Chapter 23 Chapter 21

Lin Zhitong took a sip of porridge and said, "No. They have been playing games since they were young, and the emperor is not such a ruthless person. I said it last time at the Grand Master's Mansion that his brother's rebellion has nothing to do with gathering loyalty. Besides, the surname is Geng I haven't done anything to offend the emperor's brother." Lai San knelt down and said: "Ci Fujin! You have always been with the king like a tiger, you must not take these words seriously - now you are the only master of the Grand Master's Mansion, you have to find a way. The Grand Master is the prince's proton, Now the vassal kings rebelled, murdered and set fires in the south of the Yangtze River, and Geng Jingzhong severely injured the Xianglan Banner.

Lin Zhitong was silent for a while, and said, "Where is the magic field? I'll go and rob the magic field then." Lai San smiled wryly and said: "Ci Fujin, this is not Zhangzhou. If it is a vegetable market, there is still a possibility, but if it is of the rank of a grand master, it must be outside the Meridian Gate of the Forbidden City. No matter how skilled we are, we have no chance to break into the Forbidden City." .” "I know quite a few wives of high-ranking officials—it's strange. These people haven't come to me for a long time. Forget it, this group of people is not loyal."

"This group of people dare not speak, even if they do, it's useless. If the grand master really leaves, the servant will follow. Back then, the servant was educated and joined the army. Because of his humble background, he was bullied and killed an officer in anger. , It is the grand master who begged for love to make us today. How can we not repay such kindness!" Lin Zhitong thought about it for a while, and said: "Don't move, and the servant will follow you. Are you so worthless? It would be great if you could see the emperor. I'll go and beg for mercy. If you can't, then send him away." Just tie it up."

Lai Sanhu trembled, trembling and stammering: "Ci——Cian Fujin, slave—I dare not think so." Lin Zhitong glanced sideways at Lai San, and thought: With your "eight steps to drive away cicadas", you are afraid of this, as long as you want to escape, who can catch you?Find a small county town to pull a carriage and support yourself.Why are you trembling here?Raised his hand to let Lai San leave. Lai Sandao: "I'm going to resign——Ci Fujin, if you really want to ask someone, the Nalan family is considered a family friend. I heard that the eldest son of Nalan and you—that's the way it is spread in the city, and the servant doesn't believe it. If his family Willing to help you, maybe there is a chance of life."

Lin Zhitong said: "There's no reason to believe it, isn't it because Nalan Xingde likes me? You are so skilled that you are afraid to say a word. You really wasted these eight steps to catch cicadas. Alright, I'll ask that idiot .” Seeing that Lin Zhitong took the initiative to ask him out, Nalan Xingde was overjoyed. Lin Zhitong said, "I don't like you, I just want to ask you for help." Nalan Xingde said: "If you have anything to say, you can just say it, go to the sky to catch the moon, go to the sea to catch turtles, there is nothing wrong with it."

Lin Zhitong said: "There's something wrong, why do I want Yue Yue and bastard? I want to see the emperor, you help me arrange it." Lin Zhitong said lightly, Nalan Xingde was a person who never knew the heights of the sky and the earth, and immediately said: "It's a small matter. My eldest sister is a concubine in a shady place in the palace, and the Nalan Mansion has the privilege of directly entering the palace. I'll take you there tomorrow." Lin Zhitong said: "Okay, Lagou, I'll treat you to cotton candy." Nalan Xingde said happily: "Don't worry, it's a trivial matter."

Lin Zhitong was considered the most ignorant guy during the Kangxi period. After all, she was a Yuexi girl in the morning and a concubine of Wu Gong in the evening, and it was common for her not to know the rules.They happened to meet Nalan Xingde, the number one demon king in the capital, and the two of them directly took this sacred matter as a play.However, Nalan Xingde did not lie, the so-called difficulty of things in this world mostly depends on who is right.The Nalan family is the Yehenala family, also known as the Yehenala family, one of the "eight major surnames" of the Manchus in the Qing Dynasty. sharp point.There are many intermarriages with Aixinjueluo's family, and they have been in love and hatred for hundreds of years, so they are no longer pure monarchs and ministers.Entering the palace is like going from the bedroom to the lobby, it's really nothing.

