Those who come can still be chased [rebirth]
Chapter 14
Rong Yan wandered around the city for a long time before he found that tiny restaurant in a somewhat remote street.He looked up at the cover hanging above his head for a long time, then stretched out his hand and pushed open the slightly old store door.
During his time in Xu State, he has been trapped in the post house, so naturally no one would tell him about such a small shop in a remote street. He knew this place because he was a frequent visitor here in his previous life.
Rong Yan grew up pampered and pampered by his mother's side. He is more or less pampered, especially picky when it comes to food.After being sent to Xu State, although he had to make compromises in many things, he still couldn't adapt to the tastes of the northerners. It didn't take long for him to lose a lot of weight.
Later, Liang Ji searched all over Longcheng, only to find such a restaurant opened by a Wei man.
In recent years, there have been frequent civil wars and disasters in Wei State. Many people had to flee to Xu State in order to survive. This restaurant was opened by a young couple who came from the Southern Wei Dynasty to escape the war. Because the location of the store is too remote, The taste is too bland for Xu people, and most of the daily customers are merchants from Wei State who travel to and from Longcheng.
There are also poor people like Rong Yan who have to leave their homeland and have no hope of returning.
The location of the store is small, but it is extremely tidy. Seeing Rong Yan coming in, the shopkeeper immediately greeted him with a smile on his face: "It's very cold outside, please come inside, young master."
As he spoke, he ushered people into their seats, and poured a cup of hot tea swiftly.
Rong Yan responded with a smile, and casually looked around.
I don't know if it was because it had just snowed and the weather was too cold. There was only one customer in the store, and his tall figure was particularly conspicuous in the small store.The other party was eating with his head down, and when he noticed someone entering the shop, he also turned his head to look at him. When he saw Rong Yan's face, his eyes flickered slightly, and then he greeted calmly: "Is this your first time here, sir?"
Rong Yan met his eyes, and the corners of his lips curled up: "It seems that you are a regular customer, why don't you recommend some dishes for me?"
The other party didn't shirk, glanced at the menu, chose two dishes for Rong Yan on his own initiative, and pointed to the seat beside him: "Anyway, I'm alone, why don't we sit down and have a chat?"
Rong Yan looked at him quietly for a while, then nodded happily: "Alright."
The shopkeeper went into the back kitchen to help after ordering food. Rong Yan took a sip of hot tea, glanced at the young man who was eating quietly opposite, and suddenly said: "I didn't expect to meet Mr. Qi here."
The other party's hand holding the chopsticks paused slightly, and smiled softly: "I didn't expect to meet the Third Highness... However, although I didn't stay in Longcheng for a long time, I heard a lot of rumors about His Highness, Your Highness It looks very different now than before.”
"Third Highness?" Hearing this long-lost address, Rong Yan blinked, and a mocking smile appeared on his lips, "I have a new identity now, and if Master Qi is still called like this by Rong Xuan's ears, I'm afraid he will be called Jumping in anger."
"Anyway, I don't care about Rong Xuan's feelings." Young Master Qi took a sip of the soup and looked up at Rong Yan, "If you can get angry with him, wouldn't your Highness wish for it even more?"
"That's true." Rong Yan rested his chin, thoughtfully, "Young Master Qi traveled all the way to Xu Guolai, it seems that it must be for a big event."
Mr. Qi drank most of the bowl of soup, wiped his mouth slowly, put down the bowl and chopsticks, and patiently explained to Rong Yan: "It's not a big deal, it's just that the younger brother is stubborn and ran away from home to Xu country."
Rong Yan was slightly startled, he didn't know what to think of, and his voice lowered a bit: "It's the first time I heard that you have a younger brother."
"He was born in his late father's concubine. He was sent to a Taoist temple in the mountains to recuperate because of his infirmity since he was a child. Outsiders don't know about it."
Mr. Qi shook his head lightly when he said this, "Your Highness also knows that my family has undergone great changes, and now there is only one blood relative left. I am worried that he will encounter accidents when he is alone in the mountains, so he wants to take him to take care of him. But He has been living at ease for a long time, and his personality is out of control. He secretly left home when I was not around, and the guards followed him all the way to Xu Guo, but they couldn't bring him back. He, in the end, he ran to Longcheng again, and he doesn't know where he is hiding right now."
Rong Yan looked at Young Master Qi helplessly and couldn't help laughing: "It seems that even if Young Master Qi found Lingdi and took him back reluctantly, he would still have a headache in the future."
"I really have nothing to do with him. The whole family probably only has the elder brother's words..."
Mr. Qi's expression changed slightly when he said this, he paused for a while, and then changed his tone, "Now I don't give you a chance even if I want to give you a headache. There are still many things to deal with at home, and I will set off to go back in two days. I just hope that he can go home when he has had enough messing around outside." After finishing speaking, he glanced at Rong Yan, "Your Highness lives in Longcheng, and his connections are always stronger than mine. My little brother, I hope you can take care of me more."
