Chapter 116: The Gift (3)
This is 'his' daughter, she really has momentum!
Master Miaozhen's eyebrows and eyes were stretched, and there was a burst of joy from the inside out. Pen | fun | pavilion www. ο½ο½ο½ο½ο½ο½ γ ο½ο½ο½ο½
The people sent by Gu Jialuo were also obedient, and they specially picked good things to say.
The so-called 'good words' are to praise Gu Jialuo's words to death, uh, well, although it is somewhat embarrassing to have people praise himself, but the master likes to listen to it.
Moreover, Gu Jialuo didn't let people lie, but only slightly beautified the original facts. Future generations still need to beautify their faces when taking selfies, she sends news to the elders in the family, naturally it is good news but not bad news, how to say the same thing!
That's right, my own parents! Gu Jialuo did not express his position clearly, but in all matters of Master Miaozhen, he was in accordance with the standards for treating the Song family.
There are some things that Gu Jialuo can't talk to his stepmother, but will talk to Master Miaozhen.
She no longer wondered why Master Miao Zhen was so kind to her, and now she thought that since she had received the favor of the master, she should repay it with all her might.
It's just that the master doesn't lack anything, but he likes Gu Jialuo, and it's the kind of pure and unadded like, so Gu Jialuo can only return with true feelings - from the bottom of his heart, he respects and is filial to Master Miaozhen as a close elder!
Therefore, in the subsequent letter, Gu Jialuo reported his recent situation in detail to Miaozhen in a slightly coquettish tone, and told some Wumeng customs and rural anecdotes.
Like all the younger generations who have left home, the content of the letter is trivial but full of warmth, so that the concerned elders can't help but smile when they read it, and their minds continue to appear happy or stupid.
However, in the last section of the letter, Gu Jialuo's words changed, from a coquettish little daughter to a female man who cared about the elders in the family and feared that her old people would be deceived.
ββ¦β¦ I heard that there is a kind of pill popular in the elite circle in Beijing, saying that it can refresh the mind and curb the pain, but I don't know if the pill can pass the test of the Tai Hospital? Master, you have a precious status, and without the recommendation of the Imperial Doctor, don't listen to the rumors in the market and try the medicine...... It's a medicine that is three points poisonous, especially the effect of the medicine is so magical, it's scary to listen to, don't follow the trend......"
The words are so straightforward that they are almost rude, but between the lines they are full of concern for Master Miaozhen.
Well, although there is a suspicion of treating Miao Zhen as an 'old fool', lest this 'old man' can't stand the fools of others and do foolish things, but the starting point is good.
At least Master Miaozhen read this passage and ironed in his heart: If you are not a close relative, you will never be able to tell such a heart-to-heart truth. The little girl feels sorry for her elder!
Miao Zhen actually read and read the letter repeatedly, and her rounded nails actually pinched shallow marks on the letterhead, especially this passage, which made her taste it again and again.
Good boy, really a good boy.
It's not the first time that Master Miaozhen has spoiled a girl like this, but whether it's Lin or Tao Qi, they will be cute or even stupid in front of her, but they are always controlled within a delicate range.
Even the most arrogant Tao Qi, showing off his martial arts outside, all kinds of coquettish and naΓ―ve in Jingyue Nunnery, on the surface he respects and admires Miaozhen, but there is always a trace of unnaturalness in his words and deeds.
What kind of person is Miaozhen, who grew up in the treacherous court since he was a child, I don't know how much he has experienced in the wind and waves, and he is surrounded by either a thousand-year-old fox or a thousand-year-old demon, and his ability to see people is absolutely first-class.
Tao Qi's idea was unnatural, and she had naturally been in her eyes for a long time.
At that time, Miao Zhen thought that Tao Qi was the 'prince', so he took the initiative to help the child find a reason: alas, in the end, he was raised in a small family, and he lacked confidence. And the two of them are not rightly named, she is so good to the child, the child will naturally be apprehensive and flattered. Even after a long time, the child feels her sincerity and does not dare to let go completely.
But when Miao Zhen was sure that Tao Qi was just a 'tanuki', and there was a genuine product next to him as a control group, he had another thought: Tsk, it's really bloodline nature, look at my family Luo, without knowing the truth, can still treat me like this, and it is so natural, it is obvious that it is not deliberately flattering, nor is it a play, but an instinctive expression of true feelings!
β¦β¦ Miao Zhen is definitely a short-term and eccentric person, to put it mildly, he is the kind of confused elder who can raise a good child into a bear child. She looks at Gu Jialuo well, that is, she is good everywhere, even if Gu Jialuo is disrespectful to her, she will feel that the child is 'loyal to her ears'.
