Chapter 50 The Poor Dagger Appears I
Jian Feiyang's suddenly serious expression and rapid movements frightened Luo Kaichao.
"Master Jian, but what happened?" Luo Kaichao asked unrelentingly.
Jian Feiyang didn't answer, his black eyes like a falcon swept Luo Kaichao's glance, and the coercion that came out of the fight of thousands of troops and horses immediately appeared, and Luo Kaichao's legs couldn't help but soften.
Luo Kaichao didn't dare to ask any more, and only had time to catch a glimpse from the back of the letter that there seemed to be a boxy cinnabar red mark on the front of the letter, so he hurriedly stuffed the letter into the envelope.
"Seal it, and never let anyone know that the letter has been opened. - If it is known, you can judge yourself. Jian Feiyang put his hands behind his back and looked at Luo Kaichao coldly.
Luo Kaichao's heart sank, knowing that something had happened, and he was a little unwilling. He was not born in the army, and he was a little unaccustomed to Jian Feiyang's command-like tone, and he lost his temper, and said a little unexpectedly: "Master Jian, we are people on the same boat." Jian Ye kept me in the dark, and wanted me to fight for my life, how could there be such a reason? β
Jian Feiyang's face remained unchanged, and he said lightly: "I won't tell you, it's for your good." If you know, you will not be the only one who will cut yourself, and your whole family and clan will be buried with you. "It's not like a joke at all, it's not like a bluff.
Luo Kaichao has done many things in his life to pull tiger skins and pull the flag. At this time, he was frightened by Jian Feiyang, and asked hesitantly: "...... Is it really that serious? β
Jian Feiyang paused, and still mentioned him: "The three major imperial merchants of the Longqing Dynasty were served by the family that day, you should know better than others, right?" β
Luo Kaichao closed his mouth, and his face, which had always been calm and waveless, was never unwilling. to silence, to resignation, and finally became a little desperate, and whispered: "...... Master Jian, I really didn't see anything. β
Jian Feiyang pointed to the envelope in Luo Kaichao's hand and said, "Forget what you just peeped at, and use all your skills to restore the red lacquer seal of this letter to its original state." "Finished. Jian Feiyang turned his back, looked at the sky outside the door, and said, "Listen, I'll only tell you one person." Now Xie Yun has to die, waiting for him to die. We withdrew immediately. β
Luo Kaichao's heart sank again. In less than a pillar of incense, his heart seemed to have fallen into a bottomless pit, a feeling that kept falling down, but could never touch the bottom.
Luo Kaichao gritted his teeth and asked Jian Feiyang: "Jian Ye saw more than me just now, is Jian Ye also planning to ......?" β
Jian Feiyang turned his head, glanced at Luo Kaichao, and said, "You don't have to worry about this. You just take care of yourself. "The brotherly atmosphere that had been in place for many days was gone. It's coming to an end. He is still an official, he is still a thief.
Luo Kaichao regretted and was sad, and his disappointment was beyond words.
Jian Feiyang walked over, patted Luo Kaichao's shoulder, and said with some difficulty: "Brother Luo, you have helped us a lot." As long as you can escape this time, I, Jian Feiyang, will definitely help you find a background. "It can be regarded as an explanation to Luo Kaichao.
Luo Kaichao calmed down. Knowing that this matter was probably beyond Jian Feiyang's expectations, he said, "Master Jian doesn't need to say it, I know everything." Holding up the letter, "I will do my best to repair this letter." β
After speaking, Luo Kaichao stopped talking nonsense. put the letter back in his sleeve pocket, then took out a letter and a box from the burden on the side, presented it to Jian Feiyang with both hands, and said, "The business is over." Now for private matters. ββThis is the letter and gift that Mrs. Zun brought to Jian Ye. β
Jian Feiyang saw the familiar handwriting on the cover, and his heart, which had sunk to the bottom just now, penetrated a ray of light. He stretched out his hand, carefully took the letter and the box, groped in his hand for a while, and asked Luo Kaichao: "How is it in my house?" β
Luo Kaichao smiled, knowing that Jian Feiyang was actually asking his wife.
After thinking about it, Luo Kaichao said to Jian Feiyang: "Everything is fine in the house, but Mrs. Zun seems to be sick." β
Jian Feiyang suddenly changed color, stepped forward and asked Luo Kaichao a little eagerly, "How do you know?" β
If it was just an ordinary illness, Luo Kaichao, an outsider, might not be able to see it. If he could see it, it probably wouldn't be an ordinary illness......
Luo Kaichao was silent for a long time, and said, "Mrs. Zun didn't say anything, but she was a little short of breath. β
Jian Feiyang was a little dazed, and repeated Luo Kaichao's words: "Short of breath? β
Luo Kaichao nodded, stood up and said, "Master Jian, take a look at the letter." Madame's letter must have been clearer than it had been seen by me, an outsider. β
Jian Feiyang took the letter and the box, sat back at the back of the desk, and said to Luo Kaichao: "You remember to repair the letter completely." β
Luo Kaichao arched his hand and left.
