Chapter 191: The Underworld Arms Deal
At this juncture, he can't make any more movements, and if his father detects it, the gains outweigh the losses!
He was just curious, if among these people, there was really a detailed topographical map of Eagle Peak Mountain, what was the difference between it and the half volume in his hand?
Or is there no need to go through the trouble of finding the second half of the book with this?
Wen Shumin looked at the calculating light that flashed on the eldest prince's face, and she was also puzzled in her heart.
Who sent her this message tonight? Obviously, that person also knew that the eldest prince would appear and what was the purpose of coming here, so she would report the matter to the palace!
What was even stranger was that the man knew what was in her heart, and the words made it impossible for her to refuse, and did so as he meant in his letter!
Li Quan ordered people to go in and count the number of people, and after getting the list of everyone, he had no intention of leaving.
He wanted to see if Wen Shumin had deceived him, if no one came to the palace for a while, he would definitely take these people away!
Even if it was someone from the Wen family who came for a while, without the will of the palace, he would not let her take people away!
This Wen Shumin has repeatedly opposed him, but he just relies on the emperor's importance to the Wen family.
Now that the prince has personally denied the matter of establishing a concubine in front of so many people, I don't know what she is proud of here?
Now that his people have broken into the side of the crown prince and Dongfang Yu, he believes that it will not be long before the Wen family will be unstable.
"The Divine Decree has arrived!"
As this voice sounded, Li Quan, Wen Shumin and others got off their horses and knelt down to receive the order.
"The emperor decreed that the daughter of the Wenfu should start to investigate this matter thoroughly and bring all the people back, there must be no mistakes, please do this!"
"Courtier, take the order! Long live my emperor, long live, long live! ”
"Yo, the eldest prince is also there?"
"Grandpa Deng."
"The eldest prince, the queen seems to be inquiring about your news, the matter here will be handled by Miss Wen, can you go back to the palace with the old slave?"
Li Quan saw Gonggong Deng's quietly giving him a look, and raised his long arm: "Go back to the palace!"
He didn't get on the horse, but made a gesture of please: "Grandpa Deng, please!"
The two walked side by side, and it wasn't until they walked out of a distance that Gonggong Deng looked at the state of no one around, and then spoke again.
"The eldest prince is in a hurry tonight."
"What do you mean by what Gonggong Deng said?"
"This matter has now reached the ears of the emperor, the emperor is furious, the eldest prince appears here at this time, what do you think the emperor will think?"
Li Quan frowned, with a gloomy look on his face: "How could the Wen family know about this?"
"Recently, the city has not been peaceful, and the puppet people's affairs are getting more and more serious, so the eldest prince has to be cautious in his words and deeds!"
Li Quan did not look dissatisfied with Gonggong Deng's advice, but smiled.
"Thank you Gonggong Deng for reminding me, tonight the prince came to stop the dog official from persecuting the people, and there is no other meaning, and I hope that the father-in-law can truthfully tell his father and the emperor~"
The end of his words is a little longer, which is very thought-provoking to think about the meaning of his words.
Gonggong Deng had been taken care of by Empress Chen before, so he was naturally towards him, otherwise he would not have advised him so bitterly.
This big night from the palace to the suburbs of the city in the mountains, for him a eunuch galloping on horseback, it is to kill him!
"Great prince, please rest assured, the old slave knows what to do."
"Then there is Father-in-law Lao."
"It should."
Li Quan looked at Gonggong Deng, who was on the horse and leaving, standing in the night breeze, with dark clouds surging on his face!
"The eldest prince, who did you say that this rumor came out tonight, and it made such a big fuss?"
"No matter who came out, this person's purpose is to provoke the confrontation between the prince and the prince's forces, and he actually knows that he is tired of using the emperor to suppress the prince!"
"The eldest prince, the person who sent you the message for the first time will be the one who spread the news?"
"It's not her!"
Li Quan said very firmly, and then seemed to think of something, and wondered: "Could it be him?"
"Does the eldest prince suspect who it is? Do you need to send someone to check it? ”
Li Quan waved his hand: "It's not a very serious matter, so there is no need."
He looked at the roster in his arms, and then ordered: "Go and see where the martial girl is, so that she can come to this prince in time."
"Yes."
"How many people do you leave to watch where the Wen family will settle after bringing these people back, and what will happen after that, you should know what to do, right?"
"Yes."
"This matter cannot be made public, let alone the Wen family can be noticed."
"The eldest prince, please rest assured, you know what to do!"
"Good, go ahead! Others, immediately return to the palace with this prince! ”
On the side of the broken temple, a guard came to Wen Shumin's side: "Miss, the eldest prince's men and horses have all returned to the palace."
"Well, then without further ado, count the number of people and prepare to go back to the city!"
"Miss, just now there is news from the city that His Royal Highness the Crown Prince has left the palace!"
Wen Shumin paused when he got on the horse, and looked at him with a slight frown: "Is His Highness a person?"
"Not this time, it seems to have brought a lot of people."
"And where did he go?"
"It seems to be over there on Yong'an Street."
"Wing On Street?"
Wen Shumin's brows furrowed even more: "Isn't that the place where the news of the puppet people came out these days?"
