Chapter 98 Root Bone
The backyard of Xuanzhou Hongchang Inn.
An Fengchun entered the wing room and felt incredible about what he said, "Your Majesty, Shen Ge left the city and said he was going to Haolian Village to find Shi Qiqing's whereabouts. Before leaving the city, he went to the medicine shop to see his injuries. Our people can see Clearly, Shen Ge’s left calf is clean and has no birthmark.”
"No birthmark? Isn't he the grandson of Marquis Wu'an?!" An Linchun, the least talkative person, couldn't help but speak.
If Shen Ge was not Shen Yanyi, the grandson of Wu'an Hou, how could he look similar to Wu'an Hou's eldest son Shen Wenliang?
He Jiongming, who was reading the official document, was stunned for a moment, then said, "Yes or no, we will know when my father's reply arrives. If he is not..."
A hint of calculation flashed in He Jiongming's eyes, "Send him to Xingyang and play tricks on the Shen family so that the old man has no time to focus on court affairs."
Hearing this, An Fengchun and An Linchun also showed gloating smiles.
Shen Ge took Zou Shun out of the city to board a boat and paid the boat fare to Haolianzhai. There was a flood in Qi County and the boat fare doubled, but there were still many people on the boat, including those doing business and those looking for relatives. Yes. Shen Ge’s name is also for seeking relatives.
After entering the guest room on the ship, Zou Shun, thinking that he had not used enough force when fighting with Shen Ge and hurt him, said with a guilty conscience, "My boss, will I use medicinal wine to rub you?"
Shen Ge smiled and said, "I didn't go to the drug store because my legs hurt."
When Zou Shun heard this, he was even more unsure, "Where else is my boss injured?"
Zhuang Ming couldn't see Zou Shun's stupid look and said directly, "My boss asked Fake An Ziyuan's spy to see clearly that he has no birthmark on his legs, so he is not the person my uncle is looking for."
"Ah?" Zou Shun reacted for a while before realizing, "Ah! The person who was staring at the teahouse in the guest house at Sanjiekou is the person pretending to be An Ziyuan? I thought he was sent by some merchant."
Shen Ge nodded, "It's almost like ten. The fake An Ziyuan must be hiding in Xuanzhou City. Brother Ming, do you think this fake An Ziyuan is the prince An?"
Zhuang Ming replied truthfully, "My uncle has already sent someone to Anzhou to inquire, and there will be a reply soon. If not, after my uncle returns home, he will send someone to find out the identity of the fake An Ziyuan. Once confirmed, he will send someone to find out the identity of the fake An Ziyuan." The boss delivers the letter."
Shen Ge nodded and didn’t ask any more questions.
Uncle said that it was not convenient to reveal his true identity, but Shen Ge guessed that he was either the head of a big family or a high-ranking official in the court. Anyone who dared to be an enemy of his uncle must have an unusual identity.
That's why my great-uncle left so many people for himself and Lin Ruyu, just to prevent An Ziyuan from pretending to come over and kill them again.
Shen Ge stepped on the bench, put his hands on his knees, and lowered his starry eyes, carefully counting the clues related to Fake An Ziyuan.
He is my uncle's enemy.
He captured Mr. Dongzhu.
He pretended to be Cai An Ziyuan.
He plotted against the Lin family in Xuanzhou.
He colluded with Dong Wenyin of Qixian County.
He used official documents signed by Dong Wenyin and ordered the Fuliang water bandits, Ma Tou Mountain bandits, and Xianxia water bandits to follow his orders.
…
He has done so many bad things, so is the robbery of the disaster relief food also related to him? Who is he, and what is the purpose of doing these things?
If you can’t figure it out, let’s stop thinking about it for now. It’s important to improve your strength. Shen Ge stood up, stretched, ate, and practiced martial arts!
After dinner, it started to rain again.
Under the verandah of Lin's inner courtyard in the east of Xuanzhou City, Lin Ruyu squatted on her horse, concentrating on counting the water drops dripping from the edge of the verandah onto the green bricks and breaking into pieces...
