Chapter 533: Beware of Catching a Cold
In the study, Xu Hao watched Xiangyu wipe the wound on Cuiliu's knee with distress, and under the stimulation of Yin Hong's wound, the scene just now echoed repeatedly in his mind.
At that time, the snowflakes were accompanied by the howling wind, and the helpless horror of the green willow that suddenly appeared deeply pierced his heart, and he immediately sneered and commanded.
Qianshoutang, the Wang family made up her mind to settle on the family affairs, so that she could be regarded as two relatives who were close to each other, and she had already had enough. The daughter-in-law Xu Cuitao is married to the eldest princess, a widow who has died in the family, and in addition to being a princess, her political status can be said to be gone.
The concubine Xu Hai married the daughter of a small family, and the concubine Xu Cuiyun married the husband of a small family. And back then, it was clear that she was the daughter of Houmen, and the two younger siblings were countrymen, so could they swallow this breath after a long time?
At this time, Mu Ningxue was not in a hurry, and did not hesitate to run a big circle outside with Zhu Qiaoqiao, sweating profusely, just to buy time for Cuiliu.
Seeing that Wang smiled and nodded slowly, Mu Ningxue sighed, knowing that this matter was irreparable, and her husband would only use more intense and unscrupulous means when he knew that opposing it in person would only be ridiculed.
The old lady obviously hesitated, and her grandson did not rush to oppose Cuiliu at the first time, which seemed very unusual.
The atmosphere in the room was a little weird for a while, and the people in the second room knew that this pass must not be happy, at least if someone did not nod in agreement.
However, Xu Cuiyun has always been jealous of her sister's favored status at home, obviously not married but not pointed out by thousands of husbands, but the food and clothing are becoming more and more exquisite, and the daily life is chic and chic, and a meal is even worth the expenses of her family for three days.
Besides, what's wrong with marrying the Gui family? Compared with her wretched husband, Xu Cuiyun is really envious of Cuiliu's good life, Guitang must be good-looking, talented. At the moment, he took the initiative to untie a mutton fat Baifu serial pendant from his body. Both hands were handed to Mrs. Gui.
"This is something that my sister often wears, I gave it to me on my birthday, so I will transfer it to Brother Gui today, and it should be a matter of marriage."
Mrs. Gui hurriedly got up and took it with both hands, waved her son over, and Gui Tang heard that she was going to marry the charming fourth lady to herself, and she was overjoyed.
Mrs. Xia knew that Mrs. Gui's jewelry was almost pawned, and there was no one on her body that she could handle, so she smiled kindly: "There is no more gift from others and will not return, I will return the gift on behalf of Mrs. Gui." It's also a little bit of heart for my niece. β
After speaking, he took a pair of pearl lotus flowers from his head and handed them to Xu Cuiyun, "Send Sister Ling to pay a salute." The meaning of this is naturally self-evident, it can be regarded as the Xia family agreeing to marry two daughters and one husband.
Xiao Shi, who knew his son Mo Ruomu, smiled reluctantly, and didn't say anything, and the same was true for the others. Satisfied, Mrs. Gui saw that the hour was almost up, and said goodbye with a smile.
After sending off the two wives and Guitang, Zhu Qiaoqiao and the others couldn't wait to go to the study, but no one was there. Immediately went straight to the plum blossom forest together, and as soon as they entered the courtyard, they saw Xu Hao and Cuiliu sitting in the pavilion, enjoying the snow and cooking tea.
Xu Cuiliu did not have the slightest panic on her face. said: "I just picked some plum blossom snow, everyone came to taste, how is it?" β
None of the women are impatient people, since his brother and sister are interested in playing a sharp game. Then they all suppressed the mundane thoughts in their stomachs unhurriedly.
The plum blossoms are pressed by the snow, and the red plum trees are mixed with the white plum trees, and the white snow is more and more charming. The fragrance of tea is also mixed with the dark fragrance of plum blossoms.
"This is a kind of ink tea, obtained from Anhui Xiaotaoyuan, and it tastes very good, but I haven't tasted it yet." Xu Cuiliu fried water on the bamboo stove with her own hands, brewed the tea leaves, its color was slightly black, everyone picked up the tea cup and tasted it carefully, the fragrance was really different.
