After coming out of Dai Xian's outer house and getting into the carriage, Jia Cong looked at Wu Xiaoxi with his eyes and said, "Suddenly mentioned what his outer room was for." Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info”
Wu Xiaoxi smiled: "No one knows many things because no one investigates." Dai Xian has five sons, two of the eldest are having an affair with this spring lady, and the two younger ones are newly added by him after he has made a fortune in recent years, which is extremely small; The third child is raised in the outer room, I recognize. ”
"You want to help the third child win the property?"
Wu Xiaoxi tilted his head: "That's not it." Among Dai Xian's sons, the third child has a deep grudge against his father. His mother was Mrs. Dai's cousin, and she used some means to almost trap Mrs. Dai to death, and Mrs. Dai never allowed her to enter the gate of Dai's house after she turned over. In order to let the third child recognize his ancestors and return to his ancestors, his mother endured a lot of hardships, and later became a nun, so that the third child recognized a girl who was married to Mrs. Dai as his mother. ”
Jia Congqi said: "Dai Xian's net worth is mediocre, why is his backyard messy, as for it." ”
"What's so strange about that? The rich landlord in the countryside is also a big family in the village, and I don't know how many families want to send their daughters to be aunts and grandmothers. Although Dai Xian is from a small county, his family is the largest family in that county. The backyard of each house is a nest of black-eyed chickens. ”
Jia Cong touched his chin: "How is the character of this old three?" ”
Wu Xiaoxi glanced at him: "Do you think it will be bad?" ”
"Not really." Jia Cong said, "My second uncle and two aunts, a hypocrite and a fake Buddha, have raised Jia Baoyu as a glass man with a crystal heart. It's just that this Dai San must have had a hard time in the Dai family. Madame Dai may not have treated him badly in terms of food, clothing, and daily life, and psychological torture was absolutely indispensable - if she was extremely transparent, she would not have raised two sons who stole from their mothers. To be honest, I don't feel much at ease with people who didn't have a good time when they were young, and they are prone to go to extremes. ”
Wu Xiaoxi chuckled and said, "Dai Laosan's temperament is very lively, and he looks like a fool. ”
Jia Cong twitched the corner of his mouth: "It's really not going to be a fool." ”
Wu Xiaoxi nodded and said, "He is very bold. Relying on the appearance of a good birth, the first time I saw me, I dared to be courteous. Let the brothers of the special battalion misunderstand, hit the butt of two guns and pretend to be nothing. can endure, there is a bit of a gambler's wind. Such people are easy to use. As for who the Dai family's property will belong to, what does it matter to us? ”
Jia Cong glanced at her a few more times: "Good looks?" ”
Wu Xiaoxi rolled his eyelids: "Am I someone who has never seen a man?" ”
"Of course not! Shopkeeper Wu has never seen any princely talents over the years. Jia Cong laughed twice, "There is nothing wrong with people with this kind of temperament." Gamblers are most needed in the age of capital. It's just that it's too boring to spend this energy at home, and how good it is to spend it on the heads of Westerners. ”
Wu Xiaoxi said leisurely, "It was this third child who first gave Dai Xian the idea of playing the African slave business. ”
Jia Cong nodded: "With this vision, even if he leaves Dai Xian, he can make it." ”
Wu Xiaoxi sighed lightly: "Dai Xian is not his own person after all. The Dai family and the entire Fujian couldn't find a more suitable person to recruit An, so they had to do it. Dai Xian and the third child of his family are both people who are good at weighing the pros and cons, greedy but not reckless. They are not loyal to the court, and it is good that they are willing to be loyal to interests. ”
Jia Cong touched his chin and said, "Then it's better to send someone of your own to take charge." ”
Wu Xiaoxi said: "Although there are many of us, we are not enough. And the Malay Archipelago. General Lin Xiangye Jia saw that he was about to go on the expedition again. ”
Jia Cong scratched his head: "That's it." You've done him a great favor, would you like to see him? ”
"Nope." Wu Xiaoxi sat upright, "Look at the excitement." ”
The first two days were really lively. Dai Xian casually checked and knew that Nachun Niangzi had slept with his two sons, so he was so angry that he immediately ordered someone to strangle her to death. The two masters of the Dai family rushed in time to save the Spring Lady, and they made a big fuss, and they all took the fault on their heads, saying that they were the Spring Lady who was forced by themselves. Mrs. Dai rushed from the mansion to persuade her, but it was completely useless, and the grandfather and wife were like crazy. In the end, Mrs. Dai forced her son to die and asked her son not to take care of the affairs of Chun Niangzi. The two young masters were like taking drugs, and they were all vying to die for their mother and Chun Niangzi, and the Dai family's courtyard was about to turn into a hornet's nest.
Dai Xian was so angry about this that he shook his sleeves angrily and left, living in another outer room. After resting for only half a day, Governor Huang Wengang sent someone to invite him. Dai Xian then remembered that he had forgotten the big incident that Jia Cong said a few days ago. So he put the fire in the backyard aside for the time being, and hurried to the governor's yamen.
