Chapter 100: "The Dog Follows the Man"
Mu Qing listened carefully, and when Shen Nishang finished explaining the matter, he nodded: "Import raw materials, buy people-is that?"
"Candidates must be more meticulous, although it is said to sign a death deed, but the agreement is dead, the person is alive, and there will be less trouble if there is less trouble. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ļ½ļ½ļ½Uļ½Eć info You look for Huaxun to go with you, and when Yuchun goes with you, he will know. Finally, she asked, "Would your father be upset if you knew about doing this?"
Mu Qing looked at her and lowered his gaze: "He won't know, he is usually in the military camp." ā
Seeing Mu Qing's gloomy expression, Shen Nishang didn't know what to say for a while, so she changed the topic: "I heard that the Queen Mother is unwell?"
Mu Qing raised his head, his brows furrowed, he also got the news.
He also knew it in his previous life, but in the end he couldn't do anything, and he didn't know what he thought at the time, and the news was not exact and specific, so he didn't care about it over time.
It wasn't until I finally received the news that I felt a little guilty and sad.
Shen Nishang saw that he didn't speak, and felt that he didn't seem to be able to find this topic well: "Don't think too much, there is an imperial doctor in the palace, and you can think about it." ā
In her opinion, the Queen Mother is old, and she can't get in the way of anyone's business, if she can save it, the emperor will not let others say it.
It can only be said that the Queen Mother's destiny is so great that manpower cannot be recovered.
"I want to go see my grandmother......" Mu Qing suddenly whispered.
"Now?" Shen Nishang was stunned.
"It's not. Mu Qing whispered, "It's not in a hurry right now, I'll talk about it in a few days." ā
Not in a hurry right now?
Shen Nishang's eyes flashed and stared at him.
Mu Qing only thought that Shen Nishang thought that he thought he was not filial enough: "It's not that I don't want to see my grandmother, it's just that I don't have any ability now, I want to wait for the shop to open, and then I can tell my grandmother to make her happy." Besides, I will also happen to be in the royal capital at that time, and if our incense shop can be opened in the royal capital, we will earn more silver. ā
I actually thought of one thing with her, and it seems that the boy is not really stupid.
Shen Nishang knew that he had misunderstood, so she didn't say much, and nodded to show that she understood: "There is also the matter of the Mi family, what do you think?"
"I plan to let Kong Xiang inquire tomorrow, if it is possible, let Zizheng come forward to buy someone, and it can cost more silver. Zi Zhengcai lost a hipster, and it makes sense to buy someone. If not, they will hire people for money and try to steal them. I inquired earlier, and it seems that the Mi family has practiced kung fu as the boss, and there are not many guards at home. Let's hire a few people who are better at light work, and it should be possible. Mu Qing's eyes lit up, "What do you think?"
At first glance, these two methods seem a bit crude, but when you think about it, they are simple and effective to the goal.
The situation was unclear, and Shen Nishang couldn't say a better way, so he nodded and said that he was preparing first.
After saying that, it was time for Mu Qing to leave, and Shen Nishang got up to send him out.
Mu Qing walked to the door and turned around: "Who caused your injury?"
The snow in the courtyard is white, refracting the moonlight silver, reflecting the starlight in the peach blossom eyes, and the young man's expression is rare and condensed.
Shen Nishang was stunned for a moment, returned to nature, and understated: "When I went back to my parents' house with my wife, I met an unreasonable person and accidentally got it." It's been solved though. ā
"Man?" asked Mu Qing.
Shen Nishang shook her head: "Woman, she is still old." ā
Mu Qing said gloomily: "Next time someone bullies you again, you tell me." ā
"Could it be that you can still help me get it back?" Shen Nishang smiled suddenly, looking at him and pointing at him, "If you really meet a master, are you sure you can beat it?"
Mu Qing choked.
If it was this time in the previous life, he would definitely have the confidence to accept this words, but now...... He hung his head in frustration.
"Okay, it's okay. Thank you very much. Shen Nishang posed as a send-off.
Mu Qing was a little reluctant to leave, but after the words were finished, he could only hang his head and follow Yuchun out.
When he passed by Mrs. Si's courtyard, he suddenly noticed that he looked at a dark half-open window, Yuchun urged him, he withdrew his gaze and followed.
