"You said that the special envoy of the proclamation, Lord Li, asked me to meet at the inn?" Songquan put down the book in his hand and looked at the man outside the door wearing the clothes of the envoy guard.

Du Yongnai is Du Yuan's cousin, and like Du Yuan, he gave up literature and martial arts, and was disgusted by the whole family, thanks to Du Yuan's acceptance, he found a position in the army. "That's right, Master Li asked you to meet at the inn and said that there is something important to discuss."

Hearing this, Songquan only felt ridiculous, he and Li Huaijin belonged to two people who couldn't fight together, where did they come from to discuss? "Master Li is afraid that he has found the wrong person, and Song really has nothing to discuss with him."

His reaction was already expected by Du Yong, only to hear Du Yong sneer, "Really? Are you sure there isn't one? I think the king of Nanyang will be interested in knowing how the good and decent white jade Guanyin can appear in Ruyi Zhai, and why the small fishing village ten miles outside the city has a tunnel that leads directly to Wanqingshan. ”

As soon as the words fell, Songquan suddenly got up, rushed to Du Yong's face with an awe-inspiring momentum, and asked in a cold voice: "What do you all know?" ”

"It's definitely a little more than Matsuizumi-sama guessed, and if Matsuizumi-sama is interested in going on this trip, please bring the antidote of black cream." Du Yong looked at him neither humbly nor arrogantly, ignoring his forbearant anger.

Songquan frowned suspiciously, he only knew a few days ago that those tomb robbers were the prince's subordinates, and he easily sold the white jade Guanyin to Ruyi Zhai at a low price, and later led Li Huaijin to buy it and give it to Ji Chaoge as a gift.

This plan can not only separate Ji Chaoge and Zhao Xinyue, but also make Ji Chaoge resentful of Li Huaijin, and they will send someone to assassinate Li Huaijin during the bureau. As long as Li Huaijin dies, Zhao Xinyue will definitely count this account on Ji Chaoge's head, and this marriage will have to be dispersed when the time comes.

"What does Master Li know? If you don't say it, I won't go. "Songquan is gambling, betting that Li Huaijin is tricking him, but in fact, he doesn't know anything.

Seeing that he was still playing tricks, Du Yong turned around and walked out, sneering: "I have already brought it to Lord Songquan, go or not, you can do it yourself." After taking two steps, he stopped and added, "Our adults said, give you a cup of tea time to consider, if you don't go to the evidence, you will send it to the Nanyang Palace, and we will wait and see what the Nanyang King will do." ”

Seeing Du Yong walking away, Songquan stood in place and was so angry that his chest rose and fell! Threat, blunt threat, damn Li Huaijin, actually threatened him.

"To go, to go, or not to go?" Qin Ke, who had been acting as a background and was silent, asked out loud when he saw Du Yong leaving.

Songquan's fists tightened, loosened and tightened, and he struggled for a long time before he said: "Go, whether he is playing tricks or really knows something, we have to go to find out the truth in person." ”

"Okay, I'll go with you." Qin Ke turned around and changed into his regular clothes, and followed Songquan out of the back door of the courtyard with his sword. "My lord, do you need to report this matter to the county lord?"

Tell Qin Fengya, is it still possible to talk about this matter? Song Quan shook his head with a sad face, and sighed lightly: "The county lord is still young, so it's better not to tell her before the results of this matter are out." ”

Qin Ke was right to think about it carefully, with Qin Fengya's grudgeful temperament, if he knew that they were going to see Li Huaijin, he would definitely obstruct it in every possible way, it was better to cut it first and then play it.

The inn's elegant garden was very richly decorated, and Songquan had a black face all the way, and he had no intention of enjoying the surrounding scenery.

"Lord Songquan, look up for a long time." Hearing Du Yong's report, Du Yuan didn't wait for anyone to walk into the inner courtyard, so he strode out to greet him.

I didn't see Li Huaijin come to greet him in person, and Songquan Pi smiled and bowed his hand to Du Yuan, "Song was invited, I don't know where Master Li is?" ”

Sure enough, as Huai Jin guessed, this person would ask him where he was as soon as he entered the door. Du Yuan chuckled, made a gesture of please, and made a gesture of invitation to the side as Huai Jin said, and did not give the other party a chance to pick on him.

"Lord Songquan, please, Huai Jin knows that you like Wuyi Da Hong Pao, and is making tea for you."

As the saying goes, many people are not surprised, the other party receives him so warmly, and Songquan reads the book of sages, so naturally he can't do such a villain behavior.

"Lord Li is polite, how can Song be treated like this." Songquan's face was slightly softened, and he walked into the inner courtyard side by side with Du Yuan, and sure enough, he saw Li Huaijin sitting in the middle of the courtyard with white silk blindfolded and washing his hands and making tea. "Master Li's eyes, what's wrong?"

Hearing this, Li Huaijin's hand movements for making tea paused slightly, and then he continued to make tea like a cloud, and said in a cold voice: "I was poisoned and hurt my eyes." ”

"What's so poisonous?" Songquan was startled, and then remembered that the guards who went to invite him to the appointment asked him to bring the antidote to the black cream, could it be the poison of the black cream in Li Huaijin?

This is impossible, doesn't it mean that the poisoned person is Ji Chaoge, how could he become Li Huaijin, what went wrong?

