Records of the Cattle and Horses of Chang'an

Chapter 347 Carriage

Jian Ming's protruding ears weren't for nothing; they were incredibly sensitive. He trotted to the eaves, his eyes wide open with a smile, and whispered to the higher-ups, "General Zhonglang, you don't know, but my wife said that whether a man is married or not makes a world of difference. My Jiulang is about to get married now, so naturally he's different from before."

After his Jiulang gets married and Miss Jiang comes into the family, it will definitely be Jianming's turn to get married!

I hope Miss Jiang will choose a good wife for him because of his loyalty!

Cui Bianxu's ears turned red again. He secretly puffed out his chest and pretended to scold, "Nonsense! I've always been a calm and composed person."

Wang Mingqian felt that this person was becoming increasingly difficult to talk to, as he talked about his upcoming marriage every three sentences.

Why keep bringing this up? Who can't find a wife? People should marry when they reach a certain age. If you live long enough, you'll eventually die. Isn't that just human nature?

The reason why Cui Bianxu was able to sit down and concentrate today was because his wedding date was approaching. He wanted to completely eliminate Wu Sanniang, a security risk that could harm Jiang Shangxian at any time and anywhere, before the wedding.

Jian Ming glanced at the sky, took out two bags of fruit from the bamboo basket hanging on the tree and threw them onto the roof: "Jiulang, Zhonglang Jiang, you should eat something to fill your stomach first."

Looking at the situation, I don’t know how long it will take.

After all, places like gambling houses always have more people at night than during the day.

Wang Mingqian opened the oil-paper package, picked up a piece of fruit and stuffed it into his mouth. "You said we should stay here and enjoy the fresh air while Zhao Xingcheng plays inside... Why do I feel so uncomfortable?"

"Who told you to show up in public all day long?" Cui Bianxu also started eating the fruit. This fruit was made by Li Meng, and the taste was 80% similar to the one made by Jiang Shangxian, but he always felt that something was missing.

"What does it mean to show yourself in public?"

Wang Mingqian was choked by these words. He strained his neck, picked up the bamboo tube, and took a sip of water to catch his breath before he recovered. "My Jinwu Guards are responsible for patrolling Chang'an City day and night. Everything we do is in accordance with the Emperor's orders. How can you say such words as if we are a public spectacle all day long?"

"Oh, patrol?"

Xiao Cui, who had been jealous for a long time, said bluntly, "You're patrolling day and night, and you can't even investigate a gambling house. What's the problem? You're patrolling Chang'an day and night, and there are still so many cases? Why don't you just stay home and sleep?"

"you!"

Wang Mingqian was so angry that he almost fell off the roof. Just as he was about to retort, he saw Cui Bianxu's face change. The next moment, he felt that the back of his neck was pulled up by fate, and he fell to the ground in an instant.

There was still some tacit understanding between the two. Even though this posture was extremely indecent, he honestly did not struggle. Instead, he asked in a low voice: "What happened?"

There must be something going on. It was just a blink of an eye, and there was clearly no one outside.

Cui Bianxu put his hand in front of his mouth to signal him to shut up, then dropped the person in his hand and quietly walked to the front door, turning sideways to listen to the movement outside.

Jian Ming also hid in the corner of the wall immediately, with his ears erect and not moving.

Wang Mingqian, who was thrown to the ground, lay down on the ground with his ears close to the ground. Finally, he heard the sound of rolling wheels and horse hooves. Is someone coming?

The people outside were obviously extremely alert. Apart from the sound of horse hooves and wheels, there was no other sound. However, one could still hear them stop at the back door of the God of Wealth Casino, and the people in the carriage did not get out.

Someone dismounted and knocked on the door, three knocks fast and one slow.

The person inside didn't open the door immediately. Instead, he asked through the door, "What's the matter?"

The people outside did not hesitate at all: "It's the end of the year, I want to buy some New Year's goods."

'Mute'

The door opened and the sound of wheels and horse hooves could be heard again.

Cui Bianxu looked through the crack in the door and saw only an inconspicuous carriage with a small and cramped compartment made of ordinary materials.

The people inside waited for the carriage to enter before carefully sticking their heads out to look around. After making sure there was no one there, they closed the door again.

"Jiulang, judging from the sound of the wheels, there should be more than one person in the carriage. Should we go in and take a look?" Jianming came over and asked in a low voice.

Wang Mingqian glanced at him. This man's sword skills were comparable to his own. "Not to mention how many people are at the back door, it's still dark today. If you go in with your skills, you're likely to alert the enemy."

If the first undercover operation fails, the God of Wealth Casino will definitely send more people, and it will be even more difficult to conduct another undercover operation at that time.

Cui Bianxu was also thinking: "If I want to know who this person is, I just need to wait for him to come out and follow him. But if I want to know what he is going to do, I have to go this trip..."

"Jianming, go in from the front and find Wang Leisheng and Zhao Shan to see what's going on over there. Wang Hui, you stay here. If we haven't returned by the time the carriage comes out, you follow it and find out who the people inside are." Time waits for no one, and Cui Bianxu quickly made a decision.

Wang Mingqian immediately shook his head after hearing this: "Even though you are a skilled martial artist, we have no idea how many guards there are inside. If we rush in and run into danger..."

"Why are you becoming more and more nagging?"

Cui Bianxu interrupted him directly: "No venture, no gain. This man is so cautious, he certainly doesn't come here every day."

He couldn't possibly stay here every day, and neither could Wang Mingqian. The opportunity was fleeting...

"Forget it, if anything happens..." He didn't say anything else, but if there was any danger, he would definitely give priority to the safety of his friend Cui.

Jian Ming left through the main gate, while Cui Bianxu took a detour through the back door. His temperament was very different from that of ordinary people. If the person next door was cunning and peeked out through the crack of the door, he would be able to see the problem at a glance.

When Wang Leisheng and Zhao Shan were found by Jian Ming, they were excitedly cheering at the racecourse. The two of them were extremely lucky today.

There were three horse races in one day. Not only did he win the first one, but he also won more than he lost in the cockfighting afterwards. It looked like he would win this horse race as well.

The two of them had already agreed to split the money 50-50 when they got out, and they had even figured out how to spend the free money.

When Wang Leisheng saw Jian Ming, he generously grabbed a handful of copper coins and stuffed them into his arms: "Why are you here? Did my wife ask you to come look for me? Women are always so troublesome, always meddling in other people's affairs!"

Seeing this, Jian Ming immediately put on a flattering smile and put away the copper coins. "Don't be angry, my dear. I am just worried that you haven't returned yet, so I asked me to come out and ask if you are going back for dinner."
