After hearing this, she realized what the aristocratic families were planning.
Is co-authoring a free prostitution for teacher education?
After all, the guidance of the sixteenth-level master is not a street cabbage. It is a scarce resource that has passed this village and has no shop. No wonder the aristocratic family is tempted. Could it be that these aristocratic families are itching to take advantage of her? How could she? Do you have time to take care of an apprentice?
Even though he wanted to refuse, he stopped after thinking about it.
My inner calculations were rattling loudly.
These teenagers are young, and they look quite obedient. Aren't they ready-made labor force? Since these aristocratic families send people to their doorsteps, why not exploit the free labor force? Regardless of whether it is useful or not, I will give you some advice occasionally. Even if they don't make any progress, they can still argue that their poor understanding has nothing to do with her. Can aristocratic families be unhappy with themselves because of this?
Even if I give them ten courages!
Shen Tang couldn't help but said: "Isn't this inappropriate?"
However, his eyes passed over a group of fresh leeks, his eyes sparkling, and he was thinking about where to throw them and squeeze them.
Follow the Romans when they are in the country. She does not keep idlers and trash in her tent. These little leeks have entered her territory and naturally have to abide by her rules. Every little leek swept by Shen Tang's eyes lowered their heads one after another, with a vague expression on their faces. Unwilling.
Shen Tang understood this.
How can any naughty child like his parents to sign up for tutoring classes?
"Nothing wrong."
Kang Nian was cursing in his heart - Shen's eyes were eager to stick to others, and he was so reserved - but hypocrisy was the essence of a superior person. Even if he was satisfied with the gift delivered to his heart, he would still have to pretend to refuse it several times before accepting it. Only in this way can he be able to set off his breeze, integrity and selflessness, he understands!
Haha, he understands everything!
Kang Nian, who thought he understood, cooperated with Shen Tang in acting.
After a lot of back and forth, Shen Tang accepted it.
As the head of the Kang family, Kang Nian still had a lot of family affairs to deal with. As soon as the old madam sent someone to his part-time job, he said goodbye as embarrassed as if his butt was on fire. Today's move is definitely the biggest stain in his life! But what about Shen Tang's side? Forced to stay.
The reasons are also very good.
According to Kang Shi's letter, he would arrive in one day at most.
Did the two brothers not see each other for many years?
Kangnian paused when he heard this, hesitating very much.
Just as Shen Tang said, if he does not seize this opportunity, the next time the brothers meet will not be until half a year at the earliest.
Thinking of this, Kang Nian reluctantly stayed for one more day.
However, he did not want to see Shen Tang for the time being, so he made the excuse of "the carriage is too lazy and the horse is tired, and the pommel horse is tired" and declined Shen Tang's invitation to have a meal together. Kang Nian sent her so much labor without salary, which was reasonable. You should also express your gratitude.
Seeing Kang Nian as if his butt was on fire, Shen Tang was puzzled.
"What happened to Kang Bo Sui today?"
Could it be that he is feeling anxious?
Or can’t hold it in when shit comes?
Gu Chi, who had endured so much painstakingly, finally failed, and his face turned blue from the pain: "Master, why do you think so?"
Shen Tang replied of course: "As the saying goes - you can travel a thousand miles by holding your urine, but you can't travel even an inch by running thin. I can understand that people have three urgent needs. Kang Bosui and Ji Shou have different personalities. I have dealt with him a lot, and he is today Very abnormal.”
Gu Chi rubbed his sore cheeks.
"How does my lord plan to arrange those warriors from aristocratic families?"
"Wherever there is a shortage of people, they are thrown away." Shen Tang mistakenly thought that Gu Chi felt that her handling was inappropriate and took a preemptive strike. "Wang Chao, you also heard that Kang Bosui said that the family sent them here in the hope that I can guide them, which is equivalent to Come be an apprentice. Are they picky about what kind of work the master arranges for the apprentice? Since you are a warrior, you must endure hardships and stand hard work, don’t act like aristocratic families!"
If you want to enjoy yourself, stay at home.
If you want to grow, don’t complain!
Sweat, work hard, and live up to your youth!
"My lord, what you said makes sense——"
Gu Chi didn't want to reveal the family's intentions at this moment, otherwise, given his lord's character, things would get serious. If he allowed misunderstandings, it would be the family that would suffer the consequences in the end, and his lord would not suffer any loss. As for the Wulong, it wouldn't take long for the family to react.
Shen Tang sensed something keenly.
She moved closer to Gu Chi suspiciously.
Narrowing his eyes: "Are you feeling guilty?"
None of her subordinates are good people. Their whole life can be summed up in one sentence - it is necessary to be on guard against others and always have the intention to harm others. Gu Chi also likes to watch her lively.
Ever since Kang Nian came here, there was something wrong with Gu Chi.
Gu Chi responded without blinking, with an aura of righteousness: "Chi has been magnanimous all his life, and I don't know what a guilty conscience is."
Shen Tang raised his eyebrows: "You're not hiding anything from me?"
Gu Chi kicked the ball back: "What do you think, my lord?"