When the others left, Mrs. Si came out of the room with a smile, and Miaohong and Miaozhen also followed.
Miao Hong patted her chest: "Did this Young Master Mu see us?"
Mrs. Si glanced back at her: "Don't open the window too much, these martial arts practitioners are very sharp." He said something strange to himself, "Doesn't it mean that he has practiced kung fu very loosely, so he can detect it?"
"However, although this Young Master Mu is dressed a little strangely, he is really good-looking. Miaohong pressed her elbow against Miaozhen, "Right?"
Miao Zhen pursed her lips and smiled, but did not answer.
Mrs. Si turned around and walked towards her own room: "Okay, what should you do in a hurry, Miaohong take care of her own mouth." ā
The two maids responded in unison, one went to sweep the tail outside the hospital, and the other went to notify all parts of the hospital to lift the ban.
ļ¼ļ¼ļ¼
Shen Nishang met Mu Qing's people on the first day, and met people from Shangzi Road on the second day.
Fortunately, Shangzi Road didn't come blindly, still in the name of Yuchun's relatives.
Yuchun didn't know at first, but when he heard that his cousin was looking for him, he wondered for a while, and when he went out to take a look, the middle-aged man didn't recognize it at all, and finally the other party identified himself, only to know that it was someone sent by Shangzilu.
When he returned to the cross-courtyard and talked to Shen Nishang, Shen Nishang's face immediately sank.
She only told Mu Qing last night that she would go to the South Gate Mansion to find Hua Xun to do things together, but she also said that she wanted Yuchun to go with her. Mu Qing obviously didn't pass the news over so quickly.
Shang Zilu knew about her injury at this time, needless to say, it could only mean that her every move was in the sight of others.
Shang Zilu is not such a character, only Ling Fei can do this!
Seeing that Shen Nishang's face was wrong, but there were still people waiting outside, Yuchun had to ask carefully: "What did Miss say?" Young Master Shang said, if you want to help, say it." ā
"Bring a pen and paper. Shen Nishang commanded.
Waiting for Yuchun to bring the pen and ink, Shen Nishang quickly wrote down twelve words, dried and folded them, and handed them to Yuchun: "You let his master hand it over to Lao Qi." ā
Yuchun saw clearly what Shen Nishang wrote, but she didn't understand what it meant when she thought about it along the way, and when she came back from sending the letter, she couldn't hold back: "The eagle strikes the sky, the dragon walks in the water, and the dog walks with the people-Miss, what does this mean?"
Shen Nishang lay back on the bed and flipped through the book: "Don't understand?"
Yuchun shook his head honestly and looked at her with eyes full of curiosity.
"It doesn't matter if you don't understand, someone just needs to understand. Shen Nishang raised her eyebrows.

In the courtyard outside the city, Ling Fei was along the wall, chasing the chickens and dogs on Shangzi Road.
Both of them used the cloud trail step, and they learned it at the same time, so one couldn't catch up, and the other couldn't get rid of it.
"Can you have a longer brain? Don't you run to ask her now just to tell her that we have someone to follow her?" After chasing for a long time and unable to catch up, Ling Fei stopped even though he was extremely angry and didn't want to do it for nothing, so he stopped and threw the sword in his hand with the scabbard on the ground.
People who practice martial arts love weapons, and Ling Fei usually cherishes his sword very much, seeing him act like this, Shang Zilu also knows that he is really angry.
He stopped and leaned over: "I really didn't think about it so much, I just heard you say that she was beaten and hurt a lot." It's rare for a woman to lose her temper with us, and we can be regarded as friends, and friends naturally want to be righteous and angry, and stick a knife in both sides, right? How did I know that her brain turned so fast-"
Speaking of this, he remembered the phrase "dogs follow people" again, and then thought of the colorful colors on Ling Fei's face when he handed the letter, and he couldn't help but want to laugh again!
Lao Qi probably has never suffered this kind of anger in his life, but he is not dirty, and he didn't point to Lao Qi and say that it was a dog, and Lao Qi couldn't find a place if he wanted to be angry. The more Shang Zilu thought about it, the more he felt funny and wanted to laugh, and he glanced at Lao Qi out of the corner of his eye, but he still tried his best to suppress it.
