Chapter Twenty-Seven: Loyalty and Treachery

It was cold outside the house, and the house was as warm as spring, Zhao Ta leaned on the chair, holding the book and flipping it without a match, while the two people of Huaihua and Osmanthus were talking and laughing while embroidering, and a little black dog barked and chased a white cat around.

Suddenly, the room was quiet, Zhao Ta turned his head to look, the white cat jumped on the bookshelf in desperation, hunched over and glared at the little black dog sitting below, "Hehe, you are a traitor, you are a loyal minister, and a traitor will never be able to fight a loyal minister!" He smiled as he pointed to the two little ones facing each other.

"Second master, who do you say is a loyal minister and who is a traitor?" Osmanthus asked.

"A cat is a traitor, and a dog is a loyal minister!"

"The second master just said, how cute Xiaobai is, how can he be a traitor!" As soon as the kitten was hugged, it was fed by osmanthus, and when Zhao Ta said that the cat was a traitor, he couldn't help but cry out for it.

"As the saying goes, 'the dog is not poor, the son is not ugly', the dog can share the hardships with the owner, but the cat is lazy to do, whoever is rich and rich will follow whom, once it suffers, it will run away from home and never come back!" Zhao Ta said with a smile.

"The second master actually said some crooked reasoning, Xiaobai is clean and beautiful, and he can be coquettish to relieve people's boredom, Xiaohei is dirty and ugly, and he screams when he hears a little movement, which annoys people to death!" Osmanthus walked over and blasted away the little black dog, and took the cat off the shelf, and the cat rubbed her chest affectionately, making Osmanthus giggle.

"Xiao Hei, come here!" Zhao Ta put down the book and called the helpless puppy, took a piece of snack from the plate and put it to its mouth, and said while stroking him: "Sister Osmanthus, they are all deceived people, they don't know between loyalty and treachery, don't be like them, it will be given away in a while, our family doesn't want traitors!" ”

"Second master, are you going to give away the little white cat?" Osmanthus was taken aback and hurriedly asked.

"yes, I traded it for a house and a herd of livestock!" Zhao Ta said with a smile.

"Second Master..." Osmanthus didn't say anything, and the tears had already flowed down first.

At this time, the door was pushed open, and when he saw him walking in happily, it was as if he had picked up a gold ingot, "Second master, that Governor Chen is really obedient, he asked people to hand over Zhuangzi early in the morning, and the arranger of the chief steward went, we made a lot of money this time!" ”

"Stupid, we didn't make any money, but let him take a big advantage, two heads and a prefect's black gauze hat are not worth these two hundred hectares!" Zhao Ta said in a weird manner, he was not surprised by this, he knew that Chen Tang would do it according to the way he drew for him, he had been rolling in the officialdom for many years, and he would not fail to understand the truth of breaking the fortune and avoiding disasters, not to mention that he did not rectify him to death, I am afraid that Chen Tang is still grateful to Dade for raising his noble hand.

"Yes, yes, we gave him 5,000 yuan, and we also took a cat, and we didn't ask for him in vain, or we will not dare to fart if we don't give him a debt!" Jianxi thought about it and said.

"Bastard, let's not give money, a prince eats white food and pays his debts, won't he become a robber? If you don't want to be embarrassed, I still want to be embarrassed, hurry up and give them the money and take the cat away! Zhao Ta scolded.

"Yes, I'll notify the chief steward!" Jianxi said, "Osmanthus give me the cat!" He turned and said.

"Second master, leave Xiaobai behind?" Osmanthus looked at Zhao Ta pitifully with tears in her eyes and said, the cat in her arms hugged her tighter.

"Osmanthus, why are you ignorant, and you dare not listen to the words of the second master!" Seeing Xihu said with a face.

"Second master, I'm really reluctant..." Osmanthus began to cry again.

"Forget it, forget it, you can keep the cat!" Zhao Ta couldn't see this the most, and waved his hand and said helplessly.

"Second master, then we will lose our words..." Jianxi was scolded twice and asked carefully.

"The elm head that can't be opened by the 60 can't be opened, you are stupid, you just say that the cat is dead and runs away, or find a wild cat from outside to wash it and give it to him, don't you just get it, we didn't say which cat to give him?" Zhao Ta said angrily, seeing that this guy usually looks smart, why is he at a loss when he encounters something, and he has to let him make up his mind.

"Yes, yes, don't be angry, second master, I'll go to the warehouse right away to find a cat and send it to them!" Seeing that Xi glared at Osmanthus and ran away, this girl let herself be scolded again, although he didn't know what the 60 cannon was, but it was definitely not a good word.

The warehouse that relied on catching mice every day, eating leftovers of the Lai Pi cat never expected to be lucky, his fate was changed by a sentence of the prince, although it was born in a 'cold family', but now it has become a nouveau riche, the value has risen to several thousand, to the prefect's house do not need to ask for good food and drink like the ancestors, will definitely grow into a generation of famous cats in everyone's word of mouth! ,

······

Osmanthus seems to be afraid that the cat will be snatched away, hide out of the wolf, Huaihua with the little black dog out of the mouth to walk, Zhao Ta is left alone in the house, he lies on the table and looks at the two green turtles in the glass jar, they swim leisurely in the water, the long 'hair' flutters in the water, these parasitic algae on their bodies are cumbersome, but also make them double their value, to avoid becoming a disaster to satisfy people's appetites, but also to enjoy a worry-free life.