Lin Zhitong entered the heavily guarded Forbidden City in the carriage of Nalan's family.After drinking a cup of tea at Nalan Xingde's eldest sister, Concubine Xiande, Nalan Xingde casually pointed to the location of the Hall of Mental Cultivation, and said, "The emperor will drink tea in that house in the afternoon. Do you want my sister to report?" Lin Zhitong said: "I'll go directly. If the guards stop me, I'll find a way." After speaking, he swaggered towards the Hall of Mental Cultivation, and he walked directly to the Emperor's Hall.Speaking of the heavily guarded Forbidden City, this matter is unimaginable. Even if the queen sees Long live, it must be a mighty force, and the agreement is notified in advance, and the etiquette is comprehensive.But such a little girl came from the concubine Xiande in the harem, wearing noble clothes, walking with her head up all the time in the hinterland of the Forbidden City, no one really wanted to stop her with this demeanor.The eunuch outside the Hall of Mental Cultivation murmured in his heart, but when he saw her smile neither humble nor overbearing, he was also dazed.There has never been anyone who broke into here alone. As for the person who dared to come to the emperor without being summoned, no one has ever dreamed of it.

The last eunuch outside the door finally remembered to ask a question, Lin Zhitong hurriedly said, "The emperor's brother is here, right? Go, tell him his sister is here." The little eunuch hesitated a little, thinking, where is there such a strange Gege?But there are too many stories and taboos in the palace. It is not impossible that this person is the dragon girl left by Lord Shunzhi among the people. It is impossible for someone to cheat here, right?The little eunuch thought to himself: Since he can walk directly to the Hall of Mental Cultivation with his head held high, and there are so many eunuchs in front who don't stop him, how dare he be troublesome.He knelt down and said, "Zha, Gege is auspicious." He turned around and went in to report.

The emperor stretched his waist and said: "Sister? She doesn't go to raise birds at noon, what is she doing here? Let her in, I am too tired of approving this memorial, and I just want to mess with her. San Dezi prepare some Sweet-scented osmanthus cake, that girl likes this." San Dezi beside him smiled and said, "Hey, it's been a long time since I saw Princess Gu Lun. This servant is called the dining room pass meal." While talking, he turned to the outside made a gesture. Then, the eunuch's voices came out one after another: "Send the princess to see you, pass the sweet-scented osmanthus cake from the imperial dining room."

