When Ma Du was lying on the bed, he suddenly thought that he hadn't seen Lao Liu and Zhang Wuliu for a day, if these two guys were in him, why would he be locked up by his uncle for a day.

Early the next morning, Weng and his son-in-law finally appeared, and when they asked, they learned that the two of them went out to run errands yesterday, and on the way back, they met Ah Shui, who went to the street to inquire about the situation.

Ah Shui invited the two of them to drink, as for why they drank all night but it was difficult to explain, seeing that the two of them were sluggish and walking fluttering, they guessed seven or eight points, who said that they must go to the restaurant to drink, and the two sons-in-law did not know how to blush.

Hearing that Ma Du had been imprisoned for a day, the two hurriedly lay on the ground and pleaded guilty. Ma Du waved his hand, "Okay, each person will be deducted one or two pieces of silver this month." "When the bill was settled at the end of the month, Chunhua's mother and daughter found that they were missing silver, so they naturally cleaned them up.

"Lao Liu, let's talk about Zhang Shicheng that night, you didn't tell Ah Shui."

"Master, it's too underestimating people, such a fool will shout all over the world."

Well, the whole world can see it, just be a fool yourself.

The eldest brother began to pick people out, and a big family like them who was knowledgeable, well-behaved and educated would not let the uncle who had never been through the door live at home.

Since Song Ke wants to act, Ma Du has no choice but to cooperate, and if he moves away, he will move away, anyway, he won't see Song Shuang before he gets married. The eldest brother finally took out an iron fist to rectify his sister-in-law this time, not only for the sake of his Song Ke's face, but also for the good of his own sister-in-law.

Even Shen Wansan's "cousin" Song Ke was wronged for his sister-in-law. Now I really feel that my family has climbed high, and I can't help but worry about my sister.

Especially this marriage is Ma Du's own initiative, without the consent of Princess Wu at all, if he is really withdrawn from the marriage again, he is really afraid that his sister-in-law will not be able to bear the blow. He couldn't control Princess Wu's thoughts, so he could only start from his own sister-in-law.

Of course, Ma Du saw his thoughts, and before leaving the Song Mansion, he said to Song Ke seriously: "Big brother, don't worry, everything is with me, don't be too harsh on Xiaoshuang." ”

Song Ke didn't appreciate it, "There are no rules, there is no circle, you don't have to worry about this matter!" ”

Ma Du slandered in his heart, if you had such an awareness ten years earlier, why did you have to catch ducks on the shelves like today.

The Song family couldn't live, so Shen Wansan was kind to invite, but Ma Du didn't bother to look at his philistine's face. I heard that as soon as Xu Da entered the city, he immediately came to the door and sent 20,000 stone grain and 5,000 taels of silver, and the grass on the wall fell too quickly.

Zhang Shicheng's palace was empty, but no one dared to live there, Xu Da and Zhu Wenying both lived in Pingjiang Mansion, and Ma Du had to move there to live with them.

As soon as Xu Dagang entered the city, he cut off a group of heads, such as Huang Caiye and other Zhang Shicheng's subordinates, and took out rice and grain to help the people, and the situation in Pingjiang quickly stabilized, most of the shops have reopened, and there are pedestrians on the streets.

Ma Du branched Lao Liu and Zhang Wuliu to go to Zhang Shicheng's palace alone, and the streets near the palace were much more deserted than those near other palaces, and they were empty and unpopular.

But there was an old woman kneeling at the main gate of the palace to burn paper, which looked a little weird.

The guard at the gate was very impatient, "You can't stay away from it, it's really bad luck in broad daylight." ”

The old woman didn't raise her head, and her mouth was full of words, "...... You forcibly moved your old body to another place, and there was a lot of resentment in your old body and mind, and they often cursed at you...... Now that it is approaching the fifteenth day of August, there is no one to reward the old body, and now that you have no food rations and no one to live, you know that you used to take a lot of care of the old body...... The old body has nothing else to grow, only this knife of yellow paper to reward the princess for her kindness......"

