The palace has been lit up.

Zhao Zhen sat in the study, holding his chin and looking at the candle flame and thinking about his thoughts.

Concubine Pang walked in with a soup cup and gently placed it in his hand.

Zhao Zhen came back to his senses, looked up at her, and frowned, "Didn't you let you go out of the palace with the Queen Mother and them to avoid it?" ”

Concubine Pang didn't speak, sat down beside him, opened the soup cup, there was stewed pigeon in it, and carefully took chopsticks to dismantle the pigeon bones.

At the door, four cats ran in, two big ones with two small ones.

The big cats are snow-white and off-white, and both kittens are off-white.

Among them, the big cat in beige jumped on the dragon book case, squatted in front of Zhao Zhen's eyes, meowed, and rubbed his head against him.

Zhao Zhen couldn't cry or laugh, reached out and touched its head, Concubine Pang scooped up a spoonful of pigeon meat and sent it to Zhao Zhen's mouth, while saying, "You gave the little third son to Yin Hou, and the cotton wool and peanuts have been looking for the yard for a long time." ”

Zhao Zhen opened his mouth and just wanted to explain, but the second bite was stuffed in.

"You go and avoid it, and the soldiers will be in chaos for a while," Zhao Zhen pinched a piece ......of pigeon meat and fed it to the cat.

"I'm not afraid." Concubine Pang raised her eyebrows, showing a little coquettishness, "I haven't seen anything." ”

Zhao Zhen smiled, Concubine Pang is indeed bold on weekdays, she has been pampered by the master since she was a child, she is savage but not barbaric, and she is the most likable place about her.

"The Emperor's ......"

Gonggong Chen ran in and was stunned when he saw Concubine Pang was there.

"How's it going?" Zhao Zhen asked.

"It's coming!"

Zhao Zhen nodded, picked up all four cats, and stuffed them into Concubine Pang's hands, "Then at least go behind the screen to avoid it." ”

Concubine Pang pouted, but she still stood up and walked back, halfway through and didn't forget to turn around and say, "You are not allowed to suffer." ”

Zhao Zhen couldn't cry or laugh, and waved his hand at her - hurry up and hide.

So, Concubine Pang sat behind the screen with the cat, and Zhao Zhen also stuffed her with a bag of melon seeds.

In Kaifeng Mansion, the little fourth son was wrapped in a quilt to read idle books, a sneeze came out, rubbed his nose, turned a page of the book, and bit a fennel bean.

……

The guards at the gate of the palace were sparsely lala, completely unaware that there were already several people who had infiltrated the palace.

Zhao Zhen continued to review the recital, and heard a commotion outside.

Nangong Ji walked to Zhao Zhen and stood up, and whispered, "Come in." ”

"Has anyone been hurt?" Zhao Zhen asked lightly.

"No, they all changed masters, and they resisted a little." Nangong replied in a low voice.

Zhao Zhen nodded and signaled to Zhilu.

At this time, I heard the sound of dense footsteps outside.

Then, a voice came, "Your Majesty! ”

Zhao Zhen pretended not to know, and said unhappily, "What's the noise?!" ”

"Your Majesty, the time has come."

The voice of the voice sounds both unfamiliar and familiar, unfamiliar because there are few opportunities to hear it, and familiar because it has not been long since I heard it...... Zhao Yuanzuo's voice.

"What time has come?" Nangong Ji asked rhetorically.

At this time, I saw Zhao Yuanzuo throwing up his sleeves and not passing the word, so he strode in, "It's time to abdicate!" ”

"Bold!" Nangong stopped, "Zhao Yuanzuo, are you crazy?" ”

"I'm not crazy, I was also killed by Zhao Yuanxi when I was crazy." While speaking, Zhao Yuanzuo looked at Zhao Zhen's expression.

At this time, Zhao Zhen was slowly drinking the pigeon soup, the pigeon had already been eaten, and it tasted good. Zhao Zhen's taste, several concubines are more familiar with the imperial chef, and he also prefers to eat the meals cooked by his daughter-in-law, which is very common people's feelings, and of course his wife will cook when he marries back.

Zhao Zhen didn't know if Lu Dao was a fugue or a soul flying out of the sky, so he was stunned for a while and asked Zhao Yuanzuo, "Have you eaten?" ”

Zhao Yuanzuo was stunned, but he was a little puzzled - Zhao Zhen is so stable? Is there an ambush? Can't you...... Foolproof, even if Zhao Pu is not dead, it will not be in the way.

