There are many official duties these days, and it is the end of the month, and the accounts in the government have to be settled. Hengtai has been sleeping in the study for several days in a row.Xingdai stayed alone in the vacant room for several days, and finally couldn't help letting Nanny Li accompany her, and went to the study to find Hengtai in person.Unexpectedly, Hengtai was not in the study, so he went to the accountant early in the morning. Hengtai and several accountants were taking stock of the expenses for the past few months, when Tong Yuxiu suddenly came over with a man wearing a mask on his face, he just bowed to Hengtai and said with a loud smile: "Master, This was originally a relative of my distant sister-in-law, named Ah Cheng, Ah Cheng, hurry up and meet Uncle Heng."

This Ah Cheng is not Tong Yuxiu's distant relative, he is clearly Jiang Yichen.But in order to sneak into the General's Mansion, Yi Rong just put on a disguise.Jiang Yichen stepped forward to salute Hengtai, and whispered, "I've seen Mr. Heng." Hengtai nodded, pointed to the mask on Jiang Yichen's face and asked, "This is..." Tong Yuxiu quickly replied: "He! There was a flood at home one year, and he rushed into the fire to save people, but his hair and face were burnt to pieces. He took medicine for more than half a year, although his life was saved, but since then He left behind a deformed and ugly face, which could only be covered with a mask... Sigh, with such a face, how could ordinary people dare to use it for work? Sir, I also owed my sister-in-law to help me this time, take a look , can you let Ah Cheng find an errand in our house?"

Hengtai nodded, admiring this man named Ah Cheng. "It's a hero's act to act bravely. I originally admired this kind of friend who sacrificed himself to save others. Since Ah Cheng is willing to come to the house to help, I couldn't be more welcome. Nowadays, all the kitchens and horses are in need of manpower, and there are also some foreigners. For errands, look at what Ah Cheng likes, and arrange whatever you want, don't treat him badly." Tong Yuxiu couldn't help but nodded her head: "Ah Cheng, why don't you thank me soon?" Hearing this, Jiang Yichen immediately knelt down to Hengtai and said gratefully, "Thank you for taking me in!"

While talking, Xing Dai walked in with Nanny Li carrying the food box. "Go down." Hengtai pushed Tong Yuxiu and Jiang Yichen back. Xingdai came over and spoke softly to Hengtai: "Hengtai, I saw that you haven't had breakfast yet, so I specially made a cup of bird's nest for you to nourish your body. Drink it while it's hot! I know you I'm still sad about Xiaoxue's matter, but it's also unpredictable, and people have misfortunes and blessings. I never thought about how she... Sigh, I also blamed me for not going to the clan's house to explain and ask them to take care of me. Hengtai, please don't blame me anymore, I really regret it too!"

Hengtai shook his head: "Why did the princess say that? It's okay—the bird's nest minister accepted it. There are still many things to do here, so I can't accompany you, the princess, please go back!" Hengtai walked into the inner room of the accounting room, and closed the door behind him.Xingdai was shut down, embarrassed and sad, what did she do wrong, Hengtai hated her so much, she was bored even seeing her. "Let's go, princess." Nanny Li sighed, and pulled Xingdai out of the counting room. When there was no sound from outside, Hengtai came out from the inner room, checked the accounts clearly, and then went to the study to discuss matters with General Fucha.

For a while, he seemed to be very busy. It probably started from the day he quarreled with Liancheng.Always keep yourself very busy, maybe you don't have to meet her, maybe you don't have to think about her all the time. A little later, Hengtai went to see General Fucha, and was talking when he saw Liancheng walking in with a snack in his hand.Hengtai glanced at Liancheng, but Liancheng didn't seem to see him at all, and only looked at General Fucha without squinting. "There are new roses blooming in our yard. Last night, Fujin picked the petals by himself. Today, he made rose cakes. They are fresh. I sent them to the general to taste." Liancheng put the dessert in front of General Fucha. .

