Before he finished speaking, there was a burst of laughter: "No, how can the old man's skills be understood by ordinary people like you?" "Don't look down on me. You can just eat and wait for death. How about you?"

Let’s have a try and see who can be as good as this old guard?!” “Our old guard is the reincarnation of Jiang Taigong, and he can become a prime minister at the age of eighty. You dare to laugh, and you will be able to see it when the time comes!” “Old Guan”

Who is that kind of person? We always care about our abilities and don’t mention them, and we have nothing to say about our conduct.”…

There was a constant quarrel outside. The fifth prince threw away his chopsticks angrily, kicked the partition with his foot, called the shopkeeper in and asked, "Why is it so noisy outside?"

"It's a coincidence today," the shopkeeper said with a smile, "it's Lao Guan, that is, Guan Xiucai's fortieth birthday today. His former son Liu Tiezui from the east of the city made a prediction for him, saying that he would have good luck if he passed forty.

From now on, he will be rich and prosperous until old age. He is very popular, and because of this hexagram, everyone gathered here to celebrate his birthday, and we had too much wine."

The fifth prince frowned in disgust, and was about to wave the shopkeeper away when he heard the old manager in front of him shout again: "I'll just leave these words here! Don't ask too much, I'm telling you you can't understand either.

It doesn’t take more than a few years anyway, so let’s just watch!”

"I have to be fair about this," I don't know who answered: "Who is in charge of the big treasure should not be discussed by us. Let's not mention this. Old Liu, you shouldn't say that to the Fifth Master. You also eat and drink other people's drinks.

Noodle soup, if you say it’s not good for others, I’ll take care of you, right?”

"How can this soup, noodles, and drinks belong to the Fifth Master? Old Liu is right, let's not mention this. I tell you, if you want to read history, you must read history. Is that useless? It's useless!" Guan Xiucai complained.

With his stomach full, the fifth prince frowned even more when he heard this, but he lit the shopkeeper with his folding fan and said in a deep voice: "Look for an excuse to bring that person named Guan to me, just..." The fifth prince looked around,

This is not the place to talk: "Go upstairs to the teahouse next door." After saying that, he stood up and walked to the back door. It was so noisy outside that he was not in the mood to eat.

Guan Tong Guan Xiucai followed the shopkeeper to the private room on the second floor of the teahouse. He felt very dizzy. Could it be that Liu Tiezui really had an iron mouth?

The fifth prince was sitting in an armchair, holding a cup of tea, and looked at the scholar with cold eyes. The scholar was short, thin, and hunched over. His cotton robe was so dirty that he couldn't see its true color, and it was stained as he moved.

She is shiny, and her head is a bit too big compared to her body. The gray hair is messy and coiled on the top of her head, and it is hard to see what it is tied up with. Her forehead is extremely broad and bright, occupying almost half of her face, and the other half is crowded.

With a pair of eyebrows, a pair of triangular eyes, a sharp mouth and two monkey cheeks under a flat nose, a man of forty looks as old as sixty. The fifth prince looked at him, and he looked at him too.

The fifth prince has a pair of surprisingly bright triangular eyes.

"Just now I heard you say where you put your words. What did you put there?" The fifth prince didn't show even a trace of the disgust in his heart. Guan Xiucai showed a row of yellow teeth and said with a stern smile: "The student put that sentence

It means that the fifth master will be blessed with profound blessings, and he will be prosperous, honorable, and safe in this life." Guan Xiucai's ugly triangular eyes flashed with slyness: "The fifth master will definitely have his wishes come true."

"Young master, you are going around in circles. If you have something to say, just say it!" The fifth prince's words were not very polite. The smile on Guan Xiucai's face became even thicker. He bowed twice and said, "Fifth prince, if I say it directly, you will always

Don't be offended, if it doesn't sound good, just think that I fart, okay?" The fifth prince was almost angry, who is this person? How could he say that he farted first? The fifth prince impatiently shouted at him

He clicked on his folding fan and signaled him to just talk.

Guan Xiucai stepped forward half a step, with a pair of bright triangular eyes, he looked at the fifth prince and said: "The blessings of the fifth master come from heaven. Needless to say the blessings of today. If you want the blessings to be profound, you have to look at the blessings of the future. This difference

Sun Zhifu, the student thought the same thing as the fifth master, so he said those words." The fifth prince's face changed slightly: "Nonsense! Do you know what I am thinking?!"

"Is an elder brother like a father?" Guan Xiucai quickly answered. The fifth prince slowly put the cup in his hand on the table and stared at Guan Xiucai without saying a word. Guan Xiucai also looked at him closely, both of them

After staring at each other for a while, the fifth prince took out the folding fan and turned it a few times. He looked at Guan Xiucai and said, "I heard that you often go to Muji to eat water and eat my wine and noodles. At least you still know how to wish me well.

good."

"What Mr. Wu is saying is that this is the only place in the capital where the drinks, soups and noodles are of the highest quality and can also cater to students like students. The students must be looking forward to the good of Mr. Wu, and Mr. Wu will definitely do well.

"

"Tell me more about it." The fifth prince lowered his eyes and said. Guan Xiucai looked around before saying: "With all due respect, student, the fifth master is now married to a good family, and the people who have married into a family will naturally be the same as before.

It's different. The Fifth Master has to establish a career." Guan Xiucai paused, as if he felt tired talking like this. He blinked a pair of triangular eyes and looked at the Fifth Prince and said: "The Fifth Master is a cheerful person. If the students accept the Fifth Master's favor, they should speak frankly.

