Reborn little girl

Chapter 71
Marquis Dingbian thought that the situation in the south of the Yangtze River is not clear now, the entanglement between salt merchants, water transportation and officials at all levels, coupled with the entanglement of power and manpower of the princes in Beijing, etc., made the situation very unclear. It's really impossible for Mei Darkqi to contact his old boss at will.

For this reason, he had no choice but to agree with the fourth prince to meet Zuo Dechang in person, and let the fourth prince arrange for a reliable person to contact Jimao alone, so that Jimao can work for the fourth prince in the long run. Hou Dingbian knew the reason why Jimao was willing to be alone I met the Fourth Prince because of his old boss!

Thinking of this, Marquis Dingbian didn't want to trouble his old brother any more, so he shook his head and said to his nephew: "I know what you think, but now you haven't mastered your kung fu, and when you do it in the future, the matter of Jiangnan will also have a clue." , I will personally take you to Jiangnan to look for him, but I can only ask him to remind you a little bit, don't think about the others, his martial art is not known to the outside world, and it is impossible for you to vote for him, but , His riding and archery is not bad, this is not considered martial arts, but he can teach it."

Hearing his uncle's words, Xu Moyang couldn't say whether he was disappointed or satisfied. In short, he could only be like this at the moment, so he listened carefully and saw that there was no movement outside, so he approached Dingbian Hou and whispered: "Uncle, has the matter been settled?" When he came in just now, I thought it was not going to work. He came to ask you to apologize, but I don’t understand. If it was done, why would he come out? It seems a little imprecise to act like this.”

Marquis Dingbian glared at Xu Moyang disapprovingly, and said: "This is not a place to talk. If you have anything to say, you can talk about it later. Don't worry. Since he agreed to come, he agreed. Tete came to me to say goodbye. Just to let me feel at ease, to show that he has no serious relationship with me, but he also let me know that the usual kindness will be eliminated, and we will only be brothers in the future."

Xu Moyang frowned when he heard the words "clear love and affection", and said coldly: "This man is so arrogant. Seeing how young he is, how can he be so rigid and serious about things? By the way, how old is he this year? What about his inner house?" , because we were in the way of uncle, but we didn't inquire at all." Xu Moyang hastily put aside his previous act of probing the family.

Hearing this, Dingbian Hou glanced at his nephew who was touching his nose uncomfortably, and said with a sneer, "Don't look at what you are doing. If you don’t offend people, you won’t be here today.”

"Ah, no way, we are still very strict in our affairs. No matter how powerful he is in martial arts, it is impossible for him to know that we are spying on him elsewhere. Uncle is really bluffing." Xu Moyang was a little dumbfounded when he heard this.

Marquis Dingbian, who doesn't want to bluff anyone, is unwilling to talk too much. He is a nephew who is aggressive, so he put aside this and said: "Actually, it's nothing surprising if you go to investigate. There is only one daughter in Jimao's Houzhai. Sisters and brothers are not around, and they haven't been in touch for so many years, probably he hasn't returned home for many years, he is already thirty-five this year, and he will not be confused in a few years, alas..." Probably thinking In the early years when the frontier killed the enemy, the spirit was high, and the Marquis of Dingbian sighed with emotion.

When Xu Moyang heard that Zuo Dechang was actually middle-aged, he was surprised and said: "What, this person is 35, he doesn't look like that, I thought he was at most the same as my uncle, 25, it turns out that he is better than my uncle He is nearly ten years older, but he only has one daughter in the back house, so why didn't he think about marrying another wife? How can he inherit the family business without a son." Because only the investigation of Zuo Dechang's nearly ten years away, So Xu Moyang doesn't know much about the inside story of the Zuo family.

After hearing this, Marquis Dingbian was taken aback, yes!Although he is not in a hurry to have a child, he still wants to get married, but the timing is wrong, after all, now is not the time to think about these things, there are too many things at hand, and foreign enemies are looking around, it is not good to worry too much.

Because of this, he was so anxious that he got a little angry, and even the one he liked that he wasn't too satisfied with before was relieved, as long as he settled down.Dingbianhou was very happy to know that his mother agreed, but it's a pity that the current situation does not allow him to easily pull the other party in. After all, people like them are not only related to each other, but also to the family. Fortunately, he There is no time, and the other party has no time. It will take some time to observe the filial piety. Let's talk about it after the filial piety is over.

After tidying up his mood, he glanced at his nephew, Dingbianhou sighed and said: "Back then, he got married in a hurry, and I didn't know much about it. I fully understand that Ji Mao's wife's natal family is not a cheap lamp, and I think this is one of the reasons why Ji Mao is unwilling to continue marrying."

"That's it, it's a pity. No matter how you say it, you can't even give up your heirs for some other insignificant person. Forget it, what to do with this, we don't have to worry about other people's family affairs. However, other things We don't care about it, but you must remember your nephew and me when it comes to practicing kung fu!" Xu Moyang hurriedly emphasized that he was afraid that his uncle would change his mind in the future.

