Regent sucks cats daily

Dingguo government office.

Ding Ran took a break today and was teaching Xiao Fan martial arts in the courtyard, while Zhu Hongye was practicing Zhu's sword manual by himself.

"Okay, you all should rest for a while." Ding Ran called the two children over, "Have a cup of tea."

Xiao Fan and Zhu Hongye obediently came over and sat down, wiping the sweat from their foreheads.

"Sister Ding Ran!" A voice came from outside the courtyard, and Ding Ran recognized who it was. She looked up, and sure enough, Shen Yu ran in with a smile and came to her.

"Why are you here?" Ding Ran pulled her to sit down.

Shen Yu was the first friend she met in the capital, and she admired Shen Yu's temperament very much.

"I know you are off today, so I came here specially to play with you. Last time I got your advice, my martial arts has improved again. Today, while you are free, I would like to invite you to Zuixiangju to have a meal and express my gratitude." Shen Yu Pulling her sleeves and shaking them.

Ding Ran shook his head helplessly, his eyes fell on Xiao Fan, "I have to teach my apprentice, I really don't have time."

Shen Yu didn't give up, hugged her whole body and didn't let go, humming: "You just go with me! You also know that I'm boring by myself, and you still don't want to wait until you are free." She said and looked at Xiao Fan, "Xiao Fan, can your master lend me a day today, can you?"

Xiao Fan was watching the fun with Zhu Hongye, when she asked him out of the blue, he nodded stupidly, "Okay."

Shen Yu stood up abruptly, grabbed Ding Ran's wrist, and walked directly to the door, "Your apprentice agrees, so you can go with me!"

Shen Yu was spoiled by her parents since she was a child, and she has a great ability to act like a baby. Ding Ran is a few years older than her, and he treats her as a younger sister. Once she said a few words, his heart softened.Fortunately, what I have taught Xiao Fan today is almost the same, the rest only needs to be practiced seriously by Xiao Fan.

"Okay, but I'll go back to the house and change my clothes first."

After the two left the residence, Xiao Fan planned to practice by himself, but unexpectedly, Zhu Hongye stopped him.

"Xiaofan, I have something to tell you." Zhu Hongye was dressed in a lake blue martial arts uniform, which made him slender and tall, and looked very good-looking.

Seeing his serious expression, Xiao Fan suddenly felt a little uneasy, and stared at him with wide eyes, "Brother Hongye, what do you want to say?"

Seeing his anxious eyes, Zhu Hongye felt a little sour in his heart, and asked in a low voice: "Xiaofan, do you know that all my relatives have been killed?"

Xiao Fan nodded slowly.

Zhu Hongye continued: "I heard that it seems to be done by some big man in the capital."

"Second Uncle and the others will avenge you!" Xiao Fan tugged at his sleeve, "Don't be sad."

Zhu Hongye smiled and shook his head, "Xiaofan, I can't wait for others to avenge my revenge, I want to avenge it myself. I heard from the head of the punishment that those who killed my family took Yincao. It is said that Yincao is only Di Guo has it."

Xiao Fan's heart skipped a beat, "Brother Hongye, what do you want to do?"

Zhu Hongye put his hands on his thin shoulders, and said seriously: "Xiaofan, I can't stay in Dingguo's mansion all the time, I want to support myself, and I want to avenge my grandfather and the others." He took a deep breath, " I'm going to join the army."

Xiao Fan couldn't help but grabbed his hand, "Brother Hongye, why?"

"I heard that Second Uncle Tan also left home to join the army when he was young, and now he has become Duke Ding. I know that I am definitely not as good as him, but I will work hard."

Xiao Fan shook his head desperately, "But you are only 13 years old! What will you do if you really go to the battlefield? What if you... die?"

It's not that Zhu Hongye has never thought about this problem, but this is the path he chose. He used to live in a muddleheaded way, but now that he has a goal, no matter how hard it is, he will go on.

"It's better than living meaninglessly now."

Seeing his firm expression, Xiao Fan knew he couldn't persuade him anymore, but he still looked at him stubbornly.

"Xiao Fan, thank you for thinking of me." Zhu Hongye had been brewing these words in his stomach for a long time, and finally said them today.

Xiao Fan moved his lips, tears flashed in his eyes, he choked up and said, "Then where are you going?"

