Shen Gui hid in the dark, watched the head of the barman being trained and nodded again and again, and said to this shrewd old mother:

"Mother Wu, what do you think of us guys! You go out to inquire, the brothers of our Zhou family, all of them are their own people, and they have never done dirty things that harm their own family! We will not ask for any silver that we should not take, not a copper plate! ”

"Good, good...... It's good to know the rules! Then you will set off, the team behind you will sound louder, and the trumpets will be shouted lively! And Ah Tietou, you can take all the money you earn home, and your wife and children are waiting for you to feed you, so don't gamble anymore......"

"Don't worry, Mama Wu, we won't gamble...... Brothers, rise up and be active, shall we? Let's put the bars on our shoulders and carry the sedan chair to the street! ”

The shout of the barman came from the quiet and deep back alley; A burst of gongs and drums of dragons and phoenixes also suddenly sounded; The people who were waiting nearby to join in the excitement took to the streets, waiting to participate in this great excitement......

At the same time, Shen Ju, the head of the dusty family, and dozens of Nankang officials who were congratulating him, also stepped into the ground of Gusu; And the bride Qingmei, who temporarily lives in her "mother's house", has also painted her beautiful makeup, and is in the boudoir of the eldest lady of the Gao family, continuing to be confused.

For her, what happened today was too sudden; To be able to marry Shen You justifiably, even though he is full of joy, he still needs a buffer time to think carefully about the causes and consequences......

Shen Gui had no intention of boasting about the street with the palanquin drivers, so he turned a corner and went straight to the high mansion in the east of the city. The Gao family deserves the name of a nouveau riche, even though the social status is low, but the mansion is first-class! Today, Gao Wenjin and his beloved daughter went to the Shen Mansion to "recognize their relatives", and after that, he never returned home, but went to Dengyun Tower, where businessmen and magnates gathered, and participated in the social circle that he was not qualified to join as a marriage family.

And the men and women of Gaofu, including Gao Yukou's mother, none of them were idle at this time. They borrowed the top-quality food BMW in the Gusu market, a total of eighteen carriages; And Mrs. Gao is also preparing a gift list and carefully considering an unusually generous dowry.

The entire Gao Mansion was busy and nervous, but only the courtyard of the eldest lady of the Gao family seemed extremely deserted.

Qingmei is indeed the bride, but she is only the protagonist of Shen You.

Gao Yukou, the eldest lady who had just recognized her sister, was looking at the jeweled gorgeous phoenix crown on the dressing table with curiosity. If this kind of over-the-top gold and expensive thing falls on the ground of the Northern Yan Dynasty, it will definitely bring disaster to the family; According to the law of Nankang, all those who have the title of the golden list of students, or the day of the wedding of the common people, can wear any level of ceremonial crowns on the day of the wedding event, and do not have to be punished for the sin of transgression.

"Sister Qingmei, this phoenix crown is so beautiful! Especially the pearl in the middle is really scary! Sister, is this a token of love given to you by your brother-in-law? ”

Qingmei also likes this clear and transparent lady of the Gao family, stretches out her hand to touch the other party's hair that is as smooth as a waterfall, and said softly:

"The pearl jewelry of the Gao family firm is the best of the famous Huayu; Since the younger sister of Yukou, who has a family background, has never seen this thing, it must be a rare treasure! My sister came from a humble background, and it was the first time I had seen such a baby. ”

The second daughter in the house spoke, but Shen Gui in the room looked stunned. He looked inside the house from the half of the roof tiles that had been lifted, and saw that in the middle of the phoenix crown on the dressing table, there was indeed a rare giant pearl embedded in it! And judging from the light that escapes from this pearl, this is not a mussel bead commonly used for jewelry and jade; It's the night pearl of the ore category!

Mussel beads and night pearls, although similar in shape and often confused by the world, are two completely different treasures. Of course, the market prices of these two things are also very different. The ancestors of the Gao family started by making and selling fat powder, and the business has developed to this day, and has set foot in almost all categories of boudoirs; The jewelry industry is one of the key industries. Gaojia Commercial Bank has cultivated a group of skilled mussel farmers in Fujian and Guangdong, and there is no shortage of high-quality beads. So according to this line of thought, if Gao Wenjin took out the best clam beads to cling to the Shen family, it would not be worth mentioning at all.

But although the night pearl also has the word "pearl", it is a treasure born in the ore, and it can also be simply regarded as jade. Such a natural treasure, just using words such as priceless and marketable, and the country and the city, can no longer describe the preciousness of this thing.

Shen Gui had seen this treasure before, and it was embedded in the phoenix crown of the Empress Dowager Li Lian of Youbei at that time. It is said that after a riot in Fengjing, this object was privately intercepted by Li Deng and buried in Li Lian's nameless grave. A few days ago, this thing was stolen by Li Zilin's beast and given to the Khan Dynasty of the Shenshi tribe to invite merit; Why did it go around and around, and this thing would appear on the phoenix crown of the green plum again?

If it's just the same night pearl, then Shen Gui can only sigh at the magic of nature; But if this pearl of the night is a token that Li Deng personally handed over to Li Zilin to surrender, then why did it fall into the hands of the Gao family or the Shen family?