When General Fucha heard this, he picked up a piece of pastry to taste, and immediately he was full of praise. Holding the pastry, he said to Hengtai, "Your mother's handicraft has not been interested in making it myself for many years. Come, you can try it too." Liancheng put the pastry in front of Hengtai expressionlessly. He only had her eyes, but she didn't feel it at all. A sense of depression rose in Hengtai's heart. He remembered what Guo Xiao said to him, and he had to follow She made a show. Hengtai stretched out his hand to pick it up, but intentionally missed, knocking the dim sum to the ground.The crisp breaking sound was especially harsh in the study, and celadon pieces were splashed everywhere.Hengtai took the opportunity to attack.

"What a fool! You can't even hold the plate steadily! Mother Guo's old eyes are dizzy, where did you get such a maid, who is still serving in front of my mother-in-law with clumsy hands." Liancheng squatted down and silently picked up the debris all over the floor. Hengtai did this just to let her see him, but she just didn't want him to get his wish. General Fucha saw that Hengtai had gone too far, so he hurried out to smooth things over: "Hey, forget it, it's just a trivial matter. I've never seen you lose your temper, so why are you angry with a girl?! You've been too busy with business recently, and your temper is very strong. "

Hengtai glared at Liancheng fiercely, but Liancheng turned a blind eye to him, did not listen to him, and accepted the lesson calmly. Hengtai said helplessly: "Ama doesn't know something. I checked the account yesterday, and Xu Da from the laundry room took the opportunity of buying to report a private account of twenty taels. The amount is not large, but this trend cannot last long. Send him out in a few days." General Fucha nodded and said: "Now you are the housekeeper, you can handle things according to your own discretion." Hengtai's gaze still fell on Liancheng, and he deliberately said in a cold voice: "The left and right sides have to be cleaned up once, I want to get rid of those in the mansion who have dirty hands and feet, those who don't keep a tight mouth, those who are lazy at work, and those who don't even serve dishes." The servants who are not clever are cleared out."

Liancheng was completely unmoved, and picked up the fragments calmly, Hengtai became more and more angry. "You, Song Liancheng, where is your home?" Liancheng glanced at Hengtai lightly. "Go back to the uncle, my family is from Shijiazhuang. I just want to go home and have a look, and I will ask the uncle to help me." Hengtai was tongue-tied and stared at Liancheng for a long time.He tried to see a trace of weakness in Liancheng's eyes, but she didn't, she looked up at him like a fawn with high spirits.Finally, Hengtai felt a sense of frustration, and finally just waved his hand and sighed: "Forget it, it's okay, you can go down. We will discuss this matter later!"

Liancheng picked up a plate of debris, turned around and left.It can be said that there is no trace of nostalgia. Liancheng went straight into the kitchen, because Fujin said that this pastry would be delivered to the princess.After putting it on a new plate, Liancheng walked towards the princess building. In the princess building, Xingdai was sitting in the room drowsy. She has been very depressed these days. Nanny Li came in from the outside at this time, holding a bunch of splendid purses in her arms.Xing Dai glanced at it, frowned and asked, "What are you doing with these purses?" Li Nanny's expression was very mysterious, she approached Xingdai and said in a low voice: "These are good things, princess, we saw the forehead today, but looking at his expression, how can there be any pain in parting from life and death? The old slave was thinking , Could this Xiaoxue be just a cover for death? Don't let us be fooled, and we haven't found out the person in the uncle's heart yet!" Xing Dai was stunned: "You mean we were cheated?" Nanny Li nodded. "Except for this, there is no other explanation, we are probably deceived." Xing Dai immediately became angry, and dared to circle around, her busy work was in vain: "It's unreasonable! Then what should we do now? How can we find out the rightful owner?" Nanny Li smiled and said, "What's so difficult about this? The old slave has already prepared it for the princess. These purses are not ordinary purses. In these purses, they are filled with incense made of various floral fragrances and poly-scented glue." Pills, the smell is long-lasting, and once people touch their bodies, they will not leave for a long time. The princess will distribute these purses and make records according to the fragrance. Then, once the forehead is stained with which kind of