Miss Fortune: Is the regent ready for today?

Chapter 6 Secret Rules of Auction
"Go. She can go if she likes. I can't control her." The emperor waved his hand, "There is nothing in Shangjing that I don't know about, except for the whereabouts of the unicorn wood."

The little secret guard Hong Yang knelt down after hearing this, "It's Hong Yang who is incompetent. He really can't find out the whereabouts of the treasure."

Mei Chengting was also worried about that thing, so he didn't feel Hong Yang's role and was criticized.

Emperor Chongwen shook his head, "It's not your fault. You studied under the old man Tange, and you are not the old man who is looking for things. If the unicorn wood is so easy to find, the descendants of Shangtianjian will not take the initiative to come to Beijing."

Emperor Chongwen stood up, stretched his back muscles, and comforted the two of them: "It's okay, I'm not in a hurry, and neither are you. Things in this world cannot be forced, and gains and losses are not clear-cut. . I still want to think about how to make the people well fed and clothed!"

Emperor Chongwen returned to the palace accompanied by Hong Yang. Mei Chengting saw him off and asked before leaving: "When did your majesty become so open-minded?"

"If you lose too many people, maybe you won't care about things anymore. Dead things are not as valuable as living people after all. You should go back and rest early."

Mei Chengting stopped and bowed, "Have a good sleep, Your Majesty."

Not long after, Yin Luo, who had gone to "catch mice", returned to the house. At this moment, Yu Feng and Yu Ruyi were drinking tea in the hall to relieve their sleepiness. Seeing her return, Yu Ruyi stopped yawning halfway and quickly asked her: "How about it?"

Yin Luo frowned, with a lot of thoughts in her eyes. She sat down at the table, "This man is very good at martial arts. I almost lost him a few times. He took me around half of the capital. I feel like this It’s not a solution. If you deliberately fall behind, he may think that he has flicked his tail and returned to the nest.”

Yu Feng and Yu Ruyi both looked at her and asked in unison: "Who sent you?"

Yin Luo raised his eyes and said, "Tingxianlou."

Yu Ruyi gradually frowned, "It shouldn't be... Tingxianlou is just a restaurant. What are they doing by sending people to the house? In the absence of power disputes, is it possible that they are jealous of my wealth and are afraid that I will open a business in Shangjing? A restaurant bigger than theirs?”

Yin Luo held his forehead and was quite speechless at Yu Ruyi's guess. She was stunned for a while and only said: "No matter what, we have to go to the Tingxian Building auction in three days."

The first night in Beijing passed like this.

At midnight the next day, someone from Antais sent an invitation.Meng Kong, the gatekeeper disciple, took the invitation and walked quickly to the main hall, and saluted Yu Ruyi who was having breakfast in the hall, "Sixth Young Master, someone outside sent an invitation, saying it is for you."

Yu Ruyi quickly swallowed the pastries in her mouth, wiped her hands with a Su Jin handkerchief, and then took the invitation. He glanced at the gold and ink "Tingxian Building" on the invitation, and couldn't help but smacked his lips. With his reputation in the world After so many years of experience, and looking at the style of this invitation, we can deduce that the owner of Tingxianlou must be very rich...

When Meng Kong saw the invitation delivered to his hand, he cupped his hands and was about to leave. Yu Ruyi nodded, but she was scornful in her heart. How could Yu Feng let the people around his second brother guard the door?If the second brother knew that the secret guard around him was actually used to guard the door, he would definitely be very angry.With this in mind, he stuffed the invitation into the secret pocket in his sleeve.

Yin Luo didn't know when she was standing in front of the antique rack in the main hall, and she also brought a sky-blue jade rockery ornament. She placed the jade mountain, looked at Yu Ruyi, and suddenly said: "Tell you something, Something happened on the Pingjin Plank Road."

"What does it have to do with me?" Yu Ruyi blurted out, and then immediately realized that this sentence was wrong.He stood up in a hurry, looked at Yin Luo and frowned, "How could something happen on the Pingjin Plank Road?"

Yin Luo looked as expected, "Of course it's because of you." She walked to the table, took out some Sanshan jade leaves from the Jingshan porcelain tea can and sprinkled it into the pot to make tea, "It wasn't when we entered Beijing. Have you passed by the Pingjin Plank Road? Do you still remember that you got off the car to collect interest? "

Yu Ruyi frowned, "Why does something happen if I charge interest?"

"Those who didn't find the treasure from us would naturally suspect that you had left the treasure on the Pingjin Plank Road." Yin Luo finished brewing a pot of tea, but she was still calm and relaxed, "They went to Pingjin Plank Road to look for it. The treasure was stolen, and many people in your shop were injured...your Yusi pawn shop was also smashed."

Yu Ruyi took a deep breath, "Is anyone dead?"

Yin Luo shook her head, "That's not true. Second brother sent someone in time." She poured a cup of tea for Yu Ruyi, "Don't you go and rebuild your pawn shop?"

After hearing this, Yu Ruyi ignored her words. He decisively took out the ruby ​​abacus he carried with him and muttered something.After Yin Luo finished drinking a cup of tea, he suddenly let out a long sigh, "This year's interest has been in vain again."

"Why do you have to go to Tingxianlou? Want to take a picture of that thousand-year-old snow mountain ginseng?"

"That's a priceless good medicine. Getting it is equivalent to getting a thousand taels of gold..."

