Chapter 21: Bone Play (21)
"Yun Ze must come with us. He's so talented, how can he be dragged down by that old thing. Sister Shu leaned on Lao Bai's arms, her face full of disdain.
"When are you going to tell him about his background?" Lao Bai pinched Sister Shu's nose, with a hint of pampering in her words. But it feels very greasy.
"Wait." Sister Shu pouted. "Wait for the He family to really fall. That's the best time to bring it up. At that time, the old thing betrayed his relatives and left, and Yun Ze definitely didn't want to live with that old thing anymore. ”
Lao Bai nodded in agreement, and the two of them got tired of it again.
Master He went back to his bedroom and fell directly on the bed. He was confused now, and during the day, he went to visit some of the families that he was familiar with before. But not only the members of the family, but also some of the servants in it were pointing and whispering to him. Although he was puzzled, because he was old and his ears were not good, no matter how careful he was, he couldn't hear what those people were saying.
It doesn't matter if he can't hear it clearly, but he can't think about it. He tossed and turned in bed, and he couldn't sleep. He thought about it and got up again.
Looking at the sky outside, he felt that it was still early, so he wanted to go out again to breathe. Master He hung up his clothes, pushed open the door and walked out.
"You guys, be careful, this is medicine for the old man's body, don't spill it." At this time, a woman's sharp voice attracted Master He's attention. At a glance, it was a maid under his daughter-in-law.
The maid was there to train people, mainly a few people with weak hands and feet, and they were trembling there with a medicine bowl. Master He walked over and asked:
"What's wrong?"
As soon as she heard this, the maid hurriedly turned around, and when she saw that it was Master He, she laughed and said, "It's these newcomers, and they can't hold things steadily, so I won't teach them again." ”
Master He nodded when he heard this, he looked at it, and opened the lid of the medicine jar casually.
"I just heard that this is medicine for me?"
"Yes, sir, Madame personally caught it and let us boil it for you. I heard that when there was an emperor in the past, the secret recipe in the palace. Madame said that she had also gone with great pains to find it. ”
The maid glanced at Master He with a slightly strange look, but quickly cleaned up and hid. As a maid who has been used as a maid since childhood, when you know the secret of your master, you must have the ability not to be seen by others, which is the basic cultivation of being a maid.
"She has a heart, knowing that I am busy outside these days, and she actually did this for me." Master He smiled instead, and the resentment against Sister Shu in his heart dissipated a lot.
"What about the second young master? Or is it locked up in his room and won't come out? Speaking of Sister Shu, Master He naturally thought of his precious son. He had always loved this child.
"Not really, the second master has turned around in the past few days. Occasionally, I will go out for a yo-yo turn, but I still don't want to go far. Looking at his spirit, he is a lot more decadent. ”
Master He sighed when he heard this: "This kid hasn't suffered much setbacks and grievances since he was a child, and now he can't stand it if he is suppressed like this by the commander." ”
"Alas, the He family, is it really going to be destroyed in the hands of my generation?"
The maid pursed her lips, she didn't dare to answer this words. Just wait there. It's just that the newcomers next to them can't hold it, and the weight of the medicine jar in their hands is not for fun. After standing for a long time, my hands began to shake uncontrollably. Unintentionally, some of them were scattered on the ground.
"Look at your appearance, hold me steady." Seeing this, the maid before scolded directly. But she is also kind-hearted, knowing that these people have been in place for a long time, she thought for a while, and then said to Master He: "Master, I won't bother you." Hurry up and bring these people to warm up the medicine for you. It's been out there for so long, it's getting cold. ”
Master He also knew what she wanted to say, so he agreed; Finish. By the way, he took two quick steps and gave way to them.
When the maid saw that the old man agreed, she said a few more words to the people on the side, and went straight away with them. When Master He saw them go to the study, he thought that he should go back to sleep for a while, and then drink medicine when he woke up, so he paced slowly back to the bedroom.
It's just that he walked fast and it was dark, so he didn't see the ants on the ground who drank the spilled potion and poured a piece of it.
For Master He, this night was just an ordinary night like usual. If you want to say that the only thing that is not ordinary, it is that troubles always block his heart.
But it was such an ordinary night, and a piece of news spread far and wide, and finally spread throughout the entire Lingzhou. For a long time afterward, this news became the talk of all Lingzhou people.
After a few days, Wen Shi hurriedly ran in from the outside of the south house without any image. There was a big smile on his face.
Li Shu sat at his table lazily drinking morning tea, and looked sleepy-eyed.
Wen Shi ran to Li Shu's side very blindly, and said mysteriously. "There's a very interesting thing happening in the He family, do you want to hear it?"
