Chapter 137: Return to the Cave House
After Xia Hong's injury stabilized, Meng Tianchu held two small boxes, called Zuo Jiayin to a room, and opened the box to show Zuo Jiayin.
Zuo Jiayin found the Dongchang waist card at a glance, picked it up and looked at it, and said with a smile: Meng Ye, it turns out that you are unwilling to accept Jiayin's recommendation to join Dongchang, because you think the official recommended by Jiayin is too young, so you asked this Father-in-law Wen for a foreman.
Don't tease, you! Meng Tianchu said with a sad face, I really don't want to join Dongchang, but the hot springs even have a waist card ready for me, do I dare to refuse? Don't want your head anymore?
Zuo Jiayin said: I don't understand, why don't you want to join Dongchang? People can't get in if they want to sharpen their heads, so it's better for you to push back and hold back.
I just don't like to do those things that listen to the corner to search for information, and the reputation of the East Factory is not good, which makes people laugh......
Hee-hee...... Zuo Jiayin covered his mouth and smiled, if you accepted my recommendation and became a commander, you would definitely have to listen to the corners of the wall to search for intelligence, but you are now the foreman of Hangzhou East Factory, how can you still need your old man to collect intelligence in person, you just need to see what information needs to be submitted. It's easy. As for the reputation of Dongchang, who dares to laugh at Dongchang? Don't want to die? It is also a good thing for the people to be able to control your subordinates so that they do not oppress the people, and it is no more beneficial than you solving one or two cases!
Meng Tianchu thought for a while and nodded: What you said is right, alas, anyway, I have already boarded the thief ship, what can I do. Then he whispered: I originally wanted to find an opportunity to kill this hot spring to take revenge, what should I do now?
Zuo Jiayin shook his head: I don't agree with your thoughts. This hot spring is very cunning and very well guarded, even if you kill him, you yourself will not be discovered, and when the time comes, you will get into trouble, the world is so big, I am afraid that there is no place for you. Besides, now that he values you so much, he can even say that he has a request for you, as long as you help him get things done. He's a rare backer for you, think about it. Dongchang punished 100 households, the second eunuch of the ceremonial eunuch, and the big red man in front of the emperor as your backer, what else is there to be unfair. Therefore, killing him is just a breath, and it is likely that he will cause endless trouble, and it will be of great benefit to you to keep him now. This dog eunuch is not a good thing, and it will not be too late to clean him up when the conditions are ripe in the future.
Meng Tianchu nodded: You have a lot of sense. I thought that this was a more rational idea, to find such a backer. Of course, it's a great thing for yourself. However, there is one point that Zuo Jiayin is not clear. But you must clearly understand that this is the great harm of heroin. Make the hot springs addictive to drugs. I am playing with fire, after all, it is a matter of raising tigers. Once the hot spring tiger realizes that this thing is a disservice to him, his own time of death will come.
Fortunately, after heroin addiction, as long as it can be supplied in time, there will not be much harm in the initial stage, and from now until the dead eunuch finally discovers that the drug has great harm to his body, it will generally take several years, and he still has time to think of a way, or he still has to think of a perfect way to get rid of this dead eunuch to relieve the troubles in his heart.
Seeing that Meng Tianchu agreed with his idea, Zuo Jiayin was very happy, in fact, the reason why he opposed Meng Tianchu to kill the hot springs was mainly worried about the safety of the person he liked, and he was deeply afraid that Meng Tianchu would get into trouble. As for whether to kill the hot springs or not, she didn't particularly care.
Zuo Jiayin counted the gold and silver in the other box, and said: This hot spring has given you so much gold and silver, it seems that it really values you.
No, the money was for me to supply him with heroin.
Heroin? Zuo Jiayin didn't understand.
The white powder I gave him was extracted from opium.
Yes? Can you configure Jindan? Zuo Jiayin's eyes lit up, after all, she was a heavenly master, and what she always thought about was Jin Dan, and her understanding of heroin was not much different from her understanding of steamed buns.
Meng Tianchu hurriedly shook his head and said in a low voice: No! This is actually poison, which is much more harmful to the body than opium and cannot be used to dispense medicine. Meng Tianchu knew that he had to plug this opening, and if the heroin making technology was spread out at this time, I was afraid that the world would be in chaos.