fragrance, who is it? If the son-in-law has hooked up, wouldn't it be clear at a glance?" Xing Dai's eyes lit up, she nodded immediately and said: "What a good idea, it's rare that you can think of it!" Grabbing the purse, Li Momo said in a very proud voice, "Then tomorrow, this old slave will distribute the sachets, saying it is a gift from the princess." While talking, Liancheng came in with cakes, Xingdai was very happy to see Liancheng coming. "Oh, Liancheng, come, come, talk to me for a while." Liancheng handed the pastry to Xingdai, sat on the side and talked with Xingdai for a while.Before leaving, Nanny Li gave her a purse. "The princess rewarded it, wear it." Xingdai was a little dazed, and waited until Liancheng had left before asking Nanny Li. "Liancheng is useless." "Princess, if she is innocent, it's okay to give her one." Li Nanny's eyes were full of thoughtfulness. Liancheng stuffed the purse into his bosom, and before returning to the servant's room, Nanny Guo came to Liancheng, saying that Fujin had ordered her to buy some fresh lotus seeds, and lotus seeds were a rarity at this time of year. Liancheng walked around the streets, and finally bought a pack of lotus seeds, guessing it was getting late, so he planned to go home directly. Suddenly, a dirty child ran out of the slant, and snatched the paper bag that Liancheng was carrying.Liancheng was startled, took another look, and hurried after him. "Isn't this Xiaodouzi? Why are you robbing me! See if I don't catch you!" Liancheng shouted, and quickly ran after Xiaodouzi. After chasing all the way, the more and more remote, even went directly to the reed field by the river. Little Bean dropped the paper bag on the ground, then got into the reeds and disappeared.Liancheng quickly picked up the paper bag, and when he looked up, he saw Hengtai in white clothes standing with his back facing him not far away. A white spirit-calling flag was inserted by the river, and Hengtai was paying homage to someone by the river. Liancheng walked over in a strange way, and at this moment his voice came to her ears clearly. "Xiaoxue, I didn't intend to harm you, but who knew that things would change like this, the princess is so ruthless, I pity you, a little girl, and become a traveler in the nether world, if you haven't crossed the bridge of Naihe and drank Mengpo tea , you please believe me, I had no intention of forcing you to death. Now I am raising flags and setting up a sacrifice, you are under the underworld, I hope you can feel at ease." Hengtai poured wine as a sacrifice, and scattered paper money all over the sky. Liancheng just watched quietly, and the sadness that she forced herself to suppress surfaced again at this time, she walked closer slowly, and said softly: "Hengtai, if you didn't do that back then, how could Xiaoxue die? Now that Xiaoxue has left, what's the use of doing this?" Hengtai sighed: "It's useless, people can't come back. It's just that I can feel better. I'm not for myself, I want to treat you..." Liancheng shook his head and said, "I feel bad when I think about it. You said it well that day, we might as well not see each other." Liancheng turned around and was about to leave again, Hengtai hurried forward, opened his arms and hugged Liancheng vigorously, he whispered into her ear: "A thousand masters are not as difficult as you. If you are tough, you don't care Oh, I'm all soft and begging for mercy, girl, you still ignore me. Let's not be angry, okay? My heart is broken for you. I'm afraid that you will be angry with me and want to speak clearly, and I'm afraid of the princess I saw you and troubled you again. I have never been so tired leading soldiers in battle.” Liancheng looked back at Hengtai, she didn't struggle this time, but tears suddenly fell from her eyes. "I'm afraid. It's not for me. It's just that I have a feeling. You and I, we want to think about it and want to be together. This thing is like a fire. You and I are on fire. It's our two willingness. We both deserve it. But if this fire involves others, it will be our fault! I don’t want to!” Hengtai hugged Liancheng tightly, and he tried to make her let go of these things in her heart: "Don't think too much, Liancheng. Don't think too much. Let me tell you, I guarantee you with my life. There is only one tragedy like Xiaoxue, and it will last forever. It won't happen again. And me and you, we two will be good, stay together forever, and never be separated!" Liancheng was actually indifferent to Hengtai on the surface, but she never stopped thinking about him. When Hengtai said this, she couldn't help but bury her face in Hengtai's arms, and Hengtai hugged him even tighter.After a while, Liancheng raised his head, and Hengtai raised his hand to wipe her tears, Liancheng