Hibiscus Flower West Moon Splendid

Chapter 102 But I Sniff the Flowers (2)
There are tears in the pearl of the sea, and the blue sky is warm and the jade smokes.

This feeling can be treated as a recollection, but it was lost at the time.

Then I went to the bedside and found a mahogany brocade box, which contained the Dongling white jade hairpin. After rubbing it for a long time, I finally sighed with tears in my eyes: "Give me back this thing to Young Master Xue Treading."

Qi Fang glanced at me a few times, then simply said no, and took it out without asking what was inside.

I went to Hope Primary School, but I didn't expect that several older children were already guarding the door with their usual weapons.

The long-lost fear clearly appeared in the eyes of those children. When they saw me coming, they all surrounded me. The younger ones started to runny noses and tears.My heart ached, and I comforted them, "Don't worry, we'll all be fine. See, sir has already asked so many uncles to guard the school, right?"

Seven-year-old Meizhu sobbed, "Sir, I'm afraid. When my mother and father were robbed and killed by horse thieves, there were many uncles who protected me, but in the end my father, my mother and those uncles still died..."

"Don't be afraid, don't be afraid, Mr. will guard the school tonight, don't be afraid. There are also the most powerful Uncle Qi, Uncle Zhu, Brother Yange and Brother Chunlai, and even brother Yuanxiao who is a nerd. Mr. and the governor of Dongwu are good friends , Zhang Taishou also specially sent a team of horses to help Mr. guard."

After I comforted them for a long time, the children felt at ease and went back to their room to sleep obediently.

When I went back to the study, I saw Qi Fang came back, saying that Mr. Treading Snow had a reward.

I braced myself and entered the door, but saw a long scroll on the desk, and when I looked, it was a scroll.

I gently pulled out a roll of paintings from the scroll, unfolded it, and it turned out to be a picture of "Spring Girl Appreciating Lotus". Smiling and staring ahead, there are endless pink lotus green leaves behind.

This is what he drew for me in June of the third year of Yongye.I remember that day, my neck was so sore from sitting, but he refused to let me see the painting afterwards, and insisted on taking this painting to Luoyang for mounting, because Luoyang has the best mounting artist.But when he came back, I learned of Jinxiu's sad story, and later I discovered Jinxiu and his secret, so I was no longer interested in looking at this painting.

I stared blankly, I didn't even know that Qi Fang had entered the room.Suddenly I heard his exclamation, and I was startled to feel the bitterness in my mouth. Drops of blood flowed from my mouth to the body of the person in the painting. During the long flow of my tears, the person had already collapsed on the painting. superior.I heard Qi Fang and many people rushing in, but my mind was full of the boy's smile at me that day, and the voice in my ear called: "Mujin."

I was in a coma for a few days, when I woke up, Xiaoyu and Qi Fang stood beside me with red eyes, full of surprise.

Xiaoyu choked up and said, "Sir, don't go to sleep."

I smiled miserably at her and slept on the bed for a few more days.

Xuanyuanyi and Xiyan came to see me before leaving. Xiyan's two small eyes were swollen like walnuts from crying, and her eyes were flustered like never before. "What's wrong with Daddy? Xiyan wants to stay and take care of Daddy. do not go."

I just sent them away in front of the hospital bed with tears in my eyes, Zhang Zhiyan specially brought a group of famous doctors from Jiangnan, saying that he wanted to treat me.I was silent for a while, and asked Qi Fang to send a message. I only agreed to Xuansi to diagnose the pulse, so a large number of doctors pulled the colorful silk thread outside, felt it around, and almost everyone was a little surprised at first, and then shook their heads constantly.

Zhang Zhiyan asked the doctors to go down to prescribe prescriptions, but he himself lifted up his robe, sat beside me, and helped me tuck the corner of the quilt, "You are a good person, how did you hurt your chest and abdomen like this? 20 years later So you got this hematemesis?"

Qi Fang quietly walked to my side, with a trace of guard hidden in his eyes.

Zhang Zhiyan looked at it, and smiled slightly, "Your entourage is really loyal, aren't you afraid that I will offend him?"

Qi Fang knelt down expressionlessly, but there was no fear in his eyes.I was startled inwardly, Zhang Zhiyan has always treated me and my family generously, how could he mean something to me today?I smiled and let Qi Fang go down first.

Zhang Zhiyan smiled at me again, "Don't ask, we've known each other for almost four years, right?"

"Thanks to my elder brother for taking care of me, Mo Wen's family is safe and the business is booming." I said sincerely, looking at Zhang Zhiyan calmly.

