Xie Mengxia was drinking in the lobby. Seeing Yao Yao running into the lobby, he stood up strangely and looked behind Yao Yao, but there was no one.
He was even more surprised, and he smiled and asked: "Ah Yao, is there a ghost chasing you from behind?"
Yao Yao rolled his eyes, sat down and took a sip of tea. He drank so fast that he choked and coughed.
Xie Mengxia looked at Yao Yao's face and saw that her cheeks were slightly red and she was panting. She patted her thighs and shouted in a low voice: "It's broken!" and ran upstairs.
Before he could reach the door of Han Changmu's room, he heard the noise. He clicked his tongue, shook his head, then turned around and ran downstairs.
He sat down opposite Yao Yao, took a sip of tea, and repeatedly clicked his tongue: "This, it's not so good to be in the clear sky."
Yao Yao glanced at Xie Mengxia: "What if it's not?"
Xie Mengxia laughed heartily: "Ah Yao, you have to understand that this kind of thing was bought with real money. It's a pity to see it."
Yao Yao took a sip of tea and almost choked it.
this is okay too? It does make sense when you think about it, it makes sense! ! !
Seeing the choked look on Yao Yao's face, Xie Mengxia came over and continued to laugh: "A Yao, you don't know, Jiuchao is the most stingy, but this time he spent ten thousand taels of silver to buy someone, tell me. I can only let him watch, isn’t it inhumane?”
"How many??"
"Ten thousand taels!!"
Yao Yao stared, completely speechless.
This is too cruel and inhumane. The seventh-grade official she created from the dead people has been calculating the monthly salary of a few taels of silver all day long, but as soon as this son of the aristocratic family makes a move, he can buy a fireworks woman for 10,000 taels of silver.
People are more likely to die than others.
She nodded with difficulty and spoke every word with great difficulty: "I can only...just look at it, it's really...a waste of money."
Xie Mengxia high-fived and laughed loudly. He really felt like a confidant. He leaned forward slightly and told Yao Yao heart to heart: "Ah Yao, although it is said that money can make the grinding ghosts go away, there is no saying that the world should be free." There is true love. If you don’t have money, there is a way to do it. Even if you don’t have money, you can have love.”
Yao Yao raised his eyebrows and said with a smile: "Your Highness, talking about money hurts feelings, talking about feelings hurts money, leave it to you, what do you choose?"
Xie Mengxia chuckled and said, "Of course I am, I'm not short of money, so why worry about losing money."
Yao Yao slapped the food table hard and said with a smile: "Yes, but I am short, so we can only talk about money."
Xie Mengxia understood what Yao Yao meant and sighed: "A Yao, you don't want to think about it anymore?"
Yao Yao looked calm: "Although it is endless fun to fight against the sky and the earth and against others, it depends on who you are fighting with. The guy upstairs has too high a rank, too low a bottom line, and his character is too rubbish," she said Hehe laughed twice and shook his head: "If you fight with her, you will lose face if you can't fight with her, and you will lose your status if you fight with her."
Xie Mengxia pursed her lips. Everyone in the world has a bottom line. They are stubborn and stubborn. It's all their own choices.
There are all kinds of delicate flowers in this world, and Yao Yao is the one with the sharpest thorns and the most stubborn temper. He stretched out his hand and patted Yao Yao's shoulder, and said with a smile: "A Yao, no matter who you fight with in the future. , I’m all on your side.”
Yao Yao raised his eyebrows and chuckled jokingly: "Then I can hold your highness's thigh firmly?"
"Steady, steady." Xie Mengxia laughed.
During the evening meal, Meng Sui protected Zhu Neng and Xiao Liuzi back to the inn.
Zhu Neng walked in dejectedly, his energy seemed to have been drained out, and he kept sighing.
He beat gongs and drums for several days, and blew the cold wind in the Chenghuang Temple for most of the day, but he still didn't wait for Li Yushi to come out, and he couldn't help but feel frustrated.
Xiao Liuzi obviously already knew about the changes, and he wiped his tears desperately and cried silently.
Yao Yao's heart softened, and he poured a cup of hot tea and handed it to Zhu Neng: "Master, we will leave Luntai City in a few days. What are your plans?"
Zhu Neng knew what he was capable of. It would be very difficult for him and Xiao Liuzi to survive in Luntai City alone, let alone find someone to take revenge, but he was not willing to leave like this.
He opened his mouth but said nothing.
Yao Yao took a sip of tea and continued: "The people left on the mountain are all old, weak, women and children. It's freezing and cold, and they don't have enough clothes to wear. Can the boss rest assured?"
Xiao Liuzi suddenly raised his head and said: "Master, Uncle Niu has been sick before we went down the mountain. I don't know how he is now."
Zhu Neng angrily cursed: "Get the hell out of here, I'll be waiting for that bastard in Ganzhou City to see if that turtle bastard can hide for the rest of his life."
Xie Mengxia slapped the food table hard: "Yes, let's see how long that turtle bastard can hide."
For several days, it snowed non-stop. The few people who were captured were locked in the firewood shed and drank bowl after bowl of sweat medicine. They fell asleep day after day, and they simply didn't know what the world was.
Xie Mengxia was so busy that he was not afraid of the cold weather. He almost visited all the brothels in Luntai City.
The Four Holy Sect disappeared, and they had nothing to do all day long. Han Changmu and Qing Qian were together, and their affection became deeper and deeper.
