Notes on Evil Fox

"Brother Rong, Brother Rong, what's wrong with you?"

Rong Shiyin's slack eyes were finally clear, he looked at Ruyi and said, "What did you just say?"

Ruyi glanced helplessly at Rong Shiyin who had been distracted many times, lowered her head and continued to clean the wound on his arm.

Repeatedly: "Although the Xingyue Pavilion was built by people from the Jianghu, the original intention of the establishment was for your official career. Now there are only a hundred people in the pavilion, and most of them are mainly responsible for intelligence. Establishing a prestige in the DPRK and China is not very helpful, and even some things require you to take action yourself."

"En." Rong Shiyin nodded, indicating that he was listening.

"So should we train some more people now, first to expand the power of Xingyue Pavilion, and second, to arrange them in the imperial court in the future to help you deal with them." Ruyi carefully applied the medicine to the wound.

Rong Shiyin thought for a while, and said: "We can find some people to train. The power of Xingyue Pavilion really needs to be expanded. But let's not use it for the time being. I have too many eyes. And my position is unstable now, so I act rashly. It will only cause trouble."

"Yes, I didn't think carefully." Ruyi smiled, and tied a beautiful knot on the bandaged wound, "But, I can't bear to see you get hurt."

"You have done a good job." Rong Shiyin put down his sleeves and said, "You have been in Xingyue Pavilion for less than half a year, and you have to make medicine for me on weekdays, deal with various chores, and practice martial arts. Can you It’s actually not easy to do this. If you feel tired, you don’t have to do everything yourself.”

"Brother Rong..." The little girl's eyes were red, she wiped away her tears and said with a smile, "I'm not tired."

Rong Shiyin handed him a handkerchief as a sign of comfort, took out a pill from his bosom, and said, "Look at this."

Ruyi put the medicine under her nose and smelled it, then took a wooden hairpin from her hair, crushed the pill on the paper.After gently moving it a few times, he raised his head and said, "This medicine is supposed to be an extraordinary product, and the ingredients are precious, all of which are high-quality. If you take it for a long time, it will benefit Qi and blood. But..."

"How?" Rong Shiyin asked, seeing the clarity on the other party's face.

"But in this pill, there is a completely unnecessary medicinal material, the Bodhisattva in Western Xinjiang." Ruyi looked at Rong Shiyin, smiled and said, "The Bodhisattva is born in the deep desert of Western Xinjiang, and it is mainly used for cooking. And medicine. But this medicine also contains salvia miltiorrhiza, and when used together, it becomes a chronic poison. It will slowly consume the inside of a person until he becomes weak and weak."

"This Wang family is really bold. No wonder the emperor's health has deteriorated even though he has been nourished by precious medicinal materials. It turns out that this drug is causing trouble." Rong Shiyin sneered, "This Xu Jianghuai knows such secrets When I was in Xunan, I asked Guan Xing to poison his son. Before returning to Beijing, I took the opportunity to force him to resign. Now that this is the case, even if I don’t kill him tonight, the Wang family will not let him go .”

Ruyi didn't understand, but she believed in Rong Shiyin, so she just nodded.After a pause, he hesitated and said, "Did something happen to you today? You've been in a daze. And I always feel that something has changed after you came back from Xunan this time."

"It's just your overthinking, so nothing has changed." Although Rong Shiyin said this, he remembered in his heart that he saw Lu Fanan come out drunk from the Zuihua Pavilion today, and it was because seeing him in a daze that made Xu Jiang pregnant The dagger in his hand cut his arm.

Obviously just teased him in his arms just a moment ago, but in the blink of an eye, she went shopping again.Rong Shiyin felt a little more grievance in his heart that he didn't want to admit.

As if afraid of Ruyi asking again, he picked up the medicine on the paper and looked at it: "But this medicine, the hospital really can't detect it at all?"

Seeing that he didn't say anything, Ruyi didn't ask any more questions, and said with a little complacency: "This hairy bodhisattva is only born in the western Xinjiang. Put it in my witch doctor clan, there are many people who can't find anything unusual."