Zhang Zhiyan got up, walked to the window sill, casually played with the quill on my desk, and sighed softly: "Since you know that I treat you well, why don't you want to be my assistant?"

"Mo Wen already answered my brother's question three years ago." I lowered my eyelids and said softly, "Mo Wen was taught by the ancestors..."

"Then why did Jun's money flow out to Duan's family in Dali with tens of millions?" Zhang Zhiyan turned around and pulled open the curtain abruptly. I raised my hand reflexively to cover the direct sunlight that entered my eyes. He was extremely surprised, but he heard Ang Zang's figure beside the window smirk and said, "Dare to ask... Is Prince Xuanyuan with you?"

I put down my hand, endured the throbbing pain, and said with a light smile: "A few days ago, my daughter and nephew were robbed outside... So it was brother who did it?"

Zhang Zhiyan's always indifferent face was condensed, "I have treated you well in the past few years since you were in Jiangnan, but you don't want to be Zhang's staff, but you are the running dog of the Duan family? You secretly hid the former prince, What is the intention of attracting the original lord to come?"

I chuckled, "Elder brother is the overlord of one party, but he condescends to be a brother of a different surname with Mo Wen. Mo Wen is grateful in his heart, so he has always regarded his elder brother as his own in his heart. As for Jun's property..." I took Picking up Sipa next to him, coughed lightly, covered a mouthful of blood, held back the blood and continued: "I don't want to hide from my brother, I, Jun Mowen, is indeed the financial advisor of the Duan family in Dali, but... I am definitely not from the Duan family. Running dog." I looked into his eyes, "Nanzhao has always been a serious problem for my Han people, dare you ask me, do you want a strong neighbor or a neighbor who is busy dividing the family and has endless disputes?"

Zhang Zhiyan seemed to be moved, looked at me, and said slowly: "Naturally, the split Nanzhao is better."

I smiled and coughed again, "What brother said is very true." I lowered my head, "Mo Wen was born in the Jun family of Qianzhong, and when the Duan family of Nanzhao ransacked the home of Lanjun, it was at a time when Dali was weak and Nanzhao was strong. "

"So you helped Dali to make the war worse in the south?"

I smiled slightly and didn't say yes or no, I just looked at Zhang Zhiyan with a clear face, his face softened slightly.

He slowly sat down on the mahogany chair, opened the teacup to smell it carefully, took a sip, raised his eyes slightly and said: "Just now the imperial doctor said that your pulse is strange, it seems to be a woman's pulse?"

I smiled weakly, "My brother and I have known each other for three or four years, is it male or female, brother still doesn't know?"

He also smiled mysteriously at me, "Yeah, don't I still know?"

My smile faltered, but he put down the teacup and asked calmly, "I don't know if Mo Wen has ever heard of the affair between Mr. Taxue and Mrs. Huaxi?"

I said to him lightly: "I heard a little bit."

He looked at me and said, "But why did the servants of Mr. Snow Treader still visit Mrs. Huaxi everywhere in the past few years? Even come to my territory?"

"That's wrong!" I nestled in the nest, avoiding the sunlight, "From Mo Wen's point of view, the coming of Mr. Snow Stepping is definitely not as simple as a romantic, he clearly wants to discuss with the prefect to join forces to attack the Zhou Dynasty. Let's do it."

"There happened to be a lobbyist coming to Dou Zhou, so according to Mo Wen, what should I do as a brother?"

"Dou Zhou has no way, so naturally he can't cooperate with him."

"In that case, I have no choice but to join hands with the Yuan family to fight Zhou?"

I smiled frankly, "My lord brother already has a good idea, why come to ask me?"

Zhang Zhiyan stood up and walked up to me. His tall shadow blocked all the sunlight, "Don't ask, my spies reported me just now, and there was another dispute in the Turkic territory. Join forces and split into two groups, one with 10 troops encircling Xi'an, and the other going straight to the Gongyue City of the original Qingjiang's illegitimate son Saruer. Now the Yuan clan's defense is empty, and the Dou family's army is overwhelming. If I kill Texue now Young master, dedicate his head to Dou Yinghua, do you think it is possible to join forces with Dou's to divide the world equally?"

I looked up at him silently for a long while, and said, "Brother wouldn't do that!"

He laughed, "Why do you see that?"

