Chapter 18 Lead

Basically, the cubs of all animals are fluffy and very cute. As long as a mentally healthy person sees these cubs, he will have a desire to protect them. This kind of thinking comes from the depth of our blood, not because of any other thoughts.

.

A tiger's cubs are so cute and adorable, and a bear's cubs are so stupid and adorable that they are adorable. If these cubs recognize your existence, they will happily play with you.

Of course, this kind of play includes biting, hugging...

Forget about the cubs of things like dragons. They have powerful destructive power from the moment they are born. Breathing fire, spitting water, and making lightning are all trivial matters. Their greatest destructive power comes from the power given by God.

Therefore, Zhao Xu has been killing people since he was born.

Zhao Xu cried for no reason in the middle of the night, and the furious old dragon Zhao Zhen killed two wet nurses who were specially serving Zhao Xu with a cane.

When Zhao Xu was one year old, he started crawling and had a red bump on his forehead for no reason, so a eunuch who was specially looking after Zhao Xu passed away.

Five-year-old Zhao Xu still sucks, but since his teeth have grown, he bites his wet nurse's nipple until blood drips every time he sucks. However, Zhao Zhen thinks this is a sign of his son's strength...

The little dragon may think he is playing with you, but no one can accept his play, especially when the little dragon is followed by a ferocious golden dragon, and no one will like this.

Yun Luoluo is naturally different. His father is a tiger, or a tiger with an eye-catching white forehead. The little tiger is naturally not afraid of the little dragon. Young children play together, and the little tiger's face is scratched by the little dragon. The big tiger's face is scratched by the little dragon.

Zhang Yingjun's face was as black as black coal.

There was a real evil spirit permeating the air. Except for the emperor who was relatively calm, even the empress was restless.

Xiaolong did something wrong, and the fault naturally lies with the nun who taught Xiaolong. If Yun Zheng hadn't asked for mercy when he saw his daughter was hurt, the nun who taught him would have been unable to survive.

From then on, the only thing Xiaolong was afraid of in Tokyo was the Yun family's little tiger. Strangely enough, from that time on, Xiaolong, Xiaolong and the little tiger got along better.

Therefore, beasts of equal status, whether they are cubs or adult beasts, can only play harmoniously when their strength is almost the same.

Yun Luoluo changed out of her tight-fitting red warrior uniform and put on a beige skirt. She lay lazily on the railing of the embroidered building, her long hair that had just been washed hanging down beside her. She was not old, and she was already

It has a bit of a girly flavor.

Zhao Xu stood in the courtyard of Jiuqu Pavilion next door, chattering about some gossip in the palace and what happened to him.

"Look, my hands have been beaten into disarray. Tutor's heart is too cruel. In the past, when I made mistakes, the most I could do was punish the teacher who taught me etiquette.

It's fine now. It has set a bad precedent, and I'm afraid I won't be able to escape those punishments in the future."

Yun Luoluo said softly: "So when my father comes back, I can beat you like this? But my father is used to beating people with military sticks. It seems that your body can't bear it."

Zhao Xu laughed and said: "As long as the general returns victoriously and the sixteen states of Yanyun are restored to the territory of our dynasty, it doesn't matter if the lonely king receives a few military sticks."

Yun Luoluo snorted and said: "My father has no intention of beating you. After defeating the Liao Kingdom, there will be no decent opponents in the world. My father and I will go to sea. We are not like you cowards."

of people mixed together.”

Zhao Xu smiled dryly and said: "Luo Luo, I heard that the sea is full of dangers. Those who go to sea are working there with their heads in their hands. It is better to stay on land."

"You are just a bunch of cowards. My father said that wealth comes from the sea, and disasters also come from the sea. My second uncle has been working on the sea to open up future territory for my family during this period. Zhao Xu, let's make it clear first, the sea is not your family.

territory."

"Everything in the world is not the king's land, and the shores of the land are not the king's ministers!"

Yun Luoluo rolled her eyes and said: "The white country, the black country, and those countries with colorful skin are also your ministers. How come I heard that those people don't even know about the Song Dynasty, but they know about the Khitan."

"Khitan was founded earlier than us..."

"Nonsense, the prestige of a country does not depend on how early it is founded, but on its unparalleled warriors and famous wise men.

My father said that when the Khitan was founded, it was through ruthless killing and endless expansion that people far away became aware of this ethnic group that was not easy to mess with.

Since Gao Xianzhi defeated the Talas, we Han people no longer have the strength to maintain the territory west of Congling. After retreating again and again, we retreated to our current border.

It’s because we haven’t had the power to let others know about our reputation in the past few hundred years, so others don’t know about it.”

Zhao Xu said angrily: "The general has now captured Xijing of the Liao Kingdom and is marching towards Nanjing Road. In just one or two years, the prestige of our Song Dynasty will spread to far away places again."

