Chapter 470: Wax Moon
What should I do if "uh......" won't answer?
Jiang Duanyu looked at Shu Jin, but smiled again. Said:
"It is true that filial piety is a good character, and I also want to be a filial son. However, since I knew that I was deceived from the Protectorate Mansion back then, there may have been interference from the Xie family's brothers and sisters, and I really couldn't fully trust my father anymore. ”
When Shu Jin heard this, he understood in his heart.
Jiang Duanyu is a person to put it bluntly, in fact, his temperament is a little extreme. Although, people who don't know him can't see this on the surface. Maybe it's because he hasn't been really loved since he was a child, so he's very sensitive to the kindness of others, and he's even more concerned about the malice of others.
Just like his master, whom she had never met, must be very good to him, and having a personal love must have been a very warm thing for Jiang Duanyu, who had never been seen by the Chai Xiong Ye clan at that time. So until now, whenever he mentions that master, his expression is still very nostalgic, and when it comes to the senior brother who killed the master, even if that person is no longer alive, he still has a little hatred.
When he just returned to the Protector's Mansion, he was not very close to Jiang Cangjin, although it was inevitable that he would be unfamiliar after a long absence, but with his understanding of him, Shu Jin could see that Jiang Duanyu did not let go of Jiang Cangjin at that time.
In fact, it can be said that Jiang Duanyu is a very passive person, someone always has to show favor to him first, he observes that the other party treats him sincerely, and then he will respond, and he will sincerely give back the kindness of the other party. Jiang Cangjin also got along with Jiang Cangjin constantly, and finally the father and son really got along.
But. Because of Xie Wanru's existence, because it was like that when he returned to the Protector's Mansion, he was very interested in Jiang Cangjin. Jiang Duanyu always has such a glimmer in his heart.
And when it was really confirmed that he was abducted by Xie Wanru and her brother, Jiang Duanyu began to wonder if Jiang Cangjin had really looked for his son for so many years, and even began to wonder if Jiang Cangjin had already guessed about his disappearance, and just let it go.
It's no wonder that Jiang Cangjin is the protector of the country. Didn't he track down his son's disappearance? Why did the child disappear and where would he go, if he really looked for it. How did you not find the slightest clue for 20 years?
Even if Li Hengcheng can find out Xie Qiang's handle, can't he?
Come to think of it, will there be a reason for the Zuo family? Could it be the reason why Jiang Cangjin is hindered by the power of the Zuo family?
I believe that no matter who you are, you will have such thoughts, right?
So. Jiang Duanyu's original idea of being really close to Jiang Cangjin was like a snail's tentacles. Stretched out, when in danger, it immediately retracted, and refused to reach out again.
As for why he is the most important to Ebatayu.
In fact, the time when he appeared happened to be his most desperate. Although he didn't mean to, but in retrospect, he can be said to be the second person after his master who is really good to him but doesn't ask for anything in return.
I didn't leave him behind in his most difficult time. And also gave him support and encouragement, and healed his leg. She said it. As long as he didn't do anything to be sorry for himself, he wouldn't leave him alone, and he did. Although the two of them have not been together for a long time, after all, they have survived the most difficult days together.
This is another form of mutual affection, right?
Therefore, even now, Shu Jin doesn't know what kind of relationship is between the two people, family affection? Love? Camaraderie? Maybe some? Anyway, the two have always been plain and bland, and they have really become husband and wife now, and they have come over like this. If there are no accidents, with the current situation of the two, they should still be able to walk a long way side by side......
Thinking so, Shu Jin smiled, put down his arm and stood up. Jiang Duanyu next to her was stunned because of her movements, and looked up at her with some confusion.
"Look, what? Are you going to sit here for the night? ”
"Huh?" Jiang Duanyu still didn't understand. The two of them haven't finished what they just said, haven't they?
"Well, what a kind. There is no need to discuss these things further. Don't worry, I didn't want you to do anything volcano filial piety, twenty-four filial piety. You think I'm the most important, that's better. It's unlikely, but if one day I'm on the opposite side of everybody, you're on my side. As he spoke, Shu Jin raised his hand and grabbed his hand, and with a gentle force, Jiang Duanyu stood up obediently.
Shu Jin looked at him and smiled, obedient like a big dog-like man, maybe many people look down on him, but she is pleasing to the eye.
Look at it again, well, it's still a big dog with a good look.
"Instead of sitting here for the night, let's go back to our room and do something else."
When a certain big dog heard this, he was immediately distracted, and his eyes lit up.
"What else?"
"Haha, what do you say?"
