Crystal Coffin of Bodyguard

Chapter 14 Treasure

After the two left, Guo Xu was the only one left in the room. From the opened door, Cheng Tieyi was still standing at the door of Caiyu like a stone-carved clay sculpture. In the past two or three days, except for Hao Chengyi's provocation, There is no other danger, but the more unusually calm the situation is, the more heaviness Guo Xu feels. If the road ahead is only dangerous, it's nothing.

After the Escort set off from Leling, the weather was calm for two consecutive days. At dusk on the second day, they entered Jinan Prefecture and settled down at the largest Yuefu Inn in the city. After dinner, it was still early. This Yuefu Inn is close to the main street. There were people coming and going at the door, and the sound of hawking and yelling kept coming and going, it was really lively, so Caiyu said to Tie Yi, "Brother, Jinan Mansion is so lively, why don't we go out for a stroll?"

Before the words were finished, Duan Lingluo said happily: "Okay, okay, first I said that the gouache is used up, and I don't know where to buy it. This Jinan Prefecture is so lively, and jade mining, you have to help me choose some good ones."

Cheng Tieyi showed hesitation, Guo Xu knew that he was worried about picking jade, and said with a smile: "These two days of escorting are boring and boring, Tieyi, you and Feng Ping will accompany the two girls out for a walk, Jinan Prefecture has always It is said that one city has mountains and half a city has lakes', although it is not possible to view the lake during the day, it is expected that the night view is not bad."

Caiyu and Duan Lingluo were disappointed when they heard that Guo Xu would not go, Cheng Tieyi saw it and said to Guo Xu: "You and Feng Ping go with them, they want to buy rouge and gouache, I don't understand... ...I will stay at the inn to guard the guards."

Hearing what Tie Yi said, Caiyu knew that Tie Yi had guessed his mind, his cheeks became hot, Guo Xu spread his hands, and said to Feng Ping: "Listen to what Tie Yi said, maybe I understand rouge powder Are there too many?"

Feng Ping didn't reply, just laughed dryly, and looked at Guo Xu with some malicious intentions. Caiyu and Duan Lingluo understood it, and couldn't help laughing. Guo Xu said urgently: "Feng Ping, this Not enough friends..."

While joking, someone came in from the door. When Guo Xu looked up, he was stunned for a moment when he saw that the person was dressed in Jin Yiwei.

Sure enough, the man came straight to Guo Xu, bowed and saluted, "Master Weng Taibei Weng, Fusi of Jinyiwei North Town, please move forward for Mr. Guo and Mr. Cheng." He took it out from his arms. A letter was handed over to Guo Xu.

Guo Xu smiled and said: "I knew Mr. Weng was walking ahead of us, but I never thought we would meet in Quancheng." He took out the letter, glanced at it briefly, and said to the man: "You lead the way." At the time of Tie Yi, Cheng Tieyi didn't want to go to Weng Taibei to invite him, so he turned around and sat down on the bench, saying: "You go, you can't leave people here."

Guo Xu pretended to be stunned, and said regretfully: "Since this is the case, you probably won't hear what Princess Tuo Weng said."

Before the words fell, Cheng Tieyi stood up abruptly, and said in astonishment: "Princess? Could it be related to Tianfeng?"

Guo Xu let out a "huh" and said, "Since you're not going, does it matter if it's related to Tianfeng?"

Caiyu knew that Tieyi could not win the prize against Guo Xu, so she stomped her feet anxiously and said, "Guo Xu, you still say... brother, why are you still standing there, why don't you go?" He still pretended to be reluctant, and when he saw Guo Xubu go out later, he hurriedly followed out regardless of the laughter of the crowd.

After walking for a short time, I came to a music hall, before I stepped into the door, I heard the sound of silk and bamboo, the man said: "Please, Mr. Weng is already waiting inside."

Guo Xu and Cheng Tieyi glanced at each other, they never expected that Weng Taibei, who has always been deep in thought, would choose to meet them in such a place where eyes and ears were mixed. As soon as they entered the door, a young woman with heavy makeup greeted them with a smile on her face. Come up, Guo Xu used to linger in pink and hairpin skirts in the old days, and he is no stranger to this kind of occasion, but time has passed, and he has no longer the mood of youth, and was about to refuse, the woman blessed the two of them, and said in a low voice: " Master Weng is in the backyard, the two of you will come with me."

