Chapter 769: Jade Pendant
Shen Yuan didn't go far before he saw a carriage parked there, driven by a man with five big and three rough, seeing Shen Yuan coming over, the man said, "Lord Xie asked me to listen to your dispatch." ”
Shen Yuan looked at the man for a long time and didn't speak, and the man became impatient: "Don't miss the hour, Lord Xie......"
"Okay, you send this jade pendant to the Zhanjia Courtyard on Dongzhao Street and give it to Mr. Nameless." Without waiting for the man to finish speaking, Shen Yuan interrupted him categorically.
The man looked at the jade pendant handed over by Shen Yuan, and hesitated a little: "It's over to him?" Don't you have a word to bring to him? ”
Although Shen Yuan has been bumpy and displaced over the years, he grew up in the Shouwang Mansion when he was a child, and received the education of the children of the royal family, and he has an innate pride.
Facing the man's questioning, Shen Yuan said coldly: "If you have doubts, but go and ask Xie Sicheng and want to question me, you are not worthy." ”
Although he looked like a thin boy of fourteen or fifteen years old, the awe-inspiring aura emanating from his body still made the man stunned and did not speak again.
Xie Sicheng treated him and asked him to run errands for Shen Yuan, but also to prevent Shen Yuan and Nameless from running away, Xie Sicheng knew that he couldn't ask anything from Shen Yuan, as Shen Yuan said, he was not worthy.
The man decisively shut up, took the jade pendant and drove the carriage away.
Tonight is destined to be an extraordinary night, there has already been a rumor in Xi'an City, but Xie Sicheng has already done reconnaissance and arrangement, three hundred dead soldiers can avoid the eyes and ears of the Xi'an defenders, this man can easily avoid the soldiers patrolling the city.
The Zhanjia Courtyard on Dongzhao Street is the house where Zhanyu lives. For this, not many people in Xi'an City know much, in fact, there are even more people in Xi'an City who know Zhanyu.
Before Zhanhuai raised the army, the horse Zhanyu was already a dead man; After Zhanhuai raised the army, no one mentioned Zhanyu's name, but the world still regarded him as a dead man, and some people even said that the reason why the Zhan family cooperated with the Xie family was that in addition to Zhanhuai marrying the daughter of the Xie family, there was also the death of Zhanyu.
The second son of the dignified Fujian Mansion, when the dynasty horse, was actually blown up and killed in Jialing, and it was the mausoleum of Princess Jiurong, the daughter of Taizu, who was bombed, since Zhanhuai raised the army, the streets and alleys have been circulating that Emperor Taizu did not hesitate to kill his wife and daughter in order to steal the country, Princess Jiurong did not die of illness, but was ordered by her biological father to swallow gold and died. In this way, it is reasonable that today's son did not hesitate to blow up the mausoleum of Princess Jiurong in order to kill Zhan's horse.
Compared with the official statements of the imperial court and the noncommittal non-committal of the Zhan family, the people are more willing to believe their own conjectures, not to mention that those conjectures have long become well-known secrets and circulated in teahouse restaurants.
In addition, there are also reasons for Zhanyu's personality, so although Zhanyu has been in the northwest for two or three years, he has not come to the front of people.
The Zhanjia Courtyard on Dongzhao Street is just a house in the eyes of outsiders, and there is no plaque at the door, or because some people often see the mule cart of the Zhanfu on Chang'an Street to deliver things here, only to know that this house is not rented out, but someone lives here, as for who it is, then no one dares to ask.
The man went all the way to Dongzhao Street, which is very secluded, and at night, the whole street is black, because the people who live here are ordinary people, so there are no houses that hang lanterns in front of the door.
The man knocked on the door of the courtyard, and after knocking for a while, the door opened from the inside, and an old man poked out.
"Who are you looking for at night?"
The man took out the jade pendant and said, "It was Shen Yuan, who helped the second master make the account, that asked me to give this to Mr. Nameless, and he said that Mr. Nameless would know what was going on when he saw this." ”
The old man looked at the man suspiciously, did not speak, took the jade pendant, and the door closed quietly.
The man was stunned for a moment, and he suddenly thought, why is it as if nothing happened here with such a big movement tonight? If it weren't for the fact that the old man obviously knew about Shen Yuan, he would even think that he had come to the wrong place.
Fortunately, he didn't wait too long, and the door reopened in a moment, except for the old man who opened the door, there was also a man in his thirties.
The man's hair was disheveled, and his clothes were clearly hastily put on, and one of the buckles had not yet been fastened.
The man has an ordinary face, so ordinary that people will not remember it at a glance.
He was thin and weak, probably walking too quickly, and he could see a slight flush on his face in the moonlight, obviously he had no martial arts.
The man put his mind at ease and asked, "May I ask if Your Excellency is Mr. Nameless?" ”
The man looked anxious, and clenched the jade pendant tightly in his hand: "What about Xiao Yuan?" Where did you meet him and how was he? ”
The man didn't expect Nameless to be in such a hurry, and sure enough, as Shen Yuan said, Nameless would follow him when he saw this jade pendant.
He said, "He just handed me the jade pendant and said that an unknown gentleman would pass by when he saw the jade pendant." He...... He looks good, right on Sihe Street. ”
On the way here, the man had already thought about it, the more he told the truth, the less the name would suspect him, and instead of making up a series of stories, it was better to say a few words.
The old man on the side frowned, and said to Nameless: "Mr. Wu, I don't know where this person came from, the second master is not at home, you still don't go out." ”
Nameless was furious, and said unceremoniously to the old man: "Xiao Yuan said that if one day he asks someone to send this jade pendant over, it will be a matter of life and death, let me save him." ”
The old man was also startled, and said to Nameless: "Then you can bring a few more people." ”
After speaking, without waiting for no one to say more, the old man turned around and went in, and after a while, he brought three people over.
The man was taken aback when he saw the three people, all three of them were not tall, thin and small, one of them had a few scars on his face, which looked a little scary at first glance, looking at the age of about twenty, and then carefully looked at this person not only had scars, but also had a yellow complexion, a sickly face, and walked a little shaky, like the wind blew down.
The other two are white and clean, but they are only fourteen or fifteen years old, but they have lost a few pounds, and they don't look like Lian Jiazi at all.
"Mr. Wu, the second master brought a group of people with him when he went out, and the rest went to the backyard at this time, only the three of them are idle, don't dislike it, they were all sent over from Chang'an Street, and they have seen some of the world, and if there is really danger, multiple people can also send letters to the defenders." The old man's words were dry, maybe he felt a little embarrassed, such three people, it's good not to drag others down, what else can you expect them to do?
Nameless obviously didn't care about these either, and he said to the man who was already impatient: "Go, go!" ”
