The fox minister in the late Tang Dynasty

Chapter 319
'Climb up high branches. Tsk tsk, what a blessing. '

When the old steward muttered something, the glamorous woman on the way to the covered bridge lowered her head, looked around with beautiful eyes, and looked at the surrounding ponds and pavilions from the corner of her eye. She had long heard that Geng's Mansion was the largest mansion compound in the city, not even bigger than the Wang Mansion. Xiao, all the way in, she was finally convinced that Geng Qing, who had met several times, really held weight in the former Zhu Wen's heart.

At first, she thought that Geng Qing was nothing but a proud young man, and that she was only a staff member beside King Liang, and calling him brother and brother with King Liang was just a way for Zhu Wen to win people over. She had never treated that dark-complexioned man well after several encounters. His complexion, and even hearing that Zhang Suhe had an affair with him in the bed curtain, he felt a little contemptuous in his heart. As the daughter-in-law of Prince Liang, he actually climbed into the bed of an aide.

The world is impermanent.

After crossing the covered bridge and coming to the opposite side of the pond, Liu finally realized the true feeling contained in these four words when he saw the dozing figure lying on a grand teacher's chair.

The dark young man on the chair quietly walked to a position that was difficult for ordinary people to reach.

"My lord, I brought you an acquaintance." Jiuyu wanted to show Geng Qing face in front of others, and when they got along, they mostly called Geng Qing, which seemed close.

Hearing the sound, Geng Qing opened his eyes. The woman in front of him with low brows and obedient eyes was nervously stirring the corner of her clothes with her slender fingers, and then knelt down on the ground consciously.

"My concubine is from the Liu family, and I pay my respects to King Yong."

"Get up, Brother Jing and I have just met. I don't want to embarrass you when he is in prison today. You can get some money and leave later."

The woman knelt on the ground and did not move, tears rolled down her beautiful face, and she said in a choked voice: "I have no one to rely on, please take King Yong in, let me do whatever I want."

"Well."

The dazzling sunlight is a bit harsh on the eyes, Geng Qing somewhat knows about this woman's past, he didn't like it at first, but it's a pity to throw it away for being so beautiful, and this kind of character is sometimes used on certain occasions, it is It's very smooth, I have accepted more than 20 wives, one more?
After pondering for a moment, he got up and went to help the woman up. The moment he touched, Liu leaned into Geng Qing's arms. Geng Qing smiled and looked at Jiuyu who turned his face away, and patted the woman on the back.

"In this way, if you stay, you don't have to work like a servant, and you will be given some monthly money every month, and all your food and clothing will be spent on the house."

"Then I will take a bath and change clothes tonight."

"There's no need for that. I still have a lot of important things to do in the past few days." Geng Qing pulled her away, patted her on the shoulder, "Go ask the steward to buy you a room in the side wing for a while."

Mrs. Liu blinked her eyes charmingly, bowed to her petite and short body, took two steps and three steps with lotus steps and turned her head frequently, the spring color in her eyes made people's heart flutter.

"It's so enchanting." Geng Qing clicked his tongue twice.

"It's right to accept it, and throwing it outside is to benefit others."

Geng Qing glanced at Jiuyu, straightened his face, and said in a serious tone: "I'm not a thief, I just appreciate beautiful things." After saying this, Xinting walked to the covered bridge and looked at the The woman walked and danced briskly to chase the butterflies, as if her heart was full of joy. She didn't seem to care about her husband being imprisoned and her home broken.

Perhaps, in this age, many people are used to it. However, this "habit" is a terrible word for Geng Qing. Once people get used to it, they will become numb, and then they will have no concept of home and country, and no bottom line.

"Has Zhao Yushi been here?"

Walking to the atrium, Geng Qing suddenly said, came out of the palace, did not hear about him, thought he was frightened, while talking, the old steward of the mansion had come from the front yard, saying that Zhao Yushi next door invited him to the mansion .

Now regarding Geng Qinghe's status as King Heyong, Zhao Hongjun, who is inspecting the censor, is not even qualified to pass the government.

"This old Zhao is still worried about this." Li Cunxiao shook his head and smiled. He, Geng Qing, and Zhao Hongjun all came from Feihu County and worked together in the county government, so they could completely abandon their identities in terms of friendship.

