(Chapter 81) Jiangnan Smoke and Rain (31)
"There is indeed something wrong, but this is the case, and the lower officials are helpless." Jia Chundao,
"Could it be that they use these poisons to deal with those who do not listen to them, and those who listen to them, they give them some good?" Jia Xin, who had been sitting at the bottom and was silent, opened his mouth.
"Presumptuous!" Jia Chun scolded with a dark face: "Xin'er, doesn't you want to punish copying books again?" Talking to Lord Shen Xiang for your father, how can you interject without rules? ”
I smiled to stop Jia Chun's reprimand, and said, "Ruzi's guess really makes some sense, maybe the truth is really as he guessed, Master Jia must not blame anymore, the original appearance does not mean to blame." ”
"Your Excellency smiled." Jia Chun didn't want to punish Jia Xin, but he was just worried that there would be trouble, "The dog is just a stubborn toddler, how can he listen to what he says?" Not to mention how many years it took for them to threaten so many officials, even in these months, no Jiangnan official died because of poison. ”
I smiled, "It's still Master Jia who is thoughtful." ”
Jia Chun heard what I was saying, but he only smiled at what I said, and didn't say anything else.
Seeing that he didn't say anything, I could only pick it out.
"I heard Lingzi mention 'condensation branches' and 'pawnshops of life and death' that day, I don't know what these 'condensation branches' and 'pawnshops of life and death' mean?" I asked with a smile.
Jia Chun glanced at me and replied, "Ningzhi is the antidote to the poison found out by the lower officials, and the pawnshop of life and death is the place where the lower officials find out that the gang is frequented, and the lower officials guess that maybe the condensation branches will be among them." ”
I pretended to be thinking, nodded and said, "Master Jia's guess is reasonable, according to the facts, since we have found their stronghold, why don't we send troops to surround the pawnshop of life and death and search carefully?" There may be a new clue, even if the antidote is found. ”
Jia Chun looked at me suddenly, his eyes flashed with surprise, as if he didn't expect me to do this, but he quickly regained his calm expression and said to me, "If the Prime Minister is determined to do this, the lower officials will give me full support." ”
Today, in addition to testing him, I asked him to prepare for the raid of the pawnshop of life and death, and now that the purpose has been achieved, it is time to leave.
"Master Jia." I stood up and said goodbye, "You are the governor of Jiangnan, and you have the responsibility to protect the safety of one party, and now this kind of thing has happened, although the blame is not all on the adults, but you are also negligent, do you know?" ”
Jia Chun immediately stood up and bowed to me, and said with a guilty face, "Jiangnan is an important place in Qinguo, and the emperor originally trusted the lower officials, so he let the lower officials take charge of this place. ”
I was satisfied with Jia Chun and said kindly, "Lord Jia's personality, the true appearance is naturally clear, this matter of eradicating evil obstacles is very important, tomorrow night, the original appearance will come to discuss with you, remember, do not act without authorization." ”
Jia Chun understood my secret warning, and promised, "The lower officials must remember." ”
Very good.
"That being the case, the prime minister has taken his leave." I laughed, "Adults don't have to go far." ”
With that, I put on the black cloth that I had taken off my sleeve before entering the house, and left through the window.
Jia Chun quietly watched the black shadow leave, the expression on his face did not move, and a pair of deep eyes were illuminated by the moonlight, and the ancient pool was silent.
"Daddy still wants to go back to the study?" Jia Xin broke the silence of the night and raised his eyes to look at Jia Chun.
Jia Chun lowered his head to look at Jia Xin, and saw that his hair was a little messy, so he leaned down to tidy up for him.
"You can sleep with your father today, we father and son haven't talked for a long time."
Jia Xin's eyes lit up, and he immediately hugged Jia Chun's thigh: "Really?" Didn't Daddy say that when a boy is three years old, he should be self-reliant, and he can't be as docile and delicate as his daughter's family? ”
Jia Chun was amused by his words, and hugged him up, "Wu'er is a hero in the world, why worry more!"
Although he was very happy to be praised by Jia Chun in his heart, he still had to get to the bottom of some problems that he couldn't figure out.
"Daddy obviously has a greater reputation in the imperial court than Brother Shen, why does Daddy have to tolerate him in front of Brother Shen in every way?"
Jia Chun put him on the bed, stretched out his hand and began to undress him, while saying, "She is the minister of a country, the commander of hundreds of officials, and she must be respected as a father." ”
Jia Xin felt that this reason was too far-fetched, "But Daddy has never done this to others." ”
"This is the way of officialdom." Jia Chun covered him with a quilt, "The emperor attaches great importance to this junior, besides..." Jia Chun paused for a moment in his hand, shook his head and sighed, "She is a powerful character, and in the next few decades, I am afraid that the government and the opposition will respect her." ”
The turmoil of this Qin country will start with her after all.
Jia Xin agreed with Jia Chun's words. He said to Jia Chun, "Although Brother Shen always looks like she is very good at speaking, she can do it to anyone. Thinking of Scarlet Cherry Forest's experience, he couldn't help but shudder again.
