Chapter 68: An Inexplicable Contradiction

In the evening, in Dongyue Nanhe City, three fast horses roared in, and the soldiers defending the city did not dare to stop them when they saw the token shown by one of them.

Inn.

When the shopkeeper saw that there was a distinguished customer, he immediately offered a smiling face. "Four guest officers, please."

"Little Er, prepare three rooms, and then prepare some dinner and send it to my room." Qingying said to Xiao Er.

"Okay, the four guest officers, please come with the little one."

The shopkeeper led the four of them to the second floor first and stopped outside a room. "There are only two upper rooms left on the third floor, and there is one room left on the second floor, I don't know who of the four lives on the second floor?"

"Then I'll live on the second floor, and Ling'er will live with Qingying." Lu Qianmo, who was dressed in men's clothes, said.

The shopkeeper quickly took the expressions of the four people into his eyes, and seeing that no one objected, he said, "That's okay, this son, please rest inside for a while, and these three sons, please go up to the third floor with the little one." ”

"Dinner is ready, remember to call me." Lu Qianmo said to Qingying. In the past few days, there was no carriage without Yun Moxi, and not only did I not sleep well along the way, but I also did not eat well.

"Lord Lu can rest assured."

After the shopkeeper led the three of them to the room, he left, and Yun Moxi and Qingying's room were directly opposite.

"After dinner, you go to contact the shadow guard, and leave for Yicheng tomorrow." Yun Moxi explained.

"Yes."

……

"Nanhe City is close to Dongyue Imperial City, there must be a lot of interesting plays, what do you have to recommend Qingying?" Lu Qianmo, who was kind at night, asked.

"There's something fun, Ling'er wants to go too." Shen Ling's eyes lit up when he heard this, and he agreed.

Without waiting for Qingying to speak, Yun Moxi said: "I've been in a hurry for days, and at this moment you don't want to rest, but want to find interesting plays, which is not like your style at all." ”

"I was very tired, but I don't know why I didn't feel sleepy when I got to the inn." Lu Qianmo explained.

"There is a horse farm in South River City, where equestrian competitions are staged every day, and the first place winner wins a prize, and the spectators can bet on winning or losing."

How does it sound a bit like a modern horse betting? I didn't expect that Xia Chuan Continent would have this kind of entertainment project so early.

"It's just a pity that this kind of competition is only played during the day."

"Listen to you, we're leaving tomorrow."

"That's right."

Hearing this, Lu Qianmo was a little disappointed and said, "It seems that there is no eye." The pavilion master is not very interested in other things, it seems that he can only go to the gambling house under the Moyan Pavilion to play two games of mahjong tonight to pass the long night. ”

"Sister Mo, what is mahjong? Ling'er is also going. ”

I forgot that there was also Shen Ling, a little ghost, "Children can't go to the gambling house, you can stay in the room and sleep tonight." ”

Hearing this, Shen Ling was disappointed and obediently shut up.

"I didn't expect you to have this hobby." Yun Moxi said lightly.

"After all, I invented it, how could it have come out without some interest?"

"I heard that this thing has earned a lot of money for Moyan Pavilion."

"Not much." Lu Qianmo said humbly.

……

After dinner, Lu Qianmo came to the gambling house and sat down at a mahjong table, and soon someone from the gambling house came up to talk.

"I don't know what this boy wants to play?"

Lu Qianmo took out a jade spike and handed it to the visitor, saying, "Give this to your boss, and say that someone is looking for him." ”

The person who came took the jade spike and saw that it was not ordinary, and said, "Childe, please wait here." Then he said to the people, "Good life takes care of this son." ”

A stick of incense has passed, and no one has come to talk back and forth, and it seems that the owner of this gambling house is not here at the moment. After another tea time, the person just now finally went and returned, and after coming back, he was even more respectful to Lu Qianmo. "This son, my master said that the gambling house is full of people, and he has asked me to wait for the carriage to take you to the house to talk."

"Then let's go."

After getting into the carriage, about the time of a cup of tea, the carriage stopped outside a house, and the owner of the gambling house was already waiting outside the door.

The owner of the gambling house saw Lu Qianmo get out of the car and wanted to salute, but was stopped by the other party. "This is not the place to speak."

The owner of the gambling house understood and led Lu Qianmo into the mansion.

"Subordinate Zhao Youwei see the pavilion master." This is the first time Zhao Youwei has seen Lu Qianmo with his own eyes, although the people in the gambling house just now sent a token from the pavilion master, and he only dared to confirm it when he saw the real person and the portrait.

"No need to be polite." Zhao Youwei is only in his thirties, and he is the main interface of Moyan Pavilion in Nanhe City. Although they have never met, Lu Qianmo still recognizes his past work ability.

"Pavilion Master Xie." Zhao Youwei let people serve tea, and then said, "I don't know why the pavilion master suddenly appeared in Nanhe City?" ”

"Passing by, let's take a look." Lu Qianmo took a sip of tea and continued, "Has Mo Jie appeared here recently?" "Since changing to the waterway, Lu Qianmo has not had any contact with Mo Yan Pavilion, and Mo Jie will definitely find a way to contact him after finishing his work.

"Mo Gongzi has indeed been to Nanhe City, but he has gone to Yicheng yesterday." Zhao Youwei replied.

It seems that Mo Jie's affairs are almost done, and he didn't meet himself in Nanhe City, so he took the lead in Yicheng. "Is there any important news from the Northern Desert?"