Li Shu glanced at him helplessly, stretched out his hand to push him away, and then put one hand on the table to support his chin: "Say, what's the matter." ”
"The wife of the He family is actually with the descendants of their family, hehe." Wen Shi's expression is very unscrupulous now, and the appearance of thief eyebrows and rat eyes makes Li Shu want to go next door and call Xiaoya up to take a good look at his appearance.
"Hey hey what? You're in charge of the army in the state, and you're in charge of these idlenesses as a whole. is like the eight women in the third street, and her mouth is not good. Besides, why are you so happy about the affairs of the He family. Li Shu thought it was a big deal, but he was impatient when he heard this. This news was passed on to Mrs. Hu, and Mrs. Hu came out again. The source of everything is her, and she has no interest in worrying about the affairs of the He family.
"I'm not joining in the fun." Wen Shi scratched the back of his head and said stupidly. "Besides, I'm not idle. I have the news from the north. Originally, I wanted to tell you the message from the north, but I heard about the He family on the way, so I chatted with you. ”
"Huh." Li Shu yawned. "Tell me, what's the news coming back from the north?"
As soon as he said the tenth, Wen Shi put away his nonchalant expression.
"The north side has already been in contact with several families in Lingzhou, a few have refused, and a few have unclear meanings, but the He family has made it clear that they have this intention."
"Isn't that something that has been known for a long time?" Li Shu propped his face and skimmed Wenshi.
"The important ones are in the back. After the He family expressed this intention, the north planned to send someone over and contact the He family. ”
"Oh?" Li Shu finally became interested, Wen Shi talked so much nonsense, but there was a sentence to the point.
Li Shu thought for a while and said, "Do you know who is coming and where to contact them?" ”
Wen Shi shook his head. "This is not clear, but it seems that the news from the big brother in the north shows that there is a big brother among the people who negotiate."
"Yo, Master Mo took this opportunity to come back?" Li Shu's eyes were dyed with a touch of color. However, she thought of He Yunmo's current situation and frowned. "What is he doing when he comes back, negotiate with the He family, when he comes back, when the two sides meet, won't his identity be exposed?"
"The commander and I naturally thought about this problem, but the eldest brother said that when he came back this time, he didn't think about going back to the north again."
"It seems that his deployment to the north is ready. The commander didn't say anything and let him come back. ”
"As for the location, there is no news yet. But I'll tell you when I know as soon as I know. Wen Shi smiled at Li Shu.
Li Shu nodded, knowing that he really couldn't interfere in the next march and battle.
Her mission in this world is almost complete. Ah Qi and He Yunze, who killed the original owner at the beginning, are now insulted and innocent, and they don't know where they went, and because of what happened in Wuzhou last time, they offended all the old-timers in this industry, and I'm afraid it's impossible to sing again.
And the other one will be swept away. After all, Master He wore such a bright forgiveness-colored "hat" on his head, Li Shu believed that Master He would not give up. Although Ah Qi's incident was an accident, the system still opened the net and counted it for her.
Next, it's time to put an end to the world.
"Okay, remember to keep an eye on it. This is a good opportunity to negotiate in the north. We're going to have to let those who have the guts to sneak in and not come back. In that way, the north will be full of grass and trees, and the soldiers will not dare to move. Then the deployment of the commander should come into play. Li Shula Wen Shi admonished. Wen Shi didn't dare to be sloppy in these battles, and quickly nodded his head again and again.
"Recently, we have stepped up the arming of the state, and those people don't know when they will arrive, so we should prepare for it early. But you don't have to be too tight, otherwise it won't be good to alarm the people over there. ”
Wen Shi received the order from Li Shu, and hurriedly left in a hurry. In the next few days, the people of Lingzhou faintly felt that the whole city was filled with a solemn atmosphere.
Besides, the He family has completely become the joke of Lingzhou. Especially Master He, he was originally running around about the affairs of the He family, and he didn't know what was going on these days. The spirit of the original strong beating was directly crushed because of this incident.
That day, Master He walked down the street and watched everyone pointing at him. It took a block to find out about their family's scandal. I heard that my face was blue for a while and purple for a while, my fists were clenched, and even the green tendons popped out. Without saying a word, he ran towards the house, and seemed to have his whole neck out.
As for what happened later, no one knows. It's just that people passing by He's house that day can always hear a few whimpering, and occasionally a shouting and scolding. Everyone thought that Master He was cleaning up the adulterer and adulteress, but only Li Shu, who saw everything with the system, knew that this was not the case.
"My God, Master He is too useless." Clumsy covered his little mouth with a disgusted face and looked at the screen on display. "Obviously, he was the injured party, but he was swept out of the house by the pair of dog men and women?! What a terrifying unfolding this is. ”
Li Shu was also distressed at this time, she didn't expect that this Master He would be so weak that he would let people occupy the magpie's nest for the dove, he really could do it.
Li Shu stared at Master He's dejected expression when he was kicked out of the door, and suddenly felt that something was wrong.
"No, Master He looks weird now."
