Be a national teacher in Liaozhai Fanwen

Zhuo Ling Court:

The alchemy room was dark and damp, and the mottled walls were covered with various talisman seals and talisman papers.

In the center of the alchemy room is a alchemy stove, burning charcoal fire in the stove, roasting the whole alchemy room so hard that people can't breathe, there are drops of water coming from behind the wall.

After a while, there was only a scream coming from inside the wall, which lasted for a while and then stopped abruptly.

At this time, someone pushed open the door of the alchemy room and walked in—it was really Pan Zao, the deputy head of Zhuoling Pavilion.

He walked to the wall full of talismans and tapped the wall four times: "Director, I found it."

After a while, the corner of the wall moved slightly, and a secret door was pushed open from inside to outside.

Mao Yi walked out of the room. He took out a handkerchief from his arms with a calm expression, wiped the stinky black blood on his hands as he walked out, and asked, "Tell me, why did the eldest son suddenly check on Gong Zilan?"

Pan Zao stroked his mustache and said, "I heard it's because of Ruan Jizhen."

"Huh?" Mao Yi frowned, "Is it really related to him?"

Pan Zao nodded and continued: "I heard that that day Ruan Jizhen went to Wu Taishou's house to help Wu Taishou get rid of evil spirits. It happened that the classmate who had no prefect that day was the one who got sick with Wu Taishou. The comprador businessman is named Huang Tang, and he is also in the Wu Taishou's residence."

Mao Yi nodded, motioning for Pan Zao to continue talking.

Unexpectedly, at this moment, heart-piercing curses came from inside the wall: "Damn it! Mao Yi! You will be punished by God! Retribution—you wait! You just wait for retribution!!"

The voice couldn't be identified as male or female, it was like a sound similar to mortal characters made by some kind of animal, which sent chills down the spine.

Hearing this, Pan Zao frowned slightly, but Mao Yi acted as if he hadn't heard it, and calmly stepped out of the door of the alchemy room with Pan Zao, closed the door casually, and let the heart-piercing scolding The sound is blocked in the room.

In Shangjun in early winter, no matter how glaring the sun is, people are still too cold to resist rubbing their hands.

Mao Yi threw away the handkerchief that had just wiped the blood, and then said to Pan Zao, "Go ahead."

Pan Zao nodded, sighed vaguely, and continued: "I heard that at that time Huang Tang thought that Ruan Jizhen was the newly bought person of Wu Taishou and accidentally offended him. Coincidentally, the eldest son was worried about the situation of Wu Taishou. At that time, I was in the prefect's mansion, so I came across this incident, so I became very angry. Huang Tang immediately revealed all the scandalous things that the prefect Wu had had a personal relationship with Gong Zilan, and the rumors among the people. "

"Offended?" Mao Yi squinted at Pan Zao.

Pan Zao clicked his tongue in distaste: "Then what does Ruan Jizhen look like? He works with demon foxes every day, so it's no wonder that Huang Tang mistook him."

"I'm not talking about that." Mao Yi waved his hand with a solemn expression, "Wu Taishou can be regarded as an upright official in the court, he has been an official for so many years and he is still cautious, Huang Tang is his classmate and should know him Although Ruan Jizhen is a bit out of tune on weekdays, he still wears brocade clothes and jade rings every day, not to mention the people around Wu Taishou, even Wu Taishou himself can't afford to wear his clothes!"

"As a businessman, Huang Tang is naturally sensitive to things of gold and jade. When he saw such a person in the Wu Taishou's mansion, shouldn't he be regarded as a distinguished guest of the Taishou's mansion? How can he be regarded as a guest of the Taishou's mansion?" Waiter?" Mao Yi said.

Hearing this, Pan Zao came to his senses: "You're right! How could he regard Ruan Jizhen as the servant of the prefect's mansion? But... our people found out that's why!"

Mao Yi twirled his goatee: "Could it be that the eldest son saw something and used it to suppress Zhuo Lingge?"

"This..." Pan Zao hesitated for a moment, "Is there no reason for the eldest son to suppress us? Wang Xiang and the national teacher..."

"Wang Xiang?" Mao Yi chuckled, "We Zhuoling Pavilion said that it was supported by Wang Xiang and the national teacher, but in fact, when the group of people from Yushitai visited Zhuoling Pavilion these years, Wang Xiang said A word?"

Pan Zao was a little dazed, and Mao Yi had a gloomy face: "Our national teacher and Wang Xiang must have long been in harmony."

"Then what should we do?" Pan Zao was a little flustered, "If the eldest son wants to use this to suppress us, and Wang Xiang ignores it, if those things come out at that time..."

"Everything comes out?" Mao Yi glanced at Pan Zao coolly.

Pan Zao immediately shut up, and Mao Yi sneered, "Don't worry, the sky will fall and there will be a tall man to support it. We are doing things for the national teacher, not to mention that he is just the eldest son, or he will become the prince in the future. The national teacher is not familiar with him, he can move if he wants to."

As he said that, Mao Yi looked up at the sun in the sky, and said leisurely: "Guess why His Majesty hasn't named son Fusu the crown prince for so many years?"

Pan Zao looked at Mao Yi in a daze and didn't answer.