As he said that, he got up, picked up the pen and paper on the counter, and hurriedly wrote down a line: "I have a few capable men living here temporarily. If your Highness needs anything in the future, you can send someone to find them."
Rong Yan took the note and glanced at it twice, then lowered his eyes and said, "Master Qi is not afraid that I will reveal this place...to Xu Ren?"
Mr. Qi laughed loudly: "Mr. Qi is willing to help if you want to please Xu people by doing this."
Rong Yan also laughed, and dipped the note into the teacup at hand. Seeing that the paper was soaked and the ink slowly smudged, he stopped: "Don't worry, Mr. It’s not like repaying kindness with revenge.”
Young Master Qi raised his eyebrows with a smile, and reached out his hand to take out some broken silver from his pocket and put it on the table: "His Royal Highness's food should be ready soon, Qi will go ahead after eating."
Rong Yan nodded, leaning against the wall and watching the Mr. Qi wrapped in a heavy robe and going out, then turned his head to glance at the ink-stained tea, and said loudly to the back kitchen: "Shopkeeper, please serve me another cup." Hot tea."
At the same time, in a dilapidated house in the southwest of the city, Yu Ren also wanted to drink a cup of hot tea.
He was busy collecting corpses in the ice and snow the night before until dawn, and Liang Ji picked him up from his sleep less than two hours after he fell asleep. The coachman was found in the snow-leaking thatched hut.
The coachman hid after he escaped last night. He originally wanted to sneak out of the city after dawn, but he didn't expect the city gate to be under martial law, so he had to hide again. Within half a day, the guards found him, and he was curled up in a corner shivering.
The dilapidated door was pushed open from the outside, and familiar footsteps approached, Yu Ren yawned, and turned his head lazily: "General, I have been caught, should I send it to Jing Zhaoyin now?"
Liang Ji changed into a black robe, holding the hilt of the sword at his waist with his right hand, with a strong chill on his body: "What did you ask?"
"Maybe I was scared out of my wits. I kept shaking here and didn't say a complete sentence." Yu Ren said, kicking the man with his foot, "Is it almost? Aren't you very courageous?"
The coachman buried his face in his knees and held his head in his hands, as if he couldn't hear Yu Ren's words, and didn't respond in any way.
Liang Ji took a look, frowned slightly, and unsheathed the long sword at his waist: "Kill it."
"Don't kill me!" The coachman raised his head suddenly, cried bitterly, and knelt down in front of the two of them, "I... I don't know who they are, nor what they are going to do. Last night, last night I was in the imperial city. While I was waiting for the little proton to come out, they found me, gave me 200 taels of silver, and asked me to drive the carriage to that alley. Don't know anything, really, really don't know!"
"200 taels of silver..." Yu Ren laughed, then turned to Liang Ji and said, "General, if he really doesn't know anything, why didn't he even dare to go home last night, hiding in such a crappy place?"
"I... I'm afraid that they will think that the 200 taels are a loss, and they will settle the bill with me later." The driver said, taking out a money bag from his pocket, "All the money is here, I haven't had time yet Hua, the two generals, I really don't know anything!"
Yu Ren raised his eyebrows and glanced at Liang Ji. Liang Ji nodded slightly, retracted the long sword into its sheath, turned and walked out the door.
Yu Ren gave some instructions to the other guards and followed them out. Liang Ji stood motionless at the entrance of the alley and stared into the distance with deep eyes.
"Sure enough, it's about the same as what we guessed. Those killers are all from Wei, so it's impossible to tell a coachman about his plan." Yu Ren followed his gaze and said in surprise, "That's from His Royal Highness Ji's mansion." Mr. Sun, right? Didn’t it mean that he is not in good health, why did he come to such a remote place in this freezing weather?”
Liang Ji didn't answer, and pointed behind him: "Send it to Jing Zhaoyin."
Yu Ren responded, and when he turned his head, Liang Ji had already disappeared from sight.
Liang Ji followed Sun Yi silently through the streets and alleys. Seeing a familiar storefront in front of him, he frowned slightly, stepped up and took a few steps, and suddenly asked, "Why is Master Sun here?"
In the empty streets and alleys, a sudden male voice sounded. Sun Yi was obviously taken aback. He turned his head and saw Liang Ji behind him, and his expression calmed down: "So it's General Liang." He pointed to the restaurant a few steps away , "I heard that there is a restaurant here, so come and try it."
While talking, he touched his right arm hidden in his cuff with his left hand: "Is General Liang also here to eat, do you want to come together?"
"I'm on business, so I happened to pass by." Liang Ji looked past Sun Yi, looked at the slightly dilapidated facade of the restaurant, and tapped the scabbard on his waist, "Master Sun should have heard about it too. It's not very safe in the city recently, so returning home early after dinner will save His Royal Highness Ji Wang from worrying."
During his time in Xu State, he has been trapped in the post house, so naturally no one would tell him about such a small shop in a remote street. He knew this place because he was a frequent visitor here in his previous life.
