Regent sucks cats daily
Chapter 42 I'm married to Dingguo
The sun was sinking to the west, before the lights could be turned on in the house, when Tan Shiguan turned around and looked around, he saw Xiao Jumao's eyes shining brightly in the dim light.
"His Majesty?"
Xiao Jumao collected himself, walked slowly in front of him, met the man's deep and complex eyes, and reached out to hold his right hand in his unbelievable eyes.
The hard callus on the palm was as rough as if it could scratch his own hand, but as soon as Xiao Jumao grasped it, he felt his heart, which was ups and downs, suddenly settled down.
He has always felt that Tan Shiguan has done so much for himself, on the one hand because of his concubine's entrustment, and on the other hand because of his loyalty.Xiao Jumao has never liked anyone before, and he doesn't know what it's like to like, and he doesn't know that liking and loyalty are not distinct.
Tan Shiguan can be loyal to the emperor, but also love the emperor, what a matter of course.
"Shi Guan," Xiao Jumao turned his face away, his voice trembling slightly, "I allow you to stay, but you are not allowed to do anything else without my permission." After speaking, I felt my whole face was burning.
Tan Shiguan was overwhelmed with joy and excitement for a moment, completely lost his words, just held back the hand that Xiao Jumao offered to extend, but did not dare to exert any force, lest it would hurt.
An inexplicable affection slowly grew between the two. Xiao Jumao had never been so uncomfortable. He had lived for 18 years. Except for his mother and concubine, he had never been so close to others, just touching palms and fingers. Hold it, it can easily burn into people's hearts.
"Okay, don't mess around." The man's low and joyful words fell into his ears, Xiao Jumao's heart beat wildly, so he threw away his hand, turned around and walked towards the table.
"I'm not full yet." He sat down and called out the door again, "Zhao Quan, hold the lamp."
When Zhao Quan heard the order, he immediately opened the door and came in. He took a torch and lit a candle. For a while, the light was bright.
"Your Majesty, what else is there to order?"
Xiao Jumao waved his hand, "You go out and eat by yourself, I don't need you here anymore."
Zhao Quan narrowed his eyes with a smile, it seems that His Majesty and Ding Guogong had a good talk, that's good.
After he resigned, there were only two people left in the room. When Xiao Jumao was in a good mood, his appetite increased greatly. He cast a glance at Tan Shiguan who was sitting blankly, "I want to eat."
Tan Shiguan came back to his senses, quickly picked up the bowl again, took the food, and passed it to Xiao Jumao's mouth, Xiao Jumao swallowed it contentedly, and then said compassionately: "You eat too."
"Your Majesty, I will eat again." As long as His Majesty is fed, he is already very satisfied.
"Huh?" Xiao Jumao looked at him displeased, starving on the battlefield is a last resort, but here, how can I let you starve?
"Okay, I'll eat." Tan Shiguan was about to put down Xiao Jumao's bowls and chopsticks and picked up his own, when Xiao Jumao said: "Just eat like this."
Watching him from time to time, I saw that he was facing the door, his eyes were not looking this way at all, he was obviously concerned about himself, but he pretended not to care.
Tan Shiguan's heart gradually warmed up, his stern eyebrows softened, and under the reflection of the candlelight, he became more handsome and handsome. Xiao Jumao looked back, and such a heart-pounding picture fell into his eyes instantly, making his breathing slightly stagnant .
"What are you looking at? Still not eating?" He said a little uncomfortable.
Tan Shiguan took a bite with his bowl and chopsticks, and then began to feed him again. Xiao Jumao was annoyed at his disobedience, so he stretched out his hand to grab it, "I eat by myself, I don't need you to wait on me."
Tan Shiguan had no choice but to pick up his bowl and chopsticks and quietly accompany him to eat.
As Xiao Jumao ate, a smile appeared on the corner of his mouth, as if what he ate just now was not a dish, but a sweet snack.
It's nice to have someone to eat with.
After the two of them had finished their meal, Zhao Quan came back and removed the dishes, served him to rinse his mouth, and asked, "Your Majesty, do you want to take a bath and rest?"
Xiao Jumao shook his head and said: "It's inconvenient to go to the temple tonight, it's not necessary to take a bath, you bring a basin of water, I want to soak my feet."
Zhao Quan went down to prepare, and when the water came, he walked to the door and saw Tanshi Guanchu there, "Dingguo Gong?"
Tan Shiguan reached out to him, "Give it to me."
When Zhao Quan was in a daze, he snatched the wooden basin, which was so steady that not a single drop of water spilled out, and then saw him go straight into the room and close the door.
Duke Ding, have you served anyone before?Don't hurt Your Majesty!
