After listening to this, Xu Jian commented: "You are quite clever. ”

Su Chang grinned, and tried to squeeze out a smile: "Don't dare to say that you are smart." ”

Xu Jian asked again: "Do you know what Su Yi is doing now?" ”

Su Chang's smile suddenly became much more embarrassed.

His eyes were blindfolded, the cloth was so tight that he couldn't even see a hazy shadow.

The view is blocked, and the heart is naturally more uneasy.

He licked his lips and didn't keep his mouth shut.

For him, babbling a lot of things that he doesn't have can be more down-to-earth.

"I really didn't lie to you before, although I had some friendship with Su Yi in the past, it was not a relationship that worked hard for him, and he wouldn't tell me everything."

"I used to think that Su Yi had dealings with this side, and they were talking about some businessmen."

"Gu Yue is not as good as you, Da Shun is rich in resources, and what Gu Yue can get is some spices and horses from the Western Regions, and the two sides will negotiate a good price and benefit each other."

"Su Yi said that they are political achievements in the public office, can straighten their waists in the officialdom, and make some money in private, and we merchants can drink hot soup after us."

"Not to mention anything else, since the first time the Soviet Union sent an envoy to Dashun, the two sides have sincerely communicated, the officers and soldiers have protected the merchants, with the prosperity of Dashun in recent years, the importance of merchants has risen to a new level, especially outside the customs, rarely robbed by horse thieves, we are safe and worry-free, so I was very active in the envoy group before."

"Don't you have more snacks to make money?"

"But now I know, you are surrounding the Jin Palace."

"The prince of Jin is different from Su Yi, he doesn't simply ask for merit and money, he, he seems to have killed the younger brother in Yongji Palace, right? Everyone outside said he was going to rebel! ”

"King Jin was looking for Su Yi before the accident, Su Yi was just dragged into the water, in case Su Yi and King Jin were not money-making partners, or partners in rebellion, then wouldn't I be finished?"

"That's why I want to run!"

The more Su Chang spoke, the more excited he became.

These are all from the bottom of his heart.

He has been a trader all his life, and the difference between a big and small business is just that, he doesn't want to be in the office, and he doesn't want to spend money with his life!

"I don't know who you are, but I didn't say a lie," Su Chang said eagerly, "Look, I'm really going to sacrifice my life to Su Yi, the last time I was kidnapped, I will tell Su Yi as soon as I turn around."

Su Yi knew that there was something wrong with me, and when he asked again, he knew that I also confessed to a 'Tong Gonggong', if he didn't kill me, the King of Jin who cooperated with him would definitely kill me.

I'm living well because I just want to make money, and I don't want to be a scout stake. ”

Su Chang nodded heavily, and analyzed his mentality word by word: "I really just want to make money, I don't want to be involved in rebellion!" ”

Seeing that he was so anxious to identify his "innocence", Xu Jian couldn't help laughing.

"Su Chang," Xu Jian said, "This is the capital of Dashun, at the foot of the Son of Heaven."

You want to beg for a living here, and you still want to take over your family, but you are looking for Su Yi as a backer, don't you think clearly enough?

Far water can't save the near fire, and the strong dragon can't suppress the ground snake.

What's more, he is not a strong dragon. ”

"Yes, yes, yes!" Su Chang is worthy of being a businessman, with a lively mind and a sharp mouth, "I am originally from Guyue, and I learned Chinese to do business with Dashun."

When he first entered the industry, there were few doors, so he went to Su Yi, and slowly started with the little benefits that leaked from his fingers.

If I continue to go out of the customs and enter the customs to get the goods, I will follow Su Yi to calculate the right way, but I am now focused on this, and I will definitely have to worship the mountain again.

I'm the one who knows best.

You are the head snake, I will follow you, I will report to you as soon as there is any news from Su Yi! ”

Xu Jian doesn't like the identity of "head snake" very much.

Of course, he won't have anything to do with Su Chang for this.

It is impossible for him to really cover Su Chang, this businessman is used to seeing the wind and the rudder, and if he can betray Su Yi, he will naturally be able to betray him in the future.

But this did not prevent Xu Jian from digging up some more news from Su Chang's mouth.

"After the envoy group returned to Guyue last time, what else did Su Yi do?" Xu Jian asked.

Su Chang sneered: "I've been doing business here, and Gu Yue's information there is not well-informed. ”

When the words fell, the surroundings fell silent.

Su Chang couldn't hear the other party's reply, only heard the slow and low tapping sound of "do-doe".

This is the other person tapping the armrest with his knuckles.

It was obviously not heavy, but it was as deafening as a drum, and it seemed to be all knocked on his heart and lungs.

Sincerity.

Sincerity!

Su Chang silently recited these two words.

