Chapter 0152: Kou Bus
Kou Ji raised his eyebrows and hesitated: "Grandfather is unwilling to enter the palace?" ”
Kou Zhun rolled his eyes, stared at Kou Ji with slanted eyes, and said quietly: "The official family summoned, the old man is not easy to refuse...... Why don't you go in place of the old man? ”
Kou Ji tugged at the corners of his mouth and said with a dry smile: "How can my grandson have that qualification......"
Kou Zhun smacked his lips and said without being salty or light: "You are the grandson of the old man, the old man is inconvenient, and it is very suitable for you to come forward." ”
Kou Ji pouted, "At this time, if your grandson enters the palace instead of you, the official family will probably find someone to beat your grandson out of the house." ”
Kou Zhun snorted, "Even if you still know the severity...... You still don't send the things for the old man? ”
Kou Ji raised his eyebrows and said in amazement: "You know this? ”
Kou Zhun said disdainfully: "Is there anything in the house that can be hidden from the old man?" ”
Kou Ji smiled dryly, "Grandson knows that grandfather will enter the palace sooner or later, so he specially asked the craftsman in the mansion to make a small thing, originally to surprise grandfather and you." Now that you know it, there's no need for your grandson to hide it. ”
After saying this, Kou Ji turned around, walked to the door of the room, and instructed Kou Zhong, who was waiting outside the door: "Go to the craftsman's warehouse in the mansion and let the craftsmen send me what I want." ”
Kou Zhong nodded and left the courtyard.
Not long after, the craftsmen of the mansion, under the leadership of Kou Zhong, pushed a small wooden cart and appeared in the courtyard.
The shape of the small wooden car is very chic, like a wheelchair in later generations.
The small wooden cart is made of nanmu wood, connected by iron nails, much larger than ordinary wheelchairs, the wheels are four feet high, and the place where people sit and the backrest are wrapped in three layers of tiger skin, which is very soft.
The reason why Kou Ji asked the craftsmen to make the wheelchair so big was also to make it easier for Kou Zhun to talk to people condescendingly.
With Kou Zhun's identity, it would be inappropriate for him to be a head shorter than a person when he was sitting.
Kou Ji's purpose for making this wheelchair is also to facilitate Kou Zhun to go out of the house.
Liu E and Ding Wei thought that after Kou Zhun was sick in bed, there would be no way to leave the mansion, and they could toss things in the court as much as they wanted.
But Ko Ji didn't let them get their way.
Although traveling in a wheelchair is not very elegant. can be Kou Zhun's status, who is qualified to make irresponsible remarks on this?
Kou Ji didn't take out this thing before, because the time was not ripe, and Kou Zhun was not suitable to appear in the court.
If Kou Zhun hadn't been sick for a while, many people who had taken refuge in Liu E and Ding Wei behind their backs would not have jumped out.
Now that these people have all jumped out, it's time for Kou Zhun to come out again.
The small wooden cart was pushed by two people and arrived in front of Kou Zhun's bedroom.
Kou Zhun immediately summoned someone and carried him into a small wooden cart.
Although he had sat in the back once the first time the craftsmen had made this thing according to Kou Ji's instructions, he still pretended to be sitting for the first time in front of Kou Ji.
After he sat down in the small wooden cart, he let the servants of the house push him around the courtyard.
From time to time, he let out a sound of admiration, admiring the little wooden car, and also admiring Kou Ji's filial piety.
It wasn't until Kou Zhun sat in a small wooden cart and wandered around the yard for a while that he spoke: "It's time for the old man to go and see Zhou Huaizheng...... I'm afraid he's in a hurry......"
Kou Zhun looked at Kou Ji and said with a smile: "For the sake of your filial piety, the old man will take you to listen to what Zhou Huaizheng will say." ”
Although Kou Ji had already guessed what Zhou Huaizheng would say, he still pretended to be very interested and said, "Then the grandson is better to be respectful than to obey his fate." ”
"You are pushing the old man......"
"Hmmm......"
Kou Ji stepped forward, took the small wooden cart from the servant's hand, and prepared to push Kou Zhun out of the courtyard.
It was only after he carried the small wooden cart with his hand that he exerted a lot of strength, and the small wooden cart he pushed slowly moved forward a few steps.
"So heavy?"
Kou Ji looked stunned.
Although he asked the craftsmen to make this thing, and the drawings were also made by him, he never pushed it.
He didn't expect a wheelchair made of solid wood to be so heavy and so difficult to push.
After thinking about it carefully, he felt that the problem was probably not only the problem of solid wood, but also related to the bearing, and also related to his request to make the wheelchair larger.
"Can't push?"
Kou Zhun saw the small wooden cart slowly moving forward, so he asked with a playful smile.
Kou Ji agreed with a dry smile.
Kou Zhun grinned and said, "Your strength still needs to be honed." When the old man is your age, he can carry this thing. ”
Kou Ji smiled dryly and didn't say anything.
Kou Zhun smiled: "Okay, you just follow the old man and let the others push." ”
Koji nodded and stepped aside.
The servants of the Kou Mansion stepped up, pushed the small wooden cart, and walked towards the side hall.
