63. Fool
"Why can't it? What happened to Lao Tzu when he met his daughter-in-law? King Pingnan was so angry that he blew his beard and glared, slapped it on the table with a snap, and snorted angrily, "If it weren't for Lao Tzu, do you think you would be able to marry that little girl?" Sue you, people don't look down on you at allβ"
"If she doesn't like me, she won't do this family business!" Wei Wei replied to King Pingnan angrily with a tense face, unconsciously remembering the situation when Lu Wan's slender and soft fingers brushed his cheeks, her eyes were full of tenderness and tenderness, which made people's hearts sway uncontrollably, he liked her to look at her like that......
King Pingnan shook his beard and snorted, glanced at his son, who was a little unusual in disgust, and kicked over: "Stop, you get out of here!" I'm impatient to see you! β
Wei Ji didn't hide, let King Pingnan kick him, stood up and walked out with a hum, ignoring King Pingnan's sullen scolding.
Out of the study, Chen Qing followed quietly, and replied in a low voice: "Master, there is movement at the other end of the mountain." β
"Who are they?" Wei Ji paused, frowned and asked, "Have you ever returned to the girl about this?" β
Hearing this, Chen Qing hurriedly bowed down and smiled: "If you go back to your master, Chen Ping on the girl's side has already gone back." There were a few fools, all of them were from the Zhou family, and the girl meant that the box was not a valuable thing anyway, and if you lose it, you will lose it, so don't bother with it. β
Wei Jian snorted, and while raising his feet and walking out, he commanded without looking back: "Just listen to your girl." β
Chen Qing hurriedly agreed, quietly followed the guard out of the palace gate, raised his hand and made a gesture, and asked the people who followed him to hurry up and send a message to Chen Ping.
When Lu Wan received the news, it was already dark, Chen Ping stood outside the house respectfully, whispered what Chen Qing asked people to bring, and only then did he look at Lu Wan's expression and smiled: "That box has been sent to the main mansion at this time, girl, do you want to put another box again?" β
"That's a good idea!" Lu Wan glanced at Chen Ping appreciatively, nodded and smiled, "Anyway, we have a lot of empty boxes, and it's not worth much, whoever wants to take it away is, let's not worry about them!" After speaking, he smiled and called Zhou Tai in, and pointed at Chen Ping and instructed, "Didn't Zheng Xinghe send a new box of poisonous insects and poisonous herbs in?" You and Chen Ping take a look, pick a few good ones and put a few more boxes, let's be generous, put a few more, and let them choose! β
Zhou Tai frowned and looked at Lu Wan, who was smiling brightly, and then looked at Chen Ping, who was obviously coaxing, and hummed a little helplessly, and glanced at Chen Ping, and the two exited the courtyard gate, Zhou Tai couldn't help but ask: "You are also like this in front of your prince?" This girl likes to toss, why are you messing around with her? β
Halfway through the words, Zhou Tai wrinkled his brows and took a breath, and looked at Chen Ping with disapproval: "This girl is messing around, why is your prince also coming from her?" What's going on...... No matter how confused I am, I know that the status of those who come to get the box is not low! You directly poisoned others, and when the time comes, the court will be in chaos, how will it end? β
"Ouch, hey, Brother Zhou!" Chen Ping frowned and bowed his hand to Zhou Tai, and explained half-truths while smiling, "I'll call you brother, okay?" I haven't seen you talk so much in the past, but today you're pulling me to complain? You are a straight person, and I won't turn a corner with you about our brother's temperament. I said something that shouldn't have been said, no wonder the girl said you that day, you said about you...... Let people say what is good? Who are our lord and girl? What we can all think of, is it possible that the master and the girl still don't know? The girl and the master must have planned it a long time ago. Besides, there is still the prince and Lord Lu pressing on this matter, they didn't say anything, what are we worrying about here? β
Chen Ping said, spreading his hands a little scoundrelly and said: "That box is not forced by our master and girl to others, they have to steal it from other people's yards, and it is no wonder that others are calculated!" If you want me to say, the girl's method is already mild, and if you change our master, you will serve his nest in a pot earlier! β
"Forget it, I can't talk about you!" Zhou Tai exhaled depressedly and raised his hand to interrupt Chen Ping's words, "Let's go, I'll get you something!" β
Chen Ping hurriedly smiled and thanked him, followed behind Zhou Tai, went to Zhou Tai's house and took a box of Gu worm poisonous herbs sent in by Zheng Xinghe, rummaged through and picked up a few bottles that looked good, and asked for a few almost identical rosewood boxes from Yumo, closed the doors and windows, covered his face, scattered a few bottles of poisonous weed powder in several boxes, and still put another layer of box, and handed over the rest of the people to wrap it in a cloth and quietly put it in the courtyard at the foot of Kaiyuan Temple.
