The dark-bellied prime minister's cute wife

Chapter 165 Biting warmth

The young man lowered his eyes and stared at the fire on the muddy ground. The light of the fire was reflected in the clear eyes of the young man. He asked puzzledly, "So you like her?"

"How could I like her? Anyway, I have my own plan. What do you know, her background is much more complicated than you imagined." He slapped the boy on the back of the head, with a resolute face Staring at the fire for a while, the eagle-like eyes stared at the fire, and the eyes were cold.

"Really? Then you don't want to fall into it." The young man pulled out the firewood, and the smoke spread out in the room, condensing a kind of firewood smell that could never go away. He was already used to the smell. After living here for so long, I've already gotten used to it.

"Of course not. I only have that fairy in white in my heart. I don't know when I will meet again." He sighed, and carefully took out the square handkerchief, which was embroidered with two magnolia flowers. , the pattern of the magnolia flower is very beautiful, the pattern is clean and fairy-like, the plain white handkerchief is well protected by him, and it is held in his dark hand, forming a sharp contrast between black and white.

The boy stood up, patted the dust on his robe, and said calmly, "I'm going to the court."

"Study hard, don't waste your father's hard work." He looked at the young man who left with a stationery bag made of rags, his voice was cold and there was a faint chill.

At that time, Dugulian, the eldest son of the general's mansion, set up a separate family, but was later implicated in the murder case. The former prime minister joined hands with Yan Ke and Wen Chen to cut off the strong wings of the Dugu family. He was secretly protected by others, and living such a life now has sharpened a man's will even more.

"En. Goodbye, uncle." The young man paused, turned around and strode away.

Dugu Zhan lowered his eyes, playing with the firewood stick in his hand, until the wind and snow outside the window was getting bigger and bigger, he dropped the stick in his hand, strode out, and a few people who were hiding in the dark ran out, standing in front of Dugu Zhan In front of him: "General, everything is ready and you can leave the city."

"Let's go." He got on his horse, rode the horse and led a few followers all the way out of Jinling City. When passing by Tian Lanshan's courtyard, he glanced inexplicably. Things in the room staring at the room were messed up in the wind.What she originally bought were small items, why are there so many here suddenly?Ivory beds, plain curtains, eight-treasure glazed lamps, sapphire incense burners, sandalwood tables and chairs in the room, chaise longue chairs, soft and collapsed, a small garden with wooden stakes, a swing frame covered with snowflakes, and There was that little tool that had been filled with water and introduced into the kitchen, and the whole person was in a bad mood.

There are still many books in the bookcase upstairs. She sat on the chair in the living room and looked at the huge charcoal stove in the center. The kettle on the charcoal stove was also extraordinarily delicate, even The low chairs upstairs were still covered with white blankets, Tian Lanshan had the illusion that his home was being peeped by others.

She went around the room and opened the money box she hid under the bed. Not only was there no shortage of money, but there was also a handful of banknotes. Tian Lanshan stared at the banknotes and was in a mess.

If Yan Ke saw her like this, would he be laughing at her as a fool?Or are you laughing at her shit luck?Mr. Xiang is so elegant, the word shit, I'm afraid he won't say it at all, right?
Tian Lanshan sat in the room for a long time, when there was a knock on the door, the knock was out of rhythm: "Open the door! Open the door quickly, ward check! Open the door quickly, don't worry, hurry up. "

Tian Lanshan had no choice but to open the door, and the person who came was an official, probably because Yan Ke was the prime minister, so Tian Lanshan felt that all officials should be good.

"what happened?"

"What's the matter? Are you a new resident? We're going to give you a temporary household registration. For one person, it's 500 taels, but for you, it's 1000 taels." He rubbed his chin, looked at Tian Lanshan's robe, With a cold snort, she pushed her away and walked into the yard, and walked across the yard to the main house. A group of people stared at the money box that Tian Lanshan put on the table. The silver ticket in the box.

Tian Lanshan quickly covered the money box, and said to them, "1000 taels, right?"

"You are a woman, where did you get so much money? You must have done something inappropriate. You must be honest, otherwise, we brothers and sisters can only take you to the yamen." The person has a big belly, so fat that he can get oily when pinched, the sky is fading, holding the box, frowning slightly: "This is mine, it's not some illegal activity."

"Nonsense, I saw you sneaking out last night, and you haven't really brought her here? You guys, tie her up for me and take her to the yamen first." He waved his hand, and a group of people were about to come up After tying him up, an ordinary-looking young man stood up and said in a deep voice: "Boss, I'm afraid it's inappropriate? This girl has never done anything illegal. If she arrests someone rashly, it will be against the law of etiquette."

"Fa? In Jinling City, the magistrate is the Fa, and we are the Fa. Let me take him away." With a wave of his hand, he pushed the young man away, and the young man stood up again, standing in front of Tian Lanshan. He looks very elegant, although he holds a knife in his hand and wears the clothes of a yamen servant, but he looks more like a literati who is good at writing but not martial arts.

