Chapter 969 New Year (Seeking the Moon)(1/2)
Capital City, Cuihua Hutong.
The copper hot pot is cooked vigorously, with the pot of lamb slices rolling.
When two women named Shuqiu and Caiyan saw this, they couldn't help swallowing.
A few rough men over there were still drinking carelessly.
"Commander Xie Chai came to save me personally. I will do this bowl of wine first."
Lao Zhao raised the bowl and drank it. He was a servant from the brewer family. He had a good alcohol tolerance and his face remained unchanged even after he had several bowls.
Or the face that was burned by lime, there was no sign of change in the face.
"Brother, don't say thank you or not?" Xiao Chaihe shouted.
Lao Zhao thanked again and sighed again: "It's a pity that I couldn't bring the young master out this time."
"There is always a chance." The shepherd's eyes rolled, and he said, "With my old sheep here, I will bring the young master back sooner or later for the King of Jin."
Cui Laosan looked out the door and asked, "It's not a big deal for us to hide in the capital like this, right? Don't let the whole house be filled with it."
Xiao Chaihe said: "It's okay, I dare to come this time to find out the details of Jiannu's spy. A while ago, a dog thief named Tuhai..."
Xiao Chaihe was still a little depressed when talking about this matter, and at the end he had to sigh.
"In terms of ability, that dog thief is indeed better than me."
"Hey, what's the point?" The shepherd slapped Xiao Chaihe's shoulder and said carelessly: "Old Chai, you are righteous, no brothers, really convinced you. Just this kind of courage, do you have that little thief?"
"General Yang said it well..."
With a "ding" sound, several people touched another bowl.
The shepherd really treated Shujie as his daughter, picked up a large amount of chopsticks and mutton for her, and smiled and said, "Pick it up yourself, don't be too twitchy, you are all your uncles and brothers here..."
At this point, he turned his head and said to everyone: "It's strange. Last night, I went to the Regent's Mansion to pick up my daughter and met someone, wearing black masks and sneaky."
A single sentence attracted everyone's attention.
"Who?"
"I don't know, I have fought with him. Good guy, he is very capable and has shocked his grandfather so far... Hey, guess what? He turned around and ran away."
"Running?" Lao Zhao pondered: "Is this person also a detailed work?"
"Maybe it was some woman in Dorgon's mansion who stole the man." Cui Laosan said with a smile.
The shepherd raised the chopsticks and lit up with a knowing expression on his face, saying, "It should be that, that mansion, more than a hundred hungry concubines..."
"Haha, what are you talking about?" Xiao Chaihe interrupted when he felt that it was inappropriate to say this in front of Shu Qi.
Shuqi said, "That person... should be Boluo? Come to meet Fojin..."
"Huh, how do you know?"
"Dorbo said, they thought he didn't know, but the child knew... the child in Fojin's belly was actually Boro's..."
“…”
Xiao Chaihe took a sip of wine, turned to look at the shepherd, and murmured: "You daughter, you have a good intelligence..."
Jinan.
On the Lantern Festival, Chunning's physical condition gradually stabilized.
Wang Xiao thought about it later and was too nervous at that time. This postpartum surgery itself was a theory proposed by himself, and more than a dozen of the initial cases were also participated in the entire process.
Liao Xingliang can achieve a success rate of 80% or 90% or 100% or more. With the conditions of being fully prepared and surgery under his nose, what other major problems can arise?
All that is missing is a person who is steady in his work. So many medical officials in the army are good at surgery and suture. There are no yellow flowers, but red flowers and blue flowers.
I still have to be grateful, so he asked Ying'er to give Huang Xiaohua a large sum of silver.
But Huang Xiaohua gained much more than this through this incident, but the friendship between Wang Xiaochunning and his wife...
Chunning was able to get out of bed and walk. Wang Xiao and Qian Duoduo each supported her and walked slowly in the courtyard. Ying'er and Qin Xiaozhu held a pair of children.
Chunning still did not forget Huang Xiaohua, saying that she would hold a banquet to entertain her in a few days.
Qin Xiaozhu said: "You don't know yet? During the New Year holiday, many senior officials' families proposed marriages to her, including the Zuo family, the Qian family, the Bai family, and the distant relatives of the Wang family, our Qin family, and the royal relatives."
"I guess she should be upset."
"There is also the old doctor Liu who drank wine on the street every day and said to everyone, 'The art of postpartum is clearly a very simple thing. That girl knocked me down in order to compete for me!" I laughed to death."
