Picking chrysanthemum

live.

"You son of a bitch, the money is given to everyone by the Lord, take it out quickly."

"No, it's mine, the Lord gave it to me." The little beggar didn't want to let go, and received two fists, both of which hit his stomach, which made him almost vomit out of gall.

"Hey, you little bastard, your bones are quite hard, anyway, your father is dying, why don't you give the money to the uncles, we will support you—"

The crowd laughed loudly, and they were about to find out the money string from the little beggar who fell to the ground, but they saw him standing up like a carp, and ran away.

Gao Fan didn't expect the little beggar to have such foot strength, he had already walked half of the East Market, and the little beggar was still able to find him.Looking at the blood on the tip of the mouth, was he beaten?Bullied by other beggars?

"Master, those evil beggars want to steal your reward money."

Gao Fan smiled, how can I count it as mine if I gave it to you? "Although I pity you and give you money, I have no reason to protect you to the end. Is it possible that when I go out in the future, I have to throw one coin into every broken bowl to show that there is no discrimination, huh?"

"If the Lord hadn't rewarded me, I wouldn't have the money, and I wouldn't have been beaten."

"Tsk—it's my fault instead."

The little beggar shook his head: "No, I think since these money are the source of disaster, it's better to return them to the master."

"The things I gave away have never been returned."

"Then the money is mine?"

"Of course." Gao Fan frowned, not knowing what the little beggar was struggling with.

"But I just donated the money to the monastery in the name of the Lord. In this way, the Lord owes me money, doesn't he?"

"..." Gao Fan was speechless, the little beggar was trying to trick him for a long time.Unexpectedly, this kind of thing will happen again, but he has some interest in playing with this child. "What do you want? Want me to 'repay' the money?"

The little beggar said: "Money is man-made and the most unreliable. I want my father to help me hire a scooter to take my father to the hospital, and then I can join Wu Chengjun."

At such a young age, he still knows a lot. If it hadn't been for someone who cared to teach him to say these words, he would be really talented and intelligent, and his family inheritance is appropriate.

"You are so short and weak, and you still want to join Wu Chengjun? Be careful of being thrown out."

"My mother died in Zhongliu when Zhou Guo entered the village... I heard that there was another war at my house in the west, and Wu Chengjun couldn't recruit people... They were in charge of food and housing and distributed weapons."

Gao Fan looked the little beggar up and down, nodded and said: "You are very energetic, but you are too young. Wu Chengjun doesn't recruit children under the age of 17. You should give up your heart." .

"I'll be seventeen at the end of the month!"

Gao Fan was amazed, since this man grew up eating Guanyin soil, he could already open a two-stone bow and hunt on horseback when he was seventeen.He helped the boy who looked as thin as a child up, and said: "A man with ambition is a good man. Your father and I will send someone to take care of him. I look forward to your performance in the army in the future."

"You, you are—"

Gao Fan chuckled, "I'm the commander-in-chief of that gang of ruffians."

"Cheng—His Royal Highness Cheng Wang," the young man buried his head in the ground for a long time and did not dare to raise his head. Since then, he has dedicated his life's loyalty.

Chaos

In the garden of the palace, the fragrance was fragrant. Yuan Song picked up a small stone and threw it towards the koi pond. The stone outlined an afterimage in mid-air and then sank into the pond without causing any splashes.The koi wagged its tail and scattered, and the golden scales floated, sparkling.

A frightened bird flew by, and its shrill cry echoed in the air, Yuan Song couldn't help but clenched his fingers tightly.

Gao Fan is his elder sister-in-law, and he has been friends with him since childhood, so he regards Chengwang's mansion as his own home.He looked around at the carved railings and painted walls, and knew very well the truth of "If you don't succeed, you will become benevolent". If you become a king and raise an army, if you fail, you will die—your family will be destroyed or even... the country will be destroyed.

The rumors of King Cheng's "conspiracy to usurp" have been raging for more than a year or two. Even if it was true that people with intentions deliberately misrepresented it at the beginning, but at this point, the thorns in the hearts of the emperor and King Cheng are probably not shallow, and fake ones have to be faked. Really!It would be pedantic and stupid to entrust one's wealth and life to the shallow brotherhood of that day's family!

The Yuansong family was originally descendants of the clan of the previous dynasty, but they were not liquidated by the founding emperor only because of their distant blood relationship and voluntary surrender in Nacheng.Their family has always been obedient and life-saving, they do not form cliques or cliques, but this time the boat capsized, with a sister-in-law, plus the friendship he formed with King Cheng since childhood, it is impossible not to be regarded as the same rope The grasshopper in the sky... Besides, in all fairness, he is more willing to help the kind and righteous Gao Fan than the cruel and unscrupulous king in the palace.

Yuan Song has made up his mind to stand in the team, but he still can't figure out Gao Fan's thoughts.

At this time, Gao Fan came back. Looking at the tall and straight figure in the court, he guessed about Yuan Song's intentions. In fact, he already had a conclusion in his mind, but there were too many variables, and he didn't want to make it too early.

