Chapter 876: Morning Departure
These days, Yang Fan is busy.
Manage the daily affairs of the barracks, inspect the palace guards, go to the secret stronghold of the "Jihetang", sit down and discuss with the old men of the "Tianqi Pavilion", meet with the Shangguan family and other factions in Beijing, and maintain the necessary contacts with the Zhang brothers and Wu Sansi.
Speaking of which, during this period of time, he was busier than when he first formed a thousand horses, but most of the time he could go back to the house to rest, but even if he returned to the house, the affairs he needed to deal with were one after another, and he often waited until the moon rose to the willows, so that he could put out the candle and return to Xiaoman or Anu to rest.
It's getting late today, and Yang Fan is still in the study.
There is a lamp lit on the table, with white gauze as a cover, and a green plum branch on the cover, which is very elegant.
There are beauties under the lamp, charming like flower shadows.
Sitting opposite Yang Fan is Gu Zhuting, who no longer shoulders any tasks these days, and only accompanies Xiaoman and Anu in the back house. Therefore, the clothes and costumes have also been changed with Anu, a lake silk shirt, moon white, light embroidery pattern, fine workmanship, exquisite materials.
It is easy to go from thrift to luxury, and it is difficult to go from luxury to thrift. The ancient girl had never worn such expensive clothes before, and when she first put on such soft, close-fitting and comfortable lake silk clothes, she was still a little uncomfortable, but now if she changed back into coarse cloth clothes, her delicate skin would feel uncomfortable.
I don't know if it's because I have nothing to do in the back house all day, so I have the time and mood to draw my eyebrows and lips, or if I deliberately dressed up before coming to see Yang Fan tonight, Gu Zhuting, who was sitting under the lamp, looked extraordinarily charming.
The light clothes in the summer are thin, and the soft and close-fitting clothing makes the lines of her body gentle and smooth, the white and pure skin is as rich and watery as a freshly peeled perfume pear, and the long black and shiny hair is pulled into a bun, and a hairpin is a blue hairpin. It shows a unique charm.
That day, the old man misunderstood the relationship between Yang Fan and his daughter, and when Gu Zhuting figured out what his father was thinking, he was really ashamed and angry. It's just that her mind was originally like a seed buried in fertile soil, originally buried deeply, and her own heart knows it, but now it is said by her father, especially her parents not only do not object, but also have the meaning of being happy to see it happen, which is like a spring flower. The permafrost is civilized, and fresh air penetrates into it, allowing that seed to sprout quietly.
Originally, it was just an occasional reverie, but now this thought is getting more and more lingering, especially when Anu is pregnant. Yang Fan often comes here to stay and take care of the lady. Gu Zhuting can often see the two of them looking happy and happy before the moon. I was even more envious in my heart.
Yang Fan summoned her to meet her tonight. Gu Zhuting knew that it was impossible to involve personal affairs, but her heart was still a little flustered. Aiqing is an inevitable part of life for both men and women, and the longer it is depressed, the more difficult it is to contain once it is triggered.
Yang Fan looked at her. Maybe it's the sultry summer night, her tender cheeks are red, and she looks good. I can't tell that she was a female killer who took someone's life at any time before.
Yang Fan hesitated for a moment before he said, "I listened to Gu Zhang." In the past, Xie You, the governor of Qianzhou, killed King Cao in order to curry favor with him, and feared retaliation, so he stayed in a high-rise building at night, with layers of guards outside, a huge bed built-in, and dozens of concubines surrounded by assassins. The prince of Cao Wang spent a lot of money to hire you to go, go up to the tall building at night, pick off his head, the sky was bright, and people inside and outside found his body in a different place. ”
Gu Zhuting was slightly surprised, and he didn't know why he mentioned this matter, so he said, "Yes!" That was fourteen years ago, when the slave had just been transferred to the 'Succession Hall' to work, and the suzerain, in order to save money for the sake of acting, accepted a heavy amount of money from the prince of Cao Wang, and ordered the slave to assassinate Xie You. At that time, the person who went with him was not the only one in the slave family, but the slave was light and soft, so the others responded outside and acted by the slave. ”
Yang Fan stroked his palm and said: "Cardamom is more than thirteen, it is really remarkable to be able to do such a big thing." ”
Gu Zhuting was praised by him, her pretty face turned even redder, and she lowered her head lightly and said, "Why did Ah Lang mention this?" ”
Yang Fan sighed and said, "It's not a secret, I have a big matter now, and I need a few people to do it first." I wanted to let a few of your brothers go, but your father said that your brothers are not as good as you in terms of stealth and concealment. In fact, it should be enough to let a few brothers go to this matter, but the stakes are very high, if there is a master of your rank, it will be foolproof, so ...... I'm afraid I'm going to lose my words. ”
Gu Zhuting was stunned and said in surprise: "Gaffe? ”
Yang Fan said: "Yes! I said that as long as you stay in the back house, you will not be asked to show your face again. ”
Gu Zhuting suddenly said: "Since the situation requires it, I am willing to serve Ah Lang!" Go to the soup and go to the fire, don't give up! ”
Yang Fan hurriedly waved his hand and smiled: "It's not that serious, let you go this time, it's definitely not murder." Officialdom has its own rules in officialdom, not blindly killing people can solve the problem, and killing can only be effective if you kill within the rules of officialdom, you must know that killing is not the goal, winning is the goal! ”
Gu Zhuting said: "Yes! Everything is exactly what Alang commands! ”
Yang Fan said: "Okay! Then I will leave this matter to you, with the help of your brothers. ”
Yang Fan explained the matter to Gu Zhuting, Gu Zhuting thought about it, and said worriedly: "If Ah Lang uses such means, will it provoke Shen Mu to be angry, once a situation of endless death is formed, the slave family is worried about ......"