said angrily, "That day, you really want to drive me away?" Hengtai smiled and said: "Yes. Really drive away. Then I will follow you, let's go together." Hearing what he said, Liancheng immediately thumped him hard: "I'm so angry, I'm terrified!" Hengtai was very aggrieved and said: "I was terrified, you acted like you didn't hear anything, I'm afraid you are deaf." "So you let Xiaodouzi deliberately lure me here?" Liancheng asked. Hengtai was taken aback: "No! I didn't know you would come!" Just then, a group of children came out from the reeds.There are Xiaodouzi, and those children who were in Grandma Li's room back then. When Hengtai saw it, he suddenly realized: "In the past few days, I thought you were panicking, but I didn't dare to see you, so I put the old Wherever you and I walked together, we walked again. These children are really naughty! I don't even know how they arranged it..." The children clapped their hands in unison and said: "Brother Hengtai is shy and shy! He pretends to be confused and wants to. He wants to Liancheng, but he can't fall asleep. He wanders around the city of Sijiu. It's difficult to open his mouth. He wants to beg for mercy, but he doesn't know if his sister will forgive him or not. Fu Rong Flowers, beautiful in the wind, see how beautiful my sister is, brother Hengtai, speak up quickly, and carry my sister to the sedan chair!" The children were giggling, making noise and laughing.Hengtai and Liancheng were a little embarrassed by what they said. After the rain, the sky cleared and the reeds swayed. This afternoon, after putting aside those troubles, Liancheng felt for the first time that they had returned to the time when they had just met. At that time, there was a vast expanse of Di flowers, and it was the cold winter, but now, the white Di flowers have turned into green reeds, and when they turn into white Di flowers again, they will be about one year old and withered. As it was getting late, Liancheng and Hengtai went back to the General's Mansion together, but they separated when they reached the gate of the mansion. Liancheng entered the servant's room through the back door, while Hengtai went back to the Princess Building. Having just separated from Liancheng, the last person Hengtai wants to see right now is Xingdai.Because of her, he had to sneak around with Liancheng like this, and seeing Xingdai approaching to greet him, and reaching out to undress him, Hengtai didn't have a good face. "Princess, I'm tired, I need to take a bath first." Hengtai avoided Xingdai's touch. Xingdai wasn't annoyed, it wasn't a matter of two or three days since Hengtai had treated her like this, so he immediately greeted his servants and prepared hot water for Hengtai to bathe in. After Hengtai took off his clothes and got into the tub, Xingdai took out Hengtai's robe, she sniffed it closely, but was stunned. Nanny Li came over immediately and asked in a low voice, "How is it? What's the smell?" Xing Dai hesitated to speak, didn't know what to say, Li Nanny was anxious, grabbed the robe, and smelled it herself. "Hey, this smell, Jasmine...it turned out to be her! Well, it turns out that the two of them were acting for the princess last time. This Liancheng is really not easy!" Xingdai was upset at this moment, she tried to excuse Liancheng: "Liancheng is my good sister! Could it be a mistake? I have already missed it once before, could it be wrong this time, or , they just met to talk?" Nanny Li said anxiously: "Oh! Princess, you smell this smell, it's so strong, if it wasn't for hugging and kissing each other, how could this light jasmine fragrance be dyed so deeply? I say silly princess, you Don't be naive anymore, they are playing with you! You really think of her as your good sister!" Xing Dai suddenly realized, and said angrily: "Okay, okay! In vain, I really regarded you as my sister, and you have been lying to me! It seems that the whip was not enough last time, this time I have to let you know Awesome!" Nanny Li hurriedly persuaded: "Princess! Don't be impatient. Last time we killed Xiaoxue ruthlessly, you also saw the expression on the forehead. It's still an insignificant ghost. The forehead already has a relationship with you." If you directly kill Liancheng this time, how can the forehead give up with you?" "I'm a princess, he dares!" Xing Dai said arrogantly. Afraid that Xingdai would do something irreversible in agitation, she quickly stopped her and persuaded her, "You are husband and wife after all. Although he dare not do anything to the princess, he is determined not to love and live with the princess. I'm afraid The princess will also be very uncomfortable! You can’t take things straight, why not ask for them? Anyway, Liancheng is still under our control, and