Chapter 194: Picking Up People

The weather outside is fine, and there are many people passing by, Zhu Jiu and Xuanyuan Che are sitting in the tea house, dressed ordinarily, except for Zhu Jiu's appearance and eyebrows, no one pays special attention to them.

Xuanyuan Che dipped some clean water and drew a circle on the table to represent the Annam Mansion, and then drew a pattern to represent the imperial court.

"Since the time when I attacked Yan Kingdom, some people took advantage of the snow disaster in Annan Mansion to set up a rebel army that set things right, and wanted to kill Gu."

"There are also remnants of the old lord of Xuanyuan in this group of people, I personally investigated, and found out that they have a connection with this Black Soul Palace."

"Presumably, this time the queen candidates on the post-sealing ceremony are also because they know that I am investigating the Black Soul Palace, so they plan to take action directly, which makes me mess up."

The remnants of the old lord of Xuanyuan here refer to the staff members who were loyal to the families who controlled the Xuanyuan Dynasty, or the descendants of the descendants who escaped, Xuanyuan Che wiped out their family, and they naturally wanted to take revenge.

It's just that how they got in touch with the Black Soul Hall made Xuanyuan Che very curious.

Or is it actually the Black Soul Hall that has long wanted to deal with him, so it directly uses these people to attack him?

But if the current situation is the latter, then why did the Black Soul Hall wait until now to pull him off the throne?

I'm afraid there's something going on, and he doesn't know.

After Xuanyuan Che finished speaking, he smiled at Zhu Jiu: "To be honest, I still don't know why this group of people are targeting me."

It's not that he hasn't investigated, but he didn't expect that he had offended these people somewhere, and he couldn't find anything to make enemies with them, so he simply took advantage of this time to leave the palace and take the initiative to take a look at the black soul messenger who came to the capital to deal with him.

Maybe if the two sides say a few words, they will be able to turn big things into small things and small things.

Zhu Jiu heard what he meant, and couldn't help but look at him twice, with just the right amount of surprise in his eyes: "When did you become so talkative? Even thinking of making peace?"

When this guy used to follow her, whenever she encountered any trouble, or found him in any trouble, Xuanyuan Che pursued the purpose of cutting the grass and eradicating the roots.

This time against the Black Soul Palace, he rarely had the reason to talk about peace.

But while the two were talking, a delicate man's voice suddenly sounded over their heads: "Are you talking about me?"

A shadow fell just in time, just enough to cover the tea soup on their table.

Zhu Jiu paused, followed the voice and looked up, and saw that the flower monk didn't talk to the shopkeeper, but came to their table, for a while, she didn't speak, but looked at Xuanyuan Che opposite.

Xuanyuan Che played the role of a small guy, and with his dress, it really looked like that.

He was not in a hurry, and he was not flustered at all by exposing the lie, but stood up and looked at Monk Hua twice, nodded and said, "Your Excellency is from Annan Mansion, right?" My master saw that you were handsome and handsome, and you were a native of Annam Province, so I wanted to invite you to a meal, and it was in the inner city."

When Monk Hua heard this, isn't this a coincidence?

He was talking to the shopkeeper for a long time just now, just to rent a Guan Die from him and enter the inner city!

Ordinary people are not qualified to enter, only merchants and eunuchs are qualified to enter and exit the inner city at will.

Suddenly, Monk Hua didn't say a word, and said with a smile: "Just over there, when I was talking to the shopkeeper, I noticed that this son had been staring at me, and it turned out that the son was also from Annan Mansion!"

He deliberately spoke with a slight accent from Annan Province, as if he was a native of that place.

Zhu Jiu didn't understand the accent of Xuanyuan Guo'an Nanfu, so he didn't speak, and let Xuanyuan Che and Monk Hua talk, after Zhu Jiu settled the account, the three of them went to the inner city side by side, and they didn't enter the Yunlai Inn, but went to Tianxianglou to eat. Z.br>

This Tianxianglou is the most famous restaurant in the inner city, the dishes are also well-known, and the most important thing is that the Tianxiang wine here is famous, and ordinary people get drunk after only one sip.

Xuanyuan Che specially asked for a private room, and asked for a few jars of Tianxiang wine, before he talked to Monk Hua: "I don't know how long

What's the name of the old one? What are you doing in the capital this time? My son-in-law is the most kind-hearted, if you need any help, just open your mouth to my son-in-law!"

At the dinner table, Zhu Jiu sat aside and played with the wine glass, and for Xuanyuan Che's words, the monk Chonghua, who was only cooperative, nodded, revealing a friendly smile.

Monk Hua was suddenly moved, and the man who looked to be at most twenty-five years old, said with a simple emotion: "The poor monk has been robbed and ridiculed by many people along the way, and some people say that I am a fake monk, but I didn't expect to meet two such kind-hearted people when I first arrived in the capital today, this son, this little brother, I salute you!"

When the words fell, he really picked up the wine glass in his hand defenselessly, and then drank it all.

Xuanyuan Che smiled and poured him a drink, while greeting him, the two of them seemed to be friends who hadn't seen each other for many years.

Zhu Jiu also discovered for the first time that Xuanyuan Che acted in a play, which was more real than the play on the stage!

It wasn't until an hour later, on the table, that dozens of large and small wine jars were placed on the ground, and Monk Hua slowly put down the wine jug, and after burping, he looked at Zhu Jiu with a satisfied smile, his face was a little more cold.

"I didn't expect the emperor of Xuanyuan Kingdom to be able to drink so much."

What?

Zhu Jiu's heart jumped, and his body, which was originally silent and motionless, slowly stood up, looked at him silently, and slowly put his hand on the dagger behind him.

This guy has already seen their identity?

Then why did Xuanyuan Che accompany him to drink and deliberately listen to the news from his mouth, he could still be fearless and say anything?

It's just so weird.

And Xuanyuan Che sighed, his cheeks were already red, and there was still a hazy drunkenness in his eyes, he got up and patted him on the shoulder and said, "How do I know that the person who was sent by the Black Soul Hall to assassinate me in Xuanyuan Kingdom this time turned out to be you, Yun Song."

Yun Song, the real name of the flower monk.

This familiar tone made Zhu Jiu a little surprised, and he couldn't help but look at the two: "You know each other?"

Monk Hua nodded, but shook his head again, "More than ten years ago, I was the youngest son of the squire of the Xuanyuan National Military Department, and I used to be his companion."

"However, Xuanyuan later had turmoil, and the Yun family was also destroyed in the conspiracy, and then I wandered elsewhere, and was fortunately adopted by the messengers of the Black Soul Palace, and now I am working for the Black Soul Palace."

"The Dark Soul Temple sent you to kill me, what do they want?"

Xuanyuan Che stood up, his figure staggered a little, but he smiled frankly and looked at Monk Hua: "The night before yesterday, the Black Soul Hall sent me a message asking me to come to the outer city to pick up people, I'm afraid that the news was also sent to me by you, right?"

The two pretended not to know each other before, but it turned out that from the moment the two sides appeared, they were testing each other.

No wonder Xuanyuan Che was so patient and invited him to drink.

Zhu Jiu can understand that since these two people are old friends, it has nothing to do with her, she just needs to sit aside and watch the play.

Incidentally...... Look at the treasures that the Black Soul Hall wants to leave behind from the Central Plains Dynasty, what does it want to do?