Crossing multiple gates along the way, Kou Ji discovered a problem.
When encountering a threshold portal, the small wooden cart needs to be carried by several people to pass.
Seeing this situation, Kou Ji immediately called Kou Zhong aside and ordered: "Go back to the servants in the mansion and see off all the thresholds in the mansion." ”
When Kou Zhong heard this, he almost didn't pop his eyes out.
Kou Ji looked puzzled, "Got a problem?" ”
Kou Zhong smiled bitterly and said, "Little young master...... In this Bianjing City, only the poor families have no threshold. ”
Kou Ji opened his mouth, not knowing what to say.
Kou Zhun heard the conversation between the two of them, and smiled indifferently: "Just listen to Kou Ji's ......"
Kou Zhong was puzzled: "But the master...... Without the threshold, others will laugh at our house. ”
Kou Zhun grinned and said: "Let them laugh at jokes, but while they are laughing at Kou Mansion, they will also help spread the praises of Ji'er's filial piety." Compared with Ji'er's filial piety, that little joke is insignificant. ”
When Kou Zhong heard this, he was stunned for a moment, and then hurriedly urged Kou Ji to say, "Little master, don't you hurry up and thank the master." Master is using his own face to help you pave the way. ”
Kou Zhong could hear the deep meaning of Kou Zhun's words, and Kou Ji could naturally hear it too.
Kou Ji bowed to Kou Zhun and said frankly: "Grandfather, you don't have to wronged yourself for the sake of your grandson. ”
Kou Zhun shook his head and said with emotion: "The old man can do nothing for you now, there are not many ......"
Kou Ji opened his mouth and wanted to speak, but was stopped by Kou Zhun raising his hand, and he said without refusal: "Listen to the old man, if this matter spreads, it will only be good for you, and there will be no harm." ”
Kou Ji felt Kou Zhun's intention and nodded heavily.
While speaking, the group arrived outside the side hall.
Kou Zhun had people push him into the side hall.
Zhou Huaizheng was anxiously turning around inside, saw Kou Zhun, and hurriedly greeted him.
"Kou Xiang, why bother you to come and see you in person."
Kou Zhun rushed over to see him, which really flattered him.
Although he is Zhao Heng's personal eunuch, his identity has always been a slave, and he is not qualified to discuss his status with Kou Zhun.
When he arrived at Kou Mansion on weekdays, he took the initiative to come to Kou Zhun to ask for a meeting.
Kou Zhun didn't take the initiative to see him.
Now that Kou Zhun is seriously ill and bedridden, he suddenly came forward to greet him in person, and he was naturally a little flattered.
When Kou Zhun heard this, he smiled indifferently: "You bring the official family's message, and the old man should come out to see you in person." ”
When Zhou Huaizheng heard this, he grinned and said, "Kou Xiang's words are serious. ”
After laughing, he saw the small wooden cart under Kou Zhun, and suddenly lost his voice: "What is this?" ”
Kou Zhun said with a bright smile: "This thing was made by the old man's grandson and honored the old man." He saw that the old man had been lying on the bed, and he couldn't bear it. I meditated hard and made this thing.
If it weren't for this, I'm afraid the old man wouldn't be able to come out to see you. ”
Zhou Huaizheng looked at the small wooden cart carefully, his eyes lit up and said, "This is a good thing." With this thing, Kou Xiangke is like a tiger with wings. Before coming, the slave maid was still worried about Kou Xiang's health, afraid that Kou Xiang was not in good health and could not bear the heavy responsibilities entrusted by the officials.
Now that she has seen this thing, the slave and maid are a lot more relieved. ”
Kou Zhun smiled: "Whether it's a good thing or not, the old man doesn't know." The old man only knew that Ji Er had a sincere filial piety to the old man. ”
Zhou Huaizheng's eyes stayed on the small wooden cart, and he couldn't pull it out.
While looking at the small wooden car, he said casually: "This is nature, this is nature......
Zhou Huaizheng stared at the small wooden cart for a long time, and resisted the idea of asking Kou Ji for drawings, and said to Kou Zhun: "With the help of Kou Xiang, it will be easy to enter the palace." ”
Kou Zhun asked knowingly, "The official family summoned the old man?" ”
Zhou Huaizheng nodded heavily and said, "The official family has summoned you to the palace for an audience." ”
Kou Zhun asked: "When the old man arrives in the palace, the official family is afraid that they will all sleep, right?" ”
Mentioning this, Zhou Huaizheng gritted his teeth and said in a low voice: "In order to see Kou Xiang, the official family took a pair of tiger and wolf medicine. ”
"Hiss......"
Kou Zhun and Kou Ji gasped when they heard this.
Zhao Heng was not long in life, and now he is still taking tiger and wolf medicine, is this because he didn't die fast enough?
Kou Zhun hurriedly said: "In order to see the old man, did the official family even care about his own body? ”
Zhou Huaizheng lowered his voice intentionally or unintentionally and said: "This shows that the official family summoned you this time, I am afraid that there is something important to discuss......
Kou Zhun raised his eyebrows and asked, "What's the matter?" ”
Zhou Huaizheng shook his head and said solemnly: "The stakes are very high, and the slave doesn't dare to talk much." ”
Kou Zhun glanced at Kou Ji.
