Chapter 419: None of them are good people
Qin Mo knocked on the side for a moment, and soon figured out the little calculations in the stomach of the drunken Qi Hao.
"People are in the old store of the Zhou family in Yong'an Fang in the west of the city, and I have already sent someone over. What do you say? ”
"I personally went over to pick her up mother and son."
"Is it really your species? Hehe, that's impressive. ”
The owner of the old store of the Zhou family in the west of the city can't close his mouth with a smile at the moment, his shop was covered by a big man, this big man is not only rich in financial resources, but also very powerful, inside and outside are full of men in plain clothes, these big men have sharp eyes, but not many words, it seems to span black and white, very difficult to provoke.
Fang officials were afraid that something would happen, and told the Wuhou shop near the left, and several shop soldiers were ordered to go to inquire, and were politely introduced into a side building, about a cup of tea, everyone came out, one by one, with a solemn face, as if to do a great thing, but as soon as they went out, they slipped away without a trace, and never showed up again.
Another day passed, and the Gushan Marquis Mansion suddenly put on a full guard of honor and came to the old store of the Zhou family with great fanfare.
Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon in Chang'an City, a mere marquis is nothing, but the power of this marquis is not comparable to ordinary princes and nobles, and his dispatch shook half of Chang'an City.
As for what the Gushan Marquis is doing here, there are different opinions, and there is no conclusion, and for a long time, it is all the talk of Chang'an people after dinner.
The news soon spread to the palace, and the concubine Guo Shi listened to a few long-mouthed little eunuchs after making up the matter, and said to the queen mother: "How dare he rush over with great fanfare after doing such an ugly thing, how thick is this person's skin?" ”
The Queen Mother smiled and said: "In my opinion, this shows that he is a person with affection and righteousness." It's hard to say if you're a bystander, and if you do evil in the old days, I'm afraid it's too late to cover up. ”
Concubine Guo did not agree with the Queen Mother's opinion, but she did not debate either.
Guo Ren, who was sitting on the right hand of the Queen Mother, bowed and said: "He is now highly evaluated in the capital, saying that he is affectionate and righteous. ”
The Queen Mother said: "What's the matter, my words are not wrong." ”
Guo Ren said again: "Some people say that he is extremely smart, obviously the abandoned person blocked the door and scolded him and didn't dare to go out, but he became a good person with affection and righteousness." ”
The Queen Mother shook her head when she heard this, and said: "If he is in this position, there will be more rights and wrongs, and who can tell clearly about right and wrong." Our ladies are talking here, which seems to be reasonable, but maybe it is a digression. It's just a matter of talking about something new, and you can't really do it. ”
Guo Ren wanted to say something, but Guo Guifei coughed and said with a smile: "It doesn't matter what he does, there is a way to talk about others behind his back, let's take care of our own affairs." Next month is New Year's Day, this year the imperial court quelled the chaos in Xichuan and Zhenhai, relieved tens of thousands of people in Heluo, and repelled the barbarians in the border town, we have to have a good time this New Year's Day. ”
The queen mother also came to the spirit, and said yes in a loud voice, shouting that she would call all the people in the palace to discuss and discuss.
Guo Ren said: "There are thousands of people in the family, one person in charge, big and small things, and they have to be decided later. ”
The Queen Mother smiled and said: "In the end, you Buddhists understand things, you still have to come often in the future, talk to me, and let me understand." Then he explained to the concubine: "I think that's what to do." "Tell Guo Guifei to come up with a charter first, and then gather everyone to discuss one by one.
Bidding farewell to the Queen Mother, all the concubines and concubines resigned to the concubine, leaving Guo Ren alone for a while.
Guo Guifei glanced at her and snorted: "You, a Buddhist family, should not enter the palace in the future, so as not to blaspheme the gods." Guo Ren said: "The poor nun doesn't understand the meaning of the concubine. Concubine Guo snorted coldly: "Then please ask the old nun to go back and consider, consider." ”
Yan Yan didn't look at him again, and walked away.
Guo Ren was angry and returned to the lower courtyard of Donglin Temple, since he was ordered by the holy oracle to cut his hair here and practice, Guo Ren did not sink, but wore monk's clothes and walked more frequently in the homes of the powerful, her old relationship was not lost, but because of her special status as a monk, it was more solid.
Before she left home, there was news that she had an unclear relationship with the emperor's family, and some people didn't believe it very much, but now it is a certainty, otherwise why did Donglin Temple add a lower courtyard because of her arrival, why did she want to make her, a person who can't read Buddhist scriptures, the head of the courtyard, and why let her enter and leave the palace freely.
Doesn't all this confirm her unusual identity from the side?
Make friends with the general's wife, stimulating.
It is more exciting to make friends with the wife of the general of Luan Zhonglang.
Making friends with the head of a royal temple is even more exciting than the first two combined.
Because Donglin Temple is a blessed land in the eyes of the Queen Mother, after the new emperor ascended the throne, countless good men and women took the initiative to donate money to increase and expand, and the scale at this time has been magnificent.