Inside the house, Xiao Jumao was sitting on the edge of the bed, bending over to take off his boots, a basin of hot water was placed under his feet.
"I serve you."
Xiao Jumao looked at the man who had rolled up his sleeves, revealing his lean forearm with perfect muscle lines, thinking that he had bathed Yuan Bao so many times, what's the point of washing his own feet?He sat up straight, supported the bed with his hands, and passed his feet in front of him.
Tan Shiguan squatted down, took off his shoes and socks, held his slightly slender ankle, and put it in the basin.
Xiao Jumao's feet are very good-looking. They are slender and not much fleshy. The bones of the feet are distinct. The veins on the insteps occasionally protrude. Against the white skin, they are clear and bright. The ten toes move restlessly. , the light-colored nails are neatly trimmed, slightly rounded, and cutely tight.
When Tan Shiguan sprinkled water on his calf, he wiped it slowly with a cloth, with an extremely solemn and pious expression.
Xiao Jumao looked down at the hair crown on the man's head, and suddenly remembered the way the man let his hair loose after bathing. With a thought, he reached out and took off his hair crown, and the hair that had been bundled fell down immediately. , wiped off the water on his legs and feet with a dry cloth, reached out to pick up the basin, "Go under the quilt, it's cool at night in the mountains."
"Where are you going?" Xiao Jumao put his feet under the quilt and asked him with wide eyes.
"Just put the pot outside the house."
"Aren't you going to wash?"
Tan Shi watched with a smile, "I still have to keep watch at night."
The appearance of the man with loose hair caught Xiao Jumao's eyes, he lay down uncomfortably, turned around, "Just stay in my room."
"it is good."
Tan Shiguan put the wooden basin outside the house and came back. He tied up his hair again, sat down at the table, and looked at Xiao Jumao's back covered by the thin quilt.
After a while, a voice came from the bed: "Stop sitting there."
Tan Shiguan was puzzled, "Your Majesty?"
Xiao Jumao turned over and faced him, holding Yuanbao in his arms, looked at the bed, and said: "I heard that you sleep with Yuanbao in your arms every night."
Tan Shiguan's eyes, which were originally quiet, rippled instantly because of this sentence, and he coughed lightly, "Your Majesty is good to hold the ingot, and I have to keep watch at night."
Xiao Jumao didn't speak, just looked at him, his eyes were clear and bright.
Tan Shiguan looked at him for a while, but finally he couldn't resist him, got up and walked to the bed, leaned the sword in his hand on the bed, lay on his back on the mattress, separated a long distance from Xiao Jumao.
Xiao Jumao blinked, obviously he held Yuan Bao tightly in his arms before.
"My feet are cold."
Tanshi Guanwenyan sat up and covered the quilt around his feet tightly to ensure that not even a little bit of wind could get in.
Xiao Jumao moved again, "I can't cover the heat."
Tan Shiguan had no choice but to sit by his lap, stretched his hands in, and held his slightly cold feet. Why did the feet become so cold just after soaking?
The body of a martial arts practitioner is full of heat, Tan Shiguan's warm palms are tightly pressed against the soles of Xiao Jumao's feet, the rough calluses rub against the delicate skin, Xiao Jumao doesn't feel pain, only the curvature of the corners of his lips Can't get rid of it.
"What is your relationship with my mother and concubine?"
Tan Shiguan was stunned for a moment, and replied, "I just met him when we were traveling in the rivers and lakes."
Xiao Jumao nodded, this is possible, the mother and concubine have a bright temperament and are skilled in martial arts, she must have gone to the Jianghu when she was young, but the father seems not to like to hear about the world, so the mother and concubine seldom talk about it.
"Mother Concubine, did she have a good time before? Where has she been?" Xiao Jumao's eyes were shining, like a little beast waiting to be fed.
Tan Shiguan couldn't help laughing, "I was young at the time, and I was taken by my elder brother, but I went to the northwest with them, and then I was sent back home, so I don't know where elder brother and the others are going. Your mother and concubine were indeed very happy at that time."
Xiao Jumao smiled in satisfaction, it turned out that when the concubine mother was still so unrestrained, when could she be so carefree?
Tan Shiguan quietly looked at his slightly frowning brows by the candlelight.
"If your Majesty wants to go and see it, there will be a chance in the future." Tan Shiguan covered his feet so hot that he pulled out his hand and covered him with a quilt.
Xiao Jumao stared at him for a moment, a burning feeling suddenly appeared in his heart, this burning feeling could not go away for a long time, and it became more and more intense under the dim yellow light.
This is not a palace, he may not be an emperor, and Tan Shiguan may not be a courtier.
