Chapter 528: Fruit is good
"Sister Li, how much do you know about Grandpa Guo?" Song Zheng calmed down from his astonishment and asked in a deep voice (the latest chapter of the Chronicles of the Transformation Girl).
Seeing Song Zheng's grim face, Li Hongniang hurriedly said, "Xiaolang, did you let Ding Long do something secret?" β
Song Zheng nodded lightly, "I worked hard to train them for half a year. They were just sent out recently, and if you do the math, they should be back tomorrow. It's just that I didn't expect to raise a white-eyed wolf. β
"Brother Ding won't have any problems?" Ser's eyes widened in disbelief. In the past six months, she and Ming'er have often trained with Ding Long, and Ding Long is quite eloquent, so they have a very good relationship.
"Yes, Rong Guogong has always had a good reputation. I remember ......," Ming'er paused, "I remember hearing that the Duke of Rongguo was good and good, and had an excellent reputation among the people. Legend on the street says that there are two good people in Jiangning City, the official is Guogong, and the people are Jiang Yuan. Except for a grandson who is not angry, Grandpa Guo is fine. Ding Long probably won't be that kind of person! β
"What do you know!" Song Zheng said coloredly, and found that his tone was a little heavy, so he eased up, "How is Grandpa Guo, I don't know." But the Jiang Dashan you mentioned is the brother of Jiang Kui, the deputy commander of our Imperial City Division. Jiang Lin, who had tried to harm people, was the son of this person. β
"Jiang Lin is Jiang Lin, and his father is his father. It may be possible to grow crooked seedlings in good ground. Ming'er muttered quietly. Song Zheng rarely spoke to him in such a stern tone, and Ming'er was a little unconvinced.
Li Hongniang gently pulled Ming'er and signaled Ming'er not to say any more. Whoever this thing rests on will feel like a thorn. Especially Song Zheng spent so much effort to train Ding Long and other twenty people. Now it is found that Ding Long actually has a connection with Grandpa Guo behind his back, regardless of whether Ding Long has malicious intent or not, Song Zheng does not allow it. Ming'er and Se'er are young girls after all, and they are a little more emotional about the problem, but they don't understand the harm.
Song Zheng glanced at Ming'er and touched Ming'er's head lovingly. Ming'er turned her head to dodge, obviously still angry in her heart. Shook his head helplessly, "After Jiang Lin was crippled by me, he was still unwilling. Not long ago, he used a huge amount of money to invite a man named Wang Ji, who was specifically to deal with me, but he hadn't found a chance yet. Didn't he earn all that money himself? β
"Wang Ji!" Li Hongniang screamed.
"Who is Wang Ji? Isn't it amazing? Ser asked, confused.
Li Hongniang glanced at Song Zheng and explained, "It's a Jiangyang thief with a very high kung fu. I once challenged one of the four masters, Mad Zen, and I heard that it was a pity. β
"The Four Masters?" Ser was puzzled again.
Ming'er took the initiative to explain, she had heard the relevant story from Li Hongniang, "It is the current martial arts known as the four people with the highest kung fu, Li Yuanzhen, who injured Sister Li last time, is the crazy camel among the four masters." β
"Yikes! Isn't this Wang Ji very powerful? "Regarding Li Hongniang's injury, although Ser Er didn't know the detailed process, she knew that the opponent was a very terrifying guy.
"In the last two days, you rearranged the traps on the walls around our house, and asked Erhei and Huzi to strengthen patrols, just to deal with Wang Ji? Why didn't you tell me? Ming'er asked anxiously.
"Not exactly." Song Zheng explained, "The undercurrent in Jiangning City is surging, maybe there will be some big guys who don't like us and use yin stumbling, so we naturally have to be careful." and not to tell you, so that you may not be troubled. β
"So we don't have to worry!" Li Hongniang was also a little anxious, "In case something happens to the Song Mansion, what should we do?" β
Li Hongniang was in a hurry, and actually used "we", obviously, she already regarded herself as one of Song Zheng's women.