Madu took out a small ingot of silver from the money bag and placed it in front of the old woman, who raised her head and looked at Madu, "The old man is not a beggar, why did he give me the money?" ”

Ma Du replied: "This is what Princess Liu entrusted me to reward you before she died. ”

The old woman trembled and reached out to pick up the silver from the ground, "The princess still remembers the old body, the princess still remembers the old body......"

Looking at her chattering appearance, Ma Du knew that there must be something wrong with this old woman's brain, eighty percent of it was Alzheimer's disease, otherwise she would not have cursed Princess Liu for no reason in the past.

The guards guarding the door had changed, and Ma Du, who they didn't recognize, spoke out and drove away, so Ma Du had no choice but to give the soldiers a waist card and a warrant, "This official is on the order of Commander Zhu to inspect." ”

Asking Zhu Wenying to get a pass waist card and a warrant to enter the palace is naturally nothing, and he doesn't even need an excuse.

"It turned out to be Shangguan, the little one has just offended, please forgive Shangguan!"

"It doesn't matter! You are busy with yours, I'll go to the palace and have a look. Madu had just stepped on the stone steps in front of the door, and his back ached, and when he turned his head, he saw a small silver ingot rolling to the ground.

The old woman just now pointed at Ma Du and scolded angrily: "Traitor! Traitor! ……”

The soldier in front of the door wanted to fight, but Ma Du hurriedly stopped, "Forget it, let her go, if she really kills it, it will ruin the reputation of the prince and the handsome." ”

Isn't he a traitor to a person who has a heart for Zhang Shicheng? He stooped down and picked up the silver from the ground, put it back in his pocket, and walked into the palace with his legs raised.

Of course, he came here to find something that Zhang Shicheng gave him, can he save his life? I don't know what it is, the palace is bleak and cold, empty and without any life.

Ma Du gently pushed open Princess Liu's bedroom, but after a few days, there was already a musty smell, and the few remaining decorations became very messy, and they were obviously looted again.

I heard that all the gold and jade on Zhang Shicheng's throne were pried away, and only a wooden shelf remained. It's also a shame that Lao Zhu's army is considered to have strict military discipline, otherwise he wouldn't even want to save a piece of wood.

He went to Princess Wu's bedroom, groped around on the walls on both sides of the carved bed, and searched for a long time but didn't find any secret grids, was he deceived by Lao Zhang? There's no need for that!

He had to grope on the bed again, and finally found a small hidden compartment on the inside of the bed beam, in which only a few letters and a green jade pendant were placed, it was a small fish with a bent tail, and the carving was so exquisite that even the scales were clear and lifelike.

Ma Du thought that Lao Zhang had some big killer, but after reading the letter, he couldn't help but be disappointed. What Zhang Shicheng gave him was nothing short of chicken to him. He is fully capable of doing it himself, doing it openly, doing it bigger and better, the key is that he doesn't have to have anything to do with Zhang Shicheng, and he doesn't have to worry about being pigtailed by Lao Zhu.

He took out the fire fold that he had prepared before, and blew it gently, burning all the letters, and crushing them to pieces. Seeing that the jade pendant was crystal clear and lifelike, I couldn't bear to destroy it, so I put it in my arms.

In one of the attics of the palace, two people were watching through the window as Madu walked out of the gate of the palace. If Ma Du was here, he must have recognized one of them who had served him in the palace, and the other was the housekeeper who asked Ma Du to teach him the secret of giving birth to a man.

The housekeeper frowned and said, "What is he doing here?" ”

"Who knows." Uncle Gen's ears are obviously very good.

"Otherwise, I'll check, and if there is a result, I'll report it to Yingtian."

Uncle Gen shook his head, "Forget it, we offended him a lot, and now that he didn't come to trouble us, you still dare to provoke him." He responded to the heavens, and we could all lose our heads. ”

The housekeeper gasped, "No, in the end, we are also here for the Duke of Chu!" ”

Uncle Gen smiled bitterly, "The road has been opened in the past few days, and I asked people to go to Yingtian to make up a detailed information about him, and I feel scared when I read it." Liao Yongan has long been a dead man in the prince's place, what Chu Guogong is just to appease people's hearts, this is the prince's wings! ”
