Chapter 076: Women Are Not Easy to Mess With (1)
ββ¦β¦ Ning, what are you doing? How easily did you let those Tartars get their hands on them? β
The man on the wooden bed scolded, "I am still different from other women, and today it seems that you are also a useless waste, and a huge palace is almost buried in your hands...... Stupid woman, what a stupid woman! β
The woman in the palace, that is, Concubine Ning of the palace, she didn't look at the man at all, and still played with the tea cup in her hand idly. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biqugeγ info
Perhaps in her opinion, the celadon pattern on the tea bowl is also more beautiful than the bastard thing in front of her.
Regarding the man's accusation, she only replied lightly, "It was not me who let King Liang settle in Annan that day, and it was not me who tried to promote the cooperation between King Xiaoliang and the palace!" β
After saying that, she also deliberately glanced at the man opposite. The implication is self-evident: dear, it is not me who lures wolves into the house and raises tigers, but you, the 'wronged boss' who thinks you are smart and thinks you can play with the world's people, but finally loses to a 'stupid woman'.
Concubine Ning's sarcasm was too strong, even if the other party was really a fool, she could feel her disdain and contempt.
The man was already on fire in his belly, but when he saw her like this, he became more and more angry, and a pair of cloudy old eyes flashed with bone-eating resentment, and his two hands that were as dry as chicken claws clenched and loosened.
After Concubine Ning finished mocking, she lowered her head again, admiring her softness with great interest. Her hands are excellently maintained, white as snow and as fine as cream, with no age spots or fine lines.
The ten fingers are like spring onions, and the inch-long nails are dyed with impatiens juice, and the bright red nails are more and more lined with the tender white and silky hands.
"You, you~~"
Seeing that Concubine Ning didn't take himself in his eyes like this, the anger in his chest almost burned his reason.
The thin chest rose and fell violently, and it took him a while before he stabilized his mind and said stiffly: "The palace is occupied by the Tartars, what about the outside?" Is it all going according to my deployment? β
"Well, everything went according to plan,"
Concubine Ning still didn't look up, rubbing one finger at a time, looking at the focused appearance, as if admiring a peerless treasure.
But she didn't stop, and said slowly: "It's just that I've cut off contact with the front in the past two days, and I don't know what's going on over there." Hmm, it should go well, right?! β
The tone is still so casual, as if he doesn't care about the 'great cause' that has been planned for more than ten years.
The man's brow furrowed, a wizened finger gesturing back and forth on the straw mat beneath him, his lips twitching, but he didn't make a sound.
After a while, he stretched his eyebrows and said, "That's it, it's up to people to do things, and things are in the sky, and things have reached the point in front of us, and we can only resign ourselves to fate." β
Concubine Ning snorted from her nose and responded.
The man's face was gloomy, and he suddenly said: "Since you are not King Xiaoliang's opponent, then hand over the things in your hand to the 'Dark Eighteen', we are already trapped, but we can't give up our lives!" β
He made it clear that he didn't believe in Concubine Ning's ability.
Don't look at the fact that he fell in love with Concubine Ning back then, and ended up in such a situation where he is not a person or a ghost now, but he still looks down on Ning in his bones, and always feels that she is a woman, so she should stay in the back house obediently and go outside to show up, and the consequences can only be as bad as now!
Concubine Ning's lowered eyes flashed, dark eighteen?
Well, it turned out that the man was 'him'!
Finally got the answer she wanted, Concubine Ning didn't want to stay in the same room with this man, she got up and responded: "Okay, I'll go and leave everything to Dark Eighteen." β
In the past few decades, the Annan palace has secretly raised and trained a large number of secret agents and enchanted agents.
Among them, the men are all 'secret agents', and then they are ranked according to comprehensive factors such as ability and contribution to the palace.
And the woman is the 'Detective'.
Concubine Ning has controlled the palace for more than 20 years, and most of the secret agents and enchanted agents have been firmly controlled by her, but there are still a few extremely secret people, and she doesn't even know the identities and details of those people.
These people are the hardcore henchmen of the palace such as the dark one and the dark three, and only the real owners of the palace know their information, and use special seals to give orders to them.
It's a pity that the first king died in a hurry, and the 'heir' was still in the mother's womb, so there was a fault in the most critical inheritance of the palace, and Concubine Ning missed the elite of those elites.
At first, Concubine Ning didn't care, isn't it just a few secret agents, there are more people in the palace to use, and it doesn't matter if there are a few.
Later, some things made her deeply understand that those people could be regarded as 'trump cards' by the palace, and there was indeed merit.