Thinking of this, he glanced back and saw that his men and horses had entered the palace, surrounding the imperial study, and there was a commotion outside.

Zhao Yuanzuo made up his mind and looked back at Zhao Zhen, "Zhao Zhen, for the sake of you and my uncle and nephew, if you take the initiative to abdicate, I will spare you from dying, how about it?" You are my Gangneung Mu, I sit on your throne, this throne is originally mine, I am the ......"

"I'll show you something first." Zhao Zhen said, handing over a scroll of drawings on the table to Nangong.

Nangong shook and opened the picture.

I saw a chic man painted on the picture, very elegant and beautiful, wearing a brocade robe, with a cup in his hand, standing in the courtyard...... Between his eyebrows, he seemed to be a little sad.

Zhao Yuanzuo frowned, as if he didn't understand.

"You don't know this person, but you should know this person.

Zhao Zhen said, shook a triangular piece of paper in his hand, and handed it to Nangong, who pasted the face of the man below the eyes in the painting, so he ...... The figure in the painting seems to be veiled.

And look at the man again, a pair of eyes, eyebrows and eyes are a little crooked, the eyes are sad and depressed, as if there is something on the mind, and these eyes are so easy to recognize.

Zhao Yuanzuo was stunned...... These eyes are similar to the peach blossom girl.

"Zhang Meiren found a stand-in back then, and she looked a little similar to her, so much so that she gave birth to a girl and had such a pair of peach blossom eyes." Zhao Zhen said slowly, "It's just like the form, it's not like the god...... Knowing that the Tao is so easy to recognize, are these eyes so easy to recognize? ”

Zhao Yuanzuo's mouth opened slightly.

"Because it's a double pupil." Zhao Zhen still said unhurriedly, "Heavy pupils are rare, heavy pupils are not very obvious, the pupils are big and the eyes are brighter." ”

With Zhao Zhen's words, I saw that Zhao Yuanzuo's face turned a little pale.

"This picture was found from the warehouse, the warehouse in the Imperial Palace, a small warehouse where the items of the previous dynasty were hidden." Zhao Zhen sneered, "This painting was painted by Dong Yuan, the most famous painter in the Southern Tang Dynasty, and the one on the painting is a well-known heavy pupil in the world, who is the Dao of the Knowings?" ”

Zhao Yuanzuo's face turned white at this time, looking at Zhao Zhen.

"It's the queen Li Yu." Zhao Zhen looked at Zhao Yuanzuo, "Your peach blossom lady is a descendant of the Southern Tang royal family, and you cooperated with the prince and grandson of the previous dynasty to rebel?" What do you say is the difference between you and a pig? ”

On the roof, Zhanzhao and the others, who had been eavesdropping for a while, couldn't help laughing - what Zhao Zhen said, Zhao Yuanzuo is estimated to be angry today, and the show hasn't started yet.

The sudden change made Zhao Yuanzuo stunned, then thought about it, and quickly calmed down, "Zhao Zhen, you don't have to delay time, now the entire Kaifeng is under my control, the border army is 108,000 miles away from here, Zhao Pu himself is difficult to protect, no one will come to save you, obediently hand over the throne, I don't want to hurt you, after all, ......"

Zhao Zhen suddenly turned around and asked, "Aifei, are there still pigeons?" ”

"Yes."

Concubine Pang came out, holding a kitten in one hand and a bag of melon seeds in the other, and asked, "The emperor still wants it?" ”

"Hmm." Zhao Zhen nodded, "The more I eat, the hungrier I become, I don't know what's going on." ”

"I'll get it." Concubine Pang said, stuffed the kitten into Nangong Ji's hand, and then ran out.

Zhao Yuanzuo turned around, and there were his own men stationed at the door...... But Concubine Pang ran all the way out, and no one stopped her.

Concubine Pang was afraid that someone was in the way, so she raised her hand and pushed it, "Oh, don't you bother, there are so many pillars, they are all rice buckets and breakfast!" ”

As she spoke, she had already run out of the courtyard to the imperial dining room.

Only then did Zhao Yuanzuo realize that something was wrong with the people under him.

