Chapter 130: An Open Secret

"You've found the whereabouts of that token?"

Tao Jinyan narrowed a pair of peach blossom eyes slightly, and his gaze fell on Chu Nian's still perfect smiling face, as if he wanted to find any flaws in this smiling face.

But obviously, Chu Nian disappointed him.

Seeing Tao's suspicions, Chu Nian just smiled lightly and drank tea, without the slightest intention of answering his question positively, and said vaguely: "Didn't you approach me just to get the secrets of the royal family?" ”

Tao Jinyan looked at her fixedly, and suddenly smiled: "If I want to get the secret of the royal family, why don't I go directly to find a princess, the third princess and the fifth princess, which one is not much easier to deceive than you." ”

He proudly lifted his sideburns and put his fingers on his chin: "Don't you think it's easy to capture the heart of a princess with the handsome appearance of this son?" ”

Chu Nian raised his eyebrows, "The third princess and the fifth princess won't know the secret you want." ”

"Then I'll go to lust and lure Ming Xiu." Peach said that the jar was broken.

The atmosphere suddenly fell into embarrassment, Chu Nian looked at Tao Jinyan with a smile: "If you use your posture to color and lure Ming Xiu, maybe it can really be done, then that's it, I'll go, you go directly to Ming Xiu." ”

After saying that, Chu Nian got up, as if he had really made up his mind to ask Tao Jinyan to find Ming Xiu, and at this time, Tao Jinyan felt that his face was a little unbearable: "Stop!" Aren't you afraid that Ming Xiu will really run away with me? ”

Chu Nian raised his eyebrows: "It's also your ability that Ming Xiuzhen ran away with you." ”

"Besides, don't say whether Xiu likes men or not, if you are really together, I bless you."

Chu Nian looked at Tao Jinyan sincerely, and there was no trace of abuse in his eyes, Tao Jinyan jumped to his feet in anger, and drank a big sip of tea, "Forget it, I won't be poor with you, let's talk about it, which manor do you want." ”

Seeing that he was going to make his words clear, Chu Nianqian smiled and sat down, she picked up the teacup and took a sip: "I'm afraid you don't want to agree." ”

Tao said calmly: "What you want will not be ......"

"Moon Capture Villa."

Tao Jinyan's face turned pale, he looked at Chu Nian's slow tea tasting, angry and funny: "You save trouble, you have gained such an ally of the Tao family, and you have a manor, so you really can't easily do business with your woman." ”

After hiding for so long and not taking over the position of the head of the Tao family, the Tao family is in trouble at this moment, if he happens to go back, he will inevitably be sent to the position of the head of the family as a savior, and at that time, he will have no chance to hide anymore.

If he doesn't go back, then the Moon Villa will ......

Tao Jinyan's face was a little distorted, and he stood up and paced left and right in the small gazebo with his hands behind his back.

Chu Nian raised his eyes and looked at him.

"Aren't you looking for that token for the Tao family?"

Tao Jinyan glanced at her and said, "Not only for the Tao family, but also for myself." ”

As he spoke, he raised his head a little proudly and said, "If there is such a person, who is not a person in the martial arts or a person in the imperial court, but can command the entire martial arts, how much feeling?" ”

Chu Nian raised his eyebrows, "Are you sure that a person who doesn't even have the ability to protect himself will be ordered to use martial arts?" Or does he dare to show the token? ”

The husband is innocent and guilty, but I am afraid that I don't know how he will die when the time comes.

Tao Jinyan corrected dissatisfied, "Martial arts, self-preservation, no one dares to move with the reputation of the Tao family." ”

"Will the Tao family recognize a young family head who evades his responsibilities when the family is in danger?"

Tao was stunned, he honestly sat down opposite Chu Nian, staring at the tea on the table without saying a word, and gritted his teeth.

