son-in-law

Chapter 442
The empress dowager's forehead was covered with a wet handkerchief, but her face was flushed, and her brows were tightly furrowed, showing anxiety.

After talking with Cao Sheng once, Cao Yuhan felt complicated.When she heard that Queen Mother Chen's neck was broken because she wanted to monopolize the military power, she also felt that her neck was chilly.

"No wonder Empress Dowager Chen passed away suddenly, and I think she seems to have a premonition..."

Lifting the silk kerchief off his forehead, Cao Yuzan wanted to sit up, but suddenly grinned, feeling the pain underneath, and couldn't help complaining.

"Why is it still not good?"

Cao Xiaobao had just put the little emperor to sleep, when he saw the queen mother in pain, he walked over quickly, and said with a frowning face, "Didn't Princess Ling'er ask the empress to hold the soul-inducing flag and lead Kun Dao around the imperial city road three times? Shall we try it?"

"Tang Linger is also a little witch, don't listen to her nonsense. What's the use of that?"

"Your Majesty..." Cao Xiaobao burst into tears: "Xiaobao feels very uncomfortable seeing her suffer. Xiaobao begs her, please listen to her advice. Let's go around three times, if it doesn't work, it won't work. Once it works, wouldn’t it be all right?”

Seeing Cao Xiaobao crying pitifully, Cao Yuzan smiled noncommittally: "Okay, then let's try it. But where can I find Kun Dao? Oh, I heard Yuchai say that there is a Qi Dao in Qinghuafang The mother-in-law is quite famous. Then tell Linger to attract Qi Daopo."

Cao Xiaobao smiled, and trotted off to do some errands.

Not long after, Cao Xiaobao came to Chang'an County Lord's Mansion, and Tang Ling'er had to wait for a long time before returning from the construction site. After returning, the princess had to take a bath and change clothes. After three quarters of an hour, she began to put on makeup again.

"Hey, my princess, can you hurry up? The empress is still waiting in the palace." Cao Xiaobao urged in a low voice.

"I have already sent someone to inform the old lady. The old lady said that she will take two young disciples with her. I think she will be here soon."

"Hearing what the princess said, it turns out that this trick was done by Daopo? It seems that the princess is usually very concerned about the queen mother, and even took the initiative to ask Daopo to pray for the queen mother. Our family must tell the empress about this. "

Cao Xiaobao took the initiative to give the favor, but Tang Ling'er didn't appreciate it: "It's not the Taoist woman, it's the county horse who told me."

"What did the stranger say?"

"Correct."

Cao Xiaobao was speechless for a while.As the other princess, he happily accepts all the free favors, and even sends some gifts to Cao Xiaobao.But the powerful princess ignored him.

Without goingssip, Qi Daopo took two fairy-like little Taoist nuns and accompanied the Queen Mother on the horse path between the imperial city and the harem three times.The Empress Dowager was really holding a small piece of soul-calling flag in her hand. Due to the pain in her lower body, she took short rests from time to time, and her forehead was slightly sweaty.

It was obviously not Qi Daopo's original intention to make the Queen Mother waste her energy walking around, but Qi Daopo would not tear down Tang Linger's platform either.The Taoist woman was wearing a fairy robe, chanting spells along the way, waving the mahogany sword in her hand from time to time, stabbing and slashing on the horse path.It was as if she was wrestling with some monster or ghost.

Dao Po suddenly screamed, and the atmosphere suddenly became tense. Seeing her twisted figure and messy swordsmanship, she seemed to have encountered some formidable opponent.She called everyone to protect the queen mother, and she lit the Taoist talisman, took a mouthful of divine water and sprayed it at the mahogany sword.Immediately, he swung the Taoist talisman, shouted fiercely, and slashed forward, seeing red blood stains on the mahogany sword.Bloody, dripping down. (Note: chemical reaction only.)
The Queen Mother was shocked.

Qi Daopo immediately said: "Your Majesty, the evil spirits are attacking you, and they have been beheaded by the poor!"

