Seriously, if it weren't for the traverser who knew the direction of history, Xu Xingxia would not have been able to completely conclude that the crown prince Zhu Changluo would have been able to ascend the throne smoothly. In fact, this lord's ascension to the throne is quite thrilling. Even, just a month after ascending the throne, he died. This period of history is confusing and intricate, and even the most powerful historical power, I am afraid that it is difficult to fully understand the struggle and shady scenes behind it.

The three major cases in the late Ming Dynasty, the Attack Case and the Red Pill Case, were all related to the crown prince Zhu Changluo. The palace removal case is related to his son, the Emperor of the Apocalypse. Many historians believe that it was the three major cases in the late Ming Dynasty that brought the party struggle in the late Ming Dynasty into a new stage. What is the truth of the three major cases, no one cares. All they care about is how to use these three major cases to bring down their opponents and obtain enough benefits.

After a long while, Xu Xingxia said, "It should be quite busy!" ”

Niuniu pinched the corners of her clothes, as if she still had questions to ask, but she couldn't remember what she wanted to ask, so she ran away.

Looking at Niuniu's back, Xu Xingxia couldn't help but think nonsense. How could this little girl be interested in the queen? The storyteller, I don't know what to say, what did he do when he mentioned the queen mother? It is estimated that the queen mentioned by the storyteller should be the sister of the general He Jin, that is, the Empress He during the period of Emperor Ling of the Han Dynasty. specifically mentioned her, probably to satirize that she was born in a butcher family, with a low status, and was not worthy of being a queen at all.

The storyteller is also a literati, as long as he is a literati, he is not used to this queen who was born in a butcher's family, and most of them propose to criticize it. In this way, it shows the superior surname of the literati. Seriously, Xu Xingxia is very unaccustomed to such a face. What happened to the butcher-turned-queen? Got you? Hmph, if you have the opportunity to lean into the opposition, you might as well let Niuniu also go to the queen's addiction. Damn, the queen from a military family, what's wrong? If you dare to say a word, Lao Tzu's butcher's knife will come down.

Speculate on Chongzhen's age, it seems to be about the same as Niuniu. Chongzhen and Niuniu were both born in the thirty-eighth year of Wanli (1610 AD), and the two happened to be the same age. The historical Empress Chongzhen Zhou was born in the thirty-ninth year of Wanli (1611 AD), which seems to be about the same! What the? Is such a thing ridiculous? What's ridiculous, He Jin was still a butcher before. Besides, most of the queens of the Ming Dynasty were from ordinary people, and there were no special requirements. Why can't Niu Niu be a queen? It's up to people!

"Sister! Did you sleep? ”

was in the middle of the sky when suddenly someone outside shouted.

Xu Xingxia went out to take a look and found that his aunt Wang was here. My aunt didn't know what to be happy about, but when she opened the wooden door, she was smiling, and even her walking steps were much lighter. As soon as she came in, she and her sister Wang were muttering quietly, constantly letting out low laughter. In the end, the two Wangs were very happy. But what kind of happy thing is never revealed.

Wang suddenly turned his head to look at Xu Xingxia, and said with a little expectation: "Xiazi, are you free?" ”

Xu Xingxia leaned against the door frame and said with a smile: "I'm free, aunt, what's the happy thing, let's hear about it?" ”

Wang walked over and said happily in a low voice: "I asked someone to find a family affair for Dachun, and today was originally a blind date." The girl's home is from Ningxia City, and she was delayed for a while on the road, and she arrived at night. I've been waiting at home for a day, and I thought the other party wasn't coming. No, please go over and take a look. ”

Xu Xingxia smiled, hugged his fists and said, "It turned out to be a blind date, congratulations, congratulations." ”

Wang said a little embarrassed: "If you are free, come and help take a look." Among our relatives, you have the greatest ability and the most knowledge, so you come to check Dachun. Your aunt has long wanted to marry a good daughter-in-law. ”

Xu Xingxia smiled and said happily: "Okay! But don't mention my name! Otherwise, it's not good to scare others. ”

My aunt hurriedly smiled and said, "I know, I know." You sneak in and take a few looks, and you'll be treated as an outsider. If you think it's okay, give your aunt a nod. If not, shake your head. ”

Xu Xingxia didn't know where the gossip came from, but he was actually interested in other people's blind dates. Da Chun and he are cousins, and the two have played since childhood, Xu Xingxia is still a little concerned about his marriage. It just so happened that Niuniu was also going to see the excitement, so Xu Xingxia picked up Niuniu on her back and followed behind Wang. The two families are not far apart, and after a while, the Liu family arrived.

