Chapter 583: Three Birds with One Stone
() Glancing at Cheng Yu, Zheng Yiguan sighed helplessly, although he is Yan Siming's cronies and Li Dan is also his father-in-law, there are still not too many ways to interfere in the affairs of the previous generation.
"Cheng Yu, you can stay here tonight! Tomorrow we will leave Nanjing, which will soon be an eventful place, and we will have no use here! Although there is nothing he can do, Zheng Yiguan still knows what he wants to do!
nodded, Cheng Yu didn't refute, of course he knew what Zheng Yiguan was thinking! Even so, he didn't know how to speak.
The night in Nanjing seems to be darker, and you can't see your fingers! Father-in-law Cui was lying on a large chair at this time, and the expression on his face was cloudy. A little eunuch knelt in front of him and gently washed Grandpa Cui's feet.
As Grandpa Cui's godson, Chang Lin has never seen Grandpa Cui look so depressed! Grandpa Cui, who came out of the palace, where is he not complacent? As the godson of Wang An, the eunuch who holds the seal of the celebrant and the eunuch, Grandpa Cui naturally has an extraordinary status.
"Chang Lin, how long have you been with our family?" Slowly closing his eyes, Grandpa Cui said softly.
"Godfather, the child has been with Godfather for eight years! When I was in the capital, I followed my godfather all the way to Nanjing! Slowly pressing Cui's father-in-law's feet, Chang Lin replied in a low voice.
Sighing, Grandpa Cui said with emotion: "Yes! It's been eight years, and it's been eight years! With a self-deprecating smile, Father-in-law Cui said: "Chang Lin, it's been eight years, why did you enter the palace back then?" I've been with my godfather for eight years, and my godfather hasn't asked you. ”
"The godfather is in charge of everything all day long, and the child knows it in his heart. In the past eight years, the child knows how the godfather treats the child. Chang Lin has been without parents since he was a child. It was sold several times by human traffickers, and finally it was sold to the palace. In fact, it's not to enter the palace for anything, just to live! A look of pain flashed on Chang Lin's face, obviously those hardships in the past were something he didn't want to recall.
seemed to evoke the memories of Grandpa Cui, and Cui Fu also muttered: "Yes! In order to live. It's easy to live, but it's really hard to do. ”
"The child doesn't have much thought, and since he has entered the palace, he hasn't had too many thoughts for a long time. Serve your godfather well and wait until you are old. Take your baby back to your hometown, find a place with good feng shui, and hope to be a good family in the next life! Chang Lin's eyes showed a look of hope, full of longing.
Taking his feet out of the basin, Gonggong Cui glanced at Chang Lin with a complicated expression, and said in a deep voice: "You go out!" As he spoke, he picked up a footcloth on the side. Dry your feet slowly.
Chang Lin knew that his godfather had something in his heart, so he didn't dare to disturb him too much, so he walked out with a footbath.
Grandpa Cui was the only one left in the room, leaning weakly on the chair! Outside the window, the wind seemed to be blowing, and the curtains in the room were blown high. It seemed like it was time for the door to be oiled, creaking and annoying.
I don't know how long it took. Footsteps sounded in the heat outside, and Grandpa Cui suddenly frowned, with a little impatience on his face, and said, "Is there something wrong?" Didn't I tell you not to disturb our house? Do you all take our words as wind in your ears? ”
"Godfather, the letter from the capital was written by Grandpa God!" Stopping at the door, Chang Lin held a letter in his hand and said respectfully.
Grandpa Cui sat up from the chair suddenly, with a little horror on his face, and his expression kept changing. Gritted his teeth. Grandpa Cui said in a deep voice, "Take it in!" ”
Chang Lin outside walked in quickly, put the letter on the table, hesitated for a moment, and said worriedly: "Godfather, the child has a sentence that I don't know if to say?" ”
Looking at the cramped Chang Lin. Grandpa Cui said angrily and funny: "Don't learn from those readers!" If there's a fart, let it go! ”
"Godfather, we are all people who have no children and grandchildren, people who have no ancestors! There are three unfilial pieties, and no queen is the greatest, and we are eunuchs who are already unfilial people! In this life, I am destined to be sorry for my ancestors, and I can't afford my children and grandchildren! Chang Lin's face changed several times, but he still said with a resolute face.
Waving his hand to interrupt Chang Lin's words, Grandpa Cui said a little impatiently: "If you want to say something, hurry up and say it, don't spit out." ”
"The child just wants to say to his godfather, no matter what it is, we can be sorry for anyone, but we can't be sorry for ourselves!" Chang Lin raised his head and glanced at Cui Fu, then retreated.
Sitting there stunned, looking at Chang Lin who went out, Grandpa Cui muttered to himself: "Yes! I can't be sorry for myself! He turned his head to look at the letter on the table and picked it up gently.
Hanging his hand weakly, the letter paper slowly fell to the ground, and Grandpa Cui's tears slowly fell. Suddenly got down from the chair, knelt on the ground, kowtowed a few times in the direction of Beijing, and said, "Godfather, the child is not filial!" The child knows how to do it! ”
Picked up the letter paper in his hand, carefully hid it in his arms, and walked around the room crying and laughing.
