There are many failures in the country

The man in black sighed softly, and pulled off his mask, revealing a face as cold as ice.Looking at the man in front of him shrugging his shoulders in fright, confirming his well-being, there was a subtle warmth in his eyes: "Tell me, why are you in Qiushui Mountain Villa?"

Shen Ling's throat was habitually cold, and her voice was hoarse: "I and Liu..." Thinking of the promise made at the inn at that time, now I have to keep the words stuck in my throat, and it's about theft. For the sake of the dignity of the royal family, I still don't say anything as well.

"I came here on the emperor's order for my brother, and the other four are all cronies of my military department." Shen Yi told each other frankly, seeing his younger brother hesitate to speak, his voice became cold, "Don't you say?"

"No, but..." Shen Ling raised his head abruptly, looking closely at Shen Yi's face, "Brother, during the day you are... disguised!"

"Yes." Shen Yi said with a stern face, "To keep everything safe, I have to change my appearance. You don't need to know why I came here, you just need to tell me why you are in Qiushui Villa."

"I..." Shen Ling swallowed the words again when he thought of Le Ziqian's threatening gaze.I wanted to make up some nonsense to prevaricate, but the person in front of me was Shen Yi, so I had to abandon this idea.

Shen Yi is well aware of his younger brother's temper, if he doesn't want to say it, he will definitely not reveal half a word: "You run away from home, my father and I are very worried, I heard that you had an accident in Xuzhou, I rushed there without stopping, how could I know No sign of you. In any case, as long as you are safe and sound, that is the best."

safe and sound?Shen Ling couldn't help but think of the good deeds that Yun's had done. If it wasn't for her, he wouldn't have been captured and taken to the cottage, and he wouldn't have owed Yue Xingfeng favors for no reason. Naturally, he wouldn't be standing here to be questioned now.

Seeing him bowing his head, Shen Yi said, "You know how to be ashamed? As a child, you shouldn't let your family worry about it. You'll be gone for a few months without a single letter from home. It really shouldn't be."

Shen Ling secretly said: "Letter from home? One head and two grow up every day, return the letter from home?"

Shen Yi said again: "Earlier I learned that there are other residents in Qiushui Villa, but I didn't expect it to be you. Who are those two people walking with you? You mistook me for them, could it be..."

"They're just curious to hang around!" Shen Ling immediately explained, for fear that her brother would think of other places.

"Walking around, also wearing black clothes?" Shen Yi has a keen intuition, "They are for that brocade box? They know what to buy."

"They are all rich, why would they fall in love with a small box?" Shen Ling tried to defend, but seeing his brother's expression, his fingertips felt cold, and he immediately withered.

Shen Yi said coldly: "Hearing what you said, I believe that they are more interested in the brocade box. Maybe they have already succeeded."

Shen Ling gasped: "With your cronies here, they won't, won't succeed."

"Can Jian Qingqing agree to live in the villa, how can you be an idler?" Shen Yi's face was cold, and his ice-hardened eyes only looked at Shen Ling, "In this case, if you help me with something, in the future if you Even if you are involved, as a brother, I can protect you well."

"No need... Uh, what's the matter?" Shen Ling wiped off his cold sweat, and said that he almost spoke too soon.

Shen Ling originally thought that it was the sixth prince who stole things, so the so-called "comprehension" should be more worrying.But thinking about the character of that prince, maybe he will turn his face and deny it at that time... Then it will be a joke.

Shen Yi said: "You are familiar with them, so help me steal the brocade box back."

Shen Ling was dumb: "Steal, steal?"

"Yes. You find a way to get it back, and I will find you tomorrow." After Shen Yi finished speaking, a white shadow flew across the sky, "I'm leaving first, you go back quickly, don't make them suspicious."

It was a white pigeon, and Shen Ling could see it clearly.

"Oh." He Chi replied, and in the blink of an eye, Shen Yi disappeared.

Back in the wing room, the lights in the room had already been turned on, Yue Xingfeng and Le Ziqian were already sitting and waiting, but there were still a bunch of people in disorder on the ground.

Shen Ling's steps froze, and she said with a dry smile, "You guys... are pretty fast."

Yue Xingfeng smiled slightly, his eyes were a bit chilly: "Yeah, where have you been?"

Shen Ling tried to calm down and said: "There are so many people in the room, I was a little scared to see it, so I went out for a walk. Look, isn't it the third watch?" Seeing the ebony brocade box on the table, "Hey ? What's in it?"

Le Ziqian took a look at Yue Xingfeng, and opened the brocade box casually: "You know it after you come to see it? It should look familiar."

"Familiar?" Shen Ling pretended to be very curious and excited, and slipped away from Yue Xingfeng.

"I didn't expect it to be all the way." Yue Xingfeng chuckled behind his back.

"This is, it's Lang Feng..." Shen Ling pointed to the jade in the brocade box.

Warring States Two-headed Dragon Yuhuang!It was the item that was sold at a high price at the Langfeng Festival!