"Someone!" Zhao Yuanzuo shouted, but did not move. 【

He hurriedly ran out of the acupoint, only to find that everyone had been pointed, and when and how to learn the acupoint, no one knew the way.

On the roof, Marquis Yin squatted and shook his head - this Zhao Yuanzuo, thinking that he could become an emperor by taking hundreds of rice buckets to the palace and going around in a circle? This time it's up to you how you die.

"I ......" Zhao Yuanzuo panicked at this time, thinking that there might be a change, so he wanted to run, but a person fell in front of him and stopped him with one hand.

When Zhao Yuanzuo saw that the person who came turned out to be Zhao Pu, he broke out in a cold sweat and sat on the ground, "You ......"

"What, Brother Yuanzuo." Zhao Pu stretched out his hand and patted him on the shoulder, "I haven't talked about the old yet, I'll leave after eating." ”

Zhao Yuanzuo's mouth opened wide...... At this time, he also knew that he was probably in trouble.

Zhao Yuanzuo hurriedly ran into the study and prostrate on the ground begging Zhao Zhen to spare his life.

At this time, Concubine Pang trotted in, holding a cup of hot stewed pigeon for Zhao Zhen.

Zhao Zhen stood up, took the soup cup, and said to Nangong Ji, "Prepare a dragon robe for Uncle Huang." ”

Zhao Yuanzuo was stunned for a moment, looked up at Zhao Zhen, and felt that he was laughing and humiliating himself.

Zhao Zhen smiled slightly, holding the soup cup and looking at Zhao Yuanzuo, "Doesn't Uncle Huang want to be the emperor?" Why don't you give it a try and see if you enjoy it? ”

On the roof, Marquis Yin was happy, "The little emperor is quite interesting." ”

Tianzun also nodded, poking at Yin Hou, "We'll also sit and watch in a while." ”

"Come to an emperor and do it one day, everyone will try it." Yin Hou felt that the proposal was good.

Zhan Zhao looked at the two old men a little weakly.

Zhao Yuanzuo looked at Zhao Zhen at this time, and he only felt very strange. He also thinks that he has seen a lot of people, some of them are always strained, serious and domineering, and some are always smiling and hiding knives in their smiles...... But he, the emperor's nephew, is neither smiling nor angry, neither tepid nor hot, and his speech is neither hurried nor slow, and he can't see any emotion.

Zhao Zhen walked behind the screen, and Nangong Ji summoned two little eunuchs and changed Zhao Yuanzuo into a dragon robe.

At this time, Zhao Yuanzuo was trembling, and the whole person was also sluggish, and he didn't know what Zhao Zhen was going to do.

Nangong Ji walked up to him, bowed his head, and said in his ear, "Lord Wang, enjoy it, whether you can save your life depends on your performance." After speaking, he gently patted him on the shoulder, "Be careful when you speak." ”

Zhao Yuanzuo sat slumped at the table, and Zhao Pu also walked in, nodding to him with a smile, "Be careful when you speak." With that, he ran to the back.

Behind the screen, Zhao Zhen was sitting on a pony eating stewed pigeons, Concubine Pang was eating melon seeds and drawing embroidery patterns on the side, and Nangong was standing still with a sword and a pillar.

Zhao Pu found a chair and sat down, and Peanut jumped on his lap and meowed.

Zhao Pu was amused and stretched out a finger to tease the cat.

Concubine Pang grabbed a handful of melon seeds and gave them to him.

Zhao Pu couldn't laugh or cry...... Concubine Pang and Zhao Zhen have known each other since childhood, although they are husband and wife, they are actually playmates. Seeing the two of them sitting in a row eating melon seeds, Zhao Pu suddenly remembered the time when they played together when they were children......

Thinking of this, Zhao Pu couldn't help but shake his head, there are really so many people in this world who want to snatch the throne of Laoshizi, Zhao Zhen has no way to sit down, there is a way to not do it a long time ago, and it is much better to be free with his beloved than to be locked up in the palace like this.

When Zhao Yuanzuo sat on the dragon chair and looked outside, the entourage at the door was gone, and he was the only one left in the entire study and courtyard.

At this time, there were footsteps outside, and I saw several women in white running in.

The first one is the masked Peach Blossom Niang.

Zhan Zhao and Bai Yutang and others are on the roof, hidden behind the cornices, and they can see it clearly.

