son-in-law

Chapter 875
Sunset and evening glow, sparrows fly in flocks.

King Qin returned home and sat in the Xiaofeng Pavilion, feeling that the atmosphere in the room was not right.

Judging by Tang Linger's gloomy face, it seemed that something had happened.

Ask Tang Ling'er, Tang Ling'er only said that King Qin should care about state affairs and not be distracted by family affairs.

She didn't say anything, so Su Yu went downstairs to ask Lin Wan.

Lin Wan said with a distressed face: In the afternoon, Ximen side concubine will go out.The princess asked, why is Wang Xiu not around?The side concubine said that Wang Xiu had a stomachache and rested.The princess asked why she went out again?The side concubine said that she was going to play polo.The princess asked, where to fight?With whom?The side concubine said, go to Lidefang, and go with her natal nephew Ximen Guan and others.The princess said, since she is married to the king of Qin, how can she often go back to her mother's house?The side concubine was very displeased and quarreled with the princess.

It's worth mentioning that Tang Ling'er wasn't making trouble out of no reason, and women from the Liang Dynasty really didn't just go back to their mother's house casually.

If you want to go back to your natal family, you have to prepare for the three rituals of returning home, and your natal family will send younger siblings to pick them up.

Because playing a game of polo required so many things to be prepared, Ximen Wanting couldn't accept it, so she played a temper tantrum.

Su Yu felt that it was right to support the concubine. Although Tang Ling'er was not as well-behaved as Feng Yu and Kong Ting, she was the prestige of the royal family and the benchmark of all women.

It was also heard that someone heard Ximen Wanting swearing at the street.

Su Yu felt that he should come forward and teach Ximen Wanting a lesson, which was more appropriate than Tang Linger's step forward.But when Su Yu walked to the small west courtyard, he saw Ximen Wanting, Wang Dang, and Wang Xiu walking towards him, saying that he wanted to apologize to the princess.

Seeing Ximen Wanting's awkward expression, she didn't seem to be apologizing, but it was probably the result of the persuasion of the little eunuch Wang Dang and the big maid Wang Xiu.Su Yu was very satisfied, and walked up to Ximen Wanting to praise her a few times until she had a smile on her face.

Su Yu felt that this was a good sign, but he should go further and continue to weaken the conflict between the side concubine and the princess in terms of rules.So at dinner, Su Yu mentioned that Cao Yuzan's intelligence work was doing very well, while Qin Palace was relatively weak.Su Yu emphasized that he is very busy now and has no time to take care of these things, and Princess Tang is in charge of housework and has to manage so many things in Qinghuafang, so the king decided to let Ximen Wanting handle confidential information in the East Bieyuan and be responsible for intelligence collection Work.

Tang Linger agreed.

In fact, for Tang Linger, this can be regarded as abdication of some responsibilities, and she will not have to worry about it in the future.When someone asks her why your concubine always goes out, she can come up with a reason to keep her tongue shut.After all, it was King Qin's idea.

After dinner, King Kang's righteous daughter Zhao Ying came to the door, and Su Yu met her on the first floor of Xiaofeng Pavilion.

Tang Linger was busy, so she didn't come to see Zhao Ying. It was Ximen Wanting who accompanied Su Yu to meet the guests.

"Congratulations to King Qin for getting revenge, but the leader of the bandit monk has not been arrested yet, I wonder if King Qin intends to continue the investigation." Zhao Ying said in a businesslike manner.

Su Yu said with certainty: "Of course we need to investigate."

Zhao Ying asked, "Is Matthew still in charge?"

Su Yu nodded: "Wanting and Matthew will investigate separately. Any team will notify you if they find any news."

Zhao Ying raised her eyebrows. She seemed to want to ask why they had to be investigated separately, but she got up and left without asking.

Ximen Wanting sat beside her eating melon seeds, and Su Yu remembered Cao Yuhan's words in the afternoon.Cao Yuzan said that Concubine Feng was not playing tricks, so who could Concubine Feng be working for?
Now the biggest suspect is of course Kang Wang Zhaodi, but it is not ruled out that Geng Wang Zhao Zhunyang has violated the law.

Cheng Kun followed the old monk with white beard back then, so this Hengshan demon nun should also be contacted by the old monk with white beard.Su Yu suspected that this white-bearded old monk was one of the aides of King Geng's mansion, and King Geng was in the same line as King Kang, and now King Kang's righteous daughter Zhao Ying always came to King Qin's mansion to seek cooperation. Does King Kang know about this?
If King Kang knew about it and allowed Zhao Ying to search for this old man with a white beard everywhere, what did he mean?
Could it be that King Kang thought that Zhao Ying would never find the old man with the white beard?Or is it that Zhao Yingben is the smoke bomb arranged by Kang Wang next to Su Yu?
"Zhao Ying is unreliable, and you cannot share deep information with her." Su Yu whispered: "You should also be cautious about the information she provides you, and don't go there in person."

Ximen Wanting spit out a piece of melon seeds: "Brother said, the one who wants to harm King Qin now is King Kang. On the surface, King Kang will never admit it, so he needs to find a puppet. It used to be Concubine Feng, but now that Concubine has collapsed, replace him with a puppet." Be that old man with the white beard."

The brother in her mouth refers to Ximen Zhensen.

Chu Guogong's judgment is decisive, maybe there is some basis for it?
Su Yu felt that Ximen Zhensen's thinking was very clear, and Ximen Wanting could follow this thinking to investigate further.And Matthew followed another way of thinking to check.

Su Yu also felt that if things were really as Ximen Zhensen said, it could be regarded as Ximen Zhensen showing his favor to King Qin through his sister.Of course, on the surface, Ximen Zhensen and the King of Qin have no relationship because they belong to different factions.

In this way, it is even more necessary for Ximen Wanting to run outside.

