Chapter 500: Difficult Brothers
The whole of Lu'an was shocked by an explosive news, and everyone would ask each other a few words when they met. Sometimes when it comes to excitement, several people bow their heads and whisper, all with ** smiles on their faces. Cuixianglou is a social place for the upper class of Hengshan country, and the news in it is more accurate and detailed. A guy stretched out his ears and listened excitedly to what was said on the table next to him, and was slapped on the back of the head by Lao Jia. The fellow stuck out his tongue and hurried to go about his business.
"Shopkeeper Zhou, have you heard about the recent incident?" There are several shopkeepers at this table, and Lao Jia knows them all, but the one sitting facing south feels unfamiliar.
Shopkeeper Zhou waved his hand: "What can I hear as a businessman, Shopkeeper Huang obviously asked the wrong person, you should ask Hu Yushi." ”
The shopkeeper Huang smiled and said: "Yes, yes, yes, it's really wrong, Hu Yushi is the most famous imperial history in Hengshan Kingdom, if he says it's not fake, then it can't be fake, Hu Yushi?" Can you tell us a few of our brothers? ”
Hu Yushi glared at a few people: "When will the secrets of the palace be able to be discussed so grandly?" Hum! I'm too lazy to entangle with you! Hu Yushi drank his wine glass in one gulp, got up and left.
Shopkeeper Zhou smiled: "Yes, Shopkeeper Huang, you have provoked this, be careful that their Hu family gives you small shoes to wear." ”
Shopkeeper Huang smiled: "If it weren't for his father's face, I wouldn't have drunk with him, what can a little imperial history do?" Rest assured, Old Man Hu will not be as knowledgeable as his disdainful son. He turned his head and glanced at the departing Hu Yushi, and asked the shopkeeper Huang: "I heard that the king is not very angry, and he is still lying on the couch. ”
Shopkeeper Zhang, who had not spoken, smiled: "How do you know if you don't have one?" I heard that the shopkeeper Huang just accepted a concubine a few days ago, who is younger than Huang Gongzi, which is the root cause of the trouble. ”
"Hahaha......" Shopkeeper Zhou laughed: "Yes, Shopkeeper Zhang is right, Shopkeeper Huang hurriedly went back to take the concubine off, or gave it to Huang Gongzi, so as not to become a talking point when we drink in the future." ”
The shopkeeper Huang smiled: "How can my Huang family's style be compared to others? I'm definitely not worried about that. ”
"You mean, the king's door style is not as good as your Huang family?"
"Don't talk nonsense!" The shopkeeper Huang looked left and right, and said in a low voice: "But to be honest, it's really not as good as my Huang family's style, don't say anything else, the matter of the county lord is already known to the world, and it's not strange that there is a second son's matter, you look at it, who knows how many ugly things have not been revealed!" ”
Lao Jia shook his head, turned around and went into the backyard. Su Ren was practicing swords in the courtyard, and the swordsmanship taught to him by the head of Chongxu Dao back then was said to be able to prolong life and strengthen the body. Since Su Ren learned, he has never practiced well. Today, I don't know which tendon is wrong again, so I practiced swords in the yard at noon. Huang Shisan and Manniu stood aside, looking at Su Ren's swordsmanship and frowning at the same time, worried about the slow posture, not to mention killing people, I am afraid that even chickens will not be killed.
Lao Jia didn't disturb Su Ren's Yaxing, and waited for Su Ren to make a stop, and then poured a cup of tea and brought it to Su Ren: "Sir's swordsmanship is becoming more and more exquisite!" ”
Su Ren took the tea, turned his head to look at Huang Shisan and Manniu who were standing under the eaves, and smiled at Lao Jia: "Lao Jia, don't come here in our brothers, just look at their faces, you will know how my swordsmanship is, these two fools can't look down on them, let alone others." ”
Lao Jia smiled: "What Mr. said is that the villain wrote it down." ”
Su Ren drank tea, wiped the sweat on his head, motioned for Lao Jia to sit down and said, "What?" What's the matter? ”
Lao Jia said: "It's nothing, it's just that the king of Huainan has locked up his second son, saying that it is a woman, with a nose and eyes, seeing that Mr. has not gone out in the past few days, this matter has been full of wind and rain in Lu'an, I came to tell Mr. ”
Su Ren smiled: "There is nothing to avoid about the little of the princes and nobles, no one is ashamed, so we can't take care of it, this is the private matter of King Hengshan, don't interfere." ”
"The villain understands!" Lao Jia nodded: "By the way, there is one more thing, the prince of Hengshan personally visited the general Zhang Guangchang, according to our people, the two talked very speculatively, and talked in the house for a whole hour, did not let the subordinates serve, I don't know what to say." ”
"Oh? This is a new situation, with Zhang Guangchang's personality, he will not fall to Liu Shuang, since he is so blatantly talking to Liu Shuang, he should be instructed by King Hengshan, it seems that Liu Shuang has been living too comfortably these days, and he has long forgotten what I told him, this is looking for death. ”
Lao Jia hurriedly said, "In that case, do you want to find Mr. Wei?" ”
Su Ren shook his head: "No, Wei Qing will not wade into this troubled water, how Han Xin, the king of Chu, fell to death step by step, Wei Qing knows very well." ”
Lao Jia frowned, he didn't understand why Su Ren suddenly mentioned Han Xin, could it be that there was any connection between this Wei Qing and Han Xin, and he didn't figure it out after thinking about it for a long time. Hurriedly nodded: "No, the villain understands, there is something ahead, and the villain takes his leave." ”
Su Ren nodded, and Lao Jia got up and left. Huang Shisan immediately came over, looked at Su Ren, and was about to speak, Su Ren opened his mouth first: "How did you do it?" ”
Huang 13 said: "Everything is in order, just wait for Mr. to order, when will you do it?" ”
"Sooner rather than later, tonight! Today is the fourteenth, the moon should be good, and it is a good time to admire the moon. ”
Liu Shuang was very happy and got his satisfactory answer from Zhang Guangchang yesterday. At the beginning, it was not smooth, Liu Shuang coerced and lured Zhang Guangchang according to what Xi Ci said, and successfully persuaded Zhang Guangchang to stand on his side under the pretext that the Zhang family was a general. With Zhang Guangchang's joining, Liu Shuang felt that it would not be difficult for him to force the palace now.
