Tang riddles

Chapter 169

It has been three days since Shen Sui sneaked into Fan Yangya shop in disguise, and the eighth day of the eighth lunar month is the time for handing over slaves and maidservants according to the contract.In the morning of the same day, Shen Sui once again disguised himself as the wretched man of that day, and went to Fanyang Yahang.This wretched man also has a name and surname, Zheng Yi, he is a Han Chinese, and he is indeed Dandong's servant.

It was stipulated in the contract that the delivery place was at the address chosen by Yaxing's servants, but Fan Yang Yaxing hadn't informed Shen Sui of the address they had arranged in the past three days, so Shen Sui had to make a trip in advance. Yahang, and then follow the people in Yahang to the delivery place.In fact, even if the people from the dental shop swaggered into Dandong's house to inquire, this matter would not be revealed.Because Dandong, a big businessman from Sogdia, is also a member of Qianyumen.Although he lives in Fan Yang temporarily, he is actually an important member of the Qianyu Sect who goes to Turkic every year to collect information. He brings a lot of information to Turkic.

If Shen Sui wants to disguise himself, he must be fully prepared, without missing any flaws.

"Master...it's too dangerous, we should all go with you." Feng Zijian worried when he went out.

"No, if you go there, you will startle the enemy. Don't worry, even if I'm exposed, I can protect myself. You can only observe from the outside, and don't get close." She said, and when she said this, she couldn't help but glanced at Zhang Ruohan.

Zhang Ruohan said with a smile: "You go, pay attention to safety."

"En." Shen Sui nodded, took her hand, and left.

A quarter of an hour after Shen Sui left, Zhang Ruohan had already changed into an unremarkable blue-gray men's robe, put on a black gauze cap to cover his face, and followed Feng Zijian out the door.She also wanted to participate in this operation, which was requested by herself, and Shen Sui also agreed, although Zhang Ruohan was still extremely excited even though she was only observing and responding to the mission from the outside.She has always had a cold face, and she doesn't show her emotions, but she can't hide the sparkle in her eyes.Wu Ya also came. Standing beside San Niang, she could clearly feel that San Niang was suppressing her excited emotions. Wu Ya pursed her lips and snickered. The waiting didn't completely wear away the mischievousness she had when she was a young girl, but now that she is looking forward to her husband's return, she is living younger and younger.

After another moment, the following Qianyumen brothers reported that the owner of the sect had entered Fan Yang Yahang.

Half a moment later, the news came again, the sect master had left Fanyang Yahang with An Lushan and others.

Zhang Ruohan and Wu Ya followed Feng Zijian all the way, and personally experienced the power of Qianyumen's intelligence.They walked on the road as if nothing had happened, scattered and aimless, and not in groups, as if they didn't know each other.The vendors peddling along the side, and the pedestrians passing by in a hurry, seemed to be Qian Yumen's eyeliner. Every once in a while, someone would come up to Feng Zijian and give Feng Zijian a signal, telling them where to go.Qianyumen has a set of very simple and practical codes. Touching the forehead means north, touching the chin means south, scratching the nose means standing still, touching the left eye means west, touching the right eye means east.The number of fingers stretching out and scratching represents how many streets to walk ahead, the left hand represents the left turn at the intersection ahead, and the right hand represents the right turn at the intersection ahead.

So just a simple scratching motion can tell where to go.

Guided all the way, finally, the last Qianyumen brother who delivered the message issued a secret signal: the house on the left in front is the destination, and the tea shop on the right is waiting temporarily.

Zhang Ruohan and Wu Ya followed Feng Zijian into the tea shop, went up to the second floor, and sat in the seat by the window. The carved wooden window concealed their existence, and they observed the small house not far away through the gap.At this height, the interior can be seen through the courtyard wall.The yard is very simple, even a little dilapidated.Zheng Yi, dressed as Shen Sui, was standing in the center of the courtyard, talking with an obese man.There are several followers behind the man, and there is a person who looks like a maidservant.

"That obese man is An Lushan?" Zhang Ruohan asked.

"Exactly. It's not unusual for him to deliver the servants himself. Maybe there's something tricky about it." Feng Zijian replied.

"What are they talking about, why have they been talking for so long?" Wu Ya asked strangely.

"According to the plan, Bo Zhao will make up random reasons and ask for an immediate change of address in order to observe the reactions of An Lushan and others." Zhang Ruohan replied, her eyes never leaving the courtyard. "It seems that we can't agree .This An Lushan is tough."

"An Lushan is leaving." Feng Zi insisted.

Sure enough, An Lushan shook his hand, left the maidservant, and left the yard with his own people.

