Chapter 41: Hear Qing Song Again...
Yun Feiyan saw that Yi Cheng was puzzled and did not give him an explanation. He only said: "You go back, I will stay here for a while. You come here again in ten days. Since you and I are destined, I will give you to you when I fall."
Please explain in detail."
After hearing this, Yi Cheng said happily: "Thank you Aunt Yun..."
He was about to say Miss Yun, but when he thought about it carefully, it was wrong. The master said that as long as he reached the innate level, his appearance would be immortal. Although the woman in front of him was only twenty years old, who knew if she was actually a senior who had been practicing for many years.
Yun Feiyan saw him stop mid-sentence. How could she not understand what he meant? She said angrily: "What the hell, Aunt Yun, am I that old?"
Yi Cheng saw that she had regained her youthful vitality when he first saw her. At this time, he knew that Yun Feiyan was not simple and how could he dare to offend her again. He hurriedly said: "No, no, Miss Yun has endless charm. How can she age?" Yi Cheng looked sincere.
road.
Yun Feiyan chuckled and said, "If you don't follow your heart, let's go, let's go. Remember to come here in ten days. Don't wait if you are late!" After saying that, he winked at Yi Cheng.
Yi Cheng was surprised and left quickly.
When he walked out of the boat, it was getting late and everyone else had already left.
Yicheng also knew that he could not recognize his younger brother today, so he had to wait to meet Zhao Deyuan another day. After all, the Zhao family had raised his younger brother for more than ten years, and he had to recognize his younger brother like this without letting them know.
Early the next morning, Yicheng came to Qiqiao Pavilion to inquire about the whereabouts of the master. When he saw the shopkeeper, Yichen directly explained his purpose, but the shopkeeper recognized Yicheng. It turned out that he had also participated in the auction held at Tianfeng Trading Company the day before yesterday, but he did not
Knowing that Xiao Yi is Yicheng, when Yi Cheng took out the Qingfeng Sword, the shopkeeper also recognized it. Only then did he realize that Xiao Yi was Xiao Yi.
After the shopkeeper explained it in detail, Yi Cheng found out that the shopkeeper's surname was Zhang Jinzhong. The ancestors of the Zhang family were related to Song Wuque. Song Wuque took good care of him. The business had been doing well over the years. Song Wuque also left some small things to this shopkeeper.
.
I learned from Shopkeeper Zhang that Song Wuque had come here once a year ago and told him that if Yicheng came to find him, he would ask him to find him in two months in a small village under Fengming Mountain, thousands of miles north of the capital.
Yicheng had no choice but to temporarily suppress his concern for his master and settle other matters at hand first.
At noon, Yicheng came to the Biluo Teahouse. This was the busiest time of the day. Many people would choose to talk about something in the teahouse, or come to the teahouse to listen to the storyteller.
An allusion.
There are also many private rooms in the teahouse, where distinguished guests can drink tea and chat without being disturbed.
Yicheng came to the teahouse and asked for a private room. He only said that he wanted to see the shopkeeper. Seeing that this guest was spending a lot of money and was not someone he could offend, the waiter hurriedly went to find the shopkeeper to greet him.
When the shopkeeper came to the room, Yi Cheng saw that the shopkeeper was just an ordinary person and had not practiced martial arts. He looked shrewd, which showed that the people of Chu were cautious.
The shopkeeper was a fair-faced middle-aged man in his forties who was a little overweight. He had a warm smile on his face that only a businessman could have. He said to Yi Cheng, "I am Liu Yongshan, the shopkeeper of this teahouse. What do you think your guest would like?" After saying that, he looked at Yi Cheng.
Secretly looking at Yicheng.
Yicheng didn't talk nonsense to him and said: "I was asked by someone to come here to meet a person and pass on a few words."
Shopkeeper Liu was a little surprised when he heard this, and asked: "I don't know who you want to see. We are just a teahouse here. I'm afraid there is no one you want to see."
Seeing that he refused to tell the truth, Yi Cheng was not surprised. He took out Ge Feng's identity token from his arms and said, "Do you recognize this?"
Shopkeeper Liu saw the token, grabbed it in his hand, and identified it carefully. After confirming that it was correct, he cupped his fists at Yicheng and said, "I don't know your surname, how did you get this token?"
Yicheng did not want to reveal his true identity at this time, so he said: "Xiao Yi, this token was given to me by senior Ge Fengge. Please let me pass on a few words."
Shopkeeper Liu heard this and said: "It turns out it's Young Master Xiao. I'm disrespectful and disrespectful. I wonder what Ge Laorang said?"
Yi Chengdao: "I can't say it now. Mr. Ge told me that I can only say it after meeting the real owner of this place."
When Shopkeeper Liu heard this, he looked troubled and said: "Well, Mr. Xiao, since Mr. Ge asked you to pass the message, he must have great trust in you, but this matter is of great importance and I can't decide. How about I give you an answer tomorrow?"
Yicheng nodded and said, "Okay, I'll come back here tomorrow. Now you can serve me a pot of tea and some snacks. I'm a little hungry."
