Chapter 152 Jinling House

(First release, domain name (please remember_) text) The most popular words)

Not far away, there was a carriage waiting here early, and the coachman was a dull man.

Liang Zi explained softly: "He is the raven from our Tingfeng Tower. My identity as the cover in Jinling Mansion is the boss of Liufeng Pavilion. He has been in charge for more than ten years."

Li Xuandu knew in his heart that Liufeng Pavilion is a relatively famous yard in Jinling Mansion. Although it is not as good as the top ones, it is one of the top ones among the second-rate companies. It is neither high nor low, not too eye-catching, and has barely entered the threshold of "primeness" and can hold up and avoid a lot of trouble. As the boss behind Liufeng Pavilion, Liang Zi will have a lot of room for maneuver in his actions.

As for why Liang Zi told Li Xuandu about this, the reason is very simple. Tingfenglou is a business dealer, not a spy. It is just to avoid unnecessary trouble when it is hidden, but it is not really about hiding himself and not letting others know. The powerful and powerful people in the Jinling Mansion must know Liang Zi's identity. Moreover, when doing business, you must pay attention to a long-term flow. Li Xuandu is generous, Tingfenglou regards him as a distinguished guest. Now the briefing is also for the long-term consideration in the future.

The three of them boarded the carriage. From the outside, the carriage seemed to be a little bigger than the carriage. When they entered the carriage, they found that there was another world. There were two exquisite wooden doors behind the curtain. After pushing the door, they saw a small table. The table had all the things needed to make tea, which were fixed with snaps. Even if the carriage was bumpy, they would not be worried about splashing. There was a black carpet under their feet, and the curtains on the windows were made of thin bamboo sheets, which could transmit light, so that the carriage would not be too dark, and people outside would not see the scene in the carriage.

The carriage quickly drove into the Yidao Road and then entered the city from the southeast corner gate of Jinling City.

After entering the city, the carriage did not drive to the south city where Liufeng Pavilion was located, but to the east city.

Jinling Mansion can be roughly divided into four parts: southeast, west and north. Because it faces north and south, the North City is the residence of various yamen and powerful mansions, the South City is the residence of major courtyards and wealthy merchants, the West City is the residence of ordinary people, and the East City is a famous place for trade and trade. There are shops of all sizes, gathering goods from all over the country, all kinds of which can be said to be unexpected and undetected, and it is the most reflecting the prosperous scenery of the southeast.

The largest and most luxurious Guangyuan Inn in Jinling City is located in the East City.

Any such inn is not as simple as a single building, but is equipped with courtyards of all sizes. You can have a single room or rent a single-family courtyard directly. It is the first choice for many wealthy families who travel with their families.

Guangyuan Inn occupied half of the long street because Liangzi had already set up a courtyard. Someone was waiting at the intersection early and then led the carriage into an alley.

Liang Zi explained to Li Xuandu: "There are too many guests coming and going every day, so there are portals in all directions of the inn to facilitate guests' entry and exit."

Sure enough, at the end of the alley was a gate. At this time, the gate had been opened, and an old servant in a small hat was standing at the door.

Liangzi lifted the curtain and walked out of the carriage.

The old servant saluted respectfully: "Mrs. Liang."

Liangzi asked, "Have the room and yard been cleaned up?"

The old servant replied, "Everything has been cleaned up according to your instructions, and we are waiting for the guests to check in."

Mrs. Liang gestured to the coachman.

The coachman understood and drove straight into the carriage.

The courtyard that Liangzi chose for Li Xuandu was called "Maple Leaf Garden". It does not cover a large area, but it is better because of its exquisiteness. There are two maple trees planted in the yard. Unfortunately, it is not autumn now, and there is no sight of red leaves everywhere. The yard is expensive, and it costs ten taels of silver a day, which is almost more than the three-year expenses of an ordinary family of three. Mrs. Liang paid a deposit of three days. If she wanted to live more, she would be embarrassed to follow Tingfeng Lou Ming's style of calculating the accounts, then Li Xuan would have to pay the money himself.

When he entered the yard, Liang Zi waved away the old servant and the friend who led the way before, and personally took Li Xuandu to the main hall of the yard. Because it was an inn, the layout of the main room was different. There was a large glass tank in it, which was stocked with many goldfish. There were carefully cultivated lotus on the water. Perhaps because of the earth dragon charcoal fire in the room, the lotus bloomed lushly and did not wither.