"First, if the elder brother joins Dou Zhou, the Dou family will definitely make the Zhang family attack the Yuan family, and the snipe and the clam will fight, and the one who benefits will be the Dou family; second, if the elder brother goes to the Northern Expedition, no matter whether it is Dali or Nanzhao in the south, Then, he will take the opportunity to invade the south of the Yangtze River. At that time, the elder brother will have no time to think about it. It is very likely that not only will he lose his ancestral fiefdom, but even his family will be ruined. Dou Yinghua is insidious, cunning, and capricious. In order to usurp power, he even harms the younger sister born to one mother. For such a wolf-hearted person, even if his elder brother offers the head of Mr. Treading Xue to help him seize the world, after the world is completed, The elder brother's fate is also the same as that of Han Xin in ancient times, and he will not end well."

"Bold!" Zhang Zhi yelled sternly, "If I let Mr. Treading Xue go back, the Dou family will also think that I have two ends, and use the excuse to make things difficult for me. I will not be able to escape unscathed."

I have never seen him so angry, but I was suddenly shocked in my heart.Being so annoyed and angry, it seems that he didn't simply want to test me, but really moved his mind.

"Brother, forgive me. But it is Mo Wen's heartfelt words. Let me ask you, brother dominates the power in the south of the Yangtze River, and the Dou family and the Yuan family are fighting fiercely. It is a great opportunity for brother to sit on the mountain and watch the tigers fight. Why do you have to make a decision now? It is true. ..." The smell of blood in my throat was strong, I couldn't help coughing a few times, in a daze, I wanted to call Xiaoyu in, but I couldn't hold my upper body, and fell backwards limply.Someone stepped forward to support my upper body and handed me the medicinal soup that was placed beside the bed. The instinct to survive made me drink the bitter medicinal juice.

It's so bitter, how does it taste like that Mengpo soup?
I suddenly thought, if Meng Po stands in front of me again, if I drink that bowl of Meng Po soup, I will forget all the pain of this second life, and then I will also forget Feijue, Duan Yuerong, and Feibai... …Will I be like those ghosts who are obsessed with past lives and refuse to drink that Mengpo soup?
I was thinking in a trance, but saw the young man in front of me looking at me seriously, it turned out that Zhang Zhiyan brought me the medicinal soup.

I smiled wryly, and said with a bloody smile: "Indeed, the original Xi'an lords are strong and strong, respect the virtuous, and manage the family well. In the past few years, they have regained the country in the name of the banner of righteousness and returned to Kyoto. It will not be long. Mo If you really want to break the situation of the Southern and Northern Dynasties, Mo Wen thinks that uniting with the original family is several times more likely to win than uniting with the Dou family."

The Ruinaoxiang on Zhang Zhiyan's body rushed straight into his nose, and I leaned on the opposite side panting, staring at him fixedly.He looked into my eyes, pondered for a moment, and said slowly: "In the seven years of Yongye, I fought with Yu Wan, the Yuan family, for a year, and there were countless casualties. The reason why I dare to give it a go is because my staff watched the stars at night. It was all expected that there would be a severe drought in Hanzhong that year. The Yuan family was running out of food and grass, and even the Yuan family thought they could not survive until a mysterious businessman surnamed Mu donated nearly one million taels of food and grass to the Yuan family. Crisis. After searching for many years, I found out that the businessman surnamed Mu is one of your subordinates."

As soon as I lost my hand, the medicine bowl fell and shattered.

Zhang Zhiyan is worthy of being a hero in the world, but he still found me.That businessman named Mu, Mu Zonghe, was the spy I asked Qi Fang to secretly install in Shanxi, and even Duan Yuerong didn't know about it.In the seventh year of Yongye, there was a severe drought in Hanzhong, and the Zhang family coveted Wancheng, the rich grain capital, for a long time. Taking advantage of this, they suddenly sent troops to attack Wancheng. ".

In fact, the Yuan family could no longer survive, and even cooked the corpses of starved people in the army to support the war. At that time, it was Fei Bai who led the army.I finally exposed Mu Zonghe, made him pretend to be an admirer of Mr. Xue Treading, donated all his belongings, and secretly sent powerful dark people to dig thousands of miles of secret passages to send food and grass, and resolved the siege of Wancheng of the original family.

Then I let Mu Zonghe return to somewhere in the south of the Yangtze River to enjoy his old age. Qi Fang said that he disappeared suddenly a few days ago.

I calmed down, gently pushed Zhang Zhiyan away, and calmly smiled: "What do you want to do now, brother?"

Zhang Zhiyan stared at me like a torch for a long time, and asked, "Then who are you?"

