Chapter 841: Lead the snake out of the hole
The itinerary of the tasting meeting was quite successful. Xi Yunfei got about twenty black slaves and took out three boxes of jadeite.
Rejecting Hou Junji's invitation to the banquet, Xi Yunfei took the two girls in Mu Zi to return to the princess's mansion directly.
On the way, Xi Yunfei received a communication request from Zhen Youcai.
From the conversation, I learned that those people from Piao directly bought a large number of mosquito coils at the Chamber of Commerce.
After learning about this, Xi Yunfei shook his head with some amusement. The three boxes of top-quality jade were used to exchange for mosquito coils. The people of the Piao Kingdom were really reckless, but they didn't count on their own making money. After praising Zhen Youcai, they hung up the communication.
In the back seat of the car, Mu Ziyi and Yu Xianglan were playing with a few jade pieces seriously. Women were born with no resistance to these shiny things, especially these jade pieces were all the best among the best.
"Langjun, do you think this jade is the crystal of glass and jade? It belongs to the group of jade and has the transparent texture of glass."
Mu Ziyi held an jade bracelet and looked at it in the sun with her love. She took the bracelet back and gave it to Princess Pingyang, because Xi Yunfei said that this kind of bracelet will only look good if worn by older women.
Upon hearing this, Xi Yunfei shook his head with a smile and said, "I can't say this, but whether it is jade or jade, it is born after hundreds of millions of years. Maybe, it is really a combination of glass and jade as you said."
"By the way, after I'll send you back later, I'll have to go out if I have something to do."
As soon as Xi Yunfei finished speaking, Mu Ziyi frowned and asked, "What are you going to do again? Isn't there a godmother staring at Luolingjian?"
A trace of eloquence flashed in Xi Yunfei's eyes, and he said without looking back: "I'll go to Pingkangfang to see the progress of the demolition."
When Mu Ziyi heard this, she nodded without any doubt. She glanced at Yu Xianglan sitting next to her, reached out and patted the back of the other party's hand, and invited her, "Then let Sister Yu accompany me. I'll let the kitchen make some pastries, and let's cook tea and enjoy the ginkgo."

After Xi Yunfei sent the two girls back to the princess's mansion, the old car turned around and went south and turned into Pingkangfang.
At the entrance of the shop, many donkey carts were in and out. The loaded donkey carts were a little overwhelmed and pulled the dismantled ragged wood to transport it to the papermaking workshop outside the city.
In the past, these garbage were dumped directly outside the city, but now the royal papermaking workshop waste is very environmentally friendly.
Xi Yunfei was walking around the uninhabited street and finally stopped directly at the door of a dilapidated mansion.
The car had just stopped, and two men in black in the house ran out of it.
One of them ran to the car and helped Xi Yunfei open the door.
Xi Yunfei glanced at him and his eyes were exposed all over his body. Judging from the temperament of his eyebrows and eyes, he should be a girl.
"Seventeen, I've seen the little master!"
After hearing her voice, Xi Yunfei confirmed his guess, nodded slightly, and asked, "Where is my father and my elder brother?"
Seventeen closed the car door and replied: "The master and the old master are in the backyard."
"Yeah, lead the way..."
Under the leadership of Shiqi, Xi Yunfei walked around the house for about a cup of tea. The closer he was to the backyard, the more complete the surrounding buildings and plants became. Obviously, because of the inhabited people, they had been specially repaired.
When they saw Xi Kaishan and Xi Junmai, they were teaching a few children martial arts in the yard.
Xi Kaishan was the first to see Xi Yunfei, nodded slightly to him, and did not stop the teaching action.
However, Xi Junmai, when he saw his second brother who had not seen for a long time, came up excitedly and first looked at Xi Yunfei.
He smiled and said, "I haven't seen you for two months. You guy seems to have grown taller, and it's almost up to my chin."
Xi Yunfei gave him an angrily glance. Of course, because of the difference in height, it looked almost the same as looking upward, so this roll of eyes turned pale.
Xi Junmai smiled and pulled Xi Yunfei into the inner room. As soon as the two brothers sat down, his father Xi Kaishan followed him in.
Xi Junmai looked at each other with his father and said to Xi Yunfei with a serious expression: "We have investigated all the things clearly. That group of people should be the remnants of Goguryeo. One of them seems to be a leader and has many hidden threads in the Chang'an branch."
Xi Yunfei came here specially to understand what he was targeted. Hearing this, he frowned and said, "These Goguryeo people are really bold. They actually came to Chang'an to assassinate me?"
Xi Junmai nodded and said in a deep voice: "Their actions are quite hidden. They must not dare to assassinate you openly, so they came up with dirty tricks to use beauty to seduce you. However, you didn't take the woman to heart at all, so they exposed their feet and let us find their hiding place."
As he said that, Xi Junmai took out a distribution map of Chang'an. On the map, there was a red dot marked somewhere in the West City.
"It's here that the owner of the medicinal material shop is also a Goguryeo, but the files registered in the yamen show that the owner is from Cangzhou. It can be seen that these Goguryeo people have already hidden their names and have many secrets in the Tang Dynasty. When I think of someone around us, I feel so nervous."
Xi Kaishan, who was silent next to him, smiled and comforted: "This kind of thing is normal. Not only the Goguryeo people did this. In order to differentiate the East and West Turks, Emperor Wen of Sui sent hundreds of people to sneak into the enemy country. At the most glorious time, nearly 20% of the officials in the Turkic Khan Court were us Han people, and it was their efforts that laid the foundation for the division of the Turkic Turks."
Xi Yunfei glanced at his father. He already knew Xi Kaishan's work before. In the first year of Wude, the world was in chaos. Xi Kaishan led his family south to survive. He met Li Jiancheng, who was already the crown prince at the time, and recruited him for it.
For the safety of his family, Xi Kaishan had no choice but to hand over his family to Wei Zheng, who also served Li Jiancheng at the time. He sent people to Jingyang County, Chang'an, and settled in Wei Zheng's village and became a villager in Wei's house.
Before Xuanwu Gate, Li Jiancheng had actually learned about Li Shimin's rebellion plan from Xi Kaishan, but what Xi Kaishan did not expect was that when Li Yuanji retreated, he did not turn around and leave as the original plan, but stopped and shot three arrows at Li Shimin.
It was the delay of these three arrows that Li Shimin found an opportunity to shoot Li Jiancheng, who was concerned about the safety of his third brother and turned around to save him, and if this were not the case, it would be not certain who would have lived or died in the Xuanwu Gate Incident.
Later, for the safety of his family, many officials in the East Palace succumbed to Li Shimin's tyranny, including Xi Kaishan, who collected intelligence for Li Jiancheng...
Feeling Xi Yunfei's gaze, Xi Kaishan looked at him and said with a smile: "Now, Erlang will help us act in a play together and cooperate with us to lead the snake out of the hole. By then, all the remnants may be wiped out."
Xi Yunfei was stunned when he heard this and said in confusion: "How do I want me to cooperate?"
Xi Kaishan's big hand on the table beat the table rhythmically and said, "In the auction tomorrow, you will directly take the Goguryeo female slave. Don't worry, you have made arrangements for your father and will never put you in danger."
