Reunion of the Dead (I) (II)

"You are standing on the teahouse inexplicably, how can people do it across the street." Master Guo was puzzled.

"I just told Biaozi that the woman was beautiful, and the man did it."

"Are you hiding something?"

"No, otherwise you can go to the teahouse and ask, I really just talked to Biaozi in the teahouse."

"Where's Biaozi?"

"Take someone to Juxian Building to block the couple of men and women."

"Go to Juxian Building?" Master Guo's wrinkles deepened, "That's the business of Ping An Inn." ”

"What happened to the business of the Ping An Inn?" Mrs. Guo shouted, "We have just been beaten like this, they should hand them over to us to deal with." ”

"Nonsense, you dare to let him make trouble on the territory of the Ping An Inn? Steward Liu, hurry up and ask someone to chase them back for me. ”

It's just that Steward Liu agreed, and before he went out, he saw that the nursing homes brought by Huang Hongbiao had all come back, and almost all of them were colored.

"What's going on?" Mrs. Guo asked in surprise.

The commander of the nursing home also injured his arm: "The guards of Juxian Building have moved. They said that Juxian Lou was their guest, and only they could judge right and wrong, and they wouldn't let us go in and take people. also said that the people of the Guo family are no exception. Young Master Huang argued twice, and was put down by them. ”

Mrs. Guo and Master Guo glanced at each other in surprise, but it was Mrs. Guo who spoke first: "How many thugs have been raised in this Juxian Building, more than 100 of you have been beaten like this." Master, this Juxian Building doesn't want to gather people to rebel. ”

"Madam, don't talk nonsense, Juxian Building is a business of Ping An Inn." Master Guo hurriedly stopped her.

Mrs. Guo ignored him and said sharply: "A thug who raises hundreds of people in an inn restaurant, isn't it a crowd to rebel?" ”

Master Guo yelled irritably: "Shut up, our family also has more than 200 nursing homes." ”

Mrs. Guo was shocked, only to know that she had said the wrong thing, and she was still unconvinced: "We have thousands of acres of land in Huayan Town, it is normal to collect rent from more nursing homes and watch the field, and it is a problem for them to raise so many people in a restaurant and inn." ”

"Ma'am," said the warden timidly, "there were not many of them, and three of them came out. ”

"What did you say?" Mrs. Guo screamed.

The head of the nursing home said tremblingly: "The little one said that only three guards came out of the Juxian Building to do it with us. ”

"You guys can't beat three people when you go to Bailai?" Mrs. Guo turned to Master Guo excitedly: "Master, these three people are so powerful, Juxian Lou Ping'an Inn is looking for people who gather strong martial arts, isn't this going to rebel?" ”

"Shut up!" Master Guo is usually elegant, and let Mrs. Guo score three points, but he didn't expect to develop ignorance and arrogance over the years: "What do you know as a woman in the house?!" The Ping An Inn is guarded by veterans who have retired from the army. ”

"Why did they gather so many veterans as escorts? Near the capital, wounding the prince's cousin, isn't this an ulterior motive? Mrs. Guo had no intention of stopping.

"You can't talk nonsense, the Ping An Inn is the business of the Tang Sect, and most of the people who house them are retired veterans and disabled soldiers, providing them with a way to live." Master Guo was really angry with Mrs. Guo, who was messing around.

Mrs. Guo didn't stop: "Master, no matter how ignorant I am, I also know that it is the business of the Tang family, and I know that those soldiers are the Tang family's army." Despite being retired, they are still soldiers, aren't they? The Tang family gathered so many soldiers, and it was near the capital, and they also shielded the people who hurt the prince's cousin, what do you say they do? Although the master is not an official, our old lady served in the Yushitai back then. We should be anxious about the affairs of the imperial court, right? As he spoke, he winked at Master Guo.

Master Guo was stunned for a moment, and then heard Mrs. Guo say: "The identities of these two men and women from outside the road are unknown, they injured the prince's cousin, but they were protected by the Tang Gate, in case the Tang Gate really has ulterior motives, it is our mistake if we do not report to the court and the queen mother in time." In the future, if something happens, we will have a troubled conscience. ”

Master Guo reacted for a while, it turned out that the old woman was also a little smart, he glanced at the master who followed behind him, and saw that the master nodded to him, obviously understanding the meaning of the husband and wife, Master Guo pretended to reprimand even more: "Madame can't say this, Tangmen has always been loyal to the court." And what they're doing today is just their rule. ”

"Can their rules shield the suspects? Then whoever kills and robs can run to their territory to ask for refuge, what is the difference between them and Jiangyang thieves. ”

"Don't worry, madam, the people of the Tang Sect will not shelter the bad guys."

"Then it was the good man who injured us today? This kind of guest who drinks tea in the tea house can be seriously injured, and what other hurtful things will not be done? ”

"Madam, don't say it anymore, we ordinary people in the Tang Sect can't afford to mess with us." Now he is an ordinary person again.

That night, the news spread, and some merchants passing through Huayan Town spread the news to the capital. When many people from large families in the capital went to buy vegetables in the morning, they heard that the Guo family in Huayan Town, that is, the relatives of the queen's mother's family and the cousin of the prince, was seriously injured for no reason, and it didn't matter if the other party knew that they were relatives of the emperor. Everyone was in an uproar, who was so bold, and the answer was the Jiangyang thief who was shielded by the Tang family.