Yang Fan smiled and said, "When I faced Jiang Gongzi, Anu was worried that I would be vulnerable. Now that Xianzong is in my hands, I am facing Shen Mu, and you are worried that I am vulnerable. Is it the sutra or the hidden sect strong, or is it ...... Do you think I'm stupid? ”
Gu Zhuting sighed softly in her heart: "People are not worried about your success or failure, but they are just chaotic." But he said: "How dare a slave look down on Ah Lang, but in this way, I am afraid that it will annoy Shen Mu, and it is not easy to reconcile, Ah Lang must be prepared." ”
Yang Fan said: "I understand! But you have to know that this is a war, a war involving all aspects of officialdom and shopping malls. Whether it is officialdom or a shopping mall, it is a place that is ever-changing and unpredictable, and if you are not careful, you will be covered out. Without extraordinary courage, without the courage to die and survive, without alertness and decisive means, defeat is inevitable.
Be bold, be careful, be soft on the outside, and be rigid on the inside. You can't blindly show weakness, when you should be bold, you will be bold and courageous, and you can seize the opportunity. Now that the hidden sect has long wanted Shu and ambition breeds, if they know my ability and feel my toughness and resoluteness, they will sit down and talk to me! These applications. It's just a matter of one mind. ”
Gu Zhuting thought about it sideways, the light reflected on her face, and she looked very good. After thinking for a moment, Gu Zhuting pursed her lips lightly and laughed: "Yes!" The slave family obeys Alang's orders! ”
Yang Fan said curiously: "What are you laughing at?" ”
Gu Zhuting's eyes rolled and said: "The slave family thought of Ah Lang taking the King of Luling back to Beijing, Ah Lang is brave, resourceful, and full of scheming, and he has made all kinds of assassins and killers go around. With this wisdom, he can naturally cope with the current situation, but the slave family is worried in vain. ”
Yang Fan couldn't help laughing when he heard it, how could he know why Gu Zhuting was laughing. But it was because he found that he was very serious about explaining to her. In fact, she is just a subordinate of Yang Fan, just do what she is told to do, why let her understand? She felt that Ah Lang's patient explanation didn't seem to treat her as a subordinate, so she was happy.
"Alang. When do I depart? ”
"Tomorrow morning!"
"Good! Nanu went back and prepared first, Alang...... These days are too hard. Take care too! ”
After saying this, it shouldn't have been said by a subordinate. But if she had already shown her affection slightly, Gu Zhuting slipped out like a rabbit stared at by an eagle.
Yang Fan looked at her panicked and fled, and sighed softly.
The ancient girl has a stronger and stronger affection for him, and he can't notice it unless he is an idiot, but the beautiful wife and concubine at home have made him satisfied. I really have no intention of expanding the "harem", so that in the face of the more and more obvious wishes of the ancient girl, there is a feeling of "there is a true meaning in this, and I have forgotten to argue".
※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※
That night. Yang Fan slept in the small man's room, and a son, a daughter, and two naughty bags were sent to the nurse in advance. Now the little guy is used to the rule that when his father wants to sleep in his mother's room, he has to "abdicate and make way for Xian".
Half a night of wind and rain, several degrees lingering, at dawn, Yang Fan got up, pushed the window to see, only to see the world as blue as washing, as soon as the window was opened, the fresh and cool breath came to the face, the green leaves and saffron under the window were wet, bright green and bright red, and couldn't help but be surprised: "Did it rain last night?" ”
Xiao Man tugged at the thin jacket, covered his snow-white crisp breasts, and said lazily: "You sleep like a dead pig, and the thunder is so loud in the middle of the night, haven't you heard it?" ”
Yang Fan said with a smile: "I really didn't hear it, did it thunder last night?" ”
Xiao Man glanced at him coquettishly, turned over and threw a smooth jade back to him, and said, "Close the window, people have to sleep for a while." ”
"Hmm!"
Yang Fan looked up at the sky and said, "It's gloomy, I'm afraid I'm going to go down for a while, it's cool but it's cool, I'm afraid the road is difficult." ”
Xiao Man turned around and said, "What, are you going back to the barracks today?" ”
Yang Fan said: "I won't go to the barracks, I'll go to the Criminal Department, and I asked Chen Langzhong to talk about something before." After that, I'll go around the palace and I'll be back. You go back to sleep. ”
Yang Fan closed the window, dressed neatly and walked out, Xiaoman usually has to get up early to practice, but today is a rainy day, and he was tossed by Lang Jun last night, he was really a little lazy, he yawned and wanted to sleep for a while, and as soon as the drowsiness swelled up, he heard his son's loud voice shouting outside: "Daddy!" It's raining, the water is overflowing the pool, toads...... The toads have jumped on the shore, and my father has taken me to catch them. ”
Yang Fan's voice said: "Ouch my baby, Daddy still has things to do, can I accompany you to catch toads, go to your mother, your mother is the best at catching toads, catch a quasi." ”
"Mother!" Yang Nianzu immediately roared confidently.
"This scoundrel! Sincerely, don't let people sleep! Xiaoman sat up in a panic, grabbed his clothes and put them on, shouting while putting them on: "Come on, come on, my mother will be here soon, don't come in, go find a can, let's pretend to be a toad in a while......"
