The celebration stopped at the point, and there was no further discussion.

Everyone is a smart person, just click on it, there is no need to say too deeply. The reason why this was done was also to let Mao Wang's family get out of the incident in the future. Yan Qing felt that the white-clothed Maitreya had a great plan. With his words today, if he intercedes for Mao Wang's family in the future, it will be a matter of course without any suspicion.

I am concerned about national affairs, and it is the duty of a scholar.

Even though I am still white, the book teaches me to share my worries for the king...... In this way, the matter of Mao Wang's family of three joining the white-clothed Maitreya can be said clearly and clearly.

It was getting late, and Pei Xingyan and the three of them were ready to go back.

However, they agreed that from tomorrow, they would move to Zhuyuan.

The luggage has been moved, and Zheng Yanqing can't refuse. It's just that the three of them came over, and Xu Shiji was going to be wronged.

That night, Yan Qing asked Dang Shijie, Dang Shiying, and Dang Shixiong to help and moved Xu Shiji's things to Yanqing's bamboo building. Yan Qing lived upstairs, Xu Shiji lived downstairs, and Mao Xiaonian temporarily moved to the bamboo house in front.

Xu Shiji didn't have any opinions.

On the contrary, he is happy to live with Yanqing, so that it is convenient for him to play and communicate with Zheng Yanqing at night.

But Mao Xiaonian was a little unhappy and kept pouting. Wouldn't you be far away from the young master when you moved to the bamboo house?

Zheng Yanqing enlightened again, and Mao Xiaonian was a little happier.

At night, it began to rain.

This winter rain has caused the temperature to plummet...... The rain was not very heavy, but it was very entangled, and the biting chill was even more unbearable.

The lively and noisy Fengdu City in the past is closed before dawn.

The air dead wind lamp outside the Dading Restaurant, flickering on and off, swaying gently in the winter rain and cold wind, seems to be weak.

A horse-drawn carriage drove into Fengdu, crossed a small road, and stopped at the corner gate of Dading Restaurant.

The coachman stepped forward and tapped lightly on the door, and the corner door opened in a moment. The carriage entered through the corner gate and came to the backyard of the restaurant.

A house slave came running with an oil-paper umbrella.

Immediately following the curtain of the car, a person got out of the car.

"Second master, the eldest master is waiting for you in the study, saying that you are back, go see him immediately."

"I see!"

The man took the oil-paper umbrella from the hand of the house slave, suddenly turned around again, and said to the groom who was driving: "Xiaoba, park the car and go down to rest...... Oh, the day after tomorrow in Tongyuan City's almsgiving, I won't go. You and your brothers must take care of it. ”

The coachman hurriedly bowed, "Master, don't worry, Xiaoba will definitely live up to his mission." ”

The man, holding an oil-paper umbrella, walked through the backyard of the restaurant, and soon stopped in front of a room. Putting the oil-paper umbrella aside, he knocked on the door, and then, without waiting for anyone in the room to respond, he opened the door and stepped in.

A treacherous glow like a spiritual snake suddenly appeared, and a sword of cold light pointed at his throat.

He smiled slightly, but he didn't see any movement on his feet, and his body suddenly stepped back, clinging to the door panel.

"Big brother, why are you so nervous?"

But the sword did not stop there, and continued to stab, and made a soft sound like a snake's groan. The smile suddenly disappeared, and his face immediately became a little ugly. However, when the cold blade of the sword touched his throat, it stopped advancing.

"Big brother, what do you mean by that?"

The man with the sword, with gray hair, barefoot and white clothes, has a dignified appearance.

If Yan Qing saw it at this time, he would definitely recognize the person with the sword as the Xiangzhou merchant Husky who stopped him from fighting with Pei Xingyan in the Luopu Library. At this moment, the husky's face was completely devoid of the warm smile of the day in the library, replaced by a hint of coldness and harshness. His lips were bare, and his mustache was gone...... "Beard, who let you preach in Luoyang without authorization?" ”

"Huh?"

The man who was called a beard was also dressed in a white shirt, with a black beard fluttering under his chin, which was quite bookish.

"Before we came to Luoyang, the hostess instructed us to first seek a firm foothold, and then seek development. Now that we are not on our heels, you begin to preach...... Do you think your little actions can be hidden from my eyes? ”

The handsome face of the beard twitched slightly, and he forced a smile: "Big brother, you put down the sword first and listen to my explanation." ”

The slightest coldness coming from the blade of the sword made the beard not dare to act rashly.

He had no choice but to tilt his head back and stick it to the door panel. He knew very well that the guy in front of him was not joking with him. When he was in power, he belonged to the master who killed people without blinking. Except for the dead lord, only the master's family can order him now. Although he and he are brothers, he will not show mercy.

"I'm listening to ......"

The sword in the husky's hand did not move away.

