Chapter 234: The Baby Girl of the Year
He Shi looked at the several packets of medicine that Gu Yunjie gave her, and when she opened one of them, they were all some medicinal powders, as for what kind of medicine it was, she couldn't tell it at all.
"Do you want to give Zihao a drink, you have an idea." He has never seen this kind of medicine, and it doesn't need to be the same as the previous medicine, it has to be fried first, and it can be drunk directly.
"We ran like this and got medicine for Zihao, so naturally we want to give Zihao a drink, so as to see what medicine Gu Yunjie is selling in her stomach." Liu Jiaqi was in favor of giving Zihao a drink.
Zhou was a little hesitant: "She won't have the intention of harming our Zihao." β
"It's all in the same village, if our Zihao really has a good one, he can't run away at all."
So He poured some warm boiled water, washed the powder away, and let Liu Zihao drink it.
Liu Zihao almost didn't spit it out: "What kind of bitterness is this." β
"It's all bitter medicine, how can there be a reason not to be bitter."
"I eat three times a day, all after meals, and if I don't get better for three days, I'll go to her again to ask for an explanation."
β¦β¦
After Gu Yunjie and Chu Chu had breakfast, they took Lingbao to the county seat.
She wanted to inquire about what Liu Qingshan sent to Kang Shunzhou that day. That's her mother's stuff, and she's going to get it back.
Speaking of Chen Guangshi, the subordinates of the Chen Mansion once drank too much in the restaurant, saying that their son-in-law is now mixing smoothly in the capital, because Master Kang has something to do in the capital.
For this matter, everyone will listen to it. The capital is too far away from them to be a place they can care about.
"The most direct way to do this is to visit the county government at night." Chu Chu said softly: "We induced him to take out the things that Liu Qingshan gave him." β
"Although Kang Shunzhou is not a big official, he is very careful of himself, and he has cultivated a few people with a good martial arts foundation around him to protect him, and it is not easy for us to get close to him." Gu Yunjie shook her head: "I just want to inquire now, and I don't want to make too much noise yet." β
β¦β¦
At this time, the county government came to an unfamiliar guest.
Kang Shunzhou never thought that the noble man in Guangshixin would come to meet him in the middle of the night.
"Xiaguan has seen the prince." When Kang Shunzhou learned that the young man in front of him was Prince Yu, his legs trembled with fright.
Prince Yu was wearing a python robe patterned clothes, and Yushu stood in front of Kang Shunzhou in the wind: "You are Kang Shunzhou Lord Kang?" β
"The next official is Kang Shunzhou."
"This king came here today because he was puzzled by something, so he came from the capital to ask you." Prince Yu's voice was not loud, but the aura of the superior was not something that Kang Shunzhou could suppress with a small county order.
"Lord Wang, please speak."
"Before, your nephew Chen Guangshi appeared in the capital with a jade pendant and wanted to be killed. The king's men found him, and found him. According to him, this jade pendant was given to him by you. also said that as long as he showed up in the capital with this jade pendant, someone would find him. I want to ask Master Kang, how are you sure that when he appears with a jade pendant, someone will find him. Prince Jade asked softly.
In a short sentence, Kang Shunzhou was sweating profusely.
Yes, how did he conclude that the appearance of that jade pendant would lead the nobles out. If he tells the truth, he treats his nephew as a lure, or to put it another way.
"Master Kang, come and tell me, this king is very curious." Prince Jade's gaze was more of an inquiry.
Kang Shunzhou was so frightened that he broke out in a cold sweat and fell directly to the ground: "Lord Wang, this jade pendant has some fate with Xiaguan. This jade pendant is not owned by the official, but was given to me by the people below. I think this jade pendant is well made, a bit like a valuable item in the capital, but I can't get it accurately. It happened that Guangshi was sick and wanted to go to the capital, so I simply did a favor and gave him the jade pendant. Xia Guan didn't know that this jade pendant was related to you, but he just wanted to know if this jade pendant was worth anything, and if it was valuable, there would be nobles coming to the door. β
At that time, where did he think that the jade pendant just glanced at the capital and summoned the jade prince.
I knew that the jade pendant was so big, how could he give it to Guangshi, he must have hidden it himself.
"That's it?" Prince Yu knocked on the table: "Don't hide it from Lord Kang, this jade pendant is very important to this king, if this king finds out that you have something to hide from this king, what will be the consequences, this king does not dare to guarantee." β
"Lord Wang, the lower officials used their heads as a guarantee, and they definitely didn't hide half a point. It was given to Xiaguan in the previous Shimobao Village. Xia Guan looked good, so he stayed. β
"You make arrangements, this king wants to meet this person."
