Chapter 66 Kunming Chi Miaojin Drowned, Haiming Lou Yuanchong was assassinated
As soon as Chu Qing returned to Fulong Villa, he sent people around to check the ancient book "Shangshu". The hard work paid off, and a few days later, he finally found out that there was a copy of the Sui Dynasty hidden in the mansion of the former prime minister Zhang Jiuling, so he bought it at a high price.
On this day, when he heard that Li Yunhan had gone to Nine Lotus Peak again, he couldn't help but feel happy in his heart, and immediately ordered Mei Dai to go to the concert hall and ask Miao Jin to pick up the book of "Shangshu".
Mei Dai walked out of the living room after receiving the order, and was walking with her head down, when she accidentally almost bumped into Yuan Chong.
Yuan Chong saw that she was flustered, and hurriedly asked what was the matter?
Mei Dai eased her mind and said that she would go to the concert hall and invite Miao Jin to come; With that, she walked away.
Yuan Chong couldn't help but be secretly suspicious when he heard this; When he got out of the living room, he heard someone talking loudly in the room, so he eavesdropped through the window.
Inside the hall.
Chu Qing asked the lizard, is everything done?
"According to the childe's instructions, the painting boat has been arranged, and the fruits and snacks are neatly placed, just waiting for you and Miss Luo to get on the boat." Coiled lizard road.
Chu Qing nodded, and asked again: "Also, the hole in the bilge can be chiseled?" β
"Chiseled." The coiled lizard paused and frowned, "Since Childe has asked Miss Luo to come, what is the use of doing this?" β
"You don't have to worry about that." Chu Qing said and smiled secretly.
Yuan Chong listened to the conversation between the two outside the house, and couldn't help but take a cool breath, and when he was looking down to think, Chu Qing walked out of the house with the lizard.
Chu Qing saw Yuan Chong's uncertain eyes and asked him what was the matter?
Yuan Chong said that he wanted to report to him about the secret treasure.
Chu Qing glanced at the lizard, and then moved his gaze to Yuan Chong, saying that he was about to go to Kunming Pond and ordered him to come back another day.
Yuan Chong didn't say anything more when he heard this, and retreated.
Mei Dai went to the Jinju Academy and saw Luo Feng, saying that Qing Gongzi had an order and called Miaojin to go to the villa to get the ancient book "Shangshu".
Luo Feng's face was embarrassed when he heard this, and he hesitated for a while.
"Don't worry," Mei Dai saw his thoughts, and raised her eyebrows, "Your Excellency treats slaves and maids like relatives; With me, she'll be fine. β
"That's good." Luo Feng thought for a while, and told her to go home as soon as she took it, and not to delay for too long.
Subsequently, Luo Feng asked Ah Chun to call Miaojin, told her about picking up the book, and told her carefully.
Miao Jin and Mei Dai came out of the study to talk and laugh, and when they passed by the West Wing, they saw Shaoling and several guys from the printing workshop were typesetting and carving for the new newspaper, so they stepped forward to say hello to him.
Du Shaoling asked her, where are you going?
Miaojin deliberately teased him, saying that he would go to Kunming Pool to play, and he would eat roasted fresh carp.
Shaoling couldn't help but swallow his saliva when he heard this, and said that he also wanted to go.
Miao Jin saw that he was lying to him, so he told the truth, saying that he was invited by Qing Gongzi to get an ancient book.
As soon as he heard that Young Master Qing had invited him, Shaoling couldn't help but feel disappointed and muttered into the house.
Mei Dai accompanied Miaojin out of the concert hall, only walked dozens of steps, and bumped into Yuan Chong head-on.
Yuan Chong got off the horse and lied that there was a hundred opera festivals in the West Market, and wanted to invite Miao Jintong to watch.
Miaojin listened and ignored him.
Yuan Chong also said that there was a dragon boat race in Qujiang Pond and invited her to watch it.
