Shoko Gaomen(59)

"Your Majesty, peace of mind. Li Xiangjun entered the main hall and saluted Emperor Yongkang, who was sitting in danger.

Emperor Yongkang waved his hand, and he had to give face to his wife. So the look on his face was quite softened: "Get up." Between husband and wife, there is no need to be so polite. ”

The first thing Li Xiangjun did when he got up was to look at Emperor Yongkang's face. Then he frowned: "It's only been a long time, how did Your Majesty lose so much weight." ”

The two don't see each other often, and it's normal for them not to see each other for ten days and a half. Therefore, the fat and thin points can be seen at a glance. In addition, Emperor Yongkang's face was sallow, his expression was haggard and languishing, and he looked like he was seriously ill. The queen, of course, was taken aback.

In fact, Emperor Yongkang himself knew that the thing Lin Fanghua used was only afraid that it was inappropriate. No one knows this body better than he. In the past, there was no problem at all in riding horses and archery, going up the mountain and down the river. Now I walk around the garden by myself, and my feet are fluttering.

When asked by the queen, the look on his face was almost unbearable, and he only shook his head and said: "There have been many events in the DPRK and China recently, and I feel a little uncomfortable. I can't eat, I can't sleep, and I don't look good. No big deal. Wait for your heart to be idle and raise it. ”

The queen also knew about Chu Yuan, and her face was a little clear: "The Chu family is not good." ”

Emperor Yongkang glanced at the queen in amazement, he was still thinking about choosing the crown princess from the Chu family, and this became really fast!

The queen was a little embarrassed, "Actually, before, the concubine also thought that it should be appropriate for the girl of the Chu family to be the crown princess." But being a wife is really a bit of a point. ”

You simply say that the power you fancy the Chu family is not over. Emperor Yongkang was also a little helpless in his heart towards a queen who was always so sincere, "Okay, don't talk about this." Is there something wrong with the queen coming here today?"

Only then did the queen say: "The concubine passed on the imperial doctor and asked them to show you." ”

See, the Imperial Doctor?

Emperor Yongkang's face became strange, "Call Imperial Doctor Jiang to come." "This Imperial Doctor Jiang has some connections with the old way of the ox nose, and he knows his own physical condition. Their families have their lives in their own hands, so they know what they can and can't say. Over the years, there has never been a mistake.

The queen disagreed: "If Imperial Physician Jiang is useful, why is your dragon body like this......?

The expression on Emperor Yongkang's face became gloomy, "How is the dragon body, can anyone find out?

"Is it wrong for a wife to care about her husband?" the queen felt that these were her responsibilities as the queen, "Your Majesty is happy to be a concubine and concubine all night, and she stays up all night......"

"Shut up! Shut up!" the green tendons on Emperor Yongkang's head jumped, "What do you want to do to spy on my whereabouts?"

The people outside the main hall trembled one by one, and the cold sweat on their heads only flowed, my God! What did you hear today?

Laifu wiped the sweat from his head, and just mustered up the courage to go in and take a look, he heard the queen shout: "If Your Majesty still doesn't listen to the advice, and blindly invites the favor of Li Cairen's fox charmer, the concubine will invite the middle palace notebook ......."

Laifu's footsteps stopped suddenly, and he turned his head and glared unceremoniously at Mama Zhang, who was waiting on the side, isn't it good for the queen to be quiet? What are you tossing endlessly? He turned around, called a little eunuch over, and whispered two commands, until he saw the little eunuch running away and breathed a sigh of relief.

Mama Zhang really hates to kneel down this time, and the reason why she persuaded the queen to come is not this. Even if the emperor rests for two days on the fifteenth day of the new year, even if he has no children, the relationship between husband and wife can always be eased. Don't look at your own master is now the queen, but there is no queen favored by the emperor, in this palace, life is not as comfortable as Li Cairen. If the queen does not have a crown prince under her knees, there is simply no place in this palace. But the master's temper is so good! she can really pit herself to death!

Gan stayed up half the night, and got up a little late today. As soon as breakfast was over, Mama He came in and whispered a few words in Gan's ear.

"She's crazy?" Gan looked at Mama He incredulously, thinking that he was hallucinating.

