Chapter 204: Mired in the Quagmire
The two of them rode all the way to Beijiang Street, looking at the central square, Zheng Guogong was stunned, and said softly: "Go shopping first!" Hua Wen hurriedly led Zheng Guogong to the shop that sold horn combs!
Outside looks just a small faΓ§ade, a little inconspicuous, Zheng Guogong frowned, or tied the horse, walked in, into the narrow corridor, the inside suddenly opened, there is a gurgling sound of running water, Zheng Guogong looked at the exquisite layout around, the corners of his mouth smiled, looked at Huawen and said: "Wait a few you also choose, it seems that the name is well deserved!" β
As he was talking, a young boy who looked like a guy stepped forward with a smile, bowed and saluted, and asked with a smile: "But Zheng Guogong, there are people waiting for you inside!" β
Zheng Guogong raised his eyebrows, he didn't understand who was waiting for him here, even if he knew his whereabouts, it was impossible to know his temporary decision, Zheng Guogong turned around to look at Hua Wen, Hua Wen shook his head busily, signaling that Zheng Guogong himself did not reveal the news!
The two of them followed the little boy and came to a house made of bamboo, which looked very rare, the Eagle Tribe was surrounded by grassland, this kind of bamboo seemed not suitable for growing here, not to mention building such an elegant house, no wonder the horn comb here is so famous, just for this artistic conception, it is worth buying a few more!
Zheng Guogong followed the child and walked in, and when he saw the people inside, he was shocked, looking at it was just a child less than ten years old, and he was still a woman, Zheng Guogong couldn't think of what the other party could do to find him! Just as he was thinking about it, he heard Xiao Tong say with a smile: "Your guest has arrived, county lord!" β
Zheng Guogong raised his eyebrows, thinking of the county lord of the Eagle Tribe that Yun Xiangrong had mentioned to him. Looking at the girl in front of him, he smiled and said, "I don't know what the county lord is looking for me?" "But I'm not ready to sit down!
The county lord looked at Zheng Guogong with a friendly smile and said softly: "Zheng Guogong is in a hurry, if it's okay, just sit down and have a cup of tea!" Zheng Guogong wanted to buy something and leave, but when he saw the other party say this, he sat down, looked at the other party, and said with a smile: "The county lord has something to say quickly, I do have something to do!" β
The county lord took a sip of tea calmly and slowly put down the tea bowl. looked at Zheng Guogong and said with a smile: "Grandpa Guo is going to see Farewell." I don't know if you know, the Eagle Emperor is too sick to get up now? β
Zheng Guogong frowned, if what the county lord said was true, then there was no need for the emperor to make peace with the Eagle Tribe. If the lord of the county is telling a lie. He couldn't think of it. Why should the other party tell such a lie that is very easy to debunk!
Just as he was hesitating, the county lord had already whispered: "The Eagle Emperor has already made a will, and he has decided on a successor. It's just that I don't know who it's passed on, what do you think are the chances of winning? β
Zheng Guogong frowned, he didn't understand what this little county lord was looking for, but thinking about the county lord's question, he felt that the other party didn't seem to look like it was on the surface, it was so simple, how many chances of winning were there, I am afraid it would depend on the agreement between the prince and the eighth prince, looking at it now, the little girl in front of her seemed to be interested in that position, thinking of Yun Xiangrong praising this county lord several times, Zheng Guogong secretly and carefully observed the other party, drinking tea and looking calm and relaxed, as if chatting with neighbors, talking about the secrets of the Eagle Tribe, Zheng Guogong's eyes narrowed slightly, looked at the county lord, interrupted the other party's words, and said softly: "The county lord is fine, then I will take the first step!" After saying that, he made a gesture to get up.
The county lord sighed, looked at Zheng Guogong and said softly: "Grandpa Guo thinks that I am just a young child, and I am not enough to conspire with him, look at this!" After speaking, he took out the talisman of the Eagle Tribe and put it on the table!
Zheng Guogong obviously recognized the talisman, but he changed his words and asked with a smile: "The county lord invites me to tea here, does that mean that the county lord is the master here, if so, then please ask the county lord to give me some combs with novel styles, so that I can take them back and give them away!" Zheng Guogong looked at the county lord with a warm smile, but he didn't say a word about the talisman!