It's all said and done, if he still hides something, turns around and provokes the other party, and people really have murderous intentions, then isn't he a big loss?

"No, but!" Su Chang took a deep breath, "I've heard that Su Yi has been to Dashun a few times in the past few years, and he has been sneaky, and the people who have been arranged for him here are businessmen like me who have risen up through his support.

I heard from the people in the legation corps to mention it, and of course I never arranged those for Su Yi.

Maybe I've just opened a shop in the capital, right?

Maybe after a few years, I will gain a firm foothold, and Su Yi will contact me when he comes. ”

Su Chang said cautiously.

The first is to send some information, and the other is to show some of its own value.

The king of Jin was captured, and the nobles of Dashun would also want to discuss it for a while.

But if it is forced, it is not conducive to the harmony between Dashun and Gu Yue, and there will be a lot less trouble in private "learning".

And he, Su Chang, will be able to grasp Su Yi's whereabouts one day, which is a good "selling point" in his own opinion.

Unexpectedly, the other party didn't care about his "next few years" at all, but asked about "the previous few years".

"Sneaking in?" Xu Jian asked, "Between Guyue and Dashun, even if you don't get to the capital, it will take a lot of time to go back and forth." Su Yi, as your Guyue official, can he take leave for so long? ”

"yes?" Su Chang was stunned when he heard this, he really hadn't thought about this before, "Before I came to Dashun, I didn't hear that Su Yi had a long time off, but the people from the envoy group chatted casually at that time, what did he lie to me about?"

This lord, I don't know if Su Yi is sick or on leave, in short, I definitely didn't tell a lie! ”

"Then according to your words," Xu Jian paused and skewered a piece for him, "King Jin gave Su Yi an urgent secret letter, will the Su Council quietly come to Dashun from Guyue to save people?" ”

"How do I know this......" Su Chang pouted, muttered and found that something was wrong, and was busy making up for it, "The two places are so far away, when Su Yi arrives here, King Jin is only afraid that it will be cold, or do you Dashun really have to wait until after autumn to ask for slashing, spring and summer will not use the knife?"

Besides, Su Yi is a Wenchen, he has no soldiers in his hands, and he can't enter Dashun, what can he do to save the King of Jin?

You can't let us buy and sell people rush forward, can you?

However, if you are not afraid of 10,000, you are afraid of what happens, I sent this secret letter from King Jin, and Su Yi should contact me if he wants to take action.

Don't worry, my lord, I will report to you as soon as I receive the news here, so that you can prepare early. ”

"Oh?" Xu Jian asked again, "That's a good word, contact me when the time comes, do you know where to contact me?" ”

Su Chang didn't know.

Su Chang didn't even know the identity of the other party.

Twice, he came and went unconscious, and when he woke up, he was blindfolded, and he had no way of knowing.

"Then ......," Su Chang asked tentatively.

"If there's any news, hang two strings of red lanterns at the door of your shop, and light them during the day, and someone will come to the door." Xu Jiandao.

As soon as he heard this, Su Chang was sure that his life was worry-free, and he was busy.

Xu Jian got up and left.

Su Chang listened to the movement in the room, and subconsciously shrunk his neck.

Soon, another knife slashed over, Su Chang lost consciousness, and then, Samchen arranged for the person to get into the carriage and sent him back to West Street.

Xu Jian walked steadily towards the main courtyard.

Halfway through, a grandmother came to say that the county lord had returned home, so he stepped up his pace.

The two took a photo outside the main courtyard gate.

Under the sunset, Lin Yunyan looked at Xu Jian, bent her eyes and smiled.

She was a little tired for the day.

It's not that it's hard or hard, but the strings in my heart are always tight and can't be relaxed.

Even if she saw Li Du being taken away by the Imperial Forest with her own eyes, she was only relieved, but she was not fully relieved.

Li Rong is gone.

Tong Gonggong and the others are gone.

Li Du acted strangely, and it seemed that he had other plans.

Lin Yunyan thought that maybe only by waiting for the moment when Li Du died, she could feel at ease.

No.

It may be that she will not be able to relax until the day when the saint is completely disappointed in Li Shao, and when she and Xu Jian will not repeat the mistakes of the past.

Xu Jian walked towards Lin Yunyan, naturally took her hand, and the two walked to the courtyard together.

Lin Yunyan followed Xu Jian's steps, her fingers clasped with him slightly.

The palms are overlapped, and the body warmth that is passed over is warm.

While walking, Lin Yunyan talked about the situation on her side: "Princess Jin is temporarily placed in the palace, and the queen mother has arranged for someone to watch her.

Her mother-in-law and sister-in-law came to Cining Palace to plead, saying that the king of Jin had committed a crime, and the princess did not know about it, and the family did not know about it.

didn't dare to ask for innocence, so he could only hope to spare the princess's life.

