His Royal Highness the Crown Prince could only smile bitterly in his heart, pretending not to hear, staring at the shopkeeper and whispering: "Eight strokes are a hero." โ
This was a confusing sentence to others, but it was the secret words that Miss Fang gave to His Royal Highness the Prince, and sure enough, the shopkeeper of the brocade shop heard the words and said: "Hehe, what the guest officer wants to buy is the best southern forging yellow silk, please inside." โ
As soon as he stretched out his hand to lead the way, the guy in the store looked like this, and it was clear that the visitor in the red robe was a big buyer, and he was no longer pestering the old man at the moment.
The old man was obviously not interested in His Royal Highness the Crown Prince following the shopkeeper into the inner room, and followed as before, and began to walk around the shop with the wine jar.
It's not yet the fifteenth day of the month, so naturally it's not the day to make an appointment with the shopkeeper Fang, but the collected information can't be obtained, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince can take the initiative to ask: "I came to know the incident at the city gate before, and which prison the county official who dared to steal at the city gate was locked in." โ
There was nothing else to say, so His Royal Highness the Crown Prince asked straight to the point.
"It turns out that Childe wants to ask about this matter, and because many people have talked about it, I don't know what is going on. โ
As soon as the shopkeeper of the brocade shop said this, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince thought he was going to be disappointed, but the shopkeeper continued: "But you can guess one or two, what happened at the city gate was stealing again, and it was almost the prison in Dongfang District." โ
"Dongfang District. His Royal Highness the Crown Prince muttered in a low voice: "Ah, there is another thing to ask, that is, what has happened in this Xizhui recently?"
The reason why His Highness asked this was naturally the woman who was kidnapped at the inn that day, and the mountain bandit who was killed by a person on Eagle Ridge that day, and the two sentences he got, all of which made him feel that something big was going to happen in Xitui.
"If it's a big deal, it's only this thing......" said the shopkeeper after a moment's thought.
A quarter of an hour later.
"Thank you to the shopkeeper, there is nothing else to do, so I won't disturb the shopkeeper's busy business. His Royal Highness the Crown Prince knew what he wanted to know, and thanked him.
"It doesn't matter where the business is or not, if the son encounters other problems that cannot be solved, he can come to the next at any time. The shopkeeper's polite words, although he didn't know the identity of the person who came, but if he could be used, his status in the Fang family must not be low.
His Royal Highness the Crown Prince finished laughing, thanked him and walked out of the door, stretched out his hand and was about to push the door but suddenly woke up to an old man outside, smiled bitterly and turned his head and asked, "Shopkeeper, do you still have a back door to go out?"
He thought that he would get rid of the old man, but he didn't expect to be able to touch it in this shop, and the reckless and casual old man thought about it and gave His Royal Highness the Crown Prince a headache.
"Well, this don't hide from the son, this shop really doesn't have one. The shopkeeper said with a look of embarrassment.
"Okay. His Royal Highness the Crown Prince sighed, pushed the door open, and walked out.
When they came out, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince and the shopkeeper were a little dumbfounded, and the two men were chasing after the old man, running around the house, making a mess of the cloth shop, and the cloth brocade was scattered all over the ground.
In the small shop, the two of them couldn't catch the old man anyway, the old man jumped up and down with the wine jar, dodging left and right, and didn't forget to take a sip of wine while running, and his mouth was funny.
There were those who wanted to go into the shop to pick up something, and when they saw such a scene, they shook their heads in fright, turned around, and went out with a flick of their sleeves, and these people probably did not plan to come again for some time to come.
Although the shopkeeper told His Highness that he didn't care about any business or not, but when he saw that his good shop somehow became what it is now, he was also angry and yelled: "Enough!"
"Ha, boy, you're finally out, let's go, it's too boring to stay in this shop. The shopkeeper's shout still had some effect, at least the old man stopped running around, and a dodge jumped out of the gap between the two guys, leaving the two guys bumping into each other with a bang.
"You are really my uncle, you are ......" His Royal Highness the Crown Prince looked at the scene in front of him with a smile, and he didn't know what to say.
"Hahaha, don't get in the way, don't get in the way, these two kids want to play with me, so let's play with them. The old man waved his hand quite generously and said, in his opinion, the shop was made like this, it was just a joke.
"I'm sorry for the shopkeeper. "How can I say that this old man also knows himself, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince looked at the shopkeeper with some embarrassment and embarrassment.
"Oh, forget it, I'll just let these two guys clean up. The shopkeeper said with a reluctant smile, but looking at his expression, he seemed to have an unfinished sentence, that is, Childe, you should take this old man away quickly. After another confession, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince walked out of the shop quickly, and the old man naturally followed behind with a wine jug.
Why the shop was made like that, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince has no intention of knowing, and he just wants to use the old way to quickly get rid of the old man behind him.
However, what happened next once again left His Royal Highness the Crown Prince speechless.
No matter how he ran or went around, if the old man had not followed, he would have been in front, and he would have met him around the corner, sitting in front of the stone steps, or under the eaves, or in the corner of the wall, drinking the jar of fruit wine.
In this Pinghe City, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince can't carry Xuanyuan to run wildly, with the half-hanging level he learned from Luzhu, it seems that he can't get rid of this old man.
However, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince began to suspect that this old man might not be an ordinary person, because although he was at the level of a half-ass, he had easily thrown off the two masters' subordinates in Fengyu County before, but he couldn't get rid of such a white-haired old man.
After doing this several times, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince finally gave up, and he really didn't expect this old man to be so ghostly.
Standing still in front of the mouth of an alley, he exhaled lightly, stepped forward, and looked at the old man sitting cross-legged on several sandbags, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince showed his most kind smile and said, "Uncle, you are really my uncle, why do you always follow me?"
"Who followed you, this shows that we are fated, and we won't meet again. The old man retorted, even more determined that he did not follow His Royal Highness the Crown Prince.
"Hehe, hehe, then we are really fateful, the huge Pinghe City, I and you have met for the fifteenth time. His Royal Highness the Crown Prince said with a stiff smile.
"Sixteen times, sixteen times, less to say once, it was the first time at the door of the wine shop before, and you still invited me to drink. The old man smiled and said with no disdain, as if talking about wine, he raised his head and poured a big sip: "Ah, the wine is gone." โ
Crack, an accurate soft sound, it was the sound of the wine jar falling into the garbage corner at the end of the alley, sanwen ...... It's gone again. Looking for the sound, it was actually in the same place as the first wine jar.
In less than half an hour of admiring the old man, while drinking two jars of wine, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince was completely helpless against the old man, the smile on his face was closed, and he turned around and said coldly: "Okay, I plan to go to the prison now, uncle, if you want to follow, let's follow." โ
