Thousands of Mountains

Chapter 41 The Cliff

Yin Cen half-closed his eyes, in return?What, did this person think he was negotiating a deal?

Ye Mingzhi seemed to see what Yin Cen was thinking, and continued, "Everything in the world can be traded, especially information."

"My lord, I have just provided a piece of information. Whether it is worth money or not, you can decide in your own mind. Take it as a gift from me to your lord. For the next thing, I need to be paid."

Yin Cen: "If you don't tell me, won't I be able to find out?"

Ye Mingzhi: "Maybe it can be found out, but it will take a year, two years? Or even longer, maybe it can't be found out. My lord has to find someone to report the dead ghost to the imperial court to deal with it."

Yin Cen: "The truth you said is related to other people?"

Ye Mingzhi: "Naturally."

Yin Cen: "Since that's the case, how can others let you go?"

Ye Mingzhi: "If not, how can the adults let me go?"

Yin Cen hooked the corner of his mouth, "Tell me about your conditions."

Ye Mingzhi: "My lord, don't worry, the request is not high."

Yin Cen stared at him, and Ye Mingzhi said, "Before the tea-horse market, you can move freely, without surveillance, without going to jail."

Yin Cen was suspicious for a moment, and said, "That's all?"

"That's all." Ye Mingzhi looked calm.

"What about after the mutual market?" Yin Cen asked again.

"Everything is up to the adults," Ye Mingzhi said.

Yin Cen couldn't believe it, but even if the other party was fishing, he was willing to take the risk, so he nodded and said, "Okay, I promise you."

Ye Mingzhi had a faint smile on the corner of his mouth, "Three days later, at three quarters of Xu time, Chengbei and Manlou went to meet someone."

"Who?"

"I."

Yin Cen couldn't hold back any longer, "Are you kidding me?"

Ye Mingzhi continued, "Of course I don't dare, I have to go out first to get my things, and then go to see the adults."

Yin Cen thought for a moment, not worried about him running away, so he nodded slowly.

After returning home, Yin Cen couldn't sleep anymore, the words "Han people's favorite concubine" kept lingering in his mind, he didn't know whether the news was true or not, and he didn't know if this concubine was actually Yin Cun who was still alive.

If it was Yin Cistan, how did she get here all these years?Why do you forget what happened and who you are?

Yin Cen tossed and turned, wishing to go to the Shule military tent immediately to find the princess and see if it was his son.

The next morning, Chen Ji saw Yin Cen with two huge black and blue eyes, and Yin Cen didn't intend to hide it, so he told Chen Ji about the "deal" with Ye Mingzhi at night, only skipping about Tak Hulun's princess. For a while, Chen Ji was slightly dissatisfied, and agreed to handle the case together, but you interrogated alone, what's the matter.

What Yin Cen thought was that Ye Mingzhi, an old Jianghu, would never tell the truth to many people, especially if the other party was the prince. If Chen Ji was around, this kind of "deal" would definitely not happen.

But Yin Cen was different, he wanted results, regardless of the process, Ye Mingzhi saw this.

Chen Ji walked to the courtyard and saw that the hidden guards on the opposite side had withdrawn, knowing that Ye Mingzhi had been let go by Yin Cen, he was really angry.

Yin Cen chased him to the courtyard again and gave him a good explanation.

Chen Ji asked, "Is my brother going to go alone for the appointment in three days?"

Yin Cen thought for a while, "Yes."

Seeing that Chen Ji was about to explode again, he smiled and quickly comforted him, "But you and Wu Ye'er are secretly together."

Wu Ye'er jumped out of the room, "Where are you going?"

Following Luo Qingshan, he also staggered out from the next room.

Immediately after, four people and eight eyes saw Qin Nianqin, Master Qin shyly opened the door, and walked out of Wu Ye'er's room.

Luo Qingshan was petrified on the spot as if struck by lightning, "Big, big... my lord!"

He just calculated the accounts for three days, and his Lord Qin ran away with others? !

Qin Nian's quilted face was as red as the morning glow, and Wu Ye'er was eager to protect his wife, and was busy driving people around, "Look at what, look at what, have you never seen a bride shy?"

Then he covered his ears and knelt down and begged for mercy, "I was wrong, I was wrong, tonight I will squeeze my shoulders and beat my back..."

Qin Nianqin grabbed his ear and twisted it harder, almost crying, why did I find such a fool... I can also shout out loud in the courtyard...

Yin Cen covered his mouth and hurriedly dragged Chen Ji to the front hall.

