Chapter 74: Recruiting Relatives
I saw that the crowd was looking up at the second floor of a house, and there was a woman standing on the fence of the building, covered with a light veil, dressed in red. Qing Huan squeezed into the crowd, and Su Ying was afraid that she would be scattered, so she had to protect behind her.
"Hey, big brother, what's going on?" Qing Huan pulled a person next to him and asked with interest.
"You don't know!" The man looked disdainful, "This is the daughter of a big family in Ningzhou, and she is recruiting relatives here!" Look, look at that couplet, whoever is right, and the couplet on the right is the same as the one covered by the red cloth, who can be the son-in-law of this family! ”
"yes, yes! The young lady of this family will recruit relatives here every month, and it has been more than a year, and no one has been on that pair, and no one knows what the next link is! Another person on the side said.
Qing Huan pursed his lips, where is this recruiting relatives, this is obviously looking for someone, obviously people are looking for someone who can say the next link. There were too many people in front of him, and Qing Huan couldn't see what the couplet was writing clearly. I had to jump up and down, but I could only see a small part.
On either side of the couplet were two tables, filled with pen, ink, paper, and inkstones, and a long line formed behind the table, and the literati were waiting for their couplets to be taken by the woman upstairs.
Qing Huan couldn't see it, so he had to give up, and caught the little brother next to him and nagged: "Hey, why don't you go over and take a look!" ”
The little brother blushed and said, "I'm just here to join in the fun, I've already married a wife!" Hehe...... "After speaking, he touched his head embarrassedly.
Qing Huan just wanted to laugh at him mercilessly, but a woman squeezed over, grabbed the little brother's ear angrily, and said, "I just know that you are here again!" ”
"Oops, hey, don't mess around! I'm leaving, I'm leaving! After saying that, he bared his teeth and followed the woman away.
Qing Huan covered his mouth and chuckled when he saw this scene, most of the people here came to join in the fun, and there were only a few people who could really match the couplet. But the beloved person that the woman was looking for did not know where.
Su Ying was squeezed around by the crowd, her face was a little impatient, she took Qing Huan's hand, and said in a cold voice: "Let's go!" ”
Qing Huan turned his head and pouted when he saw his expression, knowing that Su Ying must not like so many people, so he nodded, "Oh." ”
It's just that she didn't walk a few steps, but Qing Huan caught a glimpse of a figure, she pulled Su Ying and said, "Hey, isn't this the Fangzheng?" ”
Su Ying looked up and looked in the direction pointed by Qing Huan, and sure enough, he saw the man. is still dressed in mourning clothes and white, probably just came here from Jiaofu, and he didn't have time to change.
He stood there, no one knew him, no one came near him, and he stood by the lamplight, his eyes gloomy with some sorrow, and it made people feel that their hearts ached for him.
Su Ying just glanced at it lightly, and wanted to pull Qing Huan away, but Qing Huan said, "Why don't you go over?" ”
Su Ying didn't speak, raised her eyebrows, Qing Huan immediately understood, quickly shut up, and followed behind Su Ying. To be honest, she was a little biased, and subconsciously felt that Jiao Xiheng was a bad person, pitiful and square, but she didn't know what the truth was.
So Su Ying didn't want to go over with her at this time, not only because Fang Zheng was a meaningless person to him, but more importantly, as an emperor, he had to remain impartial in any situation.
If this moment passes, it means that his heart is biased towards square. Qing Huan held his cheeks and nodded secretly, sure enough, this is Su Ying!
But Su Ying didn't think about it so much at all, he just didn't want to go over, it was too noisy. Su Ying lowered her head, just in time to see her unfathomable look, a helpless face, I don't know what this girl is thinking.
Fang Zheng stood outside the crowd, glanced at the second floor a few times, clenched his fists, gritted his teeth and left. The family revenge has not been avenged, the bones of his grandfather are not cold, and the pigs and dogs living in hundreds of people in the Fang Mansion are not as good, why is he still thinking about this kind of thing!
Finally, he took a deep look at the shadow on the second floor and turned to leave.
And a few people in the shadows quietly followed, knocked him unconscious, and put him in a sack!
Qing Huan and Su Ying were speechless along the way.
Xin'er had been waiting for her to come back in the room, and when she heard footsteps, she hurriedly opened the door: "Master, you're back!" Forehead...... Wang Shang ...... "looked up but saw that Su Ying was also there, and was about to salute, but Su Ying waved his hand.
She hurriedly gave way, Su Ying led Qing Huan in, Qing Huan blinked and said to Xin'er: "We are in Ningzhou now, there are many people, and there are not so many rules, so you don't have to be polite!" ”
Xin'er nodded and said, "The slave knows!" Master, the water is ready, now do you want to bathe? ”
"Well, wait a minute!" Qing Huan looked at Su Ying, it was estimated that he would stay here for a while, anyway, she was not in a hurry.
She was about to ask Xin'er to prepare tea, but she heard Su Ying say, "You go to bathe, I have something to do tonight, so I won't come to accompany you." ”
"Ah, what's the matter? Not coming tonight? Qing Huan was a little lost, but after speaking, she couldn't wait to bite off her tongue, what was she talking about!
