Chapter 240 Who Says Men Are Not as Good as Mothers (5000-word chapter)
Ximenbei's book is very popular in a small circle.

Several of his works were even selected into the academy as teaching materials for juren.

Zheng Xiu glanced at the writing on the brocade box in the basket.

Ok?
"Jiang Gaoyi's wife is also a loyal reader of Ximenbei, and gave him a sapphire paperweight."

"Can I go in and wait for Mr. Ximen to return?"

Although Zheng Xiu became a prince, he did not overwhelm others with power.

The book boy became worried when he heard the words: "But the teacher goes out to collect materials, the shortest is three to five days, and the longest is a few months... I am afraid that the prince will not be able to wait for the teacher."

"It's okay, I'll go in and take a look."

As Zheng Xiu said, he stepped forward, and the young book boy made a crying dolphin sound: "My lord, absolutely not, absolutely not, the teacher will scold you to death when you come back!"

It seems that Ximen sadly ordered no one to enter his study, but the one who came today is the prince of the current dynasty, and the book boy's status is low, so he can't stop him, that's why it's so embarrassing.

"In that case." Zheng Xiu stopped and walked out of the door: "My king will come to visit another day."

As soon as he stepped out of the threshold, Zheng Xiu blew a whistle, Qing Shisan was invited, and silently reached out and tapped the boy's neck, knocking down the boy who was helpless.

After Qing Shisan put down the book boy, he blew out a puff of smoke, which instantly enveloped the courtyard, and the wisps of smoke were like hands, closing the courtyard door tightly.

"My lord, this is..." Qing Shisan put down the book boy, blowing smoke to release obstacles, and shut the courtyard door tightly. This set of movements is so skillful that it makes people feel distressed, and it is done in one go.Then he frowned and said, "Trespassing on private houses?"

Zheng Xiu squinted his eyes and smiled: "Is there any king in the world?"

Qing Shisan was speechless: "My lord, your land is in Shuzhou."

"Almost, almost. Don't worry about such details."

Zheng Xiu knew Qing Shisan well, and this Qing criticized the pure-mouthed poor, and if he really wanted to do something exciting, he would surely do it better than anyone else.There was a lock on the door, Zheng Xiu weighed it, and was about to ask Qing Shisan to think of a way, when the latch on the side window was opened from the inside, "the other" Qing Shisan waved to King Chi with a smile: "My lord, this way! "

Zheng Xiu was stunned: "I'm a majestic Chiwang, you let me climb in through the window?"

"Okay! Then Qing will kick the door open!" Standing outside the house, Qing Shisan said and raised his leg.

Zheng Xiu immediately jumped in from the window.

After entering Ximen Bei's study, Qing Shisan had already walked around the room and opened all the windows for ventilation.

"My lord, there is indeed no one inside."

"I know."

Zheng Xiu looked at the inner room, which was elegantly furnished. There were several unnamed paintings hanging on the walls, and many antique objects on the bookshelves. "impression.

This is the "literati". A literati like Mo Jie who only knows how to copy books is too low-level, and he feels like a copycat. If he has a chance another day, he will be a little bit of that kid.

Zheng Xiu thought about it and turned around, but found nothing unusual.There is a long case in the study, on which there are many papers scattered, some stacked in a pile, and the corners of the table are complete with pen, ink, paper and inkstone.Obviously this is where Ximen Bei used to create.

The stack of papers on the table is Ximen Bei's unfinished new book, the title of which is "The Beauty of the Crane's Heart", and Zheng Xiu is trying to read it.

"Ce Xin Juanxiu" is about a "Xiu'e".

Xiu'e grew up in a remote mountain village.

A kind of sweet fruit is planted all over the village. The villagers can't finish it, and many of them rot in the field every year.

One year, a young man named "Earth" decided to help the villagers get rich by selling sweet fruits.He has been away for three years, knows many people, and buys sweet fruits at a price of six Wen per catty.

Xiu'e inadvertently discovered that the young man Dadi earned a difference in the price of sweet fruits, and Dadi's sweet fruits were collected at "seven cents" per catty.So the upright Xiu'e scolded the young man in front of the folks and elders, saying that he was making black money from the folks.

The folks cursed one after another, scolding the young people for not taking money from the folks and elders.

Feeling aggrieved, Dadi quit in a rage and left the village.Seeing that no one cared about the sweet fruits all over the mountains and plains, the villagers scratched their heads. At this time, the kind-hearted Xiu'e bravely stood up and promised to find a way to sell the sweet fruits.It was only after she entered the city that she realized that something was wrong. It turned out that sweet fruits were being grown in the surrounding mountains, and the purchase price of sweet fruits in the city was getting lower and lower. Five cents a catty.