Miao Jin was bored and said: "What's wrong with you today, one moment you said that you would go to the West Market to watch a play, and another time you said that you would go to Qujiang Boat Race, what is your intention?" β
Yuan Chong smiled and said, "It's not that I want to be with the girl and talk more." β
"Don't be funny," Mei Dai warned Yuan Chong sharply, "If you miss the matter of Qing Gongzi, I want you to look good!" β
Yuan Chong pretended not to know and asked her what was the matter?
Miaojin said angrily: "Don't ask, go to Kunming Pool to get a book." β
Yuan Chong said "um" and said that he wanted to go with her?
"Stop dwelling!" Mei Dai pushed Yuan Chong, "Otherwise, don't blame me for being ruthless!" β
Yuan Chong reluctantly got out of the way and watched the two of them go away.
Concert Hall, West Wing.
In order to engrave the layout of the new newspaper, Shaoling took the guys from the four printing workshops to work for most of the day, and his body was very tired. He said hello and went back to the grocery room to lie down.
He was in a daze when he suddenly felt something hit his face, and when he opened his eyes, it was a ball of paper wrapped in stones. He opened the paper ball and saw that there were five big characters written on it: "Flowers fall in Kunming Pool".
Shaoling was startled when he saw it, got up and looked out the window for a while, and there was nothing unusual in the silence. He paced back and forth in the room, recalling the scene where Fang Cai was talking to Mei Dai and Miao Jin, and suddenly had an epiphany, so he simply cleaned up and left the concert hall.
Yuan rushed into the study and saw Luo Feng and exchanged a few words.
Luo Feng made a cup of tea and handed it over, and asked him why his face was not quite right?
"I'm tired, the gang has been doing a lot of things lately, and I haven't slept well for several nights." Yuan Chong seemed absent-minded, and took a sip of tea, "By the way, I met Miaojin on the street just now, and I was in a hurry, and I didn't pay attention to the question......"
"She went to see Qing Gongzi and picked up an ancient book."
"Pick up the book...... Why not send someone down? β
"I made an appointment with Childe earlier; Besides, this book is very precious, and I am relieved that Jin'er is gone. Luo Feng was a little unimpressed.
Yuan Chong frowned when he heard this: "This ......"
"Don't worry, with Meidai by your side, nothing will happen." Luo Feng said that he walked to the Bogu shelf and took the chess box from the shelf, "It's rare to be idle today, you and I will play a game, how about it?" β
Yuan Chong smiled bitterly and said that there was no need.
"It's been a long time since I've played chess...... Could it be that there is no other arrangement? β
"No, but ......" Yuan Chong stopped talking.
"Do you dislike Luo's chess skills too badly?" Luo Feng spread the chess slip on the table, and said solemnly, "Since this is the case, let's have a good fight with Brother Yuan and decide on a good match!" β
Yuan Chong saw that he couldn't refuse, so he smiled and played against Luo Feng......
It was almost dusk, the clouds in the west sky quietly faded, and the fog and shadows of the trees were swaying by the Kunming pool.
Miao Jin rushed to the lake with Mei Dai, and a man in servant costume was already waiting on the shore, pointing to the boat and beckoning Miao Jin to go up.
Miaojin jumped on the board with one foot, walked a few steps, and when he turned around, he didn't see Meidai follow, and he couldn't help frowning.
Mei Dai seemed to see her thoughts, and smiled on the shore: "I have been unwell for the past two days, and I am a little seasick. β
"Coward." Miao Jin said and jumped on the bow of the boat.
Before she could gain a foothold, a captain rowed the boat off the shore.
Miao Jin entered the cabin, which was empty, and there were some snacks and seasonal fruits such as fresh oranges and pineapples on the table. She was wondering when she saw Chu Qing flash out from the side and say hello to her.
Miao Jin asked, what about the book?
Chu Qing smiled and took out a book from his sleeve and shook it lightly at her, saying, "Girl, sit down, I have something to say to you." β
"Don't bother to talk, give me the "Book of Shang" quickly!"
