Twilight Cloud Returns

Chapter 66 Official Court Meeting

In the spring of the fourth year of Apocalypse, there was a great funeral in the Xiangfu.

Rong Changkun finally failed to survive this spring.

Yun Chuxiu and Wu Qing went to offer condolences.

The servant of the Xiangfu came to announce: "Master, the young master is here."

As soon as Rong Pingju heard the word "Little Grandpa", murderous intent filled his eyes.

Zhao Darong supported his uncle who seemed to have aged ten years overnight, and said in a low voice: "Uncle, no. Now he is very popular, we have to slowly plan..."

"Please rest assured, I, Zhao Darong, will never let my cousin die in vain!"

Rong Pingju calmed down his emotions and said, "Let him in."

The little servant then sang: "The first-class Zhongyong Gong and Mr. Qing, the counselor in the family, pay tribute to you."

Zhao Darong didn't understand until now that the well-known counselor Qing Gongzi turned out to be the young monk who was almost belittled by him back then.

On weekdays, the young master kept this counselor very important.No matter who came to see or ask for advice, they all got a reply that the young master didn't see anyone.

He only thought that counselors have the stink of literati, but he didn't expect to be a charming girl in the golden house of Yunchuxiu.

Zhao Darong raised the corners of his lips. If he mentioned this to his uncle, wouldn't it be more true that Yun Chuxiu was charged with killing Rong Changkun?

Rong Pingju watched the murderer come here to condole in a false way, and the anger in his heart grew even stronger.

It is not too late for a gentleman to take revenge.

Even if he is a member of the royal family, he can kill all of them in his ordinary life!He will definitely pay for Yun Chuxiu's blood debt!

Yun Chuxiu felt the hatred from Rong Pingju, he couldn't explain it now, dozens of people stared at him nakedly that night, even though he never meant to harm Rong Changkun, Rong Changkun did suffer He is inextricably linked to the canine attack.The charge fell on him, and he couldn't justify it.

He turned around and said frankly to Rong Pingju, "My condolences to the Prime Minister."

Rong Pingju squeezed out a sentence through his teeth with difficulty: "Thank you, little grandpa, for your concern."

After the ceremony, the two came out of the dull and oppressive prime minister's mansion, Wuqing seemed very worried.

In this way, they and Rong Pingju's beam is completely tied.In the future, knowing that he is still in the court, it will be even more difficult.

Yun Chuxiu was always able to penetrate his mind in time, and said freely: "In this life, I always only want my heart to be bright and upright. The difficulties and obstacles around me come as I want, and I will be able to overcome them without fear."

Hearing this, Wuqing smiled knowingly—he is still the one who knows how to find joy even in adversity.

A few days after Rong Changkun's funeral, the people in the capital had long forgotten that there was a second generation ancestor who was tyrannical and disturbed the entire capital.

The hearts of the world are indeed so cold that a person's life or death is as insignificant as whether it is sunny or rainy today.The irony is that when it rains, you still have to remember to bring an oil-paper umbrella, and when a person dies, except for occasional mentions in words, as time goes by, he even forgets his name, and eventually turns into loess dust and sleeps in the ground completely. people trampled.

Three days later, the Baiguan court meeting was approaching.

The Hundred Officials Court Meeting, as the name suggests, is when the governors of the states of the Great Zhou came to Beijing to face the emperor and sum up the achievements of the state last year.In fact, these contents have already been stated in the memorial, but by taking this opportunity, the process of participating in the memorial can be eliminated directly, and there are many people who directly appeal to the impeachment of political opponents.Over time, the Hundred Officials Court Meeting became a time when there were many accidents in the court every year in the Great Zhou Dynasty-either they were promoted and stayed in the capital, or they were miserably demoted.

On this day, Yun Chuxiu and Wuqing were sitting in the room, they were playing chess.

Yun Chuxiu looked at the chess game, he was sure of winning, and holding the sunspots said: "This time because Rong Changkun died of illness, he returned to Beijing in a hurry, and he failed to fulfill the agreement with Wushuang to bring him to the capital. He must hate me for breaking his promise right now." My fairy brother!"

Wushuang didn't take it seriously, "Follow the expediency. When Wushuang grows up, she will understand."