Koji shrugged his shoulders.
Zhou Huaizheng was reluctant to say it, and Kou Zhun couldn't tell Kou Ji what he wanted.
His intention of bringing Kou Ji over to listen to the secret was in vain.
"Kou Xiang, quickly follow the slave into the palace."
Zhou Huaizheng hurriedly urged.
Kou Zhun nodded.
Kou Ji hesitated for a moment and said in a low voice: "Grandfather, Father-in-law Zhou, since the matter is very important, you should ask one more person to be a witness." ”
Zhou Huaizheng was stunned for a moment, not knowing why.
Kou Zhun understood the meaning of Kou Ji's words, and he said to Zhou Huaizheng: "The old man enters the palace first, you go to the Li Mansion to invite Li Di, Li Di can be trusted......"
When Zhou Huaizheng heard this, he hesitated for a moment and said, "The official family didn't say that Li Xiang was invited to ......."
Kou Zhun glanced at him and said faintly: "The stakes are very high, if no one witnesses, how can you win the trust of people with just the old man's mouth?" ”
Zhou Huaizheng was stunned for a moment, nodded slowly, and said, "Kou Xiang's words are reasonable. ”
Kou Zhun nodded and said, "You just go and ask Li Di, the official family, there is an old man to help you talk about it." ”
Zhou Huaizheng nodded heavily, "The slave will go now." ”
Zhou Huaizheng immediately left the Kou Mansion and ran to the Li Mansion.
As soon as Zhou Bad was leaving, Kou Zhun sighed, "Official...... Hey......"
Kou Zhun wanted to say that the official family was afraid that he would not live long.
It's just that it's taboo, so he didn't say it.
Kou Ji understood the deep meaning of Kou Zhun's words, and immediately said: "Grandfather, fate is determined by heaven, and no one can change it. What my grandfather can do now is to help the official family to defend the country and the prince to guard the country. ”
Hearing this, Kou Zhun nodded heavily, "The old man has entered the palace......"
Kou Ji arched his hand and said, "Grandfather must remember his grandson's advice. ”
Kou Zhun nodded.
The stakes are high, and he naturally knows how important they are.
Immediately, Kou Zhun asked people to push a small wooden cart and left Kou's mansion and went to the palace.
Kou Ji stayed in the mansion to wait for news.
Just waited for a long time, and before Kou Zhun came back from the palace, Zhao Yuanyan's people came to the door first.
The person who came was Su Chan'er.
Kou Ji met her in the side hall of the Kou Mansion.
When Su Chan'er saw Kou Ji, she opened her mouth and asked, "That Kou bus, can you still build it again?" ”
Kou Ji raised his eyebrows, looking puzzled, "Kou bus? ”
Su Chan'er said anxiously: "It's the Kou bus that has two wheels and can be pushed away." ”
Kou Ji suddenly said, "You're talking about a wheelchair?" What does this thing do, you ask? How do you know about this thing? ”
Su Chan'er said faintly: "It has been spread all over Bianjing City now...... Do you still have to pretend not to know? ”
Kou Ji looked puzzled.
Su Chan'er pouted and said, "Kou Gong sat in Kou's bus and entered the palace all the way from Mahang Street, and the people saw it. The people inquired and knew that you made it for Kou Gong. Now your filial piety has spread all over Bianjing City.
It is said that in order to make it convenient for Kou Gong to travel, you also sawed the threshold of the house.
Now in this Bianjing City, everyone is saying that your filial piety is commendable.
Do you still have to pretend that you don't know? ”
Kou Ji was stunned.
Kou Zhun said that he wanted to help him build momentum and add him a reputation as a filial son and grandson, he thought that this process would take a while, but he didn't expect it to be so fast.
Kou Ji pondered and said, "I see...... So, the name Kou Bus was given by the people? ”
Su Chan'er looked at Kou Ji with disdain.
She felt that Kou Ji was pretending to her.
Seeing Su Chan'er's disdain, Kou Ji knew that Su Chan'er had misunderstood him, and he didn't explain, but asked, "You rushed to Kou's Mansion in such a hurry just for Kou's bus?" ”
Su Chan'er glanced at him and pouted, "It's not me who wants it, it's our host." ”
Kou Ji was stunned and said, "He is also paralyzed? ”
Su Chan'er glared and said angrily: "You are paralyzed." ”
Kou Ji looked her up and down, and teased: "Not only have you lost your temper, but you are also quite protective of the lord." It seems that your new owner is very good to you and values you very much. How dare you talk to me like that? ”
Su Chan'er snorted twice and did not speak.
Kou Ji didn't bother to continue chatting with her, and said casually: "Go back and tell your owner, in another ten days and half a month, I will give him the drawings." ”
Su Chan'er was stunned and said, "Why not now?" ”
Kou Ji rolled his eyes, "I'll give it to him now, does he dare to use it?" Do you know what it means to avoid suspicion? The things that just came out of the Kou Mansion immediately appeared on your new owner's mansion, doesn't this tell others that there is a connection between our two families behind their backs? ”