Mama He also looked startled, and smiled bitterly: "Laifu sent someone to ask you to hurry over." The two of them quarreled. ”

The green tendons on Gan's head jumped up, and he got up and left. The queen can not speak, does she have a long brain, saying in front of others that the emperor favors the concubine, and she stays up all night. This is already scolding the emperor for being a faint king. In addition, the filial piety period has not yet passed. The emperor probably has the heart to really kill the queen. What else do you say, please ask the middle palace note, the power of the middle palace, that has to be given by the emperor, if you really have to accept the phoenix seal in her hand first, then you really want to cry and there is no place to cry. "I can't count on it, she didn't ...... like this before"

Who's to say it isn't?

The people outside the main hall knelt down and saluted when they saw Gan. Gan ignored these people, and was about to go inside along the steps, when he was about to enter the door, when he heard a crisp sound of porcelain falling to the ground, followed by the emperor's roar like a trapped beast: "You are bold! Now even you dare to threaten me." Just because you haven't come out all these years, I can abolish you!"

This can be regarded as a stab in the lung tube.

"Abolish me?" The queen remembered all these years of being alone in the empty house, and her face suddenly turned pale, "Your Majesty said that I have nothing to do, so you have to ......"

"Queen Mother!" Gan quickly interrupted the queen's words, and it would be a loss of words if he continued to speak. I really want to say something bad from the queen's mouth, but I'm afraid that the emperor will really move to kill. So, she hurriedly screamed outside, interrupting the quarrel between the two, and then walked in. Seeing the emperor sitting on the couch, he looked at the queen with a gloomy look, as if he was going to eat her in the next moment. And Gan's face also showed a frightened expression, and he almost said something he shouldn't have said. Now, facing the gloomy eyes of the emperor, she is even more frightened.

Gan stepped forward and stood in the middle of the emperor and the queen, blocking the view of the confrontation between the two.

"What's going on?" she asked softly, "why did you lose your temper so much?"

When the queen looked at Gan, her brows furrowed, "We husband and wife talk, who asked you to come in and interject." Figure out who you are, and if there are any rules!"

Gan Shi turned to look at the queen, and his voice became low: "Think about what you just said? You are the queen, the emperor will not take you lightly? But what about the Li family?

The queen's face turned white, but she still stubbornly glanced to the side, "Except for me, who wants to be this queen who has suffered a dumb loss for half her life?"

What a step in the eye!

Emperor Yongkang casually lifted the small kang table: "Without you, Queen Li, there will be another Queen Li." "Don't think there's no one else but you.

Gan knew that the 'other Empress Li' that the emperor was referring to in general, and that her surname might not necessarily be Li! But the Empress may not have thought so.

Sure enough, the queen pushed Gan away: "Another Queen Li, you still want to abolish the concubines and make room for the fox in Yilan Palace, don't you?"

Gan's forehead, can you grasp the point, what's the point of arguing like a shrew. Li Cairen is charming or not, this is not important at all, the important thing is that you are worried about the emperor's body.

The emperor has been very cold to the queen all these years, but he has never been embarrassed, and he is even willing to pretend to be a humble gentleman in front of her. That's because he himself knows that the queen is sincere to him.

Now if she continues to be entangled like this, I am afraid that the emperor's guilt towards her will slowly wear away.

The emperor pointed at the queen, and his hands began to tremble: "You...... You...... I'm going to abolish ......"

"Shut up!" Gan scolded the two of them: "What are you arguing about, what are you arguing about? Do you remember who you are?"

This sound came out, not only scared the people outside to kneel, but also the Yongkang Emperor and the queen inside were also stunned at the same time.

Gan wiped his face, and then his voice changed: "Now that we are all older, it's not that we were when we were young, noisy and yelling, and we were annoyed for three days and two days." Seriously, we've all known each other since we were young. It's said that it's a childhood sweetheart.,It's not an exaggeration.。 As she spoke, she looked at Emperor Yongkang, "The queen and you, are you considered childhood sweethearts?"

The corners of Emperor Yongkang's mouth twitched, the two did know each other when they were young. She plays with her sister all day long, and she can always see her every now and then. I can't say how deep the affection is, but when I met, I was seven or eight years old.