The artisan households in Weizhenbao have received a lot of wages from Xu Xingxia, and the lives of each artisan household have improved. Liu Guangliang's family is the first to get the moon near the water, and the improvement is naturally the greatest. No, inside the main house, there are actually three tung oil lamps lit to shine on the main house from three different corners, which is quite a luxurious behavior.

Xu Xingxia stood at the door and looked inside, and found that on the side of the main house, there were two strange men and two strange women, and among the four, there was a girl who looked only fifteen or sixteen years old, with her head down, and she looked very ashamed. It seems that this girl is the object of the blind date. From the side, it's quite robust.

In fact, the people's thinking at that time was still very feudal, and ordinary people would not bring the girl over directly like this. People come and go, and it's all the work of a matchmaker. Many brides and grooms meet for the first time on candlelight nights in the cave room. Only the rules of the military households are different. The military households basically solve the problems internally, and after the girl marries, she also has to work. Hence whether health is important.

At that time, the criteria for military households to choose daughters-in-law were basically like this: it doesn't matter whether there is culture or not, the key is that the skeleton should be large, the chest should be big, and the buttocks should be big. These are all things that you have to see with your own eyes. Otherwise, it is just a matter of letting your matchmaker say that others are not at ease.

Xu Xingxia secretly watched for a while, and felt that the girl and Da Chun were still full of foils, and although their appearance was not good, they were also decent. The body should also be healthy. As for the general nutritional deficiencies, there are dishes in the past, that's for sure. After getting married, as long as you eat better, your face will naturally be rosy. Seeing this, Xu Xingxia nodded to his aunt Wang, saying that he had passed the level.

Now that the task has been completed, Xu Xingxia will also go home. He put Niu Niu around his neck and came back slowly. The moonlight was good tonight, and the silver moonlight sprinkled on the ground of Fort Weizhen seemed to be coated with a layer of silver light. may be because Da Chun's marriage is about to be resolved, Xu Xingxia is also in a good mood, and when he walks, he feels that the soles of his feet are also fluttering, and he is full of energy.

Niu Niu suddenly said: "Big brother, there is a teahouse in front." ”

Xu Xingxia looked up, and sure enough, there was indeed a newly opened teahouse in front of him. Next to it is Wang Qinian's grocery store. When he passed by the teahouse just now, the door of the teahouse was closed. However, at this time, a crack opened in the door of the teahouse, and a light came out of it. Does the teahouse do business at night? It didn't look very similar, and there was no one at the door.

Niuniu suddenly said again: "She doesn't have Sister Zhu in the teahouse who is beautiful." ”

Xu Xingxia said casually: "Which Sister Azhu?" ”

Niu Niu said: "It's ......"

She suddenly shouted loudly: "Sister Azhu! The one in front is Sister Azhu! ”

Xu Xingxia subconsciously looked at the door of the teahouse. It turned out that a slender woman was coming out of the teahouse and splashing water outside. Through the hazy moonlight and the bright light from the teahouse, Xu Xingxia vaguely saw that it was a rather beautiful woman. Her age should be about fifteen or sixteen years old, with a slender and slender figure, simple and simple clothes, and a bit of an unearthly feeling under the moonlight.

After taking a few steps closer, Xu Xingxia saw more clearly. This woman called Sister Azhu has delicate and picturesque eyebrows, soft and gentle, bright and dazzling. Her calm demeanor in her gestures conceals everyone's demeanor, and she doesn't seem to be from an ordinary woman's background. Vaguely, she also has some special temperament. The darkness around her seemed to shrink slightly because of her appearance. Her waterfall-like green silk pulled a simple bun, and a few strands of hair were blown by the night wind, brushing her forehead, and in the night, it added a bit of confusion.

However, what is a little strange is that Xu Xingxia's thoughts after seeing the beauty are not how to go up and talk, how to find opportunities to get close to the other party, and how to seduce the other party. He just felt a little abnormal, how could such a beautiful girl appear here in Fort Weizhen? What is the secret behind this teahouse?

Even he felt that the conspiracy theories in his mind were indeed too profound. However, this teahouse is indeed a bit eccentric. If the owner of the teahouse is a Taoist named Tang Chen, and there is such a young and beautiful girl beside him, Xu Xingxia has to maliciously slander the other party. In recent years, there are more and more people who disrespect the old, do not abide by the rules and precepts, and sell dog meat on the head of a sheep.

