Chapter 012: Unexpected Visitor

When she came, Sima Hongyan was still worried about what if the Nine Emperor Princes really wanted to come to her to see her play the iron wind instrument. Later, after thinking about it, so many days have passed, which prince would take such a trivial matter to heart, and he must have forgotten about her as a person. In fact, this is also the reason why she stays at home in her new mansion, just to make people forget her.

When I went out today, I asked Qinghan to change a set of inconspicuous clothes for her, so it shouldn't be anything.

When he arrived near the iron shop, Sima Hongyan didn't rush in, stood not far away and observed the iron shop for a long time, until he felt that everything was normal, he felt at ease, and quietly slipped in with Qinghan.

The blacksmith still recognized her, and he was very embarrassed to step forward and salute, "Girl, what happened last time ......" Sima Hongyan waved his hand and stopped him and said, "Okay, it's none of your business." Are my things ready? The blacksmith couldn't say any more, and hurriedly said, "It's done, the last thing I finished yesterday." As he spoke, he led the way and led Sima Hongyan's master and servant to the backyard.

The blacksmith lifted a piece of tarpaulin, and under it were neatly stacked steel rings and pipes that I didn't know what to do. When the sun shines, it sparkles.

Sima Hongyan picked it up one by one and looked at it carefully, confirming that the size was correct, and then asked Qinghan to pay the balance, and by the way, even the drawings in the blacksmith's hand were also asked for and put them on his body to hide. Before leaving, he asked the blacksmith, "Where is your back door?" ā€

The blacksmith pointed behind him and said, "Go around that wall." ā€

"Alright, that's none of your business, bye-bye!" Sima Hongyan took Qinghan to find the back door, and when he pushed it open, Wu Zhao was already driving outside.

The three of them worked together to carry a few boxes of things into the car. Qinghan had little strength and couldn't hold a box, but Sima Hongyan picked it up and left, which shows that the hard work of these days has not been in vain.

Everything was in order, Sima Hongyan and Qinghan got into the car, Wu Zhao waved his whip and headed towards the east of the city.

All the best! Sima Hongyan secretly rejoiced, as long as these things were moved back to the house, even if the Nine Emperor Princes came to the door in the future, they would tell him that the things were not satisfactory, and they would be sold as scrap iron, and they would not admit it when they came, and there was no other way to forgive him!

The more I thought about it, the more I felt seamless, and Sima Hongyan couldn't help but laugh.

All the way unimpeded, back to the east of the city. Sima Hongyan ordered the carriage to be driven directly into the mansion and waited for the gate to close. She jumped out of the car and shouted at the yard, "Come and help move the ......" halfway through the sentence, but she was stunned on the spot.

It turned out that the Nine Emperor Princes, who had been worried all the way, were standing in the courtyard in a big way, looking at her with a smile! The guards and subordinates in the palace were all stopped ten meters away by the generals, so it is no wonder that no one reported when they came in.

This unexpected move made Sima Hongyan unexpected, and he secretly said in his heart: "This kid is much more damaging than I imagined, just block my old nest, I can't hide it if I want to." ā€

The Nine Emperor Princes walked in all directions, paced to the stunned Sima Hongyan, and asked softly, "What did the girl call someone to help you move?" How much is it? Do you want me to call my men to help you? ā€

Sima Hongyan squinted at the slightly smug Nine Emperor Princes, pretending to be indifferent, and replied, "It's nothing!" I asked them to help me move a chair, and I—I'm tired from sitting in the car. Suddenly, he changed to a surprised expression and asked, "Hey! When did the Nine Emperor Princes come? Why didn't you notify me in advance? Hurry up, sit in the house, it's cold outside, go in and drink hot water! ā€

The Nine Emperors ignored her and walked towards the carriage instead. At this time, Qinghan happened to get out of the car, and when he saw the Nine Emperors standing in front of him, he was startled, and subconsciously moved his body and blocked in front of the carriage.

