Chapter 6: Hypocrisy and Truthfulness
readx;
The reason why Wen Yiyi stood in line with the three princes, in addition to Concubine Wen's family doing everything possible to climb up with him, still thought that the three princes were friendly to the subordinates and would definitely be a master in the future. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info is based on the three princes as soon as they speak, and the text will play for Tong Nian to speak.
It's just...The official who suggested that Tong Nian be severely punished said lightly: "Master Wen really values love and righteousness." A few years ago, he connected with the Wen family, and now he cares about one of the nephews of the Wen family...", which made Wen Yi break out in a cold sweat.
Is it ...?
When the eldest prince heard the news, he was so angry that he smashed the teacup in his hand.
The relationship between Wen Yi and the third prince only got the idea, and the eldest prince knew it. Not only do you know, but you are happy to see it. In his opinion, the third prince has always been his person, and naturally Nawen is also his person...
But this time, when he clearly stated that he ignored Tong Nian, the third child and Wen Yi also blatantly went to save people, so it was not as simple as slapping him in the face!
"Go and invite the prince to come!" The eldest prince was so angry and sad that he was so anxious that the house was full of chaos.
Han Maodian, who was like a jade man, didn't notice the anxiety of the eldest prince, and sat down directly behind the eldest prince's bookcase.
"Is Your Highness worried about the third master?" Han Maodian asked slowly, playing with the wolf pen on the eldest prince's bookcase.
"When has this been?" the eldest prince asked, "You know, that bastard of the third child...he used to pretend to do things for me, and he knew a lot about us..."
"His Royal Highness's words are wrong, he does the right and right things, and it doesn't matter who he helps!" Han Maodian said with an evil smile.
The eldest prince was stunned, and then said: "But after all...if he turns to help the sixth child?
Han Maodian shook his head: "After all, the third prince is old and so proud. What reason does the Sixth Prince's relationship have to make him surrender? Besides, do you still need to provoke the relationship between you and the Six Princes?"
The eldest prince opened his mouth slightly, stupid.
Oh, he and the sixth child have long been incompatible...even if there is no such thing, they can't wait to take each other's lives as soon as possible.
But the third bastard, actually used him as a gunman.
Absolutely unbearable!
"It's better to help Lao Liu, and then get that Wen Yi away for me!" The eldest prince looked ruthless and sat down beside Han Maodian angrily.
A trace of disdain flashed in Han Maodian's eyes, but he quickly suppressed it and said, "Since the third prince has such a heart, he will definitely be intolerable by the sixth prince." Your Highness doesn't need to rush to make a move!"
Han Maodian said a few words, and suppressed the anger and impatience of the eldest prince. But although the words are reasonable, the eldest prince is a little left-handed, and he will not give up if he does not teach the third child a lesson in person.
But for now, let's see how the sixth child does it. Anyway, there will be a chance to teach him a lesson in the future.
――――――――――――――
"Girl, this is an invitation from the eldest lady of the Guangenbo family. Please invite the girls in our house to come to the house. Liu Yu took the invitation and put it in front of Nie Xiaofan's bookcase.
Since the Nie family returned to Beijing after being served, people who are interested in making friends will hand over invitations.
This Guangenbo Mansion, Nie Xiaofan sounded vaguely familiar, but he didn't remember who it was for a while. After a cursory glance, he got busy.
"Girl, the second girl said, several girls are going to go together, if you don't go...okay?" Liu Yu said with a frown.
"Oh..." Nie Xiaofan didn't raise his head, and said, "Just say I'm sick!"
The reputation of her illness and weakness has been spread for many years, and outsiders don't know about her situation, so it's better to pass it off.
Liu Yu's brows tightened, the girl was obviously better, but she was still pretending to be sick. How bad is that for reputation?
But...
Hey...forget it, the girls are about to get married, and this little thing doesn't matter.
Liu Yu thought so, so she went to tell the second girl.
After listening to this, Nie Xiao'e pondered for a long time. Nie Xuan, who was on the side, said timidly: "If the third sister doesn't go, can we still go?"
"Of course you can. Nie Xiao'e said: "The third sister is just not feeling well. People sent invitations, and we can't help but go in good health. ”
After hearing this, Nie Xuan smiled happily. But seeing Nie Xiao'e's serious face, she lowered her head timidly.
When Nie Xuan was in the other courtyard two years ago, he was whimsical. Running into the bamboo forest every day, in order to have a chance encounter with the true son of heaven.