******
In the study outside the Chongning Marquis's Mansion, Zhou Guangye stared at the box brought back by several guards, raised his hand and waved away the people in the courtyard, took a breath, and personally opened the package, the lock on the box seemed to be rusty, and it was opened with a slight twist.
Zhou Guangye opened the lid suspiciously, glanced inside, and there was an iron box, his movements paused, a layer of fine sweat appeared in his palms, he calmed down, and carefully reached out to take out the iron box, which was still unexpectedly relaxed, and it took no effort to open it easily.
It's a pity that the originally excited mind was stunned when he saw the situation in the empty box.
Fake!
Zhou Guangye exhaled, slapped the box in anger, the originally empty box was shaken, and the rusty iron box fell directly on the back of Zhou Guangye's hand.
"Rubbish!" Zhou Guangye opened the box with his backhand, his face turned red, he stood up suddenly, kicked the chair away, and called someone in angrily.
Early the next morning, a sharp cry suddenly broke out in the west courtyard of the Chongning Hou Mansion, and Mrs. Wen ran out of the inner room in disheveled clothes, pulling the clothes on her body like crazy, her face was bloodshot, and the girls in the room saw this step coldly. Suddenly shocked, I originally wanted to go forward, but when I saw Mrs. Wen's appearance, I was suddenly frightened, and instinctively spread back.
Two bold mothers-in-law hesitated and stepped forward to pull Mrs. Wen by the hand, and glanced at the inner room in fear. At this sight, there were two more screams, and his legs were weak with fright, and he sat on the ground with his buttocks, pointed to the inner room in horror, and opened his mouth with wide eyes, but he was so frightened that he couldn't make a sound.
In the early days of the same day, the news that Zhou Guangye, the Marquis of Chongning, was bedridden with maggots spread all over the government and the opposition, and rumors about his tragic situation also spread quickly throughout the capital, and all kinds of rumors about Zhou Guangye's retribution quickly swept the streets and alleys, and became more and more outrageous among the people, and even the words of the Bodhisattva's manifestation were transmitted in several versions.
As soon as he got out of the early dynasty, the four princes entered the Chengqian Hall with a frown.
Feng Ying stopped the fourth prince and lowered his voice to persuade: "Fourth master, you better go back first......
The fourth prince politely thanked Feng Ying, but did not leave, and waited outside the Chengqian Hall with his mouth pursed, with a little stubbornness.
Feng Ying sighed inaudibly when he saw this, so he had to enter the hall, carefully replied to Emperor Yuanfeng, and soon took the little chamberlain out to invite the four princes into the palace.
In the Chengqian Palace, the second prince was waiting at the desk with a cup of tea, and when he caught a glimpse of the four princes, Fang raised his head and shook his head at the four princes quietly.
The fourth prince nodded, stepped forward and knelt in front of Emperor Yuanfeng: "Son to father-"
Before the words fell, a teacup was smashed coldly, and the head of the four princes flew by, and fell to the ground with a bang, and the tea and tea splashed the four princes, and they couldn't even avoid it on their faces.
