That Gao Yongshou was young, born with red lips and bright teeth, bright eyebrows and fresh eyes, and a delicate face like a virgin, and the eunuchs and palace ladies called him "Miss Gao". Zhu Youxiao also liked him beautifully, and while paddling, he laughed with him: "Back then, Fan Li took Xi Shi to travel to the Five Lakes, a fairy companion, what a romantic one!" The descendants of hundreds of generations are envious, I am riding a boat with you in the West Garden today, how is it fun? Can you compare with him? ”

Gao Yongshou snorted lightly in his nose, and pretended to say disdainfully: "Fan Li has thousands of pieces of furniture, how can he defeat me tomorrow to thousands of miles of rivers and mountains?" He is just a minister of a remote and small country, how can he be on a par with the British lord of the world? ”

Liu Siyuan also said: "Fang is in peace today, all the people are in Xian'an, long live the Lord in Xiyuan, how can Fan Li rush for his life and lie dormant in the five lakes is comparable?" ”

Zhu Youxiao laughed: "What a clever mouth!" According to the beauty of your appearance, you should not be inferior to Xi Shi and Zheng Dan. Take advantage of the pleasure, Xiao Shouzi, you sing a meat joke for me. ”

"Long live the Lord of the Hundred Days, which passage do you want to hear? "The Little Widow Goes to the Grave", or "The Second Sister of the King"? Gao Yongshou's expression pretended to be twisted, his thin white right hand pinched an orchid finger, half-covered his face, and kept laughing. Zhu Youxiao saw that his cheeks were pink, and he made a lot of style, and he felt even more happy, but he was annoyed: "Why do you sing some old words of a little widow?" I'm tired of it. Ming'er told the music workshop to teach them to make up some new tunes, and when you are familiar with it, choose a fresh and interesting one to sing to me. ”

Liu Siyuan hurriedly said: "Long live the lord, it's not that Xiao Shouzi doesn't have nothing, but he doesn't dare to sing it to the long live lord, for fear that these contemptuous words and slang songs will not be listened to." ”

"How do you know I don't want to hear it? Aren't the two "Little Widow Going to the Grave" and "Second Sister Wang's Husband" just now also contemptible slang, so what's the matter? Sing quickly, if you annoy me, one person and one wolf, knock the two monkey cubs into the water and feed them to the king. ”

Liu Siyuan quipped: "Miss Gao, since you don't listen to any Kunqu opera lyrics, please quickly sing the newly learned "Eighteen Touches" to Long Live Lord, if it's late, don't feed Wang Ba, I'm afraid I will have to feed the fish." I don't know anything about water, you have to have the heart to feed Wang Ba, you go and feed it yourself, don't pull me on my back! You have such a peach blossom face, a slender waist and a pink neck, Wang Ba is afraid that you are soft and numb when he sees you, and he is reluctant to enter! I can't say that I can't recruit you to be the turtle's son-in-law. ”