"Tan Shiguan," he said with a slightly hoarse voice, "have you ever kissed someone?"
Tan Shiguan's breathing was stagnant, he gasped lightly, and his voice was hoarse, "No."
"I do not have either."
The eyes of the two were intertwined, and the love gradually became thicker, and the color of the eyes gradually deepened, as if a volcano that was waiting to erupt, only waiting for the right time to burst into bloom.
"I... want to know what it's like."
As soon as Xiao Jumao finished speaking, the man leaned down suddenly, put his arms on Xiao Jumao's sides, and stared at his crimson eyes.
The light and cold fragrance rushed towards his face, Xiao Jumao's eyelashes trembled slightly, but he looked firmly at the man's lips, he touched them with his paws, they were very soft.
Tan Shiguan suppressed the hot and turbulent chest, and only slightly lowered his head, gently kissing the corner of Xiao Jumao's lips.
My heart is pounding and I can't restrain myself.
Xiao Jumao looked at him, that's it?
Tan Shiguan laughed softly, stretched out his hand to gently grasp his slender and soft hand, and lowered his head to touch his rosy and soft lips.
The lips and teeth are touching, Xiao Jumao only feels that there are thorns in the softness, the softness is the man's lips, and the thorn is the man's beard stubble, just sticking like this, he feels his heart beating non-stop, and he can't breathe. forget.
Heart beating like a drum, breathing hard, but neither of them wanted to separate.
Tan Shi's eyes became darker, but luckily he still managed to leave without losing his mind, saying, "Your Majesty, it's time for you to rest."
Xiao Jumao smacked his mouth, feeling itchy in his heart, and was about to speak, when an accident happened outside the courtyard.
Tan Shiguan quickly turned over and got out of bed, holding a sword in his hand, with a stern look on his face, "Zhao Quan!"
Zhao Quan immediately appeared outside the door, "Your Majesty, Duke Ding, Marquis Weiyuan has captured a sneaky little monk, that little monk..."
Before he finished speaking, Xiao Jumao, who had already put on his shoes and socks, heard someone shouting outside the courtyard, the voice was shrill.
"I want to see the emperor! I want to see the emperor!..."
"Be honest!" Chen Feng's rough voice sounded, "Your Majesty is something you can see whenever you want?"
Xiao Jumao tidied up his appearance, listened to what Chen Feng said outside, and couldn't help smiling, "If Chen Feng really didn't want him to come to see me, he would have been thrown out of the temple long ago, and he can still be allowed to make a lot of noise here? Tan Shiguan , what do you say?"
Tan Shi nodded his head and saw that a strand of hair at the back of his head was not tied up, so he put down his sword and stood behind him, "Hair is messed up."
Xiao Jumao let him tidy up for himself. Hearing that there was still noise outside, even the ministers were woken up, so they stood outside the courtyard and asked Chen Feng to quickly get rid of the troublemakers.
"Your servant, go out and have a look first." Tan Shiguan took up his sword and was about to go out when Xiao Jumao grabbed him, "Let's go out together, I want to hear what's going on with this man."
Tan Shiguan nodded, went to open the door first, saw that everything in the courtyard was normal, only Chen Feng was blocking the entrance of the courtyard with the young monk, he stepped out, and asked in a deep voice: "Marquis Weiyuan, why did you keep him here?" Disturbing His Majesty's peace?"
Chen Feng said helplessly: "He said he didn't see the emperor, so he bumped his head to death in front of the Buddha. In this place of Buddhism, His Majesty is praying here again. He can't see blood, right?" While talking, he was still wondering, how could Duke Ding In the emperor's house?Are you still discussing national affairs?
Xiao Jumao came out from behind Tan Shiguan. He was tall and tall, with outstanding features, and his gestures were dignified and elegant. He looked at the young monk who was bound by Chen Feng. By candlelight, he saw that he looked miserable, his face was sallow and thin, and he asked: "You want to see me?"
The little monk nodded again and again, snot and tears, so poor.
"What's the matter?"
At this time, the abbot of the temple also came. After all, it was the monks of the temple who caused the trouble, and their temple was also responsible.
After saluting to Xiao Jumao, he said: "Your Majesty, the discipline in the temple is not strict and disturbed you, I hope you will forgive me."
Xiao Jumao waved his hand, "No problem." Turning to Zhao Quandao who was at the side, "Go and move the chairs for me, several ministers and the master abbot. I will listen to the story in this yard tonight."
Zhao Quan took the order to go down, after a while, Xiao Jumao sat on the top seat, Tan Shiguan held a sword behind him to protect him, and several ministers sat on both sides.
