Chapter 703: The Wisher Takes the Bait

One person said that Zhu Dagongzi was seriously injured and dying, Ah Liu only frowned slightly, and three or five people said that he was only a little suspicious, but along the way, he heard a lot of such arguments, and even some people described the style of the crossbow and arrow.

Thinking that Zhang Shou's car was not like the emperor's micro-clothes in the palace, it was lined with steel plates as protection, and when he thought that Zhang Shou was now on the side of the public school, he didn't know if the people who protected him were doing his best, so he almost wanted to turn the horse back. Fortunately, he still remembered that the four princes were also in the public school, and there were always a large number of people in the vicinity of the Nancheng Soldiers and Horses Division and the imperial attendants, so he couldn't hold back.

But even so, at first, he was just trotting his horse, and although he did not break the prohibition of galloping, he shuttled nimbly among the carriages and horses in the middle of the avenue, and in a short time left many carriages and horses behind. Although there were many people who didn't know him, there were also some people who recognized him, and there were more discussions of all kinds for a while.

When Ah Liu finally arrived in front of the Zhao Guogong Mansion, he saw the orderly gatehouses in the past, but at this time, they were as messy as ants on a hot pot, and he didn't notice when he dismounted. It wasn't until he himself led his horse forward that no one recognized him, and hurriedly stepped forward to take the reins.

"Sixth brother, how did you get here? Did Shou Gongzi ask you to visit the eldest prince? It's simply lawless, and someone actually stabbed the eldest prince with a crossbow in broad daylight......"

One by one they were so verbose, Ah Liu was really too lazy to listen, threw down the reins and stepped inside, and after entering the door, he even disliked walking fast and was still too slow, so he simply carried the four-color tonic and ran wildly.

He is a person who often comes and goes, others are surprised when they see this gust of wind blowing by him, but they will not stop him, and he is also very familiar with the layout of the Zhu family in the Zhao Guogong Mansion - except for Zhu Ying and Jiu Niang's courtyard, he has never entered, and he has been led by people everywhere else, so he is familiar with it by heart.

Therefore, after an instant, he stopped outside the gate of Zhu Tingfang's Haoran residence. The little guy who was waiting in front of the door just blinked his eyes, and suddenly there was such a person in front of him, so frightened that he almost lost his voice and exclaimed, but fortunately, he recognized that it was Ah Liu, and then he quickly covered his mouth.

Ah Liu glanced at the person, and saw that the other party didn't mean to stop him, so he walked directly inside. As he got closer to the main house, he sniffed suddenly, and found that it was a pungent smell of medicine, and several of the smells were obviously drugs to stop bleeding and build muscles, and his brow furrowed even more.

And as soon as Zhu Yi, who was guarding in front of the door, saw Ah Liu getting closer and closer, he couldn't help but chuckle in his heart, and hurriedly reported loudly: "Eldest son, the sixth brother of Shou Gongzi's family is here!" ”

"Let him in."

Hearing that it was Mrs. Tai's voice inside, Ah Liu saw Zhu Yina's expression frozen on his face, so he walked inside quickly regardless of the person. When he crossed the threshold and entered, he walked briskly, squinting his eyes and glancing around quickly.

I saw that this was still the pattern of the last time I came, the huge three rooms were not separated, in the middle was the red sandalwood case, a pair of swords hung on the west wall, and there were no expensive furnishings on the Bogu shelves on both sides, but they were full of layers of books. On the east wall is a black lacquer carved stepping bed, and Mrs. Tai sits on a Taishi chair next to the bed, and on the Jindun next to it, she sits with Jiuniang.

As for Zhu Er, he was sitting at the end of the bed. All in all, a family of three looks like they are visiting the injured.

However, Zhu Tingfang, the injured and sick man who was supposed to be sitting or lying on the bed, was completely missing at this time! Even if Ah Liu fixed his eyes and glanced at the bed several times, he couldn't find any trace of Zhu Tingfang hereβ€”although the quilt seemed to be bulging up, as if a person was sleeping with his head covered, but how could this hide from him?

Because of this, when he stepped forward with the four-color tonic, he couldn't help but ask a little confusedly, "What about the eldest prince?" ”

Mrs. Tai has always liked the honest Ah Liu, and at this time she suddenly smiled: "I didn't expect me and them to be the first to come to the door to detect injuries!" Look at you like this, what did you even spend money to buy? Show me! ”

Seeing that Mrs. Tai didn't answer her words, but asked him, Ah Liu hesitated for a moment, but finally handed over the things in his hand directly. Jiuniang took it on her behalf, and opened the package one by one in front of Mrs. Tai for people to see, and then quipped: "Mother, you see, a wild ginseng full of vintage, Wen Sanqi from Yunnan, and such a big Ganoderma lucidum......"