Seeing that Emperor Yongkang acquiesced, Gan turned his head to look at the queen whose eyes were already red: "You didn't know the identity of the emperor at that time, you just thought that it was my father's student, and follow me to call Your Majesty Senior Brother." You should still keep the rabbit lamp that my brother gave you, right? Mine was a good one before, but when I searched my house, I lost it......

The queen's tears fell all at once, and she squatted on the ground and cried out.

Emperor Yongkang looked at the queen who was squatting on the ground, the corners of his mouth twitched, but he still got up and helped the queen up: "Okay! Just like Quan'er said, childhood sweethearts have been half a lifetime now." There is no love between men and women, but I also treat you as a ...... It's the same as a sister-in-law. All these years in the house, you have not lost anything. I know you're kind, but it's easy for people outside to think too much about changing the doctor. Now it is an eventful time in the DPRK and China, and I am busy and anxious. I was irritable, but I just went to Li Cairen to relax and relax. What does she compare to you? We grew up together. You're worried about my body, I know. This sent someone to invite the Void Dao Chief. When I was in the palace before, I have always been the chief of the Void Dao to regulate my body, and there has never been a problem, so you should rest assured now. ”

The queen sobbed twice and blessed her body: "Is it a concubine today?" ”

Emperor Yongkang took the queen's hand and patted it: "There is something wrong with me." It's not good to be angry, what I'm saying today is all angry words, don't take it to heart. Go back and have a good rest, and in a while I'll have someone make you a hundred and eighty rabbit lanterns, okay? At that time, I didn't have much silver, so I couldn't buy as much as I wanted. Now, as much as you want, I ask someone to do it for you. ”

The queen laughed with a 'poof': "The concubine is waiting for the emperor's lamp." ”

Emperor Yongkang smiled and nodded: "Let's go back first." When you wait for the void to come, when you take the pulse and see a doctor, I will send someone to call you over. ”

The queen answered, turned around and went out.

Emperor Yongkang looked at the back of the queen going out, and the smile on his face disappeared little by little, "Thanks to you today." "The prince is still under the queen's name, and it doesn't matter if he doesn't get along with the queen, I'm afraid that the people below will interpret the meaning that he is expressing his dissatisfaction with the prince through his dissatisfaction with the queen. This was not something he wanted to see.

Gan's today, this is a stunned match between the two of them immediately to their childhood sweethearts.

"You know the Queen's temper. Gan helped him sit down, "You put a little more thought into it......"

Emperor Yongkang waved his hand: "Don't say it, I know everything." ”

Gan Shi still sat next to Emperor Yongkang and said softly: "Although the queen's temper is a little harder, she is indeed good for you." If I say something you don't like to hear, your body, but you've lost too quickly. Lin Fanghua must have used some means. You still have to be on guard. It's time to please. ”

Emperor Yongkang took Gan's hand, "I know, but I really don't covet tenderness for a while, but I don't seem to be able to pass, and I feel panicked." I don't have the energy to do anything. ”

Gan's eyes flashed: "It's like hurting lovesickness." ”

Emperor Yongkang was stunned, "Don't say it, it's really like suffering from lovesickness." "Falling in love with Lin Fanghua's woman?

Gan smiled for a moment, and then changed the topic: "Since the affairs of the previous dynasty are basically over, I will move the excerpt for you." I deal with these, and it's not appropriate either. ”

Emperor Yongkang lay down on the couch: "It's okay to move the fold, I'll ask someone to clean up a compartment for you in the imperial study." When no one is around, you are in it...... Take a look at the excerpt and give me a hand. "The point is that my eyes are a little blurry, and I can't see anything clearly. Except for Gan, he has no one to entrust with such a thing.

Gan lowered his head, his eyes flashed, and then he said, "The imperial history below is to speak." ”

"Chu Yuan's case is unsolved, there are many people involved here, who is disobedient, check his roots......" Emperor Yongkang sneered, "So, see who else is not obedient." ”

But this is going to block the way of speech!

Gan lowered his eyelids and said for a long time: "That's not necessary." Just through this matter, it would be good to look at the hearts of the people below and the hearts of the ministers. ”

If you involve the minister because of yourself, you will inevitably complain. She won't do such an unpopular thing!