Not to mention that Gu Jialuo was sincerely thinking about Miaozhen, Miaozhen clearly felt between the lines of Gu Jialuo's letter that she cared about herself.
That's enough!
With Gu Jialuo's words, even if the kind of 'Xiaoyao Pill' that is popular outside is an elixir, Miaozhen will never touch a finger.
She even specially summoned her personal shadow guard, "Go and check, what's going on with that 'Xiaoyao Pill'?" Also, I heard that the pharmacy also implemented a kind of smoking gun, and the smoking paste is also special, and the smokers say that the tobacco paste tastes very good, and it is more refreshing and enjoyable than the tobacco leaves that prevailed in the first few years?! β
Originally, Miao Zhen didn't care about these trivial things, but since her baby Ah Luo mentioned it, then she should also pay attention to it.
If Ah Luo mentions this matter in her heart next time, but she doesn't know how to answer the stubble, wouldn't that make the child sad?!
Miao Zhen would never do anything to disappoint her baby, even the most inconspicuous of things.
But then, Miao Zhen discovered that this matter is really not an 'inconspicuous little thing'.
"This is a gift from Ah Qi?"
A maid in front of Miaozhen was holding a red sandalwood box in both hands, and the box had been opened, and it was a whole fine smoking gun. The red sandalwood inlaid with jade mouth smoking guns, copper lamps, small scissors, tweezers, spoons and other small objects are very complete.
The most intimate thing is that there is even a box of ointment included in the box.
Basically, as long as Miao Zhen wants to, she can immediately lie down and give it a try.
"So that the master knows that this thing is the most popular 'fairy ointment' nowadays, and it has the same miraculous effect as the 'Xiaoyao Pill'.
The few riders who were shouting at the Qi family's guards on the mountain road were all kneeling respectfully at the foot of the hall at this moment, and it was the older man who replied.
Judging by his appearance, he should be the leader of these people.
I only heard him say with a little boast: "This thing is very magical, once it was launched, it was loved by many powerful people, but unfortunately the quantity of cigarette paste is limited, and the shop only sells a hundred boxes a day...... Now such a small box of cigarette paste has already been speculated on the market at a sky-high price, and Miss easily grabbed such a box-"
As he spoke, the man raised his head and said eagerly, "Master, do you want to give it a try?" My subordinates were fortunate enough to taste it once, and it was really wonderful, and when I smoked it, I had a wonderful feeling of fluttering immortals. And after sucking, my spirit is very good, and some of the external injuries on my body are not so painful! β
At the mention of the 'Immortal Ointment', the man's face glowed with a strange red light, and he even forgot his awe of his master for a while, and said his feelings dreamily.
If this person had said this an hour earlier, maybe Miao Zhen would have been curious to try it.
He said that it was too late, and with Gu Jialuo's letter, Miao Zhen had already drawn a big cross in his heart for pills and cigarette paste of unknown origin such as 'Immortal Cream' and 'Xiaoyao Pill'.
Preconceived, Miao Zhen believed in Gu Jialuo, and naturally regarded those pills as flood beasts.
At this time, seeing that his former subordinates were so fanatically recommending what 'fairy paste', Miaozhen felt more and more that something was wrong. After years of palace fighting, she immediately opened her mind, and all kinds of conspiracy theories were staged in her mind instantly.
She even suspected Tao Qi: A Luo said that those pills that were not approved by the Tai Hospital could not be tried easily, but Tao Qi just gave a set of smoking guns and cigarette paste as New Year's gifts, she, even if she didn't mean to hurt people, she didn't take her Xiao Yu to heart.
Pills of unknown origin, just with the nonsense of a few black-hearted businessmen, Tao Qi dared to send them to her Jingyue Nunnery, what kind of heart did she have?!
Check, this matter must be investigated!
Miaozhen quietly accepted the gift box, Wen Yan explained to the riders, and waved them out.
As soon as the figures of several people disappeared, the light smile on Miaozhen's face faded, and he beckoned to the shadow guard again: "Go, check what Tao Qi has done recently?" There are also Ah Da, Ah Er, Ah San, what is abnormal in the recent period! β
Ah Da, that is, the leader of the riders who spoke just now, several of their riders, like Xiao Thirteen, all used numbers such as one, two, and three to replace the number.
However, Ah Da's level is very low, far from being comparable to a first-level shadow guard like Xiao Shisan. Not to mention anything else, Ah Da and the others don't even have a surname, but Xiao Thirteen and the others were given the surname 'Xiao' by Miaozhen.
