"My guard, the one with white hair...Jiang Yingxue, he recognized him."
As he said this, Zhang Houde scratched his head and smiled sheepishly.
"One of them is... hehe... the beauty who captured you is the wife of the sect leader of the Qinglian Sword Sect."
"She is also the adopted sister of Lu Changfeng, the governor of Daxia Yuzhou, Mu Qingyan! Why don't you know?"
"hiss..."
One sentence made Liu Damin take a breath instantly.
Just now, I still had a little doubt in my mind, but now it's all cleared up.
The wife of Nangong Sect Master and the adopted sister of Mr. Lu, the governor of Yuzhou.
Most of them came on behalf of Daxia officials.
The black jade customs order that the other woman was holding just now was something that could only be obtained by an imperial envoy.
Fortunately, I have been an official on the ground in Kyoto for so many years, and I will never admit my mistakes.
Thinking about it this way, could it be that His Highness wants to form an alliance with Daxia to fight against King Zhenxi together?
Recently, there have been wild rumors that His Highness is planning to form an alliance with Daxia.
After all, the war ahead is unfavorable, and most of the country has fallen into the hands of King Zhenxi.
The rebels are now at their peak, and His Highness cannot resist them no matter what.
Thinking of this, Liu Damin smacked his lips, thinking that this was what happened.
It seems that the alliance with Daxia is true, and the fact that those three people are royal emissaries is also true.
Liu Damin was secretly happy. This time, he really got close to a big tree?
In this case, for the sake of my own success, and for my own glorious future in the future.
This matter needs to be kept secret even more!
Thinking of this, Liu Damin couldn't help but feel secretly afraid.
The look he looked at Zhang Houde became even more sinister.
Mad... these two idiots almost killed me!
Liu Damin shook his head noncommittally and said vaguely: "Ah... no, no, no... that's not the case."
"Isn't that the case?" Zhang Houde blinked blankly: "Then...then why did you..."
Before he finished speaking, he was interrupted by Liu Damin's hand.
He said impatiently: "Okay, okay, don't ask anymore, this time, just consider yourself unlucky."
"Knowing too much is not good for you!"
After saying that, he got up and walked out.
Zhang Houde behind him opened his mouth, but didn't dare to say anything.
After all, the people do not fight against the officials, so no matter how rich Zhang Houde's family is, they still have to curry favor with them.
Especially since this Liu Damin is the brother-in-law of the Supervisor of the Coast Guard Department of Pinghai County, he cannot be offended.
Watching his leaving figure, Zhang Houde touched his chin and started thinking.
If you think about it carefully, this guy probably took advantage of those three people.
Maybe, his pair of high-quality bracelets have already fallen into his hands!
I secretly cursed Liu Damin in his heart for being a greedy guy.
After receiving such a huge benefit from his own family, he is still such a bastard.
Speaking of which, my treasure appraiser went to great lengths to find this pair of ancient bracelets from a mountain village.
It is said that there are some secrets in it, so I asked myself to take someone to escort me back first.
That's good, the chicken didn't steal and lost the rice.
Zhang Houde sighed regretfully, thinking that if he went back, would he be beaten to death by his own father?
"Hmph! It's all Jiang Yingxue's fault!"
Zhang Houde took a sip of tea bitterly and couldn't help but mutter: "What kind of Hanshan silver painting is this? It's worse than bullshit."
Then he suddenly remembered: "Hey? Where is Jiang Yingxue?"
Then I thought about it carefully, oh...it seemed like he was detained, and I never saw him come out again.
Zhang Houde curled his lips, maybe he was dead.
Those people were so vicious that it was possible that they would take it out on him.
He sighed secretly, just die, he is just a waste, if he is gone, just hire another one.
Just as I was thinking about it, there was sudden movement outside the door.
"Master?"
"Um?"
Zhang Houde, who was sulking on the table, looked up when he heard the sound.
I saw a man with a sly eyebrow standing at the door, peering into the house.
It was his own personal communication, Zhang Goudan.
From the time of the conflict on the passenger ship until just now, this guy has not been seen. Now he is safe and has come out.
Zhang Houde was so angry that he stood up and took three steps at a time to reach the door.
He grabbed Zhang Goudan by the ears and dragged him fiercely into the house: "You are such a bitch!"
"Where did you hide during the fight just now? You just came out now!"
Zhang Goudan was in pain and quickly begged for mercy: "Ouch... Master, have mercy on me. Master, have mercy on me..."
"That gang of people is so vicious, and they are young and don't have much skill. How dare they come forward?"
"Hey! You are so stubborn!" Zhang Houde was furious and there was no way around him.
He was hitting Zhang Goudan's butt hard with both feet, and the hand that was twisting his ears never relaxed.
He was still cursing: "I'll beat you like an unfaithful dog slave...I'll beat you like a dog slave..."
"Ouch, ouch... Master, please forgive me..."
Zhang Goudan quickly shouted and begged for mercy: "Little... I have a plan to relieve the young master's anger, and maybe I can get the treasure back!"
"Huh?" Zhang Houde was stunned when he heard this: "You little slave, what's your plan?"
Then he let go of Zhang Goudan, turned around and sat on the Grand Master's chair: "Let's talk and listen..."
"Hey..." Zhang Goudan smiled flatteringly, bowed forward, poured a cup of tea for Zhang Houde, and handed it over respectfully.
Then he came behind him and gently beat his shoulders.
He whispered: "Young Master, in my humble opinion, Master Liu has probably accepted the benefits of those three people."
"If he is a big shot, given our relationship with him, why didn't he say something nice to you just now?"
"Well...I know that..."
At this time, Zhang Houde was leisurely leaning on his chair and closing his eyes to rest.
Hearing this, he sighed slightly: "Besides, I think that the bracelet is probably in his hand, so you continue..."
Zhang Goudan smiled appropriately, stretched out his thumb and patted his butt.
"Young master is indeed wise, but I think the treasure is not in Mr. Liu's hands."
"Oh? But why?" Zhang Houde was a little confused.
Zhang Goudan behind him hurriedly explained: "Think about it, those three people worked so hard to defraud you of the bracelet. Naturally they know how precious the treasure is, how could they let it go so easily?"
"Besides, Mr. Liu is a martial artist. If you give it to him, he may not know the goods, right?"
"So, the villain thinks that those three people just gave him a lot of money."
"Oh?" Zhang Houde looked happy when he heard this: "So... the baby is still in the hands of those three thieves?"
"Yes, yes...Young master is so wise!"
Zhang Goudan hurriedly flattered and whispered: "But think about it, even though it is paid to do things, it is only on the surface."
"Can Mr. Liu still protect them for the rest of his life? Even if they want to, Mr. Liu is not stupid."
Zhang Houde was stunned when he heard this, and asked thoughtfully: "Then what do you mean..."