Xiu'e remembered what she had promised to the villagers, so she gritted her teeth and approached the local wealthy businessman.The elderly wealthy businessman Tu Xiu'e is beautiful and proposes to accept Xiu'e as a concubine. Xiu'e gritted her teeth and agreed. Because of Xiu'e's sacrifice, the sweet fruits of the villagers were finally sold for seven coins.

The good times don't last long, and the next year, the sweet fruit floods, and the rich man is not happy, thinking that this is a loss-making business, so he sells Xiu'e to a brothel.Xiu'e washed her face with tears every day in the brothel, but she worked hard to earn money by receiving customers, and always bought sweet fruits from the villagers at the price of seven cents.

A few years later, Young Dadi reunited with Xiu'e in the brothel. After he learned of Xiu'e's tragic story, he wept bitterly, and the two embraced. Young Dadi chose to forgive her on the spot.These years of her ups and downs can be regarded as her going out to experience, and the two finally returned to the simple and simple mountain village, living a life without contention with the world.

……

The time to read always flies by so fast.

Time passed quietly with the sound of turning pages.

"My lord, why are you crying?"

When Qing Shisan's puzzled voice sounded in his ears, Zheng Xiu came back to his senses, stared blankly at the bewildered Qing Pi, and said to himself, "Yeah, why the hell am I crying?"

He touched his face, it was wet and salty, if nothing else, it was tears.

Zheng Xiu put down the stack of drafts in shock, and said in surprise, "Hey, no, why am I crying?!"

There was something wrong with Zheng Xiu's startled and suspicious voice, Qing Shisan picked up the draft in bewilderment, and read it patiently.

While reading, Qing Shisan was wiping tears.

In the end, the two looked at each other: "Why are we crying?"

After a while, a chill emerged, and Zheng Xiu took a few steps back in fright, staring at the draft on the table vigilantly.

Qing Shisan's reaction was similar to Zheng Xiu's.

It stands to reason that the stories written in the book are definitely not sympathetic. Zheng Xiu is not so much empathizing with the stories in it as it is... polluted by the plots in it.

hiss……

After calming down, Qing Shisan looked solemn, staring at the stack of drafts with a murderous look, and said a four-character evaluation: "Extraordinary."

Zheng Xiu also nodded with lingering fear, it seems that this guy's book can no longer be read.

Qing Shisan asked: "My lord, do you suspect that he is...?"

Zheng Xiu smiled wryly: "This king looks like a candle to everyone now."

"My lord, you are ill."

When Qing Shisan heard it, he didn't know that the prince was suspicious, and sighed.

"It's not a bad thing to be cautious."

Qing Shisan understood, and nodded vigorously: "I'll let the brothers keep an eye on it."

This matter was settled in a few words between the master and the servant.

After Zheng Xiu and Qing Shisan left, it took a while for the book boy to wake up staggeringly. When he woke up, he found himself lying on the stone table in the yard and fell asleep.He was so frightened that he looked towards the lock of the study door, and found that the door and window of the study room were closed properly, so he was relieved.

Just like what Zheng Xiu said to Qing Shisan, since the disappearance of "Yezhu", he is indeed a little suspicious now, seeing that everyone looks like a candle.It's just that if Zheng Xiu guessed right at the beginning, Zhu should not dare to approach the imperial city.It is unlikely that Ximen Bei is a candle.

Regardless of whether Ximen Bei is a natural alien or not, the "literati" approach he follows means that what he writes has a strange lethality, and he can calmly mobilize the emotions of Zheng Xiu and Qing Shisan through words. It's a different kind of "scary".

"It is not necessary to use a knife to kill someone."

Later, when Zheng Xiu talked about this incident to Feng Bei, he sighed and sighed: "Literati, painters, chess players, officials, doctors, and some of the top nine schools look gentle and weak, but in fact they have a different kind of horror. Wherever you go, kill people and punish your heart, and while punishing your heart, you can also kill people.”

"Weak... powerless?" Feng Bei heard the words, and slowly put out a question mark: "But half the city collapsed with one punch back then."

Zheng Xiu didn't answer, and said to himself: "The same is true for painters, and there are more changes."

Feng Bei refused to let go: "But you collapsed half of the city with one punch."

"Meow woo woo woo woo woo!"

[Fool, fool, fool! 】

The orange cat smiled and rolled on the ground.

Zheng Xiu reasonably suspected that the orange cat was not completely drunk the night he had dinner with Wei Chen. He remembered that Zheng Xiu called him a silly cat, and now he is trying to get back at him in different ways.

