Chapter 278: A Dream
As soon as Chen Qiuniang said a word, Hongmei immediately knelt on the ground, opened her hands widely, made a big salute, and said: "Miss Su is thoughtful for my son-in-law, Hongmei is grateful, and Hongmei will cooperate with Miss Su." ”
"Polite words don't need to be said. Since your son-in-law led the army, he has been in crisis all the time, and now that the danger is imminent, you must not hesitate any longer. Chen Qiuniang stood up and said to Hongmei very strictly.
Hongmei got up and nodded, her expression was firm, and she invited Chen Qiuniang to a secret room and let Nianqiu and the others guard outside. Only then did she answer Chen Qiuniang's question and talk about the shape of Cangzhou Mansion.
"This Cangzhou Mingli is from the Song Dynasty, but the officials here are large and small, and many of them are the minions of the Liao people. In other words, they have no morality and family and country at all, they are mercenary, and the Liao people promise benefits, so they will do things for the Liao people, and even betray the country. There were even many people who openly went to the sixteen states of Yanyun to serve as staff and officials in the Liao people, and in turn attacked the Song. Because they knew a lot about the shape of the Song Dynasty, they were also familiar with the marching formation. Once the war starts, the Liao people can enter the land of no one, even if one or two iron-blooded generals can hold one or two cities. But the sixteen states of Yanyun are all plains, and the Liao people can bypass the city. When Hongmei said this, she gritted her teeth and said, "Actually, there is no point in leading the army here. It's too chaotic here, there are Liao spies everywhere, and their own people are not reliable at all. The imperial court also pushed my little son here. ”
"You say this, I understand what the court means." Chen Qiuniang said.
"The girl is a smart person. The imperial court wants to deal with the Zhang family, but the Zhang family's thousand-year-old family, in the army of the times, has a deep foundation, how can it be said to move? Moreover, General Zhang Yongde was cautious in his words and deeds, and the imperial court couldn't grasp the handle, so they wanted to cut off General Zhang's right-hand man, and the first to bear the brunt was our Jiang family. The Jiang family has been the deputy general of the Zhang family for several generations, working together and being invincible. Hongmei also said hatefully.
Chen Qiuniang nodded and said, "I've been thinking about why the imperial court sent your son-in-law to lead the troops. He was originally raised in the mountains, where does he know how to lead soldiers? And that temper is likely to get into trouble. But I didn't expect those people to harbor evil intentions like this. ”
"Who's to say it isn't? Cangzhou Mansion is the oil pot, and a group of big ghosts and little ghosts are secretly making a fire, eager to stew the little boy and pull the Jiang family into the water by the way. Hongmei sighed, showed fatigue on her face, and said faintly: "Actually, I don't think there is a moment to rest, and I have to be on high alert at all times, I'm really tired." ”
Chen Qiuniang didn't say anything, walked straight over and hugged Hongmei, patted her on the shoulder, and said, "Don't be afraid, the Jiang family is not as weak as you think." I know that the other party wants to put your son-in-law here, he is jealous and hateful, his temperament is unstable, and if he is not careful, he may be charged with collaborating with the enemy and treason, which will affect the entire Jiang family. But since we are already here, we turn the bad into the good. ”
Hongmei put her head on Chen Qiuniang's shoulder, and said with some frustration: "Miss Su, I am relatively smart in this group of people in the Jiang family, but I can't handle it yet. ”
"It's okay, there's me. You just have to give it your full cooperation. Chen Qiuniang said.
"Really?" Hongmei was suddenly overjoyed, raised her head suddenly, and looked at Chen Qiuniang with a look of surprise.
Chen Qiuniang smiled and said, "Yes." However, you need to provide me with more detailed information, including the information of the officials of Cangzhou Prefecture, large and small, as well as the generals of the sixteen prefectures of Yanyun on the opposite side and the origin of the Han officials. ”
"Don't worry, girl, these things can be delivered to you tomorrow afternoon." Hongmei arched her hand and said.
"It's freezing cold, tomorrow afternoon, can it really be done?" Chen Qiuniang asked.
"Hongmei is not talented, but this can still be done." Hongmei said firmly.
Chen Qiuniang naturally did not doubt the strength of the Jiang family, which was the ninth great family. The Nine Great Families have deep roots, and Hongmei may not know the Nine Great Families, but she definitely has the Jiang family's own intelligence network.
"You sue your person in charge, be sure to find out the major officials in Cangzhou Prefecture. Also, I want to know the whereabouts of a person. Chen Qiuniang pondered again and again before slowly spit out the three words "Han Derang".
Hongmei frowned and said, "Miss Su, who is this?" ”
"Don't ask who it is. This person is very important, and if you want to turn things around, you have to find this person. Chen Qiuniang said.
"Good. I don't know if Miss Su has any other clues for Hongmei? There must be a lot of people named Han Derang. Hongmei asked again.
Chen Qiuniang thought about it carefully, and then said: "His father was a Han who was plundered by the Liao, and later became a big official. I forgot what the specific official was. This person and the recently deceased third daughter of Prime Minister Xiao, the queen of Liao Jingzong, are childhood sweethearts. Is that all, can you find out? ”
"No problem, within three days, there will be a detailed reply." Red plum guarantee.
