Power to the government and the public: Qian engaged in business in ancient times

Chapter 122 Masako

Wangfu, in the study.

Housekeeper Chu respectfully stood aside, looking at King Anyang who was bowing his head in thought at the desk: "My lord, all the guests have gone to the training ground one after another, it's time for you to leave."

King Anyang looked up at Butler Chu's face that was no longer young, feeling a little emotional: "Butler, in the blink of an eye, Qin'er is 20 years old, and we are old too."

Steward Chu looked at King Anyang with a smile, and said with a grin: "My lord is joking, you are still young, your son has not married a concubine, and Princess Anning has not yet married, all these important matters need your lord to take care of! "

After hearing what he said, King Anyang relieved a lot of the melancholy in his heart.

Then he asked about the precious gifts sent by the major forces: "Housekeeper, have you finished sorting out those gifts that were sent to Qin'er alone? Which forces in the world are they?"

Steward Chu took out the roster, checked it, and explained: "I sorted out all the congratulatory gifts that were given to the son alone, and ordered the servants to send them to the son's study. Four forces gave gifts to the son individually, namely Anyang Tower, Dark Arrow Pavilion, Dead Soldiers Camp, and Mandala Valley."

"What? Mandala Valley!"

King Anyang was shocked when he heard the words "Manduohua Valley".

"Is there any problem with this mandala valley?" Butler Chu always felt that this force was very familiar, but he couldn't remember it for a while.

"You forgot that the princess was pregnant and was always weak. The king personally went to the owner of the mandala valley to treat the princess, but was told that the princess had a chronic and severe poison. If she tried to detoxify, it would hurt the fetus in her womb , The princess refused to take the antidote.

The king deliberately took the princess who was about to give birth in advance to find the owner of the Mandala Valley, but met the remnants of the anti-Chu and Qin Qin forces, which made the princess sick all the time after giving birth. Later, even if the owner of the Mandala Valley personally He tried to heal the concubine, but only let her accompany Qin'er. An Ning died when she was seven years old. "

King Anyang thought of the deceased princess, with a trace of sadness on his face.

"This king wants to keep the owner of the Mandala Valley by his side to serve, but he pursues freedom and refuses to stay. Four years ago, this king met him in Xuancheng, but he became a man who everyone in the world feared and wanted to kill. He is a poisonous and old-fashioned person with no righteousness left. Now the people of Mandala Flower Valley have taken the initiative to send congratulatory gifts to Qin'er, is there any intention?"

Steward Chu was reminded by the prince, and instantly remembered who the owner of the Mandala Valley was.

This person's surname is Jiang, his first name is Dao, and his character is Zhengwen.

He is a Taoist priest who has returned to vulgarity. He has superb medical skills and claims that as long as he has one breath, he can save a life.

People in Mandala Valley only save those who should be saved, and those who should not be saved, even with a knife on their neck.

Later, Jiang Dao's closed disciple was trapped by love and rescued a person who shouldn't be saved, which caused civil strife in the valley.

The closed disciple was expelled from the school, and before he left, he stole Jiang Dao's precious book "Secret Art of Poison Classics".

From then on, there was no one named Jiang Dao in the world, and there was an old poisonous and evil Taoist who was uncertain about righteousness and evil.

After Housekeeper Chu thought of the past of Mandala Valley, his heart tightened, and his wrinkled face was full of worry: "My lord, I'm going to take back the gift that Mandala Valley gave to the son alone, and show it to you, just in case Harm the world."

After considering it for a while, King Anyang nodded: "Steward Chu, go and get back the congratulatory gift from the Mandala Flower Valley, and at the same time let Qin'er go to the martial arts field and let him lead various forces into Qipanshan, I won't go."

"Yes, my lord." Butler Chu bowed and bowed, then turned and strode away.

Chu Qin didn't see Wen Cheng when he went to the stone room, so he immediately ordered the hidden guards around him to search the entire palace secretly.

He guessed that Mo Yi, who escaped first, shot back and rescued Wen Cheng.

It also occurred to her that Chu Jiao and Wen Qian had also been to the study, and they were also suspected.

Chu Qin's whole face was gloomy and terrifying, and his whole body exuded violent anger.

At this moment, Steward Chu's most favored servant, Su Rui, walked into the study room holding four gift boxes of different sizes.

