Stirring up with the old enemy

Yue Nanhua patted Hao Chun on the shoulder and was earnestly teaching him how to show the posture of a husband and make a good appearance.

"Ahem," Cheng Huaijing pressed his fist to his lips, interrupting Yue Nanhua at the right time. "Sister-in-law, don't teach him to be bad. If you look back carefully, Ah Si will find out..."

Cheng Huaijing deliberately didn't finish his sentence, and there was a hint of a smile in his peach blossom eyes.

"Cheng, Wu, Lang!" Yue Nanhua wished he could pull the cigarette stick from Bai Yu's belt, poked Cheng Huaijing's heart, and asked him, what does it mean to blackmail Shisi Lang?

Fourteenth Lang is 15 years younger than Yue Nanhua. He is an old man and young husband. In the early years, Yue Nanhua almost regarded Fourteenth Lang as his son's pet.Now that Fourteenth Lang has achieved great success, he is conferred the title of Marquis of Jianye in Yingtian Chaotang, and the head of the Yinmen sect of Yu Jianghu, Longshan Fourteenth Lang is also the head of the sect. He is no longer that young boy. The relationship between the two is unknown upside down.

Yue Nanhua was beaten to death and refused to admit it, he is really a little scared of Shishilang now.

On the way back to Chang'an, I ran into Hao Chun, he just joked a few words, Shishi Lang turned around and screwed with him for half a month.This is not the end!After arriving in Chang'an, his back has been in pain for the past six months, day and night, he has to be made to cry and beg for mercy.

"Tsk, Lord Hou, we have something to talk about!" Yue Nanhua turned a corner resolutely, put his arm around Hao Chun's shoulders and walked vaguely with a smile. "While drinking, I heard that there is a sheep shop in Shuangfengfang, Chang'an. The sheep's eyes are delicious."

Hao Chun hesitated for a moment. "This dowry..."

"The dowry gift? Cheng Wulang isn't here! He is the great Sikong of the dynasty and the mentor of Mrs. Hou of your family. He is willing to accept it. Could it be that who in your family can tell me?"

Yue Nanhua couldn't get angry with Cheng Huaijing, so he vented all his anger on Chen Jingming, saying who is your family, he was referring to Chen Jingming, but he didn't talk to Chen Jingming directly.

Chen Jingming lowered his eyelids, and said deliberatively, "Teacher, it's not that the students are unwilling to accept the dowry. It's because the students have just returned to Chang'an, and the rent of the house they originally rented was refunded by Master Pingle and the dowry was accepted. Now there is no place to rest."

Yue Nanhua only talked to Hao Chun, and Chen Jingming only complained to Cheng Huaijing.

Cheng Huaijing smiled slightly. "What's the matter? You husband and wife had an awkward dispute, but you got involved with me and the ruler of the Yuezhi Kingdom?"

"Students dare not."

"Da Sikong's words are serious, too serious!"

Chen Jingming and Hao Chun spoke at the same time, one was respectful and polite, the other grinned strangely.

These two people really have different temperaments.

Cheng Huaijing frowned slightly, and after a while, he said with a soft smile: "In this matter of quarreling, the most taboo is for the public to say that the public is right, and the mother-in-law is right, so if you are really concerned that there is no room for the dowry, let's put it in the Lord Yue's place for the time being." In the courtyard."

"Hey! Why did you let me go there?" Yue Nanhua's amber cat eyes lightly moved, and said unwillingly: "If someone dares to hire me, Long Shisi must flatten that person to make cakes! "

Cheng Huaijing frowned, and also sighed sadly. "Well, if it is left in my Da Sikong Mansion, His Majesty will probably be annoyed. Your Majesty will be annoyed..."

His Majesty was annoyed, and Hao Chun lost his head.

Hao Chun immediately bared his teeth and said with a smile: "Why put Da Sikong Mansion? It's nothing, he has no place to live now, so he lives in my Pinglehou Mansion."

Uh, broken!He circled himself in.

Before Hao Chun had time to repent, Cheng Huaijing had already interjected: "Yes, he will live in your Pinglehou Mansion, why don't you just take the betrothal gift back?"

Hao Chun was tongue-tied, his red and phoenix eyes widened.