"Then you are one of the best in your clan." Rong Shiyin joked.

"Xitu and I, that is, the traitor, have always been trained as the next patriarch." Ruyi smiled bitterly, and Rong Shiyin didn't say much more, just stretched out his hand and patted her on the head.

But I was thinking in my heart, since this medicine was only born in Xijiang, and the people who made it are so proficient in it.I am afraid that the Wang family and Xijiang also have a lot of collusion.

At this time, there was a very regular knock on the door.Ruyi went to open the door, and let the person in sideways.

The visitor was dressed in black, saluted Rong Shiyin and took out an envelope, saying, "My lord, the news from the moon appreciation."

Rong Shiyin took it and looked at it for a long time before frowning and said: "This Lu Kun obviously knows everything, but he didn't fight back at all, and even deliberately left us a clue. The same is true for assassinating me earlier. What exactly does he want to do?"

Looking at the two people in front of him, Rong Shiyin said to the people: "Guanxing, tell Shangyue to keep staring at Lu Kun. There is also the matter of Xu Jianghuai being killed, let the Wang family know something. Remember, don't let other people notice .”

"Yes."

After Guanxing left, Rong Shiyin said in disgust: "Stargazing, moon appreciation, Xingyue Pavilion, tsk tsk tsk, this name..."

Ruyi couldn't help laughing out, "My lord doesn't like these names so much?"

"What do you think?"

……

It is still an unremarkable farmer's courtyard in the suburbs.

Compared with the last time when the room was full of people standing there, it seemed a lot more deserted this time.There was a round table in the middle of the room, with all kinds of wine and dishes on it, but including Rong Shiyin, there were no more than three people on the table.

Rong Shiyin sits at the top, and on the right is an old man with white hair and a young man. He was a doctor of imperial history at the time, his name was Kang Xun, and he was known for his integrity.Later, he was killed and imprisoned for impeaching Wang Baoyin.Except for Kang Xun, the whole family was exiled.

On the left is a middle-aged man who is described as somewhat wretched but shrewd in his eyes.This person's name is Zong Mingzheng, who was originally a student of Lu Kun, but was bought by the Wang family.It was discovered by Lu Kun later, so there was a case of collusion between officials from the DPRK and China that was not worthy of the name, which was later facilitated by Lu Kun.Not only did he remove the eyeliner around him, but he also severely damaged the Wang family, making it almost impossible to protect themselves.And because of this play, he gained both fame and fame.

This Zong Mingzheng was one of the officials who were sent to prison that time.

Rong Shi smiled and said to the two: "I hope you don't mind having a banquet with the two adults so late at night."

Kang Xun turned his head away coldly and did not answer.

"What are you talking about, my lord? Now that we are adults, we are naturally on call." Zong Mingzheng rolled his eyes between the two of them, and tentatively said with a smile, "I don't know if your lord summoned me this time. Is there anything to order?"

"I can't talk about orders," Rong Shiyin smiled lightly, "The main reason is to congratulate Mr. Zong."

"Give it to me?" Zong Mingzheng seemed to be aware of something, and said, "I'm stupid, how dare you ask your lord?"

Rong Shiyin beckoned to the attendant beside him, who understood and led Kang Xun to the side room.Only then did he say: "Now there is a way to make my lord re-enter the official career. Although it is risky, if you can seize this opportunity, it will be no problem to increase your official status in the future."

Zong Mingzheng's face was full of unstoppable joy, he stood up and gave Rong Shiyin a big gift, saying: "Zong will definitely go through fire and water for your lord."

Standing up and giving a little support, he said: "Master Zong is serious, please listen to me."

After some plotting, Rong Shiyin said, "My lord, are you willing?"

"How could I miss such a good opportunity." Zong Mingzheng said with a hint of hatred on his face, "I worked for them before the Wang family, but later when things came to light, they actually sent me with the Wang family in order not to be implicated. Picking it up clean will cause my wife and children to die. If my lord hadn't rescued me this time, I would have become an underground ghost."

