It is said that in order to appease the Dou family, the emperor promised Dou Zhun's granddaughter to the current King of Jingjiang. Since that year, the Dou family has no children entering the barracks, and now the whole government is from Confucius and Mencius, although there is also a tradition of practicing martial arts, but it is only to strengthen the body. ”

When Xie Wan heard this, he couldn't help but think about it.

It happened seven years ago, and seven years ago she hadn't been reborn and was still a real child, so she didn't know there was such a thing. And Dou Zhun's granddaughter married the King of Jingjiang, and the younger sister of the King of Jingjiang was married to Zheng Zhong, the younger brother of Concubine Zheng, and it turned out that the Zheng family was still related to the Zhengqing Mansion of Dali Temple.

In this way, Zhao Zhen wrote that time that Princess Lao Jingjiang had a birthday, and Zeng Mi was also invited, so this Zeng Mi also entered the circle of Concubine Zheng. Could it be that Yin Yao, who is plotting against the country, plans to catch the little ghost of Hades, and even a small deputy commander of Nancheng has to be wooed?

This is too petty!

She was a little unimpressed. However, now that Yin Yao has Xie Rong, I'm afraid that he won't be able to carry people into his arms so indiscriminately?

She said: "I don't know how the death of Brigadier General Dou will affect the Cao Gang in the end?" ”

Master Ning straightened out his thoughts, took another sip of tea to moisten his throat, and then said slowly: "The third year after General Dou's death, that is, five years ago, the Cao Gang also ushered in their new chief helmsman during the Mid-Autumn Festival.

At this time, it coincided with the time when the people who made a living on the water spontaneously paid tribute to General Dou, and Jingshi, as the largest military center, had many veterans who returned from serving in the East China Sea, and they chose to pay their respects at Jishuitan on the outskirts of Beijing. So on the night of the Mid-Autumn Festival that year. The Cao Gang held a ceremony for the new appointment of the chief helmsman at the chief helm of Jishuitan, and on the three sides of the water around the island, dense Kong Ming lanterns were lit.

Their new helmsman didn't know if it was taboo, so he immediately ordered to drive it away, but there was a dispute between the two sides, and finally they invited the protector to come forward before it ended. The chief helmsman later blamed the helmsman of Jishuitan for not handling the matter well, so he set the first fire of the new official in office, and changed the rules of the Cao Gang.

Although the chief helmsman did not make his words clear, everyone figured out from the gang rules he had changed, and most likely he saw that the thirteen helmsmen were wealthy. When you have money, you gradually become unregulated. So they used this rule to coerce. Over the years, I heard that it has also had some results, and they are a lot obedient in front of the chief helmsman. ”

When Xie Wan heard this, he finally suddenly realized. So to speak. In the end, it was the new helmsman's cautious eyes. But she doesn't comment on what others are doing. Everyone has their own way of controlling it, and you can't deny the actions of others just because you don't take them.

She thought for a moment, and then said, "Is that because of this?" So later, the emperor handed over the matter of Cao Yun to the Lord Protector? ”

"Not bad." Old Man Ning nodded, "First, the Lord Protector is in charge of leading a thousand troops, and he can suppress the Cao Gang no matter what, and secondly, in the eyes of the veterans and the people, the status of the Huo family is even more noble, and it is very appropriate to hand over this matter to him." So in the following years, there have been no such disputes in the jurisdiction of the Cao Gang. ”

There was no dispute with the people, but internal disputes began. There are still things that oppress each other within the Cao Gang, let alone externally? In this way, it is not uncommon for the Ning family's merchant ship to be intercepted.

"Uncle will transport tea next time, in the end, it is better to take the road insurance."

She picked up the teapot and poured tea for Master Ning.

Master Ning sighed: "If you have to ask a dart bureau to escort the car by land, the cost is high, and it is not very safe. If you encounter a bandit or something, it is also possible that the bamboo basket will be empty. ”

Xie Wan thought about it, so he sighed casually: "The imperial court should also spend some energy on rectifying this." ”

After chatting a few more words here, Wu Xing walked in outside the door: "Girl, the banquet has been placed, and the second master asked the little one to invite Master Ning to take a seat." ”

When Xie Wan heard this, he hurriedly stood up, sent Master Ning to the door, and watched him follow Wu Xing to the side hall, and as soon as his footsteps turned, he also took the big bag of letters into Fenglu Hall.

She had eaten here and read the letter, so she asked people to look at the front and disperse, and asked people to invite Cheng Yuan over.

"Does Mr. Cheng know about Dou Zhun?"

Cheng Yuan was slightly stunned, "Dou Zhun, the general who was murdered and died in the East China Sea garrison seven years ago? How did the girl ask about this? ”

Xie Wan then told him what the old man Fang Caining said. "Is it true that the murderer behind this case has not been found?"

Cheng Yuan shook his head and sighed: "General Dou is also a fierce general of our dynasty, and he was born and died with the Protector of the Kingdom, and he can be called the right-hand man of the Protector of the Kingdom. After the bad news was transmitted back to Beijing, it was reported that the Duke of Huguo changed into plain clothes and went to Dou Mansion to mourn on the spot, which made people feel sad! ”

Xie Wan said: "You mean, the relationship between the Protector and General Dou is very close? She thought it was just an ordinary superior-subordinate relationship.