Wen has the state minister Xi Ci, and the military has the general Zhang Guangchang. What kind of confessor Wei Qing, what Guanglu doctor, Zhonglang General Su Ren? Liu Shuang grinned at the corner of his mouth. Without them, I have the same way, and I can sit firmly on the throne of the world. What's more, Liu Xiao's ugly thing was noticed by Liu Ci, this is really a gift from God to himself, in the entire Huainan Kingdom, who else can threaten his status except Liu Xiao.
If you're in a good mood, you naturally have to drink two glasses. Alone, while enjoying the singing and dancing, the two courtesans on the left and right said flattering words to Liu Shuang, and Liu Shuang's heart was a mess.
Just as the song and dance were at their most exciting, the door was suddenly slammed open. Xi Ci looked angry and glared at Liu Shuang. Liu Shuang said with a smile: "The prime minister came just in time, accompany this son to enjoy it, it's really boring to drink without anyone to accompany you." ”
Xi Ci didn't move, just stared at Liu Shuang. Liu Shuang shouted twice, and seeing that Xi Ci did not react, he said to the courtesan beside him: "The minister of state is angry, blame the prince for not inviting him, okay, okay, the son of the world is wrong, I apologize to the minister here." ”
As he spoke, Liu Shuang was about to bow down. After all, there is a difference between the lord and the minister, even if Xi Ci has a belly of anger, he can't attack at this time, and hurriedly grabbed Liu Shuang: "Shizi, something is wrong!" You're still drinking here? ”
Liu Shuang was stunned: "According to the strategy of the prime minister, this prince has already persuaded the general, what else can be a big deal?" ”
Xi Ci stopped talking and looked left and right. Liu Shuang waved his hand, sent all the courtesans and servants away, sat crookedly on the couch, and poured himself a glass of wine: "Can you say it now?" It's just you and me. ”
Xi Ci sighed and lowered his voice: "Just now came news from the palace that the dancing girl who was favored by the king who was insulted by the second prince was killed!" He also cut out the child in his womb and put it on the couch with blood. ”
"What?" Liu Shuang's wine woke up suddenly: "Who moved the hand?" ”
Xi Ci shook his head: "I don't know yet, but I found something in the house of the dancing girl, and I heard that it is related to Liu Hong." ”
Liu Shuang thought about it, and the nervous expression on his face suddenly turned into a smile: "Hehehe, isn't this a good thing?" It is not surprising that Liu Hong killed my relatives last time, and this time he killed the dancing girl who was favored by his father. ”
Xi Ci hated and hated: "The son of the world is confused! There are already rumors that this matter was done by the prince, and the purpose was to target the second son and deliberately frame Liu Hong. ”
"Smack!" Liu Shuang slapped his palm on several cases: "Who spread rumors about this son?" Check, find out, never forgive! ”
Xi Ci sighed: "No matter who it is, the key is whether the king believes it or not, when I came, the king had already summoned the general into the palace, and I am afraid that this matter will be investigated." ”
"Zhang Guangchang has entered the palace? Then don't worry, you won't find out to us. ”
"Shizi!" Xi Ci's anxious voice changed: "Do you still think that the general is sincerely surrendering to us?" Zhang Guangchang agreed so easily, I always feel that there is a problem, I can't figure it out that the king deliberately asked Zhang Guangchang to promise us in order to be wary of the prince, if this is the case, it means that the king has begun to be suspicious of the prince! ”
Liu Shuang drank a lot of wine, his head hurt a little, he held his forehead with his hand, endured the discomfort, and said for a long time: "Prime Minister, you have to think of a way, this matter is definitely not done by someone I sent!" ”
Xi Ci shook his head: "It's too late, I suggested that the prince should not rush to contact Zhang Guangchang, the prince insisted on going his own way, and now the situation is also at a loss, I'm afraid there is only ......"
"Who? Who else? ”
Xi Ci pointed to the west. Liu Shuang was puzzled and looked at Xi Ci. Xi Ci said: "Su Ren! Su Ren is a person sent by the imperial court, although what he did has nothing to do with my Hengshan Kingdom, but Su Ren is His Majesty's confidant, if he comes forward to speak for the prince, the king may be able to let the prince go. ”
"But I didn't do it!"
"Lao Chen knows and believes that it was not the son of the world, but the entire Lu'an said that it was the son of the world, and the three of them became tigers!"
Liu Shuang wanted to cry without tears, and sat on the ground: "Who the hell did this to me!" ”
Xi Ci was at a loss. It stands to reason that Liu Xiao is most likely to kill people, but Liu Xiao has been arrested, except for Liu Xiao, who really can't think of anyone who wants to frame Liu Shuang like this.