Last night, I was listening to the wall, and today I was addicted to watching young couples flirting. His Royal Highness, this trend is very serious.

------

I inquired with the people at the post station that Hemanlou is an extremely high-end restaurant in Zhaoyang Prefecture, and it is not often open to the public. The people who come and go to Hemanlou are all rich businessmen, or people from Daning and foreign tribes. High-ranking officials, and the door is not open every day, but only after making a reservation in advance, will the door with a beautiful voice be opened.

Ordinary people only know that a song in it is worth a thousand taels, a drunk is worth ten thousand gold, and a dance is even more unwilling to wake up in this life, but in this life, they don't have the good fortune to go and see it for themselves.

The most mysterious thing is that this building is not built in the city, but on the edge of a cliff in a valley in the outskirts. At night, there is a silver moon and stars above the head, and the waterfall on the other side falls straight down three thousand feet, but here is all the joys of the world. What a wonderful place where both heaven and earth are intoxicated.

All the way from the capital to the south, Yin Cen thought he had seen a lot of extravagant style|moon fields that are rarely seen in the capital, but from this description, it seemed that none of them could compare to He Manlou, so he was full of curiosity.

Three days later, Yin Cen rode out of the city to meet the appointment, and Wu Ye'er and Chen Ji followed like a shadow.

Yin Cen repeatedly told Wu Ye'er not to get too close, he expected Ye Mingzhi to be a master, plus the unknown old man he saw that night, he was not immune to this, but he didn't want to startle the snake.

Fortunately, with the Green Mountain Blade in his hand, Yin Cen touched the handle of the knife, feeling a little at ease in his heart.

Going north all the way out of the city gate, about a quarter of an hour later, Yin Cen saw a brightly lit building with several floors in the distance. When he entered, he could only hear the sound of silk and bamboo string music, but there was no welcome or departure lively.

Yin Cen got off his horse, and someone greeted him immediately. When he entered, he saw that the furnishings in the building were not like the border of Yunnan, but like a water town in the south of the Yangtze River.

A neatly dressed young man led him up to the second floor, facing a huge landscape painting on the entire wall. Yin Cen looked at it, and felt that it was similar to the "Cui Han" by the former master Lu Songzi in the Chaohe Palace in the palace. "Dream of Jade" is very similar. Seeing him staring at it, the young servant introduced softly, "This is the largest painting by Lu Songzi during his lifetime. It is called "Jiang Yue Seeing Heavy Mountains."

Yin Cen nodded, thinking that this size might be twice as big as the one in the palace, which is really insane for the owner of the building, so he asked, "What is your master's name? Where is it now? "

The little servant lowered his eyes and smiled, and said politely, "My lord, please forgive me, the little one is just a servant and has never met the master."

Yin Cen didn't ask any more questions, the servant led him up to the third floor, all the way up, all the floors were beautiful, but there were no other guests, Yin Cen thought, could it be that Ye Mingzhi was so extravagant that he bought the whole building?

On the third floor, the servant pointed in one direction, then bowed and retreated.

Yin Cen heard a soft and mellow music, and pushed open the door of that room.

Ye Mingzhi was already inside, and when he saw Yin Cen, he just nodded his head slightly, and Yin Cen walked in, and sat on another arhat couch facing him far away.

In front of them, a woman in a white shirt was sitting on a stool and playing the pipa, while another woman in a red shirt was singing Wu Nong's soft words while dancing with water sleeves.

Ye Mingzhi leaned on the couch and hummed slightly to the sound of the music.

Yin Cen glanced at it, and Ye Mingzhi straightened his figure slightly, and said, "I'm not from Yunnan. I grew up in Suzhou, Jiangnan, but unexpectedly I left 20 years ago and never went back. I have to listen to my hometown in my free time. A little misunderstanding to explain homesickness."

Ye Mingzhi picked up the jug on the case again, poured a glass of wine and raised it to Yin Cen, "I heard that my lord loves Shanhaijin in the capital. It just so happens that only Hemanlou in Yunnan has this wine, and it just so happens that this wine also comes from Jiangnan. Tonight If we drank this bottle of wine, we would call this Yunnan Jiangnan."

Yin Cen didn't talk to him, he didn't come to listen to music and drink today, but if the other party insists on finishing the play, it's okay to accompany him, so he also poured a glass and drank it down.

While listening to the ditty, Yin Cen was thinking about when Ye Mingzhi's tricks would end, but suddenly he smelled a burning smell. He turned his head to distinguish carefully, and the smell came from downstairs. .

