Jinghong Building

Yuan Xiaodong came back from the palace and did not return to his residence, so he went to Laomofang Hutong to pay his job.

In addition to that can of insects, there is also the news that Lao Hu brought to him.

He Ran asked Xiaoli to bring him the newly made snacks in the kitchen for food. Seeing Yuan Xiaodong leaving happily, He Ran was in a good mood.

It is good to be self-reliant in the palace, avoid being bitten by insects, and to eat Jingui Gu to fill his stomach.

There are still people who have been silent for many years who have not forgotten their original intentions.

Three days later, King Zhao wrote an article and asked Chunwang to send it to her for a look.

King Zhao has been practicing calligraphy seriously. When he was just found, he couldn't even write his own name. Now he can write a beautiful handwriting.

He Ran carefully read the articles written by King Zhao. The articles were as exquisite as his words.

The words and sentences are extremely gorgeous, and they are quoted from classics, but they cannot hide their childishness and paleness.

He Ran knew that King Zhao could ask Chunwang to send this article, which must be what he believed was well written.

He Ran smiled and said to Chunwang, "King Zhao has made progress. Xiaoli, bring my new Chengni inkstone and give it to King Zhao."

King Zhao was very happy to receive the Chengni inkstone brought back by Chunwang. Although he had not ascended the throne yet, many people tried every means to leave an impression on him. He often received gifts, including precious inkstones, but those inkstones and other gifts. Likewise, he was all left alone.

He used the same method He Ran gave him when he was in Jinyang.

On the way to Beijing, the inkstone knocked a corner off, which was broken, but he was still using it.

King Zhao said happily: "Sister guessed that my inkstone was old, so I gave me a new one. I must use this inkstone to write better words and better articles. Write them for my sister. My sister will definitely Happy."

Chunwang smiled and agreed: "Yes, the boss praised the prince for his good writing and good writing. With this inkstone, the prince will definitely be able to write better words and better articles."

"Chunwang, I'll give my sister a gift, okay?" said King Zhao.

Chunwang: "Okay, can you choose a good gift?"

King Zhao thought about it and selected a box of silk incense from the gifts he received.

"This fragrance must be very expensive, and only my sister in the world deserves the precious spices."

Chunwang sent the box of incense to Laomofang Hutong. He Ran was not there, and Xiao Ba received him.

In the evening, when He Ran came back, she saw the incense of thread sent by Chunwang.

Xiao Ba hurriedly said to He Ran, "If you lie, you will fan it. I will fan it several times a day. The boss, Xiao Ba will not lie."

He Ran touched the dazed hair on its head: "Yes, Xiao Ba is the most obedient."

Xiao Ba immediately became excited, flapped his wings and flew out, flew to the backyard, and saw the winter melon gnawing on the chicken legs. Xiao Ba shouted, "Catch the bad guy, Dong Gua wants to kill me, catch the bad guy, Dong Gua wants to kill me!"

Then fly to the front yard and find He Ran, and it will be a way to output it.

Xiaoba is the most obedient, Xiaoba doesn’t lie. If Xiaoba lies, it must be Donggua’s fault.

A few days later, King Zhao asked Chunwang to come and deliver something to He Ran. This time he sent the pills made by the Imperial Hospital, which are most suitable for women to take.

From this time on, every few days, King Zhao would ask Chunwang to come to Laomofang Hutong to deliver things.

Sometimes it is a piece of paper, sometimes it is a newly made snack in the palace, sometimes it is a few freshly picked flowers, and sometimes it is a new poem he wrote.

In short, if Chunwang didn't come to deliver things for several consecutive days, even the door would worry whether King Zhao was sick or whether Brother Chunwang was injured.

The days passed like flowing water, and in a blink of an eye, it was the happy day for Feng Zan to return to Beijing to triumphantly.

The last time Feng Zan came to Beijing was more than ten years ago.

At that time, he was just a bandit who had just won the battle. Although he was still an unknown bandit in the hearts of everyone, a mud-legged bandit that came out of a mountain valley.

He and his brothers, wearing various clothes, holding various weapons, riding thin horses, walked through the streets of the capital.

The people pointed and the officials despised and disdained them. The eunuchs spoke in a long tail sound, but they didn't even look at them directly, as if they would get dirty if they looked at them at one more time.

He walked into the Golden Palace. The Golden Palace was so big, the emperor sat so high, and the road he saw in Jin was so long.

When he knelt down, he even heard someone smirking.

