Chapter 41: What a Surprise!

"Husband, this concubine body is not needed!" In the early morning Hou Mansion, Xiangcheng looked at Zhao Chen in front of him pitifully, and whispered to Zhao Chen in an almost pleading tone. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. biqUgE。 ο½‰ο½Žο½†ο½

It is almost May now, and it has been nearly two months since Zhao Chen came back from the mountains, during this time, the smallpox epidemic has long passed, and the blockaded Wannian County has already been lifted.

Not only that, during this period of time, Zhao Chen and Sun Daochang have also solved the problem of cowpox, but at this stage, although cowpox has been developed, it is a pity that it cannot be used in large quantities.

The thing that Xiangcheng begged Zhao Chen just now was for cowpox, since cowpox has been developed, there is no reason, and it is natural to use it for the people around him first.

It's just that the process of injecting cowpox is a bit painful, and you need to use a knife to cut out a cross knife on the muscle, and then bury the prepared cowpox into the knife!

And Xiangcheng listened to Zhao Chen talk about this process, so at this time, when they were about to go out, they were still begging Zhao Chen, afraid that they would not be able to stand the pain.

"What a person, still so ignorant!" Listening to Xiangcheng's pitiful pleading, Zhao Chen sighed helplessly, looked at Xiangcheng in front of him and said: "This matter is not a joke, you are not unclear about the battle some time ago, do you need to explain it to you again?" ”

"But... Kefujun, the concubine is afraid of pain! Zhao Chen's reasoning, Xiangcheng naturally understood, therefore, hearing Zhao Chen's words, Xiangcheng immediately lowered his head, pouted and said pitifully: "That's a knife to scratch the meat, the concubine hurts to death when she thinks about it!" ”

"That's no way around it!" Zhao Chen saw that Xiangcheng said pitiful, so he had to sigh helplessly, and said to Xiangcheng: "Besides, our family Xi'er is also going, you look at how old this kid is, he is not afraid, are you still afraid of this mother?" ”

"Husband!" In front of so many people in the room, Zhao Chen actually compared her with Xiao Zhao Xi, and no matter how much he went around Xiangcheng, he couldn't help but feel hot at this time, lowered his head, and shouted at Zhao Chen embarrassedly.

"Yes, sister!" Hearing Zhao Chen's words, Qin Yuyan, who was originally holding Xiao Zhao Xi on the side, couldn't help covering her mouth at this time, and said with a smile at Xiangcheng: "You are a mother, aren't you as brave as our family Xi'er?" ”

When Qin Yuyan said this, he also raised his hand, gently patted Xiao Zhao Xi's fart, looked at Xiao Zhao Xi with an innocent face in his arms, and said with a smile: "Our family Xi'er is the bravest, isn't it?" ”

"Yes, Xi'er is brave!" It's rare to be praised by his father and Erniang in front of so many people, Xiao Zhao Xi's face was suddenly filled with satisfaction, his eyes were round, and he waved his small fist vigorously at Erniang, who was smiling.

"Silly boy, I hope you'll be like this later!" This little ancestor, since he was born, has been spoiled by all the people, and the big ones have not been planted, Xiangcheng is a little afraid to imagine, what will be the reaction of this little ancestor later.

At this time, a room full of people were amused by the two girls in front of them to cover their mouths and laugh, it was the wheat who had always been reserved, and when they heard Xiangcheng's muttering at this time, they couldn't help but cover their mouths and snicker.

However, her smile didn't last long, and she suddenly saw Zhao Chen's gaze, suddenly looked at her, and said in an unquestionable tone: "Wheat will go later!" ”

Where was he just now, he was provoked by Xiangcheng to secretly laugh at wheat, at first hearing Zhao Chen's words, a pair of eyes suddenly looked at Zhao Chen innocently, but then, as if he thought of something, the originally innocent eyes were suddenly full of shyness, and he lowered his head shyly, that look, it was clearly a Huaichun girl!

"Pinch meβ€”what?" Zhao Chen, who had just finished ordering wheat and was about to turn around, was cold and had a pain in his waist, and when he turned around to look with his teeth in confusion, he saw Ji Ning'er behind him, squinting his eyes and looking at him with a strange expression.

When I went to see Qin Yuyan and Xiangcheng again, I saw the two women who were fine just now, and at this time, all of a sudden, like Ji Ning'er, became a triplet with a heart, looking at him like a resentful woman, and that gaze made Zhao Chen's scalp a little numb.

