[Qing Chuan + Red Mansion] Midas touch
Chapter 24
As the smartest cub in the family, Zuo Xi's thoughts are all on how to welcome the lame Taoist and the flicker Jiuye to contribute.
Last year, when the housekeeper was asked to inquire about the news in Beijing, Zuo Xi heard that there was an eleventh brother in the palace who was ill in bed all year round.
At the same time, I also know that Brother Jiu is very caring for this younger brother, and for him, he will not hesitate to seek medical advice from thousands of miles.After knowing the news, Zuo Xi guessed what happened to those three Lengxiang pills.But there was no more to this matter in the end, it should be that the Lengxiang pill had no effect on the illness of Eleven Elder Brother.
However, the eleven elder brothers in history should have died young, right?Ugh. Either way, this news can be borrowed.
→_→
Back in September last year, Zuo Xi found the big housekeeper and asked him to quietly find two fresh-faced and clever servants among Xue's servants as backup.After the Chinese New Year, Zuo Xi used her bloody soul washed in the modern age to pack the two servants into a debt-repaying boy.
In the spring of a certain year, Jia Rui's father accidentally helped a young couple in distress.For Jia Rui's father, this matter was just a matter of lifting a finger, but for the couple, it was a rebirth of kindness.Many years later, the couple had a dream at the same time, saying that it was the son of the benefactor, and the parents of the benefactor. Although they were poor people, they also had the temperament of repaying the favor.
The couple pondered all night and decided to send their son over to have a look.The dealers don't know anything else, but fortunately they still have a lot of strength.Side jobs may not help, but menial chores or errands are fine.So they sold a few acres of fertile land and the family's livestock, and after barely making up for the travel expenses, the couple hurriedly sent their two sons to the capital to visit Engong's family.
After searching all the way, I heard that the son of benefactor is really sick, so Dang even decided to stay.Dai Confucianism didn't want such a sincere person here, and saw that the two of them didn't look like the treacherous and evil, and he had nothing to do when he thought about his own family, so he kept the two of them.
The two and a half young men brought their own dry food and bedding, and when they arrived at Jia Dairu's house, they were able to carry water and firewood.For a while, it also helped Dairu's family a little.
And ever since the two of them entered the Confucianism, Jia Rui's news has been passed back to Lixiangyuan.
On this day, the old wife of Dai Confucianism finally came to Rongguo Mansion to seek counseling. After Zuo Xi got the news, he quickly called the housekeeper over to carry out the last item of the plan.
There is no other way for Zuo Xi, because the ancients all believed in things that science can't solve.So again, under the banner of Father Xue's Tuomeng, he asked the housekeeper to send a letter to Jiuye's mansion.
When Zuo Xi dealt with Xue Pan in the old year, he beat Xue Pan for the reason of Xue Pan's dream.At that time, the set had a strong mass base, and this time it was used again, and practice made perfect.
The butler knew about these old things, and he was extremely awed by these ghosts and gods.Now he went all the way to Jiuye's mansion, first he begged to see Qin Baliang at the gate of the mansion.It happened that Qin Baliang was in the mansion, and the butler arrived and met him smoothly.
"You are well, I have something to ask to see Lord Jiu, and please help my father-in-law." As soon as he saw Qin Baliang, the big butler leaned over to say something.
Qin Baliang raised his eyebrows, and looked at the butler with a half-smile.
Can Master Jiu see anyone?
Seeing him like this, the butler understood.
First he handed over a purse, then looked left and right, and then whispered in Qin Ba's ears, "It's my master who is worried about the family and entrusted our girl with a dream."
"Ah?" Qin Baliang, who was clutching his purse casually, paused for a moment, and looked at the butler with a very unfriendly expression of "you're kidding me".
"Elder-in-law, do you still remember the Lengxiang pills that our girls used to take at home? Now that the medicine is almost used up, the family has prepared the flowers and stamens two years ago, but I have never been able to find Lai who gave the medicine back then." The head monk. Our master missed the girl, and gave us a dream to point out the direction for our girl last winter. I don’t want the master to come back with a dream two days ago, "
Speaking of this, the big butler paused, with a look of anxiety on his face, "It's a long story, I'd like to ask my father-in-law to help introduce me, and ask the younger one to meet Master Jiu before we can talk about it."
