If I add money to become a layman, I can cultivate immortality

Chapter 24 Master, you actually poisoned your disciple?
Dongchang's work efficiency is still very high. It only took one day to find out some details about Ding Xiu.

"Eunuch, this Ding Xiu is somewhat famous in the world. Some people call him the Jiaqian layman..."

Zhao Jingzhong was stunned: "More money for lay people?"

"Yes, father-in-law, it is said that this person is greedy."

"Insatiable?" Zhao Jingzhong was stunned, then smiled meaningfully: "This is an advantage."

"Also, this person is good at using knives, and the sword technique he uses seems to be Qi's sword."

"Qi Family Sword?" Zhao Jingzhong couldn't help but frowned: "Could it be that this kid used to be a frontier soldier? Then how did he sneak into the Jinyi Guards?"

"According to my little inquiring, I think he was connected to Mr. Lu from the Zuojun Governor's Office. He was first appointed as the seventh-rank governor, and soon he was transferred to Jinyiwei Xiaoqi."

Hearing this, Zhao Jingzhong couldn't help but snorted: "This Lu Hanzhong is very courageous, and I'm afraid he also accepted a lot of money."

His men made no sound.

This kind of thing has been commonplace for a long time. Isn’t it the same in Dongchang?Most of them are related households. As long as they are willing to spend money, the bandits can not only become rich, but also work as stalls.

"It seems that the governor has to talk to Lu Hanzhong in person."

In the afternoon, not long after Lu Hanzhong returned home, the housekeeper hurriedly came forward to report: "Sir, Eunuch Zhao of Dongchang is here."

"Eunuch Zhao?" Lu Hanzhong was stunned for a moment, then hurried out to greet him.

Nowadays, although Dongchang is far less majestic than before, it is still very powerful and has the power to supervise all officials. Naturally, Lu Hanzhong does not want to offend easily.

"Eunuch Zhao is here, and Lu is waiting to welcome you from afar!"

"Master Lu, you're welcome..."

After exchanging polite words, the two of them went to the front hall and sat down together.

After chatting for a while, Zhao Jingzhong suddenly asked: "Does Mr. Lu know a person named Ding Xiu?"

"Ding Xiu? Could it be that Eunuch Zhao is talking about the newly promoted general banner of Beizhen Fusi?"

"Yes, that's him! I heard that this man was a gangster in the past..."

Having said this, Zhao Jingzhong stopped and looked at Lu Hanzhong intently.

"Haha..." Lu Hanzhong couldn't help but smile: "Eunuch, the legends in the world are not trustworthy. This man is very skilled. He has killed many Japanese pirates and has done great service to the court.

After being introduced by someone before, I took him under his command as the capital minister, hoping that he could serve the imperial court.

Why did he commit something serious?Do you need to trouble your father-in-law to take action in person? "

"Master Lu, please be careful what you say..."

At this time, Lu Hanzhong couldn't help but express his face: "Lu doesn't know what the feud between father-in-law and Ding Zongqi is, and Lu doesn't want to get involved in this meaningless fight.

If the father-in-law wants to inquire about his details, Lu knows very little, so he should ask the father-in-law to find another expert. "

Upon hearing this, Zhao Jingzhong couldn't help but darken his face and said coldly: "Ding Xiu was promoted by Master Lu, are you not afraid of being implicated?"

This sentence clearly represents a naked threat.

In the past, Lu Hanzhong might have been a little scared, but now...

"Haha, what did your father-in-law say? Lu Mou has always been cautious and loyal in doing things for the court. But Lu Mou seems to have heard that your nephew was responsible for several murders in his hometown..."

As soon as these words came out, Zhao Jingzhong couldn't help but look shocked: "Master Lu, whose slander did you listen to?"

This is really not slander.

The reason why Zhao Dezhu came to the capital was to avoid the lawsuit and find Zhao Jingzhong to settle the matter.

"Is it true that the slanderous father-in-law is aware of it? What's more, if we really need to investigate carefully, some people around the father-in-law..."

At this point, Lu Hanzhong paused and stopped talking.

It is enough to just touch on some words, there is no need to go through them, so that both parties can have room for maneuver.

