Volume 1 The Rise of the Wind Chapter 12 Near-Death and Survival
Tang Xijing Chang'an City Suguo Mansion Xiaoxi Yuan
In the small hall with extremely elegant furnishings, Wang Xi moved elegantly and fiddled with the small teapot, the basic tea art is the basic survival skill in the business field, and at this time, Datang was still cooking tea with salt, ginger and other condiments, supplemented by mutton fat, and Cheng Chumo, who was sitting on the opposite side, looked at Wang Xi's movements in a daze.
Cheng Chumo, who took off his armor, revealed his extremely young face, and he was seventeen or eighteen years old, took a sip of tea, and said hatefully to Wang Xi: "It's going to be a novelty, you'd better not lie to a certain family, my father handed over a piece of music and said that there was a ghost valley disciple coming out, and now it has been more than two months, Your Majesty has been putting it on hold, if you are really a person who deceives the world and steals your name, a certain and your father have lost face from the court, but a certain will personally cut you with a thousand knives!" β
Since that day was rescued by Cheng Chumo in Zhangjia Zhuangzi, Wang Xi's mother and son have been living in the west courtyard of Suguo's mansion for two months.
In the past two months, Xu is still suspicious of Wang Xi's identity, not only Li Er ignored him, but even the owner of the mansion, Su Guogong Cheng has never seen the gold, summed up the memories of history, Wang Xi probably understands a little, Li Er, who has just ascended the throne, in the face of the doubts of the government and the opposition, and the contempt of the old party of the family and the hidden prince Li Jiancheng, Wang Xi appeared too suddenly, if the identity of the Guigu Sect is true, it is just like the former Han prince to Shangshan Sihao, the stability of Li Er's throne is of great significance. If Wang Xi gets Li Er's reception and debunks his identity behind him, Li Er will definitely laugh and be generous, and the already unstable government will also be turbulent. Therefore, Li Er's cautiousness Wang Xi can be understood, as for the state of Su Gongcheng biting gold, Wang Xi clearly remembers the evaluation of the history books: this person is a person who knows the festival, is bold in handling things, and is also knowledgeable, loyal and brave, and good at good fortune and misfortune.
The twenty-four ministers of Lingyan Pavilion, few of them can die properly, Cheng Biting Jin can still be in command of the Western Expedition in the Li Zhi Dynasty, and he will be mourned after his death, which has its own merits!
Claiming to be under the Guigu Sect, it is a move that Wang Xi has planned for a long time, so as to find an excuse for his unclear background to say the past, the reputation of Guigu is too great, and in the past two months, Wang Xi has tried his best to show the appearance of a hermit master's son, but unfortunately Xiaoxiyuan is so big, and the things that can be contacted are limited, so Wang Xi can only take out the skill of roasting tea to earn eyeballs.
For Cheng Chumo to fill the teacup again, Wang Xi smiled and said: "Little grandfather don't worry, Your Majesty has not summoned you for a long time, I think it is Your Majesty's new Ninth Five-Year Plan, and the government is busy, not to mention that Wang Xi's mother-in-law and sister-in-law are all in the Guogong Mansion, Xi is not light-hearted, and he will not gamble with his mother and sister-in-law." β
Cheng Chu pondered for a while, and his face eased slightly: "It's true, the person who can cut his wrists and feed his mother in such a situation must also be a man who is loyal and righteous. "After that, the hot tea was drunk.
"I wonder how the matter asked by the little grandfather is going?" Wang Xi asked again.
Cheng Chumo handed a piece of letter paper to Wang Xi in his arms, and then picked up the small teapot and poured himself a drink.
Wang Xi unfolded the letter and saw that it was written: In August, Shangliu rode to Weishui and allied with the Turks, and in September, the Turks retreated. On the fifth day of the first month of September, there was a Turkic cavalry Kou Jingyang, plundering the villages, and sent a thorough investigation, but to no avail.
That's it? More than 100 people in Zhangjia Zhuangzi were slaughtered, and one failure was over?! Wang Xi smashed the table with a fist.
Cheng Chu sighed silently, put down the teacup and said: "Brother don't worry, when the court recuperates for a few years, he will definitely go north to the grassland, and the blood is so shameful, when you and my brother will fight and kill, so that those Hu'er know the bloody nature of my Tang Erlang!" β
Wang Xi solemnly saluted Cheng Chumo with red eyes: "On that day, Zhangjia Zhuangzi was robbed, and his father-in-law was killed by thieves. It's a pity that Xi has no power to tie the chicken, and Brother Meng does not give up, saving Xi from danger and dying. β
Cheng Chumo hurriedly helped Wang Xi up and said: "Brother, where is this, since you and I are brothers, why bother to say these Laoshzi, and don't hide from brothers, I have been in the military for a long time for my brother, and I am used to being rude, you and I talk, don't be so crepe, it's quite unpleasant~β’β’β’"
At that moment, the two couldn't help laughing, and talked for a while, Cheng Chumo immediately agreed to teach Wang Xi some sword and gun kung fu, at that time, regardless of the military generals, he attached great importance to family learning, and there was little transmission, which was an important resource for a family inheritance, so Cheng Chumo was so generous, which made Wang Xi grateful.
"Today, Wen Yanbo is still in the court, the civil and military ministers of the Manchu Dynasty have gone to the city gate to greet him, and my father has also gone, you and I just went to my father's martial arts arena, where the play is open" immediately pulled Wang Xi and walked out.
