Chapter 34 Li Jinglong

Before he finished speaking, Zhou Fu saw his father-in-law approaching from afar.

Although Li Jinglong did not inherit his father Li Wenzhong's military talent, he has honestly inherited Li Wenzhong's good figure. He is tall and straight, with combed eyebrows and three long beards under his upper jaw. He is quite suitable for this age. year handsome guy.

But at this moment, Li Jinglong's face was full of anger. Zhou Fu knew that the father-in-law had obviously come to trouble him, so he sighed in his heart, but he could only rush forward.

After saluting to Li Jinglong, before Zhou Fu had a chance to speak, Li Jinglong's scolding came down:
"You are such a useless thing! You are domineering at home every day, but why can't you even control a few Taoist priests? Those thieves under your nose can steal all the things in the house, and you still have these pairs What are the eyes doing?"

Zhou Fu was startled, some bastard complained in front of the father-in-law, and Li Jinglong heard everything.

Thinking that Li Jinglong must have known the news that he concealed the Taoist priest's escape, Zhou Fu couldn't help but kneel down, and kowtowed again and again: "If you go back to the lord, the villain broke his errand, the villain deserves to die, the villain deserves to die... Oops, hiss...the villain should be damned..."

While talking, Zhou Fu rolled up his sleeves and slapped his fat face fiercely like he didn't want money.

Zhou Fu slapped himself with all his strength, and after a while, the flesh on both sides was red, and his cheeks were also swollen.Seeing him like this, Li Jinglong let out a sigh of relief.

Li Jinglong snorted coldly with his hands behind his back, "You are always good at acting, all right, get up."

Zhou Fu replied in a low voice: "Grandpa, the villain is ashamed."

Li Jinglong sneered, "What are you pretending to do, get up quickly, I have something to ask you!"

Only then did Zhou Fu get up quickly, and stood beside Li Jinglong with a half-bow.

Li Jinglong asked him: "I haven't had anything to do in Li Gong's mansion for a long time, what happened to those Taoist priests?"

Zhou Fu knew Li Jinglong's character, and if Li Jinglong would come to ask him, he must have understood the matter almost, so saying this was just giving him a chance to explain.Zhou Fu didn't dare to hide it, so he quickly told the whole story about how he got the land of Shengyun Temple and how he got back the twenty unlucky Taoist priests.

Li Jinglong couldn't help frowning as he listened.

Zhou Fu guessed right, Li Jinglong indeed came to Zhou Fu to ask him about the situation after learning about the trouble here.

Because Zhou Fu finished the matter of Shengyun temple, he was appreciated by Li Jinglong, and he was promoted to be in charge of the rectification of the small Taoist temple, which aroused the jealousy of many servants in Cao Guogong's mansion.A few days ago when the incident happened, Li Jinglong was dealing with affairs in the court, so Zhou Fu still had a chance to hide it. Today Li Jinglong's official business came to an end, and the servants who were jealous of Zhou Fu began to attack.Little reports were sent to Li Jinglong, and Li Jinglong was soon shocked.

As a member of the ruling class, Li Jinglong, like many scholar-bureaucrats at this time, attached great importance to the values ​​of self-cultivation, family harmony and world peace. It is obviously a big problem that a group of rogue Taoists came to his home, making the house restless. .

After the little concubine complained to him that her maid had been snatched away by a Taoist priest, and the two of them stole a lot of jewelry from him and fled, Li Jinglong was finally so angry that he came to Zhou Fu to question him.

After Zhou Fu explained the whole story in person, Li Jinglong was already very angry.

"That kingly man, he sent this group of people to my house, and if something happened, wouldn't he give an explanation?"

Zhou Fu cried and said: "My lord, that kingly Taoist is so cunning, he asked for a copy of the letter that these Taoists gave to the mansion when he gave it away, and now the Shengyun Temple only says that these people die and flee. They have nothing to do, the younger ones have gone to look for it, but it’s useless!”

Li Jinglong couldn't help being furious when he heard the words.

"A small Taoist temple dares to play such tricks with the Duke's Mansion. Do you really think I'm easy to bully?"

Zhou Fu saw that Li Jinglong was angry, but secretly heaved a sigh of relief. As long as Li Jinglong blamed Wang Dong for the matter, he would be free.