"Her brain alone is worth ten of you, you can use your pig brain to think about her!" Ling Fei sat on the stump of the tree, regardless of the residual snow on it, pulled off a dead grass and threw it in half, and then pulled another one and pulled it again, as if he could vent the depression in his heart.
He Ling Fei has lived for eighteen years, not to mention being loved by thousands of people, and no one has ever dared to give him such an ugly look in person!
Dogs go with people!
even named Shang Zilu to give him the letter!
This woman is so bold!
"You didn't make it clear yesterday, what was the situation at that time?" Shang Zilu picked up the sword and slapped the snow off it, sat down next to him, and squeezed him.
"I don't know!" he snapped back.
"Don't be angry, come on, don't you send a secret guard to follow?" Shang Zilu smiled and grabbed his shoulder, was thrown away by him, and cheekily picked it up, "Who is with whom of our brothers, this time I will do it, how about owing you a time?"
"The Shadow Gun. Ling Fei squinted at him.
Shang Zilu felt pain for a long time, and nodded in response: "Okay, the Sun Gun will be the Sun Gun!" But if I want to play in the future, you have to borrow me." ā
Ling Fei looked at him with a proud expression: "Look at the master's mood." ā
Shang Zilu is also a temperament that can afford to let go, and he is reluctant to return, but he doesn't think about it when he gives it: "Now you can say it." She didn't have much strength, so how could she run to help others block it? Since the old woman was practicing martial arts, and she was on an ebony crutch, she really had to go up, and half her life was gone...... What's going on?"
Shang Zilu was originally a martial idiot, Ling Fei had only spoken a few words earlier, and he didn't understand how Shen Nishang dealt with it after pondering for a long time, so he felt itchy and unbearable.
Ling Fei remembered what the secret guard had reported to him.
He only returned to Yunzhou yesterday, and as soon as he came back, the secret guard reported to him.
At that time, he didn't understand, so the secret guard rehearsed it on the spot, and after watching it, his first reaction was that if Shen Nishang practiced martial arts, he would not be her opponent nine times out of nine!
Talent is the most important thing in martial arts.
Don't talk about him, as far as he has seen, there is no one who can match this woman's talent and understanding in martial arts.
She seems to have a sensitivity that ordinary people can't match, in the shortest possible time, to peek into the other party's shortcomings, and then use all the resources around her, not only is it not missing, but it can even be described as extremely exquisite.
It is extremely bold, and the accuracy of its calculations is almost to the extreme!
He didn't bother to say anything, he pulled up Shang Zilu and drew a gourd in the same way to demonstrate, and then regardless of Shang Zilu standing there stunned, he pulled back the sword that was used as an ebony crutch, and took out a handkerchief to wipe off the residual snow stains that had not been cleaned.
Shang Zilu went through the scene in his mind, and only then did he figure it all out, and he was immediately impressed.
"This woman is not ordinary, if you can't subdue it, don't think about it!" Ling Fei warned Shang Zilu.
It is impossible for them to marry a non-scholar woman as a regular wife, and Shen Nishang is like this, I am afraid that few women in the world can suppress it. If you really want to be included in the house, I am afraid that the back house will be turned upside down.
Shang Zilu was stunned before he understood Ling Fei's intentions: "Am I that kind of person, I just feel that Miss Shen has a temper, those we know, the status is low, but if there is a little bit of posture, the identity is equivalent, either the eyes grow to the sky or you can call a worm for a long time - can you talk to them?"
"I can't say it, anyway, you have to pick the main house from the inside in the future. Ling Fei still didn't believe him, "You really didn't take a fancy to her, why did you blush when you saw her?"
Shang Zilu scratched his head: "That's because she has a good voice, don't you think? She talks like singing, I think she is good-looking, but with people like this, even if we are scholars, I think she may not be able to look down on her." ā
Where is there such a long time for others to destroy their own prestige!
Ling Fei glanced at him, but deep down in his heart, he also vaguely felt that Shang Zilu's statement might be true.
"Don't worry, I don't want to marry you. Not now, and not in the future. ā
ā¦ā¦ā¦ā¦
Suddenly, the girl's beautiful face and the indifferent expression at that time appeared in my mind.
