Chapter 75 Price
"The reason why Student Song was taken away and asked you not to report to the official..."
Wu Shiqi thought for a while and asked, "Does student Song often go to Pingkangfang during this period?"
"You mean..."
"You Du know?"
Two classmates from Benzhou spoke in unison, and saw Li Ang’s face showing confusion, he quickly explained.
During this period, Song Shaoyuan often went to Lianhua Building in Pingkangfang. At first, everyone thought he was coming to Chang'an and wanted to see more of the world.
But now looking back, he seemed to be getting too close to that Youduzhi?
"That Youdu knows that he is one of the most popular young men in Lianhualou."
Yang Yu's eyes flashed and said, "Shao Yuan was taken away, probably because of this."
Tsk.
Li Ang pressed his forehead helplessly. When he went to Lianhualou, he felt that Song Shaoyuan looked at You Duzhi's eyes were not right.
"We have to find a way to solve this."
Li Ang thought for a moment. Aunt Song and his family were as good as a family. They were half of Li Ang’s aunt. There were still gold pieces from Aunt Song hidden in Li Ang’s clothes. Moreover, when he left, he promised Aunt Song that he would bring Song Shaoyuan back intact.
"Brother Yang,"
Li Ang bowed and asked Yang Yu, "It's probably the first time (1:00 p.m.). If I haven't come back yet after Shen Zheng (4:00 p.m.), you can go to the Duke Yan's Mansion in Anxingfang and say I'm in some trouble."
"Ah? OK..."
Yang Yu hesitated and said, "Risheng, what are you going to do?"
"Bring Brother Song and that You Duzhi back."
Li Ang smiled helplessly and borrowed a horse from Yang Yu, but did not ask Wu Shiqi to lead the way to Pingkangfang to find Jiao Cheng.
Instead, I went to Yiningfang first and found Cheng Juxiu's classmate, Ding Jingshan.
Unfortunately, after Li Ang requested a notice, the father-in-law of the Ding Mansion said that Ding Jingshan had crossed the wall from the Secretariat a few days ago and was drunk when he returned home.
His father was furious and locked him up in the basement of the Secretariat. He was not allowed to come out without completing the historical records of Zhou State, and no one was allowed to contact him.
Ding Jingshan had to study books alone in the basement. With his ability and his cultivation level in the first realm of Xunyun, he could get out, but it would take at least four or five days.
By then, the daylily will be cold.
"Li Family Dalang, what should we do now?"
After leaving Ding Mansion, Wu Shiqi asked.
"Please take me to Pingkangfang."
Li Ang squinted his eyes and said, "I'll go and meet that Jiao Cheng myself."
The two rode their horses to Pingkangfang. Wu Shiqi stopped in front of the house, jumped off the horse's back, threw the reins to the servants who came up, but did not go directly into any building.
Instead, he took Li Ang along the walls of Pingkangfang eastward, passed through the dense bamboo forest that seemed to have no road ahead, turned north, crossed the stream, entered the alley, and turned around, and finally came to a mediocre building.
The portal of the small building opened, and there were seven or eight tattooed men with flesh-faced faces sitting inside, playing entertainment toys called "Leaf Show" boredly, similar to playing cards.
Seeing Wu Shiqi approaching, a bald man frowned, put down the card, and stood up from the stool.
This man was wearing half-sleeved arms, with two arms exposed. The left arm was stabbed with "Isn't afraid of Jingzhao Yin" and the right arm was stabbed with "Isn't afraid of Yan King" and a cage bird was stabbed with on his forehead.
The bald man said in a bad tone: "Wu Shiqi? Why are you here?"
"Die Wu."
Wu Shiqi nodded to the other party, "I'm looking for Jiao Da."
"Look for Jiao Da? Are you worthy?"
The bald man known as Di Wu sneered, "If you wear the dog skin of a bad person, you will be the enemy..."
"It's not that I want to see you, it's this one."
Wu Shiqi turned slightly, revealing Li Ang behind him.
"What is he..."
"This year, the first student in the first exam in the academy, and the first student in the re-examination."
Wu Shiqi interrupted the other party's words and said in the other party's sudden squinting eyes: "Li Ang, Yizhou.
He wants to see Jiao Da."
“…”
Di Wu was silent for a moment, and his fingers and knuckles hit the table twice.
Other tattooed men at the same table stood up one after another, walked out of the house, and took out two long black scarves from their arms.
Wu Shiqi took the initiative to take a step forward and asked the other party to wear a long black scarf on his eyes.
Li Ang glanced at the cloth stained with unknown dirt, shook his head, and took out the thick white handkerchief woven by Chai Cuiqiao from his arms, "I'll do it myself."
The tattooed men looked at Di Wu, and after receiving the latter's nod, they also took a step back and let Li Ang wear a white handkerchief himself.
When the two of them were covered in their eyes, Di Wu asked his men to bring a carriage from the backyard and drove them along the path.
When the blindfold was taken off, Li Ang and Wu Shiqi had already arrived in the closed corridor of a pavilion, and the music and noisy voices could be heard below.
I don't know which part of the three songs.
Under the leadership of Di Wu, Wu Shiqi and Li Ang walked forward and came to a door of a house guarded by two tattooed men.
Wu Shiqi pushed the door and was about to enter, but was stopped by a man, "Only he can enter, you can wait outside."
“…”
Wu Shiqi narrowed his eyes slightly, and the other party did not take away the sword on his body, because the other party was sure to suppress all riots.
Jiao Cheng will always have at least two monk guards around him.
"It's okay, Brother Wu will wait outside for a while."
Li Ang raised his hand and told Wu Shiqi not to worry. He passed by the two tattooed men without changing his face and pushed open the door.
As soon as I entered the house, I smelled a fragrant tea fragrance.
I saw Song Shaoyuan and You Duzhi sitting on the couch, their hands tied behind them, their clothes were neat, their bodies were not injured, and there was no linen in their mouths, but they were a little nervous.
"Sunrise..."
Song Shaoyuan subconsciously wanted to stand up, but was stopped by Li Ang.
Li Ang looked at the third person in the room - the middle-aged man sitting cross-legged on the ground with his back to the door.
He was wearing brown clothes, with beards and a bamboo crutch on the floor beside his feet. He was holding a silver teapot on the coffee table and pouring himself a cup of tea.
Pick.
The sound of Go plays sounded in the corner, and they were the last two people in the room - two middle-aged men who played chess silently. They were equipped with long swords on their waists.
"You are the Li Ang of the Bangzhou?"
Sitting cross-legged on the ground, the bearded man named Jiao Cheng said casually, his voice low.
"yes."
Li Ang nodded and said calmly: "I want to know what the price will cost to take these two people away."
"cost?"
Jiao Cheng took a sip of tea, turned around slowly, and said calmly: "Li Xiaolangjun, you may not understand very much.
You Xiao is a woman raised from Lianhualou.
Lianhualou let her live in the best house, give her the most careful and good at serving others, and invite her the best teacher.
Teach her how to dance, teach her how to music, teach her what kind of charm is, and look at her with a look.
In the end, she was promoted to the highest position of everyone, making her an enviable object.
If your classmates can openly bid for You Xiao's combing or redeem her, then nothing will happen.
But when You Xiao had a strange thought and wanted to leave without complaining, the nature of the matter changed.
I am the head of Pingkangfang.
And in Pingkangfang, the biggest price is people's hearts."