"Go, bring me the Taoist priest's writing."

Li Jinglong gave orders, and Zhou Fu hurried to fetch a few letters, because Li Jinglong didn't have time to worry about family matters these days, and Zhou Fu didn't want to lightly reveal the credit for getting the land of Shengyun Temple, so the relevant documents He didn't hand over the letter to the mansion, and kept it by himself all the time, thinking that Li Jinglong would give it to him when he had time.

Li Jinglong picked up a few letters and casually flipped through them. Before he read them carefully, he suddenly took out a small envelope out of curiosity.

"what is this?"

Zhou Fu glanced at it, smiled wryly, and said, "The Wang Daoist likes to tell people's fortunes. This is the fate paper that the Wang Daoist gave me. I forgot to read it after I came back. Hey, I thought he was nice guy..."

Li Jinglong opened the fate paper, glanced at it, couldn't help laughing angrily, handed the fate paper to Zhou Fu and said:
"Hehe, this Taoist's fate is very accurate!"

Zhou Fu took a look and couldn't help feeling angry.

The fate paper Wang Dong gave him probably means that in the next period of time he will have troubles because of being a villain.

"This... this Wang Daoist is so narrow-minded, he clearly knows that he gave me such a group of rascals, and even gave me a life note, it's really... hey..."

Zhou Fu put away the fate paper and said to Li Jinglong: "Before he said that he had done the calculation for the father-in-law and asked me to show it to the father-in-law. .”

Li Jinglong raised his eyebrows, and asked curiously, "Has he approved it for me?"

Although Li Jinglong has no skills, he is a senior member of the DPRK and China. He is very busy every day. He has no time to read the messy things sent to him by his servants. Wang Dong's life note has been kept in Li Jinglong's study. Didn't even move.

Hearing that Wang Dong actually gave him an order, Li Jinglong was a little interested.

"Go get it, I want to see, what kind of tricks does this thief dare to play with me!"

Zhou Fu responded, and quickly called a servant to pick it up. Soon, the servant brought the two letters to Li Jinglong.

"Really, I'm quite courageous..."

Li Jinglong opened a letter, glanced at it casually, and suddenly froze.

Zhou Fu waited for a long time, but saw that the father-in-law was not angry, and was a little puzzled.

At this time, Li Jinglong said: "When was this letter written?"

Zhou Fu was taken aback, thought for a while, and replied, "About ten days ago, at the beginning of the month."

After he finished speaking, Li Jinglong looked at him in shock, and then Li Jinglong suddenly handed the first letter to Zhou Fu, and lowered his head to open the second letter, as if he was very urgent.

Zhou Fu was puzzled, so he peeked at the letter his father-in-law had handed him, and saw that there was only one sentence on it:

In March, the grandfather's fleeting time is going well, and Yan's counterattack against Xuzhou is safe and sound, so you can rest assured.

Zhou Fu also couldn't help opening his mouth. Although he was just a servant, Zhou Fu only knew a little about the affairs of the court, but because he was in charge of the government, he still had heard about the atmosphere of the court.

Zhou Fu knew that because the wars in the past two years were too stinky, others would have been cut off long ago, but Emperor Jianwen never killed Li Jinglong, so now his father-in-law is a target in the court. Someone will propose to kill Cao Guogong to solve the problem.

The logic behind it is probably: hey!The defeat on the front line is all because Cao Guogong lost the battle back then and lost the vitality of the court. Let's kill Cao Guogong for joy.

Why!It is because Cao Guogong lost so many troops that the court could not recruit soldiers. Kill Cao Guogong and rejoice

Why!The emperor has diarrhea, and the emperor is even more busy because of Cao Guogong's harm. Let's kill Cao Guogong and rejoice.

The reason why Li Jinglong was so busy a few days ago was because the Yan army attacked Xuzhou at the end of February, and the front line was critical, so someone proposed to kill Li Jinglong.Li Jinglong moved up and down. Fortunately, Zhu Di passed by Xuzhou, so he was not in danger.

Zhou Fu looked at the fate paper. When Wang Daoren gave him the paper, the siege of Xuzhou had not yet come to fruition, and it was several days before the news of the result reached the capital. How could Wang Dong know the result of the matter?
