Chapter 108: Old Phoenix

Save yourself and destroy the enemy -- Mao I Ze I Dong.

Destroying the enemy is important, but there is a more important premise, saving yourself.

Yun Xiao agrees with Taizu's theory that dealing with the Empress Dowager Dou requires extreme patience and endurance.

This golden phoenix, who has been entrenched in Chang'an for many years, the emperor alone looked at it for four times. If this grandmother has a good memory when she was a child, it is estimated that she should also have an impression when Liu Bang hangs.

After a long period of tempering, she has gained superhuman political acumen and political wisdom. What to punish the Lu family, assist her husband to suppress his son. To use a sentence in layman's terms, people eat more salt than you kid eats rice. Liu Che's grandson wants to fight with her, don't tease, Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty is a grandson in front of her, let's wash and sleep.

Yun Xiao wanted to make it bad, so he could only quietly enter the village to shoot.

So Yun Xiao quietly entered Ganquan Palace and quietly bribed Aunt Ying. also quietly curry favor with this golden phoenix, what kind of thing is a phoenix Yun Xiao has never seen it. Nor has he studied its recipes, but Yun Xiao believes that this thing should eat people. I heard that this thing can breathe fire in its mouth and light in its eyes, but the Queen Mother can't breathe fire in her mouth and her eyes won't shine.

But this golden phoenix can decide life and death in one sentence, and it is better to be blind than open.

Ganquan Palace is an open place, with a large awning to block out the scorching sun. A gentle breeze brings the moisture from the lake, and the flowers around the platform are in full bloom. The fragrance of the attacking flowers is refreshing, and the bursts of birdsong are pleasant.

Even Yun Xiao, who is a human being in two lifetimes, has to admit it. This Empress Dowager would enjoy much more than Cixi Lafayette. The stone boat in the Summer Palace has become an affordable house compared to this platform.

"Minister......

"Yo...... You brought worms. Show the old man. ”

Before Yun Xiao could give a salute, the Empress Dowager, who was originally lying on the recliner, sat up suddenly, and stretched out her hands in the direction of Yun Xiao.

…… Yun Xiao was very skeptical that this old lady was blind or not. It's so weird that before she finished speaking, this old lady actually knew that she had a gnat. The gnats didn't bark either!

Doubts are doubts, Yun Xiao still took out the gnats from his arms. Both hands were held to the maid, and the maid was transferred to the empress dowager.

The Queen Mother happily hugged the grub cage, and she didn't know how to tease it, but she just received it in her hand. The grasshopper screamed crisply, and the grasshopper's cry was naturally high-pitched. I don't know if the old lady counts birds. Why do you like these bugs so much? Listen to the high-pitched cries of the grasshoppers. The wrinkles on his face were almost all smiling.

After a long time, Yun Xiao's gift was sour. Only then did the Empress Dowager remove her ears from the cage and hand the gnather to the maid she carried.

"Yun boy, that is, you know the mind of my blind old woman. People say you're smart. Sure enough, smart people do smart things. I heard that you made a fortune again when you went out this time. Gongsun He is so rich now! ”

"The Empress Dowager. General Gongsun sold the plundered Xiongnu women to earn some silver. Yun Xiao also swept some, afraid that there would not be enough people around the Empress Dowager. He brought five hundred Hun maids to wait for the Empress Dowager. Such as the Empress Dowager's reward. Let them do some stupid work. ”

Yun Xiao hurriedly took himself out, this crime of bribing Yulin can be big or small. It can be said that Yun Xiao is generous and does not treat his subordinates harshly, and it can also be said that Yun Xiao invites people to buy people's hearts and plots against him.

Seeing that there were dry goods, the Queen Mother's face was obviously better.

"It's hard for you to go out and pin your head to the waistband of your pants to earn this idea. What's even more commendable is that I still think about what the old body likes. Nangong's affairs are old, the emperor has this heart and is the granddaughter of the old body, and he doesn't even have a name that makes people panic. Although the title has been changed now, the royal reward will not be less......"

"Empress Dowager Xie, the minister will definitely treat Her Royal Highness the princess well."

"This matter was discussed between the first emperor and the old body, and the old body also nodded. It's nothing, but the matter of your fiefdom being upgraded to a marquis, the old body can't help you. Since Taizu, there has been no feudal kingdom. The old body doesn't want to break this case, you know that once you break this case, it will be difficult to tie the hole.

