Chapter 95 Sweet Potatoes
Wang Luxue blinked her beautiful big eyes, smiled and raised her head and said, "Yes!"

Yang Mu reached out and touched her head, and praised: "You're so smart!" He knew how to pretend to be dumb to avoid saying wrong things.

Wang Luxue shook her head triumphantly.

Wang Daru bowed deeply to Yang Mu, and said: "Young lady understands righteousness and is extremely smart, she should be a role model for my generation."

Yang Mu was a little embarrassed by the praise, and hurriedly greeted a few people to enter the shop.

In the current shop, most of the furniture has been built, and it has begun to take shape.

Wang Daru said: "Ms. Yang's cake making skills are superb, we all like to eat cakes made by Ms. Yang."

Yang Mudao: "It's just right, a batch of cakes just came out, do you want to try it?"

Wang Luxue said happily: "If you want it, that cake is the best!"

Yang Mu invited all three of them to the backyard.

As soon as he entered the yard, Wang Luxue saw Yang Shitou, who was learning how to climb a pillar with Qiuqiu, and said happily, "Shishitou!"

Yang Shitou almost fell off the pillar. After seeing that it was Wang Luxue who had played together in the cottage, he greeted happily, "Sweet potatoes, sweet potatoes!"

At that time Chunhua adopted Lu Xue, but Lu Xue didn't speak, so she didn't know her name.

Chunhua thought about it for a long time, but she didn't know what to name Lu Xue. Later, she saw that the little girl liked to eat sweet potatoes, so she simply named her "Sweet Potatoes".

But before the name could be changed, the bandits went down the mountain, and Chunhua and Lu Xue also separated.

When Wang Luxue heard the word "sweet potato", her face darkened instantly, and she protested loudly: "My name is Lu Xue, not sweet potato!"

Yang Shitou "ziliu" slid down the pillar, and "da da da" ran to Wang Luxue, a little confused why the sweet potato turned into Lu Xue.

Could that stone have another name?

Children are very forgetful, and Wang Luxue quickly forgot about "sweet potatoes" because she discovered Qiuqiu and Hei Daya.

So, the next moment the four little guys were playing together.

Zhu's sister-in-law mounted flowers on this cake and distributed it to everyone.

While eating the cake, Wang Daru talked about Lin Xiao asking him to write a plaque.

Yang Mu hurriedly looked for a pen and paper.

Wang Daru raised his sleeves, swiped his pen, and wrote the words "Wanxiangfang", and stamped his personal seal.

Su Jinyu watched from the sidelines, and said with a smile, "Teacher, these three words are worth a thousand gold."

He is not exaggerating. Wang Daru's handwriting has not been published for more than 20 years. Now, apart from Wang Daru's family, there are only a few authentic ones in the palace.

As soon as Yang Mu heard that it was worth a thousand gold, he immediately took good care of it. Even the craftsmen who carved the plaques came to the shop to carve them instead of sending the paper to the plaque shop.

Wang Daru and his party left after lunch. When they parted, Yang Shitou and Wang Luxue were reluctant to part with each other, causing the adults to look at each other and laugh.

……

At the same time, Fucheng, Wantong Bank.

Shopkeeper Lang finished sending off an official family member who had saved money, and was just about to drink tea when he saw three people stepping over the threshold and entering the shop. The leader was a handsome young man in a blue shirt.

Behind the young man, followed by two people.One is tall and big, like a giant; the other is wearing a bamboo hat, like a shadow.

The three of them were dressed in ordinary clothes, and some families could afford them.There is no need for him to receive customers of this level, so he sits down and drinks tea by himself.

A clerk went up to meet him and asked, "My lord, do you want to deposit money or withdraw money?"

Lu Shan said: "My son is looking for your shopkeeper Lang. If there is something, please let him take care of it."

In the bank, sometimes some gold and silver jewelry or decorations are accepted. This kind of thing needs to be verified by the shopkeeper or the imperial court.

Shopkeeper Lang drank two sips of tea unhurriedly, walked over slowly, and asked proudly, "I don't know what the young master is?"

The clothes of these three people probably wouldn't be able to produce anything of value.

Lin Xiao frowned, and then said lightly: "Golden Futu."

Shopkeeper Lang was stunned. Jinfutu was rarely displayed even in temples, and very few people came to sell it.