The county lord smiled heartily and said softly: "No wonder everyone outside says that Zheng Guogong is an old fox, but now it seems that it is true, Suo'er!" I saw the little boy who led the way just now, walked in, bowed and saluted, and the county lord had already said with a smile: "Take out the gift I asked you to prepare and take it away for Zheng Guogong!" Drop-off! β
Zheng Guogong was stunned for a while, but he didn't expect the little girl to take out the talisman, but she let herself leave like this! didn't stay, followed the little boy called Suo'er, and walked out with a smile! Hua Wen followed closely, just out of the shop, before he had time to lead the horse, Hua Wen had already stepped forward and whispered: "My subordinates have seen it, it is indeed the talisman of the Eagle Tribe, but I didn't expect it to be in the hands of a little girl who is less than ten years old, it seems that I am afraid that the Eagle Emperor will really die soon!" β
Zheng Guogong shook his head and said softly: "Leave first!" After saying that, they had already flown on their horses, and the two of them left the central square one after the other and ran to the other mansion!
The mansion is in the north of the city, passing from here, but a quarter of an hour has arrived, and I saw two mighty stone lions at the gate from a distance, Hua Wen hurriedly whispered: "This is it!" Zheng Guogong bowed, as soon as the two of them came to the door, someone rushed into the mansion, and another old man who looked like a housekeeper had already stepped forward and hurriedly bowed and saluted: "Fortunately, my master is waiting inside!" After speaking, he led Zheng Guogong into the mansion!
Zheng Guogong was a little puzzled, it was the first time he saw someone at the gate of the house even without a plaque, if it weren't for the pair of majestic stone lions, I am afraid that Zheng Guogong was not sure that this was a mansion, it was even simpler, there was no magnificent rockery, no mountains and mountains, no trees, and no purple flowers, but it was a three-story building surrounded by a lake, it could be seen that it should be an outer study!
But just this one, you can imagine spending a lot of money, you must know that this is a water-scarce grassland, there can be such a big lake, not to mention where the water is drawn from, just this one, it is enough to see the strength!
Zheng Guogong looked around, only glanced at it, smiled at the corner of his mouth, glanced at Huawen, and the two of them walked in one after the other! Hua Wen comprehended and saw the darkness around him! The corners of his mouth curled, and he followed Zheng Guogong in! I secretly said in my heart: It seems that today is the Hongmen Banquet, but just this battle, don't talk about Zheng Guogong, even Huawen doesn't look at it! I walked in happily, not paying any attention to the darkness at all. Slowly walked in!
The two of them walked in to take a look, but they were all stupid, and they were lying on the couch, and they could see that they were seriously injured, their faces were pale, they looked at Zheng Guogong's wry smile, and said softly: "I'm sorry, I can't get up, you sit!" After speaking, he motioned to the old man who brought Zheng Guogong in to make tea!
Zheng Guogong looked around, and there was no one else. I couldn't help frowning. Farewell has already said softly: "Just now someone attacked my mansion, I don't know if it's a coincidence or ...... You can see the darkness outside, it's the people of the Eagle Emperor, and they all say that the Eagle Emperor is dying. It seems that he is not at ease with the throne. Until I die! After saying goodbye, he looked at the painting on the roof in amazement. Only then did Zheng Guogong notice that the painting on it was the Western Elysium!
Farewell has said slowly: "I know that even if I am the one who is determined to succeed to the throne, it will not be me. But I'm not reconciled, please Zheng Guogong help me pass a word, I know that you and the Eighth Prince are in-laws, please talk to His Royal Highness, I agreed to his conditions! β
The corners of Zheng Guogong's mouth curled, and he said softly: "Since you are asking me to bring the words, you can directly fly the pigeon and pass the book, why borrow my mouth!" Zhen Bei looked at the roof and said slowly: "I can't communicate with the outside anymore, if you don't want to see me, I'm afraid I won't have a chance to contact the Eighth Prince, the Eagle Emperor wants to ask for peace, even if I know that you come to see me, I won't do anything to you, I'm sorry I can't keep you for dinner!" There will be a period later! Blessed send-off! β
The old man who had just led the way walked in and sent Zheng Guogong and Huawen out of the mansion!
Zheng Guogong frowned, since ancient times, I don't know how many people have paved it with blood, don't do it, I'm afraid it will anger the Eagle Emperor, but he also knows that there is no choice but to fold it!
The two of them returned to the hotel where they stayed, ready to rest for a night, and left, and rushed home to go to the New Year, Zheng Guogong was already a little homesick at this time, Huawen went to prepare hot water, Zheng Guogong looked at the box sent by the county lord in front of him, slowly opened it, picked up the things inside in surprise, and took a closer look, sure enough, it was a soldier talisman, Zheng Guogong was surprised, where can he still take care of washing, and shouted loudly outside: "Huawen come quickly!" Hua Wen flew in when he heard the sound! When I looked at the things in Zheng Guogong's hand, I was also stupid!
