Three days later, Qiandu City, Taipingfang, Nanhe Lane, Tianfu Restaurant.

Tianfu Restaurant can be called the first floor of Nanhe Lane!

Both the taste of the dishes and their thoughtful service are admired and widely praised in the industry.

Over time, it became a meeting place for scholars in their leisure time.

At this time, in the seats near the window, there were five people sitting.

Two of them are indeed dressed as scholars.

The other three are a bit nondescript.

It's like... Takeo pretends to be a reader.

Among these five people, the scholars are naturally dressed as Zhang Han and Li Changkong.

As for the remaining three, they are Zhu Ben, Jia Taisui and the crown prince Liu Yu who sneaked out of the palace.

Why did you sneak out of the palace to discuss things, it's very simple, silver!

This gathering of five people is about their investment, involving a lot of silver, hundreds of thousands of taels!

There are many people in the palace, what if a certain eunuch and palace maid hears it, reports it to Emperor Jing Xing, and reports it to them.

When it comes to silver, the four people except Li Changkong are all a little cautious.

This time, there is too much silver.

They were also raised by their own "means", and if they lost it, they were afraid that they would want to cry without tears.

In such a state of mind, the four of them became extremely nervous.

Liu Yu even looked around from time to time, and now he looked at everyone like a gangster, rushing up to snatch the silver ticket in his arms.

"How many of you have thought about it? Do you really want to take a stake? Among the few people, only Li Changkong was still there, drinking tea calmly.

"I can't think about it more clearly, I don't make a bastard if I have money." Zhu Ben smiled and took the lead in taking out his belongings.

With a click, ten silver tickets of 10,000 taels were neatly placed on the table, attracting everyone's attention.

Good guy, this 10,000 taels of silver tickets is almost the highest face value issued by Daqian, and it is ten as soon as it is shot, this guy has robbed the bank?

"What do you want me to do? This silver is definitely earned legally by not stealing or robbing. Seeing that everyone was looking at him, Zhu Ben couldn't help but feel a little anxious, and hurriedly opened his mouth to defend himself.

At this time, a group of readers at the next table were talking and exchanging what they had seen and heard in recent days.

"Ladies and gentlemen, have you heard? The Yangcheng Hou Mansion has been stolen! ”

"All the treasures in the mansion, large and small, have been stolen by thieves, and even the two purple dove trees at the door have not been spared."

"Huh? Purple dove tree is a rare tree, old, intertwined, luxuriant, and well-developed roots. ”

"It would take several adult men to fully embrace his torso."

"What is the origin of this thief, even such a big purple dove can be stolen from the Yangcheng Hou Mansion?"

"It is said that there is a thief saint in Yangzhou, claiming that there is nothing in the world that he can't steal, isn't this person doing it?"

"Thief? Isn't that in Yangzhou? Could it be that we have already arrived in Qiandu? When you go to bed that night, you have to close the doors and windows. ”

Listening to the discussion at the next table, everyone moved their eyes to Zhu Ben again.

"Tut-tut, thief saint, I didn't expect Brother Zhu to have such a name." Zhang Han teased.

"I didn't even let go of Zi Jue Tong, I was really mad!" Jia Taisui followed to help.

"No matter how powerful this thief is, I'm afraid it can't compare to a thief like Lao Zhu!" The crown prince Liu Yu patted Zhu Ben's shoulder and ridiculed him the most.

When Zhu Ben heard this, his face turned red, and he muttered something: "My own things, I don't ask if I take them for free, I can't steal them." ”

"How can the matter between this son and Lao Tzu be called stealing?"

But after all, in the sharp and contemptuous eyes of everyone, he lowered his head and muttered in defense: "The 100,000 taels of silver are not all from the family, there are 10,000 taels in it, and I earned it myself." ”

But even so, it was still ushered in only the contempt of everyone.

Zhu Ben suddenly wanted to eat the group of scholars at the next table, how could he appear in front of the small group in the future?

"Brother Zhang, what about you?" Seeing Zhu Ben's appearance, Li Changkong smiled, diverted the topic, and gave him a step down.

When Zhang Han heard this, he took out twelve silver tickets from his arms as usual, all of which were worth 10,000 taels.

Seeing this, Li Changkong bowed slightly.

As the only duke who was awarded the title of Duke for his military exploits, he was repeatedly favored by the emperor. If you really want to talk about the family background, it is still much richer than the Hou Mansion of Yangcheng.

"As for scholars, you have to be upright, Brother Zhu, I hope you can be an upright person in the future." Zhang Han's tone was not loud, but the words he said were stuck in Zhu Ben's heart like a knife, making him breathless and sad and angry!

The toes were clawing frantically, desperate to make a gap in the ground so that they could get in.

It's over, it's over, it's completely over, don't think about appearing in front of people in the future.

However, just when Zhu Ben was ashamed and wanted to die.

At the next table, the voice of the group of readers came again.

"If you want me to say, this Yangzhou thief is not only a Yangzhou thief, but I am afraid that it is not an exaggeration to call it a big thief saint!"

"Why do you say that?"

"You don't know that recently, not only the objects of the Marquis of Wuling's Mansion have appeared on this black market, but even the objects of the Dingguo Mansion!"

"And more, more expensive!"

"Shhh The Duke of Dingguo is the only duke who has been awarded the title of Duke for his military exploits, and his strength is unfathomable! ”

"This thief saint can sneak into the Dingguo Mansion to steal, and the theft is already superb!"

"What's more! According to the grapevine, the prince of Dingguo was given by the saint, and the golden clothes he often wore close to his body were stolen by this thief! ”

"In the end, he was bought at a high price of tens of thousands of taels of silver on the black market."

"Shhh Great! can steal the personal clothes of Dingguo Gong, this martial arts cultivation of stealing the saint, I am afraid that he has reached the realm of transformation! ”

"Maybe, even Dingguo Gong is not his opponent!"

"Awesome, awesome!"

Listening to the voices coming from the next table one after another, everyone's eyes gradually moved from Zhu Ben to Zhang Han.

"I didn't expect it, I didn't expect it, Lao Zhang, you usually look decent, and at a critical time, you are blacker than Lao Zhu!"

"That golden silk coat was given to the prince by the father, you dare to sell it!" Liu Yu's voice was full of ridicule.

Zhu Ben jumped up directly, pointed at Zhang Han's nose and scolded: "Upright? Do you call this upright? Ya's hands are darker than mine! ”

"Eh, people who read pay attention to having a clear conscience. Since this is my family's wealth, I have taken it, and I am worthy of it. ”

"Naturally, it is dignified!"

Zhang Han looked calm and said as a matter of course.

When everyone heard this, the corners of their mouths twitched, and after a long while, they all exhaled a breath: "Scholars are different, and their hearts are very good!" ”