"Go and have a look, this old fat man is probably going to run away."

As for Zhao Hongjun, Geng Qing knew each other more or less. The three of them chatted all the way and left the Geng Mansion, but after a few steps, they arrived next door. Sure enough, the Zhao Mansion was also busy, and all the belongings, large and small, were carried by strong servants. Get in the car, put the bits and pieces into the luggage.

Standing in the shade with a handkerchief, Zhao Hongjun kept wiping the sweat off his fat face, and told the servants who moved the furniture and porcelain vases to be careful! ''Slow down, slow down. ''If it breaks, ten months' money will be deducted from you'

He heard the steward say in his ear, "King Yong is here." Turning around quickly, a flattering smile appeared on the fat face, and he hurried up to meet him and was about to bow down, but was lifted up by Geng Qingxu.

"Why do you and I see each other, pack up things so early, and prepare to run away?"

"Would you invite King Yong to come here?" Zhao Hongjun saw the scene in the palace, and Geng Qing asked him to go to Khitan in the north. If he objected, he might be caught if he ran to the ends of the earth.

Regarding what Fat Yushi said, Geng Qing smiled and was silent for a moment: "When you arrive in Khitan, do you know what to do?"

"Just fool them, when did I let you down in this kind of thing?"

"Well, when the time comes, I will cooperate with you."

"King Yong, this is what you said. We must cooperate well. Khitan barbarians are not easy to mess with. Otherwise, Zhao's life will be lost." Zhao Hongjun thought of the environment in the north, and felt a little scared in his heart. The servant wearing a piece of flower porcelain jumped up anxiously, his frightened expression suddenly changed, and he pointed at him and shouted: "You, you, what I said just now, hold on tight, hold me tight, I'll get you if you fall!" kill you!"

Looking at him like this, Geng Qing was a little worried at first, but now he doesn't care.It's really dangerous to get there, this man can run faster than anyone else.

Still the kind that doesn't care about face.

"I don't know how many years you have been away, I will take pictures for you at home"

As soon as Geng Qing opened his mouth, Zhao Hongjun, who was directing the servants in front, turned his head and waved his hands again and again: "King Yong, don't say 'Your wife, I will raise her.' Such words, Zhao is afraid. I will take care of my family and take them to the north together. , don’t bother King Yong.”

Haha.

Apart from Geng Qing, Jiuyu and Li Cunxiao were all amused by these words, Geng Qing had a dark face, well, it couldn't be seen if it was dark, anyway, his face was dark, and he turned his head away uncomfortably.

'As I said, it's not Cao's thief, and everyone guards me like Cao's thief. '

Amidst the laughter, the two walked casually in the mansion, chatting about the journey to Khitan and the habits there, and asked Zhao Hongjun to write them down one by one, especially the few people Geng Qing knew, such as Yue Liduo and Yelu Like A Baoji, let him sort out the other party down, first draw close to the people below, and go up one by one.

After talking about this, they chatted about household chores. In the afternoon, all the things in the Zhao Mansion were packed into a truck, and only some simple furniture was left for Zhao Jing and his son. After all, they would continue to live in Luoyang.

"It's a long way to go to Khitan, now is a good time to hurry, so Zhao will go ahead!"

"I send you."

The other party went to the north for his own plan, and Geng Qing should see him off in person. After leaving Luoyang, looking at the long motorcade winding the official road and going away in the sunset, the man named Zhao Jing smiled: "Actually , these things are suitable for him."

"Run faster than anyone else." Geng Qing also smiled.

After sending Zhao Hongjun away, Geng Qing returned to Luoyang with Zhao Jing, and returned to the mansion near evening. The steward of the mansion said something in a low voice, and his face sank, and he went back to the bedroom, where a letter was placed.

It was delivered more than ten days ago. Because of Zhu Wen's funeral and Zhu Yougui's ascension to the throne, the post office suppressed unimportant letters and only recently reissued them.

Geng Qing sat quietly at the table for a while, then picked up the letter and opened it, it was from Chang'an, everything at home was fine, except that something happened in the northwest.

——Party people make chaos.