Emperor Yongkang nodded, and waved his hand at Gan tiredly, and Gan retreated.

When I walked outside the main hall, I heard the voice of Emperor Yongkang calling for blessings.

Immediately after, the whole palace shook. The emperor's rewards continued to go to Chaofeng Palace.

In the East Palace, Jin Yunshun silently listened to the report and wiped a cold sweat. It's changing so fast. A quarter of an hour ago, I heard that the emperor and queen quarreled, and the emperor shouted that he was going to abolish the queen. But in the next quarter of an hour, the queen came out of the imperial study with red eyes, but with a smile, and received the emperor's reward.

Ji Xiang said in a low voice: "...... His Royal Highness is at ease, the emperor and the queen are childhood sweethearts, and they are a young couple. Even if it looks light, the love inside is different from others. According to the slave, this man is still tired of women, but between these relatives, there are relatively few enemies. The emperor and the queen are a little bit like that. Otherwise, who would be safe and sound after almost lifting the imperial study. This indulgence is much heavier than the favor of Li Cairen. ”

Jin Yunshun nodded: "Clean up, and go to the queen mother to say goodbye in a while." "There is some truth in auspicious words. But he ignored one person, and that was Concubine Chen. The emperor and queen quarreled with the sky, but when she entered as a concubine, she could make the two of them turn off the fire immediately. The concubine regulates the relationship between husband and wife? This is really mysterious. But there really is. It seems that Concubine Chen has no ill will towards the queen, so it is much more cost-effective to befriend her than to be evil. "It seems that the queen has to be persuaded ......"

The Gan family only went to ask for a meeting after the rewards entered the Chaofeng Palace.

Where did Mama Zhang dare to stop this time, this time thanks to Gan's. The position of the queen, after this quarrel, appeared to be more solid. In the future, whoever faces Chaofeng Palace must be careful, but his master is a person who is still coaxed by the emperor after he collides with the emperor.

When the queen saw Gan, the smile on her face slowly put away, and she turned her face and sent away the people who were waiting inside, "This time it's thanks to you." ”

Gan glanced at the queen: "Finally, I have grown a little bit and know the truth of getting off the donkey down the slope." ”

There was a mocking smile on the corner of the queen's mouth: "Yes, I am now a fool, and being a fool who is easy to be coaxed is the smartest thing to do." As she spoke, she raised her eyes to look at Gan, "I have the crown prince under my knees, and I need your help." ”

Gan looked at the queen in amazement: "What do you want to do?"

The corners of the queen's mouth pursed: "Don't worry, as long as you help me, in the future, the prince will not treat Yun Yin badly." ”

Gan is most afraid of dealing with people like the queen, she has changed from one extreme to another, and she has transformed too quickly. I plan and then act. I don't want to be clear, and I don't do it. But the queen, I really remembered that one play is one play.

Seeing that Gan didn't speak, the queen frowned and said, "I see, he doesn't treat you so much now...... If you don't do anything else, you should also plan for the future of Yunyin. Don't forget, she's not on the genealogy yet. As long as I am here, Yun Yin can not only be on the genealogy, but also become the most noble eldest princess of our Great Zhou. ”

The eldest princess, only the emperor's sisters are crowned as the eldest princess.

The Queen's mind is simply clear. But can such a mind be said in front of a person who ignores friends and enemies? At this level, he dares to plan big things. Do you think you're dying slowly?

Besides, is there someone who can support you? Do you dare to shout?

Gan closed his eyes and said very patiently: "For the sake of our previous friendship, I will persuade you one last time." In the future, I will resolutely not interfere in your affairs again. You remember it for me!" She didn't care about the queen's expression, she just said with a straight face: "The prince is already the prince, as long as An An divides and doesn't make mistakes, then no one can do anything about the prince." But once you move your mind that you shouldn't have, you hit the muzzle of the gun. Do you know how many people are staring at the crown prince's every move? You don't know! Do you have a minister who can respond in the court? You don't! Do you have a military general who can be born and die for you when it is critical? You still don't! You don't know anything, you don't understand anything, what are you tossing!

