Tong Fang returned to the inn where she lived and told Cui Mo everything that happened to her in the palace: "Brother-in-law, who do you say that person will be?" As far as Tong Fang knows, the bigger the family, the more respectful and humble it is. If this person's status was not high, it would be impossible for her to dare to say such things to herself when the princess did not let her speak.

After listening to this, Cui Mo said: "She is the Quan Mama I told you, this person is not only the princess's upbringing, but also the princess's mentor." "It's no secret that Mama Quan taught Yuxi pharmacology.

Tong Fang said with some disbelief: "I heard that Grandma Quan is in her fifties, but I see that the person is only about forty years old. "Because of her good maintenance, people in their fifties look like they are about forty. It's because I've been bumpy for two years before, otherwise I would be younger than now.

Cui Mo said: "The person you are talking about must be Mama Quan, there is no doubt about that. Ah Fang, what do you think about this? It's a good thing that Mama Quan thinks you want to take you as an apprentice, but this condition is too harsh. You're still young, so you'll have to think it through before deciding. Cui Mo didn't feel that Mama Quan was unkind, it was normal to teach her skills a little bit. And Mama Quan didn't force Tong Fang, but let her make her own choice.

Tong Fang shook his head and said the same sentence as before: "Brother-in-law, when Xiang Weiguo and I reconcile and leave, I don't want to marry again." After a pause, Tong Fang said: "Brother-in-law, if my father and mother ask me where I am, please don't sue them." This time, Tong Fang's parents' behavior broke her heart. She has done what she should do, and there is nothing else she can do. And the palace is heavily guarded, as long as she doesn't take the initiative to reveal her identity, her parents can't find her.

Cui Mo heard this and asked, "Are you really deciding not to marry again?" Ah Fang, once this matter is decided, there is no room for repentance. "If Ah Fang dares to repent, then there will be no place for Tong Fang in the northwest.

Tong Fang said very firmly: "I have already decided. And I think that if I can be like Mama Quan, I am actually very happy. "Mama Quan has the respect of the princess, and she is not worried about her old age, and she has a good life without marrying.

Cui Mo was rarely silent, and said: "You can decide this matter yourself! As for your father, don't worry, they don't dare to make trouble when they know that you are in the palace." ”

The next morning, Tong Fang entered the palace and said her decision. After finishing speaking, Tong Fang knelt on the ground and said, "Mama, I can swear to God." If I ...... in the future"

Before he finished speaking, he was interrupted by Yuxi. Yuxi said: "If you agree, you don't need to swear any poisonous oath." "Yuxi doesn't believe in any poisonous oath, if the oath is really useful, where in the world are there so many wicked people. If you really have a heart, you will naturally obey it, and if you don't have an intention, it's useless.

The matter was settled, and Tong Fang lived in the palace that afternoon. Mama Quan did not let Tong Fang apprentice, but asked her to recognize words and herbs first. Only after passing the guò test can you formally learn the arts, and before the apprenticeship, the foundation is laid.

Yan Wushuang was talking to Meng Nian about planting artichokes, and because Liaodong had to fight with the Donghu people every year, the people's days were about the same as in the northwest before. After Yan Wushuang took power, he promulgated a lot of decrees to benefit the people in Liaodong, but the idea was good, but the effect was not very good. It's not that the decree issued by Yan Wushuang to benefit the people is not good, it's just that the officialdom in Liaodong has not been thoroughly rectified before, these officials deceive their superiors and subordinates, and the people can't enjoy the decrees that benefit the people at all. Therefore, these decrees are equivalent to a dead letter. After Yan Wushuang found out, he sent Qin to find out a group of corrupt officials and corrupt officials, and all of them were killed. It is only now that the officialdom in Liaodong is considered clearer.

Meng Nian said: "Lord Wang, I think the yield of the artichoke crop is high, and it is also excellent if it can be popularized in Liaodong." "The situation faced by Liaodong is the same as that of the northwest, which is short of food and clothing, and the grain mainly depends on grain-producing areas such as Jiangnan and Shandong. The yield of this artichoke is so high, it would be a pity if it was not promoted in Liaodong.

Yan Wushuang said: "You can do this, don't make a mistake." "The yield of artichoke is high, and it is popularized in Liaodong, and the common people will not worry about not eating in the winter in the future, so they will starve to death again.

For Liaodong, Yan Wushuang's feelings are extremely deep. Therefore, after taking power, he issued a series of decrees to benefit the people, but unfortunately the result was diametrically opposite to what he thought. In fact, if he can, he also hopes that the people and soldiers of Liaodong can live the same good life as the northwest. It's a pity that he doesn't have the same luck as Yunqing and Han's, not only can he loot so much money from corrupt officials and corrupt officials, but he can also find the place where Ji Xuan hides treasures. Yunqing got the money. Not only can it reduce the burden on the people, but it can also do a lot of things. In the depths of Yan Wushuang's heart, he was still very envious of Yunqing and Yuxi's fortune.

Meng Nian thought for a while and said: "Then let the farmers follow the method of the northwest, plant every month, and try to plant for two years, and then they will know which month is the most suitable for planting." "The place is different, the climate is different, and the month for which the plant grows is different, so this has to be tested in advance.

Yan Wushuang nodded and said, "It's best to find another crop with high yield and suitable for Liaodong." Yan Wushuang believes that as long as you have a heart, you can always find it.

Meng Nian nodded, and told Yan Wushuang about Liaodong again. Now the places that the imperial court really controls are not only Liaodong, but also the three provinces of Hebei, Shandong and Shanxi, and other places have lost their control power.

