Prostitution

Chapter 85

Wen Wuyu was just seeing the bracelets on the stand. The color was pure white and lustrous, and the iridescent color around it was delicate. It was the other three, without stopping their eyes, picked up the bracelet and asked the seller, "Boss, how much is this?"

The peddler immediately danced, danced, and boasted enthusiastically, "Master, you have good eyesight. This bracelet is made from the best clam shells. Look at the color and texture. It stands out from the crowd! Take a closer look...it can also Dispel evil spirits, calm shocks, and prolong life!"

Wen Wuyu heard that there is also the benefit of warding off evil spirits and calming shock, so he casually said, "That's fate, I was stalked by little ghosts recently, and I just need to ward off evil spirits and protect myself."

"That's right, fate!" The peddler hastily agreed.

The three of them had already stood in front of the stall, Qi Mingxiu looked away with a look of disdain.

Wen Wuyu put on the bracelet, and looked at Yuan Cheng after enjoying it for a few rounds, "Master, pay the money."

"How much?" Yuan Cheng asked.

"Five taels of silver." The peddler smiled obsequiously, showing a palm.

Yuan Cheng felt a little cramped, turned his eyes to look behind him, his brows twitched and his eyes locked on Qi Jue, he never went out without money, all the money was in Lian Qi's hands, but there was no one around him.

Qi Jue understood, and immediately took out a few pieces of silver from his waist and handed them to the peddler.

The peddler repeatedly bowed his head and took it with both hands, and he was still shouting thanks when he walked away.

Wen Wuyu got the treasure to ward off evil spirits, and he walked with his hands clasped behind his back feeling refreshed. The giant clam bracelets made half of his wrist complexion fairer, while he fiddled with the beads intentionally or unintentionally, the sound of the beads colliding echoed in the noisy market. It's barely audible, but in Qi Mingxiu's mind, it's like singing a triumphant song, making his teeth itch with hatred.

The dust-cleaning banquet is also left with melancholy.

Until I moved into the original house.

The whole house is made of wood, about the size of the incense pavilion in the palace, and it is divided into a middle hall, and the two bedrooms facing each other are especially small.The slightly larger one was the room Qi Mingxiu once lived in.It's not too big to say, a double bed takes up more than half of it.And the other room was even smaller and pitiful, with only a single bed, and two more people squeezed into the room, stepping on their feet when they turned around.

Qi Mingxiu remembered the hatred all the way, and seized the opportunity to point out the room first, "Where do you live."

Wen Wuyu pushed open the door and took a look, said that the shabbyness is indeed a little bit, but people are under the eaves, there is no reason not to bow their heads, so he refrained from talking.

Yuan Cheng also leaned over, frowned at Qi Jue with just one glance, and wanted to reject the offer and choose another place to live. Qi Mingxiu paid attention to this side with all his heart, and immediately dragged Yuan Cheng by the arm to go to another room, "This place is not only secluded It is convenient for discussion, the scenery is good, and there is a lake not far away."

Yuan Cheng was still frowning, obviously not convinced, Qi Jue was very embarrassed, secretly regretting that he followed Qi Mingxiu's proposal, thinking that the prince is no better than him and Mingxiu, although the situation is difficult, but he can eat and drink on a daily basis The daily life is served by the servants below, and I am used to being pampered. I must have never seen such a simple house, let alone live here.

So he went closer and made another suggestion, "There is a Yunlai Inn twenty miles away, most of the merchants coming from south to north have a temporary rest, why don't you go there."

Qi Mingxiu lowered his hands to show his temper, "It's too far away!"

Qi Jue said with a smile, "It takes only a quarter of an hour for a fast horse."

Wen Wuyu, however, was at peace when he came, he was already sitting at the table of the Eight Immortals in the hall, beating his legs, without raising his eyes, he said slowly, "It's not a long-term stay, tossing so much is better than changing the bed and bringing a new quilt."

Qi Mingxiu snorted and laughed at him, "What kind of quilt do you need on a hot day, the bare bed is cool."

Wen Wuyu had no intention of arguing with him at all, and it was obvious that he was relentless again and again, so he turned to him with words, "You have to get a straw mat, Mr. Mingxiu is so mean, is it the way to treat guests?"

Qi Mingxiu stared at him with wide eyes, his eyes could eat people, as if he was going to punch him in the next moment.

