After Shen Wei prepared the carriage, Shen Wei, accompanied by Su Minghua, walked out directly from the back door, while Jinglan also sat on the carriage. Zhao Xuanyi nodded to Jinglan, and Jinglan gave Zhao Xuanyi a reassuring look and got on After the carriage, Shen Wei shook the reins and the four of them rode straight to Tai Feng Tower!
Zhao Xuanyi was sitting in the carriage, feeling very nervous. Now that he has ruined the man in black's plan over and over again, it is estimated that today will be a Hongmen Banquet!
The carriage walked in front, followed by a group of voices, headed by Tang Tianli, with a hundred Qilin Guards behind them. Their steps were light and their whereabouts were secretive. Against the backdrop of the dark night, they looked like a group of mysterious assassins. Everyone's The eyes are very serious!
The capital city is very quiet at night. Apart from the occasional barking of dogs, there is basically no other sound. However, the quieter the surroundings are at this time, the more nervous Zhao Xuanyi feels. To be honest, he is not afraid of the man in black at all, but he What he was afraid of was that Tang Rou's life was in his hands. If she didn't follow him, Tang Rou would be in danger. This feeling of being restrained was very uncomfortable!
A quarter of an hour later, the carriage came to a stop outside Taifeng Tower. Zhao Xuanyi just got off the carriage and stood there. He looked up and looked inside Taifeng Tower. There was no sound at all. This was very wrong!
Tai Feng Restaurant is the largest restaurant in the capital. There are no customers until midnight every day. Why is it so quiet now? This is so strange! Shen Wei on the side also felt something was wrong and came behind Zhao Xuanyi: "Young Master, you will stand behind me in a moment!"
"Sure!" Zhao Xuanyi was not sure what the man in black was going to do, so he couldn't be careless!
Shen Wei was the first to walk into the gate of Taifeng Tower, Zhao Xuanyi was in the middle, Su Minghua was at the end, and Jinglan was sitting on the carriage, ready to take over and leave at any time!
After the three people walked into Taifeng Building, they glanced at the hall and saw that the hall was brightly lit, but there was no guest. Zhao Xuanyi sneered, "The blind man lights up!"
Shen Wei and Su Minghua also laughed when they heard this, and just after Zhao Xuanyi finished speaking, a waiter came over and said, "Hey, isn't this Lord Zhao? You are here!"
Zhao Xuanyi looked at the waiter and said, "Did something happen to your restaurant?"
"Something happened? No!"
"Then why are there no customers today?"
"Ah, it's like this. A distinguished guest came today and booked the restaurant. He said he was not allowed to welcome other guests and could only wait for you, so he didn't let other guests in! This distinguished guest has been waiting for a long time. It’s in box number one upstairs, I’ll take you up there!”
"Let's go!" Zhao Xuanyi said in his heart, he is so generous, he already has a lot of money, and he doesn't spend it like this! It’s true that if you have money, you will be willful, but if you don’t have money, you will accept your fate!
The group of people arrived on the second floor. After the waiter took the three of them to the box No. 1, he opened the door and made an invitation gesture, "Master Marquis, please!"
Zhao Xuanyi didn't say anything. He was about to enter when he was stopped by Shen Wei. Shen Wei was the first to walk into the private room. He quickly looked around the private room and saw a banquet prepared in the private room. There were three people opposite the banquet. personal!
A man in black robes was sitting at the main seat, with two people in black clothes standing behind him. After careful inspection, no one else was found, so Shen Wei moved out of the way!
Zhao Xuanyi walked in and immediately saw the man in black sitting at the main seat. Zhao Xuanyi walked to the dining table and slowly sat on the chair, with Shen Wei and Su Minghua standing behind him.
"Master Zhao? No, it should be called Duke Zhao, right?" the man in black said with a smile.
"If I can do anything for this prince, I would like to thank you for your help. If you don't assassinate the king in Xi'an, how can I accomplish anything?" Zhao Xuanyi said with a sneer.
"Then Duke Zhao owes me a drink?"
