Chapter 64: Don't Make Other Choices
This is......
Ling Feng was shocked, took the tiger bronze token, and looked at it carefully. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ļ½ļ½ļ½Uļ½Eć ļ½ļ½ļ½ļ½
"This is the White Tiger Order in the Four Elephants Order, I don't know where Miss Liu got it from?"
The Four Elephants, the Four Elephants, the Green Dragon, the White Tiger, the Vermilion Bird, the Xuanwu, and these mysteries?
There was no need for Liu Shuangli to ask out loud, Ling Feng only looked at her eyes, knew the question in her heart, and nodded in affirmation.
Liu Shuang's confusion deepened: "This token was entrusted to me by one of the killed and captured soldiers when I walked out of Danyue Valley. Before he died, he asked me to transfer this token to Lord Ye Zhiqiuye, who was patrolling the imperial history of Henan, and said that he wanted Lord Ye to pay attention to what Bai Gongzi had to do with Yan Luodian. ā
"Henan patrol according to the imperial history Ye Zhiqiu, that's right, these four elephant orders are originally from Jianning Houye Mansion. The white tiger is the west, when Ye Zhiqiu heard about the incident in Xi'an, he handed over the token to Liu Zhutou to investigate, but he didn't want to cause death. ā
"Jianning Houye Mansion, this token is actually from the Shijia Houfu?" Liu Shuang couldn't help but be surprised.
After living in the suburbs of the capital for more than a year, she never had the heart to go to the big families of the Zhou Dynasty. But this Jianning Houye Mansion, she has still heard people mention it, and probably knows that it is a poetry and book family with a history of more than 100 years. Such a family has always maintained its own nobility, so why doesn't it seem like they would make this kind of token, which is popular among the nobles in the army or between the sects of the rivers and lakes?
Aren't all families and noble families using documents to convey words and read words to recognize people? If you use tokens to put up any score, you are not afraid of lowering your value and being ridiculed by scholars.
Liu Shuangli was still surprised, but Ling Feng couldn't help laughing: "Miss Liu only knows one thing about the Marquis of Jianning's mansion, but she doesn't know the other." ā
When Liu Shuangli heard this, he couldn't help but be even more curious, raising his eyes to stare directly at Ling Feng, waiting for his next words.
Ling Feng lightly pinched the White Tiger Order, squinted his eyes, and suddenly asked, "Miss Liu, do you still remember Ye Jinxin, the Fifth Hall Master of the Zhengbei Alliance?"
How could she not remember that she had a meeting with this master of the five halls a few years ago, and she came to Xi'an to pursue Ye Jinxin's daughter Ye Lian'er.
Ling Feng suddenly asked her, wait, Ye Jinxin's surname is Ye, and Jianninghou is surnamed Ye? Could it be that he is ......
Without serving Liu Shuangli to ask in a loud voice, Ling Feng nodded in affirmation: "That's right, Ye Jinxin is a member of the Ye clan of the Jianning Hou Mansion, but he is from the side branch of the Ye family, and he is separated by many layers from the Jianning Hou Mansion of the same lineage, although the two are of the same clan, they have no contact. Moreover, the Xuanhua army was defeated that year, and the elders of the Ye clan publicly expelled Ye Jinxin from the clan. Therefore, although Ye Jinxin is in the Zhengbei League, he has no impact on the Jianning Marquis Mansion. ā
"This ......"
As soon as the matter came out, it was too ruthless.
Liu Shuangli shook his head, it's not good to think about this matter, how can the life of one person compare to the benefits of the whole clan.
The Ye family is a Ye Jinxin, but as mentioned above, he is from a side branch, and in the end he was expelled from the clan, which has nothing to do with the Jianning Hou Mansion at all.
So what did Ling Feng want to say?
Liu Shuangli's inquiring gaze looked at Ling Feng.