"You don't have to worry too much, the first thing Jiang Lin has to deal with is me, and my father still doesn't dare to move for a while." Also, with Song Jue's high status as a great Confucian in the world, few people are willing to risk the world's disapproval to deliberately deal with the Song Mansion. The point is that the impact is too great, and the gains outweigh the losses (read the full text in the Great Colonial Era). Of course, dealing with Song Zheng is another matter.
"That's not to be taken lightly." Li Hongniang said, "I took out a few people when I turned around and looked closely around the Song Mansion. β
After a pause, Li Hongniang said, "The key now is how to get rid of Wang Ji, but this guy doesn't know where to hide." β
Song Zheng knew that Li Hongniang was looking for Song Zheng's source. However, whether to tell Li Hongniang about his relationship with Mu Yu, Song Zheng has not made up his mind yet. So, Song Zheng said, "I also heard such a news, and the details are not clear." Wang Ji's matter involved Jiang Deputy Dutong, and it was not so easy to handle for a while. In Jiangning City, there are only a handful of people who can deal with Wang Ji. So, it's a tricky thing, and I don't have the energy to think about it right now. β
"Well, you have to warm up the book with peace of mind and prepare for Dabi. In this way, I asked people to inquire about Wang Ji's news first, and in addition, I asked Brother Ying to think of a way. You should also be careful and try not to act alone, so as not to give people a chance to take advantage of it. β
In Li Hongniang's opinion, the only one who can deal with Wang Ji is Yingji. Red Tiger's whereabouts are ethereal and her personality is unique, so Li Hongniang naturally doesn't dare to work her.
"Sister, don't send someone to inquire about Wang Ji's affairs first, after all, Jiang Kui is involved, and if you are not careful, you will be startled. Wang Ji is a mysterious Jiang Yang thief, he didn't plan in detail, and it would be difficult to find him again, so don't look for it on Brother Ying's side first. He is the side of the prince, and even if he is told, he can't get out. For now, it's just a matter of taking precautions. β
Li Hongniang knew that Song Zheng was right, so she had to nod.
"Just now I talked about Grandpa Guo, sister, you tell me about it. I have read the record of Taizu, which only mentions one or two sentences, recording that Rong Guogong once participated in the war against Jin and was promoted to a general because of his merits. Some of the later ones are not clear. β
"Oh, speaking of which, more than ten years ago, Rong Guogong was the second most important figure in the army after the marshal Han Zhong." Li Hongniang said, "The father of Rongguo Gong Xiaotong is Taizu's younger brother Xiaohu, who died in the chaos in the early years, leaving only Xiaotong alone, and Taizu has a lot of love for Xiaotong. However, Xiaotong is also very competitive, and he has been determined to avenge his father since he was a child. At the end of the Jinqi War, he joined the army and made some military exploits (the latest chapter of the Dungeon Sword Master's Otherworldly Horizontal). Before Taizu died, Zeng entrusted Taizong to take care of it. Therefore, the status of Xiaotong is getting higher and higher. When Supreme Emperor ascended the throne, he was already the secretary of the military department and the commander of the city guard, and his status was only under Han Zhong, the commander of the actual commander. Taizong also has two brothers, King Lu and King Dian, who died at the beginning of this year, but they have no real power. So I also left the gossip that 'two kings are not as good as one prince'. β
Ming'er carefully brought a cup of tea to Li Hongniang and asked her to continue.