Hou Dingbian didn't think it was funny to be made such a fuss by him. This kid was thinking about Jimao's kung fu. It's okay, he was also thinking of finding an expert to teach his nephew to ride and shoot. The title must be passed on to him, but if you want to accept the title safely, you can't do it if you don't have any military exploits. Therefore, this kid will definitely go to the battlefield in the future. He laughed and said, "You monkey boy..." Dingbianhou, who was about to laugh and scold his nephew, stopped short of his words.

Xu Moyang, who was waiting for his uncle to speak, saw that he suddenly stopped talking, so he looked at his uncle strangely, and then listened carefully, knowing that someone was coming, he turned his back when he was busy, and sat upright waiting for the person to come, but he passed With this matter, he became more and more determined to find a famous teacher to learn advanced kung fu, thinking that in the future he would be the first to detect someone approaching.

As expected, the nephew and uncle were not on the errand, and after a while, a little novice monk came to the side hall, and he clapped his hands together to salute Dingbianhou and Xu Moyang, and politely said: "Master Abbot, please." After speaking, he waited aside.

Seeing him, Marquis Dingbian and Xu Moyang breathed a sigh of relief, knowing that the fourth prince is really safe there, otherwise the master would not have sent his personal novice to invite him. Knowing that Master Abbot's time is precious, the two of them got up without asking any more questions. Politely followed the little novice monk to the Zen room of Master Abbot at the back of the main hall.

Zuo Dechang didn't care what happened to Marquis Dingbian here, and naturally he didn't know that someone had already planned his kungfu. As soon as he left the side hall, he walked all the way to the plum forest in the backyard. There was a path leading down the mountain, almost No one set foot there, walking there can hide people's eyes and ears, and of course he has to wait for Master Abbot there.

When Zuo Dechang was rushing towards Meilin with all his strength, he suddenly heard a trembling and sharp voice from behind a rock, "Is it done? But did you mix the medicinal powder into the tea she drank? You can see Did you drink it with her?"

If Zuo Dechang had heard this before, he wouldn't have paid attention to it, but now he didn't know what happened, his heart trembled, he quickly stabilized his steps, and lightly jumped behind the fruit tree to hide his figure.

"It's done. However, Pearl and Qi'er are always by Qiluo's side. I don't know if they can succeed. Mother Lu, what should I do?" Cao'er, the second-class girl in charge of the kitchen in the wife's courtyard, it is extremely simple for her to give Qi Luo a cup of tea or a bowl of soup with spices.

"This is a problem. Zhuzhu is easy to handle. The old lady can't leave her for a moment. As long as Qiluo is not in front of the old lady, it will be difficult for Zhuzhu to be with her again. It's just a little difficult to move. This girl today I don't know what's wrong, Ren Shi has become more honest, she is not as fun as in the mansion, if we don't transfer her, we will be in trouble, we shouldn't both of us..." The one called Mama Lu's wife was also embarrassed for a while.

Hearing this, Zuo Dechang subconsciously thought that the key to these two people must be the eldest girl from the Bai family who was wearing a touch of light yellow at the mountain gate, because the square handkerchief he picked up earlier had the word "Luo" on it. , although the character Luo is embedded in other characters, Zuo Dechang knew that this was the name of the eldest girl of the Bai family, the audible word 'Qi Luo', because at that time he didn't understand why there were so many characters. The word 'Luo' is so conspicuous, so it fits her name, which makes the embroidery so special, which makes sense.

Since someone wanted to harm her, Zuo Dechang felt that no matter it was for his master or for some other reason, he couldn't just sit idly by, so he became more patient and listened to the plans of the two who were separated by the rocks.

The two who spoke behind Shanshi didn't know that someone was eavesdropping on their conversation, and they were still thinking hard about countermeasures.

Seeing Lu's mother was embarrassed, she became more and more worried. After all, she is from the old lady's courtyard. If something happened to Qiluo, Pearl would definitely investigate. In this way, she would be in great danger of being exposed. Really, besides, she didn't have any grudges with Qi Luo, so she couldn't be beaten to death by the old lady before she became the second young master's aunt, right?

Thinking of this, Cao'er became timid. Thinking of the medicine that had already been administered, she became anxious, stared at Mama Lu and asked, "Mama Lu, let's not talk about other things. In the name of using means, but we have to blame, or forget it, we will think of other ways later, we can't shame the mansion because of this matter, and now we are in the monastery."

After hearing Cao'er's words, Mother Lu knew that she was right. Not only Niu Guogong's family but also monks from the monastery came to the plum forest to see the plum blossoms. It's really a bad thing, after all, if it's shameful and left outside, the masters will be furious and will definitely investigate, but this is an excellent opportunity, it would be a pity to give up.
