Volume 11 Dingfeng Turmoil Chapter 636 Strike Hard (I)

Although the affairs of the Rehe Palace are also under the jurisdiction of the Ministry of Internal Affairs, the head of the Rehe Palace has military power in his hands, and there is a lack of military attachés of the third grade, -(

This is the reason why the officials on the side of the palace can be independent of the internal affairs system and have their own faction.

The current head of the Rehe Palace, named Qi Min, is a red-belted Jueluo, who has the knighthood of the general of Zhenguo. He used to serve as a staff leader in Heilongjiang, and was only promoted to the head of Rehe last autumn.

Whether it is his identity or title, he is not inferior to Cao. So, Cao came over, so outside of the initial courtesy, he didn't take Cao too seriously.

Cao Rang reduced the repair cost, and he was still quite dissatisfied, but he knew that the Cao family was in the limelight now, and it was not good to offend him too much, so he endured it.

I thought that the bridge would return to the bridge and the road would return to the road, and it would be over in two polite ways.

When he knew the name of Cao's "Good Wealth Boy", he was also quite moved in his heart, wondering if he should find an opportunity to make friends and see if he could make more money.

However, when he saw Cao and saw his young demeanor and no humility, Qi Min couldn't get a little embarrassed.

In the end, there was some arrogance in his bones, and he was unwilling to bow his head to a slave who was born in a coat, so he immediately rested his thoughts of intimacy. The two had only met once in the yamen, and he avoided Cao intentionally or unintentionally in other kung fu

Early in the morning, Qi Min dressed up in full grade, and went to the garden of King Chun's Mansion to give the sixteenth and sixteenth elder brother orders to Rehe, and he was supposed to stay in the summer resort, but here he let Cao Yu stay. What is the rationale for this?

Isn't it just to show off to others, for fear that others will not know that he has been the prince's companion?

Cao didn't care like this, but he suffered Qi Min, and he didn't dare to ignore it, so he sent two hundred soldiers overnight. Go to the garden of King Chun's Mansion to guard it.

Now, Qi Min came over, in addition to greeting the sixteenth elder brother, he also planned to ask him to move to the palace.

I waited in the front hall for a long time. I drank three teas, but I still haven't seen the sixteenth elder brother. The sixteenth elder brother is tired of carriages and horses, and if he gets up late, he can still be considerate, Cao as the master. Why are you so sluggish?

The more Qi Min thought about it, the more he felt neglected. I have scolded Cao several times in my heart.

Qin Guiyuan, the chief housekeeper of the garden, accompanied him to talk, and when he saw that Qi Min's face was getting more and more ugly, he asked him to sit down for a while and came out by himself, wanting to urge.

As soon as he left the front hall, he saw the sixteenth elder brother and Cao coming together, Qin Gui hurriedly bowed and said, "Sixteenth master." Forehead, Chief Qi is waiting in the hall. ”

Qi Min heard movement in the room, got up from his seat to greet him, and saw the sixteenth elder brother wearing regular clothes and coming in from the door. He hurriedly flicked his sleeves and made a thousand salutes: "The slave Qi Min has seen the sixteenth master, please say hello to the sixteenth master." ”

"Alright, get up. In the blink of an eye, you've been out of Kyoto for more than ten years. Ye still remembers the situation when he followed you out of the palace to play. Speaking of this, the brother turned to Cao and said, "Cao." You don't know, do you? Qi Min was also on an errand in the guard office earlier, and was later released to be an official. When he was out of Beijing. You haven't been here yet, but you've heard Dethead mention it. Back then, Qi Min was also better than Detehei. This relationship is good, you have to work hard in a few days, and the two of you will also compare with each other, and see if the ginger is old and spicy, or the back waves of the Yangtze River push the front waves. ”

Looking at Qi Min, who was in his forties and slightly blessed, Cao really remembered the sentence "People can't look good".

Qi Min listened to the words of the sixteenth elder brother, but he was a little distracted.

Isn't Cao unconvinced by himself and chewed ** in front of the sixteenth elder brother?

The sixteenth elder brother had already sat down, rubbed his left forehead, and couldn't help but inhale in pain.

Only then did Qi Min see that the sixteenth elder brother was frowning, and his forehead was bruised. He was startled and hurriedly said, "Sixteenth master, **?" It's ......"

When the sixteenth elder brother saw him asking, his expression was a little embarrassed, and he glanced at Cao on the side.

