Chapter 111: Saving the talented girl Yang Rebel
"Brother Xie, someone wants to see you." The expression on Ma Wentao's face was a little strange.
"Brother Ma, didn't you say that you can't see outsiders? Look how busy I am. Xie Hong said angrily, he was hurt by this rumor for a while, and the constant harassment reminded him of his time in Beizhuang County.
Are you also busy? Ma Wentao pursed his lips and watched Xie Hong lying comfortably on a strange chair called a recliner, with Qing'er rubbing his shoulders beside him...... My old horse wants to be so busy. Thinking of the people outside, he sighed in his heart, it is really capable of everything, it is not okay not to admire.
"Brother Xie, the people from outside...... Hehe, you'd better see it. ”
Noticing Ma Wentao's eyes, Xie Hong shook the paper in his hand to show that he was indeed busy, brother was doing intelligence analysis, intelligence from the capital, sent by the Zeng family.
"Someone important? Must see? ”
"Yes, you'd better see each other." Ma Wentao nodded vigorously.
"Okay." Xie Hong got up helplessly, he was worried.
The news sent by Zeng Jian said that there was no movement in the palace suddenly, and Zhengde was extremely quiet during this time, and even several scholars praised it. This thing is quite strange, but Xie Hong can't figure out the taste, is it really that he was taught a lesson by the Queen Mother last time, and the ministers were afraid of admonishment? Otherwise, with Zhu Houzhao's surname, how could he suddenly be quiet?
Alas, it seems that the last fight not only did not have an effect, but also seemed to have the opposite effect. But Zhu Houzhao is also this guy, if you just summon your brother, why did you come to Xuanfu in a hurry?
Xie Hong sighed secretly, in fact, he blamed himself, he didn't remember exactly when Zhengde came to Xuanfu, and then he came to Xuanfu. You know, next year is the first year of Zhengde, and you have to wait until he can be independent, and then put the ministers of the court and the central government to Xuanfu, and then the year of the monkey.
Don't expect Zhu Houzhao to be classmates, only you can rely on yourself at the critical moment, with the current situation, can you consider going to the capital? Xie Hong thought about it, with Uncle Zeng here, Qian Ning seems to be quite kind, at least safety should be fine, right? Zhengde can't come to Xuanfu, he can always sneak out of the palace, can't he?
Xie Hong frowned and went to the living room.
As soon as he entered the door, a small figure rushed straight up, and without waiting for Xie Hong to react, he suddenly came to him, and then knelt on the ground with a 'poof' and cried: "Master Xie, you must save Miss." ”
What's going on? Xie Hong was a little confused, there are all kinds of things to do with my brother these days, and it is the first one to let my brother save people. Could it be that there are rumors outside that my brother is proficient in medical skills?
"Brother Xie, have you forgotten? This is Baoqin, Miss Yang'er's maid. Seeing that he was puzzled, Ma Wentao hurriedly explained.
"Oh, it turned out to be her...... Xie Hong remembered, he remembered this little girl, the one who sang very well, but ......, "The young lady you are talking about, is it Miss Yang?" What's wrong with her? ”
"Miss has an accident, Gongzi Xie, you must promise to hold the qin, and you must save Miss." Huqin cried and refused to get up, except for asking Xie Hong to save people, and not saying what happened, Xie Hong couldn't reach out to help her, and he was at a loss for a while, and he didn't know what to do.
"Sister Baoqin, something happened to Sister Betrayal?" The movement of hugging the qin and crying was not small, Ling'er was also alarmed, when she came over, she happened to hear the cry of hugging the qin, and she hurriedly came over to help her up.
"Sister Ling'er...... "I don't know when I met Ling'er in Baoqin, as soon as I saw Ling'er, it was like seeing a relative, Xie Hong touched his chin and wondered, could it be that beauties will also sympathize with each other?"
I don't know if it will be sympathetic, but with Ling'er's consolation, Baoqin's excitement quickly calmed down and began to tell, sobbing a few times from time to time.
