Chapter 887: After the Rain II

The girl left Yuping Tower with her maid Xiaocui and walked on Shunhe Street.

She was indeed casually strolling.

So I went to a certain silk shop and chose two new materials.

Then she went to a tailor's shop, and asked the tailor to make her two new dresses.

Then I went to a fat powder shop and picked out some new rouge gouache sent from Kyoto for myself and Xiaocui.

What she heard the most in her ears was what the shopkeeper Xiao Er and the guests in the shop said about the regent!

One by one, the regent was said vividly, just like a god who came down from heaven to save Ningguo!

Naturally, the red girl did not participate in such a topic, but she listened very carefully, and then left, smiling.

The sun is getting hotter.

The trees on both sides of Shunhe Street are quite sparse and cannot shade, and the Xiangfei fan in her hand cannot fan away the sweat on her face.

So, she took Xiaocui to a tea garden.

There is an old tree in the tea garden, the canopy is like a cover, and the shade is thick.

That's why the name of this tea garden is Old Tree Teahouse.

Usually on such summer days, tea drinkers who come to the teahouse to drink tea are mostly in the evening after dinner.

But now this old tree teahouse is almost full!

Under the guidance of Xiao Er, Luohong Xiaocui and the two walked slowly along the road, and all they saw were all kinds of people!

Most of them are small traders.

On the contrary, I didn't see the richest salt merchants in this Youzhou City.

Luo Hong has been in Youzhou City for a short time, and even less when he comes to the teahouse, thinking that maybe those rich salt merchants are going to more high-end teahouses.

Over here...... It is an ordinary tea garden, and the tea is cheap, which is a place for public pastime.

When she came to Yuping Tower, the prefect Tian spoke, so the old bustard of Yuping Tower had to raise her, and now she has not yet appeared in Yuping Tower, let alone picked up guests.

So no one knew her.

She doesn't have the smell of dust like the girl in the green building, she is dressed elegantly, her makeup is exquisite, and along the way, there are a lot of eyes on her face, thinking that this is a young lady from a big family.

Xiao Er also thinks so.

Such a young lady has silver!

Therefore, Xiao Er took the two of them to the west side of the old tree.

There is a lotus pond on the west side.

Compared to the crowd and noise on the east side, this west side is slightly quieter.

Even the tea tables are farther away.

But there are also people on the left and right.

Xiao Er took the towel off his shoulder, wiped the table, and said with a smile:

"Miss, how is this place?"

Luo Hong sat down, "Well, that's it." ”

"Miss, a pot of tea here is sixty ......"

Before Xiao Er's words fell, Luo Hong pouted to Xiao Cui: "Give this little brother two coins of silver, give us some refreshments, and the rest will be considered as a reward for you!" ”

When Xiao Er heard this, he was overjoyed.

He hurriedly bowed down, took the two coins with both hands, and said carelessly, "Miss, wait a minute...... The little ones are for you! ”

Xiao Er left happily.

Luo Hong leaned back in her chair and looked left and right.

The four people at the table on the right looked very young, and their faces were relatively white, looking very Sven, quite like the students of the academy.

At the table on the left were five middle-aged men dressed in brocade clothes who looked like merchants.

Their faces were quite solemn, and their voices were very quiet, as if they were discussing something important.

Behind......

She turned her head to look and saw that there were also five men sitting at the table behind her, but they were young men, dressed in ...... It's not a big deal.

Some wore linen clothes, and some wore brocade forging robes.

One of them had a face like a knife, and there were two very long knives beside him!

And the other...... The man's face was extremely clean!

His eyes were also crystal clear.

He sat upright, with a basket beside him, which seemed to contain herbs.

There was also one who couldn't be seen with his back to her, but he had a sword on his back!

The man on the side could only see his side face, about twenty years old, he was dressed in sackcloth, leaning back against a chair, looking lazy.

There is one more person......

is like a scholar, but there is a killing atmosphere.

He doesn't have a bookcase and he has a knife by his side!

It seems that these five people are from the rivers and lakes!

Luo Hong retracted her gaze, her little brows frowned slightly, and she thought to herself, didn't the people in the rivers and lakes of Youzhou City hear that they were arrested by the prefect of Natian?

So why do these people dare to sit here with swords and drink tea?

She was startled and looked back again.

When she retracted her gaze, her face was solemn -

Could it be that these people are the masters of the regent's side?

Could it be that the regent is among them?

Thinking like this, Luo Hong got up and changed her position, so that the table was directly opposite her.

She wasn't mistaken.

That table is really Li Chen'an Amu them.

Wang Zhenghaoxuan is not here, that young man who looks like a scholar and has a killing spirit, he is Su Muxin.

"Why did you choose such a place with so many eyes?"

Su Muxin looked around extremely vigilantly and asked in a low voice.

Li Chenan took a sip of tea, "I happened to walk here, so I came in to rest, and waited for someone by the way." ”

"Waiting for whom?"

"Zheng Wang, the commander of the Imperial City Division."

"Oh......"

Su Muxin pondered for a moment, and then asked, "When are you going to return to Beijing?" ”

"Roughly the day after tomorrow...... You're not going to go back with me? ”

"I mean, it's time for you and Miss Murong to do the same."

"You're not in a hurry, the girl is also anxious if she doesn't say it!"

Su Mu thought for a while, "Wait two more years!" ”

"Why?"

"I told her that after taking over Jiuyin City, we will go back to Kyoto to get married!"

Li Chenan was immediately impressed by Su Muxin, "Two years...... Good! ”

"I'll tell you in detail about this after I return to the inn, you do it according to my method, and it won't be difficult to subdue Jiuyin City in two years."

The two spoke in a low voice.

Luo Hong pricked up her ears and didn't understand.

Then, the people at the opposite table began to drink tea, rarely saying a word.

But a voice came from the other table:

"I said Lao Meng, I got the news that it was the Bafu Qianzhuang in our Youzhou City, and it was taken out by those salt merchants early this morning with a huge amount of silver tickets!"

When the man named Lao Meng heard this, he asked curiously:

"What? Are they trying to escape from Youzhou with a silver ticket? ”

"How to escape? Youzhou City is controlled by the Regent's people, and they can't escape! ”

"Then what are they doing with the silver tickets?"

The man leaned over and grinned: "I heard that I took it to the government office!" ”

Lao Meng was taken aback: "Governor Tian still dares to collect cash?" ”

"Of course he wouldn't dare!"

The man shook the folding fan in his hand and said mysteriously: "Governor Tian also sent someone to Bafu Qianzhuang to get a lot of silver tickets!" ”

"They're going to buy their lives with money!"

Another person was taken aback: "Regent...... And when he took their money, did he forgive them this great sin of heaven? ”

"As soon as the regent leaves, won't they intensify their exploitation?"

Lao Meng nodded: "This regent, I don't know what to think, hey...... The people of Youzhou City, our lives will be even more sad! ”

At that moment, the man who was shaking the fan raised his eyes to the old tree.

He lowered his voice:

"Look!"

Everyone turned their heads and looked over, it was Tian Xiurong, the prefect of Youzhou, who came!

He was heading towards the west with Master Wen and a few guards.

Luo Hong naturally heard and saw it.

Her heart was shocked......

Tian Xiurong seems to have seen her!

It's coming towards her!

"Miss......!"

Luo Hong's eyebrows frowned slightly, "Don't panic!" ”

"It's broad daylight...... The regent is still in Youzhou City. ”

"I don't think he will dare to do anything if his surname is Tian!"