"The younger brother didn't want to go against the wishes of the master, but seeing that the situation was gradually stabilizing at this time, the younger brother was also anxious.

The young master is getting older, is it possible for him to continue to live this kind of disgraceful life like us? Pity him until now, he can't return to his ancestors and use his surname in a dignified manner, I feel uncomfortable. ”

"So, you're going to find the Broken Wild?"

Hu Zi was shocked in his heart, and said with a forced smile: "Big brother is really powerful...... The younger brother didn't want to hide it from the eldest brother, but he just felt that if we wanted to open up the situation in Luoyang, there must be someone behind us. Po Ye Tou is also a subordinate of the lord, and he has enough power, so the younger brother thought that it would be convenient for us to gain a foothold by contacting him. ”

The husky slowly lowered the sword in his hand, but still stared at the beard with a sharp gaze.

"Broken wild, I can't believe it!"

After a while, after he returned the bookcase, he said in a deep voice: "You know, when the old mastermind leaked, I kept wondering who leaked the news...... Thinking about it, it seems that this broken wild head is the most suspicious. ”

"Huh?"

"It's just that I don't have any evidence in my hands now, and my mother didn't let me act rashly and exposed my identity.

Otherwise, I would never tolerate the Broken Wild Family living until now...... In short, you can use the broken head as a guise, but you must not trust him. Beard, we've been putting up with it for twenty years, and I really don't want to have a bad time at this time. ”

Beard swallowed, walked over slowly, and sat down across from the husky.

"Also, why did you create rumors before?"

"This ......"

Hu Zi hesitated for a moment, and said softly: "Is the eldest brother talking about the Banyuanjun and the little lady of the Pei family?" Hehe, this really has nothing to do with me. It was a few days ago that Poye Tou Chengtoe came to me and asked me to try to spread rumors and instigate the contradiction between Mai Zizhong and Banyuanjun. I was thinking about how to get on the line with the Po Yetou family, and the Zheng family and the Mai family have nothing to do with us...... So he agreed to break the wild head and toe and ordered people to spread some news in the community. ”

"Nonsense!"

The husky's eyes flashed, "It's better to ignore that little beast's business." The Iron Scepter was a close confidant of the thief chieftain, and he was very powerful; Although the Zheng clan in Xingyang is not as good as it was back then, this Kwantung clan is intertwined, and if you and I are traced, it will delay the lord's major affairs. Our priority is not to proselytize, nor to make friends with the powerful.

We must first stand on our heels, and then slowly try to penetrate it.

Stop preaching immediately, and don't get too close to the Broken Wild Family. On my side, I have already made plans. ”

"Since the eldest brother commanded, the younger brother did it."

The beard agreed, got up to take his leave, and prepared to leave.

Just as he was about to open the door, the husky's cold voice suddenly sounded behind him: "Beard, you have to remember that your and my surnames were gone twenty years ago. From now on, everything has to go according to plan. If you let me know that you are an assertion, don't blame me for not talking about the two decades of friendship. ”

The corners of his mouth twitched, and he turned around and said, "Don't worry, big brother, little brother knows!" ”

Walking down the cloister, Beard came to a secluded courtyard.

There was an ancient locust tree growing in the yard that needed to be hugged by two people, and the beard suddenly stepped forward and slammed his fist on the trunk.

I saw the trunk of the tree trembling, and the dry branches fell one after another.

"Husky, don't be complacent!"

He gritted his teeth and squeezed a curse out between his teeth.

At this moment, a voice came from outside the courtyard: "Master, the carriage has been set up, do you have any other orders?" ”

"Xiaoba, you tell me to go down, and after two days, the almsgiving will be temporarily stopped!"

…… It was dawn and the sky was clear.

The sun shone into the bamboo garden, and the dragon's tooth grass under the verandah showed a withered yellow color.

A light rain overnight made the bamboo garden more cold and quiet. Yan Qing got up early in the morning, jogged around the bamboo garden with Xu Shiji, and after moving his body and bones, he began to practice. Xu Shiji's kung fu is different from Yan Qing's, and he feels that the guiding health preservation technique is too cumbersome, so although Qing teaches him, he is reluctant to learn it.

Xu Shiji preferred to practice swords and dances, and ran out of the bamboo garden on horseback.

Zheng Yanqing, on the other hand, contacted the guidance technique in a secluded place in the forest, stretched the fascia, and strengthened the qi and blood. After a set of guidance techniques are practiced, in front of the thick bamboo at the mouth of the bowl, use the tricks of five bird fists to bombard the bamboo stem with one punch until you sweat profusely.

Mao Xiaonian held a towel and stood aside to watch.

When Yanqing finished practicing, she stepped forward with a towel.

"Young master, wipe it off."

Yan Qing took the towel and wiped the sweat clean.

