Fostering apprentices

"I'll be with you."

"Really?"

Mu Chu didn't want to be punished on the washboard because of something that was a man and a woman.

He sighed helplessly, pulled the master into the inner hall, and pressed him on the bed: "Take a good rest and wait for me to come back."

"Then, you should finish it sooner." Yan Nan looked at the back of leaving, and naturally felt a little distressed in his heart. He had never let this child stay up all night since he was a child, but now he is so tired after returning to his own identity.

The greater the ability, the greater the responsibility, but Yan Nan does not want to see his sweetheart so tired.

However, he seems to have heard that if you stay up late for a long time, your hair will fall out, and he has forgotten who said it.

Late at night, it seemed to be raining outside, and the pattering raindrops slapped on the window, making people who were sleeping hugging each other on the bed frown.That night, Yan Nan had a dream. He dreamed that he was married, and the groom was Xiao Ah Chu. Suddenly hugged a child to him, and said excitedly that it was his child, Yan Nan was startled awake in an instant.

It was already morning when he woke up, and the bedside was already empty, thinking that Ah Chu had gone to the morning court.

Yan Nan wiped the sweat off his brow, and patted his chest in shock. Fortunately, this was just a dream. If it was true, he might not only faint from fright, but might even die from fright.

The event of giving birth to a child was too horrifying, and left a deep shadow on him.

On the Jinluan Hall, the civil and military ministers of the court stood in a row, headed by the first-rank officials, the Prime Minister Taiwei and others. In the magnificent hall, the atmosphere was oppressive. Mu Chu glanced around at the people below, with a look of cruelty on his face. smile.

"Empress? Tell me, whose opinion is it?" Sitting on the dragon chair on the high platform, above tens of thousands of people, he was dignified and majestic, and his gestures were filled with the aura of a king. He stretched out his hand and threw more than a dozen memorials In front of the minister.

Although he was smiling, the surroundings continued to be cold, and the strong low pressure suppressed all the ministers out of breath.

An official behind the prime minister came out. This person was the Minister of the Ministry of Officials, the third-rank official: "Reporting to the emperor, drafting a talent, establishing a queen, and spreading branches and leaves are the rules left by the ancestors. Please think twice, Your Majesty."

"The rules of the ancestors?"

Mu Chu sneered, with a cold gleam in his eyes: "It seems that Aiqing respects the ancestors." He stared closely at the official minister, the smile on his face became more and more obvious, and the killing intent in his heart became stronger .

If Ruochen looked at this servant who had just taken office, he probably wouldn't survive today.

"Then, Aiqing, let's go and accompany the old ancestor, come here." The smile on Mu Chu's face was completely gone, and the majesty on his body made everyone shudder even if he sat there. He rubbed his forehead, but there was no sign of it. Glancing at the Minister of the Ministry of Officials, he said directly: "The Minister of the Ministry of Officials advocates superstition, confuses the king's heart, and ordered to be beheaded at the Meridian Gate to show the public. Anyone who pleads for him will be executed for the same crime."

"Do you have any objections, ladies?"

On the surface it was a question, but the tone was unquestionable. Naturally, the ministers kept their heads down and dared not say a word, especially if the prime minister damaged an official by one party.

After the court, just as the prime minister walked out of the palace gate, a carriage stopped in front of him, and when the curtain was lifted, it was Ruochen.

"Is General Ruo looking for something from me?" The prime minister is over half a hundred years old, and people who have experienced two dynasties are also tactful in dealing with things. If it was other generals, he would naturally ignore it. Seeing that it was Ruochen, he immediately changed his attitude : "Does the emperor have something for the general to bring over?"

Ruochen smiled, and then said: "The emperor asked the general to give the prime minister a word, no matter how plump the wings are, the bird will eventually grow old. Instead of aiming for thousands of miles, it is better to guard your own three-acre acre first." Divide the land."

"That's the end of the story, please experience it yourself."

The prime minister nodded and said: "My minister has been taught." Seeing the carriage drifting away, the prime minister immediately turned cold, and the officials who followed him asked, "My lord, does the emperor know something?"

"He's just an evil seed left over from the previous dynasty, so there's nothing to be afraid of." He looked at the gradually disappearing car figure in front of him, a few gleams of light flashed in his cloudy eyes, as long as he still had a little power in his hand, he would not Afraid of this fledgling kid.

Disputes above the court are not a child's play.

The carriage left the royal city all the way, and stopped at the edge of a small bamboo forest. Ruochen opened the curtain of the carriage, and a man came out, dressed in white like snow, with a guqin on his back: "Leaving the royal city."

He looked at the scenery in front of him, turned around and asked the people sitting inside: "Are you sure the Prime Minister and the group won't make any moves while you're away?"

"He dare not." Mu Chu said truthfully.

After the court, they packed up and prepared to go to Nanling, the trip would take a few days, Yan Nan knew that Mu could not delay, so he advanced the schedule.