In the initial stage of the official opening of the Disaster Prevention Bureau, the Disaster Prevention Bureau finally managed to operate successfully.As the leader of the Disaster Prevention Bureau, Zheng Xiu has not been idle these days.In addition to practicing swords, teasing cats, stalking phoenixes, and soaking in poison to brush experience, Zheng Xiu read all the secret records left by Weiyang and the Ministry of Secrets from the previous night.

Ye Weiyang didn't leave much useful information, they were all sealed files of the 20-year conspiracy.It is undoubtedly whimsical to find Zhu's hiding place from these secret records.

On the contrary, the secret records accumulated by the Ministry of Secrets over the years brought many surprises to Zheng Xiu.Since the emperor gave Yin Qingqing to him, Yin Qingqing has gradually gotten used to the new identity. Even though her words are still not salty, but from some details, it can be seen that Yin Qingqing's attitude towards Zheng Xiu has changed. change.

She took the initiative to hand over the secret records of the secret department to Zheng Xiu, which contained many lost ancient scrolls and legends, strange things in the mountains and wilds.Zheng Xiu found a speculation about the "source of alien ability" in a secret volume left ten years ago.

As mentioned above, the reason why aliens are born to occupy the gate is because the existence of aliens is between "eternal darkness" and "eternal world".This concept coincides with Zheng Xiu's speculation about "humanoid ghosts".Because of the particularity of aliens, they can use something called "filthy air" in "Eternal Darkness" to evolve "filthy air" into various special abilities.

And everything the "thaumaturgy" practices is nothing more than playing the role of "foreigner".

Restricted by the limitations of the times and horizons, the conjectures on the secret volume are only scratched up, without elaborating on deeper theories.There are many similar secret volumes, and Zheng Xiu spent a few days reading them all in one go, not to mention benefiting a lot, at least he gained a little.

Since the "Raven's sudden death" incident, the sky in the imperial city has been clean for a while.Recently, some people have noticed that there are a few dark red crows hovering in the sky from time to time, stopping between the pavilions and flying arches.

That was Wei Chen's "Blood Crow".

The blood crows are equivalent to Wei Chen's eyes, because the crow-keeper himself is incomplete, he can't spread the blood crows all over the world like the Yezhu back then, but it's not a big problem to put a few of them in the sky to keep an eye on them.

Wei Chen did not hide this. He told Zheng Xiu that 20 years ago, a defective product of a "one-eyed crowman" ran out and went to the desert.Now it is hidden in the "Mirage", the stronghold of the incomplete building in the desert.

And "Mirage" is the housekeeping skill of "Shan Kui", who is best at defensive skills among the top ten incomplete buildings.It can be said that these Weiyang secretly searched for the incomplete building, and even found the trace of the incomplete building in the desert, but they were unable to do anything to the incomplete building, precisely because of the "mirage" of the "Shan Kui"'s protective technique.

Among the top ten of the Incomplete Building, "Snake", "Ye", and "Kong", as well as "Yao" in the past, are now receiving money from the Disaster Prevention Bureau, and they are monks today.The ten chiefs of the incomplete building each have their own strengths, and they have been able to fight Ye Weiyang secretly for many years, which shows that they are not small.

The two sisters, Snake and Ye, will visit from time to time, and go to Chi Wang's mansion to have a meal and connect with each other.During the back and forth, Zheng Xiu also found out the way the twin sisters walked.

The little "snake" in Yingying's grasp followed the method of "God Tune Witch", and the older sister "Ye", who was overwhelmed by the burden, followed the method of "musician".

Now there are countless strange people around Zheng Xiu, far stronger than the "Zheng Clan" at the beginning. Incomplete Building, Ye Weiyang's old department, and the Zheng Clan Brotherhood, the three combined to create a new behemoth called "Eternal Darkness Disaster Prevention and Control Bureau". .Zheng Xiu is confident that even if Zhu lived for a thousand years, as long as he still hides, it means that there is something in the imperial city that makes him afraid. .

A few days later.

Ximenbei, who went out to collect materials, has not yet returned. Zheng Xiu was stared at and ignored the matter for the time being.

Another wild alien who lived in the city——[Credit Knife Man] Sun Erming, a poor man who was stuck on Chi Wang's cultivation for a long time and couldn't get an inch. Zheng Xiu took the time to meet him.

When Zheng Xiu found Sun Erming, he was hiding in the Dali Temple with all his body dirty, homeless, and eating leftovers from Xiangmanlou.Even so, these are the most expensive dishes in Xiangmanlou, and Sun Erming eats them with almost no chopsticks.

