Chapter 284: Righteous Name Spirit Jade Pavilion (5)
The late work was quite smooth, and when I saw him anxiously riding a horse, far away, he shouted: "I see the princess of Tianlong." ”
There were many people outside the City Lord's Mansion, and the leading few were shouting: "Oppose the indiscriminate killing of innocents, and the princess of Tianlong will come out to explain." The people of Handu are not lambs, and they are not to be slaughtered at will. ”
The crowd in the back echoed a few times at will, and everyone shouted that they were tired. The leader told them: "Don't slack off, you can't sleep, she will only come out." ”
And that's when I arrived late. Everyone turned their heads to look at the voice.
Running late to the front of the crowd, panting, repeating again: "I saw the princess of Tianlong, outside the city." ”
The leading guy scolded: "Nonsense, that Chu pity is in this city lord's mansion, and someone saw them hiding in it." ”
Late looked aggrieved: "I'm not talking nonsense, didn't you see a big black shadow rising in the city lord's mansion? I was in Fengqi City before, and I saw that they bought a purple gold wind carving, I don't know what evil magic she used, she was able to control this war beast, she had already flown out of the city on the wind carving." It was because I saw the dark shadow that I became suspicious, so I went to lead the horses out of the city, and sure enough, he set up a tent on the road outside the city, made a bonfire, and was waiting for something alone. ”
After finishing speaking, the crowd began to talk a lot, and they did see something flying out of the city lord's mansion, but on this big night, no one could see clearly, only heard a bird's call, and the sound of the whirring wind came. When you think about it, it's really possible.
The leader said: "I actually know about her purchase of the Purple Gold Wind Eagle, it seems that what you said is true, how should this be good, the Wind Eagle flies, no one can catch up." ”
Late said no, said that the wind eagle looked weak, and that it was no longer capable of flying, if it wasn't for the fear that he wouldn't be able to beat her, he would have taken her out.
The leader nodded: "Yes, the wind eagle is very weak, and it was purchased from ordinary villagers. Even the villagers can catch it, and it seems that it is already extremely weak. Even if Na Chu took pity on the best beast pill, it would not be possible to let it recover completely. Let's go out of the city and ask the princess for an explanation. All the warriors follow me, and the others stay here to continue to do justice. ”
After the leader finished speaking, he hurriedly led the people to run. And at this time, in an alley not far from the City Lord's Mansion, Chu took pity on them and hid here.
Chu pityfully poked Xiang Bei: "No, there are so many people, your idea is not reliable." ”
Xiang Bei told her that it was okay, the leaders were gone, who was really staying here on this big night, and it would be time to withdraw in a while. It is estimated that these people are all group performers who have received salaries, and they should all leave when it gets dark without salaries, or they can't be the only ones. Now there is nothing else in this wasted city, but there are many idlers, and the number of people in the day is at least five times as high. The popularity is built up by these group performances.
Chu agreed pitifully, saying that there were indeed many more people than this person, and it was called a sea of people, and he was deaf when he was scolded, and he had never been scolded like this.
Xiang Bei comforted: "Don't worry, how do they scold you now, I will scold you back for you when the time comes." ”
"Don't, don't get into trouble with them. ”
"I have counted. ”
Xiang Bei was right, as soon as he finished speaking, someone began to sneak away. Of course, there are also people who stop it, it is those who are dead-eyed, thinking that they have to work hard after taking the money. But it didn't work much, and everyone still had to go back to sleep. So walk around, and in the end it's all gone.
Seeing that everyone was gone, Chu took pity to take them to the door of the City Lord's Mansion, and there was no response when he slapped the door. Chu pity the embarrassment: "I told them, no one is allowed to open the door, and now I shut myself out." ”
Xiang Bei glanced at the wind and thunder, and the wind and thunder went over the wall. There was a sound of talking from inside, and soon the door opened, and a group of people got inside.
In the guest hall, the city lord of Xudu City and Hao Pang and them, as well as Zheng Fengshou and the second prince of Weiguo Lou were all here, seeing them come back, Hao Pang spoke: "Sir, you are finally back, I am about to be quarreled to death." How did you do it, it was actually cleaned up outside. ”
"It's just a little trick, and now they are not sure if the princess is still here. Tomorrow, Lord of the City, you go and tell them that the princess has left. Tell them that the princess has left a message, and that she will give them an account within five days. If it can't be done, Chu Yi, the second prince of the Tianlong Kingdom, is willing to kill himself and spend time in the city. ”
Chu Yi looked confused: "Why me?"
Chu pityfully slapped him: "It's not that you don't have enough weight, tomorrow you will come forward with the city lord and promise them on the spot that you will not go anywhere in this city lord's mansion, and you will show up every day to confirm it, so that they have no reason to make a fuss, a prince is worth more than a princess." ”
Chu Yi nodded: "Okay, aunt, you won't care if I live or die." ”
"You nonsense, I'm here too, and I won't really leave. Lao Xiang continued. Chu pity felt that Xiang Bei was reliable, and with the second prince coming forward to guarantee his life, those people would definitely be able to stop.
Xiang Bei looked at Zheng Fengshou: "The matter of the princess doing the Lingyu Pavilion in Handu, even the king doesn't know. If these people can get the news, it must be the problem of these people in your Weiguo Building. Have you noticed any of these people who are abnormal?"
Zheng Fengshou shook his head, saying that he couldn't think of it.
"Then let me put it another way, after you found out that there were rumors about the Spirit Jade Pavilion in this city, did you decide to suppress the rumors?"
Zheng Fengshou said no, he didn't dare to decide at will, he always felt that there were other things behind him, and he thought that he was asking the princess. However, the second prince was indignant and wanted to .......
Before Zheng Fengshou finished speaking, the second prince raised his hand: "Wronged, aunt, I am purely angry, I don't want you to be smeared for doing good deeds, aunt." In the end, I still respected the decision of the third floor lord and did not mess around. ”
Chu smiled pitifully: "Will I doubt you, Lord Zheng is saying good things for you, if he doesn't say this, can I know that your nephew still cares so much about you and me? No matter how stupid Master Zheng is, he won't point to you, just help you express your concern for me, you have to thank him." ”
The second prince let out a sigh and glanced at Zheng Fengshou gratefully. He has never been praised by Chu for his coldness, and this time he finally made up for it.
Chu pity continued to ask Zheng Fengshou: "You should still have found something, right?"
Zheng Fengshou replied: "Mr. Xiang's question is very good, who opened this first is the key." I didn't order the rumors to be blocked, but one person made his own claim, and when he heard someone talking about it in the restaurant, he shot and injured the person, and also released the word, no one is allowed to say bad things about the Lingyu Pavilion again, that is simply a disguised admit, the Lingyu Pavilion is the same as the rumors. ”
"Who is it?"
"A man named Jiansheng, no one in the family has an official position, but his father is a wealthy merchant in Tianlong, the owner of the Jilong firm. There were no rights, but almost all the officials were regulars in his home. In addition to the Feng family, the people of the Feng family are not close to businessmen, this is the rule of the Feng family. ”
Xiang Bei looked at Feng Yilei: "You kid has violated the law, and my Xiang Mansion is also in business." ”
Feng Yilei said that it doesn't count, Xiangfu's business is a sideline, and the identity of the head of the family is the princess's strategist, mainly depending on the main business, otherwise, there are a few officials in the palace who have no business at home, so no one can speak.
"Yes. Xiang Bei admitted.