Because he knew that the prime minister and his party had ulterior motives, and if they made any moves during Ah Chu's departure, then there would be a big problem.

Originally, he didn't want this person to follow him back to Nanling, but he couldn't be blamed anyway, Yan Nan looked at the people who were already resting in the carriage, sighed helplessly, and got into the carriage again.

"continue."

Jiangbei was also preparing to leave after the ceremony, but Yan Nan's request to him was a bit tricky, so he stayed in Dongyue for a few more days.The Jiang family's intelligence network spread all over the world, so it would not take long for him to find out the identity of the person named Changyue.

It's just Mu Chu...he can be sure that this person is not simple.

In the Goulan courtyard, the singing and dancing were still the same. It was not the first time Jiangbei had stepped into this kind of place, but it was the first time to find someone.

The old bustard recently wondered if his shop had become famous far and wide, why all the rich men and brothers came here, today this one looks not much different from that day's young man.

She smiled and immediately greeted him: "Oh, young master, who are you looking for today?"

The heavy makeup made Jiang Bei frowned slightly, he stepped back a few steps, covered his nose and asked, "Is there someone named Yuniang here?"

"Yu Niang?" The old bustard was slightly taken aback, but she did recognize her, "Master, why are you looking for that old woman?"

She looked at this young son, he looked like a beautiful tree, and he was wearing fine brocade clothes, but why did he have such a strong taste?

"Sir, could it be..."

Jiang Bei glanced at her faintly: "I'm not that interested, what is Yu Niang doing here?"

The old bustard smiled and replied: "She, a servant, does some rough work in the firewood shed, cooking fire, serving tea and water."

"I don't know what the young master is talking about looking for Yu Niang?"

Jiang Bei's eyes darkened a little, and he cast a look at the hidden guard who was following him, and the man left immediately: "I've redeemed her body, you ask a price."

"Redemption for her?" The bustard was a little surprised. She didn't know about Yuniang's background. When she first saw her, she was in tatters. She was past the age of being a girl, so she simply let her go to the back kitchen to do some rough work, but This young man in front of him actually wants to redeem an old woman?

Could it be that she is really a relative of some high-ranking official?

The old bustard immediately made up some calculations in her heart, and she slowly stretched out a finger.

"1000 taels?" Jiang Bei looked at her, but didn't say anything. He took out a stack of banknotes from his sleeve and threw them to the old bustard: "Here is 5000 taels of silver. I will take it away with Yu Niang."

The madam excitedly picked up the 5000 taels of silver note: "Thank you son, thank you son, my family will let someone bring Yuniang over here now." She originally wanted to say 100 taels, but she thought it was a high asking price, but she didn't expect it to happen this time It is 5000 taels of silver.

It seems that Yu Niang's identity is really not simple.

The servant was sent to find someone, and the bustard stood in front of him and poured Jiangbei tea, even bringing out the tea that he was reluctant to drink on weekdays.

"Young Master, do you dare to ask if this Yu Niang is your relative or friend? When I saw her coming here, she seemed to have been chased by someone, and there was nothing good about her."

Listening to her description, Jiang Bei became more convinced of her thoughts. If it hadn't been for the news from Dongyue's spies that Changyue had a nanny named Yuniang when she was a child, if Changyue was the prince, the nanny's identity could be described as Incomparably noble, and will not be reduced to a brothel.

In other words, Yuniang knew something before she left the palace. On the way, she met Changyue's pursuit and ended up in the land of fireworks.

However, all of this is his guess, and he will know everything only after he sees Yuniang and cross-examines him.

After waiting for a long time, the boy didn't come over. Jiang Bei was a little confused, and when he was about to get up and go in person, a voice came from behind: "There's water, there's water, there's water in the backyard."

Jiang Bei slammed the teacup on the table and ran towards the backyard.

The backyard of Goulanyuan is not very big, but there are many things piled up, which are most likely to be ignited by fire. He looked at the kitchen that was emitting thick smoke, and frowned.

"My lord, people have escaped."

A cold light flashed in Jiang Bei's eyes. It seemed that someone had told Yuniang in advance that someone was looking for her, so he set fire to the kitchen and fled.

As for who helped her, it must have something to do with Changyue.

"Issue a wanted arrest warrant and let all the forces of the Jiang family look for it. If you dig three feet into the ground, this son will also see Yuniang's shadow."

The Jiang family's spies are all over the world, so he doesn't believe that Yuniang can fly into the sky and escape from the earth.

A carriage quickly left the Wangcheng from Suzaku Street, and a woman who seemed to be around 50 or [-] years old was sitting in it. The carriage stopped when no one was around.

The woman seemed to be frightened, and opened the curtain to escape, but was stopped by the driver.

"What do you want to do?"

"I don't know anything, and I don't say anything."

The man chuckled, and threw the burden in his hand to Yuniang: "I am only following the master's order."

"You don't need to ask who my master is. You just need to know that it is my master who rescued you today. There are 1000 taels of silver in the bag, which is enough for you to go back to your hometown."
