Chapter 354 Chapter 354: Shen·Whetstone·Tang 【Two in One】
"Mama, is there something wrong?"
Even though he was drunk, Gong Xiqiu still paid attention to the expression of his bosom friend. He was puzzled to see Shen Tang's face flexibly switching between white, blue and black.
_(:з)∠)_
Could it be that he accidentally offended someone again?
Gong Xiqiu sipped his wine.
Prepare to draft an apology draft in mind.
Don't ask why he is so proficient and unresisting, it is a passive skill that cubs from matrilineal clans are born with.
Because Gong Xiqiu was pretty when he was young, and showed outstanding singing and dancing talents at a young age, the clan elders immediately concluded that he must be a prodigy with excellent singing and dancing in the future. Many people of the same age and opposite **** in the clan are vying to be his future son's wife.
Gong Xiqiu has seen many disputes in this environment.
When they argued together, he apologized and settled down.
It's better for him to apologize than a few people fighting and turning into a gang of people fighting with mallets, right? Gong Xiqiu still often takes pictures by himself in the water, and wonders why the people in the water are so handsome.
It’s already like this at a young age, can you grow up?
A little older, Gong Xichou knows it, he thinks too much, his aunt and uncle lie to his son/nephew without even blinking his eyes, Gong Xichou has practiced boy kungfu since childhood, and he has reached a certain level in cultivation. In front of the realm, there is no female sex.
I still remember that my uncle warned him seriously.
【Masculinity is not allowed either. 】
Gong Xiqiu: 【…】
【We are dedicated to the gods. 】
Gong Xiqiu knew how to pierce his heart at a very young age, and asked his uncle innocently and ignorantly: 【It turns out that uncle is dedicated to the gods, so Mama doesn't like it, right? 】
That day, Gong Xiqiu's **** blossomed.
His cry spread from one end of the clan to the other.
Recalling the trivial things in my childhood, I was already facing Gong Xiqiu who had parted with my bosom friend, and I was even more depressed: "Mama?"
Shen Tang was brought back to his senses by this sound.
"Huh? Haha, I'm fine, I'm just a little surprised when I suddenly come across this... fact that is different from the science I've known before..." Shen Tang waved his hands again and again, revealing the distraction with a sneer, and his heart was overwhelmed.
She felt that she was not well.
In vain she was still talking nonsense in front of Wang Chao during the day, inviting him to smell her fresh flesh, good guy, in less than half a day, the speed of light was reversed and slapped in the face. The vest she is currently using, perhaps, with a high probability, is possible... the not-so-fresh sacred object of the Gongxi Qiu Clan? How should this be done?
She was momentarily bewildered.
With a heartbeat, he suppressed the twitching corners of his mouth.
A coincidence is a coincidence, but when several coincidences are superimposed, it is not a pure coincidence.
According to the description of the dowry maid who later became a dancer in Jiaofang, Second Master Shen of the Shen family is a lover of antiques and entertainment. If it is not guaranteed, the coffin he brought back to the Shen Mansion overnight was bought from those Daodou people. After opening the coffin, I saw that the sacred relic lying inside was somewhat similar to the missing lady of the Shen family. Just as the marriage was approaching, I asked the relic to replace the marriage.
Afterwards, the "Holy Object" belched on the way to distribution.
Shen Tang passed through at this juncture.
So, everything is smooth!
Shen Tang gasped.
If the science of this world is really under the pressure of theology, not only will there be a holy object with a literary heart and courage, a corpse that has been sleeping for two hundred years without decay and can be deceitful, and a benefactor of the Gongxi tribe who keeps saying that he will come back...
Then his face turned pale again.
What about her, an outsider who inadvertently took possession of the sacred vest? Will it be seen through at a glance? Will he be burned alive as a monster? Will he be slapped on the wall by that benefactor of the Gongxi tribe who became ashamed and angry?
No no no!
Shen Tang shivered violently.
Slapped the table with a slap: "Absolutely not!"
Gong Xiqiu was so frightened by her that he almost lost his grip on the pottery bowl, his eyes were blank: "Mama, what's 'absolutely impossible'?"
Shen Tang sneered and laughed: "It's nothing, it's just that I was annoyed by the story that appeared in a flash of inspiration."
Looking at Gong Xichou, he secretly said sorry.
Unless Gongxi Qiu followed the vines to find her body, otherwise, she would not take the initiative to jump out and tell Gongxi Qiu that the vest she was wearing at the moment was most likely an old man who had been buried in their clan's holy land for more than two hundred years. Zongzi.
Furthermore-
With the fact that the Gongxi clan has kept the benefactor's promise for more than two hundred years, and there is only one person in the whole clan who refuses to give up easily, coupled with Gongxi Qiu's enigmatic brain circuit, it is difficult to guarantee that once Gong Xichou knows that he is The vest is sacred, and he won't do anything about it. Shen Tang guessed that this fellow might politely invite Shen Tang to lie back in the coffin and wait with him for the reincarnation of his benefactor.
