It is said that on this day, Jia Cong was discussing with someone in the Hanlin Courtyard how to invite Mr., and a servant of the Su family rushed over: "Third Master Cong, the master asked you to go quickly." Pen %Fun %Pavilion www.biquge.info"
Jia Cong knew in his heart that it was his fiancΓ©e who messed up Su Cheng's marriage, but he didn't know what she did, so he hurriedly explained a few words to his colleagues, and asked one wall to clean up things and the other to ask, "What's wrong?" β
The servant stumbled and said, "Third Master Cong will know when he goes." β
So he rushed to Su's house. When I arrived at the gate, I saw that the neck of the door was stretched! Seeing Jia Cong coming from afar, he shouted: "Third Master Cong is hereβ"
Jia Cong jumped off the horse, threw the reins to Menzi and asked, "But where is the gentleman's body uncomfortable?" β
Menzi said with a bitter face: "No. The third master knew when he saw the master. β
Jia Cong hurried inside, and was about to turn from the front yard to Su Zheng's study, when he went to the Hanlin Courtyard to call his servant: "Third master! Our lord is in the hall. β
"Hall? Are there any guests? β
ββ¦β¦ There was ......"
Walking into the hall, I saw Su Zheng sitting on the main seat, and a white-bearded old man and a middle-aged literati sitting in the guest seat; Su Zheng's face was long. Jia Cong stepped forward and saluted: "Sir! β
Su Zheng let out an "um" and pointed to the two opposite: "This is Lord Song of Taichang Temple and Master Song of the Song family." β
Jia Cong hurriedly said: "I have seen two gentlemen at the end of the school. The two of them hurriedly shouted at him, "No need to be polite." Jia Cong looked at the three of them, "The faces of several of them are not very good, could it be that something went wrong with Cheng'er's relatives?" Su Zheng snorted heavily.
It turned out that two months ago, Song Erye recognized a little scholar at the literary meeting. The scholar is quick and well-born, and the appearance of the second master of the Song Dynasty is also rare; Both of them are gentle and delicate, and they secretly have a sense of confidant with each other. The literary meeting dispersed, and the scholar walked very fast, and Song Erye never got his name to live, which was a deep regret. A few days later, Song Erye was ordered by his mother to go to Qingxuguan to repay his wishes, and it happened that the scholar also went to hang out, and met again. This time, the scholar somehow fell down the steps and broke his foot, and Song Erye helped him to the medical hall, and the two of them recognized it. Later, the scholar invited him to eat wine as a thank you, and when he was drunk, he also held a big wine jar and sprinkled wine. Second Master Song is a fine person, and when he saw that this "virtuous brother" was a woman, he hurriedly found an excuse to slip away. Then he didn't see her again, and the woman didn't bother her anymore. I don't want the woman's family to come to the door in the past few days, saying that Song Erye hooked up with their girl, and there were two skin-to-skin blind dates, and they wanted Song Erye to marry her. The Song family was unwilling; They also said that the girl had lovesickness and lingered on the sickbed, and it could not be treated unless Song Erye did.
Jia Cong sneered: "What a thick skin! How old is he? His daughter pretended to be a man and played tricks, how did the virtuous nephew know? Didn't you just notice it and cut off contact? Calculated from the beginning, there is nothing where the virtuous nephew and son-in-law are not half a point. Lord Song, don't pay attention to them. I see who dares to rob Cheng'er's man! After another look, the three of them were still calm and silent, and asked silently for a moment, "Who is she?" β
The father and son of the Song family looked at each other for a long time, and Master Song said in a low voice: "Yes...... King Yan. β
Jia Cong was stunned and opened his mouth wide: "Huh? Who is it? β
Old Master Song sighed: "That woman is the third daughter of King Yan, and she is a county lord......"
Jia Cong secretly exclaimed for Chen Ruijin. The truth is that apart from their family, there is really no one in the Yan Kingdom who can rob Su Cheng's husband! Nai pondered: "Don't be afraid, King Yan is the master, not an unreasonable person." β
Master Song sighed: "The three county lords didn't pester my son, and they only met three times from beginning to end...... It's just that...... It's just that now ......"
Jia Cong squinted at him for a long time, and then answered for him: "It's just that I have lovesickness." Without waiting for his father and son to answer, he turned his head to Su Zheng and said loudly, "Sir, it's so dangerous!" It's a shame that Cheng'er hasn't married yet. Even if you occupy the world, you can't compete with people who have lovesickness, right? An ordinary woman who mistakenly falls in love with someone else's fiancΓ© can only die of lovesickness, but the daughter of the heavenly family naturally cannot. Jia Cong took the case, "That's it, get out of the marriage." β
Su Zheng was anxious: "How can I withdraw from the marriage?" The day is coming! β
Jia Cong sneered: "It's better to get married than to divorce, it's better than a flat wife, and it's better to be a concubine." Marriage, after all, is a deal for my father. Mr. is willing to accept that grievance? I can't bear it! Su Zheng was about to speak, but Jia Cong made a look, "Sir, listen to the disciple, get out of the marriage." Hurry up and return the dowry, Cheng'er will not worry about getting married. Su Zheng looked at him for a long time and sighed.