"Then what do you say I should do?" Gan suddenly became hysterical, "The words behind him are all coaxing me." I'm in my Chinese New Year's Eve, and I'm not a thirteen-year-old girl. It's not two good words, and a good face can fool you through. But before, when he said that he was going to abolish me, that expression, that tone, I know, that is the truth. I've spent half my life for him, and I don't want to have no result in this half of my life!"

Gan closed his eyes tiredly, and then got up: "That's all I say, whether you want to listen or not, it's up to you!"

The queen saw that Gan really said to leave, and hurriedly took a few steps and grabbed Gan's sleeve: "You haven't said it yet......"

Gan pulled his sleeve back, "I don't have a son under my knees, and no one can help me if I don't fight or rob." I'm not involved!"

"You ......" the queen pointed at Gan, but Gan ignored her and turned to go out.

But when I walked outside the main hall, I saw Mama Zhang with an embarrassed face and a prince with a complicated expression.

"Thank you, concubine. Jin Yunshun saluted to Gan. When the prince heard the words just now, he was really frightened into a cold sweat. For the first time, I felt that it was really not a blessing to be recorded in the name of the queen. If she continues like this, she will be implicated and killed sooner or later.

Gan nodded, leaned sideways to avoid it, and only received a half-salute. But he didn't say anything superfluous to the prince.

In the Yilan Palace, Lin Fanghua irritably asked the nurse to hug the crying Brother Yuan'er, and asked the little eunuch who came in to report the news in a low voice, "Did you really hear clearly?"

The little eunuch nodded: "Yes! The emperor said that he wanted to abolish the queen, saying that there was no such Empress Li, and that Empress Li ......"

Lin Fanghua laughed all of a sudden, gave a reward, and then sent the person out.

She took out the blood toad in her arms, and felt that its color had faded a little, did it mean that the phoenix qi on her body was getting stronger and stronger. If the emperor can say the words of the abolition of the queen today, tomorrow will definitely be able to really abolish the queen. Yes, there is no Empress Li Xiangjun, and there is no Empress Li herself.

Finally, one day, I will stand on the highest place.

"Just pull down the prince...... I see what else do you Li Xiangjun rely on!" Lin Fanghua carefully took the blood toad into his arms and muttered.

Autumn is a season of slaughter.

The people of the Chu family, except for one who was sentenced to death for robbing a people's daughter, was sentenced to beheading. The rest was put down. It is said that this is because Chu Yuan has found a good son-in-law, and it is all at this point, and it is not easy for Gong Jin Guogong to come out to intercede for the Chu family. I didn't see that in order to beg the emperor, even my forehead was broken. Mrs. Chu is very grateful, and even the Chu family is also grateful. Chu Huaiyu sneered in his heart, but he wouldn't be stupid and really say anything. The more grateful the Chu family is to Jin Chengan, the more relieved Jin Chengan is, so that he will not think about cutting the grass and eradicating the roots. And he is so quietly dormant, one day, he will be like he bit his grandfather, and he can bite him hard.

Chu Yuan is irreplaceable for the Chu family. But for the imperial court, it is not.

The newly appointed prime minister has been released.

It was Guo Changhe.

"I heard that Concubine Chen once gave a message to the emperor that this Prime Minister Guo Cheng is good at everything, but it is not good at all, and he is too stingy. Guiwu whispered to the fourth master and Lin Yutong about the news he had inquired about, although the fourth master knew much more about these news than he had inquired, "The emperor laughed when he heard it, and rewarded Prime Minister Guo Cheng with a five-entry mansion, and two Zhuangzi, with three thousand taels of silver. In addition, there are various kinds of utensils, and there are countless satins. ”

Lin Yutong chuckled: "This person is stingy, it has nothing to do with whether he has money or not, the key is his temperament." As he spoke, he said suspiciously: "How did Concubine Chen's words to the emperor come out?"

Guiwu shook his head, how did he know where to go? It's just what people say and how he listens.

