Three watches.

Jinling City is the most prestigious, the food is famous all over the world, Baifang Building, but it is still as brilliant as day.

It's just a strange thing.

Tonight's Baifang Building, there is only one guest!

On the open-air balcony on the second floor, an old man in ragged clothes and unkempt hair was enjoying the dazzling array of delicacies on the table alone.

And on the side of the huge sandalwood dining table, there stood respectfully a group of hotel guys, chefs and bartenders.

At this moment, the only guest in the Baifang Building tonight, almost the entire upper body was drooping on the dining table, feasting, not caring about the eyes of others.

"Lao Zhuo, can the dishes of this Baifanglou suit your appetite?"

Just then, a lazy voice came.

"Thank you for your hospitality! Tsk, I also bought the entire Baifang Building for the old decay, and broke the bank! What a cost! ”

The old man called "Lao Zhuo" smiled, pulled a fragrant roast goose leg and bit it.

The whole process, without even raising his head.

"I've seen Lord Shiko!"

The surrounding small two restaurants and stewards saluted respectfully.

Under the awe-struck gaze of the audience.

A handsome young man in brocade clothes with a beautiful body and a beautiful woman with delicate makeup and a beautiful face of flowers and moon walked side by side with an intimate expression.

"Let's get out of the way, Mr. Zhuo doesn't like to be disturbed when he eats."

Jiang Li waved his hand and retreated.

"Yes."

The crowd withdrew.

"This is ......."

The old man surnamed Na Zhuo, who was immersed in food, suddenly glanced at Han Yunshang on the side, and his expression suddenly changed slightly.

"Han Yunshang has seen the old-timers!"

Without waiting for Jiang to leave his mouth, Han Yunsheng on the side stepped forward and arched his hand.

Her posture is down-to-earth and generous, like a chivalrous woman in the rivers and lakes, without the slightest hint of a weak Oiran.

"Uh-oh."

The old man replied noncommittally, continued to drink wine and eat meat, and said no more.

"Okay, Yunsheng, it seems that our old Mr. Zhuo is really not used to seeing outsiders, so let's do it, you can wait outside for the time being."

Jiang Li gently said to the beauty on the side.

"Yes, Shizi." Han Yunshang nodded obediently.

.......

At this point, there are only two people left on the open-air balcony of Nuoda.

Jiang Li sat down in front of the old man slowly, poured a pot of wine by himself, and opened the conversation:

"Senior Zhuo, thank you, if it weren't for your Bai Xiaosheng's help, this son might not have guessed that Nangong Shengnan would be hiding in a brothel in Jinling City."

"However, what this Shizi is a little curious about is that this person has disappeared from the rivers and lakes since he escaped from prison, how did you learn about his traces?"

"Harm."

The old man finally raised his head, revealing an old face full of ravines, and then grinned, revealing a mouthful of yellow teeth: "The prince might as well guess, who gave him Yi the appearance at the beginning?" ”

Jiang Li groaned slightly, and couldn't help but raise his eyebrows and said, "So it'....... The charlatan who disguised himself for him leaked his whereabouts? But...... These unfathomable charlatans care most about reputation, aren't they afraid of smashing the signboard by doing so? ”

"Money makes the devil grind."

The old man took out a bamboo skewer casually, picked his teeth, and squinted at the other party: "Otherwise, why did the prince of the original world ask me about the whereabouts of this person, and ask you five hundred taels of silver?" A penny for a real thing! In fact, in the hands of the old man, there is not much left! ”

"Tsk, I can't imagine that the famous Bai Xiaosheng has to rely on money to buy news, it's really ironic."

Jiang Li sneered.

"Hiss ......."

The old man narrowed his eyes and said with a sly expression: "Dare to ask Lord Shizi, when did the old man say that I am Bai Xiaosheng of the rivers and lakes?" When did you say that the so-called Bai Xiaosheng, he is a person? ”

"Oh?"

Hearing this, Jiang Li became interested, "As you said, Bai Xiaosheng, the number one strange person in the rivers and lakes, and the gold list of many recognized rankings in the martial arts of the Eight Kingdoms, is actually an organization of many people?" ”

"Hehe, don't say."

