Chapter 53: Concubines
Tong Tao has a vigorous posture, not as burly as Tong Xiangming, forty-eight years old, with a beard, a pair of bright eyes shining, looking at the man opposite in the dark.
It's a pity that the room is too dark to see clearly.
He touched the 30,000 taels of silver tickets with his big hand, hesitated, if he couldn't kill it, the money would be wasted.
Rong Chun could feel his hesitation in this darkness, his eyes were full of contempt, and said: "I think you also know what happened in Shengjing today, Pei Huai'an cut off Tong Jingwu with a sword, and a person named Ten Evils, defeated the Tong family's thieves, and surrendered the 50,000 soldiers and horses who attacked the capital in one day. ”
His words, like pouring into his ears, were extremely clear, Tong Tao's black eyes were surging, and the green tendons on his forehead jumped fiercely, no one knew this matter better than him.
Rong Chun continued: "Such a powerful character, it's good that I can take this order from Yuhuamen, because there is a powerful Gu master in the door, so there is a low price of 30,000 taels, in the past, it started at 70,000 taels, anyway, if you put it here, whether you do this business or not, it's up to you." ”
"I'll do it." Tong Tao slapped the table and said loudly: "As long as you can kill Pei Huai'an, I will give you 200,000 taels." ”
Waiting for the Tong family to become the emperor, can they still lack this money?
He has to take a long-term view.
The deal was settled.
After Tong Tao left, Rong Chun put away the silver ticket and walked into the next room, which was also not lit, and there was an old man holding a skull staff, he had a long beard, wearing the unique costumes of Nanzhao, blue homespun clothes and pants, wrapped in a green headscarf, slightly bent over, and sat on a stool.
Rong Chun opened his mouth and asked him, "Did you hear clearly just now?" This task is handed over to you, giving you half a month to take Pei Huai'an's life. ”
"I hear you." The old man's voice carried an indescribable treacherous tone in the darkness.
His name is Ju Shang, one of the five elders of the Nanzhao Kingdom, and his imperial Gu skills are first-class.
Several princes of Nanzhao Kingdom disputed for the throne, and he was killed by the prince because he followed the wrong team and left Nanzhao Kingdom.
After Rong Chun gave Ju Shang an order, he didn't say anything more and walked out.
The moonlight was faint tonight, and when he went out the door, the light shone on his handsome face.
Dressed in black, with a handsome face and a long body, he is a beautiful man.
He looked up at the moonlight, his face was filled with some complicated emotions, and muttered, "Pei Huai'an, I hope you will kill a little more this time." ”
At this time, it was already the right time, and he was not the only one who did not rest.
Pei Huai'an had just finished bathing, his black hair was not tied up, quietly draped on his shoulders, sitting at the desk, he dealt with the affairs of the day, his face was a little tired, and he did not plan to rest.
There are many folk miscellaneous books on the table.
"The Story of the Resurrection of the Soul", "The Legend of Liaozhai", "The Chaos of the Soul"...
There is also a love book "The Reincarnation of the Fox Demon and the Years of the Nebord Scholar".
He picked up "The Resurrection of the Soul" and read it, and wrote to mark it in the key places.
When Shuo Feng came in to report the matter, he saw that the Overseer was looking at this, he was slightly stunned, and wondered: "Overseer, are you still suspicious that Yu Xianglian is the reborn Princess Zhaoyang?" ”
Pei Huai'an paused, closed the books, folded them together, and covered the title with a fold.
Don't let others see it.
He took out an official document on the table at random, didn't raise his head, and said lightly: "It has nothing to do with you." ”
Six candles were lit in the study, which illuminated the room.
Shuo Feng scratched his head, a little embarrassed and said: "Overseer, although you are usually very powerful, but there are no gods and ghosts in the world, although Yu Xianglian is a bit like Princess Zhaoyang, but it is absolutely impossible to be her." ”
"Oh." Pei Huai'an responded to him casually, and there was no other reaction.
Shuo Feng saw that the overseer couldn't listen to his words, and his face was a little excited: "Princess Zhaoyang's vision is extremely high, and only a handsome and beautiful son can enter her eyes, such as you." How could she look down on the Yellow Gate Squire Ji Lie? The Overseer must also have an impression of him, sharp-beaked monkey cheeks, extremely lustful, with a group of wives and concubines, and he also likes to go to the Qinglou. ”
Pei Huai'an put down the fold in his hand.
Looking at him with a puzzled look, he motioned for him to continue.
Shuo Feng continued: "You don't know yet, Yu Xianglian is going to marry Ji Lie as a concubine, and the date is set, February 5th, just a few days later." Do you think, if it were Princess Zhaoyang, would she marry that kind of person as a concubine? I'm afraid I'd rather die than give in. ”
Princess Zhaoyang Qiongzhi Yuye, Tianhuang noble, has her own arrogant bones, even if she is reborn, let her marry someone like Ji Lie as a concubine, how can she be willing.
Pei Huai'an knew Ji Lie and had an impression of this person, and Shuo Feng's words made him fall into deep thought.
Originally, there was a five-point certainty that Zhaoyang would be reborn, but now it is uncertain.
If it were Zhaoyang, he would not marry such a person as a concubine, and spend his life in the backyard to fight for wind and jealousy.
What's going on?
He looked at Shuo Feng with deep eyes and asked, "Is this true?" ”
Shuo Feng was a little nervous, but he immediately replied: "It's absolutely true, I haven't missed the news of the dark web of Tianhe Pavilion, I don't believe you can go and check, I knew about this matter a few days ago, but you didn't ask, and I don't want to bother you with such a trivial matter, after all, the Tong family was still in chaos at that time." ”
The dark web created by Pei Huai'an has not been missed so far, and Shuofeng has no reason to lie to him.
Zhaoyang, what are you trying to do when you marry Ji Lie?
Could it be that I really recognized the wrong person?
Pei Huai'an became suspicious of himself, before the matter was clarified, Yu Xianglian could not marry Ji Lie as a concubine, if she was really Zhaoyang after rebirth, and did not reconcile with him, marrying someone else as a concubine would undoubtedly slap him in the face.
He instructed: "Shuofeng, go and let Ji Lie come to the Governor's Mansion." ”
Shuo Feng looked at him with wide eyes, "Now? ”
Pei Huai'an gave him a cold look, and Shuo Feng immediately walked out to execute.
When he found Ji Lie, he was having fun in the room with his beautiful concubine, making one after another sound of ecstasy.
The housekeeper was very embarrassed to stand aside, and the people from the East Factory came to find the master at night, and he was in a hurry, so he hurriedly welcomed him in, who knew that the master was doing this.
The little guy went into the house and reported.
There was the sound of the Yellow Gate waiter scolding angrily, and after scolding a few words, the little servant whispered a few words, and there was a sound of banging inside.
Soon, Ji Lie pushed the door out to meet people, with a serious face, without the slightest trace of joy.
Shuo Feng said lightly: "Lord Ji, the overseer is invited." ”
After speaking, he turned around and walked in the direction of the entrance of the mansion.
Ji Lie followed, did not ask the reason, did not dare to have the slightest delay, for fear that he had made any mistakes, and he would be beheaded all over the house, along the way he thought about the bad things he had done in his life, and there was no answer to what offended Lord Pei Du.
