253 Head-to-head confrontation

The young man in white glanced at Mu Liang, clasped his fists and said respectfully, "It turns out to be the Fourth Miss Nalan."

"It seems to me that the shopkeeper of Yizhen Fengyunzhai knows the capital very well." Mu Liang's tone was light, and there was no hint of emotion or anger, but there was a cold and clear aura that made people shudder.

The young man in white said, neither humble nor arrogant, "I have long admired the name of Fourth Young Lady. Who in the whole of Kyoto doesn't know Fourth Young Lady now?" The young man in white had a very sophisticated tone, which was not consistent with his age.

When his eyes fell on the luminous pearls presented by Feifeng, the young man in white was slightly startled, and a doubtful light flashed in his eyes. This pink luminous pearl is rare, and taking out four at one time is even rarer. The four young men in white all

He is an expert in appreciating rare treasures. With just one glance, he could tell that this night pearl was of great value. He accepted it immediately without saying anything. He made a gesture of invitation, indicating that Mu Liang could stand by the iron pot set up nearby.

Make soup

There are all kinds of ingredients on the side, the water in the iron pot is already boiling, and the firewood underneath is crackling. Everyone is waiting with bated breath to see how Mu Liang will make this salty soup.

Mu Liang's clear eyes glanced at the iron pot in front of him, and just scooped out a spoonful of hot water from it. He picked up two spoons, and when his back was turned to everyone, he sprinkled a handful of salt on one spoon and put the salted spoon on it.

Bake it on the firewood underground, wait until the salt particles on it are dried, then turn around and put a bowl of white water on the table

The young man in white looked at Mu Liang in confusion, and then waved the two people behind him to come forward. There were two porcelain spoons next to the small bowl of hot water. At first glance, the two spoons were exactly the same, because there were complicated patterns on them.

Therefore, there is no trace of a thin layer of dried salt particles.

When the two young men in white came forward and picked up a spoon, one of them was ready to drink. The people onlookers stretched their necks and couldn't help talking.

"Isn't this just a bowl of boiling water? What's going on?"

"Alas! The Fourth Miss is probably going to make a fool of herself this time! She doesn't have such a big head, so she shouldn't wear such a big hat!"

The people watching were talking to each other, half of them shook their heads frequently, and the other half were infatuated with Mu Liang. Their faces were full of anxiety at this moment. They stood on tiptoes and looked at the two young men in white to see if they had any problems.

what reaction

The two boys in white each scooped up a ladle of soup, and Mu Liang deliberately let the one with the uncooked ladle drink first.

"It's tasteless! It's just water." The boy in white finished drinking and said coldly.

There was a lot of discussion among the crowd, and the eyes looking at Mu Liang were even more worried and confused.

As the second boy put the spoon into his mouth, some people had already begun to shake their heads and prepared to go back, but they heard the boy spit out one word clearly:

"Salty and bitter!"

"Ah!! How...how is this possible??"

"It's salty, it's salty! That person says it's salty!"

"Hey! Don't tell me, this Fourth Miss Nalan is... really amazing! How did she do this!"

The crowd of onlookers was about to boil. The young man in white, who was headed by him, nodded slightly at Mu Liang, then clasped his fists and said, "I admire the Fourth Miss for her quick thinking and her superior strategy! Please invite the Fourth Miss to go in and pick out a gift!"

After the young man in white finished speaking, the crowd once again let out a series of shocking sounds. This exotic treasure Fengyunzhai is filled with treasures. There are hundreds of luminous pearls the size of pigeon eggs alone, not to mention other dazzling jade. If ordinary people walk in,

They will all be spoiled for choice.

Mu Liang glanced at the boy in white and said calmly, "In your eyes, what is the most valuable thing here?"

The young man in white seemed not surprised at all that Mu Liang would ask this question, but everyone likes to be the best. It seems that the fourth Miss Nalan is not immune to this.

The young man in white had a calm expression and raised his hand to point to a golden longevity peach placed in the center of the room. The longevity peach was made of pure gold and surrounded by one hundred and eight rubies of even size. The base of the longevity peach was made of sapphire, which was noble.

Gold, dazzling red, mysterious blue, the three most ever-changing colors are created and used vividly. Just one look at it will make you feel dazzling and beautiful.

