Reborn, I was pursued by the Prince of the Broken Sleeves

"What about the reward?" she asked. "Raise the reward to 20,000 taels. Perhaps someone will take the risk and respond."

Xie Yousheng shook his head. "The security in the capital is very tight. They value their lives and are unwilling to intervene in matters that are not even considered serious."

This is how to do?

Su Manman frowned slightly, supporting herself on the table with one hand and rubbing her temple. "I need the Ice Stone as quickly as possible, no matter what method I use, no matter how much it costs. If twenty thousand taels of silver isn't enough, then thirty thousand taels of silver..."

"Actually..." Xie Yousheng thought about it and shut up again.

The eldest princess is not in the palace all year round. Only His Royal Highness Prince Qi has a close relationship with this eldest sister and occasionally stays with her.

If you want a piece of ice stone and can't ask the princess for it, asking His Royal Highness the Prince will be equally effective.

Can……

Su Yu had just arrived, so how could she be so familiar with Qi Wang Ye Mo that she could ask him to give up a piece of ice stone.

There is no point in saying more.

"Don't worry, Su Yu, I will do my best."

"I also want to ask you about someone. Is there a man here with a black mole at the corner of his mouth who is good at making porcelain?"

"Yes, his name is Wang Er, and he's a kiln worker. He made all the bricks and tiles needed for the auction house's corridor construction. After that, he stayed and was responsible for cleaning and repairing the backyard walls and other areas."

"But he said something happened at home last night and left overnight."

"Can you find him?"

"can."

"Find him as soon as possible. I want to ask him some questions."

"no problem."

Xie Yousheng was always like this, and he never asked her why.

Whatever she needed, he would do his best to do it.

She never had to explain the reasons to him.

She liked this very much.

The two chatted for a while and then Su Manman said goodbye.

"If I get the news, how can I find you?"

They met in Jiangyang. She said that she was from the capital and came to Jiangyang to eat vegetarian food and chant Buddhist scriptures to pray for her parents.

He was a smart man and guessed some of her secrets, but he never asked any questions.

It is not easy for a woman to travel the world, so she often disguises herself as a young man. She said, "Beauty is like jade, call me Su Yu."

From then on, in front of him, she was Su Yu.

"Su Manman, the Minister of Rites." This was the first time she told him her true identity.

Xie Yousheng was stunned, his expression froze, his lips trembling, not knowing what to say.

"Brother Jie, we once said that regardless of the past, in front of you, I am just Su Yu."

"Okay, Su Yu." Xie Yousheng said solemnly, "I will pass the news to the Su Mansion."

"Her name is Qingluan. From now on, I will let her come when you and I pass on the news."

"it is good."

Xie Yousheng led the two people out of the private room and walked along the corridor. He saw two people coming towards him from afar.

The man in front was wearing a navy blue robe, his black hair tied casually behind his head with a jade belt. The fanged and green ghost mask on his face obscured his features, but it could not hide the kingly aura he exuded.

Pray for the king to have night ink.

They had just dealt with each other in Cuixiangyuan five days ago and were deeply impressed.

Even though he was wearing a mask, the pressure he emanated from his body gave her goose bumps every time she thought of him.

Oops!

What should she do if he recognized her?

After all, it was somewhat inappropriate for the noble ladies from the capital to appear on this occasion.

Su Manman was overwhelmed and hid behind Jie Yousheng, trying to minimize her presence.

Her bewilderment caught Xie Yousheng's attention, "Please move over there."

He led them to the right, turned into a side door, and hid their whereabouts.

When Ye Mo walked over, he stopped at the place where she had stopped before and paused for a while.

Zhuifeng asked, "Your Highness, what's wrong?"

"nothing!"

In the Bi Cang Auction House, many people collect and sell items and do not want others to know about them, so everyone who enters the house needs to wear a mask.

However, even if someone you know well is wearing a mask, they can still be easily recognized.

The man looked familiar, but Jie Yousheng was blocking his way behind him and the light was dim, so he couldn't see clearly.

