Emperor Phoenix

Chapter 16

"Huang Meng?" Qi Fan looked at Rong Xiaotian in a daze, "Is the girl looking for someone? Is there anyone with this name here?"

Rong Xiaotian rolled his eyes, "Why should I help you find someone I don't know?"

Qin Changge smiled again, "The phoenix of the phoenix, the alliance of the Yuemeng."

Qin Changge smiled again, "The phoenix of the phoenix, the alliance of the Yuemeng."

This time Qi Fan couldn't pretend either.

"Who are you?" Qi Fan's smile this time seems to be superficial, "I would like to advise the girl that it is better to be cautious in words and deeds here, otherwise, no matter how sympathetic I am, I will have to give the girl away for free The coffin."

Qin Changge ignored him and looked around, "There are no chairs and no cup of tea. Is this the way of hospitality?"

"Oh," Qi Fan stretched out his hand, and said sincerely: "Our shop is a coffin shop, so naturally we want to do a full business of coffins. There are no tables and chairs in the shop, only coffin ears, big and small. How about tea... how about sugar?"

Qin Changge looked around, without changing his face, hooked his feet, dragged a small coffin and sat down, and said with a light smile, "Stop making trouble, let's take a look at this."

A black jade token is carved out of layers of clouds and pavilions, and the sun is rising in the east. During this time, a flying phoenix soars with clear wings and feathers. The eyes of the flying phoenix are inlaid with fire rubies, shining brightly and beautifully.

The phoenix occupies most of the entire token, and the mountains, rivers, sun, moon, palaces and towers are all under its feet under its wings.

Black jade and red crystals, radiant and flowing, lying in the palm of the snow-white palm, it is really a beautiful scene.

But Qi Fan Rong Xiaotian is not in the mood to appreciate the beauty and tenderness.

Seeing the token is like seeing the Lord.

The two jumped up with a whoosh, Qiqi's face changed.

Rong Xiaotian even changed his voice, "Who are you! Why do you have the Phoenix order!"

Back then, when the empress died, they sneaked into the palace to rescue the young master. They all saw the master's body with their own eyes. At that time, he wanted to take the master's body away, but it was Qi Fan who resisted, saying that the master would not care about these things. If he took the master's body away The corpse aroused the emperor's doubts and implicated the Phoenix Alliance, so I am sorry for the master. Before leaving, Qi Fan chose a tall eunuch, cut off his head and shoulders, and threw him into the center of the fire where the fire was the most intense. He said that with that kind of fire, When it was extinguished, the corpse would definitely be shrunk into a ball and could not be clearly identified. The part of the head and shoulders was probably the length of a baby. The eunuch's body was incomplete, presumably even a eunuch would not attract attention, he must have thought it was burned and gone away.

At that time, he was helping Qi Fan chop up and drag the corpse, and when he passed by the empress, he saw how miserable her death was, and he cut off the eyes, the bloody long knife pierced from the back and the front abdomen, and the blood-stained golden dial at the throat... ...I just feel that the strength of my whole life seems to flow away like water when it touches those once bright eyes that have now become blood holes.

Qi Fan's face was also as white as a dead man...

Oh, by the way, there is also Feihuan, Feihuan...a person who is usually so indifferent, he would ignore his master, but at that moment he was staring at the corpse, his expression could never be described in words.

Master is dead, it is absolutely true!
And the place where the tokens are stored behind Shanglin's Nunnery is an arrangement of the master to prepare for a rainy day. There are many traps, and only the three masters in the world know about it!
Is it non-huan?
However, that night, when they found that Feihuan was behaving suspiciously and questioned him, he didn't say a word and refused to answer any questions. Later, they got the evidence in black and white in grief and indignation, and found that he was in collusion with the palace. He confessed that he was sorry for the Queen's words, and in extreme anger, he killed him, and what Fei Huan held on his back was his God Extinguishing Palm, passed on by his master himself, even gods can be destroyed, let alone him with a mortal body!

He is dead.

Who is that, who is she?
Qin Changge's eyes turned, seeing their urgent expressions, he was a little moved, and said softly: "I am a maid in the palace, named Mingshuang. Empress Ruiyi once told me something before she was alive."

Qi Fan twitched his lips, "The Queen will not easily tell anyone about the Phoenix Alliance, what evidence do you have?"

Shaking the token in his palm, Qin Changge smiled, "This is the evidence."

"Did the queen ask you to come?"

"nature."

"Then why did you come after three years?"

"This is the queen's order. She is very intelligent, how can I guess her intention?"

Qi Fan frowned, feeling in his heart that it was possible for the master to act unpredictablely, not to mention the woman in front of him, even though he had followed her for many years, sometimes he still couldn't figure out her true thoughts.

Maybe... the master had foreseen it a long time ago, and buried the future in advance?

Seeing Qi Fan's fluctuating and self-persuading expression, Qin Changge smiled slightly, knowing that it would be best and most convenient to put all the reasons on the dead ghost.

She forgot that the "dead ghost" was actually herself.

Heh... Qin Changge thought with a smile, I am so kind and considerate of my subordinates, I am afraid that these strange things will scare them, and I have to bother to make up my identity.

