Assassin A

Fifth Uncle left lightly.

The version heard by the unknown servants in the palace is that the old gardener returned to his hometown to visit his family.If you are a little clever, you will ask a few questions: "Wu Bo hasn't seen him back in the mansion for so many years, why is he suddenly visiting home now? Does he still have a home in the countryside?"

"Ouch~~Which manager is this kid under? He talks a lot, and he can be found everywhere~" Ge Dong folded his hands and shrank his neck and sneered, "The tongue is so long, why don't you just cut it off for the little one?" Grandpa marinated it into sauce and served it at the bar."

The boys were all silent and shivering.

There are also curious ones among the guards.Pu Shao patted his saber meaningfully, and he was honest.

Don't worry about the maids, the girls are just sorry that the gardener is gone, and they are afraid that the flowers and plants in the yard will not be taken care of.Cuicui bowed her head, embroidering a purse, and said, "Uncle Wu will come back, he just went to find his brother."

Rong Min waving a fan and sitting under a tree to enjoy the shade, Lin Mengqing, Xu Xitang and other young masters stood in front of him.

Mr. Lin lowered his head and clenched the fan tightly in his hand.The prince finally wanted to send them all away... donating money, real estate, and acres of land, and even allowing him and Xitang to ask for one or two more favorites at will.

"It's good for you to accompany me to study and relax with me on weekdays. Now that I'm older, I can no longer delay the future and life-long events of all the young masters."

I don't want a future, I just want to be by Wang Ye's side!

Xu Xitang glanced at Lin Mengqing who was standing beside him.He naturally knew what this brother was thinking, but it was a pity that the prince was not someone who could put affection on people like them.

In fact, as the prince said, these young masters are just diners who accompany the prince to relax and make the prince happy.

Before coming to the palace, his father also considered it for a long time.King Qingnan's reputation is indeed not good, but at least the child has been in for a few years, the prince will not treat him badly, right?Besides, it is not uncommon for men to be friends with men among nobles...

Although their Xu family is an old-fashioned scholarly family, their ancestors were once brilliant, but later on, there were only three or two of them who achieved fame and fame, and they didn't see how outstanding they were.His family is a side branch, and it is really barely supporting the facade.

Therefore, now that the prince is giving money, house and land, it really hits Xu Xitang's wishes.Moreover, the prince has never treated him well, and it is nothing to be a little intimate on weekdays.

Xu Xitang raised his head and glanced at King Qingnan, "So, Xitang thanked the lord~ I have one more request, I wonder if the lord would like to do me a favor?"

oh?This guy is good, on the road!Rong Min smiled slightly: "But it doesn't matter."

"My second brother plans to take the imperial examination next year. I wonder if the prince can inform his acquaintances in the capital to give some advice?"

"It's easy to say, before you go to Beijing, bring your brother over and let me have a look, and I'll write a recommendation post later."

Satisfied, Xu Xitang thanked the prince again and again with a smile on his handsome face, and then went back to pack his things.

The other princes had Xu Xitang as their leader, and they all rushed to express their gratitude to the prince. Some of them also asked the prince to agree to one thing or ask for one or two things, and then dispersed one after another. The house packs up the belongings, not to mention.

Lin Mengqing and the others left, but he was still not reconciled, so he wanted to give it a try one last time.

Rong Min suppressed his irritability, the person in front of him was probably the most troublesome.The only one to blame is himself. Usually he likes to tease Lin Mengqing when he sees Lin Mengqing being gentle, gentle, handsome and charming, but now he is probably going to turn into a sticky cake...

The so-called self-inflicted crime~ Then pay it back yourself.The big deal is to give a lot of money and a lot of things.

Unfortunately, when Lin Mengqing finally spoke, the good temper that Rong Min had accumulated in pursuit of a better life in the future completely disappeared.This person, want to stay? !

"presumptuous!"

What can he stay for?Neither has the talent of a counselor like Mr. Cai, nor the skill of a guard like Pu Shao.Playing the piano, singing, writing a word and drawing a picture?This can't be eaten as food, nor can it bring any benefits to the Southern Region.

In fact, Rong Min felt somewhat regretful for recruiting these young people into the mansion.Although people who understand know that they are shields, King Qingnan really didn't expect that he would meet a really caring guy in his life.

He used to have no one in his heart, so it didn't matter if he played with these young masters for real or fake, but now he is fifteen, and other than this guy, everyone else has black eyes...

Especially Lin Mengqing, who crushed a rice dumpling just because he was closer to Shiwu!I don't know if this is his family's favorite food at Shiwu?

