Unofficial History of Emperor Wuzong of the Ming Dynasty

The golden osmanthus is fragrant, and every household is busy worshiping the moon.

Jiang Bin came back from the village, holding a lot of fruit cakes given by the villagers in his arms, and walked in a hurry.In the past, he never looked forward to this festival second only to the new year's festival, just because of the word "reunion".His family was ruined, and he was alone. The Mid-Autumn Festival would only add to the desolation, but now, it is different from the past.

When we arrived at the courtyard, it was already dark, but there was a bright red light in the courtyard.Startled, Jiang Bin quickly opened the door and entered, only to see two people standing in the courtyard.

The fire phoenix hovered in the sky, its eyes fixed on Wu Jie who was confronting Yinghuo Xingjun, but fortunately no one noticed the little ghost hiding behind the locust tree.

Wu Jie, who was standing with his hands behind his back, smiled when he saw Jiang Bin: "What? Master Huode wants to destroy my inner alchemy in front of him?"

Ying Huo Xingjun glanced at Jiang Bin, the Yingying fire in his hand gradually went out, but his eyes were full of killing intent.

He only remembered that today is the Mid-Autumn Festival when he was in Tiangong. Originally, he thought that Jiang Bin's place was deserted, so he came here to have a look, but he didn't expect someone to be one step ahead of him.Jiang Binke never said that Wu Jie is also a frequent visitor here.It is already clear at a glance who is favoring and who is hiding, as if he, Yinghuo Xingjun, is the insignificant and uninvited outsider.

Seeing Jiang Bin just standing there quietly, Yinghuo Xingjun felt that the fire in his heart was getting hotter and hotter. With a flick of his sleeve, he summoned Huofeng and left angrily.

Jiang Bin watched the eye-catching tail feathers sweeping across the sky like a comet, and then he breathed a sigh of relief, walked around behind the tree in a few steps, and hugged the little ghost out.

The little ghost was unharmed, but his body was cold and his face was a little depressed.Wu Jie had also come over at this time, and when the kid saw him, he broke free from Jiang Bin's embrace, spit out a shiny bead from his mouth, and held it with both hands.

But Wu Jie shook his head and said: "This is a water-proof bead gifted by King Ning to Mr. Jiang. It can not only avoid water, but also hide the breath. It was lost after several times of ups and downs. A few days ago, I revisited the old place of King Ning and found it by chance. I bought one, and I want to use today’s property to return it to its original owner. How could it happen that you escaped this catastrophe.”

When Jiang Bin heard this, he realized that it was this bead that really saved the little ghost's life, so he bowed deeply to Wu Jie and said, "Thank you, Shangxian."

Wu Jie stopped Jiang Bin's politeness with a smile: "Don't be too busy thanking, there are still things."

Jiang Bin took it, and when he saw it, small silver bells were hanging on a section of red thread, like a bunch of lilies of the valley, very lovely.

"This celestial sound bell has never moved. If there are some people who are close to it, it will make a ringing sound."

Jiang Bin glanced at the little ghost, and accepted it gratefully: "Shangxian already knew that there is such a child hidden here?"

"Rather than knowing that he is here, it is better to know that he will come sooner or later. These are all debts you owed in previous lives, and you can't remember them. If you don't want to pay back, you won't pay it back. Clear." Wu Jie said as he took out a piece of mooncake from Jiang Bin's arms, chewing it with relish, "I didn't come here to see you, but I made a lot of trouble for you, so I'm going back now, be careful yourself!"

Jiang Bin sent Wu Jie off respectfully, but when he came back, he saw the kid sitting in front of the stone table in a daze.On the small face like a powder ball, a pair of peach blossom eyes seemed to be covered with a layer of water mist, and the eyelashes trembled slightly, casting a shadow, as if infinitely worried.

Jiang Bin picked up the little ghost and combed the little ghost's soft hair with his fingers: "What's the matter? Are you scared?"

