Jiu Niang, who was standing on the side, saw him like this, and a look of concern appeared in her eyes, but she didn't say a word of concern, just walked behind Lin Shan silently, then raised her hands on his shoulders, groped the acupuncture points on his back and neck a little, and then gently rubbed it.

Jiu Niang's hands, the fingers are slender and powerful, and the knuckles of the fingers are not prominent, and the skin of the fingers is smooth and elastic, and the curves are even. When these hands are used for massage, they only need to move a little to reach a wide range of skin acupuncture points, which naturally makes people feel extremely comfortable.

Lin Shan closed his eyes and enjoyed it quietly for a while, then said slowly: "If you let the Gongzi brother in Kyoto know that Jiuniang from Dongfeng Tower is using her hands to play a golden song to give a free massage to a court prisoner, will they be so angry that they will hurt themselves?" ”

"But it won't be long before this person who committed the crime of deception at the age of the weak crown will be famous again for this crime ten years later." Jiu Niang, who was standing behind Lin Shan, smiled when he said this, regardless of whether he could see it or not, and then said: "It's just that this time I got my name not because of a crime on a crime, but because I was directly promoted from a prisoner to a first-class minister. Wouldn't it be a blessing for me to be able to serve such a strange man before anyone else? ”

Lin Shan also smiled, but he didn't say anything more about the matter. After a few moments, he put away the smile on his face and sat up straight from his chair, his hands resting on the armrests moving to his knees. Seeing the change in his scene, Jiu Niang didn't need to say what he meant, the hand that was pushing on the side of Lin Shan's neck stopped, and she turned around and walked in front of Lin Shan.

Lin Shan didn't say anything to play the prelude. The content of the conversation with Jiu Niang directly changed from the relaxed atmosphere just now to a little depressed, and he lowered his eyebrows and muttered: "After that person arrived in Kyoto, where did he go?" ”

Jiu Niang's expression also became solemn, and she said two words in a deep voice: "Xiangfu." ”

When these two words fell into Lin Shan's ears, his face lagged, and his eyebrows jumped.

After Jiu Niang saw this change in his expression. Somewhat worried, he added, "That man arrived a few hours before you." However, the threshold of the Prime Minister's Mansion is too high, and in the past few days, even the three sons who like pleasure in the mansion have not patronized the business in the building, so we can't investigate too carefully. Maybe they were prepared. Does it matter how heavy you lose? ”

"What I lost was just a few pieces of waste paper, which is fine, it's just ......" Lin Shan bowed up. With his elbows on his knees, he turned his palms to support half of his cheeks, and said with a solemn expression: "Originally, I just wanted to know." Who was working on the idea of the drawing, but I didn't expect it to be someone from the Prime Minister's Mansion. Prime Minister's Mansion...... There are many people, and the water is deep! ”

Jiuniang sighed and said: "In the past few years since you left, the Prime Minister has not put on a big show because of the power of his hands, after several years of operation, in addition to the group of officials who were sent away by the emperor, the Prime Minister's Mansion has dealings with many officials in the current court. It is difficult to distinguish between public and private affairs, and it is even more difficult for the prime minister to trespass. Maybe someone in our building could go in, but the result of going in was just listening to the chatter of some two official ladies all day. ”

After she spoke, she continued: "In addition, the Prime Minister's Mansion also raised a large group of Qingke, which is said to be made by the three sons of the Prime Minister's Mansion who do not seek fame and fortune, but only seek friends, and travel all over the world. They spend their days in the house chanting poems, paintings, making tea, and talking, and often changing the number of people, and for good reason, that is, the princes of the prime minister make good friends, but do not restrict their freedom. Therefore, if there is cloth and white ding in and out of the gate of the Prime Minister's Mansion, it can be pushed to the first-class Qingke, and this group of people who have no official titles and are changing at any time are difficult for us to grasp. ”

Lin Shan raised his eyes and said, "You mean, that rat may be one of the first-class Qingke?" ”

Jiu Niang nodded.

Lin Shan suddenly smiled and said: "The Prime Minister's Mansion is really full of talents, and the source of 'talent' is fresh!" But the meaning of his words was both praise and disparagement.

Jiu Niang was not in the mood to joke with him at this time, her eyebrows tightened, and she asked, "If that's the case, then what's the matter?" ”

"If we really want to investigate those clearances, we can only be in the shadows and our weak forces will be even more weakened, so we don't need to worry about them. For such a loose bravery, I believe that the prime minister will only use them once and then become an outcast. After Lin Shan said this, he pondered for a long time before he spoke again: "They didn't steal anything from me, and I don't know their true roots, this time we are tied." ”

Jiu Niang couldn't help but say, "Isn't the problem already visible?" Out of the Prime Minister's Mansion! ”

Lin Shan smiled and said, "You already know that the prime minister has dealings with many people, maybe he is just a middleman. In the past few years, the emperor has spared no effort to purge the foreign ministers of the Qing Dynasty, and the prime minister's life must not be very peaceful, before he became the prime minister of this dynasty, he is still a person who has been in the position of the prime minister of the previous dynasty for more than ten years, even if he can't help but want to do it, the emperor will not give him this opportunity, and it is impossible to even have a chance to show a little sprout. If he really has this heart, in this day and age, the most he can do is to be the middleman. ”