Chu Nian hooked his red lips and said playfully: "Don't blame me for being too harsh, as far as I know, Mr. Jinyan is a decisive and ambitious person, but because he doesn't want to bear the responsibilities he was born with, he is a turtle with a shrunken head, which is really despised." ”

"I can't complain that others call you a poisonous woman, your mouth is so poisonous." Tao glanced at Chu Nian hatefully, and then immediately retracted his gaze, "I'll take the children back first, the Tao family needs more than a little combat power now." ”

"Don't worry," Chu Nian didn't care about Tao Jinyan's abuse, and put down the teacup slowly: "Since it is cooperation, of course we have to show sincerity." ”

These days, Chu Nian didn't see Ming Xiu, and Ming Xiu didn't come, he sent Dark Three to run back and forth between them, according to Dark Three, Ming Xiu has a team of dead soldiers who have been secretly cultivated for many years, and if the Tao family needs it, he can borrow half of it.

The Tao family is a martial arts family, and the Capture Moon Villa is just a new martial arts force established a few years ago, and the strength foundation is not as deep as the Peach family.

And taking advantage of such a big favor as the prince, it is to help persuade the young family master to return, and it is to borrow someone to conquer the Moon Villa, even if Tao Jinyan doesn't want to repay the favor, I'm afraid that the old people of the Tao family will not agree.

At this moment, Tao Jinyan looked at Chu Nian uncertainly: "You and Ming Xiu really planned and calculated me a long time ago, right?" ”

Chu Nian smiled undeniably: "Calculate you? I'm just here to help you make up your mind. ”

After a while, Tao Jinyan gritted his teeth and said, "If you find the token, you have to give it to me!" ”

Chu Nian smiled and picked up the teacup and drank it all.

"You'll walk through the main entrance later." Tao Jinyan glanced at her, his brows furrowed slightly, as if he had restored the former Mr. Jinyan.

Chu Nian glanced at him inexplicably: "You clearly said that you don't want to be used by us, but you still give me the opportunity to use you?" ”

Tao Jinyan pouted: "As the young head of the family, I always have to save some face when I return home, if I go directly to surrender now, I am afraid that those old guys will look down on me, but if you negotiate the terms with them for me first, and then give me an open and honest excuse for not wanting to return home for so long, I will naturally have face as the young head of the family." ”

A hint of understanding flashed in Chu Nian's eyes, and he nodded, "I know." ”

……

At the door of the Walnut Tavern, several big men who looked good at it kept wandering, until a slender woman came out of the door, and several people raised their eyes, and their eyes stayed on the beautiful face of the woman for a moment, and then they withdrew their gaze.

But the woman came over in a curling manner.

At this moment, everyone is sitting around the table, and on the table is the signature "walnut wine" of the walnut tavern, and the side dishes of three or two wines, the wine was drunk a few times, but no one dared to move the dishes.

Seeing the slender woman coming, several people almost subconsciously held the long sword at their waists.

The woman hid her face and smiled: "Why do several heroes bother to guard against such a little woman as me." ”

At this time, the shopkeeper on the side shouted at the right time: "Boss, the walnut wine is gone." ”

Chu Nian smiled at the shopkeeper and said, "If it's gone, it won't be sold today, I have something to discuss with a few heroes, is the private room upstairs free?" ”

The little second brother's face was stunned, and Chu Nian smiled lightly and said, "How many heroes have a face?" I have a few heroes in my hands......"

Several people looked at each other silently, and the first person looked Chu Nian up and down, seeing that it was just a weak and informable woman, so he relaxed his vigilance, nodded and said, "Okay, but if you dare to lie to us, don't blame the sword for having no eyes." ”

As he spoke, he gently stroked the long sword with a piece of Kodama hanging from his waist.

Chu Nian's gaze moved away from their hands holding the knife, and walked towards the wing room upstairs first, the corners of his mouth twitched, it seems that Tao Jinyan has made a stumbling block for these people who come to him in order to avoid the Tao family, otherwise, where can there be such a cowardly person?