Jia Chun smiled and touched his head, "Those who have achieved great things should have such courage." ”
Jia Xin blinked, "If there is a person I can't relent, can Daddy tell the child what to do?" ”
Jia Chun was stunned for a moment, looked at Jia Xin thoughtfully, and thought for a while, "If there really is such a person, you will marry her home." "Sweet potato
The blush crawled up his cheeks, and Jia Xin was so ashamed that he immediately got into the quilt and didn't dare to come out again.
Jia Chun looked at Jia Xin like this, his heart was clear, and the second half of the sentence was swallowed back by him.
Anyway, the road has to be walked on his own, he is still young, who can say for sure what will happen in the future?
Through the guards, I crept to the wall where I came. I was about to turn out unconsciously, but I didn't expect an eerie voice to suddenly appear behind me, which scared me into a spirit, and I used all my strength to climb over the wall directly, spreading my legs and preparing to rush forward.
"You go one more step and try it!" The sound of gnashing of teeth came from the wall, as if trying to swallow me alive.
As soon as I stopped, I looked back at him with a smile on my face.
"What a coincidence, you're there too."
Gu Yuancheng squinted his eyes and jumped down from the wall with a cold face.
"Why haven't you left yet?" I was cheeky and pretended to be puzzled.
Gu Yuancheng's side face turned paler in the moonlight, but the eyes in his eyes were furious when he looked at me, almost burning me inside and out.
"Shen Qingzhi, it seems that I am too good to you, so you dare to tease me like this!"
Gu Yuancheng approached me step by step, I hurriedly stepped back, and smiled as I retreated, "Gu Yuancheng, you calm down first, don't be impulsive!"
Gu Yuancheng stared at me hatefully, but a strange smile appeared on his face, "If someone uses you as a tool, and then only cares about running by himself after finishing the matter, and doesn't even think about the situation of that tool, will you be impulsive?" Well? ”
"Yes...... Is there such an exaggeration...... "I laughed dryly, but I didn't stop walking, so I ran away when the situation was wrong."
"I said okay to let me come with you, but you forced me to stay in the weeds, you are a good plan, what, I can't listen to these dirty things in your Qin country?" Gu Yuancheng was extremely angry, he was ruthless in his mouth, and he couldn't bear the mean words anymore.
Since he came to this place, he has endured Shen Qingzhi again and again, he has constantly numbed himself, kept making excuses for her behavior, and kept telling himself that the gentleman acts with generosity, and the prime minister walks with wisdom, treating Shen Qingzhi as an unreasonable person with a bad stomach, he can only brake with silence and surprise him, and he has another thing to do when he comes to Qinguo, so he has to let Shen Qingzhi help, now is not the time to offend her.
But now he can't take it anymore!
This is simply his own abuse, okay?
Gu Yuancheng scolded, and the height rose directly to the face of Qinguo, although I felt that Fang Cai was a little sorry for him, but I couldn't let him insult his country like this.
At that moment, he no longer retreated, straightened his waist, and said loudly, "How can I come to do dirty things?" Don't think you have a good skin to talk nonsense at night, I don't eat your set! Also, what do you mean that I forced you to lie on your stomach in the haystack? I didn't force you there, I didn't threaten you to stay there, how can you talk nonsense and frame me? ”
Gu Yuancheng is so big, he has never seen such a scoundrel, and the anger in his heart is getting bigger and bigger, and finally he simply does it directly.
He drew the saber in his hand, shook his body, pointed the tip of the sword straight at me, and stabbed me mercilessly.
My body instinctively tried to dodge, but when my afterglow swept over his pale face, I finally gritted my teeth, slammed my eyes shut, and stood still.
Gu Yuancheng's sword was ruthless, although he didn't aim at my death hole, but when the long sword pierced into my body, I was still forced to take a step back by his strength.
My consciousness was blurred for a moment from the tremendous pain that struck me, but when I woke up, I would rather pass out just now.
It hurts, too!
"It's so ruthless......"
Gu Yuancheng held the hilt of the sword in a daze, and looked at me in disbelief, "Why don't you hide?" ”
I took a deep breath of the cool air of the night, held back the severe pain and reminded him, "Do you want to draw your sword and leave, or abandon your sword and leave, please decide quickly, I am still waiting to find someone to save my life." ”
Gu Yuancheng listened to my words and was so angry that he had nothing to say.
Releasing the hilt of his sword, he strode forward, turning around and picking me up by the waist.
I was startled at first, and then struggled violently, scolding as I struggled, "Gu Yuancheng, you bastard!" Put me down! Do you have a dragon yang fetish? Or is it better to have broken sleeves? I warn you, if you don't let me down, I'm going to be rude to you!"
Gu Yuancheng had a cold face and increased his strength to hold me. He looked at the blood on my body, and his eyes sank into the dark night for a moment.
"You'd better not move, or I'll plunge that sword into your throat and settle the debt between us!"
With that, he moved quickly, and in the blink of an eye, he disappeared into the night with me in his arms.