Xu Cuitao said: "Qingzhu sencha, the tea of the ancients was fried, and now it is brewed, and it is better to fry than to brew." β
Zhong Kegu said: "Frying has the taste of frying. Su Shi's "fish eyes have passed the sound of crab eyes, and tea tripods have made flies chirping", probably there is a reason why tea replaces sencha, that is, when sencha was made in the Tang and Song dynasties, after all, the tea leaves should be good, otherwise there will be some differences in taste. β
Yuan didn't know much about the tea ceremony, and said: "I love Yunwu tea the most, and this tea is as thin as a hair, and the taste is also fragrant." β
Zhong Kegu said: "The clouds and mist on the rooftop are originally expensive. β
Mu Ningxue said with a smile: "Yunwu tea is from Anhui and not from Tiantai, but I don't know much about this detail." β
Zhu Qiaoqiao secretly looked at Xu Hao's expression, and said casually: "The Fujian tea cakes that Hongye sent me, I drink them very well." β
Zhong Kegu immediately said: "Tea cakes also have charm, Dongpo Shiyun 'alone with a small moon in the sky, to try the second spring in the world', it can be seen that the ancients also used tea cakes." β
Mu Ningxue said: "This refers to Pu'er tea, this tea is not good in the end, and it is not worthy of the second spring." The second spring is in Huishan, and I have eaten it a few times. The first cold spring is in Zhenjiang, and last time Hao'er's friend sent a few jars, which smelled very fragrant, but unfortunately there were small insects, and he didn't let me eat them. β
Zhong Kegu said: "That's called boxing insects, it's okay, even Mingquan has to be eaten by Chen Jiusheng after the insects." β
Xu Hao opened his mouth and said: "That's still insects that can be seen by the naked eye, hundreds of millions of them are invisible to the naked eye, even if you drink live water, you have to check carefully, not to mention the stagnant water that has been stored for several years?" Illness comes from the mouth, and many people who get a sudden illness and die suddenly for no reason are due to eating dirty water or unclean food, and there is a price for being vassal. β
Zhong Kegu was taken aback, and the letter was doubtful and debated, but Xu Hao was not in the mood, and waved his hand and said: "Facts speak louder than words, comparing the population mortality rate of our family and other families over the years, it is clear at a glance." β
Zhong Kegu was stunned, it is indeed rare for a young person to die of illness at a young age, not for nothing, when compared to other people's families, it is indeed a lot less, because many outsiders say that the feng shui of the Xu family is good.
Xu Hao didn't want to explain the common sense of hygiene such as regular disinfection, washing hands before meals, not drinking cold water, etc., which is well known in Liaodong and various new schools.
Ordinary people, except for some deep-rooted habits of life, are easily acceptable.
On the contrary, the more cultured people are, the more stubbornly they insist on the ancients, take tea as an example, take the water from the ten famous springs, pay attention to storing it for two or three years before drinking, no insects are not authentic, isn't this looking for death?
In fact, the snow is not clean. But fortunately, there is no pollution in this era, and it is okay to drink it once or twice once or twice after boiling, in fact, the taste depends on the mood of the person at the time, and the best tea is also the best.
At this moment, Xu Hai hurriedly walked in and shouted: "Brother, the loyal Boru Gong was impeached by the imperial historian Chen Ying for violating the ancestral system because he passed through Changsha and did not ask the king of the valley, and now Jinyiwei has been locked up in prison. The prefect of Suzhou, Lord Gu, was implicated and immediately dismissed. Miss Gu fainted after hearing the news, and. β
"Tell me what else." Mu Ningxue was the first to ask, that Gu Hongyun is still living at home, and she couldn't go home for reunion during the Chinese New Year, and her sweetheart was also locked up in Shuntian Mansion, but she didn't expect the father of the lover to go to prison again.
Xu Hai sighed: "The master of the Gui family also violated the laws of the ancestral system because he returned to Beijing with Duke Ru, and he is now in prison. Mrs. Gui's mother and son, who had just returned, were placed under house arrest. Regardless of whether Lord Gui is alive or dead, I heard that the whole family will be slaughtered in the Guangxi River. β
As soon as these words came out, everyone was stunned, and they all stared at Xu Hao in disbelief, even if Mrs. Gui rashly said the words of asking for marriage. If you are angry, you will not start this big prison and implicate many innocents, right?
Xu Hao said innocently: "You think too highly of me, in a short period of time, I may instruct the official to impeach the minister, will the saint be so obedient?" β
The women immediately breathed a sigh of relief. It's really unlikely, how long has it been? Unexpectedly, Xu Hao's words made them all stunned.
