Yizhi arrives

Chapter 14 Master is a Great Backer

Dimly heard someone talking, "My lord, this girl is fine, but she fainted from hunger because she hasn't eaten for a long time."

……

I barely opened my eyes to see what's going on, but my stomach made a loud "grunt" at this time, which proved the doctor's words, and immediately someone laughed.I had to close my eyes again and pretend I didn't know anything.

Rukong and Fat Zhixian were both in the room, besides the old doctor, there were also a few yamen servants.I just heard a voice like a spring breeze in the sky: "Amitabha, then please trouble the yamen kitchen to make a bowl of porridge for this girl. Although she is a bit naughty, it will not work if you don't give her something to eat." Several officials responded and left.

It turned out that I was just a naughty little girl in Rukong's eyes.

It's really not that I have poor mental endurance, so why did I faint when I heard the county magistrate was the first to report my name.Since last night, I have not eaten for a day and a night, not to mention that I am always on the road, full of fright and torture, exhausting so much physical strength, and when I get emotional, it is inevitable that there will be a time when the blood supply is insufficient.

"Master Rukong, this is the list of people who came to bribe in this election. The officials have accepted it according to your instructions. The amount has been arranged for you from large to small. Please look over it. Most of them want to open the back door and hope that their daughters will be chosen... Just the first one, I sent 1 taels of silver notes over here, but they only want her to be free." Fat Zhixian must have thought that I hadn't woken up yet, so he was talking in the room. Unobstructed.

So according to Fat Zhixian, Caixuan accepting bribes is actually allowed?Looking at the monk's indifferent appearance, how could he agree to such a nasty thing happening?I never believe he was doing it for the money.

1 taels of silver bills is really not an ordinary luxury.Just imagine, if my family can casually take out 1 taels of silver and be rich and honored naturally, why bother to ruin the freedom, youth and happiness of my children and send them to the palace to accompany an old man?
Just as I was about to hear Rukong's answer, I suddenly noticed that their eyes seemed to be on me. As soon as the chrysanthemum tightened, I couldn't help but straighten my whole body, for fear that I would be seen through by Rukong's piercing eyes.

"Master Rukong..." The magistrate's tone was tangled and embarrassed, "Do you think Song Xiaomi should be let go or not?"

Huh?As soon as I said this, I was quite shocked and realized: Could it be that Ji Yue sent me the 1 taels of silver notes? !

If this is the case, I will take back all the remarks made by the Hei family teacher before this. Ji Yue is a person who is closer and more important than my parents in this world.

"Amitabha, don't let this girl go. Magistrate, please return all the bribes received by the Yamen this time."

"why?"

"Does the magistrate want to get rid of his black hat because of the crime of accepting bribes?"

"Don't dare! I just want to ask your lord why you must choose this Song Xiaomi as a show girl. You see, she doesn't have much meat on her body. Even if she is raised for another two years, she may not be able to grow plump. Her appearance is fair, but her temper is like this. Ye, not to mention unknown background, even if elected into the palace, can the emperor like it? The meaning of the lower official is... Since her master cares about her so much, why not make their master and apprentice complete." Fat Zhixian said, I am a small heart I trembled a bit, and when he finished the series of hesitant words, I almost wanted to jump out of bed and kowtow three times to the magistrate, and praise him, he is really a parent official!

But Ruo didn't even think about it, and calmly replied to Fat Zhixian: "It is the blessing of the people that the county magistrate has the beauty of an adult. However, this girl has a reason not to be released, and I am sorry that the poor can't explain it." This monk, don't look at him On the surface, there is a group of kindness and kindness, but the bones are hard. He said that what is one thing can never become two.

I slapped the bed and got up. I was tired and didn't love it, and couldn't bear to listen to it.

Fat Zhixian said: "Oh, you are awake. The official has sent someone to invite your master. Tomorrow, all the beautiful women will leave, and there are two days before the Chinese New Year. Tonight, the yamen will pay for you and your family to have an early reunion let's eat."

"Leaving tomorrow?! How come so fast." First surprised (scared)... Wait, "Master, you said my master will come soon?" Another surprise (joyed).When I think of Ji Yue's handsome face, there are seeds of hope sprouting on the tip of my heart, as long as he comes.I'm not very old, and my brain is not good, but Ji Yue is a person who comes and goes in the wind and rain, with such a good brain, there is always a way.

Just at this time, Lao Wang came to report that Ji Yue had arrived.

