Chapter 12

Chapter 12 "Four Happinesses Come to the Door"

The four girls who were trained by Er Niang were all thoughtful, good at playing, playing, and singing, and each had their own strengths. Zheng Xiu asked them to do things, and they were confident and confident.

Moreover, the secret code between him and "Shunfeng Er" was only understood by them. To say the least, even if there were traitors in his Zheng family, they would not know what the secret code meant.

In the dead of night, Zheng Xiu did not enter the ghost world, but activated [Wandering Soul] and wandered through the night.

The ability of [Spirit Wandering] is similar to the "spirit leaving the body" in the novel, but Zheng Xiu needs to further explore to what extent it can be achieved in the end.

To be honest, Zheng Xiu is in prison now, but his mind is extremely excited.

Whether the ability brought by this "prisoner" is a mysterious magic or a miraculous magic, Zheng Xiu has not yet understood it. But as long as it can make him transcend the world, it can be regarded as fulfilling Zheng Xiu's wish for many years.

After years of ups and downs, Zheng Xiu could see clearly that imperial power is like a big mountain. No matter how much money you have, if you cannot protect it, it is not yours.

Even if Zheng Xiu'an sticks to his job, he secretly spends a lot of money to recruit strange people, retired generals, and alchemists to form "Shunfeng Er", "Clear Vision", and "Brotherhood".

In the past twenty years, there has been peace in the world, but Zheng Xiu still raised them as idlers, all he wanted was peace of mind.

He even took the initiative to pay 10% more tax to the Ministry of Household Affairs every year to replenish the national treasury.

It's different now.

The almost transparent body easily passes through the wall.

Zheng Xiu could feel that A Piao had a vague connection with his true body, and he could switch between the two at any time.

However, once his attention returns to the main body, that is, when he opens his eyes, no matter how far away he is, Ah Piao will be sucked back with a swish.

After going in and out several times, Zheng Xiu moved freely and was slippery and slippery.

[Shenyou] As the name suggests, it seems that it can only swim.

Ah Piao is similar to a real "ghost", translucent, has clothes, and can pass through any physical obstacles.

However, Zheng Xiu is not afraid of light or fire, which is a bit different from the legendary unclean thing.

Also, let’s talk about Ah Piao’s range of activities.

If the imperial city with a square layout is divided into nine palaces.

The prison camp where Dizi Prison No. 1 is located is in the northeastern city.

The palace is in the middle, facing south.

The range that A Piao can move is the Northeast City District, the North City District, the East District, outside the city wall, and finally a part of the palace.

Although as a Piao, I have no sense of touch, so I cannot personally feel the pleasure of flying freely in mid-air with my arms open, or feeling the breeze caressing my armpit hair.

But Zheng Xiu, as an ordinary rich man, could fly around the sky in the body of Ah Piao. This was a joyful experience that he had never experienced in his two lifetimes. For a while, Boss Zheng was having a great time.

After playing for more than an hour, around midnight, when the watchmen at the market in the streets and alleys of the city rang the gong, Zheng Xiu's joy subsided. After calming down, he felt a strong sense of fatigue coming over him.

Zheng Xiu once again felt the force coming from his physical body.

"Being a Piao is very energy-consuming."

The ability to travel in a fugue has been fully explored, and he is unbearably sleepy. Mr. Zheng plans to return.

At this time, an exquisite carriage ran out of the palace with rhythmic steps and crisp hooves.

Royal palace?

In mid-air, Zheng Xiu was slightly startled and stopped floating.

It stands to reason that at this moment, the palace has already been under a curfew, and even the maids and concubines in the palace are not allowed to go out at will unless they have a decree to leave the palace.

During the curfew, the palace was heavily guarded. Let alone people, even a bird that crossed the inner city wall might be shot down and used as a midnight snack.

Remembering the visit of Master Shi, the master of suffering during the day, Zheng Xiu secretly thought that it couldn't be such a coincidence, so he took a closer look.

This sight made Zheng Xiu dumbfounded. There were two arrogant little flags swaying above the exquisite carriage, with the arrogant word "History" embroidered on them.

"No, what a coincidence."

Someone went out today and didn't check the almanac.

This can happen by chance.

If you go out in the middle of the night and you have done a lot of wrong things, are you not afraid of the night shift ghost coming to your door?

So Zheng Dashan felt at ease and drifted towards the carriage that Shi Wentong was riding.

certainly.

Zheng Dashan did not want to do anything to Shi Wentong.

His [Fugue] currently does not have substantial lethality, and he is powerless if he really wants to do anything.