Shen Tang said: "Let's just believe you for once."
Kang Shi came back one day later than expected. He thought that Kang Nian would be impatient with the wait and set off on his way back to his hometown early, but he didn't expect him to wait all the time to see his brother. Kang Jishou was tired from all the work, and it was already midnight when he arrived. He went to fetch warm water. He had not had time to take care of himself in the past few days, and a green beard appeared. He skillfully used a razor to clean his face and beard, and there was a whistle outside the tent.
"Come in."
Talk casually when you are healthy.
The tent was opened and cold wind poured in.
The figure entered without making a sound, Kang Shi ignored it, but the person who came said: "Silang can't even recognize the aura of his brother?"
The knife in Kang Shi's hand paused.
He turned around abruptly.
The dim candlelight in the tent did not affect Wen Xin's vision. The man in front of him had a face that had not changed much from that of the past. Who else could it be if he wasn't his eldest brother? Two brothers, one was sitting with a sword raised, and the other was standing. At the entrance of the camp, they looked at each other in silence.
In the end, it was Kang Shi who reacted first.
The finger holding the knife pointed to the mat next to him: "Sit."
The tone was calm, without any excitement of brothers meeting again after so many years. Kang Nian was not surprised and sat down as Kang Shi pointed. He sat quietly and watched Kang Shi shaving at various angles in the mirror. Couldn't help but sigh.
Kang Shi said amusedly: "Brother, what are you sighing about?"
Kangnian said: "You have suffered a lot these years."
How can you do such trivial things as shaving and cleansing your face by yourself?
However, Kang Shi was in an accident.
When he was a child, Kang Shi was also a pampered child at home, the youngest son who was favored by his father. But since he awakened to the way of the scribes, the younger brother who could not even put on his own clothes was forced to learn to do it himself. The Kang Shi in front of him was full of blood, and his clothes were still messy.
It is not difficult to guess why he arrived a day late.
Because the aristocratic family only openly surrenders to Shen Youli, and the surrender is forced by the situation, how many people really agree with it in their hearts? In private, they still make small moves. Some things do not require them to come forward themselves, they only need to secretly instigate and kill people with borrowed knives. The person who took over caused trouble. Coupled with Kang Jishou's mysterious luck, small things must have turned into big things, and he was assassinated more than once.
The first time I came back from Kangshi, I didn't go to see Shen Tang. Instead, I stayed in the camp to clean myself up so that I could spy on him.
Kang Shi scraped the razor twice on the whetstone to make it sharper, rinsed it in cold water, and continued to say to his face: "I just suffered a few bruises, but their whole family is dead." , I deserve this little bit of suffering.”
As he spoke, he touched his cheek to see where it was uneven.
Kangnian asked: "Kill them all?"
Kang Shi sneered: "If I don't kill him, how can I keep it to celebrate the Qingming Festival and worship our ancestors? If we cut the weeds but not the roots, there will be endless troubles."
Shen Tang gave everyone on business trips great rights.
If necessary, cut first and then play, or even play without playing.
Kang Nian looked at Kang Shi's cold profile under the candlelight, and for a moment he didn't dare to ask him who he had killed, so that he could be in such a good mood. He didn't dare to ask more, so he changed the subject: "... Shiro left home. All these years, everything in the clan is safe."
Kang Shi ignored his brother's discomfort: "Oh."
The answer was very cold.
The two brothers didn't even talk as much as they did in their last letter home.
Kang Nian continued to look for topics, and the content was nothing more than which acquaintance was starting a family, getting married and having children, which clan member was promising, which clan member was causing trouble...the topics went around and around, seeming to intentionally avoid their family members. Kang Shi's reaction was indifferent.
This suffocating atmosphere made Kang Nian somewhat breathless.
I couldn't help but said: "On the anniversary of my father's death in the next year, you..."
Kang Shi said: "I'm afraid I'm too busy to do anything."
I don’t know whether this sentence irritated Kang Nian, or whether Kang Shi’s unthinking response and indifferent tone ignited his emotions. He stood up and said: "You won’t go to the anniversary of Erlang’s death? What are you busy with? The lord you chose will indulge you in a while. Wenrou Township, I guess I don’t have time to care whether you are busy or not..."
Kang Shi suddenly lost control of his nimble fingers.
The sharp blade left a finger-long scar of bright red blood on his face. The blood dripped down the edge of the knife, and soon slid down his chin into his neck. Kang Shi was awakened by the pain, and Kang Nian was also startled, and was about to raise his hand. He stepped forward but was avoided by the opponent.
Kang Shi grabbed a wet cloth and covered the wound.
He stimulated his meridians and suppressed the pain within a few breaths. When he threw the blood-stained cloth into the copper basin, the bright red blood rippled in the water. When he was healthy, his cheeks were as smooth as new, and there was no trace of the pain not long ago. A mouthful: "Brother——"
Kang Nian: "I'm sorry."