Zhan Zhao looked back at Tianzun, which meant to ask—is it her?

Tianzun shrugged noncommittally - I don't remember.

Zhan Zhao was helpless, and everyone listened attentively.

As soon as Peach Blossom Niangniang entered the door, she saw Zhao Yuanzuo wearing a yellow robe sitting behind the dragon book case...... I don't know how to describe Lu Dao, but the words "wearing a dragon robe is not like a prince" came to mind.

"What about Zhao Zhen?" Peach Blossom Niangniang entered the main hall and found that there was no one outside, and she was a little puzzled.

Zhao Yuanzuo's face was pale at this time, and his hands were covered with cold sweat...... Zhao Zhen is behind him, not only Zhao Zhen, but also Zhao Pu! Zhao Pu was not injured at all and showed no signs of poisoning, indicating that there was no plan at all! Their plan failed, and if Zhao Pu had been prepared, then the few men and horses would definitely be killed by the Zhao family's army.

Thinking of this, Zhao Yuanzuo straightened his face, "Who are you?" ”

Peach Blossom Niangniang was a little puzzled by his question and looked at him.

Zhao Yuanzuo reached out and picked up the portrait of Li Yu on the table and threw it on the ground, "How do you explain!" ”

After the scroll falls to the ground, it unfolds naturally.

The portrait of Empress Li appeared at the feet of Peach Blossom Niangniang, she lowered her head, stared at it, and looked at it intently.

"Humph!" Zhao Yuanzuo slapped the table, "I have long seen that you have bad intentions and want to destroy my Zhao family, and cooperating with you is just a lie to you!" Now that people have stolen goods, what do you have to say?! ”

Behind the screen, Zhao Pu glanced at Zhao Zhen, Zhao Zhen held the soup cup and shook his head helplessly - this Zhao Yuanzuo really doesn't make sense to kill him! After all, it's a royal family, so it's a bit dignified. Isn't it just a rebellion, which prince didn't want to be the emperor, but instead, he was arrested...... It's a big deal, at least maintain the royal demeanor and have a backbone. Such repeated villains are extremely stupid, no wonder everyone was optimistic about Zhao Yuanxi back then. It's a pity that one is too stupid, so stupid that he can't be called the emperor at all, and the other is too smart, and as a result, being smart is mistaken by being smart.

Zhan Zhao and Bai Yutang glanced at each other - Zhao Yuanzuo also wanted to fight Zhao Zhen? It's not that the salt that you eat at a young age is a little more powerful, and compared to Zhao Zhen, he is simply weak.

Yin Hou suddenly asked Zhanzhao, "Have Zhao Pu and Zhao Zhen ever played chess?" ”

Zhan Zhao touched his chin, "I haven't heard anyone mention it." ”

At this time, Zhao Zhen finished eating the pigeon behind the screen, carried Mazha to the small table, and beckoned to Zhao Pu.

Zhao Pu smiled...... In the past, sitting cross-legged on the other side, Concubine Pang took out the chessboard and chess pieces from the small cabinet on the side and put them on the table, Zhao Zhen took the white zi, Zhao Pu took the black zi, and the two began to play chess.

Concubine Pang sat on the side and peeled oranges for the two, just like she used to do when she was a child. These two people can play a day at once, win or lose in half, and later when they grew up, Zhao Pu went to the border, Zhao Zhen shouted all day long that no one played chess, and the people in the palace let him.

Outside, the peach blossom lady saw that Zhao Yuanzuo was very strange, and she was a little suspicious, and when she heard that there seemed to be a sound behind the screen, she became a little alert. What she thought was that Zhao Yuanzuo might want to cross the river and tear down the bridge to plot against her.

Reached out and picked up the scroll from the ground.

Peach Blossom Niangniang smiled and reached out to take off the masked scarf, "The Zhao family is exhausted today, it was the Falcon King who said it, why don't you have the surname Zhao?" ”

Zhao Yuanzuo opened his mouth.

"If you are also surnamed Zhao, it means that you will die too!" Peach Blossom Niangniang said, and her subordinates waved their hands.

A few women in white drew their swords.

Zhao Yuanzuo hurriedly stood up, "You! Do you think you can escape? ”

"What am I going to run away for?" The peach blossom lady raised her eyebrows and her eyes widened, and her appearance was not covered by tulle at this time, and she was a little more similar to the queen in the portrait.

