[Comprehensive] One Hundred Ways to Rob the Protagonist
Chapter 16 Red Mansion 16
There was silence in the hall, only the golden-crowned man kept turning around like a caged animal, yelling and cursing as he turned around, "Do you even dare to come and point fingers at Gu?"
The white and fat man lowered his face and waved his hands to the outside, all the singers, dancers and musicians stood up and retreated out without a sound.At the position with his back to the man in the golden crown, the white fat man made a gesture of raising his palm and slashing from top to bottom to the guard outside the door, and then he knelt down in front of the man in the golden crown with a smile and said, "Your Highness, can the grass people Serving His Highness is one of the best fortunes in life, so how dare you disrespect His Highness? It’s just that Your Highness is a man of ten thousand gold, and you bear the popularity of the world, how can you put yourself in danger by being subdued by the white dragon fish?”
Without the music and singing, Chu Tianshu pricked up his ears and was able to hear the conversation between the two clearly.
"I'm tired of hearing these words!" The man with the golden crown twisted his face and clenched his fists, "Since Mr. Zhen can get Gu out of that yard, why can't he overthrow the false emperor? You must know that the hearts of the people are available, Jiangnan literati I still recognize the orthodoxy of my father in my heart! Mr. Zhen has been operating in the south of the Yangtze River for decades, and he can make the false emperor abdicate with just a wave of his arms! Why is he just perfunctory and send Gu out of Jinling?"
He smiled sinisterly, and stepped forward to step on the fat white man's hand: "I heard that everyone in the south of the Yangtze River knows your name, Lord Jiu, and everyone in the south of the Yangtze River knows it? Then I want to ask Master Jiu for advice. I heard that Master Zhen is collecting beauties from the people in the south of the Yangtze River, and he wants to imitate the past and present beauties to the false emperor?"
"Master Zhen is really good at it, and you still want to have both sides, and play with the royal family? Doesn't Mr. Zhen know that the result of stepping on two boats is to capsize and fall into the water?"
Hearing this, Chu Tianshu naturally knew that this white and fat man was the master Zhen Jiuye she was looking for today.But I didn't expect that there was a great god hidden in Master Zhen Jiu's mansion.
This person sounds like a member of the royal family, and is the current emperor's opponent. The family who failed to win the heir was secretly picked out by the head of the Zhen family, Zhen Yingjia, and hid in the south of the Yangtze River. up.However, looking at the age of the man with the golden crown, it is obvious that he cannot be the emperor's elder brother and the deposed prince.
Based on the words of the man with the golden crown just now, it can be speculated that he is probably the son of the deposed prince, that is, the son of Lao Qiansui, Prince Yizhong, the son of the deposed concubine Zhen, and the grandson of Zhen Yingjia, the head of the Zhen family!
Although the "Dream of Red Mansions" that Chu Tianshu had read did not carefully mention the scene of the royal family's battle for succession, but just looking at this man's mannerisms, Chu Tianshu felt that it was a blessing for all the people in the world that he had no destiny for the throne!
"Your Highness, calm down." Zhen Jiuye's hand was crushed hard by someone, and he was in severe pain, but he didn't dare to struggle to avoid it. He only dared to kneel down and beg for mercy. The transfer to Gusu was for the safety of His Highness. Someone investigated the matter the day before yesterday and almost found His Highness. If His Highness is not sent out of Jinling in time, I am afraid that someone will follow the vine and find His Highness. Please forgive me The Patriarch is painstaking!"
The golden-crowned man was slightly taken aback, and his feet let go. Zhen Jiuye quickly withdrew his hand, shaking slightly behind his back, but the smile on his face was still flattering: "Your Highness, it's getting late, are the grass people waiting for you?"
A smile appeared on the face of the golden-crowned man, as if he wasn't the one who crushed Zhen Jiuye's palm just now: "Get lost, do I need you to serve me?"
Zhen Jiuye also smiled, saluted and exited the door, a man in his 30s with a white face and no beard bowed in with his whisk in his arms.Seeing this man, who was obviously a eunuch, start to help the man with the golden crown undress, Chu Tianshu got up and jumped onto the roof.The man in black, who had been squatting in the corner without moving, also followed behind her, landing silently.
Chu Tianshu revealed two eyes from the shadow of the roof, monitoring Zhen Jiuye's whereabouts.
"Are you looking for Zhen Jiu?" The man in black squatted not far from Chu Tianshu, and asked her softly.
Chu Tianshu pressed his fingers on the clothes casually, and turned on the voice-changing function: "Yes. Look for..." She pointed down at the roof with her thumb, and the man in black looked at her and nodded.
Master Zhen Jiu had already walked out of the yard. Chu Tianshu jumped down with his arms outstretched, passed through the dense rainy night sky for several feet, and was lighter than a real bird. on the big tree.
The man in black behind him stared at her figure dumbfounded, and felt that the lightness skill he had always been proud of was like a dog crawling...
There were obviously fewer guards around Zhen Jiu. Chu Tianshu hid in the shadows and followed him to the main courtyard of the back house.
Seeing the lights come on in the room, Chu Tianshu sneaked up to the edge of the rear window, gently cut a gap with a sharp knife, looked inward with one eye, and saw that Zhen Jiu had changed clothes, wearing homely clothes Bai Lingzhongyi, talking to Mrs. Zhen Jiu who obviously just got up from the bed.
"Master, why is it so late?" Mrs. Zhen Jiu took the tea from the girl and put it in Zhen Jiu's hand with a lazy voice.