But since being taught a lesson by Nie Xiao'e.
The disease is much better.
Nie Xiaofan is really busy.
Although the idea of reopening Juxian Tower was vetoed by Xia Yue. But she still won't give up. First, it is indeed a cornucopia, and second, Lian helped her a lot, if Nie Xiaofan can help her do this, then it can be regarded as a repayment.
And doing business is addictive.
Nie Xiaofan didn't dare to say that she was addicted, but she did like the feeling of earning money in her pocket.
After that, occasionally, invitations to banquets would be sent. Nie Xiaofan said that he was sick and refused.
As a result, there were even more rumors that she was seriously ill. When several sisters of the Nie family attended the banquet, they would be inquired about Nie Xiaofan's condition. Although several sisters said that Nie Xiaofan's health had improved a lot, now that he is sick again, he just occasionally feels cold. But none of the other party showed a look of me understanding.
After all, sisters, maintaining their family's reputation is the most important thing. They all said they understood.
The sisters were at a loss.
When Nie Xiaofan was busy with the reopening of Juxian Building, Zhou Qiaoqiao was not idle.
Because of entering the capital, some things are not as convenient as in Changping, so Zhou Qiaoqiao quietly built two strongholds in the capital.
Of course, this did not escape Xia Yue's ears and eyes.
When Xia Yue heard the news, she stabbed and hissed the fold in her hand.
Zhou Qiaoqiao: What is this going to do?
"Say it again...how many people did she get into the capital?" Xia Yue asked again.
The spy was dressed in black and said, "Back to Your Highness...a dart game, except for a dozen or so locals who are covering up, the dart masters are all members of the Crow Gang." ”
Xia Yue's whole body trembled.
What the hell is she going to do?
"Keep staring...no, send more people, keep an eye on that dart game!"
As soon as the spies left, Xia Yue couldn't sit still. Standing up, he quickly took off his brocade clothes and fur, changed into an ordinary Ge cloth shirt, and prepared to rush to find Zhou Qiaoqiao.
When she went out, the cold wind blew, and Xia Yue was excited. I was stunned for a moment and went back.
What did he do with her?
He once promised a bold ambition that he would wash away the grievances of her family and let her marry him openly.
But now, has he done it?
No!
He didn't do anything, so what right did he have to go to her, what right did he have to stop her from doing things?
If she wants to kill Zhou Shaoyang, then let her kill her.
Xia Yue broke the jar and broke it, poured the wine all night, and threw the wine jar into the room.
After waiting for a few more days, there was no movement at all from the people in the dart game.
Xia Yue was even more confused, he actually knew that Zhou Shaoyang's old thief was not so easy to deal with, and Zhou Qiaoqiao would definitely be in danger.
Xia Yue was entangled for a long time, she didn't have the face to find Zhou Qiaoqiao, and she wanted to stop her, it seemed that she had to ask Nie Xiaofan to do this.
However, before Xia Yue brought the news to Nie Xiaofan, a big incident happened.
Nie Xiaofan's fleet...no, it should be said that his fleet...
It's back.
And it's coming back with a lot of money.
Xia Yue got the news two days earlier than Nie Xiaofan, and he was overjoyed.
When the fleet came back, Nie Xiaofan must have a lot of things to do. Zhou Qiaoqiao's matter, it's better to wait for Nie Xiaofan to finish telling her...
Xia Yue made this decision again.
When Nie Xiaofan received the news that the fleet was back, he was not as happy as Xia Yue.
She changed into men's clothes and received Jing Yongnian, who had returned from the ocean, in Jude Building in Changping.
"On the way back, I met a bandit...the five brothers of the Chang family, two were injured, and one was lost..."Jing Yongnian's skin is rougher than before, and his style is more like a robber, but at this time, his messy hair is no longer as confident as before.
He was sad.
He led the team, people's hearts have always gathered, everyone made a fortune together, like brothers...
"Lost one?" Nie Xiaofan couldn't hide his shock and sadness in his eyes.
If you lose one, is it dead?
If you're dead, you won't be able to come back...
Nie Xiaofan trembled her hands and picked up the wine glass, her imagination was extremely rich, and with just one sentence, she could think of the sadness of that person...that person when he lost it.
The hand in the wine glass was shaken out and spilled on her hand, Nie Xiaofan was unaware, and poured the liquor into his throat indifferently, only to feel that his internal organs were burning in a panic.
"Did I kill someone?" asked Nie Xiaofan, holding his wine glass tightly.
