Chapter 141 No Need
"Okay, then I look forward to good news from Lord Yelu. This cup of wine is to wish Lord Yelu a successful start."
The man called the prince said slowly with a smile.
Lord Yelu laughed heartily and promised in his awkward Beijing accent: "Prince, just wait for my good news. After the matter is done, you must keep your word."
"Don't worry."
"It's so refreshing! Doing business with the prince is much more refreshing than doing business with Su Ke."
As they talked, they gradually began to chat about some trivial things, and never mentioned Shen Li or any name Zhou Qing knew.
Despite this, Zhou Qing was still trembling with fear at this sudden conversation.
Someone wanted to kill Shen Li.
What should she do?
She is not the kind of heroine with strong martial arts and a tough status who can become a handsome guy in anger.
She did not suddenly become very wise and outsmart people because of traveling through time.
After racking his brains, Zhou Qing could not think of any better way except to tell Shen Li about this conversation.
There was no all-night chat next door.
After eating for only about half an hour, the man called the prince left.
There was a noise next door, and Zhou Qing immediately went to bed lightly, fearing that the slightest sound would alarm the other party and his life would be gone.
Zhou Qing had just laid down on the bed when the door next door creaked open.
With his dark eyes open, Zhou Qing saw three black shadows passing by the window.
One black shadow was in front, and two black shadows were behind.
The one in front was slightly taller and thinner.
When he walked to Zhou Qing's door, he suddenly stopped and turned to look at Zhou Qing's door.
Looking at the paused black shadow outside and listening to the paused steps, Zhou Qing was so scared that his heartbeat accelerated and he didn't even dare to breathe.
"Who lives in here?"
The prince's voice sounded very softly outside the door.
A shadow behind him immediately replied: "The store owner said that it was a girl of fourteen or fifteen years old, from Qinghe County, who came to Pingzhou with her family to buy beef and mutton. Do you want to kill her?"
Kill her?
Zhou Qing!!!
The prince was silent for a moment, "No need."
After speaking, he raised his foot and left quickly.
In Zhou Qing's opinion, the moment of his silence seemed like a century of torture.
Thank you for your grace!
As soon as the prince left, the door next door slammed shut.
Soon, the conversation between two Beiyan people came. They were so bold that Zhou Qing couldn't understand a word.
Zhou Qing lay weakly on the bed, his clothes soaked with cold sweat.
About a quarter of an hour later, footsteps were heard in the corridor again.
The two girls entered the next door.
Then there was a sound.
Zhou Qing
Time passed, and finally made it to the next morning.
After breakfast, Zhou Qing followed Zhou Huailin to find a suitable source of goods.
As soon as they left the inn, seeing that there was no one around, Zhou Qing immediately pulled Zhou Huailin's sleeve and lowered his voice to ask, "Did Third Uncle hear any noise last night?"
Zhou Huailin looked at Zhou Qing in confusion, "No? We went to bed after you left, and didn't hear anything. What happened, Qing girl?"
Zhou Qing shook his head and grinned, "Nothing, I seemed to hear the sound of mice."
Zhou Huailin laughed and said, "Why is Qing girl afraid of mice too? You used to catch mice more happily than cats!"
Zhou Qing
Catching mice more happily than cats?
What a weird person I was before!
He chuckled and changed the subject.
On Zhou Huailin's side, Li Er looked at Zhou Qing with a slightly depressed look.
Of course he heard the conversation last night.
That prince was the prince of Ning Wangfu, who their adults had been looking for for a long time but couldn't find.
Unexpectedly, they met here.
Even more unexpectedly, the prince of Ning Wangfu met Yelu at night and talked about those topics so unscrupulously.
It just so happened that Miss Zhou was next door to them.
At night, when the attendant of the Prince of Ning asked whether to silence him, his hands were shaking with nervousness.
If Miss Zhou made any mistakes, how could he explain to their masters!
And once the other party took action, if he wanted to protect Miss Zhou, he had to activate the secret stakes of Shadow in Pingzhou.
Once activated, all the schemes set up by Shen Li in Pingzhou would be in vain.
Fortunately!
Thank you!
The Prince of Ning, who had always been cold-blooded and murderous, unexpectedly did not have the intention to kill.
At night, Li Er took advantage of Zhou Huailin's deep sleep to send a message to the Shadow left by Shen Li in Pingzhou.
At this time, Shen Li should have received it.
However, Miss Zhou heard the words between the Prince of Ning and Yelu, so she should know what kind of people their masters are.
Li Er was a little worried about his master's marriage.
There were many beef and mutton shops opened by Beiyan people in Pingzhou, but these people were arrogant and domineering in doing business, and they asked for prices casually.
You asked him the price a moment ago, and he said one price. When you looked at the beef and mutton and wanted to bargain, he turned around and said another price.
After a round of shopping, Zhou Huailin and Zhou Qing finally stopped in front of a store called Youcai Grain Shop.
Li Er's eyelids jumped when he saw the words Youcai Grain Shop.
No way
"This is a grain shop, beef and mutton should not be the main business."
Li Er weakly expressed his opinion.
"I see, the Jixiang Meat Shop over there seems to be better."
Zhou Huailin shook his head decisively, "Although this is a grain shop, it also sells beef and mutton. After walking around, the mutton here has the least smell."
Li Er
Isn't this nonsense!
Of course the smell here is the smallest.
The mutton in Youcai Grain Shop is the military rations privately operated by the Zhenguogong party.
These meats were collected by the court from Yili and distributed to the soldiers of the Zhenshuo Army.
The reason why their masters came to Pingzhou this time was to investigate the operation of military rations by Youcai Grain Shop.
You
What should I say!
Li Er held his forehead with melancholy, rubbing and rubbing.
Zhou Huailin had already brought Zhou Qing into the shop.
As soon as they entered, the young man from Youcai Grain Shop came up to them enthusiastically, "Sir, what would you like?"
Zhou Huailin walked around and finally his eyes fell on the beef and mutton hanging on the wall.
The waiter immediately said cleverly: "Sir, do you want to buy some beef and mutton? Sir, you have good taste. We have mutton from Cailiangpu. We guarantee that you will not have any smell of mutton!"
Li Er
Nonsense!
Zhou Qing went forward and smelled it. Indeed, the smell of mutton was extremely small, even negligible.
However, as far as she knew, mutton with little smell of mutton was generally distributed in Xinjiang, Gansu, and Inner Mongolia.
These three places, no matter where they were, were very far away from Beiyan and Pingzhou.
Logically speaking, the beef and mutton in Pingzhou should have originated from Beiyan.
"Why is the mutton in your store different from that in other stores? This mutton is not smelly. Is it expensive?"
Zhou Qing turned over the mutton and turned to smile at the waiter.