"Yes, Miss, you said that His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is going to personally investigate the affairs of that puppet man, right? Isn't it that the trials are not over yet, why is he in such a hurry? ”
Wen Shumin turned over and got on the horse neatly: "Don't say so much, hurry back to the city!"
......
At this time in the city, Lee Jung-hyuk was searching the city with a large number of people.
"You all scattered to look for it, you must find people back as soon as possible, you know if there is any!"
"Yes!"
After Lee Jung-hyuk gave the order majestically and personally, he also patrolled along Yongan Street with a cold expression!
That girl is really getting bolder and bolder, but when she meets her father, she disappears!
After his repeated search and investigation in the palace, he learned that she may have left the palace!
Now that the city is in such chaos, she must have left the palace because of the puppet man's affairs, otherwise he couldn't think of any other reason.
But the puppet thing, where can her little girl find out? His father didn't know what he had said to her, which was really worrying.
When he gets her back, he must talk to her properly!
"Fifth brother, why are you here?"
"Did anyone show up?"
"Not yet, there is still some time in the ion time, I think it should be soon."
Nan Xiaowu nodded, looked at the dark and oppressive jungle around him, and handed Ah Guo a note: "You go here and get back the things I brought out of the palace."
"Now?"
"Hmm."
"Fifth brother, it's going to be time soon, why don't I wait until the deal is over?"
"I'll be enough for me here, you go first."
Ah Guo was obviously a little reluctant, but he couldn't stand Nan Xiaowu's momentum, so he had to accept and leave.
Nan Xiaowu looked at the direction of several entrances in the jungle at night, it was very quiet and weird!
She picked up a stone from the ground and struck it at the bushes not far away, making a loud noise, but not a single night bird was startled!
Her eyes lit up, and she walked over directly, looking around at the position agreed by both parties.
In the darkness of the night, her eyes scanned the jungle, and her ears were engrossed in the movement.
After the lap, Nan Xiaowu raised his lips and smiled: "Since it is time to trade, is Your Excellency not going to show up yet?"
Her voice was clear and impactful, echoing through the jungle.
When her aftermath fell, the jungle fell into a dead silence again.
After a long time
"The girl is very punctual!"
The male voice that suddenly came sounded behind Nan Xiaowu's right, and she didn't rush to turn around and look.
Because there was no fire on the person who came, the jungle was still dark, and even if she turned her head to look, she couldn't see the person's appearance when she thought about it!
"Doing business is naturally about integrity, I don't know if Your Excellency brought what I wanted?"
Nan Xiaowu slowly turned around and looked at the few people who were pressed by the black.
"Naturally! Is the girl's money ready as required? ”
"I wonder why Your Excellency doesn't want silver tickets and gold, but this broken silver?"
"It's not something you buyers should ask."
The man looked behind Nan Xiaowu: "You're alone?"
"How? Not alone? ”
"Heh, do this kind of business, dare to come to the appointment alone, you are still the first person!"
"Then I heard your Excellency say this, you have already made more than one transaction?"
"Of course. Our business is done all over the country, and it is not just your order. ”
"How about I negotiate a bigger deal with you?"
"One yard to one yard, tonight only to talk about tonight's business, if the girl wants to talk about other business, please make another appointment!"
"Then I don't know, I want to talk about other business, how can I make an appointment with you?"
"Then it depends on whether we have a good deal tonight!"
"Yes, pay the money with one hand and deliver the goods with the other, right?"
"Swap places, you come here."
The man looked at the box next to Nan Xiaowu, Nan Xiaowu looked at the cart behind them, and the two of them switched places.
While they were checking the money, Nan Xiaowu also touched the gunpowder in the box, and his eyes tightened! ...
"The girl is an honest person, and before that, she could get it when there was such a shortage of broken silver, and she had some ability."
Nan Xiaowu closed the box and chuckled: "So, I don't know if the transaction with Your Excellency tonight is quite pleasant?"
"Does the girl still want gunpowder?"
"Yes! No matter how many of you there are, I want them! ”
"I'm sorry girl, our boss has a rule that a person can only do one arms deal."
"Then what Your Excellency just promised, are you playing tricks?"
"Naturally not, in addition to gunpowder, our boss also has other cloth and jewelry businesses, the world's rare treasures, in our boss's place, there is nothing you can't buy."
"I don't need those things, so there's no other way to talk to your boss and sell me some more gunpowder?"
"I'm sorry, girl. This is our rule, and we can't change it! ”
"I suppose your boss is afraid that people will find out that he is smuggling these arms, right?"
The man's voice was a little sharper: "Girl, you crossed the line!"
"Otherwise, why don't you want silver tickets and gold, isn't it because the broken silver has no provenance?"
"It's useless for the girl to speculate here, anyway, please abide by our rules, if you break the rules, what will happen, but there is no guarantee!"
"Are you threatening me?"
"Girl, I'm just talking to you about principles. There are no rules, if everyone is as greedy as you, girl, I'm afraid this business will not be good! ”
"The rules are set by people, I haven't seen it, who would be disgusted with more money?"
"Today's deal is done, we have to go back to our lives, so let's leave it at that!"
