Chapter Seventy-Nine: Turning Hands into Pits
Zhuang Xuewen didn't know what was going on, he walked out of the house, stood by the fence and looked down at her, "Xiaorou, what's wrong?" ”
"Brother, why is this person in our house?" Zhuang Rou pointed to the man below, raised his head and asked Zhuang Xuewen, shouldn't such a nasty person leave last night?
Suddenly, she was stunned, Zhuang Xuewen was still wearing underwear at this time, and his chest was exposed, obviously looking like he had just woken up.
Zhuang Xuewen forgot to talk about this yesterday, and now explained: "He has nowhere to go, so he lives here for the time being, and will leave in a few days." ”
He ...... Sleeping in the same room with my brother last night? Zhuang Rou asked a little blankly, there are only two bedrooms in this courtyard, if it is a guest, my brother will not let the family sleep in the living room.
Sure enough, Zhuang Xuewen said: "Yes, I don't worry that he is here alone. ”
Zhuang Rou stared at him stunned, then looked down at Mo Zuo, who was smiling at him, and stammered, "I...... As long as my brother likes it, even if it's a man, I can call him sister-in-law! ”
"Brother, I'll go to the yamen first, there are still a lot of things to be busy, let me slow down first." She threw down these words, hurried downstairs and pulled her horse and hurried out the door, and closed the door before she could go out.
Mo Zuo was showing his muscles that were covered with scars but had been through a hundred battles, but he didn't want Zhuang Rou to run away like this. He was silent for a long time, pondered the words inside, and then looked at Zhuang Xuewen upstairs with a cold face, "Within three days, you must book a family affair!" Standing here at such an age and not marrying is simply ruining my reputation. ”
Zhuang Xuewen stood upstairs, looked at him and smiled, "Master Mo, you are doomed." ”
"You're cheating! Last night, you deliberately let me share a room with you, just to misunderstand Sister Ling. In order to achieve your goal, you don't even want your own reputation, it's just madness. Mo Zuo shouted angrily, he didn't think anything was wrong, but now he saw that it was his way.
"General Mo, if you could have thought so much at that time, you wouldn't have fallen into this field, and you would have gone back to sleep next door in the bright future." Zhuang Xuewen didn't bother to pay attention to him, turned around and went back to the house, he didn't sleep well last night, and sure enough, it was so uncomfortable for two men to sleep in the same bed, and he couldn't even stretch his hands and feet in order not to touch each other.
But I didn't expect to be thought of by Xiaorou like this, and it can be regarded as an unintentional willow, and the family of the general of the town and country will not be able to escape.
After he lay down for a while, he went downstairs slowly, and saw Mo Zuo sticking a fake beard in front of a small bronze mirror, which Zhuang Xuewen specially sent someone to bring over. I used it a few times when I passed the customs on the road, but I don't know where he wanted to run.
Zhuang Xuewen said lightly: "Master Mo, if Your Excellency is recognized, I'm afraid you will be beheaded all over the house, right?" Even if the emperor is willing to let you go, those officials won't just forget it, if you want to kill the whole family, just run out. ”
"But let me warn you, if you are recognized, then I will kill you in the capital, so that you don't have to recruit me."
Mo Zuo also looked at him coldly, and said like a sleepy beast: "Brother Xuewen is really worried, if someone recognizes me, then I will crush his throat first, so that no one will find out." ”
"Then you can do it yourself." Zhuang Xuewen glanced at him and threw the copper spoon to him, "Remember to lock the door." And he took no more of his hand, and led the horse out.
"It's best that you don't come back tonight, so as not to affect us." Mo Zuo played with the copper spoon in his hand, and remembered that his weak mother held his hand yesterday, and said vigorously that he just wanted to live to see him get married, and he could leave a man and a woman.
I don't know how to come back......
He suddenly squeezed the copper spoon in his hand, his mother's temperament was too weak, he was really not at ease, although his brother's concubine had some means, but it was still too soft.
Gritting his teeth, Mo Zuo carefully checked the beard on his face, and after thinking that no one could recognize him, he also led the horse out, bolted the door and went to the capital. He still remembers that he used to accompany his sister out with his family, and there were several shops where children liked to go very much, and there must be something suitable for Sister Zhuang.
And Zhuang Rou didn't even eat breakfast when she ran out, she just bought a cake casually on the side of the road, and gnawed all the way to the county office, and found that Li Zhongxin and them, including those girls, were all gone.
Looking at the smiling master, she asked blankly, "Master, the little county king has already come to try the case?" Where did the people go? ”
"Of course it's to protect it, you didn't say yesterday that you would finish this case well, and now it's arranged for you overnight, and it's all handed over to you." The master patted her on the shoulder and said, "Don't worry, Brother Ling has already sent someone to deliver the letter, just let Sister Zhuang go with confidence." ”
Zhuang Rou said that she would be responsible to the end, but now that everyone has been taken away, and it has been arranged overnight, what has this arranged for herself?
"Where am I going?" She was confused, and when she turned her head, she saw Yang Qing, the guard of the little county king who was particularly good at light skills, standing next to her with her hands folded and laughing.
