Chapter 541: Bowl after bowl, it’s all money
Guanghanke!
As soon as he heard these three words, the expression on Pei Xingyuan's face became even more surprised: "Didn't you say that this person has always been hiding his head and tail? Didn't you see him?"
Shen Wuzheng was deep and heavy. Said: "I do I didn’t see him in person. This person had been hiding in the private room during the poetry competition that day, and the poems he wrote were circulated for competition. I didn’t even know whether the other person was a boy or a girl.”
“ That——"
"However, because that poem was so brilliant, I was indeed interested in someone who could write such a wonderful poem, so I paid attention to the room where that person was."
"Then what do you see? What's wrong?"
"That Guanghan guest After winning the poetry competition, he left through the back door, but before leaving, his servant went out and gave the waiter some reward. "
"Reward? "
Pei Xingyuan’s eyes lit up: “Could it be that——”
Shen Wuzheng nodded: "That's when I saw the money bag from a distance."
"..."
"However, I didn't see the money bag clearly at that time. , I could only see the black paint in the man’s hand from a distance There was a ball of moonlight on the paint, and although it looked familiar, I didn’t associate it with the money bag, let alone connect these things together.”
“…”
"Now that I think about it——"
As he spoke, there was a hint of aura in his calm tone.
Although he had made countless conjectures and assumptions about the situation in front of him and the "enemy" Shang Ruyi and the others were facing, he never thought that the person who beat him to win the first prize in the poetry competition would make him feel... The quick-thinking Guang Hanke whom some admire is actually the same person who has put Yu Wenye and Shang Ruyi in trouble these days and who can predict the future!
Shen Wuzheng considers himself to be able to strategize, and even major events in the court can be carried out under his calculations, but compared to the other party, he is currently in a passive situation. That "Guanghanke" didn't even show his face, but in just a few months he left them on the verge of life and death several times!
Even Shang Ruyi almost came close——
Thinking of this, Shen Wuzheng's gentle but deep eyes dimmed slightly, and a sharp light flashed under his eyes.
Pei Xingyuan, who was standing aside, also fell into deep thought.
At this time, he realized for the first time how terrifying the other party was. If before, he only realized that their opponent was a master of strategizing, now, he even felt that there seemed to be something in the other party. A mysterious force.
Otherwise, how could ordinary people have such ability?
He couldn't help but sigh: "There are such people in the world!"
Hearing what he said, Shang Ruyi felt a little heavier.
Yes, there are such people in the world.
But this person is their enemy!
On their way back to Daxing City, they used falling rocks and even tried to harm them with sulfur and saltpeter, so that they would all be buried in that narrow valley;
When they returned to Daxing City, when When everyone's attention was focused on the Dharma Assembly at Dayan Temple, they began to pray in Daxing City again. He searched for all the medicines that could cure the plague, and later expanded the scope of the search to almost the entire Guanzhong area. As a result, Yu Wenye fell ill during the Battle of Fufeng, and there was almost no cure;
After that, in In the poetry competition held by Shenjuan Pavilion, Shen Wuzheng won the first prize with an extraordinary poem. But that poem, on the surface, describes the Battle of Fufeng, but in fact, it completely obliterates the existence of Yu Wenye and Shang Ruyi in the Battle of Fufeng;
Now, when the plague was raging and Yu Wenyuan divided the entire Daxing city into east and west cities and handed them over to his two sons to divide and rule, he only applied medicine in Yanzuo Fang under the jurisdiction of the east city.
This step by step, step by step, is all aimed at them!
And all this was done by this one person.
Guanghanke!
For a moment, these days were hidden behind the fog, which made Shang Ruyi feel like a lump in his throat, and even more like a figure in a nightmare, as if it suddenly became clear.
She subconsciously turned her head to look at Yanzuo Square not far away. Although the two squares were adjacent, they were separated by Suzaku Street. Now it was more like a natural chasm that was insurmountable, and even more so. What's more, the other party didn't even want to reveal their name when they came to administer medicine, so naturally they couldn't show up easily.
It will not be easy for them to find him.
At this time, Wuxue seemed to feel something. Looking at Shang Ruyi’s frown and the solemn expressions of the two young masters, she suddenly whispered: “Young madam, do you want to go over and inquire more? ? Maybe, what clues can be found? "
"..."
Hearing this, Shang Ruyi frowned slightly and turned to look at Shen Wuzheng.
But Shen Wuzheng shook his head and said, "No need."
"..."
"We have already made arrangements, so don't mess up at this time."
" ..."
"The other party is a person who may be unpredictable. We don't know as much as the other party, so we must think more and deeper than this person, otherwise, it will not be so easy to find this person. "
Hearing the word "deeper" in his mouth, Shang Ruyi took a deep breath.
She nodded lightly: "I understand." Then she turned to Wuxue and said, "You'd better go back to Dr. Su to help. Don't tell anyone what happened just now."
Wuxue nodded immediately: " The slave understands.”