But letting Ximen Wanting go home like this is also a double-edged sword, because Su Yu can't guarantee that Ximen Wanting won't reveal some news about Prince Qin's residence to her brother.In other words, Ximen Wanting cannot be allowed to know too deep a secret.For example, the content of the secret conversation between Su Yu and the Queen Mother, and the content of the secret conversation with Tang Zhen.

Afterwards, Qin Wang and Ximen Wanting played chess on the first floor of Xiaofeng Pavilion. The two stinky chess baskets were evenly matched, and the fight was very enjoyable.Su Yu prefers to play chess, most people can't beat him, but he has no research on Go, just come down casually to relieve boredom.

……

Zhengyang noon.

South City.

Ximen Wanting's four big horses stopped at the entrance of the Sifanghui. Soon after, the concubine Wang Fangfei in Huafu walked out of the car door, and before she got out of the car, she stretched her waist without image burden.The mouth opened and closed, and the slender eyes looked sleepy, as if she had just taken a nap in the car.

She came here in accordance with King Qin's request, through the Quartet Association to strengthen the investigation of Jianghu. At the same time, Matthew went to Beishi to find Tang Lian.In fact, the areas of investigation of the two areas overlap, but Su Yu will not give up any chance to find out the old man with white beard.In addition, Su Yu learned from Suzaku that the Hengshan demon nun is very difficult to deal with.

"Miss Nineteen is here, I'm not far away to welcome you. Cough cough." Xiao Jingshan, the head of the Sifanghui sect, also greeted him with his sickly body.

"Hey! From now on, call me Concubine Wang." Ximen Wanting pinched her waist and looked Xiao Jingshan up and down: "Are you seriously ill, have you seen the imperial physician?"

"Cough, doctor Wang said that this old man is not cured, and he can live for half a year at most." Xiao Jingshan smiled bitterly.

"Don't listen to him fart." Ximen Wanting said: "Tomorrow, I'll let Doctor Li of Lidefang show you."

"Oh, thank you Nineteen..., oh thank you, Concubine Wang."

Among Ximen Wanting's many masters is Xiao Zhongshan, the old sect master of the Sifanghui, and the elder brother of Xiao Jingshan, the current sect master.

Xiao Jingshan's tuberculosis is already very serious, and the affairs of the guild are basically handed over to two daughters, one is Xiao Xuan who won the meritorious memorial archway with Yan Beiming, and the other is Xiao Qing who encouraged Tan Qin'er to snatch the marriage.

To say that the Quartet Club has really suffered a lot of fate in the past few years. First, some people were forcibly recruited by the Jinyiwei, including Xiao Chong and a group of masters.As a result, Jin Yiwei sacrificed a lot of people when he handed over the bad Mohists.Xiao Chong survived by luck, and later, in order to better honor the Queen Mother, he went to the Ministry of Internal Affairs and was stabbed.As a result, he offended Zhang Mi, and was stabbed by Zhang Mi again, and died.

Later, the Sifanghui was bloodbathed by Chu Wuba again. Xiao Bao, the young sect leader known as the "little overlord", and Feng Chan, the second head of the "old sword and not old", were both killed. Since then, the Sifanghui's strength has declined greatly.Otherwise, it would not be the turn of the two daughters to take care of the gang, and I always feel that women are not in charge of the family.

It is said that Xiao Jingshan is thinking about where to recruit two son-in-laws who are good at martial arts, but after all, since they are masters, how can they be willing to be son-in-laws.Later Xiao Jingshan said that if he really is a master, he can let his son-in-law keep his surname, and he can also keep a son with his surname.This state can be called semi-superfluous.

As soon as these words came out, although there were quite a few people who came to ask for help, their martial arts were too ordinary, and they really worried the old sect master.

Ximen Wanting said that there are many descendants of distant relatives of the Ximen family in Lidefang, who are living a miserable life, but there are a few who have practiced martial arts since childhood, so hurry up and ask them, if they want to get married, my concubine is willing to be a matchmaker.

Soon the two talked about the Hengshan old nun, Xiao Jingshan frowned and said: "Is this old evil nun still alive? Speaking of which, she is over 70 years old this year. She doesn't know how to accumulate virtue at this age, and she is determined to go to hell. "

Ximen Wanting raised her eyebrows: "Master Xiao knows this person?"

"I don't know, but I've heard of it."

Ximen Wanting raised her legs: "Let's hear it."

Xiao Jingshan cleared his throat: "No one knows the real name of the Hengshan demon nun, but the Dharma name is 'Wuchen'. She learned from Master Jingci, the seventh generation head of the Hengshan School. In her early years, she specialized in medicine. The teacher went down the mountain to participate in the Taihu Sword Discussion. When he met a handsome young student, he felt like returning to the vulgar, so he talked to the teacher about it. At that time, the teacher was unfavorable in the martial arts competition, and he was in a bad mood. He strictly refused. He said, take you down the mountain once It moved all hearts, the shame of the sect. From then on, she had evil thoughts in her heart, and she returned to Hengshan to steal the Buddhist scriptures and banned the martial arts "Suzaku Zhenjing·Bone Dry Chapter". At the age of 20, she practiced demon skills and forced Jing Cishi Tai gave up her position as head and expelled her. Shi Tai was murdered halfway down the mountain, and died of demon kung fu. Knowing that someone practiced demon kung fu, the new four masters of the Southern Jin Dynasty gathered in Hengshan to force her to abolish herself Martial arts. Unexpectedly, she escaped from Hengshan in the middle of the night. After that, she collected the other four "Suzaku Sutra" and took revenge on the four masters. As a result, two of the four masters died in that session, and the other two escaped. One of them was Cheng Kun."

Ximen Wanting frowned: "In other words, she is better than Cheng Kun."