Obviously, Ah Da's 'dreamy' intoxicated appearance really made Miao Zhen frightened, so she not only doubted Tao Qi, but also distrusted several former subordinates.
Miao Zhen's shadow guards (mainly first-class shadow guards such as Xiao Yi and Xiao Er) are really not covered, and less than half a month after the order was issued, a similar report was put on Miao Zhen's desk.
Miao Zhen looked at it quietly, her expression didn't seem to change, but the chill in her eyes became heavier.
Boom!
After reading it carefully, Miao Zhen slapped a stack of manuscript paper on the table: "Okay, good Qi Yao, good He, and Tao Qi, you are really good, and you actually put your hand on my Ah Luo!" β
The words are bitten very hard, and the tone is becoming more and more calm.
It's been almost twenty years, except for the 'showdown' with the saint in the palace a few months ago, Miao Zhen is out of anger for the first time!
She pursed the corners of her lips, took a few deep breaths, grabbed the report again, and read it word by word several times to make sure that she had not read it wrong, or understood it wrongly, and then she raised her voice and shouted:
"What about people? Where did they all die? Straight mother, everyone is bullied to the door, if the old lady doesn't say anything, the world will forget my Xiao aunt? ! β
Don't look at Miao Zhen who has been a layman for more than ten years, she looks detached, noble and cold in front of people, but in fact she is a hot-tempered master.
When I was young, I once had a fight with the emperor's favorite concubine, and tearing the princess or something was even more commonplace, and even in front of today's saints, she said that if she scolded, she would scold people, and the one who was scolded (that is, Xiao Ye's children's shoes) had to make amends with a shy face and make her happy.
Such a person who has been wanton for most of his life is really not a gentle, elegant, loving and generous woman.
If she really starts a fire, even the queen mother and the emperor, the supreme mother and son, will have to back down by three points, and they don't dare to fight her hard.
No, Miao Zhen's words hadn't fallen yet, and a few black shadows flashed in quickly from the outside, kneeling on the ground.
"Master!" More than a dozen people breathed smoothly and saluted neatly.
"Xiao San, Xiao Liu, Xiao Eleven, the three of you go and keep an eye on Tao Qi and that bullshit Jimin Hall for me. Never let go of any disturbances. Miao Zhen's face sank like water, and when he really arranged an errand, he calmed down.
"Yes!" The three of them knelt on the ground and clenched their fists in response.
"Xiao Er, Xiao Jiu, Xiao Eighteen, Xiao Twenty-one, each of you will lead ten people and rush to the southwest immediately, I want to know clearly the every move of He Banxia and Qi Gu!"
"Yes!" The four of them responded in unison.
"Xiao Si, laughing seven ......"
Miao Zhen assigned the errands one by one in an orderly manner, and after a short time, more than a dozen people each took the errand and rushed out.
Miaozhen didn't stop there, she took a sip of tea, calmed the anger in her chest a little, and then called the steward of Jingyuean.
"At the beginning of spring next year, I will shovel all the flowers on the other side of the back mountain, and I want to plant new flowers."
The steward's eyes were full of question marks, but he kept his duty and did not dare to speak falsely, but only obediently should.
However, she still asked very dutifully, "I wonder what flowers you want to plant instead?" The slave and maid should prepare the craftsman who is skilled in planting and this way. β
Miao Zhen tugged at the corners of her mouth, "Yinghuahua, I want to plant Yinghua in the back mountain!" β
Straight mother, didn't those sluts want to splash dirty water on Ah Luo's head and take advantage of the chaos to fish in the water, then she will muddy the water in the capital first, so that those people will not be able to fish but be flooded.
Miao Zhen narrowed her eyes, Tao Qi and others gave her a big gift, and she should also prepare a rich gift for others.
β¦β¦
In the Forbidden Palace in the capital not far away, there were also people holding a big gift and hesitantly touching the East Palace.
"What? The ninth princess wants to see Lonely? Are you sure she's not here to greet the crown princess? β
The prince was handling government affairs in the study, and when he listened to the reply of the chamberlain, his face was full of surprise.
"So that the crown prince knows that the ninth princess said that in the recent New Year's Festival, she specially prepared a gift and wanted to give it to you personally!" The chamberlain cautiously replied.
The prince frowned, this Xiao Jiu, not to mention taking good care of Concubine Liu Xian in the palace, what did Baba do when he ran to his East Palace?
The prince didn't believe in any excuses such as 'gift-giving', and the ninth princess must have come to ask for something.
Inexplicably, a bad premonition swelled up in the prince's heart......
PS: The Ninth Princess hasn't seen her for a long time, it's time for her to come out and sell a stupid, hehe~ (To be continued.) )