How could this kind of behavior of wanting to cover up be concealed from the Nine Emperor Princes, he was even more convinced of his own judgment. Turning his head to Sima Hongyan, he said: "It's not in a hurry to enter the house and sit down, the girl should take down your customized musical instrument, this prince is just as he says, come to listen to your performance." ā€

There was no way to hide, so Sima Hongyan simply called someone and moved a few boxes of things to the living room. The Nine Emperor Princes seemed to be unhurried, but in fact, they did not leave each step of the way, not letting these boxes out of their sight.

When everything was moved in, the Nine Emperors and Sima Hongyan sat opposite each other. Qinghan served tea and quietly withdrew from the living room at the suggestion of the young lady.

When there were only two people left in the hall, Sima Hongyan and the Nine Emperor Princes, Sima Hongyan spoke: "Your Highness, you are too anxious!" These instruments will have to be assembled together before they can be used, and it will take some time. I think you'll be in a few days, and when I've got it done, how about inviting you over? ā€

The Nine Emperors didn't answer, picked up the teacup, blew it gently, took a sip slowly, put the teacup down, and then said, "Miss Sima, you are a smart person, but I'm not stupid." You and I both know in our hearts that these things are not musical instruments or candlesticks. ā€

Unexpectedly, the Nine Emperor Princes were straightforward, and Sima Hongyan was slightly surprised. But she didn't think that her nonsense could hide from this shrewd fellow. Since everyone tacitly agreed, she simply opened the skylight and said something bright, and she no longer avoided it, and asked directly: "What do you want?" ā€

The Nine Emperor Princes were very satisfied with Sima Hongyan's reaction and said, "Happy! Let's be straight, I don't want to use power to oppress people, and I don't want to force you, instead of us going back and forth in circles, how about we make a deal? ā€

"Deal?" Sima Hongyan didn't expect it, and asked rhetorically: "What do you want to trade?" ā€

The Nine Emperor Princes stood up, picked up a steel pipe from the box, spread it in the palm of his hand, and said to Sima Hongyan, "You tell me what these things do." After a pause, he lowered his voice and continued, "I'll tell you how your father died." ā€

After hearing this, Sima Hongyan of "Teng" stood up and said gloomily: "Are you saying that my father really didn't die of illness?" ā€

The Nine Emperor Princes reflexively sat back in their chairs and shook the iron pipe in their hands.

Sima Hongyan fell into deep thought, and after a long time, he raised his head and said, "Okay! I can tell you, but I have three conditions! ā€

"What? This deal is already a good deal for you, and you have to add three more conditions? The Nine Emperor Princes said with some anger.

"Not bad. Because the stakes are high, if you can't say yes, I'd rather not make this deal. Sima Hongyan said categorically.

Seeing that the Nine Emperors' face had changed, Sima Hongyan said again: "Actually, it doesn't matter if you don't agree, anyway, I know that my father's death is not accidental, if you don't say that I will find a way to investigate, it's just that it takes more time." So, this deal is also a good deal for you. ā€

The Nine Emperors looked at the woman in front of him again, and they had a feeling that they had been tricked by her. But I have to admire her calmness and wisdom in my heart. Indeed, the words are spoken by oneself, and there is no one to blame others.

Dealing with this woman twice, he didn't take any advantage of himself, which made the Nine Emperor Prince have a great interest in Sima Hongyan.

The Nine Emperors also simply agreed: "Okay! Deal. Tell us about your conditions! ā€

"First, after I tell you, you can't use that as an excuse to trouble me; Second, you can't imitate it without my permission. Third, you have to swear that if you don't do the above two things, you are not human! Sima Hongyan finished the three conditions in one breath.

The first two are nothing, and when I heard the third article, the face of the Nine Emperor Princes became a little ugly, and he scolded the prince in front of the prince that he was not a human being, and it is estimated that this bold and reckless Sima Hongyan can say it.

"Although I am not the emperor of Chrysostom, my Yanling royal family has always been true to my word and kept my promises. Your third request is a bit excessive. "The Nine Emperor Princes felt that they could not make such an oath.

Sima Hongyan looked at him and said disapprenously: "How is the royal family?" It's not unheard of the head of state saying one thing and doing another. That can't be credited, I just see that although you have lost a little bit of your personality, you should still be a man, so I reluctantly believe your oath. ā€