Sure enough, a mountain is higher than a mountain.As soon as Cheng Da Sikong makes a move, he will know if there is one!This... he brought the betrothal box and cage from Taichang Temple all the way with gongs and drums, and finally carried it to Dali Temple, but in the end he had to carry it back to Pinglehou Mansion in public?

fall!

"Da Sikong, I'm thinking about this..." Hao Chunchi said to Ai, blinking his Danfeng eyes and smiling flatteringly.

"Are you wondering, or are you dreaming?" Cheng Huaijing raised her long eyebrows with a half-smile, and glanced at Chen Jingming, who was pursing her lips. "Here, why don't you discuss it with Mr. Han first?"

A cold air swished from Chen Jingming's body.

Hao Chun immediately covered his nose and laughed awkwardly. After all, he knew that being kissed by Pei Yuan was an insult to Chen Jingming.Besides, it's not easy for him to offend Cheng Da Sikong, is he? "All right, all right, I'll carry it back."

Chen Jingming didn't say a word, and stood beside him with lowered eyes like a jade sculpture.

Before Hao Chun left, he stared at Chen Jingming angrily, turned his head and left the flower hall of Dali Temple, and waved his hand to greet his servants. "Come on, let's all go back with the young master, and carry these boxes back to Pinglehou Mansion."

"Master Hou, slow down!" Yue Nanhua followed out with a white copper pipe slantingly in his mouth, looking at Hao Chun with a smile. "The pair of master and apprentice have a lot of secrets to tell, and no one else is allowed to hear them. The master of the country has no choice but to... ask the young master to accompany me, and go to Chang'an City West Market to play."

Hao Chun bared his teeth. "My lord, weren't you invited to visit Dali Temple?"

Yue Nanhua narrowed her narrow amber cat eyes and smiled. "My lord, I have changed my mind."

Come on, everyone is an unreliable master.

Hao Chun shrugged his shoulders and casually invited him. "Then, I will trouble the Lord to wait a moment, and after these things are sent back, I will accompany you to have a drink."

"Okay!" Yue Nanhua agreed with a dry pipe in his mouth.

Over there, Cheng Huaijing dismissed Hao Chun with a few words, and asked him to accompany that unsightly Yue Nanhua, and took back all the cages outside Dali Temple by the way.In the silent corridor, only Cheng Huaijing and Chen Jingming were left.

"The eighth son of the Fan family in Luyang, he refuses to speak." Chen Jingming lowered his eyelids and said quietly, "It's the students who are incompetent and have failed the teacher's trust."

Cheng Huaijing chuckled lightly. "Your Majesty has no heirs, and now all the families in the clan are ready to move, no matter whether they are in the same branch or not, and regardless of whether they have the ability, they are now vigorously jumping up. The princess of Lu Yang Fan's family was originally a princess without a fief, how peaceful is she? Ten years, when I am old, I am confused."

"What do you mean, teacher?"

"I once had a mentor." Cheng Huaijing suddenly changed the topic, raised her face slightly, her peach blossom eyes sparkled.The scorching sun was shining on the temples on the top of his head, and the temples were faintly tinged with turquoise jade. "Back then, His Majesty was still submissive, but Emperor Lu was unkind, and his mentor endured the humiliation and passed through the court, and finally punished Xiaoxiao, the starter."

Chen Jingming raised his head in astonishment.

What Cheng Huaijing said was too cryptic, the court had experienced the past, and even a poor family like Chen Jingming had no way of knowing it.But there is only one person who can make Cheng Huaijing call his mentor.

"What the teacher said is Lord Mei Lunmei who presided over Qiu Wei in Qianyuan 23, who was then the Minister of Guanglu Temple?"

Cheng Huaijing's eyes moved slightly, and there was an inexplicable meaning in the eyes, and finally he cast such eyes on Chen Jingming. "That's right! My mentor has one thing, which is no different from Mr. Han."

Chen Jingming hurriedly closed his eyes and whispered. "Students panic!"

"Just like you, he also came from a poor family. At that time, there was no shelter for the poor family in the court and the field. Fortunately, the teacher met someone at that time, and he was able to use the identity of that person's disciple to enter the official court and become one of the nine ministers of Yingtian. " Cheng Huaijing paused, then said with a smile that was not a smile: "Is this just the same as you, Mr. Han?"