The flattering smile on Zhen Jiu's face had all disappeared. At this moment, his white and fat face was tired, but also ruthless: "You said that you found a stunning woman during the day today, eleven or twelve years old?"
"Well, she is the niece of an eunuch's family in a small town. The family has no ability. I have already sent a gift to his family and asked her to come over tomorrow. When the time comes, master, you will know that what I said is true. Mrs. Ninth cheered up, "At her current age, she just happens to be sent to Jinling to teach for two or three years. When she is sent to the palace, she will definitely be favored by His Majesty..."
Zhen Jiu raised a hand to interrupt her words: "She will come tomorrow, if it is true as Madam said, then send her to Your Highness's courtyard."
Mrs. Ninth was shocked: "Master, that would be a pity..." In the hands of that highness, the girl might not live for half a month!
She has been collecting beauties in Jiangnan for several years, and this one is definitely the one with the most potential among the beauties she has seen.Not only is he outstanding in appearance and unique in temperament, but even more rare is his intelligence and calmness.Such a person, as long as she is well trained and taught to let her heart return to the Zhen family, with the connections of the Zhen family, it will be easy to win a favorite concubine, and the Zhen family will be able to continue to be prosperous for decades.
In that way, their husband and wife will also make a great contribution.The old man may have promised that if the matter is done well, he will donate an official to their son.Missing this opportunity, I don't know when I will wait until I want to mention the matter of donating an official to my son in the future!
"There is no other way." Zhen Jiu put down the teacup, pinched the center of her brows with her fingers, and said in a heavy tone, "Your Highness can't sit still... If he insists on going out, I can't stop him. I have to find him a stunning woman. To keep him quiet for a few days."
He heard from the old man that before he took the throne today, he had secretly formed an embroidery team to collect information in the streets and alleys, which provided great help for him to seize the throne.Today, the scale of the embroidery team has been expanded, and it is called the Embroidery Guard.They spread all over the north and south of the river, from the palaces of the princes to the brothels on the wharf, and entered everywhere.
If His Highness refuses to listen to dissuasion and insists on going out, he may be discovered by the embroidered clothes guards in Gusu. Once the matter breaks out, the Zhen family will be guilty of treason!
In the face of the genocide crisis, other things are not important.
Mrs. Ninth was stunned for a while, then sat back on the bed with a sleepy expression: "Then listen to the master."
Zhen Jiu frowned and asked, "What's the situation in that girl's house? Be sure to clean the head and tail, don't cause trouble at this time."
Mrs. Ninth’s voice came from the bed curtain: “I heard from Chen Feng’s family that the petty official’s family didn’t seem to be very happy. To save face, what can a low-ranking official do? The gift is also taken away, and people stay in the mansion, so they can't afford to make trouble."
"Inappropriate." Zhen Jiu stood up, "At such a critical moment, we can't leave any hidden dangers. You give me the address of that family. It just so happens that the Jinling family just sent someone over. The family has done everything, and when the time comes, it will look like a fire, and it will be safe."
Mrs. Jiu responded, and a few maids came in to help Zhen Jiu change and take a bath.
Chu Tianshu listened to their husband and wife's words completely, and naturally he could tell that the beautiful girl that the couple said would be delivered to the Highness's courtyard tomorrow was referring to her.
Especially when Chu Tianshu heard that Zhen Jiu not only planned to use her as a gift for others to play with, but also wanted to kill Zhen Shiyin's family, Chu Tianshu couldn't control the murderous intent in his heart anymore.
If it wasn't for his rationality, Chu Tianshu would have jumped into the room with his sword in his hand and cut the couple into eighty-eight, sixty-four sections, and then treated him in his own way, burning the Zhen Mansion to nothingness.
But think about how easy it is to kill this couple, but they are just the pawns of some people. If you want to completely wipe out this kind of thing, you have to start from the root.Zhen Yingjia, and that shitty Highness, can't escape!
Chu Tianshu looked back at the bedroom of Zhen Jiu and his wife, with deep black eyes.The next moment, she flew up, skimmed the dark rainy night sky, and flew to the courtyard where the man with the golden crown was.
Guards patrolled the courtyard in an endless stream, and the woman's faint cry of pain and the man's unscrupulous laughter came from the main room.
The servants carrying delicious food and wine hurried past the corridor, not daring to lift their eyes.
There seemed to be a black shadow flashing from the corner of his eyes, the servants only dared to turn their eyeballs to scan left and right, and found that it was just a leaf falling, so they entered the door with lowered eyes, placed the wine and vegetables on the kang table, and then retreated silently.
He didn't dare to take one more step, and he didn't even dare to use force to catch his breath.
Those singers, dancers, girls, and musicians who served His Highness just now didn't know what they heard or saw, and now they have all entered the underworld... These servants don't know if they can live until tomorrow...
Chu Tianshu jumped out from the backyard, crossed two streets, and stopped in the shadow of the corner: "What do you want to do with me?"
The man in black hid in another shadow: "What did you do during the dinner?"
The white and fat man lowered his face and waved his hands to the outside, all the singers, dancers and musicians stood up and retreated out without a sound.At the position with his back to the man in the golden crown, the white fat man made a gesture of raising his palm and slashing from top to bottom to the guard outside the door, and then he knelt down in front of the man in the golden crown with a smile and said, "Your Highness, can the grass people Serving His Highness is one of the best fortunes in life, so how dare you disrespect His Highness?
