Try to rebel today

The emperor's unreasonable play of cards brought the court battle to an abrupt end.

All kinds of party struggles are meaningless, and now the most important thing is to recover the treasure!Whoever can recover the treasure will be the emperor of Chu, and he will ascend the throne within a month!

After the eldest prince and the four princes flirted with each other several times, they returned their attention, each summoned their subordinates, and asked how things were going.

Don't mention how lively the fourth prince got the new news, just talk about the eldest prince.

The eldest prince felt a little guilty for neglecting Zhou Yao recently.

There is no way, the fourth prince is provoking the court, if he doesn't return it, how will he gain a foothold in the future?Zhou Yao is indeed very smart, with a broad vision, and can think of unique solutions to many things, but he is a stranger after all, and he is not familiar with the court affairs of Chu State, so it is better for his staff who have served him for a long time.Only these people understand the big and small things, the specific planning, and the relationship between the court and the inside and outside.

Of course, with Zhou Yao's intelligence, Zhou Yao can straighten it out in a short period of time and play a huge role in the information he provides, but Zhou Yao is the eldest prince after all... He is somewhat taboo.

Zhou Yao must understand his behavior.

Before, he approached Zhou Yao with all kinds of considerations, which made Zhou Yao's status in the mansion rise. Zhou Yao was not very proud, but now, he is indifferent and far away. Everyone in the mansion is not as enthusiastic about Zhou Yao as before, and Zhou Yao is not sad either. Sad, whenever I see it, I always smile.

The eldest prince was quite emotional, this scene seemed like he was treating the belly of a gentleman with the heart of a villain.

That's right, the outside affairs have nothing to do with Zhou Yao, Zhou Yao is just Zhou Yao, who borrows here, willing to show kindness, make friends with ability, accept it or not is his own business, no matter the wind is high or the waves are flat, people can find him comfortable.

It's my fault.

"This matter, I still have to rely on you," the eldest prince poured a cup of tea for Zhou Yao with his hands on the pot, "I've been busy lately, so I don't have time to sit with you, so don't worry about it."

Zhou Yao lowered his eyes slightly: "It seems that in the eyes of the eldest prince, I am that narrow-minded villain."

"How come?" The eldest prince waved his hand, smiling kindly, "Your vision and pattern are few people can match, I only admire you, you should understand your intelligence."

"The eldest prince is serious. Zhou Yao is not someone who can't tell the difference."

Zhou Yao sipped the tea slowly, his eyebrows were sculpted and his smile was warm like a spring breeze.

Seeing that there was indeed no dissatisfaction on his face, the eldest prince was relieved just now.

The two exchanged a few more words of greeting, and chatted for a while about the landscape painting they both loved, and the First Prince was completely relieved.

"I leave this matter to you. I'm very relieved. Don't leave later. Let's have lunch together."

……

Zhou Yao sorted out the collected information and made an action plan.

The relationship between the drawings and Xu Feng has basically been determined.

It is uncertain whether the blueprint is on him now, or has been transferred by him.But no matter which one it is, this person is a key person. Taking him down is equivalent to taking down the blueprint. With the blueprint, the thief's picture seven, the missing treasure... the chances of finding him will be multiplied several times.

Right now, we must use two prongs. If we want to find other relevant clues, this Xu Feng must also be captured!

Xu Feng's father, Xu Changde, was in the Ministry of Officials, and he was very loyal in arranging various officials for the four princes. , a family, the attitude and position will not be so bad.

The fourth prince is close to the water, so no matter how you say it, he has the advantage.

But this Xu Feng is a dude.

Xu Feng is the youngest son of Xu Changde, and also a concubine. Because he has a capable aunt, he has been favored since birth, and he has been shy all the way to the present.Of course, it may not be really lawless, no one can control it, maybe everyone just needs him to look like this.He has three older brothers from the first line, two older brothers from different aunts, and a cousin from the uncle's family across the house, all of them are "better and more obedient" than him, and he is a little naughtier than ordinary people. He was messing around at home, but slowly, his reputation spread, and somehow, he really became a dude.

But the dandy is also self-motivated. Xu Feng's dream is to win glory, for himself and for his aunt, so that everyone can know his ability...

These days, he is choosing a birthday gift for his great-uncle.

At the end of the day, he made an appointment with the shopkeeper of Zhenbao Pavilion on Dongguang Street to see the goods.

Zhou Yao slid across the map with his fingertips, raised his eyebrows, and slightly hooked his eyes, let's start from here!

……

Dongguang Avenue in Zhenbao Pavilion is a busy street, and it is also a very high-end treasure shop. It is not difficult to find the front of the three-story building.

Xu Feng was also very punctual, and he appeared at the end of the street just before the end of the day.

Zhou Yao took a step ahead of him and walked into the Zhenbao Pavilion.

Guan Jin was spotted at a glance.

That triangular-eyed fat man who especially likes the black man behind is standing in the position of the shopkeeper!

Guan Fatty is the chief executive of Huayuan Commercial Bank, and he sent a younger sister to the fourth prince's mansion, and relying on the fourth prince to do business in the capital of Chu, he is unparalleled in the limelight.On the day the thieves gathered, this person was also there, and he repeatedly attacked the black man. He obviously had his own plans, but the fourth prince didn't punish him...

Zhou Yao paid attention and came down to check him carefully.