The voice of the fourth prince froze, and the wolf knelt on the ground, but with a stubbornness on his face, he kowtowed heavily to the ground, and pleaded guilty without changing his face: "Holy Calm Anger!" The retainers knew that they were guilty, and they didn't dare to argue strongly, and the saints wanted to beat and punish, and the retainers didn't dare to complain. β
As soon as he finished speaking, he was smashed with a pile of folds on his head and face, and a red mark appeared on his forehead instantly, and the four princes did not say a word, kneeling straight, and let Emperor Yuanfeng angrily smash the folds all over the ground.
The second prince looked at Emperor Yuanfeng's face, hurriedly handed over the tea, and couldn't help but persuade: "Father is angry, and the fourth brother ......is young."
"You're about to start a family, and you're still young?" Emperor Yuanfeng paused the teacup on the table with a gloomy face, and nodded angrily at the four princes, "The things of the Shen family are also something you can move?" I didn't dare to claim to be capable in front of the old man of the Shen family back then, do you think you can still compete with the old man of the Shen family? Zhou Guangye can't figure it out, and you can't figure it out either? You are as easy to fool as the people of the Lu family and the people of the Shen family? Or do you think I'm blind? β
The fourth prince knelt on the ground motionlessly, kowtowed heavily again, and pleaded guilty one by one: "Back to the saint, the minister does not dare to hide this matter." Zhou Guangye did mention to Erchen that he wanted to take the Shen family's things before, although Erchen felt that it was inappropriate, and he also reprimanded him at that time, but he failed to stop Zhou Guangye in time, which was indeed Erchen's fault. β
Emperor Yuanfeng frowned and glared at the four princes, and Ling Sheng reprimanded: "Do you still know that you have one? How did I teach you in the first place? Yes? I tell you, you are not as good as that little girl of the Lu family! β
The fourth prince moved his brows, let Emperor Yuanfeng scold, and knelt in the hall with a stubborn face, although he did not respond to Emperor Yuanfeng's words, but his face was a little unconvinced.
"Don't shake your face with me!" Emperor Yuanfeng was so angry that he raised his hand and smashed another cup, stood up, stared at the four princes with a gloomy face, and said angrily, "If you are not convinced, you have to endure it!" I don't have a useless son like you! Get out! β
"Yes, the retainers are retired!" The four princes kowtowed to Emperor Yuanfeng without saying a word, stood up, and retreated in silence, their backs straight.
The second prince opened his mouth, frowned at the back of the fourth prince, paid attention to Emperor Yuanfeng's face, and hesitated to persuade: "Father-"
Emperor Yuanfeng raised his hand with a cold face and interrupted the words of the second prince: "You also go out, let me be quiet and quiet!" β
The second prince hurriedly collected his voice, responded obediently, bowed and withdrew, went out of the palace gate, and called the fourth prince who was walking outside the palace from a distance.
The fourth prince's face was tense, obviously a little unconvinced, and he shouted "Second Brother" in a cold voice.
"You said you ......" The second prince shook his head and sighed, and persuaded a little helplessly, "What are you angry with your father?" Zhou Guangye's illness came strangely, and it was no wonder that his father was suspicious. The old man of the Shen family has always been a taboo for his father all these years, what kind of character Zhou Guangye is, don't you know yet? Since he told you about it, you should have let people stare at him in the first place! Now it's a good thing that he made a mistake and let you bear this trouble! β
"Don't dare to bother with the second brother!" The fourth prince replied to the second prince straightly, his tone was not very polite, and he arched his hand towards the second prince, no matter how the second prince reacted, he raised his feet and walked outside the palace.
The second prince frowned and looked at the back of the fourth prince, until the fourth prince turned the gate and disappeared, the second prince let go of his brows, raised his eyebrows, and walked out of the palace gate unhurriedly.
