Things in this world are often like waves, with ups and downs and ups and downs.
Hulong Villa suddenly lost its three secret agents, and the No. 1 secret agent was still recovering from his injuries. As a result, his strength, intelligence, and power were greatly reduced in an instant.
The new governor Liu Jin is not a polite person. In a short period of time, he has occupied more than 300 imperial estates in the name of the emperor. The income from this imperial estate is less than a few thousand taels, but more than tens of thousands taels. The key is the impact of this matter
There are just too many people.
Such greedy behavior naturally aroused the vigilance of the courtiers and civil servants, and Liu Jin was constantly impeached. But not only did he escape unscathed, he also took control of another army in Kyoto: the Fifth Army Camp, with strong troops and horses.
In the outer court, Liu Jin used Jiao Fang, a scholar in the cabinet, as his minions to persecute courtiers who had opposed him. He even began to control the promotion, demotion, appointment and removal of civil and military officials, so much so that all officials knelt down and worshiped him when they saw him.
He was so powerful and popular that he was called the "living emperor" by the world, while the Zhengde Emperor Zhu Houzhao was called the "sitting emperor". The meaning is very simple. This emperor is similar to the so-called paper-paste pavilion elder in some dynasties, and he is an auspicious person.
things.
…
"Gugu~"
In the palace, Cao Zhengchun has been free recently and started to raise birds. Firstly, to cultivate his sentiments. Secondly, after being trained by his little ancestor, the birds are good at gathering information, and are even better than humans most of the time.
Folk rumors say that when he slaughtered his family, he even shook the eggs and dug the mouse holes, let alone a bird. But in reality, who would be too free to pay attention to a passing bird?
Except for the little ancestor.
When he was fine, let alone a bird, even a mosquito passing by in front of him would be photographed and played with for an hour.
"Hoo, hoo~" A slight snoring sounded on his shoulder.
Cao Zhengchun breathed a sigh of relief. He only dared to complain a few words when his little ancestor was resting. Otherwise, ordinary people would not dare to look at his eyes that could see through people's hearts.
"Father!" Pi Xiaotian came in to report.
Cao Zhengchun raised his hand and quickly led him out quietly. He walked dozens of steps away from the door before asking softly: "Have you found out the information?"
Pi Xiaotian nodded: "It has been clearly investigated that Miss Su Xin was indeed arrested by the people sent by Eunuch Liu.
Unexpectedly, when it was transported back to Kyoto, it happened to be accidentally encountered by Princess Yunluo and the Prince Consort. They snatched it and sent it back to Hulong Villa.
That's why during this period, Eunuch Liu became furious and punished many officials."
Cao Zhengchun stood with his hands behind his hands, looked to the east, and sighed: "Tsk, tsk, tsk, I really didn't expect that this Zhu Tiedan is such a caring person. It's interesting, interesting."
Pi Xiaotian stood aside silently. He was a eunuch, and he was not interested in love at all.
He just wants to make money!
When I get older, I will adopt an adopted son to carry on the family line.
After sighing for a while, Cao Zhengchun asked: "What did the world's number one miracle doctor say when he went to diagnose and treat Miss Su Xin?"
"With all her meridians cut off, there is no way to recover. Without Tianxiang Cardamom, she will always be a living dead!" Pi Xiaotian replied.
"Haha, interesting.
Send someone to inform the Lord Shen that I have the second fragrant cardamom in my hand and ask him to come to the palace to find me in person." Cao Zhengchun said with a smile.
"yes!"
When Pi Xiaotian left, Cao Zhengchun was in a good mood.
After fighting with Zhu Tiedan for a lifetime, he finally won.
This time not only did he have to bow his head, but he also had to work hard to do a great deed for himself.
…
Hulong Villa, backyard.
Today he welcomed back his mistress for the first time.
In the bedroom, Zhu Wulan looked lovingly at the woman lying on the bed.
for a long time.
"Su Xin, it's all my fault for making you go through so many disasters and setbacks for no reason. Fortunately, the imperial doctor said that the natural aroma of cardamom is very effective, and your body is still healthy.
Otherwise, I really don't know how to make up for my mistakes.
can you forgive me?"
Shangguan Haitang walked in and shouted twice: "Father, foster father!"
After a while, Zhu Wuwu realized what he was doing, turned around, and smiled bitterly: "It's really rude for my adoptive father to still be so lost at his old age."
Shangguan Haitang didn't take it seriously and took out a piece of paper from his arms: "Father, this is what Cao Zhengchun sent just now. I have checked it and there is no problem."
Although Miss Su Xin has been found, she is now only responsible for the affairs of Hulong Villa, and she still doesn't care about anything else and has no control over it.
There seemed to be many new people in the village, but she had never seen them before.
Zhu ignored the letter and opened it.
[Lord Shenhou:
Zhengchun heard that your sweetheart has arrived in your mansion, but it seems that he can't be alive and kicking. That's a pity, hehe...]
