Wang Changshi's letter, Mrs. Chu read it at first, it was quite pleasing to the eye, but it was not the same thing when you read it.

Mrs. Chu's white eyebrows wrinkled tighter and tighter - praising his students would praise his students, why did he praise Qiao Yang if he praised it?

This is the student he taught, what does it have to do with that broken fisherman!

The more Mrs. Chu looked at it, the more annoyed she became, the sour taste in her heart turned over the river and the sea, hastily glanced at three lines, and slightly to the end of the letter, he was finally mentioned, oh, but it was mentioned so [If there is a chance, Mrs. Lao asked Qiao on behalf of the student how good the wine is]!

"Annoying!"

Mrs. Chu expressed his mood at the moment in the most simple words.

He tried to burn the annoying letter, but when he held it up above the lamp, he took it back—it would not be good if it was not burned properly, if the room was set on fire.

Now the old lady, who is very sorry for her life, picked up the scissors that cut the kowtow picture of the villain, and cut the letter paper to shreds in dissatisfaction.

The old servant who had just turned back saw the pile of shredded paper in front of his old man, and asked in surprise: "...... Do you want to frame it? ”

The old lady snorted: "What mounting!" Take it and burn it! ”

In the face of such a big emotional fluctuation, the old servant was accustomed to it, and when he stepped forward to put away the shredded paper, he heard his old lady smile "hey" without warning.

Mrs. Chu leaned back in the chair, her anger suddenly disappeared by seven points, and she said magnanimously: "Those who don't know are not wrong......

Although he is considered to be a student of others, his student is the best, which is obvious to all.

In the summer night, the window was ajar, and the window sent a trace of coolness, Taifu turned his head to look out of the window lattice, and saw that the lantern hanging under the corner of the porch was dim, and immediately said: "Why is the lantern not lit?" Hurry up and get people to click on ......."

The old servant hurriedly led someone to light the lamp.

It was a rabbit lantern, which was incompatible with this elegant and simple courtyard, but the old man cherished it very much, and since it was hung on the night of the Shangyuan Festival, it has never been taken off.

It's just that the old man has been staying in the Ministry of Rites recently, and the rabbit lamp and the servants who lit the lamp have also been passive and slacking off.

The old lady looked through the window and saw that the lamp was lit again, emitting a gentle candlelight, and then she felt stable and satisfied.

He is to keep this lamp until his students return, and when there is a lamp, there is hope, just as it was before.

The cyan rabbit lamp swayed gently with the wind, and the lights also swayed, such as a naughty child holding a green lotus leaf in his hand, slapping and washing in the water, swinging and swinging, and then the water surface will swing out of layers of waves, and the night is also like the water surface, which is slowly swept away by the light of this little rabbit lamp, until the first ray of sky is ushered in.

The secret letter sent by the envoy of the Duke of Pan in Jiangdu soon arrived in Beijing and was presented to the Son of Heaven.

The next night, Yao Yi returned from Dali Temple, changed into his official uniform, and went to his mother's place to ask for peace.

In the courtyard of the old lady of the Yao family, it is very lively at the moment, and the two-room couple with Yao Xia's brothers and sisters are all talking with the old lady.

The old lady listened to her granddaughter's request, smiled and sighed and shook her head: "Axia, you might as well ask your mother if you agree......

Since Chang Suining took over the post of Jiangdu Assassin Shi, Yao Xia couldn't stay at home, and he wanted to go to Yangzhou to find his cousin every once in a while.

Today, when Yao Ran sent back a letter from home, this mood was even more irrepressible, and he brought up the matter again at this moment.

Yao Yifu, who walked in with him, saluted, and Yao Xia walked up to his mother Zeng and shook his mother's hand: "Mother, just let me go......

Zeng patted his daughter's hand: "Axia, you have to know that life in Jiangdu is not so easy now......"

"Auntie, my daughter is not afraid of hardship!"

Zeng sighed and said: "A-Niang means that the life in Jiangdu is not easy now, and where is it convenient for Chang Assassin Shi to raise an idler like you who can only eat." ”

Yao Xia's face was bitter, and he felt that he couldn't refute it.

After all, she doesn't know much, she eats a lot.