Although Guo Ren's lower courtyard was added later, it occupied the main body of Donglin Temple, including the Jinjia Shenren Temple, which was included in the lower courtyard where she was, and the original monks were driven out and reorganized into the upper courtyard. The two courtyards are eighteen miles apart, and they do not interact with each other.
Guo Ren entered in a small sedan chair, the little nun who served her changed her clothes, and the old nun offered fragrant tea and told her that Guo Liang was waiting in the guest hall outside, Guo Ren asked angrily: "What is he doing here, I don't see him." ”
Lao Ni didn't dare to say more, smiled, and retreated.
After taking a sip of tea, Guo Ren said to the little nun again: "You go and ask the shopkeeper Guo what he is doing." ”
Xiao Ni went not long ago, but heard a commotion outside, Guo Liang broke in, the little nun stumbled in front of Guo Liang to block, was pushed by Guo Liang several times, every time she ran to the two lumps of meat on her chest, every time she pushed, Guo Liang smiled and said two sentences, and the little nun who pushed her face was full of shame, like a red-faced Bodhisattva.
"Bastard." Guo Ren scolded and took the case.
Guo Liang put away his frivolity, and the little nun hung her head aside.
The old nun hurriedly blasted people out, left and right, and she blasted herself out by the way.
Guo Liang smiled and said, "So you were here, I thought you weren't there." ”
Guo Ren took a sip of tea and said coldly, "What's the matter?" ”
Seeing that his sister's attitude had eased, Guo Liang hurriedly came up, moved an embroidery pier and sat opposite Guo Ren, looked around, lowered his voice and said, "Sister, my brother is in big trouble, you have to save me." ”
Guo Ren snorted coldly and said, "I am a monk, and the donkey is looking for a sister to find elsewhere." ”
Guo Liang was stunned for a moment, his face darkened, and he wanted to have a seizure, but he held back but continued to smile and said: "Look at what you said, who doesn't know that you are just avoiding the limelight here, and when the limelight passes, you can't go back......"
"Don't talk nonsense." Guo Renxiu's eyes were round, and he shouted.
Guo Liang refused to say anything, and after a while, Guo Ren said again: "Some things will pass forever after the past, and it is not easy to go back to the past." ”
After being silent for a while, Guo Ren brought tea to the guests, and the two old nuns broke in.
After his brother left, Guo Ren dropped the tea bowl, covered his face and cried bitterly, there was no way to persuade him, so he had to retreat silently, and was frowning under the corridor, when he suddenly saw a little eunuch coming in a hurry, everyone was overjoyed, and hurriedly greeted him.
The little eunuch took a breath, immediately straightened his waist, and explained to the two old nuns: "Everyone, please Master Jingyi, two days later, Lang Pavilion will talk about the Buddha and give a lecture." Do you all understand? ”
The two old nuns nodded like chickens pecking rice.
The little eunuch snorted, and said sharply: "The two of you have arranged carefully, and if something goes wrong, everyone will be finished together." ”
The two were surprised and delighted, and said in a loud voice: "Don't worry, don't worry." ”
Guo Ren was overjoyed when he heard this, ordered to set up fragrant soup for bathing, fasted for a day without eating, and waited for two days to go to Lang Pavilion to talk to the Son of Heaven on Buddhism.
……
When planning the house, everyone didn't know that there was a mother and son, so they didn't prepare for her, which was inevitably a little rushed.
Li Mao smiled: "Let her stay in Wan'er's courtyard for two days." ”
The head of the family said lightly, and suddenly solved a big problem for everyone.
When it comes to how the status of Qixin's mother and son should be determined, Qin Niang advocated: "Although she started later than Sister Wan'er, she was earlier in the round house and gave birth to Xiao Langjun first, so I think it is set before Sister Wan'er." ”
Lan'er said: "Although she and Ah Mao have a relationship first, they entered the door later than all the sisters, so I don't care if there is a team in the middle, I'm afraid that Sister Wan'er won't agree, and she has also suffered a lot in Weizhou." ”
Qin Niang knew that Lan'er wanted to fight for priority, and she refused to come forward to offend people, so she used Zhu Wan'er as a pretense, and it was difficult to answer her for a while, so she asked Li Mao how to solve it. Li Mao asked her rhetorically what she meant.
Qin Niang said: "You have to set up this rule, whether it is in the order of the ceremony or the fact." It's up to you. ”
Li Mao said: "Etiquette cannot be abolished, and it is the most convenient and fair, so it will be subject to the order of ceremony." ”
Qixin suffered a lot along the way, and the mother and son were extremely weak, Li Mao called Chang Heqing to dispense medicine for the two, and during the conditioning period, he went to visit twice a day in the morning and evening, but he did not stay in her room at night.
Qi Xin is still young and doesn't care much about the affairs of men and women, Qin Niang and Lan'er told her that the reason why Li Mao didn't stay overnight was completely for her sake.
"As soon as the idiot came up crazy, he was like a big python, the tossed bed collapsed, and he was as weak and delicate as his sister, how could he be destroyed."
Lan'er was alarmist, Qi Xin smiled faintly, lowered her head and said nothing.
