I Became an Anonymous Boss
Page 79
After Tan Taizhong heard the news, he immediately returned to Jinling from the imperial capital, running all the way, and hardly stopped for three days and three nights except for changing horses and taking a short rest.
Unexpectedly, they were ambushed. The team that came should have more guards and entourages, but after being attacked, the crowd dispersed, and it is unknown how many survived.
Now Tantaizhong is unconscious. Although the other elders have detoxified, but too many people died, it is inevitable that people's hearts will be distracted. Many people can't accept the facts and are depressed. In the end, only Tantai Ziyue and Han can stand up to control the situation and block the news. owl.
After feeling the pulse, Steward Song said that this kind of injury can no longer be cured by ordinary medical skills, and it needs elixir.
He couldn't tell exactly what kind of elixir it was. A scholar's body cannot be replenished, so not all powerful medicines can be taken. Otherwise, it would be a trivial matter to make up the nosebleed, but it would be a big deal to cough up blood and die suddenly.
The best solution is to buy the panacea from Longhushan, a professional counterpart. With the background of a thousand-year-old family, you can afford it.
Tantai Ziyue looked at her father's somewhat unfamiliar face, and said nothing for a long time, finally sighed and told the maids to take good care of him.
Han Xiao waited outside the door and asked, "What's the matter?"
"Song Steward said that he needed the elixir. Now let people go to Longhu Mountain to get the elixir. It will take at least fifteen days for them to come and go. It will be faster for the other party to deliver it, but it will take at least seven days." Tantai Ziyue said: " The letter has been sent out, there are friends of the elders in Longhu Mountain, but I am afraid that it will be too late, my father is too seriously injured..."
"It's the first time I've seen my elder brother hurt like this." Han Xiao's steady tone concealed coldness and murderous intent. He and Tantaizhong are close friends, otherwise he wouldn't be able to become the guest of the Tantai family and Tantaizhong. Tai Ziyue's adoptive father.
"Father, don't be impulsive."
"I understand that my elder brother is a third-rank official. He is a Confucian in the realm of destiny. He has both the luck of the court and the righteousness. He shouldn't be hit hard. If I rush in, I will only end up in a worse end." Han Xiao rubbed his fingertips, fingers It was as if two pieces of steel rubbed against each other to make a sound of gold and iron: "I will hold back, at least I won't move around now... Besides, I don't have any clues, it's useless to bump into it like a headless chicken..."
As he said that, he also fell silent, and there were many changes one after another. He was a fourth-level heaven warrior, but he felt powerless.
This doesn't even have anything to do with force, force can defeat cleverness.
But if you don't even know where the enemy is, where can this power be used?
Tantai Ziyue said at this time: "I'll go see the young master again."
Han Xiao thought of that young man, and it's only been a day, do you want to ask him to do it again?
Boss Han is noncommittal, he knows that the other party may really have a way to crack it, and maybe he can find out some terrible truth.
But he still asked: "If there are too many favors owed, how can I pay them back in the future?"
Tantai Ziyue was silent for a long time, she smiled wryly: "I don't know... maybe, Qi Xia doesn't know either."

Chapter 90 Reading comprehension full score answer sheet
In Yanyun Mansion, Yan Qixia was not in a good mood, she didn't sleep well last night, a group of assassins flew around the walls, scurrying around like flies.
She wiped her gut dagger, and said absently, "Why do you have time to come to my place?"
Looking sideways, Tantai Ziyue was sitting on the other side, she also said bluntly: "I'm here to see the young master."
"I haven't seen you for a few days, but you are more straightforward." Yan Qixia looked away: "You look like a fox."
"I'm looking for a young master for business." Tantai Ziyue said seriously: "Qi Xia, I have absolutely no..."
"You said that, I don't believe it, the cheapest thing is to promise." Yan Qixia wiped the edge of the dagger: "It's no better than always coming to Yanyun Mansion when you look for the young master, and I'm not watching the young master [-] hours a day."