Mu Liang nodded repeatedly, smiled and said, "Very good then..."

Just when the young man in white was about to tell the people behind him to bring Shoudao out, Mu Liang's slender fingers pointed slightly, pointing at a seemingly inconspicuous long sword in the corner beside the young man. This long sword must have been some years old.

, the sword body is full of traces of age erosion, and the emerald gem on the hilt has also been severely worn.

After hearing Mu Liang's request, the boy in white changed his face slightly and found it difficult to adapt to Mu Liang's sudden change.

"Ah...Miss, why do you want that broken sword?" Feifeng looked at Mu Liang with a puzzled look on his face.

"My lady likes Feifeng, go in and get it." Mu Liang said lightly, his cold eyes lightly swept over the pale boy in white, and a slight smile in his eyes added a provocative meaning.

"Fourth Miss...this long sword...don't you like the golden longevity peach?" The young man in white's face became paler, and his tone was not as clear and moist as before, but with a trace of inexplicable embarrassment and nervousness.

Seeing this, Mu Liang smiled coldly and said, "What? This young master wants to tell me that your shopkeeper's words don't mean what he says? In that case, don't talk nonsense. I will report it to the official and keep it for you.

The government must solve the crime of fraud in Fengyunzhai, a rare treasure!"

As soon as Mu Liang finished speaking, he immediately received support from the people watching. Many of them had lost money because they failed to answer the question. They were all waiting here holding back their energy, just to see such an embarrassing question.

, is there anyone who can solve it?

"We all support Miss Fourth! Charge him with fraud!"

"Yes! Let you shopkeepers get out of here! How can you go back on your promise to Fourth Miss Nalan? How can this emperor allow you to deceive everyone again?"

"That's right! If Miss Fourth is the reporter, we will all be witnesses! Just now, one of them said it was bland and the other said it was salty and bitter!!"

The people who were watching were talking louder and louder. Mu Liang looked at everyone and said calmly, "Thank you all for being willing to testify for Mu Liang. Mu Liang is very grateful."

Mu Liang's tone was clear and calm, which was in sharp contrast to the young man in white who was dripping with cold sweat. He didn't expect that the fourth Miss Nalan was really powerful. The young master told him not to underestimate her before, but he didn't take her seriously at all.

Unexpectedly, she was such a knowledgeable person, and the first treasure she ordered was this long sword passed down by the young master! What... what should he do? If he couldn't stand the young master's sword, how would he face it when he went back?

To the young master! It’s better to just hit him and die here!

At this time, another young man beside the young man winked secretly at him. That look clearly told him that the young master meant that Fourth Miss Nalan would give it to her if she liked it!

The young man in white was slightly startled, and a look of surprise flashed across his face. The young master actually agreed? This...

Originally, the long sword was placed here because it was expected that no one would be able to answer these four questions, so it was boldly placed in the house. But now it was taken away easily by Fourth Miss Nalan!

Although the young man in white was reluctant to leave, in front of so many people and under the instructions of the young master, he could only move out of the way with an unwilling and depressed expression, and watched helplessly as Feifeng took away the long sword.

Feifeng turned around and handed the long sword to Mu Liang with both hands, "Miss!"

"Pull it out!" Mu Liang commanded in a deep voice. Feifeng got the order, but couldn't pull it out three times. Seeing this, Bai Yi took a step forward, took the long sword from Feifeng's hand, and used all his strength.

Unsheath the long sword

For a moment, there was an awe-inspiring cold light, and the dazzling cold light of the cold weapon suddenly filled the entire street. The sword's body was shining brightly, and the young man in white blew a strand of hair from his body onto the long sword. The hair immediately split into two parts, protecting the edge of the sword.

It can be sharpened and cut off by blowing!

"Miss! This is a treasure!" Feifeng hurriedly snatched the sword back and handed it to Mu Liang with excitement on his face.

Mu Liang looked at Feifeng, but did not take it, but said casually, "Feifeng, this sword is for you. How can you protect me without a suitable weapon?"

"Miss!" Feifeng looked at Mu Liang in shock. She didn't expect that the young lady actually asked for it for her. Before, she thought that the young lady was at a loss for choosing this long sword. In fact, the young lady had a sharp eye for pearls.