"My lord...I am sincere to you, I...I am jealous of your kindness to others. I just want to stay, and being with my lord is enough."

envy?What qualifications do you have to be jealous of my fifteen?

Rong Min shook his legs, and closed his fan with a flick of his hand: "Others? You mean Fifteen? Then let me tell you, this king is not only nice to Fifteen, but also likes him and likes him. If you are sensible Yes, quickly accept the reward and leave!"

Turning his head, he saw Mr. Cai leisurely pacing in the corridor, and immediately ordered the servant to invite him over.

When Cai Ting came to the shade of the tree, he saw the prince's expression was unkind, and Young Master Lin was kneeling with a sad face, so he immediately guessed the reason.

"Mr. Cai, please enlighten Mr. Lin, the king still has official duties."

Rong Min didn't have so much time to talk to idlers like Lin Mengqing.With the fallow season approaching, there were many official duties to be dealt with in farming and water conservancy, and he was still thinking about the case of diversion canals.

This year's drought in the southern region is not too serious, but it has already reduced the production of rice and damaged the roots of tea trees. If it happens again, won't it completely hurt the vitality of the southern region?

Cai Ting saluted King Qingnan's leaving back, his eyes full of admiration.

People who don't know much about the prince say that the little prince has a very unpredictable temper, and some say that he is arrogant and arrogant.But Cai Ting watched Rong Min grow from naughty and willful to mature, and also watched his temper become more and more weird due to years of suppression.Impulsive but calculating, naive but indifferent, full of contradictions.

Nowadays, there are foreign invaders in northern Xinjiang, and the opening of the canal urgently needs to transport food from the south to the north.The crown prince and the second prince are fighting each other, although it looks like they are evenly divided, but Taifu Liu's party will drag the prince down sooner or later.After all, there is Li Zan...

Since they formed an alliance with the second prince, the surrounding Fengzhou Yuncheng has eradicated Liu Taifu's lackeys one by one. The Southern Region is no longer a place where people can be bullied as before.

Cai Ting never praised the prince for caring about the people and caring for every plant and tree in the fief. In his opinion, this is what a qualified feudal prince should do.The old prince is like this, and so is the little prince.

That's why he, Cai Ting, was willing to give up his transcendent status as a famous scholar in Fengzhou and be willing to be a counselor in Qingnan Palace.

He straightened up and turned his head to glance at Lin Mengqing who was staring at the direction where King Qingnan was leaving, Cai Ting smiled indifferently.

In fact, he also agreed with the prince to break up these sons, raising a group of waste who only knew about romance has always made this counselor worry in various ways.

In the past, it was necessary to find a reason to reject those marriages, but now that the foundation has been stabilized, and the power in the southern region is increasingly relied on by the royal family, with the prince's temper, he would rather yell at those people directly than endure it.

Not to mention... the prince's character, if he misses one person, he will offend everyone and refuse to let that person suffer any grievances.

Cai Ting stroked his beard with a smile, "Mr. Lin, I heard that your mother lived a very poor life in the prefect's mansion."

Filial piety, benevolence and righteousness.

Here I will give you a lot of money, farmland and acres, so that you can take your biological mother out to enjoy the blessings, don't you want it?Do you want to let your mother continue to be looked down upon in the prefect's mansion for your own infatuation that others don't care about?

Lin Mengqing raised her head and stared viciously at Cai Ting, who was standing beside her with her hands behind her back. The love for children in her heart was directly labeled as "unfilial".

"Mr. Lin, you didn't come to the palace before. Even if you were filial, you didn't have the ability to let your mother live a good life. Now you have the opportunity to be filial, but you are not filial because of your own selfishness. As a son of man..."

"Enough!" Lin Mengqing snorted, "Mr. Cai is very eloquent, Mengqing has learned from it."

King Qingnan, who cleaned out all the idlers raised in the palace, diligently fulfilled his obligations as a prince.

He closed the last volume of official documents, stood up and stretched himself.

He invited someone to come in and asked where Shiwu was going, and he went to play with him with his confidant boy.

Rong Min made all the arrangements.

In his free time on weekdays, he taught Fifteen how to play mahjong and touch dominoes, and let Fifteen accompany him to play sword games and practice boxing.The guards in the mansion never dared to offend him, and he always felt that his martial arts skills were not bad, in short, he was like a young man who was used to kung fu.

Stride all the way down the corridor, thinking while walking.

Fifteen will definitely not show mercy to him.He heard from the guards that this guy was so ruthless when he beat Shen Yufeng, "It almost kicked Shen Shaoxia out of the urine."