Ling Feng smiled softly, poured himself another glass of water, raised his head and drank it all, and didn't say anything more about Ye Jinxin, but continued: "Although the Marquis Mansion of Jianning is a famous family of poetry and books, a hundred years ago, it was a family that started with military merits, so there are not a few people in the clan who are good at martial arts. Ye Jinxin of the side branch is one, and Ye Zhiqiu of the branch is also one. And Ye Zhiqiu's grandfather, that is, the Marquis of Jianning of the previous generation, had a lot of friendships with various families of martial arts, and these four elephant orders came from the hands of the Marquis of Jianning of the previous generation. At that time, he was only the son of the Hou Mansion, and he made the Four Elephants Order, and most of the fun elements were played, but he didn't want to be inherited by his grandson many years later. ā
"Speaking of this, Lord Ye Zhiqiuye, just like his grandfather since he was a child, walked in the rivers and lakes, and also participated in solving many martial arts cases during this period, enjoying a good reputation among martial arts people, and the Four Elephant Orders were also widely known in the martial arts at that time. But since Ye Zhiqiu returned to the Hou Mansion nine years ago, and then gained fame and became an official in the court, these four elephant orders disappeared. The White Tiger Order that Miss Liu obtained this time is actually the first appearance of the Four Elephants Order after it disappeared for nearly ten years. And this time it is not the same as before, at that time, the Four Elephants Order was only limited to the Wulin rivers and lakes, but now it appears in the official road. ā
Liu Shuangli raised his eyebrows: "Ye Zhiqiu has already entered the court as an official, and it is not surprising that the Four Elephant Orders appear in the official office." ā
"Isn't it strange," Ling Feng smiled, "It's just this Yan Luo shop, should it be an official office or a martial arts?"
"Brother Ling thinks it's ......"
Ling Feng spread his hands and smiled: "What the third prince said is extremely true, the water in this Yama shop is very deep!"
Liu Shuangli was taken aback, her eyebrows furrowed, she had heard about the Yan Luodian before, and she didn't want to ask more at this time, so she nodded and said: "That's the case, this White Tiger Order is from the Jianning Marquis Mansion, so it's easy to do." Please ask Brother Ling to bring it to Han Gongzi, and then ask Han Gongzi to find an opportunity to return it to Master Ye. Liu Zhutou's last words on his deathbed could only bother Han Gongzi to convey it to Master Ye. ā
This is a very natural thing, Liu Shuang left the Baoyun Silver Account to find someone, just to spread the word.
But Ling Feng didn't just nod his head in agreement as Liu Shuangli thought, but stared at Liu Shuangli with a deep smile, shook his head, and instead handed the White Tiger Order back to Liu Shuangli.
"This ...... Brother Ling?" Liu Shuangli was stunned for a moment, and did not take the White Tiger Order.
The corners of Ling Feng's lips twitched: "It's not good to be annoying, this White Tiger Order is what Miss Liu obtained, and if it is returned to Lord Ye, it should be handled by Miss Liu herself." ā
"But...... I'm not ......" Ling Feng's blunt refusal, and for a while Liu Shuangli didn't know how to say it.
There was nothing wrong with Ling Feng's words.
Knowing that the token is from Ye Zhiqiu of the Jianning Hou Mansion, it is simple to return it, and then bother the Han Mansion to come forward, there is really no need.
And Han Fu's actions in the past few years have always been hidden behind the scenes, and it is a little inappropriate to face the Jinggui family at this time.
One more point, the most important point, her relationship with the Han Mansion is still a little unclear.
Thinking that since that year, she and Qin Siyang inadvertently met Han Qihai and were rescued by him. In the past few years, she has never done a thing for the Han Mansion, but she has been receiving many favors from the Han Mansion. Although Han Fu acted like this, there was a possibility of using her to contain Qin Siyang, but she was unwilling to use this utilitarian mind to suspect Han Fu.
Because since Qin Siyang returned to the court that year, he lost his freedom and could no longer take care of her Liu Shuangli. In the past three years, the Han government has never had any restrictions on her movements, and not only has it not been restricted, but it has also affected the Han government because of her free movement without thinking about the consequences.