Yin Luo laughed, "You don't have to tell me the reason." She stared at Yu Ruyi, "Are you really not afraid of death for the sake of unicorn wood? Do you know that if you really take a picture of that snow mountain ginseng, we will Will be pushed to the tip of the knife." Daliang has introduced a new rule in recent years. Inns in famous cities can hold auctions, and the items auctioned can be herbal medicine, gold, silver, jade, or even famous swords.Some people sell items for auction, while others buy items for auction. The inn mainly serves as an intermediary business, but every auction will involve disputes between different families, cities, and even countries.

Yin Luo went to Jiangbei to participate in an auction the year before last and won a life-saving medicine.However, on her way back to the south of the Yangtze River, she was intercepted and killed several times. If her friends had not been by her side at the time, she would have been killed by herself.

This is the secret rule behind the auction. The person who gets the auction item will be hunted down by all the forces who want the auction item!

"I know. Sister, I won't be the last buyer." Yu Ruyi raised her eyes, with a look that showed the calmness of being in control of everything, but her words were like a joke, "There are many people richer than me in this capital city. yes."

Yin Luo understood what he meant, smiled faintly, lowered his eyes to look at the jade leaves floating in the cup, and replied: "You are being humble."

"Yin Luo? You finally admit that I am rich?" Yu Ruyi raised the corners of her mouth and her eyes brightened, "You have always thought that I am rich, right? Sister?"

Yin Luo lowered his eyebrows and changed the topic when he opened his mouth: "I think this auction is not as simple as it seems. How can there be such a coincidence in the world? We went to Beijing, and then the news came out from Tingxian Building that Snow Mountain Ginseng was going to be auctioned. , is it certain that we will go? But why? None of our siblings are sick and need this medicine, so why do the people behind Tingxian Tower think that we will go? "

"And last night, the man in black sneaked into our courtyard. As you said, Tingxianlou is just a restaurant in Shangjing. Why is it so interested in us? We even sent someone to find out the details. I think, That person should have arrived with An Tai Si Shi and saw An Tai Si Shi entering the house, so he did not dare to act rashly and hid directly in the tree."

Yu Ruyi focused his eyes on the teacup. He thought for a moment and nodded. He agreed with Yin Luo's analysis. At the same time, he also said: "Sister A is right. Tingxianlou's approach does need to be scrutinized. . Although we don’t need the Millennium Snow Mountain Ginseng, we do need the opportunity to get to know the powerful people in Beijing. In other words, Tingxianlou needs the opportunity to get to know us. After all, there are rumors in the world now, and that thing is in our hands. "

Yin Luo and Yu Ruyi raised their eyes at the same time, and their eyes met in the air. Yin Luo narrowed his eyes slightly, "You mean, the purpose of that person's auction of this priceless snow mountain ginseng... is to let us enter Tingxian Tower. ?”

Yu Ruyi nodded, "If that's not the case, then he's not here for us." He chuckled, "Maybe the person I'm looking for will be in Tingxian Building in two days." There was a smile in his eyes. His thoughts became more intense, "Maybe, it's the person behind the scenes."

Yin Luo didn't answer. She picked up the tea cup and felt that although the things that happened in Shangjing seemed unrelated, there must be some connections behind them.Nowadays, she is familiar with the high-ranking officials in the temple, but she is not very familiar with some merchant families. In fact, whether she goes to Tingxianlou or not, it really does not affect what she wants to do.

But Yu Ruyi must go.

The two of them had different purposes for going to Beijing.

All the calculations in her mind were cleared at this point. Why do you think so much?If Yu Ruyi wanted to go, she would just go with him.

We have been together in the rivers and lakes for several years, and now we should also share life and death.

Tingxianlou, which was mentioned repeatedly in the two people's conversations, seemed a little uneasy at the moment.

Since the news of the auction spread, the Lianbao Pavilion in the backyard of Tingxian Building has welcomed several groups of unruly people who want to steal snow mountain ginseng. Chi Ye and Nie Renxi were standing in front of the window of Nianling Pavilion on the top floor. , looking down at the Nie family's secret guards who had just beaten out a few more people.

"Sir, the Yin Mansion also received an invitation this morning, but it wasn't from our people, it was from Antais."

"As expected." Seeing that there was nothing to see in the courtyard, Chi Ye lazily walked back to the pavilion and said, "Nie Renxi, tell me, how powerful is the Yin family before someone from Antaisi can do it?" Where are they sending an invitation to the restaurant auction?"

"Is it true that as the young master said, that thing is really in their hands?" Nie Renxi immediately rejected his idea, "If it is really in their hands, it stands to reason that Antais would not be able to treat it with such courtesy. , I have seen the way that Mei Si of Antaisi handles things too many times. He will not deal with others... I really want to meet these Yin family siblings to see what kind of people they are, who can go to Beijing. It caused such a big storm, but Antais was willing to protect him."

Chi Ye smiled, took a brocade ropa from the tea table, unfolded it, and a golden needle appeared in front of the two of them. Nie Renxi frowned, took it in the palm of his hand and inspected it, but found a dense carving on the slender needle. He squinted to identify the pattern, but he couldn't tell what pattern it was.

"It's a lotus." Chi Ye said. He relaxed and leaned on the soft brocade beside the tea table. He was full of nobility, like a real dragon walking down from heaven. He saw Nie Renxi's surprised expression and lowered his eyes. , telling him: "I once heard the fourth child of the Thirteen Yanrong Guards say that there once was a second princess in Daliang. She was the sister of the current Emperor Chongwen. She was trained as a supervisor and she was very good at using needles. She could break a needle with one needle. She has the martial arts skills of a hundred people, and any needle that comes out of her hand will be engraved with peonies on the needle body. She has now disappeared from the world."

After hearing this, Nie Renxi asked, "What about this golden needle?"

"It was made by the sister of the Yin family."