Jing Yongnian glanced up at her and said, "Actually, there is more than one lost, but you only know the five brothers of the Chang family." So..."
"Enough!" Nie Xiaofan shouted.
Jing Yongnian suddenly laughed.
"Why do you mean this, do you mean that you will not go to sea in the future?"
Nie Xiaofan was speechless.
She's ambitious, but it's not supposed to be filled with her life, right?
"It's not your fault. Jing Yongnian said suddenly.
"When I was a robber in the mountains, I met wild beasts hunting. It's a tiger that wants to drag a calf away..."
And then? Nie Xiaofan looked at him strangely.
The calf's mother must have refused, and desperately pushed the tiger to death. You say, at this point do you want the calf to be dragged away, or the tiger to be carried away?"
"Of course it is..."Of course I hope the calf is okay...Nie Xiaofan blurted out, but he felt that it was not so simple. "Is this a difficult question to tell?"
"Yes! Jing Yongnian said seriously: "And people are not qualified to distinguish between right and wrong." Do you know, that tiger, she has a litter of tiger cubs to feed, and if she hadn't dragged the calves away that time, one of her tiger cubs would have starved to death...Do you still want the tiger to lose? Wouldn't that hurt the tiger cubs?
"And why do I say that man is not qualified to distinguish between right and wrong, because the tiger is a carnifer by nature, and if you don't let it drag the calf, she may drag the lamb away. The cow is innocent, so what is the crime of the lamb?"
Nie Xiaofan listened and nodded.
She understands the truth, in modern times, human beings have more knowledge of the world, and they will always have a strong sense of superiority over everything around them. In the final analysis, people are just one link in the food chain.
But what does this have to do with the fleet?
Jing Yongnian glanced at Nie Xiaofan with deep contempt: "How similar are those pirates, the Chang family brothers, and us, to this story?"
Nie Xiaofan is like five thunderbolts. The thought shook her deeply.
Is that so?
It turned out that she was unconscious, and she was contaminated with some sense of superiority that she was born with...
"So, Brother Chang..."
"It's the fourth one who walks..."
The fourth...the fourth child who has the least sense of existence.
"Chang Laosi...he..."The corners of Nie Xiaofan's mouth opened slightly, but he couldn't say that kind of thing.
Jing Yongnian helped her: "He doesn't need your sympathy and self-blame, in other words. You're not qualified!"
Nie Xiaofan's face immediately turned red.
Jing Yongnian stood up, put a box beside Nie Xiaofan, and left a few words: "There are risks in going to sea, everyone understands." Now that you have taken it, you should do it well. Don't let the Six Princes down. ”
Nie Xiaofan blushed, not knowing whether to be ashamed or angry.
Jing Yongnian walked to the door, turned back, and said, "The Chang brothers will continue to do this, they have fallen in love with the days of drifting on the sea." And I paid them a thousand taels of silver. ”
Nie Xiaofan nodded, although no matter how much silver there is, it can't be exchanged for a living person, but in other words, since people can't come back, why not take more silver?
"Have you done it?"
Jing Yongnian didn't answer, turned around and went out, and when he got to the door, where Nie Xiaofan couldn't see, he said to himself: "I'm being amorous again, my old well is not working hard for you." It's just a listed owner. Jing Yongnian looked sad.
In the private room of Jude Building, Nie Xiaofan opened the box left by Jing Yongnian. There was a pile of silver bills in denominations of 10,000 taels and an account book.
That's the reward for more than two years of hard work...
According to the routine, Nie Xiaofan should sigh with emotion: There is their blood flowing on it.
But she didn't have the face to say that. Because she didn't have the courage, she added a sentence after that sentence: "I don't need to!"
Nie Xiaofan felt so cowardly.
When she walked to the hall of Jude Building with the box in her arms, she suddenly remembered that one day two years ago, the five brothers of the Chang family were changed to four brothers, and in the hall of Jude Building, they did something that made Jingshi become a hero.
Now it's really four...and if it weren't for that, they would...
Nie Xiaofan finally hugged the silver ticket and sighed a few words.
You coward!
Nie Xiaofan scolded himself in his heart!
Somehow, she also despised herself like she did now. I despise it, and I don't have the courage to change it, because she has really fallen into it.
On the way back to the city, Nie Xiaofan rode a horse fast, which allowed her to empty herself. She was confused and needed to clear her mind before she set off.
But Xia Yue didn't give her so much time.
As soon as Nie Xiaofan returned home, a letter urging the silver was delivered to his home.