Only then did Chen Feng escort the little monk into the courtyard, and threw it on the ground, "Speak." He stood beside the little monk to prevent him from doing any bad things.
The little monk wiped away his tears, and seriously kowtowed to Xiao Jumao, "The sinner kowtows to the emperor."
Xiao Jumao saw that he was not very old, but his eyes were full of sadness, so he couldn't help asking: "What grievance do you want to avenge?"
"Your Majesty, the sinners really have no way to avenge their grievances. Today, seeing the holy face, my head gets hot. Even if I die, I still have to beg the emperor to be the master of the sinners!" He didn't know Xiao Jumao's temperament, but there was someone A road, no matter whether it is a dead end or not, he has to break through.
"What kind of master? You should talk about it." Xiao Jumao didn't expect to encounter such a thing in the temple.
The little monk sniffed and told his story in a hoarse voice. The story was not long, but it was very infuriating.
He is not from the capital city, his real name is Dai Rong, his ancestral home is in the south of the Yangtze River, and his family has a hundred acres of fertile land. Although it is far from being as wealthy as the Zanying family, it can be regarded as a wealthy family in the local area.
His parents are still alive, there is a brother and a sister above him, the elder brother is already married, the sister-in-law is gentle and respectful, the elder sister is also engaged, the family is harmonious and beautiful.Unexpectedly, someone took a fancy to their family's fields and ancestral house and insisted on taking it by force. Naturally, they would not agree, but what they didn't expect was that the other party ignored the law and threatened their family with force.
They went to report to the government, but the county magistrate refused to accept it. Immediately afterwards, their home was smashed to pieces. The elder brother was not angry, so he went to the government office to file a complaint, but was told by the government office that he was suing a nobleman, and he had to kill a hundred people first. Wei Bang, brother was beaten to the point where most of his life was lost, half a month later, he just died like this.
The sister-in-law was already pregnant with Liujia, and died of dystocia in grief, with one dead body and two lives.The parents were in so much pain that they fell out of bed.He and his sister struggled to survive, taking care of their parents on the sickbed.At this moment, the family that was engaged to my sister came forward to withdraw the engagement. Although my sister felt ashamed, it could be seen that he was still young, but he still tried his best to support this family.
However, the family has been robbed clean by those thieves, so my sister had no choice but to pawn off the old jewelry to keep them from starving to death.
I thought this was the worst, but I didn't expect that the thief actually coveted my sister's appearance, directly took away her body, and my sister wanted to commit suicide, but was stopped by that man and trapped in the mansion as a concubine.
Although he is not very old, he has studied for a few years, and he still believes that there is justice in the world, so he discussed with his sister, since the county government and the government government can't cure the wicked person, then he will come to the capital to find more Big official.
But how can it be so easy to find high officials in the capital?He inquired about things while doing hard work, but he didn't know who to go to.Later, when he heard that the Minister of the Ministry of Punishment was upright and awe-inspiring, with a blue sky above his head, he boldly went to find him, but he was kicked out of the mansion.
After being blasted out of the mansion, he found that someone was going to kill him, so he ran away with all his strength, but he didn't dare to go to the city again, so he had to hide in the temple and live.
Hearing that the emperor came in person today, he thought that no matter how great the background of the thief was, he was no bigger than the emperor, so he wanted to face the emperor regardless of his life, and asked the emperor to make decisions for himself.
After hearing Dai Rong's accusation, Xiao Jumao felt that it was more tortuous than the script he had read, so he asked, "Do you know the name of the thief?"
Dai Rong frowned. Every time those adults heard this name, they dared not make decisions for him. This time, he hoped that the emperor could seek justice for him, so he replied, "I heard from my sister, that person's surname is Cai Mingli."
I have never heard of Cai Li and Xiao Jumao, but there is a family with this surname in the capital.Cai Guogong's Mansion is the premier home of Zhongming Dingshi in the capital.
The ministers present were all shocked, some of them had good relations with Duke Cai's mansion and planned to go back to get some fresh air, so they heard Xiao Jumao ask: "Do you know Cai Li?"
"My Majesty, I recognize it." It was Chen Feng who spoke.
Xiao Jumao signaled him to continue.
"Cai Li is the third son of Duke Cai, but because he was young and impulsive, he committed some crimes. The first emperor was angry and expelled him from the capital. He then went to the south of the Yangtze River and started a business in the south of the Yangtze River. In just a few years, he accumulated a large amount of wealth. .”
"How could Marquis Weiyuan know him so well?" He remembered that Chen Feng stayed at the border all year round, right?
Chen Feng was silent, and Fang said: "I dare not hide it, it is because the matter of Cai Li's expulsion was related to me, so I understand better."
