The beautiful pastoral field of Jiangmen girl

Chapter 641: Unprepared (1)
Gu Shi was speechless.And this is the eldest son who couldn't sleep by himself, and then came to torment his son.

Zhou Boyan didn't say anything, as if he didn't hear anything.

An Rongzhou ate three pieces of snacks in a row, and after urging Gu Shitou to serve hot tea, gossip time started again. "A strange thing happened in Beijing today. Brother, I will tell you. This afternoon, when the servants of Pingbohou's mansion were sorting out the abandoned courtyard, they found the body of the missing Pingbohou. Brother thinks this is weird. , ran to have a look."

Zhou Boyan remained silent.

An Rongzhou said to himself, "Tsk, tsk, tsk, he was stabbed in the heart at close range, and he died for a long time. The gang of idlers in the Ministry of punishment were not optimistic about the scene, and they didn't know what to do. Yundi spoke harshly, but in the end he didn't say anything clearly. From my point of view, Ping Bohou's body was moved by someone. The other party was very clever, leaving almost no traces, and ordinary people really can't notice the abnormality. Forget it, this topic Not interesting. Let's find something interesting."

"Are you free recently?" Zhou Boyan asked suddenly.

The relaxed expression on An Rongzhou's face flew away immediately, "No idleness, no idleness, brother is busy!" Just kidding, if he admits that he is idle, the inhuman younger brother may enslave him. "Brother squeezes out his precious sleep time every night, for whom? Not to send you the latest news! Taishi Zhong has been in decline recently, and his son steals widows and is smashed by someone, and he is ashamed to see others. Tonight, when grandson is visiting the brothel He was also broken by someone. This happened an hour ago. Tsk, tsk, tsk, Grand Master Zhong is really bad luck. That’s not counting, Zhong Zhi, that fifth-rank official Zhong Zhi, yesterday I drank too much at night and was beaten with a sap, and I still haven’t woken up. Grand Master Zhong thinks this is a conspiracy, and suspects that the right minister Zuo Siming is plotting against the Grand Master’s residence.”

Zhou Boyan didn't speak.On the other hand, Gu Shitou, who was next to him, became interested, "How do you say?"

An Rongzhou patted Gu Shitou's shoulder with a very polite expression on his face, "Zuo Siming's grandson was beaten by Grand Master Zhong's grandson, and he was seriously injured. Grand Master Zhong seems to have caught Zuo Siming's What is the reason, coercion and temptation to make this matter go away. Zuo Siming was forced to agree, but he was not reconciled afterwards, so he secretly took revenge on Grand Master Zhong. By the way, I suddenly thought of something. Brother Yan, you have to remind your uncle, Mr. Zhou Let me say, it's better to be quiet recently, so that I don't even know how I lost my head."

Zhou Boyan said coldly, "What did he do?"

"Frequently moving around, trying to win over the officials of the six departments, not to mention, I am trying to match Zuo Siming's granddaughter and Buwu."

They didn't say anything, but they knew in their hearts that the right minister Zuo Siming belonged to the empress dowager, and Bu Zhongjun belonged to the emperor.It is true that Bu Zhongjun is old, and it is true that he is old, but Bu Zhongjun's influence is still there, and the current prestige of the Bu family in the army is unmatched.

What does it mean that Youxiangfu and Bufu are married?It means that the Right Prime Minister's Mansion will pull Bu Zhongjun into its camp through marriage, that is, the person who will let Bu Zhongjun become the queen mother.Taking a step back, even if Mr. Bu Zhong did not work for the Queen Mother, the emperor would no longer trust Mr. Bu Zhong and Bufu after the marriage between the two families was completed, which was quite beneficial to the Queen Mother.

On this cusp, smart people stay neutral or try to avoid it as much as possible.Mr. Zhou rushed up and offended the emperor in one fell swoop, he was out of patience.