It turned out that Shen Yi also... Shen Ling was stunned watching, but he didn't expect that his elder brother would unintentionally accompany him along the way!

As a servant of the imperial military department, actually leading people to participate in the Langfeng event known as the "black market in the rivers and lakes", this is a serious crime that violates the strict laws of the military department.According to Shen Yi's usual prudence, if he did this, he would definitely not do it to others.If this trip is the intention of the superior, then it is not known whether this superior has anything to do with Cai Ting.

Since Shen Yi has gone all the way and bought the goods, Shen Ling can only hope that his brother will do a good job so that the court's involvement in the black market will not spread into the world.

"Isn't this someone's coveted treasure?" Yue Xingfeng walked quietly behind Shen Ling, bent slightly, and stopped on his shoulder.

"You just hang down..." Shen Ling turned her head, and her lips touched her face.Busily gathering up his sleeves to wipe it, he hurriedly backed away, saw that he was very proud, and saw Le Ziqian smiling without saying a word, waved his hand and said: "I was not careful just now! Ziqian, you saw it, you were not careful!"

Le Ziqian put up Erlang's legs and looked at with a smile: "I understand."

Every time this happened, Le Ziqian would always say "I understand", which made Shen Ling want to cry.

Yue Xingfeng, however, seemed as though nothing had happened: "I remember you said last time that even if you spend 5 taels of silver, you can't get it done, but this time you can get it without spending a penny. Don't you feel tempted?"

Shen Ling was still in the midst of the accident just now, unable to extricate herself, she said without thinking: "My heart beats your sister!"

Yue Xingfeng paced over, as if nobody else said: "Could it be that now that you have me, other things are not considered treasures?"

"It's your size!" What Shen Ling cared most about was Le Ziqian's reaction, and she couldn't help but look sideways at him, as if she really understood it very well.For the family's reputation, Shen Ling couldn't care less about Yue Xingfeng's mood: "Ziqian, I really have nothing!"

"I understand, I understand." Le Ziqian repeated these two words again and again.

Shen Ling had nothing to complain about, she turned her head and stared at someone once or twice, but saw that someone's eyes were filled with anger again, I really don't understand why he stares all day long!But after thinking about it, Shen Yi had to do what Shen Yi told him.

Yue Xingfeng said, "You don't want it?"

Shen Ling really didn't want to use the means of stealing: "You give it?"

Yue Xingfeng shook his head: "Of course not. Wouldn't it be a disadvantage if you don't take advantage of this opportunity to make a fortune?"

"I knew it!" Shen Ling gritted her teeth in hatred.

"5 taels." Yue Xingfeng quoted, "You said you didn't buy 5 taels back then, but now I only sell you 5 taels."

To be honest, 5 taels is really not expensive to buy the Warring States Double-headed Dragon Yuhuang.But, this is something that belonged to Shen Yi, and even more so from the imperial court. How can there be any reason to steal it from someone and redeem it at a high price?

Shen Ling became bolder: "Hey, Yue Xingfeng, you give me the 5 taels on credit first, and I will wait for me in the future..."

"A thousand pieces of gold." Yue Xingfeng said lightly, "You still owe me a thousand pieces of gold. Before the previous debts are cleared, you are thinking about the future ones? In my opinion, even if you owe the debts to the next life, I may not be able to recover them."

"You let me go home, I'll pay you back right away!" Shen Ling saw four words in his eyes: daydreaming.

At this critical moment, Le Ziqian, who had been on the sidelines for a long time, finally spoke, but what's with that greasy tone?He said, "Shen Ling, if you like it, I can buy it for you."

Shen Ling was stunned, thinking to herself that the prince hadn't figured out the situation yet, the double-headed dragon jade huang belonged to your Le family!

Le Ziqian said again: "It's only 5 taels, what you saved in Baling Province is enough."

Shen Ling was so frightened that her face turned pale, she waved her hands repeatedly to show her refusal, and said stammeringly: "It's too precious, no need, really no need. It's useless for me to hold it, isn't it..." How dare he ask the prince to pay for something stupid? ?

Yue Xingfeng stepped forward, closed the brocade box, and took it away: "The opportunity was missed, but it was your own fault."

Shen Ling said: "Take it away!"

Seeing that the third watch was about to pass and the waiters were about to wake up, the three of them went back to their houses.

Shen Ling couldn't sleep all night, thinking about the things entrusted to him by his elder brother, thinking that his elder brother thinks highly of him too much.If he wanted to pick something out of Yue Xingfeng's hands, he might not be able to do it even if he died.

When the window lattice moved, it seemed that someone had entered the room, and walked quickly to Shen Ling's couch: "Did you get it?"

Shen Ling visually observed that Shen Yi overestimated him by more than a little bit, saying that it was tomorrow, and it really was tomorrow, and dawn would come soon.

Shen Yi looked at him with a look of embarrassment: "I know that one night is a little short, but the sunset and the moon feast are coming, so we must hurry."

Shen Ling wondered: "Brother, they are masters, you also know me..." Before he finished speaking, there was a small bag of things in his hand.