When Qin Baliang heard this, he thought carefully about the impression that the Xue family's three mothers had given him.The girl from the Xue family does seem to be smarter than her brother, but no matter how smart she is, there is a limit.But the biggest advantage of this girl is that she knows current affairs and knows how to advance and retreat.
.Should not talk nonsense.
After thinking about it, Qin Baliang first sent a little eunuch who was running errands to see where Master Jiu was.After the little eunuch replied that Master Jiu was in the study, Qin Baliang took the housekeeper to the courtyard where Master Jiu's study was located.
After some briefings, the butler successfully met the ninth elder brother who only listened to his name but never saw him.
The royal relatives and nobles, the son of the favorite concubine, just sitting there is full of style.
Not to mention that Master Jiu looks like Concubine Yi.The appearance is one of the best among the brothers.Concubine Yi's appearance is naturally extraordinary to be favored, but when it comes to appearance, she must have eleven relatives, Guo Guiren.
If it weren't for the long-term national beauty and heavenly fragrance, which is unmatched by heaven and man, would he be able to marry a second time at an advanced age and still have a son and a daughter?
At this time, let's not mention Eleven, who is three points more beautiful than Jiuye with a face like a crown jade and picturesque eyebrows, just say that Jiuye is sitting in the room, sipping tea, and looking at the people who come in with great interest.
"Xue Da, the housekeeper of the Xue family, please greet Jiu Ye." The big housekeeper only glanced at Brother Jiu, then knelt down in the middle of the ground with a plop, and kowtowed three times without any hesitation.Then he straightened up and looked at the servants waiting in the room, then lowered his head and knelt motionless again.
Master Jiu glanced at Qin Baliang, and Qin Baliang waved directly to the servants who were waiting in the room, and waited for everyone to retreat, then Qin Baliang walked to Master Jiu's side and stood still.
This is to prevent the big housekeeper from assassinating.
Seeing this, the big butler didn't take Joe anymore, and directly recited the short story of Tuomeng that Zuo Xi had pondered over and over for a long time.
"...Our master said that the Laitou monk who delivered the medicine primer was on the same side as the lame Taoist who was going to deliver the magic weapon in a few days. They have the untold medicine primer, and they also have the life-saving medicine The master also said, let Jiu Ye know the truth about this matter, and ask Jiu Ye to make a decision. Besides, the servants are stupid, nothing else, don't act without authorization, and miss Jiu Ye's business." A big cart After Jilu finished speaking, the butler obediently stood aside.
Master Jiu lowered his eyes and remained silent, as if he was digesting the words of the butler, and also seemed to be looking for loopholes in these words.
Zuo Xi's ability to deceive people is still learned from the fortune teller near the square. Now when he uses it to deceive Master Jiu, because the butler has no doubts about Zuo Xi's belief, the words he relayed sound like More real.
This is the same as some liars in modern times. They deceive the honest people first, and after the honest people are deceived, the honest people deceive the smart people.Smart people seldom set up defenses against honest people. If they come and go again, they will achieve the effect that the liar wants.
This is the case at this time.
Ever since the big butler started talking, Master Jiu has been sizing up the big butler quietly.So no matter how unbelievable and unrealistic these words were, Master Jiu believed in his own eyes, and Xue Da in front of him did not lie to him.
So the shrewd Master Jiu stepped into the hole dug by Zuo Xi.
"Is it because you girls mean you came here?"
The butler nodded, "Master told the girl in a dream that the matter is of great importance and should not be complicated. Therefore, neither my grandma nor the uncle knew about it."
Hearing the words, Master Jiu slightly turned his head in Qin Baliang's direction, Qin Baliang immediately stepped forward, and whispered his impression of Zuo Xi and some things Zuo Xi had done to Master Jiu.
Not stupid, but definitely not smart either.
However, there is still a bit of ingenuity in knowing that there is a retreat for the family to buy the sacrifice land, and that the deeds and land deeds of all the shops are properly collected.
"What does your girl want?"
"The girl is going to participate in the small election. If she doesn't keep it all, she will stay in the palace as an servant and serve the master. It is not a long-term thing to rely on Lengxiang pills to suppress heat poison. Our girls don't have many Lengxiang pills. There is nowhere to buy it. Fortunately, there are several shops at home. If you can figure out the origin and usage of this medicine introduction, it will benefit yourself, and at the same time take care of your family’s business.”
