It was said that Lin Daiyu wanted to lead the army into battle. Naturally, others did not dare to object, but Lin Hai refused to agree. Jia Cong only felt strange. Lin Hai, an old man, was very aware of current affairs. He had known for many years that Lin Daiyu could no longer be controlled by him. What was the fuss about? Could it be?
Menopause? However, even though no one on the island could offend Mr. Lin, he was Mr. Lin's biological father. Everyone had no choice but to take turns trying to persuade him, and each took turns to fail. Jia Cong himself also came back in disgrace and was even beaten.
His husband ordered Daiyu not to leave Chengtian Mansion.
Even though Lin Hai disagreed, Lin Daiyu did whatever she was supposed to do, just went home to coax the old man. However, she was busy at first, and now she is even more busy preparing for the war, so she doesn't have much time to go home. Others can just pay it back. The entire "Chengtian Half Monthly News"
》The newspaper office seemed to have been moved to Siberia. Every day when the president came in, the old north wind blew, and he was so nervous that he didn't know when the old man would lose his temper. Jia Cong had to go to Jia She and ask him to help persuade him. Jia She laughed:
"I won't get into trouble with him!" Jia Cong begged him shamelessly, and Jia She snorted, "You guys, don't you know what he's thinking? Just don't know." Jia Cong did nothing.
After guessing for a long time, he still said he was wrong and refused to give any hint.
Jarvis heard that Jia Baoyu was doing odd jobs in Lin Daiyu's office, and quietly asked Jia Cong if he could be replaced elsewhere. Jia Cong said funnyly: "He's just an intern. There are not even 10,000 but 8,000 people in the island who have a crush on Sister Lin."
Why do you care about him?"
Jarvis said seriously: "Second Master Bao is different."
"He is worse than others. He is a country bumpkin from the capital. He has just learned Arabic numerals."
Jarvis still said: "Second Master Bao is different."
Jia Cong looked at his serious appearance and thought to himself, could this be the instinct of his love rival? Jia Baoyu is the official match after all... So he agreed. He went back to Baoyu in the evening and told Baoyu that Daiyu's place would be particularly chaotic from now on.
, told him to stop causing trouble and go look elsewhere. Naturally, Baoyu refused. He could find more than a dozen reasons with his eyes closed. It just so happened that Yuanchun was pregnant at that time! Since he came to the south, he had not had any new children.
The baby! Jia She was so happy that his beard almost went up to the sky, and he ordered Baoyu to help his sister. This time Baoyu had nothing to say, so he had to go do odd jobs for Yuanchun. Unfortunately, he was very attentive during the few days doing odd jobs at Daiyu's place.
Yuanchun learned very quickly and found a good intern. Jia Cong turned around and blackmailed Jarvis into eight boxes of snacks.
After Zhou Damei left for seven days, a beautiful woman came to the prefect's Yamen to find Chen Ruijin. Chen Ruijin sent someone to Xiaoxiang Hall to call Jia Cong, and Jia Cong dropped the important things in his hands and ran back. When he saw the woman, he knew that
The Seven Days Kung Fu family is not idle. From hairstyle to outfit, everything is simple but not simple. Jia Cong is the type that is pleasing to the eye. The appearance is gorgeous and slightly flamboyant, and it will not be inferior next to Chen Rui, Jin and Lin Daiyu. The figure is really good, and it should be concave.
She is so convex that she can be a model in future generations. If she hadn't had someone in her heart and met this person by chance on the street, there was a high chance that Jia Cong would fall into it.
It's a pity that no matter how beautiful he is, he is still from the "alliance". He then went up to him with a smile on his face and flattered him for a long time, making Liu Mingqiu laugh from ear to ear. Chen Ruijin was holding back his laughter - Jia Cong always flattered his elders.
, many of the words he usually said to Jia She, which was a roundabout way of showing loyalty. After talking for a long time, Jia Cong slapped her in the face: "By the way, my uncle wants to see Miss Liu."
Liu Mingqiu was startled and looked at Chen Ruijin. Chen Ruijin said: "For some reason, when Taoist Master Zhenming heard Sister Qiu's name, he said that he would like to meet you when you come."
Liu Mingqiu only knew that Zhenming was a veteran in martial arts, and since he was Jia Cong's uncle, it was always good to meet him, so he agreed. Jia and Chen immediately led her to Zhenming's yard without touching the ground.
