Chapter 226: The Protective Taoist and the Powerful Stone
The wife of Duke Chengguo became famous in one battle.
The noble ladies in the hall inexplicably developed a sense of familiarity with her and raised their glasses to her frequently.
"My sister-in-law is so great!" Jiang Qingzhi said with a smile while raising his glass.
"Your sister-in-law is powerful, but I'm afraid my life will be difficult." Zhu Xizhong didn't know what he was thinking about, and he couldn't help but hit his lower back with his backhand.
The prince glanced at Jiang Qingzhi and suddenly raised his glass, "Uncle."
Jiang Qingzhi raised his glass, somewhat surprised by his invitation.
"If you have time next year, you can come and visit me." The prince said and glanced at Emperor Jiajing.
There was a hint of relief in the Taoist's eyes.
My father still wants me to interact with my cousin.
But the prince was worried that Jiang Qingzhi would deliberately make things difficult for him.
Jiang Qingzhi sighed inwardly, then raised his head and drank.
it is good!
The prince was secretly delighted and raised his glass to congratulate Emperor Jiajing.
At this time, Zhu Bingchen and his son came back. Zhu Xizhong was surprised, "Why do they look like their parents have died?"
Zhu Bingchen glanced at Jiang Qingzhi and sneered, "Okay! Okay!"
What the hell!
You are so hostile for no reason!
Jiang was not used to his bad habits and glanced at him sideways, "Are you sick?"
"I am an elder of the royal family..."
"You have lived in vain for decades, and you are not as polite as these two young people." Jiang Qingzhi pointed at the two princes who came in.
But Zhu Bingchen let him go and looked at Prince Yu and the other man with complicated eyes.
Emperor Jiajing watched all this calmly. A eunuch came over, leaned over and whispered something to him.
Princess Yong'an came back and looked normal.
"This woman is not simple." Zhu Xizhong said: "The King of Jin often asks her to visit the capital. She is very good at dancing with long sleeves!"
"Let her dance as she pleases, but don't drag me into it, otherwise..." Jiang Qingzhi looked at Princess Yong'an, and just then, the woman smiled at her, so Jiang Qingzhi smiled back.
He smiled ferociously.
The banquet ended and everyone left.
A eunuch caught up with Jiang Qingzhi.
"His Majesty said that after the New Year, there will always be some demons and monsters causing trouble. We should hold our weapons firmly and not let down our guard."
What the hell!
Taoist priest, can't you speak seriously?
Jiang Qingzhi didn't know that this was already the Taoist's plain language. If it were Yan Song and others, they would just dismiss it with a sentence or a poem.
Guess at your own risk.
Not to mention Jiang Qingzhi going home to guess riddles, after the banquet, Prince Yu and the other two were called away.
Emperor Jiajing changed into a Taoist robe, sat on a cushion, and held a Taoist book in his hand.
"I have met my father."
Prince Yu and his two companions saluted.
"Are you two dissatisfied with Zhu Bingchen and his son?"
Taoist asked calmly.
Prince Yu and Prince Jing looked at each other, and both knew that the matter was exposed.
"Yes."
"Why?"
"That person is shameless."
"It's disgusting to take advantage of your age."
"he still……"
Emperor Jiajing snorted coldly. Seeing the two standing there with their hands folded and looking a little timid, he said, "As a prince, you act in a sneaky way. Who taught you to do that? Qingzhi?"
"No, it's... we will make our own decision."
The two princes knelt down.
Emperor Jiajing was the most filial. When Empress Dowager Jiang was alive, whenever there was a banquet in the palace, Emperor Jiajing always put his mother at the head of the table and never asked anyone else to serve her wine or food.
Today, the two princes ridiculed and mocked the clan elders, which can be regarded as unfilial.
Prince Yu glanced at Prince Jing and said: It’s all your bad idea, we’re done for now.
King Jing looked back at him and said: At most you will be scolded.
The two of them exchanged glares, and it was unknown how long it was before they realized something was wrong.
A pair of shoes in front of me.
Isn’t this my father’s foot?
The two looked up.
"If you want to keep someone at a distance, why do you have to resort to such shameful means?"
Emperor Jiajing said: "Just recite a few poems of your uncle in front of everyone. That person will be ashamed of himself and why would he bother to entangle with me?"
Ah!
