Chapter 6 The Lord of the County
"Daddy won't let me go, but the fire is still underneath, so I'll go one last time. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info”
"It's definitely not okay to go now, and it won't work until night, there are night watchmen at night, don't be caught as a robber!" It was just right after dinner, before going to bed, when it was a little dark. It should be too late to rush back, and sooner it won't be discovered. ”
Zhou Xun obediently went back to his own yard, he also has his own small courtyard, a single-door courtyard, and his own small study, where he usually reads.
When he returned to his yard, he instructed his men to close the courtyard door.
"I'm going to read a book in a while, and I'll call me when it's time to eat."
A few subordinates naturally didn't dare to disturb the young master's reading, and even if they were doing things, they would try to stay away from this area.
The young master doesn't like to be disturbed when he reads, and this has become a consensus.
On the other side, Zhou Gui was watching peach blossoms in the garden.
The petal peach blossoms bloom on the branches, fragrant and fragrant, and there is a shallow channel under the tree, which leads to the clear water of the underground spring.
This week's courtyard is located in a wonderful location, Tibetan wind and water, the pattern is not big or small, and it is full of vitality, which can be regarded as a good place.
Zhou Gui was wearing a blue Confucian robe, and under the tree, he saw that the spring water was flowing from the small canal, meandering, and from time to time some pink petals were blown by the breeze and floated on the surface of the water, allowing the spring water to drift forward.
He didn't say a word, just watched, beside him, on the ground, there was a layer of petals, petals sprinkled by a dozen two-person high peach trees, and the yard was everywhere.
He was silent for a while, with a few petals on his shoulders and head, but he didn't realize it.
It was a long time before he sighed.
Ning had long noticed the strangeness of his husband, and knew that he had probably thought of something, so he stepped forward and draped a cloak on his husband.
"Still thinking about the Dragon Maiden? What, this is regretted? ”
Ning joked about her husband.
Zhou Gui shook his head.
"Where? I'm thinking about that rainy night ten years ago. ”
He seemed to be caught in a memory, and his face was still a little confused.
"I won't forget that night! It's raining so heavily, the water is three feet deep, and it's drowning to the feet and necks! It hasn't rained that much in decades! And thou shalt fall at the door of the house in a single garment, and your body and clothes will be covered with blood, and your face will be as white as flour, and you will have no human shape・・・・・・
"At that time, I was also frightened, fainted, and dragged you into my daughter's boudoir・・・・・・"
Ning gently snuggled into her husband's arms, thinking about a long memory.
"At that time, you were holding a broken kettle, I don't know what material it was, it was pitch black, you just refused to let go, and you couldn't pull it no matter how you pulled it."
"That's not a kettle, it's a magic weapon for Taoists to collect demons, I fought with my life, the only thing I brought out from the Dragon Palace, how can I let go?"
"Yes, you snatched a dragon girl back, but what's the use of that? What else do you say about feng shui balancing, which can ward off evil spirits and settle down in the house, and Fuyuan Guangjin, it has been ten years, but the concubine body has not been seen. ”
"It's been ten years before I know it・・・・・・"
Zhou Gui sighed, holding his wife's hand with both hands, and stared affectionately.
Ning dodged, feeling that his husband's gaze at the moment was really a bit amazing.
"What's wrong?"
"Fu'er, in the past, when you asked me about this, I avoided talking about it, and now it's time to tell you the inside story."
Ning asked curiously.
"Don't you refuse to say? If it's really inconvenient, then don't talk about it. ”
"No, it's just right now."
Zhou Gui paid attention to the movements, there was nothing around that could be covered, and the subordinates did not dare to disturb the intimacy of the main husband and wife, and they had already been sent away by the Ning family from afar.
As soon as he exerted his hand, Ning screamed in surprise and was held in his arms.
Zhou Gui whispered in his wife's ear.
"Back then, what I brought back from the Dragon Palace was the granddaughter of the Dragon King of Qinghe, the county lord of Yongjian."
When the last four words were spoken, the voice was already inaudible, but it was like thunder in Ning's ears.