Zhenming was reading the Starship Philosophy Series he borrowed from Chengtian Library a few days ago in the house. When he heard that Miss Liu had arrived, he ordered them to wait in the yard while he put down the book and walked out. Three juniors enter
After bowing in front of him, Zhenming looked at Liu Mingqiu Huizi carefully and asked, "Who are you, Liu Xinxin?"
Liu Mingqiu was pleasantly surprised: "It's my great-grandfather. Does senior recognize him?"
Zhenming didn't answer. He counted on his fingers and said to Jia Cong and Chen Ruijin: "This girl is a generation shorter than you two."
Jia Cong was so happy that he clapped his hands and said: "Then I am Miss Liu's uncle? Hahaha, I took advantage of this." He gave Chen Ruijin another arm and said, "She is a generation older than you, so don't call her sister anymore."
Haha... I'm afraid she's going to call you Aunt Chen!"
Chen Ruijin hurriedly laughed and said: "Does that mean you are taking advantage of Sister Liu!"
"She has taken advantage of you for many years." Jia Cong said happily, "Obviously you should call her niece, but you have been calling her sister for more than ten years." He looked at Liu Mingqiu with a smile, "How are you, niece?
~~"
Liu Mingqiu came here with an errand, but suddenly he became a junior. His eyes flashed for a moment, and then he smiled and said: "It's just that I'm older than you all."
Jia Cong clapped his hands again: "As the saying goes, 'A grandpa in a rocking car, a grandson on a crutch.' Although the eldest niece is older, 'the mountain is not as high as the sun,' but she will be shorter after all. Hahaha, eldest niece, accept your fate."
Hahahaha..." He looked at Zhenming and laughed. This uncle is indeed a close relative!
Zhenming didn't even look at him. He looked Liu Mingqiu up and down for a long time and said kindly: "Liu Xinxin's great-granddaughter is already this old. How old are you?"
Liu Mingqiu said: "I am twenty-one years old this year."
Zhenming nodded and then asked: "Do you have someone else?"
Liu Mingqiu lowered his head and said, "How can someone in our line of work be so successful?" He quietly raised the corners of his eyes and glanced at Jia Cong.
Jia Cong hurriedly said: "It's okay, it's okay! Now you are free too. My third sister, who is the same age as you, has not found anyone yet. My father is going crazy with anxiety and ordered me to try to marry her off as soon as possible. Since Miss Liu is a big girl,
Niece, of course I can't be my uncle for nothing. I can help you two get married together." Chen Ruijin was holding hands with him. He kept his head down because he couldn't say anything. Hearing this, he couldn't help pinching him. Jia Cong laughed again.
Zhenming sighed: "When Liu Xin committed that crime, Pindao thought he would never be able to escape from generation to generation. It was a pity. Unexpectedly, time has changed and the world has become what it is today. Where have you been all these years?
Where are you on the job? Why are you thinking of defecting to Miss Chen again?" Jia Cong almost fell to his knees! Jiang is still very old, and all the words of this old man hit home.
Liu Mingqiu was secretly anxious, but he didn't show it on his face as he said, "Because my master is following Concubine Hui, I will follow her."
Zhenming said "Oh" and said: "Why did you follow King Chen? The Chen country is small and poor, can it afford you? Or are you raising King Chen?"
Liu Mingqiu said: "After all, King Chen is the prince that the emperor wants to establish, and he is justified."
Zhenming shook his head and said: "You have been coaxed by the Supreme Emperor. He never thought of passing the throne to King Chen. When he pretended to make King Chen the crown prince, he was actually acting to...that...it seemed to be called Liu Xideng?"
Liu Mingqiu was surprised: "Liu Dengxi, Eunuch Liu?"
Zhenming nodded: "Yes, it's Liu Dengxi. Liu Dengxi and Concubine Hui's mother are rivals. Although he is a eunuch, he is very indifferent to the Zhai family. Zhai family is the aunt of the Supreme Emperor. The Supreme Emperor wants Liu Dengxi.
The only way to help me is to favor Concubine Hui and pretend to make the second prince the crown prince."
Liu Mingqiu said: "Senior, why do you say that the Supreme Emperor is a 'fake'? Junior, look at it, the Supreme Emperor likes the second prince the most."
Zhenming stroked his beard, smiled enigmatically, tilted his head and asked, "Cong'er, if you were the Supreme Emperor, who would you make as the crown prince and who as the queen?"