It was originally a happy mood, but after seeing the unhappy face of the prince, he immediately raised his slack mood, and carefully reported: "Slave Su Rui sees the prince, this is a congratulatory gift from the various powers alone. Let the servants bring it to you."

"Put it on the table and step back."

"Yes, my lord." Su Rui lightly put down the things in his hand, turned around and was about to leave.

Chu Qin looked at Su Rui's back and knew that he was the godson of housekeeper Chu, so he should be treated kindly.

Suppressing the anger in his heart, he told the big maid outside the door: "Xiu Lan, give Su Rui five taels of silver."

"Thank you, my son, for the reward." Su Rui, who stepped out of the threshold, was overjoyed, and quickly bowed to Chu Qin who was inside the room.

Chu Qin looked at the gift boxes on the table, and casually picked up an exquisite brocade box that was one foot and eight long on the top.

Seeing the four small characters Mandala Flower Valley engraved on the brocade box, his eyes paused. Is this a congratulatory gift from Zhou Tianfei's enemy?

What will it be?
Is it toxic?
After hesitating for a moment, Chu Qin put down the brocade box, drew out the soft sword at his waist, and gently opened the lock of the box.

Bang!
The brocade box was opened.

Inside lay a piece of folded rice paper, with a line of handwriting faintly visible.

Chu Qin was annoyed that he made a fuss out of a molehill.

The owner of the mandala valley has enmity with Concubine Zhou Tian, ​​but not with himself.

With a dark face, he picked up the rice paper in the brocade box and quickly opened it.

When he saw the content on the paper, his pupils shrank in fright, his face turned pale and then red, red and then white.

For a while, the whole person is not well.

Immediately, Chu Qin glanced at the candle lamp on the table, walked over quickly, and directly put the rice paper on the candle flame.

A faint smell of fireworks spread in the room, and the fear in Chu Qin's eyes slowly dissipated until the rice paper was burned out.

Then, he immediately covered the brocade box, looking at the words Mandala Valley on it, it was extremely dazzling.

No, this secret cannot be leaked out, and Concubine Zhou must be ordered to kill the owner of the Mandala Valley immediately.

Chu Qin had a sullen face. As soon as he stepped out of the study, he saw Housekeeper Chu walking towards him from a distance.

Steward Chu saluted respectfully, and said with a smile: "My lord, this old slave is ordered by the prince, please go to the martial arts field, arrange various forces to go to Qipanshan to hunt for treasure, and at the same time let this old slave take back the congratulatory gift from Mandala Valley. "

"Uh..., I'm going to the training ground. By the way, Steward Chu, I haven't touched all the things that Su Rui sent just now. What about the congratulatory gifts from Mandala Valley, you can find them yourself. I'll go first gone."

"The old slave sent the son off." Steward Chu looked lovingly at Chu Qin who was walking away, and entered the study with his hands behind his back.

I saw the four gift boxes on the table at a glance, and saw the words Mandala Valley written on one of the brocade boxes, so I didn't think much about it.

Steward Chu took the brocade box, turned around and left.

"Master Ah Cheng, it was my carelessness that caused you trouble. I thought that it had been more than ten years since that happened, and Chu Qin in the palace would not recognize me. Unexpectedly, he recognized my true identity after meeting me. Seeing that I am following you, I will want your life."

Old man Mo supported Wen Cheng, who was covered in injuries, and hid in the lilac bushes under the gazebo.

While carefully bandaging Wen Cheng's bleeding wound, he glanced around sharply and vigilantly.

"Uncle Mo, you used to be a guard of the palace, so why did you go to Wen's Village? Also, who did the eldest son Chu Qin think of me? While trying to kill me, he kept asking who I am?" Wen Cheng endured the pain and asked Out of the bottom of my heart doubts.

"No, I am the hidden guard of the late princess."

Seeing that the gauze wrapped around Wen Cheng's neck no longer oozes blood, old man Mo's tense mind relaxed a bit, and a wry smile appeared on his face: "Chu Qin recognizes you as the real son of the palace."

"What?" Wen Cheng looked at Old Man Mo in astonishment, suspecting that there was something wrong with his ears: "Who do you think Chu Qin thinks I am?"

Old man Mo said calmly: "The real son of the palace."