Gao Yongshou was not annoyed, and said coquettishly: "Although the slave family does not know the water nature, but the obscene words are beautiful and embarrassing, how can the little woman open her mouth!" Zhu Youxiao saw that he was coy, and the tone of the girl's posture was not the same, and he couldn't help laughing, he had forgotten to rock the oars, and the boat slowly stopped with the waves. Just as a gust of wind blew, the red silk was blown up, and the heads and faces were wrapped around the three people, as if they were tied, and even the wooden paddles were also rolled up. Zhu Youxiao couldn't break free, it was difficult to grab the oars and paddle, the boat had nowhere to focus, and was blown by the wind in the middle of the lake, and the three people on the boat were so frightened that they stood up, dancing their hands and feet, the boat couldn't withstand the force of the three people's starting, and the wind was fierce, and the boat was shaking, and it was more and more unable to borrow any strength. The three of them panicked even more and shouted loudly. When the entourage on both sides of the strait saw this, they were so frightened that their faces were as pale as earth, and they were about to find a boat to launch the water to rescue them, but unexpectedly, several big waves surged one after another, and the boat was overturned, and the three of them fell into the center of the wave together. The big boat of Huanglong has already sailed away, hearing the sound of exclamation, Ke Yinyue, Wei Zhongxian, Wang Tiqian and others rushed to the outside of the cabin to look, and saw the boat capsized from a distance, the three of them must have been struggling in the water, helpless for a while, it was difficult to get close for a while, so anxious that Ke Yinyue sat on the board of the boat and cried, Wei Zhongxian clapped the strings and shouted, Wang Tiqian forced the eunuch around him to go into the water to rescue the driver, and everyone panicked. Seeing that the three of them were about to sink to the bottom of the lake, everyone was stomping their feet anxiously, and a small boat rushed towards the boat like an arrow, and a man dressed as a eunuch on the boat held his hands together, and the long branch went up and down. In the blink of an eye, the boat reached the center of the lake, the man on the boat did not wait to stop, a night bird threw into the forest, flew into the water, chopped the whale and cut the waves, when Zhu Youxiao was about to sink before sinking, grabbed the side, lifted his robe sleeve, dragged him to the overturned boat, paddled with one arm, and pushed towards the shore. It was early summer, the lake water was cold, soaking people's muscles and bones, the eunuch's whole body had already been soaked in cold water, his face was already blue, his strength was exhausted, his hands and feet slowed down, and there was still an arrow from the shore, so he had to firmly hold Zhu Youxiao, grab the side of the boat with one hand to breathe, and wait for help. Fortunately, the big boat of Huanglong sailed over, and Wei Zhongxian, who was standing at the bow of the boat, shouted to the eunuch in the water: "Tan Jing, don't let go, our family will go back and reward you with a house!" While speaking, dozens of people jumped off the big boat one after another, and rescued the emperor and Tan Jing on the dragon boat together. Gao Yongshou and Liu Siyuan, the two little eunuchs, had sunk to the bottom of the lake, and they were not able to rescue them, so they fed the fish and shrimp in the water.

Zhu Youlai rode out of the hot sweat all over his body, and was suddenly soaked in cold water, even frightened, and fainted, his teeth were clenched, and his face was pale. Wei Zhongxian hurriedly ordered someone to change the wet clothes on his body, quickly returned to the palace, and urgently summoned the imperial doctor for diagnosis and treatment. Zhu Youxiao lay on the dragon bed in the Qianqing Palace, but he still didn't wake up, and his body was as hot as coals. The Tai Hospital made Wu Yiru bring six imperial doctors into the palace for diagnosis, and they all said that the emperor's false fire was too blazing and should be slowly recuperated. Wang Shou'an, the admiral of the imperial pharmacy, personally prepared the medicinal materials according to the prescription of the Tai Hospital, and waited for the emperor to decoction. Who knew that Wei Zhongxian forgot to take out the fragrant incense placed in the Xibian Hall of the Qianqing Palace for a while, Xizong smelled the aroma, and felt more different, but he didn't feel that his lust was blazing, and it was unbearable. For several days, although the false fire was gone, the kidney qi was greatly lost. Wu Yiru knew that his qi and blood were weak, he was already injured five times and seven wounds, and he was greedy for the joy of the banquet, and forgot the technique of protecting his body, and damaged the skin, pulses, flesh, tendons, and bones externally, and eliminated the lungs, heart, spleen, liver, and kidneys internally. The Forbidden City was panicked, and Wei Zhongxian was even more restless, not daring to divulge the news that the dragon was seriously ill. When the ministers inquired, they were all stopped outside the Qianqing Gate, saying that the emperor was worried about state affairs, anxious and tired, and needed time to recuperate and recuperate, and should not be disturbed, even the four cabinet scholars were no exception.