"By the way, your secret guard didn't follow someone else's boudoir, did you?" Shang Zilu asked in a low voice.
He is not a young person, how can he not know the proportions, Ling Fei said angrily: "I only let her follow, and I don't spy on her secrets, the secret guard only follows her when she leaves the mansion." ā
Shang Zilu smiled, relieved in his heart, it's good if there is not, if there is, Shen Nishang doesn't know what kind of anger he will become, and it is not easy for him to be caught in the middle.
"Actually, you want to protect her, right?" he asked with a grin.
Ling Fei snorted and didn't answer.
On the second day of the first year, the dark guard also planned to use a hidden weapon, but first, the incident happened suddenly, and secondly, the people in the hall were crowded into a pile, and he was not sure not to hurt others, so he didn't do it.
He chose the best secret guard light skill, originally because he was afraid that Shen Nishang would find out, even if he knew that she didn't know martial arts, but she was full of secrets, who knew what skills she still hid, so he sent one of his subordinates with the best light skills, who knew that people were not as good as heaven, or they were discovered.
As he spoke, he thought of the piece of paper he tore apart, this damn woman!
"How long are you going to stay this time?" After gossiping, although he knew that his courtyard was safe, Shang Zilu still swept his eyes around before asking.
When it comes to business, Ling Fei also takes a few points seriously.
His arrival in Yunzhou was not what it seemed.
From the outsider's point of view, most people think that he and Shangzilu grew up together since childhood, and they are good brothers, and he is now just an adult and has no position, so he has nothing to do, so he went to Yunzhou to hang out.
But since last year, he has been here, and in fact, he has received an edict from the emperor to secretly conduct a military and political survey of Yunzhou.
Yunzhou is close to the Zhongjiang River and is the nearest choke point of the royal capital.
It can be said that the stability of Yunzhou represents the stability of the royal capital.
Since ancient times, the position of Yunzhou general has been extraordinary.
The Mu family and merchants have taken turns to be in charge of the military and government of Yunzhou for nearly three hundred years, even if the current Yunzhou general Mu Dongheng is the emperor's brother-in-law, but in the past twenty years, the emperor has not completely trusted Yunzhou.
In addition, since last year, Cangguo has declared war on Weiguo, and the countries look calm on the surface, but there are a lot of actions in private.
As the only heir of Enhou Mansion and the nephew of Empress Ling, Ling Fei has been very smart since he was a child, and his martial arts talent is also good, and he is deeply loved by the emperor and queen.
Last year, when he was not yet eighteen, the emperor asked him to come to Yunzhou to observe secretly, in addition to the two factors of trust and not being eye-catching, it was not without cultivation.
And before leaving the royal capital this time, the emperor also secretly summoned him and issued him a new mission.
This task is indeed not simple, and the stakes are very high, even if Ling Fei has always been proud, he also feels a great responsibility.
Shang Zilu's question, he frowned and thought about it: "It's not easy to say right now, let's see the situation." ā
Shang Zilu knew that he was the emperor's secret envoy, but he didn't ask what the specific task was, and when he heard Ling Fei say this, he also knew that he didn't ask anymore.
"I'm going to join the army. Shang Zilu talked about his own business.
Ling Fei didn't think it was surprising, the two were together when they wore open crotch pants, Shang Zilu's volunteer to fight small was to join the army, and now that Shang Zilu has reached the age of nineteen, it is also time.
"Where are you going?" he asked.
Yunzhou has 200,000 troops, of which 150,000 are under the command of General Mu Dongheng, and only 50,000 are under the jurisdiction of Shangzilu's uncle, of which 30,000 are logistics, and the remaining 20,000 are reserve troops, and General Mu Dongheng also has the right to select the best from the 20,000 reserve new army at any time to supplement his banner.
In addition, General Shang only had the right to make proposals in military affairs, and all final resolutions on military affairs could only be made by Mu Dongheng before they could be finally implemented.
Both of them are second-grade martial arts, but the difference between the principal and deputy is but the actual authority is very different, so it is no wonder that when the staff proposed to train Mu Qing to take the road of deputy, Mu Dongheng regarded it as a humiliation.
Regarding the situation in General Shang's Mansion, Ling Fei was still relatively clear.