Mao Yi ignored him, and walked towards the moon gate in the inner courtyard on his own, stretching in the rare early winter sunshine while walking, still looking leisurely and contented.

He sighed: "No matter what, there can only be one sun in the sky."

***

Ruan Tao is not in a good mood these few days, and everyone can see it.

At the age of growing up, I can eat two bowls of dry rice in a meal on weekdays, but I can only eat one bowl these days; I see white silver eyes bent like crescents on weekdays, but I am indifferent when I see gold these days On weekdays, small snacks such as chestnuts and pine nuts are eaten at any time. These days, how did they go out in the morning and come back at night in the purse?

Even the uncle at the wonton stall on Yusi Street, where Ruan Tao went to eat every day, could see that Ruan Tao was in a bad mood.

Today, Ruan Tao came to eat wontons before dawn.

He is a frequent visitor to this stall. Every time he eats wontons, the uncle will scoop up two more for him. He also puts the most spicy peppers. He even occasionally discusses the taste of the stuffing with Ruan Tao.

It's just that after learning that Ruan Tao entered Zhuo Ling Pavilion, the uncle thought that Ruan Tao had become one of those people who only wanted to be rich and rich, so he ignored him.

It's just that these days, this kid is quite honest. He used to be cheerful towards others, but now he is still smiling towards others when others show him a cold face.

At this point, the uncle couldn't bear the cold face anymore, and he still greeted him with a smile every day, and scooped as many wontons for him as possible.

Ruan Tao's age is when he is growing up, so his appetite is naturally excellent!A bowl of two taels of wonton is enough to eat every day without even soup left!

But in the past few days, I often start to be in a daze after taking two bites, and finally have to pour out a big bowl!

Today, the uncle saw Ruan Tao sitting here in the dark, looking like an old god, so he asked, "Brother Ruan?"

"Huh?" Ruan Tao came to his senses after a while, and realized that the uncle was talking to him.

At this time, the sky is bright, and there are not many people on Yusi Street, most of them are small merchants and hawkers who have just come to set up a stall, and Ruan Tao is the only customer in this wonton stall.

The uncle quickly put the wontons into the boiling water, stirred them with a spoon as big as a bowl, and asked, "Why did you get up so early today? I haven't seen the group of Zhuo Lingge get up too early. Why are you and their errands different?" Same?"

The uncle's tone was obvious, he was asking if Ruan Tao was bullied by those old fried dough sticks because of his young age.

Ruan Tao forced a smile: "No, isn't Prefect Wu sick? Today I will go to the Prefect's Mansion to show him."

The uncle nodded, and then said to Ruan Tao: "If you want me to tell you, you shouldn't have gone in at the beginning. Think about who are those people there? They are the ones who get all the oil and water. Seeing that you are young, all the drudgery is under pressure. On you!"

As he said that, the wontons came out of the pot, and the uncle brought the wontons to the table in front of him, and said, "Look at you, you have lost weight recently, and I cooked you three taels today! Eat more!"

"Thank you boss!" Ruan Tao smiled at him.

The old man went back to the stove and was busy with his own work. He rolled the noodles and complained: "The world is really bad now. Such a good person as Wu Taishou has been ill for so long, and the city is full of chaos. At first it was women and children, but now Even adult men were thrown away! I don’t know where the bones have gone! Alas—”

Ruan Tao wasn't out of his mind because of the incident in Shangjun, but because he went to see Fusu that day.

He figured it out for a moment, Fusu didn't seem to care about everything, but it seemed that there was his shadow behind everything.

That day, it was dusk when he arrived at the Zhao residence.

The sunset in the sky was as bright as the day when the two of them made love.

Fusu stood under the rose stand in the courtyard, holding a book in his hand to read again, and when he saw him coming, he put down the book and smiled at him.

So cold, so spotless, as if he was a piece of beautiful jade accidentally left behind by the gods in the sky when they passed by - elegant and gentle.

Whether it is the impression of Fusu in later generations, Ruan Tao's impression of the person in front of him after he knew Fusu, or the evaluation of Fusu by the current people, this person will always be "a gentleman like jade".

only……

"Why are you here?" Fu Su smiled warmly, stepped forward and took Ruan Tao's hand affectionately.

Ruan Tao held his hand back and said, "I... suddenly thought of something, so I want to see you."

"Huh? What's the matter?"

Fusu's smile was still so gentle and impeccable.

Even if he answered Ruan Tao's doubts later, he would do the same.

It was precisely because of this that Ruan Tao felt chills down his spine.

He was surprised to find that he didn't seem to know this man at all.

Yes, he didn't know him at all. Generally speaking, the two of them had only known each other for less than a year, and in this year they rarely got along or communicated alone.

What kind of person Fusu is, he is similar to those around him.

If he had to say that he had a slightly deeper understanding of Fusu, it was probably when he was trapped in Fusu's Gu barrier.

The 15-year-old boy is still a proud man who can lose his temper, which is far from the man in front of him who is gentle and gentle in everything he does, neither happy nor angry.

Ruan Tao couldn't remember how he got out of Zhao Mansion that day.

He only remembered that the person in front of him smiled and said to him: "Xiao Taozi, how do you think I grew up?"

"Do you think that my royal father has raised me by my side for so many years in order to make me rich and idle for the rest of my life?"
