The excitement dissipated, and the arrival of Lord Jian made Xiangxiang feel that the cold palace seemed to become brighter. When she performed in Jian's Mansion, the old marquis's words made her very chilled, but she was also used to seeing the cold faces of the nobles of the Gaomen, and she was not so lost that she was about to collapse, but the young Jian Feng stood up to speak for them, Xiangxiang felt at that time that he had made the entire Jian Mansion more noble, and Lord Jian stood at the bottom, but it was majestic.

She told Concubine Xian these words, and Concubine Xian laughed and listened to it as a joke, took Xiangxiang's hand and said, "This child is an outlier of the Jian family. Jianfu is a family of writers, since Taizu Taizong, there are emperors from their families from generation to generation, to be the emperor's teacher, naturally to be the world's teacher, thousands of protégés in the house are all over the country, from the imperial family and nobles, down to the common people. There is no one in their family as an official, only the hereditary repetitive duke title, the first emperor once gave a plaque "the teacher of the world", and now it is still hanging in the ancestral hall of the Jian family, but the Jian family is gradually thin, to Jian Feng's father's generation, his uncle died young, and it is already a single biography. And his father had countless wives and concubines, and only got Jian Feng, an only son, a child raised by the old marquis like a baby, but he did not inherit the family style, and went to the household department to be an official, and lived with gold and silver all day long. ”

Xiangxiang listened with interest and said with a smile: "Niangniang knows these things? ”

Concubine Xian bowed: "Hao'er will tell me about the situation in the court, naturally he didn't mention who his friends are, but I know a little about the situation of each of the six departments of the court." ”

Xiangxiang admired: "Then how many people do you have to remember, you and Qi Hui are too powerful." ”

Concubine Xian smiled: "A set of dance steps, a hundred thousand changes, you also remember it clearly, but you have a specialization in the art industry, if you have a mind in the future, ......"

At this point, Concubine Xian smiled and didn't continue, pretending to cough a few times, and then stopped mentioning it. She originally wanted to say that Xiangxiang Hui is good at understanding, and if she faces the court side by side with Qi Hui in the future, she will definitely be able to learn if she has the heart to learn. But now that they are leaving, far away from the court and away from the capital, Xiangxiang doesn't have to learn these anymore, so why should she mention it and let Xiangxiang worry about it.

Xiangxiang didn't notice Concubine Xian's thoughts, and was pleased with Jian Feng's appearance. She has been in and out of countless high-ranking families, and has seen countless nobles, rich people, and even royal relatives, and she has seen all the warmth and coldness of people, which can make her feel that the upper world is a beautiful and clear person, and there are only a handful, but she didn't expect that Lord Jane, who was most impressed, turned out to be Qi Hui's friend. After she cared more and more about her relationship with Qi Hui, she would think back to the process of their meeting and acquaintance from time to time, everything was so wonderful, and now counting Master Jian and Xi Niang, she really began to believe in fate.

And Qi Hui also felt amazing about this, and then looked at Jian Feng with strange eyes all the way, Jian Feng felt a burst of hostility rushing to his face, and finally couldn't help but say: "Don't say that a gentleman doesn't take people's favor, I know Xiangxiang earlier than you, if I have the love of a child, I still have to rob you now?" Don't just look at me at every turn, the World Summit is cranky, he misunderstood. ”

Qi Hui had already ignored him, and Shi Feng came up and asked, "What did I misunderstand?" ”

Jian Feng said seriously: "Didn't your eldest brother say last time that a young man with strong blood and strength is messing with men all day long, are you afraid that you are as good as Longyang?" ”

Shi Feng was so angry that he wanted to beat him, Qi Hui stopped in front of him and said, "Where did you get the spirit to talk nonsense with him?" ”

Jian Feng's nonsense provoked both of them to ignore him, but he happily followed up and said: "You have to admit that I am still very useful, I found out an incident twenty years ago, do you want to hear it?" ”

Qi Hui and Shi Feng continued to walk forward, they were both people who had practiced martial arts since childhood, and Jian Feng was a weak son who was raised in a deep house, so that he was panting, and when he was bending down to breathe, Qi Hui and Shi Feng suddenly retreated and dragged him into a hidden place in the corner, he opened his mouth to ask what was wrong, but Shi Feng covered his mouth tightly, and he almost couldn't slow down in one breath.

The emperor in front sat on his shoulders and walked slowly, hugging hundreds of people in front of him, and finally dispersed, Qi Hui stood by the mouth and watched for a while, Shi Feng saw that Jian Feng's legs were weak and fell, and scolded him for not being able to follow up with the palace, Jian Feng said angrily: "I'm not afraid, I was almost suffocated to death by you." ”

Qi Hui turned around and said, "Let's leave as soon as possible, this is not a place to mess around." ”

Jian Feng was not convinced, and slowly got up, "I'm not a three-year-old child, I'm the only official in the Jian family." ”

Shi Feng sneered, but unexpectedly, Jian Feng said something that shocked both him and Qi Hui, only to see him say solemnly: "I was in a hurry to enter the palace to tell you that twenty years ago, the Mu family disappeared overnight, and the entire imperial treasury silver also disappeared overnight. But the huge man turned the tide in three days, not only to make the treasury silver running again, but also to whitewash the peace, and almost no one knew about it. I don't think even he knows. ”

Jian Feng pointed to the direction in which the emperor left, this he obviously meant the emperor, and he asked Shifeng: "Your father must know about the Mu family, you haven't noticed anything special for so many years?" ”

Shi Feng was choked, if the disappearance of the Mu family was really inseparable from his father, there was another obstacle between him and Qi Hui, as if God had made people, the most cherished brothers and best friends, but there were so many troubles between each other that could not be changed.