"Don't you know?"
"I don't know." Yan Qixia asked: "Taohong, do you know where the young master is?"
"The young master went out earlier, I have a question, but the young master smiled and walked away without answering." Tao Hong thought for a while, and continued: "You look very happy, it seems that something good happened, I also specially changed into new clothes, and my steps are much lighter."
Tantai Ziyue suddenly began to think differently, the young master felt happy, could it be...
Yan Qixia said: "Maybe it's to go to an appointment."
Tao Hong was taken aback: "Going to the appointment? I'll go ask..."
"No need." Tao Hong turned around and met Lan Xiangxue, she said: "My lord should have gone to the Tianxiang Pavilion, last night a servant from the Tantai family brought it..."
"Wait?" Tantai Ziyue immediately interrupted: "The servants of the Tantai family went to find the young master? But I haven't heard of it!"
"Really?" Lan Xiangxue asked suspiciously: "The servant left after delivering the gift box to the young master. It was not sent by Tantai, so why?"
Tantai Ziyue didn't know what was going on, it was impossible for anyone to go out last night, and she didn't know where Bai Taki lived.
At this time Yan Qixia asked calmly: "Where did you go to the Tianxiang Pavilion?"
Lan Xiangxue nodded and replied: "In the box last night, there was a paper coupon for Tianxiang Pavilion."
Yan Qixia asked again: "Is he wearing a knife?"
Tao Hong nodded immediately: "Blue Butterfly Swords, I saw it."
Yan Qixia said indifferently: "It seems that he really went to the appointment, and he doesn't want us to interfere, so let him do as he likes, Young Master is already prepared."
Lan Xiangxue was puzzled, "How to say?"
Yan Qixia explained: "Tianxiang Pavilion is not allowed to enter with weapons."
Tao Hong looked at the sky and then at the floor: "Miss, you are not allowed to carry weapons, what's the matter?"
Yan Qixia asked: "When an ordinary person goes to an appointment, will he bring a weapon to the appointment?"
Lan Xiangxue replied: "No, unless there is fear, for self-defense, or for warning."
Tantai Ziyue said: "But Tianxiang Pavilion is not allowed to carry weapons, it is the same with or without weapons, it is a relatively peaceful environment for conversation."
Yan Qixia said: "So it seems superfluous... But is it really so? Since weapons can't deter opponents, why do they need to carry weapons? It's very simple, because besides this, he also needs this weapon."
Tantai Ziyue came to a sudden: "Who will be the person who will go to the appointment and talk with you today?"
Tao Hong also understood: "Could it be a stakeholder related to the assassin?"
All three women entered a special mode of thinking and began to figure out the meaning behind the information.
Only Lan Xiangxue has not yet entered the thinking mode of others. She doesn't like to guess wildly: "I think... maybe you are thinking too much, maybe the young master just went to the Tianxiang Pavilion to watch the sword dance? Yesterday the young master had a sword dance. He looks very interested, but my sword dance is not good enough, and the weapons I carry are only for self-defense, and there is no special purpose."
Tantai Ziyue was noncommittal, she saw with her own eyes how Bai Taki cracked the poisoning case and found out the shady behind the scenes, she had already deeply admired his wisdom in her heart, Lan Xiangxue's words were not worth paying attention to.
Just as Xiao Taohong was about to refute, Yan Qixia spoke up first: "Your idea is right, under normal circumstances, everyone would think so, but this is not an ordinary situation, there are assassins in the front, and demons in the back, how big does it have to be?" Is it because of my heart that I dare to go out for a stroll, because I have a pair of famous knives in my hand?"
The rich old lady stroked the dagger: "Besides, the young master has lived in Jinling for nearly half a year. No one in Jinling knows the heavenly fragrances and pavilions, but the young master rarely mentioned it in the past, and it is the first time to go there until today. Interested, why not go to see it sooner or later? Why is it now?"
Lan Xiangxue thought for a while: "Maybe it's because of the tickets?"
