Be a national teacher in Liaozhai Fanwen

Chapter 59 Sugar Fried Chestnuts

In the setting sun and rosy clouds, lone geese fly south.

The stalls on the street have also begun to close their stalls one after another. If they are late and miss the closing time, they will go to prison for the night.

Ruan Tao galloped all the way to the prefect's Yamen on Dama Street.

When he arrived at the gate of the prefect's yamen, he just caught up with the prefect Wu who was about to accompany his wife back to her mother's house for dinner. When he handed over the scarecrow wrapped in fox fur to the prefect's hand, the prefect Wu's eyes widened!

"What is this?" Wu Taishou looked at the scarecrow wrapped in fox fur in his hand.

"Didn't the Chang Ye Ridge outside the city have a fox scene some time ago?" Ruan Tao was slightly panting because he had been jolting on the horse for so long.

Prefect Wu nodded: "Isn't this about Zhuo Lingge's business?"

"We checked, and it wasn't some demon fox, that's what the villagers saw. What does it mean?" Ruan Tao raised his eyebrows, "It means that this is not a demon fox causing trouble, but a man-made disaster. Since it is a man-made disaster, it has nothing to do with our Zhuo Ling Pavilion Already!"

"People..." Wu Taishou looked at the scarecrow in his hand in disbelief, "How can this be a man-made disaster?! You Zhuo Lingge are not good at work, so you use this thing to coax children to evade?!"

"Don't believe me? If you don't believe me, go up the mountain and search for it yourself!" Ruan Tao pointed in the direction of the city gate, "If you can find a talking fox, it means I'm not doing my job well, so you can take my hat off. Let me call you Daddy!"

Prefect Wu hurriedly raised his hand to stop him: "Don't! I'm not so lucky to have a son like you!"

Ruan Tao looked at it, and the sweat dripped from Wu Taishou's forehead!

Presumably, all that should be known about the fox barking is already known.

It was only then that Ruan Tao figured out that the strange reason was that today's case was not assigned to him by Master Mao, but was handed over by Zimei.

It must be that after Master Mao learned about this matter, he knew that he should not be involved in this matter, so he reported it to the eldest son, and the eldest son let Zimei find him with the case.

Not sure, I and Zimei were the last to know about this matter.

Prefect Wu originally thought that this matter fell on Zhuo Lingge, and it had nothing to do with him anyway, but who knew that the "pole" went around and went back to their prefect's yamen.

This matter involves Daqin Sheji, plus an elder son, if you don't pay attention, it's not just as simple as the hat being taken off, it may even lose your life, can the prefect Wu not break out in a cold sweat?

Looking at the man in front of him, Ruan Tao couldn't help but sigh that the officialdom is not easy.

Then, he handed the papers and approval documents in his arms to Taishou Wu, and told the other party that all the things Zhuo Lingge found were in it, and asked him to stamp them tomorrow and send them back to Zhuo Lingge the next day. The matter has been transferred to the prefect's yamen, and has nothing to do with Zhuo Lingge.

After explaining, Ruan Tao patted the shoulder of Prefect Wu who had been stunned in place, telling him to ask for blessings, and then got on his horse and left.

The so-called gods fight and mortals suffer, the water in the pond in Shangjun has been muddied.

After riding the horse for two streets, Ruan Tao looked at the round yellow sun above the city gate and let out a long sigh. He got off the horse and led the horse back slowly. chaos.

At this time, the roadside stalls on the street are almost closed, the old trees in the setting sun, the light smoke curling up, and the wind chimes from the surrounding turrets are "jingling" by the wind, adding to the magnificence of the frontier.

Ruan Tao walked slowly on the street alone, with a somewhat bleak air.

He found that he still thought of all this too simply, whether it was Wang Mang, Zhou Youling, the unknown monk from the Western Regions, or the person who provoked him in the Gu barrier, and even said that he was constantly tripping him up in secret. Zhao Gao, who is a child, is not as simple as he thought.

He seems to think of everything too simply, or he takes himself too seriously.

It's true that he doesn't belong to this world, and it's true that he has some abilities in him, and he was so lucky that he got such a big fox with eight tails like Hu Chang.

Therefore, those people approached him because they had plans for him, either they wanted to get something from him, or they wanted to kill him directly or for other purposes.

It was also because of thinking like this that he thought about entering Zhuo Ling Pavilion directly and directly confronting the opponent head-on!

However, what happened to this fox today made him suddenly understand.

In fact, all the people and all the things are tossing and tossing for one thing - the throne!

All the people in this huge empire built by the unprecedented emperor through the ages all rushed to the highest point of the empire.

In Ruan Tao's mind, what he saw in Fusu's Gu barrier was the night-time lights in the dormitory, and the figure of Wei'an in the black imperial robe, which was only a fantasy in Fusu's memory outlined by the Gu barrier. It can make Ruan Tao feel a huge sense of oppression on his body.

well!He almost figured it out now!

Whether it is Wang Mang or the mysterious person in the Gu barrier, no matter what kind of mentality they have to approach him, in fact, their ultimate goal has nothing to do with him, Ruan Tao, but with that position.

It is estimated that they are only interested in him because he suddenly appeared next to the person who is most likely to sit in that position at present - the young master Fusu.

If this is the case, then Wang Mang's position is a bit interesting.

Is he on the side of Young Master Fusu?Are you still playing Infernal Affairs?

After all, he is the son of destiny, so he can take the position himself.