"Come with me, I'll tell you on the way, it's none of your business here." Yang Qing said with a smile, dragged Zhuang Rou from the master, and pushed him into a carriage after leaving the county office. The two sat down, and the carriage began.
Yang Qing took a package, opened it and saw that there was a set of skirts with good materials, as well as some simple jewelry used by rich girls, not only that, but even shoes and socks were ready.
"Okay, you put it on, I will go there in a while to remember your identity, and now you are Lin Meihua, the concubine of Lin Shuhai, the master of Jingzhou. This is a family tree, you should remember it quickly, if you can't remember it and be checked by someone, you will play stupid. He took out a piece of paper full of words, put it on top of her clothes, and went out to let her change her clothes.
Zhuang Rou immediately grabbed him and asked, "Brother Yang, what am I doing here, where do I want to pretend to be a woman with such an ugly name?" ”
"Oh, I forgot to say it." Yang Qing sat back and said with a smile, "Jiaofang Division, it's not enough to rely on Li Zhongxin's confession, you have to find out how Liu Xiqing sold his official slaves." In addition to the eunuchs, whether the Ministry of Rites is involved in this matter must be investigated. And the best way is for someone to get in, just like you are the most suitable, and now you are Lin Meihua, the daughter of the criminal minister. ”
turned out to be this kind of thing, Zhuang Rou immediately remembered the inexplicable words of the little county king last night. It's just to go to the Workshop Division to find evidence, and you still need to use this method?
Just don't go back, avoid that Mo Zuo, who knows if he will see his home back in Beijing, so he touched it again, inexplicable guy.
But......
"On the fifteenth, someone asked me to go to the tea party, and I have promised to go, if the case can't be found, can you let me go out to play first?" Zhuang Rou asked speechlessly, Ding Lian'er had made an appointment with her, and she had promised to go over.
Yang Qing said indifferently: "There are still a few days, you can find out earlier, it's not a big deal anyway." Maybe as soon as you enter, you will be sold and the evidence will be readily available. ”
Zhuang Rou only felt that this person was too casual, and the little county king was also a messy guy, so why didn't she arrange someone to go over without saying a word in advance, so she asked: "The way you are looking is not reliable, I don't want to go in and get into the tiger's mouth and be eaten by them." ”
"Don't worry, we're going to go in the right way, but no matter how you check your father, it's the little master of the nine grades, just don't get confused." Yang Qing said it lightly, and when he saw that she didn't move, he went directly out of the carriage, "You can change it quickly, and you still have to remember your identity." ”
After he left, Zhuang Rou sat in the car, looked at the things in front of him, swept away the reluctance just now, and happily picked up the clothes. She wanted to go and see it before, but it was more difficult to enter than Fengyue Place, and it was said that it only received officials and relatives of the emperor.
Such an interesting place, she has long wanted to go!
There was no one in the carriage, so she quickly changed her clothes, put on her jewelry, a silver bracelet and a beaded flower, and there was not much left. The house was all copied, and she could still bring these things in, obviously for the people inside to rob, so as not to torture her.
Zhuang Rou was dressed neatly, even untied her hair and combed it again, and put the beaded flowers on. Then she took the piece of paper and looked at it, it was densely packed with words, and the three generations of ancestors were written on it, and there were countless concubines and relatives, and she couldn't remember who was who.
And for fear of cross-examination, even his mother's family wrote out, and his official position and what he was doing for a living were written in extra detail.
After a few glances, Zhuang Rou remembered several of Lin Meihua's relatives, and threw away the paper. This Lin Meihua is a person who made it up blindly, just a small master and a thin concubine, and no one should care.
"Sister Zhuang, have you changed it?" Yang Qing asked outside, he was in charge of sending people over, and seeing that he was about to enter the capital, he came to ask.
"yes, alright." Zhuang Rou folded her clothes and put them in the package, and answered casually.
Yang Qing came in from the outside, looked her up and down, and said with a smile: "Sister Zhuang changed her dress, she really looks like a little jasper, it's very good." ”
Zhuang Rou glanced at him, this is really not able to speak, what is it called to look like, obviously it has always been.
The hour was not early, Yang Qing carefully told her about this mission and all the things he explained, and the main order was to let her not expose her identity casually until her life was in danger.
"Well, that's fine." Zhuang Rou nodded, took off the iron rod that had been tied to her leg, and carefully placed it on the package. Yang Qing stared at the iron rod, and sure enough, as His Highness said, if he didn't remind her, the murder weapon was brought in.
"Okay, we're almost there."
Zhuang Xuewen, who came to Guozijian slowly, saw the people of the county king's mansion who had been waiting for a long time, and got a letter from him.
He opened the letter puzzled, looked at the contents inside, and couldn't help but wrinkle. And when the man saw that he had read the letter, he simply withdrew his hand and went back to pay the errand.
"You finally can't help it, and you want to open the opening on Xiao Rou? Hmph, it's still the same, it's always too simple. Zhuang Xuewen put the letter away, this has to be taken back and burned, but if the Jiaofang Division is concerned, he really has to go and see it.
