Chapter 26: A Thousand Miles of Dreams (17)

With a "bang", the courtyard door was kicked open vigorously, and the fragile wooden door seemed to be unable to withstand such a blow, and one of them swayed to the side.

When Lan Xi and the others looked out of the door, they saw a group of people standing at the door in black.

"My lord, this is it!" A flattering voice sounded, and the object of his flattery was a thin man of about forty years of age, whose skin was particularly white, and he could feel the extremely feminine aura emanating from his body from afar.

I saw that the thin man, his eyes didn't raise much, and he said in a sharp voice: "Since you have found a place, don't hurry up, still waiting for our family to do it yourself!" ”

When several thugs heard this, they raised their eyebrows, and walked towards the back room with angry eyes.

Except for the sleeping youth, the three of Lan Xi had already rushed out of the house, and those thugs surrounded the three of them.

The thin man didn't even look at it, blindfolded, straightened his clothes, spit out the word "hit", and then began to close his eyes and look up at the sky.

But after only hearing a miserable scream, there was no movement behind him, and the thin man who looked up at the sky finally became curious, and moved his eyes to the center of the courtyard, only to see those thugs lying there in all directions, not even humming.

Is this dead? The thin man was so frightened that he didn't dare to look at Lan Xi and the others before he wanted to flee.

"Ahem-" Suddenly, Zhao Ji coughed lightly, and the thin man who was still twisting his face to escape heard this, his body froze, and he still maintained the posture of twisting and running away, but his body stopped there very strangely, and he didn't dare to move.

"Ahem-" After another cough, the thin man seemed to be a loose plaster cast, and in an instant, the whole person rolled into a pile, fell to the ground and kowtowed like pounding garlic, and kept begging for mercy in his mouth: "The official family spares his life, the official family spares his life!" ”

Lan Xi was stunned, what is this called? looked at Zhao Ji with a puzzled expression.

But the eldest lady watched Zhao Ji start to tremble, and she was busy kneeling on the ground and kowtowing.

Zhao Ji coughed lightly twice in embarrassment before returning to normal, and said majestically to the thin man: "Tong Guan, you did a good thing!" I just said that you would come to the folk to collect paintings, but I never let you take them by force! Are you guilty? ”

Tong Guan was already trembling like chaff at this time, and his words were out of tune: "Official, spare the old slave, this is all the idea that Lord Cai Jing Cai gave me!" ”

Zhao Ji's eyebrows raised: "Cai Jing? Does this have anything to do with him? ”

"Exactly!" At this time, Tong Guan seemed to have found a trace of strength, and his voice was much more stable, "Before the slave left Beijing, I met with Lord Cai, and Lord Cai heard that the slave was coming to Yangzhou this time, so he said that there is a family surnamed Wu in Yangzhou, and he is the descendant of the painting saint Wu Daozi, and there is a "Immediately Map" in the house, so that the slave can find a way to get it, and you must ......like the official family when the time comes."

"Then Cai Jing wants you to take it by chance?" Zhao Ji raised his eyebrows angrily.

"Not really, it's just ......," Tong Guan said hesitantly.

"Just what?" Zhao Ji's voice was indescribably majestic, Lan Xi really saw Zhao Ji's imperial spirit this time, usually he was smiling with himself, and he almost forgot that he was an emperor.

"It's just that Lord Cai told the slave that the Niu family has no pillars, and there is only a pair of orphans and widows left, so that the slave can easily get it by looking at it and giving some silver." Although Tong Guan's wording is very particular, he still reveals that his behavior is crooked by that Cai Jing, and he doesn't blame himself!

"Your Majesty!" At this time, the old woman who was kneeling on the ground spoke, "That Cai Jingmin woman knows!" ”

"Oh?" Zhao Ji and Lan Xi were surprised.

"That Cai Jing originally lived next door to my house, and my family met in the early years, and the two always drank together, I think it was from my father-in-law's mouth that I learned about "Ma Litu", but I didn't expect that after the death of my father-in-law, this Cai Jing actually revealed the secrets of my family to others, bringing such a disaster to our orphans and widows, the emperor, you must be the master of the people's women!"

After speaking, the old woman kowtowed on the ground with a "bang, bang", and the hearts of those who listened to it tightened for a while.