But Zheng Xiu could probably guess why Shi Wentong had the dog wandering in and out of the palace on this dark and windy night.

During the daytime meeting with Shi Wentong, Zheng Xiu realized that there was someone standing behind Shi Wentong.

Shi Wentong must have gone in and out of the palace late at night to personally report Zheng Xiu's reaction after being beaten.

Fortunately, the carriage was not moving very fast, but at a leisurely pace. The driver wanted stability.

This allowed Zheng Xiu to float easily against the edge of the carriage.

Zheng Xiu quietly put his head into the compartment from above.

Judging from the dignified official hat, it was indeed Shi Wentong, the wife-snatcher, in the car.

His withered palms were quickly coiling a pair of jade Ruyi, faster and smoother as they coiled.

Zheng Xiu squatted for a while and saw that Shi Wentong was almost home. He did not take the initiative to say any useful information to himself. Just when Zheng was almost beyond the scope of Ah Piao's activities and had to return to the prison, Shi Wentong

Suddenly he let out a dry laugh of "hehe".

The tired Zheng Xiu immediately became energetic.

"Boss Zheng, Boss Zheng, you really don't know what's good and what's good. You're half-hearted and thinking about having both sides. Haha, do you really think that your dead father and his achievements in protecting the country can protect you for the rest of your life?"

"Then Lao Ke is the same. He leaned against the wrong tree and stood in the wrong position. If something happens to you in the future, don't blame me for not warning you!"

Lao Ke?

Ke Chunliang, Minister of Household Affairs?

Then what?

Zheng Xiu is waiting online.

Since you can't help it, you should say more.

"If you hadn't repeatedly pushed His Highness to win over you, how would I have had the chance to become a successful person?"

Shi Wentong said again.

Then he kept laughing and said nothing more.

Such an old fox naturally understands that walls have ears.

I couldn't help but say a few words, so I didn't reveal any more information.

But this was enough for Zheng Xiu.

It seems that Zheng Xiu's guess is good, the emperor may really be dying.

Since Mr. Wei put down the rebellion of the Northern Barbarians, external worries have been relieved. What he is most taboo about now is forming internal cliques for personal gain.

If Mr. Wei hadn't suddenly become incompetent, a certain prince would not have been so bold as to summon six important ministers late at night. This was obviously an overstep.

Shi Wentong only said "Your Highness" without distinguishing one, two or three. Which prince is he?

Let’s talk about Swen Tong.

Even in the carriage, he didn't dare to talk. Who doesn't know that walls have ears?

It's just that Shi Wentong has been blessed with good things and happy events these past few days.

First, the new concubine who was admitted to the family a few days ago was in her prime. She was as beautiful as a flower and jade, with fair skin and beautiful appearance, but she was a little thinner. If it weren’t for the fact that she was unwell and unable to do her job due to official duties, how could Shi Wentong have done this?

Stay until now? Tonight is an auspicious day, it is the time to pick melons. This is a joy.

Secondly, although Shi Wentong was humiliated by Zheng Xiu in the prison camp today, it is nothing compared to the promise made by His Highness? This is the second happiness.

As for the third one, because recently Shi Wentong went to a famous doctor and asked for a folk prescription. The famous doctor told him that three bowls of water should be boiled into one bowl, which would definitely make him regain his glory. But Shi Wentong was afraid that it was too thin, so he mixed the folk prescription with ten bowls of water.

If you boil the amount of medicine into a bowl, wouldn't this be twice the result with half the effort? Three joys, three joys.

Thinking that today, next year, he will be old and have a son, and when everything is settled, the adults who made him submissive in the past will be able to strike hard in the future, the feeling of pleasure comes one after another, making Shi Wentong unable to bear it before getting off the car.

He raised his head and laughed, singing a happy tune:

"Blissful, joyful! Happy—"

Throw your head back and laugh.

Head up.

head.

.

Their eyes met.

Mr. Shi's happy song came to an abrupt end.

There was a sudden silence inside the car.

Shi Wentong looked up and saw a pale, handsome face embedded in the ceiling of the carriage, hazy and gloomy.

What I fear most is that the air suddenly becomes quiet.

Zheng Xiu immediately rolled his eyes and cried pitifully in a mellow voice to break the embarrassment: "His... big... man... I... died... so... miserable... ah... wu wu...

Woo..."

"Ahhhhhhh--don't you, don't come over here ahhhh--"

The old man's hysterical screams broke the silence of the streets of the imperial city.

It can be said that there are four joys coming to the door.