In order to find out the situation of those people and find out the truth of an incident back then, even if Concubine Ning hated the man in front of her very much, she finally left one of his dogs' lives.
However, to Concubine Ning's surprise, this person really couldn't bear it, and for more than 20 years, no trace was revealed.
If it weren't for the fact that the palace was in danger of survival, I'm afraid he wouldn't have shown any traces.
"Go ahead!"
Of course, the man knew that the Ning family had other plans, but he also knew that the Ning family was a smart woman, and she should not be in trouble with Ronghua and wealth.
Concubine Ning walked out of the hut, walked slowly to her bedroom, and met Princess Lin of Annan head-on.
"I've seen my mother."
After going through so many things one after another, the Lin family is still Mu Mu's honest appearance, and he is even more respectful when he sees his mother-in-law.
Concubine Ning paused, raised her eyes to look at the Lin family, and a cold voice sounded: "You, very good." It's a pity that he shouldn't marry into the palace. Maybe it's over! β
Lin's eyelids jumped, she was a woman, she might not understand those military affairs outside, but some things could understand Concubine Ning's mind very well.
Perhaps for men, success and supremacy are the most important, as long as they can succeed, all grievances can be resolved, and family affection, love and everything can be sacrificed.
But for women who value feelings, status and wealth are floating clouds, and what they care about most is a sincere partner and a promise of a couple for a lifetime.
If someone breaks her oath or ruins a woman's happiness, she will do everything in her power to retaliate!
The Lin family had a strong premonition that Concubine Ning in front of him was such a woman.
It's all coming to an end?
Could it be ......
Lin's heart was pounding, and a terrible thought flashed through his mind. She opened her mouth, but it turned into a sigh.
Concubine Ning seems to be beautiful, but she is actually an unfortunate person, without a husband or son, what is the point of more glory and wealth?
Concubine Ning took Lin's reaction in her eyes, curled the corners of her lips, and felt a little regretful in her heart: It's a smart child, it's a pity!
β¦β¦
Qi Jinyi and the pedestrian hurried on the road.
As the Tartar at the gate of the city said, there are many checkpoints set up by the palace along the way.
Fortunately, the number of people at each checkpoint is not large, about twenty or thirty people, which is enough for ordinary officials or ordinary people. Qi Jinzhi and they are different, the people brought by Xiao Shisan are all carefully selected good players, it can't be said that one enemy is a hundred, but one person is not a problem to deal with three or five.
Every time they encountered obstacles, before the carriage they were riding in arrived, the people who opened the road in front of them knocked the guards down, and the carriage could be said to be smooth all the way.
The confusion on Qi Jinzhi's face deepened, "These people are too vulnerable!" β
Gu Jialuo also pondered, "Well, something is really wrong. These peopleβ"
The situation encountered along the way was too strange, to put it mildly, it was an expert like Qi Jinzhi, even Gu Jialuo, a layman, who saw the problem, "They seem to be acting, no, no, they are going through the procedure." β
It seems that he deliberately wants to let go of a court official like Qi Jinzhi, symbolically blocking it, and if he can't stop it, he will lie down and pretend to be dead.
If these checkpoints were ordered by King Xiao Liang, then it would be easy to understand, after all, Qi Jinzhi and they had already guessed King Xiao Liang's intentions.
But the question is-
King Xiaoliang successfully occupied the palace, but he may not be able to control the palace. And he succeeded last night, the news could not have spread so quickly, and his orders could not have been issued so smoothly at every level.
It's not King Xiaoliang, so it's the order of the palace?
And what is this for? The front is pulling the flag and rebelling with great fanfare, and the back is deliberately releasing water?
What exactly does Concubine Ning want to do?
"Go through the program?" Qi Jinzhi felt that this statement was a bit novel, but when he thought about it, it was very vivid.
He rehashed what happened today, and a thought suddenly appeared in his mind, "The palace seems to be showing weakness, oh no, to be exact, the palace is creating an illusion, as if deliberately making people feel that the situation of the palace is very difficult, and several masters of the palace are in a crisis of life and death!" β
Gu Jialuo nodded slowly, she also felt this way.
It's good, but the question is, why did Concubine Ning do this?
The husband and wife looked at each other, and each thought all the way, until they left Annan and stepped into the realm of Wusa, but they could not find the answer.
"County honor, madam, are you back?!"
When Zhou Wenyuan and Meng Fu heard the news, they were excited, and the two of them dropped their errands, shook off their feet and ran out. I happened to see the little couple of the Qi family getting out of the carriage.