"The ticket for the elegant seat is only ten taels, and the ticket for the private room is only twenty taels." Yan Qixia laughed, "Is it because you can't afford it?"
She asked herself and answered: "Of course not. The reason why I went to Tianxiang Pavilion is because this ticket is actually an invitation letter, and the other item in the wooden box is a token for the meeting."
Lan Xiangxue was still puzzled: "But isn't this ticket a gift from the Tantai family?"
"This is not a gift from my family." Tantai Ziyue emphasized: "Yesterday, the door of Tantai's house was locked and no one came in or out."
After a short pause, Lan Xiangxue asked, "But why did you lie to me, Young Master?"
Yan Qixia continued patiently and persuasively: "Yesterday, during the whole day, Young Master did not leave Yanyun Mansion. He rarely stays here for a long time, and he will not stay here overnight. Tao Hong can tell that Young Master is very boring, but he did not leave. Yanyun Mansion half a step, why do you think this is?"
Lan Xiangxue said: "Because I asked you to teach me swordsmanship?"
"Did he teach you?" Yan Qixia joked.
Lan Xiangxue remained silent, she had heard a lot of knowledge yesterday, but she didn't have sword skills.
"Sir, you don't know how to teach swordsmanship. If you want to learn it, you can only learn it by yourself. Otherwise, you will be partial. Fengli will be unhappy if you know it." The beauty put the dagger in her cuff, and raised her pale index and middle fingers: " Returning to the original question, the young master did not move during the day yesterday, but chose to go out at night when it was more dangerous. First, he knew there would be assassins, so he stayed in Yanyun Mansion to wait for work, and second, he was waiting for something."
"You mean... the box?" Lan Xiangxue frowned slightly: "But the young master said that he is a servant of the Tantai family..."
"Have you seen it?" Yan Qixia asked in an unhurried manner.
"I didn't see it, the young master said so." Lan Xiangxue shook her head.
"Is what he said must be correct? The young master is not a saint, he will deceive people."
Lan Xiangxue had no way to refute, so she asked again: "Why?"
Yan Qixia half-closed her eyes, and instead of taking the initiative to answer, she threw the question back: "No one knows how he got the box, but the ticket is real, maybe he bought it himself, or it was sent by someone else ...But it must not be the Tantai family, otherwise the lie will be exposed immediately if you ask the person a little bit, so why did he tell such a lie that can be easily debunked?"
Lan Xiangxue was unresponsive for a long time, and Xiao Taohong also showed the expression of an elementary school student reading a college entrance examination question.
Only Tantai Ziyue's complexion changed, she said her farewell, and left Yanyun Mansion directly.
Yan Qixia said: "Look, Tantai Ziyue has already reacted, and you guys haven't realized it yet? This is obviously a reminder that the target he is going to meet this time must be related to the Tantai family."
Lan Xiangxue frowned and thought about it, but she still couldn't accept it in her heart: "You want to say that the young master has predicted it?"
"Otherwise?" Yan Qixia narrowed her eyes: "If the young master said one more word before leaving, the result would be different... If he told Xiao Taohong his whereabouts before leaving, we don't have to ask you, then Nothing that has just been said will be known."
"He could have told Xiao Taohong his whereabouts, but he didn't. Then we can only ask others, and the only one who knows his whereabouts is you. If you ask, you will know what he said to you last night. As long as Tantai Ziyue If I was there, this lie would be easily exposed, and I would guess from various signs that he was going to the appointment, so we will know... the appointment in the Tianxiang Pavilion must be related to demon transformation."
Lan Xiangxue was silent for a long time, it was a bit difficult for her to associate the gentle young man with the image of a wise man who could not miss anything.
She thought she knew the young master a little bit, but she still didn't know anything.
The mysterious and unpredictable origin and treacherous and changeable wisdom add to the fog.
Such a person is no longer powerful, but terrifying.
Yan Qixia asked softly: "Do you feel terrible?"