Chen Qiuniang nodded, then paced back and forth, and after a while, she stood still, looked at Hongmei carefully, and said, "Hongmei, in this world, sometimes some things may also depend on the will of God. ”
Hongmei was stunned for a moment, then understood what Chen Qiuniang meant, and said, "Hongmei knows." ”
"Did Hongmei ever think that even if we did everything, we would still fail in the end. The Jiang family will inevitably fall into the trap of others, how can they solve such a situation? When we do something, we have to consider all aspects of our possibility. Chen Qiuniang guided step by step.
Hongmei shook her head and said, "Hongmei is just a maidservant, and she hasn't thought about it so much. ”
"You are very good to your son-in-law." Chen Qiuniang came to a sentence that was incompatible. Hongmei was stunned for a moment, and said that it should be.
Chen Qiuniang didn't care about her, and said directly: "When you talk about him, there is a slight pity in your tone, Hongmei loves your son-in-law very much, right?" ”
Hongmei lowered her head, her voice was a little quieter, and she tried her best to answer appropriately, saying, "Childe is my master, and he should be." ”
Chen Qiuniang chuckled and said, "Hongmei, I am a woman, and I also have a beloved." I won't say much, I just want to sue you, now, you have to leave a way back for your son-in-law. ”
"Back?" Hongmei looked at Chen Qiuniang in surprise.
"Yes, the way back." Chen Qiuniang smiled mysteriously, and then stretched out her finger and wrote the word "chai" in the void.
Hongmei's face changed, shook her head, and said, "That's just a rumor. ”
"Hongmei, I'm the apprentice of the Floating Light Prince. I know more than I know, and maybe it's not a rumor. The Zhao clan has always wanted to get the Chai clan's piece of talisman. That secret army has been in existence since Guo Wei was not yet an emperor. Chen Qiuniang said slowly. She is now desperate, and time is imminent, if she wants to investigate by herself, she really doesn't know if it is the Year of the Monkey.
Uncontrollable excitement flashed on Hongmei's face, and she said, "If it's true, then the Jiang family still has a way back." ”
"Yes. But this back road needs to be paved by you personally, and the teacher is famous, and the world is in the heart. If the children of the Chai family want to cause trouble, they must have meritorious deeds, and they must be loved by the people, so that the Jiang family will not grieve the name of the rebellious ministers and thieves. Chen Qiuniang said slowly.
Hongmei was already prostrate on the ground, made a big salute, and said, "Miss Su, Hongmei represents the son, and on behalf of the Jiang family, thank you." ”
"Don't thank me, your son is the purest of the people I've ever met, and I can't allow those garbage to count him." Chen Qiuniang said. Then, he sighed again and said, "Now, what we need to do is how to deal with Green Song. ”
"Don't worry about this, the girl is a disguised saint, with your words as a guide, my son-in-law will definitely listen to you." Hongmei said.
Chen Qiuniang smiled and said, "After a stick of incense, you give your son-in-law an antidote." I gave him a dream. ”
Hongmei was puzzled, so she asked, "A dream?" ”
"The world only knows Fuguang Gongzi, but they don't know that my master is also called Mr. Xinghe." Chen Qiuniang said with a smile, and in Hongmei's surprised expression, she said, "I can lead Gongzi Jiang to meet his old man in his dream." He will not listen to the words of others, but he will definitely listen to the words of his deceased. ”
"Miss Su, you, you are really a god. If it can really be done, I am afraid that the knot in Childe's heart can be untied. Hongmei was so excited that she burst into tears.
"Silly girl, what are you crying about? How good life is, how good life is. Chen Qiuniang raised her hand to wipe her tears.
"I, I just didn't expect to be able to untie Childe's heart knot." Hongmei's tears fell.
"Okay, don't cry, in the future, you and your son-in-law will have a long life." Chen Qiuniang quipped. Hongmei lowered her head, looking shy.
Chen Qiuniang stretched her waist and said, "You go and serve your son-in-law, and let Nianqiu and I go back to prepare." ”
"Yes." Hongmei said, stood up and opened the door of the secret room.
Hongmei went straight to take care of Jiang Fan, Chen Qiuniang took Nianqiu and a few other maidservants back to her residence, she thought about it, let them find some things, and personally cooked the kind of vegetable leaf bun that Jiang Fan ate at the beginning, and then took the utensils and went to the courtyard where Jiang Fan was, and in a closed room, she took off her disguise, revealing her true face.
She looked at the beautiful face in the mirror with the candle flame flickering, and she was a little stunned. This is really a face that captivates the country and the city, delicate skin, radiant, without any flaws, and the eyebrows are fluttering.
She looked at the unfamiliar face in the mirror, stood up, put on her clothes, went to Jiang Fan's room, lit a candle, and put the side dishes, porridge, and vegetable leaf buns she had made before on the table.
Hongmei looked at her face with a shocked expression, and then shouted in a very uncertain tone: "Miss Su, is it you?" ”
She smiled and said, "Yes, Hongmei." ”
"This, is this what Childe's old man looks like?" Hongmei asked.
Chen Qiuniang nodded and said, "Yes, this is what Chen Qiuniang looks like." When your son saw her, she was eleven years old, and according to her appearance, she should be fourteen years old now. ”
"It's really beautiful." Hongmei's tone was low, as if she was frustrated. R1152