As soon as Master Jiu heard this, he almost understood what Zuo Xi wanted, but he still asked the butler with a playful smile, "What about your master, what does he want?"
"This... the girl didn't say anything, presumably the master didn't explain it either."
"You really didn't say that?"
"I dare not lie to Master Jiu, I really didn't say anything."
"That's all." Jiu Ye stood up, and looked down at the big housekeeper: "Go back and tell your girl, I'm in charge of this matter, tell her to wait for the letter."
"Yes, little one wrote it down."
After the big housekeeper was taken out by the little eunuch, Qin Baliang went up to Master Jiu and asked him softly, "Master, you, uh, do you believe this?"
"As long as we can really block people and get the medicine to cure the eleventh, it doesn't matter if you trust them once." He walked towards the book case, and told Qin Baliang, "Go and arrange it."
"twitter-"
……
Since the housekeeper came back from Jiuye Mansion, Zuo Xi counted the days and looked forward to the day when the lame Taoist would appear.
That day came very suddenly, and Zuo Xi didn't know how fierce the battle was until he heard about it from the servant who was sent there afterwards.
In order to keep the crippled Taoist, Qin Baliang first invited Wen, and then Wu invited him. Seeing that he still couldn't move him, he didn't have time to react. He retreated with a sneer and issued an arrest order.
If you dare not give Jiuye face, see if your Grandpa Qin doesn't peel off your inner lining.
"Come here, wait~"
The black dog splashed blood on the front, the boy pissed on the back, and even poured two basins of footwashing water on the lame Taoist's lame feet.After a bit of flirting, there are also guards from the palace of the royal family, reckless rivers and lakes, Tibetan lamas, the old Taoist who is pure and empty, and the horseman who goes down the five elements... In short, the Eight Immortals cross the sea, each according to their own abilities, and finally set up a net to capture this toast alive Don't eat, only eat the lame Taoist who was fined with wine.
The lame Taoist yelled 'Oops' in his heart, cursed "The eunuch killed me", turned around and ran away.It's a pity that the mantis caught the cicada and the oriole followed, and finally became a turtle in the urn, and was captured alive by being splashed with filth.
When the lame Taoist was tied up and pressed to the ground, Qin Baliang covered his mouth and nose with a handkerchief, stepped forward with a look of disgust, spat at the lame Taoist, and cursed: "You idiot who doesn't know how to praise." Dare to call grandpa an eunuch.
During the fight, Qin Baliang realized that the lame Taoist was quite capable, and worried that he would not be able to be locked up nearby, so he deliberately borrowed the prison cell of the yamen, and planned to lock the crippled Taoist in first.I didn't want to drag him to the vicinity of the yamen, but a monk who wanted to rob him appeared.
Originally, the things were prepared for him, but just now he was thinking about how to interrogate the lame Taoist to find out the whereabouts of Lai Tou monk, so that they can be arrested in one fell swoop.I didn't want him to deliver it to the door by himself.
What else is there to say, let's move on.
Although the sudden appearance of monk Lai Tou caught everyone by surprise and almost caused the lame Taoist to escape.But in the end, both of them were pierced with pipa bones, and they were locked in the Yamen Prison, waiting for Jiuye to summon them.
Something happened here, so Qin Baliang took the Fengyue Baojian and other things found from the lame Taoist and Laitou monk back to the manor to meet Jiuye.And their Jiuye Mansion spent a lot of time to arrest the two monks and Taoists today, and everyone in the capital who is well-informed also got the letter.
……
Finally got it.
Hearing that the pair of monks and Taoists were captured by Jiu Ye's men, Zuo Xi could not help but breathe a sigh of relief.As a woman, even if she never had medicine primers to make Lengxiang pills in her life, she didn't want these two people to use Fengyue Baojian to bluff and deceive.
Withdrawing his mind, Zuo Xi raised his voice and told Ying'er: "Go and ask Miss Lin to come over."
Last year, when the housekeeper was asked to inquire about the news in Beijing, Zuo Xi heard that there was an eleventh brother in the palace who was ill in bed all year round.
At the same time, I also know that Brother Jiu is very caring for this younger brother, and for him, he will not hesitate to seek medical advice from thousands of miles.After knowing the news, Zuo Xi guessed what happened to those three Lengxiang pills.But there was no more to this matter in the end, it should be that the Lengxiang pill had no effect on the illness of Eleven Elder Brother.
