154 Confession (2nd Watch)

"You're here to play cards?" The old lady asked.

The old man was stunned.

Playing cards, playing cards?

The old lady knocked on the melon seeds and said: "Don't play the leaf card today, push the pai gow, and the price of fifty copper plates starts." ”

What is the Queen Mother talking about? What leaf cards? What pushes pai gow?

The old man looked at the Queen Mother fixedly, and slowly stood up from the ground, he found that although the person in front of him looked like the Queen Mother, his clothes and bearing did not look like the Queen Mother.

"What do you see?" The old lady asked impatiently.

"You...... Don't know me anymore? The old man asked, pointing to himself.

When he said this, the old lady really looked at him carefully.

Looks like a dog.

It's still a little familiar.

Where have you seen it?

The old lady doesn't remember anything from the past, and occasionally recalls a few, but it's all very fragmentary.

But this old man gave her a somewhat unusual feeling.

Isn't that unusual?

In the past, when the old sacrificial wine was an official in the court, he did not oppose the Empress Dowager Zhuang.

He is a conservative and resolutely opposes harem interference, especially women who listen to politics.

As early as when the first emperor was alive, the old sacrificial wine had a lot of excerpts to persuade the first emperor to abolish the queen, he called the virtuous queen the demon queen in the fold, confused the harem, relatives interfered in politics, and was ruthless and careless of human life.

After being virtuous, he was once beaten into the cold palace by the first emperor, which was given by worshipping the old sacrificial wine.

Although she walked out of the cold palace in less than half a year with her excellent palace fighting skills, she earned half a year's less silver and bought a lot of her previous savings.

Cutting off her money is like killing her parents!

After that, the virtuous queen regarded the old sacrificial wine as a thorn in the flesh.

The old sacrificial wine was exiled for five years, endured all the hardships, dried up in the sun, and was more than ten years old, which is the handiwork of the virtuous queen.

The two fought until the death of the first emperor, and after the virtuous deceased, he killed the prince, supported the son of Concubine Jing to ascend to the throne, and became the queen mother of the ruling and opposition powers.

It's always temporary.

Why is it temporary, because the old sacrificial wine controls the Guozijian, and the Guozijian gathers the most talented teenagers in the whole Zhao country.

It is an exaggeration to say that the old sacrificial wine controls the future of Zhaoguo.

Empress Dowager Zhuang was planning to bring over the power of the Guozijian, and at that time the king of Anjun was about to return to China, and the Empress Dowager Zhuang proposed to His Majesty to set up a position that could be added to the Guozijian for juvenile sacrificial wine.

His Majesty agreed, but it was not the nephew of the Empress Dowager Zhuang who was canonized as a juvenile sacrificial wine, but the little marquis of Zhaodu.

This little marquis is the apprentice of the old sacrificial wine.

Empress Dowager Zhuang galloped past with 10,000 unspeakable horses in her heart.

The old sacrificial wine smiled crookedly.

This round seems to have been won by the old sacrificial wine.

But not long after, on Chinese New Year's Eve, Guozijian suddenly ran out of water, and Zhaodu Xiaohou Ye was burned alive by the fire.

……

Since the old man resigned, he hadn't recalled the past for a long time, and now when he saw the Queen Mother at first glance, his thoughts couldn't help but be pulled back to the bloody court.

The old lady said with a puzzled expression: "Why don't you speak?" Why do you see my eyes so complicated? And when I saw you, my feelings seem to have become a little complicated! ”

It's still unspeakably complicated, it's like the two of them are old enemies, and she can't wait to find a knife to cut him!

Wait a minute.

Take a knife and cut him?

The old lady glanced at the old man suspiciously.

They knew each other, as was certain from the look in his eyes and his words.

He was afraid of her.

I didn't dare to look her in the eyes, as if I was a little weak-hearted.

I also knelt down when I saw her, how sorry is this?

"I know who you are!" The old lady had a flash of inspiration in her mind, and threw the melon seeds on the table, "Are you the one who abandoned me back then...... Coming back to my bad guy? ”

Old man: "......!! ”

Gu Jiao and Gu Yan came back first, and as soon as the two walked through the hall, they found that there was one more person in the backyard.

Gu Jiao looked quite familiar.

The main thing is that there are no big shoe prints on her face, and she doesn't recognize them for a while.

"Auntie?" Gu Jiao asked with her eyes.

The old lady glared at a shivering negative man with hatred, and sighed, "Your aunt and grandfather. ”

Gu Jiao: "......"

