Chapter 17: The Mansion of Wei (5)
"Mr. Zhang doesn't send it, don't send it!" Zhu Wenyu walked towards the door without looking back, and at the same time clenched his fist behind his ear and arched his hand, and fled in panic like when he encountered a wild dog when he was a child.
Out of Zhang's Mansion, Zhu Wenyu finally breathed a sigh of relief, thinking about the scene of Fang Cai, he almost laughed out loud, finally held back, and waved his hand: "Let's go, guys, Xiao Mansion on Huaishu Street outside Xuanwu Gate!"
When the group came to Xiao Mansion, Zhu Wenyu took the letter and said to the concierge of Xiao Mansion: "My surname is Zhu, and I was entrusted by someone to bring something from Sichuan to Mr. Xiao Ningbo Xiao of your mansion. ”
"Our lord is not at home, please wait for Mr. Zhu, and I will inform my son." Seeing that the letter really had the words "Mr. Xiao Ningbo Taiqi" written on it, he didn't dare to slack off and said busily.
"I'm in trouble." Zhu Wenyu said politely.
After a while, I heard a man's voice from inside the door: "May I ask which one came here to bring things for our house?" ”
When Zhu Wenyu heard this voice, he froze, and stood in place for a long time without waking up. This man's voice is too familiar, and it is clearly the same Xiao Wuya who spoke to Mr. Dai, the chief manager of Nayou, at the Wei State Mansion last night!
This Young Master Xiao of the Xiao Mansion is actually also a member of the Tianyi Alliance! Zhu Wenyu's mind was in chaos.
Young Master Xiao is a person in the Tianyi Alliance, so Lu Chenglin also belongs to the Tianyi Alliance? Zhu Wenyu doesn't think it's like it, Lu Chenglin's small Minjiang gang is just a gang of mud legs, a group of boatmen gathered, there are no martial arts experts in the gang at all, it is really a small local gang that can't be smaller, and the Tianyi League will not look down on it. What's more, there are two boxes and two letters, and the handwriting is different in different places, and the small box was sent by Lu Chenglin to his father-in-law's house, so as Tang Yun said, this box was ordered by someone else to Lu Chenglin to carry it in his own name. So who could order Lu Chenglin to do this? came up with such a way, even Lu Chenglin himself brought some property to his father-in-law's house by the way, so as to leave a way back for himself, the person who entrusted the box must be related to the Tianyi League, and in Leshan, the only person who is most likely to support Lu Chenglin is the prefect Liu Shicheng, if Liu Shicheng is a person from the Tianyi League, then what about Yu Shixiong, the "Ruyi Divine Sword"?
Yu Shixiong may actually be a member of the Tianyi Alliance? This made Zhu Wenyu extremely shocked, if Yu Shixiong is a member of the Tianyi Alliance, then the Qingcheng faction, as a famous and decent family in the Central Plains martial arts, may all belong to the Tianyi Alliance, this Tianyi Alliance has Du Feng Nangong Zhi These good hands, there are those dragon slaying killers who are not afraid of death and pain, as well as Yunnan's Five Poisons Sect and the "Ethereal Immortal" He Honghua, and now with the strength of the Qingcheng faction, its strength is already a few opponents, no wonder it can set off a huge undercurrent in the martial arts.
The more Zhu Wenyu thought about it, the more frightened he became, and countless thoughts flashed through his mind in an instant, and he was confused for a while.
But I saw the door of Xiao's Mansion open, and a man in his thirties walked out of it, dressed in a long robe, clasped his hands into fists and said: "My father went to the temple outside the city to enter the incense and did not return, in Xia Xiao Wuya, I don't know which friend came, if there is something to bring to my father, I don't know if I can collect it in the next generation?" ”
"Don't dare, under Zhu Wenyu, I specially brought a box for Mr. Xiao for Liu Shicheng, the prefect of Leshan, Sichuan." As he spoke, he stared at Xiao Wuya's face.
Sure enough, when Xiao Wuya heard the word "Zhu Wenyu", he seemed to be extremely surprised, his whole body was shocked, and a flash of divine light suddenly flashed in his eyes.
"This Xiao Wuya is also a master. The Tianyi League really hides the dragon and crouches the tiger, and has gathered a lot of talents. Zhu Wenyu said secretly in his heart.
saw that Xiao Wuya seemed to wake up immediately, pretending not to know Zhu Wenyu, a sincere smile appeared on his face, and said with a smile: "It turned out to be Zhu Gongzi." Zhu Gongzi traveled thousands of miles to bring the box from Sichuan, and he was grateful, so he invited the house to use tea. With that, he smiled and let go of his hand.
"You can't make a name for yourself in the middle of the capital, I want to see what the hell you can do with the Tianyi Alliance?" Zhu Wenyu said secretly in his heart, but said with a smile in his mouth: "Don't dare, don't dare, Lord Liu and Zai met in Leshan, when he returned to Beijing, Lord Liu just took something with him. Mr. Xiao was polite. As he spoke, he walked in with his head held high.
After the next person brought the tea, Zhu Wenyu tasted the tea with a full sip and sighed: "Good tea, good tea." This seems to be a new dragon well, right? It has a fresh fragrance. ”
That Xiao Wuya obviously didn't expect Zhu Wenyu to come, and his mind was a little messy.
