Chapter 379

The secret guards sent by Lu Chengan hurried to Anxi.

After returning to the mansion and meditating for a while, Cheng Engong got up and ordered his servants to prepare a carriage, and waited on the only way for Shangshu from the Ministry of Industry to return to his mansion.

The Shangshu of the Ministry of Industry's surname is Zhao and his name is Tianyu. Hearing his name, he gives people the feeling of a young man who is breezy and breezy.

But in fact, he is a middle-aged fat man with a black and chubby face.

Cheng Engong picked the right time, and after a short wait, the carriage of Minister of the Ministry of Industry came out of the compound of the Ministry of Industry.

Minister of the Ministry of Industry heard the report from his servants that it was Duke Cheng's carriage passing by, so he hurriedly got out of the carriage and saluted: "Mr. Cheng."

Cheng Engong opened the curtain as if passing by casually: "Zhao Shangshu."

"I don't know where Zhao Shangshu is going?"

Zhao Shangshu quickly showed a simple and honest smile: "Xiaguan plans to go to the antique street over there to have a look."

"I've heard that Zhao Shangshu has such a hobby. I'm going to have a look today too. Why don't we come together to find a treasure?"

Cheng Engong immediately showed an old fox's smile and opened his mouth to invite.

Upon hearing this, Zhao Shangshu quickly nodded and said yes.

Cheng Engong invited Zhao Shangshu to his carriage and poured him a cup of tea.

Zhao Shangshu was quite flattered, he quickly took the bowl of warm tea, and thanked Cheng Engong.

"Why is Zhao Shangshu so polite? You and I are officials in the same dynasty, so why should you care about these details."

"Cheng Engong is right, I am too rigid about details"

Zhao Shangshu immediately agreed and took a sip of tea.

"I wonder if there is anything special to pay attention to when looking at antiques?" Cheng Engong also took a sip of tea and asked.

"This antique, the water inside is very deep." Zhao Shangshu said to Cheng Engong with a meaningful smile,
Cheng Engong raised his eyebrows with interest: "Oh? I would like to hear more about it."

But Zhao Shangshu shook his head: "Cheng Engong, I really don't want to whet your appetite. I don't need to tell you specific things. I can't say one, two, three."

Cheng Engong nodded with a smile, but thought in his heart that this is really an old fox who seems to be honest and honest, but actually has deep thoughts.

It belongs to the kind that does not see the rabbit and does not scatter the eagle.

Antique Street is very quiet, unlike other streets full of yelling and selling.

Zhao Shangshu signaled the coachman to stop the carriage at the intersection, got out of the carriage with Cheng Engong, and walked slowly.

"Cheng Engong, look at this small pot. The clay body on the outside is made of purple sand, and the name of the former pot maker is engraved on it, but if you look inside, the mud body at the corner is not the same as the purple sand. .”

As he spoke, he pointed the spout of the pot at the two of them and pointed it out to Cheng Engong.

As soon as the waiter at the store heard this, he immediately lowered his voice with a bitter face and said, "My lord, if you want to see the real thing, please come inside."

Zhao Shangshu then invited Cheng Engong to go into the shop: "Please."

The waiter at the shop saw the two people walking into the shop, and hurriedly gestured to the waiter at the door, indicating that this is a distinguished guest who cannot be offended.

I can hear that sentence Cheng Engong clearly and clearly.

The receptionist at the door saw his gesture, and immediately sang in harmony: "The distinguished guest has arrived!"

The shopkeeper hurriedly greeted him personally.

On weekdays, there were always guests who sang harmony, but today they said that distinguished guests had arrived. This is definitely not something a small shop can afford.

Speaking of these, Zhao Shangshu did it on purpose.

He also wanted to have a good relationship with Cheng Engong, so he deliberately let Xiaoer know a little bit, hoping that he could pick out a few good ones and close the relationship with Cheng Engong.

Fortunately, the waiter lived up to his high expectations.

Cheng Engong is also an old fritter for many years, so naturally he can't fail to see the way, even the very first sentence of Cheng Engong, he can clearly hear it.

"Zhao Shangshu, you really have a lot of skills." Cheng Engong made a pun.

Zhao Shang still had a simple and honest smile in his writing: "It's just too much, it's nothing."

The shopkeeper pointed to the blue-and-white opera figure pen holder and the green-glazed beauty Dendrobium on the shelf and said, "Both of you, this is a real good product at a fair price. Would you like to show it to the two of you?"

Zhao Shangshu nodded: "Then take it over and have a look."

The shopkeeper hurriedly stepped on the chair, gently took down the two vases, and put them on the table.

He handed over two more white gloves: "You two, put them on."

After that, he stood in the corner of the room without saying a word.

Cheng Engong put on his gloves, picked up the beautiful Dendrobium, and looked at it carefully, but he didn't see anything wrong, so he had to look at Zhao Shangshu.

Zhao Shangshu took the beautiful dendrobium with a smile, looked at it carefully for a while, and then said: "Cheng Engong, this beautiful dendrobium was indeed made by the previous dynasty, and what the shopkeeper said is true."

Cheng Engong nodded: "Shopkeeper, how much is this beauty?"

The shopkeeper hurriedly bowed and made an offer: "Don't dare to lie to the distinguished guest, this beauty costs 200 taels of silver."

A look of surprise appeared on Cheng Engong's face, and then he smiled wryly: "Zhao Shangshu, this antique is really not something we can afford."

When Zhao Shangshu heard the words, there was no lack of surprise on his face: "Cheng Engong also has times when he is shy?"

Cheng Engong shook his head, and glanced at the shopkeeper standing beside him.

The shopkeeper withdrew immediately.

"To tell the truth, Zhao Shangshu said that when the late emperor was here, my life in Cheng'en Gong's mansion was still very easy, but since the late emperor left, our family's salary has been unable to come down. No, the secret agent I sent out Wei is nowhere to be seen, and the pensions paid to their families are all taken from my private treasury, if I knew this would happen, why would I bother to take two lives and still have a lot of money?"

Cheng Engong said, while acting sad, anyone who saw it would feel that Cheng Engong was extremely pitiful.

"Forget it, why did I talk to you about this?"

Cheng Engong wiped away his bitter tears and turned his head away, cursing secretly in his heart.

Lu Chengan is such a brat, I lost all face today!

If Zhao Shangshu didn't believe what Cheng Engong said before, then the last bitter tears finally made him half believe it.

Cheng Engong, such a refined and proud person, if he hadn't encountered a big problem, how could he cry?

However, why did they find themselves?
Especially after Anxi's incident happened, he suddenly found himself.

"Zhao Shangshu, I'm laughing." Cheng Engong quickly recovered, straightened his clothes, except for the reddish corners of his eyes, there was no sign of crying.

"I just wanted to go out for a walk, to relax, and I met Zhao Shangshu unexpectedly. It can be considered that we are destined."

Cheng Engong got up and cupped his hands towards Zhao Shangshu: "I hope Zhao Shangshu will keep his mouth shut about today's matter, otherwise, I will really lose my old face."

After saying this, he turned and left.

Only Zhao Shangshu was left sitting there, silent.

 One more.Half blood revived, continue to code.