Besides, the first day Xintian took Jing'an to Juxian Tower for dinner, and before he was halfway through eating, he was quarreled by the nursing home sent by the Guo family, and the two of them suddenly lost their appetite. When the guards of Juxian Building in front cleaned up the Guo family's courtyard, he took Jing'an and quietly left through the back door and returned to the post station. If it weren't for the letter sent by Baicaotang Jingwei the next day, he wouldn't have known that there were so many stories behind. Xintian snorted coldly and handed the letter to Xinye, Xinye looked at it and raised his eyebrows, this Guo family is interesting. The people of the Lan family hired someone to kidnap Lian'er a few days ago, and they plan to discredit the Ping An Inn, hehe, how much hatred this has for the Tang family.

"Let the third child mention it to the prince." Xintian said to Xinye half-discussedly.

Xinye flattened his mouth disapplausively, the eldest brother is sometimes too kind: "I think we should tell the third brother not to mention it to the prince, and don't mention it to the queen mother, let them make trouble, it is better to make a fuss in the capital, everyone knows it, and it is better for the prince to hear it from other people's mouths." ”

Xintian still hesitated: "If it makes a big fuss, I'm afraid that the Lan family won't be able to step down by then, the queen will have no face, and it will be difficult for the prince to do it." ”

"If it's hard to do, let them clean it up by themselves. Otherwise, the third brother has worked hard for them all these years, but the people of their Lan family still think that the third brother has taken advantage of them, and they will try their best to calculate us and find trouble for us. It's a big deal, so it's good for them to have a pain. ”

Xintian took a breath, sighed, and did not speak.

Xinye looked at him for a while, and couldn't help laughing: "This sister-in-law hasn't passed the door yet, so you will consider it for her." "The only reason that can make Xintian unbearable to toss the queen can only be Jing'an.

Xintian's face was suddenly full of discomfort: "Don't talk nonsense. After all, the princess is not very old, and if the Guo family's affairs break out, she will be a witness. She will be torn between them. ”

"(ˉ▽ ̄~) Cut~~," Xinye couldn't help but laugh: "It's the first time I know that my eldest brother is so pitiful. ”

Xintian couldn't help frowning: "Don't say this, it will damage the reputation of the princess." And I haven't figured it out yet, you know I..."

Xinye glanced at him and shook his head: "We are about to enter Beijing, she is the future third sister-in-law." If you really want her, you should order a sister-in-law as soon as possible. ”

"I..."

"As you just said, the princess is not very old, but I am afraid that there are some things that I don't know how to deal with. And she is a very sensible and tolerant person, and she will be the one who will suffer when the time comes. ”

Xintian closed his eyes, took a deep breath, and then sighed, "I know. Send a message to the third child, telling him not to meddle in his affairs and to be an errand boy. ”

Xinye smiled slightly, The eldest brother is the eldest brother, and he has always cherished the fate between brothers.

In the palace, His Majesty the Emperor, who has been ill for a long time, is in good spirits today and insists on coming out to breathe. Sitting on the imperial chariot, he came here, chose a pavilion, sat down, drank tea, ate snacks, and then watched a group of young palace concubines and palace maids flying kites on the empty lawn of Shanglin Garden. The matter of supervising the country has been given to the crown prince, and he, the emperor, already has a bit of the taste of the emperor, and he looks very leisurely. The newly favored Qin Meiren stood aside and brought him tea and water. Although she kept her head down most of the time, Qin Meiren could clearly see the greedy eyes of the emperor when he saw the young women in the garden, especially a few bewitching women. She frowned slightly, her eyes unable to hide a hint of disgust. But when the emperor came over, she immediately changed into a soft demeanor.

Qin Meiren is a palace maid who entered the palace in the draft, and she has been in the palace for more than four years, and she has never been pampered. This year, I have been doing some chores for second-class palace maids with the queen, and I see that it is about to reach the five-year period, so I can wait for the amnesty to leave the palace, but when I helped the queen mother send supper to the emperor, I reluctantly became a beauty around the emperor. She originally thought that the emperor was not in good health and did not succeed, she could escape the file, still be a palace maid, and marry someone out of the palace in the future. Who knew that the emperor was special to her for some reason, not only gave her the title, let the queen arrange an independent palace for her, but also kept her with her for the past few days.

He was very close to her in public, and he gave her a lot of rewards. even asked her brother who was on an errand in the Xifeng camp to be transferred to the Royal Forest Army, and was promoted from an ordinary lieutenant to a deputy general. How many concubines who have been in the palace for many years have never been taken care of like this. There are many women in the palace who are more outstanding than Qin Meiren, and I don't know why she has such special treatment.

For the sake of her family, Qin Meiren also had to pretend to be smiling every day. Like at this moment, she was asked to kneel on the ground, endure the nausea, and feed the ninety-five supreme person little by little with cheese in her mouth. A colorful kite with a broken string blown by the wind floated strangely towards the pavilion, and along with the kite came a burst of sweet fragrance that made people want to stop.