"Go to the border." Zhu Hongye reached out and pinched his face, "Don't be sad, I will come back to see you."

"Then when are you leaving?" Xiao Fan wiped away his tears, his eyes were red, "How?"

"I have already thought about it. General Dong at the border will return to Beijing to report on his duties. He will return to the border in a few days. I want to find him."

"You, do you want to tell the second uncle?"

Zhu Hongye nodded, "If he returns home, I will bid farewell in person, and if he does not return home, I will leave a letter."

No matter how reluctant Xiao Fan was, he couldn't stop him. Seeing that Zhu Hongye continued to practice swords, he had no choice but to practice with him.

It would be great if I could help Brother Hongye take revenge.

The matter in Dingguo's mansion quickly reached Tan Shiguan's ears, he told Xiao Jumao about Zhu Hongye's matter, Xiao Jumao nodded and praised: "The idea is good."

Since you want to go out and make a living by yourself, then let him go.

"However, why did you run away from home to join the army at that time?" Xiao Jumao hadn't heard about this before.

Tan Shi watched and heard the words, and wrote lightly: "I went out after a quarrel with my elder brother, but there is an elder brother in Yunxiao Mountain Villa, so I planned to go out for a break."

Xiao Jumao really couldn't imagine the appearance of Tan Shiguan arguing with others. He believed Tan Lie's violent temper quarrel, but he didn't believe Tan Shiguan's quarrel. At most, this person had a pair of dark eyes Watching, not saying a word.

"You must have suffered a lot, right?" Xiao Jumao felt pain in his heart when he thought of those scars on his body, especially the arrow wound in the middle of his chest.

Tan Shiguan brought a thin blanket and covered his lap, "It's okay, it's just that the sleeping is worse than usual."

How can it be that simple?Eating and sleeping are secondary, and the most important thing is that life is at stake.How can it be so easy to become Duke Ding from a recruit?

"As soon as Zhu Hongye left, Xiao Fan would have no friends again." Xiao Jumao understood Xiao Fan's feelings very well. He had no friends in the palace when he was a child, and he was very lonely alone. Fortunately, his mother and concubine accompanied him for so many years .

"If you don't have friends, you can concentrate on your studies." Tan Shiguan is still very strict with Xiao Fan.

"Haha, you reminded me of the previous scene, my face was dark every day, and I had nightmares at night because of you." Xiao Jumao "praise" him without hesitation.

Tan Shiguan's handsome eyebrows were tinged with a smile, "Still having nightmares now?"

Xiao Jumao approached him and said in a low voice: "Nowadays the ghosts are pressing the bed every night, what do you think should be done?"

"What the hell?"

"Hungry ghost in color."

The man raised his eyebrows suddenly, and a gentle look appeared on his originally serious face, "The humble minister will have a look tonight, what kind of audacious pervert is it that dares to covet His Majesty, how about I catch him for you?"

Xiao Jumao was thicker than him, so he picked up a memorial and threw it at him, "Let's finish approving the memorial first."

Zuixiangju.

As soon as Shen Yu dragged Ding Ran into the shop, he was warmly received by the shop assistant, "Miss Shen, Coach Ding, you two rare customers, please come with me."

Seeing him leading her to an empty seat in the lobby, Shen Yu said in displeasure: "My lady finally invited Coach Ding today, so naturally she wants a private room. What do you mean? Are you looking down on me or looking down on me?" Coach Ding?"

The store clerk immediately apologized with a troubled face: "It's not good to be small, but the private room is gone. If you and Coach Ding are willing to wait, then the young one will serve you a pot of tea first. If not, then... ..."

"Forget it, let's eat in this lobby." It doesn't matter where Ding Ran eats, she doesn't care about it.

Furiously, Shen Yu found a vacant seat and sat down, staring at the waiter while ordering food, "If there is a spare private room later, I will move it for Miss Ben."

The shop waiter nodded and bowed, "Young one, remember, don't worry, Miss Shen." Then he went down to give orders to the kitchen.

Shen Yu personally poured a pot of tea for Ding Ran, and said with a smile: "You have been staying in the training camp, and if you have time, you will give it to your apprentice. I really want to eat and chat with you alone. Who knows it's not the right time."

