Dressed As the Deadly Opponent of the Male Protagonist of the Imperial Examination
Chapter 22: Two lunatics
"What's wrong." Tang Hang looked over.
"Look at this, only three counties, Chenxian, Yongxian, and Ding'an are written. But what Xu's family holds in their hands should be the private salt markets of the 13 states and counties in the south of the Yangtze River!" Pei Yunxiao pointed to map.
"There are only three wooden plaques for lifting salt." Tang Heng also immediately found the problem: "Did we not find anything else?"
Pei Yunxiao was full of doubts, but could not start.
"It's too late, put these back. It's not easy to find these."
Tang Hang restored the bookcase to its original state and put it back on the shelf.
"It's almost dawn, we have to go back to the jail quickly, or it will be bad if we are found out."
The two sneaked out of the study, followed the route in memory, and returned to the water prison.
As soon as he arrived at the door of the water prison, Jinnian came out.
"My son, Jinhe has sent a letter, and Xu Mu has just returned to the manor."
"Good risk!" Pei Yunxiao had a lingering fear: "When Jinhe comes back, let's leave here and find a way to enter Zhezhou City."
"Will Xu Mu be alarmed?" Jinnian worried.
"A Chen Liniang can run away without the strength of a chicken. Does he still want to trap two big men?" Pei Yunxiao complained.
"My son, Chen Liniang didn't come in this Zhuangzi at all..." Jinnian reminded in a low voice.
"..." Pei Yunxiao scratched his head: "Anyway, we have to go anyway, no matter what method is used. They just traded a deal, and they won't move for a while, even if they are suspicious, they can't do anything."
"The Xu family's mansion is in Zhezhou, we have to find a way to go in and take a look."
"Now it can almost be calculated, the process of their transaction. First, Fenyanghou took a large amount of salt from the official family, and then transported it to Zhezhou. Then the salt gang took the money, and Xu Mu used the salt wood. The plaque distributes the salt to various salt gangs. After the salt gang is handed, the salt is transferred to the city and sold at high prices in the city."
"In this way, official salt has become private salt. No one in the 13 prefectures and counties in the south of the Yangtze River will want to eat cheap official salt. As for Jinhe, the salt name of Zhezhou is also close to the prefectural government. It is estimated that Zhezhou and Qingshan counties Similarly, the governor is theirs..."
Pei Yunxiao was analyzing, Jinnian suddenly made a silent gesture.
"somebody is coming!"
Pei Yunxiao grabbed Tang Hang: "Go back to the prison!"
The two opened the cell door and jumped into the water cell. At this time, the water in the water cell had gone to the calf after a night. As soon as Pei Yunxiao entered the water, she shuddered immediately.
At the same time, the outside Jinnian flashed out and hid again.
After a while, a servant-like man walked over from the intersection and stopped at the door of the water cell.
He looked around, did not see the person who was supposed to be the guard, and couldn't help but whisper. But when he thought of the master's order, he didn't dare to delay, so he squatted down and opened the prison door.
"Hey! You, grandpa summoned!" The servant pointed at Pei Yunxiao, and then at the prison door, not knowing which mechanism was pressed, a rope ladder was slowly lowered.
Tang Hang looked at Pei Yunxiao worriedly, clasped her shoulders, and wanted to keep her from leaving.
Pei Yunxiao shook his head, gave him a reassuring look, took a deep breath, and then climbed up with his hands and feet.
As soon as he came up, the servant looked at her in a daze for a long time, his face almost filled with astonishment at her appearance. After a while, he recovered and said in a low voice: "The son has ordered you to see him after changing your clothes."
Of course Pei Yunxiao couldn't change clothes.
She sneered, showing disdain: "No, Mr. Xu doesn't pick it. Why should I bother?"
With that, she tucked up the hem of her wet clothes, took a step and walked forward.
Otherwise, Xu Mu played pretty flowery, there are no restrictions on men and women, and he is not afraid of meat and vegetables.
The servant Xu hadn't seen such a tough prisoner before, staring at the same place, and hadn't followed for a long time.
Pei Yunxiao ignored him, anyway, she had just come from there, familiar with it, and just went by herself.
In the main hall, today's Xu Mu did not hug him with a lot of Mei Ji, but leaned on the soft couch alone.
He opened his neckline, revealing a weak, flat-like figure with no muscles, but he also had a narcissistic, sloppy expression on his face.
Pei Yunxiao only glanced at it, and felt hot eyes, and quickly moved his gaze away.
Xu Mu was also looking at Pei Yunxiao.
Xu Shi didn't sleep all night and suffered in the water jail. Pei Yunxiao's face was a little tired. But Xu Mu was particularly obsessed with this sullen appearance. Without the young and mature, he was more young and immature at this age, which made people have an urge to treat it wantonly.
Immediately afterwards, Xu Mu's gaze shifted to the hem of Pei Yunxiao's soaked robe. Because of water absorption, the light robe is now tightly wrapping her lower body, faintly showing her two slender and well-proportioned legs.
Xu Mu's throat rolled, and his heart gradually became hot.
He has seen a lot of beautiful women, but it is the first time he has seen such a stunner boy. Xu Mu couldn't wait to taste this special taste.
Then Xu Mu looked at the servant who was waiting: "Let you take him to change clothes, what is it called? Go get the punishment."
The servant shook and looked at Pei Yunxiao as if asking for help.
