Chapter 194
Chapter 194 - This Was Truly a Hobby That Was Completely Different from Ordinary People
He grabbed Yin Xu and let him lean on his shoulder. The other party raised his head and glanced at him, then obediently leaned on Yin Xu without moving.
Tonight's incident had probably caused many people to not be able to sleep. There were quite a few people watching from before the Prefectural Governoment, who knew who the Xuanzhi Mansion would find as their scapegoat in three days.
This person couldn't be a small fry. He still had to fill in the evidence. It was enough to give him a headache.
To even want to meddle in the affairs of the Salt-revenue Management, hmph, what a daydream!
“You're going to let them bite you?” the man on his shoulder asked suddenly.
Teng Yu patted his arm, and adjusted his posture, “Yeah, let's see what that Mu fellow will do first. We already have the evidence in our hands, so we don't need to worry about not being able to beat him, let's make use of him and stir up some trouble.”
“That letter …?”
“Of course it's fake, but it's enough to fake the truth. But I didn't expect that the capable butler would die so straightforwardly. He's quite bold.”
Yin Xu thought: If I don't die today, I will die tomorrow. Rather than dying in front of the disdain of the people, I might as well commit suicide.
They knew that Teng Yu would not casually make a move, but once he said it, there was no turning back.
If he wanted a mere butler to die, would there still be anyone who dared to plead with him?
This was a death trap.
“Let's go out to sea tomorrow. It's all settled. Let's go out and hide, let them cause some trouble.”
Yin Xu chuckled, “Alright, it's good as long as you don't cause too much trouble.”
“Don't worry, I've already made arrangements. When it's time to fan the wind, we'll fan the wind. When it's time to cheer, we'll refuel. When it's time to extinguish the fire, there'll also be people extinguishing the fire.” He had to make sure that the situation went in the direction of his plan. Even if it was a little wrong, it had to be within his control.
By the time Teng Yu had Yin Xu return to his room to rest and discuss things with his subordinates, he already had a plan, but he would have to carry it out step by step so he had to make detailed arrangements.
It wasn't until the sky brightened that Teng Yu finally walked out of his study. He discovered that he didn't know whether he had just woken up or had not slept at all, he was already practicing his martial arts in the courtyard.
Yin Xu's body was not very strong, and was clear and thin. He was only fourteen years old, and was not fully grown, only reaching his chin.
Teng Yu stood there and watched for a while. Then, his interest was piqued, and he took the opportunity to sneak an attack on from behind while he was moving backwards.
Yin Xu looked as if he had eyes on the back of his head, his body nimbly retreated to dodge Teng Yu's attack, his eyebrows raised, and then formed a new stance, hooking his fingers at Teng Yu.
“Haha …” “Come!” Teng Yu bellowed as he punched towards Yin Xu's face. The other party tilted his head and blocked the punch with his palm.
The fist and palm collided, and a powerful force rebounded from the point of contact. The two quickly retreated, lowering their numb arms.
It was quiet. The guards who had yet to leave gathered around to watch.
Many of the guards in Third Prince Mansion had seen these two's martial arts, but the three hundred and fifty people who had just joined didn't have this chance.
In the past, they had heard quite a few stories about how strong the Seventh Young Master Huo was, but they had never experienced it personally.
However, those with discerning eyes could see that the move was not ordinary. A few deep footprints were left on the ground, and the flowers, plants, and trees around the two of them had all fallen. This showed just how powerful they were.
“Who will win?” someone whispered to the people around him.
Those who could stand here were all leaders who were trusted and trusted by Teng Yu, so they weren't afraid of being mocked by the two masters.
“I bet that Seventh Young Master will win. He can defend against thousands upon thousands of enemies by himself, how can Third Prince be his match?”
“Idiot, that means an array, do you think the Seventh Young Master has an array? With just your martial arts, I think that Third Prince is better. After all, he's older. “
Yin Xu's face was simply too delicate, he was just a young man who had just risen to the top. Those who had never seen him take action would simply not be able to imagine his power.
“How come I've never heard that the Third Prince has such good skills? Normally, the deeper you hide, the more powerful you will be, and I too will bet on Third Prince's victory! “
The few high-ranking officers argued for a while, but only then did they realize that the rest of them were not involved in their discussions. They had strange smiles on their faces.
Someone could not help but whisper to a friend who had a good relationship with him, “What's the situation? “What's with your expressions?”
The person smiled mysteriously, “Don't ask, you'll know after reading. Don't be in a hurry to place your bet.”
These words were said in an inexplicable manner. There were always victories in battle. If there was a choice between the two, then was there any other situation?
However, this doubt did not last for long. The two people in the middle of the arena finally stopped after an hour of intense fighting. Some colors were hanging on their bodies, but the outcome of the battle was not clear.
