Keyboard Immortal - 12. Chapter 12

Hearing his wife’s words, Chu Zhongtian was silent. The Jiangshan in Dazhou was defeated by Emperor Taizu, but Taizu’s sons died in the war of unification, so Taizu’s younger brother adopted his second son to Taizu. This is the current king of Qi.

In a tragic war, Taizu died together with the foreign powerhouse. Because the adopted son was still young, and the country he had just laid down was not stable, he passed the throne to his younger brother, the Emperor Taizong, before he died.

Emperor Taizong inherited Taizu’s legacy and unified the eight wastes and six harmony. Unfortunately, because of the many old injuries suffered on the battlefield, not many teenagers reached the limit, but he made difficulties when choosing heirs.

It stands to reason that his throne came from his brother’s line. It was also because of the fact that King Qi was too young and for the future of the family and the country, he replaced him. Now he should return the throne to the grown-up King Qi.

But people have selfishness. Although King Qi is actually his son, he has been passed on to Taizu, he is a member of another house. Naturally, he is not as good as his real eldest son, King Jin.

Therefore, he played a small trick and ordered that whoever broke through the realm of earth fairyland first would pass the throne to whom.

At that time, King Jin was much older than his second son, King Qi. In addition, Taizong, as the emperor, must have more resources at his disposal. He secretly assisted, King Jin naturally took the lead in breaking through to the realm of immortality and successfully inherited the throne. , Which is the current emperor Gaozong.

However, there were still many veterans who were loyal to the Taizu line. The line of Taizu’s wife and clan naturally supported King Qi. In order to appease this group of powerful forces, Taizong ambiguity mentioned that their brothers should reach out to them. Quit a period of misfortune.

But a hundred years later, Emperor Gaozong was also approaching the five decay period of heaven and man, but he made his son the prince. This naturally aroused the dissatisfaction of the king of Qi. In addition, the prince was already modest, far inferior to the king of Qi. Surprisingly talented, many other courtiers also moved their minds.

But after all, Gaozong had been emperor for hundreds of years, and his confidant forces were strong enough that the two groups had been fighting openly and secretly over the years.

The Chu family has two major industries of salt and iron, and it can be described as a rich and adversary country. Such a pivotal family will naturally be attracted by both sides, but Chu Zhongtian is unwilling to be involved in the royal prince dispute and has always maintained neutrality. The royal faction plans a few days ago Send someone to find the Chu family to propose marriage and tie him to the chariot completely.

The Chu family is very embarrassed, because the Chu family is different from ordinary families. There is a big secret that cannot be known by outsiders. Chu Chuyan has supported half of the Chu family over the years. If she is married away, the whole Chu family Will immediately fall into the risk of being swallowed up.

Chu Chuyan knew all this too, so she offered to recruit her son-in-law, and found the most trash guy in the city to be the son-in-law. He hurriedly held the wedding and completely cut off the thoughts of the emperor and the Qi kings.

That’s why Qin Wanru suspected that this destruction of Lingquan was someone sent by the emperor or the king of Qi.

“No matter which side we are, we will not have a better life in the future,” Chu Zhongtian said in a deep voice, “Sang Hong will soon take over as the prefect of Linchuan County.” Mingyue City is within the jurisdiction of Linchuan County.

Qin Wanru’s face changed slightly: “Da Si Nong Cheng Sanghong!”

Da Sinong is one of the nine officials and is in charge of the national finances. Da Sinong Cheng is the second in command of Da Sinong. Sang Hong has always supervised Yantie, a cron of the emperor. This time he was sent to Linchuan. The county guard, he made it clear that he came from the Chu family.

“I heard that this person was cruel, and the six relatives did not recognize him. In recent years, the capital did not know how many nobles were destroyed by him. This time our Chu family may be in danger.” Qin Wanru looked worried.

Seeing his wife who was always strong, Chu Zhongtian hugged her in his arms: “The soldiers are here to cover the water and soil. Our Chu family is not easy to bully. His Sang Hong is only an eighth rank. By then, it is still unknown who will die. .”

