Chapter 299

It was only when the sky was light that the banquet was over, and everyone took a carriage back to the mansion. And the count of villa warmly invited you, just said that today is the host of Mount Delan Warcraft, and he will come another day. They exchanged greetings and went back on their own way.

Duwei sat in the carriage for a while and closed his eyes. After this talk tonight and the deal, everyone got benefits. Although Dewey seems to have given up some interests, both of them are not fools, and they will certainly express their opinions in the future. Du Wei is not in the imperial capital. Although he has a noble title, people have been separated from the core circle of power for too long, and there are always some bad things. These two guys are in the imperial capital. They have a good relationship with themselves. They can always help themselves with a lot of things.

As for money... Dewey is not a profit seeking businessman in essence. He already has a lot of money. He earns less and doesn't care.

In the early hours of the morning, although the curfew at the gate of the imperial capital had not been lifted, the gate was closed and no access was allowed. But who is Dewey? He has Chen Prince personally sign and issue of go in and out special permission to pass, naturally smooth into the city.

Carriage all the way into the imperial capital, in the early morning, the street is naturally no pedestrians, empty street, dim night. Only occasionally, on the far street, passed the soldiers of the patrol security team, the voice of the boot owl. Besides, because it's winter, there's no sound of a bird.

Du Wei was resting in the carriage when he suddenly felt that the speed of the carriage had dropped sharply. Even though the carriage had been carefully modified by Du Wei, it had excellent shockproof effect. When it stopped suddenly, Du Wei also felt a sudden shock. He opened his eyes, and outside came the voice of Luffy, the coachman, in awe: "Lord. Master, someone is blocking the way ahead. "

Du Wei frowned. In his capacity, he was in the imperial capital. In the middle of the night, who dares to block his way? Is it an assassin?

Then I heard the voice of several accompanying bodyguards outside.

On the long street, in front of the street, stood a tall, thin shadow. The man was dressed in the gray of a typical servant. But he was wearing a square and round hat on his head. He was standing alone in the middle of the street. In the night, he could not see clearly, but he was blocking the way of the carriage.

The two tulip guards in front of the carriage had already welcomed them. The loyal guard, with his hand on the hilt, was drinking and asked, "who dares to block the way! Get out of the way

But the man in the street didn't seem to hear it. Just standing on the road. Strangely, there seemed to be a strange smell on this man. Several tulip guards looked at his shadow from a distance, and a strange chill came out of their heart.

In the night, as if there was such a faint cold eyes shot over. All the guards stepped back involuntarily. No matter how the guards on the horse yelled, the horses seemed to be frightened and did not dare to move forward.

Some of the veteran bodyguards realized that something was wrong and jumped off the horse. Pull out the weapon and push it.

Just then, the gray figure on the street sighed, and a slightly tired voice came: "Duke tulip, please come out and see me."

The head of the bodyguard yelled, "who are you, the Duke? Do you want to see anyone you want?"

With that, he winked at his companion, and three or five people forced him to pass in a semi encircled formation.

By this time, Dewey had pushed open the door of the carriage and came down by himself. The guard under the opponent called "stop". Then he went to the front, glanced at Luffy, shivering in the carriage driver's seat, and then frowned at the man in the distance: "who are you? Why do you want to see me? "

Dewey was also wary. Although that person stands far away, but with Du Wei's ability as a magician, his facial features are more than ten times sharper than ordinary people? Don't say such a little distance, even if it's further away, in the night. Dewey should be able to see each other as well.

But this guy was standing there. No matter how carefully Dewey looked, his shadow seemed to have melted into the night. And the dark night as a whole, how to see, are so a vague gray shadow, even Duwei can not see this person's appearance, it is obvious that the other side used some special magic or means.

When the gray figure saw Dewey come out, his voice seemed a little more warm and not so ghostly: "Duke tulip, it's not me who wants to see you, it's my landlord who wants to see you."

Dewey frowned: "who is your landlord?"

The man seemed to smile. As soon as his eyes brightened, Dewey saw that the air in front of him was suddenly distorted. The dark night that originally shrouded him seemed to be much clearer. It didn't look so vague, and his face was finally clear bit by bit.

