"Okay." What else can Fatty Jia do? Jinzhou is the territory of Qianjia Trading Company, so he can only agree.
Teng Zhen was a little suspicious: "Then you must not lie to me, otherwise my father will not let you go."
Hu Sen, who came in a hurry, felt his heart skip a beat when he heard his aunt's voice!
He just left! Fatty Jia just took action
What else, you must not lie to me, my father will not let you go.
Inside the room, Fatty Jia looked at Fa Cai's ordinary face and could only admit that he was unlucky: "Don't worry, Mrs. Teng, I will not let you down -"
Before he finished speaking, Hu Sen kicked open the door to the room, rushed in front of Fatty Jia, grabbed him by the collar and said, "You actually have a crush on Auntie!"
The room was quiet for a while. Fatty Jia was so frightened that he quickly held his head and prepared to be beaten.
When I heard that this was not right, I quickly raised my head and said loudly: "I didn't! No! Really not!"
However, Hu Sen's fist fell.
After a moment of panic, Hu Sen stood in front of Fatty Jia and apologized seriously: "I'm really sorry, I thought... I thought..."
What else could Fatty Jia do with his black right eye? He could only suffer the consequences.
"It's okay, it's okay. I didn't make it clear. I don't blame you."
Hu Sen gave Teng Zhen a few words of advice before turning around and leaving.
Looking at Hu Sen's leaving figure, Fatty Jia was even more angry and hated Jing Yinuo.
On the way to Yangzhou.
In a carriage.
Azheng asked Jing Yinuo strangely: "Sir, didn't you say you wanted to stay in Jinzhou before and take a closer look at the business model of Qianjia Trading Company? Why did you want to leave so suddenly? Mr. Shen didn't send any letters. "
Jing Yinuo knocked Azheng on the head with a fan: "If your young master doesn't leave, he will either be held by Prince Rui's men with a knife on his neck, or he will be confused and become Master Teng's son-in-law."
"Ah?" Azheng didn't understand.
Jing Yinuo didn't bother to explain that Teng Pei had originally invited him to the drink.
When he arrived, he met King Rui's people and told him that Teng Pei asked Teng Zhen to come too.
This news was so timely, Jing Yinuo immediately knew what Teng Pei wanted to do.
By chance, Fatty Jia came over and wanted to make a fortune from Qianjia Trading Company.
Now that he is here, Jing Yinuo naturally asks Fatty Jia to go instead. Anyway, Fatty Jia has so many beautiful concubines, and Teng Pei will not really let Mrs. Teng go.
"It's just that Boss Jia is afraid that he has a grudge against me." Jing Yinuo sighed and shook his head. He had to tell his grandfather about this when he went back.
One day later, at the gate of Cangzhou City.
The carriage stopped on the side of the road, and the surroundings were eerily quiet.
It's been a quarter of an hour, why hasn't Xi'er come back yet
Jiang Yuanhan opened the car curtain and took a look, and found that the queue in front of him waiting for inspection was motionless.
"Sister, how about I go down and take a look?"
"No, the situation in Cangzhou is very unclear now. Xi'er went to find out the news openly. The spies have been sent out. We just wait here."
Wen Qingzhu reached out and pulled down the car curtain.
After waiting for another half-quarter of an hour, Xi'er hurried back.
After getting in the car, she rested for a long time and drank two glasses of water before talking about the situation at the door.
"Madam, I have heard that Princess Runan was assassinated the night before yesterday. Now the whole city is on guard and no one can enter easily."
"Princess Runan was assassinated?" Wen Qingzhu thought of the letter written by Zhang Ke, fearing that there was another hidden meaning in this matter.
She asked again: "How long do I have to wait in line?"
Xi'er frowned again: "It seems that you can't get in by queuing up. There are only a certain number of people entering the city every day. I spent some money to inquire and they said that there are still three places left to enter the city. I'm afraid it won't be possible. It’s our turn.”
"In that case, let's rest in an inn outside the city." Wen Qingzhu didn't mind at all. Anyway, the Wu Clan's headquarters is no longer in Cangzhou City.