"Logically speaking, I should owe you a meal, but I can't afford this meal today. I heard that you have booked this entire building!"
"Dong Zhao Guo, are you planning to default on your debt?"
Zhao Xuanyi laughed loudly after hearing this, "How could that be? In this way, in half a month, I will get married, and I will prepare a special table for you. How about you come to my house to talk about it?"
"Wedding?"
"That's right! I'm getting married to Tang Rou, and I also want to ask you to be our officiant. After all, it's your help that allowed me to be with Tang Rou so smoothly!"
After hearing this, the man in black's eyes showed a shrewd light, "You're welcome, adults will eventually get married, which is also a matter of accumulating evil virtue!"
"Your Excellency invited me here so late. Could it be that you are discussing a banquet with me?" Zhao Xuanyi no longer wanted to waste words with the person in front of him. This person's city was completely beyond his imagination, so he had better be careful. !
"Chatting with smart people saves trouble. Let me tell you, Duke Zhao, I carefully prepared two plans, but you ruined them both. Isn't it a bit too much?"
"This...how can you blame me? You didn't inform me before you acted, and I didn't know it was you. Moreover, my order is to protect the safety of the royal family. I just did my job well. Is there any problem with this? "
The man in black laughed loudly after hearing this, "Mr. Zhao Guo is really eloquent and eloquent! You killed and arrested my people, but in the end you were justified!"
"If I'm not afraid of your anger, it doesn't look like a serious matter for you to assassinate the current emperor, right?"
The man in black nodded, "Well, since this matter didn't succeed, that's it! Let's talk about something more serious. Now is the farming season for farmers. I know that Duke Zhao distributed potatoes and pumpkins to the people!"
"But you still have three vegetables in your hand, tomatoes, eggplants and peppers. These three vegetables from the Western Regions are also hard to find, so I want Duke Zhao to sell me the seeds of these three vegetables. What do you think?"
After Zhao Xuanyi heard this, he did not answer immediately because he was thinking that what he blocked was an important thing that he had planned for a long time. Did he forgive himself just like that? No need to embarrass yourself, just want the seeds of these three vegetables?
"Mr. Zhao Guogong?" Seeing that Zhao Xuanyi had not spoken for a long time, the man in black asked again.
"You want money and people, why do you suddenly want to grow vegetables?" Zhao Xuanyi asked very vigilantly.
"Zhao Guogong's vegetables from the Western Regions are noble in the entire Ming Dynasty. These three vegetables are obviously not produced in large quantities, and they cannot be eaten as staple food, but they are still extremely delicious. I also want to grow them and sell them. The profits are of course considerable. of!"
"Are you serious?" Zhao Xuanyi asked.
"Of course! I wonder what price Zhao Guogong wants?"
When Zhao Xuanyi heard what the man in black said, he kept muttering in his heart. Although these things were rare in the Ming Dynasty, they were definitely valuable, but it was a bit incredible no matter how much he thought about it, that someone like him who was doing great things could actually make money in this way.
"free!"
"Free?" The man in black was a little surprised. When did Zhao Xuanyi become so easy to talk to?
"It is not a valuable thing in the first place. If you want it, just send someone to the mansion tomorrow. I will prepare all the seeds and hand them over to you!" Zhao Xuanyi said very calmly.
"Okay! Mr. Zhao Guo is really happy. Let me toast you!" The man in black raised his glass and said.
Zhao Xuanyi looked at the man in black and said, "I don't want to offend you, but you are wearing a mask, how can you open your mouth to eat?"
"This is easy!" The man in black put his hand on the chin of the mask and took out a piece of iron. Zhao Xuanyi looked at it in surprise. It turned out that there was a movable place under the mask in front of the lips!
"Please!" the man in black said, picking up the wine glass.
"Please!" Zhao Xuanyi raised his wine glass and the two of them took a sip of wine!
"Now Zhao Guogong is already less than one person and more than ten thousand people. I wonder what the plan is?"
Zhao Xuanyi frowned slightly: "What do you mean?"
