Chapter 9: Beauty Scheme
"Come, girl, childe, your knife to cut noodles, please use it slowly!"
Song Wan took a pair of chopsticks from the noodle table and handed them to Xiao Beichen, "So, you've arrived in Huizhou, you can say it, right?" β
"Xiao Wan'er is in a hurry, come, eat the noodles first, it won't taste good later."
Hearing this, she didn't move her chopsticks, just stared at him with her eyes and didn't speak. Seeing this, Xiao Beichen touched his nose and found that he was really getting more and more potential for a strict wife, so he could only clear his throat and said helplessly: "Okay, good, good, I say!" The rumor-monger is really worthless, but the person who gives the money, Xiao Wan'er should be very interested. β
"Who?"
"The strategist in the mansion of Lord Liang, the prefect of Huizhou, Zong Ren!"
Zongren? Is it him? Why.... Between the lightning and flint, Song Wan figured out the stakes, the court is currently divided into two parties for the position of the crown prince, one is the King of Qi Party headed by Ji Qinian, and the other is the King of Chu Party headed by the Six Princes, and the uncle of the King of Chu is Lord Liang! Ji Qinian buried the chess pieces by Lord Liang's side early, firstly, he could secretly collect enemy information, and secondly, on Yang Nianli's line, if the East Window incident happened, he could completely wipe himself off, after all, everyone only knew that Zong Ren was Lord Liang's person, so that he could not only break the wings of King Chu, but also assassinate Lord Yang, and watch the fire from the other side, which can be described as killing three birds with one stone!
"Xiao Wan'er, this sandpiper and clam are competing with each other, and the person who sits on the fisherman's profits may be replaced by someone else to enjoy!"
"What do you mean?"
"It is rumored that this Lord Liang has some special habits, maybe you can start with it."
"What fetishes?"
"Naturally", after a pause, looking at her thirsty eyes, Xiao Beichen deliberately sold a pass, and said with a smile: "Let's go, let's go meet this Lord Liang." β
In front of the Liang Mansion, Song Wan tugged at Xiao Beichen's sleeve, "You don't want to knock on the door and enter the mansion like this, right?" β
"Hehe, why not!" After the words fell, he stepped forward and knocked on the door, and after the next person came to open the door, he said: "The late life is the protΓ©gΓ© of Lord Zhu, the prefect of Jingzhou. β
The servant took the salute and looked at the two noblely dressed people carefully, and then said, "Please wait here, two of you!" β
After the people left, Song Wan took a step forward and looked at Xiao Beichen, "Where did you come from?" β
"It's a copy, fifty taels, a black market monopoly, speaking of which, it's still a silver tael given by Xiao Wan'er."
οΌοΌοΌ Sure enough, in this world, money can make ghosts grind!
"The two of you have been waiting for a long time, Lord Liang is invited!"
As she stepped into this Liang Mansion, Song Wan felt that the fragrance of flowers in the courtyard was pungent and familiar, and when she smelled it carefully, the smell was like!
"Two, it's here, please!"
Hearing this, he took the lead in entering the hall of his mansion, and as soon as he arrived in the inner room, Lord Liang was already sitting on the main seat, and when he saw Xiao Beichen, who was dressed in an ordinary white robe that could not hide his elegance, a touch of surprise flashed in his eyes, "The virtuous nephew is Lord Zhu's protΓ©gΓ©?" β
"Exactly! In Xia Su Liang, because the master has been infected with the wind and cold recently, he sent me to Huizhou to present a birthday gift to congratulate Lord Liang on his 50th birthday, right", Xiao Beichen took out a brocade box from his sleeve and said: "This is a luminous cup from the Western Regions, I heard that Lord Liang has a habit of drinking, so this birthday gift, Lord Liang accepts!" β
"Hehe, the virtuous nephew has a heart!" Taking the birthday gift from Xiao Beichen's hand, Liang Chu glanced at Song Wan, who was silent behind him, and asked, "This is?" β
"Lord Hui Liang, this is the maid below."
Maid? This Xiao Beichen's ability to talk nonsense is getting better and better day by day! "Slave Su Ying, I've seen Lord Liang."
"Hmm." After Liang Chu waved his hand to signal his exemption, he set his eyes on Xiao Beichen again, "The virtuous nephew has come thousands of miles away, the journey is hard, it just happens that his birthday is three days later, it is better to stay in the house, and then return after participating in the birthday, how about it?" β
"This, thank you Lord Liang for your kindness, Su Liang is here to be respectful and obedient."
Hearing this, Liang Chu nodded with satisfaction, turned his head and shouted outside the hall, "He Liang." β
"In!"
