Chapter 9: The Meishan Snake Demon (I)

The garden was suddenly interrupted by a loud noise, and everyone was amazed. After seeing the crowd, Wang Xin knelt down there and asked for instructions.

The emperor was very happy when he was drinking fragrant tea and talking about flowers and birds, and he was deeply disappointed when he saw someone interrupting him, and he saw that the official uniform grade was only a small five-grade official. Immediately lowered his face and said, "What should Aiqing talk about?"

Wang Xindao: "The ambition of Zhao Kuangyin, the lord of the Song Dynasty, is not small, in order to unify the world, he is sending troops to recruit different forces from all sides of the world, and quickly pacify the towns, which is unstoppable. Now that we have leveled the countries, how can we allow our Northern Han Dynasty to dominate one side? I hope that the emperor will think of countermeasures as soon as possible. ”

The emperor said: "What about what you built?"

Wang Xindao: "With my Northern Han District, it is impossible to compete with the Song Lord, for today's plan, only the west unites the Western Xia, the east and the Liao alliance, and then lays out the formation to prevent trouble as soon as possible." ”

The emperor looked left and right and said, "What do you think?"

At this time, an old man stepped forward, about fifty years old, wearing a purple robe and a goldfish belt. He has a bloated figure, white eyebrows and white hair, thin eyes and thin lips. He stepped forward and saluted: "Your Majesty, my Northern Han Dynasty is located in Jinyang, the terrain is dangerous, and it is a treasure land to achieve the emperor's business." Even if the Song Lord comes to attack, relying on the dangerous terrain, it will ensure that my Northern Han can sit back and relax. He turned his head and squinted at Wang Xindao: "Doctor Wang's words are really alarmist, and he will grow the ambition of others and destroy his own prestige!"

Wang Xin saw that this person was Cai Rong, the official history of the Sanpin Privy Council. At the beginning, his righteous brother Yang Jiye was imprisoned in Shanhou Village, which was this person's gluttonous words to the emperor. Hearing him so bewitched today, I couldn't help but be annoyed in my heart, and said: "Cai Shumi's words are bad, and there is always a benefit to preventing problems before they happen, and there is no harm." Can't you sit back and die?"

At this time, a voice said: 'My Hedong city is solid, and the Song Lord retreated because of the difficulties, so what is the worry of the ancients?"

The officials saw that this person was the Minister of State Liu Sui. He was around forty years old, wearing a purple robe, a brocade ribbon around his waist, and a jade pendant on the side. He has a thin body and a pair of eyes like electricity and stars.

Liu Sui is above 10,000 people in the Northern Han Dynasty. Hearing him say this, all the officials nodded in agreement.

The emperor was already unhappy with Wang Xin's defeat, and when he heard the two important ministers say this, he said angrily: "Wang Qing will step back for the time being." ”

Wang Xin saw that the emperor was angry, so he had to retreat.

After Cai Rong saw Wang Xin retreat, the corners of his mouth curled up slightly without warning, and after a flash of expression, he said to the emperor: "Wang Xin and Yang Jiye have the same affection, Yang Jiye has long had a heart for my lord, and I think that Wang Xin will be a minister and a thief like Yang Jiye when he arrives." ”

The emperor said: "That is, Wang Xin was cut to the people, sent to Shiqiaoyi, sent someone to take care of it, and found that he was in collusion with Yang Jiye again, and immediately beheaded it to show the public." ”

Cai Rong was happy, and when he returned to the house, he was also full of spring breeze.

Cai Rong had changed into civilian clothes at this time. Wearing a brocade red cotton robe, the waist is tied with a white marble pendant, which shows great wealth and nobility. The stove in the inner hall was blazing, and there were a few crackling sparks. Cai Rong was holding his cheeks with one hand, a little drowsy, and there was a young manservant under him, who was gently destroying his legs.