The Queen Mother didn't say whether it was accurate or not. ”

Xu Jian asked, "How is Niangniang's physical condition?" ”

Lin Yunyan is also very concerned about this matter.

The previous time I knew the cause of the king's death, the queen mother was sick, and this time she caught the real culprit of poisoning and arson, and the mother must be in a mood of ups and downs.

"The complexion is not very good," Lin Yunyan said, "The eldest princess of Baoying talked for a while with her, and the eldest princess of Derong was there, but she rarely spoke."

Before I came back, I asked the eldest princess, she usually talks a lot, why is she so silent today?

She said, after all, they are all brothers and sisters, and she also has emotions in her heart when she comes to this point, besides, she not only talked a lot in the past, but also spoke quickly, she is afraid that she will not be able to suppress the fire in the belly of King Jin today, and she will not be able to suppress the scolding in Cining Palace. ”

Xu Jian raised his eyebrows.

With his understanding of the little county lord, Lin Yunyan would not mention such a trivial matter to him for no reason.

Sure enough, although Lin Yunyan hesitated, she still continued: "King Jin is very strange, when we surrounded him, why did he talk to the eldest princess several times?

Yes, the other princes were not on the spot, only the eldest princess was.

But instead of asking the eldest princess if she fights for the man, he should drag the Xianwang and others who are not present into the water. ”

For several princes, Xu Jian has more or less dealt with them, but when she is replaced by an eldest princess, she really knows very little.

"That year, when my father came to us, he mentioned it," Xu Jian said, "The eldest princess of Derong is probably gone." ”

is as expensive as the eldest princess of Derong, whether she dies or encounters an accident, there will be a saying for life and death.

But it's just a "very likely".

There is no groundlessness, there are such rumors, and I think it is like this.

And if there is no explanation, the cause of death cannot be clearly stated, and even death is not convenient to publicize.

What the hell was she involved in?

"Li Shao acted ruthlessly, he even dared to be sleepy in the saint, and he wouldn't hide it when he killed the eldest princess," Xu Jian analyzed, "If the eldest princess doesn't have a conflict with Li Shao, it is most likely that she will fall out with Li Du." ”

As for the reason for the turnaround, what exactly is the reason?

For a while, it was difficult to come up with a definite answer.

After talking about the situation in Cining Palace, Xu Jian and Lin Yunyan talked about his progress that day.

When Lin Yunyan heard what Su Chang said, she frowned and asked, "How is Gu Yue's strength?" ”

Xu Jian immediately understood her thoughts.

He is far away from the border pass, and he has also resigned from the military department, and he is not in that position, and he does not know the recent situation.

But after all, he had been in charge of the gist and knew how to operate in several places, he thought about it and said: "I also saw the report of the spies in Guyue when I was in the military department, Guyue is located outside the fortress, and the training is only enough for self-protection, and it is enough to swallow other small countries in the Western Regions, let alone enter Yumen in the east." ”

"Gu Yue's alliance with us is also to contain Xi Liang," Lin Yunyan said, "But on the other hand, is it possible for them to suddenly turn against the water and attack us together with Xi Liang?" ”

Xu Jian didn't answer immediately, he thought about it for a while before he said: "From the perspective of using soldiers, there may not be such a possibility, but from a practical point of view, is Li Du worthy of Su Yi to persuade King Guyue to attack us?" ”

Lin Yunyan understood.

Su Yi made a deal with Li Du, which was profitable, and Li Du privately promised Su Yi some benefits.

But Li Du fell by himself, and all the benefits disappeared.

For the sake of a Li Du who has gone and is dying, Su Yi will not take a big risk.

"Unless he is sure that Li Du can retreat and make a comeback," Xu Jian said, "Of course, even if Su Yi judges so, he still has to convince King Guyue and the other officials." ”

Tearing up the covenant and joining forces with the old enemy Xiliang for many years, this lobbyist is not easy to be.

However, just in case, tomorrow he will have to mention a few words to the saint.

"I'm also curious that Su Yi has secretly left Gu Yue......" Lin Yunyan muttered.

Until the dead of night, Lin Yunyan fell asleep, and such and such questions were still swirling in her mind.

Xu was thinking about it day by day, and she dreamed vaguely.

In the dream, the familiar and unfamiliar faces of the two worlds flashed one after another, making her dizzy.

So she got up in a hurry, desperately trying to see clearly and match her face with her name and surname, but the more anxious she became, the more chaotic she became, so anxious that she suddenly opened her eyes.

It was dark and gloomy.

There was no light in the curtain, and she gasped for air, her chest heaving.

A hazy thought came to mind.

The monthly ticket building and the fan title building in March have been opened, and interested book friends can take a look at the book friend circle.

Thanks to the book friend Lonely Cello for the reward.