Mrs. Tai smiled as she watched her daughter-in-law show her the four-colored tonic to her, and then suddenly asked, "Ah Liu, did Ah Shou ask you to buy these things?" Or did you pick it yourself? ”

"Young master, let me decide for myself." Ah Liu honestly confessed, thinking that he could be brief to others, but he had to make it clear to the Zhu family, so he added, "I found the most famous pharmacy in the outer city of my home, and asked people to prepare the best four-color tonics." The shopkeeper asked me if I wanted the treasure of the town store, and of course I said yes. Anyway, if the eldest prince is injured, it is right to make up for it. ”

Really...... Mrs. Tai and Jiuniang glanced at each other and couldn't help but smile.

And Zhu Er endured and endured, and finally couldn't help but complain at this time: "I said sixth brother, didn't you think that you rushed to buy supplements in such a hurry, would others think that my eldest brother was injured and was about to die?" Besides, these things may indeed be first-class precious things to the trading house, but our family ...... No, it's you Zhang Yuan too! ”

Seeing Ah Liu's unprecedented slight stunned, Zhu Er, who had never had the upper hand over Ah Liu, suddenly perked up: "Really, I don't lie to you!" Don't you know that because her brother-in-law has been weak since she was a child, Yingying has sent supplements several times? Moreover, I heard that when my brother-in-law and you were in the village, my grandmother also asked people to send medicinal supplements. That's the best treasure ever......"

Before he could finish his words, he suddenly felt a pain in his head, and he covered his head and screamed. Seeing that it was Jiu Niang standing in front of him with a thin face at some point, he immediately shut up and smiled at his stepmother as if flattering.

"Ah Liudai Ah Shou came to see your eldest brother, he was kind, where did you come from so many words?" After training Zhu Er, Jiu Niang said with a smile, "It is said that thousands of miles to send goose feathers is a light courtesy, not to mention that you sent such a valuable thing over?" As for what Erlang just said, others would think that Dalang was seriously injured...... Hehe, you've seen that right now. ”

"The family was supposed to announce that he was safe and sound, and we were all gathered here to deal with the people who came to check for the sick...... Just to make people feel that Da Lang is seriously injured. So, you're doing it right. ”

"Really?" Ah Liu asked, and lowered his head embarrassedly, "I'm sorry, it's all my momentary negligence." ”

"It's okay, Ah Liu, you are also kind. I thought you would buy out other people's pharmacies, but I didn't expect you to only buy four things, which is already very modest. It's not that I don't know, you, like Ah Shou, have always been diligent and thrifty, and this time you went to someone and said that you wanted the best, and you didn't even pay back the price, which is also a matter of concern. Actually......"

Mrs. Tai paused for a moment and said casually: "Actually, I also secretly sent several groups of people to the Qin State Mansion, the Weinan Bo Mansion and even the Jiangdu Wangfu to ask for the old ginseng that should be of the year. Although I told these people to go and come back quickly, and be sure to keep quiet, but I can't help but show a little bit of wind when I think about it, so when you come in, you should see the nervous looks of the other people in the family, right? ”

Comprehending the meaning of Mrs. Tai's suspicious array, Ah Liu couldn't help frowning suspiciously: "But even if the assassin has a fellow party, after hearing this news, he will not dare to come to the Zhao Guogong Mansion, right?" ”

Zhu Er forgot the lesson just now, and couldn't help but interject again: "Assassins are not so bold, but there must be someone who has bad intentions towards my eldest brother!" My eldest brother has integrated the Five Cities Terracotta Division with an iron fist, and now he doesn't know how many people are salivating in this position, and there must be countless people who want him to die and be crippled...... Ouch, mother, don't beat him, I'm really not cursing him, I don't dare! ”

Seeing that Zhu Er was wronged by Jiu Niang's knock on the head, Ah Liu retracted his gaze with a slanted glance, and then said again: "But what if others are not fooled?" ”

Mrs. Tai understood the half of what Ah Liu didn't say, and immediately said with a smile: "Do you want to ask, if that assassin makes a move, he should only have a chance to shoot an arrow, and the onlookers should be able to see the truth of the matter clearly, how can there be rumors that Da Lang is seriously injured all over the street?" ”

Seeing that Ah Liu nodded, at this time, Jiu Niang said: "Because the second prince's scholar was caught when it was almost dawn, it was still early when Da Lang went out, and there was no one on the road outside. ”

Can it still be like this? Sure enough, there is money that can make the devil grind!