Han Fu has always given her freedom and has never forcibly used her.
To be fair, in the past few years, in fact, she Liu Shuangli has always owed Han Fu, but Han Fu has never been able to live with her. In such a situation, she has something to trust, if Han Fu is unwilling, what position does she have to ask others.
Thinking of this, Liu Shuangxuan sighed, didn't say anything more, and reached out to take the White Tiger Token.
Ling Feng just smiled lightly and drank another glass of water, and watched Liu Shuangli put the White Tiger Order back away, before asking, "Miss Liu, don't have anything else to say?"
"Anything else?" Liu Shuangli raised her eyebrows, she didn't hear the deep meaning of Ling Feng's words, but she followed her thoughts, and immediately thought of something: "Yes, Brother Ling, do you know, where Lord Ye Zhiqiu appeared, and how can I see others conveniently?"
At this moment, Ling Feng really couldn't help it, and the corners of his lips moved and moved unnaturally, causing Liu Shuangli to open his eyes wide, look at him curiously, and ask, "Brother Ling, is there something wrong?"
"Yes, it's wrong. Ling Feng felt that he was about to take it anymore.
"Why, isn't that Lord Ye ......?"
"No, there's nothing wrong with Lord Ye. Ling Feng waved his hand again and again, and with his internal strength, he pressed the smile that rose in his heart, "It's not right, Miss Liu." ā
"Me?"
"Miss Liu thinks I'm rejecting you, why do you think you?"
"Why?" Liu Shuangli really didn't understand, and his big bright eyes turned and turned.
Ling Feng really wanted to laugh out loud, his body trembled, and he finally held back the laughter, and explained: "Miss Liu, don't be surprised, I don't have any other intentions. Before I came here, the second and third sons had already informed me in advance. Childe said that Miss Liu is different from others, since she has decided to go to Beijing, the next road should be to have more contact with people in the upper circles. To say that, this Henan Patrol according to the Imperial History Ye Zhi Qiuye is not only from a big family, but also very upright as an official, and Miss Liu takes this opportunity to associate with him, which is just right. ā
So it turned out that Han Fu's refusal was not for herself, but for her to go up more conveniently. Liu Shuangli figured this out, his expression faded for a while, and he frowned silently.
But is that all, the Miss Shifu Gongzi she is following now, although her net worth is not as good as that of the Jianning Marquis Mansion, it is not low. From this, officially enter the circle of the upper aristocracy, can't it?
Liu Shuangxuan smiled bitterly, only feeling that her life seemed to have been arranged by God, and once there was a change, all she was prepared for her was double.
However, even so, whether it was arranged or not, the road was taken step by step by herself. Now that she has come to this point, she has long since thought about retreating, Ling Feng or Han Fu's proposal, she can no longer make other choices except for accepting it.
Pressing the helplessness in his heart, Liu Shuangli shook his head, and was about to continue to inquire about Ye Zhiqiu and the Zheng family, but when he saw Ling Feng's middle finger and index finger in front of his mouth, he silently shushed and signaled Liu Shuangli not to make a sound.
Liu Shuangli frowned slightly between his eyebrows, listened carefully, and in a moment, he heard a light footstep slowly approaching under the courtyard porch outside the house.
The sound of footsteps was extremely low, and if it weren't for careful listening, with Liu Shuangli's hearing, it would be really difficult to find that someone was approaching her room in a short period of time. But listening to the footsteps walking lightly and coherently, not deliberately concealing the quiet approach, it is obvious that the person who came has long been accustomed to such silent broken steps.
I only heard the sound of footsteps and walked to the door of Liu Shuangli's room, and then stopped, and at the same time, a soft knock on the door sounded, and a soft female voice called softly outside: "Yang Qi, are you in the house?"
It sounds like the maid is peach.
Ling Feng raised his eyebrows slightly, quickly put the cup he had just drunk back into the porcelain plate on the table, and then dodged back and quietly pushed open the window, jumping and disappearing out of the window.