Therefore, the "Golden Pagoda" became the secret code of Dingguo's mansion.

Upon hearing this code, the secret posts of Duke Ding's Mansion knew that it must be the direct descendants of the Duke's Mansion.

The shopkeeper's face instantly became warm and flattering, and he nodded and bowed and asked Lin Xiao and the three to go upstairs for a private talk.

In the private room on the second floor, shopkeeper Lang invited Lin Xiao to sit down and poured tea for him himself.

The shopkeeper Lang was pouring tea, while secretly looking at him, he thought to himself, seeing that this young man looks so handsome, could it be some prince from the palace who came here?

Lu Shan looked at Shopkeeper Lang's cautious look, and reminded: "This is the son of the world."

Shopkeeper Lang almost missed the teapot in his hand, knelt on the ground and kowtowed with a "plop", and said, "Little Lang Shizhong has seen the son!"

Lin Xiao took a sip of tea slowly, raised his eyebrows and said, "Every time Shopkeeper Lang asks customers, is he always this untactful?"

Shopkeeper Lang's mind froze for a moment before he remembered how he had just talked to Shi Ziye.

"I don't know what the son is?"

what? !

The shopkeeper Lang wanted to slap himself to death. What he said, the son would not kill himself in a fit of anger, would he?

He kowtowed his head heavily, and said in horror: "My son, calm down!"

Lin Xiao took another sip of tea and said slowly, "Get up, let's get down to business."

Shopkeeper Lang almost thought that he had heard it wrong, saying that Master Shizi was a murderer in the army, why did he let him go so easily?

Lin Xiao watched Shopkeeper Lang stand up tremblingly, and then asked: "Did you receive the letter I sent you last time?"

Only then did Shopkeeper Lang realize that the letter he received earlier was actually written by Lin Xiao himself.He just said, why is his tone so strong.

He wiped the cold sweat from his brow, and said: "I have found out what my son told me. On the twenty-eighth day of the first lunar month, no one in our prefecture city had ever left the city. If there are people who can fight outside the city, , then there are only two possibilities: one is the manpower of Kangyuan stationed outside the city; the other is the manpower from other state capitals."

In the first month of the lunar year, Lin Xiao came to Jizhou Mansion to look for the famous doctor Liu Yishou to buy the antidote for Gu worms. Unexpectedly, he was intercepted and killed. Among them was a woman from Miaojiang who whispered something to him.

Under the control of the Miao Jiang woman, Lin Xiao felt the awakening of the Gu worms in his blood.

Once this kind of Gu worm is awakened, it will swim to the heart along the blood flow and eat the heart.

In an emergency, Lin Xiao took the medicine to understand Gu.

This kind of drug has a disadvantage, that is, it will make the person who takes it lose power and consume a lot of physical strength until fainting.

The fainting time is usually about one month, and the shortest time for losing power is one year.

Lin Xiao was afraid that after he fainted, the guards would lose sight of the other, so he rode away alone, leaving behind Lu Shan and Mu Chen.

After Lin Xiao escaped from the encirclement, he was afraid that the opponent would find him according to the horse's hoof prints, so he rode on a horse. After half a day, he fainted in the grove under the influence of the medicine.

Lin Xiao had a tacit understanding with Lu Shan and Mu Chen. He walked towards the south and fainted in the dense jungle. He just had to wait for Lu Shan and Mu Chen to find him.

Never thought that he would be picked up by Wu Dawan.

Lin Xiao remembered that those men in black who intercepted and killed him seemed to be dead soldiers who had taken drugs, and the martial arts routines they used were very similar to the killers in Dingwangfu.

That's why Lin Xiao ordered Shopkeeper Lang to investigate the matter.

Prince Ding's Mansion has business and manpower in every big town. There are several hidden stakes in the mansion city. On the day Lin Xiao fainted, he didn't leave the city. The only person who can do anything near Baiyun County is the manpower of Kang Yuan outside the city.

As for people from other state capitals... Lin Xiao thinks it is basically impossible.

Not to mention that these manpower are supervised by each other, it is said that the manpower of the foreign state capital will not be as familiar with the terrain as the man who intercepted him.

Lin Xiao glanced at Shopkeeper Lang indifferently, and said, "Kang Yuan, there is no need to keep it."

Shopkeeper Lang subconsciously asked: "The meaning of not staying is..."