He was so out of breath that he reopened the wound that had finally scabbed. The wound on his face could be instantly healed with Wen Qi, but the wound in his heart could only be covered and rotten, waiting for the day when the scab would heal on its own. He couldn't touch it if he didn't touch it. It hurts, and pus and blood bleed when touched.
Kang Shi said: "I can't bear these three words."
Previously, Shen Tang summoned a group of family heads to come to the banquet. For example, the Ning family came from the previous generation, leaving the young and powerful heirs behind. If they were hacked to death by ax hands at the banquet, the family would still have heirs. , but the eldest brother Kang Shi came to the Kang family in person, because the father of the Kang Shi brothers had passed away, and the cause of death was not honorable. He died of anger.
Moreover, it is related to Kang Shi.
Not only their father died, but also their brothers.
The father and son walked almost in front of each other.
After Kang Shi finished speaking, the two brothers looked at each other in silence again.
Until Kang Shi took a step back and made an uncertain promise: "If I have time before and after the death anniversary, I will go back and have a look, but I won't show up in front of others. Please forgive me."
Kangnian also knew not to force himself: "Yeah."
At this time, the guards brought the meals over.
Kang Shi greeted Kang Nian: "Sit down and have something together."
Kangnian readily agreed to this.
Although the surname Shen is ridiculous, the food here is really good, and the simple ingredients can make people appetite. Kang Nian went back and asked the chef at home to learn how to make it, but the taste was a lot worse. She adheres to the principle of "eat without talking and sleep without talking" According to the rules, he can eat late-night snacks with peace of mind.
The younger brother, however, threw this rule aside and was displeased: "Why did the eldest brother say that the master will indulge in gentleness in a while?"
It’s just that other people like to spread dirty rumors, so why can’t my brother, who has always been pragmatic and well-behaved, speak so openly? Could it be that sitting in the position of the head of the family, he will be infected by other idiots and lose his mind?
Haven’t you remembered the lesson from the last time you spread rumors?
Kangnian didn't have so many worries about his brothers.
He swallowed the food in his mouth, took another sip of clear soup to suppress the taste of the food, wiped the oil stains from the corners of his mouth, and then explained the whole story. Even the most infatuated king could not accept more than twenty beautiful women in one go. It’s not even covered up!
She actually took them all!
Not even politely picking a few to use as fig leaves.
Kang Shi: "...Ahem, what did you say at that time?"
Kangnian recounted it truthfully, his face full of shame, anger and disdain.
He whispered in a low voice: "This is straightforward enough!"
"...It is indeed straightforward, but not straightforward enough."
Kang Nian looked like he had seen a ghost and couldn't bear to look at her: "Silang, since my brother knows that you are protecting the Lord, he will not think bad things about her, but she, but she does! Alas, but the young men presented by each family are indeed good.
It's normal that she likes her appearance. This is a revelation. It's just a matter of personal morality. Those who achieve great things will suffer as long as they don't lose their moral integrity. The common people want to buy maids and little girls even if they earn more than a few bushels of rice a year.
Concubine, not to mention the princes?"
Except it's a little too exciting, it's not unacceptable.
"You don't understand my lord, and what you think is very different from what she thinks. If my lord really likes good looks, why not pick a few people with innocent family backgrounds to serve him? Do you have to get involved with people from aristocratic families? I'll be inadvertent in the future.
Making wedding clothes for others?"
One sentence hit Kang Nian several times.
What does "serving people from an innocent family" mean? Although the people he brought here are from aristocratic families, they are all gifted and well-educated, so why don't they come from an innocent family? It's as if the people he brought here are not from a wealthy family.
But the little boy and the thin horse!
It’s really infuriating!
Kang Shi was funny: "Brother, if you don't believe me, can you dare to bet?"
Kang Nian almost laughed angrily when he heard this, and squinted at Kang Shi, who was overestimating his abilities: "Silang, do you want to make a bet with Brother Wei?"
The implication is that you have forgotten your gambling luck?
You will lose every bet, so you still dare to provoke?
This was a favorable situation, and Kang Nian said loudly: "Bet!"
He will definitely win this round!
Kang Nian laughed at his brother for not overestimating his abilities.
Kang Shixiao said that his brother did not understand the master.
On the second day, Kang Shi and Shen Tang reported their work.
The basic skill of a literary scholar is to speak like a lotus flower. Kang Shi knows what content should be light and what content should be heavy. Even so, Shen Tang could tell that it was not easy behind the scenes - with Kang Shi's luck, things would be fine without any twists and turns.
It's not normal anymore.
"Everything cleaned up?"
Shen Tang didn't care how many people Kang Shi dealt with.
When a crime comes into her hands, she will only deal with it harshly.
Kang Shi said: "Everything is safe."
At this time, Kangnian asked to see him.
Shen Tang muttered in his heart: [Why hasn’t he left yet?]
He said: "Let him in."
When Kang Nian came over, he heard his younger brother whispering: "I heard that my master recently recruited more than 20 talented people?"

My left wrist has not been getting better, so I went to the hospital today to see an orthopedic surgeon. The doctor said it was a ligament injury or something, and the recovery was very slow, and my brain was hurting.