Cao is also wronged, who would have thought that after the two of them got drunk last night, they were placed in the study. The sixteenth elder brother didn't know what to dream about, and he couldn't sleep steadily.

Cao Su was squeezed in a panic, let go of the kang head, and ran to the kang tip to sleep. When I got up early and looked at it, the sixteenth elder brother didn't know when he ran up, and his forehead became like this.

Qi Min followed the gaze of the sixteenth elder brother, looked at Cao, and thought in his heart, it can't be that Cao is not light or heavy, and he hurts his brother, right? In that case, it would be a big rebellion.

Cao was in the right hand of the sixteenth elder brother, leaving the east position for Qi Min.

Seeing Qi Min looking at himself, Cao smiled and made a gesture to please sit down.

Qi Min was still puzzled, so he heard the sixteenth elder brother snort coldly and said, "What else can there be?" I'm about to settle accounts with you. How do you manage things, this is a mess, why do you come here? Seeing that the head was injured, it was done by the gangsters last night. You are so bold, so lax, you are not afraid that when the Holy Driver patrols the Xingrehe, something will go wrong? ”

Qi Min was shocked when he heard this, he had already turned over and knelt down, and said: "I didn't expect that there would be a murderer who disturbed the sixteenth master, the slave should die, and the slave will make people investigate this matter thoroughly." ”

Seeing him say this, the sixteenth elder brother nodded with satisfaction and said, "It is your duty as the general manager to clean up public order, and there is no need to say this." There is no city wall in this hot river, and it is inevitable that there will be a mixture of fish and dragons, so you should always pay attention. Rectify it with your heart, if you can bring those lawless people to justice as soon as possible, you will definitely ask for credit in front of the emperor. ”

Qi Min responded respectfully, hesitated for a moment, and asked, "May I ask the Sixteenth Master, where was the attack?" If the slave wants to arrest the murderer, how to start? ”

When the sixteenth elder brother heard this, he couldn't help frowning, and said, "Two miles outside the city, I saw them fleeing to the city. The black scarf is masked, and it looks very sneaky. Listening to the voice, it doesn't look like Ben's accent. Recently, there are any suspicious people from outside, and they can't live in them. When the master arrived here, they chased after him, and the medicine killed the two dogs in the garden here, which was really rampant. Otherwise, the master would not have sent you a letter overnight and asked you to arrange for someone to protect you

In the end, the sixteenth elder brother was already gritting his teeth. His face was full of anger.

Qi Min felt that something was wrong when he heard it before, but after listening to this story, he no longer dared to doubt it. Thinking that Brother Sixteen almost had an accident last night, he almost broke out in a cold sweat.

Rarely, he showed his intentions. Please move the sixteenth elder brother to the palace.

When the sixteenth elder brother heard this, he couldn't help sneering and said, "You just have this point, it's hard for the master not to go to the palace." Is it possible to save your life? The whole world is not the king's land, is it possible that the master lives in the garden, Qi Min, you can't keep the master? ”

"The slave doesn't dare, it's just that the identity of the sixteenth master is precious...... Qi Min was anxious, and saw that the sixteenth elder brother blindly insisted on his own opinion. I didn't know what to say, so I turned around and looked at Cao Dao: "Lord Cao." Do you think it's a persuasion ......?"

Cao's face showed solemnity, and he said to the sixteenth elder brother: "Sixteenth master, what Chief Qi said is very true, the sixteenth master still glanced at Cao, and said to Qi Min: "By the way, let someone clean up the Yunrong Pavilion." The lord occupies this place, and the lord of Herui County will move to the palace with his daughter in the next few days. After a while. There are Mongolian kings who arrived first, and among them there are female dependents, and they have to come forward with Rui to entertain first. "Yes, I know in my heart that it's unusual.

Looking at the solemnity of Cao's face, and the arrangement of the sixteenth elder brother to the lord of Herui, it seems that the sixteenth elder brother was attacked.

Qi Min knew that his free days were over.

There are still many things to deal with in terms of how to arrest the murderer and how to arrange manpower. So he took his leave from the garden. With a little anxiety, he hurried away.

Cao looked at the sixteenth elder brother. said: "Since the sixteenth master really wants to stay here, then let's go to the inner courtyard to live." The front yard rooms are not very spacious. ”

The sixteenth elder brother rubbed his stomach and said, "It's up to you." Now it's important to eat, blame the hungry, let's ask your daughter-in-law for food! ”

While talking, the two of them went to the inner garden together.