"Prepare the guest room, take Su Xian's nephew down for a while, remember, it's good to entertain."
"Yes, sir! Su Gongzi, please! β
"There is a housekeeper of Lao He," Xiao Beichen waved at Liang Chu and said, "Lord Liang, Su will go down first." β
"Go ahead!" It wasn't until Xiao Beichen's figure disappeared outside the courtyard that Liang Chu showed his meaningful smile.....
After arriving in the guest room and closing the door, Song Wan said unspeakably: "Xiao Beichen, are you trying to set up intelligence?" Although Lord Gangliang was already trying his best to hide it, his eyes looking at Xiao Beichen were too hot, and she had to feel that something was wrong.
"The ancients had a saying: the beauty plan is regarded as the best strategy in the art of war in the annals of history! In order to do what they like and achieve their goals, it is common to make sacrifices. β
Seeing that Song Wan frowned and didn't speak, Xiao Beichen smiled and said, "However, I didn't plan to make a promise in person, after all, Xiao Wan'er is still watching, I must have the consciousness of guarding myself like jade." β
Automatically ignoring the second half of his poor sentence, Song Wan looked at him, "So what is your plan?" β
"Discord Meter."
"Huh?"
"Xiao Wan'er still remember what I said, does this Lord Liang have some special habits?"
"Yes."
"I believe that I don't need to say more now, you should have guessed it, yes, Liang Chuming has three wives and four concubines on his face, but in fact, he has a habit of dragon yang, and he is dedicated to those scholars who are powerless and look stunning and clean."
"So what was your intention in pushing yourself in front of him?"
"If you don't enter the tiger's den, you can get the tiger! It is said that Liang Chu's male pets every time are not 100% voluntary, and some of them are snatched by him, just because he is powerful and powerful, those people dare not speak out, why do you think Zong Ren will be reused by Liang Chu, the root cause is that it accounts for more than half of the credit. β
"So now these male pets are imprisoned?"
"Liang Chu has a basement, which should be a place for enjoyment, but"
"But what?"
"I heard that recently, the second son of the Jia family, the richest man in Huizhou, disappeared."
"Do you suspect that Liang Chu did it?"
"Well, if this incident is used as a breakthrough, it will be able to expose the evidence of Liang Chu's crime of robbing the people's man, and it will make him suspicious of Zong Ren, after all, these things are only known to him as a strategist of the Liang Mansion, and then we can watch the fire from the other side and reap the benefits of the fisherman."
Song Wan raised her eyebrows and said, "That's why you borrowed Liang Chu's mouth to stay, in order to secretly search his basement and rescue the second son of Najia?" β
"Hmm, but even if I can get close to Liang Chu's body, there is still a sect in the middle, this person is thoughtful, if you want to avoid his ears and eyes and find the location of the basement, you need to think long-term."
"Zong Ren has a younger brother who eats, drinks, prostitutes, gambles, and is all kinds of fine, maybe start with him first."
"How would Xiao Wan'er know?"
Hearing this, Song Wan smiled and quipped: "Why, you are allowed to find someone to imitate the worship post on the black market, and I am not allowed to buy first-hand information on the black market?" β
Knock knock, knock knock....
Just as Xiao Beichen wanted to speak, there was a knock on the door, followed by a slightly deep voice, "Master Su, in the next sect, lunch has been prepared, and the master invites him to move to the hall to eat." β
Xiao Beichen and Song Wan glanced at each other, they didn't expect that Liang Chu would be summoned so quickly, it was really a good word! When the door opened, Zong Ren saw Xiao Beichen walking slowly from the house, and a touch of admiration flashed in his eyes, such a peerless person, no wonder the old man didn't even want to wait for a second!
"Mr. Lao Fuzong leads the way."
When he turned around, Xiao Beichen walked behind him slowly, and said softly to Song Wan: "Xiao Wan'er, do you know Zong Ren?" β
"Huh?"
"Just now, you stared at him for a long time, I saw it", he frowned, "I'm very displeased, very!" β
This Xiao Beichen, is there a second pair of eyes behind it! I wanted to hang him and didn't plan to answer, but seeing that she had been staring at her, in case the person in front of her found out, Song Wan had to say helplessly: "Don't make trouble, I don't know him, I'm just thinking about how to get close to his brother." β
"Really?"
"What is really fake! Xiao Beichen, you give me a little serious, Liang Chu suddenly summoned you over, I am afraid of fraud, you should be careful yourself. β
Hearing this, Xiao Beichen's mood improved, and knowing that she was caring about herself, she resumed her hippie smiley attitude, "Who cheats whom, it's not necessarily!" β