Seeing the intact appearance of the two with their own eyes, the two people who are known for their steadiness were so happy that they couldn't speak, and they only said such nonsense for a long time.
Qi Jinzhi's injured arm was attached vertically to his leg, and he tried his best to look unharmed, and said with a smile: "It's been hard for two of you these days. β
The corner of Gu Jialuo's eyes stared at Qi Jinzhi's right arm, but in the eyes of outsiders, she was obediently following her husband's side.
Qi Dayong also knew his master's injury, and he was anxious to call the doctor, so he reminded: "Uncle, let's go in and talk about it if you have something to say." The little leg hurt so badly that Dr. Yan just came over to take a look. β
Gu Jialuo handed him a 'good job' look.
Qi Dayong grinned proudly.
Zhou Wenyuan's heart was as careful as a hair, and he was keenly aware of the eye contact between the three of them, his gaze swept over Qi Jinzhi's body, and his eyelids jumped slightly when he passed his slightly stiff right arm. There was still speculation in my mind.
He hurriedly echoed: "What the Qi guards said is, County Zun, madam, you must be tired and tight after such a long journey, so let's go back to Houya and rest first." β
Meng Fu reacted quickly, and hurriedly said: "What Mr. Zhou said is that you two should come in first, it is just time to have breakfast, and after breakfast, it is not too late for subordinates and Mr. Zhou to go back and forth!" β
While talking, the two of them and the officials hugged Qi Jinzhi and his wife into the county office.
Xiao Shisan didn't speak, leaving two people to guard the door, and the others followed in.
The figures of the people disappeared behind the gate of the county government, and a head popped out of the alley on one side, carefully observed, and quietly retreated.
"Qi Jingguan is back? How can it be? The prefect of Liang is dead, how can he escape from Annan with a small Qipin county order? β
Ma Zhongtai's eyes widened in disbelief and asked in a loud voice.
How did the person who came to report this know?
He craned his neck, trying to lower his presence.
Although he is just an errand runner and is not a confidant of the Ma family, he is still aware of what has happened in the county and the Ma family in the near future.
Just kidding, there is a huge Ma family, and now only Ma Zhongtai and his children are left, and the owner of Ma Lao Village and several clan elders have all left.
The official statement given by the Ma family is that the old man is old and has not been in good health recently, and he wants to go back to the cottage to care for the elderly.
But in fact, it is nothing to say that the owner of the old village goes back to the cottage to retire, for the sake of safety, it is normal to lead a team of guards to accompany him, but why take away more than half of the guards in the horse house, leaving less than 30 people to guard the huge mansion? !
Moreover, the guards of the Ma family also take care of the family's many properties in the county, and each point is divided, and in the end, there are only a few people who can really take care of the house.
Once there is really any accident, relying on such a few people will not play a role at all.
The worst thing is that there are two little masters in the house. Ma Zhongtai is okay as an adult, and he has the ability to protect himself if something happens, but what about the children?
The subordinates who stayed behind in Uzza were very puzzled by the master's arrangement.
Although the county town has been calm recently, it is not peaceful outside.
I heard that Wumeng Mansion was besieged by rebellious soldiers, and when several deputies who stayed behind in the palace went to the city gate to check the enemy's situation, one of the chief bookkeepers was killed by an arrow from the enemy on the spot, and the people of the whole prefecture and city were panicked and chaotic.
I heard that the Lu family in Shuixi colluded with the rebels, and they almost murdered the An Xuanfu envoy, even so, the An family and the Zhan family were also hit hard, and even the Shuixi camp was attacked by the rebels, and it was impossible to organize an effective counterattack in a short time.
Heard......
The whole southwest was in chaos, and the calm of Uzza was temporary, and many people in the city had already noticed it, and went out of the city with their families, preparing to take refuge in the mountains.
At such an urgent moment, Ma Zhongtai didn't say that he evacuated Usa, and left the two children by his side, which is simply the rhythm of looking for death.
Slowly, people who are not related by blood will be worried, even Anayi outside the city is also worried, but there is a 'ill-intentioned' lobbyist in his ear-
"Anayi, your man is really a good son of the Ma family, for the sake of the family, he is even willing to give up his own flesh and blood,"
Ah Zhuo sat on a high tree branch, gesturing a knife in his hand, but his mouth mocked: "But it is understandable, the child can be reborn after death, but it is difficult to win it back if he loses the weight of his father and clan elders." β
Anayi's teeth creaked, and she couldn't help but reach into the placket, where there was a box where her carefully raised 'baby' was hidden...... (To be continued.) )