Xiao Jumao thought to himself: Probably he has been waiting for the opportunity to counterattack?
"What did Cai Li commit back then?"
Chen Feng said indignantly: "Back then, he forced the minister's good friend to death." Speaking of this, he seemed unwilling to continue talking.
Seeing his sad face, Xiao Jumao didn't ask any more questions, and only said to Dai Rong: "I can't just listen to your side, but don't worry, I will have someone investigate this matter. If there is such a thing, I will definitely Give you justice." After he finished speaking, he looked at Chen Feng, "Marquis Weiyuan, let Dai Rong look after you for now, don't let anything happen again."
"The minister obeys the order!"
"The grass people thank the emperor Long En!"
When the matter came to an end, Chen Feng escorted Dai Rong away, and several ministers went back to their own rooms with their own thoughts.
Xiao Jumao sat on the bed, squinting his eyes in thought, tapping his index finger rhythmically on the quilt.
"Tell me, who should I send to investigate this case?"
He always felt that the relationship between Cai Guogong's mansion behind Cai Li and Jiangnan was not simple, so Dai Rong's family had nowhere to ask for help.However, Shi Tiewen actually kicked Dai Rong out of the house, which made Xiao Jumao feel that his image of being stern and selfless has collapsed.
"Does Your Majesty have a suitable candidate in mind?" Tan Shiguan sat at the table, quietly looking at the handsome and noble person on the bed.
Xiao Jumao shook his head, "It's difficult if there is no one."
All the people sent by Lan Yangui to Jiangnan died for no reason before, but now that there is another Cai Mansion, this case is really difficult to investigate.
"Your Majesty, I have a plan."
Xiao Jumao's eyes widened suddenly, "Say it quickly!"
Under the dim candlelight, the man's handsome face became more charming because of his earnestness. He said, "Let's change our thinking. Since Cai Li is not an official appointed by the court, then we don't need to show it on the bright side. Officialdom has its own way." , but Jianghu also has its own rules, since they dare to use Jianghu methods to kill people, why can't we use them?"
When Xiao Jumao heard the words, it was like enlightenment, Mao Sai suddenly realized, "You are right! But, how do the rules in the world come about?"
"This one is more complicated, and I can't finish it in a while." A concerned expression appeared on his face, "The night is getting dark, Your Majesty should rest early."
Xiao Jumao lay on the bed, holding Yuan Bao, with big eyes open, "I can't sleep."
Where can I stand the view of Tan Shi?I had no choice but to cough lightly, looked away, and said in a low voice: "Why don't I tell you something interesting that I have experienced before."
"it is good."
Xiao Jumao was lying on the bed, staring at Tan Shiguan who was sitting upright, the man's handsome brows implied nostalgia, and he said hilarious things in a low and pleasant voice, the corners of Xiao Jumao's lips curled up , Without knowing it, I closed my eyes and fell asleep.
When Tan Shi saw his regular breathing, he stopped, and his eyes fell on Xiao Jumao again.
He got up and walked to the bed, stretched out his hand to cover the quilt tightly, and finally, gently kissed the emperor's smooth and fair forehead, very light, very light, but full of piety.
Xiao Jumao slept peacefully all night, and Tan Shiguan sat at the table with his sword in his arms for the whole night.
"His Majesty?"
Xiao Jumao collected himself, walked slowly in front of him, met the man's deep and complex eyes, and reached out to hold his right hand in his unbelievable eyes.
The hard callus on the palm was as rough as if it could scratch his own hand, but as soon as Xiao Jumao grasped it, he felt his heart, which was ups and downs, suddenly settled down.
He has always felt that Tan Shiguan has done so much for himself, on the one hand because of his concubine's entrustment, and on the other hand because of his loyalty.Xiao Jumao has never liked anyone before, and he doesn't know what it's like to like, and he doesn't know that liking and loyalty are not distinct.
Tan Shiguan can be loyal to the emperor, but also love the emperor, what a matter of course.
"Shi Guan," Xiao Jumao turned his face away, his voice trembling slightly, "I allow you to stay, but you are not allowed to do anything else without my permission." After speaking, I felt my whole face was burning.
Tan Shiguan was overwhelmed with joy and excitement for a moment, completely lost his words, just held back the hand that Xiao Jumao offered to extend, but did not dare to exert any force, lest it would hurt.
An inexplicable affection slowly grew between the two. Xiao Jumao had never been so uncomfortable. He had lived for 18 years. Except for his mother and concubine, he had never been so close to others, just touching palms and fingers. Hold it, it can easily burn into people's hearts.

When Zhao Quan heard the order, he immediately opened the door and came in. He took a torch and lit a candle. For a while, the light was bright.