Huang Wengang trusted Dai Xian very much. After Dai Xian's family became rich, he never forgot his status as a subordinate official, and second, he didn't forget to make a fortune with everyone, and never hid his secrets, which was very good to the Huang family. When Dai Xian arrived at the Yamen, he saw that in addition to Huang Wengang and Zheng Chao'er, the chief soldier, were also present, and he immediately understood. Nai stepped forward to greet the two of them, and Huang Wengang asked him to sit down.
Dai Xian didn't sit down, and said to Huang Wengang: "Dare to ask your lord, call the officials to come over today, but for the secret order in Beijing?" ”
Huang Wengang was shocked: "How does Lord Dai know?" ”
Dai Xian smiled bitterly: "Sure enough, it's because of that." Did King Yan order Fujian soldiers and horses to go to Taiwan? ”
Zheng Chao'er said: "There is another way, and the leading general is surnamed Li. Let's just obey that General Lee. It was not King Yan who gave the order, but a saint. ”
Dai Xian pondered for a moment and asked, "Dare to ask the two adults, who recognizes the handwriting of the little sage?" Huang Zheng and the others looked at each other and said, "I don't recognize it." Dai Xiannai said in a low voice, "A few days ago, Jia Cong from the Taiwan government came to see Xia Guan. ”
"What?!" Huang Wengang stood up, "What did he do when he came to see you?" ”
Dai Xian then carefully recounted what Jia Cong said that day, but he never mentioned that Jia Cong asked him to replace the governor of Fujian. Huang Wengang made the words "Ouchi Guard" tremble slightly. At the end, Dai Xian said: "Xia Guan pondered what he meant, as if it was the first two families of the Yan King, and the Empress Dowager and Dai Quan's father-in-law had already let them buy it." ”
Zheng Chao'er was confused: "King Yan and the Empress Dowager are obviously not in a group, why did his subordinates become a group with Dai Quan?" ”
Dai Xian said: "Because of the internal guards in the hands of the Empress Dowager, King Yan can't move her. Look at her selling titles, you know that she is greedy for money. With money to be a middle-aged person, what else can't be done? ”
Huang Wengang stumbled and said: "How do they love it, what do they have to do with the old man!" ”
Dai Xian said: "Jia Cong's intention is to let the adults pretend to be sick and ignore the secret orders of the little saints. Isn't there another General Lee? It's good if it doesn't have anything to do with Fujian. Even if King Yan blames him—" he said, twisting his beard, "what can we do with Fujian?" ”
"No." Zheng Chao'er said, "After all, we are still the soldiers and horses of the imperial court. ”
Dai Xian said: "If that secret decree is really a saint's order, it would be fine. If it's fake, and let us listen to that General Li -- Lord Zheng, you always know what the soldiers and horses in the Taiwan government look like. I can't say that the one surnamed Li will use the Fujian people as shields to block artillery? ”
"This ......" Zheng Chao'er also hesitated. Where did he give up his robe?
Huang Wengang sat and thought for a long time, and muttered: "I can't tell the truth from the secret purpose. ”
Dai Xian said with a smile: "That secret decree can come to Fuzhou to see that it is fake." Come to think of it, where can you really get out of the Forbidden City? ”
Before the words fell, I suddenly heard the roof "dang chang", and a tile fell to the ground. Huang Wengang was busy checking it. After a while, a soldier came to report that there was a big "fake" word on the dust on the roof, as if it had been written by a person's fingers. The three adults were stunned, looked at each other for a long time, although they didn't say anything, they were secretly biased in their hearts that what Jia Cong said was true. Besides, the three of them now have a lot of family businesses, and they don't want Fujian to fight.
A few days later, Huang Wengang was really sick. And he was so sick that no matter how many doctors he hired, he couldn't find out the root cause. At the end, an old doctor quietly said to the young master of the Huang family: "I heard that there are many secret medicines in the palace, which can make people suffer from all kinds of strange diseases. I can't say that those people also have them. Huang Wengang suddenly thought that a large internal guard had drugged him, and he became more and more seriously ill.
When he was ill, Dai Xian got busy. Huang Wengang's ordinary official duties are now mostly done by Dai Xian on his behalf. He is busy with official business, and the Dai family has a lot of private affairs, where is he busy? It is reasonable to say that these private affairs should be managed by the two young masters Dai, but Dai Xian hates that the two of them fornicated with his love Ji and still does not repent, and dares to fight Lao Tzu with death, plus his third son is extremely filial and obedient, so he lost all the family's business and property to the third child. Dai Sanye was sincerely afraid, and refused to make his own decisions in case of trouble, most of them consulted Dai Xian's henchmen and asked them, "If my father is here, what will he do?" "And according to Dai Xian's rules and habits. Dai Xian was very satisfied when he learned about it, and praised him for a long time. When the people below heard this, they firmly believed that the third master was now favored.
In the past few days, in addition to listening to the news given from everywhere, Jia Cong has been wandering around the streets for fun, thinking about whether there is a way not to alarm the large area of the prince in the north, and he can also take down the whole of Fujian. When I returned to the shop of Red Bone Ji on this day, a guy hurriedly greeted him and said in a low voice: "Third master, the shopkeeper Wu asked you to come back and go over." ”
Jia Cong nodded and asked casually, "Is there something wrong?" ”
The man said, "A lady who refused to say her surname came to her, and she only wrote a sign and went in, and she saw her." Jia Cong frowned and walked in with his arms behind his back.