"The last time Miss suddenly admitted defeat during the fight, Boss Zhang was very angry and yelled at Miss, and I was very worried at that time. A few days ago, Miss passed by here, and happened to hear Sister Ling'er playing the new piano, so she listened to it for a while, and then said the words that were rumored outside......" As she spoke, she frowned and said puzzled:
But at that time, only one of the guys from Tianxianglou heard it, and there was no one around, and somehow, what the young lady said actually spread out, and Boss Zhang was even more annoyed because of this. Two days ago, he fainted because he vomited blood, so he didn't have time to look for Miss, but yesterday he suddenly came to Miss, first scolded, and then he said...... I'm going to sell Miss! ”
"Sold!?" Suddenly hearing that he was going to sell someone, Xie Hong was taken aback, that was a person, how could he talk about buying and selling? He couldn't react for a moment.
"Isn't the deed of the traitorous sister in the sect? Why did Zhang Daming ...... "Ling'er knows more about Yang Rebellion."
"It's in the Jiaosifang, but Zhang Daming said that the Lord Patrol and the Lord Governor have discussed it, saying that a fireworks display will be held during the Lantern Festival, and everyone in Xuanfu Town can participate. And the lottery head is the young lady...... Mr. Xie, you must save Miss! Miss's surname is Ganglie, if she is really regarded as a lottery head, she will definitely not compromise. Huqin cried again.
"This ......" Xie Hong was also very embarrassed, if it was better to say a few days earlier, although he and Zhang Daming tore their faces, but the other party had something to ask, if he proposed to replace the piano, maybe the other party would agree. But now, even if you are willing to take a new piano to replace it, the other party may not dare to accept it.
You know, that boss Zhang vomited blood twice. No matter how much he remembers what he eats or not, he won't be fooled again, right? But what else can you do besides exchanging things for people? In silver?
"If you are willing to give money, can you help the traitorous sister redeem herself?" Before Xie Hong could speak, Ling'er asked first. Xie Hong finally discovered the similarity between Ling'er and Ma Ang, that is, once they got acquainted, it seemed that the two brothers and sisters were very invisible. No, Ling'er can be regarded as making decisions for her brother, the temper of this brother and sister is really good, if you change someone, I really don't know if I can stand it.
"I'm afraid it won't work, although Miss didn't agree, but in the past, there were also wealthy businessmen who proposed to mention Miss to redeem herself, but they were all rejected, and some of them even gave 20,000 taels of silver, and Boss Zhang didn't agree. Besides, even if Boss Zhang agrees, it's useless, Miss's deed is in the yamen, and this time it is because of the yamen's actions that she can ......" Baoqin shook his head.
"Then I'll go and get the people back." More and more people heard the movement, and the big black man proposed a solution in his usual way of thinking.
"Miss is no longer in Tianxianglou, but in the music workshop of the government......" hugged the piano and pouted, and wanted to cry again.
Erniu went to smash Tianxianglou to rob people, although he also violated the criminal law, but with the relationship between Xie Hong and Jinyiwei, it may not be impossible to suppress it. But if it is an attack on the music fang of the official mansion, then the matter is a big deal, even if it is a music fang, it represents the majesty and dignity of the imperial court, if you rashly break in and seize people, I am afraid that it will ...... Xie Hong had a flash of inspiration in his mind, could it be that this is a trap? Otherwise, why is everything so coincidental, if you really rob people like Erniu said, I'm afraid you are in the hands of the other party.
He pondered for a moment, and the more he pondered, the more he felt that there was a conspiracy in it, and he couldn't act rashly.
"Young Master Xie, Miss fell into such a field because of you, you can't be unlucky." Seeing that he was silent, Huqin thought that he refused to help, and provoked him with resentment.
Wow, I'm so lucky, what a big hat, my brother has seen her once in total, why is it so bad? Besides, isn't my brother thinking of a way now, Xie Hong felt a little dizzy, and then remembered Ma Wentao's eyes when he reported, he completely understood, after a long time, everyone thought that his brother had a personal affair with Yang Rebel?
"Yes, Brother Xie, Sister Rebel has helped us so much, we can't die without help." Ling'er also spoke.