Chu Yu was talking to Cao Song here. Because it was late yesterday, it was inconvenient for Cao Song to talk more after greeting his sister-in-law. I came over for dinner this morning, saw my eldest niece, and accompanied my sister-in-law to talk about family life.

"Niece, your sixteenth uncle, I also starved to death! Whatever you want, get something to fill your stomach. As soon as he entered the room, the sixteenth elder brother shouted, he didn't have the consciousness of being an uncle at all.

Cao Song glanced at the forehead of the sixteenth elder brother, then at Cao, and said with a smile: "I heard that the sixteenth master and the slave brother fell asleep, what's the matter, can't you dream and fight?" ”

"Dare to joke? It's a small example, haven't you ridden enough horses, or don't you make this horse gallop addiction again? The sixteenth elder brother sat down on the kang, looked at Cao Song with a little smile.

Cao Song heard this, and hurriedly begged for mercy: "The slave doesn't dare, don't mind the sixteenth master." This body is stiff, and now I can't close my legs. ”

Chu Yu had already stood up and ordered someone to go to the kitchen.

Cao had a dry mouth because of the drinking last night, poured two cups of warm tea, handed one to the sixteenth elder brother, and one for himself.

After drinking it in two sips, he said to Cao Song: "Yesterday, I asked Xiaoman to take the medicine, did you wipe it?" That medicine is the prescription of the Tai Hospital, and it is the best to reduce swelling and remove stasis. ”

Cao Song nodded and said, "I used it last night, it works, and I talked to my sister-in-law about it just now." ”

Speaking kung fu, Chu Yu has already found a small white porcelain jar and put medicine on the forehead of the sixteenth elder brother. The sixteenth elder brother bared his teeth in pain, and he couldn't bear to see it.

Cao Song was afraid that the sixteenth elder brother would not be comfortable, so he hurriedly excused himself that there was something in the front yard and went out first.

"How the hell did you knock it? It's really a flip fall, so you didn't knock on it, did you? Seeing that the sixteenth elder brother was like this, Cao was a little worried.

Speaking of this, the sixteenth elder brother remembered something, and did not answer the previous words, but asked: "Who lives in the right courtyard of this study?" How can it be so shadowy, like hearing a woman crying. I was thirsty in the middle of the night, so I got up to look for water, and when I heard this movement, I wanted to follow the sound to take a look, but I tripped over the threshold. Cao has been in suspense about the "reward" for the past few days, and he has forgotten that there is such a person in the front yard. He raised his head and asked Chu Yu, "How is the little girl's injury?" Q: Did she have any other relatives? ”

"I went to see it yesterday, and the wound is not deep, it has already scabbed. But he was frightened and fell into the water again. The spirit is still somewhat lacking. Relatives...... There is an uncle in the countryside, the one who sold her back then, and he just cried when he mentioned it...... God is pitiful, it's only fourteen ...... this year," Chu Yu replied.

When the sixteenth elder brother heard this, he was a little curious. "What's going on?" he asked. Is there still a fallen beauty hidden here? Another wound, and another overboard? ”

Cao told Guo's story again, and the sixteenth elder brother couldn't help but be dumbfounded. said: "I didn't expect there to be such a strange woman in the world, but it's a pity, I can't see it in person." If the master could have known about the Guo family earlier, he would have regarded it as a close friend. Speaking of which, he sighed. Said: "Where is the mourning hall located, the master wants to go and worship." ”

"In the temple in the west of the city. I heard that many of the gentry in the city had gone to donate money. Cao thought that the big butler had said this yesterday and replied.

"It's a shame, but it's like this!" The sixteenth elder brother shook his head and said, "I want to go and see that Xiaoying, who was raised by the Guo family and has been exposed to it." It should be a little extraordinary. ”

As he spoke, the sixteenth elder brother had already hurriedly stopped him and said, "What's the hurry?" Ate first, who was shouting hungry just now? ”

At this time, Chu Yu had already led people to set up the meal.

The sixteenth elder brother laughed twice, took the hot towel handed by Chu Yu himself, and wiped his hands.

Both of them had empty stomachs, so they drank a few bowls of hot porridge with side dishes.

Chu Yu's side. Because it was only sixteen, the elder brother said that he was going to see Xiaoying. So ask Xicai to take people to the front yard to say first, and it won't be cheap to save a while.

