Red makeup Chitose

Chapter 54 Trading
Are you tired?Are you afraid?Regret?
Jin Ming asked herself secretly, she didn't dare to say that she "never" was tired, afraid, or regretful.

But she could feel the heart in her chest, after being "tired, afraid, or regretful", it was still beating hot and powerful.

This is her invisible killing knife.

People don't die, knives are not cold, her sharp edge is always sharp, pointing to the front of Luozi Wuhui.

After Jin Mingwei left in the Quick Green Pavilion, there was a small disturbance.

The sewer in the hot water room was blocked. It is said that someone threw a small dish into it. The servants and waiters all scolded angrily, who is so immoral.

The hot water room flooded Jinshan, and the restaurant was in chaos. The young ladies nodded and bowed their heads to apologize. Please leave the distinguished guests tonight temporarily. The handyman who came to clear the water is rushing here. It's not good.

Xiao Zi was furious at first, and wanted to settle accounts with that maidservant, but her eyes were full of chaotic crowds, and she wanted to ask the steward to ask, but the steward was too busy to evacuate the distinguished guests and maintain order in the hall, and had no time to care about any maidservants.

"Who is so immoral... Huh?" Xiao Zi was about to scold, but the words froze, and he caught a few pieces of pigskin on the ground out of the corner of his eye, which seemed to be dropped out by the maid.

He picked up the pigskin and looked at it for a long time, the bottom of his eyes became darker inch by inch, and there was no trace of the winking eyes just now.

Tonight's Quick Green Pavilion was brightly lit, noisy and chaotic, so no one noticed when a certain figure walked out from the back door.

He got on his horse and galloped away, disappearing into the beautiful night of Qinhuai. Two hours later, he stopped in front of a certain house, got off his horse and walked in.

No one stopped him along the way, the house was full of fragrant grasses and trees, and the shadow of the moon supported the sparse, so quiet that only the cranes raised in the garden were flapping their wings.

But if you are sharp-eyed, you can find countless pairs of eyes and countless unsheathed daggers locked on him in the night. The house is actually densely packed with secret whistles, making everyone who comes in feel like they have entered hell.

He walked through the night without lighting up or stopping, and finally entered a bedroom and knelt behind the red pearl curtain.

"Master, your guess is correct. Tao Jianxian has long colluded with Biandu officials and tried his best to be transferred to Biandu. The group of people who sued the imperial court is his name certificate. There are also Tao Jianxian and Huo Ru Qin met, and let Huo Ruqin eavesdrop on the secrets of Biandu's officialdom, which is probably a kind of pressure: Since you know our secret, you can't walk out of this door cleanly today... But later, because of the sewer It was blocked, and there was a commotion in the hall, and the subordinates couldn't hear what they said."

The red curtain was parted, and a hookah pipe with an emerald mouth protruded from it.

He proficiently found shredded tobacco and firecrackers from somewhere in the dormitory, raised two slender fingertips, twisted the filaments, installed the hookah pipe, and leaned forward to light the fire. His black hair hung down and suddenly lit up. In the firelight, his black jewel-like cold eyes brushed past.

The hookah pipe was stretched in, and a satisfied sigh came from the red curtain: "Xiao Zi, as expected, you are the only one who understands this, and I love you the most."

"Master's praise, it's just Xiao Zi who likes it." Xiao Zi took a few steps back and knelt respectfully.

"Anyone who has been a waitress, most likely cannot do without this tube..." The voice in the curtain was faint, scattered in the smoke that floated out.

"Master, the previous things are over." Xiao Zi was worried, and said lightly, "Dare to ask why, disturbing the master's mood? This subordinate is willing to share the master's worries."

The master in the curtain chuckled: "Tao Jianxian is going to make a big deal, it's difficult, and Huo Ruqin? I guess it's such a big deal, Tao Jianxian needs Yuwenquan's help, so I ask Huo Ruqin to meet and discuss the terms of the transaction."

Xiao Zi thought for a while: "A deal? What Yu Wenquan wants most now is the life of the Jin family. It's just that the poisoning plan failed last time. I don't know if Yu Wenquan and Tao Jianxian cooperate this time, what chances of winning are there?" .”

The few pieces of pigskin flashed through his mind, but he hesitated a few times, and did not say what he suspected of seeing Jin.

The rule in the officialdom: The news reported to the master can only be confirmed.

Because if it's suspected, you won't check it out before you come back?Otherwise, what are you hired for?

The master in the curtain didn't notice his thoughts, and said with a smile: "You don't know that last time A Guan brought Yu Wenquan and presented me with gold and jade? It's A Guan who asked me to support him! I don't know that A Guan came up What's wrong with Yu Wenquan, I guess if he fails again this time, I should return the favor of Jin Yuyu and save Yu Wenquan's life."

Xiao Zi glanced at the Pearl Red Curtain, thoughtful: "Master, actually why didn't you take action? You just asked Habayashi Wei to monitor officials at all levels and report to you. Since you want Jin's life, if you Isn't it a very simple thing to make a move? Why do you hand it over to the prime minister, and the prime minister then hand it over to Yu Wenquan?

The curtain was opened, revealing a pair of slanted phoenix eyes that seemed to be smiling but not smiling. In the smoke from the hookah pipe, there were waves that were more rippling than a woman: "Xiao Zi, didn't you see that not only me, but even Ah Guan is just talking to you?" To Yu Wenquan, did you not make a move yourself?"

"Because the prime minister is busy?" Xiao Zi replied subconsciously.

The phoenix eyes were raised, and the smile was like the peach blossoms of Sanchun. The man said: "Because the current Jin family is not worthy. We have a great status. Once we make a move, everyone knows that the three major camps in Jiangdong must first Face to face. Just like the Kuailv Pavilion, what level of guest officials should be matched with what level of receptionists, this is also a tacit understanding between the pros and cons of the officialdom. Of course, if the Jin family can go up one level at a time, we will one day, Will meet her on a narrow road."

Xiao Zi was stunned.

I remembered that when I was still an apprentice in Habayashi Guards, I went to the Prime Minister’s Mansion to do errands. The servant who swept the yard came out to receive him. The butler, who has become a first-class guard, is the prime minister's confidant.

It cannot be said that it is the prime minister who watches people order dishes, but it can only be said that this is an official rule.

"Let's leave it at that for the Quick Green Pavilion. The most important thing now is the Book of Yingtian. Where has the Book of Heaven gone?" the man asked seriously.

"It's almost Biandu." Xiaozi replied respectfully.

The man sighed, and his phoenix eyes showed a rare tiredness: "Biandu has Jinling Wei family, and it must be a big deal. The next ghosts and snake gods from all walks of life will probably gather in Biandu..."

The smoke from the hookah pipe is like mist, the sound of gurgling water and the sound of jade leaks are flowing in the night, and the moon is in the middle of the sky, and it is already the third quarter of the ugly hour.

Huo Ruqin came out of the Quick Green Hall, and a carriage waited for her for a long time in the dark.

She got into the carriage, nodded to Tao Jianxian who came out to see her off, then lowered the curtain, and drove into the darkness, when the carriage stopped again, it was a house, she came to the study, saw this and was still playing chess people.
