Volume 2 Chapter 156 The eaves listen to the spring rain

"Sha, sand, sand......" There was a movement in Jingfu's study, and you could hear it when you got closer.

Miaojin walked to the door of the study, and when he pushed open the door and entered, he saw Jing Qing sharpening a short dagger! Jing Qing turned his head, glanced at Miaojin, and continued to sharpen the dagger without saying a word.

Miaojin's face was pale, and when she saw the weapon her father was holding, she concluded: Father doesn't even have a chance! This matter can only be sent to death in vain.

It's no wonder that Jing Qing was born as a jinshi, and it is okay to write articles and be an official, but it is a bit difficult to ask him to be an assassin as a literati. Just like in Beiping, Jing Qing asked Miaojin to plot a stab, but there is no way to plan, and none of them can do it; Not to mention asking him to do it himself.

After Jing Qing finished sharpening the knife, he tried on his official uniform, took the short knife, and was busy looking for a place to hide, putting it in his arms for a while, and inserting it into his boots for a while, just like a general before the battle.

Miao Jin exited the study and gently closed the door, she was a little unsteady when she walked, and she felt that there was little strength in her legs.

……

The north of the Imperial City of Beijing is mountainous, the east reaches the inner city wall, the south side has many government offices, and the depth is too close to Zhengyang Gate; Only the west side of the imperial city, and the southwest of the Qinhuai River, are the most prosperous and densely populated places in the inner city of Beijing.

Chen Dazhui drove the felt cart and walked along the streets and alleys to the west of the imperial city. Zhu Gaoxu sat in the carriage and watched the shops and scenery along the road through the window.

It has been more than two months since the Jingnan army entered Beijing, and the panic of the Beijing division at the beginning has gradually dissipated, and the world soon found that the unlucky people were all official eunuchs, so the shops were reopened, and the emperor's business was changed to do it, and the life was taken care of. The streets and alleys are full of cars and horses, crowded with people, and the market is very lively.

The carriage slowly passed through the crowded Flower and Bird Street first, and Zhu Gaoxu saw a shop to pawn, so he stopped at the door for a while.

Zhu Gaoxu thought that he really loves to raise flowers and plants, but if the plants are not taken care of and watered, they will wither, and it is too unusual to have a bunch of dead flowers and plants to sell in the store.

It was troublesome to run this kind of shop, so he asked Chen Dazhui to drive away from this place.

When he reached the north bank of the Qinhuai River, Zhu Gaoxu saw a street selling jade and jewelry, and immediately became interested and asked Chen Dazhui to go around and take a look.

There are always people who are not doing well in business and want to pawn the shop, and soon Zhu Gaoxu found one. When the carriage stopped, he walked in at the gate, and looked around, when the shopkeeper came and greeted him.

Zhu Gaoxu looked at all kinds of jade and pearls in the wooden lattice, mostly jade pendants and jade pendants, he turned around, but didn't find anything good.

Although there are many colorful things, Zhu Gaoxu did not find any good color. Only one piece of Hetian jade looks a little purer in color, but unfortunately it is faintly a little blue-green. He had long known that this kind of white jade, milky white and warm mutton fat jade, was valuable.

The shopkeeper had been paying attention to Zhu Gaoxu, and when he saw that he was only standing in front of Hetian Yu for a moment, he shook his head slightly and left. The shopkeeper said: "The better things are all right, but this shop is good, and you can see the scenery of the Qinhuai River upstairs." ”

"Let's not open a wine shop and a teahouse." Zhu Gaoxu said with a smile, "If there are valuable goods coming in, where will they be placed?" ”

"Guest officer, please come with Lao'er." The way of the shopkeeper.

Soon Zhu Gaoxu decided to buy this shop, because there was an exquisite secret room in the small courtyard inside. A wall cabinet has a mechanism, and after opening the mechanism and opening it, there is a dark room inside to hide treasures; Once the wall cabinet is closed, it is difficult to find the entrance.

Zhu Gaoxu immediately signed a contract with the shopkeeper, and he didn't even negotiate the price.

When he had done this, he left the place and went straight home.

When the carriage arrived at the gate of the palace, Zhu Gaoxu had just gotten out of the carriage, and suddenly a voice said, "King Gaoyang." He turned his head and saw a tall woman wearing a hood standing on the side of the street, and the voice just now was Miao Jin's voice!

For a moment, the expression on his face changed subtly, and he was very surprised, he didn't expect Miaojin to take the initiative to find him, and it came very suddenly. is also a little worried, just as Zhu Gaoxu understood the details when he just moved into this mansion, the original servants in the mansion are unreliable!

Zhu Gaoxu immediately reacted and said, "Get in the carriage first." ”

He immediately opened the wooden door, invited Miaojin to go up, then glanced at the closed door of the mansion and the servants standing at the door, and walked into the carriage himself, patted the wooden plank and said, "Chen Dazhui, go!" ”

The carriage left the palace again, and Zhu Gaoxu still picked up the corner of the curtain and looked back at the situation on the street.

"It's a bit abrupt." Miaojin's voice said softly.

Zhu Gaoxu turned his head and saw that she had taken off her hat, her face was red, and she looked a little embarrassed. Zhu Gaoxu said: "It's okay, it's okay. But when we meet again in the future, I've prepared another place. ”

Miao Jin is noncommittal.

He looked at Miaojin and saw that she was wearing a lilac half-armed, moon-white skirt today, the satin fabric was shiny, and the soft fabric of the clothes made her chest look very full and bulging. Although the color of the clothes is not bright, Miaojin has always been dressed up beautifully and plainly, and today is the most gorgeous makeup Zhu Gaoxu has ever seen.