Ye Mo thought for a moment and continued walking forward.

Only when the figure disappeared at the end of the corridor did Su Manman dare to take a deep breath.

Every time she saw him, she became very nervous.

Xie Yousheng explained to himself, "The dagger on the bounty list is the one who put the bounty on him."

It’s him, Qi Wang Ye Mo.

Su Manman was startled and felt a little unsteady on her feet.

That dagger was actually his favorite thing.

Could it be him?

He tried hard to match the guy in the psychedelic forest with the person in front of him...

impossible!

That man had a disfigured face, a hoarse voice, a broken leg, and was blind. How could he be compared with the handsome Ye Mo in front of him?

Besides, she remembered clearly that the guy said he picked up the dagger.

He gave it away so casually, and why would he offer a huge reward knowing that he had given it away?

This doesn't make sense.

So, it must be Youyou who picked up Ye Mo's dagger.

Perhaps there was a conflict between the two during the "picking up" process.

Su Manman was shocked again.

It would be good if there was friendship between the two of them, but what if they were enemies?

Such a precious dagger has become a hot potato at this moment.

I can't bear to throw it away.

If you sell it, you will definitely get into trouble.

She didn't want to try what it would feel like to have the cold-faced King of Hell, Qi Wang Ye Mo, come to her house and get entangled with her.

Su Manman felt a chill in her heart and urged Qingluan to leave this place of trouble quickly.

"Su Yu," Xie Yousheng called out, "I've booked a private room in Tingyue Tower. If you need anything in the future, you can find me there or leave a message."

"it is good."

The two of them went out onto the street, turned a few corners, and when they found no one behind them, they relaxed and went shopping leisurely.

Inside the Bi Cang Auction, Ye Mo stared at Bing Han Shi, who was at the top of the bounty list, with a heavy look in his eyes: "Any news about Xuan Yue?"

Xie Yousheng bowed and said, "No."

It is not easy for a person with no status or background to open an auction house that no one dares to mess with in the capital where the powerful and wealthy are concentrated.

Jie Yousheng must take advantage of the situation.

There were many powerful people in the capital, and he chose His Royal Highness Prince Qi.

Thanks to his appreciation and support, the Bi Cang Auction House has become more and more prosperous.

At the same time, he also became the eyes and ears of His Royal Highness Prince Qi, obeying his orders and doing things for him.

"Is there anyone offering a reward for the Ice Stone?" Ye Mo asked again.

"Yes, as Your Highness has seen, the reward is 20,000 taels, one foot square." He explained truthfully, not forgetting to recommend: "If Your Highness has it, you can consider selling it at a high price."

Under the mask, Ye Mo curled his lips and asked instead of answering: "You are so enthusiastic in trying to win him over. Are you familiar with that person?"

Xie Yousheng lowered his head and said, "Yes."

"Oh?" Ye Mo showed a hint of interest. "Who was hiding behind me in the corridor just now?"

Xie Yousheng lowered his head even more and said nothing.

Ye Mo understood, but Xie Yousheng didn't want to talk much about this person.

He was very satisfied with Jie Yousheng. Jie Yousheng was quick-witted and knew how to handle things in moderation. He felt at ease letting him do something.

At the same time, he did not interfere in his private affairs.

"The Ice Stone is very important to me," he said. "Without sufficient leverage, I won't make a move easily."

Xie Yousheng's eyes lit up and he asked, "What does Your Highness want?"

"Xuan Yue's current master."

"This..." Xie Yousheng was very embarrassed.

Three years ago, when the Bi Cang Auction was first opened, the dagger was placed on the bounty list, ranking second after Yan Linghua.

Three years have passed.

No news at all.

How could he find the owner of the dagger in the shortest possible time?

"Are you in a dilemma?" Ye Mo said coldly with a solemn expression, "The Ice Stone is not an ordinary object. This prince is also in a dilemma."

"I will do my best to find Xuan Yue's master as soon as possible."
