Everyone Knows I am a Good Man

This time the emperor arranged the arrangement nearby. Anyway, he didn't even think about giving money. He didn't look for anyone, even because he knew that he had arranged for people to give food if they didn't give money in the past, so he found someone who was not pleasing to his eyes.

And the person he dislikes is often a good one.

The general's surname was Zheng, and he was a military commander from generation to generation. When the first emperor was still alive, his family was very beautiful.

Later, when the emperor came to power, he could only stay at the border, and live the bitter days of not giving money or food to the court, and trying hard to eat and drink by himself.

The emperor didn't feel that this was wrong with the Zheng family, who had kept the royal family for countless times. Although the Zheng family never stood in line, this generation of General Zheng had a good relationship with the eldest prince.

Even if General Zheng had a sense of measure, at most he would only say two or three sentences when he was young, and there would be nothing beside him, but for the emperor, it was already merciful to send people to the border instead of killing them.

When the imperial decree arrived, General Zheng shut himself in the room and scolded him.

Everyone knows who the curse is, but it can't be put on the surface, so I can only watch General Zheng smash the table angrily. Finally, when he is out of anger, he still has to pinch his nose to check the route, pack up and take people to support.

To support the people of Gezhou, no one disagrees.

But in reality a very big problem posed before them: no food.

Based on the current food in their barracks, it would be good to be able to support Gezhou.

Even if their soldiers are good, but clever women can't cook without rice, can't eat enough, they can't rely on a lot of perseverance.

After checking the remaining money and food in the barracks, General Zheng shut himself up in the room and scolded him all afternoon.

The worst thing in the world is this.

The one above is a mediocre, but as his courtier, you still have to obey his instructions, otherwise, you will not even be able to keep the lives of the soldiers under your hands.

There is no food, I can only make up.

General Zheng is a high-ranking officer. You and my wife will have to take out some of them, but they have been at the border for so long, and there is so much money in their hands. Even if everyone joins together, the sum is not enough. .

The accountant who manages these is scratching his head, wishing that food will fall from the sky.

As a result, on the second day, a group of food really arrived in the barracks.

When a cart of food was unloaded from the cart, General Zheng couldn't wait to hold the leg of the cart and shout that Tathagata Buddha is really blessed by the Buddha.

Before these soldiers recovered from this huge surprise, they listened to the leader of the team saying: "Not only is our team, there is a team behind. There is more food than us, and we are all quick to go. On the way, unfortunately, two of their cars broke down yesterday, and there was nowhere to buy new ones in the wilderness, so let us come first, wait until the battalion commander, and then bother the general to pick it up."

Damn!

This is really another village, and God has opened his eyes.

General Zheng personally took the people and brought out the food brigade trapped in the wilderness.

This night, the whole camp had a rare meal.

General Zheng, while sitting in his own account, fell silent as he watched the letter in front of him.

"and so……"

The general, who has always been a rough man outside, is not particular about anything and has no ambitions, and asked in a deep voice the person standing opposite him respectfully: "Your master, do you want me to help him?"

The man replied respectfully: "The general's affairs are busy. How can my master bother you? I just want to ask the military to stop him when he needs help."

General Zheng was silent for a while.

"My Zheng family has been loyal for generations. I can't do this. Please take these grains back. I dare not take these grains."

The person sent by Ji Changze had long anticipated that he would react like this, and only followed his master’s instructions: "You don’t have to be like this, the grown-ups are not for the grown-ups. This is for being sent by your majesty to fight and kill the enemy. Soldiers, even if the adults don’t help this, we won’t take away the food."

"My master knows what the general is worried about, please rest assured that what the master wants to do is not what you think."

"Isn't it?"

General Zheng smiled in disbelief: "If the throne is so tempting, if he has a chance, will he not?"

Even he himself can't say that he has no feeling for the throne. If it were not for the Zheng family to be loyal ministers for generations, and to maintain the family's reputation, maybe he could really not help but get the dog emperor to sit down by himself.

"The general is not my master, how can he know what my master wants?"

"Small resigned."

The food deliverer is gone.

General Zheng was sitting alone in the camp, and he could hear the laughter from outside, because it was rare for everyone to be full today. The atmosphere in the barracks was very good. It was so late and they gathered together to have a fire.

He quietly looked at the letter on the table, got up and threw the letter into the brazier, watching it burn a little bit.