After changing direction, Wen Qingzhu came to stay at an inn outside the city.
When they arrived at the entrance of the inn, Hu Sen rode his horse to the side of the car.
"Madam, instead of staring at Cangzhou City, we should go to Yuhua Town, which is closest to the Wu Clan."
Wen Qingzhu opened the car curtain and asked him: "As far as I know, there is nothing unusual in Yuhua Town."
"Madam, believe me once. Yuhua Town is the focus of our visit this time."
Looking at Hu Sen's firm eyes, Wen Qingzhu nodded and ordered the convoy to go to Yuhua Town.
No one in Cangzhou was notified of the arrival of their group, but many people in Cangzhou were indeed watching them.
After walking for half a day, they finally arrived at Yuhua Town.
This town is closer to the mountains, and the temperature is lower than that of Jinzhou and Cangzhou.
Xi'er took out a cloak and put it on Wen Qingzhu before getting off the carriage.
They did not stay in an inn, but came to a mansion that looked somewhat elegant.
A man who looked like a butler came to greet them at the door.
Hu Sen came out with a sign, and the housekeeper led them in diligently.
Wen Qingzhu stood next to him and took a look. The brand was that of Qianjia Trading Company.
It seems that Teng Pei has always wanted to come back, otherwise he would not buy such a house in Yuhua Town, a small town with a courtyard.
After they were settled, Hu Sen sent someone to invite them to the lobby to gather.
After entering, Wen Qingzhu found that a strange old man was also there.
His attire is different from the rest of the people here.
He wears a dark blue cloth scarf on his head and wears traditional clothes of the Wu tribe. He squints his eyes and holds a cigarette pole in his withered right hand, smoking one after another.
Seeing Wen Qingzhu and others coming over, Hu Sen introduced: "This is Grandpa Ha, the second grandpa's old friend."
Then he introduced to Old Man Ha: "This is Mrs. Fu, and the person next to her is His Highness Prince Rui of Daqi."
The old man took a long puff of cigarette, then blew out the smoke ring, put the cigarette rod on his waist, and stood up.
"Madam, I've been waiting for you for a long time." The old man opened his eyes, shining brightly, "Long Dai is not worthy of holding the power of the clan leader. She will only lead the Wu clan to destruction!"
Wen Qingzhu looked at the old man and asked, "Who do you think, Grandpa Ha, can lead the Wu clan to prosperity?"
"Him!" Old Man Ha pointed at Hu Sen, looking at Hu Sen with eyes full of respect, "Chief Teng, you are the person chosen by the Witch God. Only you can shoulder the future of the Witch Clan!"
"Wait!" Wen Qingzhu had to interrupt him.
Old Man Ha turned around and looked at Wen Qingzhu with a dull and normal look in his eyes: "Madam, please speak."
Wen Qingzhu expressed his doubts: "You said the person chosen by the Witch God, what is going on? Do you know everything about Jinzhou?"
"The old man has lived for more than sixty years. The farthest place he has left is Yuhua Town. Teng Pei begged me to guard this place. I don't know many things about Jinzhou, but I still know about the sacrifice."
Wen Qingzhu was about to ask a question, but Old Man Ha raised his hand and continued: "Madam, don't get me wrong, I am not willing to help you because of the sacrifice in Jinzhou, but because of the priest's witchcraft more than thirty years ago. The clan will face a catastrophe of life and death, and the only people who can lead the Wu clan out of darkness are the future descendants of the Teng family, those with the wood element."
"More than thirty years ago?" Wen Qingzhu noticed this point in time.
Wasn't it just a few years before the Teng family was driven out of Cangzhou
Old Man Ha glanced at Wen Qingzhu and said nothing more, "Now I want to take Patriarch Teng to the altar."
"What about us?" Wen Qingzhu felt that there was something in this old man's words.
"Of course I will protect Patriarch Teng." Old Man Ha said without hesitation.
Wen Qingzhu did not answer, but turned to look at Hu Sen: "You haven't told me about this before."