"Where are you going?" Xiao Jumao put his feet under the quilt and asked him with wide eyes.
"Just put the pot outside the house."
"Aren't you going to wash?"
Tan Shi watched with a smile, "I still have to keep watch at night."
The appearance of the man with loose hair caught Xiao Jumao's eyes, he lay down uncomfortably, turned around, "Just stay in my room."
"it is good."
Tan Shiguan put the wooden basin outside the house and came back. He tied up his hair again, sat down at the table, and looked at Xiao Jumao's back covered by the thin quilt.

Tan Shiguan couldn't help laughing, "I was young at the time, and I was taken by my elder brother, but I went to the northwest with them, and then I was sent back home, so I don't know where elder brother and the others are going. Your mother and concubine were indeed very happy at that time."
Xiao Jumao smiled in satisfaction, it turned out that when the concubine mother was still so unrestrained, when could she be so carefree?
Tan Shiguan quietly looked at his slightly frowning brows by the candlelight.
"If your Majesty wants to go and see it, there will be a chance in the future." Tan Shiguan covered his feet so hot that he pulled out his hand and covered him with a quilt.
Xiao Jumao stared at him for a moment, a burning feeling suddenly appeared in his heart, this burning feeling could not go away for a long time, and it became more and more intense under the dim yellow light.
This is not a palace, he may not be an emperor, and Tan Shiguan may not be a courtier.
"Tan Shiguan," he said with a slightly hoarse voice, "have you ever kissed someone?"
Tan Shiguan's breathing was stagnant, he gasped lightly, and his voice was hoarse, "No."
"I do not have either."
The eyes of the two were intertwined, and the love gradually became thicker, and the color of the eyes gradually deepened, as if a volcano that was waiting to erupt, only waiting for the right time to burst into bloom.
"I... want to know what it's like."
As soon as Xiao Jumao finished speaking, the man leaned down suddenly, put his arms on Xiao Jumao's sides, and stared at his crimson eyes.
The light and cold fragrance rushed towards his face, Xiao Jumao's eyelashes trembled slightly, but he looked firmly at the man's lips, he touched them with his paws, they were very soft.
Tan Shiguan suppressed the hot and turbulent chest, and only slightly lowered his head, gently kissing the corner of Xiao Jumao's lips.
My heart is pounding and I can't restrain myself.
Xiao Jumao looked at him, that's it?
Tan Shiguan laughed softly, stretched out his hand to gently grasp his slender and soft hand, and lowered his head to touch his rosy and soft lips.
The lips and teeth are touching, Xiao Jumao only feels that there are thorns in the softness, the softness is the man's lips, and the thorn is the man's beard stubble, just sticking like this, he feels his heart beating non-stop, and he can't breathe. forget.
Heart beating like a drum, breathing hard, but neither of them wanted to separate.
Tan Shi's eyes became darker, but luckily he still managed to leave without losing his mind, saying, "Your Majesty, it's time for you to rest."
Xiao Jumao smacked his mouth, feeling itchy in his heart, and was about to speak, when an accident happened outside the courtyard.
Tan Shiguan quickly turned over and got out of bed, holding a sword in his hand, with a stern look on his face, "Zhao Quan!"
Zhao Quan immediately appeared outside the door, "Your Majesty, Duke Ding, Marquis Weiyuan has captured a sneaky little monk, that little monk..."
Before he finished speaking, Xiao Jumao, who had already put on his shoes and socks, heard someone shouting outside the courtyard, the voice was shrill.
"I want to see the emperor! I want to see the emperor!..."
"Be honest!" Chen Feng's rough voice sounded, "Your Majesty is something you can see whenever you want?"
Xiao Jumao tidied up his appearance, listened to what Chen Feng said outside, and couldn't help smiling, "If Chen Feng really didn't want him to come to see me, he would have been thrown out of the temple long ago, and he can still be allowed to make a lot of noise here? Tan Shiguan , what do you say?"
Tan Shi nodded his head and saw that a strand of hair at the back of his head was not tied up, so he put down his sword and stood behind him, "Hair is messed up."
Xiao Jumao let him tidy up for himself. Hearing that there was still noise outside, even the ministers were woken up, so they stood outside the courtyard and asked Chen Feng to quickly get rid of the troublemakers.
"Your servant, go out and have a look first." Tan Shiguan took up his sword and was about to go out when Xiao Jumao grabbed him, "Let's go out together, I want to hear what's going on with this man."
Tan Shiguan nodded, went to open the door first, saw that everything in the courtyard was normal, only Chen Feng was blocking the entrance of the courtyard with the young monk, he stepped out, and asked in a deep voice: "Marquis Weiyuan, why did you keep him here?" Disturbing His Majesty's peace?"