"How dare you do such a thing? It's—"
The Ning clan was shocked and angry, such a thing was simply a blatant confrontation with the three parties of the Heavenly Court, the Imperial Court and the Shinto, dancing on the eggs, it was tantamount to taking chestnuts in the fire.
"No hurry, no hurry・・・・・・"
Zhou Gui just laughed at his wife pretending to be dancing and claws, and was happy to see jokes.
When she was tired, she explained.
"It's true that the Dragon Palace is guilty, but it's just the Qinghe Dragon King, and it doesn't necessarily have to be a descendant・・・・・・ otherwise the Dragon Clan won't agree."
"Afterwards, I secretly inquired about the Qinghe Dragon King, but I guessed a few points piecemeal. But that was all in the past, and now it has inherited the great treasure, the famous weapon has gradually stabilized, and the authority is deeply rooted in the hearts of the people. At this time, the turmoil has long passed, who will turn over the old accounts? It also depends on the meaning of the dragons! ”
"The Qinghe Dragon King, the body is a silver dragon, is the concubine of the Dragon King of the South China Sea, not loved, was sent out early, to Qinghe to serve as a priest, who knows the depths, violated the taboo, and ended up with an unknown life and death. As for what the taboo is, I have no way of knowing, and it certainly doesn't matter. ”
"You see, ten years ago, I took the risk of bringing back the Dragon King's granddaughter, although it was a big mistake at the beginning, but now it may not be. The law of the imperial court, there has never been this, and if the law is not prohibited, it will not be prosecuted, not to mention that the people present at the beginning are almost dead, who cares about the once down-and-out little Xiucai? Even if I have, now I am not the humble student who had a good reputation at the beginning・・・・・・ ha, I am a 'celebrity'! ”
Speaking of the word celebrity, it was difficult to calm down, and unconsciously used some force in his hands, Ning noticed this, and held her husband's hands.
"Of course, the will of the heavenly court is true, but it is just the will of the heavens to cut the position, where to control the life and death of a little dragon grandson, it seems terrible, but in fact, this is the least need to worry."
"As for the Shinto aspect of what you said, I don't think you need to care. The Qinghe River is 400 miles long, flows through several prefectures and counties, and is rich in aquatic products, which is a rare and good place, and this priesthood is naturally remembered. Who cares about a wandering dragon grandson? ”
Zhou Gui talked about it, and he was quite a bit of a gentleman and a scholar.
"Lord ・・・・・・ Yongjian County"
Zhou Gui's tone was a little sarcastic and sharp.
"When the Dragon King of Qinghe is here, she is the lord of the county, and when the Dragon King is not there, who will recognize her priesthood?"
"You must know that although Yongjian is not big, it is ten miles long, and there are more than a dozen villages along the coast, and there are tens of thousands of believers, and this foundation is not small. I'm afraid that the position of the water god of Yongjian has been occupied long ago over the years, where is she willing to be allowed to? ”
Zhou Gui said this, but he still didn't say his intentions, why did he take a big risk to bring back this dragon grandson.
"Now, you guessed?"
He leaned down and kissed his wife's smooth forehead.
Ning smiled and spoke.
"I think it's related to the living water in the garden, isn't it really a feng shui town, isn't there something wrong?"
"The agreement I made with people was more than just a spring!"
"What I want is one hundred and twenty years of good luck! I want three generations of ministers! Listed as a county watch! ”
"I took the risk, died nine lives, absconded for dozens of miles, just for this!"
"The true dragon bloodline, can rejuvenate wind and rain, can change feng shui, this dragon girl inherits the talent, naturally can change the underground waterway for my family, shape the dragon vein, and greatly increase the number of qi. This is above Feng Shui, the art of igniting the dragon's lair! ”
"Although this kind of feng shui pattern that changes the day after tomorrow is limited, the dragon vein foundation is weak, and the stamina is weak, but it can also shelter my family for one hundred and twenty years, three generations of bruises, and the great luck is invincible! The Zhou family will be able to soar into the sky with this, and after three generations, it will definitely be listed as a county prestige, with a deep foundation, and become a real family! ”
"This is the reason why I dare to fight for my life! Otherwise, who can fight so hard? ”
There was a thunderclap in the air, a thunderbolt flashed, and then, the dripping raindrops fell, drenching the two people in the garden.