"But the Gui family was indeed added by me temporarily, and Chen Ying originally came to ask me what I meant. GΓΌnta is not on the list. β
Zhu Qiaoqiao glared at him fiercely and said angrily: "Don't forget, that's my mother clan, why is it so ruthless?" Besides, people are obviously unintentional. β
Xu Hao smiled very sinisterly, and said leisurely: "Then I don't care, whoever is engaged to Cuiliu in the future will be unlucky immediately." Although this is a means to harm others and not to ourselves, who told me and Cuiliu to like it very much, didn't it? β
Everyone turned to look at Xu Cuiliu speechlessly, at this moment, the four girls of the Xu family smiled like flowers, like a fox spirit who stole a hen!
Zhu Qiaoqiao asked viciously, "What's going on?" β
Xu Hao glanced at her and didn't speak, in fact, the matter is very simple, after the Battle of Jingjing, the imperial court must hold high the banner of saluting the vassal kings of various places, and secretly slowly cut the vassal little by little.
This is the despicable side of politics, after demoting the rebellious king of Qi to a commoner, the imperial court concentrated on dealing with the military power of the Qin and Jin princes, and respected the other vassal kings with great fanfare in public opinion to calm the hearts of the people.
Ru Yu was very unlucky, and sent his son Ru Jian to be a son-in-law and build a county lord's mansion in Chang'an. A few years ago, the imperial court publicly reprimanded Zhu Shangbing, the king of Qin, for being very arrogant when he saw the envoys of the court, and arrested the officials of the palace.
At that time, Zhu Shangbing was obviously Zhu Yunwen's sworn friend, his father died for a strange reason, but the battle of Jingyan was self-respecting, Zhu Gaochi remembered this matter, even if it was to help one side, no one would help Obviously, this is very problematic, so he was reprimanded very unceremoniously, and after returning to Chang'an, he was naturally placed under house arrest.
Who let the local rebellion in the early years of Hongxi, Zhu Shangbing personally led troops to suppress it, and the local soldiers and horses were very obedient.
Ru Yu saw the intention of the imperial court, and his son was the guest of honor of the palace, just to spy on the Qin palace nearby. In the local area, I heard that the king of the valley levied taxes on a large scale and formed a party for personal gain, so he deliberately did not visit the palace of the king of the valley when he returned to Beijing.
When he came back, it happened that Zhu Gaosui was ordered to go on patrol, and he thought he was smart and did not see him off. And Zhu Gaosui took a night in the sauna in Yongcui Building, but he was thrown out of the sauna by Zhu Gaochi in disguise to be punished, and he was sulking in his stomach, and he had the same intention of killing chickens and monkeys as King Gu.
Hong Xichao did not have three dukes, Ru Yu's actual status was equivalent to one of the three dukes, and he was the head of the civil officials who were justifiable, if he could be killed, he would naturally have a great increase in his prestige.
Therefore, Ru Yu first committed the crime of 'not sending King Zhao', and was about to be sent back to his hometown as soon as he returned to Beijing, and before he could leave, Chen Ying impeached him for 'not giving away from King Gu', and the punishment for the two crimes was increased by one degree.
Anyway, that's the case, Xu Hao doesn't know much about political things, that's what he guesses, and there are countless absurd and absurd things in history, and the real cause and effect of countless historical events are hidden behind the scenes, so you can't ask the parties, what do you think?
Ru Yu's matter has nothing to do with Xu Hao at all, but his brother-in-law Gu Zhifu was promoted by him behind the scenes, and he took the opportunity to fall into the ground, as for Gui Da, who let Mrs. Gui have nothing to do.
Xu Hao is doing these immoral things now, it can be said that he has no guilt at all, just like Xiangyu dissected the living in order to cure the disease and save people.
What he was thinking about now was to find out how much Zhu Qiaoqiao would react to this matter, if he was strongly dissatisfied and intervened in anger.
Xu Hao absolutely can't tolerate the people around him daring to provoke him, because Chen Yu, the princess of Annan, entered Beijing without consent, even if she helped him in Shuntian Mansion, he was mercilessly sent back to Annan, and she is still under house arrest.
Xu Hao did not even rule out the possibility of waiting for his son to become the lord of Annan and immediately kill Chen Yu. If a man doesn't have the cold-heartedness and the courage to make decisions, then don't try to reach the pinnacle of power.
Who dares to guarantee that Chen Yu or Zhu Qiaoqiao, who are far away from men, will not be involved with other men due to loneliness and other reasons? Then gave birth to a son with someone else, and opened the Xu family's version of the wealthy grievances.
Suddenly, Xu Hao took off his mink cloak, gently draped it on Zhu Qiaoqiao's body, and said with concern: "It's too cold, be careful of catching a cold." (To be continued......)