Chen Jingming pondered the meaning of this passage, and thought of all kinds of rumors about Mei Lun, so he asked uncertainly: "What does the teacher mean?"

Cheng Huaijing sighed, a little disappointed. "Mr. Han, when you are young, you must be somewhat chivalrous. You are good in everything, but there is one thing. I always think you are too cautious."

Chen Jingming hurriedly bowed and saluted, with a little panic. "The teacher taught me that!"

Being cautious is probably for self-protection.

Cheng Huaijing lingered in his heart for a moment, intending to spend a little more time instructing him, then softened his tone and said with a smile: "Mr. Very good!"

Chen Jingming didn't know why the topic brought up Hao Chun again, he raised his eyelids, his lacquered eyes were full of bewilderment.

So Cheng Huaijing really smiled, her thin red lips curved slightly, and the bright red tear mole under her right eyelid was rippling. "Both of you are thoughtful people. The difference is that you look lonely and arrogant, while he lives recklessly. It's good that you two are evenly matched."

"The students are terrified!" Chen Jingming bowed deeply, not daring to raise his head again.

Being judged by the chief minister of the dynasty as a heavy-hearted person, no one can afford it, and Chen Jingming dare not bear this name.In particular, he has nothing, and all he relies on is Cheng Da Sikong as his mentor to protect his official career.

Cheng Huaijing seemed to see right through him.He smiled slightly, leaned over to listen to his ear, and said to him very softly: "Your Majesty is still young, this matter of choosing an heir is just a bait."

Chen Jingming was terrified.

Cheng Huaijing looked at him sideways, her peach blossom eyes glistened under the sun, she didn't know how many unfinished words she had hidden.

Chen Jingming's mouth was suddenly parched, and he no longer dared to look directly at this Da Sikong who once frightened the government and the public with the name of "Embroidered Demon".He bowed and stood still until his heavy clothes were drenched in sweat, before he said in a shy voice, "Mr. Xie made it clear! The students know all about it, and then..."

"Next, you should try your best to thoroughly investigate the matter of Lu Yang Fan's family. Then, if necessary, you should go to Jiangnan again."

"Yes!"

Cheng Huaijing suddenly stopped talking, turned around, her thin red lips seemed to be smiling but not smiling.Chen Jingming followed his gaze, and saw Pei Yuanshi, the Shaoqing of Dali Temple, coming from the corridor calmly, his clothes were in order, obviously he had cleaned them up deliberately.

They also wore a scarlet official robe, with Xiezhi embroidered on the bottom of Pei Yuan's official robe, and white cranes embroidered on Chen Jingming.Xie Zhi was in charge of the prison, and he was a fierce beast, but Pei Yuan was born as beautiful as a good girl.

"Your Majesty, Pei Yuan, Shaoqing of Dali Temple, see Process Da Sikong!" Pei Yuan Shiran rushed to Huai Jing to salute.

Cheng Huaijing nodded slightly, and said calmly: "It's just right that you are here. The officer is about to go to the prison for interrogation. The case of Lu Yang Fan's Fan Xun has dragged on for three months, and it is almost time to close it."

Pei Yuan smiled, with bright apricot eyes and a small dimple on his left lip. "Fan Xun asked Chen Yushi to torture him overnight, and he had the will to die early, and now he has died."

Chen Jingming was terrified, and immediately raised his eyelids and said coldly: "When the next official came, he was clearly still alive!"

"Just died." Pei Yuan smiled again, and the dimples at the corners of his mouth became more glaring. "If Mr. Chen doesn't believe it, you and I can accompany Da Sikong to the autopsy. This corpse is still hot."

Cheng Huaijing couldn't help frowning, her peach blossom eyes couldn't tell the difference between joy and anger.He pondered for a moment, then asked, "What is the cause of death?"

Pei Yuan cupped his hands Shi Shiran again. "It's what the officer said just now. The punishment was so severe that the prisoner's hands and feet were severed. In addition, the prisoner had been on a hunger strike for several days before. Unfortunately, he couldn't survive."

