Chapter Forty-Eight: The White Tiger National Teacher
Sable was about to reach out to take it, but Lin Fei grabbed it into her palm and retracted it: "Wait, it seems to listen to you, this gold bead for a bowl of tea for you, it seems that we are too two hundred and fifty." Boss, I'm generous, but I'm not a fool, it just so happens that my brother is a guy who likes to hear interesting things. If you tell us all the interesting things in the virtuous capital in recent days, it will be regarded as a reward for us to tell us a piece of books. ”
Sable scratched her head and said worriedly: "I'm just a tea stall, and I make a living by taking advantage of this crowded place, how can I say anything." He paused, thought for a moment and said, "If you want to talk about the interesting things in the virtuous capital recently, it is the ghost king marrying a daughter." In the past few days, many people of other races like you have come. ”
Lin Fei and Zhu Miao glanced at each other, and Zhu Miao asked, "The boss has seen the people of Meizu?"
Sable shook her head and said, "The ghost people have always avoided the sun, and the little old man has never seen it. ”
Lin Fei saw that his eyes flickered, and there seemed to be a trace of hesitation between his words, so he took out another gold bead, generously put the two grains of gold on another table, and said: "Don't hide it from the boss, we are looking for a friend of Meizu, if there is some news, you may as well tell it, there will be a heavy thanks." ”
Sable glanced at the gold, swallowed a mouthful of saliva, and said with a sneer: "The distinguished guest is so generous. He thought for a while and said: "I'm not afraid of the jokes of the two, I have a good friend in Xiandu City, a chef, a flower girl, and stays in Chunshan Tower, which ranks second in Xiandu City." A few days ago, when I met her, I heard her mention that Chunshan Building was closed for a few days to entertain distinguished guests, and they were busy all day, but they did not see distinguished guests come to the door, but the boss mysteriously asked them to prepare the meal, and then they could go home. ”
"Based on the vision and experience that my little old man has cultivated on this road over the years, I guess that this noble guest is probably a nocturnal ghost and ghost clan. The distinguished guests who can be received by the Chunshan Building must have a high status. That's all I say, if you two believe in the little old man, go quickly. If you don't believe me, I'll give this bowl of tea to the two of you. Sable shook her head while cleaning up the fragments of the table and said, "The two of you paying for a bowl of tea was an introduction, but it scared the little old man's soul half away, and it was not worth it." ”
"The owner was offended. Lin Fei threw the gold bead to Sable, smiled at him, and pulled Zhu Miao away.
The color of that smile shook the sable a little dizzy, and she looked at the back of the two of them for a long time, and then remembered to put the gold in her teeth and bite it, while sighing: "What a stunning little lady, if you don't transform into a shape and use some ginger water and charcoal ink to deliberately stain your eyebrows and eyes, even if you meet the first Oiran Nihuang in Xiandu, you may not be able to lose the battle, but unfortunately there is a fierce god next to you, and I only hate that I have no blessing to touch ......."
Although Zhu Miao had been ridiculed by the other three for being dull to Lin Fei's identity as the opposite sex, he was actually an extremely sensitive ear and eye, and even though he had walked a hundred meters at this time, Sable's words were still heard word by word.
He frowned, and said to Lin Fei: "You go for a while, I'll go for convenience." ”
Lin Fei looked at him and said, "Didn't that old man just speak lightly to your lady, and you are going to beat up someone?"
Zhu Miao said: "How can your husband be such a narrow-minded person! When I said it again, you had told me again and again that I should not cause trouble. ”
Lin Fei nodded and said, "Not bad." There you go. I'll wait for you at the entrance to the city. ”
Lin Fei waited for a short time at the entrance to the city, and sure enough, Zhu Miao came later, looking refreshed. Naturally, they went to Chunshan Tower. When it comes to the territory of the White Tiger, they have to keep a low profile. A huge virtuous capital, although it is not as magnificent as the Blue Dragon Palace in the sky and the glory of the Vermilion Bird Palace, it is lively and lively, but only the royal city in the world can be compared with it. The singing tower dances, the red sleeves dance in a variety of ways, the pearls are Luoqi, the eyes are overwhelmed, the incense carts on the street are flowing, rubbing shoulders and rubbing heels, endlessly. Probably because of this recent happy event, this prosperity is already full of flowers, and now it is even more popular.
When did Zhu Miao see this excitement, and several times he almost collided with someone because of his distraction, Lin Fei had to pull him, inquire about the location of Chunshan Tower, and then hurried as low-key as possible.
After all, Chunshan Building is the second restaurant in Xiandu, and the location is not difficult to find, but sure enough, it hung up the sign of closing the door in broad daylight. They knocked on the door for a long time before a skinny monkey man came out, and when he pointed impatiently at the sign, he closed the door with a bang.
Lin Fei was a little annoyed, with her temper there were nothing more than two kinds: taking money and smashing it with force. She discussed with Zhu Miao which one to use.
Zhu Miao, who was familiar with her temperament, stopped and said: "Wait a minute, they want to receive distinguished guests, naturally our money is not scarce, and it seems that the movement is too big and it is not appropriate to use force." Since Meizu is going to be active at night, we might as well wait. ”
Lin Fei nodded and said, "It's better for you to think safely." ”
Lin Fei then went around Chunshan Tower, and saw that there was a two-story building opposite, and there was a word "dang" hanging at the door. She rolled her eyes and thought about it, so she swaggered in, took out a gold brick and threw it to the owner of the pawnshop: "Borrow your shop for three days, this will be regarded as interest." Don't talk too much, take your buddies, hurry up, and come back in three days to collect the shop and capital. The black dog owner and his men in the pawnshop immediately disappeared.
