Chapter 113: People Are Coming
Lu Ziqian is a person who can control the most profitable business of eating, drinking, prostituting and gambling in Baoding Mansion, and can also do the business of buying and selling human beings at the feet of the Son of Heaven without being affected at all, and even military households dare to use it as a livestock to fight with wild beasts and bet on people, such a person, he should have a purpose in everything he does.
It's like he came to Baoding Mansion, presumably to deal with the fact that Xiao Zhengnan died in the gambling house before.
The second is to avoid the eyes and ears of the capital, and bring the white envoy here to recognize the mad dog.
He had such an important thing on him, but he still remembered to go to Xiangyu.
And not just once.
It's not like you're obsessed with Xiangyu.
After all, listening to Cui Minglou, Xiangyu is a real official lady, and if he has the slightest pity for her, it is impossible for him to grind people to this point, unless, unless..... Xiangyu has something on him that he needs.
Moreover, it is a very important thing.
At the very least, it should be something that is no lighter than the so-called secret letter and token of the white envoy.
She told Cui Minglou about her guess, and finally lowered her eyes and said: "Little Lord said that Miss Su has no previous affection for you now, but I don't think it may be." ”
If there was really no affection, those words would not be said.
will not help Cui Minglou cover up and urge him to go.
Cui Minglou actually knew this truth in his heart, but it was about the past, and listening to Su Lianqiao's tone, he seemed to be very resentful of him, and he was a little scared when he was close to his hometown.
After listening to Lu Mingwei's words, he pulled the corners of his mouth and made up his mind: "I'll go find her again." ”
Lu Mingwei shook her head: "Don't go again, going once can be said to be admired, if you go for the second time, I'm afraid that there will be Lu Ziqian's eyeliner in the Qinglou, and he will receive the news at that time, I'm afraid that it will be Miss Su who suffers, not to mention, you have to be careful to startle the snake." ”
Cui Minglou felt that he was indeed a little anxious, and after a pause, he sat down on the side again, and sighed with a heavy face: "But if that's the case, you have to make an appointment outside, I think Lu Ziqian's people are very keen, but I'm afraid that I can't hide it from him if I don't get a little trouble." ”
But in this situation, he really can't wait for a moment.
Lu Mingwei's face was pale, looking at the scene that had begun to become lively on the street, and suddenly smiled: "No, this may not be, he may not be able to take care of Miss Su for the time being." ”
Cui Minglou glanced at her suspiciously, saw her staring downstairs, couldn't help but follow her gaze, and suddenly suddenly became a little ----- the street became more and more lively, and a very beautiful carriage slowly drove from the street into the bottom of the archway.
Xiao Wenjun's people came.
Lu Mingwei had been leaning on the back of the chair a little lazily before, but at this time she had sat up straight, bent her knuckles and tapped lightly on the table, and said thoughtfully: "Leave this matter to me, let me arrange it." His Royal Highness paid attention to the white envoy's side, and didn't let him hand over the things to Lu Ziqian yet. Then wait for my news and go to see Miss Su at any time. ”
I don't know why, Cui Minglou was very convinced of Lu Mingwei's words, as if no matter how impossible things came out of her mouth, they became taken for granted.
He nodded slightly.
On the other side, Lu Mingwei had already asked someone to call Zou Sheng up.
Zou Sheng staggered up the stairs, carefully entered Lu Mingwei's room, and called her respectfully: "Girl." ”
Lu Mingwei snorted, took a sip of tea, whispered a few words to him, and saw Zou Sheng's puzzled face, so he coughed and asked, "How is it, Uncle Sheng?" Remember? ”
Zou Sheng scratched his head, repeated Lu Mingwei's previous words in his mind, and nodded affirmatively: "Don't worry, girl, I have remembered everything, and I will definitely not give you any bad things." ”
The noon sun made people a little dizzy, and after Xiao Wenjun settled down in the inn, he asked Chen Xing: "Which gambling house?" ”
Chen Xing has been uncomfortable since he returned to Baoding Mansion, he should have been too scared in the gambling house, he still dreams at night and often recalls the scene at that time, those man-eating beasts, Xiao Sangongzi's frightened expression and gaze, and the stool leg in Xiao Zhengnan's abdomen, all of which he can't forget.
He wiped the cold sweat on his head, although he knew that he had already reported to Xiao Wenjun, but he still didn't dare to be perfunctory, hurriedly pointed to an archway in the distance, and said in a low voice: "Master, that's it, ....... on that street."
Xiao Wenjun stood up, squinted through the window, looked at the huge archway, and didn't speak for a long time.
Xiao Zhengxuan followed behind him, and seeing that he didn't speak, he tentatively persuaded: "Dad, you mourn by the way, no matter what, we will definitely avenge Zhengnan this time." ”
Originally, Xiao Wenjun was only going to send a few capable stewards over, but then he couldn't rest assured anyway, so he simply came over by himself.
In the end, it is his own son, who died outside, where can he live in his heart?
This time, not only to help Xiao Zhengnan avenge, but also to bring Xiao Zhengnan's body back for burial.
Although from Chen Xing's words, he knew that even the corpse might not be able to stay, but ...... People have to have a little bit of thought to support it.
He came back to his senses from his thoughts, and said coldly with his hands behind his back: "Let's go to the next visit first, let's go to visit Sun Chuan, the prefect of Baoding." ”
Since he was coming, he was already ready.
Sun Chuan, the prefect of Baoding Mansion, is counted as a Jinshi in Yongchang for six years, and he is his senior brother.
In the officialdom, he pays attention to seniority, he can have some relationship with Sun Chuan, and he is an official in the same dynasty, so there is always a little bit of incense.
He had to see whose pier it belonged to.
Xiao Zhengxuan knew his current mood, he promised everything he said, and after he came out, he personally went to the door to visit the prefect of Baoding with a post.
Sun Chuan heard about the person, and was a little dazed, stretched out his hand to take the greeting post sent by the concierge to see, and suddenly his scalp was a little numb----- a few days ago I heard Cheng Ye say that the gambling house has encountered a big trouble, and now, this big trouble is coming to the door.
hasn't waited for Lu Ziqian to deal with it.
On the one hand, he accepted the post, replied to a post, and asked Xiao Wenjun to come over as long as he was free, and on the other hand, he was busy asking people to send someone to see Lu Ziqian, and told Lu Ziqian about it.
Lu Ziqian was still thinking that this time he might really be able to kill two birds with one stone, not only to get things from the white envoy, but also to pry open Su Lianqiao's mouth, so he heard about this and was suddenly a little surprised: "Is Xiao Wenjun coming to Baoding in person?" ”
Hearing the affirmative reply, Lu Ziqian was a little annoyed.
