Chapter 124 Secret Visit

Wu Meng was wearing a blue gold crane cloak and a fox furnished felt hat. He followed two followers slowly walked on the long street with candlelight.

Along the way, he would stare at the man in brocade robe leading the way from time to time, and then lead his neck to look into the doors where lanterns are lighted on both sides, looking around, panic, like a young man who steals fragrance for the first time.

Only when you stand in front of him and look in his eyes can you see clearly the sharpness in your eyes hidden under the brim of your hat and the evil spirit that occasionally appears in your eyes.

He came to investigate the case of silver mining under the order of His Royal Highness the Crown Prince.

His Royal Highness came with the imperial decree to thoroughly investigate the accounts of the Baishuang City Silver Mine over the years. For Fulun, this opportunity is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity, and it was impossible to imagine in the past. This time, this opportunity was also due to the special kindness of Queen Fulun's intentional retreat, and he gave his order.

The Empress's return to the palace was delayed by another month.

Now, the Changli Palace is already in chaos. Empress Hezhe took this opportunity to lay out her wings and deal with many empresses. His Royal Highness proposed to go to Baishuang City at this time, but he did not want to avoid his sharpness for the time being.

Maybe he felt guilty about promoting a new crown and underestimating his relatives before; or maybe he wanted to see which is better, Hezhe or Fulun; or maybe he was already confused and forgot the original arrangement, so he had a trip to Baishuang City to the crown prince.

In any case, Fulun's family took the lead this time. If nothing unexpected happens, the Baishuang City Silver Mine will return to the palm. The happier Hezhe jumps, the faster he dies.

Before leaving, His Highness the Crown Prince went to the temple outside the city and said goodbye to Queen Fulun. The Empress only said one thing to him:

When the water is clear, there will be no fish.

This is a famous saying from the State of Song, meaning that no one is perfect, nothing is complete. When the Empress fights this one, she is afraid that the Crown Prince will be eager for quick success and will accidentally hurt her own people.

No matter how disobedient Brush Fulun is, he is still a dog of the Fulun family. His wealth and life are all in the hands of the Fulun family. He should not be too indulgent or too strict with him.

With the Queen's reminder, His Highness the Crown Prince also realized his mind. On the way he came, he sighed that he told his staff more than once that the account of the silver mine was probably very unbearable.

Fortunately, Fulun, the surname of Blush, was clearly his own person, but this time his crown prince came to check the accounts in person. The meat was rotten in the pot, and no matter how bad it was, outsiders could not get it.

However, even though he had already prepared, the situation in Baishuang City was still far beyond everyone's expectations.

Someone secretly colluded with foreigners to steal silver mines, and even converted the silver mine into dry stocks and placed it on the black market and sold it openly. But Bulush, the watchdog, knew nothing about it, and let these bold people sway under his nose, saying that he was a waste was polite, and it was useless.

After receiving the report, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince was extremely furious and gave Wu Meng three days to order him to find out a result. Otherwise, Wu Meng would not have to do the governor of the prairie. There were cattle and sheep waiting for him to grazle.

Wu Meng received the military order and ran around for two consecutive days, but found some clues. A broker of Xinli Kingdom who was arrested by him told the seller that the last 20% of the seller had a share for sale.

Wu Meng ordered him to contact the seller and made an appointment to discuss a secret deal in a brothel on the private prostitution street when the lights were in hand tonight. Wu Meng played the role of a wealthy businessman who paid for the dry stock.

Therefore, he only wore a gorgeous outfit today and dressed up as a rich Halqin merchant, appearing in this fireworks and willow alley.

Unfortunately, today's seller is not a real seller, but a middleman with several hands separated by him.

According to the Xinli broker, the intermediary was originally a thief, but because he committed a death sentence in Song State, he fled into the Dajin State. Now, in addition to committing some murder and robbery, he will also act as a lackey of the Jin State nobles and work hard for them. What this person wants most is a family member from Feinahusheli, who is said to want to take root in Dajin State and never return to Song State again.

Wu Meng didn't feel strange about this.

After all, it is a beheading and extermination transaction, so the seller will naturally put on a few more layers of skin on his body so that people can not see through it at first sight. And to meet with the middleman between Song Gou tonight, it is also to attract the main person behind him. Therefore, Wu Meng also prepared a backup plan in advance and must hold the thread firmly in his hand.

"Master, right in front of you." The Xinli broker who led the way suddenly pointed ahead. Wu Meng looked up and saw a small courtyard with green walls standing on the street, with three gorgeous red lanterns hanging above the door.

He stopped, held his hands behind his back, and looked curiously into the yard.

The courtyard gate was covered in vain, and through the crack of the door, one or two women could be seen vaguely, all wearing red and green, with gold and silver, which was no different from other portals on the street.

Wu Meng made a gesture, and a follower immediately walked forward, put an arm on the shoulder of the Xinli broker, half hostage and half dragging him over.

The broker immediately became frightened and struggled to shout, "Master, didn't you agree to just..."

Before he finished speaking, a sharp pain suddenly came from his shoulders, as if the whole bone was about to be crushed by the hand holding his shoulders. The Xinli broker was so painful that his face turned pale and he kept silent in horror. He didn't dare to say a word anymore, but he just rolled his eyes around, not knowing what idea he was going to make.

Wu Meng had regarded this person as a dead person and did not pay much attention to it. He asked the follower to take him forward and knocked on the door.

"Yiya", the gate of Zhuqiyuan opened in response, and two pretty little maids stood by the door with laughter. The half-old Xu's mother came out with a spring breeze on her face and greeted with a smile:

"Oh, the distinguished guest has finally arrived. We have been waiting for a long time, and the girls are almost ready to go through the autumn water."

As he said that, he threw a charming look at Wu Meng, shook the veil, and a sweet and fragrant breeze wafted over.

Wu Mengse smiled in a daze, but her feet didn't move.

"Master." A low call came from beside him. He turned his head and saw the remaining entourage shook his head slightly.

The two followers who came with Wu Meng today were all pretending to be His Highness’s personal guards. They possess martial arts skills and have more five senses than ordinary people. At this time, they were suggesting that Wu Meng was not ambushing around them.

The guard who was dragging the Xinli broker to pat the door also waited for an opportunity to turn around and gestured to Wumeng.

There was no abnormality in the hospital.

From this point of view, Jiangyang Avenue, who had made an appointment with him, seemed to be really here to discuss business, and he did not arrange a Hongmen banquet to entertain guests.

"Meng Chun'er, I have met the young master."

While thinking about it, a graceful voice suddenly sounded. Wu Meng looked at him in a slight look, but saw a woman with white skin and thin waist walking out of the door. She saluted him gracefully, and then extended her arms and smiled:

"Young Master, please."