Zuo Jiayin was taken aback: If you take this medicine to the hot spring, he will know sooner or later, so what can I do?
Don't worry, it's an addictive chronic poison, and when he knows, it's going to be years before we have time to figure it out.
Zuo Jiayin's silver teeth bit lightly, still looking worried.
Meng Tianchu stretched out his hand to wrap his arms around her waist: Don't worry, there will be a way.
Zuo Jiayin broke free gently, and two blushes appeared slightly on his cheeks: Don't be like this, don't just look at the location......
Where do you want to look? Meng Tianchu went to hug her again, Zuo Jiayin dodged away, and giggled: Okay! Don't make a fuss, Mrs. Xia, they found out, what do you tell me to do?
Meng Tianchu took a step forward and said in a low voice: Jiayin, I really want to thank you this time, if it weren't for you, it would be all over.
Well, do we have to be so clear? Zuo Jiayin replied casually, and suddenly found that this was too ambiguous, and hurriedly covered it up: Jiayin didn't do anything, it all depends on your own ability, by the way, you can save Uncle Xia, your medical skills are very powerful, if you are not the foreman of the East Factory, you are not a famous master, you can open a medical hall, and you can make a lot of money
Hehe, that's just a blind cat encountering a dead mouse, speaking of opening a medical center, in fact, I can barely cope with external injuries, and if I really want to see a doctor, I will be blind. In ancient China, where Western medicine did not have any Western medical equipment, it really only had to be fed.
Zuo Jiayin said: That's okay, you just look down and hurt, and make the same money.
Surgery needs anesthesia, is it all opium? Hehe, then China would have worn the hat of the sick man of East Asia hundreds of years earlier. Meng Tianchu smiled bitterly, thinking of opium, and thinking of the task given to him by Hot Springs, and asked Zuo Jiayin: How many opium pills do you still have?
Zuo Jiayin knew Meng Tianchu's intention in asking this, took out a small cloth bag, and poured all the pills on the table: That's all. Is it enough?
Almost. After all these have been refined, they will be able to be eaten by Eunuch Wen until we return to Hangzhou to refine the new medicinal powder, which can almost be grounded.
Fortunately, I've been busy these days, and I haven't paid tribute to this pill yet.
If you don't pay tribute, if the emperor breaks off, it will be terrible!
Don't worry, we have a sufficient supply every time, and there is at least nearly a month's supply in the palace now, but we still have to return to Hangzhou as soon as possible to configure the pills. (For web users, please log in to download TXT format, and mobile users can log in)
Be! But my father-in-law's injuries are not out of danger yet. I can't leave.
Zuo Jiayin pondered for a moment and said: You are not the foreman of the East Factory now. I wrote a letter to my master, and asked him to seal the full amount of pills, and you asked Hangzhou Dongchang to send them urgently with Jinyiwei 800 miles, and you are here to configure it. What do you think?
That's a good idea! Meng Tianchu nodded.
That night, the two of them each wrote a letter, one was written by Zuo Jiayin to her master Jin Lingdao, and the other was written by Meng Tianchu to Hangzhou Jinyi Weiyi Station, asking them to go to Zuofu Jin Lingtianshi to pick up things and send them to the capital Xia Mansion with 800 miles of expedited. The letter was stamped with his own foreman's seal.
The next day, Meng Tianchu and Zuo Jiayin came to the Jinyi Guard Station in the capital. After Meng Tianchu showed his waist card, he sent the two letters of credit away in an expedited manner.
Meng Tianchu worked overtime to refine all the opium provided by Zuo Jiayin into heroin. It was then offered to the hot springs.
The hot spring saw a small group of loose people, and a smile bloomed on his face. repeatedly praised Meng Tianchu for doing things.
Day 3. Emperor Jiajing changed the name of Emperor Hongzhi to the imperial examination, and respected his biological father as the imperial examination. Posthumously recognized the temple number as Ruizong, enshrined in the Taimiao, the status is under the Hongzhi Emperor, and the Zhengde Emperor is above. He equated his biological father with the official emperor of the previous dynasty, and at the same time issued a decree announcing the decision to punish the ministers of the Zuoshunmen incident, and several of them were dismissed from their homes and exiled to the border areas to confiscate the army. A number of others were dismissed from office and never to be replaced. There are also a few pardons for sins and reinstatement of officials, including Xia Hong.