Chu Qing gently put the book on the table, sat down, and said: "The lake and mountains here are beautiful, and there are fragrant and beautiful people as companions, which is really wonderful." β
Miaojin was quite impatient and reached out to get the book, but was snatched away by Chu Qing.
"Wouldn't it be nice for the girl to come from a long distance and drink a glass or two of light wine and enjoy a round of bright moon."
"Hmph, book, I don't want it!" Miaojin said angrily, "I'll go!" β
"Since you can't keep the girl, then please." Chu Qing didn't seem to care.
Miaojin got out of the cabin, only to see the boat spinning in the middle of the lake, and the captain had long since disappeared. She leaned down to look for the oars, but was nowhere to be found.
A crescent moon hangs obliquely on the willow tops on the shore, and the water and sky are connected in a gray patch.
Miao Jin relieved herself and shouted to the shore, hoping that someone would come to her rescue. But she shouted for a long time, but no one responded.
Chu Qing walked out of the cabin and said with a smile: "If the girl shouts hoarsely, I can't explain it to Father Ling." β
"Hypocrisy! What about oars? β
"What oars are needed, just a kamikaze."
"Hmph, you want to hurt me?" Miao Jin's eyes widened angrily.
"Nope. This is fate, and God is deliberately rubbing you and me. β
"You deceived me by taking books, it's despicable!"
"The girl misunderstood, a book is a book, love is love, and a book is used to convey love." Chu Qing was still smiling.
"It's not just a broken book, don't want it; You let me go! β
"Girl, don't be presumptuous;" Chu Qing had a gloomy face, "I have already issued a marriage letter to Father Ling, if he doesn't agree, will he let you come?" β
"What a marriage book, it's just a piece of waste paper!"
"Father has agreed, why should you be stubborn!"
"Nonsense, I'm in charge of my business!"
"Could it be that the girl is still thinking about that Li Yunhan?" Chu Qingyin smiled, "What about him, but he is a down-and-out literati who knows a few lines of poetry, what else is good!" β
Miaojin heard this and made a plan, and pretended to say: "Okay, as long as you send me to the shore, I promise you." β
Chu Qing thought that he had moved her, and there was a burst of joy in his heart, saying that he was going to take a gift and persuaded her to wait for a while. After speaking, Chu Qing leaned down and got into the cabin, secretly removed the plug that was blocked in the bilge, and the lake water instantly poured into the cabin.
Chu Qing got on the bow of the boat, handed a pair of jade and gold bracelets to Miaojin, and said with a smile: "This pair of bracelets should be a gift for the girl." β
Miaojin hesitated and accepted it.
Chu Qing thought that his plan had succeeded, and said with a dry smile: "Well, yes, I'll call someone to pick up the boat." β
Chu Qing took down a big red lantern hanging from the mast, shook it vigorously into the distance, and shouted: "Come-man-where." β
As soon as the shouting fell, I saw a small boat faintly rowing in the mist in the distance.
Miao Jin saw that his heart was a little calm; As soon as he looked down, he suddenly found that the cabin was flooded, and he exclaimed: "Water, water, it's going to sink......
"Girl, don't panic," Chu Qing said with a calm face and a long sigh looking up to the sky, "Could it be that God is also moved by my infatuation and wants to fulfill our ......"
"Hmph, you really want to die?"
"Haha-I can accompany my sweetheart to die, even if I die, what are the regrets!" Chu Qing laughed wildly a few times, stepped forward and hugged Miaojin, "Jin'er, I'm sincere......"
The water of the lake rushed to the bow of the boat, and the hull of the boat swayed; The two were unsteady on their feet and collapsed into the lake.
Miao Jin can't swim and struggles desperately in the lake.
Chu Qing paddled with one hand, hugged Miaojin with the other, and struggled to swim to the shore.
Although Miaojin was disgusted, she was not familiar with the water and could not break free in the water, so she had to let Chu Qing hold her.
At this time, Du Shaoling came quietly with a flat boat.