"I don't need to say more. Duke Zhao also understands that even if you are the Duke or the Prince, you are nothing more than a word from the Emperor. Your status can only scare those civil and military officials. In front of any relatives of the Emperor, you are nothing more than a word." He’s just a slave!”
"In the old days, the king Xietang Qianyan flew into the homes of ordinary people! Zhao Guogong, while you now have the power and soldiers, why don't you think about your future?" The man in black asked with a smile.
Zhao Xuanyi thought to himself, are we finally going to start talking about important things? Zhao Xuanyi just smiled relaxedly, "I don't have any ambitions, and I have never thought about directing the country. To be honest, I am very satisfied with my current life. Even if it gives me the emperor, I won't change it!"
"Mr. Zhao Guogong, your vision is a bit too narrow, right?"
"You must have a heart to conquer the world. Sorry, I can't help you!" After Zhao Xuanyi finished speaking, he didn't intend to waste time with him. He stood up and prepared to leave!
At this time, the two men in black behind the man in black immediately stood up and said, "How dare you turn your back on the young master?"
Shen Wei and Su Minghua immediately protected Zhao Xuanyi behind them, and they also grabbed the weapons with both hands. "Who is this person of yours? He only knows how to use bad methods, what kind of young master is he? He has the ability to bring back the antidote for three lives." Hand it over, and let's get real again and ask this guy of yours if he dares?" Shen Wei cursed loudly without any politeness!
"You're looking for death!" The man in black on the left flicked his hands, and two handfuls of Fenshui Emei were stabbed into his palms. He rushed over to prepare for a fight. The man in black suddenly raised his hand and signaled the two men in black to retreat! When the two men in black saw the man in black giving the order, they reluctantly put away their weapons and stepped aside!
"The guard is right. I am not a gentleman, and I dare not hand over the antidote so quickly, so Duke Zhao can think about it slowly. If you suddenly figure it out one day, you can come to me at any time! Let's conspire together. Big plan!" The man in black said with a smile.
"I guess there won't be such a day, let's go!" After Zhao Xuanyi finished speaking, he left the box. Shen Wei and Su Minghua stared at the three people, slowly backed away, and only turned around and left when they reached the door!
The three of them carefully went downstairs. When they came outside, Jinglan hurriedly drove the car over, "Are you okay?"
Shen Wei shook his head and helped Zhao Xuanyi get on the carriage. Su Minghua followed suit. Shen Wei turned to look at the darkness at the street corner and raised his hand to make a gesture!
After Tang Tianli saw it, he felt relieved and turned to look behind him, "Retreat!"
"Yes!" More than a hundred Qilin Guards slowly retreated into the night and slowly disappeared!
After Zhao Xuanyi returned to the mansion, he entered the courtyard directly from the back door! Zhao Xuanyi said nothing along the way, but Shen Wei and Su Minghua both heard what the man in black said. It was obvious that the man in black had evil intentions! But Zhao Xuanyi did not agree, which is enough to prove Zhao Xuanyi's integrity and loyalty! This also made Tang Chenwei and Su Minghua admire Zhao Xuanyi even more. At least he was not a person who gave in because of gold and silver!
Zhao Xuanyi looked at Su Minghua and I, "Brothers, it's getting late. You go back and rest first. Have a rest tonight and let's go out for a walk tomorrow!"
"Sure!" Several people nodded in agreement.
"Brother Shen, ask someone to prepare some seeds. If someone comes to pick them up tomorrow, just give them to him, don't worry about anything else!"
"clear!"
Zhao Xuanyi nodded, then walked into Tang Rou's courtyard and into the room. He saw both Hakeem and Hakney there. When they saw Zhao Xuanyi coming, they stood up in a hurry, "Young Master is back!"
Tang Rou hurriedly stood up and came to Zhao Xuanyi. Her eyes carefully looked up and down Zhao Xuanyi's body, "Are you okay?"
Zhao Xuanyi gave Tang Rou a reassuring smile, "It's okay. I came to see you just to reassure you!"