As soon as the decree was made, the Xia family cheered, and Mrs. Xia was so happy that she took Meng Tianchu's hand and just cried. Xia Hong, who was on the sickbed, also began to look sad. Now you can recuperate with peace of mind.
After the promulgation of the holy decree, Xia Hongdi's relatives, friends and old friends also came to congratulate him. Although Mrs. Xia was annoyed that they were missing when they were in danger, she was relieved after putting herself in their shoes.
In the two days since Xia Hongguan was reinstated, Xia's family was full of visitors and visitors. Many people who know the inside story know that Xia Hong, as the backbone of this Zuo Shunmen incident, was able to escape this big crisis, and he was reinstated, there must be an extremely tough backstage, and the smart ones also estimated that it must be related to the celebrant who was in charge of the court staff, so they all came to stammer. didn't know that this backstage was actually from Xia Hong's son-in-law Meng Tianchu.
In a good mood, Xia Hong's recovery speed is faster than normal, he is out of the danger period, he can eat some liquid food, and he can talk intermittently. So, he was transferred to the inner hall bedroom.
On the afternoon of the second day after the official reinstatement, Meng Tianchu was taking care of Xia Hong in the bedroom with Zuo Jiayin, Mrs. Xia, and Jiang Langzhong, and a number of relatives, friends and old friends were also visiting and talking.
Xia Fengyi finally arrived.
Meng Tianchu and Mrs. Xia hurriedly greeted them, and saw Xia Fengyi walking in with Feiyan in surprise, followed by Lao He Tou and Wang Yi Wang Zhutou and a few other Hangzhou Renhe County catchers. Xia Fengyi saw Mrs. Xia at a glance and hurriedly asked, "Mother, is my father really alive?"
It turned out that Xia Fengyi didn't see the white banner doing the funeral outside the gate, so she breathed a sigh of relief, and when she entered the door, she asked the porter and learned that the old man was still alive, so she was pleasantly surprised and rushed inside.
Mrs. Xia held her daughter's arm, tears streaming down her face, and nodded again and again: Yes, your father is still alive, thanks to Tianchu, this child~!
Xia Fengyi glanced at Meng Tianchu deeply, hurriedly entered her parents' bedroom, and saw Xia Hong, who was lying on the sickbed, his head covered with gauze, and his body was extremely haggard, and he exclaimed sadly: Daddy~! grabbed two steps, knelt beside the bed with a bang, and asked in a sad cry: Daddy, how are you......?"
Xia Hong's hand was already able to move, and he stretched out his hand tremblingly and held his daughter's hand: Dad...... It's okay...... Other...... Lose sleep over something......
The maids took a stool for Xia Fengyi to sit down.
Mrs. Xia briefly said what happened, and said that Meng Tianchu had surgery to save Xia Hong. I found the eunuch hot spring several times, and tried to get through the relationship, and finally Xia Hong avoided the second court staff, and the hot spring also returned the heavy gift, and yesterday the emperor had issued a holy decree to reinstate Xia Hongguan. These are the results of his son-in-law Meng Tianchu's busy running back and forth, and of course, Zuo Jiayin and Jiang Langzhong, who can be said to be Xia Hong's life-saving benefactors.
After Xia Fengyi kowtowed to Jiang Langzhong with tears in her eyes, she also kowtowed to Zuo Jiayin, and was supported by Zuo Jiayin: Sister, let's be commensurate with sisters. How can you still be so polite. Your father isn't that the father of the good news?
Xia Fengyi nodded gratefully, and thanked Zuo Jiayin. turned around and saluted Meng Tianchu: The husband didn't dare to repay the kindness, and the concubine was engraved in his heart.
Meng Tianchu smiled: It's nothing, I did all this to thank my father-in-law and his old man for their nurturing and cultivation of Tianchu, and the lady doesn't have to remember it too much, so as not to deal with it in the future.
The last sentence is nondescript and confusing, only Xia Fengyi and Feiyan can understand it, and Zuo Jiayin just guessed a rough idea.