the mountains are high and the rivers are long. Slowly clean her up bit by bit! If she has troubles, say no It seems that we treat her very well! Cutting flesh with a soft knife is much more painful than beheading a head with a quick knife!" Xing Dai was very angry in her heart, she gritted her teeth and said, "Okay! Mommy, please help me with more means! But the first thing we need to do is to get Liancheng from Fujin." So the next day, early in the morning, Xingdai took Nanny Li to Fujin's room. Fujin was dressing up, and Xingdai saluted when she saw her: "Xingdai greets Fujin." Fujin stood up quickly. "The princess doesn't need to be too polite." "Er Niang, I'm here today because I want to discuss something with Er Niang." Xing Dai sat down beside her.Liancheng came from outside, holding a bowl of hot tea in his hand, Xingdai turned her head and smiled at Liancheng, Liancheng's heart moved slightly, why did she feel that the princess's smile was a bit strange. "Princess, it's okay to say." Fujin sat next to Xingdai and said with a smile. Xing Dai's gaze fell on Liancheng all the time, and she said slowly: "I want to ask Fujin for someone. In my princess building, there is no other smart and caring person except Nanny Li." "Oh?" Fujin's heart skipped a beat, with a vague premonition, "Who does the princess want?" Xing Dai pointed at Liancheng. "Liancheng, since she gave her life to save me last time, I can't forget her kindness. I really want her to come to the princess building." "It's just that the suet jade bracelet was involved in Liancheng last time, I'm afraid—" Fujin pondered, somewhat unable to figure out what Xingdai wanted to do. Xing Dai smiled softly: "Hey, that matter has been exposed long ago, and no one mentioned it again. Liancheng, would you like to come to my princess building?" Liancheng was quite complicated in his mind. Going to the princess building meant facing Hengtai all day long, so what should he do if he was exposed: "I..." Seeing her hesitate, Xing Dai said, "What? Don't you want to? Are you still blaming me?" Liancheng quickly shook his head and said, "No, no, princess. Liancheng is willing to go to the princess building to serve the princess." There was a cold smile on the corner of Xing Dai's mouth, she stood up and said with a smile: "Then, from tonight onwards, come and serve me in my room." After she finished speaking, she took Nanny Li and left. Liancheng and Fujin looked at each other, Fujin's expression was not very good, she guessed that Xingdai knew something, but if she really knew something, Liancheng would be the second Xiaoxue, but she didn't seem to have anything wrong. Although Fujin felt that something was wrong, the princess opened his mouth and had no choice but to tell Liancheng to take good care of the princess, and to restrain himself, not to show his feet. Liancheng was worried all day, it was getting late, and the mansion had already lit the lantern fire, Liancheng sighed, closed the door of the upper and lower rooms, and went straight to the princess building. She pushed open the door of Xingdai's room, and saw Xingdai wearing sexy clothes as thin as cicada's wings, and seeing Liancheng coming in, Xingdai smiled and asked, "Liancheng, am I beautiful?" Liancheng knew that she was wearing this dress for Hengtai to see. Although she felt a little uncomfortable, she still said truthfully: "The princess is born with beauty, and she is unparalleled in beauty." With Liancheng's praise, the princess winked even more coquettishly. "You know, this dress was given to me by the empress. She said, if my son-in-law sees this dress, he will only spoil me more and more! Let me tell you, my son-in-law really likes it very much!" While she was talking, she suddenly rushed over to hug Liancheng, and with a low voice approaching Liancheng's ear, she said ambiguously, "He is so bad! He likes to hug me like this, with his body against his body, and he also likes to touch me." .” Liancheng was embarrassed when she heard that her hairs stood on end. She wanted to push Xingdai away, but she was just a maid, how could she push away the princess. Seeing Liancheng's obviously changed face, Xingdai sneered and approached Liancheng's neck: "I tell you, not only does he like to touch and kiss me, he also likes to bite me!" Xingdai bit down on Liancheng's neck hard. She bit it with all her strength, the skin on her neck was bitten, and the blood leaked out. Liancheng exclaimed, Xingdai seemed to have just recovered. He hurriedly said, "Oh! Liancheng, I'm sorry, I'm so forgetful, I'm so invested in it for a while, I've bitten you to death! Liancheng, you won't blame me, will you?" No matter how wronged Liancheng felt, he had no choice but to respond: "I dare not!" At this moment, Nanny