Feng Zijian immediately called his subordinates over and told him to follow An Lushan immediately.

But Zhang Ruohan saw that Shen Sui called the maidservant into the room, she knew that Shen Sui was going to talk to the maidservant.She picked up the teacup and took a sip.Ask Feng Zijian:

"An Lushan chose to arrange an address in this place, is there something strange?"

"This is a poor area in the north of the city. It is close to the military camp in the north. If we choose a place for slaves and maidservants, it's not a big deal. We paid a lot of money, but An Lushan found such a poor place. No one would be satisfied with it. , it gave us a reason to change our address. Besides, this place is too far away from Dandong's house in the south of the city, so I don't know why An Lushan chose this place, which is really strange." He changed the subject and said:

"However, the south of the city is very expensive, especially in recent years, with more and more merchants from Sogdian and Huihe, and the south of the city is getting more and more crowded. It is really not easy to find a suitable small house for this servant. Besides, In the south of the city, there are several big houses of aristocratic families, occupying a lot of land, and the most prosperous Nanshi is also in the south. I can understand why An Lushan chose to live in the north of the city. He is a greedy guy and a Someone who doesn't want to do trouble."

"Let's see what Bo Zhao can ask. I intuitively think that An Lushan has a deeper reason for choosing this place." Zhang Ruohan said.

Feng Zijian took a look at the wife of the head of the sect, and thought: Madam's intuition... It seems that the eight or nine are inseparable.

After about two quarters of an hour, Shen Sui came out of the small house alone.She hunched over and left in a sneaky manner. After a while, she came in through the back door of the tea shop. She had changed her clothes and her disguise.Wearing a low-key blue cloth cross-collar gown, hair tied with a small hairpin, without a headdress.

She walked up to Zhang Ruohan and sat down, picked up Zhang Ruohan's teacup, and drank the tea in one gulp.

"Lotus Maid, why don't you drink this tea? Sour plum tea is very good to quench your thirst and cool off the heat."

Zhang Ruohan shook her head with a smile, took out the handkerchief and wiped off the sweat on her forehead and cheeks, saying:

"I don't really want to eat sour food, I always have some discomfort in my stomach."

"Why are you feeling uncomfortable again, why don't you let the girl see?" Shen Sui said nervously.

"It's nothing, I just saw it in the morning, she didn't say anything, she just said it's too hot today." Zhang Ruohan said.

Shen Sui nodded: "Let's go back to rest early later."

"Stop talking about that, Hall Master Feng is still waiting for you to tell me how things are going?" Zhang Ruohan seemed a little embarrassed, and changed the subject.

Feng Zijian chuckled twice, but didn't answer.Shen Sui cleared his throat and said:

"An Lushan is really weird. I feel that he is deliberately avoiding the area south of the city."

"What did the maidservant say?" Zhang Ruohan asked her.

"The slave girl didn't know much, but said that when she was locked in the Yaxing dungeon, she could hear whirring sounds that seemed to come from far away every night. There was also the sound of 'dongdong' trampling , the ground is shaking."

"Is the dental shop transporting slaves?" Feng Zijian asked with a frown.

Shen Sui shook his head: "I also asked that servant girl, and she said it didn't look like it, but it seemed that there were many men shouting in unison and stamping the ground together."

"A lot of men?" Feng Zijian was at a loss, "It stands to reason that the ratio of male slaves to female slaves is about the same. Could it be that Fan Yang Yaxing pulls all the male slaves out for military exercises every night?"

Shen Sui was still a little confused at first, but when he heard Feng Zijian's words, his eyes lit up and he stood up abruptly.She seemed to have thought of something, walked back and forth twice with her hands behind her back, and said:

"Old Feng, get ready, I want to visit Fan Yangya at night."

Feng Zijian opened his mouth wide, very surprised: "Master... this... is too dangerous."

"I don't have time. I'm going tonight. Find me five or six brothers with strong skills. If you miss tonight, I'm afraid we will miss the opportunity."

Feng Zijian was a little embarrassed, he really felt that it would be too reckless to act like this, and it would be very dangerous.He wanted to persuade him again, but looking at Shen Sui's unquestionable expression, he couldn't say anything, he could only glance at Zhang Ruohan, hoping that Zhang Ruohan would speak to persuade him.

Zhang Ruohan just looked at Shen Sui quietly, she didn't express any opinion on Shen Sui's sudden decision.With guilt on his face, Shen Sui stepped forward to hold her and said:

"Lotus Maid, I'm sorry, you go back first, the action tonight is very dangerous, you can't participate."

"I will support you in whatever you do. It's just that I hope you pay attention to safety, and you are no longer the same person you used to be." Zhang Ruohan said softly.