At that moment, he suddenly breathed a sigh of relief.

It turned out that those people not only despise him, but also despise the emperor.

Just like every time he crawled out of the pile of dead people, he suddenly had confidence.

So when the emperor proposed to let the princess marry him, he agreed without hesitation.

The princess was old enough to be his mother, and the princess had become her grandmother.

But he still has no regrets. The princess, the condescending marriage, was the only straw he could catch at that time.

He became a laughing stock in the capital. Even if he later took the military power and led the army to attack the King of Jin, he was still a laughing stock.

At this moment, Feng Zan stood outside the capital city, with thousands of troops behind him, and in front of him were countless officials and people who came out of the city to greet him.

The owners of several major restaurants in the capital came in person to bring their best wine.

Feng Zan laughed loudly, took the wine and drank it all.

A scholar recited the "Fu of General Feng" loudly, which was a poem written by the students in the capital.

A child in the crowd said loudly, "I know him, he is General Feng in the comic strip!"

A hot flash surged in Feng Zan's eyes. He was already General Feng, no longer the bandit who was ridiculed.

There was a low crying sound from the team. There was no need to look at it. Feng Zan also knew that this was the soldier who was summoned to An with him back then.

After many years, they can finally walk into the capital with their heads held high.

"All the soldiers, follow me to the city and meet with the boss!"

With Feng Zan's return, it indicates the complete collapse of the new emperor's base camp.

The land of Lu, which King Qi has been running for many years, is now full of the banner of the Ran army.

When the new emperor went to Beijing to serve the king, he only brought his troops and horses, but did not take away his family.

Later, when the capital was moved, the new emperor's family left Qingzhou. Although he took away many treasures at that time, they were not all.

At that time, the people from the Qi Palace thought that after they arrived in Jinling, they could send people back to move things.

Even the new emperor himself thought so.

None of them expected that they would not be able to come back after they went there.

Feng Zan did not come to Beijing empty-handed. He brought back ten cars of gold, silver and jewelry, all of which were seized from Lu, most of which came from the Qi Palace.

There are spies from Ran’s army in Jinling, and of course there will be spies from Jinling in the capital.

The news that Feng Zan returned to the capital with a cart full of gold, silver and jewelry soon spread to Jinling and into the harem of the new emperor. The queen and several concubines who came out of the Qi Palace were all very sad. Those were their things.

They cried to the new emperor: "I left in a hurry back then, and I didn't even bring my own dowry. Now it's all cheaper for He Ran and Feng Zan, that bandit."

The new emperor was in a irritable mood. These women were too ignorant. When did they still care about that little thing?

The women think differently from him.

They came to Jinling and thought that they could enjoy all their wealth and glory by entering the palace.

But although they were queens and concubines, they were unable to enter the palace.

There is no real imperial palace in Jinling so far, and they still live in the temporary palace rebuilt by the Old Palace.

The current imperial palace is not as big as the Qi Palace, but there are several times more people living in it than the Qi Palace.

Their yard was small and cramped, and they had no decent place to receive the ladies.

In the past, when they were in the Qi Palace, they would go out for a walk, stroll in shops, have flowers and tea parties, and have banquets for their ladies and noble ladies.

No mistakes, one song, one content, one in 6, one book, one bar, one reading!

Those ladies would be envious of their clothes and jewelry, and they gained countless amazement.

But now all this is gone.

The new emperor advocated diligence and thrift. Although King Jin and King Kaizhou were gone, there were also giant bandits like He Ran, as well as Zhou Cangyue and Wang Hao who emerged one after another.

Someone proposed to build the palace when the court immediately attracted countless criticisms, and the national treasury was empty and the military expenditure was insufficient. How could a king of a country build a large-scale construction at this time?

The new emperor took the lead in saving expenses. After dinner, there were no more lights in the harem. The queen and concubines did not sew new clothes, and the jewelry they wore was brought from Qingzhou back then.

The more women think about it, the more they feel wronged, and there are crying in the harem.

The new emperor left in disgust.

He returned to his bedroom, and a moment later, an **** walked in with a pocket on his back.

The pocket is not big, and when placed on the ground, it is just a small ball inside.

Not long after, a tender cry sounded in the bedroom, followed by a scream.

Two hours later, the **** walked out of the bedroom with the pocket on his back, and something oozed out of his pocket and dripped onto the ground.

The **** didn't care. There were no lights outside the bedroom. The **** and the pocket quickly disappeared into the darkness.