Chen Feng said helplessly: "He said he didn't see the emperor, so he bumped his head to death in front of the Buddha. In this place of Buddhism, His Majesty is praying here again. He can't see blood, right?" While talking, he was still wondering, how could Duke Ding In the emperor's house?Are you still discussing national affairs?
Xiao Jumao came out from behind Tan Shiguan. He was tall and tall, with outstanding features, and his gestures were dignified and elegant. He looked at the young monk who was bound by Chen Feng. By candlelight, he saw that he looked miserable, his face was sallow and thin, and he asked: "You want to see me?"
The little monk nodded again and again, snot and tears, so poor.
"What's the matter?"
At this time, the abbot of the temple also came. After all, it was the monks of the temple who caused the trouble, and their temple was also responsible.
After saluting to Xiao Jumao, he said: "Your Majesty, the discipline in the temple is not strict and disturbed you, I hope you will forgive me."
Xiao Jumao waved his hand, "No problem." Turning to Zhao Quandao who was at the side, "Go and move the chairs for me, several ministers and the master abbot. I will listen to the story in this yard tonight."
Zhao Quan took the order to go down, after a while, Xiao Jumao sat on the top seat, Tan Shiguan held a sword behind him to protect him, and several ministers sat on both sides.
Only then did Chen Feng escort the little monk into the courtyard, and threw it on the ground, "Speak." He stood beside the little monk to prevent him from doing any bad things.
The little monk wiped away his tears, and seriously kowtowed to Xiao Jumao, "The sinner kowtows to the emperor."
Xiao Jumao saw that he was not very old, but his eyes were full of sadness, so he couldn't help asking: "What grievance do you want to avenge?"
"Your Majesty, the sinners really have no way to avenge their grievances. Today, seeing the holy face, my head gets hot. Even if I die, I still have to beg the emperor to be the master of the sinners!" He didn't know Xiao Jumao's temperament, but there was someone A road, no matter whether it is a dead end or not, he has to break through.
"What kind of master? You should talk about it." Xiao Jumao didn't expect to encounter such a thing in the temple.
The little monk sniffed and told his story in a hoarse voice. The story was not long, but it was very infuriating.
He is not from the capital city, his real name is Dai Rong, his ancestral home is in the south of the Yangtze River, and his family has a hundred acres of fertile land. Although it is far from being as wealthy as the Zanying family, it can be regarded as a wealthy family in the local area.
His parents are still alive, there is a brother and a sister above him, the elder brother is already married, the sister-in-law is gentle and respectful, the elder sister is also engaged, the family is harmonious and beautiful.Unexpectedly, someone took a fancy to their family's fields and ancestral house and insisted on taking it by force. Naturally, they would not agree, but what they didn't expect was that the other party ignored the law and threatened their family with force.
They went to report to the government, but the county magistrate refused to accept it. Immediately afterwards, their home was smashed to pieces. The elder brother was not angry, so he went to the government office to file a complaint, but was told by the government office that he was suing a nobleman, and he had to kill a hundred people first. Wei Bang, brother was beaten to the point where most of his life was lost, half a month later, he just died like this.
The sister-in-law was already pregnant with Liujia, and died of dystocia in grief, with one dead body and two lives.The parents were in so much pain that they fell out of bed.He and his sister struggled to survive, taking care of their parents on the sickbed.At this moment, the family that was engaged to my sister came forward to withdraw the engagement. Although my sister felt ashamed, it could be seen that he was still young, but he still tried his best to support this family.
However, the family has been robbed clean by those thieves, so my sister had no choice but to pawn off the old jewelry to keep them from starving to death.
I thought this was the worst, but I didn't expect that the thief actually coveted my sister's appearance, directly took away her body, and my sister wanted to commit suicide, but was stopped by that man and trapped in the mansion as a concubine.
Although he is not very old, he has studied for a few years, and he still believes that there is justice in the world, so he discussed with his sister, since the county government and the government government can't cure the wicked person, then he will come to the capital to find more Big official.
But how can it be so easy to find high officials in the capital?He inquired about things while doing hard work, but he didn't know who to go to.Later, when he heard that the Minister of the Ministry of Punishment was upright and awe-inspiring, with a blue sky above his head, he boldly went to find him, but he was kicked out of the mansion.
After being blasted out of the mansion, he found that someone was going to kill him, so he ran away with all his strength, but he didn't dare to go to the city again, so he had to hide in the temple and live.
Hearing that the emperor came in person today, he thought that no matter how great the background of the thief was, he was no bigger than the emperor, so he wanted to face the emperor regardless of his life, and asked the emperor to make decisions for himself.
