"Brother is lenient and self-prudent, don't worry about each other, and my brother will come back at the end of the autumn of the next year, so as to decide on the plan to restore the country..."

At night, Xiao Zong couldn't sleep, couldn't stop worrying, and immediately called the strategist Zhu An to discuss the matter in secret, and then whispered to Zhu An, Zhu An took the order and left, and personally led a team of people to steal the north city during the third watch.

Two days later, when it was nearly dusk, the western sky was like blood, reflecting the afterglow of the setting sun, chaotic and dirty.

One person hurried into the Assassin's Mansion, and after a while, he saw Xiao Zong and Zhu An hurriedly leaving the mansion and went straight to the Wolong Inn on North Street.

In the secluded room, Xiao Lie, the son of Xiao Baokun, stood with cold eyebrows and solemn eyes.

"Brother Xian! I'm looking forward to you! Xiao Zong was excited.

"I haven't seen you for nearly a year, but my brother is okay?!" Xiao Lie was also excited.

After thinking about it, Xiao Zong frowned and asked, "When does my uncle want to start the army?" Xiao Lie said: "Since the beginning of the year, Yizhou and Xuzhou have been in turmoil, there has been no peace at the border, there have been constant riots, and the relationship between the two Koreas has become increasingly tense... In the border territory, the soldiers of the two dynasties are at peace with each other on the surface, but secretly there is a great tendency for ice and fire to intersect..."

Xiao Zong said: "Isn't this situation just right!" War is an opportunity to restore the country! Xiao Lie said: "What Brother Xian said is extremely true, but although the two dynasties fought endlessly at the border, they did not capture a city or a pool... Land is the foundation of a country, and if it is not violated, it is difficult to provoke war... From this point of view, the time is not yet ripe, so we have to wait and see what happens. ”

Xiao Zong said: "If the virtuous brother says so, then it will be until what year and month..."Xiao Lie suddenly smiled and said: "Brother don't worry, if you don't encounter a good opportunity, can't you create a good opportunity?" Xiao Zong asked hurriedly, and Xiao Lie whispered.

Xiao Zong clapped his hands when he heard this, "The long-awaited day is coming!" Xiao Lie said: "When the time comes, my brother will take revenge and ascend to the throne, and my brother will support him with my father!" Xiao Zong was even more overjoyed when he heard it.

The next night, Xiao Lie said goodbye and went north.

"Zhu An, what did you do the night before yesterday when you caused the adults to leave the house in a panic?" Zheng Xiaoqiao asked in a weird manner, she seemed to notice something wrong.

"Oh, my lord's old friend came to look for him, and I went out of the house with my lord." Zhu An's demeanor is calm.

"If you are greeting, why don't you come to the house?"

"The lord also wanted to invite him into the house, but he didn't expect that the prince refused to come in every possible way, saying that he had something important to take care of and couldn't stay for a long time, so the lord just gave up."

Then, Zheng Xiaoqiao asked the West and asked no one, which made Zhu Anxin angry, "Madam, if you can't believe in your humble position, you can interrogate the adult directly." "Will go," it is also wise to be deaf and dumb sometimes, and I humbly advise my wife not to ask about this matter again, so as not to cause trouble and burn herself. "After that, he went away coldly.

Zheng Xiaoqiao was stunned and speechless, staring at Zhu An leaving in a daze but unable to speak, she never thought that Zhu An would be so bold and presumptuous in front of her, which she had never seen before.

"Good! The tiger fell in Pingyang and was bullied by dogs! Now even a little strategist dares to play a powerful role in front of me! Zheng Xiaoqiao, who was blushing with anger, overturned the tea cup on the table, and the scattered flowers were so frightened that they didn't dare to raise their heads, and stood quietly like a stake.

After a long while, Zheng Xiaoqiao called her to come close to listen to the order, and said that the flowers would retreat.

One day, an incident happened in front of the Assassin's Mansion.

An old woman was in rags, limped to the door of the mansion, and said tremblingly: "This lord, is this big courtyard a thorn mansion?" The guard looked at it and said, "Where did you come from called Hanako, get out!" The old woman was busy begging, and she made her intentions clear.

