"What the hell are you thinking?" Jiang Wenbing had already paced back and forth in the hall several times, his tone a little angry. "You said that you would exchange Jiang Chen's life for He Nan's surrender, and I reluctantly agreed...... But now that Jiang Chen is dead, He Nan is gone!"

"This mad dog raised by Li Mastiff!" Jiang Wenbing cursed.

Qi Dan, who was sitting in the center of the lobby, crossed Erlang's legs, supported his cheeks with one hand, and looked lazy. "Do you mean to blame me?" Qi Dan's usual expression was like this, and his face was full of "It's okay". Although Jiang Wenbing knew his friend very well, he couldn't help but feel a little sullen in his heart at this time.

Jiang Wenbing turned his head, glanced at Qi Dan, and replied, "Don't you think it...... You were put in a position by He's difficult?"

The lazy fifth prince picked up the tea cup on the table, blew lightly a few breaths, and took a small sip slowly before he spoke: "From this matter...... I'll admit I miscalculated. I originally thought that he was the kind of person who would do anything to climb up, so he would take the initiative to maneuver between me and Li Mastiff...... But I didn't expect him to be so ruthless, and actually give up the low-hanging glory and wealth ......"

"What the hell is he trying to do?! I've heard that he has a nickname called He Madman...... Is he really a madman? Whether it's you or Li Mastiff, you can give him countless glory and wealth. If he was smart enough, he could even find a gap between the two mountains, but he simply killed Jiang Chen, put you together, and then disappeared without a trace?"

Qi Dan smiled at Jiang Wenbing, and that smile made Jiang Wenbing feel creepy—Jiang Wenbing had almost never seen Qi Dan smile like this—when was the last time he laughed like this?

Jiang Wenbing remembered—a back covered in blood and a halberd body flashed in his mind. Cold sweat ran down his forehead, neck, and back. Could it be that in Qi Dan's heart, He Nan is similar to that person?

"You're wrong, it's not that He Nan doesn't have a purpose, but that he has too much purpose. I still underestimated him before, he is the kind of person who will not be willing to be a pawn for others...... Whether it is me or Li Mastiff, whoever he chooses can only be a pawn, and no matter how famous a pawn is, he can only be a pawn. So he didn't choose anyone, he chose himself. After laughing, Qi Dan explained Jiang Wenbing's confusion.

may not only be to solve Jiang Wenbing's doubts, but also to warn himself in this way.

His friend was still meditating in the hall, but Qi Dan had already run out of tea, got up and said, "I'm going to go out now to discuss some things with some people, and you can prepare some gifts for me and send them to the Hubu Shangshu Mansion." In the evening, you will come with me to visit Tobe Shoshu-sama. ”

Looking at Jiang Wenbing's somewhat complicated eyes, Qi Dan added: "Aren't you worried about where He Nan is going? ”

Qi Dan left the Hussar General's Mansion and went straight to the Goolan Tile and Yanliu Lane in Nanshi.

There is a famous green building in Baiyujing called "Acacia Pavilion", the girls of Acacia Pavilion are like flowers and jade, piano, chess, calligraphy and painting can do everything, blowing, playing and singing everything. And the rules here are also quite interesting, if you want to become a guest of the Acacia Pavilion, you must pass at least one of the four tests of "wealth, appearance, civil and military". Of course, wealth refers to financial resources, if you don't have money, what kind of green house do you visit, or where to stay cool. Of course, appearance refers to appearance, and the better the person, the more likable he is. The text is able to chant poetry and write poetry, and the writing is full of flowers, and martial arts naturally means martial arts. As for whether the girls are selling their arts or their bodies—it's all up to them, and if the guests who come here don't accept the trouble—the owner of the Acacia Pavilion is certainly not a vegetarian.

The legendary owner of Acacia Pavilion is called "Acacia Niangniang". It is said that this lovesick lady is over forty years old, but her appearance is as young and beautiful as a sixteen or seventeen-year-old girl. It is rumored that she was originally a wealthy businessman's daughter, more than 20 years ago and a Xiucai fell in love, and that Xiucai entered Beijing to achieve fame but did not come back, the people in her hometown said that the Xiucai abandoned her, she left her hometown and came to Baiyujing to establish this Acacia Pavilion, day and night looking forward to the king's return. Some people say that she is looking for her husband, some people say that she built the Qinglou to take revenge on her lover, some people say that she is just a maiko who has fallen into the dust, and some people say that this little girl is not the woman in the story at all, but the Xiucai and her child...... There are different opinions, and the truth is only known to Acacia Niangniang herself, and Acacia Niangniang rarely mentions this matter with others.

Although Acacia Niangniang is the owner of Acacia Pavilion, she rarely shows up in front of everyone, and most of the troubles are made by her stewards, and these stewards are a little green in the flowers - among them there is a man in his forties, this man is called "Ghost Second Master", in Acacia Pavilion can be called the existence of one person, usually when encountering guests to make trouble, he will come forward to solve it.

The purpose of Qi Dan's coming here today is this ghost second master.

Qi Dangui is the fifth prince of the fifth prince, and he has a body of ten thousand gold, how can he reveal his identity at will? He likes to wear white clothes and likes white, and he often uses a pseudonym called "Bai Wugeng" outside. At this time, it was afternoon, and many girls were taking a nap, but as soon as the steward and the girls of Acacia Pavilion heard that Bai Gongzi was coming, they hurriedly ran downstairs to watch, as if they had seen something strange.