In the rising flame, he seemed to see himself when he was young.

At that time, his father hadn't died yet, and he had just started to learn Chinese characters. His father held his hand and taught him how to write loyalty to the emperor and serve the country, stroke by stroke.

He has been doing it, but the person on the throne is not worthy of him to sit like this.

Their Zheng family protects Mingjun and protects the people.

Not a mediocre emperor.

General Zheng sat alone in the camp, until the laughter and laughter faded away, until the candles in the room burned out, and the camp was dark. He sat stiffly all night in this darkness.

In the early morning of the second day, when the sun outside came in, General Zheng moved.

He suddenly thought of what the man said last night.

Ji Changze doesn't want the throne?

Then what is he trying to do this?

Jifu

--Snapped!

When the tea cup fell, Li Ziqian's always faint expression was rarely contaminated with anxiety, and nervously grabbed Mother Xu's hand and asked: "But it's true? Did Hu really hit Gezhou?"

Seeing her pale, Mother Xu sighed and nodded.

Li Ziqian looked in a trance.

If so, if there is something wrong with Liu Shengyan, Mrs. Liu and Liu Leping, what should they do?

"Madam, don't worry too much. Your Majesty has already ordered the dispatch of troops to rescue."

Mother Xu patted Li Ziqian's hand, and calmed her warmly: "Master Liu has always been lucky, and it would be nice if I want to come this time."

However, Li Ziqian could not be comforted, even her face turned pale again.

Hu people besieged the city, and the city has just suffered a famine. There must be not much food. Although there is food for disaster relief, the city is surrounded and can only sit and eat.

In this way, the food will not last long, and some people will starve to death in the city.

Even if reinforcements came and rescued people, the lives of the people trapped in the city who starved to death still need people to carry them out.

According to today's temperament, Liu Shengyan is 80%.

If he is guilty...

Li Ziqian shook her body and almost couldn't stand firmly. Mother Xu hurriedly supported her: "Madam."

"Prepare the car and go to Liu Mansion."

"Madam, if you go, will you make the master suspicious?"

After all, Ji Changze has always had a deep heart, once Li Ziqian showed something wrong, he would probably see something from her words and deeds.

Li Ziqian also knows this, but now she can't take much care of it.

She also knows about the situation of Liu's family. If the news of Liu Shengyan's trapping goes back, regardless of how sad Mrs. Liu is, the Liu family will definitely take the opportunity to abuse them.

In addition, the current Liu Shengyan family who is keen to shake the pot, as the family of Liu Shengyan who is likely to be thrown the pot, must make preparations early.

At least...can't really stand and wait for death.

"Take my savings and prepare the car now. If Ji Changze asks, he will say that I have heard about the Liu family and worry that Mrs. Liu will not be able to hold it, so I will go to see her."

Fortunately, she and Mrs. Liu are close friends in the boudoir. After so many years, she has only seen Mrs. Liu. This is not so abrupt.

In Liu Fuzhong, except for the small courtyard of Liu Shengyan's house, the atmosphere is pretty good.

After all, Liu Shengyan was not born to the old lady. If he weren't for an official, he would receive a monthly salary, and the old lady would not let him live in the house.

Now that he is in trouble, the old lady can't wait to set off firecrackers to celebrate, how could she be sad for this concubine.

She is really happy.

The old lady doesn’t like concubines, but her dislike is not just telling her husband "I don’t like concubines, don’t accept concubines", but she pretends to be generous to her husband again and again, and then waits for them to have a son. , And then use the means to make these poor children "accidentally" die.

Liu Shengyan's mother was also a good daughter. After she was favored by the old lady, the old lady immediately helped him to recruit people virtuously.

After that, as soon as Liu Shengyan was born, the old lady repeated the same tricks, doing various tricks to kill the concubine.

It's just that Liu Shengyan was well protected by his mother, and Liu Shengyan himself was lucky. After so many years, the old lady never succeeded.

Finally, relying on filial piety to suppress people from leaving, I thought Liu Shengyan would be depressed and uncomfortable, but it didn't happen.

Liu Shengyan, a big-hearted man, closed the door of the yard and lived his own life in the same way.

On the contrary, it was the reputation of the old lady herself, because of this move, most of it was ruined.

