Chapter 14: Secret Visit
Ruyi Inn, when Song Wan walked out of her guest room early in the morning, she happened to bump into Xiao Beichen who was returning from going out, glanced at him, and wanted to pass by in ignorance. Seeing this, Xiao Beichen hurriedly stretched out his hand to stop her, and said cheekily: "Such a coincidence, where is Wanwan going early in the morning?" ”
"Xiao Gongzi, where do I go and what do I have to do with you!"
Listening to this unfamiliar tone, Xiao Beichen knew that she was still making trouble about yesterday's events, so she could only touch the bridge of her nose in embarrassment, and said softly: "Does Wanwan want to go out to investigate what she saw yesterday?" ”
Seeing that she didn't speak, Xiao Beichen had no choice but to continue to say softly: "Today, Zhu Yuhu made a post and invited Shangguan Shenxue to the mansion for a gathering, and then we can take this opportunity to secretly visit his mansion to see what kind of medicine he sells in his gourd." ”
"Zhu Yufei invited Shangguan Shenxue Mansion to get together? How could it be so sudden? Song Wan looked at Xiao Beichen, raised her eyebrows and asked suspiciously, "Did you do something?" ”
Hearing this, Xiao Beichen didn't hide it, and said generously: "Those who know me are not Wanwan!" Yes, I did secretly put some effort into throwing Shangguan Shenxue's 'beauty picture' into Zhu Yuyan's study, but even if there was no such thing, with his lustful level, it would be sooner or later, and now I just used a little trick to speed up the progress of this matter. ”
"Xiao Beichen, you are so good at scheming, and you are not afraid of breaking the hearts of other girls?"
"Hehe, what does it matter to me! I only need to take care of Wanwan alone, and that's enough! ”
"Humph! Flim tongue", the words fell, Song Wan turned around and returned to the guest room, knowing that he had made arrangements, so she waited for the letter in the room with peace of mind.
.........
At the time of the unitary, Shangguan Shenxue came to Zhu's mansion as promised, and saw that Zhu Yuyan was already waiting in the hall, she smiled knowingly, and slowly walked to the main seat to bless her body, "The slave family is late, so Master Zhu has been waiting for a long time." ”
"Not too late, not too late", looking at the delicate beauty in front of her, Zhu Yuyan rubbed her hands, and couldn't help but want to pull her into her arms. Seeing this, Shangguan Shenxue stepped back, picked up the wine jug from the table in the hall and poured a glass of wine, pushed it in front of Zhu Yuyan, and said coquettishly: "Master Zhu is really anxious, the night is long, are you still afraid that the slave family will not be able to leave?" ”
"Hahaha, it's mine, it's not mine, it scared Miss Cher, I'll punish myself."
Seeing that he drank the wine in the cup happily, Shangguan Shenxue chuckled and said: "No, Master Zhu is a big husband, one cup is not enough, according to the slave family, at least three cups!" ”
"Okay, listen to Miss Cher, I'll drink again, drink again......
On this side, spring is strong, on the other side, Xiao Beichen and Song Wan, who received Shangguan Shenxue's secret letter, took advantage of their unpreparedness and entered Zhu's mansion in the dark, and when the guards who had escaped the patrol came to the courtyard, Song Wan whispered to Xiao Beichen: "There are many wings in this mansion, I'm afraid there is not enough time to search them one by one, what can you do?" ”
"Wanwan has noticed that just after coming all the way, the guards in the West Wing are three times as many as here."
"What do you mean?"
"Earlier, Zhu Yufei just recruited a concubine from other places, and I heard that the woman is not from the Central Plains, maybe we can find a breakthrough from here."
As soon as the words fell, a shout suddenly came from the side of the west wing, "Come on, Aunt Tian has fallen into the water, come on..."
Hearing this, Song Wan and Xiao Beichen glanced at each other, and they invariably performed light skills and headed west....
Seeing that many guards were gathering in the place where they fell into the water, the two of them took a shortcut and secretly infiltrated the Jade Courtyard, and when they arrived in the inner room, Song Wan opened her mouth and asked, "You arranged the play just now?" ”
"Well, I bought off a maid here, and after the matter is completed, I will redeem her and leave."
"Xiao Beichen, you are quite focused on redeeming people, so fraternal, is it the reincarnation of a male Bodhisattva?"
"Ahem..."Xiao Beichen, who was choked by the words, cleared his throat in embarrassment, lest Song Wan misunderstand again, so he had to change the topic and said: "Wanwan, this Zhu Yuhu not only loves women, I heard that he also has a lot of research on jade, since this place is called the Jade Academy, I think it should not be a coincidence." ”
Hearing that he deliberately changed the topic, Song Wan had no intention of dwelling on it anymore, after all, the top priority was to find out what was suspicious here, "I noticed just now that there are two little lion statues placed at the door, will this be too abrupt for an aunt's room?" ”
"The lion statue can be used as a town house, but it can also be one of the gossip organs", Xiao Beichen looked up and looked carefully at the structure of this wing, and was suddenly attracted by a potted plant inside, he walked over and reached out and touched the chassis inlaid with strange patterns, and when he saw one of the laces in the shape of a jade character, he pressed it gently. Soon, the jade bed on the bed automatically split in half, and a dark ladder was cut out in the middle and extended down.
Seeing this, Xiao Beichen took the lead and walked inside, followed by Song Wan. After the two of them disappeared around the corner, the jade bed automatically merged again, as if nothing had happened...."Xiao Beichen"
"Huh?" Walking in front, he stopped when he heard the words and looked back at Song Wan, "What's wrong?" ”
"There seems to be writing on this wall."
