Chapter 92 Li Dai Tao Zhan
Lu Yu went to Xinghua Yanyu Tower as ordered.
Xiao Jinyu said softly: "Thank you!"
"Do you know what I want to do?" Gao Changgong asked instead.
Xiao Jinyu just smiled.
"The prince is also a thoughtful person!"
As Xiao Jinyu, she had only been to the Xinghua Yanyu Building today, and then she changed her clothes with Fenghuang and went to Fahua Mountain. If anyone checked, they would only be able to find out that she had been to the Xinghua Yanyu Building.
Gao Changgong ordered Lu Yu to invite Lady Wei, and his intention was very obvious.
This is a plan of a golden cicada escaping from its shell and a peach on behalf of the dead!
"Does the prince know who is following and spying?" Xiao Jinyu asked again.
"Chen Shuling, King of Shixing, or an envoy from the Kingdom of Zhou, no matter who it is, knowing your identity will be detrimental to you."
He answered calmly, as if all this had been expected.
"However, what puzzles me is that His Majesty Chen Xu of the Chen Kingdom looks at you very unusually. Did you have any connection in the past?" He asked instead.
Xiao Jinyu shook his head with a slight smile and spoke sarcastically.
"Maybe... he once killed people from the Xie family, so he feels guilty!" she said.
Gao Changgong was slightly startled.
Naturally, he had heard about what kind of person Chen Xu was. A person who was ungrateful for the sake of imperial power and throne, killing his nephews and the former emperor's pampered people, must not be a kind person. Naturally, he had a lot of human lives on his hands.
What's more, since ancient times, there have been rumors about the fight between cloth and millet, and the theory that the two brothers are incompatible. Isn't this the case with the imperial power struggle in the Gao family of the Northern Qi Dynasty?
Have you ever killed anyone from the Xie family in Chen County?
But why do you care so much about the Xie family in Chen County, and even become famous as a member of the Xie family?
And when I think of her standing alone on Fahua Mountain today to argue against all the heroes, her indestructible self-confidence and willpower, her calmness that remains unchanged even if the mountain collapses in front of her, the kind of celebrity who belongs to the Jin people. His grace is something that few men in the world can match!
Feeling his gaze, Xiao Jinyu raised her head and smiled back, asking, "Do you have anything else to ask, Prince?"
Prince Lanling smiled, and before he knew it, he came forward and faced her again.
"There are no more questions, but..." He said in her ear again, "I can consider the porcelain business you mentioned before."
As if he was afraid of being heard, he lowered his voice very low, moved his cheek slightly, looked into her black and white eyes as clear as ink jade, and said seriously:
"I, Gao Changgong, want to cooperate with you."
When Xiao Jinyu said this, she felt that he was very close, so that the breath she exhaled was like a warm wind blowing on her cheeks. She just raised her long eyelashes slightly, and she was already facing him. Slightly smiling eyes like midnight.
He was looking at her with a curious and expectant look, or "tempting" her...
Unknowingly, she smiled slightly and asked jokingly, as if not to be outdone: "Prince, are you trying to seduce me?"
Because of his beauty, Prince Lanling, who had been used to being watched like crazy by young ladies since childhood, rarely had his ears turn red...
…
"Your prince wants to see me? Why? And you want me to bring a boy as tall as that barbarian boy?"
After hearing Lu Yu's request, Mrs. Wei was a little nervous, suspicious, and even uneasy.
"Our county prince said that you owe him five thousand taels. Isn't this request too much?"
"That means that if I go, he won't want the five thousand taels?"
Madam Wei was a little curious, even surprised.
Lu Yu couldn't help but sneered disdainfully: "You have a good idea, but you also have to see how my county king is feeling? You go once, and I'll do the math for you. It's at most fifty taels. I've already calculated it. Is that enough?”
"What do you mean? Are you saying that I'm only worth fifty taels?" Madam Wei raised her eyebrows.
Lu Yu secretly sighed that something was wrong and quickly smiled:
"I was wrong, I was wrong, five hundred taels, okay? My county prince sincerely wants to ask Mrs. Wei for help. Just do it and help us. I will repay you one day!"
Mrs. Wei, who was soft-hearted but not stubborn, finally agreed to Lu Yu's soft pleas. She left the Xinghua Yanyu Tower with a servant and covered the curtain, and followed Lu Yu to the carriage belonging to King Lanling. Drive straight to the embassy.
