Chapter 823 Old Friend
Yu Lang?
Yulang is quite capable.
After Lord Cui was attacked, various assassination incidents occurred one after another in Kyoto.
Even the Changping Warehouse was nearly set on fire, but fortunately a patrolling soldier passed by and put out the fire in time.
For a moment, the old ministers of the Great Zhou Dynasty, who were originally somewhat moved, retracted their necks like a frightened turtle.
The students and teachers that Su Xuanming had finally persuaded, however, politely declined his request to take up official positions when their lives were threatened.
Kyoto, which should have been on the right track, had a handful of sand thrown in its gears, affecting its normal operation.
"Damn it! He ran away again!" Su Xuanming pounded the table angrily!
Just now, someone came to deliver a message, saying that a suspicious person was seen in Xifang.
By the time Su Xuanming brought his men over, the people had already disappeared.
Song Zhizhou scratched his messy hair and said in a hoarse voice: "How do you know this is true news? Maybe he deliberately sent someone to tell you to divert attention."
!!!
Su Xuanming became even angrier.
Isn't this just a game of cat and mouse?
The mouse ran very fast, making the cat run around in circles.
"Damn it! If he was in Xiangzhou, I would dig him out even if I had to dig three feet deep!" said Song Zhizhou coldly.
Very good, it has been a long time since anyone dared to tease him like this.
…
In Kyoto, street shops are opening one after another.
Duke Yun waived the entrance fee to the city, and many surviving farmers from nearby areas carried vegetables and game to the city to sell.
"A big fish, still alive and kicking, for only twenty cents!"
"Do you have any smaller crucian carp? My master wants to drink crucian carp and tofu soup." A thin woman with a blue headscarf on her head was picking and choosing at the fish stall.
"This crucian carp is too small, not even half the size of a palm."
The old farmer bent over and smiled, "Fish like this will be delicious when stewed. Sprinkle some oil on it, fry the fish, and then add boiling water. I guarantee the soup will be milky white. Your master drank a bowl and wants another bowl."
The thin woman raised her eyebrows: "Oh, you are quite good at cooking."
"Hey, I used to be a cook in the city, and my specialty was cooking fish. Fish soup, stewed fish, fried fish, fish sashimi, there's nothing I don't know how to make."
Woman: "Why do you still farm when you have such a skill?"
“Hehe, this is about escaping for life!” The old farmer skillfully helped kill the fish, took out the internal organs, and then handed it to the woman.
The woman counted out twenty copper coins and put them in the farmer's hand: "Kyoto is still in chaos, so don't go into the city if you don't have anything to do."
"I don't want to, but I have to survive first. If I don't go to the city to sell fish, my family will go hungry. I can't be worried about something that hasn't happened yet. Besides, Duke Yun is here."
"Are you so confident in Duke Yun?"
"Yes! Duke Yun will definitely be able to deal with those clowns."
The woman snorted coldly and turned away.
She went to the tofu stall and bought a piece of tofu and a bowl of soy milk. On the way back, she bought a bunch of vegetables.
I have to say, Yunzhou is really efficient.
Cartloads of food were continuously transported to Kyoto, which gave people peace of mind and they no longer had to worry about food shortages in Kyoto.
In addition, there are canned foods produced in Yunzhou, whether it is braised pork or stewed lamb, they are tasty and fragrant.
Slurp!
The woman turned around and went to Yunzhou Supermarket to buy two cans of food, then slowly returned home.
"Yulang, I bought some fresh crucian carp and freshly made tofu today. Would you like to try some?"
This is a neat and square yard.
There are wells, big trees, stone tables and stone benches.
Yulang was practicing with the spear with his bare chest. The spear was like a swimming dragon, shining with cold light.
A thin layer of muscle stuck to his body, wet with sweat.
After Yulang finished practicing the last posture, he put away his spear, casually picked up the clothes on the stone bench and put them on.
"I don't like crucian carp because it has too many bones. Once you've cooked it, send it to the old man."
The woman went into the kitchen and said, "Okay. I also bought some canned Yunzhou food. I'll cook some rice with it later. You can eat more."
"Yunzhou canned food? Lamb or pork?" Yulang touched his stomach and felt hungry.
“Both.”
"That's great." Yulang smiled, and his ordinary face actually showed some handsomeness.
"Hey! Why isn't the meal ready yet? This is elder abuse!" Cui Sanlun banged on the window.
"Tsk. You have such a bad temper, how could Gu Nanxi be willing to acknowledge you as his godfather?" Yulang pushed open the door and opened the window.
He leaned against the window and said nonchalantly, "Don't waste your energy, old man. There are four or five courtyards around here, and none of them are occupied. Even if you scream your throat out, no one will come to save you."
Cui Sanlun coughed twice and said unconvincedly: "How can I know if there is anyone to save me if I don't try?"
"Try and you will die."
"Hmph! My leg is broken. Give me some bone soup to replenish it."
"You just said this morning that you wanted to eat crucian carp and tofu soup. Don't push me further."
Cui Sanlun glanced at him and did not continue to challenge the other party's patience. He softened his voice and said, "Look, you are so young, why do you want to pick a fight with an old man like me? You tied me up and brought me here, and you have to feed and drink me. It's not worth it."
"I am happy to do so."
"What do you want? What do you want? Send me back and I'll give it to you. I see there's no woman or child in the yard. Are you still unmarried? Otherwise, I can be a matchmaker for you."
"Don't try to trick me. This trick doesn't work."
Tsk, he's really stubborn.
Cui Sanlun lay back in bed. He was old and his foot was injured, so he needed to rest more.
Closing his eyes, he wondered who Yu Lang was. Why did he tie him up? Did he know his true identity?
Alas, Xiao Nanxi will definitely be very worried when she finds out that I am missing. I hope that after I am rescued, she won’t scold me.
Yulang glanced at Cui Sanlun and saw that his face was ruddy and he did not have a fever, so he closed the door and went out.
The thin woman warmed the crucian carp soup in the pot, and Cui Sanlun could drink it whenever he wanted.
She brought rice, vegetables and canned food to the table in the main hall: "Yulang, it's time to eat."
Yulang sat down and ate the rice and meat in big mouthfuls.
Yunzhou canned food is so delicious.
"Yulang, they have been checking more and more strictly recently. Many of our detectives have been dismissed! What should we do?"
Yu Lang didn't care and asked, "What do they think?"
"Well, what ideas can we have? We just do whatever the other side tells us to do. People like us are just like a knife. If the knife breaks, we can just buy a new one." The woman lost her appetite.
Yu Lang wiped his mouth and said, "I am the boss of Kyoto now."
"Well, we all admire you. Tell me, Yulang, what do you want us to do? Do you want to do something big?"
The woman's eyes were fierce: "If I can do something big before I die, maybe I can even leave a name in the history books! It will be worth my life in this world!"