_(:з)∠)_
Since it’s all about waiting—
She'd better wait outside the coffin.
Thinking of this, Shen Tang felt extremely sad.
Looking at the delicious dishes on the table, I lost my appetite for chopsticks.
Gong Xichou saw her sad, and also thought that their bosom friends would part ways soon, so he also whimpered, sighed and shed tears, knocked on the bowl with chopsticks, and sang the song that he had just had a sudden inspiration. That tune makes people pee.
Shen Tang hugged his head and sobbed.
Gong Xiqiu burst into tears while singing.
In such a large hall, no one dared to approach the pair of snake spirits. Feeling ashamed, Gu Chi raised his hand and recalled Yu Zi and Xian Yujian, who had expressions like lightning strikes.
Xian Yujian is not bad.
After all, he doesn't know any music theory.
Yu Zi understood.
She bit her lower lip: "Sir, the master and the others..."
Gu Chi smiled in the direction of the lobby, with a deep and complicated smile that Yu Zi didn't understand, and said: "Don't pay attention to them. One is drunk too much, and the other is not drunk. Everyone gets drunk, let them have a good time." Let's get drunk... After all, there won't be many opportunities like this in the future. One time counts as one..."
Yu Zi only thinks that Mr. Gu is really gentle.
Mr. Kang is much more reasonable than Mr. Kang.
However, Mr. Kang is also very good.
Xian Yujian felt that there was something in this gentleman's words, because from the point of view of the Wenxin scholars he had contacted, there was something wrong with this group, and what he said was quite different from what he thought in his heart. The former cannot be believed, while the latter has to guess.
The young man nodded at Mr. Gu.
Gu Chi stood on the porch, watching the young man raise his hand, his martial energy gathered his spear, and his figure danced with exquisite marksmanship vigorously. Even a layman can see that the young man has a solid foundation and excellent martial arts.
But Gu Chi was in no mood to appreciate it.
He looked up at the bright moon in the sky.
Suddenly remembered that day, he and Shen Tang were walking by the stream in the cold night wind, chatting while walking.
It is more accurate to say that it is a chat, but it is actually more accurate to test each other.
He tested whether Shen Tang was the person he was looking for.
Shen Tang is testing whether he is a useful person.
Later, in order to win his trust, Shen Tang wanted to reveal her biggest secret, and said that if he heard the secret but refused to keep his heart, then she could only keep his body.
Gu Chi naturally did not want to choose to refuse.
He doesn't want to be divorced from Shen Tang one day, and be killed by the other party with this reason. This worry is not without reason.
It's no longer limited to Gu Chi and a few.
Somebody has a struggle.
Struggle requires unity.
Different factions are divided according to the division of teachers, regions, interests, and relationships, and each fights for interests, positions, or morality.
The more people and factions there are, the easier it is to cause trouble. Shen Tang will learn how to balance them in the future, and in the process of balancing, he will go further and further away from some people, which is inevitable.
It's like Shen Tang today is still satisfied with riding a pig in addition to heavy official duties, but in the future, this insignificant happiness will not be able to satisfy her. Even if he has the way of a scholar who can listen to the voices of the people, he dare not say that the changes of people's hearts are under control.
Shen Tang will change, and so will the people who follow her.
The human heart is something that cannot be figured out.
Come to think of it, this is the secret the lord will tell that day, right? Gu Chi clasped his hands in his sleeves, and looked at the moon for an hour at a glance, but Xian Yujian thought he was watching his cultivation. Gritting his teeth, he dared not slack off even more, and worked hard.
The second day.
Gong Xiqiu woke up with a hangover and found himself back on the bed in the inn room, and heard the sound of water behind the screen.
He knew who that person was, pulled up the quilt, curled up on his side, and prepared to lie down for a while. Followed by the sound of footsteps approaching.
"Parents, please wash your face."
It was originally the boy who disguised himself as a man.
Gongxi Qiu saw that he couldn't sleep on the bed, his mouth was full of anger under the quilt, and the moment he lifted the quilt, he returned to normal color - secretly said, this is a maidservant, not his subordinate, and he can't be against him even if he is angry in bed The defenseless weak woman Caesar.
"How did I come back?"
"It was Lord Shen who sent you back."
To be precise, it is dragging and dragging.
also refused the help of Gongxi Qiu's subordinate officer.
She could only watch as Gong Xichou rushed up, face down, lying on his back, being dragged all the way back to the room by Shen Tang. For a while, it was difficult for the subordinate officials to judge whether Shen Tang had good intentions or intentional.
_(:з)∠)_
Tell Gong Xichou, he will probably roll his eyes—nonsense, Mama people are kind-hearted, they must be kind!
as expected.
Gong Xiqiu washed his face.
The smell of the hangover seems to have faded a lot.