Gu Xiaoshun: "......"

Xiao Liulang, Gu Yan, and Xiao Jingkong entered the house from behind, carrying large bags of things in their hands, followed by a carriage carrying New Year's goods.

Several people worked with the coachman to unload the New Year's goods from the carriage.

Xiao Liulang walked in with a pot of sesame oil, and like Gu Jiao and Gu Xiaoshun, he was stunned when he walked through the hall.

In the courtyard sat the old lady, Gu Jiao, Gu Xiaoshun, and the old man who was not so trembling but still pale.

There is no way, I was "cuckolded" to the first emperor, and I was terrified!

"Grandpa." Gu Jiao introduced.

Xiao Liulang: "......"

I didn't see you for a while, and you picked up an aunt and grandfather at home again?

Gu Jiao was wronged: I didn't pick it up this time.

Xiao Liulang glanced at the old man with a complicated expression.

The old man's mind was blank at this moment, and he didn't even remember that he had come to recognize Xiao Liulang, but he frantically confessed to the first emperor in his heart - Weichen and the Queen Mother are definitely pure monarchs and ministers!

The old lady's anger had been suppressed, and she asked lightly: "Okay, open the skylight and say something bright, do we have children?" ”

The old man slipped from his chair and almost fell to the ground.

He sat up on the chair and said with a pale face, "No, no." ”

The old lady nodded: "I don't think so, otherwise I wouldn't have traveled thousands of miles to join Liulang." ”

Xiao Liulang looked at the old man, and the old man wiped his cold sweat.

Fighting with Empress Dowager Zhuang for a lifetime is the most irresistible in today's round, and it can be said that there is no power to fight back!

Empress Dowager Zhuang said casually: "When you were young, you abandoned me, and now that you are old, you want to come to my nephew to raise you, but there is no door, you get out!" ”

The old man was relieved, and for the first time he felt that the rolling word was so beautiful!

The old man still had an unreal feeling when he left the courtyard.

He wanted to find out what was going on, so he didn't leave, so he waited by the door.

And Xiao Liulang didn't disappoint him, and he really came out after a while.

The two were not surprised to see each other, as if they had calculated that one of the other would not leave, and the other would not not not come out.

Xiao Liulang has lost the panic at the mouth of the alley last time.

The old man had mixed feelings in his heart: "The one in it is the queen mother, right?" How did you end up with the Queen Mother? You can not admit that you are Ah Heng, but you can't deny that she is the Queen Mother, and the Queen Mother is not dead. ”

Xiao Liulang was silent.

The old man asked sadly, "How can this be?" What happened to you and the Queen Mother? The Queen Mother has amnesia, you don't have it, you tell me! ”

Xiao Liulang remained silent.

The old man closed his eyes painfully: "Okay, you don't want to say, I won't force you, I'll come to see you another day." Today's ...... I'll keep it a secret for you. ”

Xiao Liulang owed a debt and turned around and went into the courtyard.

"Your leg ......," the old man's worried gaze fell on his right leg.

Xiao Liulang paused: "It's not in the way." ”

It was the only thing he said to himself.

The old man felt that he chased him out, maybe just to say these three words to him.

He didn't want to worry about him himself.

The old man's heart was sour.

Xiao Liulang entered the courtyard, and the old man also returned to the carriage.

In fact, today's "harvest" is not only to meet the Queen Mother, but also to meet his little benefactor.

He didn't expect her to be ...... with Ah Heng No, it's time to call Rokuro.

She and Rokuro turned out to be husband and wife.

What is the fate of this?

In the courtyard, the family looked at the old lady in unison.

"Auntie, isn't it sad that my aunt and grandfather are really gone?" The little headroom asked.

In this family, there are not many people who know that the old lady is not Xiao Liulang's aunt, but Gu Xiaoshun is one of them, when the old lady fainted at the door of Gu Jiao and Xiao Liulang's house, Gu Xiaoshun was also present.

After that, Gu Yan, Xiao Jingkong, Yao and others thought that the old lady was really Xiao Liulang's aunt, and they came to him thousands of miles away.

Therefore, when the aunt and grandfather appeared, the little clearance people believed it almost without suspicion.

Gu Xiaoshun also believed it, because he had been together for so long, he had forgotten that his aunt had picked it up.

The old lady swallowed a melon seed: "What am I sad about? He is not pure when he is not with me! ”

Who wants to spend the rest of their lives with a bad old man?