Jia Cong was about to blurt out, "What are you doing to me!" He immediately understood. The old man usually called him by his full name, but this was the first time he called him "Cong'er". He was so flattered. It was obvious that he was talking nonsense, letting himself and himself interact with each other.
He set up a stage to sing an opera. This kind of thing is what Jia Cong is good at. He quickly activated his brain cells to think and said: "I know that the Supreme Emperor does not like the Queen Mother of Lu, nor does he like the eldest prince, King Lu. Earlier he forced
Yu Xiandi held power, money and other things in hand, and in order not to offend the first emperor, he kept the queen mother in the queen's position. However, anyone with a little knowledge knows that he likes Concubine Hui. The emperor has so many sons.
, each has its own strengths and weaknesses. I don’t know who he wants to appoint. Anyway, it won’t be the eldest prince of the year. After the death of the late emperor, if the incident of "four generals disrupting the capital" had not happened, the Supreme Emperor should have replaced him.
The queen's, and it's most likely that she is Concubine Hui. Even if Concubine Hui is inconvenient to ascend to the throne due to her lower birth status, she will be left hanging in the air first, and Concubine Hui will be given the title of noble concubine or something like that, and she will be allowed to rise slowly."
Zhenming said: "You are talking about this after the death of the late emperor. What about before his death? What would happen if he wanted to wait for the death of the late emperor to change the queen and establish a prince?"
Jia Cong said "Ouch", slapped his thigh and said: "Yes, yes! You shouldn't mention establishing a crown prince at all! After all, the late emperor is old and will return to the west sooner or later. The emperor has endured it for so long, why does he care about enduring a few more
Year?" His thoughts suddenly opened up, and he couldn't help but put his arms on his back and walk around in the courtyard, nodding his head as he walked around, and said seriously, "That's right, that's right. The Supreme Emperor and the late Emperor didn't have any deep affection as a father and son at all. The late Emperor used the Supreme Emperor as his official envoy.
Yes, the emperor was so angry that he vomited blood. Moreover, the people of the late emperor and the people of the supreme emperor were two different groups of people. The most terrible thing is, what did the people of the late emperor do? Regardless of the officials in the capital, foreign officials, civil servants and military generals, there was almost no one who did not break the law!
I heard that the cabinet of the Ministry of Punishment has long been filled with files. Even if there are occasional cases where there is no violation of the law, it is because they have borrowed money from the treasury and will not repay it - only our family is honest! As the saying goes, once the emperor is the emperor, there are ministers. When the late emperor dies,
The Supreme Emperor must be liquidated. If I were the Supreme Emperor, I would have planned to deal with the former emperor's old ministers long ago, and I would never say anything about establishing a prince before the late emperor died. Otherwise, what if those people who originally wanted to kill the prince without discussing it would cling to the prince? What if?
What if Yu Ping'er is injured by hunting a mouse? If there is a candidate for the prince that he likes, of course he should hide it so that no one knows about it, and then spread the word, "Establish a permanent successor!" Tell the ministers, "Why are we still discussing the establishment of a prince?"
The eldest prince is both the eldest son and the only legitimate son of the emperor. He is born to be a prince - "Anyway, he had no intention of establishing an eldest prince. As a result, the former emperor's old ministers all went to the eldest prince, and the second prince he wanted to establish was very happy.
That's all. Come to think of it, I'm afraid the Supreme Emperor has no intention of making the second prince the crown prince."
Zhenming nodded and said: "Yes, the emperor's thoughts are not as simple as they seem. Before the death of the late emperor, I'm afraid you, the imperial guards, will always be in the hands of the late emperor. At most, let Liu Xiden take some of them away, and most of them will still be there.
In hand."
Jia Cong said "Oops" again: "Yes! If the Ouchi guards are so powerful, why would the Supreme Emperor let that... Cao, what, Cao Datong, Tianjin general Cao Datong be captured? This person is just a reckless man, Ouchi master is so
Duo, why didn't you go straight to rescue him?"
Liu Mingqiu smiled bitterly and said: "The late emperor had an order that we all follow the Empress Dowager until he is buried with all manners... As for those who followed Eunuch Liu..." She looked at Chen Ruijin.
Chen Ruijin also smiled bitterly: "At that time, Eunuch Liu received reliable news that Prince Xian Yi Zhong still had a grandson. His remaining troops wanted to take advantage of the empty capital to rebel and seize the capital to ascend the throne."