Ding Ran said with a helpless smile: "If you really want to go to the private room, just change to another one. Why do you have to go to this one?"

Shen Yu took a sip of tea, her almond eyes widened, "Of course I invite you to come to Zuixiangju, this is the best restaurant in the capital."

Ding Ran had nothing to say when he heard the words.

"You said what are you going to teach those men? Why don't you set up a lecture hall and only accept female disciples." Shen Yu rubbed against her and took her hand. You are welcome in our hearts, if you really recruit female disciples, everyone will definitely go."

Ding Ran didn't believe her words, "I'm afraid you are the only one among them, right? I don't know, many people scolded me behind my back, saying that I don't obey women's morals. As a woman, I don't marry and have children. What kind of training camp instructor, can you wish to write articles to scold me for insulting the sages?"

Shen Yu snorted coldly, "A group of pedantic people, you are the coach hand-picked by the emperor, they only dare to curse a few words in their hearts, if someone dares to write it, I respect him as a man instead, it's a pity, but They are just villains who are greedy for life and afraid of death."

Ding Ran just admired her willfulness. She learned martial arts in a school since she was a child, and she was the best among all the disciples, surpassing all the male disciples, so she never felt that she was inferior to men. For the emperor's kindness, she Always grateful.

"The dishes are here, let's eat." Seeing her swollen face, Ding Ran felt amused, so he coaxed her to move his chopsticks.

Shen Yu had just eaten a few mouthfuls when she looked up and saw guests coming down from the second floor, so she called the waiter and ordered: "I saw someone coming downstairs, quickly bring us these dishes and tea upstairs, let's go up first Wait." As she spoke, she pulled Ding Ran up and quickly walked upstairs.

The store clerk was very agile, he stopped in front of Shen Yu and Ding Ran, and said with a smile: "Miss Shen, Coach Ding, I'm really sorry, there are indeed no rooms upstairs."

Shen Yu felt furious, "You can look down on this lady, but you can't look down on the coach Ding appointed by the emperor! I clearly saw someone coming out, and it was him, sister Ding Ran, stop him quickly!"

The ear of the person who just came downstairs moved slightly, and he couldn't help speeding up his pace.Ding Ran frowned, and moved in front of him like lightning, with a trace of confusion on his beautiful face.

Shen Yu angrily came to the guest and asked him, "Did you eat upstairs just now?"

Cheng Jiang didn't know what the hot-tempered girl in front of him was going to do, and he had a lot of thoughts in his mind, and finally replied: "Yes."

Shen Yu immediately quit, staring at the waiter with aggrieved face, "You still say no?"

The store clerk only felt a sudden pain in his brain, why did he provoke such an ancestor?The rumors are indeed true, this daughter of the Shen family has a bad temper, no wonder she can't get married.

"This guest has other friends up there. He just left alone. Miss Shen, don't wrong me."

The other guests in the lobby were all watching. When Shen Yu said that, she really felt that she had wronged him, and her face flushed, "Really, really?" She looked at Cheng Jiang.

Cheng Jiang had already received the hint from the buddy, so he nodded.

Shen Yu was ashamed in front of everyone, almost crying.Although Ding Ran didn't want to cause trouble, he couldn't bear to let her be wronged, so he said loudly: "You are lying!"

She has extraordinary hearing, so she can naturally tell which rooms upstairs are noisy and which ones are not. Just now when this person left the room, she knew that there was no one in that room, but she didn't say it right away, thinking Let's talk about it when the guest comes downstairs, but unexpectedly, the waiter and the guest teamed up to bully Shen Yu, of course she couldn't bear it.

Her voice was filled with internal strength, and it was deafening. Everyone in the lobby fell silent and looked towards this side.

Shen Yu immediately swallowed her grievance, and looked at Ding Ran with bright eyes.

"That Instructor Ding, there really isn't upstairs..." Before the buddy finished speaking, Ding Ran suddenly jumped to the door of a room on the second floor, stretched out his hand and pushed it, and then turned his back to the wide open door, saying loudly : "Are you going to continue lying?"

The store clerk and Cheng Jiang didn't know what to say for a while, but Shen Yu just felt that Ding Ran was too domineering, so he stood in the hall and looked up with a smile.

"Why don't you quickly move it to the table? My lady has a lot, so I don't care about it with you, hum!" She tossed her braids and was about to go upstairs.