"Master Hou, there is... There's a letter! However, just when the atmosphere in the room was about to condense into frost, it was at this moment that Zhang Lu's voice suddenly came from outside, and immediately, Zhang Lu was seen holding a letter and hurriedly coming in from outside.

"Where?" What a savior, Zhao Chen felt a sense of relief when he saw Zhang Lu coming in, and without waiting for the three women in the room to react, he took the lead in facing Zhang Lu and asked.

"Master Hou, it's a letter from Lingnan!" At this time, Zhang Lu obviously felt the atmosphere in the room, so when he heard Zhao Chen's inquiry, his eyes first glanced cautiously, and the three hostesses in the room whispered to Zhao Chen.

"From Lingnan?" Hearing Zhang Lu's words, Zhao Chen's eyebrows suddenly wrinkled, and then, he couldn't help but take the letter from Zhang Lu's hand, couldn't wait to open it, and read it quickly.

"Xianggong, is something happening in Lingnan?" The hidden door is in Lingnan, therefore, after hearing the letter from Lingnan, Ji Ning'er's eyes have been staring at Zhao Chen's expression, and when she saw Zhao Chen's expression, which gradually became solemn, Ji Ning'er couldn't help but ask.

"It's okay!" Hearing Ji Ning'er's inquiry, Zhao Chen's gaze moved away from the letter, first sighed slightly, then raised his head, and said with a light smile at Ji Ning'er who had a worried face.

When these words fell, Zhao Chen put the letter away, chuckled at the few women in the room, and said, "Let's go, Sun Daochang is still waiting at this time!" ”

Something happened in Lingnan, although Zhao Chen didn't say it, but the three women in front of him were all accompanied by Zhao Chen day and night, how could they not see it, but since Zhao Chen didn't say it, they couldn't ask anymore.

Outside the gate of the Hou Mansion, Shi and Mu Qiu had already set up the carriage, and when Zhao Chen and Qin Yuyan came out, they immediately drove the carriage and went straight to Yongpingfang in Wannian County.

It's just that as soon as the carriage left Fang Street, it was stopped on Suzaku Street by a chamberlain from the palace, and when the carriage stopped, the chamberlain who listened to it said respectfully to Zhao Chen on the carriage: "Master Hou, Your Majesty is waiting for you in the palace at this time!" ”

Hearing the words of the servant in front of him, Zhao Chen suddenly sighed, looking at this situation, don't think about it, presumably Li Er already knows about Lingnan.

"It's okay, it's okay, it's still important to get down to business!" Just now in the mansion, I received a letter from Lingnan, and in a blink of an eye, His Majesty was anxious to enter the palace by himself, and Qin Yuyan immediately said to Zhao Chen empathetically.

"Alright then!" Hearing Qin Yuyan's empathetic words, Zhao Chen suddenly smiled bitterly at the three women in the carriage, and as he spoke, he got out of the carriage and watched the two carriages of the Hou Mansion go straight to Wannian County, only then did he turn around and go straight to the palace with his inner servants.

"Coming?" Still in the Ganlu Palace, when Zhao Chen entered, Li Er was sitting behind the imperial case, looking at a note, hearing the sound of Zhao Chen coming in, Li Er didn't raise his head, pointed to a futon opposite Zhao Chen, and said.

"I don't know what Your Majesty called Weichen into the palace for?" After Li Er finally finished watching the recital, Zhao Chen raised his head, looked at the imperial case, sat up straight and asked Li Er, who was sitting up straight.

"Meng Rang is dead, you must already know about it!" Hearing Zhao Chen's words, Li Er first took a sip of tea slowly, and then, as if nothing happened, he took out a note from a large pile of notes on the table, shook it at Zhao Chen and said.

"Wei Chen has just learned about this!" Hearing Li Er's straightforward words, Zhao Chen suddenly sighed and said to Li Er.

Just now in the Hou Mansion, the letter from Lingnan that Zhao Chen received, this is this matter, Meng Rang Lao'er died, and he jumped off the cliff in Meiling to die!

Regarding the death of Meng Rang Lao'er, Zhao Chen is no exception, this old guy was a big hero back then, even if the Tang Dynasty was established, he still did not change his ambition.