Sun Erming had never shown any particularly toughness in front of Zheng Xiu, especially not toughness.But Zheng Xiu, based on the idea of ​​"never underestimate any stranger", cast an olive branch on Sun Erming: "Have you heard about the Disaster Prevention Bureau?"

Sun Erming nodded blankly, the dog skin plaster was still stuck on his face.

Zheng Xiu said with a smile: "As long as you are willing, the position of the 'pillar' is yours, and prosperity and wealth are at your fingertips."

The young credit knife man was hesitating and didn't immediately agree.

His promotion is stuck at Zheng Xiu's place, and his future is bleak. He has been waiting for the "divination" to come true, but Zheng Xiu's side can't come true. It's hard.

Zheng Xiu was not in a hurry, not long after leaving Sun Erming, at the beginning of August, Lu Zhen's "child-seeking case" finally came to fruition.

It was a sunny afternoon, after lunch, Zheng Xiu sneakily waved to Fengbei, Fengbei understood, and the two went into the room.

Zheng Xiu took off his shirt, revealing his increasingly muscular upper body.

"Shut up, don't do anything else, shouldn't it matter?" Zheng Xiu persuaded earnestly: "Look, the king of Japan has a lot of work recently, with heavy shoulders, back pain, and overwork. If the king is tired, it won't work here. It won't work there, and the future will be miserable...it's you too!"

Fengbei was kind-hearted, even though he still had pimples in his heart and hesitated a bit, he still agreed.

Zheng Xiu was lying on his stomach, and Feng Bei rode on Zheng Xiu's body, pressing Zheng Xiu's shoulders and back lightly with both hands.

"Madam's method is as good as ever."

While Zheng Xiu was enjoying Fengbei's health care, Chang Shihui lit up untimely.

Zheng Xiu looked at the notification of the call and connected.

"It's not good, it's not good, it's not good!"

As soon as the phone was connected, Xi'er was greeted with an opening lightning strike. She held Chang Shie in panic and shouted:
"Little Crab, Little Crab,"

"He's pregnant!"

On the other side of Chang Shihua, apart from Xi'er's voice, there are also the weak and helpless crying of the young man, and Jun Buxiao's laughter.

"Hee hee hee, I'm happy, I'm happy! Congratulations!"

Because Xi'er was too anxious, she didn't notice Feng Bei who was riding on Zheng Xiu's body for a short time.

The former winding three who see who will destroy who.

That hand carried the ominous Feng Bei.

I am gently giving Chiwang health care.

Spreading the news is a major event that will shake the entire bureau.

"Who's pregnant?"

Zheng Xiu and Feng Bei were stunned at the same time.

"Mo Lie! The one who vomits whenever he sees a praying mantis!"

"Grass?" The amount of information was too much, and it took Zheng Xiu a while to recover, and he was stunned for a while: "How could he be pregnant? No, how did he get there? No, why is he really a man? Pregnant?"

hiss…

This…

So wicked?

Zheng Xiu's heart skipped a beat.

Before Xi'er could talk about the cause and effect, Zheng Xiu's thoughts changed, and he quickly figured it out.

Jun Buxiao took the order to investigate the case, and he brought his helpers.

It's more like a helper than mine clearance.

He used to know Dou Xi well, so he called him.

Dou Xi was ignorant and ignorant, thinking of getting a promotion and salary increase to prove himself, so he went there foolishly.

I got pregnant as soon as I went.

"Don't you laugh?"

Xi'er: "He's smiling next to him!"

Zheng Xiu was expressionless: "Tell him that the person he took out died, and the pension will be deducted from his salary."

The laughter stopped abruptly.

Xi'er looked back blankly, then turned back again: "He's crying!"

Jun Buxiao is a guy who recognizes money but not people.He can't be said to be loyal to the former night master. This kind of person is easy to use, but not very easy to use.

Xi'er succinctly described the process of Mo Li's pregnancy.

Sure enough, he guessed the same as Zheng Xiu. Mo Jie didn't even figure out the reason for the "Wutong Temple", so he went in with a handwritten book full of confidence.

After he was pregnant, he cried and recited "Song of Haoran Zhengqi" again, but it was useless.

"What now?"

Xi'er didn't know what to do.

This is the first time she has encountered such a thing, what should a man do if he is pregnant?Xi'er was dumbfounded.

Zheng Xiu was not too sure, hesitating: "Born?"

Xi'er was dumbfounded: "Where did you come from? Men don't have..."

She was about to say that men don't have that kind of thing, but when she thought about it carefully, her pretty face flushed suddenly, as if she insisted on saying, there is still something.I don't know what she thought of, but after blushing, she suddenly took a deep breath.

　Ask for a monthly pass!