"May I ask if there will be a day in the Southern Jin law that people can be arrested without evidence?" He is tall and thin, with no calluses on his fingers. When he looks at these people, his back is straight. Get straight.

The people on the side tugged at the fat man, and said in a low voice: "Boss, this guy is called Li Jinhua, he is new here, and he doesn't know the rules. Let's train him when we go back, otherwise, he will really give himself to me." As a savior."

The fat man nodded: "Hit me hard, if you dare to spoil the Lord's way of making money, I think he doesn't want to mess around anymore."

The boss outside the door came in a hurry, and he was startled when he saw the servants in this room: "Oh, gentlemen, what's the matter?"

"Are you the boss here?" The fat man looked at him coldly, he was so arrogant that he couldn't show the integrity that an official should have.He is more like a businessman who has experienced a lot of wind and snow, with endless money and endless entertainment.

"Yes, yes, it's the young one. I don't know what's the matter? This is a newcomer. I don't know the rules. Please bear with me." He looked at the sky and said in a deep voice to her: "Ma'am, are you still in a daze?" What are you doing? Hurry up and apologize to the official, in the future..."

"Oh? Isn't it right? This seems to be the one who was beaten by Miss Tang at the gate of Xiangfu that day? I heard that it is the former wife of Xiangye." Someone in the crowd interjected, and Tian Lanshan's expression suddenly changed. She was stiff, her face was a little pale, the ex-wife... added the word ex, everything has undergone earth-shaking changes, what once belonged to her no longer belonged to her.

"I said, why is there so much money here? However, you didn't give you so much money after the prime minister divorced. Say, where did you get this money? Could it be that it is true, as the rumors say, that the watery flowers bloom at night?" Magistrate? Tsk tsk, I never thought you could earn so much money with such an ordinary face." The fat man looked at Tian Lanshan's dewy face. Underneath, this thin-skinned and tender-meat one is pretty good.

"Boss, what you said, she is the former wife of the prime minister, which man wouldn't want to give it a try?"

That Li Jinhua glared at this group of people, very angry: "When you become an official, you worry about your ruler and your people. You slander others because of rumors! Don't you know that you are also guilty!"

"New here, you don't know the rules, let's help you change it, beat me!" The fat man waved his hand, and the seven or eight people kicked Li Jinhua to the ground at that time, punching and kicking for a while. , Someone even took a chair and smashed it. If it wasn't for the high-quality chair, he would have picked it up and smashed people long ago.

The boss glanced at the box of money held in Tian Lanshan's hand, hurriedly grabbed a handful and stuffed it into the fat man's hand, and said with a smile: "Master, I have never met the former Mrs. Xiang, so I don't know." Now I know what Mrs. Xiang looks like, but I can't change her if I accept her rent. Please take care of her. It's not easy for this lady. You have a lot of adults, please do me a favor, and leave some for her. How do you like it?"

The fat man glanced at Tian Lanshan who was standing there, stuffed the handful of banknotes into his clothes, and said with a smile: "The boss is still sensible, what kind of Mrs. Xiang, who doesn't even understand personnel affairs, bah! Brothers, let's go!" .”

Tian Lanshan wanted to come forward to reason, but the boss hurriedly pressed Tian Lanshan: "Don't be impulsive."

"Should we just let them go like this? This is my money, how could they do it!!" If it was before, Wang Tianlan would not be able to kill them.

Li Jinhua slowly got up from the ground, he bowed slightly to Tian Lanshan, turned around to leave, Tian Lanshan said to him: "Just now, thank you, you are different from them, you will definitely be a good official in the future."

Li Jinhua lowered his eyes and smiled mockingly: "What about a good official? A good official is not as enjoyable as a corrupt official. I have no power or power, so even if I want to be a good official, it will not help. Maybe the road of being an official is not suitable for me. "He turned around and strode away from the small courtyard. Tian Lanshan stood where he was, and suddenly felt that the wind was a bit cold that night.

The boss glanced at her box that was full of broken silver, sighed, and said to her, "Money is an external possession after all, so don't take it too seriously. If you need anything in the future, just ask." Say, if I can help, I will definitely help you." He reached out to touch Tian Lanshan's hand, Tian Lanshan hugged the box, took two steps back, and said lightly, "Go back."

"Okay, I'll go back now. If you have anything to do, just tell me, I'm a good person, hahaha, then I'll go back first." He straightened his robe, turned and walked out, then There was a spring breeze on Zhang's face, not at all the calmness that someone should have when someone made trouble in his house.

He hurried out the door, turned a corner and bumped into the fat man. The fat man handed him some banknotes, his eyes were smiling so hard that he couldn't see the wind and snow clearly.