After hearing Dai Rong's accusation, Xiao Jumao felt that it was more tortuous than the script he had read, so he asked, "Do you know the name of the thief?"
Dai Rong frowned. Every time those adults heard this name, they dared not make decisions for him. This time, he hoped that the emperor could seek justice for him, so he replied, "I heard from my sister, that person's surname is Cai Mingli."
I have never heard of Cai Li and Xiao Jumao, but there is a family with this surname in the capital.Cai Guogong's Mansion is the premier home of Zhongming Dingshi in the capital.
The ministers present were all shocked, some of them had good relations with Duke Cai's mansion and planned to go back to get some fresh air, so they heard Xiao Jumao ask: "Do you know Cai Li?"
"My Majesty, I recognize it." It was Chen Feng who spoke.
Xiao Jumao signaled him to continue.
"Cai Li is the third son of Duke Cai, but because he was young and impulsive, he committed some crimes. The first emperor was angry and expelled him from the capital. He then went to the south of the Yangtze River and started a business in the south of the Yangtze River. In just a few years, he accumulated a large amount of wealth. .”
"How could Marquis Weiyuan know him so well?" He remembered that Chen Feng stayed at the border all year round, right?
Chen Feng was silent, and Fang said: "I dare not hide it, it is because the matter of Cai Li's expulsion was related to me, so I understand better."
Xiao Jumao thought to himself: Probably he has been waiting for the opportunity to counterattack?
"What did Cai Li commit back then?"
Chen Feng said indignantly: "Back then, he forced the minister's good friend to death." Speaking of this, he seemed unwilling to continue talking.
Seeing his sad face, Xiao Jumao didn't ask any more questions, and only said to Dai Rong: "I can't just listen to your side, but don't worry, I will have someone investigate this matter. If there is such a thing, I will definitely Give you justice." After he finished speaking, he looked at Chen Feng, "Marquis Weiyuan, let Dai Rong look after you for now, don't let anything happen again."
"The minister obeys the order!"
"The grass people thank the emperor Long En!"
When the matter came to an end, Chen Feng escorted Dai Rong away, and several ministers went back to their own rooms with their own thoughts.
Xiao Jumao sat on the bed, squinting his eyes in thought, tapping his index finger rhythmically on the quilt.
"Tell me, who should I send to investigate this case?"
He always felt that the relationship between Cai Guogong's mansion behind Cai Li and Jiangnan was not simple, so Dai Rong's family had nowhere to ask for help.However, Shi Tiewen actually kicked Dai Rong out of the house, which made Xiao Jumao feel that his image of being stern and selfless has collapsed.
"Does Your Majesty have a suitable candidate in mind?" Tan Shiguan sat at the table, quietly looking at the handsome and noble person on the bed.
Xiao Jumao shook his head, "It's difficult if there is no one."
All the people sent by Lan Yangui to Jiangnan died for no reason before, but now that there is another Cai Mansion, this case is really difficult to investigate.
"Your Majesty, I have a plan."
Xiao Jumao's eyes widened suddenly, "Say it quickly!"
Under the dim candlelight, the man's handsome face became more charming because of his earnestness. He said, "Let's change our thinking. Since Cai Li is not an official appointed by the court, then we don't need to show it on the bright side. Officialdom has its own way." , but Jianghu also has its own rules, since they dare to use Jianghu methods to kill people, why can't we use them?"
When Xiao Jumao heard the words, it was like enlightenment, Mao Sai suddenly realized, "You are right! But, how do the rules in the world come about?"
"This one is more complicated, and I can't finish it in a while." A concerned expression appeared on his face, "The night is getting dark, Your Majesty should rest early."
Xiao Jumao lay on the bed, holding Yuan Bao, with big eyes open, "I can't sleep."
Where can I stand the view of Tan Shi?I had no choice but to cough lightly, looked away, and said in a low voice: "Why don't I tell you something interesting that I have experienced before."
"it is good."
Xiao Jumao was lying on the bed, staring at Tan Shiguan who was sitting upright, the man's handsome brows implied nostalgia, and he said hilarious things in a low and pleasant voice, the corners of Xiao Jumao's lips curled up , Without knowing it, I closed my eyes and fell asleep.
When Tan Shi saw his regular breathing, he stopped, and his eyes fell on Xiao Jumao again.
He got up and walked to the bed, stretched out his hand to cover the quilt tightly, and finally, gently kissed the emperor's smooth and fair forehead, very light, very light, but full of piety.
Xiao Jumao slept peacefully all night, and Tan Shiguan sat at the table with his sword in his arms for the whole night.
