Chapter 85 Tact and Prudence
So, the last time the black girl came to the capital, it was to hold a beggars conference and officially take over the dog-beating stick? He Ran imagined a scene in his mind of a black girl holding a dog-beating stick, and then a group of beggars with eight or nine bags hanging on their bodies, spitting on him. So, the first person to be exploited by the black girl was not herself, but King Jin and Feng Jieying? The black girl did not come specially to give him the three thousand taels of silver, but came to the capital to hold a beggar gang meeting, and King Jin and Feng Xueying sent people to escort them all the way to the capital. Even if He Ran knew that the Beggar Clan was having a meeting at that time, she would not run out of curiosity to find out. Cats have their own catwalks, rats have their own rat lanes. As long as the Beggars Gang doesn't hold a meeting to discuss the demolition of Jinghong Tower, Master He will be too lazy to care about their affairs. "Do you have an insider in the Beggar Clan?" He Ran looked at Lu Zhen. Lu Zhen was nervous for a moment. The girl in front of him who looked younger than him was not his fiancée, but more like a boss, although her tone was very gentle. "No, no!" Lu Zhen paused before continuing, "That day I went to walk my horse outside the city. It happened to rain heavily, so I spent the night in the ruined temple. In the middle of the night, a group of beggars also came to the ruined temple. , seeing other people in the ruined temple, the group of beggars left. I saw that they did not look like ordinary beggars, so I felt something was wrong, and sent someone to follow them quietly. They changed places to spend the night, although they were together , but they were divided into two factions, one faction supported the new gang leader, and the other faction was disrespectful because the new gang leader was young and a woman, so the two factions quarreled." Later, Lu Zhen asked someone to bribe one of the people who opposed the group. The next day, all these beggars went to see the new gang leader, and the man told Lu Zhen the truth about what happened that day.
In fact, it was not only Lu Zhen's people who followed Hei Mei, but also the faction that opposed him. However, those people came from Baoding and were not familiar with the capital. They were quickly thrown away by Hei Mei, but Hei Mei also Unexpectedly, there was another group of people following him, and these people were natives of the capital and were more familiar with this place than he was. Lu Zhen's men followed him to Laomofang Hutong and stopped following him, returning to answer his orders. Lu Zhen didn't even tell his grandmother about this matter. He finally found the opportunity and he didn't want to miss it. That's right, the opportunity Lu Zhen wanted was the opportunity to come to Jinghong Tower to meet He Ran. Maybe he didn't want to embarrass He Ran, so since He Ran returned to Jinghong Tower, Li Jinxiu wouldn't let Lu Zhen come over. Even if he came, he wouldn't be allowed to go upstairs. However, at this moment, Lu Zhen felt that Master He was not embarrassed at all. He was the only one who was embarrassed. He Ran nodded with satisfaction: "Wise and cautious, very good." After saying that, she drifted away. At this moment, Lu Zhen seemed to see an invisible hand patting his head. Good job, kid. A green light flew over his head: "Wise, cautious, very good!" Lu Zhen was shocked, who was this mean voice? What Lu Zhen didn't know was that after that, He Ran sent people all over the city to search for the whereabouts of the black girl. However, after two days of searching, not only the black girl was not found, but there was no sign of the three white dogs. They didn't go back to the capital, but went to other places? For some reason, He Ran always felt that something was wrong since he learned that the black girl was a descendant of the Zhou family, but she couldn't explain it. Fortunately, at this time, news finally came back from Black Earth going south. After the news that King Zhao had an orphan alive was released, eight orphans of King Zhao had already found him. Among them were King Zhao's twenty-year-old son, his thirty-year-old grandson, and his thirty-five-year-old son-in-law. There was even a woman holding a pair of seven or eight-year-old twins, saying that they were King Zhao's sons. . Heitu wrote in the letter that he deeply suspected that these people did not know who King Zhao was at all. If you don’t know who King Zhao is, of course you won’t know that King Zhao died before and after Emperor Taizu. How could there be a twenty-year-old son, a thirty-year-old grandson, and the seven or eight-year-old twins? Could it be that King Zhao became a ghost? raw? Kurotsuchi also wrote in the letter that he felt deeply sad because he did not know who King Zhao was, but he knew King Qi. Everything was obliterated, even King Zhao was obliterated.
He Ran understood Heitu's "deep" sorrow, because King Qi was the son of Taizong, and he was adopted into the name of King Zhao, but he changed his name to King Qi. This actually cut off the lineage of King Zhao. He Ran wrote back to Heitu and asked him to continue searching. As soon as this letter was sent, He Ran received a second reply from Heitu. Obviously, this was sent at the same time as the previous letter. Heitu told He Ran that someone from the government was eyeing him and he changed places overnight. But this also proves that the news he released has caused a "deep" sensation. He Ran wrote back again: "Wise and cautious, very good." The letter was dictated by her and written by Xiaoli. After she finished speaking, Xiaoli said: "Master, you praised Prince Wu'an the same way that day." He Ran: "Really? It's possible, because they are all my juniors. Don't you think this is the best compliment to the juniors?" Two days later, He Ran came out of Jinghong Tower and was about to go back to Laomofang Alley. Before she had gone far, an official sedan suddenly stopped in front of her. She looked at the sedan chair. Who could it be if it was third grade or above? At this time, a senior attendant came over and bowed respectfully: "Master, my pavilion boss is waiting at Mei Yingxuan in front. I would like to ask you to honor me." Mr. Ge?
Mr. Guo Ge, the chief minister of the dynasty?
He Ran smiled: "Okay." Meiyingxuan is neither a restaurant nor a tea shop, but a calligraphy and painting shop. However, such shops are usually very elegantly decorated. When He Ran walked in, the long attendant from before was already waiting, and he accompanied He Ran to the second floor. An elegant room. The window was open in the elegant room, but a charcoal fire was lit. On a small red clay stove, a teapot was simmering, and a seven or eight-year-old child was making tea, and his gestures were impressive. On a bamboo mat not far away, there was a tea table and two futons. Guo Shoufu was dressed in a Taoist robe and sat cross-legged. His temples were dyed with a few silver stars, but his eyes were bright and seemed to be able to see people. Deep in my heart. He Ran bent down slightly to salute, and Guo Shoufu said with a smile: "No need to salute. It's inconvenient for me to get up like this. I can't return the salute. Wouldn't it be rude?" The voice is hearty and makes people feel good. He pointed to another futon: "Master, please sit down." He Ran nodded and sat on the futon. The boy divided the cooked tea into tea bowls and held it in front of the two of them. Guo Shoufu raised the tea bowl in his hand: "Guo used tea instead of wine to express his gratitude to the master." He Ran smiled: "Guo Shoufu is polite, it's just business." (End of this chapter)