Lin Zhitong walked in with the little eunuch, Wanfu greeted him. The emperor's mouth was wide open, and he said, "Ci Fujin—why did you come here?" San Dezi shouted nervously: "Come here, be careful to protect the emperor—Xiao Weizi, you are so bold, how dare you deceive the emperor!" Several guards rushed in and saw a woman standing in front of the emperor. looked at each other. The head of the eunuch Xiao Weizi flew over like a swarm of bees, and he said with sweat, "Ce Fujin? Your Majesty forgives me, but I really don't know that she is Cian Fujin. She claims to be Long Live's younger sister. I thought it was some Ge Ge who came from here?" Come here with the Queen Mother. Don't dare to stop her." Kangxi secretly marveled, thinking that this woman is really bold, and immediately admired her a little bit, he raised his hand and said: "This person is indeed my sister I have recognized - but how did you break through the guards and come here? " Lin Zhitong said: "Nalan Xingde brought me to see her sister, so I came to see my brother by myself." The emperor smiled and said in his heart: I'm afraid it's fake to see my brother, but it's true to save your husband.So, he pretended to be angry and said: "This Nalan Xingde is really outrageous, he doesn't have the knowledge of what his father Nalan Mingzhu is, but he is really a kind of lover who dares to love and hate." San Dezi nervously whispered: "Your Majesty—the Thirteenth Yamen said that she is the daughter of a rebel from the Tiandihui and a member of the Geng family. Now that she trespasses in the palace, should she be arrested first? To avoid shocking the dragon body. " The emperor glanced sideways and said: "Do you need to say that? This person is my sister, and I once slept at her feet in the Grand Master's Mansion. If she wants to rebel, I will die a long time ago—besides, Are you afraid that I, a man of the Qing Dynasty, can't beat a little girl?" The guards were still standing there, and the emperor raised his hand and said, "Let's all get out. San Dezi, you go out too. There is no need to record what happened today." The guards and eunuchs walked out, and San Dezi thought long live The Lord has always been cautious, he dared to leave this girl alone, there must be some tricks in the palace—and when he thought about the matter of wanting to kill Grand Master Geng, he suddenly realized.Carefully locked the door, and told the guards and eunuchs to stay away, no matter what noises were coming from inside, they were not allowed to approach. Lin Zhitong stared at the emperor and remained silent. While practicing calligraphy, the emperor sighed and said, "Miss Lin, you may not understand that there are some things that I can't handle according to my own temper. I grew up with Geng Juzhong, how can I be ruthless? But as the prince's proton, Since the vassal king rebelled, he should not live according to the law. The Qing Dynasty ruled the country according to the law, and everything can only be done according to the law." Lin Zhitong said: "Brother Emperor, you didn't say that when you were at my house last time!" The emperor raised his eyes and sighed: "No one can exhaust the transformation of fortune. Some things must change, this is the truth of you Han people. At that time, Geng Jingzhong hadn't rebelled, so naturally he couldn't do nothing. Now he has not only rebelled, but also Killed countless banner people. No matter how high-ranking and rich you let me raise the younger brother of the traitor, how can I explain to the fellow clansmen of the Eight Banners? What's more, his only side Fujin, that is, you, is actually the daughter of the Tiandihui. I was sued by the Mansion of Fanshenhou. What do you want me to do? You must know that San Francisco is now in chaos, and the vassal kings rely on nothing more than the conflict between Manchu and Han. But you dare to offend! Juzhong is now the target of public criticism, but you made two of them—but if I called you sister, this matter will end with Geng Juzhong, and the family will not be involved. Even your foolish father, I also told the spies of the thirteen yamen, if there is no blood debt, don't be embarrassed. You kneel down." Lin Zhitong sighed, not only did not kneel down, but also took two steps forward. The emperor only felt strange, but he was not nervous. No big man would be nervous about a little girl, especially a warrior like himself who had killed Oboi.Xuan Ye has always felt that his literary and military strategies are rare in the world. Lin Zhitong said softly: "Brother, can I beg you? I owe Geng Juzhong a favor, and I have been married to him for a while. Now I know that there is a reason for his 'arrow' and me. So I must be sure of this person." To save him, and by all means, I can make a deal with you in order to save him." The emperor sneered and said: "I am rich in the world, what can you exchange with me?" After finishing speaking, he couldn't help but look at the woman's face, food, sex, and sex, in fact, there is no distinction between the emperor and the common people. Lin Zhitong bit her lip, the shellfish and cherries complement each other, as if making up her mind. The emperor thought to himself, I'm afraid this is a trick of beauty.Seeing her fluttering white dress, she was also a little tempted, but quickly gathered her mind.For an