Zhao Youwei thought for a while and said, "The subordinates haven't received it here, if they really have important news coming, they must have sent it directly to Yicheng." ”

"Hmm. Where is Zhixi now? "Zhi Xi is mainly responsible for Dongyue's affairs in Moyan Pavilion, and his status is equal to that of Murong Ze.

"The Lord is in Wing City at the moment." Zhao Youwei replied.

"You send a message to him for me, saying that I am about to arrive in Yicheng, and ask him to find a house in Yicheng, where is this house...... It is best to be close to the Yunbohou Mansion. Besides, he doesn't have to look for me, and when the time comes, I'll go to him. "Mo Jie will definitely go to Zhixi when he goes to Yicheng and send the news himself, so as not to worry the other party.

"Subordinates receive orders."

"Another thing, I was passing through the town of Hexiang in Uehara City, where it rained heavily for many days, causing flooding. When I left, I didn't get in touch with the people in Uehara Castle, so you sent someone to deliver a letter and ask them to do their part to deal with the disaster in Hexiang Town, as they had done in the past. At the same time, let people check whether there are any suspicious people in and out of Hexiang Town during this period, and pass it on to Zhixi after there is news. ”

"Recently, there has been news in Yicheng about the flood in Hexiang Town, presumably someone did it on purpose."

Lu Qianmo understood what Zhao Youwei meant, the news of the flood did not pass through Nanhe City from Shangyuan City, but appeared in Yicheng first, and someone must have deliberately spread this news.

"I see."

Seeing that Lu Qianmo had nothing to explain, Zhao Youwei said, "Is the pavilion master staying here tonight?" The subordinates have asked people to clean up the courtyard for the pavilion master to rest. ”

"No, I'll walk with others, settle down at the inn, and I'll leave tomorrow if nothing happens."

Hearing this, Zhao Youwei said: "In this way, the subordinates will not keep the pavilion master." What the cabinet master just explained, his subordinates will do it immediately. ”

"Then I'll take my leave."

"Congratulations to the Pavilion Master."

……

Lu Qianmo returned to the inn, asked the shopkeeper to prepare hot water, and after taking a hot bath, his body became more and more heavy, and he fell asleep after going to bed. Yun Moxi is right, riding a horse for days and days, and urgently need to catch up on sleep is her style.

The next day, the unexpected green shadow came knocking on the door without coming early in the morning. By the time Lu Qianmo woke up naturally, it was almost noon. Lu Qianmo thought, Xu is about to arrive in Yicheng, and there is still some time before the Mid-Autumn Festival, so Yun Moxi is not in a hurry.

After lunch, the group prepared to leave the inn. As soon as she walked to the door, Lu Qianmo saw Yun Moxi's carriage and her horse.

Seeing this, Lu Qianmo went up and gave the horse a bear hug, "Yeli, I miss me to death." I haven't seen you for many days, can you miss me? ”

Seeing Lu Qianmo at night, he rubbed his head on his body affectionately to express his affection.

Lu Qianmo smoothed Yeli's hair with his hand, and said, "I won't ride you today, I'll give you a holiday, and I'll take a carriage." Then he got into the carriage first. Yun Moxi's carriage is as comfortable as it is, so that she will not be stupid to ride a horse.

Qingying was still driving outside the car, while Yun Moxi, Lu Qianmo and Shen Ling were sitting in the car, following behind the carriage at night. The group left Nanhe City and headed towards Yicheng.

Inside the carriage.

"Sister Mo, your horse looks beautiful and majestic, and its temperament is different from Dongyue's horse." Shen Ling exclaimed.

Lu Qianmo smiled slightly and explained: "This is the sweat and blood of the Northern Desert, and ordinary horses are naturally incomparable. ”

"Ling'er likes Yeli very much, and she also likes this name."

This guy is small, but he has a good vision. "When you can ride a horse in the future, my sister will find a way to give you one."

"Really?" Shen Ling's eyes lit up and he asked.

However, without waiting for Lu Qianmo to speak, Yun Moxi opened his mouth and said: "This horse is the best among the sweat and blood horses, it is exclusive to the Northern Desert royal family, ordinary people can't get it, even the Dongyue royal family only has two." However, Yu Wenhan, the second prince of the Northern Desert, has a deep friendship with you, and this matter must be very easy for you. ”

Although Yun Moxi's words were correct, how could Lu Qianmo feel strange when he heard this tone? "What? Do you want a horse too? ”

Yun Moxi's eyes drooped slightly, and said: "Although it is the best, after all, it is just someone else's thing, and I am not interested."

So? What are you doing with so much yin and yang? Be all abroad. Lu Qianmo didn't want to talk to Yun Mo more, so he sat in a corner and closed his eyes to recuperate.

Shen Ling looked at Yun Moxi inexplicably, and then at Lu Qianmo, why did he feel that the atmosphere was a little weird inexplicably? But I can't say what's wrong. In the end, he was smart enough to remain silent.

I don't know how long it took, the three people in the car kept their eyes closed, Qingying also felt that the car was unusually quiet outside the car, and he didn't know the truth, thinking that the three people in the car were sleeping.

However, Shen Ling was really asleep, and the remaining two deliberately did not want to take the lead in dealing with each other. But when the carriage was getting closer and closer to Yicheng, Lu Qianmo realized that he couldn't go on like this, and this was not the time to be emotional.

So, Lu Qianmo secretly thought about countless ways in his heart, thinking about how to break the silence first. After thinking about it, there was no way she liked, and in the end she could only grit her teeth and be cheeky and use the worst but effective method.