After the three of them sat down, Li Xuandu finally asked the main point: "I wonder where the Governor Qin is now?"

Liang Zi's face was a little solemn. After hesitating for a while, he whispered: "I'm missing."

Li Xuan was stunned, not angry and anxious, but also strengthened his tone: "How could he be missing?"

Liang Zi looked embarrassed: "After the Governor Qin was trapped in Jinling Mansion, he had been living in the Dabaoen Temple in Nancheng. The Governor Jiangnan was always indifferent to this. Until two days ago, the Governor Jiangnan sent someone to invite Qin Xiang to the Governor Jiangnan Palace for a banquet, saying that he wanted to mediate the Governor Qin and Governor Jingchu. From this, the Governor Qin attended the banquet as scheduled, but the result was..."

Li Xuandu asked: "Can you confirm the current location of Governor Qin? Is it the prison of the Niesiya? Or the Governor's Office of Jiangnan?"

Liangzi shook his head.

Li Xuandu took a deep breath and asked again: "What about Governor Qin's subordinates, just watching Governor Qin fall into trouble?"

Liang Zi's expression became more and more serious, and he said, "This is what I really don't understand. The people from Bailianfang had already left after escorting the Governor Qin to Jinling Mansion. At this time, the people following the Governor Qin were all the old subordinates of Governor Qin back then. Logically speaking, these people should be trusted, but..."

"Just what?" Li Xuandu asked, "Is there an insider among these people?"

"I don't know if there is any inner demon." Liang Zi shook his head and said, "But there was no news about the few people who followed Governor Qin to the banquet."

Li Xuandu asked, "All living people, and there is also a great master in the Heavenly Realm. How could he disappear out of thin air? Even if the Governor of Jiangnan set up a Hongmen Banquet, and the Grand Master in the Heavenly Realm personally took charge of setting up an ambush to capture the Qin Governor and his group, he should make some noise, right? How could it be completely silent? Tingfenglou is known for its own affairs in the world. Is it because he is a false reputation?"

Liang Zi said with shame: "We Tingfenglou have begun to investigate the whereabouts of Governor Qin. As long as there is news, we will immediately inform Mr. Li."

Li Xuandu let out a long breath of turbid air: "Things are the only way to go now."

Liangzi stood up from the chair and bowed: "Thank you Mr. Li to be considerate."

Li Xuan stared at Liangzi and changed the subject: "I understand your store, and your store should understand me too. Tingfenglou's signature for more than ten years cannot be ruined in this matter. If your store cannot give me a satisfactory reply within three days, I will have the means to ask for an explanation from your store."

After hearing this, Liangzi could only smile bitterly.

It is said that big shops bully customers, but big customers can bully stores. If you really want to go that point, it is nothing more than just means. However, Tingfenglou is doing business in the world to make money, not to make people angry, so this matter must be given an explanation.

Liang Zi said: "If Mr. Li has nothing else to do, I will take my leave first. Within three days, I will definitely give the master a reply."

Li Xuan didn't even make any sense and stood up and said, "Then Mrs. Liang will be there."

Liu Chen hesitated for a moment, then stood up, bowed to Li Xuan, and then followed Liangzi away from the place.

The two women left when they came on the carriage, leaving only Li Xuandu.

Li Xuandu sat alone on the chair of the Grand Master in the main hall, closed his eyes again, and began to think about the whole thing.

In any case, he couldn't understand why Qin Xiang and others disappeared from the Jiangnan Governor's Mansion out of thin air. Unless there was a master of immortality, he shouldn't have been so silent. But there were only a few people on Lao Xuan's list, and they wouldn't be involved in this matter.

Another thing is that according to Tingfenglou, this incident happened two days ago. In other words, Tingfenglou did not make much progress in this during these two days. Even if they were given three days, they might not be able to find Qin Xiang’s traces.

During these three days, Li Xuan could not just wait, let alone put the eggs in the same basket.

Thinking of this, Li Xuandu had a firm idea in his heart.

The strong dragon crosses the river and does not suppress the snake on the ground. It seems that you still have to meet old friends.