This is the shop of the Red Bone Record in Fuzhou, and there are many houses in the back, and Jia Cong walked for a long time before he walked to the place where Wu Xiaoxi talked to people. Seeing a few special battalion soldiers guarding the door, he coughed twice. I heard Wu Xiaoxi say inside: "The third master is here, please come in." ”
Jia Cong opened the curtain and saw that there was a wealthy woman sitting in the guest seat in the room, less than fifty years old, with the posture of an official's wife, so she asked with a smile: "Since you are the wife of the official family, why did you let me in?" ”
The woman had already stood up and made a blessing, and Jia Cong hurriedly returned the salute: "The juniors don't dare." ”
Wu Xiaoxi blinked and said, "This is Lord Dai Xian's wife." ”
Jia Cong glanced at her with his eyes and said, "It turned out to be Mrs. Dai." ”
Wu Xiaoxi smiled bitterly: "Mrs. Dai is here to ask about the guilt. ”
Mrs. Dai hurriedly said: "Shopkeeper Wu, I have no such intention. I just wanted to inquire about what the shopkeeper Wu said to our master that day. ”
Wu Xiaoxi looked at Jia Cong and said, "I told her that I was just a pretense, and that Mr. Jia borrowed my carriage to see Master Dai." ”
Jia Cong said: "That's true. Because of some reasons, it was inconvenient for him to visit the house in his later years, so he annoyed that the shopkeeper Wu helped him. The matter discussed by Lord Dai in the later years is really a very important matter of the imperial court, and it is understandable if Lord Dai refuses to tell his wife. ”
Mrs. Dai was frightened by the words "major events in the court", and was stunned for a long time before saying, "What's the matter...... Our lord went to check that powder? ”
Wu Xiaoxi let out an "oh": "That fan! I reminded you. Mr. Jia said several times, and the two of them discussed a great matter. I looked at the powder and saw that my mind was not right, I was afraid that something was wrong. He apologized again, "I really don't know ......."
Mrs. Dai suddenly said: "It turned out to be because of this ......" She immediately understood that her son was pulling out the radish and bringing out the mud, and after thinking for a while, she immediately asked, "Could it be that the powder head is sent by someone's family?" ”
Wu Xiaoxi and Jia Cong were both at a loss: "I don't know!" Jia Cong also said, "Fujian is the territory of Master Dai, and he will find out." Well, I can't say that he doesn't have time to check these days. ”
Mrs. Dai couldn't help but stand up: "If that powder is a fine work, will she deliberately provoke our master to discord with my two sons?" ”
Wu Xiaoxi nodded and said, "It's very likely." ”
Mrs. Dai immediately said: "If our master doesn't have time to check, can someone else check?" ”
Jia Cong spread his hands and said: "Now that the governor Huang Wengang is seriously ill, he doesn't trust others except Lord Dai, so Lord Dai has to help Lord Huang deal with daily official business." We're also in a hurry, and there's nothing we can do -- I'm afraid that the powder is fine, and it won't be easy to do if we overhear something. He thought about it for a while, and then made a gesture to Mrs. Dai, "I'm afraid that Lord Dai won't have time to take care of that spring lady these days." Please ask Mrs. Dai to let someone take care of her, and don't let people save her, or silence her, or talk to her. ”
Mrs. Dai was just hoping that Chun Niangzi would work carefully so that her son could break free, but when she heard this, as if Mr. Jia was very sure that the fan was a spy, she hurriedly said: "I'll try her when I go back!" ”
Jia Cong said: "You just have to keep her behind." I heard that the two masters of the Dai family made her stunned, and Mrs. Dai must not torture her. If she were not a spy, she would not be able to bear a heavy punishment, and if she died at your hands, your two sons would have a pimple with you in the rest of their lives; If she is a spy, with all due respect, the spies are all trained, and even if a layman like you kills her, Mrs. Dai, she will not tell the truth, and she will definitely try to get you into misunderstanding with your son - once this misunderstanding arises, it will really be a lifetime. ”
Mrs. Dai is always a back-house woman, and it is not easy to guess that there is something about Wu Xiaoxi here, and it is not easy to dare to come to her to inquire. Hearing this, his face turned white with fright, and he said after a while: "How is it good!" ”
Jia Cong said: "I have to support her with good water and food, and keep it for the next day for retrial." ”
Mrs. Dai stumbled and said, "I can't wait!" The woman's son is now favored! After thinking for a moment, he bowed down to Jia Cong and said, "There is a maid next to me who is the most clever, I wonder if Mr. Jia can ask someone to teach her?" ”
Jia Cong and Wu Xiaoxi glanced at each other and said, "Maid? Isn't it smart? Or please come and see me. ”
Mrs. Dai hurriedly shouted: "Fennel-"
After a while, a woman walked in through the curtain. Jia Cong took a look, this fennel was almost thirty years old, and she was still dressed as a maid. A pair of eyes are shining, and he is a smart person.