"You...... Is it really a descendant of the Southern Tang Dynasty? Zhao Yuanzuo was shocked.

"This palace should have been my Li family, your Zhao family robbed someone else's country, and you sat quite peacefully!" Peach Blossom Niangniang sneered, "I want all the people surnamed Zhao in the world to die with you, the king of the dead country, today!" ”

After saying that, she ordered, "Kill everyone in the palace!" ”

Zhao Yuanzuo saw that several women in white were killing him, so he hurriedly climbed onto the dragon book case, holding the screen, "Emperor...... Emperor! Help, Nine Princes! ”

"Boom", the screen was pushed away.

Behind the screen, Concubine Pang sat on a chair with the kitten in her arms, looking intently at the side, Zhao Pu and Zhao Zhen were playing chess, and they seemed to be killing each other, and no one looked out.

Nangong Ji held the knife and stood steadily not far behind the screen, with the fallen screen at his feet and Zhao Yuanzuo who was prostrate on the screen.

Peach Blossom Niangniang was stunned for a moment, then frowned, and said secretly - suffered!

At the same time, I heard the sound of horns all around, and there were arrows to the sky, and bright arrows exploded above the entire Kaifeng City, which was as bright as day in an instant.

A woman in white hurriedly ran in, "Palace Master, the peach blossom forest in Dongshan has been burned...... Our people have been ambushed, and the poison of the people of the city seems to have been cured. ”

Peach Blossom Niangniang took a step back, and saw Nangong Ji suddenly raise her hand and wave forward......

With his movements, a large number of Ouchi masters entered the study and began to encircle and suppress the group of people in white.

The man in white couldn't resist at all, covering the retreat of the peach blossom girl......

It's a pity that the imperial garden that didn't come out has been captured by Zou Liangsheng, who was ambushed there.

Zhao Pu ate a large piece of white from Zhao Zhen, and when he saw that he was not convinced, he smiled, "Let's get down to business, let's go down tomorrow." ”

Zhao Zhen pouted, "I will kill you tomorrow without leaving a piece of armor!" After speaking, he stood up and touched Concubine Pang's head, "Hurry up and go back to sleep." ”

Concubine Pang stood up, hugged the kitten, and went back to the palace with her entourage to sleep, and when she left, she glanced at the peach blossom lady with a high spirit, which meant quite a bit - my man is the first person in the world, and the feeling made Zhao Zhen a little embarrassed.

After Zou Liang caught all the people who had invaded the palace, he came in to report, "Everything is going smoothly according to the plan. In addition, Gongsun has developed an antidote, and asked Yao Susu to take the medicine and some people to the country to save people. ”

Zhan Zhao and Bai Yutang came down from the roof, although this time it was dangerous, and the other party was well prepared, but it still fell short...... All kinds of coincidences can be superimposed to have the best situation today, I don't know whether to say that Zhao Zhen is blessed by God, or the prosperity of the Great Song Dynasty.

……

Half a month later, Kaifeng City finally returned to its former calm.

Zhao Zhen didn't kill Zhao Yuanzuo in the end, after all, he is a benevolent monarch, and it is not good to say that killing his imperial uncle is not good, and if you want to kill him, you have to make his crime public. Then the people of the world know that Zhao Yuanzuo is a royal family, and he does not hesitate to sacrifice the people of the Great Song Dynasty for the throne, if this matter is publicized, won't he Zhao lose the hearts of the people? Naturally can't say!

Zhao Zhen dismissed him and his son from their official positions, and demoted them to the northwest, so that they could no longer make waves and reflect on what they had done.

As for Peach Blossom Niangniang, she probably lost all her thoughts, and before Zhao Zhen tried it, she committed suicide in prison.

Zhao Zhen was also helpless and buried her in the tombs of the Southern Tang royal family. Soon after, news came from the south, Muzhaoguo disappeared, and the missing women from all over the country were also found one after another, and the poison was resolved, and the matter was completely settled.

……

Early this morning, the fourth son got up early, sat and stretched, and found that Gongsun had not woken up yet.

Gongsun has been busy seeing a doctor for the past few days, staying up for a few nights, and he can finally lie down at dawn today.

The little fourth son lightly lifted the quilt and got out of bed, got dressed, helped Gongsun cover the bedding, and went out to the yard to wash up with the small basin.