The fourth master waved his hand and asked Guiwu to go down: "Your Majesty, this is to prevent Guo Changhe from being the person who was installed in advance by Concubine Chen." Concubine Chen said bad things about Guo Changhe, judging from the fact that stingy people are cautious, I am afraid that Guo Changhe will not have a good impression of Concubine Chen. I heard that Concubine Chen is now serving in the imperial study, which is because the emperor is afraid that the people around him will join forces with the prime minister to set him up. Put a nail between the two. ”

"Then it proves that he is not sick and confused. Lin Yutong smacked his lips, according to what the fourth master said, Emperor Yongkang was not lightly ill. It's all on this, and the brain is still turning so neatly, it's really unconvincing.

"For some people, using this little bit of brain, is as simple and necessary as eating and drinking. The fourth master dropped his wife's chess pieces on the chessboard, and chuckled: "One day, when you do this, it's almost the same." As he spoke, he sighed again, looked at Lin Yutong, and then shook his head, "However, your talent is really ......."

Lin Yutong glanced at him, put down a chess piece, and grabbed another corn cob and gnawed it.

Sanxi quietly took away the plate with corn, even a girl like her knew that playing chess was an elegant thing, everyone burned incense, cooked tea, and then played against each other. But as for his own master, the small table on the side is all food. It's not a decent meal, it's a corn cob that the poor eat.

It's also fortunate that I met someone like my uncle, otherwise I would have been disgusted to death. My own girl is not like this in the Lin family, and when she gets married, she is becoming more and more unsophisticated.

The two sat in the pavilion on the top of the hill and played chess, occasionally looking down, the forest was dyed, the autumn wind rose, and the leaves swayed with the branches and trunks, also with a different rhythm. It's a different landscape.

Lin Yutong was working hard and was about to play tricks with the fourth master, Guixi ran up panting, and handed the post in his hand to the fourth master: "Master, a son who claims to be a descendant of the Miao family is visiting." ”

Lin Yutong put down the chess pieces in an instant and sighed: "This one is really patient, and he only found it now." ”

The fourth master looked at the post and handed it back to Guixi: "Go! ”

Miao Zhuang followed this little guy named Guixi, along the path on the mountain, all the way to the mountain. Now, it's a little colder, and the temperature in the mountains is lower. Shuttling through the mountains and forests that have not seen the sun all year round, he couldn't help but tighten the clothes on his body. I wanted to ask a few words about the princess and the concubine, but when I saw that the little guy was very tight-mouthed, he talked about the wild vegetables and weeds on the mountain, but he didn't show any useful words.

When he reached the top of the mountain, looking at a man and a woman sitting in the pavilion playing against each other, he suddenly felt in his heart that he only envied the mandarin duck but not the immortal. Princess Yunyin, he had seen it in the main hall. But this man who is said to be his cousin, he has seen it for the first time. It's not as weak as the legend, but it can't be seen at a glance. Next year is not very old, but I just feel that in front of him, there is nothing to hide.

He gathered his mind and stepped forward to salute.

"Get up. Princess Yunyin said lightly. From her tone, I couldn't hear half of the superfluous emotion.

Miao Zhuang got up, stood aside, and quietly watched the two play chess. People don't ask, and he doesn't say. It wasn't until a game of chess was finished that Princess Yunyin stood up and said with a smile: "I want to move the activity, you go over and continue with the horse." ”

Miao Zhuang bowed in response, watched Princess Yunyin turn around, and then took the small basket and shovel from the girl's hand, as if she really wanted to dig wild vegetables.

"Sit down. The fourth master put away the chess pieces one by one, and then reopened the game, "Black or white?"

"White. Miao Zhuang replied.

The fourth master smiled and didn't speak, and took a step first. Miao Zhuang followed closely behind. The fourth master walked faster and faster, and Miao Zhuang always fell on his son after thinking about it a little.

Until the sky had slowly darkened, Guixi was thinking about whether to put a curtain around the pavilion and light the lamp. This game is just over. In the end, the fourth master won two sons.

"Come back! It's time to eat. The fourth master got up and left.

Miao Zhuang followed. On the way, I listened to Guixi's little servant say that the princess had found some wild vegetables, and when he was about to eat something at night, he didn't find a chance to speak.

He could see that people didn't intend to speak. But if you don't take the initiative to speak, you can't do it.