Jian Feiyang put the letter and the box on the table and looked at it for a long time, before reaching out, taking a paper cutter out, and opening the letter.
He Ningxin's letter was really kind, and she said a lot about other people in the house, but she didn't mention a word about herself.
Jian Feiyang opened the box again, and saw that inside was a silver-white musket, with a novel style, which he had never seen before. Looking inside, I saw that there were still twenty projectiles.
Jian Feiyang took the musket out of the box, broke the magazine, and saw that it was preloaded with six projectiles. - A musket that can hold six projectiles at a time, Jian Feiyang has never seen it.
Jian Feiyang picked up He Ningxin's letter again, read it carefully, and the part that had just been skipped at a glance became clear again.
It turned out that this musket was brought back by Song Liangyu from abroad to He Ningxin, no wonder it was more powerful than all the muskets he had seen before.
With this musket, Jian Feiyang felt that his hope of returning alive was much greater.
He Ningxin also mentioned in the letter a matter of the summons between the Holy Lord and the Imperial Concubine, although it was extremely brief, Jian Feiyang also saw something different.
Knowing that the Holy Lord was willing to send someone to pick him up, Jian Feiyang was of course happy. But thinking of the mark I saw in Liu Menghan's letter just now, my heart sank again.
The matter has come to this, the most important thing is to kill Xie Yun and destroy Liu Menghan's letter. - Maybe you don't have to do it yourself, Xie Yun is not a fool. After reading Liu Menghan's letter, the first thing he had to do was to destroy the letter, maybe even Luo Kaichao wouldn't survive.
thought that there were still a few days before Luo Kaichao and the big boss got married. Jian Feiyang calculated in his heart.
In the capital, Chu Qianyi and Chu Qianqian finally took the car of the Marquis of Ningyuan's Mansion and went to the Zhenguo Mansion to visit their friendly mother, He Ningxin, the Duchess of Zhenguo.
He Ningxin heard that the two children were coming, and hurriedly asked people to bring them in.
Chu Qianyi and Chu Qianqian came to the upper room of the Zhiyuan Pavilion in the inner courtyard of the Zhenguo Mansion familiarly, and as soon as they entered the hall, they saw He Ningxin coming towards them, although they were smiling, but their faces were sallow. It looks much more haggard than it looked a while ago.
He Ningxin deliberately wore an autumn-colored jacquard gown today, with a partial bun on her head, and a red gold silk chrysanthemum hairpin, which lined her face like gold paper. A sickly look.
"Friendship Mother!" Chu Qianqian saw He Ningxin's face, shouted loudly, and saluted decently.
Chu Qianyi also saluted.
He Ningxin helped them up with a smile and said, "Good, I'm really sensible." He took one by one and returned to the rosewood moire armchair on the side.
Chu Qianyi asked He Ningxin with some worry: "Is Yi's mother sick?" Do you want to find Dr. Song to come and check the pulse? β
He Ningxin felt weak in her heart, and said with a smile: "Little problem, it doesn't matter." Quickly changed the subject. Ask Chu Qianyi and Chu Qianqian how they are doing in the Marquis of Ningyuan's mansion.
Chu Qianyi and Chu Qianqian glanced at each other, looked at He Ningxin and said with a smile: "Does Yimu want to hear the truth, or is it a lie?" β
He Ningxin smiled: "How to tell the truth?" What about lies? β
Chu Qianyi said: "If it's a lie, we are doing well at home, and everyone is very good to us, especially Aunt Liu." Looking at He Ningxin sly, he smiled.
"What if it's true?" He Ningxin asked again with a smile.
Chu Qianqian hurriedly said: "Just say what my brother said just now, just say it again." β
He Ningxin was stunned for a moment and asked them, "How is your Aunt Fen doing?" β
If you say that you have a ghost in your heart for two children. Pei Shufen and Liu Menghan are probably tied for first place, in no particular order.
Chu Qianyi pursed his lips and said disdainfully: "She is busy with the baby, how can she have the kung fu to toss us again?" β
He Ningxin rolled her eyes and asked the two brothers and sisters: "Your Aunt Fen is pregnant, so she is naturally more delicate." β
Chu Qianqian pulled the placket of Lahe Ningxin's clothes, and said with a quiet smile: "Now Aunt Fen eats and vomits." I lost a lot of weight in a few days, and I heard the mothers-in-law in the house say in private that I think Aunt Fen's birth is mysterious. He Ningxin asked again: "Does it mean that she can't give birth?" β
He Ningxin shook her head and said to Chu Qianqian: "On the contrary, the more she vomits. The more secure the child is in the belly. "It seems that Pei Shufen's baby can probably still be born.