Jia Cong rolled his eyes: "Eunuch Liu is stupid enough, I believe this."
"That news is so true." Chen Ruijin continued, "A few of the people who followed the Supreme Emperor fell into the trap of luring the tiger away from the mountain. They went back to look for it but could not find where he was hidden."
Liu Mingqiu immediately said: "It's obvious that he was caught and sent elsewhere. No one except the wise king can lay such a big trap for Eunuch Liu. Cao Datong also avoided the layers of defense of the imperial guards."
Jia Cong nodded: "That must be the case. Tsk tsk, King Yan is quite capable."
Zhenming coughed twice: "That's all, it's all in the past."
"That's right, let's get back to the business." Jia Cong said hurriedly, "The Supreme Emperor has no intention of establishing a second prince. The second prince is just used by him to protect the real prince from fishing. Is that what he means?"
"That's right." Zhenming stroked his beard and said, "Think about it, from the death of the late emperor to the time when the emperor stabilized the court, it was the most likely time for trouble to occur. He didn't even have a few imperial guards, so how could he establish a prince?
What if there is an emergency? He specially set up an older prince as a cover first. The one he really wanted to set up was one of the younger ones, but he didn’t know who it was. When the younger ones grew up, he would find a way to abolish them.
Big ones, like the late Prince Yoshitaka." He said with emotion, "Even if I knew it now, it would be useless."
"Oh -" Jia Cong said as if he suddenly understood, "After doing this for a long time, he pretended to favor Concubine Hui and wanted to make the second prince the crown prince for the sake of those in Liu Dengxi's hands. When he took over the throne from the Empress Dowager,
Liu Dengxi, the main bodyguard of the inner bodyguard, may not be that important anymore. Liu Dengxi is getting older and will die one day; by then Concubine Hui and the second prince will probably be abolished as well."
Liu Mingqiu was stunned when he asked them, the old and the young, to sing in harmony. After a long while, he suddenly said: "Back then, Concubine Hui wanted to marry Master Lin Hai's only daughter as his concubine on behalf of the second prince. The Supreme Emperor agreed."
Jia Cong hummed: "The eldest niece is still too naive. Back then, Uncle Lin was almost assassinated because of investigating a case, and the Supreme Emperor actually ordered him to go south to Yangzhou as bait. How important do you think I, Uncle Lin, am in his eyes?"
Liu Mingqiu was stunned again and was speechless for a long time.
Zhenming sighed: "How old are you? How can you understand these things in the emperor's family? Liu Yatou-" Liu Mingqiu hurriedly responded. Zhenming glanced at her lightly, "Since you are Liu Xinxin's
Great-granddaughter, Pindao has some friendship with him. He was half-reluctant to do this job. He once cried while drunk for most of the night. Now that God has given you a good opportunity, you have left the inner court. Since you traveled across mountains and rivers to join Chen Yatou, you showed up at Concubine Hui's place.
It's not that bad for you either." He said with determination. A bit of embarrassment flashed in Liu Mingqiu's eyes, and he lowered his head and said nothing. Zhenming looked at Jia Cong and said, "A few days ago, Cong'er discussed with me that we should take advantage of the Western Ocean
When countries are fighting civil wars, they send some smart people with high kung fu skills over and let them fight for as long as possible. Which Western country's leader and important officials want to cease the war and let him die quietly, and then fall into the hands of the fighting country. Pindao feels this is very serious
It's interesting, and it's the most suitable thing for you people to do. Since Chen Guo can't afford to support you, Cong'er has money, so let him support you. How about you all come over and help poor Tao? Cong'er said, it can make your name go down in history."
How could Jia Cong have thought that this old man has such a deep mind? Jiang is definitely old and spicy. These turns are so sharp and smooth, so smooth that he almost falls to his knees! Hearing this, he nodded repeatedly and gave a thumbs up:
"It will definitely go down in history!"
Zhen Ming looked at Liu Mingqiu kindly and said: "By the way, I can marry you girls who have been delayed. There is 'Ming' in your name, and the poor Taoist name also has Ming. Could it be that you are a trustworthy special general?
Did you entrust this to a poor Taoist?" He let out a long sigh, filled with vicissitudes of life, and looked up at the sky with tears in his eyes, "It must be protected by a trustworthy spirit in heaven! You guys can be considered free." (..)