"Miss Shen, please wait a moment!" The shopkeeper of the restaurant came in from outside the store, walked up to Shen Yu, and explained, "Miss Shen, you misunderstood, and it's also because the guy didn't explain clearly. Actually, people who come to our place often I know, that room is reserved for the relatives and friends of the owner's family, and generally does not accept other guests," he said, and then looked up at Ding Ran upstairs, "Master Ding, you and Ms. Shen really misunderstood the small shop. Yes. Both you and Ms. Shen will be exempted from today’s food expenses, so it’s a small shop’s apology.”

Shen Yu seldom dined here, so she didn't know the rules here. Ding Ran just came to the capital not long ago and had never been here before, so he didn't know the rules. The two had an oolong in the restaurant.

Of course, this oolong is only in the eyes of ordinary people.

After Shen Yu heard the shopkeeper's explanation, she kept scolding Jiang Ling in her heart, saying that she could do me a favor, and now she was really embarrassed. After returning home, her parents would definitely blame her, all because of that bastard Jiang Ling!

In the teahouse opposite Zuixiangju, Jiang Ling sneezed several times out of the blue, and Chen Feng who was at the side handed him the teacup, "Hurry up and cover it, it's cold, you need to wear more clothes when you come out."

Jiang Ling liked it in his heart, but he said with distaste: "I see, you are more nagging than my mother." But the smile on the corner of his brow betrayed him.

Chen Feng smiled, but didn't speak.

Jiang Ling sighed, "I don't know what happened to them."

He felt that Chen Feng's identity was too intimidating, so he approached Shen Yu and asked her to help with this. Shen Yu was originally a fun-loving person, and when he heard that there were rewards, he agreed excitedly. What's more, she This is an excuse to ask sister Ding Ran to come out to play together.

"With Coach Ding around, nothing will happen." Chen Feng reassured him.

Jiang Ling nodded, "I know, after all, she is the most powerful coach in your training camp." He teased.

Chen Feng didn't deny it either, he admired people with real materials, regardless of whether the other party was a man or a woman.

At this time, some of Jiang Ling's cronies came over to pass on the news. Jiang Ling was overjoyed when he heard this, "Teacher Ding is really good! Chen Feng, it's time for us to play."

Inside the Zuixiang residence, Shen Yu looked up at Ding Ran pitifully, wishing to find a crack in the ground to sneak in immediately, but Ding Ran asked calmly, "I don't know the name of this guest?"

There is no way to hide the name, and if you don't hide it at this time, you will appear guilty, so Cheng Jiang had to answer the truth.

Ding Ran gave a "hmm" and asked again: "I wonder what relationship you have with the owner of Zuixiangju?"

"What does this have to do with Coach Ding?" Cheng Jiang asked back.

"If there is, then it means that I misunderstood the store owner, and I will apologize. If not, it means that you conspired with the store owner to cheat, and I will seek justice for Sister Shen."

"That's right." The surrounding guests echoed.

Since it is said that only relatives and friends can enter, then explain clearly.

The shopkeeper really wanted to give himself a brick, wouldn't it be fine if he just said that the room is not available to customers for the time being?Love to eat, don't like to eat!But now it is a dilemma!

Cheng Jiang bit the bullet and replied: "I am a friend of the owner of the restaurant. Do you have any questions for Coach Ding?"

No one can confirm this statement, and no one can refute it, because no one knows who the owner of the restaurant is, as long as the shopkeeper admits it.

"Since we are friends, why did the master not accompany him and only let Mr. Cheng drink alone? Doesn't it seem unreasonable?" Ding Ran didn't want to be so aggressive and messy, but she didn't want Shen Yu to be angry here.

The shopkeeper immediately replied: "Master's family has something to go out today, so I couldn't accompany Mr. Cheng."

Ding Ran vaguely guessed Cheng Jiang's identity from his behavior, so he said: "Mr. Cheng finally returned to Beijing for a few days, but it happened that his friend was out. It's really regrettable."

Cheng Jiang smiled back at the right time: "I came down here to wait for my friend. Before I waited, I wanted to leave first, but was blocked by Coach Ding."

This is secretly scolding them for making trouble.