Why did "Bai Gongzi" cause such a big shock in Acacia Pavilion? Of course, it was because he was an extraordinary person and had done something extraordinary. First, Bai Gongzi has good financial resources, appearance, and literary talent, and has passed three tests in a row, and is still the top three on the three lists of wealth, appearance, and literature. Second, Bai Gongzi has a gentle temperament like jade, suave and talented, which makes many girls feel spring and sincerely admire him. Thirdly, he also left a good story of "a drunk light prince", just like the legendary unequaled prince and Chengyun immortal.

All in all, this Bai Gongzi is simply the big money owner of the entire Acacia Pavilion, a big red man, and everyone loves him here;

Bai Gongzi's visit, of course, was greeted by the second ghost master himself. This ghost second master was born thin and dry, with a green face and eyes, which is also in line with the nickname of this "ghost second master". Bai Gongzi ignored the secret send-off of the warblers and Yanyan, but arched his hand at the second ghost master and said, "Second ghost master, please talk about it in the pavilion." When the second ghost heard this, his face changed slightly, so he drove the girls and the stewards away, and led Bai Gongzi to the top of the Acacia Pavilion.

The two entered the pavilion, and the second ghost carefully closed the door, turned around and bowed respectfully to Qi Dan, knocked a few times, and said humbly: "The minister knocks to see His Royal Highness the Fifth Prince." “

Qi Dan waved his hand at him, signaling that he didn't need to engage in all this red tape, "Get up." “

This ghost second master is the one who set up eyeliner to keep an eye on He Nan a few days ago. His real identity is Chi Zebao, one of the four directors of the "Tiger Leopard and Bear Guard" of the Sky Guard.

Many people only know that Chi Zebao is lustful, and he lingers in the strange place of Fireworks Alley every day, but they don't know that he doesn't like women at all.

The land of fireworks is the easiest to cause trouble and the easiest to gossip, which is the reason why Chi Zebao chose to become the second master of the big housekeeper in one of the most famous green buildings in the capital - Acacia Pavilion. And in this world, it is known that the second master of the ghost and Chi Zebao are the same person, but there are only two hands.

Qi Dan sat on the main seat, looked at Chi Zebao who was standing tremblingly on the side, and asked, "A few days ago, I asked you to keep an eye on He Nan, how did you star?" As far as I know, he hasn't shown up for several days. ”

As soon as he heard this, Chi Zebao knew that His Royal Highness the Fifth Prince had come to ask him about his master, and some fine beads of sweat appeared on his forehead, and he said embarrassedly: "The ones I sent out to keep an eye on...... I haven't been in touch for days. ”

Qi Dan squinted his eyes slightly and looked at Chi Zebao's face, "What about people, don't tell me that you don't even know whether these people are dead or alive." ”

Chi Zebao was already over forty years old, but in front of this young man who was only half his age, he was like a frightened bird, he only felt that the eyes of the five princes were like two mountains, and they pressed down on him with the power of thunder.

"Hmph......" Qi Dan stood up and paced to the window, turning his back to Chi Zebao. "I'm glad I'm not the only one who uses you...... In the future, you should pay more attention to my words, and use less people who don't care about the rivers and lakes, Mr. Chi. ”

Chi Zebao knew that he was ineffective in handling things, so he didn't dare to refute, so he could only lower his head and be honestly afraid.

"My people said that within the first two days, He Nan had already left the city...... Where do you think he's going?" Qi Shan asked.

Chi Zebao suddenly understood that the fifth prince was giving himself a chance to make up for his mistakes, and hurriedly replied: "As far as the minister knows, He Nan's accent and demeanor are all habits of northerners, and Li Mastiff also has some henchmen stationed at the northern border pass...... The greatest possibility of this congratulatory disaster is to go north. ”

"It's true that He Nan is a northerner, I've heard people mention this—" Qi Shan nodded, "But can you tell from that that he's going north in exile?"

Chi Zebao replied with an oath: "The minister remembered the teachings of the five princes, personally led the elite of the Tianbian Guard to encircle in the east, west, and north directions, and then sent a group of people south to inquire about He Nan's whereabouts - if he didn't kill He Nan, he would behead a certain head." ”

"Not bad. Then I will give you a chance to atone for your sins...... It's better to bring him back alive, though. ”

After Qi Dan finished speaking, he suddenly twisted a piece of white paper as if he remembered something, picked up the pen and wrote something on it, and then handed it to Chi Zebao. "He may be surrounded by a master sent by Li Mastiff Chun to protect him in secret, and if you can't win by force, you can tell He Nan what is on this piece of paper—he will obediently throw himself into the net after hearing it. ”

Chi Ze Leopard Belly slandered who could have such martial arts so that he couldn't win? But he didn't dare to refute this, his two eyes quickly swept over what was written on the paper, and looked at Qi Dan's eyes a little shocked, but he still smiled at Qi Shan flatteringly, and arched his hand: "Congratulations to His Royal Highness the Fifth Prince......

"But I still hope that you will be able to capture him alive on your own, because I want to tell him these words in person. Qi Shan interrupted Chi Zebao's words. He stood by the window, looking out at everything in the capital, with a smile on his face that controlled everything, "I'm looking forward to hearing his expression when I say these words." ”
