Chapter 7: Hidden Disasters Are Everywhere
Let's say that this small people are the most snobbish, with eyes like eagles and hearts like smart foxes. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info not to mention Xia Heng, the best in the middle.
I saw Xia Heng raise his eyebrows slightly, and said with a smile: "It's just a low-class miscellaneous servant, who is cautious and refreshing in his speech, and acts in a measured manner." The opposite of things is a demon, that kid is too eye-catching. In Shao Ye's Guogong Mansion, if even this kind of three-popular son has such qualities, don't say that it is Emperor Xiao, I also have to guard against you. ”
"Good eyesight." Shao Changyun praised it.
"It's just a way to survive, but you can borrow it?"
"Leave it to him. If you get rid of him, you will startle the snake and arouse Emperor Xiao's suspicion; In addition, other eyes have to be dug out with great effort. Not everyone is so conspicuous, how can they get all this idle time. Shao Changyun didn't care, and said lightly: "With him, Emperor Xiao can rest assured of me." ”
Xia Heng raised his sword eyebrows, rolled the scroll casually, and was about to stuff it into his arms.
"Wait." Shao Changyun intercepted Xia Heng's movements and reminded, "Put it in a casual place." ”
"Order." Although he didn't understand what he meant, Xia Heng still answered and pinned the scroll to the linen belt around his waist.
Shao Changyun saw that he had put away the scroll, and then looked sideways at the courtyard. The black-faced little guy and a few little guys were hiding from the sun under the eaves of the verandah in the distance. Shao Changyun squinted his eyes and dragged his gaze from them one by one, and when he saw that there was no abnormality, he gathered his sleeves and got up, and put away the light smile that had been overflowing the corners of his lips, with a straight face.
Xia Heng saw him with such a solemn look, and he was stunned. I saw Shao Changyun hiding his hand in his sleeve, raising his hand to increase his forehead, and bowing down to make a big bow. Xia Heng was suddenly startled in his heart, took a few steps back one after another, and turned sideways to avoid Shao Changyun's big gift.
Shao Changyun bowed respectfully and sincerely, and then said earnestly: "Since you don't want to accept my full salute, you must be unwilling to accept what I ask for." ”
Xia Heng raised his head suddenly, his gaze was as sharp as a peak blade, and he looked straight at Shao Changyun's eyes, without a trace of hesitation. He stepped forward, clasped his fists in salute, and raised his head and said: "I am willing to be a gentleman with a sword in my hand, and I would rather lose my sword than abandon my loyal soul." ”
Shao Changyun closed his eyelashes and sighed: "Back then, it was just Raul who raised his hand. What I am looking for today is at least my body and head in a different place, and at worst it is a crushing of bones and ashes. And you still don't change your mind? ”
Xia Heng stood up like a pine, the green tendons on the back of his hand were bursting, his expression was resolute, he did not waver for half a minute, and said solemnly: "The grace of a plan is like being reborn." The sky is falling, and this grace is not lost. ”
Shao Changyun's eyebrows touched slightly, and a breath of turbid air seemed to come out of his chest. It wasn't until here that Shao Changyun really believed in this person, and all the previous temptations were removed. Then Zhengse said: "There is an object that I want to borrow your power and take it out." ”
With that, Shao Changyun stepped to the side of the bookcase and carefully removed the rosewood circle chair behind the bookcase. The movements were gentle, without making a sound. After revealing the flat stone bricks on the ground, Fang took out a small copper pry from under the bookcase with his backhand and pried open the underground green bricks one by one. Only three pieces were raised, and the faint wood color could be seen.
When Shao Changyun opened all the green bricks in front of him, a one-foot-square black hole was revealed. Xia Heng took a look, only to see that there was an old wooden box in it, which had not been locked, and it seemed to be some years old.
Shao Changyun reached out and lifted the lid of the box, and took out a plain brocade bag from it. I don't know what was in the baggage, but when I moved slightly, it jingled. Shao Changyun secretly glanced at Xia Heng, Xia Heng understood, flashed to the window, and peered out from the crack in the window to watch the movements of everyone outside.
After receiving Xia Heng's signal, Shao Changyun covered the box, buried the green bricks one by one, and carefully swept the thin soil to fill in the cracks between the bricks, before carefully moving the circle chair back to its original place. At that time, the study was restored as before, and there was no abnormality.
Shao Changyun put the burden in his arms on the bookcase, and when he looked at it, it was a square red gold ingot, and Shao Changyun picked one at random and handed it to Xia Heng. Xia Heng wiped his hand, looked down twice, and couldn't help but be surprised.
Since the founding of the country, in order to prevent the disadvantages of private gold and silver minting, the gold and silver ingots in circulation have been cast with table marks to show the source. However, this gold ingot is smooth and does not have a trace.
Xia Heng lowered his voice and said busily: "Privately minting gold and silver is a big crime, why do you do such a dangerous thing?" ”
"These coins are bothering you to do something for me." Shao Changyun rubbed the gold ingot, his eyes were gloomy, and said: "Dacheng treasure banknotes and official gold and silver ingots all have seals and watches, if you use these silver coins to trade, it is difficult to guarantee that you will not find me in the future." What I did was dangerous, and I didn't want to get into trouble. ”
In between words, he pointed to the scroll on Xia Heng's waist and said, "What I entrusted has been copied on paper, and it is hidden in the shaft of this scroll. When you go out to the outer world, you will be troubled. ”
Xia Heng raised his head and hugged his fists and said: "Even if you die, you will definitely live up to Shao Ye's trust." ”
Shao Changyun raised his hand and patted Xia Heng's arm, silent. I went to take the broken wooden box that Xia Heng had on his back, took out all the stones that were brought in inside, and threw them into the potted plant in front of the partition door, and then put all the gold ingots in and handed them to Xia Heng.