Ah Liu thought so in his heart, but asked in his mouth, "Then do you want me to help?" ”

Without waiting for his grandmother and stepmother to answer, Zhu Er hurriedly said: "No, no, there are so many people in Zhao Guogong's Mansion, but you are the only one by your brother-in-law's side, how can you be busy for him again?" Besides, the eldest brother walked quietly from the secret passage, bringing several of the most powerful people, and God knows where he is waiting for a thunderous blow at this time, and you can't find him! ”

Seeing Ah Liu's unconvinced expression, Zhu Er knew that he had said the wrong thing, and hurriedly remedied: "Besides, it is very unreasonable for the assassin to assassinate the eldest brother, what does the matter of the eldest prince have to do with the eldest brother, you have to prevent him from attacking the west......"

Before he finished speaking, he saw Ah Liu suddenly turn around and walk out, obviously to prevent the sound of people from attacking Zhang Shou, Zhu Er hurriedly reminded again: "Brother-in-law, you don't have to worry too much, I don't know how many people are staring at it!" But Yingying may be leaving the palace when she learns the news at this time......"

"I'm going to pick up the eldest lady!" Ah Liu interrupted Zhu Er, and after saying this undoubtedly, he had already arrived at the door, and immediately dropped a sentence without looking back.

"When I send her back, I'll go to the young master!"

Seeing that people flew and disappeared outside the door, Mrs. Tai and Jiuniang couldn't help but laugh, and Zhu Er wiped the sweat on his forehead, and then smiled at his grandmother and stepmother as if flattering: "Now grandmother and mother don't have to worry about Yingying, if he goes out alone, it is really worthy of dozens of others." In case Yingying hears that the matter of the eldest brother is messed up, there are still people who are holding ......"

"Are you sure Ah Liu can hold down Yingying, not Yingying directing him around?" Jiuniang asked with a smile, and when she saw Zhu Erdeng, she was dumbfounded, and then she covered her face and sighed, and then she said with a smile, "Erlang, your eldest brother is not here, we have released such a rumor again, since there is the first flaw detector, it is difficult to guarantee that there will be a second and a third next." So ......"

"Change your clothes and sacrifice yourself. Even if others find out, they won't go back and muttered that our family is too sloppy. ”

Suddenly understood the meaning of his stepmother's words, Zhu Erdeng's eyes widened, and then he stammered even when he spoke: "Mother, you mean...... Is that to say...... Let me...... I'm pretending to be Big Brother? ”

Mrs. Tai immediately laughed too. She stood up, and immediately looked condescendingly at Zhu Er, who was already wooden at the end of the bed, and said thoughtfully: "If it weren't for your mother's reminder, I wouldn't have seen that Erlang, you are actually quite similar to your eldest brother." ”

Like a ghost! Growing up, you all said I wasn't like him! Even when he lies in bed, he looks like a young hero who cannot be humiliated, and even if I put on armor, I only look like a deserter! Why do you fool us about what we look like now? Zhu Erzheng felt sad and helpless, but he didn't expect his grandmother to come forward and gently rub his head like when she was a child.

"With such a hard-working big brother, you have been under a lot of pressure since you were a child. Finally, you have a good temperament, and now that you have found a way to the future, your parents don't have to worry anymore. I ordered people to search the grange before, and found a few old farmers with simple personalities but still knew some words, and asked them to follow you to Cangzhou. ”

When she saw Zhu Erdeng, she was surprised and delighted, and Mrs. Tai said calmly: "I have praised the emperor before that you are finally sensible, and the emperor said that you just have to try your best to collect seeds from overseas and carry out various selection and cultivation experiments. ”

"Grandmother, this is ...... It's true? Zhu Er was so surprised that he couldn't even close his mouth, but when he saw his grandmother bowing slightly, he couldn't help but be overjoyed knowing that people have always had a temper that never spoke lightly.

Although he was not so reluctant to lie in bed and pretend to be injured, he still made up his mind, and immediately looked at his stepmother with a kind of tragedy like going to the Dharma field and said, "Mother, I have figured it out, the eldest brother's business is my business, what to do, you command!" ”

Jiuniang caught a glimpse of the coldness on Mrs. Tai's face, and remembered that when Zhu Tingfang came back, she found out the danger at that time from the mouth of her entourage, and she said with a smile: "You just need to pretend to be asleep." The so-called fishing, of course, is the willing person to take the bait! ”
