Chapter 99: For the first time, someone stood in front of Brother Nine
Report to the official?
Even if the few people in front of me didn't fully understand their details, Master Jiu's name was well known.
Based on this assumption, these noble people probably came from the imperial city.
If they know about this, doesn't it mean that the people above know about it.
It's just the difference between doing it privately and going to court.
Dingshengxuan is not afraid of going to court, but there is no need to go to court where they will definitely lose and expose the fakes in their auction house.
The big shopkeeper took a deep breath and looked around. She also understood who the leader of these people was.
Facing Fourth Brother, she smiled and said: "Dear guest, why don't you listen to the content of this news before making a decision?" The big shopkeeper opened the curtain, meaning that he wanted to chat privately.
Brother Si lowered his head and did not move: "I know what you are going to say. Write down the whereabouts of that person, and this matter will be settled with me."
The big shopkeeper looked embarrassed. She could control the other party's bargaining chip but even failed to meet the other party's requirements. She said: "He took the initiative to contact us. We don't know his whereabouts."
Brother Jiu originally thought they were talking about Shopkeeper Lu, but after hearing about it, he realized that there was obviously something he didn't know.
It is said that this big shopkeeper is so exquisite and exquisite. Why did he get kicked in the head by a donkey today? In front of the Ulanara clan, he asked for a private chat with the fourth son of the emperor.
The fourth elder brother heard this: "It seems that the shopkeeper's news is very lagging behind. So, I guess the ninth brother is not satisfied with the price of this deal."
This was a nod to him. Brother Jiu immediately waved his hand: "Yes, I am not satisfied, very dissatisfied."
The big shopkeeper: "The price is five thousand taels. But the bottle must be left in Dingshengxuan and I will destroy it myself."
Five thousand taels is the starting price for the auction. A strong man has cut off his wrist. The big shopkeeper knows that he is lucky to be able to solve the problem with twice the loss.
But one cannot step into the same wrong river, and Dingshengxuan must not be tricked by this bottle a third time.
The fourth elder brother stood up: "Ninth brother, take your bottle and money and let's go."
The big shopkeeper was worried: "What does this mean, distinguished guest?"
Fourth Brother: "When that person comes to look for you again, you can inform him. Afterwards, the bottle can be returned to Dingshengxuan."
The bottle was taken away as evidence, and the big shopkeeper gritted his teeth and paid.
The ninth elder brother obediently took the money, and the tenth elder brother held the box, followed by the fourth elder brother and his wife, and got into the carriage.
The two brothers, who had wanted to wear the same pants since childhood, were as quiet as chickens after getting on the carriage.
Brother Ninth is reflecting.
In the past, he always felt that among all the brothers, the fourth brother despised him the most.
Not to mention that they are all born from the same father, but from the same mother. In the eyes of the ninth elder brother, the fourth elder brother is kinder to him than the fifth elder brother and the eleventh elder brother.
At first, Brother Jiu was confused, but later he developed a rebellious mentality.
how? They are all descendants of dragons and phoenixes. Only the fourth son of the emperor is allowed to dislike him, so the ninth son of the emperor can also dislike him, right?
Furthermore, Fourth Brother’s cold face shows that he doesn’t look dead.
Over time, Brother Ninth got used to it and decided that their brothers were naturally at odds with each other.
Until a while ago, his new favorite little rabbit suddenly disappeared.
That night, he suddenly remembered a bloody black dog in the arms of his fourth brother when he was a child.
Brother Jiu, who remembered the source, became even more angry for some reason, leading to the scene at the birthday banquet.
Brother Ninth was persuaded to come here today, and he just wanted to apologize briefly for the birthday banquet.
As for the future and the past, he can't get over it.
Therefore, the fourth elder brother took the initiative to mention the rabbit, but he did not respond.
But something went wrong with the gift he chose cheaply.
In fact, things that can be sold door-to-door are somewhat unclean behind them.
Brother Jiu understood the truth and accepted it without hesitation.
After all, Brother Si is right. Today, he, Aixinjueluo Yinzhen, is not sincere.
Originally, if the fourth elder brother just walked away and added to the "relationship" between their brothers, it would be the fourth elder brother's fault.
But Si Age took them and came to seek justice.
And he also sought justice with confidence.
At that moment, Brother Ninth realized the reliability and happiness of being the younger brother of Fourth Brother.
Ninth Prince has many brothers.
His biological brother, the fifth elder brother, was "unable to protect himself" when he went to the study, and his temper was slow. Most of the time, when something went wrong, it was the ninth elder brother who reacted first.
The myna who is closest to him is of course also very good.
Most of the time, Brother Ninth is used to rushing to the front.
The eighth brother and the tenth brother will also stand behind him. They are very united.
…
But this was the first time that someone stood in front of Brother Nine.
This feeling... is pretty good.
The tenth elder brother's eyes flickered between the two brothers, equally thoughtful.
Lu Pheasant took a look at each other, and then closed his eyes to rest like the fourth elder brother.
Without any instructions from the master, the coachman went to Brother Si's mansion on his own initiative.
When they arrived at the place, Si Age and his wife got off the car one after another.
Brother Jiu followed him down in a daze.
The tenth prince was sitting in the carriage, wondering whether he should call someone.
Brother Si obviously heard what was going on behind him, but he just held Si Fujin's hand and strode forward.
But Lu Pheasant turned around and said, "Brother Jiu wants to sit in the house?"
Before the ninth elder brother could respond, the tenth elder brother said first: "I heard that the fourth sister-in-law has good tea here, and my brother would like to ask for a drink."
Lu Pheasant looked at Brother Jiu.
Brother Jiu also nodded: "Yes, yes."
Brother Si had no objection, so Lu Fei arranged for them to enter the main hall.
After giving the instructions, he got up and went to the tea room: "Brother Ten, since you want to drink something, why don't you come and take a look and choose one?"
The tenth elder brother stood up quickly: "Here we come, fourth sister-in-law."
The scene was cleared again, and Brother Ninth was frustrated yet grateful. This time he took the initiative to pick up the teacup: "Fourth brother, today... Anyway, thank you very much."
Brother Si glanced at him and said nothing.
Brother Ninth: "This bottle doesn't count, I'll take it away. Another day, I will choose a good one and send it to you, and then I will apologize to my fourth brother properly."
Fourth elder brother: "Ninth brother always speaks nicely."
Brother Ninth: "..."
"Fourth brother, my younger brother didn't do it on purpose. Who would have thought that Dingshengxuan would dare to cheat on me. I also saw this bottle that day, and it looked like what you wanted, so I made the move last."
It's rare to know his preferences.
Three thousand taels is indeed not a small amount. Putting aside the flaws of the gift itself, Brother Jiu has indeed made a big deal.
But this temperament... still doesn't work.
Fourth Brother: "You always take chances. Whether it's the stolen goods that come to your door or the things that are close to you."
Brother Ninth had never been able to listen to the tone of this kind of teaching, but today he was a little more patient, suppressed his temper, and asked: "Fourth brother, what does this mean?"
Fourth Brother: "So, you still don't know how your rabbit disappeared?"