Qin Wanrubai glanced at her husband: “Whether it’s difficult to deal with is not just a matter of personal cultivation. The thief Chen Xuan of Longyin Mountain outside the city is only a sixth-rank, and I haven’t seen you destroy him for so many years?”

Chu Zhongtian snorted, “The guy Chen Xuan was very slippery. Shenlong didn’t see the end. He disappeared every time I got the news and rushed away. So I suspect that there is someone in this city who should ventilate him. Report the letter, otherwise so many years, how could you not catch him!”

Qin Wanru’s eyes rolled: “This group of thieves not only sells illegal salt, but also robs and kills the caravan passing by, and throws this problem at Sang Hong. As the county guard, could he still sit back and watch.”

Chu Zhongtian’s eyes lit up: “Ma’am, good idea. By the way, I heard that the caravan from the Yu family is coming to Mingyue City recently. They have to inform them so that they won’t be ambushed by Chen Xuan’s group…Oh, it hurts… ”

Before he finished speaking, Qin Wanru caught his ears: “I think you are worried about Yuyanluo, the mistress of the house, and Yushu Qiongzhi as Yanluo, the first beauty in Beijing, you still shamelessly pursue it. It’s a pity that she finally married Princess Yunzhong. Why, do you still want to take the opportunity to continue your relationship?”

Chu Zhongtian hurriedly begged for mercy: “Madam, people have been married for so many years, so I don’t have any other ideas, don’t talk nonsense.”

Qin Wanru didn’t let go, and snorted coldly: “But as far as I know, Yunzhong County Lord passed away unexpectedly a few days ago. Now Yu Yanluo is single.”

Chu Zhongtian’s eyes lit up: “Really?”

He immediately felt two murderous glances around him, and hurriedly changed his words: “Madam, I don’t even know these, it proves that I have never paid attention to her, not to mention that you don’t know my situation, why not? What thoughts will there be.”

Seeing his sad expression, Qin Wanru hurriedly let go of his ears: “My husband, I’m sorry.”

Chu Zhongtian shook his head: “I am sorry for you.”

Qin Wanru didn’t want to see him like this, and hurriedly moved away from the subject: “By the way, where did Chu Yan go?”

Chu Zhongtian replied: “She took the young lady from Pei’s family to play in the city.”

Qin Wanru frowned: “She comes from Pei’s family, and she should be from the same line as Wang Qi. This time she suddenly came to Mingyue College to study, and she always felt that she was a little ill-intentioned.”

Chu Zhongtian laughed and said, “Don’t worry, your Chuyan is so smart, and he has a sense of measure in his heart.”

Qin Wanru snorted: “That Pei Mianman is not too old, but he was born like a fox Meizi who turned all living creatures upside down. Those peach eyes seem to seduce men at any time. I don’t like her.”

Chu Zhongtian laughed dumbly: “Are you still worried that she will steal a man from Chuyan?”

Thinking of Zuan’s unlucky appearance, it’s hard to imagine Pei Mianman would like him. Qin Wanru couldn’t help but laughed, “I’m eager if she really takes that bastard away.”

Ahhh~

Zuan sneezed fiercely, thinking that she didn’t know which lady was missing herself.

“Auntie, have you caught the cold? If you are younger, I will find you some thick clothes to wear.” A startled voice sounded. Before Zuan could react, a figure surrounded him with a piece of clothing. Body.

Zuan was stunned and stared at the young man in front of him. He was about fourteen or five years old. He was dressed in blue and wore two buns like steamed buns on his head. His eyes were quite big and looked thin. Tender skin.

“No, buddy, who are you?”

“My uncle is so small, the youngest is your book boy.” The young man had a flattering smile on his face.

“Shuboy?” Zu An was taken aback first, and then he realized that he was going to Mingyue Academy, but it was just going to a family private school. Is there a special bookboy for him?

It seems that this ducal mansion is really a big dog, um, I like it.