Ding Ran sneered suddenly, and asked in a deep voice: "Then why are there two cups of hot tea on the table in this room? Could it be that Mr. Cheng is waiting for a friend to come and have a cup of herbal tea to calm down the fire?"

She moved her body away, and upon hearing the words, the troublemaker hurried upstairs to look inside from the corridor, only to find that there were indeed two cups of tea on the table!It's still steaming!

Could it be that Mr. Cheng has some special hobby?

The faces of Cheng Jiang and the shopkeeper suddenly sank.

The shop assistant was about to take advantage of the chaos to go out quietly, when two people stepped in from outside the restaurant and blocked his way.

Jiang Ling smiled and said: "It's so lively today, it seems that my son and Marquis Weiyuan are in good time."

As he spoke, he looked up upstairs, pretending to be surprised and said: "Is Coach Ding here? It's really a fate. Xiaoer, prepare a private room for me, I want to have a drink with Marquis Weiyuan!"

Where does the shop boy dare to move?

Chen Feng looked sharply at the shopkeeper and Cheng Jiang, "What happened?"

A guest who wanted to please Marquis Weiyuan quickly explained to him what had happened. Chen Feng nodded and before he could speak, Jiang Ling said again, "What's all the fuss about? Some people just like to hold a cup in one hand and take a sip from the left." , take a sip from the right side, it’s normal.”

Everyone: "..." What's normal?

"However, I still want to see it with my own eyes." He said, leaving Chen Feng behind, quickly went up to the second floor, ran into the room, and then shouted, "This guest's arm is so long! It can reach across the table." Drink tea with a teacup, admiration!"

The corners of Chen Feng's mouth twitched. He knew that Jiang Ling was mocking Cheng Jiang. After all, judging by the positions of the two teacups, it must be two people drinking tea facing each other. Of course, it wouldn't be one person holding a cup on each side, but listen. Why are you so pissed off?

Those present had the same idea as him.

At this time, Ding Ran asked calmly again: "I only saw Mr. Cheng coming down the stairs. I don't know why this friend who was drinking with me suddenly disappeared?"

"Maybe he jumped out of the window instead of taking the usual path?" Jiang Ling replied from the room.

The shopkeeper wiped his sweat and said, "Actually, the owner just didn't go downstairs, he..."

The more explanations the more far-fetched.

"So, as a friend, it's impossible to go downstairs to see him off? Besides, since it is said that he is upstairs, why is there no sign of him when the incident has happened?" Ding Ran stared at Cheng Jiang with deep eyes. , "Everything seems so weird, could it be that this room is haunted and can make people disappear without anyone noticing?"

Everyone felt a cool air pouring from the soles of their feet to their hearts, and their bodies trembled a few times.

"Ah!" Jiang Ling's shout suddenly came from the room.

Chen Feng jumped to the second floor and rushed into the room. Seeing Jiang Ling slumped on the ground, he worriedly asked, "What's wrong with you?"

Jiang Ling said aggrievedly, "I tripped over a chair."

Chen Feng took a glance and found that the few chairs hadn't moved at all, without the slightest sign of being moved.It stands to reason that if people tripped over, the chairs should at least be tilted a bit, but these few still stood there neatly.

"Which one?"

Jiang Ling pointed to the one next to his right hand, "It's weird, I fell, but it's still fine."

Chen Feng pushed him out, "You go out first."

Seeing his serious expression, Jiang Ling withdrew from the door and stood beside Ding Ran.

The face of the shopkeeper and Cheng Jiang under the hall was as black as charcoal. The shopkeeper secretly looked at the clerk, intending to let him go out to report the news, but the clerk quietly moved towards the door in a panic.

"No one wants to leave." Ding Ran stood on the second floor, his eyes fell on the clerk, and his voice full of inner strength fell on the clerk's ears, almost deafening him.

At this time, Chen Feng in the room pushed a chair hard, but did not push it.He sank his eyes, summoned his internal strength, grabbed the back of the chair, and pulled it back.

The chair finally moved, and what moved with it was the floor under the table, where a fan-shaped hole suddenly appeared!He quickly pulled back the other three chairs in the same way. As he expected, a circular hole gradually appeared under the table, which was dark, cold and frightening.

"Teacher Ding, hurry up and inform Jingji Wei and Jing Zhaoyin, and others are not allowed to come in or out!"