The woman also seemed to recognize Niuniu, smiled gracefully, and said generously: "Niuniu, it turned out to be you." ”

Niuniu seemed to be very familiar with Miss Azhu, she sat on Xu Xingxia's neck, pointed at Xu Xingxia and said, "Sister Azhu, he is my brother." ”

Xu Xingxia smiled slightly, arched his hand to Miss Azhu, and said indifferently: "I'm sorry, Miss Tangtu, under Xu Xingxia." ”

Miss Azhu was slightly stunned, her bright eyes flashed a few times, and she said slowly: "It turns out that you are Xu Xingxia." ”

Xu Xingxia said a little strangely: "The girl has heard of the name below? ”

Miss Azhu nodded gently, her eyes were bright, just like the stars in the sky, and naturally there was a kind of elegant elegance that made people feel comfortable. She said lightly: "The little girl has just arrived, and Xu Baihu's name is already familiar. ”

Xu Xingxia smiled, nodded and said, "I see, Miss Azhu is smiling." By the way, Miss Azhu, how did you end up at our Fort Will? It doesn't look like you're from our Ningxia Town! Are you from far away? ”

Miss Azhu smiled and said: "It's not very far, the little girl was originally from the capital, followed the master to travel all over the world, just passed Weizhen Fort, heard about Xu Baihu's heroic deeds, and stayed." The master is going to compile Xu Baihu's heroic deeds into a commentary and spread it all over the north and south of the river for the world to admire. ”

Xu Xingxia laughed, shook his head and said, "Miss Azhu, you are laughing, I have such a little deed, where is it worth such a big fight by the Taoist chief?" It's over, it's over. ”

Miss Azhu pursed her lips and smiled lightly, and said with a bright eye: "The military households of Weizhen Fort all say that Xu Baihu has killed more Tartars in a month than Weizhen Fort has killed in the past thirty years. Isn't such a deed worthy of being recited by the world? Xu Baihu will never tell the little woman, those military households all say that they are lying, right? ”

Xu Xingxia shook his head and said with a smile: "They didn't lie. It's just, why bother? There are so many Taoist leaders, there is really no need. By the way, Miss Azhu, in which famous mountain and river did the Taoist chief practice? In which Taoist temple is the order? ”

Miss Azhu shook her head and said with a smile: "I'm sorry, the master's matter, please ask Xu Baihu to ask him in person." The little woman was just his nominal disciple, and she didn't dare to say anything. The master is usually in the teahouse during the day, and Xu Baihu may as well come over to ask for advice as long as he has time. ”

Xu Xingxia could feel that this girl named Azhu was not an ordinary person in her words and conversations. It can be inferred from this that her master is definitely not an ordinary person. Her words must also be a pretext. However, since the other party refused to tell the truth, he had no intention of asking. There are some things that are not necessary to ask too clearly.

Miss Azhu just came out to pour water, and at this moment the water in the wooden basin had been poured out, and she was only holding an empty wooden basin in her hand. Under the moonlight, she stood pretty, as if she was an orchid in the empty valley, fresh and elegant, and like clear water and blue lotus, spotless. However, when I felt it carefully, I couldn't feel her lonely self-appreciation, and she rejected people thousands of miles away. Her gentleness, her grace, and her brightness all give people a very comfortable feeling. This is indeed a very contradictory feeling, but it is also real.

Xu Xingxia said with a smile: "Since this is the case, I will visit the door in the future and ask the Taoist chief for advice in person." Miss Azhu, it's late at night, don't disturb your rest, please! ”

Miss Azhu bent down slightly, as if she had made a standard blessing ceremony, and said warmly: "Xu Baihu, please." ”

Xu Xingxia nodded and went with Niuniu. In his heart, he had a very strong question, what is the origin of this Azhu girl? The Wanfu gift she gave just now almost shows that she must be from a big family. The average small jasper really doesn't have such an upbringing. What is she going to do when she stays in Fort Willytown? Also, what is the origin of that Tang Chen Dao Chief? What to do in Fort Wytown?

Miss Azhu quietly looked at Xu Xingxia from behind, her bright eyes almost narrowed into a thin line. In her heart, she also had a very strong question. Is this person in front of him Xu Xingxia, who frightened the Tartars? He doesn't look vicious at all! Wang Qinian's secret recital, is it true? How can a guy with such perverted archery skills play eagle and catch chicks with a group of little dolls? What a freak!
