Chapter 517 The male protagonist's cannon fodder cousin (40)
I saw that he had starry eyebrows and sharp eyes, his face was like powder, his face was like a crown of jade, and his appearance was better than that of Pan An.
Before co-writing, he not only showed weakness by hiding his skills, but also disguised himself?
Everyone was shocked: Wow! Accountant... No, Hero Sikong turns out to be so handsome!
Xu Yin: "..."
Sorry! She took back what she just said, Jade Faced Shura is indeed worthy of his name!
"Farewell!" Sikong cupped his hands towards her, picked up the three corpses on the ground, and was about to leave.
Xu Yin suddenly remembered something: "Wait a minute, were you the one who rescued us in the other courtyard two years ago?"
"Uh-huh." Sikong snorted and did not deny it.
Xu Yin asked curiously: "Who did you learn your kung fu from?"
It looked like she was ready to move.
If she had such a handsome and superb martial arts, coupled with her own divine power, would she still worry about her life being insecure?
"You want to learn?" Sikong Jun raised his eyebrows and looked her over a few times, "I'm afraid not. You are already past the best age for practicing martial arts, and with your weak bones, it will be difficult for you to become a great person."
"..."
You can quit! Thank you!
After Sikong left, Wang Huyuan and his men cleaned the main courtyard of Wanhua Villa inside and out to prevent the girl from getting sick.
In fact, Xu Yin's mind was not at all on the three gangsters who were solved by Sikong. She had been wondering about the identity of the mastermind behind the scenes that Sikong was unwilling to reveal.
Speaking of which, the mastermind behind the scenes is probably the real culprit who sent his parents to Jiuquan.
I had always thought they were bandits. When I went to pay homage to my parents, I was informed at their graves that the bandits had been eradicated by the government and that my parents could rest in peace.
Now we know that the bandits were just scapegoats, and the real culprit is still at large.
If we don't find out, how can we let our parents rest in peace!
And the old housekeeper has been blaming himself for this.
I always feel that it was because he picked up a child that the master and his wife died.
So after Sikong left, he fell seriously ill and his mental state was not very good. He completely lost the energy he had when picking lotus pods.
Xu Yin really wanted Xu Kui to come back and take a look at the housekeeper. A heart ailment requires heart medicine.
The housekeeper's illness is caused by deep guilt and self-blame for the master and his wife, as well as longing for his adopted son.
Xu Yin came to visit the housekeeper, holding his old withered hand that looked like old tree bark, and asked: "Do you want to see Xu Kui? How about, after you recover, I will take you to Beijing to see him?"
The old housekeeper perked up at first, then shook his head, and his eyes dimmed: "So what if I see you? His father is Prince Rui, and his home is Prince Rui's Mansion. He can find his relatives and return to his own home, old slave
It’s too late to be happy for him. But, girl, this old slave feels uncomfortable, so uncomfortable! My master and his wife were killed by this slave..."
Seeing him burst into tears, Xu Yin felt equally unspeakably uncomfortable.
I want to say something, but I don’t know where to start.
At this time, any words of comfort seem so pale.
"Butler, don't do this." Zi Yuan couldn't help but say with red eyes, "The girl finally got over the matter with the master and madam. Don't let her go back again."
The housekeeper nodded and hurriedly wiped away his tears and wiped his nose.
"Girl! Girl!"
Wang Huyuan shouted outside.
Xu Yin wiped the moisture from the corners of her eyes, walked out and asked, "What's the matter?"
"Girl! Good news! The Seven Star Gate has been destroyed by Tianji Pavilion!"
Xu Yin looked confused: "...What do you mean?"
"The three people who almost hurt the girl that day were from the Qixing Sect. The assassins who were lurking in our house and in the village were also from the Qixing Sect. If I guessed correctly, the bandits who killed the master and his wife were also from the Qixing Sect.
Someone pretended to be someone else. Now that the Seven Star Sect has been taken down by Tianji Pavilion, it can be said that I can comfort the spirit of the master and his wife in heaven."
Xu Yin always felt that the master of the Seven Star Sect did not seem to be the mastermind behind this incident.
But she couldn't figure it out for the time being, so she planned to go back to Xujiacun and talk about this matter in front of her parents' graves.
"Girl, I will go with you."
The old housekeeper insisted on going, so Xu Yin took him along.
It was getting dark when they arrived in Xujia Village, so she asked Wang Huyuan to prepare some incense and tributes, and planned to worship on the mountain in the morning.
After Xu Kui left, Xu Yin felt that she had lost both her left and right arms.