“A draw!” Are you for real? ” Don't tell me that Third Prince deliberately gave in?
Someone laughed out loud and slapped him on the shoulder, “Stop guessing blindly, these two grandfathers have never fought or won before, don't you see that we don't even want to bet? It's always a draw, so there's nothing to bet on. “
All the men in the army worshipped the strong. Although the guards sent by the emperor were all subdued by Yin Xu temporarily, they were still worried, and did not look down on Yin Xu at all.
General and civil officials were fundamentally different. To tame them, one fist was more than enough.
Now that Yin Xu had displayed such powerful fighting strength, the newly recruited guards felt their blood boiling, and they all wished that they could go up on stage to personally learn from him.
Yin Xu did not know how they would brag and brag about themselves to the rest of the guards, but when he returned from the sea, he realized that they were looking at him differently. Of course, this was something that came after.
After Yin Xu and Teng Yu returned to their room to take a bath, they ate breakfast and then had someone catch a carriage to rush directly to the dock.
Cloud Bridge Pier had a dock specially used for carrying passengers. At the moment, it was the busiest time of the day. Ships were coming in and out of the pier, and the wind sail was everywhere. Horns sounded one after another.
On the blue surface of the sea floated many fine or rough boats. The passengers were hurrying, the boatmen were all smiling, and along the way, there were all kinds of small vendors selling goods to passersby.
Yin Xu realized that even in this kind of stall, he could still see some overseas items, and the price was not expensive either.
Teng Yu had asked about the price along the way, wanting to take a look at everything that he found pleasing to the eye. Don't look at him as a noble prince, the things he knew might not be more than the little peddlers here.
Yin Xu looked at the usually calm and steady man who was like a six year old child, hanging around in various stalls as the corners of his mouth unconsciously raised into a faint smile.
When the merchants saw Teng Yu's luxurious temperament, his clothes was bright, and groups of guards behind him, they had long treated him as a fat sheep. The price of his goods had risen exponentially, bragging about how nothing in the world could compare to his status.
Teng Yu was not a playboy who did not understand human life. After walking down the street, he had already determined which things were real and which ones were fake. Whether the prices were reasonable or not, and whether the things in his hands were still cheap and good.
“Young master, come and look at my family's jewelry. Pick one and give it to your wife. She will definitely be satisfied with it!” A young man shouted at Teng Yu from afar.
Teng Yu looked towards the direction of the voice and saw a wooden stall that was covered in red silk. There were a lot of jewelry and accessories on it and from a distance, it looked really pretty.
Teng Yu looked at Yin Xu teasingly and asked: “Madam, do you want to choose one to wear?”
Yin Xu rolled his eyes as he walked to the front of the stall ahead of him, and lowered his head to fiddle with the goods on the stall.
“Heh, has this little gongzi been betrothed before? “Choose a hairpin and gift it to your beloved one. I guarantee that she will be completely devoted to you. These are all authentic overseas goods and we will never find another one in our Da Liang sect.”
Yin Xu raised his head to look at him, creased his brow, and said with disdain: “You're so noisy!”
“…” Ah, that… “Take a look at yourself, take a look at yourself …”
Teng Yu smiled as he walked over. He placed a hand on Yue Yang's shoulder and took a wooden sculpture from him.
“This is …” Elephant? ” Teng Yu asked, he had only seen the description in the records, so it looked like this.
“That's right, that's right. Young master is truly knowledgeable, there are very few people like us who know of elephants. In the sea, they seem to like and respect their most respected species. Setting up an elephant eagle at home means that our luck is auspicious and good.”
Yin Xu had never seen this kind of creature before.
“Are there any living beings for sale?” he asked.
“This… Young Master wishes to buy a living elephant? ” The stall owner's mouth dropped open in surprise.
“Nonsense, could it be that this young master really wants to buy a small wooden sculpture and leave it behind?” Yin Xu curled his lips in disdain.
Hehe, this little one won't be able to help, but this little one's great-uncle is always on the boat, so this little one can help you take note of it.
Although the stall owner really wanted to earn this money, it wasn't easy for him to transport a elephant in, and it was even harder for him to make it ashore alive.
And would this young master really like such a big thing? This was truly a hobby that was different from ordinary people!
Just as he was about to nod his head, he was stopped by Teng Yu. He casually took two wood carvings, threw down a piece of silver and pulled Yin Xu away.
Looking at Yin Xu's blank expression, Teng Yu unnaturally said, “That thing … We have no place to raise them. It'll be hard to transport them back to the capital once we get there, so we might as well just die on the road. It's quite a pity. “
“…” What kind of explanation was this? Yin Xu curled his lips, “It's fine if I don't want to buy it, but this young master wants to see them alive!”
Teng Yu thought for a moment, then nodded his head and agreed. He muttered in his heart: Should I find some time to bring him to the Southern Wilderness?