Xia Heng stretched out his hand to take it, shook his hand and weighed it, but it was not much compared to the previous one, so he was puzzled: "Although I am not good at kung fu, it is still small to climb the wall and enter the house." Shao Ye commanded, pick a midnight time, I came in to pick it up, why bother. ”
"This move is too risky, and if you don't realize it, you won't lose both."
Between the words, Shao Changyun picked up a small water spoon from the water on the bookcase, picked up the ink ingot, collected the sleeves and polished the ink, and shook his head and sighed: "And that black-faced little guy is a good player, I'm afraid that before you can come in, let him find the trace." Why not, it is grandiose and unaware. ”
Xia Heng showed respect on his face and said respectfully: "The master of power and strategy should be like Shao Ye, and Xia is respectful." ”
"Not as good as my father." Shao Changyun's eyes were slightly astringent, his lips were slightly astringent, his expression was discrete and ethereal, and the meaning of his words was sad. "The things entrusted are only for the stub under the fire, and there should be no power scheme."
Xia Heng was very powerful for a while, and suddenly knew the deep meaning of Shao Changyun's words, so he asked: "Emperor Xiao will really make a move on the Shao family?" ”
Shao Changyun smiled gloomily, and his words were mixed with a shallow and weak sigh. Said slowly: "It's just a matter of thinking about it. ”
Xia Heng's sword eyebrows were deep, and his expression turned slightly solemn, "You will never do anything useless, you must have noticed something, and you will do this method of preservation." ”
Shao Changyun thanked him for his sincerity, and said frankly: "At the end of last year, the generation of bandits who stayed in Jinling were rampant, robbing homes and houses, bullying men and women, and doing all kinds of evil. The people of Jinling are like throwing water and fire, and they are miserable. Jinling County Shou Pan Mu 800 li urgent document submitted to the front of the emperor, urgently asking Emperor Xiao to send troops to suppress it. Emperor Xiao was furious when he heard this, and Zhu Bi approved the expedition to suppress the bandits. At that time, the current Xiangguo Gong Xie Yongzhong relapsed from old age and illness, and failed to put on armor to fight. ”
Speaking of this time, Shao Changyun's expression was slightly sad, and he continued: "At that time, the Manchu Dynasty civil and military forces could not find a usable general. His sister-in-law, Xie Tingyue, knocked on the sky and said that he could go on behalf of his father. Emperor Xiao was overjoyed and appointed Xie Yongzhong's eldest son Xie Tingyue as the general of the Broken Prisoner, and his second son Xie Tingyu as the general. The two immediately led their troops to Jinling to conquer the bandits. ”
Xia Heng was originally a bold person, and when he heard this, he couldn't help but praise: "This Xie Tingyue should also be a young talent, but in just seven months, all the rogue bandits in the Jinling area have been wiped out. This victory and return to the dynasty must also be an official and a knight. ”
Shao Changyun stood with his hands in his hands, his eyes were cold, his tone was cold, and he continued to say: "Yesterday, Emperor Xiao secretly ordered him to return to Beijing, and the eldest daughter of the Duke of Dingguo, Shao Shi, was ready to marry on the same day, and wait for the army to return to Beijing in triumph, and marry Xie Tingyu, the son of the Duke of Xiangguo, on a certain day. ”
Xia Heng never heard the chill in Shao Changyun's words, and said happily: "Master Shao, this is a happy letter of double happiness, Xia is here to congratulate you." ”
Shao Changyun was silent for a moment and sighed lightly. "Misfortune and blessing are relied upon, and blessing and misfortune are lurking. Saion lost his horse and knew that it was not a blessing, and this gentle message did not know whether it was a hidden danger of losing a horse with a good horse. ”
"Master Shao, why do you say this?"
Shao Changyun did not answer directly, but only tactfully said an old story.
"During the Xuanwen period, Cheng Xie and the two clans concluded a good relationship between the two surnames. After the establishment of the country, Cheng Yong's military achievements were dominant, and there was no one to hide his edge. In the second year of Chongde, Cheng Yong repaired the Anguo Mansion and was cut off because of the Yue system. His sister Cheng, although she married Xie Song, the Duke of Xiangguo, as her wife in her early years, was still connected by the plant and committed suicide in the mansion. At that time, the Duke of Anguo was the first duke, and he ended. ”
When Xia Heng heard this, he gasped and said in shock: "Today, the Xie clan is sharp, especially the Cheng clan back then. This Xiangguo Mansion is hard to guarantee that it is not the next Anguo Mansion. ”
"This is where my worries lie, the Xie family has been prosperous, and this time they have made military achievements, which is really a great prosperity of cooking oil and flowers. At this time, Emperor Xiao secretly told Xie Shao and the two families to marry Zhu Chen. Although there are no immediate worries, in the long run, it is really not a wise move for the two powers to intersect. ”
"Emperor Xiao's move, if it is really to emulate Chongde's two years. There is only one reason for 'Xie Shao's secret communication and bad intentions', and Xie Shao's two families are in danger. Xia Heng sighed and said urgently. At this point, is there really no way to crack it? ”
Shao Changyun's eyelashes trembled slightly, his voice blocked his throat and it was difficult to open, and the room was silent for a moment.
You have to know if Shao Changyun has a way to crack it, and listen to the next parting.