General Shang now has five concubines, the eldest is only fifteen years old, and these six sons are not outstanding, and they are not half of Shang Zilu, so General Shang also attaches great importance to this nephew.
Although Shang Zilu's mother was very displeased with General Shang's stepwife, General Shang usually took care of Shang Zilu, and the merchants secretly speculated that General Shang was cultivating the young master of the third room as the heir.
However, these are also the private speculations of the masters and subordinates of all parties, General Shang is now in his prime, and even if he has this meaning, it will be in the future.
Because of General Shang's care, although Shang Zilu also hated the eldest aunt who was born now, he was extremely respectful and admiring General Shang.
Ling Fei's problem, Shang Zilu also had a lot of entanglements earlier.
But now he also figured it out and made a decision.
"I'm going to Seventeen Road. He replied.
10,000 people marched to the army, sixteen to twenty routes, these 50,000 people were under the jurisdiction of the Shang generals, and the sixteenth and seventeenth roads were reserved troops composed of new recruits every year.
Ling Fei frowned: "It's not easy to get ahead in the seventeenth road, especially if you are still a businessman, why don't you go directly to the top ten roads." With your current skills, you are enough to get through. If there is a war in the future, it will be extremely difficult for the new army to enter the battlefield. ā
If you don't have military merits, you can't be promoted, and even if General Shang intends to pass on to him, if you don't have meritorious deeds, others may not be able to accept them.
What's more, not all newcomers can only enter the reserve army, if they have enough ability, they can pass the assessment, and they can also be assigned to the top fifteen roads.
Ling Fei was not optimistic about his decision.
Even if you are the best in the new army, in the eyes of others, you are still short and tall, and it is not convincing.
If Mu Dongheng didn't pick him, wouldn't he have to stay in the New Army all the time.
"I understand what you're saying, but I think about it. Shang Zilu grabbed his hair bun, "I don't want that position either, because of this, my aunt has been looking for trouble with my mother." When I joined the new army, I could train as much as I needed and learn how I needed. I want to be a general because of my own ability, not on my uncle. If our Dali wife is peaceful, it doesn't hurt for me to be a big soldier. Originally, when I was young, I was ignorant, and I felt that being a general was quite majestic, but now that I think about it, it is nothing, and if I practice kung fu, if I use it in the future, it will naturally be useful. If you don't want to be a general, if you can be a martial arts supreme, you will be just as majestic. ā
"Martial Dao Supreme?" Ling Fei remembered his old hatred and glanced at him with contempt, "Just by your pig head?"
"I'm not as smart as you, I admit it. Shang Zilu was not angry at all, he smiled, grabbed Ling Fei's shoulders and squeezed his eyebrows: "But I said Seventh, I can remember it for you." Count this time, you have eaten three times in the hands of others, right? The last two times are forgotten, I see, this time the situation is not very good-in case people want to break up with us, do you want to be in trouble?"
ļ¼ļ¼ļ¼
After Shen Nishang sent the letter out, she was in a much better mood, and was about to squint for a while, when she heard the news that the second young master Shen Muheng was coming to visit.
She suddenly remembered that she hadn't told Mrs. Si about promising Shen Muheng on Chinese New Year's Eve, but she couldn't walk around the courtyard at the moment, so she could only let Yuchun go to the front, and if Mrs. Si asked, let Yuchun and Miaohong explain a thing or two.
Yuchun went out and came back in less than two sticks of incense.
"The second young master has already left, and the slave and maid have also reported to the lady. Yuchun reported the situation, "Don't worry, Miss. The second young master didn't know that the young lady didn't say it, he mentioned it to Mrs. Si, and Mrs. Si said that she already knew about it, and later rejected the second young master. The second young master sat down with a stick of incense, and then left. ā
"How did Madame refuse?" asked Shen Nisheng.
Madame said that she was a little interested, but now that the young lady is sick, Madame said that she is not in the mood to do anything else for the time being, and said that she will talk about it later, so she sent the second young master away. Yuchun said, and at the end of the sentence, he added with great admiration, "Madame is really smart, the second young master didn't see that the young lady didn't tell Madame about this at all." ā
Mrs. Si did not agree to Shen Muheng's investment in shares, and Shen Nishang still had some expectations. (To be continued.) )