"Daddy and Auntie......" Yao Gui couldn't help but say when he heard this: "Why don't you go to Yangzhou to study in your son?" ”

He had heard that Chang Assassin Shi ordered 100 people to copy the family's collection in Jiangdu...... And yesterday, the saint had already approved the move of Chang Assassin!

If he can go to Jiangdu to study, he will have the opportunity to come into contact with those books, not only can he meet Chang Tingshi and Ran Mei, but he may also be able to learn something.

Old Madam Yao's joking words broke the whimsy of the young man: "Ah Gui's idea is good, it's better to bring your uncle's head with you by the way, it will be more convenient, lest someone come and cut it off in the future......"

"It's all going to be noisy, and no one is allowed to go." The second master of the Yao family rarely took the right color and said: "This Chang Thorn Shi acts flamboyantly, and he must have attracted the suspicion of the saint. And our Yao family is different from other families, your uncle is an official in the court, and there are some rumors between this Chang Assassin History...... If you are sent all the way to Jiangdu again, once people know about it, it will really be unclear. ”

Yao Gui and Yao Xia glanced at each other when they heard this, vaguely knowing the stakes, and they didn't speak for a while.

Yao Yi sat down and sighed: "With those two outside, I'm already enough for a headache, so you two can stay at home honestly." ”

"Those two"?

Which two?

Everyone in the Yao family reacted, and almost the next moment they all burst into unison.

Yao Xia looked at his uncle, and the co-uncle not only counted his cousin, but also his sister Chang...... Uncle's heart of being a daddy in the outer room is still not dead.

The second master of the Yao family was very worried about this, but he just wanted to make a break with the scary Chang Thorn Shi, but the eldest brother was good, and he immediately pulled it back.

Big brother's addiction to being a wild daddy, why is it so big?

Facing the complicated gaze of the upper family, Yao Yi realized that he was speechless, and said as straight as he could: "Anyway, you are not allowed to go again." ”

The remaining two lambs, no matter what, had to watch closely, and they were in the pen, and they were not allowed to go anywhere.

Mrs. Yao took out Yao Ran's letter and asked Mama to hand it over to Yao Yi.

Yao Yi read it, looked at the powerful handwriting on it, and couldn't help but sigh: "Ran Er has changed a lot......"

This change is visible from the inside out, both in the wording and handwriting of the letter.

Yao Yi also often received separate letters from his daughter, and he seemed to see from those letters that a bird that was originally confined in a cage and was weak and injured had gradually lost its injured feathers, extended its bones, and grew new flesh and blood, and its wings gradually became plump.

In recent letters, Yao Yi can feel that this bird has the gaze and determination to look farther away, it wants to fly higher, and even has an ambition.

Yao Yi was shocked by this, but also had mixed relief, but more of the anxiety of being a parent.

At the same time, he clearly knew that his daughter, the enlightener of his ambition, must be the other leading lamb that worried him the most.

The lamb never wrote to him, but only "talked" with him once in Ran'er's letter, and asked Ran'er to greet him on his behalf.

Yao Yi has been paying close attention to Jiangdu's movements, and has seen every move of Chang Suining in Jiangdu.

She boldly asked for the position of Jiangdu Assassin History, and now she has copied the family's collection of books...... Yes, the saints have agreed, even the permission of the overwhelming consensus, but the permission does not mean recognition, but it is only forced by the current situation.

These suspicions and dissatisfaction will accumulate in places that cannot be seen, and when the crisis that caused this "must" disappears, she will have a crisis......

Everything she did in Jiangdu gradually pointed to the most taboo word of a local official - centralization.

She first selected and recruited talents by herself, so as to avoid the separation of powers and constraints of the imperial court; She also tried to get wealthy businessmen to donate silver and noble families to donate books, which not only stabilized the situation in Jiangdu, but also tied up with these "landlords" in Jiangdu, so that the other party had to be used by her.

Now she has left Jiangdu's collection of books in this way, and those books belong to Jiangdu, but in the past, they were scattered in the families of the major clans, but now, they are all collected in her hands......

When it comes to the number of books in the collection, she is naturally far inferior to the library of the imperial court, especially after the imperial court confiscated the Central Plains book collection-

However, the imperial court will have strict restrictions on the use of the collection, and it is an overly loud ideal slogan to distribute them to the people of the world, and it will take a long time to realize it.