The little ghost just buried his head in Jiang Bin's arms and kept silent. Jiang Bin took him as his acquiescence, and carried him back to his room to sleep after washing up.

While sleeping in a daze, Bin felt the little thing in his arms move a little. Jiang Bin has always been a light sleeper, so he woke up now, but he didn't open his eyes, wanting to see what the kid was going to do.Seeing that Jiang Bin didn't notice, the little ghost squirmed cautiously in his arms.Like a diligent snail, he wriggled for a long time before he climbed to the level of Jiang Binneng's eye level, approached cautiously, gave a smack on his lips, and then quickly retracted into the bed.

This too hasty kiss made her feel extremely guilty.Jiang Bin almost laughed out loud, he just felt that the little devil was so cute, and he didn't think about it elsewhere, thinking, the unhappy look on his face must be due to jealousy?In the eyes of the little devil, Ying Huo Xingjun is probably here to rob him, right?

Jiang Bin slept very soundly that night, but was woken up by a hairy head the next day. He was waited on to wash up sleepily, and then he was pulled to sit at the table, where a bowl of porridge was placed , a plate of Wufang Douchi, a plate of fresh peppers, and a bowl of Lu'an tea.Jiang Bin finally woke up after smelling the fragrance. He was stunned for a while, then touched the little devil's head with anticipation: "You did it?"

The little ghost nodded. Although he didn't eat fireworks, he always watched Jiang Bin cook, and he learned it over time.

Jiang Bin swept the whole table prepared by the kid into his stomach, and felt warm and comfortable.Turning his head to look, the little ghost was sitting obediently with Wangwei wagging his tail and looking at him, he thought it was funny, and couldn't help hugging the little ghost again for a while.

The little ghost and Jiang Bin packed up the dishes together, but when Jiang Bin was ready to go out, he stood in front of Jiang Bin.He first conjured up the string of fairy bells, tied them around his waist carefully, then swallowed the water-proof beads in one gulp, and looked at Jiang Bin with big watery eyes.

It was only then that Jiang Bin understood the imp's intentions. He had a short mouth to eat people, so he had to wear this little tail!

On weekdays, Jiang Bin doesn't let the little ghost out of the house, not because he thinks it is bad luck for him to follow, but because this is a place where Buddha and Taoism prosper, he is afraid that something will happen to him when he goes out.Now that he has the two treasures given by Wu Jie, it is more reassuring to bring him by his side, lest he run into that eccentric Yinghuo Xingjun one day, and something will happen.

It was the first time for the little ghost to go to private school with Jiang Bin, and he was so happy that even though Jiang Bin was the only one who could see him, he still enjoyed it.When Jiang Bin was in class, he leaned against the window to see which children were distracted and dozed off. He grabbed a handful of pumpkin seeds and hit them one by one. The students were so scared that they thought they were haunted during the day, and they dared not slack off.

When the sun was setting, Jiang Bin took the little devil's hand home. Knowing that his hand was not warm, he still held it in his sleeve and held it in the palm of his hand, dragging a long shared shadow as he passed the village. , passing by the fish pond, passing by the forest where the two met for the first time, and then returning to the moonlit house.Even though I didn't say anything all the way because the little ghost yelled at the water drop, my heart was still warm, with the sweetness of sweet-scented osmanthus.

But the good times didn't last long, within two days, Lord Ying Huo Xing came again.This time, instead of letting Jiang Bin bring tea and water, he just sat aside, silently watching Jiang Bin, who ignored him, busy with his own affairs, and left sadly after the third watch.During such a two-day visit, it is natural to meet Wu Jie's family.Wu Jie had intentionally avoided him before, but when he found out that Ying Huo Xingjun said a few words and then saw him having a fit in front of Jiang Bin, he was very happy, so he waited shamelessly.