Lu Hanzhong is an old official, so how can he not understand the current situation?
The Chief Assistant personally went to Jinyiwei and promised to promote Ding Xiu and others to official positions in person. Who can't understand his intention to win over?
While rising strongly and declining at the same time, Lu Hanzhong has a clear idea of ​​where to go.

It would be best to avoid offending both sides, but as a last resort, he would definitely turn to Ding Xiu's side, and it was impossible to turn to Dongchang.

Zhao Jingzhong's forehead veins jumped with anger due to his hidden words.

However, he really didn't dare to do anything.

Now, the Donglin Party wants to uproot Dongchang and is looking for evidence everywhere.If they fall out with Lu Hanzhong at this juncture, it might become the trigger for a fight.

Therefore, I could only sneer a few times, then stand up and say: "Haha, okay, very good! Mr. Lu, Zhao is leaving!"

"Father-in-law, walk slowly!"

This time, Lu Hanzhong didn't even bother to give it away.

As soon as he turned his head, he called the housekeeper and whispered: "I went to find Mr. Ding Qi secretly and said..." After giving instructions for a while, the housekeeper left.

At first, Lu Hanzhong sent Ding Xiu away like a god of plague, thinking that he would never have to deal with him again in this life.

The result was a slap in the face. I never expected that one day, he would take the initiative to contact Ding Xiu.

No way, the situation forced it.

……

evening.

Ding Xiu returned home.

As soon as he entered the room, he couldn't help but rub his eyes, thinking that he was dreaming.

Ding Baiying actually wore an apron and took out a plate of dishes from the kitchen and put it on the table like a housewife.

And his tone was gentler than ever: "Xiu'er, are you hungry? Sit down and eat."

"Guru..."

Ding Xiu swallowed hard and subconsciously glanced at the dishes on the table.

Of course, there is no mention of color, flavor, shape, etc. It is just a few ordinary dishes.However, this still surprised Ding Xiu.

Master can actually cook?

Thinking together, I couldn't help but murmured: "Master, you don't stir-fry vegetables with a knife, do you?"

"Stinky boy, what are you talking about?"

Ding Xiu: "No..."

Ding Baiying gritted her teeth and glared: "Why don't you sit down and eat quickly?"

I was shocked, this was the familiar master, I thought someone was pretending to be me.

So Ding Xiu sat down with peace of mind, picked up the chopsticks...hesitated again, raised his head and smiled: "Master, sit down and eat too."

"Well, I'll go get the jar of wine."

Is the sun coming out in the west today?Master offered to drink with me. Could it be that he wanted to get drunk and then...

Some indescribable images appeared in Ding Xiu's mind.

no!Isn't this taking advantage of others' danger?
I, Ding Xiu, will never do such a treasonous act, deceiving my master and destroying my ancestors.

But what if the master...do you give it half-heartedly?Or half-assed?It's so nerve-wracking.

"What are you thinking about? Your saliva is almost dripping."

"Ah?" Ding Xiu came back to his senses, wiped the corners of his mouth quickly, and said with a serious face: "The main reason is that the food cooked by the master is so delicious that the disciples are salivating."

"Really?" Ding Baiying seemed to be smiling but not smiling: "Then eat more."

"Hmm, pour the wine, pour the wine. You must get drunk tonight."

While drinking and chatting, the atmosphere was harmonious.

"Cuckoo..."

Suddenly, Ding Xiu's stomach made an untimely sound and there was a dull pain.

I wanted to hold on for a while, and it would pass after a while, but unexpectedly it got louder and louder, and I almost couldn't hold it in anymore.

At this time, Ding Baiying said with a half-smile, "Are you feeling sick in your stomach?"

"Master, why do you..."

As soon as Ding Xiu said something, an idea suddenly flashed across his face, and his expression changed drastically.

"Master, you...you poisoned your disciple?"

Ding Baiying smiled: "It's not like poisoning, just a little laxative."

"you……"

Ding Xiu rushed to the latrine with his belly in his arms.

He finally understood that Ding Baiying must have been obsessed with the last competition and was waiting for an opportunity to take revenge.

If I can't beat you, why don't I give you some laxatives?

heh, woman...