Yun Chuxiu frowned, "Although this is the reason, it seems that my father-in-law is too incompetent to break his promise..." But the gloomy mood was only for a moment, and he suddenly remembered important things, and said: "Xue Lian said before I arrived in Beijing in two days, and now I live in the post."

Wuqing remembers Xue Liandao, the governor of Yangzhou.

He is not good at chess, Quan should accompany Zhi Huan, and said casually: "Why did you mention him?"

"The key point is his daughter. Xue Wanjun accompanied Xue Liandao to the capital. I heard that it was the Queen Mother's order."

Wuqing understands now, this is the drunkard's intention to drink!

He used white pieces to block the way for Zhihuan's black ones, and his jealousy was in full swing: "What? Back then, you rejected the Queen Mother's wish to grant a marriage, and now you regret it?"

Yun Chuxiu never expected this little Ah Qing to be so delicious, it was obvious that she cared about herself, Yun Chuxiu was overjoyed, and for a moment she got carried away, without carefully looking at the layout on the chessboard, the black piece fell into the white piece In the trap.

He replied sternly: "My father-in-law has such a lovely person like Mr. Qing who is so soft and can move, let alone Jun Wan, I don't want to give it to any king!"

Wuqing saw that his scars had healed and he forgot about the pain, and he dared to mention the nonsense he said before, with a soft snort, he picked up the surrounded Heizi.

It was only then that Yun Chuxiu noticed the chess game that had been slaughtered all over the place, and said regretfully, "It's my fault that I was fascinated by the beauty... But I'm willing to lose to you..."

Wuqing threw the sunspot he picked up on him, and the latter happened to catch it with a playful smile.

Wuqing said angrily: "If you continue to play tricks, you will not be able to win a game of chess in the future!"

Yun Chuxiu clasped his hands and said, "Ah Qing taught you the right thing, my husband will definitely remember it by heart!"

"You..." Wuqing gave up talking to him too much, a dog can't change eating shit, and Yun Zhi can't change his poor mouth.

Yun Chuxiu sneezed twice at the right time, and said aggrievedly, "Ah Qing, are you scolding me in your heart..."

Wu Qing glanced at him, and generously admitted: "Yes."

Yun Chuxiu shook her head helplessly, this man is hard to raise!

Suzaku Avenue.

"Miss, the capital is really lively!" Su Xin, Xue Wanjun's maid, looked at the dazzling array of shops and couldn't help admiring.

"Miss, Miss! Look, there are jugglers ahead!" Su Xin pulled Xue Wanjun and wanted to push forward.

Xue Wanjun stopped walking, with displeasure on her face, but she still said softly: "Su Xin, don't do this. We are new to the capital, and we are not familiar with the place. We must follow the teachings of my father, and go back after buying rouge and powder, and don't stay outside for a long time. .”

"Yes..." Su Xin lowered her eyes, a little disappointed.

Her family's young lady is dignified and generous, knowledgeable and courteous, beautiful and intelligent, in short, she is good at everything, but she has a dull temper!

"Miss, do you want to come here and have a look? The top-quality rouge gouache is freshly blended with crabapple juice. Ask me if it smells good or not?"

Xue Wanjun only loves Haitang, and the peddler really sold it into her heart by mistake.

The new begonia rouge was fresh and rich in fragrance, Xue Wanjun liked it very much, immediately took out the silver, wrapped the rouge in a handkerchief embroidered with begonia flowers, and put it in the sleeve.

The things that need to be purchased for this trip have been bought, she immediately said: "Su Xin, let's go back to the station..."

But when she looked back, the little girl Su Xin had disappeared.

"Suxin! Suxin!" Xue Wanjun looked for her anxiously, and saw Suxin leaning on a wooden pillar in a tea shop not far away, knocking on melon seeds and listening to Mr. Shu telling a story!

Xue Wanjun sighed helplessly, and wanted to approach her to call her away, but unexpectedly, the storyteller was telling the story of Young Master Yun.

I only heard Mr. Qian's eye-catching pat: "Thanks to everyone's love, I am waiting here for my old age. Let's continue the book and continue to talk about how the Great General Zhenyuan took down the Xiongnu and Yi tribe bandits in one fell swoop in Liangzhou, where the snow is falling thousands of miles away!"