"En!" Shen Sui nodded solemnly.

After lunch, Shen Sui sent someone to send Zhang Ruohan and Wu Ya back to the mansion first.Zhang Ruohan was a little tired, so when he entered the room, he leaned on the couch to rest.There's not much use for lunch, but I'm a little hungry now.For some reason, suddenly wanting to eat Lengtao, she said to Wu Ya:

"Wu Ya, go make a bowl of Lengtao, add dogwood, pepper oil, and spicy fermented soybeans, I'm a little hungry."

"Okay, Sanniang..." Wu Ya was a little puzzled, and confirmed again: "How much dogwood, pepper oil, and fermented soybeans should be added? You don't usually eat these."

"Add more, I don't know why, but I really want to eat it." Zhang Ruohan said weakly with half-closed eyes.

"Okay... okay." Wu Ya led the order and left.

Zhang Ruohan was drowsy, when the door was pushed open suddenly, and Xiongniang walked in.

"The bride?"

"Chishi didn't come back?" Liao Niang stood far away, not approaching, nor did she seem to come to give Zhang Ruohan a pulse.

"She's still at Qianyumen, are you looking for her?" Zhang Ruohan asked strangely.

"Well, I have something to tell her." Lien Niang said, "You rest, I'm going out."

"Well, go slowly. It's hot, so be careful not to suffer from heat stroke," Zhang Ruohan said.

"Okay, I'll save it." The bride smiled and walked out.

Zhang Ruohan felt a little doubt in her heart, but she was tired and lazy these days, and she couldn't summon up the energy to ask.Forget it, ask again tomorrow, she slowly closed her eyes.When Wu Ya came back with a bowl of extremely spicy Lengtao, Zhang Ruohan had already fallen asleep.

……

As the sun was setting, Yizheng lingered at the door for a long time, anxious all over.Looking at the sun that was about to set, she gritted her teeth and finally went to the stable and led a horse out.She got on the horse and rode towards Changfengtang.

What she didn't know was that two people watched her for a long time in the shadow of the porch.One sitting and one standing, like two clay sculptures.After she left, the person sitting silently waved her hand, and the person standing pushed her into the carriage and drove after her.

When Yiyan arrived at the back hall of Changfeng Hall, Shen Sui had just changed into her night clothes and was taking care of her snow knife.When she first saw Yizheng push the door open, she was a little surprised.

"Tiaoniang? Why are you here? Did something happen to the lotus maid?" Shen Sui put down the snow knife and stood up nervously.

Yizheng shook her head, pursed her lips and looked at Shen Sui.After a while, she said:

"The lotus maid is fine, no, there is something, but it's not... a big deal. Nor is it, it's actually a big deal." She was a little incoherent.

Shen Sui frowned: "What are you talking about? I don't understand."

Yiyan stepped forward, grabbed Shen Sui and said, "Where are you going? Are you going to Fanyang Yaxing?"

Shen Sui took a deep breath, suppressed the anxiety in his heart, and nodded.

"You are not allowed to go, I will not allow you to go." Yizheng said bluntly.

"Why?" Shen Sui was puzzled.

"That place is too dangerous, especially for you. There is a vampire there. Even if you have a small scratch, and the vampire smells your blood, it will be fatal."

"Xiaoniang!" Shen Sui's brows became tighter and tighter, she firmly grasped Yizheng's shoulders, and asked:

"Is there something you are hiding from me? Is it related to my blood?"

Yiyan knew that she couldn't hide it from Shen Sui, and she came here just to tell Shen Sui the deepest secret about her.She took a deep breath and said:

"Chishi... Lotus Maid is pregnant..."

Shen Sui didn't seem to understand her words, he was stunned for a moment, and asked stupidly:

"What did you say?"

"The lotus maid is pregnant." Yizheng said without a word, and then added, "It's your child."

"Me?" Shen Sui felt something screaming in her head, all the blood rushed to her forehead, and her whole brain became unable to think because of tinnitus, "I... am a woman." At this moment, she was not even sure of herself gender.

"Of course you are a woman, but you are not an ordinary woman." Yi Yan's hand tightly grasped her arm, and her nails were almost embedded in her flesh.

"On the twenty-eighth day of the seventh month, your hand was injured and bleeding. You had intercourse with the lotus maidservant and conceived that day. So far, on the eighth day of the eighth day of the eighth month, within ten days, I have felt the child's pulse, and the lotus maidservant has already started feeling sick. Yours The child is extraordinary, Chishi, Luanhuang bloodline...there is a next generation heir..."

Shen Sui lost his strength, plopped, and knelt down on the ground.

The author has something to say: the big plot of this volume is coming.