After a few more days, Zhu Youxiao was still tossing and turning, and his health did not improve at all. Wei Zhongxian was in a hurry, and ordered Wu Yiru to lead the imperial doctor to take care of the emperor day and night, and moved to live in the Maoqin Palace, which was close to the Xibian Hall of the Qianqing Palace. Ke Yinyue saw that he was restless and sad all day long, afraid that he would fall ill urgently, so he was busy teaching Wang Tiqian to find a way to persuade him. Wang Tiqian rushed from the Qianqing Palace to the Maoqin Palace, and when he saw Wei Zhongxian silent, with an anxious look on his face, he persuaded: "Factory Gong, no...... Nine thousand years old" Wang Tiqian was in a hurry, and he forgot that he was not by the emperor's side, and he should be called nine thousand years old as usual, so he hurriedly changed his words: "Long live the spring and autumn season, the dragon body has always been healthy, and if you rest for a few more days, it will naturally recover, but the nine thousand years old have been working day and night these days, and the food is unpleasant, and she has lost a lot of weight." In the future, once the blame of the Long Live Lord is down, the little one can't afford it. Please be 9,000 years old and take care of your body with the common people in the world as your thoughts. Nine thousand years old tired for many days, so I am relieved to rest here, long live Lord has a small one around him to serve for nine thousand years old for a day and a half, and it is expected that there is no big deal. ”

"Hey! Our family can't rest assured that the dragon body of the Long Live Lord is also assured of the wealth and lives of so many people! But you must be careful, don't be careless, and report something quickly. Our family can't settle down here, always thinking about the things in the palace before, or go back to the old house to calm down, think more ideas, and make more plans! Wang Tiqian smiled and said gratefully: "The little ones all rely on the protection of the nine thousand years old, and they all rely on the grace of the nine thousand years old. The little one went and told the children to prepare a sedan chair to send the nine thousand years old home. With that, he retreated out of the Maoqin Palace.

Wei Zhongxian drank tea for a while, and then got up with a blue tweed sedan chair with five mountains and a tin top of the sky, and was about to order the sedan chair to be picked up, and the eunuch Pei Yousheng hurriedly ran to the door of the sedan chair, and whispered: "Nine thousand years old, the governor of Jinyi Weitian has something important to report." Wei Zhongxian lay on his back in the sedan chair tiredly, waved his left hand impatiently and said, "Order him to report in front of the sedan chair!" ”

Not long after, a gust of wind also seemed to break into a bearded strong man, with a red top beaded gold helmet on his head, wearing waist-length silver fish scale armor, red robe and yellow belt, long sword soap boots, very majestic, to the front of the sedan chair, but the face of the fierce color suddenly disappeared without a trace, as if suddenly much shorter, the expression was humble, and said respectfully: "The child Tian Ergeng greets his father 9,000 years old." Wei Zhongxian lifted a corner of the sedan curtain with his left hand and said lightly: "What's the matter, so hot?" Tian Ergeng saw that Wei Zhongxian was a little sullen, his expression became more and more respectful, he looked sincerely frightened, and his words became more and more clumsy, and said: "The child's subordinates have caught two Jianghu warlocks who measure words. ”

"Humph! You're really getting better and better, when is it now, such a big thing is bothering our family! Wei Zhongxian suddenly opened his slightly closed eyes and stared at Tian Ergeng fiercely. Tian Ergeng's legs were weak, and he almost fell on the sedan chair, and said in a trembling voice: "The child doesn't dare!" ”

"Then you're not going out yet?"

Tian Ergeng almost cried, and said in a snort: "These two Jianghu warlocks are different and very famous. ”

"What's unusual? Is it more important than the things in the palace? ”

"The child doesn't mean that, the child means ......"

"What's the wordy? How are they unusual? ”

"They tested Prince Xin's words."

"Oh—Prince Shin?"

"Yes."

"Where?"

"On the Sorghum Bridge."

"What words are you measuring?"

"The child doesn't know."

"What about the two men?" Wei Zhongxian's tone suddenly rose.