She sits in a dignified manner, with her jade-white hands folded on her legs, and her nails smeared with fine light red pigment, which matches her snow-white skin, and the color is extremely delicate and delicate. When sitting, the skirt is taut, and the satin folds at the hips make the rounded lines even more eye-catching.

Zhu Gaoxu also saw that she was wearing earrings on her ears, the small and new silver earrings were very elegant, and pearl powder was smeared around her eyes, so at first glance, there was a faint white light shining on her eyes and ears, which made people feel that she was in good spirits, white and elegant.

So sitting in front of Zhu Gaoxu is simply an elegant and stunning lady.

"How's your dad?" Zhu Gaoxu asked softly.

Miaojin's bright gaze brushed over his face, "Let's not talk about him today?" ”

Zhu Gaoxu nodded.

Miaojin said softly: "This year's spring is coming to an end, but because of the country's events, I don't have the opportunity to go green, is King Gaoyang willing to accompany me to see the scenery today?" ”

Zhu Gaoxu thought about it for a while, and felt that there were many people on the streets of the inner city of Beijing, so he proposed: "Zhongshan in the outer city is not far away, and it is relatively quiet, you can overlook the beautiful scenery of the whole city by climbing up the mountain, let's go to Zhongshan?" ”

Miaojin nodded slightly.

So Zhu Gaoxu patted the carriage and said, "Sledgehammer, go to Taipingmen." ”

Along the way, he thought about seeing Miaojin today and considered whether to tie her up again! But this time it was a bit rushed and nothing was ready...... The new mansion of Jingshi is not as good as the palace of Gaoyang County in Beiping, and the people in the new mansion are a bit complicated, and they must not be locked up. The newly bought jade shop only wrote the contract today, and I am afraid that the original shopkeeper will return to the shop in the next few days.

So Zhu Gaoxu gave up his plan and wanted to wait a few more days to get ready. He really wanted to ask Miaojin when Jingqing would go to Hu Gan, but she didn't want to mention it just now, so she had to give up for the time being.

Zhu Gaoxu thought of Jing Qing, so he convinced him! Now that Zhu Di, who is the Son of Heaven, is middle-aged, what storms have he not seen? With Jingqing's little power, he really wants to plot to assassinate Zhu Di, but he really thinks too much...... Back then, Jing Ke assassinated the King of Qin, with the support of the prince of Yan State, and the King of Qin had never fought in person, and his martial arts were not necessarily as strong as Zhu Diqiang, so Jing Ke still failed.

Zhu Gaoxu believes that in order to assassinate the emperor, there is only one situation that is the easiest to succeed. That is, the emperor has offended too many powerful people, and there are major conflicts of interests and interests, such as Emperor Yongzheng.

The carriage went out of the Taiping Gate and soon arrived at the foot of Zhongshan Mountain.

Zhu Gaoxu asked Chen Dazhui to find a place to wait, so he got out of the car with Miaojin and picked a secluded path up the mountain. Miaojin put on her hat and walked to the front at some point, so Zhu Gaoxu had to follow her.

Her moon-white skirt fluttered in the breeze, and with the pace, the round and straight silhouette loomed, no wonder Zhu Gaoxu thought that her place was convenient and valuable.

There were almost no people encountered along the way, as Zhu Gaoxu expected, although the wind and waves in Jingshi gradually calmed down, the terrifying atmosphere was still there, and few people had the heart to play.

"King Gaoyang, are you okay?" Miaojin turned around, gasping heavily, looking down at Zhu Gaoxu, with a beautiful smile on her face, and reached out to touch the green silk that fell on her face.

She seems to be in a good mood today, often showing a wonderful smile, Zhu Gaoxu has seen her many times in Beiping, and all her smiles in the past may not be as much as today.

Zhu Gaoxu didn't breathe, and couldn't help but boast: "I am in the battle array, wearing fifty catties of armor and a few weapons, fighting left and right, and I can fight from morning to afternoon." ”

Miaojin smiled, turned around and continued walking.

The two of them walked slowly, climbed the mountain for a long time, and did not reach the top of the mountain. At this moment, suddenly raindrops the size of beans dropped onto Zhu Gaoxu's face, and in an instant, heavy rain began to fall around the "......".

"There was no sun this morning, and I forgot to bring an umbrella." Zhu Gaoxu said.

The two of them were instantly drenched in soup, and Miaojin pointed to the house in front of him and said, "It seems that there is a temple, let's go and hide from the rain." ”

"Be careful of your step, the road is the most slippery when it rains just now." Zhu Gaoxu reminded.

The two of them quickened their pace and hurried to the temple to hide from the rain. There is only one room in this house, and there is a mud bodhisattva in it, and there is no one to guard it. Miaojin ran to the door, and when she turned around, she saw Zhu Gaoxu standing in the rain in a daze, so she said, "King Gaoyang doesn't come in yet!" After a while, she suddenly blushed, clasped her hands, and glared at Zhu Gaoxu.

After a period of embarrassment, Miaojin had just run for a while, and at this time she was still panting, and her body was slightly undulating. The rain was drenching her hair, which was running down the corners of her charming eyes and down her beautiful face. Her arms were trembling, as if she wanted to put it down, her face became redder and redder, and finally she twisted her soft waist, turned around and ran into the temple, and said, "You want to get drenched in the rain, forget it if you don't come in!" ”