Chu Qing saw that it was Shaoling, and couldn't help but be stunned: "Why are you?" β
"Haha - your people were kicked off the ship by me." Du Shaoling smiled proudly.
Chu Qing hesitated and held up Miaojin; Du Shaoling grabbed her and pulled her onto the boat.
Miao Jin lay on the edge of the boat, spat a few mouthfuls of water, and gradually eased up; She said to Chu Qing in the water: "Childe's swimming skills are really good!" Swim one more lap. β
"Quick, pull me up." Chu Qing pulled the side of the boat and begged. Miao Jin didn't allow it, and while hitting him with an oar, he said that the boat was small and would capsize.
"Really, I'm dying......" Chu Qing struggled in the water with a pale face.
"Didn't you laugh at Brother Li just now?" Miao Jin raised her face and sneered, "Save you, but first make a seven-character poem." β
Chu Qing was dejected when he heard this, and said weakly: "Jin'er, I, I was wrong......
"Hmph, what a bitter ploy." Although Miaojin was extremely angry, he was worried that Chu Qing would lose his life if he couldn't bear it, so he untied the silk silk around his waist, tied Chu Qing's arm with one end, and pulled it tightly in his hand, letting him slowly row to the shore with the boat.
Du Shaoling rowed a small boat and quipped: "What a hero saves a beauty." β
"Hmph, don't talk nonsense!" Miaojin blushed, "I didn't let him save me!" β
"That's wishful thinking on the part of Young Master Qing." Du Shaoling said to Chu Qing.
Chu Qing was very depressed when he heard this, half with his head half exposed and half floating in the water, unable to say a word.
Concert Hall. The night was hazy.
At this time, Yuan Chong was still playing chess with Luo Feng in the study.
Yuan Chong was a little uncertain because he was thinking about Miaojin in his heart, and he was frequently leaking; But Luo Feng seemed to have nothing to do, still talking and laughing, pressing step by step.
About half an hour later, before the end of the plate, Yuan Chong wanted to abandon his son and admit defeat, but Luo Feng didn't allow it, insisting on letting him finish it.
Yuan Chong sat on pins and needles, got up and looked out the window, and said that it was getting late, and the gang still had some things to deal with urgently, and it couldn't be delayed any longer...... Luo Feng didn't hold back when he heard this, and sent him out of the courtyard with a smile.
When the night was dark and his daughter still didn't come home, Luo Feng couldn't help but feel a little flustered......
Miao Jin had a headache and fever due to the cold in the water, and as soon as he returned to the concert house that night, he fell ill in bed.
Luo Feng hurriedly invited Lang Zhong to come for diagnosis and treatment and gave her a decoction.
Due to the careful care of her parents, Miao Jin recuperated for a day, and her body gradually recovered.
Liu Shi knelt at the head of the bed, saw his daughter's haggard face, and complained to Luo Feng with tears: "It's all your fault, just send someone to go, but let the child suffer this crime!" β
Luo Feng sighed: "The boat is leaking, who do you say can blame for this......"
"Hmph, when will you excuse Young Master Qing? This is clearly his bitter ploy! β
"You, don't be angry." Luo Feng said weakly, "Didn't he also apologize, and sent people to send so many high-grade medicinal materials: Goryeo wild ginseng, Wula grass ...... in Xing'an Mountains"
"I'm not unusual!" Liu's eyes widened and he glared at Luo Feng, "See you next time, I have to scold him!" β
Luo Feng sighed lightly and walked to the window, and said indifferently: "Qing Gongzi can't afford to offend." β
Liu was stunned for a moment and said, "Are you afraid?" β
Before Luo Feng could speak, Miaojin interjected: "Dad, you are just afraid of his identity. β
Luo Feng looked stunned: "Oh? β
"Dad, his name is not Qingyi, he is Chu Mohan's eldest son - Chu Qing." Miao Jin's face was calm.
Liu couldn't help but panic when he heard what his daughter said, and he couldn't speak for a long time.