The owner of Huayuan Commercial Bank was surnamed Hua, and it started in the hinterland of the Great Zhou Dynasty. Its business was huge, and there were their commercial firms in various countries. The Huayuan Commercial Bank in Chu was just a small branch.Guan Jin is in charge of Chu, and he is attached to the four princes. The one who is more loyal and fearful is the Hua family, his master.

The main family of the Hua family is not in Chudi, and the sons of the direct descendants have not been sent here. The biggest one here is the person in charge, and there is too little information to get. Zhou Yao can't find out why Guan Jin's expression is so nervous, but the fourth prince should let him go. It is related to the Hua family behind it.

The treasure was lost, and it was on the site of Huayuan Commercial Firm; the thieves gathered, and Guan Jin was there, and it was news that they bought it at a high price; the blueprint was related to Xu Feng, and Xu Feng wanted to go to Zhenbao Pavilion to buy things, so Guan Jin became the owner of Zhenbao Pavilion. dispensers.

It seems that those who want this treasure... are not only thieves and princes.

"The manager? Why are you here? Where's shopkeeper Liu?"

Xu Feng was obviously also very surprised by the appearance of Guan Jin. He made an appointment with the shopkeeper of Zhenbao Pavilion. What does it mean that the people from Huayuan Commercial Bank are here?Could it be...the fourth prince?

He frowned, and his expression was a little unkind.

"Hey, isn't this the young master of the Xu family? You are here, and you are welcome from afar. Forgive me, forgive me!" Guan Jin clasped his hands together with a smile, and explained, "Zhenbao Pavilion has been bought by Huayuan Commercial Firm. The signboard has not been put up yet, but the business is still going on, and the things are still selling. According to your voice, it is an appointment with shopkeeper Liu? Shopkeeper Liu was still here just now. Unfortunately, someone brought a letter saying that his wife was sick and his wife was gone. My mother’s family hasn’t come back yet, so I have no choice but to go back to help, Young Master Xu, don’t be surprised, how about I help Young Master Xu choose things today? If you are not in a hurry, you can wait for shopkeeper Liu, it’s the time, maybe it’s uncertain.”

Xu Feng hesitated.

Guan Jin said again: "In fact, when you are in your position, Young Master Xu, you must know that there are a lot of good things. In our shops, whoever has what kind of treasures is clear, and there are no secrets. Good things There are people arguing about it. This batch of new goods arrived last night. If Young Master Xu doesn't particularly like them, you can wait as long as you want. If you like them, they will be sent away by others at [-]:[-] in the evening. Shan, our shop doesn't have two for you."

Xu Feng thought about it, and he didn't care about the fourth prince, and immediately said: "Take out the glass cup, Yishui inkstone, and coral stone!"

Guan Jin immediately beckoned people to get things, with a smile on his face: "How about you, Master Xu, you know the goods? These items only arrived last night. They are so ingenious and exquisite. It doesn't matter which one you choose, I guarantee you No loss!"

The next step is to look at the goods, Guan Jin flatters and flatters all kinds of horses, this one is good, that one is also good, everything can be blown out by him.

Zhou Yao thought in his heart that he is indeed a person who specializes in selling things. After a while, a few words changed Xu Feng's impression.

Zhou Yao doesn't care what tricks Guan Jin is playing, it's time for him to move now.

In his mind, this Xu Feng is a bit conceited, but he is also easy to deceive. If Xu Feng can be coaxed to appreciate and like him, and is willing to make friends, it will not be difficult to make a few dinners and drinks.

"This Yishui inkstone is firm and moist, touches it like skin, grinds it sharply, does not reject ink, and has an elegant pattern... This coral stone is like blood in color, shiny and shiny, it is rare to naturally give birth to a life-long inkstone." 'The word really makes me sad..."

Xu Feng compared them several times, and put down everything else, only these two, hesitating.

"If you want to talk about this pattern...it is really important. Whether it is a symbol or a connotation, it has the power to fascinate people. Master Xu attaches great importance to it—and it should."

There seemed to be some hidden meaning in Guan Jin's words. Xu Feng stared straight at the thing, as if he heard it, but he didn't seem to hear it.

Zhou Yao observed Xu Feng for a while, and confirmed that he prefers the blood coral with the word longevity, and stepped forward with a smile: "This thing is really beautiful."

Xu Feng was very vigilant, he touched the coral stone tightly: "Do you want it?"

"Young master is watching right now. Even if I want to, you have to express that you don't want to be eligible."

Zhou Yao showed kindness, and Xu Feng breathed a sigh of relief: "You want this thing, do you want to give it to someone? To whom?"

"An elder who is highly respected and respected by me. Of course, others also admire him." Zhou Yao looked at the blood coral, his eyes sparkled, "Can I touch it?"

"nature."

Zhou Yao touched the coral stone with a satisfied expression on his face: "As people get older, they like festive things that bring good omens. Only they can have such things..."

Xu Feng nodded heavily, yes, no one else deserves it!

He was interested in this in the first place, but seeing other people appreciate it now, and even thought of going with him, he suddenly felt a confidant, and the others didn't compete with him, very gentlemanly...

Xu Feng decided that if he wanted something, he would also hand over this friend!

"Wrap it up for me!" He finished speaking proudly, and looked at Zhou Yao with a smile, "What's your name, brother?"

Dimples appeared on Zhou Yao's cheeks. Before he could speak, he heard a voice interjected: "Buy this thing for Xu Xiang, young master Xu is not afraid of being thrown out by Xu Xiang?"

This voice is thick and powerful, and it is provocative when you hear it.