"It's ......." Kang Shunzhou was very embarrassed: "Lord, he is no longer alive, but he still has sons and grandsons alive, and the prince wants to see him." β
"Arrange for this king to meet them. You must keep this matter a secret for the king, and don't let anyone know about it. β
"Yes, the lower officials must arrange it." Kang Shunzhou arranged a place for Prince Yu and his entourage to stay, and he didn't sleep much at night, so he called a few powerful subordinates early in the morning to call Liu Qingshan's eldest son and grandson.
β¦β¦
After Liu Zihao drank the medicine given by Gu Yunjie a few times, his mental state was much better, he no longer coughed up blood, and he was able to walk on the ground.
He Shi looked at Zihao's state much better, and secretly thought that Gu Yunjie's death still had an effect.
"Zihao, come over and drink porridge. You can't eat anything else these days, but drink some porridge. He gave Liu Zihao a bowl of porridge and put it on the table.
Liu Zihao sat at the table and drank a bowl in one go.
Just as he was about to drink the second bowl, Zhu ran home panting: "Mother, mother, I just saw that the official errand was admitted, is it that our family Zihao was admitted, and the official errand came to the house to report the matter." β
Calculate the time, it's almost time to release the good news.
"What, I'll take a look outside." When He heard this, he was overjoyed, and ran out happily, wanting to meet those officials with his own eyes.
Thinking of something, he said to the Zhu family: "Go get some broken silver, the officials came from afar, but it was hard." β
"Ugh." Zhu turned his head and went back to the house and told his sister-in-law the news that the official had arrived.
When Zhou and Liu Jiaqi heard this, they were overjoyed.
"Thank God, my son is really competitive and has become the first talent in our village, and he will be promoted to the middle official in the future." Zhou clasped his hands together.
On the same day, the Taoist priest told her that Zihao would worship the least three officials. What does this mean, it shows that Zihao's official career is smooth, and Sanpin is only the smallest official position, and it may be bigger than this official.
This exam almost cost Zihao half his life, and now that there are results, it is worth it.
Supporting Liu Jiaqi, he waited at the door early to greet the people of the official family.
Liu Zihao heard that the person who reported the good news was coming, so he turned around and went back to the room to re-tie his hair. In the past few days, I have been recuperating in bed, and my hair has not been properly tied.
The people who came were Zhang Zhutou and Master Fu.
Zhang Zhutou rode a horse, and Master Fu came over in a carriage.
"This is Liu Qingshan's home." Zhang Zhutou glanced at the row of people standing at the door of the house and asked.
"Back to the official, this is Liu Qingshan's home, and you are here to report the good news." The smile on Ho's face couldn't be stopped.
As long as Zihao is admitted to Xiucai, this is the first one in the village.
"What do you like or not?" Zhang Zhutou frowned: "Our adults have invited Liu Qingshan's son and grandson to enter the mansion." β
"Official, aren't you here to report the good news?"
"We are just here to invite people, and the adults have invited Liu Qingshan's two sons and grandsons."
"Yes, the little one will go with someone immediately." Liu Jiaqi whispered to He: "It must be Zihao's good grades, and the adults will entertain him personally." Let the second child come back quickly and accompany Zihao on this trip. β
The Liu family's Qi brothers, plus a Liu Zihao, who is still completely well, and the three of them squeezed a carriage with Master Fu.
Master Fu said in the car that there was a noble person in the county, and his status was very noble, and they must pay attention to their reply.
Ask what to answer, don't think about hiding it, if you let that noble person find out, maybe you will fall into the big crime of killing your head.
Liu Zihao listened to the master's tone and asked: "I don't know where the noble people are looking for us in the past, what is the reason?" β
"You shouldn't have asked, don't ask so much. When the time comes, remember not to talk nonsense, answer whatever the noble person asks, and don't answer wrong. β
Liu Zihao listened to his master's words, and for a while he didn't know what the identity of the noble man was, and what he came from.
If it's because of his talent, it's easy to do. If it was because of something else, he couldn't be sure for a while.
β¦β¦
Because of the arrival of the official mission, the village came to ask the He family what was the matter.
There was a smile in He's face: "What else can it be, it must be my family's son Hao, and Master Kang came to him to talk about things." β
"Your son Hao has been admitted to show talent?" The villagers were surprised.
"A must." He Shi raised his head: "If Zihao doesn't pass the exam, will Master Kang send someone to pick up our Zihao into the city?" It must be to announce the good news in front of him. β
In He's opinion, Zihao is a good thing to be able to take the test. Master Kang must have known some news, and he had a good relationship with their family in advance.