It sounded like he was tortured to death by Chen Jingming.

Chen Jingming turned pale suddenly.He looked up at Cheng Huaijing, hesitant to speak, and finally lowered his gaze, and said quietly: "This official has indeed used torture."

Cheng Huaijing smiled, tilted his head slightly, and said: "Before I came, I made an agreement with His Majesty myself. Since I came, I can't leave empty-handed. Let's go to the autopsy first!"

"Yes," Pei Yuan bowed again. "Please, Sikong!"

When Cheng Huaijing turned around and walked out first, Pei Yuan straightened his body and looked at Chen Jingming.As beautiful as a good girl, Li Dio smiled slightly, but her eyes were full of contempt that could not be concealed.

Chen Jingming clenched the bottom of his sleeves tightly, and the veins on the back of his hands jumped up one by one.

**

Over there, Hao Chun is leading a team through Zhuque Avenue, and the dowry gift from Emperor Yong'an is [-] pieces. The regulations of Yuping Lehou Mansion have gone beyond the standard. It is a regulation that treats Hao Chun's marriage as a royal son. .

There are ten miles of red makeup on Suzaku Street, and it is the standard of the imperial gift, and the idlers along the way can't help but look around.

Yue Nanhua smoked a pipe in a nonchalant way, teasing Hao Chun: "According to this way of walking, I'm afraid that after arriving at the Pinglehou Mansion to arrange the betrothal gifts, the Shuangfeng Sheep House will be closed."

With the box of pearls under his arm, Hao Chun rolled his eyes angrily. "Then what do you mean, what can I do?"

"You and I will eat the goat's eyeballs first. Just send someone to send these cumbersome things back."

"You think I don't want to, my lord?"

Hao Chun got angry when he mentioned the dowry!Thick eyebrows are tall and slender, and a pair of red phoenix eyes are wide-eyed. "But this is something bestowed by His Majesty! Do I dare not stare at it, my lord? Huh?"

Yue Nanhua looked at him, and couldn't help teasing him again: "Don't you dare to co-operate? The lord of the country thought that you dote on that one, and you are reluctant to part with anything related to him, so you have to do it yourself and make a good eye." watching."

Hao Chun paused for a moment before he realized that "that person" Yue Nanhua was referring to was Chen Jingming.He immediately yelled strangely: "What does it mean to hurt him? Just like him!"

As for Chen Jingming, every time I see him, I have to fight.

Hao Chun couldn't help touching the bridge of his nose when he thought of it. "Look, young master, the bridge of my nose is crooked by him. No, I have to take a picture when I get back to the mansion. Is this face blue too? This, this young master, I won't be able to see it." people!"

After staying in Dali Temple for so long, it was almost dusk, Yue Nanhua followed his words and looked at Hao Chun.Under the strong light at dusk in summer, Hao Chun speaks in high spirits, his brows are emerald and thick, and his eyes are like autumn water reflecting the flowing clouds.He is indeed a handsome young man!

Yue Nanhua raised the corners of her lips, and smiled with a cupronickel pipe in her mouth. "Maybe that's what your family is thinking? After all, Hou Ye is used to stealing food, and he beat you up. If Hou Ye goes outside again, he won't be popular."

"Fart!" Hao Chun swears on the spot. "Master, am I the kind of person who doesn't pay attention? Huh?"

"Well, Master Pingle's taste is this—" Yue Nanhua gave Hao Chun a thumbs up, which was a compliment to Hao Chun, but he immediately laughed with a pipe in his mouth. "How else can we pick Chen Yushi?"

Hao Chun was almost choked to death by him on the spot.

"This Chen Yushi, he looks good, and he is very good at studying! The most commendable thing is that he can be favored by the Wulang of the Cheng family." Yue Nanhua smiled at Hao Chun with a dry pipe in his mouth. "You know, that Cheng Jiawulang is a very picky person! Back then..."

"Okay! Stop it!" Hao Chun yelled strangely, rolled his eyes, and said angrily, "I'm not interested in hearing about your old sesame seeds and rotten millet, sir!"

Yue Nanhua's amber-colored cat's eyes rolled slightly, and her eyes flicked with love. "I know you only love to listen to Chen Yushi, but unfortunately, this Chen Yushi probably won't stay in Chang'an for long."