"During the Gaozong period, the status of the prince was getting higher and higher, and he didn't deal with the handsome Han Zhong very well. Not only Han Zhong, but also old ministers like Xiao Tong...... "Li Hongniang paused, "In the seventh year of Gaozong, Xiao Tong resigned from the position of the secretary of the military department and the commander of the city guard. The prince took over as the secretary of the military department, and the position of the city guard was taken over by another veteran, Yang Shaobei. Yang Saobei died of illness within a few years, and after a few years, his son Yang Zhen took over as the commander of the city guard. During this period, the prince concurrently served as the commander of the imperial city. After the current saint ascended the throne, the prince received the title of captain again. β
"As for Xiao Tong, after resigning from the military, he was transferred to the post of Yin of Jiangning Mansion and the secretary of the Criminal Department. At the end of the fourteenth year of Gaozong, Xiao Tong resigned from his political post and became the grandfather of the country. He has served in military and political positions, and his prestige is extremely high. King Lu and King Dian also have several sons, and they are also princes of the country, but they can't be compared with Xiaotong at all. Therefore, when it comes to Grandpa Guo, everyone knows that it refers to Xiaotong. It's like when you talk about the prince, you know who you are referring to. β
Song Zheng lowered his head and groaned, this Xiaotong is really a character. The new forces in the army, led by Xiao Hui, began to attack the old ministers, and Xiao Tong took the initiative to give way. And when there were signs of a coup d'Γ©tat in the last years of Gaozong, he decisively broke away from the political arena and left himself unscathed. In contrast, although Han Zhong's prestige is above that of Xiaotong, his political wisdom is inferior. occupied a high position, fell in love with the stack, and finally died in prison.
Is it just a matter of seeking good fortune and avoiding harm? The matter of Ah Furong and Ding Long, who were dedicated to Gaozong, made Song Zheng feel that there was something hidden in Xiao Tong. Song Zheng had a hunch that the hibiscus that Huang Song gave to Huang Yue's mother Bao Yiqing should also come from the Guogong Mansion. If this is confirmed, then there must be something that Xiao Tong is plotting.
Song Zheng couldn't help but see the figure of the old man with a broad belt in front of him, like a man born in the world.
"Xiaolang, what are you going to do?" Ming'er and Ser'er also seemed to hear something, and asked in unison.
Song Zheng raised his head and said with a smile, "You two are also reasonable, Ding Long went to the Guogong Mansion, and it didn't have to be a secret qu (ninetle). β
The three girls showed surprise at the same time, Song Zheng was still scolding Ming'er for interceding for Ding Long just now, but at this time, he said such a thing, which was really confusing. However, after seeing the corners of Song Zheng's raised mouth, the third daughter knew that he had a plan in his heart.
Ming'er and Se'er both felt sorry for Ding Long, but Li Hongniang understood that Song Zheng had prepared good dishes for Xiaotong. If it is not good for Song Zheng, Song Zheng will definitely make him a big heel. It's just that Li Hongniang didn't know that Song Zheng thought about it more deeply and had already developed a strong interest in this grandfather.
"Sister, don't leave tonight, talk to me." After finishing the business, Song Zheng reverted to his old ways, and his mouth became flowery.
Li Hongniang snorted lightly, but did not get up. Seeing this, Ming'er pulled Se'er to get up. They can always be with Song Zheng, but Li Hongniang, the eldest sister, does not have this benefit, and now it is time to leave.
After the second daughter left, Li Hongniang first issued a warning, "Let's talk first, it's okay to speak, don't move your hands and feet." β
Having said that, Song Zheng laughed twice, and still stepped forward to hold Li Hongniang's hand. Li Hongniang struggled slightly, and then let Song Zheng go.
"Come, sister, sit here." Song Zheng pulled Li Hongniang to the side of the bed, sat down together, and with the other hand, he hugged Li Hongniang's shoulder, and his big mouth also came to Li Hongniang's ear, almost sticking to Li Hongniang's earlobe, and then pecked lightly.
Li Hongniang's body trembled, and the feeling of numbness spread throughout her body.
β¦β¦
The two lingered for a while, and although they didn't have a sword or a foot, they were almost out of control. This time, it was not Li Hongniang who calmed down first, but Song Zheng, and his words made Li Hongniang's love tide retreat in an instant:
"Sister, I think Jiang Kui may be a mole!"