Guo Xu was stunned for a moment, and then realized that this woman must be an extraordinary singer, she should be a leader in Jinyiwei. Sure enough, when walking all the way to the backyard, the woman's expression and behavior were very alert, compared with the Gu Pan when she greeted the guests just now. Wan Zhong seemed to have changed, Guo Xu thought because Jin Yiwei's power had grown so much that the emperor had relied heavily on him for many years, but they did have unusual means, and some of them were skilled in martial arts and resourcefulness.

After walking through several corridors, I entered the backyard from the moon gate. There were some rosy trees sparsely planted in the yard. There was a stone table and a few stone benches in the yard. There was no tea or wine on the table, only a lantern was placed. Weng Tai Sitting beside the stone table, Bei frowned, but did not show his face.

Guo Xu's heart skipped a beat, according to his dealings with Weng Taibei, no matter what difficult things he faced, Weng Taibei would definitely greet people first and have a cup of tea before cutting into the topic. Rarely have you been so unhappy and not shy away from others.

Sure enough, when Weng Taibei saw the two coming in, he didn't get up to greet them, but he just let out a long sigh.

Guo Xu and Cheng Tieyi exchanged suspicious looks, and sat down at the table by themselves, and the woman backed away quietly.

Seeing the woman walking away, Weng Taibei opened his mouth and said, "Guo Xiandi, are you here all right?"

Guo Xu smiled and said: "It's not bad, at least I can sit here and chat with adults."

Weng Taibei smiled wryly and said: "Guo Xiandi has always been used to being carefree, and he can still be so comfortable after receiving such a difficult dart from Ling Luomei... This old man is different. He ran around for the crystal coffin, and one day he will accompany this coffin." Old life."

Guo Xu let out an "oh" and asked curiously, "Master Weng has been inquiring for many days, do you have any clues?"

Weng Taibei nodded and said: "Not only does it have clues, but it also has a lot to do with the Changfeng Escort... Otherwise, I wouldn't have invited the two of you over to talk about it."

Cheng Tieyi said strangely: "It's strange. Over the past few days, seemingly irrelevant things have been related to the Changfeng Escort. Mr. Weng, tell me, this time, there is another incident with the Changfeng Escort. What's the matter?"

Weng Taibei smiled slightly and said: "If we start from the beginning, this person and Brother Tie Yi are old acquaintances. Brother Tie Yi, do you still remember Tang Zheng, one of the Five Scattered People?"

During the battle of Amethyst, Cheng Tieyi once mistrusted Tang Zheng and was drugged by the Tang Sect, which almost hurt Cui Ting. After a long time, when he thought of it, he still sighed and lamented that people are hard to understand. How could he forget?Hearing Weng Taibei's mention, he nodded immediately and said, "I remember."

When looking at Guo Xu, Guo Xu was slightly surprised, obviously not understanding why Weng Taibei mentioned this section.

Weng Taibei said: "Prince Yao has five confidant killers, and Tang Zheng is just one of them. The other is Xing Ji, who will later become Cui Ting. Besides these two, who else do you know?"

When Guo Xu heard Cui Ting's name suddenly, he felt at a loss and felt as if he had passed away. Cheng Tieyi asked, "Who else?"

Weng Taibei said with a smile: "there is also the wife of Prince Yao when he was young, Feng Ziyao, who is known as the 'Yaochi Poison Hand'. People in Prince Yao's mansion call her Empress Yaoji. But later Yaoji fell out of favor and was abandoned. No one will know her whereabouts."

Cheng Tieyi hummed and said, "There are two more?"

Weng Taibei looked pale: "It doesn't matter who the other two are. They were in charge of my Jin Yiwei's custody long before Prince Yao's rebellion. So when I saw the fire scorpion brand on Tang Zheng that day, I would know this. It is the mark of the five scattered people."

Cheng Tieyi let out a groan, his face revealed a look of surprise, Guo Xu smiled and said: "In this world, how can there be news that Jin Yiwei can't find out."

Weng Taibei looked at Guo Xu and said, "Guo Xu, you must be a little confused. Why did the old man conclude that it came from Prince Yao's secret treasure when he heard the crystal coffin? When Jin Yiwei tortured the two Wusan people, he vaguely caught their words. They knew that Prince Yao had a treasure in a remote place in Mobei, but they couldn't tell the exact location, so Jin Yiwei kept investigating secretly and didn't mention it to the Holy One. According to the original estimate, the Holy Majesty became suspicious... and according to the two Wusan people, only Prince Yao himself and Xing Ji know the exact location of the treasure."