Hao Chun was taken aback, and subconsciously asked: "Why? What did he do?"

If you didn't do anything wrong, why didn't you stay in Chang'an?It is far better to be a seventh-rank Beijing official in Chang'an than to be a third-rank Jiedu envoy on the sixteenth road outside.What's more, Chen Jingming has already made it to a fourth-rank Beijing official, why did he leave?

"Criminal crimes are out of the question." Yue Nanhua spewed out white smoke leisurely, narrowing her long and beautiful eyes. "But it's coming soon!"

Hao Chun opened his eyes, almost missed the hang, and suffocated to death.He clamped the box of pearls under his armpit, and said angrily: "Can you finish the sentence at once?"

Yue Nanhua didn't finish speaking, but squinted at him.Across the rising smoke, Yue Nanhua's brows were hazy for a moment, and the meaning in his words was also vague. "...you care about him?"

Hao Chun choked, and subconsciously clamped the pearl box tightly again, his neck was stiff, and he said stiffly: "You don't care if I shut it or not!"

"If you really care, you shouldn't provoke other people!" Yue Nanhua shook her head with a smile, raised her feet leisurely and continued to walk forward, and said as she walked, "You have to know, there is no man in this world who doesn't like to be jealous."

Hao Chun followed bitterly, and muttered: "You two are both smart, and you can't understand what you say. Who am I offending, sir? Didn't I just go and have a few drinks? ? Young master, I don’t stay overnight outside. I don’t, I don’t, I come back to sleep overnight!”

Yue Nanhua laughed out loud. "Save these words for Chen Yushi to listen to. But hurry up! As soon as that Wulang of the Cheng family goes to Dali Temple, he will be kicked out of Chang'an."

"Impossible!" Hao Chun flatly denied, shaking his head like a rattle. "Da Sikong is that guy's teacher, there is no reason to drive him away."

"But he messed up his errand!" Yue Nanhua smiled and puffed out a long puff of white smoke, her long and beautiful eyes were looking forward, but she couldn't see any truth in her words. "Cheng Jia Wulang was famous in Chang'an back then, and he was only fifteen years old, much younger than the two of you now. Besides, this man is always cruel. In the past, all the princes of the Lu Emperor had friendly relations with him, so how can he When the time is good, I wish I could lend him all the pants. But what happened? In the battle of Qinling in Tongguan, Cheng Jiawulang personally led the Beidi Bai clan outside the pass, and none of the idiots killed were left behind! In the battle of Tongguan, dead bodies lay thousands of miles away! At that time, Wulang of the Cheng family did not soften his heart! It is said that the second prince who is closest to him and those who were in the same discipline as him in the 23rd year of Qianyuan, including Li Xianchen, the head of the Li family in Longxi, all asked him to do it himself. killed."

hiss!

Hao Chun took a long breath.

Yue Nanhua tapped Hao Chun's head with the cigarette stick again with a smile, half-truthfully said: "Master Hou, you are the bishop of this country, and you should remember it well."

Hao Chun stared at him with a pair of bright Danfeng eyes.

"Above this court, there are no permanent enemies, nor are there permanent friends." Yue Nanhua prolonged her tone with a smile, and said softly, "Only, higher interests."

Hao Chun was silent for a moment, then suddenly raised his face and laughed, with a sharp look in his brows. "Then, what about you and Marquis Jianye? Is it the same between you two?"

Yue Nanhua froze, then burst out laughing.He usually likes to wear a fiery red robe, with bewitching eyebrows, but now when he smiles, he looks more like the leader of the demon sect back then.

Both good and evil, people can never guess.

Hao Chun couldn't figure out how much Yue Nanhua's words were true or false, but he still didn't want to believe that Cheng Huaijing would help Chen Jingming.It was Yue Nanhua who reminded him that that little guy Pei Yuan had other thoughts about him, so he should stay away.If the legitimate son of Pei's single heir is taken to a wrong path, hundreds of Pei's mighty people may chase him and beat him up.

Tsk, thinking of that picture makes me panic.

Hao Chun gritted his teeth and laughed along with Yue Nanhua.

