Chapter 268: Blame
Lincheng Mansion ushered in distinguished guests again, and when Lu Zhi saw the golden token engraved with cloud patterns and dragons, cold sweat instantly fell. This token is different from the previous Jin Nanshu took out, the cloud pattern represents the royal surname, and only the royal people dare to engrave this dragon on this token!
Emperor Qiyuan's abdication, even if he is a border petty official, it is clear that after all, this world belongs to the Yun family, and he, a person who can't touch the core of power, no matter who takes the throne, it will have no effect on him. But isn't it a little strange recently, this remote small city, there are big people one after another, first the little marquis, and then the general, and even the prince is here at this time!
Lu Zhi wiped the cold sweat from the corner of his forehead, and he didn't know whether to say that he was lucky or weak.
Lu Zhizhan trembled and arranged a place for the distinguished guest, he originally wanted to give the main courtyard where he lived to the distinguished guest, but he was refused. Seeing that this distinguished guest only brought two entourages with him, Lu Zhi suddenly realized that this distinguished guest was afraid that he wanted to keep a low profile. Lu Zhi arranged the three masters and servants in a remote courtyard, and beat everyone up and down the house, especially Mrs. Lu and Lu Mingyao.
The noble man who lives in Lu Mansion is none other than the eldest prince Yun Suiyang.
"How?" Yun Suiyang put down the cup in his hand and looked at the visitor.
The scholar-like strategist shook his head and said, "Failed." ”
Yun Suiyang's face sank instantly, "What's the matter, didn't you promise the palace that it would be foolproof!" That's your guarantee! A fist slammed into the table, and the cup full of tea shook with the force.
The counsellor bowed his head and bore the wrath of his master.
Ever since he got the news that Wei Xiao had appeared in Lincheng, Yun Suiyang had concluded that their target was here. Yun Suiyang is ruthless, since he has found the prey, it is impossible for the prey to be brought back safely! Three days ago, his people arrived in Lincheng, and the murders were hidden in the dark, and he lived in the prefect's mansion in a grand manner, just to tell Wei Xiao, more precisely, the master behind Wei Xiao, he was bright and upright!
It's just a pity that they failed!
"None of the men sent to assassinate survived." The strategist licked his lips with difficulty, which was very dry, and a trace of fear flashed in his eyes at the same time, "It's not ......"
"But what?"
"One of them was caught." The strategist whispered, as if he was afraid that Yun Suiyang would hear it.
But no matter how small his voice is, in this not too large space, Yun Suiyang can still hear it clearly. He clearly knew the consequences of the killer falling into Wei Xiao's hands, anger and uneasiness surged up instantly, his hands clenched tightly into fists, and he gritted his teeth: "Is there any evidence left?" ”
Cold sweat continued to soak from the corners of the strategist's forehead, his head hung lower, and he could feel Yun Suiyang's anger that could tear him apart at any time! He replied tremblingly: "It's all arranged according to what you said, Your Highness rest assured, there will be no mistakes." ”
Yun Suiyang glanced at him, noncommittal.
"Where's Wei Xiao?"
The strategist was stunned for a moment, he couldn't keep up with Yun Suiyang's train of thought, but he subconsciously replied: "In the Tianyue Inn in Lincheng." ”
"Has he ever been out of town during this time?"
Since learning that Wei Xiao had arrived in Lincheng, Yun Suiyang has been arranging for people to closely monitor Wei Xiao, and at the same time carefully searching for Yun Suiyue's whereabouts in the surrounding area. Sure enough, he guessed correctly! However, there is one thing that makes Yun Suiyang feel strange, Wei Xiao has been helping a girl named Hua Qingyan during this time, and after arresting a group of women and children to the mansion, there has been no other action.
"No, Wei Xiao has never been out of the city, and he is wandering around the city during the day as if he has nothing to do."
"That's weird." Yun Suiyang was puzzled, he had little contact with Wei Xiao on weekdays, and his understanding of this person was second only to the surface. Of course, this person is a person from King Rui, and it is impossible for him to understand it deeply. However, Yun Suiyang felt that Wei Xiao was not the kind of person who coveted the gentle township, so why would he help a girl's family? Could it be that girl, what special identity does it have?
didn't understand Wei Xiao's behavior, Yun Suiyang couldn't guess the deep meaning of this, and planned to go out to meet Wei Xiao, but he didn't expect to meet Lu Mingyao at the door to send the women and children of the Liu family out. The group of women and children were crying and crying, and their faces were sallow. Mrs. Liu was supported by Lu Mingyao and was crying extremely sadly.
"Lu Gongzi."
Lu Mingyao was stunned for a moment, and saw that it was a distinguished guest who lived in the mansion, and hurriedly greeted: "Young Master Yun!" He looked at the people around him again, his face was a little ugly, "Yun Gongzi made you smile, these are my relatives from other countries." ”
Recently, I have been in a lot of trouble, with that General Wei here, let alone let it go, I can't even turn a blind eye. But the Liu family cried and cried all day long, crying, making trouble, and hanging themselves, but they were staged in turn every day, making the entire Lu Mansion unpeaceful, and even Mrs. Lu was implicated and confined in confinement.
In this way, Lu Mingyao also has an opinion on the Liu family, Liu Mengying's case was completely made up by herself, because she has not yet made a life, so she was sentenced to two years in prison. This is already General Nawei's benevolence, but the Liu family doesn't know what to do if they run to make trouble like this.