Qin Niang sympathized with her and said: "Don't listen to your sister Lan'er, the reason why you don't let you have sex with each other is also for your own good, recuperate for a few more days, and when your body recovers, it's fun to toss again." ”
Qi Xin's face turned red all of a sudden, and Lan'er said: "I didn't expect that when Sister Qinniang, who is responsible for her duties, said something shameful, it would be so embarrassing." I'm convinced. ”
Qin Niang knew that Lan'er had a lot of words, so she didn't dare to pay attention to her, but she just looked at Qi Xin and said Qi Xin: "I understand the kindness of my sisters, Ugly Er is weak, I am going to accompany him more, he is busy, don't come." ”
Qixin can have this attitude, Qinniang is very pleased, and Lan'er is very happy.
Her second brother Qi Hao was dissatisfied with Li Mao's snubbing of his sister-in-law, and heard that Li Mao never stayed in the sister-in-law's room, Qi Hao hurried to find Li Mao's theory, and shouted that everyone in the house knew it.
Qin Mo said something evil, sent him away, turned back to Li Mao and said, "I drank too much, I was in a panic, and I ran and shouted." Yang Qi sent someone to send New Year's goods, saying that they lacked a horse manager there, I see that the eldest brother is wandering around all day and has nothing to do, so it is better to let him pass, and there is something to do. ”
Li Mao said: "I understand what you mean, I'll talk about this matter after the New Year." At present, we have to send people to Yunzhou, it is best to bring people in, and if not, we can give some money and settle them well. Yunzhou was affected by the disaster this year, and life was difficult. ”
Qin Mo smiled: "You don't need to tell me, I sent someone earlier." It's also that we didn't think about things, we just wanted to appease Qixin at the beginning, but as a result, Ziqing must have known about this trouble, people, I'm afraid I won't be able to take it, money, you can rest assured, you must give enough. ”
Li Mao said: "There are also Zhang Qi's family and Han Yi's family, all of which must be kept in mind." ”
Qin Mo said with a smile: "Don't worry, Hu Nanxiang takes care of these things, he is a person who has a finer heart than me, and he is more thoughtful than me." ”
Li Mao held his cheeks and looked at Qin Mo, and said with a smile: "Did you go out last night?" Speak for him so hard. ”
Qin Mo said: "Hey, I won't do those things for a long time, I'm tired, I won't play in the future, I will concentrate on following you, getting promoted and making a fortune, Bo a marquis and a prime minister, a wife and a son, and make a name in history." ”
After saying a bunch of marginal words, the two shifted the topic to the matter of giving and receiving gifts before the end of the year, this is a small matter, but also a big thing, it is both a difficult thing and a hard thing, when the two were racking their brains, Hu Chuan ran over out of breath and said: "Oh no, my uncle is fighting with someone on the street." ”
After Qi Hao arrived in Chang'an, he had no food and clothing for a while, and with the experience accumulated in the old days in Yunzhou, he quickly became one with the gangsters on the streets of Chang'an, he played a good card of Li Mao, gave the leading brother of the gangster a number of attractive promises, and quickly won the trust of the leading brother, and was entrusted with a heavy responsibility.
Now that he has confessed to his relatives, the eldest brother who took the lead asked him to fulfill his original promise, but Qi Hao quit.
My dignified uncle of the Gushan Houfu, the closest relatives of the general of the Sanpin Zuo Longxiang Army, I will call you street gangsters brothers, phew! Even if it is called a brother, I am a brother, you are a brother, and the younger brother comes to knock on the bamboo pole of the eldest brother, and I have one word: hit.
Relying on the sign of the Gushan Marquis's Mansion, Qi Hao quickly gathered a group of people, and faced the leading brother who took him in when he was in trouble, knife to knife, gun to gun.
Street gangsters fights are also sparse and ordinary, but the matter involves a third-grade member of the dynasty, this nature has quietly changed, the local government sent someone to check, and the heart is even more shocked, the party involved in the fight is the eldest brother of the Gushan Marquis, how dare this be slack, the people of Wannian County quickly found the Gushan Marquis's mansion.
Someone reported to Hu Chuan, but Hu Chuan was not in a hurry to report to Li Mao, he settled the visitor in the living room to drink tea, and came to see Li Mao alone.
After a description of adding oil and vinegar, Qi Hao's despicable image of mud that could not be put on the wall was vividly displayed in front of Li Mao.
Li Mao couldn't cry or laugh, and asked Qin Mo what to do, Qin Mo scratched his oily nose and said: "Since you are reluctant to let him go to Fengzhou to suffer, I think it is better to send him to Luoyang, the third lady wants to set up a Haidong branch in the eastern capital, and we have to have someone in black and white." ”
Hu Chuan said: "This is a good idea, Luoyang is unusual, and a trustworthy and capable man must be sent to suppress it." ”
Hu Chuan whipped Qi Hao at the beginning, Qi Hao threatened to retaliate against him at that time and later, Hu Chuan knew that such rotten people were not easy to mess with, so he took the lead and sued him for a trick to drive him out of Chang'an.
Li Mao nodded, and then ordered: "Let Wannian County arrest him for two days first, let him know that there are mountains outside the mountain, and there are people outside the people, so as not to suffer a big loss in the future." As for the rest, let me think about it again. ”