Zhu Miao originally thought that she was lurking on the eaves of a certain place and waiting for night to fall before eavesdropping on the news, but who knew that Lin Fei was so flamboyant and said that she was low-key and safe?
Just as he was secretly complaining, Lin Fei, who was walking around in the backyard of the shop, brought two pieces of clothes, changed into a set for himself, threw a set to Zhu Miao, copied the handle of the fan and took up the posture, turned into the appearance of the black dog boss, raised his voice, and shouted: "Man, serve tea." ”
There is no one in the stall who loves to act like a lady, so Zhu Miao had to put on the guy's clothes and dress up in the same way. He stood at the front desk for a while, then ran to the courtyard and reported to the boss with a sad face: "A beast just came to redeem the gems and jewelry that was here a few days ago, and two beasts brought some spirit fruit pawns, and they are waiting in front, how to deal with them? ”
Lin Fei thought for a while and said, "You don't have to bother going through the account books of the black dog boss." Since we want to open the door to do business, we have to be like this, so let's do it, whoever comes to redeem it, you go to the backyard warehouse to rummage through the pawns, pick up a piece of value far and give it out, and if anyone comes to pawn, you ask them how much they want to be, and then double the money in the box to pay, so that you probably don't recognize that there will be an opinion. ”
If you change the gluttony of managing the financial accounts, you will definitely hate her at this time. Fortunately, Zhu Miao was indifferent in this regard, so she obediently sighed and was busy dealing with the guests.
That night, when Lin Fei closed the shop door, the two went up to the second floor, sat until the moon rose, and listened attentively to the movement in the Chunshan Building.
In the middle of the night, the street was silent, and the husband knocked on the watch, only to hear the slight neighing of horses from far and near, and a carriage fell from the sky and landed silently at the door of the Chunshan Tower. As if disturbed, the lights of the Chunshan Tower turned on in an instant, and the lights were bright, and the gate opened a gap for one person to pass through as if it were welcome.
The curtain of the carriage lifted, and a figure in a white cloak crept down, flying like a feather into the door, and then closed the door tightly.
Lin Fei looked through the gap in a window, and saw that the horse pulling the carriage, in addition to having a pair of wings, also had a sharp horn on his forehead, and suddenly remembered a person, and his heart was puzzled.
Zhu Miao told Lin Fei what she had heard.
As soon as the visitor entered the hall, it seemed that several people greeted him and greeted him respectfully: "National teacher." ”
The person known as the "National Teacher" said a little anxiously: "It's been three days, and you haven't found the Dead Lady yet? The auspicious day is approaching, and I see that when you don't hand over your relatives, you will lose the face of the two clans, and I am afraid that the wishful thinking of the ghost king will also come to naught." I have been ordered to receive the distinguished guests of the patriarchs of all parties, and now that the distinguished guests have arrived, this bride has disappeared, what kind of system has become?"
She spoke very directly, which embarrassed the people on the spot for a while. One of them said with a shy face: "We are already looking for it! It's just that this princess has a special identity, and we can't search for it in a big way, so it's naturally a little difficult." Your old man is deeply relied on, and please drag it for us in front of the White Tiger King to buy us some time. The Ghost King must be grateful to your old man!"
It seems that the three words "old man" have stimulated the national teacher, and this one slapped the table and sneered and said angrily: "Before you begged me, I have delayed the time to enter the palace because of the slight health of the Stygian, what is it now, do you know how much risk I take for you!"
When Lin Fei heard this, if this national teacher was really the one she guessed, this fart must have been slapped on the horse's leg, what woman would like others to claim that she is an old man?!
The national teacher over there was obviously going to leave angrily, and he was begged by several people for a while and finally left a few harsh words: "At most two days, before the concubine gets married, she must enter the palace to meet her, otherwise it will be uncourteous." I have ordered people to ban the ghosts and ghosts at the four gates of Xiandu City, and strengthened night patrols, and it is expected that she is still in the city at the moment. ”
These people are overjoyed and thankful.
The national teacher was impatient to walk to the door and said: "I have an old relationship with the Xuanwu priest, and this time it can be regarded as a personal favor for him, and the two are clear." Then he went out and got into the carriage, and rose into the air as he had come, and disappeared into the night.
The lights of Chunshan Tower are still on, and most of the people who are left behind have sad and complaining words, most of them say how willful the daughter of this ghost king is, how difficult their current situation is, and so on.
Lin Fei was not interested in hearing it anymore, obviously the two most important news were already in front of her: first, the daughter of the Ghost King, the wife of General Zuo of the White Tiger Clan, who had not passed through the door, was missing in Xiandu; The one pulling the carriage was clearly her former mount, the water beast.
She remembered that Huang Liang mentioned that Langhuan Palace was closed, and thought that the bishops did not want to stay in the palace, so they left by themselves. This Feixi originally belonged to the White Tiger clan, and it was also suitable to be the national teacher, but here and now, thinking of all kinds of entanglements in the past, I always feel that the road is a little narrow.
And stimulated by the identity of this person, she suddenly missed the unparalleled figure in her memory like a flame dancing wildly-Teacher Beauty, I don't know where he is. With his temperament, he will never be a courtier, although this world is big, how many people can get a real leisure? Just think about it, and fall into a deep loneliness.
