Journey To the World of Film and Television
Chapter 372 Are you eating melon seeds?
Beiliang Palace.
Xu Fengnian looked at Chen Zhibao's back with a solemn expression.
Just like Zhou Ji just now, Chen Zhibao exposed the bitter scheme he and Chu Lushan set up with a single word, with a bit of sarcasm in his plain words, although he didn't say it directly, but the contempt in his eyes didn't seem to take him, the prince of Beiliang, into his eyes at all.
Turning around to look at the corner, Xu Fengnian smiled and said, "You were worried that Chen Zhibao would kill me, so you followed me?"
Jiang Ni shrank her head in fright, lifted the corner of her skirt and fled back to her yard, and said while running, "You are talking nonsense, I just passed by accidentally while I was drying my books!"
Xu Fengnian shook his head and smiled, walking towards the courtyard.
It is not known when the next round of assassinations will come, but both Chu Lushan and Ning Emei have been cleared of suspicion. Chen Zhibao's appearance seems to be the most suspected one, but he is also the one with the least suspicion.
After all the calculations, this farce should be over.
"Lu Qiuer, go back." Xu Fengnian glanced at Ning Emei who was kneeling next to Chu Lu Mountain, "If you still want to kneel, you can continue to kneel."
Chu Lushan knelt down on the ground, and when he heard Xu Fengnian's address change, he immediately understood, got up and didn't hold on any longer, with a humble and apologetic smile on his face full of fat, his eyes glanced at Ning Emei, who was still standing upright and confronting the prince, Slapping Ning Emei on the back of the head, he reprimanded in a low voice, "You really intend to keep kneeling!"
"General." Just as Ning Emei was about to say something, she was pulled up by Chu Lushan. She turned her head to look at Xu Fengnian, and found that the tables, chairs and tea sets in the yard were being removed, and Xu Fengnian had already walked to the side of the corridor to talk to the white-clothed man. The guard spoke.
"Where's Lao Zhou?" Xu Fengnian glanced left and right while holding a straw rope wrapped in lotus leaves. Nangong Pushe crossed his arms, and a faint smile appeared on the corner of his mouth, "Take his wife out."
"That's really his wife?" Xu Fengnian looked at Nangong Pushe with a strange expression, and asked tentatively, "Why don't you go with me?"
Nangong servant Jianshe frowned slightly, moved a few steps to the side, and said in a deep voice: "It's agreed, I will enter the Tingchao Pavilion after finishing the guard."
"You don't need to be so rigid, you can go now." Xu Fengnian said while holding the straw rope, "Let's go."
Knowing that you can enter Tingchao Pavilion now, Nangong Pushe's expression eased, and he followed Xu Fengnian to the Chaohu Lake where he was fishing before.
Xu Fengnian threw the lotus leaf in his hand far away, and the originally calm water surface surged undercurrents, instantly engulfing the things wrapped in the lotus leaf.
"What's that?" Nangong Pu shot his eyes like cold stars but couldn't penetrate the depth of ten meters of water. He faintly felt a hint of danger leaking from it, and subconsciously held the two knives with a serious expression.
Xu Fengnian knew what Nangong Pushe was asking, so he changed the subject and said, "Roast chicken."
Seeing that Xu Fengnian didn't want to answer, Nangong Pushe didn't continue to ask.
Recalling Zhou Ji's strange expression looking at the lake yesterday morning, Nangong Pushe understood with a thought.
This guy must have discovered the secret long ago.
Curiosity is curiosity, Nangong Pushe's greatest wish at present is to enter Tingchao Pavilion to learn Beiliang Tibetan martial arts.
Xu Fengnian took her through the door and walked in. His eyes were full of ancient books.
Xu Fengnian introduced her to the layout of the building, and reminded her that she had to tell Xu Xiao in advance to go up to the fifth and sixth floors.
Nangong Pushe heard that there are more than 30,000 volumes of basic cheats on the first floor of Tingchao Pavilion, which does not include the advanced martial arts on the third floor. Xu Fengnian said, "There are so many martial arts cheats, why don't you know martial arts?"
Xu Fengnian laughed when he heard the words, "The academy is full of moral articles, are there fewer bastards taught?"
"That's not the same thing." Nangong Pushe shook his head and said.
"I'm lazy, can this reason work?" Xu Fengnian sat down on the spot, picked up the teapot beside him and poured a cup of tea, took a sip, raised his eyes and said, "You also want to persuade me to take over Beiliang?"
"What does it matter to me whether you take it or not?" Nangong Pushe walked to the round bookshelf in the tower, took a cheat book casually, and said lightly, "I just think that what that guy said is not unreasonable. "
"Which guy? What are you talking about?" Xu Fengnian got up and looked at Nangong Pushe, and suddenly realized that his frivolous expression gradually subsided, and he said in silence for a moment, "I'll think about it again about the lightness kung fu."
Nangong Pushe carefully flipped through the scroll in his hand, as if he had never heard of it.