Ying Huo Xingjun, who wanted to be a "resentful husband" quietly, was very angry with Wu Jie, but he had nothing to do with him, so Wu Jie intensified, bringing some so-called Jiang Bin's "old friends" to disturb Qingjing from time to time.For example, last time, he brought Wu Ping'er and Zhang Jin's grandson, Zhang Duan, and last time, he brought Wang Xin's heir, Wang Qin.These two children seemed to be about the same age as Zhu Mengyu. At first Zhu Mengyu put on airs and refused to play with them, but after getting acquainted with them, he revealed his true nature and used Jiang Bin's courtyard as a place to have fun.

Jiang Bin is a teacher, so he likes children, so it's okay, it's just this trouble, but Yinghuo Xingjun, who wanted to be alone with Jiang Bin, really gritted his teeth and swallowed it, and was sometimes beaten A brat who kicked a few times and stumbled once did not have the slightest bit of virtuous status.

On this day, Wu Jie's family and their two bear children were enjoying the cool in Jiang Bin's courtyard as usual. Wu Jie was holding a handful of melon seeds and knocking them loudly. Feeling bored, he glanced at Yinghuo Xingjun who was standing coldly beside him: "Wenqu Xingjun!" Are you still awake?"

It really is a pot that cannot be opened without mentioning.

King Ning held the tea bowl and blew, his husband was more playful than anyone else.

Yinghuo Xingjun didn't respond, but his face became more and more livid.

"I heard that the heavenly court pardoned the original Lord Kaiyang, so that he can fill in the vacancy of Wuqu Xingjun, which is also the meaning of the immortal." He spat out the melon seeds and touched Wangwei's hair, "I heard that the immortal recruited him every day. Dedian, let him repeat the old things of the Zhengde period... It really is... oh... Unfortunately, he can't remember it."

As he spoke, he glanced at Jiang Bin who was leading the children to catch autumn insects.If Jiang Bin felt something, he turned his head and looked at the ugly Yinghuo Xingjun.Before he understood it, he saw him approaching in a few steps, grabbing his arm and lifting it up.

The courtyard fell silent for a moment, and even the hoarse chirping of autumn insects was frightened to silence.

Ying Huo Xingjun stared at Jiang Bin for a while, then suddenly took out something from his arms and stuffed it into Jiang Bin's hand.Jiang Bin only felt the tentacles were cold and heavy, and looked down under the moonlight, but saw a ferocious bronze ghost face.The ghost mask is of unknown origin, it is coated with a layer of paraffin wax, presumably the original owner etched it for fear of it being corroded, but the blood-stained spots on the inside of the ghost mask are shocking.

"Put it on." Yinghuo Xingjun held Jiang Bin's wrist tightly and ordered in a deep voice.

This is the old item of Wuqu Xingjun that Yinghuo Xingjun found after a lot of hard work. He was afraid that people would know, so he did it himself, but he hesitated when he got it.He missed the bitterness in the tea, and the obsession he saw through the scarlet jade ring, but he was afraid that Jiang Bin would remember everything through this ghostly face, so he still didn't choose him.

But this is the only way out, and it is also his last way out. He wants to take a gamble, regret a move, and regain the old dream that was shattered by his own hands.

Holding the ghostly face, Jiang Bin felt a familiar yet unfamiliar sourness welling up, gradually engulfing him.He vaguely guessed something, but it turned out to be mixed flavors, and even his limbs and bones were numb and cold from the cold of the bronze ghost face.

Several pairs of eyes just looked at him like this, looked at him, and watched how he acted.

During the stalemate, he suddenly heard a "bang", and when Jiang Bin came back to his senses, the ghost face had already hit his feet, rolled half a circle, and lay dying on the ground.Immediately afterwards, with a "poof", a shiny bead was spit out to the ground.

Under the watchful eyes of everyone, a small figure climbed onto Jiang Bin's slightly stiff body as skillfully as climbing a tree, hugged his waist, hung it on his chest, and then wrapped his arms around his neck, making a "paw" to his upper lip.
