There was a saying that money could not be leaked.
What Su Ce brought out today was not small coins or silver scraps, but whole silver ingots.
After he went to the pawn shop to exchange for the Tong Bao, he went to the carpenter shop to pay the deposit.
At this moment, the money in his hands was targeted.
The other party was three idle brawny men. When they saw Su Ce's gentle and weak appearance and his coughing, they knew that he was easy to bully.
The sun was setting, and the evening glow shone on the streets and alleys of Shuntian Prefecture. There were very few pedestrians on the road.
When Su Ce was about to arrive at Huai Hua alley, he felt that someone was following him in the alley.
He didn't pay much attention to it and slowly walked back to the small courtyard made of ivy.
Behind them, in Alley 378.
The three idlers who were tailing Su Ce and waiting for an opportunity to rob him were stunned.
In front of him, a woman leaned against the wall. The Hongwu Tong Bao in her hand slid down from her white thumb to her pinky, and then back and forth.
The woman's black waterfall hair was tied up into a bun with a wooden hairpin. She wore a fiery red robe and looked very capable.
She blocked the other party's path and said indifferently,"Robbery?"
The three men's eyes were filled with ferocity as they said coldly,""Little girl, don't block the way. What we do has nothing to do with you.”
"Oh."
The girl in red nodded and said,""I'll protect the little Langjun you're following. No matter what your purpose is, give me some face and leave.”
The three men had mocking expressions as they sized up the woman. Her beautiful face and cold expression immediately attracted the attention of the three men.
"Hehe, Cheng Cheng, the little lady is right. We won't follow him.”
"Little miss, do you want face? If we want the inside, why don't you sleep with us?”
"Hahaha."
The three of them smiled.
"Pig head!"
"What a waste of time."
The lady in red cursed in a low voice. She thought that the other party was some expert, but from the tone of their words, they were just a bunch of useless scoundrels.
"I hate people who talk too much. En, that's it. I'll let the Embroidered Uniform Guards collect your corpses later.”
What was that?
Before the three men could react, the woman had already pulled out the embroidered spring knife leaning against the corner of the wall.
She flew over with a vigorous stride, then lightly tapped her feet and appeared outside the battle once again. She truly moved like a rabbit escaping.
The girl in red carried the Embroidered Spring Saber on her shoulder and put her hands on the scabbard of the Embroidered Spring Saber as she walked lazily toward Scholarflower Alley.
"What?"
"Why did Commander Mou ask me to protect a sickly person?”
The woman muttered a few words, looking very dissatisfied.
Behind him.
The three men who were standing just now were now kneeling on the ground.
The three of them looked at each other and found blood on each other's necks. The blood on their necks increased. They wanted to reach out and cover it, but in the next moment, the three of them fell to the ground neatly.
……
In the small courtyard of the ivy.
The bright moonlight shone on the glazed tiles, and the first crescent moon of early April hung in the sky like a hook. It was beautiful.
When it was time to light the lamp, the owner of the carpenter shop sent the rocking chair to the small courtyard of the Green Vines.
Because of the rocking chair, the entire house had gained another 5 experience points. Now, the house was LV2, and the experience was 35%.
Su Ce placed the rocking chair beside the stone table. He slowly entered the room and walked out with many copper lamps.
The small copper lamps were neatly arranged on the stone table. He then moved the small wooden stool to the side of the stone table.
Next to the stone table was a huge withered tree. After cutting, the withered tree had become a work of art.
Su Ce picked up the small copper lamp on the stone table and placed it on the branch of the withered tree.
"Little sick ghost, you're quite handsome. It's just that you're soft. No wonder you need someone to protect you."
On the roof of the glazed roof, under the crescent moon, a red-robed Jinyiwei Qianhu sat on the roof with one knee crossed. One hand was casually placed on his knee, and in his hand was a wine pot. Occasionally, he would raise his head and take a sip.
Her eyes would occasionally look at the surroundings outside the courtyard, like a hunter who was proficient in hunting, patrolling her territory. If anyone dared to approach, she would attack at any time.
Of course, most of the time, she would look at Su Ce in the courtyard.
He must have had a serious illness and was always coughing.
The layout and layout of the small courtyard had been tailored and designed. It was very stylish.
Thousand Housekeeper Wei had seen Commander Mou's courtyard before. Although it was big, it was still much smaller than this small courtyard.
This was probably arranged by the young Langjun in front of him.
When the dozen or so small copper lamps hanging on the dead wood lit up, Thousand Housekeeper Wei pursed his lips."You really know how to burn money!"
However, her eyes were bright. Looking down from the roof, the trees in the small courtyard were all lit up by lights, illuminating the courtyard as if it was daytime. It was as if the stars in the sky had been plucked by him, so beautiful.
For a moment, Thousand-Housekeeper Wei forgot to drink and was immersed in the beautiful scenery of the courtyard.
She narrowed her eyes and found that Xiao Langjun was already lying on the rocking chair in the courtyard, quietly reading a book.
Eh?
When her gaze drifted to the layout of the small courtyard, she was shocked again.
A trap?
This seemingly ordinary courtyard was actually densely packed with mechanisms. If someone accidentally barged in, these mechanisms could take the other party's life at any time.
How strange. Did he set up these mechanisms himself?
Su Ce didn't notice that there was someone on the roof. Although the courtyard was heavily guarded, there were no traps on the roof, which was the only loophole.
He sat in the rocking chair under the light and read a book with great interest. The spring breeze caressed his face, and it did not feel cold.
Most of the time, Su Ce closed his eyes and pondered.
He was trying to patch up the empire. He had thought of many things, such as the salary of the vassal kings, the military expenses of the nine borders, the collapse of the Kaizhong system, the annexation of land, the establishment of slaves in Liaodong, the southwest chieftain, and so on.
If these problems were not solved, the seemingly peaceful empire would become a parasite that would suck the flesh of the Ming Dynasty in the future.
The accumulation of problems eventually led to the Ming Empire's helplessness in the later stages.
Until the fall of Chongzhen and the demise of the Ming Dynasty.
Chongzhen's subjugation had his own suspicious personality, but it was also because the empire was no longer under the control of the emperor.
This was the best time and the most crucial opportunity to turn the Ming Dynasty around. Controlling Zhu Houzhao was equivalent to indirectly controlling the direction of the Ming Empire.
Zhu Houzhao was the only son of Emperor Hongzhi. If the conditions were changed, many things might not be possible for him.
The heavens had given him the best conditions. Su Ce was determined to use his body to change the direction of the empire and the future of the Han people!