The queen mother was so shocked that she was covered in cold sweat and hid back in the palace and never came out again.But after such a toss, I really feel much more comfortable on my body.A lot of pus flowed out from below, but blood was also seen, and it was numb and itchy.This is indeed a sign of improvement.The queen mother was overjoyed and rewarded Dao Po.

The queen mother saw that a little Taoist girl behind the Taoist woman was very handsome and quite noble, so she knew that she was not an ordinary girl, so she couldn't help asking: "Whose daughter is this? Not only is she good-looking, but she also knows the rules of the palace. "

Qi Daopo said: "Fairy Qingya, a disciple of the sect, whose real name is Ouyang Xiaoqiao, and whose father is Ouyang Jing, the eunuch of the Eastern Palace. She learned the rules in the palace with her father, and even served the former prince for more than two months."

The Queen Mother smiled and said: "No wonder. Since she and the Dao Po practice Taoism and know the rules, it is better to keep her with Ai's family. I wonder if Po will let her go?"

"Hey, if the empress is willing to take it in, it will be a blessing she has cultivated in eight lifetimes. It's too late to congratulate me, how dare I obstruct it."

At this time, Xiao Qiao saluted and said: "It is a great honor and joy for Xiao Qiao to be favored by the Queen Mother. It's just that my father has promised Xiao Qiao to An Guogong as a concubine, and he will go through the door when the Duke returns."

"Oh?" The queen mother looked at Miss Xiao Qiao again: "You still have this good marriage? Oh, Tang Zhen hasn't come back yet, you stay with me during this time. When the Duke returns to the court, I will not delay Your marriage. If you behave well, the Ai family will give you some dowry."

Su Yu went to check the tax again.

Su Yu planned to check the small places first, grasp the clues and follow the clues to search upwards, and finally check the household department.If the evidence is found, they will be arrested, and then those cases will be handed over to Mei Hongshan for handling, and Mei Hongshan will be asked to report to the Queen Mother herself.Knowing that Mei Hongshan was not the case trial material, Su Yu invited a retired teacher from Dali Temple to help her.In addition to adjudicating cases, he also wrote notes for Mei Hongshan.

The cost of asking the master can be paid for by just grabbing a corrupt official and beating him up. Mei Hongshan can still understand this.

Su Yu returned to Jingtong, chatted with Hong Dun and Du Xiangui, met the two debriefing station masters, and went home.

As soon as I got home, I saw Ouyang mirroring like a big monkey bouncing towards him.This guy usually looks like a dog, and he looks quite elegant, but when he came in front of Su Yu, he showed his original shape.Going to Su Yu's couch, he flew his shoes far away, and called Xiao Huan to pinch his legs.Xiao Huan ran away in anger again.

Ouyang Jing said that his daughter was called into the palace by the Queen Mother to live with her.The Queen Mother liked Xiao Qiao very much, and she was reluctant to let her go.Usually, the troublesome things like taking care of the children are handed over to other court ladies and eunuchs, and the queen mother just dragged Xiao Qiao to eat and sleep together.It is said that Cao Xiaobao was jealous.

Ouyang Jing likes to brag, so he can only listen to half of what he has to say.But it is undeniable that Xiao Qiao is really cute, and Su Yu also believes that the Queen Mother will like Xiao Qiao.But eating and sleeping together is a bit too much, Su Yu doesn't quite believe it.

Ouyang Jing lay on the couch grabbing raisins to eat, chewing and said: "Although the queen mother likes our girl, I can't let her stay there. It's dangerous to work in the palace. Especially that Cao Xiaobao, if my daughter is favored and let him If you are jealous, then you will be in big trouble. I have already told Cao Xiaobao that my girl will leave the palace soon because she is going to marry the Duke. Cao Xiaobao just said something to me. Otherwise he would have Just ignore me."

Ouyang Jing sat up suddenly: "That little eunuch is very mean-spirited and has a small belly, Jin Feng, don't offend him."

"Yeah." Su Yu was practicing slow sword in the room, and suddenly turned on the light to watch the sword.

"Hey, Jinfeng, have you heard of Maodun? Maodun Shanyu."