Although the iron calligraphy and silver hooks in the handwriting were very penetrating, the lines were full of ridicule, which really made him angry.
After reading the letter and putting it away, Zhu Wuwu frowned: "Cao Zhengchun said that the second natural cardamom is in his hand, and there is news about the third natural cardamom. He asked me to see him tomorrow."
Haitang was shocked: "This is clearly the Hongmen Banquet. He has already laid a trap to invite you into the trap. Now that Dongchang is so powerful, Liu Laogou even dares to claim to be the acting emperor.
If you, my foster father, fall again, the entire court and the entire Ming Dynasty will be doomed!"
Zhu Wuwu clenched his fists with a firm look on his face: "If those two heavenly fragrant cardamom are in his hands, then even if it's Daoshan Oil Pot, I will definitely go!
In my heart, the world and the country are not as important as Su Xin!"
…
Early the next morning.
Inner palace, internal supervision.
Zhu ignored the fact that he was alone and strode over. He saw Cao Zhengchun standing at the door from a distance.
When he saw the visitor, Cao Zhengchun directly bent down and bowed: "The Lord God is here, Zhengchun can't go far enough to greet you, forgive me, forgive me!"
Politeness is the elegance that is engraved in his bones.
A smile appeared on Zhu Wuli's face. After all, he was asking for something from someone. At this time, it would be useless to put on any airs as a god, so he bowed in return.
"Eunuch Cao, please!"
"Marquis Shen, please!"
The two of them walked forward, Zhu Wuwu was observing the surrounding situation all the way, and was prepared for the negotiation to fail.
He still has big things to do and must not die.
"Marquis Shen, my place is not as majestic as Hulong Villa. Please don't laugh, Marquis Shen." Cao Zhengchun said with a smile.
Zhu Wuwu replied: "It is said that when Eunuch Cao was the governor of the East Factory, all his money was spent on institutions. You can tell even if a fly flies in. I really want to broaden my horizons."
"Haha, the Marquis is really good at joking. I am honored that you can come here to attend the banquet." Cao Zhengchun smiled.
Entering the room, Zhu Wuwu sat in the first place on the right hand side, remained motionless, smiled and said nothing.
Today he was going to see what Cao Zhengchun was going to do.
When it comes to martial arts, he is not afraid of anyone.
"Meow~" The yellow shadow flashed, and a little yellow cat appeared on Cao Zhengchun's shoulder, and then found a comfortable position and rolled around.
Zhu Wuwu's expression condensed.
Haitang was indeed right. He was so fast. This cat was a life-long rival.
The key is that this cat did not stand on his side. If there is a chance in the future, he must get rid of this serious problem.
"Come here, serve tea!"
"No need, Eunuch Cao, you and I have been fighting for more than twenty years, so there is no need to say more polite words.
I want heavenly fragrant cardamom, you give me a price, no matter what it is, even if it is my position, as long as you want it, I can give it to you." Zhu Wuwu said firmly.
"Haha~" Cao Zhengchun laughed happily, and then slowly took out a treasure box from his arms: "The Lord Shen is too worried, but..."
"But what?" Zhu Wuwu was a little impatient.
At this moment, Cao Zhengchun looked so mean, he really wanted to hit someone.
Is this really so happy?
Cao Zhengchun took the small box and turned it around twice in front of Zhu Wuwu. Seeing that his fists were gradually clenched, he chuckled, stretched out his orchid fingers, and said slowly: "But you can't eat cardamom casually on this day.
Lord Shen must know that the only three pills left in the world can only save one person, and you have already used the first one.
This magical medicine, after taking the first pill, can keep your appearance forever, but you will fall into a coma.
After taking the second pill, all diseases will be gone and the person will be as awake as ever. Haha, but there is one condition, the third day of cardamom must be taken within a year, otherwise the person will return to drowsiness and never have the chance to wake up."
Zhu ignored his seriousness and asked, "What does Manager Cao mean?"
Cao Zhengchun smiled and said: "The Lord God is busy today, so just accept this second one."
There was finally a trace of surprise on Zhu Wuwu's face: "What about the third one?"
"That's what I want to talk to Shenhou. You and I have been fighting for more than twenty years. You also know that I am soft-hearted and kind-hearted.
So far, only a handful of people have died in my hands, and they were all treacherous and evil people.
But I didn't expect that even if all the civil and military officials met together to fight Eunuch Liu, why would they blame me for all those bad things?
Isn't this bullying the good? I feel wronged. Even when I wake up at night, I am tossing and turning. I can't figure it out, and I can't understand it.
What's happening to this world? Don't even good people and loyal ministers like me have a way to survive?
Is this fair, is this reasonable?"
Cao Zhengchun looked sad and angry, obviously he couldn't understand this matter at all.
"Meow~"
Mao Mao Mao was also very dissatisfied. Those officials were so audacious that they dared to bully his shit shoveling officer.
presumptuous!
