Chapter 677 The Game of Hiding This and That
This restaurant is very elegantly made, with small bridges and flowing water, pavilions and rockeries, and the scenery of the south of the Yangtze River everywhere.
Xiang Xiaodong chose a room not far from the gate. Seeing his younger brother being picked up by Hao Huashi, he hesitated for a while, but still didn't go to help him.
Hao Huashi asked him casually: "Xiao Jun, what are you thinking?"
said to Xiaojun: "Have you guys paid attention to that thing blocking the carriage?"
He compared his hands: "A long iron rod has a bend at one end, and two wheels are strung together at once. Once it is separated, the carriage will break down... Therefore, the carriage is walking on the road. While rushing over, wouldn't it be possible to damage any carriage with such a gear? Isn't that very dangerous?"
Turning to Xiaodong, he said, "That's true, but what happens after it's broken?"
Xiang Xiaojun was puzzled for a moment: "After what broke?"
Xiang Xiaodong said: "He broke the carriage like this, in fact, only the right front wheel was really damaged, but the horse is still galloping forward, so unless the speed is very fast, there will be a tendency to lean forward to the right first, and then be dragged up. "
He also made a comparison with his hands: "So, the people in the carriage are likely to be injured, but they will not die, or even be injured, but just frightened. The person who stopped the carriage must have follow-up arrangements. For example, this time, It must be on a secluded trail where few people pass by, otherwise it will be a change when you meet someone else... So what you are worried about is that anyone can harm someone, that's not it."
Xiang Xiaojun suddenly said: "Yes. But I still think that the wheels of the carriage can be covered with a shell."
"That won't work," Xiang Xiaodong said, "It's not easy to check normally, and it's more likely to cause problems."
Tuanzi couldn't help participating in the comments, "Their guards are too weak, and the bad guys suddenly rushed out to block the carriage, and they couldn't stop them."
Hao Huashi smiled and said, "Do you think everyone is a junior master?"
"No," Tuanzi said, "Of course Xinbao knows that there is only one wife, but why can't we use some tools? Do you know that there is a kind of sleeve arrow that can be placed on the arm, and it will swish when you touch it lightly?" Shoot the arrows out."
Xiang Xiaojun asked in surprise: "There is such a thing?"
"There are indeed," Hao Huashi said: "But you can't shoot arrows, how long are the arrows? You can only shoot golden needles, Xiao Jun, if you want to see it, I'll make one for you to see."
"Yes, yes," Tuanzi looked at him: "Look at it, learn from it, and make a good-looking one for Xinbao, Xinbao wants..."
She paused and blinked: "Xinbao has to think about what he wants, and then write to you when the time comes."
Nodding to Xiaojun: "Okay."
Yuan Shenjue said in a low voice: "She wants to add a small mechanism, with a candy hidden in it... This is what she wants. But it is not allowed."
He looked at Xinbao: "No. It must not be easy to clean this kind of mechanism. Put sugar in it, how dirty is it? If it is filled with poisonous needles, it will be even more unsafe."
Tuanzi silently blinked his eyes wide.
As expected of you.
Obviously Master has space, so much candy can't be put in, but these two people love to play this kind of small game of hiding here and there, teasing here and there every day, never getting tired of it, it really makes people don't know what to say.
While talking, several people went to the room and sat down.
After a while, everyone was hungry, so they didn't have to wait for Wang Ronggui, they just ordered food to be served while talking.
The two elder brothers are not talkative people, just watch them talk.
Xiang Xiaojun has a gentle temperament, and gets along well with them. A few people get together and chatter about, you and me, talking non-stop.
Xiang Xiaojun intends to teach his younger brother to observe etiquette and pay attention to address, but seeing the smile on his face, the others don't care, and they can't bear to say more, so they just glanced at Yan Shifan calmly.
Yan Shifan didn't care about this, his eyes were always on Xinbao.
After a while, Wang Ronggui also came over, saluted and sat down, Xinbao asked him: "Has my sister returned home?"
Wang Ronggui answered with a smile, and thanked her again.
Hao Huashi asked him with a smile: "My lord, who was that just now? It's like a bad brain, doing such a bad and tasteless thing, but with a chaste expression... ahem, like a real gentleman. "
Wang Ronggui originally came here to explain on purpose, and said: "This person is the grandson of the late Zhuge Lao."
In Wang Ronggui’s family, the typical grandfather is powerful, but like his father and uncle, his talents are mediocre. Therefore, as the eldest grandson of the eldest son, Wang Ronggui was brought and taught by his grandfather since he was a child.
The situation in Zhu Ge's hometown is very similar to theirs, so Zhu Ge's elder also took his grandson with him, who was the young Zhu Bingyang just now.
It happened that the old concubine and Mrs. Zhu were handkerchiefs and had a good relationship, so they got married when Wang Qingge was only five years old, and Zhu Bingyang was only ten years old at that time.
Unexpectedly, Zhu Ge died of old age early.
Zhu Bingyang was only eleven years old, and he was far from fully grown when Zhu Ge died.
But Zhu's family is originally a family, and they have some foundations, guard it well, even if the official career is not going well, there is no danger of being rich and peaceful.
The two families have been in contact with each other. Until later, he gradually gained a firm foothold in the court. Once, he accidentally heard some bad things about their family, and he was worried, so he sent someone to investigate.
After checking the results, I was really shocked.
Zhu Bingyang's father, Zhu Cheng, was very incompetent, but when the old man was under the pressure of Zhu Ge, he was just mediocre, but once the old man died, he let go of it completely, took a few beautiful concubines, spoiled his concubines at home, and killed his wives outside. Colluding with officials, monopolizing lawsuits, lending usury, dare to do anything.
As for Zhu Bingyang, he was originally considered a young talent, but it may be because of the shock of his grandfather's death, his whole person has changed, he is gloomy, and he loves face extremely. Even later, someone beat him up privately because of a classmate who was a good friend, and finally found out about him, and was expelled from the Imperial College.
Wang Ronggui said: "My grandfather was a gentleman. Even though the Zhu family was down and out, he never thought of retiring, but the poor are easy to talk about, but those who behave badly can't do it! And such a family style... I really don't feel at ease. Some of Zhu Cheng's crimes were collected, and they were brought to him, so that his family would withdraw the marriage, and then the marriage was withdrawn logically. As a result, Zhu Bingyang came to me again later, saying that he..."
He gritted his teeth: "Anyway, he said some crazy things. He and Wu Niang haven't seen each other for many years. They are really talking nonsense! I threatened him a few words, but considering the previous friendship, I didn't make trouble. Because of the relationship, I recommend him to study in Qingzhou Academy."
"In the end...Zhu Cheng was involved in the case of the Second Highness, and was demoted. Only then did I find out that Zhu Bingyang had been expelled from Qingzhou Academy again. I didn't investigate why. He also came to my house later. We haven't seen each other a few times, and it's been more than half a year, I never thought that he would dare to do this!"