Yun Luoluo said proudly: "That's natural. My father can naturally do this. It's a pity that after the war in the Sixteenth State of Yanyun is over, my father will take our whole family to the sea. The rest will be up to you.

Already.

My second uncle has already secured a good place for my family to stay on the sea, and now he is planting peach blossoms all over the island, just like when my family was in Chengdu, with ten miles of peach blossoms as a wall, just thinking about it makes people want to go there."

Zhao Xu looked a little sad and whispered: "Luoluo, do you really want to go to sea?"

Yun Luoluo laughed and said: "Of course I want to go, who likes to live in Tokyo? The air here smells of pigs, cattle and sheep, everything is messy, and there is no clean place.

If I want to find a quiet place and read the story of the Red Thread Girl, I will get on fire. I really want to go find my second uncle right now, sail on the sea, and fight against the blue waves."

"I heard that the Taibao wants to become a pirate at sea... This is not in line with the teachings of our ancestors..."

"Ha, if my father were a pirate leader, I would be the pirate leader's eldest daughter. It would be fun to hang up the skull and cross the sea and take everything from me. It's much better than being the daughter of a general."

Zhao Xu climbed up the flower wall with great effort, looked at Yun Luoluo and said: "The Taibao is in good health and has unparalleled wisdom. Naturally, he can do what he wants to do most, and he can live freely.

However, my father is seriously ill. Even so, there are young people who are ruthlessly plotting against him. The man who is sick in bed has been poisoned again. I am afraid that his time is running out..."

Yun Luoluo was startled, stood up and slapped the railing and said angrily: "Who is so cruel? The emperor's uncle is already pitiful enough when he is lying on the bed, who wants to harm him?

No, I have to tell my mother that our family should move away as soon as possible and live on the sea. There are not many good people in your royal family. Even good people like the emperor's uncle want to plot against me. My father beat countless people. God knows what they will do to my family.

"

Zhao Xu saw Yun Luoluo running down the embroidered building like a butterfly, sitting on the flower wall and thinking for a while, and finally slowly slid down the wall and returned to Jiuqu Pavilion with his hands behind his back.

The sky had darkened, and Zhao Xu took out a piece of white silk cloth from his sleeve. The silk cloth was covered with human heads.

Concubine Shu's head was in the second place, and a cross had been drawn with a red pen on the bottom of the head. After Zhao Xu thought about it for a long time, he took out a small bamboo tube half a foot long from his sleeve. After twisting it, the bamboo tube became

It turned into a thin wolf hair. He wanted to make a cross under Yun Zheng's portrait. After his hand shook for a moment, he took back the wolf hair and said softly: "Taobao, unless you really go to sea, otherwise this cross is

You can’t paddle it up…”

Cui Da has not left this small courtyard since he came to it. He sits in front of the window every day and looks coldly at the scenery of Jinmingchi.

There were already three casseroles in front of him. Recently, Concubine Shu stopped cooking porridge, so the use of the casseroles was very little.

These casseroles were all made by Cui Da himself. A long time ago, when he was young, he learned to make casseroles for making porridge. This was a business started by the Cui family. Even if his parents pampered him, he would learn this craft.

But he never slacked off even a moment.

People in the Cui family can live without money, but they must not live without the skills to make a living. This is what his father taught him when he was very young.

Cui Da has never forgotten these words... Therefore, his skill in making casseroles is very exquisite, no less than the master craftsmen in Tokyo.

It's just that no one knew he could make this thing.

It is very taboo to dry bake the casserole on a fire pot. If it is baked for too long, the casserole will become brittle, and if it is shocked by water, it will burst...

This is common sense that every casserole maker and housewife knows.

But today, Cui Da put a casserole on the brazier and roasted it for some time.

The bottom of the casserole had been roasted red by the strong charcoal fire. Cui Da had no intention of taking the casserole off, but just stared at the casserole.

After a while, something like black and shiny water beads drilled out from the extremely small holes in the casserole, and finally gathered into a bead the size of a broad bean.

After a while, the broad bean bead slowly turned red, turning from a ball into a puddle of water-like object. Cui Da poured the small pool of red liquid on the table, and the table immediately erupted.

Cleared the blue smoke.

Cui Da poured the tea in the cup, and after a while he dug out a piece of gray metal from the pit on the table.

Cui Da twisted the gray metal with his fingers, with an infinite mocking smile on his face.

The husband's obedience to his wife, the father's kindness and his son's filial piety, and the rule of a monarch and his ministers all became the cruelest jokes in front of this little piece of lead.

Who would have known that after the news became known that the emperor was seriously ill and would never recover, and when the emperor was increasingly preparing for his death, the gruel he drank every day was made of these mixed lead

It was cooked in a casserole made of lead powder. For this reason, the woman was afraid that the lead powder would not come out of the casserole, so she always had to cook the gruel that the emperor wanted to eat for a full two hours... (To be continued)