Jian Feng changed his cynical temperament, became serious and heroic, and said seriously: "The Mo family has nothing to do with these, you can eradicate it with confidence, just to deal with the prime minister." He glanced at Qi Hui and then at Shifeng: "You have to be more cautious, take a hair and move your whole body, who knows how big a wave it will be." ”

The three of them continued to move forward, no longer joking with each other, Shi Feng also said: "Some time ago, a large number of strange things were seized in the capital, most of which are sharp weapons that are enough to kill, and the craftsmen who make them must be well versed in the way of mechanisms, Qi Hui, have you ever wondered if it will be the reappearance of the Mu family?" ”

Jian Feng took out the same thing from his arms as he gave Qi Hui last time, and flashed a sharp awl, Shi Feng was curious where he got it, Jian Feng was proud again, and said that he could eat well in the six departments, and many officials in the six departments were still his junior disciples or even apprentices.

Qi Hui's one had already been given to Xiang Xiang, he took it from Jian Feng's hand and looked at it carefully, and said in a deep voice: "Most of my understanding of the Mu family is from Shifeng's father and my mother, or I heard some legends from other places, but I don't know as much as you think, after all, I haven't even seen anyone." But I remember that my mother once said that the Mu family strictly forbade any of their children to make weapons without permission, let alone support people outside the court to make weapons. ”

Shi Feng said: "But all the tricks in the world come from the Mu family, who has the ability to make such a delicate and fierce weapon?" ”

They didn't have an answer to each other, and after leaving the palace, Jian Feng mentioned that he had seen something new, saying that where the Qinglou in the capital gathered, someone threw money one night. To say that that night, Qi Hui was on the spot, and Shi Feng knew all the news of the Closed Moon Pavilion, only Jian Feng, who didn't even know where the door of the Qinglou was open, felt fresh.

When Jian Feng was talking with relish, Shi Feng said lightly: "I have already checked the details of that person, do I want you to remind me?" He told Qi Hui that this generous man was nothing special, the ancestors of the family were doing business in the northeast, and the money was opened all over the country, and the little silver was just a fur.

He turned his words to Jian Feng again: "You have been in the household department for so many years, and you have no bottom in your heart for the money village in the world?" ”

This was originally a matter that had nothing to do with it, but it eased the atmosphere between the three of them, they went to the military department to deal around, Qi Hui knew in his heart that whether he was against the emperor, the prince or Pang Jun, he needed to thoroughly understand the strength of the country.

As for the matter of the rich man, Shi Feng sent someone to keep an eye on it, and there will always be another result, and he didn't talk about it between the three of them for a while, but after this man disappeared for a while, he appeared again.

This night, the closed moon pavilion did not do business, closed the door to settle the last month's business, those girls who did not do well and made less money, had to be punished by the old bustard, Xi Niang sat upstairs and listened to the crackling sound below, as well as the crying and shouting, and felt irritable. But this is the rule of the Qinglou, and when she was a teenager, she also came over like this.

This commotion, it's going to be the middle of the night, she was bored looking at the bustle of other houses outside the building, and suddenly felt a silence around her, the beating movement and crying were gone, and she didn't know what was happening downstairs, as if everything had stopped.

She got up and walked out of the door, and saw more than a dozen girls brushing to thank a man, the old bustard greedily held a plate of silver tickets on the side, it seemed that someone came to fill the silver for the girls, and as soon as the man looked up, Xi Niang frowned slightly, it was him again?

Xi Niang turned around and entered the door, not wanting more than a dozen people to come in outside, so the two of them carried a box and filled the hall downstairs.

The old bustard and the girls had to squeeze in the corner, only to see the man smile slightly, and more than a dozen people opened the box at the same time, and suddenly the golden light was dazzling, and the closed moon building was full of brilliance.

"It's gold!" The girls cried out in surprise, and the old bustard was almost stunned, and wanted to reach out and touch it, but was rejected by the subordinates who carried the box, and they said, "This is the money for my young master, to buy fat powder for Oiran Xi Niang." ”

So much gold was used to buy rouge gouache, and you had to hold your chin to hear this, and the old bustard immediately climbed upstairs, shouting and shouting Xi Niang's name, asking her to come out to meet the guests.

The man at the bottom smiled and said: "There are a thousand taels of gold here, please Xi Niang smile." ”

Xi Niang stood high on the platform, raised her shawl indifferently, turned around and said, "Then weigh it piece by piece, it's really enough for a thousand taels, let's talk about it." ”

The old bustard climbed halfway, and he was stupid when he heard Xi Niang's words, so much gold, when will he go?