Li came in with a large bowl of small walnuts, saw that Liancheng was there, and greeted with a smile: "Oh, Liancheng is here! That's the best! You see, my son-in-law likes to eat small walnuts , today I went to choose a good one and found a big pot, does the forehead eat this the most?" Xing Dai frowned and said: "Then why don't you ask the servants to peel it off and bring it in?" Nanny Li put the walnuts on the table: "Princess Hui, those servants are all rough and clumsy. Tell them to peel a few, and then use a hammer and hands to peel the walnuts. How can they be used? I see Liancheng is dexterous and good at peeling walnuts, why don't you ask her to peel them?" Xing Dai thought for a while, then nodded: "Since this is the case, then Liancheng, I'm going to trouble you! Don't use a hammer. You have to peel them off one by one with your hands. I know you can do it well. .” "Princess, don't worry, Liancheng will definitely do it." Liancheng hugged the walnuts and began to peel them. None of these walnuts had been cut open, and they were very strong. , the hand has started to bleed. Xingdai walked over to take a look, her eyes were filled with bone-chilling coldness, the kind of coldness that comes only after being betrayed, she used to treat Liancheng as a sister, but she hooked up with Hengtai behind her back and made Hengtai It is unforgivable not to touch her! "Liancheng, we are good sisters, you also hope that the relationship between me and my son-in-law will be good? If my son-in-law asks about these walnut kernels, what would you say?" Xingdai asked with a smile. Liancheng felt bitter, she nodded and said, "These walnuts are peeled by the princess herself." Xingdai hugged Liancheng's neck, and whispered into her ear, "Liancheng, you are really my good sister. Nanny Li, go and get the pair of gold silk gloves that the emperor gave me. Liancheng you Ah, with these gloves on, the wounds on the hands are invisible, and they are beautiful." "Thank you princess for the reward." Lian Cheng knelt down and thanked. Hengtai came very quickly, just after Liancheng put on the gold silk gloves.Hengtai strode in, Xingdai greeted him with a smile, and said softly: "Hengtai, it's rare that you came so early, don't you have a lot of urgent business to do?" Hengtai glanced at Liancheng, then set his eyes on Xingdai's face: "No matter how urgent the business is, you should spend more time with the princess." Xing Dai snorted, "I don't dare to delay your official duties, you should do your work first! I'm happy chatting with Liancheng!" Hengtai heard from Guo Xiao that Xingdai brought Liancheng to the princess building, and he came to rescue her.Hengtai laughed and said, "Princess, what's the matter? I'm already busy with my official duties. Why don't you ask these servants to go back, so I can have a good chat with the princess?" Xing Dai nodded and said: "Mother Li, you should take everyone to leave, Liancheng stay and accompany me to chat with my son-in-law." Hengtai hurriedly said: "Let's tell Liancheng to go down too!" Xingdai smiled softly, and said softly: "No need, Liancheng is not a servant, she is my good sister! You see, I also gave Liancheng a pair of gold silk gloves, how about it, isn't it beautiful? " Hengtai was helpless, he couldn't figure out why Xingdai did this, but he felt something was wrong, Xingdai asked Liancheng to come, maybe he discovered something. "Hengtai, it's getting late, let's take a rest." Xingdai said, her gaze brushing over Liancheng's face vaguely, "Since Nanny Li has left today, let's stay Liancheng, watch the night outside! Liancheng, okay?" Liancheng quickly responded: "Yes, I'll go outside right now." Leaving the princess's room as if fleeing, Liancheng leaned his back against the door, feeling oppressed and uncomfortable. Xing Dai's low laughter came from inside the room: "Forehead, what's wrong with you? Why isn't it as gentle and considerate as before?" Hengtai was very embarrassed: "Well, there are people outside, I'm not very used to it!" Xing Dai blamed and said: "Usually, Nanny Li stays outside every night, and you have no taboos. Why are you not used to changing Liancheng today? Forehead, do you have something to hide from me? Could it be... ..." "No, nothing." Hengtai said, turning over and pressing Xingdai under him, he kissed her lips, not letting her continue talking. Liancheng stood guard outside the door, and for some reason, tears just flowed down his eyes. She didn't know what went wrong, how it came to be like this, although she knew that Hengtai married Xingdai, they would be together sooner or later, she clearly told herself not to care, but if it was anyone else, it would be so embarrassing Jing will feel full of grievances. Obviously she knew Hengtai