- Litian City, it is raining lightly;
The peddlers and pawns on the street have not dared to yell for business these days, and in the fenced teahouse, there are no longer storytellers tantalizing "Please listen to the next chapter to explain";
Even the red curtains, which have always been crowded with customers, have stopped these days, and the bustards who are usually in a mess don't dare to go out to scold right and wrong now.
The city is still the same city, and the people are still the same people, but this city and the people here have become cautious.
Teams of soldiers appeared more than usual, with white cloths tied on their left arms, and they were patrolling the city at a steady pace. Many people had red eyes, staring at the people who appeared on the street from time to time, as if they wanted to make a gesture and go up and kill people. .
They are all elites who have seen great battles. They have seen mountains of corpses and seas of blood. When they really want to get angry, they really have such a strong aura, so strong that people dare not look directly at them.
Litian City, as the lair of people who have heard about it, can be regarded as the "capital of a country" in disguise. The people in it are not rural peasants, and they can be regarded as having seen the world, but the more they are like this, the more cold everyone feels Son, it is already midsummer, but there is always a chill on the neck
In an inn, Xiao Er had just brought up a plate of food and wine, and a man in a black coat stood at the door. The man reached out to take the food from Xiao Er, and at the same time threw a piece of silver over.
Logically speaking, at this moment Xiaoer should yell:
"Thank you for the reward!"
At the same time, the amount of the reward was announced loudly, and the counter on the first floor and other staff would also shout "Thank you" in unison, supporting the master who gave the reward.
But this time, Xiao Er just bowed his hands to the man and thanked him with a flattering smile on his face, but he didn't dare to shout out.
At this juncture, any celebration and noise is very uncomfortable.
The man didn't take it seriously, and pushed open the door with the food.
By the small table in the room,
Sitting two men,
One was dressed in a blue long gown, and looked to be in his early thirties, with a very tender face and a very thin voice;
The other was dressed in a Confucian uniform, over fifty years old, stroking his goat beard with his hand, his face was old but his eyes were extremely transparent.
The man put the food on the table, and after saluting, he walked out silently, closed the door, and stood on the corridor outside to resume his previous posture.
In the room,
Li Yinglian picked up the jug, first poured wine for the old man on the opposite side, and then poured it for herself. After putting down the jug, Li Yinglian sighed,
road:
"The miscellaneous family is also in bad luck. For the first time in many years, I received an errand out of Beijing. Who knew that I would encounter such a thing. Ouch, how can I explain to the prince when I go back?"
The old man smiled slightly, instead of drinking, he reached out and grabbed a handful of fried peanuts, threw a few into his mouth, chewed and said:
"Eunuch, why should you be so worried? How could such a big incident have anything to do with you, Eunuch?"
Li Yinglian pointed to the old man,
road:
"You, you, you don't know the spectrum in the minds of the masters. A slave like a miscellaneous family, on the outside, seems to be a slave to the master and has a good reputation, but in the final analysis, if the master likes you, he is willing." use you.
One day, if the master really does not need you, even the little eunuch who has just entered the palace will dare not look at you! "
"Huh?" The old man obviously didn't understand.
"It's just bad luck, think about it, the prince sent me on a business trip this time, and I just encountered this kind of thing. Next time, even if it's for the sake of good luck, I guess he won't dare to use me again, ouch Hello."
Li Yinglian continued to complain about herself.
"Heh." The old man finally understood, and could only sigh in his heart that life in the palace is not easy, eunuchs are born to act;
The old man immediately said again:
"Elder-in-law, although it is said so, how do you know whether the crown prince will feel sad or happy when he knows this?
Therefore, how do you know whether the prince will see you in bad luck or auspicious in the future? "
Li Yinglian just picked up the wine glass, when she heard the words, she flicked her wrist, and the wine spilled out. She hurriedly glanced at the old man in front of her, and scolded:
"Bold!"
The old man continued to "hehe", and continued to eat peanuts at the same time, not taking it seriously.
"You old man, do you know where this place is? Do you know that Jingnan Hou returned to the city last night? The eyes of the soldiers of the Jingnan Army all over the street are so red that they are frighteningly staring!"
The old man remained calm and said:
&n??
"You, you, it is true that after staying in the palace for a long time, there is something wrong with the human brain."
"What's wrong?"
"What thunder from the sky is, of course it's so fake, you actually think about it."
"Then what should the miscellaneous think about?"
"Think about it, Mrs. Jingnanhou, besides being the woman of Lord Hou, what other identity does she have!"
Li Yinglian's face froze for a moment.
Wen Yin continued to put peanuts in his mouth, and at the same time said slowly:
"Over the past few years, I have helped the prince recruit some people from the world to do some shady things in shady places, and more or less, I have also come into contact with people from the Secret Service.
Perhaps they saw that we belonged to our master, and we had never done anything wrong, so they generally turned a blind eye.
But to be honest, it is said that Qianguo Yinjiawei is so pervasive, but we Dayan's secret spy department is by no means easy.
Let's just talk about the Marquis. If she hadn't been pregnant, she would definitely have accompanied the Marquis of Jingnan on his expedition to the snowfield this time.
For a woman like this, do you think she would lose her mind because her husband was away on an expedition or because she had a nightmare?
Then foolishly go to Tianhu Mountain to seek Taoism and Shangxiang to keep safe?
Doesn't she know how many enemies Jingnan Hou has outside?
Don't talk about anything else, just in the land of the Three Jins, there are countless people who want to kill Jingnan Hou! "
Li Yinglian sipped her wine while listening;
"The key to this question is why our Madam Hou of Jingnan left the heavily guarded Hou Mansion and went to Tiantian Hushan."
Li Yinglian pouted and asked subconsciously:
"Why?"
Clinker, Wen Yin's next sentence was so frightened that the wine glass in Li Yinglian's hand fell to the ground and smashed to pieces. At the same time, the big man outside the door opened the door and rushed in after hearing the sound.
"Get out, get out!"
Li Yinglian immediately pointed at the door and said sharply.
The big man froze for a moment, saluted, and then exited the guest room, closing the door again at the same time.
Li Yinglian stroked her chest with her left hand, and instead of sitting on a chair, she squatted on the ground,
He raised his head,
Staring at the old man Wen Yin,
In a low voice and hoarsely, he asked:
"How dare you, how dare you!"
Wen Yin continued to eat peanuts at ease,
And the sentence he asked earlier still lingered in Li Yinglian's ears, every word hurting the eardrum:
"Eunuch Li, you were sent by the Crown Prince to congratulate the children of the Marquis of Jingnan, then, did His Majesty also send someone here?"
