Chapter Ninety-Six: Cao Ying is a fairy sister

Zhao Yan has heard others mention Cao Ying's grandfather more than once these days, and others use words like medical skills and living immortals to describe each other, among which medical skills can be understood, Cao Ying's medical skills are learned from her grandfather, but the words living immortals are not only used to praise the other party's medical skills, listening to other people's meanings, it seems that Cao Ying's grandfather is really a first-class figure of immortals, usually the dragon sees the head but does not see the end, and does not live in Cao's mansion at all, Zhao Yan, the grandson-in-law, has never seen each other until now.

Hearing Zhao Yan ask about his grandfather, Cao Ying sighed and said: "My grandfather is an old man, because he likes to cultivate since he was a child, so he has lived in seclusion for most of his life, and rarely returns to live in Tokyo City, because his old man's medical skills are superb, and he is also quite famous among Taoists, so he is called a living immortal, but he is old, but he still goes out from time to time over the years, which makes us juniors very worried." ”

"Cao Yan?" Zhao Yan felt very familiar when he heard this name, but he couldn't remember where he had heard it for a while, and at this time, he only heard Cao Ying continue: "In addition, because my grandfather is the younger brother of the Queen Mother, and he is the uncle of the Renzong Dynasty, so the people generally call my grandfather Uncle Cao!" ”

"Uncle Cao Guo!" Zhao Yan stood up in shock when he heard this name, the legend of the Eight Immortals in later generations is naturally known to everyone, although Uncle Cao Guo is not very conspicuous among the Eight Immortals, but he is also a god, and Uncle Cao Guo in history seems to be a person from the Northern Song Dynasty, so in this way, Cao Ying is not the granddaughter of the immortals?

"What Uncle Cao? You should also call grandfather! Cao Ying was a little dissatisfied with Zhao Yan calling her grandfather so loudly in the folk name, so she reminded her loudly.

"Haha, it's the husband's mistake. Be sure to call grandfather in the future! Zhao Yan laughed and said, he didn't expect that he would marry a fairy's granddaughter. In this way, when he crossed over and saw Cao Ying for the first time. It's not wrong to call her "fairy sister" directly, and the granddaughter of the fairy should also be considered a fairy, right?

"By the way, where is our grandfather and his old man now, when will I be able to meet my grandson-in-law?" Zhao Yan asked again after being excited, this rare creature of immortals has only appeared in legends, but basically no one has seen it, but now that there is a living immortal by his side, Zhao Yan naturally wants to see it, maybe he can learn a spell of immortality and turning stones into gold to play.

Seeing the expression on Zhao Yan's face. The clever Cao Ying immediately guessed his thoughts, and said with some disdain at the moment: "Most of the immortals are vain, although my grandfather is called a living immortal by others, but in my opinion, he is just an ordinary old man, he has to eat when he is hungry, and he will get sick when he is cold, and he will not know any magical spells, as for wanting to see his old man." That's going to be difficult, I wonder if he'll come back during the Chinese New Year this year? ”

"Who said that the theory of immortals is false, am I not an example of meeting immortals?" Zhao Yan was very dissatisfied with Cao Ying's first sentence, no matter when and where. He has to maintain the truth of his lies. And since the last time he memorized poems and was exposed by Cao Ying, Cao Ying seems to have doubted his set of encounters with immortals.

"Really? Folklore has it that his grandfather was a disciple of Lu Xianzu, and since his husband met Lu Xianzu in a dream. I don't know if I've heard him mention his grandfather as a disciple? Cao Ying suddenly asked with a somewhat naughty smile at this time.

"This ......" Zhao Yan was only excited just now, and for a while he didn't expect that Lu Dongbin and Uncle Cao Guo were still in a master-apprentice relationship. This made him not know how to answer for a while, and even faintly regretted it. There are so many immortals in China, how could it be so coincidental that I thought of Lu Dongbin, and I knew that I would make up one at random.

Seeing that Zhao Yan was speechless, Cao Ying smiled proudly and said, "Have you thought about it, what should you say to make this lie come true?" ”

"No, give me some more time!" Zhao Yan blurted out a little anxiously and made his debut. As a result, as soon as the words came out, Cao Ying immediately covered her mouth and laughed non-stop, it seemed that she didn't seem to care about Zhao Yan's previous lies.

Seeing Cao Ying's appearance, Zhao Yan said with some annoyance: "Women can't be too smart, otherwise it's easy to annoy people, most of the talented women in history are ill-fated, just because they like to be smarter than their own men, so most of them end up miserable." ”

"Giggle~, thank you for your compliment, and thank you for reminding you that the slave family must work hard to make yourself stupid in the future, so as not to be disgusted by your husband!" After more than three months of getting along day and night, Cao Ying has fully understood Zhao Yan's temperament, and naturally knows that although Zhao Yan is fierce, he is actually joking, as for Zhao Yan's previous lie about meeting the immortals, Cao Ying did not ask, everyone has their own secrets, since Zhao Yan doesn't want to say it, then there must be his reasons, anyway, the two of them will have a long time in the future, and he can wait until the day he is willing to say it.

