Chapter 523 Knowing people, knowing faces, but not knowing hearts
After Ye Tantai was imprisoned, he took advantage of the shift change of the imperial guards to walk around the entire prison.
He used only a piece of wire to unlock all the locks.
But after asking around, I couldn't find any useful information.
Just as he came out of the last cell after questioning, he happened to meet General Xiao who came over after hearing that he had been arrested.
Ye Tantai had no time to react and could only stand where he was. Seeing that there was no point in escaping now, he pretended to be stupid and said: "General Xiao is such a coincidence, you also come to the prison for a walk?"
General Xiao coughed twice in embarrassment, turned around and said seriously: "You all, go out first! I didn't see anything just now, did you hear me?"
"Yes!" The Imperial Guards took the order and left.
Ye Tantai didn't know what kind of medicine he was selling in his gourd, so he didn't say anything, but silently touched the dagger hidden in his waist.
"I brought your things for you," General Xiao returned Ye Tantai's sword to him. "Not everyone can come to the prison of the Imperial Guard. Let's forget about today's matter."
"Why did General Xiao do this?" Ye Tantai stopped him as he was about to leave.
The general of a country actually defended the prince of an enemy country who tried to break into the prison. Xiao Guoliang was afraid that he would be beheaded if he told this.
Ye Tantai had only one answer in his mind.
He wants something from himself.
The Xiao family is a family of Beiyuan generals, but Xiao Guoliang has no descendants in his generation. He is already very old. In order to prevent the Xiao family's reputation from generation to generation from being overshadowed by the glory of the four major families, he wants to become famous in the War of the Three Kingdoms.
As for Ye Tantai's future king of Nanye, if he pleases Ye Tantai now, maybe the two of them will have a chance to cooperate on the battlefield in the future.
General Xiao did not answer him, only leaving one sentence: "King Yu Nan should leave as soon as possible."
Ye Tantai frowned, wondering what this man was planning in his mind.
After leaving the training camp, Ye Tantai hurried back to the Princess's Mansion.
Su Qingcheng returned home ahead of him. After exchanging information about today, the two decided to go to the downtown street to look for the drug seller.
On the carriage, Su Qingcheng was also thinking about what General Xiao had done.
"It shouldn't be. The Xiao family is the empress's confidant and is treated as the fifth family by the world." Su Qingcheng was puzzled.
Ye Tantai also said: "Perhaps you know the person but not the heart."
"I'm afraid there's something hidden in this. Have you and General Xiao known each other before? I remember that he recognized you in the busy street that day." Su Qingcheng thought of something.
Ye Tantai helped Su Qingcheng put on the life-saving bracelets and headdresses, but did not take this matter to heart: "I don't know, maybe, you should be more careful with the Xiao family."
"I know."
Only then did Su Qingcheng realize that she and Ye Tantai were already two opposing people in terms of blood.
In order to avoid alerting others, the two went on a very low-key trip. Even the guards only brought Wu Ya and Fu Yi with them.
Following the path pointed by the man from Yangmingcheng, they came to the second intersection.
But there are no vendors selling voice-changing pills here.
"Can he lie to others?" Ye Tantai asked.
Su Qingcheng thought for a moment and said, "He has no reason to lie to me. Let's look for it again."
Several people split up and searched in various alleys in the busy street.
Ye Tantai was worried about Su Qingcheng and acted with her.
The two of them walked through most of the downtown streets and found nothing. All they sold were ordinary items.
"Hey, aren't you...that young lady that day?"
Su Qingcheng was stopped by someone, and the two of them turned around and saw that it was the owner of the teahouse where she was looking for the storyteller that day.
"Yes, long time no see. How is the teahouse business?" Su Qingcheng smiled.
"Oh, stop talking. Since Mr. Storyteller left, the business has been worse than ever. I'm planning to sell the teahouse and start another business." The teahouse owner complained endlessly.
Su Qingcheng had an idea and pulled the teahouse owner to an alley and said, "Boss, I want to ask you something."
The boss blinked and said, "What's the matter?"
She handed over a bag of broken silver and said, "Is there anything in the market that can change people's voices? You know that my young lady has a special status and it is difficult for her to come forward for many things."
The teahouse owner almost burst out laughing and held on to the bag of money: "Oh, you asked the right person."
Ye Tantai tugged on Su Qingcheng's sleeve and asked in a low voice: "Is he trustworthy?"
Su Qingcheng gave him a reassuring look.
The teahouse owner said mysteriously: "This is a bustling city. Everyone is there. Your young lady is a noble person. She doesn't know some things. This place is different after midnight."
Su Qingcheng asked curiously: "What do you mean?"
"I only said this because the girl has some friendship with me. The busy street in Zishi is the black market of Diqiu. Some people who cannot appear during the day will be active at this time."
There was something strange in Ye Tantai's eyes.
Even the Shadow Guards didn't know about this.
Seeing Su Qingcheng's surprised look, he must have known that the four envoys were also unaware.
No wonder he couldn't find out where in Beiyuan the leftists from the Paradise Gate were, no matter how hard he searched, it seemed like they were probably right here!
Su Qingcheng obviously thought of this as well. She asked, "I wonder if the boss's teahouse is still open? I want to wait until midnight."
The teahouse owner excitedly led the two of them over: "Come on, come on, two distinguished guests, come this way."
Ye Tantai looked at her and nodded.
He left many marks along the way, and Fu Yi and Crow rushed over after seeing them.
The group sat in the teahouse until midnight.
Sure enough, the costumes of the people on the street gradually changed. Su Qingcheng really didn't expect that the busy street she had been to several times would look like this.
"VIPs, you can go out and look for her now. I've asked the girl about it. It's the second intersection on the left." The teahouse owner said.
It’s the same as what the guy from Yangmingcheng said.
It seemed that it was not that she was deceived or that the man ran away, but that she went at the wrong time.
The four of them looked at each other and headed back to that place.
This alley is very small, with only one vendor.
Su Qingcheng saw the unusual medicine on his stall at a glance, and whispered: "Wu Ya and Fu Yi, each blocked an exit."
She and Ye Tantai walked into the alley, stopped in front of a vendor, picked up a bottle of green potion, and said, "How do you sell this?"
"Twelve taels," the boss said.
He never even raised his head from beginning to end.
"Okay, I want it." Su Qingcheng said cheerfully.
The boss immediately raised his head, wanting to see who was so generous.
"The rules of the city are, if you agree, you can't go back on it."
Su Qingcheng handed over the twenty taels of silver and said, "I also want to buy something from the boss."
"what?"
"Voice-changing pills."
The boss's face suddenly changed, and he ran away as soon as he thought of something.
He ran to the left and was blocked by Fu Yi, and ran to the right and was blocked by Wu Ya. In the end, he had no choice but to return to Su Qingcheng.