"Are you satisfied with this life?" Zhao Ta flicked the glass jar, and the two green-haired turtles sank to the bottom of the water in panic, their heads and limbs retracted into their shells.

"Do you think that if you hide, you will be able to live a safe life? Your green fur will only make you feel special, because some people are more interested in you alternatives, they can also smash the glass jar to catch you, and if you have enough of playing and tear off your shell and eat your flesh, you will only die more miserable! Zhao Ta said to himself.

"Ahh Zhao Ta sighed, isn't he like a green-haired turtle in a tank now, although he has temporarily gotten rid of the crisis in front of him, but it is all by virtue of the 'green hair' on his head - the halo of the prince.

Ten years later, twenty years later, when that war of annihilation comes, what will you do? There are two roads in front of you, which are killed like pigs by the Jin soldiers, or it is possible to leave a life to die in the city of the Five Kingdoms in the midst of hunger and cold; The other way is to hide in Jiangnan like those two turtles with his prophetic preconception.

"Could it be that I, a special elite from the next generation, can only live once in my nest, no, I have to go out of the third way, live a wonderful life, and I will not be reborn into this era in vain!"

What can I do now? I have already made pistols, I can also make cannons, muskets, produce many 'high-tech' weapons, and carry a gun across the horse will surely sweep the entire back, Pingxi Xia, destroy the Liao State, and conquer Eurasia! Thinking of this, Zhao Ta was a little excited, walked around the house twice, suddenly wanted to smoke a cigarette, his hand couldn't help touching his pocket, and it didn't feel right, he smiled bitterly and shook his head, this year's tobacco leaves are still growing in South America, waiting for the discovery of history around the world!

'Wang... Suddenly, there was a dog barking, "Second master, everything has been done, our Zhuangzi has doubled, and this radius of ten miles will be ours in the future!" The smiling Jianxi came in with a little black dog wagging his tail.

"Ahh Zhao Ta looked at the happy one person and one dog, like a basin of cold water splashed on his head, his heart was cold, and his whole body was cold, "I also swept across Europe and Asia, the only person I can trust is the person and dog in front of me, I am really daydreaming!" "His great ambition just now has fallen into the Mariana Trench!

······

In the greenhouse, Zhao Ta's mind was not on the green vegetable field at all, he had a trace of worry in his heart, Huang Jingchen had come back, he thought it must be another 'political lesson', but he simply asked a few words of nonsense of 'Are you full, are you frozen', and then went back to the house, Zhao Ta was very surprised, he felt that Huang Jingchen had already known what happened two days ago, but now he pretended that nothing had happened.

"What does he mean?" Zhao Ta was confused, although he and Huang Jingchen lived under the same roof, they still knew too little about him. Huang Jingchen is like an elder in the family, he cares about himself, and the affairs of the house are also well organized. After more than a year of getting along, Zhao Ta knew that Huang Jingchen was not the simple character he seemed on the surface, and he showed his thunderous means from dealing with the 'Garden Assassination', and did not hesitate to remove the suspects in the house, killing everyone involved in the incident, and the cruel means were by no means as amiable as he seemed on the surface.

"You can't do anything to get around him, if he has malice towards himself, then he can only get rid of him as soon as possible, if he can help himself, it will be a great help!" Huang Jingchen, as the actual ruler of the palace, Zhao Ta knew that he had buried a 'nail' beside him, and it could be said that he couldn't hide his every move, but now he didn't say anything, Zhao Ta felt like he was sitting on a volcanic crater, and he didn't know whether it was an active volcano or an extinct volcano under Lu Dao's buttocks.

Zhao Ta has been tossed by his own thoughts in the past few days, and if he wants to change the status quo of this world, the best way is to tell his father directly, "You have to be diligent in government and love the people, don't spend all day drinking to find him a little mother, and spoil Cai Jing and other six thieves, let alone listen to Tong Guan's words of the dead eunuch a few years later, go to Lianjin to destroy Liao, if you don't listen, your family will be ruined and you can only go to the northeast to eat snow." But this is also the most unlikely way to go, not to mention whether his father listens or not, put it aside first, and the few people who hold the power and the brothers who are eyeing him will have to kill him as a demon first!

"Zhao Ren, take these crooked melons off!" Zhao Ta pointed to two melon seedlings that showed signs of turning melons and said.

"Second master, these melons will ripen soon, it's a pity to pick them off!" Zhao Ren looked at the cucumbers that had grown to the length of chopsticks and said.

"They have to be removed, they grow too big, they won't grow if you don't pick the other melons, you can't because they affect the melons on the whole vine!" Zhao Ta unquestionably ripped off a cucumber and said, he had secretly decided that the stumbling blocks that stood in his way must be kicked off.