Wen Wuyu looked away disdainfully, even if he didn't dare to pounce on him right now and beat him up.He felt even more ridiculous in his heart, he tried every means to keep the prince here, and he added fuel to the flames, that foolish man was so indifferent, would he become the king of a country in the future.

Yuan Cheng gradually lowered his face, at first he let Qi Mingxiu mess around and thought it would be a short time, but seeing that it was going to get worse, he finally got annoyed, closed his eyes hard, sighed harshly, and took a step to separate the two, "Just live here."

Qi Mingxiu immediately spread out his moves like a spring breeze blowing willows, "I'll go back and call Feng Bolai in a while, there is a small kitchen behind this house..."

"Don't bother," Yuan Cheng interrupted him, walked to the door and saw Lian Qi driving the carriage late, "Let Lian Qi do the rest."

Qi Mingxiu could only swallow his breath, not daring to say more.Qi Jue could only sigh silently.

Poor Lian Qi was stopped by the guards, searched the carriage and questioned several times, and after a little delay, he found this place after going round and round.

Before he could rest for a moment, he took his master and ordered him to drive into the city without stopping.

The dilapidated Eight Immortals table had accumulated a thin layer of dust.

Yuan Cheng was preoccupied with the most important thing of this trip, he was free right now, and had no time to care about such trivial things as dirty or not, so he called the two of them to sit together, and asked straightforwardly,

"Is the good hermit I want ready?"

As soon as this remark came out, the three of them were stunned, and two vigilant eyes turned to Wen Wuyu, who was the only outsider sitting here.

Wen Wuyu had a clear mind, so he wanted to get up and avoid it.

Yuan Cheng pressed his hand that was about to leave the table, and said to the two, "It's okay, he is the son of the former Yu Shiwen."

Seeing that the two were even more suspicious, Yuan Cheng continued, "After this matter, in short, he is on the same path as me."

Qi Mingxiu pursed his lips and remained silent, and Qi Jue replied, "A total of 100 people, well-trained, just waiting for the prince's order."

Yuan Cheng nodded, "These ten teams will return to Beijing with me. On the Double Ninth Festival on the ninth day of September next month, as usual, the emperor will go to Daishan to worship the ancestors, accompanied by hundreds of officials. At that time, these 100 people will enter the city in batches. Later, you will bring Lian Qi and When they meet, Lian Qi will arrange where they will stay, and Lian Qi will pass on my orders for the follow-up actions."

Qi Mingxiu asked curiously, "What can a hundred people do?"

"Before the incident, the guards in all parts of the capital were restrained, with the intention of disrupting the security order in the city and creating the illusion that the soldiers were approaching the city." Yuan Cheng was confident, "You will enter the palace with me. The early court is the day of the palace change."

Qi Jue and Qi Mingxiu looked at each other, "My lord and Mingxiu entered the palace alone, there are many soldiers in the palace, I'm afraid that when the emperor gives an order, what should I do to arrest the two of you?"

Yuan Cheng smiled and said, "You are stationed far away in Jiangnan Road, so I can't tell you many things, so let me tell you together. When the Zhong family was in power, Qu Yangguan, the servant of the Ministry of Punishment, was the father of Qu Tongyin, the current Shangshu of the Ministry of Punishment. The chief soldiers of the state government have very close personal relationships, and they all asked to be demoted to protect themselves. Mr. Qu resigned from his official position early, but he has never been idle for several years. Once something happened, as long as he wrote a letter, even if it leaked , the imperial court’s urgent order will definitely be stopped if it is handed over to them.”

Yuan Cheng paused when he said this, and seeing Qi Jue's puzzled face, he knew what he was wondering about, so he said,

"This is a preventive strategy. Take what you want, and don't waste a single soldier. If you attack in groups, the frontier garrison will be swept up, and we will be surrounded, and there will be no victory in a bloody battle." Be sure. Millions of soldiers are good, but blood will be trampled under the iron hoof, the country is uncertain, and the world will be chaotic first, causing endless harm."

Wen Wuyu couldn't help looking up at him at this moment.The prince is clear that he will not have half of the military power in his hands, but in fact he has already explored the way to win thoroughly.

Although it is good to have thousands of troops and horses, it is counterproductive if the situation is not right.

Thinking of this article, Wu Yu's eyes dimmed a bit.