When the little fourth son arrived in the courtyard, he saw Tianzun playing Tai Chi in the courtyard.

"Honorable early." The little fourth son ran over.

"Early." Tianzun gestured and pushed his palm, like flowing water.

The little fourth son secretly sighed twice, and took the basin to the well.

Zhan Zhao walked over, it seemed that he had just gotten up, helped the little fourth son fetch water, and looked at the room of the Marquis Yin on the other side, his grandfather hadn't gotten up yet?

"Your grandfather and your Aunt Hong left last night."

Tianzun's words shocked Zhanzhao and his bucket fell into the well.

He hurriedly ran to open the door and looked, sure enough! The room was empty and cleaned up.

Although Zhan Zhao always wanted to take Marquis Yin back to the Demon Palace before, why did these two leave without saying a word...... Zhan Zhao was inevitably disappointed.

"Where did you go?" Zhan Zhao was dissatisfied, "Don't say a word." ”

"Looks like there's something urgent."

Bao Zheng came in from outside the courtyard, it seems that the early dynasty has dispersed, "I was running into them when I was in the court this morning, Yin Hou said that you were still asleep and didn't wake you up, he had something to do and your Aunt Hong left first, so that you can remember to go home when you are free"

Zhanzhao nodded, but also frowned...... What's so urgent? Don't think there's something going on in the Demon Palace.

"Let's pack up and leave in the afternoon." Master Bao said, shaking his head helplessly.

Everyone was surprised, "Departure? Where are you going? ”

It's okay not to ask, but when he asked, Bao Zheng was obviously angry, "It's all to blame on that fat man!" ”

Everyone looked at each other - Master Pang? What's wrong with it?

It turned out that when I was in the morning court just now, someone said that some places in the north had begun to snow, and this year it was extremely cold, and it was necessary to send food and clothing to disaster relief, so as not to freeze to death on a snowmelt day.

Zhao Zhen felt that it was a top priority, so he asked who was willing to be an escort officer to go to disaster relief.

Zhao Pu said let him go, anyway, he was idle, and Zou Liang's men and horses happened to be here, they ran their horses quickly, and they might freeze to death a day later.

Zhao Zhen wanted to nod, but who would have thought that Master Pang said, "It's too dangerous for the Ninth Prince to go alone, and he is the generalissimo of soldiers and horses, where is the reason to let the generalissimo send food for disaster relief?" It's almost the same to trouble General Zuo Zou Liang to make a trip. In addition, the escort must be a civilian official, so as to check whether there are any corrupt people in the local area, and also supervise the fair distribution of food and clothing for disaster relief.

Everyone listened to what Taishi said about this, and they all understood that Taishi wanted to send Master Bao to the north for disaster relief, and fortunately, he was at ease in Kaifeng for two days, and he didn't have to be stared at all day.

Master Bao is not a fuel-efficient lamp, and told Zhao Zhen that Master Pang is more suitable.

So the two quarreled again in the Golden Palace.

Zhao Zhen plucked his ears and said, "Anyway, there has been nothing to do in Kaifeng recently, so why don't you two take your patrol team to accompany Uncle Huang." ”

After speaking, Zhao Zhen put down the dumbfounded Bao Zheng and Pang Ji, and went back to the palace happily, these two things are not in his mother's absence, and he can relax for a few days, so as not to listen to them quarrel every day and make his brain hurt.

Mr. Bao was helpless, so he asked people to sort out the dragon pattern scrolls in the north and see if they could solve a few cases by the way.

However, he also felt that he should indeed go to the north, the snow disaster was coming, and if the north part of the country did not provide disaster relief early, I am afraid that many people would die by then.

"Go north." Tianzun smiled and went to pack his things.

Zhan Zhao was curious, "Tianzun, are you going with us too?" ”

Tianzun nodded, "Well, I like snow!" ”

Only then did everyone remember that Tianzun's internal strength was extremely cold, and the ice and snow should be suitable for him.

So, Bao Shengren prepared a large number of winter clothes, and at this time at the gate of Kaifeng City, more than 100,000 soldiers and horses have begun to gather, a large number of things gathered, the people heard that they were going to the north for disaster relief, they donated their own clothes and food, let Zhao Pu help take away.