emperor who aspires to surpass Tang Zong and Song Zu to be a wise emperor through the ages, female sex is the biggest taboo.If you change your policy for the sake of a woman, you will not be far from being a fool. Xuan Ye said: "You don't have to be like this. Although I am not Liu Xiahui, I will never take advantage of others' danger." Lin Zhitong blinked her eyes and said, "What are you talking about. My deal is to exchange your life for Geng Juzhong's." After speaking, he made a "asking hand". Xuan Ye couldn't believe his ears.Gently put down the brush, and then burst out laughing.I thought to myself that I have been practicing wrestling for more than ten years, and all the Buku here are the best among the masters, and the Balutu in Balutu are not my opponents.You little girl actually threatened to use force?This is really eager to save my husband, lost my mind. Lin Zhitong said something to offend him, and came to get him lightly.Xuan Ye was overjoyed, he casually grabbed Lin Zhitong's hand, and was thrown to the ground as soon as he touched it.He didn't know that he met this thin and thin girl who practiced martial arts at the age of five, played martial arts day and night, and met a master of Central Plains martial arts taught by a famous teacher! Xuanye stood up to resist, but was easily knocked down by two or three moves.Xuan Ye was extremely intelligent, and instantly understood: the Balut in the Barutu, the master in the master's hand, it's all a dream within a dream.Although I have practiced a lot of wrestling, there is another one that is real.Although there are many Buku, who really dares to throw the Long Live Lord a few times?Poor Xuanye, although he occasionally became suspicious, thinking that he was not as powerful as his subordinates boasted, but he was used to winning, so he took it seriously.Everyone is the same, regardless of their status, they will only believe what they want to believe.Now, after being knocked down by a little girl, I realize that my kung fu is actually a pile of dregs. Aixinjueluo Xuanye was ashamed and angry, looked outside the hall, wanted to call a guard, but also had a strong man's self-esteem, he didn't want to be seen by the guards and eunuchs.So, he lowered his voice and said viciously: "Bold! Do you know that I am the emperor." Before the words finished, Lin Zhitong twisted her ears hard: "If you lose, you lose. Why is the emperor not the emperor? Can the emperor not lose?" Xuan Ye said angrily: "We fought again, I was careless just now, I don't believe that a big man can't beat you little girl." Lin Zhitong said: "Okay." Then she stood up again. Xuan Ye gritted his teeth and stood up. Seeing Lin Zhitong's thin and small body, he immediately felt a bad breath.With great strength, he waved towards Lin Zhitong.This time it was Lin Zhitong's turn to sneer: "This is called Balutu, this is called Da Nei Master, and this is called Wang Baquan." Without pushing or dodging, he waved his hand lightly, taking all of Xuan Ye's strength away .Taking advantage of the gap, Yi leaned in and slapped the emperor resoundingly across the face. Xuan Ye spun around like a spinning top, the pain was not so much, it was just the first time in his life that he was slapped across the face, and he was stunned.Lin Zhitong patted on the big pillar of the hall, and there was a handprint on the pillar.Lin Zhitong blew on her hands. She had exerted too much force just now, and her hands hurt a little. She trembled and said, "Brother, is your head as hard as a pillar? Can this deal be closed? If you don't let Geng Juzhong go, the next slap I greet you on the head!" Xuan Ye said: "How dare you! How dare you have no father and no king!" He only heard a slap and was slapped again. Lin Zhitong smiled and said: "This heroine hates people who can't win and speak harsh words the most—you guessed it, would this heroine dare?" Xuan Ye touched half of his red and swollen face, but still insisted: "If you kill me, your whole family will die." Lin Zhitong said lightly: "That's not necessarily the case. Daddy and I know kung fu. Daddy may not be so stupid as to put down his boxing skills and be caught again by you. And I will go out to preach the imperial decree later, and say that you will reward me for riding back home, and then Just disappeared in the rivers and lakes. I really can't get out, and I exchanged my life with you today, and there is nothing wrong with it." Xuan Ye said sharply: "Are you really willing to break this law for a rebel like the Geng family? I tell you, these feudal lords can't win against me." Lin Zhitong said: "Which of you is the rebel and who is the emperor, it doesn't matter to me who wins or loses. I'm only interested in fighting, not fighting. That's what you guys do when you're bored. I'm a woman, I just know Who is my husband." Xuan Ye nodded after a while, and said angrily: "We Manchus are not good at such long-distance fights. Manchurians win the world by riding bows and horses and shooting. Then there is wrestling. If we are capable, we will come closer to wrestling. If you still If you can knock me down, I will agree to your request." This is already extremely rude, let alone life and death fights, there is no reason for one party to set rules.Just talking about whether a man and a woman should kiss each other, or ask a