Chu Nian could even imagine what kind of tricks Tao Jinyan had used - drugged the food, find beauties to confuse them, and maybe even appear in person to introduce them somewhere, and then wait for them to arrive, and then drug them...... There are no laxatives or anything like laxatives in the wine, and a few people also think that their young master will not directly take heavy drugs to harm them, so those on the table, only the wine they dare to drink, and the rest is to hide people's eyes.

However, it was also Tao who was cautious and hiding, and lived in the capital with great fanfare, but now he was suspicious, but he didn't dare to show up.

In the private room, Chu Niancai looked back with a smile, "Several, please." ”

Those few people entered the cabinet vigilantly, and when they saw that it was indeed non-toxic and drug-free, they sat down honestly - last time, the young master sent someone to take them to a certain inn box and said that he wanted to talk to them, but a group of people drank and talked with the woman, and forcibly pulled their stomachs for three days.

Chu Nian came in with a smile, sat down with a white and gentle body, and the rest of the wine that those people drank was sent up, Chu Nian asked Xiao Er to add a few pots of good peach blossoms to get drunk, and when the good wine and good dishes were put on the table, several people looked at each other.

Chu Nian chuckled: "Don't worry, I'm not your bastard young master's subordinate." ”

"You said that you are not the young master's subordinate, we have inquired about this tavern, it is opened by the young master, you are not the young master's subordinate, but they call you the proprietress ......"

A man who looked extremely honest opened his mouth, and covered his mouth in shock in the middle of speaking: "You are the young master's wife?" ”

Before Chu Nian could speak, he saw another man who looked like their leader glaring at the man who spoke: "How can you speak, the girl is so talented, how can she look at the young master who is so stubborn and not big." ”

"The young master is stubborn, but he is also smart, isn't it? The young master was originally born handsome, and the girls in the clan were all ......."

"That's the girl in the clan, don't be big or small, if it's really the young master's wife, let you run away with these words."

Chu Nian smiled and watched each of them say bad things about Tao Jinyan, picked up the teacup and took a sip.

Seeing that several people had infighting because of Chu Nian's identity, one of them stared at Chu Nian with Tongling's big eyes and said, "Girl, do you say that you are not the young master's wife?" I made a bet with the fourth child, and if you weren't, I would have lost. ”

Chu Nian pursed her red lips, lowered her eyes and said: "Blame me, I haven't introduced myself yet, the little girl's surname is Chu Mingnian, the third daughter of the Chu family in Kyoto, this walnut tavern was opened by my friend, I am temporarily managing it, as for Mr. Jinyan......"

Before the words fell, I saw several strong men on the opposite side staring at each other, and after a while, several people suddenly burst out, each holding the saber on his waist, obviously one could not talk about it and was about to start.

Chu Nian frowned: "A few sons of the Tao family think that the little girl dares to call a few people, there is no way back?" ”

The leader seemed to calm down, his gaze swept over the brothers, and fell on the girl who was looking at them angrily, and after a while, he shook his head and said: "The three mothers of the Chu family, the unequaled county lord, the county lord and the others have already heard of it, but it is just a family rule, and the people in the family are not allowed to have any dealings with the people in the court, otherwise it will be very troublesome." ”

Chu Nian raised his eyebrows and looked at him: "What you are afraid of, I naturally know, but what I said today has nothing to do with the imperial court, you can rest assured, even if I have a request for you, I have to consult with the people in your clan who can talk about important things, and what results can be discussed with you?" ”

Those few people looked at each other, looking at the woman who was still soft and glutinous for a moment, and they were a little at a loss.

"Then, when did the county lord look for us rough people?" The big man who spoke earlier said tentatively.

Are you right? Although he said it a little harshly, it was all the truth! They are just a few lower-level people who have been sent out to find people, so why look for them when there is a big matter!

Seeing the mixed looks of several people, Chu Nian laughed lightly, and then lowered his voice and said, "I know where the person you are looking for is." ”