Fang just read the letter, that Liu Shicheng said that Zhu Wenyu returned to Beijing, and the Minjiang gang sent a boat to send it, using Zhu Wenyu's identity as a messenger, asking the people of the Minjiang Gang to send the accumulated silver to the Tianyi League Treasury in the capital for accounting, but at this time, it was actually Zhu Wenyu himself who sent it to the door, I don't know if Zhu Wenyu has seen this letter, the fire paint of the letter has not moved, but it is not extremely difficult to see the letter in the envelope without moving the fire paint. If you read it, you will naturally understand that this is the industry of the Tianyi League, Zhu Wenyu can't be so calm, if he hasn't read the letter, and he hasn't opened the box to see the silver taels inside, then why didn't the people from the Minjiang Gang send it, but Zhu Wenyu himself? How much does Zhu Wenyu know about this? Or is it really just to deliver the box, and there is no doubt about the relationship between this Xiao Mansion and the Tianyi Alliance? The Xiao Mansion is where the silver treasury of the Tianyi League is located, and millions of taels of silver are hidden here for great use in future troubles. What made Xiao Wuya extremely uneasy was that this Zhu Wenyu suddenly came to the Xiao Mansion, he really didn't know the details, how much did he know about it? If you don't know anything, then you just don't have anything to do, and you can take the box and send him away, and there is nothing, but if Zhu Wenyu already knows some inside information, it will be difficult to do. It is basically impossible to leave Zhu Wenyu behind, I heard Mr. Er mention that Du Feng Feige passed the book, and the Tao was that Zhu Wenyu's two assassinations failed, this Zhu Wenyu's martial arts have entered the realm of first-class masters, and Liu Shicheng's letter is even more clearly written, even the alliance leader Yu Shixiong is almost tied with Zhu Wenyu, throughout the Tianyi League, except for Yu Shixiong, the head of the Qingcheng faction "Ruyi Divine Sword" and Mr. Er, I am afraid that no one can subdue this surnamed Zhu. If he wants to escape, unless he makes careful arrangements in advance, even if Mr. Two personally takes action, he may not be able to leave him behind. At this time, Mr. Er was still in the Wei Mansion, and Yu Shixiong was far away in Sichuan, so with himself and a few masters who guarded the silver treasury, even if he wanted to leave this Zhu Wenyu behind, no one in the Xiao Mansion was the opponent of this kid. But it is extremely dangerous to let it go in and out of this mansion, and if it is not done well, it will force the Tianyi Alliance to rush into trouble before it is fully prepared, and it will be a failure.
Xiao Wuya was full of hope that Zhu Wenyu would speak first, so that he could briefly probe Zhu Wenyu's tone, who knew that Zhu Wenyu opened his mouth, but he just said "good tea" with a smile??! which really made Xiao Wuya smile bitterly in his heart.
"Zhu Gongzi is really an expert, this is this year's new Longjing, and the family brought it from Jiangnan yesterday." You can't sit here without talking, Xiao Wuya had no choice but to reply in Zhu Wenyu's tone. "When you talk about tea, I also say tea, it's best if you don't get to the point, anyway, I don't take the initiative to ask you." Xiao Wuya said secretly in his heart.
"Is Mr. Xiao okay?" Zhu Wenyu said slowly.
"Thank you Lord Zhu for your concern, my father's body is quite tough." Xiao Wuya worked hard to deal with it carefully, for fear of saying the wrong thing.
Zhu Wenyu smiled secretly in his heart: "If you are treacherous and slippery, you have to drink my footwashing water." It turned out that all these words Zhu Wenyu said deliberately set a trap, when he heard the voice of Xiao Wuya when he entered the mansion, and knew that this Xiao Mansion was related to the Tianyi League, he had the intention to listen to the details of this Xiao Wuya, so he first directly said that it was the box entrusted by Liu Shicheng, without mentioning Lu Chenglin and the Minjiang Gang, so that Xiao Wuya thought that he had already known that the box was entrusted by Liu Shicheng, and this Xiao Wuya did not correct it at all, and the matter was naturally conclusive. The night before, although the head of the Wei State Mansion heard that someone was eavesdropping, he didn't know that it was Zhu Wenyu, so Xiao Wuya didn't know that Zhu Wenyu already knew his identity as a member of the Tianyi Alliance. At this time, as soon as it was confirmed by Zhu Wenyu, he knew that Liu Shicheng was also a member of the Tianyi League, and it was indeed he who ordered Lu Chenglin to send the property back to the capital by boat, as for the small box sent to Lu Chenglin's father-in-law's house, it was naturally the Minjiang gang leader who pretended to be a public servant and brought one more by himself. In addition, before Zhu Wenyu entered the door, he only said his name, did not report his official identity, only said that he was here to deliver the box, but at this time, Xiao Wuya blurted out the words "Lord Zhu", Zhu Wenyu naturally understood that Xiao Wuya had already known his identity, but he did not say it.
Zhu Wenyu was determined to set up more sets to see if he could come up with some more things.
"I don't know what Mr. Xiao is doing in the capital?"
"My father opened a money bank in Beijing, but he just managed it on a small scale and barely survived." Xiao Wuya said with a smile.
"Money? It's a big deal, and you have to pay a lot of money every day, right? Then presumably the treasury of your mansion must be heavily guarded, hehe. Zhu Wenyu said with a smile.
Xiao Wuya's face suddenly became extremely pale, he was stunned for a long time, smiled reluctantly, and said: "Lord Zhu has won the award, this is the net worth of the Xiao family, so naturally you have to take care of it." ”
"Mr. Xiao does not need to be modest, I believe that your mansion has many master killers to take care of, which is also natural. I'm just asking casually, even if it's Mr. Xiao himself, why isn't he a master? I'm afraid that even if it is a first- or second-level guard in the palace, it may not be Mr. Xiao's opponent. ”
Xiao Wuya's forehead was already soaked with fine beads of sweat, and he said after a while: "Master Zhu said that he laughed, Wuya is a scholar, and he has no power to restrain chickens, how can he be called a master?" ”
