Chapter 227 It’s an old friend
The merchant ship that can accommodate hundreds of people is gathered on the deck of all kinds of people.
Before Wen Wan went to the deck, the guide gave the three of them a mask. "Forgive me, guests, this auction has a great relationship. Wearing a mask is the best choice for you or other customers."
Wen Wan's point, I don't deny it.
The precious circle of the imperial capital is so big. People like Anding will probably be recognized as soon as they appear.
Where are mixed together, exposing your identity will definitely do more harm than good.
So they took the mask and put it on one after another.
Wenwan got a red fox mask, which matched her clothes very much. After putting on the mask, her appearance was covered, revealing only a pair of watery eyes.
When King Anding got a gray wolf mask, while his guard got a silver wolf mask.
This time, King Anding only brought a personal guard, a tall young man. Wen Wan had seen the ranking and looked familiar, but she didn't know his name.
King Anding avoided the person leading the way forward to introduce Wen Wan, saying that the guard's name was A Shao, and then reminded: "Since she wants to disguise herself as his maid, then Don’t even know your own people.”
Wen Wan responded quickly and said, “I understand.”
The people on the deck were in groups of three or five, and few were left alone.
Since most of the people who came to Dudijing with buyers' power could not take risks alone. King Anding brought two people on the boat, which was already considered to be a small number of people.
As soon as the three of them appeared, the people around them looked over vigilantly, but soon looked away.
A heavy horn sounded, and the merchant ship pulled his anchor and set off.
Wen Wan shook for a while, and then grabbed the guardrail to stabilize her body.
She asked in a deep voice: "Prince, where does this river lead to?"
King Anding glanced at the direction of the merchant ship's journey and replied indifferently: "In another half an hour, you should be at the largest lake from the imperial capital, Qimao Lake."
This Qimao Lake is gentle. I have heard that the water surface is not only wide, but more importantly, it is close to the most famous cave area in Dijing.
Cave?
Wen Wan frowned and had a guess in her heart.
She took out a small porcelain bottle from her arms and handed it to King Anding.
"Prince, this porcelain bottle contains fluorite powder. If you want to enter the cave later, take this with you. If we get separated in the dark, remember to sprinkle some fluorite powder along the way."
Anding Wang Yi Curious, he opened the porcelain bottle and looked in, and said in surprise: "Can it shine? Fluorite powder? Where did you get this thing?"
He is also very knowledgeable, but I've never seen a powder that will shine.
Wen Wan, a concubine, actually knows more than him?
How could he have thought that Wen Wan had a postgraduate degree after all. Although she was not as good as the best, she was more than the best.
In ancient times, ten years of hard work were a high degree of education. In modern society, who didn’t go all the way from kindergarten? Even if there were nine years of compulsory education, wouldn’t it learn more than old friends?
Wenwan never arrogantly thinks that she is smarter than the ancients. She was just born in a peaceful era, enjoyed the dividends of the times, and had the opportunity to learn more than them. "Yeah." Wen Wan nodded and said in a gentle voice: "I took it from the general's treasury."
"Oh." King Anding nodded first, then was stunned again, " It's impossible. Yu'er has not been there for the past three years. I helped me to see the annual accounts of the General's treasury. I have never recorded any fluorite powder."
Hearing this, Wen Wan felt guilty He whispered, "There is no fluorite powder in the warehouse, but there is a night pearl."
King Anding was shocked, "Ye Mingzhu?"
He looked at the small porcelain bottle in his hand, and was still puzzled, "What is the relationship between Nighting Pearl and fluorite powder..." Halfway through his words, King Anding seemed to have guessed something .
But he couldn't believe this guess. The dignified prince almost stuttered when he spoke.
"You, don't tell me, what kind of fluorite powder is the powder ground from night pearls?"
Wen Wan coughed twice awkwardly, "It's all for everything. You see, it won't come in handy soon."
King Anding is a decisive person after all, even if this fact is difficult Accepted, he could still maintain his demeanor, but the guard A Shao on the side had a painful face.
Grind night pearls into powder to use?
Does she know how much silver a night pearl is worth?
The playboys in the imperial capital are much more subtle than the concubine in front of them.
After all, who can lose his family to this extent?
Wen Wan struggled with a strong desire to survive when she saw the expressions of the two.
She thought about it and asked for a more detailed sentence, "Actually, Ye Mingzhu has a nice name. To put it bluntly, it is just a rare mineral that can temporarily store light energy..."
Wen Wan's voice became smaller and smaller as King Anding and Ashao both had cold faces, looking like they couldn't listen at all.
No mistakes, one poem, one post, one content, one in 6, one book, one bar, one read!
Forget it.
It has come to this point, and it is useless to say more. Anyway, the prince can't do anything to her now.
Wang An Ding's fingers trembled slightly, and he solemnly put the small porcelain bottle into his arms.
He was in a very complicated mood at the moment, as if he hoped that the fluorescent stone could be used in a while. Things that could save lives were not measured by money.
But he hopes he won't use it for a while. After all, this thing is really expensive and it will be painful to use it.

After entering the lake, the merchant ship continued to move forward against the direction of the water flow.
A moment later, the merchant ship stopped at the foot of the mountain.
There is a very small dock here. After the crew got off the boat, they set up a floating ladder, and a man wearing a black bear mask called out a group of guests to get off the boat.
Wenwan and the other two walked in the middle of the team. I wonder if it was her illusion, but she always felt that there was a trace of vision following her behind her.
But whenever she turned around, she found nothing.
Wang King Anding stopped and looked at the cave in front of him, and couldn't help but sigh for a moment.
"You really got it right. They will take us into the cave."
Wang Wang glanced at Wen Wan and pulled the corner of his mouth, "Although he is a little bit boasting, he still has it. Some eyesight."
Smile and gentle, "It's just a little clever, not worth mentioning."
King Anding didn't say anything. With her identity, it was a great blessing to get him a comment of this level.

In the distance, the man wearing a hooded head and a white rabbit mask on his face kept his eyes on the petite woman in front of him.
His companion followed his gaze and asked in a low voice: "Master, but is there something wrong with that person?"
The man shook his head, his voice low, "No, I just feel...her figure looks very much like a person."
The person who made him miss him and dream about him but dared not get close to him.
The companion didn't understand what he meant, and then tentatively said, "Can she be that person?"
The man hesitated for a moment before saying, "It can't be her. Such a place It's so dangerous that that person wouldn't let her come here to take risks. Forget it, maybe he's seen the wrong person."