The few people were smiling and looking happy.
In other words, Chunning has good family management skills, and the maids don’t like to talk too much. Otherwise, even if these words are heard, even if they are unwilling to punish anyone, they will cause the old doctor to suffer a little.
After a while, Chunning sat down on the stone bench, looked around his eyes, and whispered: "It's because my husband understands that he didn't suffer much pain during childbirth. Qianqian was giving birth alone at that time... My husband should take her back earlier and reunite the whole family."
A sentence was just about to Wang Xiao’s heart.
In fact, after defeating Dorgon, many things in Guanzhong were not finished yet, so he hurried back. He said that delays did delay a lot of things.
"Well, this year, we will be in the Northern Expedition either after spring plowing or after summer harvest. Before that, I plan to go to Guanzhong again..."
Wang Xiao said this, stopped talking and pondered a little.
Chunning said: "I understand that whenever the Tang family has conditions, my husband can agree at his discretion and don't worry about me."
She raised her hand and stroked her child with some difficulty.
The little guys were already looking good at this time, one was curiously caring around with bright eyes open, while the other was sleeping soundly with his eyes closed.
Chunning's fingers touched the child's face and couldn't help but smile, looking very contented.
Since she was content, she was too lazy to fight for some things.
She is indeed a little different from before. First of all, she has a calm and confident confidence... "It should be hers, no one can take it away."
If Chunning is said to be the small flowers and grass protected by Wang Xiao, Bumu Butai will be like a storm. After the storm, she finally thrived a little.
...
"I'm going to the palace today. Don't worry, I will enlighten him on my side."
Wang Xiao said, kissing each of the four women and the two children on the foreheads.
He felt that adding Tang Qianqian and his son and Zuo Mingjing in the future would be a matter of time...
It has been a long time since Bei Chu has been in court.
When everyone gets used to it, they find that it is no big deal if they don’t go to court early.
Under this circumstance, the Jinan Palace has been very deserted.
Wang Xiao did not come alone today, but someone else took Tuhai over.
Tuhai was originally clamoring to see Wang Xiao, and had important words to say. But after being tortured, he had all the tricks he should have, and his whole heart was gone, just slumped there like mud.
Waiting in the hall for a while, a group of officials carried Zhou Yan in...
Zhou Yan had also woken up for a while, and Wang Xiao asked someone to create a dragon throne for him that can be lifted or pushed.
It still looks very majestic.
Zhou Yan's eyes first swept the bloody Tu Hai on the ground, turned his head to ask Wang Xiao who was sitting aside, "Is this?"
"It was his master who planned to assassinate the Imperial Guard, and the Jinyiwei had punished him with thirteen kinds of torture."
Wang Xiao didn't say which thirteen kinds of tortures were, but Tu Hai had no complete flesh on his body.
People in the world think that they can withstand torture, but only when they really touch meat will they realize that there are very few people who can withstand it.
And the Jinyiwei can make this rare person unable to withstand it.
Tuhai is definitely a tough guy, so it is even more terrible.
Seeing that Zhou Xing did not answer, Wang Xiao said again: "That's right, I am going to abolish the punishments of Lingchi, Lianzhu and others. But... this person assassinated the king, and can be executed as the last Lingchi."
Zhou Yan looked at Tu Hai, seemed to be stunned for a while, shook his head, and said, "Give him some fun."
After Wang Xiao waved his hand, Tu Hai was dragged down...
Zhou Yan touched his knees and said, "Brother-in-law doesn't have to come to test me. I really don't hate anyone. I don't hate you, nor do I hate Tuhai. You will know when you make a choice. When sitting in this position, there will always be someone who wants to come to me, poison, assassinate, and force the palace. Throughout history, so many last emperors who died of life are all my lessons... In the future, I will live like prisoners. What's the difference between having legs or not?"
Wang Xiao said, "I'm not testing you."
Zhou Yan asked, "If I really wanted Lingchi, what would my brother-in-law do?"
"Kill him with one knife, and then tell you that we have already slapped him." Wang Xiao said: "The decree to abolish the extreme punishment has been promulgated. Everyone should see how Tuhai will deal with it. The majesty of the decree is more important."
"Since that's the case, why bother to ask me?"
"I want you to breathe and relieve your heart knot."
Zhou Yan smiled bitterly and said, "Even if he lied to me?"
"Um."
"Do you know that you are deceiving the king?"
"I didn't treat you as the emperor." Wang smiled and said, "Otherwise you would have died long ago."