After sending away the people of the Song family, Jia Cong invited Su Zheng to the study, and said: "Song Xiaoer's appearance is really good, and it is dazzling in front of Jia Baoyu, it is too easy for the girl's family to forget." Fourteen or fifteen-year-old girls are in love for the first time, and once they fall in love, it is not so easy to figure it out. This county lord is very good to come to Japan, and the husband is fine; But if there is a disappointment, after saying that they can't get married, they will miss Song Xiaoer, and there will be endless troubles. The three county lords have brothers, and Cheng'er may cause something if he is implicated. As the saying goes, if you are not afraid of thieves stealing, you are afraid of thieves. I can use Cheng'er as a raft and come up with a dozen tricks to deal with the county lord's brother. If there is a case, it may not be compensated afterwards. Besides, since the Song family has come to the door, isn't the meaning obvious? forced Cheng'er to marry her, her mother-in-law always felt that Cheng'er had blocked the road of their family's royal relatives and relatives, could she not be wronged? Don't worry, Cheng'er will be the most worry-free girl in the country. It is not necessarily a good thing for Nafu to marry the daughter of the heavenly family. β
Where can Su Zheng not know? It's just that it happened suddenly, and I vaguely hope that this arrogant disciple can make a fool of himself. After a long time, the old man sighed, "What is this......"
Jia Cong said: "It's good to just think it's eight characters and don't vote." β
The old man was in a panic, and Jia Cong tried his best to coax him. Jia Cong obviously wanted to accompany Su Zheng to dinner at noon today, and someone who favored Feng Ziying came, saying that there was an urgent matter and asked Jia Cong to go over now. Su Zheng was not in a good mood this time, and he was angry from the three county lords to Situ Pan, and naturally to Feng Ziying, and he was angry at his people: "What time is this?" Don't you give food to anyone? "Drink Ling Jia Cong" is not allowed to go! β
They all found the Su family, how can it be a trivial matter? It's just that Su Zheng is not happy this time, and Jia Cong doesn't dare to leave! I had to give the man a look: "Go after eating." Feng Ziying's people were anxiously squeezing their eyebrows, but Su Zheng just wouldn't let them go. Jia Cong couldn't do anything, and said again, "Wait a minute, I'll go over as soon as possible." The man had no choice but to leave.
During lunch, Su Zheng deliberately talked a lot with Jia Cong, and the effort of the meal was long. After eating, he was left to talk for a while, and he rubbed it for most of the hour.
It was easy to get out, and Jia Cong hurried to Feng Ziying's yamen. Feng Ziying had already waited to jump to her feet, and complained: "Why is it so long." β
Jia Cong spread his hands: "The old man is in a bad mood, he can't do anything." If I dare to come, I'll have to make him angry. Urgent? β
Feng Ziying couldn't deal with him at this time, and said, "You have invited Mr. Western, you must be able to understand Western?" β
Jia Cong touched the back of his head: "There are dozens of foreign languages...... I'll only have one. Do you want to deal with Westerners? β
Feng Ziying said: "Smuggling fire. The gun thing was too big, and I made people keep staring at the sesame-stuffed Wang noodle restaurant in the north of the city. Someone sent them a letter in the morning. β
"Huh? Isn't it closed? β
Feng Ziying said: "The letter was sent from Nanyang by someone from the Tuohai merchant cargo ship, and I guess I don't know that they are closed." β
Jia Cong's eyes flashed: "Written in foreign language?" β
Feng Ziying said: "There are only a few lines of foreign text, and it is extremely important to choose those lines." You can see it. Then he took the letter out of his bosom.
Jia Cong glanced at the words on the envelope - well, Liu Hu's. I can't help but praise it. A few days ago, Chen Ruijin discussed with Xue Pan and made up a nonsense to coax Feng Ziying, only saying that Wang's noodle restaurant was doing a secret business of smuggling Western firearms. Jia Cong thought she was just looking for an excuse to come up with a random idea. It wasn't until this time that she realized that she had even encircled the foreign willow hooves. How did Liu Hu know that there were so many changes in Beijing? Still on the orders of the Empress Dowager, she is looking for a source of firearms other than the Red Bone Chronicle overseas. He didn't know that he was a traitor, so he still sent a letter to the address of Wang's noodle restaurant.
The letter said: He recognized a maritime merchant in Nanyang who was transporting firearms for the Red Bone Record, and the person did not cover it up, and he missed some details of the Red Bone Record. It turned out that the shopkeeper of this family was originally a sailor on a sea ship, and then he had been in the West for many years, and he was familiar with the firearms workshop owners of Western countries. Firearms were originally profitable, but this "Hi Shopkeeper" could get a very low price, and the price of the firearms workshop to sell to the Western army was higher than that of Red Bone Kee. Western countries were at war, and firearms were only allowed to be sold to the army. Fortunately, there is nothing in the world that gold and silver cannot buy. The merchant gave him the shop of an Italian smuggler. If you go there to buy illegal things, you have to have a code word, and the maritime merchant also wrote the code word routine to Liu Hu.