"Hey, brother-in-law, you are back!"

"What, what happened to those soldiers?" Gao Fan said as he sat down. There was warm tea prepared early in the morning on the stone table. He had developed a habit of drinking tea in the past few years. He drank three in succession.

"Right! How do you know? I came back specially to tell you."

Gao Fan said lightly: "Guess."

Yuan Song sighed while supporting his forehead, and complained: "As soon as you left, the supervisor Liu, who will be the temple, went up to Zhezi and falsely accused the group of soldiers as escaped slaves who had built the Jinyang Palace for the emperor. All of them should be executed, because it is not suitable to see blood because of the birth date of the favorite concubine. Now they are only locked in the prison. The entire Jinyang prison is full. Don't stop, this is not treating people as human beings!"

An unbearable look appeared on Gao Fan's face, he gritted his teeth and said, "How do you know it's a false accusation?"

Yuan Song choked immediately, and he retorted: "I—they looked like Lian Jiazi, and the calluses on his hands were also made by playing with knives and guns all year round. How could it be a servant who repaired the palace wall..."

Gao Fan said: "In the third year of Tianquan, the emperor was defeated in Luoyang. These soldiers are left over from that battle. With his temperament, do you think he will stay? And me, I rushed to rescue at that time, and I was there. Yire wanted to save the lives of these remnant soldiers, but in the end he let them serve to eliminate their crimes. It was only later that I realized that I did not save them, but made their lives worse than death. I felt guilty and secretly sent someone to take them out of Jinyang Palace. Released and incorporated into the barracks, falsely claiming that they were called soldiers—"

……

"It was also at that time that I really saw that person clearly. He didn't kill these people because of the crimes of defeating the army, but to cover up the fact that he was defeated by his own army! Xian, he is afraid of listening to gossip, so everyone who saw him defeated should be killed, of course, including me."

Yuan Song couldn't calm down for a while.There were 1 soldiers when they joined the army, half of them were defeated. After serving in the army, there were only a thousand survivors, and less than a hundred healthy ones... It's too absurd, how can it not be shocking.

He has experienced hundreds of battles, and he already regards human life as lighter than a feather. After a big battle, it is common for more than a thousand people to die. He punched so hard that his chest hurt.

Zhengfu was convicted outside the battlefield, the young and strong were lost between the palace walls, the virtuous and loyal have not been heard of the saints, Yi Ya is in the golden palace, he can't feel at ease inside, and he can't resist his humiliation outside, Da Qi!I'm afraid it's at stake!

He said in a trembling voice, "Don't we care about how we deal with it?"

Gao Fan said: "The one who is a servant of the country is the master of the country. You and I have done our best this time, so there is no need to feel guilty."

"This……"

"I have my own countermeasures, you go back first, don't let your sister worry."

Yuan Song couldn't guess Gao Fan's plan, but he believed what Gao Fan said. When he heard his mention of his sister, a heroic female general in full military uniform appeared in his mind, and he felt much more comfortable. "By the way, my sister asked me to tell you that there is a war in Luoyang. Although the emperor is tyrannical, the country's hatred is the most important thing. You should stabilize the situation there as soon as possible. The Jinyang escort is guarded by our Yuan family."

Gao Fan nodded: "Your elder sister is really caring, does she have anything else to say?"

"She also said that it doesn't count if you lose to you in the school field. When the real chapter is seen on the battlefield, her military achievements may not necessarily be less than yours."

"Then I'll wait and see—A Tong's demeanor."

After Yuan Song bid farewell, the gloom in Gao Fan's heart began to accumulate again, making him almost unable to breathe freely.He picked up the teapot to drink some more tea to reduce the noise, but found that the pot was empty.

"Come here, change the pot of tea."

Gao Fan picked up the tea brought by the servant and took a sip. He frowned and asked, "New tea?"

The servant said: "The tea leaves brought back by the lord have been used up. This was brought by the servant yesterday. It is said that it is only produced in Nanchen, but it is popular in the north and is quite praised."

Gao Fan threw the teacup on the table in disgust, thinking, who would care about where this tea came from and how much it was worth?He didn't like this kind of bland or even slightly bitter things since he was a child. It was only because Dong Li made it himself that he could drink a little bit of sweetness.

These people are really tireless in guessing his likes and dislikes.

"I just remember, Feng Jian was descended from Chenyi County, south of Tianquan in the early years, to my grand qi. He has a daughter. What position is he in the palace now?"

"She is still a noble person, but it is said that His Majesty dotes on her very much, so I will bring her with me when I go to Jinyang this time."

"Old man Feng is trying to cunning the three caves of rabbits, and he has the right and wrong. Hmph, how can Gu not follow his wishes, you send the tea to Jinyang, and tell the emperor that Gu Xiao can't bear the thousand gold tea presented by Mr. Feng. Today, I borrow flowers to offer Buddha, and give it to the emperor." Offer to drink with His Majesty, oh no, rinse your mouth."