As for the lunatic that the fox mentioned, who died in the east of the city ten years ago and suddenly reappeared now...

Ruan Tao didn't believe that he would be a popular face. If there were too many coincidences, it would definitely not be a coincidence.

Now Shangjun is in such a mess, and tomorrow Naluoshizi's great master will come again.

Ruan Tao sighed again. When he took over Miss Gu's case, he saw the ghost girl Gu. He thought it was just a coincidence, so he wanted to investigate further. He felt that if he found out, it would be an explanation to the Gu family. Who knows the last clue? There is only one Western Region monk.

Unexpectedly, before that matter was found out, another Zhou Youling came. He thought that Zhou Youling was just a fierce ghost who was fighting against the mother and son, and he heard that the other party was also related to a monk from the Western Regions, so he was very curious.

Now he is not curious at all!I really dare not be curious.

One thing after another, buckling up one after another, Ruan Tao knew that if he continued to be curious, he might not be sure about his life!

He just wants to earn some money and buy a house to die in peace. He will not pose any threat to them, and he is not interested in the official position of the court. Why is he always struggling in the quagmire now?

How about... run away?

Ruan Tao paused, looking at the bright red sun in the sky, his heart suddenly brightened!

yes!The reason why he struggled in this swamp and couldn't get out was because he stayed in Shangjun, in the middle of this swamp. As the saying goes, a man is innocent, but a pregnant woman is guilty!

Then it's okay for him to leave?

He is also different from ordinary businessmen and farmers, as long as there is a small banner waving, where will he go for food or work?

How about going back to Chengdu?In short, Ruan Tao grew up there, and his parents were also buried there. Although he has no relatives, he always has friends.

The flood is now over!Although Ruan Tao's family fortune was stolen on the way to Shangjun because of the crazy kid, but no matter how poor the family is, there should be two acres of land left, right?

He can go back and build a thatched cottage and set up a stall in Chengdu!

At that time, wouldn't these messy things be solved easily now?

Thinking about it this way, Ruan Tao realized that these headaches could not trap him at all!

There is no father here, there is a place to keep the father!

He is a free and carefree person, why bother to entangle with them, a group of black-hearted people, in this border city?

The more Ruan Tao thought about it, the more cheerful he became. He got on his horse and prepared to gallop back to Yusi Street to tell Zigong about it. In short, Zigong didn't like the intrigues in court, so he decided to "elope" to Chengdu together. Got it!

Just when he got on the horse and raised his hand to raise his whip, a clear voice behind him called him: "Ji Zhen?"

Ruan Tao was taken aback, and turned his head slowly, only to see a carriage with four horses parked behind him, the curtain was lifted from inside, revealing that shockingly handsome face.

"Fu Su?" Ruan Tao was a little surprised.

"Where are you going?" Fusu asked, "Hurry up and get in the car. It's autumn and the wind is strong in the evening. Be careful that the wind blows at you. I'll take you back."

Ruan Tao's words of refusal reached his throat and he didn't say it. He handed his horse to the little eunuch in front of the carriage and got into Fusu's carriage.

As soon as Ruan Tao got into the car, he sighed that the car was really big, even if four or five grown men were seated, it would not be too crowded. Delicate little pot.

Ruan Tao couldn't help thinking, it really is the child who was raised by the deep palace, and it is still the same in this fortress.

Fortunately, the other party's cleanliness is not as strong as when he was a child!Ruan Tao felt dizzy when he thought about the days when Fusu's servant was forced to take care of Fusu's daily life.

Fusu first poured him a cup of tea: "I remember you like to drink tribute eyebrows."

Ruan Tao took the teacup with a smile: "Thank you!"

Fusu smiled, picked up the sugar-fried chestnuts and peeled them again: "Don't you usually run home as soon as you let the government go? Where are you going?"

"Go to the prefect's yamen to hand over the case, about the fox talking nonsense in the mountains." Ruan Tao took a sip of the tea in his cup, observing the expressions of the people in front of him.

Unexpectedly, the person in front of him put the peeled candied chestnuts in front of him without changing his face, and praised with a smile: "It's a smart way to divert trouble from the east."

"What about you? Where are you going?" Ruan Tao asked as he put down the teacup.

"Just came back from the army, General Meng Tian asked me for something." Fusu continued to pick up the chestnuts and peeled them skillfully.

"Is it because... about that fox?" Ruan Tao asked.

Fusu smiled, and handed the freshly peeled chestnuts to his mouth, Ruan Tao was taken aback, then opened his mouth and let the other party put the chestnuts into his mouth, biting it lightly, the sweet and soft taste is heart-warming It also softened.

At this time, Fusu said softly: "I'm sorry, the matter in the army is a secret in the army, I can't tell you."

"Are you still eating?" Fusu asked.

"Ah? Don't worry about me. I have a thick skin. If I want to eat, I will peel it with my hands. You peel it and eat it yourself." Ruan Tao laughed.

"I don't eat chestnuts." Fusu took another chestnut and began to peel it, "Eat less, too. If you eat too many chestnuts, you won't be able to digest them. It's easy to accumulate food at night."

Ruan Tao looked at the fruits on the small table in front of him, which were basically chestnuts and pine nuts, and he remembered that the 15-year-old eldest son in the Gu barrier really didn't like this kind of fruit.

Ruan Tao asked curiously, "By the way, why don't you eat and buy so much?"

As soon as he finished speaking, the freshly peeled chestnuts were brought to his mouth.

"Some people like to eat, so they always keep some by their side." Fusu replied.