Xu Fengnian couldn't help laughing, brushed the dust off his sleeves, and said with a smile: "Look slowly, I'm leaving first."
Went to say hello to Grandpa Wei who was guarding Tingchao Pavilion, Xu Fengnian walked out of Tingchao Pavilion, before returning to his courtyard, he saw Lao Huang running towards him in a hurry, pulling him to the street to watch a play with a full of joy.
Knowing that someone scolded him in the street, Xu Fengnian also became interested, and called Jiang Ni who was sweeping the floor, and the three of them went out to the street. From a distance, they saw a young literati on the roof of the carriage, and loudly reprimanded Prince Beiliang.
Pedestrians on the street came and went, seeing that Lin Tanhua couldn't swear new tricks, there were not as many people as before.
Xu Fengnian was about to find a place to squeeze in to watch the fun, but Lao Huang grabbed his sleeve and called him down. Lao Huang nuzui signaled, "Master, look over there."
"Eh? Old Zhou?" Xu Fengnian stood on tiptoe and followed Lao Huang's line of sight, and saw a familiar figure in the innermost part of the crowd who had already occupied the best position, eating melon seeds to watch the show.
Hearing Xu Fengnian's voice coming from the periphery of the crowd, Zhou Ji stretched out his zhenqi to protect his body, and an invisible wall of Qi opened from the crowd, extending to the front of the three of them.
Before Xu Fengnian was shocked for too long, Lao Huang squeezed into the crowd first and waved at the two of them.
Xu Fengnian and Jiang Ni followed and got close to Zhou Ji.
"Why are you here too?" Zhou Ji held the flower pot in one hand, and grabbed a handful of melon seeds with the other hand retracted into his sleeve, and handed it to the three of them, "Do you want to eat it?"
"Thank you." Xu Fengnian was stunned, took the melon seeds with both hands, and signaled to Lin Tanhua on the roof of the carriage, "Old Huang dragged me here, saying that someone in the city scolded Prince Beiliang in the street, how did you scold him? Don't miss the fun, right?"
Before Zhou Ji could answer, Lao Huang started eating melon seeds and said with a playful smile, "You can't even understand cursing, young master, I don't think he scolds very well?"
Because Zhou Ji's position is relatively close to the carriage, and he has been cracking melon seeds there all the time.
Not only did he drink it himself, but he also kept giving points to the passers-by next to him.
As a result, Lin Tanhua was giving an impassioned speech on the 'stage', and the people in the front row were eating melon seeds.
Lin Tanhua has been focusing on this 'culprit' all the time, now when he heard Lao Huang insulting himself with vulgar words in the name of joking, the powder keg that was already full in his heart seemed to touch a little spark, It exploded with a bang.
Zhou Ji glanced at Lao Huang, held back a smile and said, "Old Huang, you are too hurt."
"What's the damage? You're good at scolding!" Another skinny old man squeezed into the crowd, holding a cane, and said angrily, "Without the Northern Starling Army, how could the world be as peaceful as it is now!"
The more the old man talked, the more excited he became, and reprimanded him: "I have received Taiping's favor, and I don't want to be grateful, shame on you!"
Xu Fengnian recognized the old man at a glance as a Beiliang veteran, and hurriedly stepped forward to support him, for fear that he would cause trouble by contradicting him. The old man is also a genius, blind and lame. Miss Fan was so out of breath that she was speechless.
As a result, the commotion caused the passers-by to disperse, and in the end, only melon seeds were left on the ground.
Zhou Ji saw Lao Huang and Jiang Ni walking away, shook his head, held the flower pot in one hand and put the other behind his back, walked leisurely, and followed.
At the same time as the cuffs were fluttering, a gust of wind suddenly picked up the melon seeds that had just been scattered on the ground, and smashed them towards Lin Tanhua on the carport.
Lin Tanhua had just agreed with Miss Fan and planned to go directly to Beiliang Palace to scold Xu Fengnian face to face, but before he got down from the car shed, the sudden gust of wind and the overwhelming sunflower seeds smeared his whole face.
While dodging, his foot slipped, and he rolled down from the carport with a plop, kicking up solid dust all over the floor.
On the way to Xu Yongguan's house, Zhou Ji learned from Lao Huang that Xu Fengnian had known this old Xu Tou before. His eye disease and leg injury were the root causes of his illness during that period.
Xu Fengnian would come to see him whenever he was free, but he never knew Xu Fengnian's identity, he only knew him as a child of the Xu family.
Xu Fengnian traveled abroad for three years, and Xu Yongguan was also very happy to see her again this time. When he got up, he was about to go to the yard to catch a duck for them to cook.
Xu Fengnian knew that Old Xu's legs and feet were inconvenient and he suffered from eye disease, so how could he do it himself? Lao Huang looked around and volunteered to catch ducks.
Seeing that he managed to catch a duck and brought it into the kitchen, Xu Fengnian smiled and said, "Old Xu Tou, I haven't seen you in two or three years, he is so generous, he is willing to kill his own duck for us to eat."