She only hated her concubine. After so many years, those hatreds turned into hatred. Even Liu Shengyan's wife and a pair of children were on her hatred list.

This time Liu Shengyan’s accident, she immediately called Madam Liu and Liu Leping over, "sadly" informed them of the bad news, and "kindly" comforted them not to be afraid. It doesn't matter if the Hu people are killed, the Liu Mansion will still take care of their widows and orphans.

Of course, it also includes Mrs. Liu's dowry and the rare farewell gift from Master Ji several times.

The old lady almost didn't laugh out loud.

After waiting for so long, it is not that she waited until this day.

It's strange that Gezhou's small broken land was besieged by the Huren.

If Mrs. Liu loses her husband, their family must live in the mansion before her son is married.

At that time, without Liu Shengyan to support them, the money is still not allowed to choose.

The old lady became more and more beautiful. She smiled and told the people next to her: "Sheng Yan, the child is trapped, and Leping must be sad for her father. Go, let the young ladies visit her sister and comfort her."

She knew what kind of temperament her granddaughters were. At this time, she took advantage of Liu Leping's patron to let them go. Naturally, the idea was to let them take the opportunity to search for something.

They are all from sisters and sisters, what's wrong with giving something.

Mrs. Liu is an elder, can she still reprimand these juniors?

She didn't believe that Liu Shengyan could still have good luck this time and survive the catastrophe.

The old lady was just so angry in her heart. When she thought of this, she suddenly stiffened and remembered all the things she had done before.

It should be... not so?

When Liu Shengyan walked along this road, he met all the nobles and things, and he couldn't be the last. Let's jump out of the nobles.

She is suffering from gains and losses here, but Mrs. Liu over there is quite calm, and immediately asks the girl to pack up the valuables when she returns, lest other people come here to fish in troubled waters.

Seeing that Liu Leping's eyes were red, she still had to be strong. Madam Liu felt sorry for her daughter and hugged her in her arms to coax her: "Don't be afraid, nothing will happen."

She was worried about the old lady taking advantage of Liu Shengyan’s accident. She gritted her teeth and said, "Remember, if something happens while I am away, if you can’t help it, go to Ji’s house to see Mrs. Ji, she will definitely help. your."

Liu Leping nodded obediently: "Mother, I'm not afraid, Daddy will be fine, I know him."

Madam Liu's tears fell, and she nodded.

"Yeah, your father will be fine."

It's just that in my heart, I still plan for the worst.

At that time, it is better to leave Leping and her son to Cici to take care of them. I am afraid she will not be able to take care of them at that time.

Mrs. Liu also knows that her master has always been lucky.

But every time something big happened, someone suddenly came out to protect him in a daze.

But this time, who else in the Manchu Dynasty can keep Liu Shengyan?

Ji Changze is fine, but Madam Liu doesn't believe that Ji Changze is willing to make a move.

What's more, this matter is not that simple. Even if Ji Changze really wants to keep Liu Shengyan, he still has to see what his Majesty means.

Madam Liu hugged her daughter tightly.

"Don't be afraid, mother will protect you."

***

Li Ziqian walked in a hurry, and there was still someone she believed in the mansion to help watch Ji Changze's movement, so she didn't take Mother Xu, only Peach Blossom.

Although the car was called in a hurry, it came quickly, and there was a thick cushion in the car. The driver heard Li Ziqian's destination and drove away immediately.

Mother Xu stood by the side door, craned her neck to watch the carriage slowly leave, raised her hand and wiped her tears with her sleeve.

If something really happened, Mrs. Liu and Miss Leping could be regarded as one of the few pillars of Li Ziqian in these years. No matter which one of them had an accident, it would be bad news for Li Ziqian.

If there is an accident for both of them, the lady, I am afraid that she will not survive.

All these years, the wife was living on one breath. The only thing she thought about was the two relatives of the old lady and Miss Leping in Li's house. If something happened, she would definitely not be able to hold it.

Mother Xu became more and more afraid as she thought about it, put her hands together, and muttered to pray: "I only ask the Supreme Bodhisattva to bless Master Liu safe and sound."

Suddenly, a voice came from the side, and said lightly: "Reassure, Liu Shengyan will return safely."

Mother Xu was so scared that she almost didn't jump up, her heart throbbed and turned her head quickly, and when she saw who was standing behind her, she almost didn't stop beating directly.