The man had a thin face, a sharp chin and a sort of sharp mouth. If you often live with such a look, how much will make people feel a little obscene. But this man, although he has grown up like this, is awed between his eyebrows. It is impossible for people to despise his ugly appearance. On the contrary, it is faintly awed.

The man's eyes were very bright. His eyes fell on Dewey's body, and a faint smile came out of the corner of his mouth. Then he raised his left arm and stretched out his left hand hidden in his sleeve. With a flick of his finger, his fingertips immediately turned into a silver white frozen cold. Far away, he seemed to be magic, and a group of white light was gathered on his fingertips, Countless tiny ice ridges flying

As soon as Du Wei saw his hand, his eyes lit up and a smile appeared on his face: "well, I know who your master is. Well... Since he came to invite me, why did he block the way here in the middle of the night? As the master, you can go to the Duke's house to see me in broad daylight

The man seemed to smile, but in this laugh, there was a trace of ridicule: "the Duke is very busy, said the master. I'm afraid you may not be willing to meet me when you come back this time. Otherwise, the host has done you such a big favor, but it's two days since you came back to the imperial capital. Not only did you not come to see me, but you didn't send a message. It's really disappointing. "

In the face of such a person, such a tone. Duvet's bodyguards were all angry. Who dares to speak to Dewey in such a scornful tone as he is now?

Dewey seemed to be very polite to the man: "well, you're right. It's my faux pas. I'll see your master as you please

After that, despite the opposition of his subordinates, Dewey asked his men to go back to the Duke's Palace by themselves and strictly forbid them to follow. Then he took a few steps on his own. "Where is your landlord?" he said with a smile? Take me now. "

The man hummed and laughed twice, didn't speak much, turned and walked to the other end of the street.

Du Wei stepped up and followed. The guard behind him was about to catch up with him. Du Wei from a distance said, "no one is allowed to follow! Go back! "

At dawn. On the long street of the imperial capital, a servant in gray clothes in front of him was carrying his hands behind him. In the back, Dewey in a gorgeous suit. But behind him, there was a distance of about ten meters between them. Dewey quickened his pace several times, but the guy in front seemed to keep the distance intentionally. Dewey was fast, he was fast, and Dewey was slow. He always kept such a delicate distance of ten meters.

Dewey decided in his heart that this guy had a special ability. When he walked, he had to watch. The body is fast, with a kind of floating feeling, probably a kind of special martial arts. In addition to the cold air that he had just shown in his hand, duvidi's conjecture was confirmed.

Both of them are people with magical skills. They go on like this, but the speed is very fast. Before dawn, I had already walked from the east to the west of the city, and then all the way north

The man seemed to be very familiar with the route of the night patrol of the soldiers of the security department in diduli. Walk in front, left and right. Along the way, they avoided the patrol soldiers of the security department. No one bothered them.

Finally, I came to the Bank of Lancang canal in the north of the imperial city.

This section of the Lancang canal is the largest Wharf in the interior of the imperial city. When duvet's father count Raymond returned from Nanyang, the grand ceremony was also held here.

In the night, the huge xionggang in the imperial capital, in the outline of the night, is like a sleeping giant. Several wharves specially built for berthing Poseidon class ships extend to the canal.

At the two ends of the grand harbor in the imperial capital, along the river bank of the Grand Canal, a lot of prosperous places have emerged. Especially at the upstream, many businesses have set up teahouses and restaurants here. It's really a very elegant enjoyment to go up to the riverside and have a panoramic view of the imperial capital and the Grand Canal. At the same time, you can enjoy the delicious wine and food. So here is a famous place in the imperial capital.

It's just that at dawn, far away, over the huge harbor, it's still quiet. There are only a few boats moored here with a little light. There are also some hard-working workers who get up early in the harbor. It's just quiet.

The restaurants and teahouses on both sides are not open yet, and the streets are quiet.

Du Wei followed the man. He came here all the way, but he went north. He walked along the Riverview Avenue on the Bank of the Grand Canal. At last, at a corner, the man walked to the side of the road, pushed a door open, and went in with a flash.