Sikong also left, and the accounting clerk in the mansion had to be recruited again.
This time, two capable people ran away, and she was the one who was tired!
Fortunately, Xu Cai, who was led by Xu Kui, is not as clever as Xu Kui, but he is diligent, responsible, and methodical. Now he is in charge of the affairs of the wine shop, and the fragrance shop is first managed by the village chief.
But the village chief still had to be busy with matters on several hills, and he didn't know much about fragrance. He was worried about leaving it to an outsider, Xu Yin. This time, she discussed with Zi Yuan and Hong Qian that one of them should stay in Xu Yin.
Jiacun manages the fragrance shop.
The two maids were very conflicted. They wanted to stay with the girl, but also wanted to do things for her. In the end, Xu Yin simply asked them to play rock-paper-scissors, "Whoever wins, who stays."
In the end, Ziyuan won.
She knelt down and kowtowed to Xu Yin: "Thank you for the promotion, girl!"
"Don't be in a hurry to thank me. You might be so busy that you won't even have time to drink water." Xu Yin said with a smile, then looked at Hong Qian, "Hong Qian, don't be anxious, wait until the greenhouse vegetables become large-scale.
We will open a four-season vegetable shop, and you will be the shopkeeper."
"Thank you girl!"
A night of silence.
The next day, when it was a little dark, the village chief's son ran back from the county seat covered in morning dew to report:
"Oh, my mother! Something big has happened!"
"Dad! Dad! The sky has changed! The Holy Emperor passed away, and the one who succeeded was not the prince, but Prince Rui! The new emperor ascended the throne, showed compassion for all people, and said he would reduce taxes for us!"
When they heard about the tax reduction, all the early risers in the village howled with excitement.
"..."
Xu Yin suddenly felt blessed. She seemed to have guessed who the mastermind behind Sikong's story was.
In the original text, the Holy Emperor used the male protagonist to take over power, and what he took over was not just the power held by the old ministers, but also part of the military power in the hands of King Rui.
At that time, a book friend seemed to have complained: If King Rui had a son, and these old ministers would follow King Rui to rebel, what would happen to the emperor?
Thinking about it now, the deceased emperor wouldn't have harmed Prince Rui's heirs because he was afraid of the relationship between Prince Rui and those old ministers, and the power they held, to prevent them from joining forces to rebel, right?
After paying homage to her elders and returning to the other courtyard to rest, Xu Yin was still thinking about this matter.
Based on this reasoning, it seems that Xu Kui is really the only one in Prince Rui's Mansion.
The children of King Rui's concubines were either daughters, or they died before the age of seven. Hiss - the more you analyze it, the colder your back becomes.
Suddenly a chuckle came from the beam.
The hairs all over Xu Yin's body stood up.
She bravely raised her head and saw the person on the beam clearly. She was so angry that she lost her mind. She picked up the flower vase on the table and threw it towards the beam.
"You really love being a gentleman so much?"
It almost gave her a heart attack.
"Oh, you are so strong!" Sikong easily caught the vase, jumped down from the beam, and landed lightly on the ground.
"I was worried that the girl would scare me out of my wits, so I came here to give you courage."
He put the vase back on the table, sat down, and glanced at the table with a look of disgust in his eyes:
"Why are they all sweet snacks? No peanuts, fried soybeans or anything like that?"
Xu Yin: "..."
What is your sister’s boudoir? A restaurant? You’ve even ordered food!
"I came back with good intentions to solve the riddle for you, and you're just treating me like this?" Sikong lowered his hand to Nunu's vase, then raised his lips and smiled, "Don't you want to know the truth?"
"I'm pretty much guessing."
After all, Xu Yin still went out.
She wanted to take a nap just now, but today she had to pay homage, so she got up early and learned the shocking news about the change of dynasty. She was a little overworked. After sweeping the tomb, her temples were sore and swollen, so she didn't stay in the room.
Maid.
When Hong Qian came in to deliver tea as instructed by the girl, she was so shocked when she saw Sikong that she almost knocked over the tea tray.
After setting out the refreshments, go and call Wang Huyuan immediately.
"Hero Sikong is in the girl's room?" Wang Huyuan was also surprised when he heard this, "No one from the nursing team noticed?"
Then he scratched his head and said with an honest smile: "That's right! Unless Master Sikong wants us to discover it, otherwise, with his achievements, we will never discover it."
Hong Qian: "..."
I called you to ask you to quickly organize manpower to protect the girl, but you are here to praise the other person's power?