Hua Wen stepped forward, picked up the talisman and looked at it carefully, put down the talisman and said in disbelief: "It's the talisman of the Eagle Tribe, it's right, it's just that the county lord did this, wouldn't he give up the Eagle Tribe, could this be a trap?" β
Zheng Guogong shook his head, looked at the soldier talisman, and said softly: "We are not as good as a child, this child has courage!" Let's inquire, see how the county lord is, and then go to explore the Eagle Emperor's condition, by the way, see if you can find out which one the Eagle Emperor wants to succeed to the throne! Hua Wen was relieved, and hurriedly bowed and retreated!
Zheng Guogong looked at the talisman in front of him, and couldn't speak for a long time, no wonder Yun Xiangrong mentioned this county lord several times, and also said that the county lord was born to jump out and was a strange woman with a mind, and now it seems that Yun Xiangrong is a little accurate! Zheng Guogong condensed and fell into deep thought!
The Yun family has already gotten the news, knows about the rebellion of the Jade Prince, and also knows that the fifth lady saved the Queen Mother, and she is still raised in the Queen Mother's palace!
The fourth lady cried all day, her eyes were crying like walnuts, she cleaned her face with well water, and slowly came to Rong Guogong's small study! Looking at the depression around her, the fourth lady wrapped the big one tightly wrapped around her body, this big one was given to her by her grandmother before the Chinese New Year, and now she is wearing it, but she only feels cold, the fourth lady walked a few steps quickly, stood in front of the door of the small study, and gently knocked on the door of the study, and an old voice sounded inside: "Come in!" The fourth lady pushed the door in, but the moment she saw Rong Guogong, she burst into tears!
Rong Guogong slowly put down the letter in his hand, looked at the fourth lady and said softly: "Why did you come here so late, it's cold outside, why don't you take a hand stove!" β
The fourth lady couldn't bear it anymore and couldn't help but cry!
Rong Guogong looked sad, and said softly: "You child has been sensitive since he was a child, I always thought that even if my grandfather didn't say it, you could understand that the jade prince was not a good match, and my grandfather wanted to postpone the marriage, but he was afraid that there would be this day, okay, don't cry, hurt your eyes, and have time to see your third sister, before Yun Yatou got married, for this matter, she came to me on purpose, for fear that the jade prince would rebel and cause you to lose your life, so I specially asked me to stay with you for a few more days, I thought you knew our hard work, but now it seems, I'm afraid you don't know! β
The fourth lady cried for a long time, as if she was going to shed all the tears of this life, this whole day, she thought a lot, if it wasn't for her grandfather who got the news in advance, she wouldn't have left her already old self at home, now it seems that if it weren't for her grandfather, she would have been in a different place, but she didn't expect Yun Xiangrong to plan for herself, she was blinded by the princess's false name before, and she always felt that she was a princess, and she didn't have any sincerity for her sisters, and now she regrets it!
Seeing that the fourth lady gradually stopped crying, Rong Guogong sighed and said: "The Jade Prince's Mansion has been copied and beheaded, and the disaster has been avoided, I am afraid that if it is your marriage in the future, others will also criticize it!" Grandfather hasn't thought about it yet, but do you have a plan for yourself? β
The fourth miss was stunned for a while, and looked at Rong Guogong in confusion, isn't the marriage all the order of the parents, the words of the matchmaker, what can I do, Rong Guogong looked at the confused fourth miss, and sighed in his heart, they all have no biological mother, one is resolute and intelligent, and the other is so cowardly, looking at the fourth miss and whispering: "I haven't thought about it yet, just think about it, and see what I want to do in the future, what my grandfather can find for you is just a child of a general's family in the army, and there is no prominent identity, but looking at the old face of my grandfather, I am afraid that they will not dare to give you anger, But the days are still your own, and you want to be willing, go back and think about it, and tell your grandfather that you are the only one left in the family, and you can choose slowly! β
The fourth miss looked at her slightly old grandfather, she had heard about the seventh miss, she knew that her grandfather could find her an innocent family, but the third miss Yun Xiangrong, now she is the Duchess of Zheng Guo, and the fifth miss has now saved the queen mother, I am afraid that the future will be both noble and noble, the fourth miss is still reluctant to be compared to the sisters in her heart, and the sense of superiority from childhood to adulthood makes her unable to make up her mind for a while!
Rongguo has read countless people, and when he saw the appearance of the fourth lady, he guessed the calculation in the heart of the fourth lady, sighed secretly, and said softly: "Qi Dafei, you go back and think about it!" After speaking, he waved his hand, and he could see that he was tired!
The fourth lady saluted and bowed and retreated! stumbled all the way back to his residence, took out his mother's relics without a look, looked at the faded hairpin, and cried and said: "Mother, what should I do, can't I really marry a man with a noble status......" The fourth lady suppressed and cried! (To be continued......)