The old man laughed dryly, lifted his cuffs casually, and wiped his mouth, "Anyway, I'm not, of course, don't ask who I am, it's not important!" ”

"This is important."

Jiang Li's expression suddenly sank, "After all these years of hard work for you to provide information, I was able to kill many gangsters in the rivers and lakes, and achieved the name of Shura, this son still remembers, five years ago, I executed the young master of the Iron Fist Gate who was full of evil, when Qi Xiaofeng, you suddenly appeared behind me, and said the word "Shura", it is also a loss that this son did not succeed in the beginning, and acted steadily, if you put it now, it ....... now."

"Hehe, what if you put it now?" The old man smiled heartlessly and asked.

"You don't need to ask that."

Jiang Li said coldly: "In this world, except for myself, no second person is allowed to know Shura's true identity. ”

"Tsk, I'm afraid that's not the case, right?"

The old man seemed to be smiling, and in the direction of the door, he pouted, "That girl just now, didn't she call you a helper?" She should know who you are. ”

Jiang Li's expression froze for a moment, and then said: "She has followed me for three years, and this son has secretly observed her for three years, anyone in this world can betray this son, but she will never." ”

"Are you sure?"

"I'm sure."

"Okay, then congratulations to the son, I hope ........"

Speaking of this, the sly smile on the old man's face suddenly disappeared for a second, "I hope you can treat this girl better, now in this deceitful world, it is difficult to have such a loyal girl." ”

"I don't need to say that."

Jiang left the door and said, "Last time I asked you about the Vermilion Bird Hairpin, do you remember?" ”

The old man was full of food and drink, and the whole person lay on his back on the chair, and said leisurely: "Of course, that question is very valuable, and it is enough to ask for two thousand taels of silver for the prince of the world." ”

"Well, this son will give you another chance to get rich now." Jiang Lidao.

"Say, this time, which wicked person does the prince want to inquire about?" The old man asked.

Jiang Li said word by word: "I want to know if the widow of the former emperor, Shu Guifei, has had a holiday with the current empress." ”

"This ......."

The smile on the old man's face stiffened again, and he hurriedly said, "Na! Shizi, we can talk about it at the beginning, we can ask about the affairs of the rivers and lakes of the four seas, but only the affairs of the court and the palace can never be contaminated! ”

"Less nonsense, three thousand taels!"

Jiang Li took out a stack of silver tickets from his arms and smashed them on the table, "This is the silver ticket of Futai Yinzhuang founded by my father himself, not only in Da Zhou, but also in the major money banks in the capital of Zhongzhou and other countries, you can withdraw cash with the ticket!" ”

"To be or not to be!"

"Yes!"

The old man was also unequivocal, rolled up his sleeves, and grabbed the silver ticket, but was grabbed by the other party's arm: "Old rules, talk about things first." ”

"That's it!"

The old man gritted his teeth, "According to what the old man knows so far, the current empress, when she was the eldest princess, did have a great holiday with Concubine Shu!" Even ......."

"Most of the reasons for the shocking coup d'état launched by the empress are attributed to this woman! As for the later rape and murder of Concubine Shu Guifei by a mysterious gangster....... The people have their own sayings, and the prince must have heard of them. ”

"Well, that's all the old man has to say! Surely that is the answer to your question? ”

As soon as he finished speaking, the calloused palm reached for the silver ticket on the table again.

This time.

Perhaps it was the young prince who was contemplating something and did not stop him.

Putting the silver ticket into his pocket, the old man licked his lips, his mood suddenly improved, and he couldn't help but persuade: "It's all some old things, the deceased of Concubine Shu is gone, the old man advises you not to pursue this matter anymore, the evil in this world cannot be eliminated, even you, the Shura Lord who was born out of nowhere." ”

"Well, the old man is not in a bad mood today, give the prince a spare, and give you a shocking secret for free, I believe that the prince will be touched when he knows."

"Tell me about it." Jiang Li looked sideways at the other party.

The old man took a deep breath and straightened his body closer, and then said slowly: "Lord Shizi, do you know that in the bloody palace rebellion six years ago, it was not your wife Lin Siyan who killed Emperor Wentai, but——"

Speaking of this, he pointed to the heavens and said no more.