……
For the next night, I can only understand it, not say it. (Well, that's it, I don't dare to write below...... What do you want? Be serious! )
Changdu became covered in silver because of a snow last night, and the weather became colder, the morning sun gradually rose, illuminating the earth, and the people of Changdu also walked on the streets one after another, and some people shuttled between the various shops to buy things to be used for the New Year's Festival; Some people carry baskets and baskets, intending to sell their goods before the year in exchange for some silver to live a prosperous year. The streets of Changdu are bustling with people, and even in cold weather, they show a lively scene.
In the private room of Yiphang, a man standing by the window holds a wine glass, gently sipping the contents of the glass, squinting at the flow of people on the street, while savoring the mellow wine between his lips and tongue.
"Ah, this time, the wine tastes so good! It's almost ten years old! Zhuo Xian drank all the wine in the glass, walked back to the table with his mouth smashed, and said to Shu Jin who was talking to Zhuo Tong while touching the wine jug and wanting to have another glass.
Shu Jin raised his eyes to look at him, but did not stop him from pouring wine. However, there is still a reminder in the mouth:
"This wine is very strong, you can take it easy."
Zhuo Xian said hehe, Pippi said:
"Don't be afraid, not afraid. Master, I claim to be a thousand cups not drunk, but these are only two cups, what is it! ”
Shu Jin glanced at him, and no longer persuaded him, turned his head and continued to explain the various uses of alcohol to Zhuo Tong.
Shu Jin's winery is famous, and it also produces some ordinary liquor, but in fact, most of the alcohol used in the high-grade liquor she makes is produced from space. And then shipped over. In the winery, the final blending work is done.
The alcohol she gave Zhuotong at the moment should be about 80% pure. Zhuotong is a doctor, if there is alcohol for disinfection. Compared with the past, which can only be sterilized by fire and boiled, this will be much more convenient and thorough.
Zhuo Tong is a healer. Naturally, I also know how to disinfect with spirits. But it was the first time he had seen such a wine as pure as clear water, but with a rich aroma and a particularly fast divergence. He also tasted it, which was spicier and more punchy than the new wine that Shu Jin had just tasted for them. Shu Jin said that although this wine can also be drunk, the force is too great, and drinking it hurts his body. In his opinion, the same is true.
"It's good, I'll take it."
"Yes. Later, if you still need it, you can go directly to my brewery and pick it up. I'll have greeted them in advance. ”
"Yes. Good. ”
Zhuo Tong agreed, and then asked about the Xie family.
Shu Jin was named the lord of the county, and entered Beijing in the name of the imperial businessman, and then Jiang Duanyu recognized his ancestors and returned to his ancestors to become the prince of the Protector's Mansion, this series of changes was really unexpected. However, when they were in Jiangxing, they got along happily and had a cooperative relationship, and Zhuo Tong and the others knew that the power under Shu Jin's hands was not small, whether she was the county lord or not, whether Jiang Duanyu was the prince or not, the husband and wife were not simple, so they had always had a good heart to make friends with them.
In the past, Ge Cunzhong sometimes brought people to him to see a doctor and see an injury, and the Zhuo brothers also took it seriously. Up to now, although the Sanqi Hall of the Zhuo brothers is still the property of the Zhuo family, it has been faintly merged into the spark. Although they were not completely aware of the forces under Shu Jin's subordinates, they were happy to join in.
is not only because they fell in love with Shu Jin, but also because they have a common enemy.
Shu Jin had just said a few words to Li Hengcheng about the Zhuo family brothers, and roughly guessed about the life experiences of several people, and later became acquainted, and even knew the ins and outs of the matter.
The Zhuo family has been practicing medicine for generations, and their ancestors have been the imperial doctors of Ouchi, and their father Zhuo Yiyang was the imperial doctor of the Tai Yi Department and died. It's a pity that Zhuo Yiyang, who is upright, became a victim of the harem's competition for favor, and was finally framed and demoted, and later died of depression. The three brothers followed their father out of Changdu, but they always remembered the murderer who killed their father.
That's right, it wasn't someone else who harmed Zhuo Yiyang, it was Concubine Yun who was rightly favored in the harem.
Knowing that Shu Jin and Jiang Duanyu broke Xie Qiang, the right-hand man of the Zuo family, how could the Zhuo family brothers not be happy?
Li Hengcheng has already torn his face with the Zuo family, Li Hengcheng's father's attitude is still a little vague, so the brothers of the Zhuo family don't want to be in a corner of the country, anyway, the Zhuo family has a relationship with the long-term, if necessary, Zhuo Tong can re-enter the Tai Yi Department.