Jiu Niang was puzzled: "I don't understand, since the emperor is wary of the prime minister, why would he give this former important minister such a big power position?" Since the prime minister is still a little restless in his heart, why can he still bow down and be a minister for so many years? ”

At the beginning of the founding of the People's Republic of China, the emperor needed talents, and as long as the prime minister did not move, he was indeed a great talent." When Lin Shan said this, he curled the corners of his lips and said with a smile: "And the prime minister was born as a champion who was less than thirty years old in the previous dynasty, and he became a supreme minister, which was actually just a measure taken by the emperor at that time to contain another powerful official. At that time, the prime minister was able to hold others for so many years with his own wisdom, how powerful it was! And with the lessons of the past, of course he didn't dare to cultivate his manpower so quickly, but he didn't expect that before he had time to think about it in the long run, even the emperor was replaced. ”

Lin Shan touched his chin and said lightly: "When that great talent was the prime minister of this dynasty, he had no wealth, no one and no power, if he was still unaffected by the new monarch's grace at that time, the emperor would kill him as simple as breaking dry grass." The decay of the previous dynasty has aroused the anger of the people for a long time. Zhou Jun is not really kind to him, with his intelligence and age at the time, he naturally will not die with the ignorant title of 'loyal minister'. If you receive the title of prime minister again, you can live in the present, and there will be more opportunities to plan in the future. ”

After a pause, he smiled again: "However, the prime minister has the senior official who was so beaten by him in the previous dynasty that he didn't dare to move as a precedent. Why doesn't the Son of Heaven today take the king of the former Zhou Dynasty as a wake-up call that often rings in his ears? And our Emperor Xià will grasp things more tightly. Surely a minister will not be allowed to take precautions when the power is so great that the royal power is in danger. ”

Jiuniang wrinkled her brows and said: "These things are too winding and too chaotic, and it is really tiring to remember such things in my heart from time to time." So it occurred to me. I'm still good at following orders, and I'll leave all these nerve-wracking things to you to do. ”

Lin Shan said gently: "Okay, then you continue to live your normal life." You don't need to worry too much about the Prime Minister's Mansion, you may all live like this for a long time in the future. ”

When Jiu Niang heard this, her eyes quickly showed a look of surprise. said, "Why is that? Is it just a matter of letting it go? ”

"I waited for a long time and didn't wait for the opportunity to do it myself, and if the prime minister wants to move, he must also use the means of borrowing strength. In this way, if you alarm them, not only will it not damage their body, but it will startle the snake, so this is the only way. ”

Lin Shan said and looked at Jiu Niang's eyes. Wen Yan said: "If the string is pulled too tightly, it is easy to break, and as a reporter." In fact, the most important thing to do on weekdays is not how to find out the news, but how to make your identity look more like an ordinary person. So, even when you're resting, you're actually working. ”

"You're just using an excuse to reassure me." Jiuniang looked at Lin Shan, and said calmly: "When it comes to the word 'rest', I really want to know, when are you going to rest for a while?" You don't want us to interfere in this matter, are you ready to take it alone again? This time you came, and you didn't bring a helper, but you brought the child? What exactly are you going to do? ”

"I'm going to settle that kid in Kyoto, and then I'm going to leave for Aokawa." Lin Shan didn't hide much from Jiu Niang about his next move, he added after a slight pause in his tone: "The emperor has prepared enough soldiers and horses, and the preparations on my side are also complete, now you just need to go out as planned, and the matter has reached the simplest part, you don't have to worry too much." ”

Jiu Niang's eyes were worried, and she said softly: "The identity of that child...... How are you going to settle her? ”

Lin Shan pressed the corners of his forehead and said slowly: "I definitely can't take her to Qingchuan again, it's better to send her home than to stay anywhere, and in that case, the burden on my body will be lighter." ”

Jiuniang lost her voice and said: "But ......"

Lin Shan raised her hand at the right time and cut off what she wanted to say: "At this time, I have other arrangements, so I won't say anything about it now." ”

"Yes." Jiuniang replied in a low voice.

After that, there was a long silence.

After listening to what Lin Shan said just now, Jiu Niang's mind was very chaotic at this time, and she had a lot of questions that she wanted to explain, but she didn't know where to start.

Lin Shan, on the other hand, sat back in the rattan chair with a relaxed body. In fact, when he was talking just now, he was also sitting on the rattan chair, but unlike this time, his body was tense just now, and his mind was quickly processing the problem, and he was not enjoying the comfort brought by the rattan chair at all. And now, he sits in a wicker chair, and he is really thinking about 'sitting'.

After sitting quietly for a while, I don't know if I figured out one thing in my heart or let go of one thing, Lin Shan suddenly breathed a sigh of relief, and then said: "I don't know if it's because these things are too sad, I feel hungry after thinking about it for a while, Xiao Jiu, do you have anything to eat here?" ”

"You...... It's not that you're hungry because you're thinking about something, it's that you haven't eaten at all in the afternoon. Seeing that he was finally willing to take the initiative to withdraw his thoughts from those complicated things, Jiu Niang herself felt a little more relaxed, and after glancing at Lin Shan with disgusted eyes, she said with a smile: "At night is the time when the backyard kitchen is the richest food, what do you want to eat?" ”…… (To be continued.)