"I see."

Jiang also set off a wave in the centrifugation.

After the palace change, rumors were released in the palace that it was the goddess who caught Lin Siyan and killed the first emperor by mistake, for which over the years, she has suffered countless verbal and written criticisms, and even her father Lin Taiyuan broke with her, if there was no beautiful mother-in-law to reconcile it, the two may have already broken off the father-daughter relationship.

Not only that, but in private, she also got the black title of "monarch killer.....

Now it seems that this woman has been carrying the black pot for the empress?

At this time, Jiang Li suddenly thought of something again!

"That's right! Lin Siyan told me in the morning that she would propose a condition to the empress that she could not refuse in exchange for my freedom, could it be ....... She wants to threaten the empress with this?"

Thinking like this, his heart stirred again.

"Lord Shizi, can the old man ask you a question?"

Seeing that Jiang was silent, the old man suddenly said with interest.

"If you say, if you don't answer, it depends on the mood of this son."

Jiang Lidao.

"Five years ago, when the old man first met you, you were not yet successful, and it was right to be more stable."

"But now you, you have continuously defeated countless gold list famous masters, and the set of "Northern Darkness Swallowing Heaven Gong", which can absorb people's internal force and have miraculous skills, is also a great achievement, why....... Will you be willing to stay in Da Zhou and send people under the fence? ”

The old man asked, looking very puzzled.

"Not enough, not strong enough."

Jiang Li shook his head.

"How strong do you want to be?"

The old man smiled bitterly: "With your strength, if you are a public identity, you should be among the top three in the martial arts "Tianjiao List", which is on par with Lin Siyan!" ”

"Wait!"

Speaking of this, the old man suddenly thought of something, "You won't be jealous of your current goddess Lady Catcher, right?" In your opinion, if you fight now, who will be stronger and who will be weaker? ”

"I haven't been beaten, so it's hard to say."

Jiang Li said truthfully: "I chose to continue to cultivate obscurity, not because of Lin Siyan, but because of ....... The time has not yet come to return home. ”

"So, what time is it?"

The old man's unwilling questioning seemed to have aroused his curiosity.

"This question, a hundred taels of silver."

Jiang Li held up a finger.

"You, son....... Are you poor for money!? The old man gritted his teeth.

"This son is naturally not bad for money, but I am happy to blackmail you." Jiang Li said very sincerely.

"That's it!"

The old man hesitated for two seconds, gritted his teeth, took out a bag of broken silver from his arms, and smashed it on the table, "Dot! ”

"No need."

Jiang Li was also unequivocal, put the broken silver in his pocket, and spit out a sentence lightly: "A year later, the Eight Nations Alliance, Shenzhou will definitely have another storm, and at that time, under the fence, Yue Shizi, who has almost been forgotten by the world, will make a choice that shocks the world——"

"Hard-working people, the sky is not worth it, lying on the salary and tasting the gall, three thousand Yuejia, you can swallow the world!"

When he said this, he was extremely calm, but the domineering spirit of the natural king overflowed with a bang!

The old man was stunned and shocked for a long time, but he did not say a word.

"Okay, today's meeting, that's the end, remember, this world doesn't want to see you again this year."

Jiang Li drank all the wine in the cup and was about to leave.

"Wait!"

The old man suddenly called out to him, and said quite unwillingly: "We have been working together for so long, isn't the prince curious about the identity of the old man at all?" ”

"You've already said it, you're not Bai Xiaosheng." Jiang Lidao.

"Yes, I'm not!"

"That's enough."

"Enough?" The old man's eyebrows jumped.

"Because I ruled out Bai Xiaosheng's identity, I can determine who you are." Jiang Li said lightly.

"You....... Do you know who I am? ”

Until this moment, the old man, who was unfathomable and arrogant throughout the whole process, couldn't sit still at all, and stood up tremblingly, "The old man doesn't believe it!" ”

"I can't believe you, guess why I brought Miss Han here tonight." Jiang Lidao.

"You ......."

The old man's heart was shocked, "Tell me!" Why? ”

"Lao Zhuo, Lao Zhuo, you can't hide the caring eyes of your loved ones."