The two arrived at Pinglehou's mansion with a box and cage dowry gifts brought from Taichang Temple. They originally said they would go to Xishi to eat mutton, but they entered the flower hall and saw Jianyehou Shishilang Da Majin Daodi sat there and waited.Seeing Yue Nanhua, Fourteenth Lang frowned and looked at Hao Chun rather unkindly.

"I can't find you anywhere, why did you come to Pinglehou Mansion?"

Yue Nanhua shrugged, and said indifferently, "I've been tied up by you for half a year, and it's rare for me to come out for a walk."

Fourteen Lang choked, then frowned to suppress his anger. "The auspicious day for Qin Tianjian's divination will be in the spring of next year at the earliest. It's still early for Marquis Pingle and Chen Yushi to get married. If you feel bored in Chang'an, why don't I go around with you?"

Yue Nanhua's eyes lit up, then he shook his head, and with a dry pipe in his mouth, he said in a neutral tone, "My lord is getting old, so I'm going out with you, in the wild... this waist can't bear it."

Fourteen Lang's face was reddish, he put his hand on his lips and coughed twice, and said softly: "I have something to say at home."

This time it was Yue Nanhua's turn to shake his head like a rattle. "I won't come back! My lord heard that the goat eyes in Shuangfeng Yangsi are fresh, so I'm going to try them with Lord Pingle."

"If you want to taste it, I will go with you."

"I'm sorry, Long Shisi! Unfortunately, the lord of the country has already made an appointment with Marquis Pingle in Dali Temple." Yue Nanhua turned to look at Hao Chun, and said with a smile: "Master Hou, right?"

Fourteenth Lang looked at Hao Chun with a sharp look in his eyes.

Hao Chun only felt that every big hole in his body was locked by Shishi Lang's eyes, and there was wind everywhere.He bit the bullet and laughed awkwardly a few times, and made a haha. "Haha, so what, Lord Jianye, do you want to go with me?"

Shishiro lowered his face. "My husband and I eat wine, what do we have to do with Lord Pingle?"

Hao Chun touched the tip of his nose, and secretly looked at Yue Nanhua out of the corner of his eye.Yue Nanhua's eyes seem to have no place, and he seems to be careless, but in fact, he has been sticking to Shisi Lang like honey.

have to!He's a backstop.

Hao Chun thinks it's unlucky, he can't afford to offend the husband and wife of Yueshi Kingdom, they are not human beings caught in the middle. "Then what, I just remembered, I ate too much wine last night, I can't eat mutton, I'm afraid I'll get a stomachache later."

Fourteen Lang's eyes relaxed, he turned to Yue Nanhua, got up and said in a low voice, "Since he can't go, I'll accompany you to eat."

Yue Nanhua didn't say yes or no, and suddenly leaned into Shisi Lang's ear and said something.Fourteen Lang's face turned redder, he pursed his lips, and there was a smile in his sharp and slender eyes.

Yue Nanhua also curled her lips slightly.

Hao Chunchu looked at the couple in the flower hall with intertwined eyes, his throat was so sweet that his eyes choked. "Ahem, what, you want me to send a boy to lead the way?"

"No need." Fourteenth Lang hugged Yue Nanhua's slender waist tightly and walked out without turning his head. "Excuse me, goodbye!"

"Okay, I'll see you off, young master."

Hao Chun Pi Dian Dian followed behind the two of them. As soon as they walked out of the flower hall, the two men's clothes fluttered, and they both used the peerless lightness kung fu.Suddenly, the couple walked on the blue-gray roof without a trace.

Hao Chun looked up at the sky in a daze. The sky was full of red clouds, and a group of sparrows flew by.

"Bah!" Hao Chun waited to make sure that the two had gone far away, then he lowered his head and spit on the ground, muttering in displeasure: "Isn't it just rushing back to work! What eats goat's eyeballs, it's clearly To eat the whip."

Hao Chun raised his foot to enter the flower hall again, and saw that the flower hall was full of betrothal gifts that could not be delivered, it was even more unpleasant.

Everyone has a whip to eat, when will it be his turn?

The author has something to say:

Hao Chun: Everyone has a whip, when will it be his turn?

Chen Jingming: Day!