"What? Want me to stay? He stared at her with a smile, which made Qing Huan blush again, and stammered: "Cai, Cai, no, I just want to know something!" ”
Su Ying patted her head, like a little pet, and said with a smile: "You don't have to worry about anything, go take a bath and rest early!" ”
With that, he strode away. Qing Huan wanted to say something, but Su Ying had already gone away.
"Poof!" Xin'er on the side finally couldn't help laughing! Qing Huan glared angrily, and asked with a red face, "What are you laughing at!" ”
Xin'er hurriedly shook her head and said, "The slave's fault, the slave's fault!" It's just that the master was like a little resentful woman just now! ”
"Po Xin'er, no big or small! Whoever you say complains about the woman, who you say complains about the woman! Are you still running? Come over to me you! Qing Huan chased Xin'er in the room and made a fuss.
"Master, Xin'er is wrong, Xin'er is wrong!" A chase battle finally ends with Xin'er's begging for mercy.
The water was shining, the petals were fragrant, and Qinghuan was in the bathtub, finally quiet. The water swept across her white arms and landed on her shoulders, and three thousand black hairs were scattered over her shoulders. White is transparent, black is bewitching, black and white are intertwined.
Qing Huan stretched out his hand to puff a few handfuls of water, staring at one place in a daze. Xin'er is right, Su Ying has been too accommodating to her recently, and being kind to her makes her forget her identity and what she should do.
She and Su Ying have an insurmountable gap. Su Ying is now purging the traitors around him, such as Liu Zhenguo, at that time, what will he do with Liu Qianrou, when the woman who was once held in the palm of his hand becomes the daughter of a criminal minister, there is no doubt that he will not let Liu Qianrou be a noble concubine.
And what about her? The emperor's heart is as deep as the sea. Su Ying's sentence "The world is peaceful" really won't change? If there is really such a day, Su Ying has changed, when the South Vietnam and the North Qing Beacon face each other, will he still be so good to her? Will she still take care of her children's personal affairs?
"Alas......"
In the dead of night, the candlelight flickered, and a faint sigh was heard, and the slightest wisp disappeared as soon as the wind blew......
In a dilapidated house on the outskirts of Ningzhou, a basin of cold water was splashed on Fang Zheng's head, and he woke up quietly, with a pain in the back of his head. There was a little drifting trance in front of him, and he shook his head and finally saw the person in front of him clearly!
"Awake?" Jiao Xiheng's face, a little hideous, "You want to frame me?" It's up to you? ”
"Jiao Xiheng, if you don't want people to know, unless you don't do it! Let me go! Fang Zheng had hatred in his eyes, blaming him for his own carelessness, he didn't expect Jiao Xiheng to dare to kidnap him on the cusp of this storm!
"Let go of you? Let go of you and let you frame me? Jiao Xiheng laughed, "It's a pity, after tonight, you won't have a chance again!" ”
"Framing you? You're so brazen! Fang Zheng took a sip, at this time he was like a beast, his eyes were split, "For the sake of the state capital, you are plotting, colluding with everyone, framing my grandfather, and destroying the memorabilia written by my grandfather!" My grandfather was unjustly killed, and hundreds of people from our family were recruited into the army. ”
"Haha! So what, I intercepted your grandfather's letter, I bought the officials to impeach your grandfather! But so what, after tonight, no one will know the truth! Jiao Xi pinched his chin with a look of regret.
"Tut-tut, your Fang family is really like that, you are like this, and your grandfather is like this! Fang Zheng, hahaha, do you know that if your grandfather could be flexible, it wouldn't be like this! ”
"I'm not the only one in Ningzhou who regards your grandfather as a thorn in the eye and a thorn in the flesh, and I'm just doing everyone a favor." Jiao Xiheng's eyes flashed with madness, "Do you know how cruel he is to me, I am his student, but he does not recommend me, let me be an unknown person in Ningzhou, with an official position and no future." Shouldn't I hate him? Well? ”
Fang Zheng closed his eyes, he was not afraid of death, but his only regret was that his grandfather had always raised such a white-eyed wolf, and he died unjustly, and he could not redress his grandfather.
He really didn't value it for his grandfather, only to hear Jiao Xiheng say again: "You still want to rehabilitate your grandfather, but unfortunately there is no chance, after tonight, everyone only knows that there is a person who has lost his heart and died because he was drunk and offended the gangster and was killed!" ”
"You!" Fang Zheng's eyes were red, he really hated, if he could let him die with him, he would be willing!
However, as Jiao Xiheng said, he has no chance, there is really no chance, and there is only a dead end in front of him. Obviously the enemy is in front of him, but he can't avenge his grandfather.
Jiao Xiheng watched Jiao Xiheng struggle, laughing, he likes to see him break free, what's the use, isn't it still a dead end? So he waved his hand and said, "Come on, deal with him!" ”
After speaking, a few people stepped forward with knives, Jiao Xiheng looked at everything coldly, and said: "It's a pity, I didn't redress your grandfather until I died, and no one knew the truth until I died!" Do it! ”
"Really?" A voice suddenly sounded, and the door of the dimly lit room was kicked open, and the dust was flying.
"What people!" Jiao Xiheng turned his head angrily, and when he saw the person coming, he looked shocked, "You, why are you, why are you here?" ”