After saying that, he turned around and walked away, while Shang Ruyi stood there, watching her slender back blend into the crowd, and then turned to look not far away, which was also surrounded by smoke. The unfathomable Yan Zuofang's eyes were a little deeper.
In a blink of an eye, half a day passed.
On the quiet and spacious Suzaku Street, a group of galloping horses suddenly appeared. The hoofs of the horses shattered the tranquility of half the city, and the sound echoed all the way to the city gate.
For a moment, the city gate slowly opened amid a long and hoarse neighing sound.
The group of people and horses immediately galloped out of the city, and as the sound of horse hooves went away, the rising smoke and dust was wrapped in the wind and blown into the city. After a while, it blew away the mist that spread over the city. Around Zuofang, smoke exudes a strong medicinal aroma.
Pei Xingyuan stood in the middle of Zhuque Street, watching the city gate not far away closing again, but his eyes seemed to follow the invisible men and horses galloping out, going to an invisible place. He slowly turned around until there was no trace of horse hooves left in the wind.
Ahead is Yanzuofang.
This place is also tightly surrounded like Changlefang, and is guarded by guards directly dispatched by the Ministry of War. As soon as Pei Xingyuan and his two servants approached, several soldiers at the entrance immediately reached out to stop him. . As soon as Xingyuan approached, the soldiers at the entrance immediately stopped him.
"Master Pei, please stay."
Pei Xingyuan followed Shan Ruliu and stopped immediately.
But he stopped, but did not leave. Instead, he said with a smile: "Thank you for your hard work."
These soldiers naturally knew the identity of the Second Young Master Pei, but they did not exchange more greetings with him. They only said with a straight face: "The Duke has an order that the people in the city cannot travel between the streets and markets at will. Although Young Master Pei has a great age, The general's warrant, but that warrant can only be used in Xicheng, our side -"
"I know," Pei Xingyuan still smiled 's: "This is Dongcheng, the eldest son's territory, right."
He said, but still did not leave, and stretched his neck to look inside, saying: "I just came to take a look, you guys How is the situation here? Have some people been cured? "
Several soldiers looked at each other and couldn't help but frown.
Who in this city today doesn’t know that the two cities in the east and west are secretly competing to eliminate the epidemic and cure the patients one step ahead of the other. Pei Xingyuan is selling medicine in the west city, and it has been spread that he sells medicine at high prices. Yes, no matter how unethical this move is, after all, it is Yu Wenye who is helping, which means he is clearly on the same side, but for him to actually come here to inquire, it is a bit too childish.
He doesn't take them seriously either.
Then the soldier said: "Mr. Pei, this has nothing to do with you people in the West City."
Pei Xingyuan blinked his eyes and said with a smile: "Aren't all the people in the East City and the West City doing great things? How can you say that the people of the dynasty have nothing to do with it? I just-"
Before he finished speaking, he stopped suddenly and looked ahead with bright eyes.
Hearing the sound of footsteps behind him, the soldier turned around and saw a group of figures of different heights walking out of the shop in the smoke that was gradually dissipated by the wind.
It was the people who Wuxue saw applying medicine in Yanzuofang before.
The person walking at the front is a middle-aged man in his thirties. He is short in stature, has dark skin, and is as lean as a monkey. Although he looks the least conspicuous in the crowd, he is walking in the center. Obviously Is a leader. As he walked, he turned his head to tell the people behind him -
"You guys go back, keep brewing the medicine, don't stop."
The person walking beside him also A middle-aged man in his forties, slightly taller than him, with sallow skin, heard this He immediately said: "Daji, there are more than a hundred servings of soup today. If you go back and make it again, do you need to reduce the dose?"
A young man in his twenties with a simple and honest face also said on the other side: " Yes, the extra soup has been thrown away, which is a pity.”
Jin Daji thought for a while after hearing this.
When he just said something, he looked up and saw Pei Xingyuan and others standing outside the entrance. His small black bean-like eyes flickered and he immediately said: "Although there are too many medicines today, , but there must still be patients in the city who have not been found. Prepare for tomorrow. We need more decoction."
"..."
"Remember, you would rather throw away more than let others drink it, do you understand? ”
As soon as he heard this, the people behind Pei Xingyuan frowned.
You know, the medicinal materials here in Xicheng are not enough. They not only have to calculate the dosage, but also try their best to fill it up with other medicinal materials with similar effects. However, they did not expect that there will be so many medicinal materials in Dongcheng that they can throw away the soup.
It is inevitable to be a little unconvinced.
However, Pei Xingyuan seemed to have no money at all. He turned back to the people behind him with a somewhat envious expression: "Look, we have to beg grandpa to sue grandma for a bowl of medicine and a penny. There is so much more to grab than others.”
When Jin Daji heard this, he turned around and turned towards another path with a group of people without saying a word. go.
But Pei Xingyuan did not stop them, and did not even talk to them. He turned around and walked towards Changlefang with his people. As he walked, he sighed: "The bowls are poured out one after another. It’s all money!”
Just as he turned the corner, Jin Daji suddenly looked back.
A greedy light flashed in those small black bean-like eyes.