Lu Mingyao sighed, not wanting to be embarrassed in front of the distinguished guests, and hurriedly led the Liu family out.
Yun Suiyang looked at the group of women and children and did not speak, but followed behind the group and watched them out of the Lu family. The matter has been settled, and presumably the Liu family also knows that there is no room for turnaround, so they didn't dwell on it much, Lu Mingyao said a few good words and coaxed people away.
"My son heard that your in-laws were sent to prison?"
When Lu Mingyao heard Yun Suiyang's voice, he turned around and jumped, but he immediately turned around, and hurriedly lowered his head and lowered his eyebrows and said: "This matter is my cousin's fault, it was the Liu family who made her arrogant, so she not only hurt people, but also intended to sell the girl to the green building." Hey, it's also a family unfortunate. ”
said that Lu Mingyao was actually a little weak-hearted, after all, Liu Mengying wanted to kidnap someone, and he was also an insider. He thought that Liu Mengying would also arrest and punish people. But I didn't expect her to do things so desperately, and she actually wanted to harm the innocent girl! Although he also bullies men and women on weekdays, he has never done such a lack of morality as selling people to Qinglou!
This arrogant and domineering girl Yun Suiyang has seen a lot, but his family's cloud seed pity is not like this, and such pampered girls in the capital also abound. As for selling people to Qinglou, it is also commonplace. Yun Suiyang didn't take it to heart. He glanced at Lu Mingyao, "I heard that this matter is related to a girl named Hua Qingyan?" ”
When it came to Hua Qingyan, Lu Mingyao had a headache. But when the guest asked, he had to answer: "Yes, it's just that my cousin first embarrassed other girls." And if it weren't for this girl, my cousin would have made a big mistake. ”
"Oh, it seems that this girl has a blue heart." Yun Suiyang smiled with his eyes half-closed, his mood was a little inexplicable.
"Yes, that girl is still the second owner of Guanlanju, she is beautiful and has good craftsmanship." Lu Mingyao answered casually.
Guanlan Residence!
Yun Suiyang was stunned in his heart, the people of Yongjing City knew that this Guanlan Residence was Jin Nanshu's industry. Although Jin Nanshu is a proton, he has King Rui as a guarantee, and Emperor Qiyuan also embarrass him. This proton is doing a good job. He had heard of Guanlanju's delicious food for a long time, especially last year, and that reputation was even worse. It's a pity that Yun Suiyang was busy and never found a chance to try it.
He didn't expect that a girl's family would actually be the second owner of this Guanlanju, and listening to Lu Mingyao's tone, the dishes of this Guanlanju were all thought up by this girl. Yun Suiyang was full of interest in that Hua Qingyan at the moment.
"I wonder where that girl is? Such a wonderful person, this son wants to get acquainted with each other and make a good fate. ”
Lu Mingyao glanced at Yun Suiyang cautiously, he was also a man, he naturally knew what this person was thinking, saying that he was a good match, and he was afraid that he would do something to Hua Qingyan if he had bad intentions. Lu Mingyao thought about the relationship between Na Hua Qingyan and General Na Wei, and wanted to mention a few words about this nobleman, but he didn't know who was lower and who was higher in the identity of this noble man and General Nawei.
"That girl is good friends with General Wei, so it's better not to provoke the son."
Lu Mingyao's thoughts, Yun Suiyang didn't know where, he tugged at the corner of his mouth and said noncommittal: "It's okay, then Wei Xiao can't do anything to this son, you just have to say." ”
Even his father was jealous of the distinguished guest, so naturally he couldn't be offended. Lu Mingyao finally gave Hua Qingyan's address to Yun Suiyang. Yun Suiyang pondered carefully for a while, and felt that no matter how capable a country girl was, it didn't matter to him, he couldn't help him bring down Yun Suiyue, and he couldn't help him win the heir, so he was naturally a useless person.
Yun Suiyang had a chance encounter with Wei Xiao at the door of the Tianyue Inn, and Wei Xiao was extremely surprised when he saw him, and was stopped by Yun Suiyang just as he wanted to salute. Wei Xiao laughed a few times, took the initiative to invite Yun Suiyang to the restaurant for a drink, patted his chest and said: "I said son, it is fate to meet today, I invite you to drink, I will be the east!" ”
"Then it's better to be respectful than to obey." Yun Suiyang looked at the silly smile on Wei Xiao's face, and a hint of darkness flashed in his eyes. Wei Xiao is the right-hand man of King Rui, and he is a vanguard general in the army. Don't look at him stupidly, everyone who actually fought knows it, but it's just pretending to be stupid. People who work with King Rui can't be straight!
After finding the largest restaurant, Wei Xiao generously threw the silver ingots and gave Xiao Er the signature dish, and then followed Yun Suiyang into the private room. Yun Suiyang was not polite, and went straight to the point: "I don't know why General Wei appeared in this small town?" ”
Wei Xiao poured a cup of tea by himself, and poured it like a cow chewing a peony, "Naturally, it's the right thing." "Wei Xiao is too lazy to talk to Yun Suiyang and the snake, it is more direct than this big prince, "The last general is ordered by the prince to come to pick up the current saint to return to the court." ”