Ji Yue appeared at the door, wearing a brocade robe embroidered with silver silk on a white background, a mink fur coat, and a black-haired jade crown, holding a box of my favorite cherry cake in his hand, his face was blown by the cold wind. It's like a clear and cold ice brick, like a snow fairy, handsome and handsome, but also makes people respectful and far away.

Perhaps the expression of anticipation on my face at this moment was too exaggerated. The first time he saw me, he never took the step that should have crossed the threshold immediately.

"Master!"

The frost on his face melted a corner, "Why did you make yourself so embarrassed?"

I remembered that Fat Zhixian pleaded with Rukong for me before, so I didn't tell Ji Yue that I was hungry, smiled ugly, and avoided talking about it.He was invited in by Fat Zhixian, and greeted Rukong. The two men had very different styles, but they were both peerless, and Fat Zhixian left first with a sense of humor.

Ji Yue glanced at Rukong, I knew he meant to ask why Rukong didn't leave yet.

Rukong stood there standing tall, standing still, and asked first: "Benefactor Ji, can you tell the poor monk about the life experience of this little benefactor?"

"Sorry, I don't know much about it."

"Then where did the benefactor get acquainted with the little benefactor?" Rukong had a very good attitude.

"In a ravine."

"Can you explain in more detail?" He persistently broke the casserole and asked to the end.

"I happened to pass through a valley 12 years ago, and met an abandoned baby. Seeing how pitiful he was, he accepted him as an apprentice."

"The little benefactor said that her parents died of strange illnesses, how could she be abandoned?"

Ji Yue has always been polite, generous and decent to outsiders. I don't know if he is a little angry today, but he can clearly feel his impatience and perfunctory towards Rukong.He said "Oh" casually, and added: "Her parents died beside her, it's no different from being abandoned."

I wanted to open my mouth to defend like nothing, but I was immediately glared back by Ji Yue's fierce eyes, and I could only curse myself in my heart for being worthless.Ji Yue used the excuse of saying goodbye to outsiders, and finally invited Rukong out of the room. Rukong left his family and repaid his grievances with kindness. Something greasy, the porridge is boiling in the kitchen, and someone will bring it over later..."

boom--!
The sound of the door was deafening, and the reverberation echoed around the beam.

"Master, how can you treat monks like this." After nightfall, it was a little colder outside, I wrapped the quilt on the bed around me, wrapped it into a ball, and sat cross-legged to watch Ji Yue.

Ji Yue hugged him with a disdainful smile, and said: "As a teacher, I didn't know that Ah Mi's taste is so special, and he likes to become a monk. It's really called elbowing out. It's in vain for a teacher to bear the pain of warming the best piece of Hetian in the jade shop." The jade was given to the county magistrate, and it was in vain."

Huh?
"Isn't it 1 taels of silver?"

Ji Yue became more and more disdainful, sniffing: "Send money to the teacher's association?"

Isn't he the one who gave the money? !
Ji Yue probably saw my hurt face and felt ashamed, so he changed his words and said: "1 taels of silver?! Just kidding, at this level, the teacher can give up to 5000 taels."

As a result, my whole heart, liver, spleen, lungs and kidneys were chilled and lifeless like a dead tree in the middle of winter.

I personally thought that there was no way for this master and apprentice to continue.

However, the ancients often said that there is a life in a desperate place, and the flowers are bright in the dark, which encourages us not to give up lightly, but to be full of hope in life.Ji Yue immediately handed me a piece of cherry cake, smiling more cunningly than a fox, only to hear him say: "Ami, don't worry, I've thought about it as a teacher, although the stupid monk can't do anything, but he sent you When you arrive in the capital, you will retire, and the future matters... the palace has the final say."

My eyes sparkled, "Master means...!"

He nodded, patted the quilt on my shoulder, and told me: "So for the time being, you just follow everyone to the capital obediently, and don't poke your ears to attract attention. The teacher will follow you all the way, and when we arrive in the capital, we will buy the palace. Eunuch in charge, it is difficult for others to be elected, but it is not easy for you to lose? You take the money first and play by ear."

I lowered my head and thought about it, and felt that Ji Yue's words were very reasonable except for the wrong word "dumb monk".There are tens of thousands of possibilities before the end of the matter. As long as the head of the condemned prisoner is on the guillotine, he can rob the execution ground at any time, right?So he took the silver ticket and ate a mouthful of cherry cake, and his spirit recovered a lot.I think, no matter how bad it is, make a fool of yourself in the palace, even if you lose your face and ruin your reputation, if you are free, you can throw away both.only--

"Master, look at what's going on with my feet!"

Those seven unidentified moles were always a thorn in my heart, and I couldn't get them out, so I felt very uncomfortable.

