Chapter 11: Chestnuts

readx; Although Yuecheng is a remote city, it is probably rare to find a place with more people and more conversations than a teahouse. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info

The fifth small building stopped at the corner, watched the two people go around the teahouse, and finally could only stand on tiptoe and slowly squeeze into the teahouse sideways.

This teahouse is not big or small, just like this city, it is now crowded with all kinds of people.

Although there are also people sitting and drinking tea slowly, there are more people who stand and chat while drinking tea, and the noise from the teahouse can be heard from a distance, which is even more lively than weddings and funerals.

So the fifth small building was not in a hurry to enter, firstly, because she couldn't squeeze in if she wanted to, and secondly, because as long as she squatted next to the window in the lobby of the teahouse, she could hear the noisy sound inside.

I can't hear it clearly, but it's better than nothing.

In the past three years, although she has eliminated the "big shots" who are mainly responsible for the death of her relatives, she still knows as much about Emperor Yue Ming as she did three years ago.

She only knew that Emperor Yue Ming was the current emperor of Yue Kingdom, and as for other things, she almost didn't know at all, and she didn't know anything at all.

"What is the layout of the palace?"

The fifth small building does not know.

The pitch-black city wall outside the palace had already made her lose the idea of flying in, and the king of Yue seemed to know that someone wanted to kill him, and every outsider who entered the palace had to be stripped naked and searched before letting him in.

Naturally, she wouldn't let others strip her naked, but she couldn't just want to go in and kill someone without bringing the Aji sword.

"How many people are there in the Praetorian Guard, and how many masters are in it?"

The fifth small building didn't know either.

Just a few days ago, when she was walking by the city wall, she saw someone leaping between the city towers, as if she was walking in the air!

The shock left on her by that person's light skills has made her unable to sleep well for the past few days.

She still knew very well what the level of light skill in the fifth small building was, although she also tried to track the figure of this person flying out of the palace, but after only turning a corner, she couldn't see that person.

She doesn't even seem to be able to catch up with the ashes.

"How does Emperor Yue Ming arrange his work and rest time? Where does he usually stay, how long does he stay in each place, and who does he usually see?"

The fifth small building still doesn't know.

Naturally, the layout of the palace is impossible to circulate.

There are a total of 199 houses in the palace, large and small, and there are nearly 30 concubines of King Yue.

This man is like a turtle with a shrunken head, forever hiding in its shell, and does not even want to stretch out its hands and feet.

She didn't know where to start.

She didn't dare to act rashly at all.

She had been squatting under the window for a long time, but she still hadn't received any useful information.

Of course, this can't be blamed on her, most of the people with identity and news are sitting in the center of the lobby, and the people on the windowsill are some wild roads to join in the fun, chatting about the odds of "Feng Wudao vs. Yan Ming", trying to study what clues from the odds numbers issued by the bookmaker.

Seeing that she couldn't finish listening to their analysis for another day and night, she simply changed the window and squatted, who expected that the people here were actually chatting about Qinglou, chatting vividly, and learning was also good.

Although the fifth Xiaolou was expressionless, as if she hadn't heard anything, her little face was already a little red, but fortunately, this place was in a blind corner where there was no light, and she didn't have to worry that anyone would see her embarrassed appearance.

But just as she was about to get up and leave, a thief and a little cheap voice suddenly came from behind her.

"Hey...... Who are you, why did you occupy my place, do you understand if you come first and then come?"

The man didn't even make a sound of footsteps.

As soon as the word "hey" came out, the fifth Xiaolou's little face suddenly turned from reddish to pale, and he immediately turned around with his sword in his hand, staring coldly at this uninvited guest.

This person took a bag of sugar and fried chestnuts, as if he was also a little surprised, and after waiting for a while, he saw that the fifth small building still didn't want to speak, so he said: "What are you looking at me for, don't say anything about taking my place, do you still want to beat me?"

"This is your place, and who are you?"

"I'm a little tired, go buy some sugar and fried chestnuts to eat, who knows that this position will be robbed by you at once. The man raised the sugar-fried chestnuts in his hand, "Just call me Tang Chestnuts." ”

At this time, his face emerged from the shadows, revealing his pockmarked horse face, so the fifth Xiaolou just glanced at him, and then turned his gaze away, deliberately not looking at him.

At least she won't stare at a pockmarked face and look left and right, and even if she was caught eavesdropping, even if she was caught by her peers, she would inevitably feel a little embarrassed.