She automatically ignored the fact that she was just trying to play tricks.

Someone who has always emphasized that he is a good person, but in fact he is not a good person at all, with an evil smile...

After accepting the identity, the next step will be much easier.

Huangmeng, originally built by Qin Changge, is extremely secretive, and has always been under the banner of a merchant, so it seems to be an ordinary merchant.

Xiao Jue vaguely found out that she had power outside the palace. According to the most reasonable thinking, Qin Changge must have established a martial arts power. With her intelligence, the martial arts power she established must also be the fastest growing and largest. Join the most powerful Blazing Gang at present.

But he didn't know that what Qin Changge wanted was to keep a low profile and keep calm.

Huangmeng started as the most common wood store, and Qi Heng, Qi Fan's younger brother, came out to the outside world and called it "Heng Ji". It first trafficked wood from Yan State to Liang State to make profits from it, and opened a coffin store at first. Of course, it was Qin Chang Ge's bad taste, her coffin shop has good wood, fine workmanship, and reasonable price. Leaving the country, and then transporting back the coral pearls that are sold all over the street in Liguo, recruiting a group of skilled craftsmen in Zhongchuan along the way, bringing them back to Xiliang with high salaries, carefully making jewelry with good quality, and selling them to the palace and wealthy families , The poor quality ones have also been carefully arranged in patterns, and they are clearly displayed in the shop. The styles are ingenious and the prices are reasonable, so people have to pay money.

Sometimes when Qin Changge was happy, he would personally design patterns and have them made by craftsmen. After wearing them twice, they would immediately become popular in Xiliang, and Hengji's jewelry shop would be the first to put out exactly the same patterns as those worn by the queen. Jewelry, Qin Changge ordered, you can’t make more, at most five pairs, no price, the highest price gets it, the so-called rare is the most expensive, so every time jewelry comes out, the city is immediately rushed to grab it, high-ranking officials and nobles. Ladies and gentlemen, I have sent house slaves to guard the shop door all night, often beating their heads until they bleed, just to grab the "excellent" bead flower.

There are also shops that are jealous and sell imitations, but after all, they are not as exquisite as Hengji's shop. Over time, only Hengji's jewelry with the red Ling Xiaohua logo on a black background can become a representative of nobility and honor. Wearing the imitations of other shops products, on the contrary, it will provoke ridicule.

As for "buy when it is cheap, sell when it is expensive", buy grain when the grain is harvested and sell silk paint, buy silk and sell grain when silk is on the market, what is "respecting customers like gods, making small profits but quick sales" no matter which big family The first time you come to the door, there must be a profit. What is "knowing the place to win, choosing the place to make money", no matter how far or near, choose a place where commerce is easy to develop, choose more north-south hubs, convenient transportation and water transportation, places where goods go frequently, barter and trade according to local conditions, etc. Tea, salt, silk, and silk are all profitable. All these honest, trustworthy and shrewd businessmen, Huangmeng's business methods have become more and more proficient under the training of Qin Changge, who was born in the Qianjue Clan and who is almost omniscient. Over the past few years, he has developed into a wealthy man who can influence the economic situation of Liang country.

"Miss Ming," after repeatedly asking and probing the past, and even repeatedly setting up traps and clichés. I finally believed that this woman is indeed the Queen's confidant, because there are many things that are not from the Queen's own mouth, no one can know, and the Queen is known to know people, and the people she likes never miss However, Qi Fan, who had settled down, finally poured a cup of tea and placed it on another high coffin, "Looking at your behavior, you can tell that you are extraordinary. I also have absolute trust in Master's vision. Master has been harmed by others. The grief and indignation of the Phoenix League is unspeakable. Over the years, they have been lurking and investigating and planning painstakingly, just to give the enemy a fatal blow at the most favorable time, but the truth is still hidden in the dark, and it is difficult to understand. We are watching the passage of time. , I can't eat, I can't sleep, I can't sleep, but the house leaks and it rains all night. Recently, the Phoenix League has encountered troubles again. Since you are here, it's good. We also have the backbone, so naturally we are not afraid of anything of."

The test is coming, Qin Changge lowered his eyes and smiled, Qi Fan is still a virtuous boy, he seems to be ridiculous, but he is cautious and insidious, how could he easily trust a new master who was parachuted to the Phoenix League?Find some problems to make things difficult, first to see her heart, and second, to see if her style of doing things is worthy of allegiance. If she can't pass the test, Qin Changge believes that Qi Fan is not like Rong Xiaotian, who will be scruples about Huang Ling and the first master's death If he hesitated to defend, he would kick himself away directly, and it would be considered a high incense if he didn't kill himself, an insider.

Qi Fan always only chooses people and things that are most beneficial to the situation, and is not bound by formalities, rules and ethics.

At the beginning, he and Rong Xiaotian were the ones who liked him and Rong Xiaotian. The one was sleek and insidious, and the other was unruly but honest. It was really a good match. Now it seems that it is true. At least, in the few years since her death, the Phoenix Alliance She didn't fall apart, and her son helped her raise her well.