Tang Bo opened the curtain and walked in, and said to Yan Wushuang: "Lord Wang, Guo Zhong has been poisoned, and now I don't know if he lives or dies." "Guo Zhong is one of Yan Wushuang's most trusted subordinates, otherwise he would not be able to serve as an errand to protect the imperial city.

Yan Wushuang asked as he walked, "How could Guo Zhong be poisoned?" With the assassination of Qiu Dashan, Yan Wushuang and his henchmen were very concerned about their own safety, so it was difficult to succeed in assassinating and assassinating such things.

Uncle Tang also said with a solemn face: "Today is the time for Guo Zhong to rest, he went to the Yang family dog meat restaurant in Yangjiao Hutong to drink, but he was poisoned in the wine. "Except for people who are very close, outsiders don't know that Guo Zhong likes to eat dog meat. And the Yang family's dog meat restaurant tastes authentic, Guo Zhong came to the capital to find out such a place, and he went in disguise at that time. As a result, he was conquered by the skill of the cook. On weekdays, when he has free time, he will disguise himself and go over there to eat meat and drink.

Yan Wushuang's face became worse and worse: "Guo Zhong went to the dog meat restaurant before in disguise, and no one knew his identity. And this time he gave Guo Zhong a drink, obviously he came prepared. "What Yan Wushuang means is that there is something wrong with them inside.

Tang Bo didn't say anything.

Meng Nian didn't quite agree with Yan Wushuang's words: "Lord Wang, the population of the dog meat restaurant is complex, and it is not impossible for someone to recognize Ah Zhong. "There are only a few of them who know that Guo Zhong will disguise himself and go to the dog meat restaurant to eat dog meat, and several of them are like brothers to Guo Zhong, and no one will harm him.

Yan Wushuang said: "I'm afraid that I will inadvertently say that I will be listened to by someone with a heart." "It is impossible for those who know the inside story to tell others about it, but they can't prevent it from saying it when they are drinking. I even forgot about it myself, and this is the most terrifying. Because at that time, you won't even be able to find out who leaked the secret.

Meng Nian nodded and said, "This possibility is not impossible, but the most suspicious person should be the person in the tavern." The murderer must be hiding among those people. Guo Zhong often goes to the Yang family's dog meat shop to eat dog meat, and Meng Nian disapproves of it, he thinks it is too dangerous. Meng Nian also persuaded Guo Zhong before, saying that if he liked the cook's skills, he would recruit people into the mansion, and let the cook cook if he wanted to eat. But Guo Zhong said that the chef made it at home was not as delicious as it was in the dog meat restaurant, and there was no atmosphere. persuaded twice, and Meng Nian stopped talking. If he had known that such a thing would happen, he would have persuaded him at the time.

By the time Yan Wushuang arrived at the dog meat restaurant, Guo Zhong was already out of breath. At this time, the doctor had not yet arrived. But there's already a doctor in the dog meat restaurant.

When the doctor saw Yan Wushuang, he immediately knelt on the ground and said, "Lord Wang, what General Guo drank was a poison that sealed his throat with blood, and there was nothing he could do about it. "This doctor has good medical skills, but no matter how good his medical skills are, he can't save people.

Yan Wushuang ignored the doctor, and walked over to Guo Zhong's corpse. Looking at Guo Zhong's blue complexion, Yan Wushuang's eyes flashed with a lustful light: "What kind of poison is it?"

The doctor shook his head and said, "The prince forgives the sin, the little one has never seen that kind of poison." "This is supposed to be a new type of poison.

It was Imperial Physician Zhang who came over and explained this poison to Yan Wushuang. Guo Zhongzhong's poison is extracted from a thousand houndstooth seeds. The seeds of the thousand houndstooth are very toxic, and if the animal is accidentally eaten, it will be poisoned, and the poison that is still refined in Guo Zhongjiu cannot be saved by the gods.

Yan Wushuang had already regained his composure at this time, and asked, "Where is this thousand bird flowers?"

Imperial Physician Zhang said: "This thing is available in many places. "It's impossible to know who the murderer is from the source of the poison.

Yan Wushuang didn't talk nonsense anymore, but personally carried Guo Zhong's body out with Qiu Dashan. The others looked at Yan Wushuang's calm face and didn't speak, and they were a little scared in their hearts. Because this shows that Yan Wushuang has been angry to the extreme.

Meng Nian arrested all the people who were in the mutton restaurant at the time and threw them into the cell, and then began to interrogate them one by one. After interrogating for a long time, Meng Nian told Yan Wushuang the result: "According to everyone's confessions, this poison should be the second child who has just arrived at the dog meat restaurant for half a month." We found Xiao Er's body in the well water of the dog meat restaurant. ”

Yan Wushuang asked, "What is the identity of Xiao Er?" Generally, this kind of restaurant recruits people, and there will be more requirements. One of the most important things is that you have to be trusted and familiar with someone you know or be guaranteed by a reliable person. After all, it's food, and if you have a bad intention and want to poison someone, the store can't afford to pay for it.

Meng Nian said the identity of Xiao Er: "This family lives in Yangjia Hutong, but there is only one younger brother left after the death of both parents, and I have already sent someone to find his younger brother." ”

Yan Wushuang said with a cold face: "Find the person for me, and look for it in every corner." "This little second is smart, and he committed suicide first for fear of being tortured. However, the blood debt still needs to be paid in blood.

Meng Nian nodded and said, "Lord Wang, don't worry, we will definitely be able to catch the murderer and avenge Ah Zhong." "Not dying on the battlefield but dying in conspiracy, Meng Nian's heart is heavy. R1148