Besides, you're young. If the seal is big, what can I do if I make meritorious deeds in the future, the old body has to leave some room for future generations. It is not good for you to be a meritorious master, and you should understand this truth if you are a smart person. ”

The Empress Dowager taught earnestly, and her words were also true. If you can give it, you will give it, and if you can't give it, it will be useless to hit the wooden clock.

"You went to pay the emperor's decree, but the emperor didn't say anything?"

Yun Xiao was still reminiscing about the words of the Empress Dowager, and the cold Empress Dowager came to say this.

"His Majesty told the minister about the riot in Lintong some time ago, and it was the minister's lack of strict governance that made His Majesty worry about such a thing. This is Wei Chen's is not, the minister has already discussed with His Majesty Xià a way to compensate for the dead Yulin. Hopefully, the bereaved families of these fallen soldiers will be satisfied. ”

"Well, you can rest assured. I can't blame you for this incident. At that time, you were fighting for your country, and there was merit and hard work. The imperial court will not forget your merits, and this time it also rewarded you with a thousand stones. There are not many people who have this reward for your position, as long as you are dedicated to the country, the Han court will not treat you badly. ”

Yun Xiao listened to the words of not being treated badly and living up to in Lantai. Niang's Lao Tzu killed so many Huns, and only then did he give Lao Tzu a thousand stones. The old lady now speaks honestly and honestly, which is more oily than the piece of paper that wraps the cake. Eighty percent of this old lady grew up drinking sesame oil.

After worshipping the Bodhisattva in a circle, Yun Xiao was as tired as a grandson. Fortunately, Ganquan Palace is not far from the Yun family, and when he returned to the Yun family, Yun Xiao stuck on the bed.

Hey, it's not the felt quilt that is hard enough to be used as sandpaper. It's not a shiny and slippery fur, it's soft and elastic to the touch. It's actually cotton, although Yan Xian is a little more literary and artistic, but Chi Ling's hands are very skillful.

Chi Ling, who was born in Fireworks Willow Lane, actually has a good needlework, and the stitches of the quilt are finely sewn. The cotton continues to be symmetrical, and this girl has no teacher for the application of cotton. I slept in Nangong last night, and the bed was still covered with that fur. It was so hot that Yunxiao's white hair sweated so that Caiyun prepared a few bath waters. Of course, the piston movement with Nangong is also one of the reasons for sweating.

The long-lost quilt made Yun Xiao feel a little cordial, and Chi Ling stood at the head of the bed with a blushing face.

I finally knew what it meant to be a little weak, and I tossed with Nangong last night. This morning, I visited the pier non-stop, and I saw all the big guys like the third grandson.

Now even if it's really a fairy standing in front of Yun Xiao and stripped naked, it's so fucking tired. The old Liu family is not a good person, and his little life will be tossed by the Liu family sooner or later.

Chi Ling's gentle little hand took the initiative to stretch out, kneading Yun Xiao's head for a while. After a while, let Yun Xiao turn over and give Yun Xiao a massage on the back. It seems that Sister Chi Ling must have been instructed by a master, and her massage techniques are more professional than Ellis.

Under the gentleness of the hand, Yun Xiao fell asleep in a drowsy state, and an old man named Zhou Gong appeared in front of him, saying that he wanted to communicate with Yun Xiao in the strictest way.

I slept well, and I don't know how long it took. Yun Xiao broke free from Zhou Gong's grasp, and when he opened his eyes, there was already a candle flame in front of him. The old man named Zhou Gong was gone, and only Yan Xian sang coaxing Yun Yan to sleep.

"Wake up, I can't bear to call you when you sleep so much. If you're hungry, the kitchen leaves you with food. Yan Xian patted her son gently with one hand, and whispered to Yun Xiao.

With a gurgling stomach, Yan Xian said that Yun Xiao really felt hungry. The last meal was when I left home in the morning, steamed bread, millet porridge and small pickles. Now it's early for the fuck to digest the light, and I see that my son is not asleep yet. Yun Xiao stood up on tiptoe and made a shushing gesture to Yan Xian.

Out of them, Yun Xiao walked barefoot on the thick woolen carpet. The soft feeling came from the soles of the feet, and the corridor was quiet. I don't know what time it is, but it looks like it's late.

Chi Ling quietly followed, holding a covered candlestick in her hand. After walking a few steps to the front of Yunxiao, the road was lit up in an instant. (To be continued......)