At this time, the butler entered the inner hall, and the butler was lean, with a sharp beak and monkey gills, and a pair of mouse eyes shimmering. He smiled all over his face, and said politely: "Master, the goods for Liu Erniang have arrived." ”

Cai Rong's eyes opened slightly, and he said, "Hmm." ”

The housekeeper said: "Master, Liu Erniang has arrived, let the villain arrange a secluded house, and is practicing." ”

Cai Rong stood up and startled the servant who broke his leg. I only heard Cai Rong scolding: "Bastard thing, Liu Erniang has arrived, why did you come to report?"

The butler glanced at the manservant, who hurriedly retreated.

When the housekeeper saw the manservant walk out, there were only two of them left in the house, so he said: "Master, the villain really doesn't know how much of a storm her little girl can make, why every time you come back, your old man is respectful to her?"

This steward is the son of the Privy Council, which means that his father is a servant here. He grew up in this privy council since he was a child, and he is Cai Rong's most loyal heart. Cai Rong does not avoid him in many things.

Cai Rong sat down slowly, took a sip of tea and said, "How do you know that I respect her because they are the Seven Demons of Meishan and are the subordinates of the National Teacher of the Liao State." We need to make a lot of connections before we get there. Moreover, the name of their Meishan Seven Demons in the Liao Kingdom is too big, and even the emperor Yelujing values it very much, and if he shows goodwill to her, he is to show goodwill to Yelujing. ”

The housekeeper shook his head, still confused: "Then why, when she came, she avoided all the ladies in the family? Even the lady ......."

Cai Rong said: "This Liu Erniang is the second snake demon among the seven demons of Meishan. He has the most eccentric temperament. She pays great attention to her appearance. and regarded all the women in the world as her enemies, and she could never keep those who looked stronger than her. ”

The housekeeper said, "What about the one who looks worse than her?"

Cai Rong said: "As long as it's her kind-woman, she can't look down on it." Since I knew that she was coming, I didn't touch the moldy head, so I just avoided all the female dependents. ”

The housekeeper nodded, and shook his head again, as if he still didn't understand this woman, if all women were like this, it would have to be a big mess in the world.

Cai Rong said: "Since the rouge gouache purchased for Liu Erniang has been delivered, I will tell her that she will know and rejoice as soon as possible." ”

At this time, the Privy Council, several servants in charge, were checking the goods received from Jiangnan.

Yuwen Changfeng went to Hedong for the first time to press the dart. Although he is a figure in the rivers and lakes, he is still mainly engaged in the dart business. So all year round, if there is nothing else, sit in the Jiangnan Daqi Dart Shop.

When I came back to Hedong, I was fortunate to get acquainted with the Geng brothers and Wang Xin. Yuwen Changfeng was quite pleased. He expressed his admiration for Wang Xin's character and martial arts, and if he could become friends with him, then Hedong and his party would be worth the trip.

Yuwen Changfeng is only in charge of pressing the darts, he only takes the money and leaves, and the affairs of the owner's family have nothing to do with him. Now he just wants to go to Wang Xin's mansion to express his gratitude after finishing his work.

But now I see this privy council is quite strange, and the strange thing is not that the luxury of the courtyard house is extravagant, but that there is a faint fishy smell in the house.

He has been in the rivers and lakes for many years, and he has a kind of mental sensitivity, and he is also extremely sensitive. When he came to the house, the housekeeper said that the ladies in the house went to the temple to burn incense today. And now it's clear and sunny daylight, but for some reason, the yin in this house is extremely heavy.

While he was thinking about it, the servant of the steward had finished checking and handing him over, and the steward came out to say a few words to him and personally sent him out of the house.

Through the crescent moon gate, I saw a chamber, which seemed to be shrouded in mist, and it turned out that the yin and fishy qi in this house came from this chamber.

Yuwen Changfeng had already walked past the compartment, and he could only hear a coquettish smile coming from the compartment. This voice is extremely weak, and people with shallow internal strength will never be able to hear the sound in the house.