first, and Hengtai fell in love with her first, but because she was a wild girl from a brothel, she couldn't stay with the person she loved in a legitimate way. Liancheng opened the door and went out. It was a moonless night, and the surroundings were as dark as thick ink. She didn't see that there was a masked person standing there in a corner. What she looked at was where she was standing. Jiang Yichen resisted the urge to talk to her, he thought that Song Liancheng was already a stranger to Jiang Yichen.But now, after seeing her, he realized that it was he who became a stranger to Song Liancheng, and in his heart, Song Liancheng was still a special and irreplaceable existence. He recalled many things in his mind, each of which was related to her, and he was bewitched by her for some reason. Why would his beloved be obsessed with his hatred? He and the Fucha's family have a bitter hatred, but the one she loves is the young master of the Fucha's family, the one who broke his arm. Thinking of the harm Fu Cha's family had brought to him, Jiang Yichen's anger surged up, and he couldn't wait any longer. The next day, Jiang Yichen took the opportunity to sneak into the barracks. The Baile woman disguised herself as a man, and both of them pretended to be transporters of military supplies, and walked among a group of soldiers. At this time, the soldiers gathered together in small groups to chat, and there were more or less complaints between their words. "Hey, all kinds of food, meat and vegetables are less these days, can people still be full?" the soldier muttered. Jiang Yichen had been looking for an opportunity to join their conversation, and when he heard this, he pretended to hear it casually, and said in surprise, "You guys are so greedy, you've already given them away twice this month, why are you still not full?" The soldier snorted, "What? Twice? Today is the first time!" Jiang Yichen immediately put down the goods in his hand, pulled the soldiers to argue, "That's not right! Recently, the imperial court allocated a lot of food and salaries, and the South Camp and West Camp also distributed some wine and meat, you should have some too!" Bai Le responded at the right time: "I'm afraid someone has deducted the food and salary? Otherwise, why only one of the three supplies is left?" The soldier looked suspicious: "General Fucha has always been strict in running the army, I'm afraid he won't?" "It's hard to say. Recently, the Fucha family married a princess. It's a big wedding and building a building. The money is wasted like water. Do you want to use the court's rations to plug the leak?" Jiang Yichen's voice was also very uncertain, It looks like it's just a random guess. The soldier frowned and said, "Isn't the emperor giving money to this big wedding? Where does the general need to pay?" Seeing that the soldiers were not on the road, Bai Le was anxious in his heart, and said: "This brother is ridiculous. The emperor just rewarded some dowry, and the wool came from the sheep. The Fucha family must pay for the money? You see, this is Yesterday I went to Nandaying to deliver supplies, and the brothers over there gave it to me." Baile took out a jug of wine from the supplies. In this barracks, wine is a rare item, and the soldiers were naturally very greedy when they saw it. In addition, the food was indeed not as good as before, and many people began to be dissatisfied. "Withholding military pay, withholding military pay, withholding military pay... We need to go to the general to seek justice!" The soldier didn't know what he was thinking, and suddenly said this loudly, and everyone was silent for a while, looking at each other, with a few eyes. Very dazed. Bai Le was overjoyed, and hurriedly said: "Yes! They made money, so they don't care about everyone's life or death? We have to seek justice! Even if it's going to the emperor, we have a reason!" Jiang Yichen sneered, waved his long arm, and said to the crowd, "Go! Brothers, get your weapons and let's settle the score with the general!" The soldiers were so excited by them, they followed them forward in a daze, drinking while walking: "Yes! Go to the general!" Bai Le and Jiang Yichen looked at each other with a smile, and led the crowd to the barracks tent filled with righteous indignation. In the big tent, General Fucha and Hengtai were discussing military affairs. Speaking of the fact that the court’s military salary has been reduced by 20% in the past few months, the two are worried that this will continue. To continue. General Fucha discussed with Hengtai, and decided to write a memorial to the court tomorrow, asking the court to investigate the deduction of food and wages.Just at this point, a chaotic shout suddenly came from outside the tent. It was