Dewey's face was calm. He followed him to the door and looked up. It was a small teahouse. On this busy street, it looks rather shabby, but from the layout of the entrance, there is something special. There is a sign on the door of the teahouse, which says:

"Ordinary people are not allowed to enter"

Du Wei saw such a line of words, couldn't help laughing, pushed the door and went in.

In this small building, there was no one downstairs, only a wooden staircase that looked rather shabby. The previous one, I think, has gone up. Dewey didn't hesitate. He also went up the stairs. When I got upstairs, I saw a screen in front of me. Duvet turned the screen and saw what it looked like upstairs.

The second floor is a small hall with windows on all sides. But at the moment, only the window facing the Grand Canal is wide open. The cold wind in the early morning makes the house very cold.

In front of the window, a man with his back to Dewey sat by the window, with a silver pot and two small cups in front of him. Looking from his back, he was quite old, and his back seemed to be stiff. I just shrunk in the chair. It was so cold in the room, but he didn't close the window, let the cold wind blow like this, only he had a thick blanket on his body. The man in grey, who led Duwei, stood quietly behind him, with his hands down, like a statue. Du Wei sighed a long time, then looked at the man's back and said with a smile, "look out from the river. Although the scenery is good this morning, the weather is too cold now. You are very interested. Would you like to invite me to have a drink so early? " With that, he laughed and took two steps. This person doesn't look back. But the old voice said, "Your Highness is busy. If you don't choose this time, I'm afraid you won't be free." Du Wei walked up slowly, but said: "you're welcome! If it's your invitation. No matter at any time, even if I squeeze, I have to squeeze out time. Why let your master go? Um... I was surprised just now. When did this "ice fighting spirit" become so worthless? Anyone who stops me in the middle of the night will use it casually. I'm afraid you are the only one who can teach this kind of master apprentice. " This person faint smile: "he is not my apprentice, just a close person around me." Dewey has reached his ground. So he sat on the chair in front of the man, picked up the silver pot and an empty cup on the table, poured a cup, sipped a sip, and then frowned: "I guess it's wrong. It's better to drink a pot of hot wine in such cold weather when I sit by the river. It's a very elegant thing. But you are a man of great status. But how can you just drink water? Isn't that too insipid? " The man raised his eyebrows and said with a smile, "has the Duke never heard of a word... The more wine you drink, the warmer it is. The colder the water is! My heart has been cold for decades. Drinking water is just right for me to be cold. " Then he raised his thin and old hand, pointed to the open window, and said with a smile: "Duke, please see, although the wind is strong and cold, it's hard for others to bear. For me... The feeling of the cold wind attacking the body is a kind of nostalgia..." Dewey smiles and takes a deep breath in the cold wind, and the cool air smells into his lungs, There is a kind of heart and lung frozen pleasure, and then he laughed: "miss it? Well, do you miss the cold on the snow mountain? Mr. blue ocean. " Blue ocean didn't smile, but his old face seemed to be lost in meditation. After a long time, a trace of helplessness flashed in his bright eyes: "Duwei, you're right. I really miss the snow mountain. Although there is ice and snow, but there, my heart is warm. Although the capital is warm, my heart is cold. " Du Wei SA ran a smile: "in this case, I this warm heart person, accompany you to drink a cup of cold heart water!" He took a sip of the cold water in the glass, then took a long breath and said with a bitter smile, "I never thought it would be so pleasant to drink such a glass of ice water in such cold weather." Blue ocean coughed twice. The servant in grey behind him immediately looked at him with concern. Blue ocean waved his hand to indicate that he was OK. He just wrapped his blanket tightly. He looked a little weak. He looked at Dewey and said with a smile: "Your Highness, you have taken my eighty disciples back to the imperial capital, and you won't come to see me, It's too much to say. " Du Wei's eyes flashed and said with a smile: "Mr. blue ocean, when you gave me those 80 apprentices, the intention was not simple. Of course, I appreciate your help, but... Before I see you, I have to figure out one thing. "“ What's the matter? " Dewey put down his cup, stared at the blue ocean, and then said slowly, "are you my enemy or friend when we say goodbye?" Voice just fell, the room is a solemn murderous!!