Chang Lin, who was standing outside the window, breathed a sigh of relief, with a somewhat detached look on his face, and slowly walked to a room not far away. At this time, there was a person in the room who was waiting for him, waiting for his answer.
"Father-in-law Chen, the letter has been delivered!" Walking into the house, he respectfully saluted the man, Chang Lin said respectfully.
Gonggong Chen nodded, turned around slowly, and said, "The thing is good, this work has been written down for you!" ”
"Father-in-law Xie cultivates! The child asks more, what will happen to the godfather? Chang Lin looked straight at Gonggong Chen and said something he didn't expect.
Walking to the chair and sitting down, Gonggong Chen picked his eyelids, glanced at Chang Lin, and said, "You have been a secret agent of Dongchang for seven years, right?" It's long overdue to know what to ask and what not to ask! ”
"Father-in-law Chen, this kid naturally understands! But although the child is called Cui Fu's godfather, the child has always regarded him as his father in his heart. I've been around him for so many years, and I don't want him to miss anything. Chang Lin didn't stop there, but continued to ask.
Nodding, Gonggong Chen sighed and said with emotion: "Cui Fu has a son, we people, it is already rare not to fall into the well at this time!" To be able to think about Cui Fu is really commendable! ”
"Godfather's feet are cold, so he has to soak his feet in hot water every day! For so many years, every day is a child soaking his godfather's feet, and his godfather has long been used to it. If the godfather can't survive this time, the child will accompany the godfather, and the godfather will not get used to it if there is no child to soak the godfather's feet! Chang Lin shook his head, glanced in Cui Fu's direction, and said calmly.
Shaking his head with a wry smile, Gonggong Chen said a little helplessly: "Our family can't do anything about this matter, the emperor has to decide this matter!" But if Cui Fu can get lost, he will definitely be able to save his life! Cui Fu not only has a good son, but also a good godfather! ”
Chang Lin was stunned for a moment, and said in surprise: "Could it be a godfather?" ”
Gonggong Chen nodded and said with emotion: "Cui Fu has not sent a letter to the prince, and the princess knows that something is going on here." Before the emperor left Beijing, the prince went to ask the emperor to ask him to write a letter to Cui Fu. If Cui Fu can get lost, please ask the emperor to spare his life. ”
"Grandpa, really!" Chang Lin suddenly had tears on his face, and he didn't know how to continue!
"I hope Cui Fu can understand! At that time, the emperor was furious, and the prince cried and begged to come down. is even willing to guard the soul of Taizu, I just hope that the emperor can spare Cui Fu's life, Cui Fu is a good life! Gonggong Chen glanced at Chang Lin and said with a smile.
Suddenly, there was a sobbing sound outside, the door was pushed open, and Cui Fu walked in tremblingly.
"Looks like you heard it anyway!" Without the slightest surprise on his face, Gonggong Chen looked at Cui Fu at the door with a smile and said with a smile on his face.
Poof! Cui Fu, who knelt on the ground, said movingly: "Cui Fu thank Chen Hong and Chen Gonggong, from now on, Chen Gonggong is Cui Fu's godfather!" Cui Fuwan's death is difficult to repay! ”
A smile suddenly appeared on Chen Hong's face, a or Cui Fu was much more useful than a dead Cui Fu. Sparing him alive did not cost him anything. On the contrary, there was one more person who was grateful to Dade, and at the same time, he also bought a good one from Wang An.
Regarding Wang An's cooking, Chen Hong naturally wouldn't look as simple as Chang Lin. If Cui Fu's incident happens, Wang An, as Cui Fu's godfather, will naturally not be able to escape the involvement! This hand played well with retreat, not only leaving a good impression on the Emperor of the Apocalypse, but also taking himself out of this matter. can even save Cui Fu, Chen Hong really admires Wang An.
As the oldest eunuch in the palace, although he is not inconspicuous on weekdays, he is really extraordinary at the critical moment. However, Chen Hong knew that Wang An was just pretending to be smart, how could the Emperor of the Apocalypse not see through this?
Cui Fu is a eunuch, and for the Emperor of the Apocalypse, it is too insignificant! Releasing Cui Fu can not only win over an insider, but also buy Wang An, and leave a good impression among the eunuchs. To do this is to tell the eunuchs that you are not afraid of corruption, and you are not afraid of making mistakes, as long as you are loyal to me, then you will be fine!
Thinking of the hint that the Emperor of the Apocalypse gave him, Chen Hong suddenly showed a smile on his face, let Cui Fu go, and everyone benefited. Wang An's goal has been achieved, his own goal has also been achieved, and the purpose of the Emperor of the Apocalypse has also been achieved, so who suffers?
Walked in front of Cui Fu with a smile, stretched out his hand to help Cui Fu up, Chen Hong said with a smile: "Grandpa Cui, get up!" We are all hard-working people, and our family is not the kind of person who will not be saved when he sees death! I already knew about you when you came over just now, but I still didn't hide it from you. Find out if you're lost! For your godfather, and for yourself. ”
"Father-in-law Chen rest assured, Cui Fu understands!" Cui Fu is naturally not Chang Lin, and he is not stupid, but he knows when to pretend to be stupid. (To be continued......)
