11. Taiwu and Nanming (Part 1)
study.
Tang Tanfu was writing at his desk, while the prime minister Li Shuxia and the diner Zhang Zerui stood on their left and right respectively.
"The warrior's surname is Xie, but he is definitely not from Xijing." Tang Tanfu said.
"Why?" Li Shuxia asked curiously.
Tang Tanfu said without raising his head: "The Xie family's ancestral teachings are that all the descendants of the clan are not allowed to practice alchemy skills. The country was founded by martial arts in the Dali, and my ancestors were also a wealthy family. Although they are now in decline, they still know this matter.
"
The art of the alchemist is the art of the alchemist.
Li Shuxia smiled and said: "Actually, he is not a warrior at all."
Zhang Zerui said: "If he is not a warrior, how can he destroy my puppet with one punch?"
"Your puppet is already weak," Li Shuxia said calmly, "If he is a warrior, that punch will infuse internal power, and not only the puppet, but you will also be reduced to minced meat."
Zhang Zerui exclaimed: "Warriors are so scary? Why have I never heard of them?"
Tang Tanfu said: "The Taizu of this dynasty is a master of martial arts. It has only been 150 years since the founding of the Dali Dynasty, so naturally he has no reputation."
Li Shuxia nodded and said: "It's a pity that the peak is only a martial arts master, and there is no way to go; besides, practicing martial arts is very harmful to the body, and you won't live long. It's just a low-level martial arts."
Tang Tanfu stopped writing and said displeasedly: "Martial arts are dignified and proud, not as unbearable as you said."
"I made a mistake." Li Shuxia apologized quickly.
Tang Tanfu dried the folder and stuffed it into an envelope. He just pretended that nothing bad had happened and said, "What do you think? Do you think he is that person?"
Li Shuxia said: "I'm not sure yet."
Tang Tanfu frowned and said coldly: "You said that the banquet would be known, so I accompanied you to fool around. Why is there no result now?"
Zhang Zerui lost his flying magic weapon and was depressed. Hearing this, he couldn't help but muttered: "That's not what I said. Mr. Tang, you know very little about Qi Refiners..."
Li Shuxia raised his hand to interrupt him, glared at him lightly, and then said: "Sir, it doesn't matter whether it's him or not. Wouldn't it be a clean slate if I just kill him?"
"That can't be done!" Tang Tanfu opened his eyes angrily, "If he hadn't come to check on me, how could he have harmed my daughter's savior for no reason?"
Li Shuxia's lips curled up in a subtle way, but he said thoughtfully: "In that case, if you keep him in the house for a long time, your subordinates will monitor his actions."
"That's all."
Tang Tanfu pushed a pile of letters in front of the case, his eyes flickering, "The full moon is coming, please help me."
"Don't dare to slack off."
Li Shuxia and Zhang Zerui looked at each other with strange smiles on their faces.
…
night.
As soon as Xie Qingyun arrived at Green Miao Garden, he was jumped by a young man, but this time the young man's face was full of admiration, "Brother Xie, I heard that you defeated Zhang Zerui? That's great. I have long disliked him.
Everyone owes him money, Brother Xie is so awesome!"
There is a little fanboy so soon... Xie Qingyun is particularly helpful, but he is very reserved, "Lucky, lucky."
"Thank you, brother, sit down quickly."
Tang Wanwan's younger brother was named Tang Wanjing. Not long after he was born, their biological mother passed away. Tang Wanjing had high hopes from Tang Tanfu since he was a child. Unfortunately, he was motherless since he was a child and was extremely rebellious. He often got into arguments at school.
, even got into fights, and never blamed Tang Tanfu at home. Beating and scolding were ineffective. Fortunately, there was Tang Wanwan, a sister, who could control him, otherwise he would be really lawless.
Everyone sat down and the maid began to serve the food.
Tang Wanwan seems to have dared not look at Xie Qingyun because of what happened during the day. Xie Qingyun tried to talk to her several times but got no response, so he had no choice but to deal with the little fanboy.