If they want to deal with the Zuo family one day, they also hope to be able to play a part in it.
Maybe when they came back in the past, they might still be embarrassed by the Zuo family, but now that there are Li Hengcheng, Shu Jin and Jiang Duanyu, it is not difficult to gain a firm foothold in the Tai Yi Department. As long as you stand firm, you will have a chance in the future.
As long as they can think of ways to reopen the events of the year and collect relevant evidence, when the Zuo family finally makes a crime, these may become the last straw that crushes the Zuo family!
For their return, Shu Jin is of course welcome. No matter what kind of move the Zuo family will make next, the more helpers they have, the better.
After Shu Jin and Zhuotong explained the general usage and storage method of alcohol, Jiang Duanyu explained the rest of the officialdom to them, and after a while, Li Hengcheng also came. So, a group of five people had a detailed discussion in the private room of Yiphang.
"It's about to be the New Year, and there shouldn't be any more action when I want to come to the Zuo family for a while, after all, there will be chaos during the New Year's Festival, and no one can afford it, so we just need to be careful about what they do after the New Year."
Li Hengcheng finally concluded.
Jiang Duanyu and Shu Jin also nodded, deeply convinced.
In addition to the brothers of the Zhuo family, Jiang Duanyu Shujin and Li Hengcheng were going to enter the palace to accompany the banquet. Although several people are now in Changdu, it is not good if they get together every day, and if they don't talk about their own things, it will easily arouse the vigilance of the Zuo family. Therefore, Jiang Duanyu and Li Hengcheng roughly understood the process of the state banquet, and then analyzed whether there would be any chance of being manipulated by the Zuo family and how to prevent it.
The group discussed for a long time in the Ippet Pavilion until they had dinner before leaving.
……
On the eighteenth day of the lunar month, several main streets in Changdu were blocked on this day, and ordinary people had to make a detour except for those who had passes.
As for the tokens, they are only available to those who are ordered to welcome the envoys of various countries. Now, Shu Jin sat in the carriage with such a token in his arms, staying on the main street that could lead directly to the Chunming Gate, waiting to receive foreign envoys.
Maybe it was because Shu Jin dealt with the affairs of Bilian Kingdom, made the Bilian envoy lower his arrogant head, and developed some glassware one after another, so Qi Yan thought that Shu Jin was the most suitable candidate to receive Bilian's envoy. So, the day before, after the emperor received Bilian's letter of state, he gave Shu Jin a token and asked her to greet Bilian's envoys in the city.
The weather was getting colder and colder, and Shu Jin was wearing a thick coat and sitting in the car waiting for movement. As long as the team of the envoy of the Bilian Kingdom enters the Chunming Gate, someone will come over quickly to inform Shu Jin, and at that time, Shu Jin will come out of the carriage and prepare for the reception.
Not long after, the sound of a fast horse sounded, Shu Jin lifted the curtain and looked out, and saw the soldiers who gave the order galloping from a distance, and turned over and dismounted and knelt down in front of him:
"Lord Qiyu Xiangtang, Bilian's envoy has already entered the Chunming Gate."
"Okay, I got it. Stand down. ”
"Yes!"
The soldier got up and led his horse back to the ranks behind.
Shu Jin also got up from the carriage, someone came over and put a footstool, and someone helped her walk down the carriage station. Shu Jin casually sorted out the fox fur cloak on his body a few times, then tucked his hands into his sleeves, and looked in the direction of Chunming Gate.
After a while, a team of people appeared in sight.
The snow on the main road in the city was cleared by someone in the ditch next to the road, but the cold weather did not melt, and occasionally a gust of wind would roll up some snow and whirl and fly. A small whirlwind swept the snowflakes into the distance, and then wrapped itself under the hooves of the horse, the leader of the envoys, and looked up at the horse's neck, a somewhat familiar face.
"Hey! Princess! ”
Aldan's old face smiled brightly, and after seeing that the person who greeted him was Shu Jin, he didn't greet him according to the fixed etiquette in the past, but casually called Shu Jin like an old friend.
"Hello, Aldan."
Shu Jin also replied naturally.
"You have worked hard from afar, the emperor has ordered someone to clean up the post house, please come with me."
As he spoke, Shu Jin nodded to Aldan, then turned around and went back to the car.
Even if you want to catch up, you won't rush to the street, will you? So Shu Jin's carriage led the envoy's team straight to the post house. (To be continued.) )
PS: Update sent! Oooh. I finally completed the task ahead of schedule today~~ I'm so happy.