Yao Yao watched with cold eyes, the combination of handsome men and beautiful women hanging in front of her eyes all day long. She just wanted to poke her eyes out, so she simply hid out and followed Meng Suige outside in the snow to buy supplies for the return journey.
They say that if it doesn't snow, it becomes cold. After the snow stops, the sky becomes even colder than when it snows. The red sun looks like it has been soaked in ice and snow, and the sunlight it emits is also chilly.
On the way back, Meng Suige and Zhu Neng were exploring the road ahead, followed by two high-carriage cars, one with Xie Mengxia on it and the other with the unlucky Four Saints disciples.
Meng Suigai spent a lot of money to buy several carriages, packed the boxes of pay and money, stacked them firmly on the carriages, and covered them with thick felt blankets.
These salaries are the basis for them to return to Beijing and resume their duties. They cannot make any mistakes on the way.
Qing Qian couldn't ride a horse, and she was unwilling to ride in a high carriage. She insisted on riding a horse with Han Changmu because it was convenient for her to serve him closely.
Hearing this, Yao Yao curled his lips, snorted unabashedly, turned the horse's head and retreated back.
Gu Chen and Yao Yao walked side by side, looking at Han Changmu holding Qing Qian in his arms from a distance, he smiled sarcastically: "A Yao, have you seen what sex makes you faint?"
Yao Yao raised his eyebrows and threw a wine bag: "I can't stop your mouth even if I drink."
Although the weather was cold and there was snow every now and then, the road back was much smoother than when we came here. We didn’t encounter any Turks, wolves, ants, bandits or robbers at all. The journey was smooth. Entered Xingxingxia.
Chen Yanxuan had already welcomed them several miles away and watched Xie Mengxia salute, but in her heart she only thought of Han Changmu. She welcomed everyone to the fort to settle down, and then she had time to salute Han Changmu in private. She almost cried with joy: "Your Majesty, Subordinate, subordinate.”
Han Changmu helped Chen Yanxuan up and said gently: "Okay, I'm fine."
Chen Yanxuan nodded repeatedly and said, "Your Majesty, my subordinates have already ordered people to prepare the evening meal."
Han Changmu wrote a seal and sealed it, handed it to Chen Yanxuan, and solemnly commanded: "Instruct your confidants to send this seal to Beijing and hand it over to Lord Xia of the Department of Internal Security, and ask him to submit it To the saints.”
Chen Yanxuan knew that the matter was of great importance and hurriedly went out to make arrangements.
After finishing the rich and hot dinner, everyone who was already exhausted went back to their rooms to rest. Chen Yanxuan took this time to knock on Han Changmu's room.
He glanced at Qing Qian in the room and hesitated to speak.
Han Changmu said calmly: "It doesn't matter, just say it."
Chen Yanxuan took out the letters he had received in the past few days and handed them to Han Changmu one by one: "Your Majesty, this is the news from Beijing. The turmoil in the Jinwu Guard is too great, and there are not many of our people left."
This was an expected thing. Han Changmu did not show any unexpected emotions and sneered: "Rumors of the death of the King of Han are spreading. It is normal for the King of Qin to be unable to sit still."
Chen Yanxuan raised his eyes and glanced at Qing Qian, a little confused as to why Han Changmu trusted her so much, but he didn't dare to say anything, so he had to bite the bullet and continue: "The matter that the Crown Prince ordered his subordinates to investigate has been investigated clearly, then Zhu Rong Befriended Wang Cong, the deputy lieutenant of the Yumen Army, and Wang Cong and Shazhou Governor Yuan Zhengrong were half-brothers."
"What." Han Changmu was shocked. He went through the resumes of Wang Cong and Yuan Zhengrong carefully in his mind, and said in a deep voice: "The age difference between the two of them is nine years, and their resumes are completely different. How can they be brothers if there is no intersection?"
Chen Yanxuan handed over a piece of paper and nodded with certainty: "Your Majesty, look." He stretched out his hand and clicked on a sentence on the paper: "Yuan Zhengrong's biological mother's surname is Wang, and she is the concubine of Yuan Ming, the head of the Yuan family of the Shazhou noble clan. Later, when Yuan Ming passed away, the mistress left her son alone and sold the Wang family to Suzhou. Wang Cong was from Suzhou and his biological mother was unknown. His subordinates sent people to investigate Suzhou carefully and found out that the Wang family was sold. Later, she was bought back by Wang Pan, the former chief of the Ministry of War, and became a concubine. She gave birth to Wang Cong. Later, Wang Pan and the Wang family died one after another. It was Yuan Zhengrong who raised Wang Cong, but for some reason, the two never mentioned this to anyone. Things, let alone the relationship between the two of them."
Han Changmu understood it completely. He thought silently for a moment, lowered his head, and read the letters one by one. Finally, he put them on the lamp to burn. He tapped the bookcase with his fingers and said calmly: "Bring the news that the King of Han has returned alive." , and I have found half of the robbed wages, and found out the news about the person behind the scenes, spread it out together, and want to publicize it in the Hexi area. "
Chen Yanxuan responded in a deep voice.
Han Changmu's eyes were gloomy, and he smiled slightly and said, "I want to see if these monsters can still bear it."
Chen Yanxuan said hesitantly: "Once the news spreads, Your Majesty, you and His Highness the King of Han will be in danger. Your Majesty, it is easy to block open spears and hard to defend against hidden arrows, so we should bring in the hidden guards."
"No need." Han Changmu shook his head and said coldly: "These hidden arrows are not enough for me to take seriously."