Li Huaijin made the tea smoothly, pushed the first cup in front of Songquan, and said with a smile: "Lord Songquan, taste it, how does the tea made by Li compare with that of King Nanyang." ”

"Thank you." Songquan smiled indifferently, picked up the tea cup and took a sip, the tea leaves are ordinary, but the craftsmanship of making tea is a must, this tea is the best Da Hong Pao he has ever drunk. "Good tea, good craftsmanship."

"How about a cup of tea for an antidote?" Li Huaijin raised his hand to pour tea for him, but the tea cup in his hand did not move.

Songquan shook his hand holding the tea, and asked a little uncertainly, "What do you mean?" ”

"The first strategist beside King Qinyang can't even understand such simple words? Since I was born, I have only made tea for three people, one is the former emperor, the second is the current majesty, the third is Her Royal Highness the eldest princess, and Mr. is the fourth person. Mr. thinks that he is better than the previous three people, isn't this cup of tea worth an antidote? ”

Hearing this, Songquan looked at the teacup in his hand with a smile, and said helplessly: "This cup of tea is really expensive, but Master Li is right, a cup of tea for an antidote, this deal is cost-effective." ”

Li Huaijin shook his head with a smile and raised two fingers, "It's two, Mr. Fang Cai drank two cups." ”

"You!" Songquan laughed angrily, and looked at Li Huaijin with a slight surprise, he couldn't believe that he was like a businessman. What's even more ridiculous is that he, who is known for his sophistry, was led by his nose and couldn't refute half a sentence.

Through the white silk, Li Huaijin couldn't see Songquan's face, but he could guess his indignation at the moment from his rapid breathing. "If Mr. thinks that the antidote is not worth it, Li has another sentence to give, which will definitely make Mr. feel that it is worth the money."

"Oh, I want to hear about it." Songquan put down the teacup, but he didn't want to be taken away by him for taking a sip of tea.

Du Yuan had been accompanying him all the time, and when he saw Songquan put down the teacup, he said strangely: "Why doesn't Lord Songquan drink it, but the tea is not appetizing?" ”

"This is the best tea Song has ever drunk, but unfortunately it is too expensive for Song to drink." Songquan said with a wry smile, a cup of tea and an antidote, he has only been rewarded with three for so many years of advice for the prince. Now that two of them are surnamed Li, the last one can't be cheated by him anymore no matter what.

"Haha, don't worry, I'll invite you for this cup." Du Yuan was amused and laughed, smiling and pouring tea for him, his face full of reassuring sincerity.

Songquan picked up the teacup and said suspiciously: "Is this true?" ”

"Nature." Du Yuan nodded, took the first step to take a sip of tea, smashed his mouth at the end, and nodded to him with a smile. "Lord Matsuizumi, drink it with confidence."

Even if he said this, Songquan was still not very reassured, but he couldn't bear Li Huaijin's tea making too fragrant, and finally pinched the tea cup between his fingers.

Songquan doesn't love money, doesn't love beauty, doesn't love calligraphy and painting, but loves tea, Li Huaijin pinched his weakness, used his tea art to get closer to him, and paved the way for Zhao Xinyue in advance.

He had carefully studied Songquan, this man was resourceful and good at sophistry, he was the most respected number one strategist beside King Qinyang, and he knew all the secrets of King Qinyang. Even if such a person can't pull to Xin'er's side, he must not let him stand opposite Xin'er.

"Does Lord Songquan know about the Lord of Qinyang?" Coldly, Li Huaijin put down the teapot in his palm and asked with a chuckle.

Isn't this nonsense? But is he Li Huaijin a person who can talk nonsense? Apparently not!

Songquan looked at Li Huaijin with his eyes, and asked in a deep voice: "Lord Li's question is strange, Song accompanied the county lord to Nanyang as a guest, how can he not know the county lord." ”

Li Huaijin chuckled, covered his lips with his fists and coughed lightly, sneering and asked, "Mr. thinks that Li is asking Qin Fengya?" How can she be worthy of the word county lord? ”

"What do you mean by this, Lord Li?" Songquan's heart sank, and a bad feeling spread in his heart, could it be that he knew something, impossible, only he and the prince knew about this matter, and even the county lord himself did not know.

"Why did Mr. ask knowingly, according to the reliable information that Li got that the prince of Wuyang had divorced his wife, and as compensation, he sent the 50,000 troops stationed in the border cities of Wuyang and Qinyang to the lord of Caiqin. Counting the time, the county lord of Caiqin should have already left to return to Qinyang, doesn't Mr. know? ”

"What did you say?" Songquan's heart jumped, and with a ding dong, the teacup in his hand fell to the ground and shattered. "Where did you get the news? Why haven't I heard anything about it? ”

Li Huaijin raised his eyebrows contemptuously, and said, "King Qinyang has the intention to hide it from you, don't you know what's strange?" ”

"You are talking nonsense, why does the prince want to hide it from me?" Songquan couldn't accept it, he had been giving advice to the king of Qinyang for so many years, even if he didn't have merit, he had hard work, and it was impossible for the prince to hide it from him for such a big thing as Caiqin being retired to Qinyang.

But in his selfish heart, he hoped that the news was true, when Caiqin married Wuyang, the purpose was that the 50,000 Wuyang army stationed in the border city finally got what she wanted, and she was finally able to leave the cage and come back to live her comfortable life.

"Sir always likes to ask knowingly, isn't it interesting?" Li Huaijin said lightly, stretched out his hand in front of him, and said indifferently: "Antidote, two." ”

Songquan choked, reluctantly took out the porcelain bottle from his arms, poured out two antidotes from it and put them into his palm.