You know, Master Kang may be like this for the rest of his life, but Zihao is different. He will have to take the exam in the future, maybe he will become a big official.
"Congratulations." The villagers listened to He's words and congratulated He.
Gu Lanshi heard the news of Liu Zihao's examination for Xiucai outside, and went home to talk to Gu Chenggang.
Gu Chenggang didn't react much: "It's their ability to pass the test." β
"That's just as well." It is also very capable to be able to get a talent in the exam, like their village, but there has not been a talent for many years. Now that there is a showman, the big guy naturally wants to take a look at it.
β¦β¦
Kang Shunzhou brought Liu Zihao's father and son to Prince Yu, but Kang Shunzhou did not introduce the identity of Prince Yu to them, only said that he was a noble man from the capital, and asked about some things.
"Who are you Liu Qingshan?" Yan glanced at it and asked Liu Zihao.
"Back to this son, Liu Qingshan is my grandfather." Liu Zihao met the other party's eyes and was shocked.
Thinking that the temperament of this person is much more noble than that of Qi Gongzi, he is definitely not an ordinary person.
I just don't know what the other party is asking my grandfather for.
"I heard Master Kang say that your grandfather has some valuable gadgets in his hands, but I don't know if you still have them. If there is, this son wants to see it. As long as you can get into the eyes of this son, the price will not be less. "The banquet is straight to the point.
Legend has it that General Jin also cultivated an iron cavalry back then, and that iron cavalry was only under the control of General Jin. After the Jin family was wiped out, there was no news about the iron horse. Yu Pei didn't appear, and he wouldn't have remembered it. With the appearance of the jade pendant, he had to brace himself to look for this possible thing.
If it doesn't exist, no one wants to get it.
If it exists, it is his, and he must take it back, and it cannot fall into the hands of others.
Therefore, he came here in person, just to make sure that the person who owned the jade pendant had anything else on him.
When Liu Jiaqi and the three of them heard it, there was anything they didn't understand, the son in front of him didn't come for Zihao's exam results, but for the box at home.
Liu Zihao looked at Liu Jiaqi.
Liu Jiaqi walked out and saluted lightly to the banquet: "Don't hide it from my son, there are no good things in our family." If there is, don't dare to hide it, and the family will take it out. β
Last time, his father sent something to Master Kang, and he didn't know at all. I don't know what the noble son in front of me is rushing for.
"Really?" Yan Qing asked again: "Then I'll change the question, where did you come from with the jade pendant that Liu Qingshan brought that day." β
The jade pendant is still there, what does this mean, others don't know, he can think about it.
It shows that there are still people in the Jin family alive, whether his fiancΓ©e is alive or someone else is still alive, it is unknown.
"Back to Childe's words. The jade pendant was picked up by my father, and other than that, nothing else was picked up. β
"Just picked up a jade pendant?" Yan Qing twisted his eyebrows, not quite convinced.
"And a baby girl."
"What?" Yan Qing's voice was a little louder.
Liu Zihao and Liu Jiali instantly looked at Liu Jiaqi.
One twisted his eyebrows, thinking about what his father was planning. One can't believe what the big brother is going to do.
"Baby girl?"
"That's right. The baby girl was put at our door by someone for nowhere, and my father saw that she was pitiful, so he took her back. At that time, the jade pendant was placed in the baby girl's arms? β
"How old is that baby girl?" Yan Qing's face returned to just now, and the excitement just now was like a flash in the pan.
"Not yet seventeen."
"Can you get married now?"
"It's an honor to be favored by Chen Gongzi, and now she is Chen Gongzi's seventh aunt." Liu Jiaqi bowed his head and said this.
He had an idea in his heart, but he didn't know if that idea was right or not, so he could only gamble on it.
Kang Shunzhou listened to Liu Jiaqi's words, looked over for a moment, and frowned.
"Really?" There was no joy or anger on Yan Qing's face.
"Don't dare to lie to my son with this."
Yan Qing stared at Liu Jiaqi for a long time, and only after a while did he hear his voice: "Where is she now?" β
"Childe wants to see her, I can have someone call her over now." It's just a little aunt, and she can bring someone over at any time: "It's just that she has a lowly status, and the son is afraid that it is not suitable to see her." β
"Then you don't have to see you." Yan Qing learned that the other party had become someone else's concubine, and snorted coldly in his heart.
Regardless of whether the other party is the one of the Jin family or not, it is impossible with himself.