A few days later, Zhao Yan was summoned into the palace by Zhao Shu again, because of the burning of corn and sweet potatoes, Zhao Shu vomited blood and became ill, and even couldn't see people for a while, which made Zhao Yan a little worried, fortunately, Zhao Shu After a few days of recuperation, his body was slowly recovering, so he summoned Zhao Yan into the palace today.

When Zhao Yan entered Zhao Shu's bedroom, he found that his eldest brother Zhao Ji was also there, and there was also Huang Wude, the old eunuch, except for the two of them, the palace maids and chamberlains in the palace seemed to have been driven out.

"Yan'er, you're here, sit next to your eldest brother!" Zhao Shu, who was half-lying on the bed, pointed to a chair in front of the bed and said. Zhao Yan walked over according to his words, and then sat down next to Zhao Xu, while the old eunuch Huang Wude stood at the head of Zhao Shu's bed with his hands tied.

"Daddy, what is the important thing that you summoned me and my third brother today?" Zhao Yan's urgency still couldn't be changed, and as soon as Zhao Yan sat down, he immediately asked. Although he knew about corn and sweet potatoes, he didn't know where these two crop species were, and he didn't know that the fire in the palace burned the corn and sweet potatoes to death a few days ago.

"Wude, tell me about it!" Zhao Shu instructed Huang Wude next to him at this time.

I saw Huang Wude agree, and immediately told the fire in the palace a few days ago, as well as the inference of the master dynasty who solved the case later, as a result, Zhao Ji heard that the corn and sweet potatoes were destroyed, and he was also shocked to stand up, and finally heard that it was the fire set by two dead soldiers, which made him guess something immediately, and his face was flushed with anger, and he clenched his fists and said with hatred: "Liaoguo, Liaoguo again!" ”

Seeing Zhao Xu's angry appearance, Zhao Shu sighed and said: "Xu'er, you have to control your impatient temper, although this matter has been investigated by Wude, it is indeed an order issued by the Liao State Mission, but the person who gave the order has a special identity, and Wude only caught a few small miscellaneous fish, as for this real mastermind behind the scenes, we can't move." ”

"Daddy, the Liao Kingdom has bullied us, can we only swallow this breath?" When Zhao Ji heard this, he said angrily again, obviously it was the other party who made the first move, but now they didn't even dare to catch the real murderer, and he couldn't swallow this breath no matter what.

"What if you don't swallow it, could it be that you also want to set fire to revenge in Liaoguo?" Although Zhao Shu was relatively calm, he was actually very angry about it, and when he heard Zhao Shu's words at this time, his tone was also a little aggravated.

"Why not, the emperor of Liao does not have a fixed palace, but there is a palace that patrols in all seasons, which is also more convenient for us to do it, Huang Wude must have also planted people on the Liao side, and putting a fire can also let the other party know that our Great Song Dynasty is not weak and can be bullied!" Zhao Ji was also dizzy with anger, and even a little unscrupulous, if it was in normal times, he would definitely not say such irresponsible angry words.

"His Royal Highness King Ying's anger, this kind of battle of will not be beneficial to both of us, and it will even provoke the wrath of the Liao State, just a Western Xia has made our Great Song Dynasty tired of coping, if you anger the Liao State again, I am afraid that we will face the situation of the two countries, so this kind of thing must not be done!" Huang Wude also opened his mouth to persuade at this time, he had a secret force in the Great Song Dynasty, and he did have a large number of people in the Liao State and Western Xia, but these manpower were mainly used to obtain some confidential information, and he rarely used them, and he didn't want his subordinates to die in vain.

Zhao Ji was also angry for a while, and when he heard Huang Wude's words, he calmed down, and he could only sit down helplessly and sigh at the moment, he could only blame the military of the Great Song Dynasty for being too weak, especially in the face of the Liao State, he had no confidence, and he could only swallow his anger when he was bullied now.

"Daddy, just now you said that Huang Wude has found out the mastermind behind the scenes, can you tell this person's name?" At this time, Zhao Yan, who had not spoken, suddenly stood up and said, although he was also very angry with Liao's actions, but he was a very realistic person, since he couldn't retaliate against Liaoguo now, then first find out the mastermind behind the scenes to retaliate, and wait until the Great Song Dynasty's national strength increased in the future, and it would not be too late to bully Liao.

When Zhao Shu heard Zhao Yan's words, he immediately glanced at Huang Wude, and then said: "Yan'er, don't meddle in this matter, the identity of the person behind the scenes is very sensitive, and he must not be allowed to have an accident in my Great Song Dynasty, so even if you know the other party's name, you must not mess around!" ”

Huang Wude also saw that Zhao Yan seemed to want to take revenge on the mastermind behind the scenes in private, and this matter was very important, so he naturally had to report to Zhao Shu, and Zhao Shu called Zhao Yan today, just to ask him not to meddle in this matter again, so as not to cause trouble for the Great Song Dynasty.

Hearing Zhao Shu's words, Zhao Yan also sighed secretly, he knew that Zhao Shu did this for the sake of the overall situation, but he would never swallow this evil breath, so he bowed down and said, "Daddy, do you believe that there is a way to kill people thousands of miles away in this world?"