Wang Xi was thinking that he could finally get out of this small courtyard, and the two were just about to leave the small courtyard, when they saw the housekeeper who had been taking care of Wang Xi's mother and son on weekdays hurriedly came and said, "There is a Taoist who came to visit Xiao Langjun and has arrived in the front yard. β
"Huh?" Cheng Chumo looked at Wang Xi suspiciously: "Since my brother moved into my Cheng Mansion, there have been countless people who have come to visit, but my father strictly refused to do so, who is this, and he even entered the front yard?" β
Wang Xi shook his head, and couldn't say why.
In the quiet room of the Suguo Mansion, a Taoist priest with a white face and an old Taoist robe looked at Wang Xi curiously.
Wang Xi looked at the Taoist priest and said calmly: "I don't know what happened to the Taoist looking for the boy?" You and I don't seem to have seen each other. β
The Taoist priest smiled silently, took out a jade pendant from his sleeve and put it on the table in front of Wang Xi, Wang Xi picked up the jade pendant, only to see that the jade pendant was simple and elegant, and the ancient seal with the words "Ghost Valley" was engraved in the middle.
"Dao Chief, what does this mean, please make it clear" Wang Xi suddenly had a bad premonition.
The Taoist priest smiled mysteriously: "Xiao Langjun asked to see His Majesty under the pretense of the name of the Ghost Valley by the hand of the Duke of the Kingdom, what is the plan?" β
Wang Xi was horrified when he heard this, and tried to restrain his voice from trembling, and said slowly: "Why did the Taoist say this? β
The Taoist priest took the jade pendant, looked at Wang Xi and said: "Because a certain person is the contemporary heir of the Guigu Sect, this is the jade pendant that can only be worn by the Guiguzi in my sect, and a certain family is the contemporary Guiguzi!" β
Rumble! Wang Xideng's heart was like ashes! The fake Li ghost met the real Li Kui!
No!, after many years of hard work in the business field, Wang Xi tried to calm down his emotions, I can't be punctured, the best person in the business field is said to be alive, even if he is Guiguzi, he must be made a fake!
No, if he is Guiguzi, in what capacity did he enter the Suguo Mansion?! Problematic!
"Oh? The Taoist is coming out of the mountain at this moment for the sake of the kid? Or will the Taoist also take this opportunity to become a leader? Wang Xi asked tentatively.
The "Guiguzi" thought for a while and said: "A certain hidden in the mountains, I heard that someone in Chang'an claimed to be a contemporary Guiguzi under the Guigu Gate, so I rushed to see who pretended to be my name, if it was just to seek wealth and nobility, a certain could spare your life, if it was an impostor to insult my reputation in Guigu, it would make you a dilemma of life and death!" β
"The Taoist has not answered me yet, but he is also going to become an official?" Wang Xi continued to ask.
"Of course" Guiguzi said: "My Guigu has been in seclusion for many years, and it is time to go out of the mountain, so that the world will know that the name of my Guigu has not died!" β
Wang Xi smiled, Guiguzi's reputation is too great, so big that any of his deeds will be praised endlessly, and Wang Xi has been in the Tang Dynasty since he came to Datang, and all the events he has experienced are consistent with Zizhi Tongjian, even Zhang Gongjin was defeated and Wen Yanbo was captured, and then Taizong Weishui's alliance ordered Jieli to be released, which is enough to prove that the Tang Dynasty at this moment is the Tang Dynasty in history, and the history of the Tang Dynasty does not have any record of Guiguzi!
Wang Xi leaned forward, looked at the Taoist priest and said, "Who are you?" Who sent you? An important minister in the court? Family? β
"What?" The Taoist priest was shocked.
"No" Wang Xi said again: "You can easily enter and exit the Suguo Mansion, almost no one in the court can do it, so there is only one possibility, you are a person in the palace?" Hundred Riders? β
"What?" The Taoist priest's expression changed from horror to confusion.
Guessed wrong, Wang Xi touched his nose in embarrassment, wild history is harmful, the legendary Taizong's spy agency Baiqi Division does not seem to existβ’β’β’β’β’β’
"Come on, go and invite Cheng Xiaogong to come, just say that there is a rogue Taoist priest in the house, presumably the little grandfather has not moved his fists and feet for many days, and he is already impatient" Wang Xi was afraid that he would lose too much, and shouted out immediately.
The Taoist priest laughed: "Is Wang Xi under the Guigu Sect?" Haha, it's really interesting, we'll have a meeting later!" With that, he arched his hand, and hurriedly got up and left.
It's dangerous! Wang Xi didn't realize that his back was already soaked with sweat, and he almost died!
Just thinking about it, I heard a loud voice outside the door: "A certain family is just going out for a while, why are there flies in the house?" Ouyang Yin, no matter how you are favored by Your Majesty, if you let you see you in the mansion again, you will be killed on the spot! A certain family wants to see if it is better than a mouse that cannot be seen in the light of sight! β
Wang Xi hurriedly walked out, only to see the Taoist priest just now sneering: "Why should the grandfather be angry, since the grandfather doesn't like it, he will say goodbye." Then he hurriedly walked away, looking extremely embarrassed.
Wang Xi guessed that this was probably the legendary Cheng Biting Jin, and immediately said: "Grass people Wang Xi visited his grandfather, thank him for his help, and let his grandfather β’β’β’β’β’ for many days."
Cheng Yanjin waved his hand impatiently: "Cut blood and feed relatives, he is a good boy, he doesn't need those red tape in a certain mansion, he is more close to Mo and Liang, and now the government is gradually stable, I think His Majesty will summon him soon, and then show what he has learned, and let Lao Cheng touch the light of the children of the fairy family!" Ha ha! β