Rong Min lowered his head and laughed.Although the guard's words were rough, they were still vivid.

And... what about sparring, isn't it just a good time to take advantage of it?Touch his family's fifteen's little face?Hee hee hee~~ Fifteenth is on the night shift today, so naturally he rests in his small courtyard in the afternoon.

When he was approaching the yard, Rong Min deliberately slowed down his steps, and the villain Ge Dong, who was following behind him, also stood on tiptoes and lifted lightly, extremely wretched.From a distance, the master and servant are like two thieves...

Cai Ting stood on the corridor not far away and shook his head, that's all, let the prince play happily.At least, as long as fifteen is here, the prince will be happy, and that kind of twisted look will seldom appear again.

Every time Rong Min thinks of being able to have fun with Fifteen, his heart warms up. The excitement and anticipation are enough to dispel all the bad temper caused by irritating public and private affairs.

When I came to the door, I only heard the sound of swords fighting inside.Looking in from the open courtyard door, I saw that Shiwu was fighting Shen Yufeng with a long sword in his hand.

But why is fifteen holding a sword in his right hand?

Rong Min took half a step back.

In a short while, Shen Yufeng's sword was thrown away by Fifteen, and he said contemptuously: "I, a left-hander, can't beat you with my right hand with two fingers missing?"

Chu Ba also booed: "Our [-]th just killed Shen Shaoxia with only three fingers!"

He Yuntian chuckled: "Xiao Feng is trash~"

Rong Min thought sourly: Why does my fifteenth family care so much about Shen Yufeng?I'm afraid that the Shen family's idiot won't understand the clumsy way of provoking generals, and he will have to bear the grudge fifteen times.

"Brother! You will start teaching me tomorrow! To think that my majestic Yufeng Sword was defeated by such little assassins, I am so angry!"

Fifteen dumbfoundedly reminded him: "It was defeated by a little assassin who can only use three fingers, or a left-handed man who beat you with his right hand."

"Ahhhhh!!! God~~"

Ge Dong covered his mouth with his hands.If he knows kung fu, he will come and trample on Shen Shaoxia, this person is very interesting!

The sound of "Bang!" was probably the sound of Shen Yufeng slamming the door and going back to the house.

It was quiet inside, Rong Min was about to lift his feet when Chu Ba sighed quietly: "Where did Uncle Wu go?"

Fifteen replied: "Uncle Wu is an old man, so he must be prudent and calculating. We don't have to worry about him. I really miss Fourth Brother and Sister Hong. There is no news from Mr. Li now, and they will not come on the first day of junior high school and the thirty-thirty children." A letter!"

"Thirty children... oh~~"

Rong Min frowned slightly and stood still. Judging from Chu Ba's tone, there seemed to be something wrong with that San San'er?Fifteen pairs of people in Xuanji Camp are so caring, so don't be too sad.

Just as I was thinking, I suddenly heard someone pounding on the stone table, "If there is a chance, I will kill the prince with my own hands!"

"Fifteen! Don't talk nonsense!"

Rong Min stood outside the door, but his heart ached to death, you idiot!Why are you pounding on the table when you feel sad?Throwing things, there are plenty of things in the palace, just smash them casually.

"The eighth day, I don't understand. Aren't we loyal to Master Li? Isn't Master Li loyal to the country? Will this country not belong to the prince in the future? Why does he treat us like this?"

"I also do not understand……"

Rong Min felt as if someone had stabbed him, it hurt~~ How did Li Zan teach these assassins?Yu Zhong!fool!

"On the eighth day of the lunar new year, the Xuanji camp seems to have really disbanded. Do you have any plans for the future?"

"No plan. I will wait for Master Li's order. At least, I will avenge my brothers!"

"Okay! Count me in!"

Rong Min didn't go in afterwards, but returned to the study with the servant.

The next day, a group of servants brought a lot of bottles and jars and various decorations to the small courtyard.

Ge Dong said with a smile: "My lord ordered that in the future, Brother Fifteen will smash these things to relieve his anger when he has something unhappy."

Fifteen blinked, "Then... can I take these out and sell them for silver? You just think I smashed them all."

Ge Dong: "..."

In the city of Fengzhou, there was a big wooden basin in front of a dirty old man with three live fish in it.The old man sat on the ground with his legs curled up, his head hanging down as if he was asleep.

"I want all your fish, can you give me some money?"

The old man didn't even look up, but humbly muttered: "Here, I'll give you ten dollars, my fish is fresh."