And Xu Mu also looked over with a little interest, as if waiting for Pei Yunxiao to speak, and then made some unreasonable request.
He has tried this routine repeatedly.
However, Pei Yunxiao just rolled his eyes silently in his heart, unmoved.
What to look at? What catches your eyes? Does she look like the Virgin Mary?
How can she rush to intercede for a tiger who is a tiger? Just get it right.
Seeing that Pei Yunxiao did not respond, Xu Mu seemed a little disappointed. He waved his finger at the servant and cursed, "Hurry up!"
The servants retreated a little desperately.
Xu Mu then looked at Pei Yunxiao: "What's the name of the little thing?"
...Little thing, you are the little thing! Your whole family are small things! Pei Yunxiao scolded in her heart.
It's a pity that she can't reveal her identity now. Anyway, she had to clarify the collusion between the Xu family and the Yan Gang first.
"I'm asking you something." When Xu Mu saw that Pei Yunxiao didn't answer, he asked patiently.
Pei Yunxiao deliberately showed a somewhat loyal and unyielding expression: "If you want to kill, you have to pluck, just listen and respect."
Doesn't Xu Mu like to play this kind of bridge? She played with him.
Xu Mu sighed when he heard the words, stretched out a finger and shook: "Human, you must know the current affairs. You know, what happened to the people who didn't want to listen to me in the past?"
Pei Yunxiao struck her neck without saying a word.
Xu Mu asked and replied: "You don't think that it's enough for you to survive the water prison? Naive. I will throw them into the Thousand Snake Cave, into the White Tiger Cave, that screaming scream...tsk."
"Why, do you want to try?"
In no mood.
But when the case is over, you can try it. Pei Yunxiao wrote Xu Mu again in a small notebook.
Then, Pei Yunxiao showed some fear at the right time, but in Xu Mu's eyes, he was particularly proud.
"Now, tell me what your name is."
"Jia Yi." Pei Yunxiao spit out two words.
"Hahaha," Xu Mu laughed madly: "Then is your brother called Jia Ren? It's kind of benevolent, it's interesting, hahahaha!"
This Xu Mu is really a man of madness. Pei Yunxiao thought about it a few times.
The more such a person, the more ruthless the means. No wonder the head of the Xu family entrusted such a big deal to Xu Mu. Maybe Xu Mu is the real head of the Xu family!
"Jia Yi, come here." Xu Mu waved.
Pei Yunxiao turned a blind eye.
Xu Mu was a little angry: "Don't take an inch!"
Continue to ignore it.
Xu Mu abruptly got up, took a big step, snatched Pei Yunxiao close, and grabbed her neck with his right hand.
Pei Yunxiao's breathing immediately stagnated, and he was forced to raise his head, trying to break free from his shackles and regain sufficient air.
At this moment, she didn't think of anything, except that her menswear collar was high enough to not let Xu Mu feel anything.
If she was discovered by him, whether she could escape today is another question, but Xu Mu is bound to die. In that way, it would be difficult for her to investigate the salt smuggling case again.
"Amu, what are you doing?"
Just when Pei Yunxiao almost thought he was about to suffocate to death, a surprised female voice rang.
Xu Mu turned his head: "Auntie?" The strength in his hand finally loosened.
Pei Yunxiao backed up a few steps, sat down on the ground, covered his throat and breathed, looking at the woman who came in.
Xu Zi, Xu Mu's little aunt. There are countless male pets in the original book, and a fancy to the male lead's woman. Unscrupulously, if you don't get it, you will destroy it, and when you kill the male lead, you will be killed by the male lead.
Absolutely! Xu Jiaran is all crazy!
When Xu Zi came, Pei Yunxiao felt that his situation was getting worse.
Sure enough, Xu Zi glanced at Pei Yunxiao and said, "Amu, let me play for two days." Her tone seemed to be asking for an insignificant toy.
"This..." Xu Mu hadn't succeeded yet, a little reluctant.
"Don't worry, I'll pay you back in two days." Xu Zi promised.
Xu Mu smiled and said, "Since Auntie likes it, she can take it away."
With permission, Xu Zi was somewhat satisfied, and then she started talking about her intentions: "Amu, did you pick up the goods last night?"
Xu Mu's eyes flashed: "Auntie asked what is this?"
"Can't I ask?" Xu Zi sat down on the chair closest to Pei Yunxiao, her slender green onion fingers stretched out to Pei Yunxiao's cheek, and she said, "I can't control how ridiculous you are here. But don’t forget, you are not yours alone."
Pei Yunxiao on the ground avoided Xu Zi's hand in disgust, but what she thought in her heart was that the two aunts and nephews didn't seem to treat themselves as individuals, and they just spoke in front of them in such a grand manner.
I am afraid that I am confident that the Xu family has taken control of Zhezhou, even if she knows something, she can't help them!
Xu Mu's face sank after hearing this: "What do you mean by Auntie?"
Xu Zi leaned back in her chair and looked at Xu Mu with a smile but a smile: "What's the point of me? Just to remind A Mu, you are cool and comfortable here, but there is still a serious Xu Mansion in Zhezhou. , In the mansion... there is also A Rong!"
"At the beginning, your father handed the salt affairs of Zhezhou to you and A Rong separately, saying that whoever did a good job can inherit the Xu family. A Rong has married a daughter of the He family, 13 prefectures and counties, and six places have fallen into He handed it. And you...what are the three lands earned by being the eldest son?"