Xu Yongguan said casually, "I don't raise ducks."
Xu Fengnian's movement of pouring water suddenly froze. He turned his head to look at the ducks in the yard and the swaying door curtain. The corner of his mouth twitched, "Then what did we catch just now?"
"The neighbor's family." Xu Yongguan nodded and smiled, "The neighbor's family came to visit."
Zhou Ji couldn't help laughing out loud, Xu Fengnian's reflex arc was obviously slowed down a bit, and in astonishment, he quickly called out Lao Huang, who had duck feathers on his hands and was full of doubts.
Xu Fengnian forced a smile, and his tone was a little weaker, "It's all right, remember to add salt."
at the same time.
Inside the general's mansion.
Chu Lushan, who was supposed to leave the mansion long ago, had just resigned from Xu Xiao at this time. Xu Xiao looked at the secret letter in his hand, although there were not many about Nangong Pushe, there was a thin stack, but about the other person, there was only almost A page of blank paper.
Can't find out the origin, can't find the origin.
It seems to have popped up suddenly from a mountain nest isolated from the world, and it just quietly appeared in the hinterland of Beiliang.
Xu Xiao couldn't be sure whether Zhou Ji was pretending to ask about the court situation and martial arts level from Lao Huang and Chu Lushan, or if he really didn't understand anything, but one thing he can confirm is:
Xu Fengnian, who looks frivolous on the surface but is actually prudent and suspicious, has just met Zhou Ji not long ago, and he is full of trust in him like a best friend for many years.
The letter paper in the brazier turned into flying ash, lingering in front of Xu Xiao, and the flames were extinguished. This father who had no pretensions in front of Xu Fengnian showed the majesty of a murderous man.
Everyone was full, Xu Fengnian wanted to ask Lao Huang to leave some money as compensation for eating the other party's duck, so Lao Huang put down the bamboo stick for picking his teeth and smiled embarrassedly.
Xu Fengnian lifted his forehead and raised his hand, interrupting directly, "I was wrong, I shouldn't have asked you."
Lao Huang laughed apologetically, and sat beside him.
"Don't look at me, my money box is still at home~" Jiang Ni noticed that Xu Fengnian was looking at her, and subconsciously covered her pocket, only halfway through the cover did she realize that she had no money at all!
So he gave Xu Fengnian a fierce look and stared at Xu Fengnian, "You took two copper coins from me this morning!"
"Are those two enough?" Xu Fengnian looked away awkwardly, looking at Zhou Ji, with hope in his eyes.
Zhou Ji couldn't help but laugh.
Anyway, his money is all blown by the wind, so he won't feel bad no matter how he spends it.
He casually took out a piece of gold leaf from his sleeve, flashed a flash of light, and stuck it on the table.
Seeing this golden leaf, Jiang Ni's eyes straightened, swallowed, looked at this golden leaf with some envy, and wondered how long it would take him to save so much money, if he could have such a With this sum of money, not only can I buy a coffin for myself, but it can also make funeral affairs more ostentatious.
On the way back to the General’s Mansion, a familiar carriage was parked on the main street outside the gate. The gate of the General’s Mansion was closed tightly. Miss Fan, who was standing with a sword, saw Zhou Ji and the others approaching. The person who kept cracking sunflower seeds, and encouraged the people next to him to eat together came over.”
The corner of Lin Tanhua's mouth twitched, and when he heard the word 'guazi', the bruise that had just fallen from the car shed seemed to start to hurt again.
"So it was Lin Tanhua in person." Xu Fengnian saluted Lin Tanhua and asked why he was here.
Knowing that they came here specially to see Prince Beiliang, Xu Fengnian took the initiative to invite Ying to call the door and invite him into the mansion.
Lin Tanhua had seen through Xu Fengnian's identity but still pretended to be ignorant and shocked, and limped up the steps with Miss Fan's support.
Now Xu Fengnian was a little dumbfounded.
He hadn't noticed just now on the roof of the carriage that Li Yang was walking with a limp when he was in court.
"Lin Tanhua's legs"
Noticing the strange gazes of everyone present, Lin Tanhua sighed annoyedly, and said, "I'm ashamed to say, just now there was a strange wind blowing in the street, and Lin slipped and fell, and accidentally fell."
As soon as the words fell, there was another crisp sound of cracking melon seeds behind her. Lin Tanhua's heart trembled, and she almost fell down the steps.
(About the update, please allow me to explain. When I type, I often write, write, delete, and delete. The efficiency of coding is very low. It usually takes four or five hours to complete a chapter. Even this paragraph is deleted. It took me a long time to write this.)
(Usually by the time the code is finished, it is already past eleven o'clock or twelve o'clock, which is the usual update time. Occasionally, there are hundreds of characters left after the code is written at twelve o'clock, so the only way to keep full attendance is to use anti-theft methods. This novel style It is a small group, so the grades are not very good, and the income of full attendance is really important to me.)
(I also ask for your understanding.)