Hu Sen had obviously just found out. He was stunned for a while and quickly asked Old Man Ha: "Grandpa, didn't you agree to find out the strength of the Long family first? Why do you want to go to the altar all of a sudden? But over there -"
"Teng Sen!" Old Man Ha sternly called out his full name, grabbed his arms with both hands, and said heavily and excitedly, "You are the hope of the Wu Clan! Only you can dispel the darkness of the Wu Clan! Do you understand? !”
"Grandpa Ha..." Although Hu Sen temporarily took over the position of the head of the Teng family, he has nothing now.
Old Man Ha obviously believed in him almost crazily, there was no doubt about it.
Looking at the struggle and hesitation of the two people in front of him, Wen Qingzhu shook his head.
Turning around, he said to Jiang Yuanhan: "Are you hungry? Let's go out and find something to eat."
"Yeah." Jiang Yuanhan obviously didn't want to stay here anymore.
The two were about to leave when Old Man Ha suddenly took out his cigarette rod and stood in front of them: "You must protect Chief Teng!"
This commanding tone made Wen Qingzhu disgusted and disdainful.
"Grandpa Ha, you may have made a mistake. We are not here to protect Hu Sen."
"His name is Teng Sen! His surname is Teng! The second surname of the Wu clan!" Old Man Ha suddenly became furious and used the loudest voice in his life to correct her.
Wen Qingzhu smiled and didn't say anything. He just took Jiang Yuanhan's hand and bypassed Old Man Ha's obstruction.
Just when he was about to make his next move, two black figures appeared and pressed Old Man Ha to the ground.
At the same time, several guards in dark blue clothes suddenly appeared in the lobby. Their faces were covered and they stared at Wen Qingzhu and Jiang Yuanhan with cold eyes.
The cold light of the sword reflected into Wen Qingzhu's eyes, and the smile on his face deepened.
"Stop!" Hu Sen shouted loudly, looking nervously at the people around him.
They were not his people, so naturally they could not be Wen Qingzhu's people with such unrepressed murderous intent.
"Madam! Please let Grandpa Ha go. He is only dedicated to the Wu Clan." Hu Sen knew more things than they did.
But he knew Wen Qingzhu's methods and power better.
Wen Qingzhu looked sideways behind him and said with a smile: "If I don't bring enough people this time, Yuanhan and I may have become the hostages used by Grandpa Ha to threaten the Marquis. Hu Sen, wait until you resolve the matter here before going." Find me at the inn."
After saying these words, more black shadows flashed and silently knocked all the blue-clothed guards unconscious to the ground.
Wen Qingzhu then left here with Jiang Yuanhan.
Half an hour later, in the inn room.
The leader of the Wei family secret guards was reporting the news to Wen Qingzhu: "The entire inn has been cleaned up, and all the people have been replaced by our people. People have been sent out to find out the news about Yuhua Town."
"Well, thank you for your hard work." Wen Qingzhu nodded, and the leader retreated.
After waiting for less than two quarters of an hour, Xi'er came back and brought back two sets of clothes.
"Madam, I have observed it carefully. This is the most common piece of clothing in the town." Xi'er said as she spread it out for Wen Qingzhu to see.
"It is not the traditional clothes of the Wu tribe, nor the clothes common in the Daqi Dynasty. It combines the characteristics of the two clothes and improves them to form its own characteristics and standards."
Also sent over was a set of jewelry.
Wen Qingzhu looked over and saw that the jewelry box contained all silver jewelry, no gold, and no various jewelry.
"Not bad, put it on for us."
Before leaving, Wen Qingzhu told Lu Tao: "If Hu Sen comes over, you don't have to agree yet. You can make decisions and arrangements for the rest of the specific matters."
Lu Tao's injury was not serious, but for the sake of safety, Wen Qingzhu still left her in the inn.
"Don't worry, ma'am, leave this matter to me."
After explaining what happened here, Wen Qingzhu took Jiang Yuanhan and Xi'er to the town.
When they arrived at the main street, there were very few pedestrians and few shops.