"Silly girl, remember, you can't just take everything at face value! The glamorous appearance does not represent his true talent and learning! Being down-to-earth is the only criterion for life!"

"You're right, Miss Fourth!"

"Yes! What a profound insight into the human heart! I'm afraid even people who have studied for decades may not be able to understand this truth!"

"This fourth young lady is so kind to the maids around her! She didn't need anything at such a great opportunity, but actually gave the maid a sword as sharp as iron as clay! Where can I find such a master!"

The crowd was talking a lot, Feifeng held the sword in his arms, and nodded solemnly towards Makuliang. He felt guilty that he had not guessed the thoughts of his young lady before. He did not expect that for such a precious opportunity, the lady actually chose a treasure for him.

The young man in white looked at the sword in Feifeng's arms and looked up at the sky. If only the young master were by his side right now, he would be hugging the young master's thigh and crying. He would never dare to look down on a woman again.

"Master, where's the second question?" Mu Liang glanced at the sad-looking young man in white and sneered.

Do you think she doesn't know the goods? If she puts such a big golden longevity peach in it, she will be interested in it? The name of this store is Yi Zhen Fengyun Zhai. Of course, she is looking for rare treasures, treasures that can cause changes in the world.

!Gold? How much she wants in the future is not how much she will have!

Because no one can answer the first question, and no one has even heard of the second question.

At this moment, there was a loud commotion behind the crowd. The person riding the horse was none other than Tuobo Kun's personal bodyguard Cang Yue.

As soon as Cang Yue passed through the crowd, she saw Mu Liang standing in the crowd. The maid behind her was still holding a sword. Cang Yue's eyes flashed, and she hurriedly turned around and came to Tuobo Kun's side.

"Wang, the front is Yizhen Fengyunzhai, but... the fourth lady is there, and the fourth lady seems to have answered the question correctly. Her maid is holding a long sword, which should be a treasure selected from Fengyunzhai."

After Cang Yue finished speaking, Tuobo Kun's slightly pale face flashed with a slight fluctuation, but finally he sighed softly and prepared to turn his horse back.

Since this little woman doesn't want to see him, if he passes by, wouldn't it cause her unhappiness again! She was able to take her to the woods without killing him yesterday, which is already a big change.

She must not act too hastily

"Cang Yue, take a detour and go back." As soon as Tuobo Kun finished speaking, a guard of honor walked slowly down the street on the other side. The crimson carriage was magnificent and luxurious, with a glazed roof, walls wrapped in twelve layers of gauze, and wheels of the carriage.

Four phalaenopsis orchids are tied up with crimson gauze. From a distance, the gauze is graceful, as if it comes from the Tianshan Mountains. It feels ethereal, noble, luxurious and magnificent.

As soon as Tuobo Kun saw the honor guard approaching, his eyes darkened, and the tall figure riding on horseback instantly shuddered.

"Wang, I belong to Miss Kuan'er..."

"I know" Tuobo Kun interrupted Cang Yue's words coldly, the expression on his face was three points colder than before.

The onlookers gave way to Rouge Button's motorcade. As the carriage slowly stopped, Rouge Button, who was wearing a long crimson gauze dress, supported by a maid, took small steps and slowly walked toward Tuobo Kun.

Come

"King, are you also coming to Yizhen Fengyunzhai?" Yan Zhikou opened her mouth, her voice was gentle to the core, and instantly numbed the hearts of the people present.

Everyone came back to their senses and realized that Tuo Bo Kun had also arrived. They all looked at Mu Liang who was standing at the door of Yizhen Fengyunzhai. They remembered Tuo Bo Kun's use of the fourth lady of the Nalan family a while ago, and now this Rouge Button was related to the King of Liao.

With their familiar relationship, could it be that what the Liao King really wanted to protect was not Xi Lanshan, but Rouge Button?

After all, in the entire Northern Liao, no woman dared to take the initiative to say hello to the King of Liao. This Yan Zhikuo was born in the Xueyuan tribe. She has spoken to the King of Liao several times since entering the city. What is she if he is not an acquaintance?

The people all cast sympathetic eyes towards Mu Liang