"Mama, it's really hard for her to bring me back." Gong Xiqiu's reply also made the maidservant speechless for a while.
For a while, it was unclear whether Gong Xichou was thanking or mocking.
Gong Xiqiu asked again: "Where is she?"
The maid hesitated for a while, watching Gong Xichou's face.
"I went out at dawn, and the person brought by Mr. Shen began to pack his bags, and left the inn after noon. We have only left for a short time now, do parents want to catch up?"
Who knows that Gong Xiqiu was not at all unhappy when Shen Tang left without saying goodbye, humming last night's score in his mouth, he patted his thigh and sighed after humming: "Oh, it's still Mama who understands my thoughts."
Knowing that he hates parting, he held a practice banquet, packed up his things and left at dawn to avoid unnecessary sadness.
Too!
Where do we not meet each other in life!
Separate today, how do you know we can't meet again tomorrow?
As everyone knows—
Gu Chi smiled and asked Shen Tang: "Why are you in such a hurry, my lord?"
Shen Tang looked back while riding a motorcycle.
Make sure that there is no dust raised by the horse behind you, so you can rest assured.
"Aren't you in a hurry to be chased by Gong Xiqiu?"
Shen Tang admitted that he was a little upset, so he deliberately dragged Gong Xichou, who made the drunk Gong Xichou look easy to bully? If you don't take advantage of the bullying now, it will be hard to say when you go to the battlefield in the future. Quickly negotiated a good deal with the people brought by Zhang He, signed a contract in triplicate, and she took the people to wipe the soles of her feet.
Gu Chi couldn't help but laugh.
However, when he heard Shen Tang also start humming Gong Xiqiu's impromptu score last night, his smile froze.
Try to find other topics to divert from.
"My lord."
"What?"
"I was a little emotional for a while."
The Second Monk Shen Tangzhang was puzzled: "Excuse me?"
She thought that Gu Chi was insulated from this word.
Ask along the way: "What are you feeling?"
Gu Chi smiled and said: "Naturally, I feel that I have been treated as a sharpening stone again. There is Wu Zhaode in the front, and Zhang Yongqing in the back..."
"Where did you say that?"
"The few people brought by Zhang Yongqing today are members of the famous family in Lingzhou. The plague in the early years helped Zhang Yongqing gain a firm foothold in Lingzhou, and he took down Yiru without any effort. This somewhat annoyed the local famous family. It's just that Zhang Yongqing's reputation is too high, and he himself is cunning and cautious. He couldn't kill him by various means, but he took the opportunity to cultivate a lot of power..."
Shen Tang: "Are they hostile?"
Gu Chi smiled: "The relationship between people sitting in this kind of seat can never be described as 'friendly' or 'hostile'. They are on guard against each other to kill each other, and they also cooperate and depend on each other for development. What is needed at the moment. In the eyes of outsiders, exchanging spiritual wine for medicinal materials is a guaranteed business. I waited for so much profit, but Zhang Yongqing didn’t eat this piece of cake by himself, and was still interacting with each other. The plan of the famous family, I guess the latter thinks so too."
Shen Tang understands this routine: "You say that, Zhang Yongqing is a traitor on the outside, deliberately using this method to deceive people?"
With years of operation, the medicinal material market has become a major source of income for Yiru. In addition, the harvest has been very bad these years. The income of these gentry families is almost all in the red. The difference lies in the amount of the deficit. There are a lot of people in the clan, and the annual expenditure is a huge number, and sooner or later they will finish eating.
Many people set their sights on the medicine industry.
The current world is so chaotic, there are wars everywhere, and there is chaos. Not only rice grains are popular, but also medicinal materials.
The former fills the stomach, and the latter can save lives.
Every family will tilt their center of gravity towards it.
Could Zhang Yongqing’s move be a draw from the bottom?
Take the opportunity to suppress and gather power?
Not impossible.
There are also local gentry investing in Zhang Yongqing, hoping that other competitors and enemies will stumble and give up the cake to eat for themselves.
Gu Chi said: "Almost."
"What happened to Wu Zhaode?"
Gu Chi said with a smile: "Wu Zhaode also took away a lot of benefits with the spirit wine. The Wu family is originally from the Tianhai family, and it is much more convenient to do it than Zhang Yongqing. I guess I have made a lot of money these days. The lord looked at them, not thinking about it. Do you want to try it?"
This kind of game of fighting outside and fighting inside.
Shen Tang thought about it.
Embarrassing: "The territory of Heyin is barely considered a family. It seems that I have shaved it clean and confiscated all the family property... If King Yama dealt with it more diligently, I guess they would all grow to six or seven in their mother's womb by now. Is it the month?"
She probably won't be able to experience this kind of fun anymore.
Hi(..)
There is one more day, and the double monthly ticket activity will start on the 29th. Babies, remember to vote for your precious monthly pass in the early morning of the 29th.
