Chapter 917 Got Some Clues

Chapter 917 Got Some Clues

In the next few days, Wei Congxi and Shi Luo walked around Baita City when they had nothing to do, shopping and seeing the scenery.

The prince went out all day and didn't know what he was doing.

Shi Luo was tired from shopping, so he said, "There's a shop over there, let's go get something to eat."

Wei Congxi naturally agreed.

This is a shop that sells mutton soup. The mutton is stewed rotten, and the mouthful is full of fragrance, and the happy eyes are shining.

Wei Congxi felt that it was far worse than what Shi Luo had done.

Two people were drinking soup, and a few people entered noisyly outside.

They were dressed like soldiers, and they were quite arrogant. They scolded the boss as soon as they came in, so the boss naturally didn't dare to offend them.

A few people sat at the table in the middle, looked around, one of them saw Shi Luo, and as soon as his eyes lit up, he winked at the people around him. They turned their heads, glanced at Shi Luo, stood up, and looked at Shi Luo. They come over.

Shi Luo knocked on the table, and said to Wei Congxi, "A beauty is a disaster."

It's so beautiful, it's not a good thing.

Wei Congxi saw that they were soldiers, her eyes narrowed, and when those people approached, Wei Congxi was still drinking mutton soup leisurely.

"Little lady, why don't you go have a drink with me?"

Shi Luo smiled at them: "Who are you? I don't eat with ugly people."

Those few people were not angry, but felt that Shi Luo had personality.

"Brothers are the defenders of this White Tower City, as long as the little lady is willing to have a drink with the brothers, it will be of your benefit."

Shi Luo was surprised: "Defender? Don't you need to be on duty now?"

A few people were stunned again, they came to tease women from good families, why did they ask about work?
"Don't worry, little lady, although we have errands, we still have time to spend with you."

As these people talked, their eyes became more unscrupulous. They found that this little lady was more beautiful when viewed from a close distance.

As for Wei Congxi who was sitting with his back to them, he was just a little boy, no, seeing them, he was so scared that he didn't even dare to fart.

Shi Luo dragged his cheeks and shook his head: "I'm sorry, big brothers, I'm afraid I can't accompany you to eat, or my husband will be unhappy."

After these people heard this, they wanted to arrest Wei Congxi, but before they could move their hands, they were grabbed and taken out.

The remaining few people also quickly disappeared.

Wei Congxi put down the mutton soup in his hand, and frowned at Shi Luo.

Shi Luo said with a guilty conscience: "A beauty is a disaster..."

This episode was also seen by outsiders.

The person outside said to the other person in a deep voice: "Go and report the news to the general, saying that they have arrested Zhang's guard."

"Yes."

The man ran happily.

It didn't take long for Xue Shao to know the news.

Xue Shao said: "I see, you guys continue to stare.

After the man left, the personal guard said: "General, that's great, Zhang Shoubei's bastard, this time he kicked the iron plate, dared to tease the princess, he's a bastard, if he doesn't die, he has to peel off his skin."

Xue Shao asked, "What is the prince doing?"

"Just walking around, I don't know what to do, it looks like I'm here to play."

Xue Shao lowered his eyes and said, "The prince of Nanyue is not a fool."

He's not here to play.

Xue Shao was not surprised by the demise of the Great Zhou, but it was too fast.

But if you think about it carefully, you can understand that the Emperor Da Zhou was suspicious, and his sons were suppressed one by one, and they grew crooked since they were young.

On the other hand, in Nanyue, Xiao Shen had the courage to leave the affairs of the court to the prince, and several princes of the Xiao family were all supported by the prince, unlike Da Zhou, who only knew how to fight.

Qin Wei said: "General, if we are like this, will the crown prince blame us?"

This is what he is most worried about, he is worried for Xue Shao, that is the prince, the future emperor.

The general is not giving the prince face, he is worried that the prince will hate the general in the future.

Xue Shao looked at the flickering candles blown by the wind and said, "Keep an eye on it, and send more people to protect them."

In the past few days, the prince has really gained something.

For example, this White Tower City is indeed lively and prosperous, but there are also many people who are not doing their jobs.

There are many hooligans and thieves in the city.

The laws of this place seem to be different from other places. It looks peaceful, but there are many dirty things hidden in the dark.

The prince felt that he had touched something, and it happened that Wei Congxi caught some troublemakers and asked them to interrogate.

Wei Congxi's subordinates were very cunning, but those people had a bit of backbone, but in the end they didn't catch up with those cunning methods, and quickly turned the matter over.

They were all Zhang Shoubei's personal soldiers. They used to be in Xue Shao's army. Because they violated the military law, Xue Shao beat them with dozens of sticks and drove them out. Later, they took refuge in Zhang Shoubei.

Zhang Shoubei has many soldiers under his command. These people do evil in Baita City on weekdays. They do some stealthy things, help Zhang Shoubei to oppress the people, and the people dare not speak out. They are already the local emperors of Baita City.

Wei Congxi walked up to the man and asked, "Does General Xue know?"

The man's nose was bruised and his face was swollen from the beating, and he looked at Wei Congxi with fear. Now that Wei Congxi asked him, he said everything he wanted to please.

"Xue Jiandon..."

He paused when he said this, and then changed his words: "General Xue knows that he and Zhang Shoubei have fought many battles these years, but Zhang Shoubei has a backer. When it was the Great Zhou Dynasty, Zhang Shoubei had people in Lanjing. , General Xue is a military general, he has no power to manage local affairs, he is a bit of a righteous person, but he managed it a few times, but failed to please him, and was ginsenged by Zhang Shoubei's people a few times, which aroused the emperor's suspicion."

"Later, there was chaos in the Great Zhou Dynasty. General Xue wanted to take the opportunity to destroy Zhang Shoubei, but who knew that the people of Jin Kingdom came to make trouble. General Xue was busy with the affairs of Jin Kingdom and did not get away. Then the world belongs to Da Yue, Zhang Shoubei With a sudden change, he became a member of the Dayue Dynasty, and now General Xue is also surrendering, so there is nothing he can do about him, although General Xue has soldiers in his hand, but he can't please Zhang Shoubei."

The man came back with confidence, glanced at Wei Congxi and said, "You'd better let us go, otherwise if Zhang Shoubei finds out, you don't even want to leave this White Tower City alive."

Wei Congxi laughed: "You still have some brains."

This person said so much, didn't he just want to prove that Zhang Shoubei's power is so powerful that he wants to suppress them?

Wei Congxi narrowed his eyes and said, "You are not in Cao Ying, are you?"

The man stopped talking.

Wei Congxi smiled, turned around and went out the door, outside the prince had already heard the conversation inside clearly.

"He is from Xue Shao." The prince asked.

Wei Congxi said: "It should be."

Wei Congxi felt that the person just now must be an undercover agent that Xue Shao put next to Zhang Shoubei, and he didn't show up now, just to let the prince and the others investigate by themselves.

If what the person just said is true, then the water in Baita City is deep

It is not worse than the original Pingcheng.

Thinking of Pingcheng, Wei Congxi thought about Xue Shao again.

Was he really just passing by?
Definitely Not.

I didn't think about it at the time, but now that I think about it, Xue Shao would never pass by Pingcheng, so he went there specifically.

He wasn't there at the time, so Xue Shao naturally didn't go looking for him.

Wei Congxi felt that he seemed to have found some clues.