"Xiao Nian, Pei Xingyan will come over after a while, and we will go to contact Juju.

You ask Aunt Mao to prepare more meals and boil more water, I'm afraid we will have to wash our bodies when we come back. ”

"Well, Xiao Nian wrote it down."

The two walked back side by side, and when they were about to reach the bamboo building, Zheng Yanqing suddenly asked: "Xiao Nian, in two days, that white-clothed Maitreya will be almsgiving." ”

Mao Xiaonian said: "If you calculate the time, it's about the same."

My dad was discussing this with my mother yesterday...... Young master, I heard from those homeless people that there seemed to be some turmoil outside. Master, do you think those bad guys will come to our side? I'm really worried. ”

Zheng Yanqing smiled and reached out to pat Mao Xiaonian's shoulder.

"This kind of thing will be disturbed by others, but I think that there is no possibility of any turmoil on the Luoyang side at present."

"Yes, that's good!"

"Xiao Nian, just talk to me about these words in private, don't spread them outside, there will be trouble."

Mao Xiaonian responded softly, and the two of them had come to the front of the bamboo building.

Zheng Yanqing was about to go in, but he heard a rapid sound of horses' hooves outside the forest.

He looked back and saw a horse hurrying into the forest from outside the forest. The knight on the horse reined in his horse in front of the bamboo tower and threw himself off the saddle.

"Uncle Zheng, why are you here?"

Zheng Yanqing recognized at a glance that the knight was Zheng Weishan, the housekeeper of the Zheng Mansion in Luoyang City.

Since Zheng Renji left Luoyang, Zheng Weishan rarely came to Zhuyuan because of complicated things. I saw that he was dressed in plain white and wore a linen scarf, but he was dressed in filial piety. Zheng Yanqing couldn't help but be stunned, and hurriedly walked over to meet him.

"What's going on at home?"

Zheng Weishan said: "Xingyang sent a letter, and the eldest lord said in front of him...... Let's go! ”

"Ahh

Zheng Yanqing was taken aback.

Sir, I'm talking about Master Zheng. In fact, Yan Qing would not be very surprised by the death of Zheng Dashi.

After all, when Zheng Renji left Luoyang before, he had already said this kind of words. But Yanqing was still surprised. If nothing else, Zheng Dashi is gone, and there will be turmoil on the side of An Yuantang...... He can't say too deep feelings for Zheng Dashi.

However, when he was a child, Zheng Dashi was not too bad to him, and he inevitably felt some sadness in his heart.

"Then my grandfather ......"

Zheng Weishan said: "The eldest prince sent someone over, let me tell you, I'm afraid it will be difficult for the uncle to come back for a while."

When the eldest master leaves, things will definitely be complicated on the Xingyang side. The eldest prince hopes that the uncle can stay there and help him survive this period of turmoil. The uncle also sent a message to reassure you that when things on the eldest master's side are stable, he will come back immediately. ”

"So, do you want me to go back?"

"Not for now...... Oh, the eldest prince heard that you are going to bow with someone, and he specially sent a few good horses, and when I go back, I will send someone to send them over. ”

Yanqing kind of understands what Zheng Renji means!

The departure of Zheng Dashi is definitely a huge blow to An Yuantang.

The Lianshan clan has been declining in recent years, and Zheng Renji is also worried that other clans will take advantage of this opportunity to launch attacks on them. Zheng Renji is sending horses and encouragement, and I am afraid that there is also the idea of letting Yan Qing create a momentum here to relieve the pressure on An Yuantang.

That noble and conceited eldest son, he has finally learned to use means!

Yan Qing nodded, "Uncle Ben, I bother you to tell the eldest son, just say his intentions, I already understand." Please rest assured that I will try to push the momentum here, but also ask him to take care of my grandfather. The ancestors are also old, so it is not advisable to work too hard. If possible, ask him to ...... Let my ancestors come back early, so that I don't have to worry about it. ”

Zheng Weishan nodded in agreement, did not stop, got on the horse and left.

Looking at Zheng Weishan's departing back, Yan Qing's face suddenly became gloomy.

He kind of got it!

Why did Zheng Dashi let Zheng Shi'an return to Xingyang...... Is it really a concern? At the time, I thought it was possible, but now that I think about it, I think it's unlikely. A person like Zheng Dashi who is good at using means will never care about anyone. In his heart, the interests of the clan come first.

The reason why Zheng Shi'an was allowed to go back was probably to control himself.

As Zheng Yanqing's reputation grew, An Yuantang had to strengthen his control over him. Taking Zheng Shi'an over is nominally missing Zheng Shi'an, but in fact, it can be regarded as another constraint on Zheng Yanqing.

Thinking of this, Yan Qing couldn't help frowning...... My poor and honest grandfather, this time, I am afraid that you have been secretly calculated by that old man again!