Slowing down his tone, he said again: "Don't say that you will have to rely on your lord for your glory and wealth in the future. Just for revenge, I can't wait to eat his flesh and blood."

"Then thank you, my lord." He took out a small porcelain bottle from his bosom, and pointed out, "This is a one-month dose of antidote. At that time, I forced you to take the poison out of helplessness. But who knew this There is no solution to poison, it can only be suppressed. I hope you will understand."

"Yes, I understand."

After Zong Mingzheng went out, Rong Shiyin ordered someone to bring Kang Xun up again, and said, "Mr. Kang was upright all his life, but in the end he was framed by Wang Baoyin. But why can't you tell me about his crimes one by one? It's revenge for you, isn't it?"

"He is a beast, what good are you?" Kang Xun said angrily, "You rescued a total of more than a dozen people, but now only two are left. Is there no use value, or is it because they don't want to be with you? Kind of people? Aren't you afraid of retribution?"

"Your Excellency is really unwilling to cooperate?" Rong Shiyin didn't care about the other party's panic.

"I'm not that guy Zong Mingzheng, who is stalking and sycophanting. If you want to kill, you can take this life. Let me tell you? Who knows what dirty things you will do."

"What about this one?" Rong Shiyin asked with a smile on his face as he took out a longevity lock.

"You, what did you do to them?" Liang Xun said harshly.

"I've said it a long time ago. I've arranged them properly for your lord's family. Why are you so forgetful? But don't forget things that shouldn't be forgotten."

"You bastard, you will suffer retribution, and you must die badly."

"Come here, take Mr. Liang down to rest, and let me know when you think it over."

……

Returning to the mansion after leaving work this day, Rong Shiyin thought that he would not see Lu Fanan again for two days.I couldn't help wondering if he had been here, but he was not at home, so that the two of them missed it.

The more he thought about it, the more he felt it was possible. After all, he was busy with Liang Xiaoxian in the past two days sorting out Lu Kun's criminal evidence, and also paying attention to the movements of the Wang family, so there was very little time to spend at home.

Just as he was hesitating whether to ask Hu Zhong, he suddenly remembered the scene when he saw Lu Fanan coming out of Zuihua Pavilion that day.

As long as the brain starts to guess, the imaginary results are endless.

Rong Shiyin even felt that maybe that person was just a whim.After all, I was used to seeing all kinds of women, and suddenly I met a man who looked quite good, but was completely different from the people I had seen before.Sudden excitement, want to hunt for a surprise is also unknown.

Knowing that Lu Fan'an is not that kind of person, but there is still a pain in his heart.It even feels self-defeating, if that's the case, that's fine.At least Lu Fanan can feel less sad.

At this time, Rong Qiao pushed the door open and walked in, looking at Rong Shiyin's unfriendly eyes, he explained: "I saw no one answered the door, so I came in by myself."

"what's up?"

"You, you and Fan An," Rong Qiao hesitated, "you, you are..."

After all, there is still no question.

Looking at the other party's hesitation, Rong Shiyin guessed what he was going to ask, and sneered: "How do I and him have anything to do with you?"

Rong Qiao sighed: "Fan An is a good boy, but after all, he is a man. You guys really violate the rules and customs."

"I don't want to talk about this with you." Rong Shiyin issued the order to evict the guest, "I'm tired."

……

Zuo Xiangfu.

The good boy Lu Fanan, who had no idea that he was being talked about, was closing the bedroom door like a thief at this moment.Walking gently to the bed, hesitantly and excitedly took out a picture album from under the pillow.

It has been two days since he went to look for Rong Shiyin. Firstly, it was because of the frustration brought about by throwing himself into his arms that day, and secondly, what Xue Mingming gave him made him feel guilty.Although it has not been put into actual action, it is inexplicably guilty.

I haven't seen him for two days, and I miss Rong Shiyin more and more in my heart.Suddenly, he remembered the album that had been kept under the pillow.