A black shadow flashed out from behind the holly tree, and he lay on the ground and smelled it.

It's the smell of blood.

There is a street next to the water in Jinling City, with gray tiles and white walls built against the water.

There is a snack shop here that has been open for many years. The owner used to be an old couple. The old couple couldn't do anything, so they handed over the shop to their son and daughter-in-law. Although they changed their people, their tastes did not change, and those who came here to eat An old diner.

But today, the old diners went for nothing, and the snack shop was not open.

"Oh, what's going on? Could it be that the boss is sick?"

"No, the boss is so young, how could he get sick?"

The guy from the winery next door quietly told the diners: "The owner of this house is not sick, it's his daughter that something happened."

"Is it that pair of sisters? What a cute little girl, why did something happen?" the diners asked.

"I lost it. I went out to buy sugar cakes, but I didn't come back. You guys go back. If you haven't found your daughter, they don't have the heart to open a shop."

Diners were talking about it, some said that a little girl was lost in an alley, and some said that the relative's daughter did not come back after going out.

Soon, people's discussions changed from losing children to a group of flower-painting parties in Jinling City. These flower-painting parties are all bold villains. People with children must take good care of their children and don't let them go out to play by themselves. .

He Hua sat in the shop and chatted with several aunts, talking about losing the child.

"Have you heard it? All the girls lost are little girls, seven or eight years old. Oh, it's a sin. In my opinion, it's probably sold to the flower boat."

"That's definitely not our Jinling flower boat. The Jinling flower boat is still a rule and will not accept such good children."

"Not in Jinling? Wouldn't that be even more terrible? I heard that those barbarians would use their children's hands and feet to soak medicinal wine."

"There are also internal organs, and barbarians will eat the internal organs of children."

He Hua occasionally interjected: "Really?"

Or "Oh my God, there's still this?"

Or: "How sad should my father and mother be!"

A group of aunts left, and another group came, and they all talked about the same thing.

The biggest news in Jinling City now is not where Ran’s army will fight, nor whether Hua Zijun will fight, but whether the child will be lost.

After all, many families have children. In this world, there are never more parents who love their children than those who don’t love their children.

So soon, even more sad news came. The couple of the snack shop that lost a pair of twins. The wife went crazy and ran to the street in thin clothes. She asked everyone if she saw her daughter.

He Hua sighed: "Really?" "Oh my God, there is still this?" "How sad my father and mother should be!"

After seeing off a group of aunts, He Hua was about to have a cup of tea to calm her mood when suddenly a flash of eyes came to an end and there was another person in front of her.

An old woman, thin and straight, like an old tree.

"Do you know who stole the child?" the old woman asked coldly.

He Hua was stunned and quickly smiled: "Grandma Xiu, you are here, you are thirsty, I will pour you tea."

"Stop talking nonsense, I'll ask you who stole the child." Xiu Gu looked like she wanted to eat people, and He Hua was so scared that she shrank her neck.

"I don't know, I heard from people. Now it's getting more and more fierce. I just lost the little girl two days ago, and today even the big girl lost it together. I just don't know these things, which one is true and which one is true. Fake."

He Hua didn't care about Xiu Gu, but she knew that this old lady with a bad temper could not afford to offend her.

"I don't know if it's true or false? Then you still have the time to talk nonsense here, so why don't you check it? If you don't go, I'll send someone." Xiu Gu said sternly.

He Hua was shocked. Grandma Li said, "You can't let the old lady take the initiative. You must know that this person did what she said. Who knows if she is unhappy, she will cut off her head next moment. Who is destroying the family?

"You always help me see the store. I'm going to check it out now."

He Hua's fake smile is like honey.

Xiu Gu rolled her eyelids and said angrily: "Stop talking nonsense, why don't you get out of here."

After saying that, Xiu Gu sat down in front of the counter with a big golden sword, her waist and back were straight, and now she didn't look like an old tree. No matter how you look, she looks like a sword, a sword that was unsheathed.

He Hua didn't dare to delay and hurriedly left the shop. She went to a pawnshop first, chatted with the pawnshop's shop, went to a teahouse, drank a bowl of tea, and then went to the rice shop again, and asked. When I asked the rice price, I went to buy vegetables. After bargaining with the vegetable vendor, I had a few words. I didn't even buy vegetables, so I left angrily.

This time she went to the flower building, went in through the back door, and came out through the back door. (End of this chapter)