girl to cuddle and shake her, this is already a bit outrageous and almost a rascal.But Lin Zhitong said nonchalantly: "Yes, our White Crane Fist is the best at dispelling strength. No matter how close you are without kung fu, you can't beat me, a practitioner." At this moment, Xuan Ye only wanted to win a match, and he didn't care about his status, so he rushed forward and grabbed Lin Zhitong's shoulder.After all, Xuanye has some brute force, and he often plays with Buku and knows some skills.This time the gap was not so big. Lin Zhitong twisted several times, but couldn't shake Xuan Ye's arm. Xuan Ye was overjoyed and hooked his foot. Seeing that Lin Zhitong was about to fall to the ground, Zhitong thought that the Manchu Kungfu is like this, with a flash of inspiration, he used the inward cutting elbow method of Bajiquan twelve consecutive elbows to open Xuan Ye's hand.Another move of the white crane circling the bamboo, stumbling around behind Xuan Ye, using the Manchu wrestling technique I saw just now, with a hook with his little foot, Xuan Ye fell to the ground.Xuan Ye was still not convinced, he hugged his arms, and was about to fall.Lin Zhitong kicked Xuan Ye far away, and the battle was completely won.Xuan Ye curled up into a ball, Lin Zhitong turned around to grab the sweet-scented osmanthus cake on the coffee table and eat it. Seeing Lin Zhitong walking away, Xuan Ye ran out of the hall with pain, and was about to shout.Lin Zhitong was in a cold sweat, only then did he realize that he was not messing around with his seniors, and hurriedly resorted to Wudang's "Zixiao Shadow", this figure is really like a ghost.Hurrying in front of Xuan Ye, he took off Xuan Ye's chin and put it back on again, only then did Xuan Ye completely lose his courage.Lin Zhitong slowly took out the dagger from his boots: "If you are capable, you can play again with your soldiers. You can shout, you can escape, I hope you still have the guts. This is your last chance." He turned around and sat down on the emperor's dragon chair. Xuan Ye was shrouded in fear and numbness.Just like that year when he made up his mind to kill Oboi, countless people thought he was very brave, but only he knew that the so-called bravery mostly came from deep fear.If he died at the hands of a little girl, it would be easy to record in the history books; if he died at the hands of a little girl, he would be a laughingstock. After all, Xuanye is a person who has gone through great events, so he didn't get angry at the moment, sat on the floor, and said: "I'm hungry, give me a piece of cake to eat." Lin Zhitong knew that the emperor's kung fu was insignificant compared to her own, so she left the dragon chair and sat on the floor beside him with an osmanthus cake.Xuan Ye raised his eyes to look at Lin Zhitong, a woman actually dared to sit side by side on the ground by herself, eating cakes so casually, this feeling is really amazing - just like the warmth of playing with her friends that year. Xuan Ye sighed, and said: "The deal is done. I promise not to kill Juzhong." Lin Zhitong gave a soft "hmm", and said, "You shouldn't have killed him in the first place. You have so few friends, you can afford to kill him a few times." Xuan Ye smiled sadly and said: "Do you think it's heartless and unjust for me to kill your husband, my own little boy? There has never been an emperor who didn't kill someone. The emperor has the emperor's innocence, and the emperor has thousands of miles behind him." Lin Zhitong said: "I don't understand these things, but I think it's wrong to just get rid of innocent people with a big hat. If people are gone, where is the country? If people can be killed with trumped-up charges, then What's the use of wanting Jiangshan?" Xuan Ye was stunned, and said: "You are too simple, and sometimes naive. Do you think that this country really belongs to the emperor alone? This is shared by the nobles of the Qing Dynasty. The Aixinjueluo family is just a co-owner introduced. You have seen the concubines in my harem, and you are the first one who dared to call them ugly. The most frequently heard words are beautiful and beautiful, just like Barutu, the number one in the world, who I hear the most. But why do you want to marry them? ?Because I also need the support of their families. Their families also need me to support them—a girl like you can’t understand what I’m talking about.” Lin Zhitong said: "Understood, it's actually a gangster. You get together and share the meat. If you don't share evenly, they can replace you if you are not satisfied. If you share evenly, they will call you Mingjun. Right? ?” Xuan Ye said: "You're right, this country was brought down by the ancestors of the Eight Banners with their flesh and blood, so it's natural to fight the country." Lin Zhitong said: "That's right. The bandits in the book all say that." Xuan Ye stood up and said, "Daqing is Zhengshuo, not a bandit." Lin Zhitong said: "If you win, you will be Zhengshuo, if you lose, you will be bandits. Just like how the Ming Dynasty called you and now you call Zhang Xianzhong and the others." Xuan Ye laughed and said: "I really didn't expect a woman to have such a strange insight. If she hadn't seen it with her own eyes, she would have thought it was Huang Zongxi and Gu Yanwu who were heretics." Lin Zhitong said: "I'm not really knowledgeable. I just dare to say it. There are a lot of people who think this way. The farmers in the fields know that the officials are scumbags, but they don't dare to say it out for fear of being tossed about. I don't care. , I have been a heroine since I was a child. If you dare not say anything, why are you talking about a heroine?" Xuan Ye said: "It seems that Wu still can't help it - I have already promised you, and I will let Geng Juzhong go back to the mansion with you later. Don't spread the matter today." Lin Zhitong said: "I know. Men don't like to be defeated by women. You have to write an imperial decree, otherwise what will you do if you renege on your debt?" Xuan Ye opened his eyes and said, "I'm not a person who doesn't believe what I say, don't you know what you say?" Lin Zhitong said: "Not necessarily, it's even more shameless for a man to play tricks, he will say afterwards that it was a 36 trick - a shameless person will make up excuses for himself." After finishing speaking, he pulled out the dagger again. Xuan Ye tremblingly picked up the brush, feeling that the kings of all generations would be as shameful and humiliating as today.Gritting her teeth, she immediately threw the pen to the ground, and said, "You want me to write the certificate, but I won't write it—the alliance under the city, I will never sign it, and you will kill me." After speaking, she held her head up, I closed my eyes. Lin Zhitong was silent for a moment, then slowly put down the dagger.Xuan Ye still stood angrily, only secretly opened half of his eyes. Lin Zhitong sat on the dragon chair, and suddenly said: "Actually, Geng Juzhong is not my first man. My first man is in Zhangzhou." Xuan Ye opened his eyes and looked at the woman suspiciously. Lin Zhitong said: "Later, something happened to my family, and that man actually didn't want me, for fear of delaying his future. He only wanted to be a head catcher in the state capital—in fact, this head catcher was comparable to the one who had played with him since he was a child. me?" Xuan Ye forced a smile and said: "The state captors are at the top of the seventh rank. For such a hat, they don't want the beauty of their childhood sweethearts. It's really stupid." Lin Zhitong said: "Yes, I think he will regret it to some extent now. Even if he doesn't regret it now, tomorrow, the day after, when he gets old, or when he is about to die, there will always be a day when he thinks of me and sheds tears. If all the feelings are gone, Now, all the memories are gone, only the seat, the country, and the false flattery, you are really alone." Xuan Ye was startled, something inexplicable rose up in his heart.The scene of playing with Geng Juzhong and Princess Roujia under the big tree when I was a child flashed in front of my eyes in an instant, and I couldn't get rid of it.He knew that he was alone.Xuan Ye said softly: "I am the widow, and the widow is me!" Lin Zhitong stroked her hair and said, "Brother, I'm leaving. Since you agreed to let me go, you shouldn't have forced you to sign - don't let me, a woman, look down on you." After she finished speaking, she thought of herself Walk out of the Hall of Mental Cultivation.San Dezi said to San Dezi who was waiting outside: "Prepare to light ice, go in alone, the emperor's brother fell just now, and his face is a little swollen." San Dezi hurried into the hall, and saw the emperor standing silently by the window sill, staring blankly into the distance.San Dezi didn't dare to disturb him, and let the ice cubes melt in his hand. Xuan Ye sighed suddenly, and said: "Three changes in the dream of a hundred years of world affairs, a game of chess in thousands of miles. There are so many heroes in ancient times, and the mountains in the north and south lie in the mud!" San Dezi was startled and said, "Long Live Lord, what are you talking about?" Xuan Ye turned around and smiled, and said, "Huang Ama's poem was written by Lord Shunzhi, is it good?" Lin Zhitong went home and began to clean up the parcels, and searched a large bag of gold and silver from the Grand Master's Mansion, thinking that Geng Juzhong was a corrupt official anyway, if he collapsed, it would be useless to keep the gold and silver; There is always a steady stream of people coming over. On the second day, Geng Juzhong returned to the mansion.The few days in prison did not wear away his chicness, but his face was a little tired, as if covered with a layer of blue halo. Seeing him coming home, Lin Zhitong stepped forward, hugged Geng Juzhong lightly, and said, "It's good to be back, this heroine finally rescued my husband." Geng Juzhong also embraced Lin Zhitong with tears in his eyes: "Zhitong. Humanity is as deep as the sea, not half as long as lovesickness. There is still a limit to the sea, but lovesickness is boundless. In the past few days, I have understood the taste of poetry." Lin Zhitong slapped Geng Juzhong on the face, looked at the dazed Geng Juzhong, and said, "It's my loyalty to save you. I hit you for the sake of the child in my stomach. Now we're clean. Geng Juzhong, from today onwards, You walk on your Yangguan Road, and I walk on my single-plank bridge. This heroine has divorced you." After finishing speaking, she picked up the bag she had packed long ago and left the Grand Master's Mansion.