I looked back at him for a while, and smiled as before, "Who am I? Brother, I am just a stinky businessman, Jun Mo Wener, and a short-lived ghost who is about to step into the coffin."

There was no surprise on Zhang Zhiyan's face, it can be seen that his famous doctors told him my physical condition, he stood up again, and said in a deep voice: "Where is the prince?"

"Mo Wen really doesn't know what brother said."

"You, Yin Shen, and Dou Ting brought the prince out of Zhaoming Palace and hid him in my territory. How dare you lie to me? Now that the Yuan Clan of Xi'an is here, they clearly want to take the prince back to Xi'an, so that the Yuan family can take the emperor under his command. Princes. How can I ask you to take care of these Jun’s properties these years? Why am I not helping you? Without me, you and your master will be at ease to this day? Don’t ask, how can you treat me like this without hurting people’s hearts? ?” Speaking of the last few words, hatred burst out from his eyes, and he stared at me scorchingly.

I struggled to get out of bed and knelt down in front of him, "Brother has shown you a great kindness to Mo Wen, and Mo Wen never dared to forget it. There is no prince here in Mo Wen. If you don't believe me, you can have people search the house. Heaven can learn from you. Mo Wen I really didn't bring the Yuan family here."

Just when I was about to faint, a pair of hands hugged me horizontally and put me back on the bed.I gasped and looked at Zhang Zhiyan, but Zhang Zhiyan looked at me all the way, "Do you think I dare not search your house?"

I shake my head slightly.

Zhang Zhi said sternly: "Come here."

A soldier in armor rushed in and said solemnly: "The eunuch orders."

Zhang Zhiyan said: "Surround the emperor's mansion, search for the key criminals, you can't let a fly go."

I suppressed the churning in my heart, "Why do you need to force me so hard, brother? Why do you want to find a prince so that the people in the south of the Yangtze River can't sleep or eat?"

Zhang Zhiyan smiled proudly, and the disdain in his eyes suddenly appeared, "The world is in chaos, and the heroes are chasing it. The land of Dongwu is fertile and rich, with abundant food and grass, and outstanding people. There has long been a rebellious minister of the Ming Dynasty, who secretly took Dongwu as the foundation. He worked hard to rule and build the city. Set up troops to make it easy to defend and difficult to attack, and dominate the southeast. Up to now, the Nayuan and Dou clans still stare at me and covet me. Since my Zhang family dominated the south of the Yangtze River, I have worked hard and trained soldiers. Now the foundation is deep. , since I am the son of the Zhang family, I will naturally fight back to the capital with the crown prince, and compete with the Dou Yuan family for supremacy in the world, and compete in the Central Plains, so as to realize my Zhang family's grand plan and hegemony."

I stared blankly at him for a while, and realized that something was wrong with him holding me, but I saw him looking into my eyes, and said softly: "Could it be, don't you think that elder brother is really no match for the Dou Yuan family?"

I shook my head lightly, "Brother, Mo Wen thinks that you are not suitable for fighting for world hegemony."

His face turned cold, he put me on the bed lightly, and snorted softly: "Although you can be like a fish in water in the mall, you are just a woman with long hair and short-sightedness, just like Yuhua... Since a man is so aggressive, he should have something How can it be understood by you and other women?"

I said coldly: "Brother, don't confuse the public, don't ask, he is obviously a man."

"Okay, big man, do you dare to live in my house for a while?"

But seeing that although his mouth was full of teasing, his eyes were unfathomable, and his heart immediately moved, this Zhang Zhiyan is going to use me to deal with Fei Bai and the Yuan family.I smiled lightly, "Brother's kindness, I dare not refuse. However, he has a stubborn illness, not to mention that Mo Wen's reputation outside, disturbing his family members, is even a death penalty, brother Zhang should let Mo Wen rest at the house."

Zhang Zhiyan flicked his sleeves and smiled, setting off a burst of auspiciousness. He sat next to me again and smiled flirtatiously at me, "You and I have known each other for seven years in Yongye. I knew you were a woman the first time I saw you. At that time But I thought you wanted to use Yuhua to get close to me to facilitate your business. It’s just that the longer we know each other, the more I feel that you are not simple. In the past few years, you have donated money to distribute food, pave roads and build bridges, not only helping me spend several times in Dongwu Natural disasters also invested money in Caspian for my war with the Dou family, but now I think it was only for Young Master Xue Treading."

I looked at him still calm, "What brother said today is getting more and more strange, and Mo Wen can't understand it anymore."