After several battles, although Ping Yu's feelings for Wang Jie were not as strong as they were at the beginning, he was still unwilling to give up, and his heart was full of torment.
Ning Xin saw her thoughts and persuaded Ping Yu to kill Lou Yue as soon as possible.
"What's the use of killing her!" Ping Yu's expression was indifferent, "Wang Jie is ungrateful, and his heart has already been taken away by that little wild cat......"
Ning Xin was worried that if this continued, Wang Jie would inevitably return to Lou Yue's side.
"Men, don't tighten the strings too tightly, you have to loosen them when it's time to loosen them." Ping Yu smiled sadly, "No matter how hard Wang Jie is, he can't escape from my palm!" β
Ning Xin said "um" and said, "Right now, he is eager for revenge, but he doesn't dare to do anything; But once revenge is taken, it's hard to say. β
"Really?" Ping Yu sneered, "I want to see how they can kill Yuan Chong with their skills!" β
After being silent for a while, Ping Yu instructed her to send someone to keep an eye on Wang Jie, and report it at any time if there was a situation......
As in the past, in the afternoon of this day, Yuan Chong couldn't hold back his addiction to eat, and took a few guards such as Mi Hong to Haiming Tower. He found a private room on the second floor and sat down, and ate the fish with eight and the fish, and drank a few sips of wine from time to time.
Suddenly, the door curtain was lifted, and a small chapel with clear eyebrows walked in, carrying a wine jug in one hand and a plate of raw fish in the other.
Yuan Chong couldn't help but be stunned when he saw this, and asked her why she was on the plate again?
The shopkeeper seemed to be a little timid, lowered his head and didn't squeak.
Yu Hong, who was standing on the side, shouted: "Little Er, you forgot, in the past, every time the master dined, he only served three plates of sashimi. β
The small hall man hurriedly bowed and bowed, and replied softly: "The guest officer doesn't know, today's store celebrates, because you are an old customer, so you give an extra plate." β
"Dianqing," Yuan Chong blinked, listening to the voice of Xiao Er, it seemed to be a little familiar, so he looked at her carefully for a while, but for a while he couldn't remember where he had seen it.
It turned out that this small hall was dressed by Lou Yue. After discovering in advance, Yuan Chong had a penchant for eating raw fish, so she came to Haiminglou every three or five days to eat, and she was unguarded, so she sneaked into the store early.
Lou Yue took the wine glass and was about to pour the wine, but was stopped by Yuan Chong, saying that he had brought his own wine.
Lou Yue was a little embarrassed, forced out a smile, and said: "Guest officer, this wine is ten years old in our store, and it only came out of the altar yesterday, why not give it a quick taste." β
Yuan Chong sniffed the wine and sniffed, a little hesitant.
Mi Hong shouted: "Don't bother, don't get out of here!" β
"If the guest officer doesn't drink, why is he so rude." Lou Yue said and poured a full cup and drank it in one gulp, "Yes, it's really good wine." β
Yuan Chong saw that she had drunk, so he relieved his heart and sniffed his nose again.
Seeing this, Lou Yue hurriedly poured a full cup, handed it over, and said, "The guest officer uses it slowly." β
Yuan Chong took the wine glass, drank it all, and praised: "Yes, this wine is really rich and mellow and charming." β
Lou Yue poured another cup and handed it forward.
When Yuan Chong was about to drink, he suddenly felt some discomfort in his stomach, thought for a moment and knocked over the wine glass, and shouted: "You, who are you?" β
Seeing that the matter was revealed, Lou Yue took out a sharp blade from his arms and stabbed it straight away. Yuan Chong was shocked when he saw it, and he dodged to one side.
Lou Yue stabbed several times in succession, but none of them stabbed; Mi Hong pulled out her waist knife and slashed over, Lou Yue had to give up Yuan Chong and fight with Mi Hong.
Wang Jie, who was hiding outside the house, heard the movement and rushed in with his face covered. Mi Hong was caught off guard for a while, and was stabbed in the left arm by him with a sword.