"Already, I have already arrested Fusi in Dongchang North Town, and I haven't, I haven't interrogated." Tian Ergeng was already sweating profusely at this time. Wei Zhongxian closed his eyes and said lazily, "Is this still going to be punished?" What a fool! Take them to the old house to teach us to meet and see where it is sacred? But remember, don't let them know too much. ”

Outside the Xuanwu Gate, there is a two-entry quadrangle, gray bricks and gray tiles, and there are two angry lanterns with red characters on the door, printed with two neat big characters of "Wei Mansion". This was originally a house bought by Wei Zhongxian in the Wanli period of Emperor Shenzong, and after it soared, it built several tall and spacious other houses, but the old mansion has been retained, and it has not been renovated and expanded, which is somewhat old, but it is still exquisite and elegant. Wei Zhongxian didn't come often, he only lived for a few days when he had spare time, and he had few desires, thinking about those poor days that were sparse and formless. The house is empty on weekdays, and only a dozen family members are left to clean and take care of it and repair it regularly. When the head of the Wei Mansion heard that the nine thousand years old were going to visit the old mansion, he hurriedly sent more people to carefully clean up and clean up, and rushed early to greet him outside the black lacquer door.

Wei Zhongxian and Tian Ergeng entered the courtyard one after the other, passed the weeping flower door, saw that the inside was very clean, the two big houses in the middle were arranged into a flower hall, surrounded by jasmine, gardenia, moon season and other colorful flowers, scarlet felt paved the ground, agarwood smoker, in the center there was a golden silk nanmu Taishi chair, on the top of the golden heart green satin mattress, above hanging a pair of ebony gilt short couplets: three dynasties hold the sun, a pillar of optimus. Wei Zhongxian looked at the oily gardenia with smooth branches and leaves, smelled the sweet and greasy fragrance, a smile appeared on his face, glanced at Wang Chaoyong beside him, and said with a shallow smile: "I still know our family's thoughts, I really don't hurt you in vain!" Wang Chaoyong was flattered, and replied with his back: "The old grandfather has won the award, and the little one is really ashamed." This is a small matter, and I dare not teach my grandfather to talk more. ”

Wei Zhongxian had just sat on the Taishi's chair, and two little maids with good faces brought up the high-grade dragon well. Wei Zhongxian ordered Tian Ergeng, who was standing beside him, to sit down and taste tea, Tian Ergeng still had palpitations, and thanked him: "In front of the nine thousand years old, how can there be a child's seat?" Standing. ”

Wei Zhongxian said with a smile: "Da Lang, my father and son, and they are in a private house, so there is no need to restrict any court etiquette. Tian Ergeng moved his chair back and sat sideways. After a cup of tea, the dynasty used it to report: "Lord Xu, the head of the Beizhen Fu Division, brought the prisoners." Wei Zhongxian put down the teacup and nodded slightly. A middle-aged man with a white face and a slight beard bowed in, walked a few steps quickly, knelt at Wei Zhongxian's feet, and bowed: "Little Xu Xianchun respectfully invites Grandpa Nine Thousand Years Old Jin An." ”

"Get up! How did the prisoners bring it? ”

"The little ones put masks on them."

"Didn't you say anything?"

"The little one just interrogated them casually, and when I heard that the master wanted to see them, he didn't dare to torture them."

"Good! Ask them to come in, we also want to test a word to see if it works? ”

After a while, the hunchbacked old man and the young man with their hands tied behind their backs and masked in a black cloth were brought into the flower hall, Wei Zhongxian laughed dryly and said, "I heard that you have tested the words of Prince Xin?" ”

"Prince Xin?" The two of them couldn't help but exclaim, "The villain hasn't seen any Prince Xin." ”

Wei Zhongxian laughed and said: "It is reasonable to say that you grass people will not be able to see each other, even if you take a look at each other, you will not know each other." A poor and sour talent wearing a blue cloth shirt to play by the Gaoliang River, who would have thought that it would be the royal brother of the current saint, the noble Prince Xin! The hunchbacked old man trembled all over his body, and asked in horror: "That man in blue is Prince Xin?" You, how did you know that you had met our master and apprentice? ”

"Hahaha......" Wei Zhongxian laughed and said, "Our family already knows the origin of your master and apprentice. Your surname is Zheng Yangtian, a native of Putian, Fujian. This doll is your apprentice. Xu Xianchun giggled for a while, and said flatteringly: "Hugh said that you two big living people are geese flying in the sky, and it is easy for Grandpa to distinguish between male and female!" ”