"You too..." Fifth Xiaolou coughed dryly, thought about it carefully, or changed a more pleasant word, "Come to inquire about the news?"

Tang Lizi said: "No. ”

The fifth Xiaolou said: "Huh? Then you are?"

Tang Lizi puffed up his chest and said, "I'm here to peep." ”

Seeing that he didn't care about the word "stealing" at all, he said it very smoothly, as if he was saying something that was taken for granted, and the word "peeping" could obviously be replaced by the word "look", but he wanted to say it so obscenely.

The fifth Xiaolou was surprised: "Steal... Voyeurism?"

I didn't expect this person to be bolder, and he didn't even have the mentality of being a thief.

Tang Lizi ignored her, walked to the window, pulled up the fifth small building squatting on the ground, and said, "You are squatting here and you can't hear clearly, it is better to stand up and take a closer look." ”

What kind of voyeurism is this?

This is obviously a bright look!

The people at the table sitting by the window suddenly noticed that there were two more people outside the window, and they were about to ask what they were doing, when they suddenly saw the pockmarked man smiling at them, holding a bag of fried chestnuts with sugar, and asked them.

"Do you eat chestnuts?"

"Huh?"

"The chestnuts that have just come out of the pot are delicious. ”

"Thank you Brother Tai for your kindness... No, you don't!"

"Then forget it, I think it's too crowded inside, it's cool and cool to blow the wind here, don't you mind?"

"Since Brother Tai said so... Don't mind!"

They looked at each other and started chatting again.

There are already a lot of people in the teahouse, and if they mind being overheard, they won't come here for tea a long time ago, so wouldn't it be better to find a place where no one is around?

The fifth small building is still a little embarrassed, although I couldn't hear it clearly just now, but there is no psychological pressure, but now I can not only hear, but also see clearly.

She was a little absent-minded, her head hanging in the shadow of her hood, her eyes drifting.

Some people in the teahouse glanced curiously at this side, and Tang Lizi still looked so leisurely.

The fifth small building wanted to leave.

Tang Lizi ate a few chestnuts, and suddenly pointed to the middle person, and said, "Do you know, who is that person?"

"I don't know. ”

It was a domineering-looking young man, dressed in a luxurious way, but very delicate and well-fitted, with a long sword with a black sharkskin sheath hanging from his waist, which looked extraordinary.

She didn't know many people in the first place, so she just glanced at it from a distance and answered very simply.

Tang Lizi said: "Strange and strange!"

The fifth Xiaolou said: "What's strange?

Tang Lizi smiled mysteriously and said in a low voice: "He is Zhang Qingsong, Luo Feichi's personal disciple, if you talk about the subtlety and treachery of swordsmanship, I am afraid that few people in the rivers and lakes can compare with him." ”

The fifth Xiaolou couldn't help but be slightly moved, and said: "I heard that his swordsmanship has been passed on by Luo Feichi, and there is nothing more than that!"

Tang Lizi said: "You've heard of him." ”

Fifth Xiaolou said: "I've only heard of his name, but I haven't seen his real person." ”

Tang Lizi smiled again, pointed to another person, and said, "What about him, do you know this person?"

The fifth Xiaolou shook his head.

This person is at the same table with Zhang Qingsong, with gorgeous clothes, and the waist pendant is a piece of pure white marble, which is a priceless thing at first glance.

But he looks very polite, not like other rich people, he has no shelf on him, and he is also commensurate with the second brother of the shop.

Tang Lizi said: "This is the most reputable money village in the Central Plains, the young owner of Kong Ji Money Village, named Kong Fang. ”

He made it clear.

The fifth Xiaolou still shook his head and said, "I still don't know ...... But why are you telling me this?"

Tang Lizi smiled again, and said in a low voice: "Introduce the identities of both parties first, and wait to see the main drama later." ”

The fifth Xiaolou hesitated and said, "Drama, I see that the two of them are talking and laughing, can they still fight?"

Tang Lizi said leisurely: "Of course the fight will start, but it is not the two of them who fight." ”

The fifth small building said: "With whom?"

Tang Lizi didn't speak, laughing even more, but he didn't stop laughing for long.

Not only him, but at this time, the entire teahouse suddenly shut up at the same time, their eyes focused on the door of the teahouse, and a figure was slowly walking into the teahouse step by step.

The fifth small building is also looking over there.

Look at this atmosphere, you don't need Tang Lizi to say that you know that the main lord has come.
