Su Ningxin touched her waist. OK, she didn't bring her usual weapons. Fortunately, she still had a... dagger tied to her leg.
This is a dagger that exudes the aura of a wealthy man. The scabbard is shiny and inlaid with colorful gems. The handle is inlaid with warm jade. It probably has a massage function
From Su Ningxin's modern point of view, it is completely unsightly, rustic and outdated, but this does not affect its value, which can make up for all its shortcomings.
Chu Jihan, who was under the tree, slowed down and approached slowly. Apparently Shuangbai didn't notice the two people behind her until this moment. Su Ningxin couldn't help but remind her aloud.
Then Chu Jihan suddenly rushed up behind Shuangbai and stabbed Shuangbai's artery with the dagger.
The reason why Chu Jihan acted so neatly was because he guessed that the person on the tree might be the secret guard of a certain adult in the private room, and if he wanted to eavesdrop on the content inside, he had to do it without disturbing those people. After getting rid of the secret guard, the attack will be fierce.
But he was destined to miss this time. Su Ningxin had been prepared for a long time and of course she would not let him succeed. The dagger between the lightning and flint blocked the back of Shuangbai's neck, blocking Chu Jihan's fatal blow.
I was joking just now, Su Ningxin brought this dagger because it was strong and sharp, and could cut iron like clay.
Su Ningxin slowly raised her head, with a warm and polite smile, and looked at Chu Jihan, whose pupils were dilated and obviously shocked.
Chu Jihan was shocked in three aspects. First, his attack was blocked. Second, he looked up and found two people on the tree. Third, the other party looked up and found that it was Shen Qing.
[Shocked, right? That’s the expression on my face now. Your shocked expression sets off my calmness.]
Chu Jihan: "..." I'm sure it's Shen Qing.
Thinking of Shen Qing's thoughts, Chu Jihan instantly controlled his expression so that no emotion could be seen.
Naturally, Shuangbai was shocked by such a movement. He instantly turned his head and looked behind him, and at the same time, he put his elbows towards Chu Jihan's stomach, but the other party easily held his wrist.
It was the season of May, the peach tree had lush branches, and Su Ningxin and Shuangbai deliberately hid their figures. Lian Sheng under the tree couldn't see anything. Hearing the sound of fighting, he instantly felt something was wrong and flew away. Came up too.
Shuangbai: "..."
Chu Jihan: "..."
Su Ningxin: "..."
[This tree is hard work. I don’t know if it can hold on, or if it will be too tired to bear peaches.]
Liansheng: "Σ( ° △ °|||)︴" Are you gathering here
"This exchange of tea and horses is a major event related to the foundation of our Daqi. The court attaches great importance to it and cannot let it go wrong. Mr. Su must send more people at that time to avoid any accidents." At this time, a voice came from the private room. The sound of people talking instantly attracted the attention of the four people in the tree.
[Finally let’s get down to business.]
While Su Ningxin was listening attentively, she suddenly felt her branches sinking. She turned around and saw Chu Jihan looking at her with a flattering look on his face.
The peach tree was divided into two trunks. Su Ningxin and Shuangbai originally occupied one branch each. Later, Chu Jihan came behind Shuangbai, and Liansheng came behind Chu Jihan.
Chu Jihan felt that the tree trunk under his feet was a little too heavy to carry, so he held onto the branches above his head and used Qing Kung Fu to turn to Su Ningxin in the air.
Chu Jihan moved too fast, which made Shuangbai, who was planning to come over, slow down a step. Shuangbai looked at Chu Jihan angrily, taking advantage of her girl's disguise as a man, this dead man.
Shuangbai suddenly turned his head, ah! There is a dead man here, can you stay away from her? His clothes are touching him!
Su Ningxin was used to being careless and didn't pay too much attention. She just gave Chu Jihan a warning look.
[Don’t delay my business, or I’ll kick you out.]
"Don't worry, Mr. Cheng. I will definitely arrange manpower to ensure that no one rushes to cause trouble in the tea-horse market. If this is not done well, wouldn't it be a disgrace to the trust of the Holy One." This was Master Su San's answer to what he had just said.
The four of them paid no attention to anything else and listened to the conversation inside. Chu Jihan received the news from the secret guards and hurried over to determine how many people in the Tea Transport Department knew about it.
As for Mr. Su San, Chu Jihan is not sure what role he plays now. If it was just a simple private tea case, he would naturally not be involved. But now that the entire tea transportation department is in the hands of others, Mr. Su San is the only one who knows the state. Nothing is impossible anymore.
[If you agree without understanding the situation, then you will be an accomplice and you will die without knowing how!]
Su Ningxin roared crazily in her heart, it turned out to be a cheap daddy, which did not make people worry at all.
"Hahaha, Mr. Su's loyalty can be seen from the sun and the moon," it was still Mr. Cheng who spoke.
"Now all the official tea is in the warehouse. It's my first year since I took office, and I don't feel at ease. I wonder if Mr. Su can send some people to help me guard it. I always feel that there are a few people in the Tea Transportation Department."
[Don’t agree, don’t agree, don’t agree!]
Chu Jihan was originally looking towards the wooden window, but Shen Qing was just between him and the wooden window, so he could catch a glimpse of Shen Qing's expression out of the corner of his eye.
Listening to Shen Qing's thoughts, Chu Jihan couldn't help but wonder, did Shen Qing have any personal relationship with Mr. Su San
As expected, there was not a word of truth in this man's mouth. He also said that he had been in the desert all year round and had just arrived in Xingyuan Mansion. How did he meet Mr. Su San when he first arrived in Xingyuan Mansion
Chu Jihan's complaint was interrupted by Mr. Su San, "Master Cheng, don't worry too much. For so many years in the tea-horse trade, there has never been a case of official tea being stolen. How could anyone really tamper with the tea transportation department's warehouse without opening their eyes?" .”
After Mr. Su San finished speaking, Chu Jihan saw with his own eyes that Shen Qing's eyes lit up visibly.
[This is a good idea to solve the problem. Go to the warehouse to steal half of the official tea and keep the other half. Should the tea transportation department inform the government or not? If notified, the quantity of official tea is correct. If not, how can the lost tea be recovered?]
Then Su Ningxin turned to look at Chu Jihan, looking into Chu Jihan's eyes, with a bit of a smile on her face, and then she heard words that made her vomit blood,
[Isn’t he investigating? How about luring him into stealing tea?]
Although Shen Qing's eyes were bright and beautiful, Chu Jihan still looked away expressionlessly, not leaving the child with the slightest hope.
At this time, Chu Jihan was very happy that he had the ability to read minds. If he couldn't see what Shen Qing was thinking, he might have been betrayed by him at some point.
No wonder he is the master of Xueshe Chamber of Commerce, a profiteer!
Several people listened for a while in the tree, and what they said next was nothing more than a few people from the Tea Transport Department, headed by Mr. Cheng, racking their brains to drag Master Su San into the water. However, Master Su San, who had been immersed in officialdom for many years, was very vigilant and practiced Tai Chi desperately.
