Chapter 123
Shopkeeper Zhao drank a little with Wang Yanling and drank a little too much, but Wang Yanling also remembered what he said. Wang Yanling stood up and pretended to close the window. In fact, she saw if anyone outside eavesdropped. If it was heard by others, it would be troublesome. He was sure that no one eavesdropped, and then turned back. "Shopkeeper Zhao How do you know these things?
"Ha ha, guest officer, you are really joking. There is nothing I don't know about in Cangzhou. How can I not know? Not only that, this guy later made a lot of fanfare and public **. As long as you pay, he can help you get an official position. As for the official position, it depends on how much you spend, and what kind of official can he add to you? For example, if you don't have a lot of money, but still want to be an official, you can spend a hundred taels. Although it looks a lot, you can buy a city gate official if you are a nothing at the king of Cangzhou. Many people buy this official, he has a way to manage this city gate in minutes. For example, one in the morning and in the afternoon Just change it. There are paid officials everywhere, alas..."
Wang Yanling frowned and said to himself that Cangzhou is really a land of tigers and wolves. He then asked, "Isn't there a clean official here?"
"If you can't say so, how can you generalize? There are Qing officials, but I don't know if you have heard of this person. His surname is Liu, and his name is Liu Shusheng. He is of good character, upright and upright. He is a clean official, and he is a good man, but what's the result? How dare he stop Li Zhe from doing such a thing and wrote a memorial behind his back and wanted to report it to the court. Can he get out? As a result, even people and memorials fell into Li Zhe's hands. Li Zhe was furious and killed all 50 people in Lord Liu's family with unnecessary charges. Well, no, one of them seemed to be Liu Ruyan, the only daughter of Liu Shusheng. Because she was not at home to avoid this difficulty, Li Zhe went to the sea to arrest* and arrested Liu Ruyan everywhere, but It hasn't been caught, so it's over..."
Wang Yanling remembered the name, Liu Ruyan!
After drinking a few more sips of wine, Manager Zhao is now in the fog, "guest officer, what are you doing in Cangzhou? I think you are all extraordinary, and you must not be idle people!"
Wang Yanling was happy, "Shopkeeper Zhao, we came to Cangzhou to visit a few friends. We haven't seen each other for many years. I don't know if they are still in Cangzhou!"
"You don't have to worry. As long as you need my help, I will definitely help, but you really caught up with a relatively important thing when you came to Cangzhou!"
"Oh~~! What's the matter?"
"If you are interested, you might as well have a try. At that time, you can enjoy endless glory and wealth. Li Zhe is now going to hold a martial arts competition in the military field. I hope that heroes from all walks of life in the world will participate, and he will choose the top martial arts champion!"
"Why did he choose the champion of martial arts?"
"Li Zhe is willing to associate with people in the world and also likes martial arts. I don't know what's going on. According to my analysis, he may want to learn martial arts, or be his own bodyguard or something. Anyway, this matter is quite big, and the whole Cangzhou has caused a sensation!"
"When will the martial arts competition start?"
"I'll count it," as Manager Zhao pinched his fingers and calculated, "There are still three days left. The martial arts competition will officially begin. This is the first sensational event when Li Zhe came to Cangzhou. You have to open your eyes!"
"Then your store should also be full. Why is no one coming?"
"Look, you think, this is a small shop. Can Wulin Haojie live in my shop? How faceless. Go out and make other martial arts colleagues laugh. I can't do it here..."
As I was talking, I heard the clerk downstairs shout, "There are guests in the showcase!"
Shopkeeper Zhao stood up and said, "Guest, you drink by yourself first. I'll go down to greet the guests, and then come up to accompany you!"
Wang Yanling saw that he had drunk too much. He helped him and walked downstairs. At a glance, there was a Wensheng prince standing at the door, who was very handsome, but his eyebrows were murderous. Wang Yanling was stunned. How to look at it, why didn't she look like a man? She seemed to be a woman dressed as a man with an extraordinary temperament, carrying a sword behind her back. , a very sign, the showcase came to him, "I'm sorry, guest officer, I chatted with the guests on it for a while, and I hope you can forgive me!"
The man looked at it and said, "Shopkeeper, give me a guest room! It must be clean!"
"Okay, you must be satisfied!"
"In addition, prepare some more food for me. My stomach is a little empty!"
"No problem, man, say hello. The guest officer will follow me upstairs and look at the room first!"