However, He Ningxin remembered her serial plan and smiled slightly. I'm not afraid that you will be born, but I am afraid that you will not be born. - When you are born, you will know what it means to be indisputable. In addition, Liu Menghan was watching and delaying beside him, so he didn't need to do it himself......
Chu Qianyi and Chu Qianqian looked at Yimu's face with that meaningful smile again, glanced at each other, and also pursed their lips and smiled.
While a few people were talking, the eldest girl Fufeng had already placed snacks and tea on the table next to her, and curtsied to He Ningxin and the two children: "Madam, the prince and the countryman, please use tea." β
He Ningxin took the two children to sit at the table, and saw a plate of freshly baked osmanthus cake on the table, which seemed to be mixed with lotus leaf juice, verdant and lovely. There is also a plate of red bean paste glutinous rice cake, steamed with honey, and it smells sweet. There was another dish of purple taro cake, cut into half-inch-thick slices, sprinkled with some desiccated coconut crumbs in the middle. - It's all made by the Dongyang chef sent by Mrs. Xu.
In addition to osmanthus cake, other dim sum is rare in the capital.
Chu Qianyi and Chu Qianqian cautiously tasted the red bean glutinous rice cake first, and were immediately attracted by the red bean paste with the strong fragrance of honey. Tasted purple taro cake again, Chu Qianqian liked this taste even more, so together with Chu Qianyi, they each sandwiched their favorite snacks and ate them.
He Ningxin sat on the side and looked at them with a smile, and said from time to time, "Eat slowly, don't choke." The plate of osmanthus cake is not cared for.
After eating the snacks, Chu Qianyi and Chu Qianqian took a sip of tea and gossiped with He Ningxin.
"Aunt Jiang, who is next to Aunt Liu, was not in the house a few days ago, and she just came back recently." Chu Qianyi said to He Ningxin, he felt a little strange. Aunt Jiang is a subordinate, and it is rare for a subordinate to leave the master for such a long time without permission, unless the master allows it.
He Ningxin's heart moved, and she asked about the approximate time when Aunt Jiang left the Ningyuan Marquis Mansion, and found that it was about the same as the day when Luo Kaichao came to Beijing. Thinking that Luo Kaichao had originally come to negotiate with Liu Menghan on behalf of Xie Yun, He Ningxin was relieved: Liu Menghan, like Xie Yun, would rather hide behind the scenes. I just don't know what Liu Menghan sent Aunt Jiang to say to Luo Kaichao.
"Bear with me for a moment. In a few more days, you will be completely liberated. He Ningxin said silently in her heart.
Chu Qianqian has also been in the palace for a while, and when he talked about Princess Hexi and the four princes, he smiled at He Ningxin and said, "Does Mother Yi know who the four princes are most afraid of recently?" β
He Ningxin came back to her senses and asked, "Isn't it the imperial concubine?" β
Chu Qianqian shook his head and said, "The imperial concubine can only send the second." Now the four princes are most afraid of Princess Hexi, for fear that Princess Hexi will ignore him, and take all kinds of delicious food to please Princess Hexi every day. While pursing her lips and smiling, "Princess Hexi complained that her waist was already thickened, and her favorite phoenix tail skirt couldn't be worn!" β
He Ningxin laughed and said, "The imperial concubine will definitely not be happy, and she will definitely make another phoenix tail skirt for Princess Hexi." β
Chu Qianqian nodded with a smile and said, "Yimu guessed right!" - The imperial concubine Niangniang really made a phoenix tail skirt for Princess Hexi herself. The fourth prince begged the imperial concubine to make the waist of the skirt thicker, so that he would not be scolded by Princess Hexi. Let Princess Hexi know, and she was so angry that she didn't talk to the fourth prince for several days......"
When He Ningxin and Chu Qianyi heard this, they couldn't help but be happy when they remembered the aggrieved expression on the white and fat little face of the fourth prince.
Several people laughed for a while, Chu Qianyi remembered the most important thing, and hurriedly pulled He Ningxin to the compartment inside, and said to He Ningxin: "Mother Yi, my father has been very close to the eldest prince for a while......"
He Ningxin smiled on her face and frowned: "The eldest prince is a person who keeps manners and is also smart. "It shouldn't be swayed by Chu Huajin, right?
Chu Qianyi was not familiar with the eldest prince, and he didn't know if the eldest prince would be affected, but he said, "I don't know about this." I just heard the third prince say, now the eldest prince is hiding from my father. As soon as he saw his figure, he either had a headache or a pain in his feet, and he couldn't get entangled, so he planned to ask the saint for permission to let him go out to patrol. - Said that he wanted to go to Southeast Province the most. β
"The eldest prince wants to go to the southeast road?" He Ningxin asked in surprise.
Chu Qianyi smiled thiefly and said, "I heard the third prince say that the eldest prince wants to go to the southeast road to see the sea the most......"