It's just that later, his wishful thinking hit Zhao Chen, and he didn't want to steal chickens and rice in the end, and Zhao Chen turned it into a yin, and he has always been regarded as a laborer, responsible for opening up the Meiling Ancient Road.

It's just that Xiaoxiong is Xiaoxiong after all, and being so controlled by Zhao Chen is not a taste in his heart after all, so some time ago, the old guy finally couldn't bear the humiliation and jumped off Meiling, ending his ridiculous life.

Meng Rang died when he died, but when the old guy died, his subordinates who had been following him took advantage of the situation to rebel in Meiling, robbed the gunpowder used to blow up the mountain on the construction site, not to mention, and also used many of the people sent to the construction to pay tribute to Meng Rang's old man.

"I asked you to enter the palace just to ask, what are your plans for Lingnan?" Hearing Zhao Chen's words, Li Er's body leaned back slightly, his eyes looked directly at Zhao Chen, and he asked casually.

If someone rebels, it is meaningless, naturally it is the first time to send troops to encircle and suppress, especially, these rebel guys still robbed the gunpowder of the construction site, the power of that thing, needless to say, Li Er is also clear.

It's just that Lingnan is run by Zhao Chen after all, not to mention, Zhao Chen is still the general manager of Lingnan now, no matter what kind of purpose, he naturally has to consult Zhao Chen's opinion.

"And what does Your Majesty mean?" Hearing Li Er's inquiry, Zhao Chen was not in a hurry to answer, but looked at Li Er, met Li Er's gaze, and asked rhetorically.

"I'm asking you what you think!" was asked by Zhao Chen, which made Li Er a little unhappy, so he looked at Zhao Chen's gaze, was slightly cold, and said in a somewhat stiff tone.

"Okay!" Seeing that Li Er was unhappy, Zhao Chen quickly put away his tentative thoughts, took a slight breath, looked at Li Er and said: "Since Your Majesty said it, then Weichen will tell us what Weichen thinks, if Your Majesty disagrees, then Weichen didn't say it!" ”

These words fell, and without waiting for Li Er to express his position, Zhao Chen looked at Li Er and said: "The matter of Lingnan, Weichen has also received a letter, so when Weichen entered the palace just now, he was also thinking about this matter!" ”

"Tell me about it!" Hearing Zhao Chen's words, Li Er picked up the teacup casually, took a sip comfortably, waved his hand at Zhao Chen, and said.

"Hmm!" Hearing Li Er's words, Zhao Chen nodded slightly, and then said with a slight deep groan: "Weichen thinks that this matter can be big or small, those people Weichen have all seen it at the beginning, but they are all poor people, without Meng Rang Lao'er, they are just a rabble!" ”

These words fell, and without waiting for Li Er to speak, Zhao Chen continued: "So, what Weichen means is that Your Majesty doesn't have to make a big move, send someone over to suppress it, and it will basically fall apart!" ”

"Hmph, that's easy!" Hearing Zhao Chen's seemingly relaxed words, Li Er, who had been silent all along, suddenly let out a light snort with amusement, looked at Zhao Chen and said, "I heard that in just a few days, they have gathered tens of thousands of people, including gunpowder, how can they be easily suppressed?" ”

"Your Majesty!" When Zhao Chen heard Li Er's words, he immediately sighed slightly, looked at Li Er and said: "Weichen has just said that those people without Meng Rang are just a group of rabble, no matter how many people there are, they can't make big waves!" ”

β€œβ€¦ Okay, then I'll ask you! Hearing Zhao Chen's words, Li Er didn't know what to think, he was slightly silent, and suddenly looked at Zhao Chen and asked, "Since you said so, who are you going to recommend to Lingnan?" Or, are you ready to go to Lingnan yourself? ”

"Your Majesty thinks too much!" Hearing Li Er's words, Zhao Chen suddenly secretly despised in his heart, and when he raised his head, he looked at Li Er and said: "The person who can do this, in fact, doesn't need to be in the Chang'an faction at all, there are suitable candidates in Lingnan!" ”

"Cheng Chumo?" Hearing Zhao Chen's words, Li Er's eyebrows suddenly wrinkled slightly, looked at Zhao Chen, and asked.

"It's not!" Hearing Li Er's inquiry, Zhao Chen suddenly shook his head, looked at Li Er and said, "This person, Your Majesty also knows, is Ma Zhou, who is now in charge of the history of the assassination of Nanfuzhou!" (To be continued.) )