After reading the letter, Jia Cong spread his hands and said, "I don't recognize Italian words." There are all kinds of Western missionaries in Beijing, and it is necessary to find an Italian translator. β
Feng Ziying said: "How can you show them such an important thing." β
Jia Cong pointed to the Italian lines on the letter and said: "The characters of several Western countries are somewhat homologous. I didn't recognize the words, but I could barely break them. Now I just took a stack of paper and cut it into small pieces, and I guessed that I would cut them into phrases and copy them on the scraps of paper, and scrambled them to be translated separately by several Italian missionaries, and finally we put them together. If there is a sentence that does not go well, find someone else to translate that sentence separately, just say that it is copied from the commentary story. β
Feng Ziying couldn't help but nod and said, "You kid has a lot of ghost ideas. β
Jia Cong squeezed his eyes. Then he said in a low voice: "There is one more thing, I only tell Brother Feng, you ...... Forget it, if there is nothing to do, you don't need to tell the prince. Feng Ziying raised her eyes to look at him, and Jia Cong whispered that Su Cheng asked King Yan's daughter to rob her fiancΓ©.
Feng Ziying was shocked: "How can this be true!" β
Jia Cong smiled bitterly: "What else can Mr. Su do except quit his family?" The prince will not know about this matter, and he will not be troubled by it. If he provokes his temper, it will not be good if he has to ask his daughter to return the family affairs to Cheng'er. That county lord has a brother, and I don't want Cheng'er to get into their house. β
Feng Ziying thought for a while and sighed: "I have wronged Miss Su." It's no wonder that Master Su sulked. According to me, it's better to tell the prince. β
Jia Cong also sighed: "Cheng'er doesn't worry about getting married, don't talk about it if the prince doesn't ask." His old man is also very busy, how can he have spare time to take care of these children's trivial matters. I also count on him to send men to North America to assassinate and spread smallpox. β
Feng Ziyingqi said: "Why do you think about that person alone? β
Jia Cong said: "Because if he doesn't die, he will become the founder of that land. Ancestor. Destroy him, and destroy the fortunes of the other country. β
Feng Ziying took a deep breath, and after a while, nodded: "I know." β
Jia Cong hugged his fists, and suddenly remembered a person again, and wrote a name; After pondering it again, two more were added. At the end, three names were written:. Nai Dao: "I don't know where these three are in North America, but I seem to remember that they are all descendants of immigrants from England and are local nobles. If you don't clean it up sooner, you will become the founding father of that country. There are four people in total, and the annoying prince and Brother Feng must not stay. β
Feng Ziying said: "Since it is a wang clan, it is easy to find." But he carefully folded the paper and put it in his bosom.
Jia Cong looked at Liu Hu's letter again and said, "Is this useful to us?" Since they are smugglers, and the goods are more expensive and less expensive than Red Bones, they are not necessarily good. β
Feng Ziying said: "It's not that we want to buy it, we can't let others buy it." The king's widow must be found. β
"Oh, that's right."
Jia Cong finished copying the Italian and was fine, and went back to work in the Hanlin Academy. Feng Ziying thought about it again and again, and finally found a time to return Su Cheng's matter to Situ Pan. Situ Pan immediately ordered someone to find the mother of the three county lords to inquire. For a while, someone went back and forth, and the girl really contracted the illness for more than a month. Situ Pan sighed: "I wronged the child of the Su family." "He commanded a great gift to their house.
Su Zheng almost beat the gift-giver out! I endured it stubbornly, and the roots of my angry teeth hurt. As soon as they were gone, the old man ordered to throw out all the gifts. Su Cheng hurriedly said, "Grandfather! Something is innocent! If you don't want me, give it to me, I'll keep it as a private room. β
Can Su Zheng ask for her things? He stumbled and dusted his hands at her again: "Take it, take it!" Su Cheng really smiled and ordered everyone to take it back to his yard, and carefully selected it for a long time.
On the other end, Liu Xiaoqi no longer closed his eyes and messed up the gambling house in the west of the city. Whoever went to Qi's house to make trouble, he disturbed a few gambling houses that the person frequented. A few days later, the gambling house in the west of the city could no longer be opened. It's just that the people in the gambling house gradually realized that this young man did not kill people, but only made trouble.
On this day, Liu Xiaoqi went to a big gambling house to make trouble, and the owner boldly stepped forward and asked, "This hero doesn't know why he came to our shop?" The rivers and lakes are not big, and when they meet, they are friends, and everything is easy to discuss. β
Liu Xiaoqi glanced at him coldly and said, "It's these gamblers who disturb the neighbors when they lose money." I'm demolishing your gambling house today, so that they have nowhere to gamble, and naturally they won't disturb the streets anymore. Then he tore down the roof of the house and walked away.
When I got home, everyone else was asleep. Liu Xiaoqi quietly walked to Guan Liusi's house and knocked on the door, and said in a low voice: "Fourth brother, don't worry, the younger brother is rectifying the rebellion in the west of the city." Then he turned and left. Liu Si suddenly opened his eyes.