"Good!" The idlers in the tea shop applauded immediately, cheering Mr. Qian on.

The famous general of Zhenyuan, Xue Wanjun, will never forget that it was this little prince who humiliated her in the harem, insinuating that she was not as good as a flower girl with a soft waist.

As long as Xue Wanjun recalled the days when she was in Yangzhou and was pointed at by people as soon as she stepped out of the house, her chest would ache.

Suxin never expected to change to a storyteller, so she would no longer tell the story of Lady Bai and Xu Xian, and insisted on talking about the villainous Mr. Yun!

Isn't this poking her young lady's heart!

Su Xin said angrily: "Miss, let's go back to the station and don't listen to what this bad old man said about the Great General Zhenyuan!"

The two were about to leave, and Mr. Qian attracted Xue Wanjun with his story of heroic killing the enemy with rich voice and emotion.

"In order to lure the enemy to go deep, the general used his body as bait and entered the desolate desert alone. The enemy army who had already ambushed here, wielding spears and big knives, slashed at the general cold-bloodedly and mercilessly!"

"In an instant, half of the desert was stained red with blood, and the battlefield where the horse skin shrouded corpses was truly appalling..."

Everyone gasped, and the tea shop fell into a tense silence for a while, all eagerly waiting for the next article.

Just listen to Mr. Qian's eye-catching shot again, deliberately whetting his appetite: "Predict what will happen next, and let's listen to the next chapter to break it down!"

"Alas..." Everyone waved their hands one after another, and reluctantly handed over the tea money, their expressions still unfinished...

Xue Wanjun left together with Su Xin after listening, the two of them were walking on the street, and they didn't realize that they had entered a dark and deserted alley.

Xue Wanjun half-believingly said: "Su Xin, do you think this young man is really as chivalrous as a storyteller?"

Su Xin bit her lip, she didn't know the truth at this time, "I guess it should be...otherwise he wouldn't have repelled the Huns..."

Talking about it, Su Xin felt that something was wrong, she shook her head again and said: "Anyway, it is true that he humiliated Miss. Even if he has all the abilities, he is not a good person if he has bad conduct."

Xue Wanjun nodded in agreement.

Suddenly, a man in black descended from the sky, blocking their way.

Su Xin screamed in fright on the spot, the man in black slashed the back of her neck, and Su Xin passed out on the ground.

Xue Wanjun looked down at the fainted Su Xin worriedly, while backing away fearfully, saying out of words: "You...you...what are you going to do..."

The man in black was very strange, he didn't want to make money, and he didn't want to show sex, he said: "Miss, I don't have any malicious intentions..."

A masked gangster, knocking her maid unconscious, and saying another word without malice.

When she, Xue Wanjun, was a three-year-old child?

I don't believe it!

Xue Wanjun immediately called for help, and the man in black panicked, subconsciously stepped forward and covered her mouth, not wanting to attract anyone.

Xue Wanjun came to his senses in a dangerous situation, bit his finger with his white teeth, and the man in black immediately let go of his hand in pain.

Seeing Xue Wanjun not cooperating, he said bluntly: "Miss, what an offense."

After saying that, he slashed at the back of her neck with his palm, Xue Wanjun lost consciousness instantly, and let her carry her away.

Cloud Palace.

At dusk, Yunying hurried to the palace.

He quietly came to the study and reported: "Young master, this subordinate has lived up to his entrustment and finally found out the Jiangnan officials who were in contact with Jingzhao Yinliangcai."

Yun Chuxiu put down the ancient book in his hand, and at the same time Wuqing was also curious, who is so bold and reckless?

Yun Ying paused, and said: "This person is now in Beijing, and he is a member of the Baiguan Chaohui. He is Xue Liandao, governor of Yangzhou."

As soon as the words fell to the ground, Gu Xiaorui rushed in in a hurry.

Yunying immediately found a place to hide, and Gu Xiaorui said out of breath, "My lord... the lord... something is wrong! The daughter of the governor of Yangzhou was robbed by gangsters!"

As soon as it was discovered that Xue Liandao had an affair with Liang Cai, it happened that his daughter was kidnapped by gangsters.

The corners of Yun Chuxiu's lips twitched slightly, and she said to Wuqing: "Things are really getting more and more interesting... I believe this meeting of officials will have an unexpected ending."