It turns out that the emperor also agrees?
Prince Yu was overjoyed, "Father, but we are worried that the father and son are thick-skinned."
"Then it's not your business anymore."
"Whose business is that?"
"I!"
Once the protective Taoist priest opens fire, Zhu Bingchen will regret it to his heart's content.
Prince Yu said happily: "Thank you for your guidance, father."
The Taoist turned around and said, "Although what you two did today was just a minor evil, it cannot be tolerated. Come here."
"Your Majesty!" Huang Jin stepped forward.
"Ten sticks per person."
"Father!"
"Pull it down!"
The Taoist waved his hand.
The two princes were beaten with ten sticks and limped in to express their gratitude.
"Your Highnesses, please go back!" Huang Jin said, "His Majesty is practicing."
The two princes supported each other and left.
"Father is so cruel!"
"Ok!"
The two of them went back with their teeth grimaced in their mouths. No one comforted Prince Yu. When Concubine Lu Jing found out, she went to see him.
"Father is too cruel!" King Jing complained. This was the first time he was beaten.
"Stupid!" Concubine Lu poked his forehead with her jade finger. Seeing that he was still confused, she said, "Although you two had good intentions today, your methods were inferior. If someone uses this to cause trouble and ruin your reputation..."
King Jing was startled, "Father, what is this..."
"My child made a mistake, and as a father, I have punished him. If anyone dares to hold him accountable afterwards, don't blame Your Majesty for taking action!"
……
A child with a father is a treasure. Although Sun Chonglou has no father, he enjoys Fu Cheng's meticulous care every day.
As soon as he got up in the morning, Fucheng stuffed a piece of ginger into his mouth.
"It's spicy!" Sun Chonglou didn't want to eat it.
"Why don't you try spitting one out?" Fu Cheng stared, and seeing Sun Chonglou's flat mouth, he said softly, "A piece of ginger in the morning, and you don't need to take medicine all year round."
"Master, have you eaten?" Sun Chonglou asked.
This child is filial... Fucheng was delighted and stroked his non-existent beard, "I ate it. I ate two slices." "Then you also asked a doctor to check your waist last time."
Bah!
"Ow!"
The twenty-eighth year of Jiajing.
New Year's Day.
That is New Year's Day.
It started with a scream.
Jiang Qingzhi got up, took a bath, changed his clothes, and then went to the ancestral hall.
Ancestor worship today.
Jiang Qing burned incense and prayed in a low voice.
"farewell."
Then the red envelopes were distributed.
Jiang Qingzhi was sitting in the hall, and Fucheng came in first.
A red envelope.
Fucheng opened it and took a look, and saw that it was a coin.
There are words on it.
"Good luck and good fortune."
Fu Cheng felt warm in his heart, "Thank you, uncle."
We had a dinner together after giving out red envelopes.
After breakfast, Jiang Qingzhi went to attend the grand court meeting.
"Happy New Year!"
"Happy New Year!"
The neighbors in the alley bowed and greeted each other.
Jiang Qingzhi smiled and returned the gift.
When we got outside the imperial city, the situation was still the same.
It was not yet the hour, and the ministers were all gathered in groups of three or five outside the imperial city, either strolling or chatting.
The old dude must have drunk too much yesterday. He was burping and bragging to a few military heroes.
Jiang Qingzhi saw Qiu Luan, who was surrounded by a group of nobles and relatives. Coincidentally, perhaps sensing Jiang Qingzhi's gaze, Qiu Luan turned his head to look over.
"Here comes this fellow." Qiu Luan said, "The vanguard of the government army has been completely transformed. I'm just afraid that he won't agree later."
"To provoke him?" a noble relative laughed.
Qiu Luan nodded, "Jiang Qingzhi is weak..."
"I have a servant here who is extremely strong." A noble relative turned around and waved, calling a sturdy guard, "Qin Shuang, Zeng Libo Bison."
"Oh! He is a brave man." Qiu Luan's eyes lit up. "Looking for a chance to anger Jiang Qingzhi, his guards will definitely take action. Remember, no one should die on New Year's Day, but losing hands and feet is no problem."
"You are not good at swordsmanship, so avoid Mo Zhan. Dou Jialan is a woman, so it is difficult to attack her. That is... did you see the young man next to Jiang Qingzhi?"