Zhanzhao packed up his clothes, turned around back and forth, and asked the little fourth son, "Did you see Bai Yutang?" ”

Xiao Sizi nodded, "I came here just now, and I heard that I was going north, so I left." ”

Zhan Zhao asked tentatively, "Didn't he say what to do?" ”

The little fourth son shook his head.

Zhan Zhao thought-will Bai Yutang have something to do and can't spare time, so he won't go together? It's understandable that he doesn't go, and he's not from Kaifeng Mansion.

He looked at Tianzun who was drinking tea in the courtyard again—there was no reason to leave Tianzun alone, right? It's also a reason to accompany Tianzun......

Just as I was thinking about it, I heard a commotion outside.

Zhan Zhao and the little fourth son both looked out.

I saw Bai Yutang walk in, and behind him, Bai Fu took a few servants and carried a few burdens.

"What's that?" Gongsun, who got up and was nibbling on buns, asked curiously.

"It's very cold in the north, you haven't been there, have you?"

Gongsun and the others all nodded, and Bao Zheng also walked out.

"It's okay for people who are too cold and have internal strength, but people who don't have internal strength can't stand it, and these padded jackets and bedding worn in the south are not used at all." Bai Yutang said, and Bai Fu came up behind him to open his baggage, "My lord, our house has been to the north once before, and there are a lot of warm clothes. ”

Bao Zheng leaned over to take a look, and the corners of his mouth twitched - those leather jackets, those fur shirts...... The mink, tiger, fox, and bear skins...... In short, there are all kinds of skins, and thick and soft wool blankets.

Mr. Bao is face is black and he can't see his eyelids jumping - he is really rich, it's too unusual!

Bai Yutang stretched out his hand to pick up the little fourth son, "The carriage rented in Kaifeng is not strong, and the northern mountain road is difficult to walk, so I changed a few cars." ”

The corners of everyone's mouths twitched - to put it less implicitly, your Kaifeng Mansion is too poor, right, so many broken cars still want to go north?!

Mr. Bao felt a little stomach pain......

Bai Yutang hugged the little fourth son and walked out, everyone was curious and followed out, and opened his mouth wide as soon as he walked to the gate......

I saw more than a dozen big carriages parked at the door, and the carriage was really big! It's ridiculously big, and the key is that it's not quite accurate to call a carriage, some of which are drawn by tall horses, some are pulled by camels, and there is a large group of dogs.

Zhan Zhao asked Bai Yutang, "Where did you prepare so many carriages and horses?" ”

Bai Yutang spread his hands, "This is the horse team of the Trap Island, we often go to the north to deliver goods, no matter how cold these guys know what to do, after all, the officials are not doing this, once the heavy snow closes the road, it will be useless to have many people." ”

Bao Zheng was embarrassed, Bai Yutang's kindness did help a lot, to accept it or not to accept it?

At this time, Zhao Pu happened to come back with people, and when he saw the carriage, he was happy, "Good thing!" Let's just go like this, can you withstand this car in the north! ”

As he spoke, he greeted the guys in Kaifeng Mansion and the horse team, "I'm moving things and getting into the car, ready to go." ”

Bao Zheng happily agreed, anyway, it was the prince who accepted it, as for Bai Yutang's favors...... Master Bao looked at Zhanzhao after the most - there is no money to pay for it, it's a big deal to pay for the meat!

Zhanzhao sneezed three times in a row, his nose was so itchy, and his left ear was super hot.

So, in front of the Kaifeng Mansion, there was a lively opening, and everyone was ready to go away.

Zhan Zhao looked at Bai Yutang beside him, Bai Yutang was giving Xiao Sizi a bag of pastries, which Chen Xing'er had prepared for him to bring.

Zhan Zhao scratched his head and asked, "Are you going too?" ”

Bai Yutang looked at Zhanzhao, "You don't want me to go?" ”

"Yes." Zhan Zhao opened his mouth without thinking about it, and felt that it was inappropriate, and added, "Tianzun is going too." ”

Bai Yutang nodded, "Yes." ”

"Hmm." Zhan Zhao also nodded.

Xiao Sizi looked left and right, and whispered to Bai Yutang, "Maomao was looking for you everywhere just now, thinking you weren't going." ”

Zhanzhao poked Xiao Sizi's waist with his fingers, and then poked his fat buttocks.

The little fourth son rubbed his ass and looked at Zhanzhao - it was originally true.