One drop, two drops, three drops...
Forty-five drops, forty-six drops, forty-seven drops...
"No, I can't hold on anymore!" Mr. Lin collapsed on the ground and announced to give up again.
Xian Yin looked back at the incense burner in the room and said seriously, "Second Master hasn't even squatted enough for half a stick of incense this time."
"Pfft..." Mrs. Wen couldn't help but laugh and immediately held it back, trying to hold herself up for a while longer.
Lin Ruyu raised the corners of her lips and continued to count the water drops silently.
Finally, Xian Yin said: "It's time to burn half a stick of incense. Except for the second master, everyone else can rest."
"ah
Hahaha——" Mrs. Wen stood up holding her mother-in-law's arm, took two steps back and collapsed on the verandah railing, laughing loudly at her husband.
Lin Rumei, who had finished half a stick of incense, couldn't help complaining, "Daddy is not as good as me."
Mr. Lin jumped up in anger, "I am a standard horse rider, can I compare with your arrogance?"
"My child is also in the standard horse stance." Lin Dudong, who had squatted for half a stick of incense, endured the pain and puffed up his chest proudly, "A Heng and Brother Dafu are also in the standard horse stance. A Heng can almost squat for a stick of incense. Brother Dafu wants to squat.
Squat as long as you want."
Mentioning Dafu, Mr. Lin was truly convinced, "Dafu is a natural talent for martial arts training. Dad can't compare to him."
Second Master Lin's words were echoed by martial arts master Fu Xianyin, "Master Fu has a calm mind and excellent bones. He is a rare talent. Given time, he will become something great."
"Wow--"
A Dong and A Hengqi exclaimed in unison, but Lin Dafu, who was being talked about by everyone, was not affected at all and was still squatting on the horse step wholeheartedly.
In the hall, Mrs. Fang asked Xianzhen softly, "Except for Dafu, how are the other children's abilities?"
Xian Zhen, who was pressing Fang's acupuncture points to dredge his blood vessels, said truthfully, "The second girl and the two young masters are not weaker than others. As long as they are willing to work hard, they may not become first-class masters, but they can defend themselves well."
Not everyone is a genius, Fang doesn't feel any regrets, "It's enough to be able to defend yourself, what about Ruyu?"
When talking about Lin Ruyu, Xian Zhen's tone became more sincere, "The girl is smart and has a good foundation. She is good at using her skills and her perseverance is no worse than Master Fu. In time, she will definitely excel."
"It's enough for her to learn a few moves to defend herself." If she wants to stand out, she must work hard, and Fang is reluctant to do so.
Under the verandah, everyone who had had enough rest began to walk again. Lin Ruyu closed her eyes and started counting water drops again. The sound was really nice.
After practicing kung fu, everyone went back to their respective courtyards to rest.
After Lin Ruyu returned to the Qianhua Courtyard to bathe and change clothes, Yunjuan came in and whispered, "Girl, my aunt had a dispute with my uncle after she returned to the Zhang family. My uncle beat my aunt and alarmed the old lady of the Zhang family."
Lin Ruyu raised her eyebrows, "Why did they have a dispute?"
Yun Juan replied, "My aunt is dissatisfied with me for standing with Mrs. Zhang's side and not speaking for my aunt."
It was a commonplace talk again. Lin Ruyu was no longer interested and asked again, "Is there any movement in the Song family?"
Yun Juan shook his head, "Uncle Tai didn't mention the Song family, but Uncle Tai said that the prefect summoned all the adults to go to the Yamen to discuss important matters a while ago, and they haven't left yet. The news of the loss of relief food has spread, and people on the streets have
Everyone is talking about it."
Lin Ruyu nodded, "In less than five days, Chang Shi will summon the Xuanzhou medicine merchants and grain merchants to discuss the matter."
Her mother has not recovered yet, and she is afraid that someone will plot against her when her second uncle goes away. Lin Ruyu feels that it is her turn to represent the Lin family.