Qiu Luan nodded his chin at Sun Chonglou, who was talking to Sun Bu Tong with great excitement, and said, "That man is called Sun Chonglou. If you are looking for an opportunity to clash with him, don't blame me for not reminding you. Once you succeed in striking, retreat quickly. Otherwise, Jiang Qingzhi will not hesitate to order his guards to attack together."
"Thank you for your advice, Lord Marquis." Qin Shuang's eyes showed a familiar light to Qiu Luan. He laughed and said, "I like ambitious people. Let them do it. If you want to go anywhere afterwards, just tell them."
The noble wanted to get closer to Qiu Luan, so he smiled and said, "Why don't you thank me, Lord?"
"Thank you, Lord Marquis!"
Qin Shuang saluted.
Afterwards, he made a circle and went around from the left side to the rear of Jiang Qingzhi and others.
He walked over in a hurry on purpose.
"Good!" When the nobles and relatives saw Qin Shuang's feet seemed to be on the wrong side and he bumped into Sun Chonglou, they couldn't help but cheer.
"Stone." But Sun Bu Tong was quick to pull Sun Chonglou and avoid Qin Shuang.
Qin Shuang decided to go all out and simply pretended to stumble and rushed over.
"He did it on purpose!" Sun Bu Tong is the most cunning... This is Jiang Qingzhi's evaluation
Hearing him say this, Sun Chonglou roared, "Get lost!"
Qin Shuang stopped pretending and shouted, "You were the one who started it first."
This is a case of putting the blame on someone else.
It is also an excuse for going to war.
Qin Shuang stretched out his hands that were strong enough to fight a wild bull, grabbed Sun Chonglou's shoulders, and exerted force violently.
Sun Chonglou ducked down and escaped from his control.
"Don't run!"
Qin Shuang stretched out his hand just for a feint, then lowered his shoulders.
This long-awaited blow would break several ribs if it hit someone.
"Good skills!" Qiu Luan also praised.
Sun Chonglou roared, lowered his shoulders, and rushed forward with all his strength.
Bang!
I saw a man flying into the air.
Then he fell down heavily.
Sun Chonglou patted the non-existent dust on his shoulders and said, "Master, this man has so little strength!"
Qin Shuang, who was trying hard to sit up, opened his mouth when he heard this.
puff!
A mouthful of blood spurted out.
"At least three to five ribs are broken. This man is disabled." said a nobleman.
Jiang Qingzhi walked over and said, "Marquis Xianning, nine out of ten places where gongs are beating are here, and they are talking about people like you."
"Chang Wei Bo." Qiu Luan said with a fake smile, "I heard that you have offended the scholars of the world. This is really cause for celebration!"
"Really?" Jiang Qingzhi laughed, "It's ridiculous for a sparrow to stand on a branch and laugh at an eagle soaring in the sky, which would offend God."
"Jiang Qingzhi..." Qiu Luan wanted to take action.
Jiang Qingzhi kicked first.
Qiu Luan dodged and was about to counterattack.
Mo Zhan suddenly appeared in front of him.
Hold the knife handle with your right hand and press the spring with your thumb.
bass!
The long knife extended out a little.
That cold gaze was fixed on Qiu Luan.
"Do you dare to use a knife here?" Qiu Luan's guard shouted.
Mo Zhan said coldly: "How about giving it a try?"
"Open the door." someone shouted.
"Mo Zhan!" Jiang Qingzhi called Mo Zhan back.
Qiu Luan narrowed his eyes, the sharpness in his eyes became more and more fierce, and he whispered: "If I don't suppress you, Jiang Qingzhi, how can I, Qiu Luan, get ahead? Boy, you have enemies all over the world now, like a drowned dog... This marquis likes to beat a drowned dog the most!"
Yan Song saw all of this and said to Cui Yuan, "Qiu Luan is a man worth using."
Cui Yuan nodded, "New Year, new atmosphere. Qiu Luan has planned something, and I think he will give Jiang Qingzhi a surprise."
Yan Song said calmly: "I am old, and no surprise can surprise me."
This is a hint to Cui Yuan that things should be done carefully.
"Don't worry, Prime Minister." Cui Yuan said.
Jiang Qingzhi was talking to Zhu Xizhong about the two families getting together later, and then they started arguing about which house to go to.
The grand court meeting of the 28th year of Jiajing began...