Yin Cen got up suddenly and opened the door, only to realize that the entire corridor was filled with thick smoke. He rushed to the stairs and looked down from the hollowed-out patio in the middle. Turning into pieces of withered butterflies in the sea of ​​flames, Yin Cen has a bad heart, Ye Mingzhi, an old fox, really made a big move!

Yin Cen rushed back into the room again, and the two geisha girls shivered in the corner of the wall, while Ye Mingzhi was still sitting firmly on the couch, without changing his posture.

With a sound of "cracking", the Qingshan knife was unsheathed, and Yin Cen put the knife on Ye Mingzhi's neck, "Where is the account book?"

Ye Mingzhi just waved his hand, and the two women ran out as if fleeing for their lives, but he smiled at the corner of his mouth, looked at Yin Cen and said, "It took ten years of painstaking efforts to build this and the whole building, and now, for the sake of your lord, it will be burnt down immediately." Yes, my lord should remember this."

Yin Cen was shocked, it turned out that the owner was him!

Ye Mingzhi stopped talking, still smiling, looking behind Yin Cen with his raised head.

Yin Cen suddenly looked back, and found someone standing in a corner of the room at some point, he recognized it at a glance, it was the old man he saw in the courtyard that night, and made him feel chills all over his body!

Seeing this, Yin Cen was a little suspicious again. This old man looked exactly the same as the old man he met yesterday when he was arrested, but his breath was completely different. The feeling that he didn't seem to be alive at all made Yin Cen deep in the sea of ​​fire. Like an iceberg.

The old man's eyes were still empty, but his movements were exceptionally quick. With a bundle in his right hand, he threw it straight into the flames.

Yin Cen paled in shock, and moved his body like an arrow, grabbing the package at the moment it was about to be engulfed in flames.

Looking back, Ye Mingzhi and the old man were left together with only a shadow.

Yin Cen chased the shadow and rushed out of the door. Seeing that the two of them did not know what they were doing, their figures were moving forward in the sea of ​​fire in the corridor. Yin Cen wrapped the account book in his arms, mobilized his internal strength to the peak, and flew forward pounce.

The three of them came to the top platform. Behind Ye Mingzhi and the old man were the vast mountains and high cliffs. Under their feet was a building that was collapsing and full of flames.

The Qianchi Waterfall roared on the other side, Yin Cen stopped a dozen steps in front of the two of them, and shouted to Ye Mingzhi, "I didn't mean to kill you, and I promised you freedom, why did you run away?"

Ye Mingzhi laughed wildly in the firelight, and roared, "Your Excellency, you know that a hair can move your whole body. Your Excellency will let me live, but others may not. If I die tonight, everyone can feel at ease. Why not do it?"

Yin Cen took a step forward, and Ye Mingzhi said again, "My lord, you can't go any further!" He and the old man stepped back quickly, while shouting, "There are enough records in that package to bring your lord back to life, and you don't need to check the rest, your lord. Remember, remember!"

Immediately, the two jumped into the bottomless and endless abyss.

Yin Cen rushed forward with the two, only to see two pale figures falling straight down, suddenly he felt that his feet were precarious, the abyss in front of him was only one step away, and he was about to fall into it...In a split second Suddenly, a hand stretched out behind him, picked up his collar, and pulled him up from the edge of the cliff in the sea of ​​flames.

Looking back, I saw a pair of angry eyes, it was Chen Ji, followed by Wu Ye'er.

The three of them flew forward from the night sky, and the whole building behind them fell to the ground with a bang, sparks splashed into the sky, as if they were brighter than the stars.

Chen Ji was furious, "Today's matter is so dangerous, you decide to go alone, if I didn't have the cheek to forcefully follow, would I still be able to see you after today?!"

Yin Cen knew that he was wrong, and didn't want to make any excuses. He hugged the other party tightly full of guilt, and then buried his head in Chen Ji's chest. Chen Ji pulled him out, carefully looked at his face and body, and made sure that there was nothing wrong with him. Only when it hurts did it calm down a little.

Yin Cen opened the package, and saw that there were all rolled up account books. He opened them by the firelight, and took a rough look with Chen Ji, only to see a series of shocking numbers. Yin Cen's heart was beating faster than before. Ye Mingzhi fell into the cliff even harder, Chen Ji pulled him and Wu Ye'er back, "Go back and wake up Fatty Luo, and have a good nuclear examination."