After entering the courtyard, Miao Zhuang had just mustered up his courage, and heard the colt explain to the servant: "Take good care of the guests, don't be sloppy in your diet." Don't put those wild things on the table for guests. ”

With that, Shi Shiran left. Only the little guy named Guixi was kept, and he led himself to the guest house with a smile.

When Lin Yutong saw the fourth master coming back, he smiled and said, "Wash your hands and eat." ”

The fourth master glanced at the table, and saw that there were really thinly sliced vegetable steamed buns, so he smiled and said, "Do you really eat this?"

"The one on the edge of the brook is tender. Lin Yutong stuffed a piece into the mouth of the fourth master, "How is it? ”

"Hmm!" the fourth master wiped his hands and took a bite, "Yes, fragrant." ”

Lin Yutong said with a smile: "Let's eat less of this first, the palace sent someone to send more than a dozen taro." It should be a tribute from Lipu, I haven't eaten this thing for a long time, I asked someone to steam it, and eat it as a supper at night. ”

"Now send a tribute, a hundred to the capital, I'm afraid that one of the intact ones can be left, it's good. The fourth master shook his head, "It's hard work and money." It's not something you have to eat. ”

As the two spoke, they began to eat. Lin Yutong then asked: "Is Miao Zhuang a real Miao family or a fake Miao family?"

"Didn't ask. The fourth master replied lightly.

"Didn't ask?" Lin Yutong looked at him, "Then why are you delaying it with him for half a day?"

"Didn't you tell me to play chess with others?" said the fourth master as a matter of course.

This man!

"Laugh at me. Lin Yutong glanced out, "Seriously, you tested him for an afternoon." If it weren't for the temptation of him, would he have been able to play chess with you for so long?"

It's not good if people are too familiar with each other, and there is no mystery at all.

The fourth master smiled: "He is a thoughtful person. He is not very old, but he is not arrogant or impatient. After eating, I talked to him again, and it was almost the same. ”

When Miao Zhuang was invited to the study, it was already time to hold the lamp.

The fourth master invited him to sit opposite the bookcase, and said directly: "You tell the truth, are you from the Miao family?" ”

Miao Zhuang said in his heart: Sure enough, he really doubted it.

So he smiled bitterly and sighed: "I am from the Miao family, and my father is Miao Kai." Grandfather Miao Cai, great-grandfather Miao Jin. ”

"If you ask a little about this, you can know it. The fourth master beckoned Gui Xi to serve tea, and looked at Miao Zhuang, "What is the relationship between the Miao family and Chu Yuan and Jin Chengan, I think you also know it." And I only see that you have cooperation with Kim Sung-an. ”

The corners of Miao Zhuang's mouth pursed: "My father and mother are in the hands of Jin Cheng'an, what can I do? It is said that there is now an extra sister." He raised his hand to cover his eyes, "All these years, I have been under Jin Chengan's account...... If I don't obey, what will happen to my parents, I dare not think. I will learn whatever he tells me to learn. I will do whatever he tells me to do. I have never gone against his mind. It took so many years of training like a dog before he dared to let me out. I came to you this time, and that's what he meant. He wants me to gain your trust. ”

With that, he collapsed in his chair as if he had been drained of his strength.

The fourth master frowned, "What you said makes me not quite understandable." What is he holding the people of the Miao family for? What exactly is in the hands of the Miao family, it is worth his calculations. ”

The corners of Miao Zhuang's mouth moved, and he was silent for a long time before he said, "What I know is actually not very clear. But it should be related to a kind of goods that the ancestors of the Miao family used to trade with the green-eyed ghosts on the seaside. ”

Green-eyed?

This refers to foreigners.

"Do you know what it is?" the fourth master looked at Miao Zhuang, "You don't know anything about it, do you?"

Miao Zhuang sighed: "I just heard my father mention it once when I was a child. My grandfather was on the beach and ran into a big boat floating down the river, and the big boat was full of green-eyed ghosts. I don't know where it came from. They had no water on the ship and no food, so they offered to exchange food with their grandfather. They didn't have anything else on board, but there were a lot of black balls, and it was said that even the biggest fish in the sea could kill them when thrown out......"

The fourth master laughed, it turned out that this was the baby Jin Chengan was looking for!

He said earlier, how much he would make for him...... What kind of treasure should you be!