Jiang Li's eyes were cold: "Or, should I call you ....... Han-senpai! ”

"You! Forty years ago, with a copy of "Qingping Swordsmanship", he left his wife and children, and ran away from home, the young master of the Han family, Han Shanhu! ”

Hearing this, the old man was like a thunderbolt, and he took a few steps backwards again and again.

But the matter has come to this, and he no longer hides it, but asks astringently: "You...... When did you start to get suspicious? ”

"At that time, I had just rescued the orphan girl of the Han family, and you appeared the next day, if I guessed correctly, you should have followed us all night to confirm that I had no ill will towards Yunshang before appearing."

Jiang Li said lightly: "I originally suspected that you were the omniscient Bai Xiaosheng, but now that I ruled out this answer, I locked your identity." ”

"That is, all these years, you have always had doubts? But why don't you say it? ”

The old man is already in chaos at the moment.

"Why do I say that? You are the only living person in this world who knows the identity of my Shura, and your only relative in this world is in my hands, so that this life can be at ease. ”

Jiang Li said unhurriedly, and decided to add: "But don't worry, I regard Yunshang as my sister and won't hurt her, but what will happen in the future depends on you." ”

"As we all know, I, Jiang, am the number one gentleman in Jinling City, and I am romantic, so the old-timers ......."

Speaking of this, the corners of his mouth rose, and a curvature √, "You don't want your granddaughter to be hurt in any way, do you?" ”

"Jiang Li! You kid is not pure! It turns out that he has been calculating the old man! The old man really mistook you! ”

The old man gritted his teeth.

"Harm, old-timer, you also said that this river and lake are full of deception, and everything is just a matter of preparation."

"Also, every time you blackmail this son's greedy appearance, it really makes me very unhappy."

Jiang Li finished speaking lightly and walked away.

"Stinky boy! The old man is not finished with you! ”

Han Shanhu howled loudly, with a dejected face, where is there still the mastery of Fang Cai.

He thought that he was in control of this son, not only to get money, but also to use him to protect his granddaughter, but he didn't expect it......

You are the one who is controlled!

"But it's okay! This time I earned three thousand taels from your boy! The old man still wins! ”

Repeatedly looking at the silver ticket in his hand, Han Shanhu's wrinkled old face once again showed a satisfied smile.

Just when he was snickering in his heart—

The shopkeeper of Baiyanlou, who had been waiting outside for a long time, walked in respectfully.

"Senior, Lord Shizi, is our old customer, you have come all the way to the banquet to entertain him, and the friendship is not deep, therefore, tonight's banquet cost, we will give you a seven-fold discount as appropriate, a total of -"

The shopkeeper meticulously calculated, and then said with a smile: "Eight hundred taels." ”

"This ......."

Han Shanhu was like a thunderbolt, and took a few steps backwards.

........

........

Send Han Yunshang back on the way home.

Jiang Li did not take the chariot in the house, but hummed a little song leisurely and comfortably all the way back to the Lin Mansion.

"It doesn't matter if you have money or not! White prostitution makes people happy! ”

He happily walked into the compound of the Lin Mansion, but he met a tall and beautiful figure.

It's not the cold princess of his own family, who is it?

Look up.

At this time, Lin Siyan had already changed into a unicorn court dress and a goose hat, with a solemn look on her face.

"Shizi, you are back, rest early, early tomorrow morning, let's go to pick up my mother together."

Lin Siyan took a deep look at him, and then walked sideways to the parked car in the distance.

"Strange, it's almost dawn, where are you going?"

After many years of marriage, Jiang Li took care of each other's affairs for the first time in his life, and asked, "Are you going to face the saint?" ”

"Yes." Lin Siyan admitted.

"You can't go."

Jiang Li said: "This son doesn't need you to intercede with the empress for me." ”

"It's none of His Royal Highness's business, the official has his own arrangements."

Lin Siyan said lightly.

", I knew you'd say that."

Jiang Xuan complained, and after a second of silence, he said: "Okay, if you insist on going, I will go to the palace with you!" ”

"It's been six years, and your majesty must still be a little curious about me, my ex-fiancé......."

Lin Siyan: ?