Just put down the chopsticks. The sixteenth elder brother couldn't sit still, patted Cao's arm, and said, "Hurry up and take the master over to have a look!" No matter how this Xiaoying is, it is good to listen to more anecdotes about Guo's life. ”

Seeing him so eager, Cao also put down his chopsticks and went to the front yard with him.

Xiaoying had already gotten up and freshened up, but her eyes were still swollen and swollen, and it was difficult to hide her grief.

The last time Cao saw her, her little face was dirty, covering her true face. At first sight this time, it was a little amazing.

A girl of fourteen or fifteen years old, with a slightly slender body, fair and lovely skin, with tearful eyes and slightly trembling shoulders, looks very lovable.

I can't help but be amazed, and even the sixteenth elder brother is a little straight-eyed.

Xiaoying knelt on it, but she was panicked, and her teeth were fighting.

Cao retracted his gaze and said, "Let's get up." How are you resting these days? Some grandmothers said. Speaking of this, he pointed to the sixteenth elder brother and said, "This is the sixteenth master, after hearing about your sister, I admire it." I know you're here, so I'm here to see you. ”

"The little girl is still good, thank you for the grace of the forehead. Sister's side, sister's side...... Today is the seventh day of my sister's head, and the little girl wants to worship ......" In the end, her tears have fallen like beads with broken threads.

"The Zhao family of three and the bride have been killed by the murderer, and the world still thinks that the dead bride is you. It's gone, and she doesn't want you to have a hard time. It's just a formality, if you want to go, just stop and go again. Cao Dao.

Xiaoying nodded and said with tears: "God has eyes, in the past few years, how my sister has treated Aunt Weng has been in the eyes of the little girl." When my sister was killed, in addition to the little girl witnessing it, Zhao Po also saw it herself, but she lost her conscience, just covered up the truth, protected her son, and discussed killing the little girl, regardless of her sister's support over the years......"

"Hey!" When the sixteenth elder brother heard this, he inevitably sighed again, stepped forward, and said: "Don't worry, girl, my lord will let someone handle it, and I will not make your sister desolate behind her." If you want to go and worship, I will accompany you in a while. ”

Seeing that he was so enthusiastic, Xiaoying didn't know how to deal with it.

Although I didn't know the identity of the "Sixteenth Master" in front of me, I was afraid when I saw how he was dressed and treated him respectfully. She showed a little uneasiness, glanced at Cao, and was quite eager to ask for help.

Cao couldn't bear it when he saw it, and said, "You are also tired, rest first, I still have something to take care of with the sixteenth master." As he spoke, he pulled the sixteenth elder brother out.

The sixteenth elder brother was reluctant to leave, and he still went back, his eyes eager to stick to Xiaoying.

When Cao saw it, he couldn't cry or laugh.

When the two arrived at the front hall, Cao smiled and said, "Is the sixteenth master too yang?" It seems that you should talk to Lord Qi. Bringing some palace maids over as soon as possible will also save the sixteenth master from getting angry. ”

The sixteenth elder brother sat down on his seat, his face was already showing a look of longing, and said, "I can't complain that the Guo family hid her tightly and kept it a secret." Such a small flower. I see pity, although I grew up in the people, but I don't see the slightest vulgarity, it's really rare. "Speaking of which. Shaking his head, he said, "What did you tell you to do this?" You guy, everything is good, but you are too incomprehensible. ”

Cao saw that he was very interested in Xiaoying, and persuaded: "The sixteenth master knows the rules of the palace. Not every woman can take it! This little girl's fate has been rough enough, although it is good to be prosperous and rich. Have a life, too. ”

The sixteenth elder brother waved his hand and said, "What are you doing with this, can you still rob the people's daughters?" She is not your wife and concubine, and you can't let your master be courteous? ”

The sixteenth elder brother did what he said, and immediately beat people to prepare a sedan chair, and Zhang Luo worshipped in the temple with Xiaofang Guo's family.

Qi Min was frightened by the sixteenth elder brother here, and he was already in a state of soul. I heard that the sixteenth elder brother was traveling, and he personally brought hundreds of soldiers to accompany him.

The temple has been cleared.

It's rare to toss it, Chu Yu also mentioned before that he wanted to give Guo a pillar of incense, so Cao took this opportunity to take his wife to travel with the sixteenth elder brother.

The mighty team attracted many people to stop.

When I heard that even the nobles in the palace garden had to give condolences to the Guo family, some people pouted, thinking that they had lost their dignity; Some people are the reincarnation of the god of flowers, and the Cold Food Festival has ascended to heaven and returned to the throne.