Zhan Zhao was embarrassed, Bai Yutang's voice was rare and not cold but very soft, "Anyway, I don't have anything to do, I will follow along the way, it's very interesting." ”

"What's interesting?" Zhanzhao asked him with a smile across his arms.

Bai Yutang thought about it and gave him a smile, "It's quite interesting in every aspect." ”

"That's right." Zhan Zhao was quite down-to-earth, Bai Yutang's words indicated that he would go with him wherever he went, no matter how many stops he had? That's a good dare!

In the evening, the mighty disaster relief team left Kaifeng Mansion and went north under the personal send-off of Zhao Zhen.

In the carriage, Gongsun held the little fourth son in his arms and looked through the dragon pattern scroll.

The carriage was indeed big enough for the little four to roll around in it.

Zhanzhao rode his horse, leaned to the window and asked Gongsun, "Sir, where is the first stop?" ”

Ouyang Shaozheng held the sheepskin map, "The first stop is to Syracuse. ”

"Syracuse?" Zhan Zhao heard of this place name for the first time.

"Actually, it's Baizhou City, because it often snows and freezes, so it's also called Snow City." Ouyang is worthy of being a geography expert.

Zhao Pu was at the window of the carriage on the other side and asked Gongsun, who was hurriedly flipping through the file, "Is there a case in that area?" ”

"I think I just saw it." Gongsun searched for a while, found one, and took it out, "There is one, what a thick file!" ”

"What case?" Zhan Zhao asked curiously.

"Hmm...... It's about the Heavenly Mother eating people. ”

"What is the Heavenly Mother?" Bai Yutang heard about it for the first time.

"Heavenly Mother?"

On the side, Tianzun sat cross-legged on the back of a white camel, and passed by everyone in a particularly graceful manner.

"Have you heard of the Heavenly Mother?" The little fourth son asked.

"The Heavenly Mother is a legendary monster in the sky." Tianzun said, "Take advantage of the snow to eat people in the mortal world." ”

The little fourth son holds his face - it's scared to death!

Gongsun looked at the file, "It's really scary, in the past year, Syracuse City has been eaten by the Heavenly Mother more than 30 people. ”

Zhanzhao's eyes widened, "It's only a few days of snow a year?" Mother's appetite is too good this day, right? ”

"Syracuse's words......" Bai Yutang seemed to have thought of something, and frowned slightly, "White Ghost Villa, is it in Syracuse?" ”

When Zhan Zhao heard this, he frowned, "That's right." ”

"What is White Ghost Villa?" The little fourth son continued to platter his face - how is this place a monster and a ghost, scary!

"The White Ghost Villa is the gate of the rivers and lakes." Although Ouyang is not a person from the rivers and lakes, he has also heard of it, "The owner of the village, Xue Baigui, is said to be a great character, but he has a very strange personality, he doesn't recognize people when he turns his face, and he is not very easy to get along with." ”

Zhan Zhao saw that Bai Yutang seemed to have something on his mind, so he asked, "Do you know?" “

Bai Yutang shook his head, I don't know Xue Baigui, but I know Qin Lisheng, the second owner of Baigui Villa.

"Qin Lisheng?" Zhan Zhao was a little interested when he heard it, "Is it the blind man Qin Lisheng who can't see things, but has super good ears?" ”

Bai Yutang nodded.

"He is more famous than Xue Baigui, it turns out that he is the second owner of Baigui Villa." Zhan Zhao was a little surprised.

"Qin Lisheng once told me something." Bai Yutang said in a tone that was always unhurried and unwarm, "He said that there was something wrong with Xue Baigui, and the White Ghost Villa would have a big mess sooner or later." ”

"What do you mean?" Zhan Zhao was puzzled.

Bai Yutang shook his head, "When he speaks, he is very serious, not like a joke, I don't know the specifics." ”

While speaking, Gongsun probed out, and by the way, dragged the little fourth son lying on the window into the carriage, "That Qin Lisheng is the case he reported to the government." ”

"What?" Everyone was surprised - the people of the rivers and lakes ran to report the crime? The most outrageous report is that the Mother of Heaven eats people?

"It's written here." Gongsun pointed to the file, "A year ago, the person who reported the case was Qin Lisheng!" ”

The author has something to say: This case is over, and the next case is "The Case of Syracuse Heavenly Mother Cannibalism"