But the collection of books in her hand is different, it is the most intuitive and promising library that can be touched by readers all over the world.

And the only owner of this library pavilion is called Chang Suining.

These collections are sacred in the eyes of countless literati, and she will be the only allocator.

Military power, finances, and book collections, and now they are all in her hands, and in a short period of time, she is already the absolute lord of Jiangdu.

Her movements are quick and always able to hit the vital point repeatedly, not to mention those officials who can only crusade against her with words in the court, even he who has expected it in his heart, and he can't react for a while.

He even felt ...... She is too skilled in these methods of centralization!

But who taught her these methods?

Recently, Yao Yi often sat up suddenly in the middle of the night when he was tossing and turning, twisting his eyebrows and thinking about it.

Judging by his intuition, he suspected that there was someone behind Chang Suining who was secretly instigating and instigating him......

But Yao Ran's letters frequently show that everything is Chang Suining's own idea, and even her subordinates and disciples often feel panicked and dazed because of her bold and unexpected actions......

But Yao Yi still almost firmly believes that there must be someone hidden behind Chang Suining, but he is hidden in the shadows and has never appeared...... Otherwise, everything that happened to her cannot be explained by common sense at all.

As a Dali Siqing, he is more sensitive than ordinary people, and when he was secretly looking for someone before, he also knew Chang Suining's experience from childhood to adulthood in detail...... With such an experience of being locked in the boudoir and not communicating with outsiders, how could she have created the history of Jiangdu Assassin who is well versed in power art by herself?

Neither the adjutant and the doorman around her, nor Chang Kuo's style...... So who was secretly guiding her?

Yao Yi wasn't sure what kind of mind the "person" who was very likely to exist had, and secretly decided that "that person" must be found.

After returning to the hospital, he wrote a letter to Chang Suining and Yao Ran, the one to Chang Suining, intended to test and remind; The letter to Yao Ran was to repeatedly tell her daughter to pay more attention to this matter, and if she found any clues, she immediately wrote to inform him.

……

The next day, when Xiao Min led the triumphant army into the city, the people of Beijing greeted each other.

Another day, Li Xian left Beijing with 50,000 troops to support Dongting and crusade against the rebellious army led by Bian Chunliang, an anti-thief in Daozhou.

When Li Xian rode out of the city, the remaining flowers on both sides of the official road could still be seen all the way, which were left by the people when Xiao Min entered the city yesterday.

Today, on the day of his expedition, there was no lively scene of yesterday, and there were no officials to see him off, and his aunt only said that the military situation was like fire, which made him march quickly...... At this moment, everyone should celebrate the triumphant division above the early dynasty and reward Xiao Min and his party for their meritorious deeds.

Li Xian tightened his grip on the reins, rode his horse over the remnants of the flowers, and galloped away.

This time, he will definitely return to Beijing with Bian Chunliang's head-

He wants to prove to his aunt and everyone that he is the one who can really help Dasheng save the situation!

As for Cui Jing, who has been in the limelight for too long, and Chang Kuo's father and daughter, who are now fighting against the Japanese and have no fear, the end will definitely be like a clay crushed by him under his feet at such an instant!

The army is moving forward, but not everyone has the same determination and confidence as Li Xian.

The division under Bian Chunliang was even more brutal than Xu Zhengye. If Xu Zhengye had conspired with the family before, most of the injuries were ordinary people, and under the banner of Kuang Fu's Li family, he would have some scruples about decency-

Then, in contrast, Bian Chunliang's teacher, who was born as a salt seller and openly raised the banner of rebellion, was very "indiscriminatory", and there was no distinction between rich and poor in his eyes. Its methods are barbaric and cruel, and they treat the children of the Shi clan with extreme humiliation, and they are completely inhumane.

And because of repeated victories, the imperial army was defeated, and the momentum was like a bamboo, and the name of the killing gradually became powerful, and it has vaguely formed a deterrent of "before the battle, it will make people panic".

At this moment, most of the 50,000 troops who followed Li Xian were worried in their hearts, and they didn't know what the outcome of the Battle of Dongting would be.