When the elders saw me taking off my socks, I looked like lightning and shooed away, with extremely disgusted expressions on their faces.I couldn't help but think of Rukong's good again.When Ji Yue took me away from Kou Yuan, he was already eight years old, and he had developed the habit of reading, writing, cooking, dressing, bathing, and taking care of himself, so he didn't need to worry about anything.

So he glanced at it and sighed: "You have so many moles on the soles of your feet, it's so weird." It seemed that I was born like this.

I was depressed, "This is not a mole, Master, can you see if I have been poisoned? Oh... Did you secretly poison me again while I was not paying attention?!" When he taught me how to use poison, he would secretly give it to me. I was poisoned and asked me to test the poison myself.

Ji Yue raised his face and gave a "cut", disdain to argue with me about what's there and what's not.Although most of the time he doesn't look like an ordinary master, he is still reliable when he looks serious. Shen Se asked me: "He was born suddenly?"

Nodding like smashing garlic.

"Stretch out your hand." Ji Yue ordered, and I obediently stretched out my hand.He looked at my palms first, then rolled up my sleeves, put his cold hand on my pulse, and examined me quietly for a while, his brows furrowed, and he didn't speak for a long time, only shaking his head.

I was very scared in my heart, afraid that he would say something bad about Yao Shi Wuling, who was dying soon.

"Master?"

He raised his eyes, his handsome face was colorless, and asked me: "When did you appear? Has anyone touched you recently?"

"I only saw it when I took off my shoes today, and I didn't see them when I washed my feet the day before yesterday!" I answered seriously. As for who touched me... "Master, what kind of touch do you mean? The kind that tears clothes or touches little hands." ?”

The blue veins on Ji Yue's forehead twitched there, and he shot a sharp look, I spread my hands and said helplessly: "Tang Xi and Ru Kong touched me today, and the yamen servant also touched me yesterday, counting the day before yesterday, Master is on my head She gave me a chestnut... Also, Ah Piao slept with me all night, and she touched me too!"

I couldn't figure it out. I hugged my feet and looked at it. Each mole was about the same size as a sesame seed. When put together, it looked like a cluster, not a ball like a sesame pancake. The shape of the string was a bit like a stick. The snake is a bit like a spoon, I didn't have a clue for a moment, and looked up at Ji Yue again.

"Where is Song Zhipiao?"

"...I don't know."

Ji Yue sneered, "Master, I seem to have told you the story of the farmer and the snake in the past, and now I deserve it." He obviously suspected that A Piao had tampered with me.The farmer held the snake, which was about to freeze to death, in his arms. The snake woke up and bit the farmer, and the farmer was poisoned to death just like that.Ah Piao also bit me like this, it was several times harder than when I betrayed her in court.It turned out that instead of repaying grievances with kindness, she repaid them tenfold.

"Master, what kind of poison is this?"

"As a teacher, I actually don't know."

"Then what enmity do you have with Song Zhipiao?"

"The teacher doesn't know her at all!"

……

That night, Ji Yue accompanied me to have a sumptuous dinner. He had a rare kind and gentle attitude. He gave me a lot of cloth dishes, said a lot of instructions, and gave me many opportunistic analogies. To put it bluntly, he is fundamental I don't believe my IQ can handle the draft.The most common sentence is, Ah Mi, you just need to come to Beijing obediently, and the teacher will take care of it for you.

When I said goodbye, I grabbed Ji Yue's sleeve, reluctantly.It was the first time to say something sensational to him, "Master, Song Xiaomi feels very lucky to be your disciple."

Ji Yue's expression at that moment was a little silly, and he didn't even feel that a plum blossom was stained on the sable fur, so he stood in the snow, dazed.It just so happened that the winter snow was falling again, and it was a bit cold and quiet under the moonlight. Ji Yue's once-glamour, blended with the wind, flowers, snow and moon, was very beautiful.

That night I had a dream. I dreamed that when I was five years old, Zhao Xiaocong and I were fighting in the Intoxicated Dongfeng Temple. Kou Yuan was trying to persuade the two of us to fight. At this time, a man in black suddenly rushed in and smashed the temple with his palm. The most expensive table in the house, threatened us murderously: "Hand me over."

Kou Yuan pushed Zhao Xiaocong and me behind, only to hear him answer calmly: "Who?"

I was just astonished when the man in black approached me silently, and was about to grab me. The scene in my dream was just like reality. I screamed and woke up suddenly—"The leader of the demon sect doesn't want to catch me!" !"

Sweating all over.