Xia Fengyi's eyes were red, she didn't speak, she turned around and sat down beside her father, and her tears fell like pearls with broken threads.
Xia Hong raised his hand. Rubbing Xia Fengyi's hair: Silly ...... Child, what ...... crying. Previously we ...... It's ...... to blame Tianchu, it's really ...... Blast...... Zhijin grass. Tian Chu is a ...... Trustworthy ...... Good boy....... You followed Tianchu ......, and your father will ...... in the future Under the Nine Springs...... And I was blinded......
Xia Fengyi pounced on Xia Hong. Wow cried out, these days of endless worry, anxiety and infinite grievances, with tears flowing freely.
In the evening, Xia Hong's injury was basically stable, and they didn't need Meng Tianchu to wait all night, and after arranging a few maids to wait in turn, Meng Tianchu, Xia Fengyi, and Feiyan returned to their small courtyard, the small courtyard that drove Meng Tianchu out on the wedding night.
Meng Tianchu and Xia Fengyi sat at the round table in the cave room, and Feiyan waited on the side, not speaking for a while.
It was Meng Tianchu who broke the deadlock, smiled, pointed to the happy bed that was still hanging with the big red tent, and said: Do you remember? You two were here to bully me that day.
Feiyan sneered: Young master, do you still remember this incident? Grandma and I have apologized to you countless times, and you are a little ...... Hee-hee
Small-bellied chicken intestines, right? Meng Tianchu smiled, I have never been so embarrassed, so I am very impressed.
No way? …… Feiyan's big eyes flashed, and she thought to herself, you used to be angry with us, and you were much more powerful than this, how did you become something that you have never suffered.
Xia Fengyi said in a low voice: Yes, my husband treats me like a mountain, at that time I didn't know that my husband turned out to be a person who values love and righteousness, but I misunderstood my husband, and I bullied my husband here, so I will make amends here, which is more appropriate. After that, he got up and bowed. Feiyan also gave a blessing.
Meng Tianchu hurriedly got up and saluted: I see that the two of you are always sitting down, so you are still taking it seriously.
After Xia Fengyi sat down, the room fell silent again.
Meng Tianchu didn't like this atmosphere, and said in a low voice: The lady has worked hard all the way, and his father-in-law's old man's injury has stabilized, don't worry, let's rest early.
Xia Fengyi seemed to be thinking about something, as if she hadn't heard Meng Tianchu's words, she lowered her head, and after a while, she gritted her silver teeth, and then slowly raised her head, her beautiful Danfeng eyes were slightly shy and a little confused, and looked at Meng Tianchu: Husband, I returned to the cave room today, and I also have my own providence in the dark, my husband is as kind to the concubine's family as a ......mountain, the concubine is ......, and the concubine is with her husband today...... Have you had sex with you...... Boiling - Teng - members hit by hand
Meng Tianchu was overjoyed in his heart, and blurted out: Really? That's great!
Xia Fengyi nodded, a hint of helplessness drifted in her eyes: Hmm......
This trace of helplessness was accurately grasped by Meng Tianchu, and he also tasted the taste of Xia Fengyi's words just now, and couldn't help but the smile on his face slowly froze, and he smiled reluctantly: Today, what about the future?
Xia Fengyi was slightly stunned, as if she hadn't thought carefully about this issue, her long eyelashes drooped, and after a moment, she raised her head again and said: ...... Naturally, we will be together from now on...... Be a real couple......
Meng Tianchu squinted his eyes and saw Feiyan looking at Xia Fengyi with pity, looking very helpless.
Meng Tianchu's heart was bright, and he sighed softly: Lady, thank you for your kindness, to be honest, I helped my father-in-law and his old man deal with this matter, all to repay his old man's kindness to my nurturing and cultivation, and I didn't want to please you through this matter, nor did I think that I hoped to save your heart through this matter and be a century-old husband and wife with you. To tell you the truth, I do like you very much, I like your beauty, you have a personality, you dare to love and hate, but it's a pity that you don't like me, or you don't fall in love with me, which is indeed a very sad thing, but I don't need pity or sympathy, and I don't need to be compromised because of gratitude. So, I can't take your suggestion right now.