“What do you call me?”

“Uncle?”

“I didn’t hear you clearly, louder?”

“Uncle!”

“Not bad, your kid has a future.”

Zu’an’s face suddenly bloomed with joy. Since entering this world, he hasn’t encountered a pleasant thing. Although he is the son-in-law of the Duke’s Mansion, who in this mansion puts him in the eyes? Let alone take the initiative to call his uncle.

It is rare for a little book boy to be so witty, and Zuan feels very comfortable all over.

“By the way, what’s your name?”

The little book boy was shocked, and hurriedly replied: “Back to my uncle, the younger one is called Shou Ping.”

“What bottle?” Zu An thought to himself that ordinary bookboys are not called Laifu Wangcai or something, but Hua An is a big deal. The simpler and easy to remember, the better. Why does this guy’s name sound so weird?

“Cheng Shou Ping, tight-mouthed Shou Ping, the name given to me by the master himself!” Speaking of this, the little book boy straightened his chest and said proudly.

“Yes, I can get a name from the master himself.” Although Zuan doesn’t know the customs of this world, but he wants to come to the same world, the name given by the master is a kind of great glory, like the previous life Zheng Chenggong, who was bestowed by the emperor. After the surname, everyone respectfully calls him the national surname.

“My uncle passed the award. I was very pleased with my master when I was doing things next to my master. I was transferred to the back kitchen. I thought there was something upsetting my master, but now I learned that I was arranged to be your book boy. The master’s hard work will definitely sharpen me a few years ago and prepare me to accept a more important mission.” Cheng Shou Ping said that these two eyes were shining, and his expression looked excited.

“Wait…” Why does Zuan feel that the more he listens to it, the more wrong he feels. He knows exactly what is going on with his aunt. This guy thought it was a beautiful job?

It seems that IQ is not very high.

And this guy clearly worked beside Master Chu at first, why was he sent to a place like the back kitchen?

However, he obviously doesn’t care much about these things, and he is more concerned about issues related to him: “Listening to what you just said, you should have been in the Chu family for a long time, and you should know a lot of things.”

Cheng Shou Ping patted his chest: “That’s natural. When Chu Mansion goes up to the old lady and down to the man’s servant, there is nothing I don’t know about.”

Zuan was about to inquire about the intelligence in the mansion. He had only been here for two days, and so many people wanted to kill him, but he still didn’t know where the problem was, which made him feel a huge sense of crisis.

He thought for a while and asked, “Do you know why the Chu family chose me as his son-in-law?” This is what he is most puzzled by. You must know that Chu Chuyan is top-notch from the appearance and family background, and Zuan in this world, From any point of view, they are all wastes. Normally, the two people shouldn’t have an intersection. It’s really weird to be married to each other.

Hearing his question, Cheng Shouping looked at him with a puzzled look: “Isn’t it because my uncle Yushu Linfeng is handsome and handsome?”

Zuan’s eyes are straight. This guy’s serious nonsense ability is really quite a bit of the uncle’s look: “Ahem, although I know you are telling the truth, is there any other reason?”

“No, it was the lady who chose you when she thought you were handsome at the time.” Cheng Shouping thought that you guys could not find other advantages besides this point. Didn’t he have a B number in his heart? Of course these thoughts He didn’t show it at all. At this moment, his eyes and expressions were as sincere as they were.

“Oh, did you say that the young lady chose me personally?” Zuan keenly noticed the information revealed in his words.

“Yes, my wife was not very satisfied at the time, so I advised her to think twice.” Cheng Shou Ping replied.

Zuan interrupted directly: “There is no need to say these unimportant things.”

At first, he guessed that Chu Chuyan had to marry him because of his parents’ destiny, so he became murderous with dissatisfaction, but according to Cheng Shouping’s words, this possibility can be directly ruled out.

But why did Chu Chuyan choose herself as her son-in-law? The girl has bright eyes, not blind.

Pooh, pooh, she must be convinced by my handsome face and greedy my body.
