Chapter Two Hundred and Four: One Less

After all, as the saying goes, it is better to offend a gentleman than a villain.

Pang Yizhu offended, but it was the gentleman and the villain together.

Knowing that because of Pang Yizhu, the Pang family's life in the imperial capital was not easy, Nangong Jue was relieved, and he was a little happy.

Zhong Shi then said a few innocuous little things, the only thing that surprised Nangong Jue was that the three princes, that is, King An, who was the first to be crowned king among all the princes, disappeared for no reason a month ago, and it was not until a few days ago that the news returned to Beijing, but the whereabouts of King An are still unknown.

This made the current saint very angry, and secretly ordered a thorough investigation.

You must know that since King An was seriously injured and poisoned seven years ago, his body is weak, he can't walk fast on weekdays, and he often uses a wheelchair to walk, but he is disabled, and he was appointed by the emperor to the post of Dali Siqing after breaking an old case five years ago, and has been conscientious so far, all the cases solved in his hands are not unjust, it can be said that this makes the image of the royal family in the people a lot taller.

And such a person who is dedicated to the people has been missing for nearly a month before news reaches the imperial capital, how can the emperor not be angry?

Of course, the emperor was also afraid that there was too much involved behind this matter, so he could only send someone to secretly find the whereabouts of King An, so Nangong Jue didn't know anything about it in the border city.

Otherwise, if a prince disappears, it will also cause a stir in the Northern Wu Dynasty!

Zhong Shi swallowed his saliva a little thirstily after saying this, and he also looked at the place where Nangong Jue lived a little helplessly, he didn't even have a glass of water, how did she live here for so long?

"After all that, why do you say that there is one less person?"

Seeing Zhong Shi stop suddenly, Nangong Jue asked a little nervously, and then she noticed that the other party's mouth was white and he was trying to swallow saliva, so she couldn't help but smile a little embarrassedly, and then walked into the room and took out a cowhide bag and handed it to him.

"I don't have a well in this yard, and the tank that stores water was broken two days ago, and I spent the past two days eating and drinking at Brother Park's place, and then decorating some water and coming back, but I forgot the inconvenience of not having water here."

Hearing her words, Zhong Shi showed a wry smile, he really didn't expect the other party to be able to tolerate the lack of water in the place where he lived......

But think about it, here in the border city, everyone is very water-saving on weekdays, and generally houses with wells are very rare, most people use water tanks to store water at home, and Nangong Jue stays with Park Ce the rest of the time except for resting on weekdays, and will bring water back from him, so naturally he won't care too much about whether there is a water source in the house he lives in.

Then, he opened the water bladder, and after drinking all the water in it, he felt like he was reborn, and then he hugged his fist and said to Nangong Jue:

"In two days, when the pit is filled, it will be ...... I'll bring someone over to help Brother Yu repair the vat......"

"No need, I don't think I will have time to come back and rest by then!" Nangong Jue's words made Zhong Shi stunned, and then he understood what she meant, and his face couldn't help but become a little solemn.

"Okay, don't think too much, anyway, the soldiers will come to block it, and the water will cover it...... Also, you haven't answered the question I just asked! ”

Hearing this, Zhong Shi was stunned, "That, are you asking the prince of Zhongyong?" He has been deprived of the position of the prince, and now the Marquis of Zhongyong has also been demoted and has become a Zhongyong uncle, and the house can be said to be a mess of porridge......"

"Who asked that Second Ancestor? Besides, Ah Jing said that he would make him pay, not to mention that he was just taken away from the throne of the world, even if he is now a beggar, I am not surprised at all, okay?

I'm asking about the rest of the Imperial Four! Wen Yan! Brother Wen, how has he been during this time? Did Ah Jing contact him? ”

Nangong Jue said with some annoyance, for the loyal and brave Hou Shizi...... No, now it's just Ning Yuyang, the son of Uncle Zhongyong, as far as he did, now that the tiger is falling to Pingyang, if she can still live a good life, then she will write her name upside down!

And Zhong Shi looked at her directly when he heard her words, with a little smile in his eyes, which made Nangong Jue immediately react that he actually showed his heart for Wen Yan in front of the other party, and his face couldn't help but float a red cloud, but he still glared back angrily, but he just looked a little weak-hearted and inward-looking.

Seeing this, Zhong Shi took out a letter from his bosom and handed it to her with both hands, "Young Master Jing said, if you take the initiative to ask about Gongzi Wen or Gongzi Mu, let me hand over this letter to you." ”

"So what if I didn't ask?"

Nangong Jue took the letter and asked with some displeasure, after all, listening to him, wouldn't his every move be under the control of others?

Even if that person was Nangong Jing, she still felt a little uncomfortable in her heart.

"Didn't you already ask?" Zhong Shi chuckled.

That appearance made Nangong Jue immediately raise his big fist at him, "Don't you don't learn well, just learn Achen's bad habits!"

By the way, you people have come out, what about the people in the family? ”

Looking at Zhong Shi's seemingly curious expression, Nangong Jue put the letter into her arms, and she also remembered that without these old people, wouldn't it be very troublesome for Nangong Jing and the others to act?

And Zhong Shi scratched his head a little embarrassed when he heard her words.

"That...... I got married last year, and my baby was a full moon last month. ”

"What? When did you get married? But...... Congratulations, is the child male or female? Remember to ask Achen for the full moon ceremony! Nangong Jue smiled a little helplessly and happily.

After all, the people who followed them at the beginning have also reached the age of starting a family, which also makes the burden on their shoulders heavier and heavier......

However, the other party seems to have misunderstood the question she asked, but it doesn't hurt, anyway, it's good to know how they are doing.

"Uh...... Boy, Young Master Chen has already sent us a set of small courtyards to enter. ”

"So, your deed of sale is also canceled?"

After all, giving away a house is equivalent to freedom, giving them their own place, and Zhong Shi's deed of sale should naturally be cancelled, of course, in this way, his identity will also change, how can he be sent here to pick him up?

"No, I still have a task when I get married, and soon after I come back, something happened to you again, and I need manpower, so I told Young Master Chen and Young Master Jing that when this mission is over, I will go back and cancel my registration, and in the future, I will follow the business under the hands of Young Master Chen......"

Hearing this, Nangong Jue smiled, "You still have a conscience." ”

After all, it takes a lot of time and energy for them to train people like them, and the money spent in the middle has become secondary, and Zhong Shi's choice has given them some more buffer time, which is also worthy of her praise.