A big rough hand pressed his wrist to grab the straw rope, "I have bad legs and feet, please go to my house."

The old man finally raised his head, "Okay."

Entrusting the big wooden basin to the vegetable vendor next to him to help watch, the old fish seller followed behind the buyer with the fish in his hand. The two turned around the corner of the street, walked through two alleys, and finally entered an ordinary small courtyard...

"Second year of junior high school! You are really hard-nosed, you old man!"

The fish fell to the ground and thumped in despair. I rolled my eyes and looked at the two crying old men, thinking: Do you want to stew it or braise it in brown sauce?Hurry up and give us a good time~~ "Tianyi Institute?" The emperor closed the memorial and fell into deep thought, remembering what Li Zan had said to him when he was under house arrest.

[Whether it is the prince or the princes, they are all your sons, and they may all inherit the throne.The ministers have never been partial to any one, unless what they do is not good for the country. 】 Relatives!It's all caused by those relatives!

The emperor frowned.

How could he not know the "good deeds" done by the Queen's family!But Liu Taifu's party feathers are so intertwined, how can it be easily shaken?Li Zan~~ You make me very difficult!

"Father is partial." The second prince, Li Zhongyang, smiled slightly and set down the chess piece.

"He's very good at finding reasons." Li Zan held the chess piece until he was in no hurry to drop it, and his expression didn't look like a person under house arrest, instead he looked at ease.

"I guess the emperor is looking for a shield to excuse himself again, similar to restraining each other, balancing the power of the court, etc. He is wronged by the emperor, and he is so wise and powerful when he is restrained by the minister~"

Li Zhongyang was slightly surprised, and immediately smiled: "The people here have all changed?"

Li Zan dropped the pawn in his hand: "Xuanji Camp is not as easy to deal with as others think. I don't intend to continue my allegiance to a stupid emperor. Especially when he puts the interests of the country behind himself..."

Li Zhongyang stopped to take the chess piece, "Little Huangshu's admonition today, Zhongyang will keep it in mind."

Li Zan also stopped, but changed the subject: "I heard that Brother Huang is anxious to make meritorious service to the crown prince. Wait for Kai Chun'er to let him lead troops to the northern border?"

"Yes."

"Oh, he really prefers this son."

Li Zhongyang smiled without saying a word.

Li Zan stretched out his finger and pointed at the back of his hand: "Uncle Xiao Huang is lending you this gun now, but the gun will be turned around at any time... It all depends on what you plan to do."

"If you have a good weapon to charge outside, I will definitely provide the thickest shield."

Li Zan smiled contemptuously: "Who cares about your shield, what I want is someone who understands."

When Li Zhongyang came out of Prince Geng's mansion, he felt his back was soaked.What kind of rights did the little emperor get from the late emperor?

What he wanted was a Mingjun, and the so-called Mingjun... What is the definition of Li Zan?This man is like a ferocious beast guarding the throne, eyeing him like a tiger.It shocked the ministers of the court, and also shocked the people in their seats.

Xuanji camp is just a line, if you move it, you can't pull it out like a mountain behind.

Li Zhongyang suddenly felt lucky.Although the little emperor's uncle is a prince, it's a pity that he was born at an untimely time, and his mother's family has an ordinary status and has no backing.Otherwise, this throne...

Sitting in the sedan chair, his hands were fisted on his knees.Uncle Huang, I will not let you down.Also, won't give you the chance to...

On the first day of the lunar new year, he knelt down on one knee, quietly waiting for Master Li's order.

However, Li Zan let out a sigh of relief: "The eighth day should have arrived in the Southern Region. The King of Qingnan is a smart man, and everything has been settled there. You should go there yourself. If Rong Min releases him, take fifteen with him." When you come back, if you don’t release them, let Fifteen start contacting the people in the camp. The time limit is three months, and no matter how many are found after three months, they will all be evacuated to Qingnan Palace and wait for my arrangement.”

After finishing speaking, he handed a letter to Chu Yi: "Rong Min will naturally take in everyone after seeing it."

It's such a pity, even though Li Zan was extremely smart, he never expected that the King of Qingnan had rushed to take over the Xuanji camp early in order to keep a certain assassin.Not to mention a dozen or twenty, he doesn't care if there are one hundred or two hundred.

According to Rong Min's words: "This king has enough rice and some silver! Even if the dog emperor is really anxious to call, at worst I will take people to Xun country, and I will call back when they withdraw~"

At that time, Shiwu asked curiously, "Then what if we call again?"

"Run again~~come, kiss~"