"Of course!" Cheng Yuan said solemnly, "Speaking of General Dou and Huguo Gong, Dou Mansion was originally near Zhu Yifang, where the Huguo Mansion is located, Zhu Yifang because they live in the powerful people, the mansion covers an area of very large, so the total number of people only live in two or three families, it is said that when Huguo Gong was still a prince, he often led General Dou, who was a few years younger than him, to read and play, and he was a close friend when he was young.

General Dou was injured and could not handle official business, so the Protector transferred his second son to personally replace him with the pen for a few months, and if it wasn't for the emperor to marry Miss Dou to King Jingjiang as a princess, the Protector might have married her back to the house as a daughter-in-law.

"It can be said that the friendship between these two can really be called a love better than Jin Jian."

Cheng Yuan's eyebrows showed deep admiration.

Xie Wan couldn't help but pause because of the four words "Jin Jian". There are few people in the world who use these four words to describe brotherhood, and what kind of relationship can it be so good that it must be so deep?

She paused for a moment and said, "By the way, you write a letter to Luo Ju." Let him pay attention to Zeng Mi's recent new moves, Zhao Zhen's second daughter-in-law recently added a fat grandson to him, but he is afraid that he will not have time to go out for a walk. I've also prepared a few extra pots here, and you'll wrap them up with you when you go back. ”

She was already laughing at the end of the day. After Zhao Zhen's family settled in Beijing, his second son Zhao Lian quickly became a parent, and now the girl also said that she was the son of a director of the military department. Zhao Zhen wrote back to inform Xie Rong that he had returned to the East Palace to give Yin Yao's feast, to congratulate Xie Lang, and to report the good news.

Cheng Yuan also smiled when he heard this: "It turns out that a fat grandson has been added!" This is a good congratulatory message! ”

Xie Wan thought for a while, and suddenly smiled again: "Mr. Cheng has rarely returned to Shaoxing in the past two years. Is your family okay? ”

Cheng Yuan's wife died early. He has never continued the string, and has only one daughter under his knees, and he was married before he came, and I heard that her husband and in-laws treated her very well. And less than a year after getting married, she gave birth to twin sons. It's cute. As a result, her husband's family cherished her very much, and Cheng Yuan also lived in his daughter's house when he went back, and his son-in-law personally served tea and poured water. Very filial.

"She doesn't need me to worry!" Cheng Yuan shook his head and said with a smile, his eyes immediately showed endless love, "She lives an ordinary and worry-free life in Shaoxing, opening a shop every day, selling wine, and is very comfortable. ”

Speaking of children, no matter how good the scholars and martial artists, regardless of the high-ranking officials and ordinary people, without exception have become the one who is helpless but indulges in it.

Xie Wan looked at Cheng Yuan in happiness, and suddenly felt warm.

Xie Lang decided to leave for Nanwazhuang tomorrow.

Xie Wan called Huo Yao after dinner and explained that he and the two people Yu Sanhu had drawn from the courtyard to follow him.

Huo Yao obediently obeyed. The next morning, he not only arrived at the front yard on time at the time Xie Wan explained, but also prepared a change of clothes.

However, compared to coming to the house, his dress is more restrained, very ordinary coarse gray clothes, and then tie his hair into an ordinary appearance, he has not shaved his beard in the past two days, people rely on clothes, so pounding down, it is not so good-looking, and Xie Lang, who is well-dressed, will go out with Xie Lang, who is well-dressed, and people will throw him three or five miles.

In this way, even the little maid in the house looked at him with a much more normal gaze.

On the way to Nanwazhuang, Xie Lang and Cheng Yuan took a carriage, while Huo Luo and Zhou Nanhu Hu Feng rode horses.

Zhou Nan glanced at Huo Jue twice, his eyes flashed with a hint of urgency, and said, "Brother Huo, look at you Si Wenwen, you don't look like a person who practices mixed rice and eats?" Let me tell you, our second master is now a son, if you don't want to do this job, just say it as soon as possible, buy a pot of wine and invite the brothers to drink, let's teach you both hands!

"Otherwise, our class of three will accompany the second master, if something goes wrong when we turn back, our girl will have to let you go around without eating!"

Huo Yao smiled and didn't speak.

Hu Feng burst out laughing and said, "Old Zhou, you are too direct!" You should say, dare to ask Brother Huo, have you ever fought? ”

Who dares to be a human guard who hasn't fought? Hu Feng looked like he was relieving Huo Yao, but in fact he was even worse than Zhou Nan. This means that he relied on that face to get to this position.

For these two, Huo Yao still only smiled and ignored them.

Zhou Hu and the others saw that he didn't accept the invitation, so they also felt bored, although they relied on the old qualification of being an errand in Xie Mansion for several years, but because he was brought back by Xie Wan personally, he didn't dare to provoke and provoke, otherwise it would be difficult to turn his face and go back, so he turned his head and talked about the recent news in the city.

After a while, when they arrived at the realm, Zhuangtou Yang Wu and his wife Shuniang hurriedly stepped forward with their two sons to greet them. Xie Lang explained: "We are going to live for half a month this time, you go and clean up a few rooms first, and then go back and bring a few farmers who are good at farming in the village." ”

Yang Wu bowed and said, "The room has been cleaned up, and the master will take someone in to live." When the master turned around and eaten, the little one brought the farmer over. ”

Xie Lang said: "You don't have to wait until you have dinner, if you are free now, it is best to find me immediately." ”

Yang Wu hurriedly went. (To be continued.) )
