Chapter 39 Childhood Sweethearts and Brothers Turn Against Each Other

"Haha, Brother Zhu, I'll introduce to you that this is a master I met some time ago, and the master's Dharma name Mai is a high-ranking monk who travels all over the world."

Zhu Danfeng looked at the Mai master and smiled: "I have seen this master, the master is so powerful." There is a lot of wine and meat, and it is ten taels of silver when you make a shot. It's a big and comfortable thing. ”

Lan Yunjin and Mrs. Zhu covered their mouths and smiled, Mai didn't seem to care: "Wine and meat have passed through the intestines, and the Buddha has left it in his heart." Walking in the world is indispensable to have some money. ”

"Last time, the old man was reckless, and I asked the son not to be surprised."

Li Zhuang said: "Okay, okay, everyone will be friends in the future." Don't worry about the past, I'll introduce you to the master. ”

"This is my good brother Master Zhu, and her wife Mrs. Zhu, this little boy is the second son of the Zhu family, Zhu Danfeng, and this little girl is the third lady of the Zhu family. As for the eldest son, he is very powerful, he has become a four-grade official in the household department, and he is young and promising. ”

Master Li looked proud and embarrassed, and Mai smiled slightly: "Hello Master Li, Mrs. Li, Gongzi Li, Miss Li, Lao Gu actually came to the door today to ask for something." ”

Mr. Zhu and Mrs. Zhu glanced at each other, did they really come to ask for that book?

"Master Mai has something to say, and I will definitely help if I can."

Mai folded her hands together and shouted a Buddha name.

"Lao Wei has a senior brother, and his family is persecuted by traitors. Only he and his youngest son survived. I have been looking for this senior brother for many years, and I heard from the owner of Li Zhuang that Master Zhu once saved a beggar outside Lijiazhuang, and this beggar had a child next to him, I suspect that it is my senior brother. ”

"May I ask Master Zhu, is there such a thing?"

Master Zhu said: "I did save a beggar in Lijiazhuang back then, and a little beggar also begged to our house, they are indeed father and son. ”

When Master Li heard Master Zhu admit it, his eyes suddenly became hot and greedy.

"The reason why my senior brother became like that is because of a secret book of martial arts handed down by his family, dare to ask Master Zhu if that secret book is in your hands?"

Are you there? To answer yes or no?

Does the answer say it's ruined, or does it not say that it's not seen at all?

"What martial arts cheats, why don't I know, what good things can a beggar have in his hands? If there really is a martial arts cheat, then why can't he kill all those people? Zhu Danfeng shook his fan and said cynically.

Mai looked at Master Zhu with sharp eyes: "Please answer me, Master Zhu is here or not." ”

Those eyes were not big, and they seemed to jump into a thin slit under the fat on their faces. But the light from those eyes was so fierce that it seemed to pierce the heart and make people tremble.

Master Zhu felt that the big man in front of him was well, and he would immediately jump up and beat himself.

Master Zhu's forehead was already sweating: "I did see that book back then, but that brother burned it in front of me. ”

Mai drooped her eyelids and said, "Is it burned?" ”

Master Zhu swallowed a mouthful of saliva: "It was indeed burned, he said that the book caused his family to be ruined, and he burned the book in a fit of anger." ”

Mai didn't speak as if she was thinking about something, and Li Zhuang looked incredulous: "How could it be burned?" Brother Bamboo, are you mistaken? That book is very precious and useful. ”

The bamboo master said: "It's really burned, if you don't believe me, I'll look for it in my bamboo house." ”

Master Li Zhuang really wanted to find it in the Zhu family, but he couldn't find it because of the relationship with the Zhu family and the status of the Zhu family in Yang County.

Mai said: "Master Bamboo said that if it was burned, it would be burned, and I hope that Master Bamboo will not regret it in the future, and this thing will be returned to Master Bamboo." ”

Mai took out a book from her robe, put it in front of Master Bamboo, and turned to leave.

Master Li Zhuang looked like he wanted to speak and stopped, shook his sleeves at Master Zhu, and turned around and left.

After the two of them left, Master Zhu breathed a sigh of relief, and his palms were sweaty.

"How did this Brother Li become like this?"

Mrs. Zhu said, "Master, leave him alone, let's see what kind of book that monk is holding?" ”

The book is back side up, and the name is not visible.

Master Zhu picked up the book, glanced at the title, and threw the book on the ground in surprise.

Master Zhu leaned on the table, sighed, and finally came.

Mrs. Zhu picked up the book and looked at Master Zhu silently, with a little silver light in her eyes.

Master Zhu and his wife glanced at each other, took his wife's hand and said to the children: "You all come to the study with me, go and invite someone to invite Xia Kaitang, and secretly go in and out of the corner door." ”

It seems that Master Zhu is ready to tell everything.

Xia Kaitang was doing business in the yamen, and as soon as he heard that someone from the Zhu family was coming, he immediately followed.

"Is there anything that Master Zhu is looking for me?"

The subordinate said: "I don't know this little one, but early this morning, Master Li Zhuang came with a big monk, and then he ordered me to come to you." ”

When Xia Kaitang heard the great monk, he immediately knew in his heart, and saw that those people had found the Zhu family.