, The fifth master is not in a good situation now. According to the students, Wanyuelou's case will definitely go unsolved. The students think that Wanyuelou's assassination was because someone wanted to give fifth master a warning, rather than to take his life. "

The fifth prince sat upright after hearing this. What he said coincided with the discussion between himself and his elder brother! As Guan Xiucai spoke, he carefully watched the reaction of the fifth prince. Seeing his face becoming more and more serious, he continued: "This matter does not matter.

It's too secret. The students have inquired about it. The assassin is a single person and a dead soldier. It is not easy to raise a dead soldier. Those who can afford to raise a dead soldier must raise more than one. If there were two or three assassins that day, could the Fifth Master escape unscathed?

Besides, those who dare to attack the Fifth Master must not be ordinary people. But even ordinary people like students know that the Fifth Master must be protected by experts. If the person who does it is not a fool, he must know that such an assassination will not hurt him at all.

I don’t deserve anything from Master Wu.”

"Then according to your opinion, who is responsible for this?" The fifth prince nodded his folding fan and motioned Guan Xiucai to sit down. Guan Xiucai took a seat on the opposite side of the table. If the fifth prince did not have to give way, he picked up the teapot and poured a cup.

The tea came out, I smelled it, my face was intoxicated, I raised my head and drank it in one gulp, wiped the corners of my mouth with my shiny sleeve, then looked at the fifth prince and said: "I don't know, the fifth prince lives a comfortable life, according to the student's opinion,

There are quite a few people who want to give the Fifth Master a warning." The Fifth Prince sighed inwardly. These words were the same as his thoughts. It was true. From the eldest brother to the fourth brother, even Jingling Palace, and even the official family, everyone

There is suspicion, but no way to prove it.

"Are you a scholar? What are your plans?"

"The student became a scholar more than 20 years ago, and he is still a scholar now. If it comes to taking the imperial examination, he has no plans for it. The efforts to get a stepping stone have been wasted for more than ten years. The student has made a living these years by selling words and vitriol.

"Sir, if the fifth master doesn't mind, the student is willing to be the accountant for the fifth master, copying the secretary and keeping accounts, etc., at least the handwriting is better than the ordinary accountant." Guan Xiucai poured another cup of tea with a look on his face.

After enjoying the drink, he looked at the fifth prince and said, who smiled cheerfully and said: "You have such good eyesight, it's a shame to just keep accounts. You should help me with the accounts in the future. Jin'an County Prince's Palace happens to have a few staff, so I feel aggrieved."

Sir."

Guan Xiucai was overjoyed. He quickly stood up, bowed his head and thanked him, saying, "This Liu Tiezui is really stubborn. It turns out that the wealth of this student for the rest of his life belongs to the Fifth Master."

In the backyard of Qingfeng Building, not far from Houhu, there is a remote courtyard hidden in a green bamboo forest. Huang Jingjie led Grandma Xiong in front of her, silently all the way to the entrance of the courtyard, opened the door, and pointed at Grandma Xiong and the grandmother who was guarding the door.

The mother-in-law ordered: "This is Mother Xiong. She was sent by the princess of Jin'an County to visit Miss Liu. You can bring her in." The mother-in-law hurriedly agreed without passing the message inside, and directly introduced Mother Xiong respectfully.

Grandma goes in.

Liu Yuniang was half lying and half sitting on the bed, looking nervously at Grandma Xiong. Grandma Xiong had a gentle and friendly smile, but she did not greet Liu Yuniang. She only smiled slightly and said, "Mrs. Liu looks good. My surname is Xiong, and I am from Jin Dynasty."

Princess Anjun’s roommate, the day Lady Liu was injured, our princess was extremely worried, and sent me over to visit Lady Liu the next day. Lady Liu was still unconscious at that time, so I didn’t come in to disturb Lady Liu.

Our princess will have to check the pulse table every few days. The pulse table is getting better day by day. Does Mrs. Liu herself feel better?"

"Much better, thank you for your concern, Princess." Liu Yuniang was uneasy, mixed with unbelievable surprise, and replied cautiously. The curtain next to her was lifted, and two calm-looking women were waiting to come in with medicinal soup and gauze. Liu Yuniang hurriedly straightened up slightly.

He said: "Let's change the dressing later, it's so dirty."

"It's okay," Mother Xiong said with a smile, "I came here just on the order of the princess to see how Mrs. Liu's injury is doing." Liu Yuniang made up her mind and complied very meekly.

After the girl helped her up and took off half of her clothes, the two women began to skillfully change her dressing.

Mother Xiong was two or three steps away from Liu Yuniang. While looking at the wound carefully, she talked to Liu Yuniang in a very easy-going manner: "It's so serious! Lady Liu has suffered a serious crime. Why are there cuts on both sides? That's right.

Weared?"

"Yes." Liu Yuniang kept thinking in her mind. The princess sent her roommate here to see her injury, or to see her. It seemed that this serious injury that almost ruined her was going to make her happy.

!

"Hey! The wounds on both sides are almost the same, from the chest to the shoulder blades?" Aunt Xiong looked at it very carefully, but she didn't understand it very well. Liu Yuniang was afraid that without saying a word well, she would lose the chance to enter the palace of Jin'an County Prince Wu.

This is a rare opportunity for me, so I answered very cautiously: "It's from the shoulder blade to the chest."

"The shoulder blade goes through the chest?" Grandma Xiong seemed very confused. She stood there and turned around a few times and gestured: "How come it goes from the shoulder blade to the chest? You are protecting the prince, and the prince is behind you... I mean,