At this moment, most of the people in the city are talking about the grand occasion when Xiao Min's army entered the city yesterday, for the people of Beijing, this triumphant army is inseparable from General Ning Yuan, although General Ning Yuan was unable to return to Beijing together because of the fight against the Japanese invaders, but seeing this army, it is like seeing General Ning Yuan.

Speaking of General Ning Yuan, they have always heard the saying that "Yu Jiangdu ordered a hundred people to transcribe and collect books" recently, but ordinary illiterate people do not realize the true meaning of this topic, so most of them are half-aware and are not very keen to discuss this matter.

But the scholars are different, and this matter has set off a lot of waves among the literati.

In the past two days, this topic has frequently appeared in the Dengtai Tower, and the literati who went to see the [Mountains and Forests and Tigers] showed an endless stream from morning to night.

Meng Lie looked at it in his eyes, and only felt that this tiger picture seemed to have become a real landscape.

Thinking that Chang Kuo took advantage of this to save his 4,000 taels of wine money, and also took away a piece of jade pendant from him, he hated to curse at that time, but now look at it...... Not a loss?

And he heard that the girl of the Chang family was in Jiangdu, and she could get ten thousand taels of silver from the hands of rich businessmen...... If he calculates like this, not only does he not lose, but he also earns blood?

In the early morning of this day, when Dengtai Tower had not yet opened to welcome guests, Meng Lie went up to the second floor alone and quietly watched the tiger picture that made him earn blood.

I still remember that night, Mrs. Chu meant that this painting had "the wind of Her Royal Highness the Eldest Princess Chongyue"......

But he is a businessman, and he is not deeply accomplished in the way of calligraphy and painting, so he can't see any mysteries.

Is this painting really similar to His Highness's style?

Or rather...... The real question in his heart was not in this painting.

What he really wanted to ask was, why did the path that the girl was walking on now, and all that she had revealed when she walked on this path, give him a sense of resemblance to His Highness?

He tried to get an answer from Wu Jie, but Wu Ji didn't know whether he didn't want to give it or couldn't give it, and he always gave him a perfunctory sense of evasion.

And thinking of Wuji's deteriorating body, even the famous doctor who invited him was helpless, Meng Lie couldn't help but raise his eyebrows.

The street outside the building is already very lively, but Dengtai Lou does not do morning tea business, so he is not in a hurry to open the door, and the guys in the building are still wiping the tables and chairs in a hurry.

Meng Lie came down from the second floor and went to the backyard as usual, but saw a domestic servant coming in a hurry.

This servant is obviously a domestic servant, but in fact, he is a henchman who followed Meng Lie in his early years, and like Meng Lie, he is an old man who knows about Dengtai Building.

Seeing that the servant's expression was different at this moment, Meng Lie had a bad premonition in his heart.

"Boss, it's not good...... The servant hurriedly stepped forward, and before he could salute, he lowered his voice and said, "The Dayun Temple is over there...... Something has happened to the Infinite Master! ”

Meng Lie's eyes were shocked, and he immediately said, "Prepare the car!" ”

……

At the same moment, he finally waited until the end of the day, and Qiao Yang, who wanted to sleep lazily, was also woken up by the servant Shengsheng, saying that it was Mrs. Chu who came.

Qiao Yang complained in his heart, but he had to get up again, and when he was dressing, a slightly cool wind blew in in the early morning, causing him to sneeze several times in succession.

After washing up in a hurry, Qiao Yang went outside to meet the guests, and smiled at Mrs. Chu to make amends: "...... I don't know that Taifu came today, but I couldn't get up to greet you, so I told you to wait for a long time. ”

"Alright, let's go." Mrs. Chu got up from the chair with the servant carrying the fishing rod and basket and said coolly.

"Fishing so early...... Qiao Yang hurriedly followed: "The fish hasn't woken up yet."

Mrs. Chu said angrily: "Love is not going." ”

"Go, of course you have to go......" Qiao Yang smiled kindly: "You finally came over, how can you not accompany you." ”

Mrs. Chu hummed and walked forward, and Qiao Yang was keenly aware that this old man seemed to be coming with emotions.

So, on the way, I tried it with words.

I really asked him to ask, but I heard the old lady say in an unclear tone: "There is no way, I have been robbed." ”

"Thief?" Qiao Yang hurriedly asked, "What did you lose?" Has the thief been caught? ”