Su Yu put the sword back into the scabbard and hung it on the wall: "I've heard a little about the guy who kills his wife and trains soldiers. He trains a cavalry and archery guard. As long as he shoots arrows, those people will shoot with him. The damage is extremely powerful , especially when he launched a surprise attack, it was hard to guard against. Later, during a hunt, he killed his father."

Ouyang Jing lowered his voice: "According to Cao Xiaobao, the Empress Dowager wanted Li Wantang to prepare such a team, but the old eunuch didn't know the current affairs, so he refused to agree. Alas, Jin Feng, what do you think if I help the Empress Dowager train a team?" With such a team, will the Queen Mother look at me highly?"

"You..." Su Yu stared at Ouyang Jing coldly.

Ouyang Jing shook his sleeves and stood up: "Then Cao Xiaobao took a lot of money from me, but he didn't do anything. He wanted more from me. I figured it out. This kid is a bottomless pit. I decided to directly serve the Queen Mother." Let the Empress Dowager see me! Just in time for Xiao Qiao to enter the palace, this is a god-sent opportunity."

He smiled, and said again: "Before, I expected you to help me find the Queen Mother, but I know you can't do this for me."

"I have convinced you." Su Yu patted Ouyang Jing on the shoulder: "If you don't kill yourself, I think you can't stop. The Queen Mother wants to form such a team, do you know who she is targeting? "

"Of course I know, whoever is in the way will be targeted."

"Zhao Ting, do you dare to kill him?"

"Hmph!" Ouyang Jing shook his arms: "Jinfeng, you underestimate me too much. I, Ouyang Jing, have practiced martial arts since I was a child, and I am very accurate in archery. Money can turn ghosts around. As long as I spend money, I will They are not afraid that they will not be able to recruit dead soldiers. What's more, if they succeed, they will have a better future."

Su Yu stared at Ouyang Jing: "Kill Zhao Ting, do you think you'll be fine? Do you think Zhang Yunlong can let you go?"

"Then settle Zhang Yunlong again!"

"Okay! Very good!" Su Yu applauded, put down his hands and said, "After reading and asking the medical officer, I'm sure you're crazy. You go, hurry up."

Su Yu stretched out his hand to push, and Ouyang Jing said with a playful smile: "Oh, Jinfeng, don't make trouble, don't make trouble! You look at you, why are you so impatient when you talk? Didn't I just tell you, and I didn't say to take you Go? What does it matter to you who I want to kill? You didn’t help me! What’s the matter, you won’t even let me talk now?”

Ouyang Jing sighed, and sat down in the chair: "Now, let me just talk to you. Who else in the world can chat with me?"

A trace of loneliness appeared on Ouyang Jing's face, and he stood up suddenly, waving his arms, and said with pride, "Let me sleep with the Queen Mother once, and death is worth it!"

After all, walk away.

Ouyang Jing left, Su Yu sat in the room thinking more and more angry.

"Is he a lunatic! He is a lunatic!"

Just after cursing a few words, Tong Yu ran in to report that someone had come to the palace.

Su Yu rushed to Xiaofeng Pavilion and saw the eunuch, who was still holding the appointment letter in his hand.

The queen mother said that she discussed with the five generals and agreed to transfer the right to recruit troops from the eight passes of Luoyang to the Jingtong.And approved Su Yu's proposal to establish "Jingxingfang Xuanjia Military Officer Training School".Zhao Yafu directly served as Jijiu, appointed Su Yu as the executive principal, Lin Conghu from Zhang Yunlong's department as vice principal and chief instructor, Gong Yan from Zhao Ting's department as political officer and warehouse supervisor, and Liu Yun from Cao Sheng's department as financial supervisor.Xuanjia General Staff Gongsun Xiong has returned to Yunzhou and did not participate in the discussion.Due to the long distance, Gongsun Xiong said that unless a war broke out and troops were dispatched, there was no need to seek his opinion.In the future, the majority opinions of Zhang Yunlong, Zhao Ting, Cao Sheng, and Zhao Yafu will be able to represent his opinion.