Along the way, the two people following him were inexplicably curious. "Why did King Lanling ask the proprietress of Xinghua Yanyu Tower to do this? Does he still want to do business with this half-old lady, Madam Wei?" one of them asked.
"Who knows? Not long ago it was reported that he is a good man!"
"Anyway, let's wait and see. The prince said that our target is Mr. Xie Xiaolang. Once we find out that he has left the embassy, or any suspicious person other than him has left the embassy, we will arrest him immediately!"
"yes!"
…
After Mrs. Wei entered the embassy, she was placed in a side hall. The tables were filled with tea and snacks for her to eat and drink. Lu Yu only told her one sentence and asked her to rest here and have tea, and then she never looked back. See a figure.
Unknowingly, Mrs. Wei had been drinking tea for half an hour and had to go to the toilet several times.
It was not until two hours later that Lu Yucai arrived late, and Madam Wei suddenly became furious.
"Your prince is playing tricks on me, isn't he? He asked me to come and didn't show up. What does he want to do?"
"Shhh - keep your voice down, our county prince hates noisy people the most. If you make trouble again, be careful that my prince will kill you if he is unhappy!"
Madam Wei quickly covered her mouth and stopped talking. Rumors about the lewd and cruel kings of the Gao family of the Northern Qi Dynasty flashed in her mind. Although the King of Lanling had a reputation for being kind and virtuous, he was still considered a member of the Gao family after all. There was no guarantee that he would not be like that. Hidden tyranny exists.
Seeing that she no longer complained, Lu Yu achieved his goal and said seriously: "Now I can take you to see the king of my county!"
"Okay, okay!"
Following Lu Yu to the main hall of the embassy, Lady Wei saw King Lanling, dressed in black clothes, sitting there with his eyebrows contemplating something.
Seeing her coming, he slowly opened his eyes, casting a clear gaze that made it impossible to figure out the meaning.
But she seemed to be frozen and didn't dare to move.
Especially when faced with such a handsome, god-like face, any woman's heartbeat would slow down a beat when she saw it. Fortunately, Mrs. Wei was already past the age of a young girl, otherwise how could she withstand it?
"What's the matter with the prince calling the slave family here?" Seeing that he didn't speak for a long time, she asked first.
Prince Lanling glanced at her and suddenly said lazily: "I can't sleep on a moonlit night, and I feel very lonely..."
He originally wanted to come and chat with you, but Madam Wei was startled and said hurriedly: "Prince, you are not really interested in me, an old lady, are you?"
"Bah -" Lu Yu choked out a mouthful of water, "Ms. Wei, where did you get your crazy confidence?"
"That's good, that's good!"
Mrs. Wei patted her chest and murmured in a low voice as if talking to herself: "I was scared to death. I thought I was crooked!"
"What are you muttering about?" Lu Yu asked from the side.
Mrs. Wei was busy doing plastic surgery and said with a smile: "Nothing, nothing!"
At this moment, Prince Lanling looked at her suspiciously and suddenly asked: "Mrs. Wei, have we met before?"
"How is that possible? Prince, you have grown up in the land of Northern Qi since you were a child, right? And I, Wei Qike, have never been to Qi. How could you have seen me? It is impossible for me to have seen you!"
Mrs. Wei said a series of words.
"It's not necessarily..." Gao Changgong suddenly murmured and sighed, "Maybe I have been in the land of Northern Qi since I was six years old, but my memory before the age of six is a bit blank, and I can't remember it, but I seem to remember you. It seems like someone has brought me here before at Xinghua Yanyu Building..."
Madam Wei was silent for a moment, then smiled and said: "The slave family doesn't know about that. This is the king's business and has nothing to do with the slave family!"
"Is it really irrelevant?" Gao Changgong asked again.
Wei Qi lowered her head and shook her head firmly.
"It's irrelevant, it's really irrelevant!"
King Lanling stood up at this time. He walked to the palace, glanced at Madam Wei, and stood with his hands behind his back.
"Okay, I'm done asking, you can go back!"
Mrs. Wei was overjoyed and turned to leave, but then she heard him change the topic:
"However, you can't go through the main entrance, and you can't be dressed like this!" After saying that, he turned to Lu Yu and ordered, "Give her some clothes, and then let Yang Zhi and Zhao Wu take them back!"
"Yes, Prince!"