"No, it just so happens that I heard that you, Shenhou, have been friends with civil and military officials for a long time. In addition, the Iron Claw Flying Eagle, the second gear head of Dongchang, has a close relationship with you. In this case, I thought of using the third
For the news of three heavenly fragrant cardamom, Lord Shenhou, please help me with a small thing.
As for this second one, take it as my sincerity!" Cao Zhengchun said with a smile.
Zhu Wuwu was startled, and for the first time he was a little panicked: "Eunuch Cao, please don't lie. The fact that I have good relations with hundreds of officials is purely slander. As for the Iron Claw Flying Eagle, I have never met him once. I don't know what you are saying."
Where did you hear the news?
If you want to inflict a crime, what can you do?
As for what Mr. Cao said, please tell me that I will go through fire and water without hesitation!"
Cao Zhengchun didn't take it seriously.
This man, it's all the same, he obviously can't do it, but he still has to find a weird reason.
"The thing I want Shen Hou to do is very simple, that is to clear all the cases I have been involved in in the past, the Criminal Department, the Official Department, Hulong Villa, the relevant history of the Hanlin Academy, and all the files about me in the East Factory.
I hope I don’t exist in history.” Cao Zhengchun said lightly.
"Impossible, this is too ridiculous!" Zhu ignored and refused.
"Haha, Lord Shen, don't be in a hurry to refuse. You can take this heavenly fragrant cardamom first, and then you can consider what I said after you go back and enjoy the gentle countryside.
I am really tired of this worldly strife and just want to retire in peace and security.
I am over sixty years old, already over half a century old, how many more years do I have left in my life? I’m tired, so tired!”
Cao Zhengchun smiled and began to express his feelings about life.
After hearing these words, Zhu Wuwu looked deeply at his old rival of more than 20 years.
How much does this guy know and what arrangements has he made? Or is he really tired?
Cao Zhengchun met the Lord Shen's gaze with a calm expression, and he laughed unconsciously, very honest and honest.
"Hehe, hehehe~"
"Haha~" Zhu Wulan raised the corner of his mouth and smiled.
"Hahaha~" Finally the two looked at each other and laughed.
The little yellow cat opened its big blue eyes and its golden tail swayed, looking a little confused.
What are these two laughing at?
Human beings are really complicated, but the cat world is better. One punch makes a good brother.
…
Suburbs, bamboo forest.
Guihai Yidao took a pile of clothes, carefully checked and rummaged through them, and soon started tearing apart the pile of relics excitedly.
These are the relics left by his father, and among them there must be the supreme martial arts practiced by his father in Guihai Bailian: Dominate the World.
He must find this most powerful sword technique.
He has vowed to avenge his father since he was a child, so he practices martial arts so hard. Although he doesn't know who the enemy who killed his father is, he seems to have another goal in practicing martial arts.
That is to protect Begonia!
Begonia is very good, and I feel relieved after just one cut.
If there is a hero who dominates the world, he is confident that when he encounters that nasty little yellow cat again, he will definitely be able to fight.
When the time comes, he will tell Haitang and everyone that he has the ability to protect Haitang and allow him to live a stable life.
for a long time.
Guihai Yida suddenly threw all the clothes in his hands into the fire. He was in a crazy state and shouted loudly: "No, nothing!"
Why, why didn't dad leave the sword manual? Where is the sword manual!"
Angry punched the innocent bamboo next to him a few times, turned around with a knife, his eyes were startled, and there were four big words on the burning clothes: Dominate the world!
He hurriedly took out his clothes from the fire, Yi Dao laughed loudly: "Hahaha, I found the knife manual! I found the knife manual!"
"Finding doesn't mean practicing!" Suddenly, a familiar voice sounded in his ears.
"Dad?" Guihai Yidao quickly looked into the darkness.
Over the years, every time he was at his most desperate, his father would always appear and encourage him, and his father would always be watching him.
"The training process of Xiong Ba Tian Xia is extremely difficult. Finding the sword manual is only the first step. To truly understand this move and practice this move, you have to endure endless pain. Can you possibly bear it?"
"Dad, the child can bear it!" Gui Hai said firmly with a knife.
"This is my son, Guihai Bailian." After saying that, the most familiar figure in Yidao's heart gradually disappeared.
"Dad, I will definitely train to dominate the world and avenge you!" Yi Dao shouted loudly.
Of course, there is also protecting Haitang and teaching that extremely hateful cat a lesson.
He actually snatched his crabapple! Unforgivable!
Just wait, wait for the day when he becomes a master of swordsmanship!
At night, the sword energy raged in the bamboo forest, and countless bamboos were chopped down and collapsed.
Finally, a sword shot up into the sky, and a five-foot-long sword sword appeared in his hand, which was invincible.
"boom!"
Looking at the split earth, he laughed with a knife: "Hahaha, I have become the world's lord!", then suddenly felt dizzy and fainted.