Although Yuan Chong dealt with it empty-handed, his offensive was sharp, and everywhere he went, it was like a sea of mountains. Wang Jie tried his best to fight with him for three or four rounds, but he saw Lou Yue's face pale and panting, so he asked her what was wrong?
Lou Yue said that she also drank ......
Wang Jie heard a panic in his heart, and while desperately fighting against Yuan Chong, he covered Lou Yue out of the house.
The two rushed downstairs and were surrounded by Yuan Chong's other three bodyguards.
Lou Yue's face turned pale, and she endured the colic pain in her abdomen to fight against her, but her arm had long since stopped obeying the call.
Due to the onset of toxicity, Yuan Chong's heart was also beating faster and his body was cold, and he was a little powerless. But after all, there were many of them, and they soon forced Lou Yue and Wang Jie to retreat to the corner.
At the critical moment, Ping Yu rushed to the hall with a group of maids. The maids couldn't help but wave their swords and surrounded Yuan Chong and his men.
Yuan Chong drank and asked, who is coming?
Ning Xin stepped forward and said, "I'm blind and waiting for the dog's eyes, I don't even recognize the princess!" β
Yuan Chong was suddenly startled when he heard this, he had a plan and covered his stomach and said, "Your Highness, she used poisonous wine to harm me!" β
Ping Yu smiled and said to Lou Yue: "You are really vicious." β
Lou Yue said angrily: "To avenge my father, how can I not be ruthless." β
"Revenge, that's easy; As long as you break off the relationship with Wang Jie, I will avenge you. Ping Yu sneered.
Lou Yue hesitated for a moment, gritted her teeth and said, "Okay, as long as you kill Yuan Chong, Wang Jie and I will be cut off from now on." β
"Your Highness, you can't, Yue'er is also poisoned." Wang Jie pleaded, "Really, she's dying......"
"It's all on this, and you still can't bear her!" Ping Yu twisted his body and pointed at Yuan Chong, "What about him, kill or not?" β
Wang Jie shouted: "Killβno!" β
"Yes, princess, and it will be done to you. Let you decide to the death today! Ping Yu said and waved his hand, and the maids dodged to the side.
At this moment, Yuan Chong's poisonous attack was heartbroken, thinking that if he delayed any longer, he would definitely die, so he pretended to be generous, waved his hand at Wang Jie, and said, "Let's go, let's go......"
Ping Yu laughed and said, "This is God's will." β
Wang Jie didn't dare to slack off, rushed out of the store with Lou Yue in his arms, and galloped away on a fast horse......
Fortunately, the rescue was timely, and with Wang Jie's careful care, Lou Yue's body was no longer in serious trouble after a few days of treatment.
Wang Jie carefully helped Lou Yue sit up straight, and used his palm on her back to heal her injuries. Lou Yue's heart gradually became hot, and then she spit out a mouthful of blood, and her body fell into Wang Jie's arms.
Wang Jie asked someone to bring a bowl of soup and medicine, and comforted her while feeding her carefully; It is said that the poisonous gas in the body is exhausted, and the blood is cleared and then take some tonics, and it will be cured in a few days.
Lou Yue's gray eyes widened and asked, "Really?" β
"Hmm." Wang Jie stared at her, "These days, you sleep in a daze, you don't eat or drink, but you frighten people." Fortunately, you have less poison in your body and timely treatment, so you escaped this catastrophe. β
Lou Yue was quiet and said in a low voice: "If I die, you marry another one." β
"Alright, stop talking nonsense." Wang Jie replied in a low voice.
"Really. Your career matters, if you ...... by mistake because of me"
"Nope. For your sake, I'd rather give up my career! β
"I'm angry again;" Lou Yue drooped her face, her voice trembling slightly, "I'm a dying person, what is there to be nostalgic for, or your future matters." β
"Yue'er, alasβ" Wang Jie sighed softly and hugged her tightly......