as if the shout almost toppled the tent. "What's going on?" General Fucha stood up and walked towards the gate of the tent. Mingxuan rushed in at this time. He was out of breath and shouted when he entered the door: "It's not good, Ama! There are hundreds of soldiers gathered outside and surrounded the big tent, saying that they want to punish corruption. , I want the general to give an explanation, no more withholding food and salary!" General Fucha was furious: "Nonsense! It's just nonsense!" Hengtai's face also changed a few times, and he took a big step forward. "Ama, my son will escort you out first, the sergeant is very emotional now, afraid of causing mutiny!" General Fucha was worried about this, the mutiny was no joke, this group of aggressive people must have come with bad intentions. "Ama, it's dangerous. Those people outside look very vicious." Ming Xuan just came in from the outside and knew the situation outside very well. General Fucha snorted angrily, opened the tent and went out. There was already chaos outside. The soldiers were already dissatisfied by Jiang Yichen and Baile. At this moment, so many people were venting their emotions. It will only get bigger and bigger, and Jiang Yichen and the others have repeatedly fanned the flames. At this time, this posture has already caused a mutiny! "Stop it!" General Fucha was furious, his face was black and red, "This is the opposite of the sky!" "Ama, the situation is not good now, I'll take you out first!" Seeing that there was no way to suppress the anger of this group of people, Hengtai had no choice but to take the next best thing and keep the general safe first. General Fucha didn't want to go like this, but he was surrounded by a group of soldiers after only a few steps forward, and they wanted to beat people indiscriminately. Hengtai and Mingxuan saw that this was not going to work, so they couldn't care less about whether General Fucha wanted to leave. They supported one side, and forced General Fucha to run out of the barracks. They ran in a panic all the way, and they didn't expect that Tong Jialin brought a thousand soldiers and horses to surround the barracks as soon as they left. Jiang Yichen and Bai Le had finished fanning the flames and quickly fled. The leader disappeared, and the soldiers of these mutinies suddenly had no leader. With a thousand soldiers and horses, Tong Jialin wiped out the chaotic barracks without any effort at all. Tong Jialin sat on the horseback very proudly at this time, and he was very proud in his heart. He murmured: "I didn't expect my sister's news to be so accurate! She is really a woman Zhuge Liang! I don't show my face this time?" It turned out that Tong Yuxiu had made peace with Tong Jialin a long time ago, and she had already turned to Jiang Yichen, so it was not surprising that she would know his schemes and plans. Tong Jialin packed up a bunch of soldiers, laughed and walked away. This credit, it really didn't take any effort at all. This mutiny in the barracks was not a trivial matter, and it reached the emperor's ears the next day.So in the early morning of the next day, the emperor Longyan reprimanded General Fucha angrily: "The army is unstable and people's hearts are scattered! Weng Hadai, you are the leader of the army! You are duty-bound!" General Fucha said anxiously: "Your Majesty! I have been wronged! How dare I..." The emperor shook his sleeves and said: "No need to talk anymore! From today on, you can go home and find a job! The camp is temporarily handed over to someone else to act as an agent. After the embezzlement of military pay is found out, the responsibility will be cleared, and then punishment will be imposed!" General Fucha still wanted to defend himself, but the emperor was in a rage right now, so there was no way he could listen to his words. "Stop talking! Back off!" "Yes! I obey the order!" General Fucha had no choice but to step aside holding back his grievances no matter how unwilling he was. The emperor turned his head to look at Lord Tong. "Tong Agui!" Master Tong quickly knelt down on the ground, and replied: "My minister Tong Agui is here!" The emperor glanced at General Fucha, and then lightly moved to Lord Tong's face. "Today, your son, Tong Jialin, led the army bravely and made great achievements in suppressing the chaos. He will practice more in the future. In the future, he will naturally have a place in the court. Today, I have my own reward. Come!" At this moment, Eunuch Li held Fuchen in his arms and walked up with the imperial decree in both hands. It seemed that the emperor had already made up his mind on how to punish and reward him. 李公公尖着嗓子念叨:“特赏佟家麟宫绸两匹,如意金锭两对,钦此。” 佟大人得意地扫了富察将军一眼,转身跪地谢恩:“臣代子谢皇上赏赐!” 富察将军一肚子的气,奈何发作不得,谁让做出这个决定的人是当今皇上,就算他们现在是亲家,君臣有别,也逾越不得。
