliminate the disaster, and people have a hundred ways to kill you, even if you don't want your life, you can make it so that you can't get mixed here. ”