"Brother, come on, tell me about Zhang Zerui. Has he bullied you?"
"He dares!" The little fan sneered, and immediately climbed up the vine, muttering: "Brother, you don't know, the man named Zhang just came here, and he is as arrogant as an emperor, pointing everywhere.
He even touched my sister..."
"What?" Xie Qingyun's face turned green, "Wait for me to kill him!"
"Tang Wanjing!" Tang Wanwan called out faintly.
Tang Wanjing suddenly stopped and said with a smile: "Sister, I won't say anything anymore. Don't be angry."
"Ahem..."
Tang Tanfu couldn't stand it any longer, so he glared at his son, and then said to Xie Qingyun: "Xie Xianshi didn't know something. In the middle of last year, my daughter got sick. Many doctors were invited but they couldn't see it, so they had to put up a list to ask for help. It's
Zhang Xianshi revealed the results and cured the little girl. When treating diseases, one cannot help but check the pulse and look at the physiognomy. I was present during the whole process, and there was nothing rude or disrespectful about him. The dog talked crazy and crazy, and when word spread, he thought the little girl could be bullied. It would be bad if his reputation was ruined.
Already."
Xie Qingyun suddenly understood and expressed his understanding deeply. No matter what era it is, rumors are a terrible poison. It is not surprising that three people become tigers and everyone talks about gold. In the end, Zhang Zerui ruined Tang Wanwan's innocence.
It would be a disaster for a woman who has not yet left the cabinet. The little fan didn't know the pros and cons. How could his father, who was the governor of a state, not know?
I just didn't expect that the second-generation ancestor would actually treat patients and save people. It's true that people are not as good as they appear.
Xie Qingyun was in a good mood because he got a magic weapon for free, so he had a light drink during the banquet. He had a good drinking capacity in his previous life, so it was not a serious problem. However, in the late Tang Dynasty, he was greedy for him to drink, so he insisted on drinking too.
After two cups, I will be unconscious.
"I'm too drunk, so let's call it a day." Tang Tanfu stood up and bowed to Xie Qingyun, "I brought up the old things again. The little girl is smart and considerate. She took care of the house for me and everything was in order. I owe her a lot, so I thank the immortal.
Saving her life is actually equivalent to saving my life. I will not mention the word "thank you" again, but I will ask the immortals to stay with you for a while."
"Being respectful is worse than obeying orders." Xie Qingyun's heart was like a mirror. The governor's gratitude may be genuine, but I'm afraid his original intention was to keep him for surveillance.
He did not refuse. Firstly, he was worried about being exposed. Secondly, he wanted to continue investigating the case and needed an excuse to stay.
Tang Tanfu left by himself.
Only Xie Qingyun and the Tang family siblings were left at the dinner.
Tang Wanwan dismissed her attendants, poured wine for Xie Qingyun herself, raised her glass and said, "Young Master Qingyun, I cannot thank you enough for your kindness. Wanwan respects you."
"As long as it's what I meant, you and I don't have to say thank you." Xie Qingyun drank the drink happily.
"Sister, I want to drink...sister..."
Suddenly, they heard Tang Wan's voice chattering in his sleep. The two looked at each other and smiled. Tang Wanwan stroked her brother's hair and sighed quietly: "He hasn't seen his mother since he was a child. His father is busy with official duties, so Wanwan has to try her best to play the role of mother.
He washes his diapers and washes them, chews them and eats them... so he has been close to me since he was a child, but he doesn’t listen to anything my father says.”
I understand, Old Tang worked hard to run the family business and neglected the education of his children. I don’t know whether he made a profit or a loss... Xie Qingyun said: "No wonder your sister and brother have such a good relationship."
Tang Wanwan's eyes softened: "Throughout those difficult years, Wanwan probably wouldn't have been able to survive without her brother."
Xie Qingyun was about to say some words of comfort when he suddenly saw a sky full of stars reflected in the lake, and... there were two moons.