This person followed Mr. Zhao upstairs, and Wang Yanling also came up. What a coincidence, he arranged this gentleman next door to Wang Yanling!
The shopkeeper came out of it for a while. "Sung, I can't drink with you. It's a little too much today. I'll go down and have a look first. First, ask the clerk to remove the remaining seats in your room. You can rest early!"
Wang Yanling nodded. He went down. After a while, the house was cleaned up. Wang Yanling still couldn't sleep. He just thought that the prince who had just came in was not a man. Later, he thought about it. What do I think about? It's none of my business. Let's go to bed. As soon as he lay down, Lord Bao and the others When he came back, he talked and laughed, and then went back to his room. Tao Yuan pushed the door and entered the room, "Are you asleep?"
Wang Yanling turned over and sat up, "How can it be so easy to fall asleep?"
"What's the smell of wine in this room?"
"When you leave, I'm bored when I'm idle, so I let the shopkeeper drink a few drinks with me! Well, as soon as the left-seat was removed, you came back!"
"Oh, that's it!"
How's it going? What did you gain when you went out?
"Hey, don't say anything. Cangzhou is really prosperous. I've been to the capital. It's worse than the capital, but it's really a good place to go today. If you go, you will definitely feel the same!"
"I don't know how many scars are hidden behind this prosperity!" Wang Yanling said this by the way.
Tao Yuan smiled and said, "What's wrong with you today? Why do you have such emotion? Don't think nonsense. Let's get up early tomorrow to discuss what to do next?"
The two fell asleep. Tao Yuan was also a little tired when he came back. After a while, he fell asleep. Wang Yanling closed her eyes, but her fatigue swept away. Thinking about her thoughts, time passed very quickly. Suddenly, it was three days in the middle of the night. People had entered their dreams. As soon as Wang Yanling was in the haze, she heard the room. "Wang", this is the wind driven by clothes when night pedestrians go out. Wang Yanling opened her eyes and said to her heart, is there an assassin?
He gently sat up from ** and looked at another ** Tao Yuan. He was already asleep. He gently opened the window and looked out. He carried a sword on his back. As soon as he changed his waist, he rushed out from inside the room. His waist was full of vigor and eyes, and the pearls hung the curtain hung on the eaves. Up, close the window and fight hard. I went up to the roof, put my hand on the pergola, and looked around. Suddenly, I found a dark shadow going west. Wang Yanling thought about it and seemed to have passed by the inn. Should I chase it or not?
Later, he decided to see what was going on, fell down and followed him...
Chasing, a high wall flashed in front of him. Looking down from a high place, the courtyard was very elegant, and people didn't turn off the lights at night, so he could see it very clearly. Looking at the dark shadow, he shook at the high wall and disappeared. Wang Yanling looked down for a while. He didn't know where it was. He quietly turned to the front. At first glance, the gate was elegant, and there was also someone guarding it at night. He took a closer look and saw the four big golden characters 'Cangzhou Palace' on it!
Wang Yanling thought to himself, this is the Cangzhou Royal Mansion. It's so elegant. Why don't I come to visit the royal palace tonight? In case I find any strong evidence for us, I can go back and give Lord Bao an explanation!
Thinking of this, Wang Yanling turned to the back. Wang's mansion was really big. Looking at the backyard wall, he saw that it was about two feet five or six feet high. It could be said that it was a deep house compound. It was not true at all, but it was impossible to block Wang Yanling. Wang Yanling rose up on his toes, rushed to the high wall, and lay on the wall. What should I do if I am plotted? Looking into the courtyard, there was nothing. It turned out that there were back gardens, rockery, pools, flowers, and many things. There was no one. Wang Yanling was relieved. Her legs floated and she came down from the wall, and there was no sound. He crept to the rockery. His shadow caught his figure and poked out his head to look forward. Suddenly, a dark shadow came from the front. After a flash, Wang Yanling was shocked. Couldn't I be found out?
He stayed behind the rockery for a while without any sound. Thinking about it, it was probably the shadow I had just chased. He continued to grope forward and arrived at the real backyard. At this time, he saw the figure shaking and the light shaking. A team of people came over, the leading man, 50 or 60 years old, behind He also followed a few people, holding lanterns, and listened to the people in front of him say, "I said that the prince will be angry with your hands and feet. At that time, you can't eat and walk around!" I said, why hasn't the little red girl brought the lotus seed soup yet? The prince is waiting? All right, go ahead and I'll urge you!"