"Which one is called Miaoqing? I've never heard of it! Don't be pestered anymore, you old woman, go quickly! The guards were irritated. The old woman staggered a few steps and suddenly wiped her tears and cried: "My family Miaoqing is obviously serving the official family in this courtyard, how can you not recognize it..."

Seeing this, the guards wanted to rush, but at this moment, Mengyan happened to come out, and it was Ziying who ordered her to go to the street to catch a pair of bergamot.

Mengyan didn't pay attention to it, but after walking a few steps, she heard the old woman call the word 'Miaoqing', which made her stunned and looked back.

"Mother??" Mengyan blurted out and walked closer.

"Miaoqing? Child! The old woman wept bitterly for a moment.

Mengyan and the old woman are mother and daughter, and after the two recognized each other, they hugged and cried.

After talking about the bitterness and hardship, and the road was bumpy, Mengyan asked her mother to wait outside the door first, turned around and hurried into the house, but unexpectedly met Sanhua.

"What are you crying about?" Scattered flowers block the way.

"My mother is sick and has nowhere to go, I'm going to find my mother!" Mengyan said anxiously.

"Wait! The Assassin's Mansion does not allow slaves to enter, have you forgotten this rule?! "It's hard to scatter flowers.

"My mother is seriously ill and critical, please let me pass!"

"What disease does the old woman have?" Sanhua asked again unhurriedly.

"Tuberculosis..."

Sanhua was shocked when she heard this, and then summoned the guards to push Meng Yan out of the door, turned around and ran towards Zheng Xiaoqiao's room.

After a while, Sanhua ran back to the door and said, "Madame has an order, this mother and daughter are not allowed to enter the house!" Wait for the adults to deal with it! ”

Mengyan was at a loss, with a desperate face, she knelt in front of the house with her old mother in her arms, leaning on each other, crying again and again.

After a long while, Qingxia suddenly went out first, and it turned out that Ziying saw that Mengyan had not come back, so she called her to greet her.

Qingxia looked at the mother and daughter kneeling on the ground and said in surprise: "Why is Ah Mei kneeling here?" Who is this lady? Mengyan wiped her tears and told the truth.

Qingxia rushed in in surprise, and hurriedly told Ziying about the matter, Ziying was also surprised, and hurried away without saying a word, and Xiao Zong also arrived.

"The little maid doesn't know the rules, how dare she bring a tuberculosis person into my house!" Xiao Zong scolded.

"My lord! My mother is seriously ill and works hard for a day, and if she doesn't ask for medicine, her life will be difficult to protect! Mengyan begged, "The adult is kind and kind, and the maid begs to take him in..."

"Bastard! Tuberculosis is a contagious disease, do you want to kill everyone in the house? Xiao Zong scolded: "Pass my order to drive this mother and daughter out of the city quickly, so as not to harm the innocent!" The guard covered his mouth and nose and walked over.

"Wait!" Ziying suddenly opened her mouth and stopped: "My lord, the medical book says that although tuberculosis is fierce, there is a distinction between infectious and non-stained, and then look at Grandma's face is red, her eyes are not cloudy, and she is very similar to being unstained, if the medicine is appropriate, it is not difficult to heal." ”

"My wife and sister actually know medical science?" Xiao Zong was surprised: "If it weren't for the doctor's diagnosis, it would be difficult to convince the public with just your words." ”

"If you can trust me, I will send someone to call for a doctor." After that, Ziying told Qingxia to go to the doctor quickly.

The doctor who was invited to hear that it was tuberculosis and looked afraid, and tiptoed to reluctance to approach, and then under Xiao Zong's strong order, he took the pulse to see a doctor, and the result was as Ziying expected, this kind of tuberculosis is not contagious.

"I implore the adults to be kind and allow their mother and daughter to enter the house, and Ziying will arrange it properly. If something happens, Ziying is willing to be punished! Ziying bowed and bowed.

Xiao Zong suddenly said: "Since Mengyan is your minion, it's up to you to decide!" "Said that he had entered the house.

Subsequently, Ziying hurriedly ordered the guards to bring the mother and daughter into the mansion and place them in an idle room.