Doesn't it smell good when you play cards every day?

Little Clearance: "Oh. ”

When Gu Jiao was cooking in the stove house, Xiao Jingkong staggered in, pulled Gu Jiao's clothes, and said, "Jiaojiao, let me tell you something." ”

"What's the matter?" Gu Jiao asked.

Xiao Jingkong tilted his little head and looked at her: "My brother-in-law has a nickname, called Ah Heng, who is rampant and domineering." ”

Although his brother-in-law didn't admit it, he already decided so in his heart, it was a rampant and domineering Heng!

Gu Jiao looked at him funny: "Really?" How do you know? ”

Xiao Jingkong said: "I heard my aunt and grandfather call, I saw my aunt and grandfather that day." ”

Gu Jiao: "Oh? ”

Xiao Jingkong sighed: "My brother-in-law and I came back from school, at the mouth of the alley, my aunt and grandfather called my brother-in-law a Heng, but my brother-in-law ignored him and ran away with me." Afterwards, I asked my brother-in-law, and my brother-in-law also said that my aunt and grandfather recognized the wrong person. Brother-in-law is really unfilial, even if he doesn't want to recognize his aunt and grandfather, he can't treat his old man like this. Master Jiang taught us to respect the old and love the young. ”

Xiao Jingkong felt that it was not quite right that day, and today his aunt and grandfather came to the door, which made him firm up his guess.

Bad brother-in-law really had a ghost that day!

The bad brother-in-law is an unfilial descendant.

He can't do that in the future.

After the complaint, Xiao Jingkong deeply felt the heavy responsibility on his shoulders.

He went to the study and picked up his Chinese books that he hated.

The bad brother-in-law is unreliable and tired.

From today onwards, he will have to work harder to support his family well in the future.

In the stove house, Gu Jiao recalled the words of the small clear space.

Ever seen?

Also called nicknamed?

In this way, that person knew Xiao Liulang.

Judging from Xiao Liulang's reaction, Xiao Liulang is also very likely to know each other.

According to Gu Jiao's observation of that person, that person obviously knew the old lady, and it is difficult to say whether it is the real couple for the time being.

The old lady has a confused memory, and it is possible to recognize the wrong person.

That's not the point.

The point is that the person knows Xiao Liulang and the old lady, and Xiao Liulang also knows him, so does Xiao Liulang also know the old lady?

When he rescued the old lady and took each other in without complaint, it wasn't because he was suddenly kind, but because they were old acquaintances?

King Anjun also knew the old lady......

Gu Jiao used firewood branches to write a few names on the ashes of the grass and trees.

The old lady, King Anjun, Xiao Liulang, Xuanping Houfu, A Heng.

……

But it was said that after the old man returned to the carriage, his mood could not be calm for a long time.

Empress Dowager Zhuang did not deal with the Xuanping Marquis Mansion, nor did she deal with herself, while Xiao Liulang was both a member of the Xuanping Marquis Mansion and his own student.

Putting Xiao Liulang next to the demon queen of the country, the old man was not at ease.

"No, I have to keep an eye on her!"

The old man returned to the capital this time, in fact, because a close friend for many years was critically ill and his life was not long, and he came to see him for the last time.

When I saw it, I planned to continue to retreat to the mountains and forests.

But now, he has changed his mind.

He quietly used his connections that had been silent for many years to rent a small house in Bishui Hutong, which happened to be next door to Xiao Liulang and Gu Jiao.

The old man slid in.

He didn't have many servants, only Liu Quan and a temporarily hired coachman.

On the first day he moved in, he built a ladder and stood on the wall to observe the movements of the demon after the disaster.

The old lady had already spotted him.

This haunting old man, who didn't want her when he was young, but wanted to get her back when he was old?

Dream on!

The old lady resisted the urge to slash the person to death, and went back to the house to sleep.

But she was lying on the bed, tossing and turning, and the more she thought about it, the more she felt that she couldn't swallow this breath!

She went to the kitchen, picked up a kitchen knife, and went next door in a rage.

The old man stared for a while and became sleepy, and went back to sleep.

The difference is that he fell asleep.

But halfway through his sleep, he felt a chill on his neck, and he woke up instantly, and when he opened his eyes, he saw the old lady pointing a kitchen knife at him.

He was taken aback: "What do you do?" ”

The old lady put the kitchen knife on his neck and said mightily: "Hand over the private money!" ”

The old sacrificial wine that was inexplicably robbed: "......!! ”