In the crowd. A few people looked at the procession in the distance. There was a fierce look on his face.

In the past few days, I have always paid attention to the other side of the palace garden. But it's rare to see people come out. It was not easy to come out once, the team was so huge, there were officers and soldiers opening the way, and it was impossible to get close at all.

plus men and women, either in a car, or in a sedan car, I don't know which car Cao is in. Even if it is an itchy hand, they do not dare to make a move.

"Second master, the list has been posted, and someone has checked it, what should I do? Do you want to go out of the city to escape for two days? In a tavern in the distance, near the window, a man asked in a low voice.

"No, even if they check again, they won't be able to find the Guogong Mansion, what are they afraid of? Don't be impatient, wait for two days to meet up with the boss. "There was a man with a wide brim next to him, both of whom were wearing cyan short coats, which looked like servants' clothes.

The population of this Rehe is not large, and there are many gardens of the powerful families, and there are many people in the homes of various prefectures on the street. Therefore, the two of them were eating and drinking at the window, and no one paid attention.

Only Xiao Er, when he saw the dog skin plaster under the eyes of the man wearing the wide-brimmed hat, he felt a little funny. It is common for people to put dog skin plasters on their temples, but there are really few that stick them on their cheekbones?

When the man saw Xiao Er looking at him, he glanced at Xiao Er, and it was difficult to hide the ferocity in his eyes.

Xiao Er was frightened, and hurriedly lowered his head, and listened to the man: "Check out!" ”

Xiao Zhan leaned over tremblingly, nodded and said, "Three dishes, two pots of wine, and a plate of steamed buns, a total of one hundred and twenty-seven Wen." ”

The man took out a handful of money from his bosom, settled the bill, got up and left. The man at the same table also got up to follow, and muttered in his mouth: "I want to eat pancakes, this steamed bread is white, and I can't bite it......"

Xiao Er held the wine money and breathed a sigh of relief.

Thinking of the viciousness of the man just now, Xiao Er couldn't help but spat at the mouth, and said, "It's just a minion, and he picked up the shelf, what is it?" ”

When the wine money was delivered to the counter, Xiao Er took a rag and took the table just now.

There happened to be a table guest, and the accent was outsider, talking about the filial piety Guo Shi. I don't know where the controversy is, and several people are arguing. I had to call Xiao Er over again to ask for details. Xiao Er spoke it again and again, and everyone sighed.

Those who eat vegetables put down their chopsticks, and those who drink wine put down their wine cups, and everyone wants to go to the temple to worship.

At this time, he saw a group of soldiers coming, and they came in with a fierce spirit. Wei's little school glanced at the guests at the table and said, "Outsiders? When did you get to Rehe, is there a way? ”

The men got up and took the way out of their respective packages.

The colonel who took the lead looked over and over again, and only after confirming that it was not false did he fall on the table, and began to look at everyone again, and said to the soldiers behind him: "Search, give it to the master carefully!" ”

When they saw it, they didn't know why, and they were in a panic. However, I didn't dare to step forward to stop it, so I had to be in a hurry.

The shopkeeper had already come over, stuffed a piece of broken silver into the little colonel's hand, and said in a low voice: "Official, is it the matter that you wanted a few days ago?" The wanted image was also posted on the street, and it didn't look like these guest officers. ”

"Mouthy!" The little colonel snorted and said, "What do you know? Lord tells you, it's not been peaceful recently, as long as there is a foreign accent to stay and eat, you have to pay careful attention. If the murderer is accommodated, it is a crime of harboring, and then he will not be able to eat and walk around. ”

As he spoke, the soldiers had already turned over the packages and bodies of those people.

After all, they were out of the house, and two people had daggers on them to defend themselves.

The little colonel put the dagger in the palm of his hand, his face showed a little hideous, and he waved the two people who were frightened, and there were people next to him, who hurriedly stuffed the silver into the little school, and pleaded with his mouth: "Official, we are indeed good people, the dagger is just for self-defense, and I don't know that I have committed a taboo, and I hope that the official will spare the little ones." ”

The little colonel didn't seem to see the silver, and said: "If you are wronged, come out of the yamen and talk about it, what are you talking about, don't take it away!" The little ones, the chief manager said, who dares to slack off these days, the board is light, and none of you should be called a mother if you are lacking. If you want to be promoted to official wealth, your eyes are bright spots for your grandfather...