Shopkeeper Liu knew that Yicheng didn't want anyone to notice anything strange and acted cautiously, so he ate something here, so he ordered him to go down and pick out some good pastries and fruits and send them in.
Yicheng left the teahouse, thinking about a reason to go to Zhao's house and meet the prime minister. For a moment, Yicheng couldn't think of a good way. It seemed inappropriate to sneak in secretly. If he went in openly, he would go to Zhao's house.
God's gift is reasonable, but finding Zhao Deyuan is a bit far-fetched.
Although Qi State did not take any drastic measures against the people of the previous dynasty, his father's status was special, he was the top military general of Chu State, and his younger brother was adopted by Zhao Deyuan. If the news were leaked, it would not only implicate Zhao Deyuan, but also make him feel guilty.
Uneasy, what is even more difficult is what to choose after my brother knows his true identity.
The younger brother seems to have unclear memory of what happened back then. After all, he is too young and his memory is blurry. The Zhao family will not tell him anything. Gradually, the image of his parents in the younger brother's consciousness is naturally the adoptive father and adoptive mother he sees every day.
In the past, I just gradually forgot about it.
Now that a seventeen-year-old boy was asked to make such a difficult decision, Yi Cheng couldn't bear to tell his brother the truth.
Yicheng was thinking as he walked back. When he walked back to the hotel, he didn't think of any good solution. He had to put it down for the time being and see Zhao Deyuan first. At most, he wouldn't tell anything about his father and would find an opportunity to explain it later.
Yicheng was thinking in the room when he heard the shop assistant knocking on the door hurriedly. While knocking, he yelled at the top of his voice: "Young Master Xiao, Young Master Xiao, come out quickly. The General and the Prime Minister are here to deliver His Majesty's decree."
.Come out quickly and receive the order!"
Yicheng was really stunned when he heard this. How could there be an imperial edict passed to him? Moreover, although he had not received the imperial edict, he also knew that the imperial edicts were transmitted by the eunuchs in the palace, unless something big happened.
Important officials from the court came to convey the decree.
Even if he had some merit in Cangzhou, it was still not enough for the emperor to take him so seriously. Furthermore, he had beaten Zhou Tianqi last time and offended Prince Shuo. They should have used some tricks on him. Why would they issue an imperial edict now?
Could it be that they found out about the Prince of Chu? He just came back from there, so it shouldn't be such a coincidence.
Yicheng guessed that although he would definitely not accept this imperial edict, the door still had to be opened.
Yicheng lived in a small independent courtyard, so although other people in the hotel heard the noise, they did not dare to approach.
When Yicheng opened the door, there was only a waiter knocking on the door. Not far away stood two officials, one civil and one military, with more than a dozen imperial guards standing behind them.
Yicheng looked at the two officials. The civil servant was in his early forties, somewhat elegant, holding an imperial decree, and quite majestic;
The military commander is a big man about fifty years old, with a long back and strong waist, and is extremely tough. He is completely a standard northern man. His face is full of fierceness, and the murderous aura radiating around him is intimidating.
Yicheng smiled bitterly in his heart. He was still thinking about how to see Zhao Deyuan just now, but now he walked to the door by himself. It was really a sleepy pillow, but this pillow was very painful now.
Yicheng walked out of the room, slightly cupped his hands towards the two of them and said, "Thank you for bringing me here, please come to the room and have a cup of tea first."
He never mentioned the imperial edict, turned around and walked back to the room.
Zhao Deyuan and Zhou Kang looked at each other and said in their hearts: Prince Shuo is indeed right. This person is really too arrogant and does not even pay attention to the emperor's imperial edict. But with so many people here at the moment, if you say
Wouldn't it be a loss of royal dignity to say this, so the two of them asked their men to wait here and followed Yicheng into the room.
Yicheng returned to the house, picked up two teacups, and made a cup of tea for the two of them. When he saw them coming in, he greeted them: "Please sit down, you two. You have worked hard for a long time. Let's have a cup of tea and rest."
After saying that, he sat down first, then picked up a tea cup and poured himself a cup.
Zhao Deyuan and Zhou Kang were really angry at Yi Cheng at this time. After all, Zhao Deyuan was a civil servant and had served as prime minister for several years. He still had some skills in cultivating qi and had not yet taken effect.
And Zhou Kang was originally a strong general. Although he was not the kind of common man who only knew how to charge and kill without any brains, he was also known for his strictness in running the army and his decisive killing. At this time, Na Na could still hold back and immediately roared at Yicheng:
"Bold Xiao Yi, hurry up and kneel down to accept the order. Neglecting the imperial order is equivalent to neglecting His Majesty. It is the crime of bullying the emperor and destroying the clan. If you don't accept the order, you will be killed on the spot."
As he spoke, he put his hand on the hilt of the sword, ready to unsheath it at any time.
Yicheng glanced at Zhou Kang indifferently, picked up the tea cup, opened the lid, pressed it, blew a breath, took a sip of tea, and then said: "General Zhou, please be patient. This tea is just right. It won't be cold anymore."
But it doesn’t taste good, so I advise the general to sit down and drink tea, otherwise I can guarantee that if the general pulls out his sword, the head that falls off today will definitely not be mine."