"Old, sir..."

Although Ji Changze was talking to her, he saw the direction that the carriage was leaving. He waited until the carriage turned and couldn't be seen before he retracted his gaze and looked at Mother Xu, who was looking at him with horror on his face.

Mother Xu was so scared that he almost didn't send him away on the spot. At this moment, her mind was blank, and she was still trying to make up her words: "Madam, Madam, after hearing about Master Liu, worried that Madam Liu could not bear the news, so she went to Liu Mansion. Visited Mrs. Liu."

"The servant girl, the servant girl is also worried about what is wrong with Master Liu, what should Mrs. Liu do? The servant girl is thinking about this..."

She was talking, but couldn't continue, because Ji Changze looked at her silently all the time.

Although he didn't say much, the information revealed in those eyes seemed to be that he knew everything.

No, how could the lord know.

It must be a lie to her.

Mother Xu forced her composure and squeezed a smile at Ji Changze.

"Master, is there anything else? If it's okay, the slave and maid will go back first."

After she finished speaking, she blessed her body, turned around and was about to leave in a hurry.

When I thought it was the past, Ji Changze's voice came from behind him: "You are a loyal one."

Mother Xu broke out in a cold sweat, turned her head, and smiled reluctantly: "What the master said, the slave and maid are from Ji's mansion, so naturally she must be loyal."

Ji Changze faintly looked directly into her eyes, and when Mother Xu was afraid to get out of the air, he suddenly turned his gaze and looked towards the horizon.

"The madam has never been discharged from the hospital for more than ten years. I may have forgotten how to communicate with others. It would not be troublesome to bring a yellow-haired girl. The mother went to Liu Mansion to stay with Madam for a few days and help her take care of it."

Mother Xu swallowed nervously. I don’t know how the master knew that the wife was planning to stay in Liu’s house for a few days. When the wife left, she didn’t even change the clothes. She was careful to test: "What the lord said, madam. I just went to visit Mrs. Liu, and naturally I still have to come back."

"She and Madam Liu are close friends in the boudoir. When the Liu family encounters an accident, she naturally wants to support Madam Liu. You don't need to say more. Pack up and go now."

Before Mother Xu left, Ji Changze suddenly handed the box she had been holding to Mother Xu.

"If the Liu family really has something, you need to take care of it, so leave this to your wife."

You can't tell what's in the box just by looking at the box. Mother Xu can only guess through Ji Changze's words that it might be money or something.

She nodded and agreed, then hurriedly saluted and turned away.

After two steps, she turned her head again and looked at the back of the man who was standing by the side door looking outside. Suddenly she noticed something strange in her heart.

Mother Xu took another two steps before she pulled the young man standing in the courtyard and asked, "When did the master arrive at the door?"

The young man recognized her as a close friend of the wife, and answered very eagerly: "I came early in the morning. The horse carriage that the wife rides was still prepared by the master. It was originally at the gate, after watching the wife go away. , Just go to the side door."

Mother Xu stood there in shock, not knowing how to react.

Why does the master look as if he was not surprised by his wife's behavior.

Even, as expected.

Does he really know nothing?

Mother Xu suddenly thought of something and opened the small box in her hand.

There are a few silver notes lying quietly inside, the number is very small, but when you can see it, the amount on it is actually ten thousand.

These few silver tickets alone were enough for them to have a very good time after running away with the Liu family.

Mother Xu carefully looked at the numbers on the banknotes, and these banknotes could actually be exchanged for banknotes without verifying their identity.

A thought came out of her heart.

The master personally ordered the carriage, and he stood at the door early in the morning watching the lady leave, and sent her to the lady to give her enough money for them to live a lifetime.

All these things got together, it was as if the master knew the worst plan in his wife's heart and took the Liu family and Mrs. Li to escape.

"No, it's impossible..."

She muttered to herself.

How is this possible.

In the eyes of the master, Madam and Madam Liu are just handkerchiefs.

When the Liu family is in trouble, the wife will help, but it is impossible for the master to think of running away.

If he really thought of it, he would help, or even indulge his wife to take away most of the wealth in the mansion, then there is only one possibility.

Mother Xu stood on the spot, in the cold weather, and she was sweating on her back.

This may be, the master knows.

He knew that for his wife, Liu's family had more important people.

――Miss Leping.
