Yipin Qiao Nongfei

Chapter 102
When Liang Yuan left the imperial study room, His Majesty the Emperor stood up from the dragon chair, stretched himself, and said with a smile to himself: "Nanyang, Kaihai, Navy... These things are enough for him. He has something to do , is less likely to be distracted than doing nothing well.”

The eunuch beside him, Zeng Yu, smiled and said: "Even so, the emperor must not completely let go of his guard, as the saying goes, one must be on guard against others..."

Before finishing speaking, the emperor shook his head and sighed: "You haven't understood the assassination? He has already risked his life to open the sea. His ambition is the same as the ambition of the three of us back then. This For one thing, I am not as good as him, and Jiang Louyue is not as good as him."

Zeng Yu knew that the emperor was now less wary of Liang Yuan, and this was not a bad thing. Although Mr. Liang is a hero, he has been loyal and capable for so many years. Wouldn't it be good for a good story about a confidant to stay in history?

What he cared about was another matter, because he bent down to report: "Your Majesty, before Mr. Liang came, the slave got the news, and before he had time to tell you, he was interrupted by Mr. Liang."

"Oh? What's the matter?"

"It was the assassination case of Mr. Liang in Daxing County earlier. This was originally set up by Mr. Liang, but just now the servant overheard Chen Huwei mentioning that the number of assassins' martial arts far exceeded expectations at that time. Mr. Liang was once in danger and rescued him. It was a young man surnamed Shen. At that time, there was a girl disguised as a man beside them. The most bizarre thing was that after the young man surnamed Shen was wounded, someone secretly shot and killed several assassins with a single round of hidden weapons..."

"Hidden weapon?" The emperor frowned: "Liang Yuan actually has such a guard?"

"If it's Mr. Liang's guard, it seems...it's too late to act." Zeng Yu looked at the emperor's face, and cautiously said: "Your Majesty, the boy's surname is Shen..."

The emperor's body froze suddenly, and one hand was clenched into a fist on the table. Zeng Yu lowered his head, not daring to take a breath. After a long while, he heard what seemed to be a long breath from the side beside him: "Hidden weapon? Zhuo Shen's cavalry!" Shooting and fisting skills are unparalleled, I never heard that he is also so good with concealed weapons... Could it be... Could it be..."

Could it be that after two words, there was no more text, and after a long time, Zeng Yufang heard the emperor say in a deep voice: "You send your most confidant people to investigate this matter quietly, just check the current situation of the young man, there is no need to go deeper."

"Yes." Zeng Yu agreed, knowing that this matter must be handled carefully, it seems that the emperor does not want to put too much effort into it now.

"Qiu, I really admire you. If it weren't for you, who would have known that those wild flowers and weeds that bloomed on the side of the road could be sold for money? It's only been three days, and I have another string of money in my hand, although it is not as good as beets. Much more, that's something I didn't even dare to think about before, you don't know how happy Eldest Sister and Hua Xiang are."

"It's spring now, and there are few available. In autumn, there will be more good things, but we don't have to touch our hands. Let the sisters in the village go. We have enough beets."

"Yeah." Su Wanxia nodded: "By the way, the last time my aunt went to the city with you, did something happen? Why did she come back and see that her eyes are swollen? It seems like she cried a lot."

"What can you do if you go to the city with me?" Su Wanqiu said nonchalantly, "It's just meeting a fellow villager from the past. As the saying goes, when a fellow villager sees a fellow villager, his tears are watery, but his eyes are swollen from crying."

While talking, he clapped his hands and stood up: "Okay, put these clothes to dry, I have to go to the field to have a look, these days thanks to the help of my fourth brother, otherwise I will take everyone to pick spices and herbs, I have to go to the city to find a market, so I can't care about it."

"The fourth brother is really good." Su Wanxia also felt the same way, picked up a piece of clothes to hang on the pole, and said in a low voice: "I wonder how the three uncles and three aunts can give birth to four brothers and four sisters." Such a child."

"This is called good bamboo shoots out of bad..."

Su Wanqiu laughed out loud, and before he could finish speaking, he saw Su Yunxu coming out of the third room, so he called out: "Fourth brother, do you have anything to do later? If you have nothing to do, go to the field with me."

"it is good."

Su Yunxu agreed, but his emotions were not too high.Su Wanqiu was wondering, so she heard her sister whisper: "Go to the field with fourth brother, I'll dry the rest of the clothes, fourth brother seems to have something on his mind."

"Okay." Su Wanqiu nodded, wiped his hands on his clothes, straightened his clothes, and left the house with Su Yunxu.

Outside the street gate, seeing Su Yunxu with his head down listless, she grabbed the younger brother's arm and asked wonderingly, "What's wrong? The Dragon Boat Festival hasn't arrived yet, and you've turned into an eggplant beaten by Shuang. Is it because you're helping me?" , so the third uncle and the third aunt scolded you?"

"How is that possible?" Su Yunxu shook his head: "I'm not helping for nothing. The third sister gave me pocket money from time to time, and promised my parents that the beet harvest will be harvested after autumn, and I have a share. It's too late for them to force me to help. Scold me for this."

"What's the matter?" Su Wanqiu rubbed his chin, and suddenly he had a flash of inspiration: "Is there a girl you like? I'm sorry to say? It's okay, you tell the third sister... Uh, okay, if you don't have it, you don't have it, don't you Look at me like that."

Although he didn't guess right, this trick had the effect of a little surprise. Perhaps Su Yunxu was afraid that she would have more absurd guesses, so he didn't feel sad, so he told her softly: "Sister, since last year, I will earn money by following you." I spent nearly ten pennies, but now... I don’t have a penny on hand. The day before yesterday you gave me [-] coins in pocket money, but my mother took it away, saying that she was afraid that my child would spend it randomly, so she wanted to collect it for me. Get up and save up for me to marry a wife."

Su Wanqiu: ...

Su Yunxu sighed: "I'm not blaming them, but I just feel that... everyone in the family has money now, but my sister and I don't have any money. Usually, brothers and sisters buy snacks, and we have no money." Please return..."

"What? Even the fourth sister's pocket money was taken away?"

"Ah... um."

Su Yunxu nodded blankly, only to see the corners of Third Sister's mouth twitch twice: "What is the reason for Fourth Sister's pocket money? Save her dowry?"

Su Yunxu's eyes widened: "Third Sister, did you hear everything?"

The corner of Su Wanqiu's mouth continued to twitch: "I guessed it all."

Su Yunxu: ...

"If you want to talk about the third uncle and the third aunt..."

The words of complaint were already on the lips, Su Wanqiu remembered that the two were the younger brother's biological parents after all, so she swallowed it back and choked out a sentence: "They really can do it."

Su Yunxu smiled wryly: "But it's impossible for my parents not to give up any money."

"Some money is nothing, and they are your parents. But there are a lot of them, you can't have both. They take your money, and they will always give you some benefits, such as..."

Su Wanqiu made a decision almost instantly: Instead of spending energy to win over a couple who are more frivolous and snobbish, it is better to cultivate another talker, grab the class and seize power, starting from the young man in front of him.