The most likely explanation is that Chaolu did not leave the treasure, but sent it to Nankang to be used to exchange food and materials. If you look at it according to this line of thought, then it means that there has been a change within the Shenshi Army: either Di Ting tears up the covenant and will no longer supply the logistics of the Shenshi Army in unlimited quantities; Either Chaolu took this as a reward and asked Di Ting to assassinate the Taining general Ding Shuo and even Yan Qinghong himself.

However, no matter what the origin of this bead is, the current Shen Gui has no time to take care of it.

Qingmei chatted with Gao Yukou for a while, only to see a mother-in-law coming from outside the courtyard; After knocking lightly on the door, he said to the eldest lady of the Gao family who came to open the door:

"Miss, the team that will be married for a while is full of people, and it is easy to make trouble; Mrs. asked you to follow Xishun's dowry team and go to Shen's house to wait first. Now that the sedan chair of the Shen family has finished boasting about the street, it is estimated that there will be another half-pillar of incense, and it will be carried to the door of our house, and it will not be long. ”

Gao Yukou nodded obediently, and after saying goodbye to Qingmei, she left her yard; And the mother-in-law who came to report the news did not enter the house; It's just telling Qingmei to get ready.

Without Gao Yukou's distraction, Qingmei's face suddenly appeared with happiness mixed with panic; This look fell on Shen Gui's eyes, which also disturbed his mood even more chaotically. As early as the time he jumped onto the roof, he had already clasped the thunder sword in his hand; After seeing the night pearl on the phoenix crown, he wanted to capture his third uncle and aunt several times! But in the end, Shen Gui still gave up this idea......

"Is this leaving?"

Just when Shen Gui took back the Thunder Sword and planned to leave the Gao family's mansion; A familiar voice suddenly sounded behind him. Shen Gui didn't need to look back to hear the exact identity of this person.

This person who was ignored by himself was the third son of the Shen family, today's groom official, Shen You.

After he asked, Shen Gui pondered silently for a while, and then replied in a hoarse voice:

"This is something I have to do with Di Ting, and it has nothing to do with Qingmei."

"Could it be Bai Heng's blood feud, you don't plan to avenge it?"

"Heh, with your "three-legged cat" kung fu, can you make three moves under Bai Heng? Don't worry, this blood feud, I will definitely go to Song Xingzhou to settle it out. ”

Shen You, who was wearing a groom's robe, also had a little fat powder on his face, but he still couldn't hide the paleness brought by the blood loss. Now after hearing Shen Gui's reply, he also unconsciously showed a look of surprise.

In his impression, Shen Gui is a rebellious teenager who is in adolescence and can't hold back his skills. He couldn't understand the lofty concept of Di Ting, and because of the instigation and indoctrination of Li Xuanyu and Lin Siwei, he developed a so-called "Jianghu person" with short-sightedness and outdated concepts.

In the words of the elders of the family, it is "bad learning".

Late yesterday night, since Shen You found the unconscious Qingmei in the swampy ruined temple, and found that she was unharmed; immediately thought that he had fallen into the plan to divert the tiger from the mountain. It wasn't until he personally confirmed that Bai Heng had left the underground palace that he already had the consciousness of death in his heart.

At present, the sharpness of the scales and claws has begun to appear, but anyone who has some brains and a keen sense of smell is absolutely impossible to stand on the opposite side of the truth. Looking at the world, people who have a solid enough position and the ability to use and kill Suo Yongkuan will not be the second choice except for Shen Gui.

Bai Heng was defeated by Song Xingzhou's sword, and was cut off by him, his arms and legs were knocked out, and his mouth full of teeth was knocked out, and he was locked in the Shen family's dungeon and imprisoned. is the so-called winner, prince, loser, thief, although the result is tragic, but after all, it is also caused by Bai Heng's inferior skills, and he can't complain about others. And Song Xingzhou, as the winning party, wanted to keep his life because he wanted to wait until the "new world" envisioned by Di Ting came and blessed the people of Li, and then dragged this stubborn old thing out of the dark dungeon, so that he could see with his own eyes who was right and who was wrong.

Shen Gui was right, with Shen You's skills, he couldn't make three moves in front of Bai Heng at all; So his identity is just a cell boss, and he is not qualified to be responsible at all.

But the relationship between Shen Gui and Bai Heng may not be clear to others, but Shen You is not a stranger at all! Because of Li Xuanyu's relationship, since Shen Gui's birth, there have been many people in the rivers and lakes who have always surrounded Shen Gui. Among them, the person who has been the longest is in addition to Jiang Hanke, the head of the truth who turned into the chef Song Xingzhou; It is the Venerable of the Heavenly Spirit Vein who has turned into the hexagram master Liu Banxian - Bai Wenyan.

Now that Song Xingzhou has become his personally chosen mortal enemy, Bai Heng is naturally considered by him to be the most reliable helper. Considering that Shen Gui is a cold-faced and hot-hearted person with a strong emotional temperament; It is also very likely that innocent people will be harmed in an emergency!

So in other words, Qingmei, who is going to marry her late tonight, is in jeopardy!