When she lifted the lamp to illuminate it, she found that it was a series of incomprehensible words, a bit like, "Persian!" ”
The words fell, and both of them saw the shock in each other's eyes, you must know that the universality of this text is only popular in Jin and Persia, and now that it is seen here, it means that one of the enemy countries is likely to send someone to secretly infiltrate the Central Plains, and the reason can only be...
"There is a piece of drawing paper here", hearing Xiao Beichen's voice, Song Wan walked forward, only to see a black behemoth painted on the paper, a small ball on the ground, and the annotations and structures about this thing were written in Persian next to it, although I couldn't understand its meaning, but this thing was a nightmare for Song Wan.
"This is a cannon barrel and a cannonball, once the cannon is fired, it can destroy the creatures within a radius of hundreds of miles, and it is not an exaggeration to describe it as a living soul everywhere it goes", the reason why she knows the power of this thing so well comes from the fact that when the previous life was hostile to the Jin Kingdom, the other party had already used this thing on the battlefield, and they were hit hard at that time, and they suffered heavy casualties overnight, and the reinforcements were delayed, and the enemy was pressing forward step by step, if it wasn't for the fact that everyone was twisted into a rope and resisted desperately, I'm afraid....
Looking at Song Wan, who fell into her own painful thoughts and couldn't withdraw after speaking, Xiao Beichen gently held her hand and said softly: "Since this thing is here, it means that they haven't succeeded in making it yet, Wanwan, we still have time." ”
Although he couldn't quite understand the meaning of Xiao Beichen's words, he could hear that he was appeasing himself, so he also followed his words: "Well, but I remember that there are rumors that the Persian country is weird and mysterious, and the people there are good at illusion and poison, and the source of the record of this thing first appeared there, and now the trace of this thing has been found in Zhu Yuhu's mansion, which means that he is either a spy sent by the enemy country, or someone in the Central Plains colludes with foreign feudal lords and wants to do bad things!" ”
"Hmm... Wanwan, we seem to have overlooked one thing, the prefect here is Jiang Zhe. ”
"Jiang Zhe? Do you suspect that he and Zhu Yufei are in the same group? ”
"Although there is no evidence now, Zhu Yuyan is buying a house here, presumably he is secretly making and cracking this thing, if Jiang Zhe wants to investigate, he will not find out the strangeness, unless he has no intention of checking it at all!"
"Do you think he's an enemy or is he?"
"I don't know, but", Xiao Beichen smiled, revealing a confident look, and then said slowly: "I'll know when I try him." ”
"Try? As far as I know, Jiang Zhe is not as fond of women as Zhu Yufang, and he has almost no bad habits, and he is loved by the local people. ”
"Hmm, but I believe that people will have weaknesses, and even if Jiang Zhe hides it well, it is impossible to be invulnerable."
"Also, let's take a long-term view of this matter when we go back, it's not appropriate to stay here for a long time, let's go out first."
"Okay."
When she came out of Zhu's mansion, she saw the carriage of Yixianglou parked not far away, Song Wan raised her eyebrows, watched Shangguan Shenxue get down from the carriage, walked slowly to Xiao Beichen, and said coquettishly: "Young Master Xiao, didn't you promise to save the slave family?" The slave family has been waiting for you for a long time, just Master Zhu was almost there, why did you come! It's terrifying to the slaves. ”
This tone! The corners of Xiao Beichen's mouth couldn't help twitching, and he turned his head to look at Song Wan's face cautiously, and saw that there was no change in it, so he breathed a sigh of relief, "Miss Xue'er is cautious, besides, I have secretly sent someone to rescue you, you really don't need to worry about it." ”
"Xiao Gongzi's words are bad, how can others compare to your position in my heart!"
Get! To be cheeky, he can be regarded as meeting an opponent! Helplessly, he raised his hand and stroked his forehead, and said in a slightly tired tone: "It's not too early, Miss Xue'er should go back to Yixianglou first." ”
"In this case, the slave family listened to the words of the son and took the first step." When Shangguan Shenxue was halfway through, he suddenly turned around and said to Xiao Beichen shyly and timidly: "Childe, you promised me something, but don't forget, the slave family is waiting for you in Yixiang Building." With that, he blessed himself, turned into the carriage, and left the place.....
This Shangguan Shenxue, what is he trying to do with such ambiguous words? Xiao Beichen's eyelids twitched, and he looked at Song Wan next to him uneasily, and before he could speak, Song Wan stepped forward and took the lead in speaking: "Let's go." ”
With this unwavering tone, Xiao Beichen felt even more uneasy, compared to him, he would rather her be as awkward as she was a few days ago, than as calm as she is now, as if the two of them have returned to their original state. Thinking of this, he hurriedly stepped forward and grabbed Song Wan, and stammered: "Wanwan, I, her"
Seeing that he couldn't say a complete sentence for a long time, it was rare to see him like this, Song Wan couldn't help laughing.
Looking at her smiling face, Xiao Beichen was stunned, and in his impression it seemed that this was the second time she smiled at him, the first time was in that cave.... Recalling what happened that night, his eyes couldn't help but darken, looking at the delicate beauty in front of him, he slowly lowered his head in a ghostly manner.
Seeing this, Song Wan hurriedly stretched out her hand to block his lips, glanced at him with a red face, and said, "Go back", after saying that, she let go of her hand and ignored his reaction, and turned around to leave. Xiao Beichen, who stayed in place, covered his mouth and smirked....