Alas, Xie Hong sighed, it's not that he doesn't want to help, that Yang Rebel is like a proud frost and a cold plum, and his talent is even higher, even if he has no personal feelings, he really can't bear to watch the other party wither. It's just that this thing could have been a trap, and he has no choice, is it possible to go to that conference and win people back?
Well? This is a solution, Xie Hong was so entangled that he couldn't do it, so he simply said: "That's okay, I'll come to that conference, and then win the first place, that's it, right?" ”
"Gongzi Xie, did you agree?" Baoqin looked up at Xie Hong with a tear-stained face, and there was a bit of anticipation in his eyes.
"Brother Xie, you want to participate in the Lantern Festival?" Ling'er was surprised and said, "Do you know what the Lantern Festival Conference is going to be compared to?" ”
"I don't know......" Xie Hong shook his head, what is the Lantern Festival energy saving doing? Do you make lanterns? This brother has a craft; Or guess the lantern riddle? This one is easier, and my brother will have a brain teaser.
Ling'er frowned slightly and asked, "The Lantern Festival is fighting fireworks, Brother Xie, will you do this too?" ”
Fireworks, brother seems to remember that Zhengde also likes this thing? Xie Hong touched his chin and thought about it, it seemed that there was such a thing. That's better, kill two birds with one stone, maybe my brother's fireworks are done well, Zhengde will summon him as soon as he is happy, and we will travel a long way in the province.
"Of course it will, isn't it just fireworks, this must be fine." Xie Hong waved his hand, looking full of confidence, and said, "Does that need to sign up first?" ”
"Yes, I have to go to the yamen to sign up, and then the yamen will arrange the position......" Ling'er nodded, seeing Xie Hong's appearance, she didn't say anything, after all, Xie Hong had shown a lot of skills before, this fireworks...... Maybe it will work.
"Brother Ma, I'm tired of you going for a trip."
"Don't worry." Ma Wentao had more confidence in Xie Hong than Ling'er, and went out without looking back.
...... "Hou Defang really came to sign up, Zhang Daming, your kid is considered meritorious this time." "Xiao Liu's father-in-law's tone is the same as that of his juniors.
Zhang Daming was very useful, and said: "Thank you for your father-in-law's praise." ”
"Although he took the bait, but that kid surnamed Xie has great means, what if he wins?"
"Back to my father-in-law, this time Mr. Zhang will send several craftsmen in the army to participate, and those people are all intensive gunpowder researchers, so there will be no problem." Zhang Daming smiled strangely and said, "Besides, this plan originally didn't care about winning or losing, as long as the kid surnamed Xie participated, then he would die, but he still had to bother his father-in-law to make a move." ”
"You say."
"The vicinity of Qingping Building is relatively empty, and the Lantern Festival has been held here in previous years, and this year is no exception. Normally, when fireworks are set off, everyone chooses to go to the east, either for anything else but to avoid it......" He gestured to the map on his desk.
"Gu Wang's Mansion?"
"Yes, although it is vacant now, it is a royal place after all, and everyone is afraid that one will accidentally let the water go there. And this year, let's arrange the location of Houdefang on the west side of the bell tower, anyway, that kid may not know the doorway here, even if he knows, it doesn't matter, as long as the errand says that his house is in the west, it is for convenience, he will not doubt it. ”
"And then?"
"No matter how careful he is, as long as he starts setting off fireworks, let's send someone to the Gu Wang's Mansion to set fire!" Zhang Daming's voice is very infiltrating.
Xiao Liu's father-in-law was taken aback by Zhang Daming's tone, and then he also thought about the reasoning and asked, "What do you mean......?"
"Father-in-law is wise, as soon as the incident happened, I asked my father-in-law and the governor to persuade the governor to arrest Xie Hong and put him in prison, and the governor has never liked this person, so he must not refuse, and then...... Hehe, in the prison cell of the yamen, the small ones still have some hands. ”
"Good plan, good plan, there is no proof of death afterwards, even if Long Live Lord blames, it is Zhang Nai who is unlucky. Zhang Daming, you are really a talent, when this happens, you can go back to the palace with our family. ”
"Thank you father-in-law for promotion, the little one will definitely serve the father-in-law in the future."
