Chapter 823
Shangguan Ning sat up. Although his face was still pale, the spirit between his brows and eyes did not look like a poisoned person at all.

"What the girl said makes sense. As an old man, if I run around here and there, I have to work hard even if I don't have credit. You, a stinky girl, have no conscience."

What a pair of enemies master and apprentice!
"The net has been cast, and the next thing is to wait for the fish to enter the net!"

Yan Mushang's voice removed the previous coldness and coldness, and it sounded a little more lively and naughty than a teenager. It seemed that he was not talking about a scheme, but just fishing with a net on a whim of a teenager.

When Shangguan Jin returned to Jinhuayuan, he immediately summoned Ping Yang. Behind Ping Yang was a short but very clever young man.

"Is this person 'Xinzi'?"

Shangguan Jin sized up the little man standing beside Ping Yang, and his tone was a little uncertain.

"Returning to the general, this person is undoubtedly 'Xinzi'. This person is responsible for the transmission of superstitions in our mansion, private battle reports from the imperial court, secret letters from the military department, and other highly confidential documents."

The little man didn't speak, but just looked at Shangguan Jin with a pair of black bean-like eyes, but in just a short moment, Shangguan Jin was defeated.

To be able to look at myself so boldly and calmly, with calm eyes like water, is not only courage, but also self-confidence.

"Okay, I will hand over this letter to you. This letter must be handed over to me, and my whereabouts must be kept secret so that no one can detect it!"

The little man who was named did not step forward, but looked at Shangguan Jin as before, and Shangguan Jin held the letter in mid-air, very embarrassed.

After a long while, the little man suddenly stretched out a hand, with five fingers stretched straight, and shook it in front of Shangguan Jin but did not answer.

Shangguan Jin was at a loss, not knowing what the other party meant, and suddenly saw Ping Yang pat his head hard with his hand in frustration.

"General, this 'Xinzi' was born deaf-mute, and after receiving advice from an expert, his deafness has improved, but he still can't speak, so...".

Hearing this, Shangguan Jin's face looked a little better. He had nowhere to vent his pent-up anger in Ningyu Pavilion, and now he looked like a frightened bird, unable to bear any stimulation.

"What do you mean? Is it 500 taels of silver?"

The little man gave Shangguan Jin a contemptuous look, then shook his head, and waved those five fingers in front of Shangguan Jin's eyes again.

"Five hundred gold?"

The little man nodded, and then turned around arrogantly, ignoring Shangguan Jin, as if if Shangguan Jin didn't agree, he would turn around and leave.

It's like a lion's mouth!
Five hundred gold is enough for a rich family's living expenses for a year, but it is extremely arrogant to dare to ask for such a price just to send a letter!

Seeing that Shangguan Jin didn't answer for a long time, the little man looked even uglier than Shangguan Jin, raised his fist and saluted Ping Yang, then walked directly towards the door without any intention of turning back.

Shangguan Jin stared dumbfounded at what happened in front of his eyes, no matter what, this matter is of great importance after all, although five hundred gold is a lot, it is still worth it, one must know that the signboard of 'Xinzi' can be worth several thousand taels of gold or even more.

Although it was the first official meeting between Shangguan Jin and Xinzi, they actually cooperated a lot. Many secret letters from the military department were sent to the barracks through this Xinzi.

The letter's transmission method is very mysterious. The letter paper that is thousands of miles away, the letter paper can be delivered within two days, and the ordinary letter paper can be delivered in four or five days even if it is rushed. Therefore, whether it is the imperial court or a private person, If you want Xinzi to send a letter, you have to take out real money, otherwise there is no need to talk.