In fact, he was not very old at that time, but the memory is so deep.

In the first few months, he didn't dare to close his eyes every day, and when he closed his eyes, he was full of the corpses of his relatives, and he didn't dare to look at red things, which would make him think of the blood that flowed out of his relatives' bodies.

Xia Kaitang clenched the knife in his hand, now he is no longer the child who needs the protection of his parents, he will definitely not let the Zhu family repeat the mistakes of the past.

The subordinates led Xia Kaitang to the corner gate, and the two of them went in together.

When he arrived at the study, Xia Kaitang arched his hand towards Master Bamboo: "Master Bamboo." ”

Master Zhu said: "You don't have to say anything, sit down first, you were not very old back then, and you may not know so clearly." ”

Xia Kaitang sat down: "I know very well what happened back then, it was me and my father who involved the Zhu family." ”

Master Zhu thought about it, after all, he had wandered with his father for so many years, and it was not surprising that he had a deep memory.

"I don't blame you, it's those people who have bad intentions. Today, I will talk about the original incident, which is related to the life and death of a family, you should know. ”

The old man Zhu carefully told Xia Pei how he saved him back then and how he saw Xia Kaitang at the door of his house.

Zhu Danfeng looked surprised when he heard this: "It's actually the suicide note of the mighty general?" It can't be said to be a suicide note, it should be the work of a lifetime!"

"I'm ashamed to say that I read that book once, and the art of war recorded in it is indeed unparalleled in the world. That's why aliens have been staring at that book for so many years, and now they don't know what to do. ”

Zhu Danfeng closed the fan: "That book belongs to our Qi country, and now the Qi country has been in war for many years." If we can have this book, then we can definitely turn our back, and this book must not be given to a foreigner. ”

"I still don't believe that those people dare to kill in Yang County, and the eldest brother is also a fourth-grade official in the court!"

Lan Yunjin is not as optimistic as Zhu Danfeng, although it was the Jianghu people who killed the last person in the original text, but if you think about it carefully, there seem to be traces of aliens behind it.

Xia Kaitang said: "They dare, even if they don't dare, do you dare to gamble with the entire Zhu family?" ”

Zhu Danfeng didn't dare, no one dared.

"That military book is a hot potato no matter who holds it, in fact, there are already people in the imperial court who are ready to rehabilitate the general in the past two years."

Lan Yunjin said: "Why don't we go to Beijing, they will definitely not dare to act rashly in the capital." ”

Master Zhu said: "This is a solution, but if we venture to Beijing, we may be suspicious." ”

"Doesn't the eldest brother have a family letter? Or let's see. ”

What if you have a family letter? Master Zhu was puzzled, but he still opened the family letter.

"Hahaha, that's great." After reading it, Master Zhu suddenly burst out laughing.

Mrs. Bamboo asked, "What's wrong?" What are you laughing at? ”

Master Zhu handed over the letter to his wife: "The eldest daughter-in-law is pregnant, I hope we can go to Beijing to live for a while, and we can just go to Beijing justifiably."

Mrs. Zhu was even more happy: "This is already the second one, and you can't even marry a daughter-in-law, it's really useless." Don't blame us for ignoring you in the future, blame your sister for catching up with you. ”

Listening to Mrs. Zhu teasing her son, the atmosphere in the study was a lot more lively.

"It's not just about going to Beijing." There's a lot going on.

Lan Yunjin and Xia Kaitang glanced at each other: "Father and mother, don't be so happy, we still have a lot of things to solve." ”

"Dad, the Mai monk actually returned the book to you, I think he recognized the general's military book in our house."

"And although we can go to Beijing in the name of righteousness, the Zhu family's family is in Yang County, and the store has to be taken care of. And I don't think our road to Beijing will be smooth. ”

Xia Kaitang nodded, Lan Yunjin said everything he wanted to say, and these things had to be solved one by one.

Mr. Zhu said: "The store is easy to run, although it can't be closed, but we still have a lot of people in our house, all of whom are trustworthy, even if I am not in the store, I can continue to open." ”

"But what about this military book? And how do we get to Beijing? ”

Several people discussed for a long time in the study and made a plan, preparing to go to Beijing in three days, and Xia Kaitang would also go together.

On the first day, Master Zhu invited all the shopkeepers to his home and told him about his preparations for going to Beijing.

"My eldest daughter-in-law is also pregnant, and my eldest son wants our family to live in Beijing for a few days, and my wife also wants our son and daughter-in-law, so we are going to go to Beijing soon."

"That's really congratulations, but I don't know how long it will take to go to the capital? With such a big business, you can't call the shots! ”

The one who spoke was Zhu Xishi, the right-hand man of the bamboo master, surnamed Zhu, who had been working hard with the bamboo family since his ancestors.

Master Zhu said: "During the period when Xishi is not there, the affairs of the store will be decided by you, and you can discuss it with Wu and Mo." ”

"Don't shirk, you and I will grow up together, I can rest assured of your ability and temperament, this time I really want to ask you."

Master Zhu grabbed Zhuxishi's arm and increased his strength. Zhuxishi understood that this was a hint from Master Bamboo, but what was it that made him imply himself like this?