Zhou Boyan frowned.In the past, for various reasons, in order to protect him, the emperor's uncle asked Mr. Zhou to make up a lie, saying that he was Mr. Zhou's foster son.In fact, after this matter is arranged, it can only deceive ordinary people, young princes and ladies from powerful families, and some ordinary courtiers.Although he basically didn't stay in the capital, important officials like the prime minister and the minister knew his identity, but they didn't dare to publicize it.

He doesn't like his fake identity very much, and even if he returns to Beijing, he doesn't like staying in Zhou Mansion, and he doesn't go back to Princess Chang's Mansion, he just lives in the current Shuyuan or Princess Jingyang Mansion.He knew that his identity was not a secret at all, so he didn't do anything deliberately, and he always acted according to his heart in Beijing.Then, it was rumored from nowhere that he was Lord Zhou's son, but he was adopted by the eldest princess and Prince Zhou early on.Therefore, after the death of Princess Eldest and Concubine Zhou, his status was embarrassing, so Mr. Zhou found a reason to take him back. Yunyun.

Then there were rumors.He was reluctant to part with the glory and wealth left to him by the eldest princess and Prince Zhou, and didn't like to return to his own father's side, so he ran away from home in a fit of anger.It is well known that the empress dowager and the emperor value the eldest princess, so the empress dowager and the emperor love their house and love each other. Even if he is the adoptive son of the eldest princess and Prince Zhou, he still loves him deeply, and the eldest princess's mansion will still be inherited by him.Behind all kinds of speculation and rumors, there will always be one sentence in the end: In the hearts of the queen mother and the emperor, his status is better than that of any prince.

After he and his uncle Master Zhou turned against each other, it was rumored in private that he was indeed the son of the eldest princess and Prince Consort Zhou.As an uncle, Mr. Zhou felt sorry for him losing his parents, so he wanted to love him instead of his parents, so he took him back to Zhou Mansion.Mr. Zhou was well-intentioned, but he was not grateful. On the contrary, he hurt the hearts of Mr. Zhou and Mrs. Zhou, and went back alone to enjoy the glory and wealth left by the eldest princess with ungratefulness.

The gossip and gossip in Beijing will not affect him.Because he basically doesn't stay in the capital.That is to say, in the past two years, he has returned to Beijing more often.And in the past two years, any kind of rumors came to his ears, and he ignored them.

Now, when he heard that his uncle Zhou was involved in the power struggle between the emperor and the queen mother, he could only secretly scold his uncle for getting water in his head.

Zhou Boyan wrote a letter overnight and sent someone to secretly deliver it to Mrs. Zhou.Afterwards, he woke up Qing Shu and the others overnight, and ordered the horses and horses to be harnessed and loaded quickly. He also ordered people to wrap the horseshoes with cloth, and the group left Shu Yuan quietly.At the time of Chou, he used his token to call open the south gate of the capital, and the group left the capital.

Zhou Boyan's sudden departure from Beijing without any warning, and at an ugly time in the middle of the night that no one expected, can be said to have caught all forces by surprise.The emperor was the first to receive the news. At that time, Zhou Boyan's team had just left the city and had not gone five miles.

Hall of Mental Cultivation.The emperor looked at the letter sent by Zhou Boyan, and the look of surprise on his face disappeared for a moment.Obviously, the emperor was not aware of Zhou Boyan's departure beforehand.

Manager Hong and Xiao Xiangzi, who were serving in front of them, hung their heads low, and the secret agent in charge of delivering the letter stood in a dark corner waiting for the emperor's instructions.

Manager Hong was very puzzled.According to common sense, the capital is an important place, and no one can open the gate of the capital except the emperor or the person holding the emperor's personal order.The emperor obviously didn't know about it, so he definitely didn't give Mr. Yan an order to leave the city at night.So, how did Mr. Yan call to open the city gate?
The emperor sat there wearing bright yellow underwear, silent for a moment, and smiled, "My boy, you are getting better and better." Then I don't know who he said to, "From today onwards, you will be responsible for passing on to Mr. Zhen and Mr. Yan." News. Tell him, it’s fine to go, but I have to take care of things. If you dare to be the shopkeeper, you will never get the marriage decree. Go!”
