General's Good Friday

Chapter 70

He stared at himself and Xiaobai cautiously.

Uncle Chen laughed and said: "It just so happens that this old slave also wants to mention something to you and your wife. Although Xiu Ping has just arrived at the mansion and is not familiar with everything, but when I saw him yesterday, this old slave is quite good at settling accounts, so I wanted to let him stay here first." Do you think it’s okay to start with the accountant and learn to manage things slowly?”

General: "Huh?"

Xiaobai was also stunned at the side: "He...is in charge?"

General: "He's not..."

Xiaobai grabbed his arm and raised his voice: "Hehe, hehe... The general and I said yesterday that it's better to let go of that...brother's body deed, and give him some money to go out to live. Have you made arrangements?"

"Hey?" Uncle Chen laughed when he heard this, "This idea is a bit interesting, but Lord Weng bought him because there is a shortage of manpower in our house, so there are more people to work! I think people from Xiuping Even if he is good at quality, he has already come, so why send him away?"

The general became more and more confused: "Huh? But he's not..."

"So that's how it is!" Xiao Bai laughed, "That's because we didn't know, and we thought that there was no shortage of people in the house. If that's the case, then neither the general nor I have any objections, you can just figure it out."

"Hey, fine," Uncle Chen nodded, "Then we won't disturb you."

"Well, you go."

Xiaobai's face was full of joy, and he tightly grabbed the general's arm, grinning at the young man outside the door.

The young man was taken aback for a moment, then quickly returned him a slightly embarrassed smile, then lowered his head, and left behind Uncle Chen.

The general still whispered with doubts on his face: "Didn't we agree..."

"It's fine……"

"Huh? But..."

The general wanted to say something, but Xiaobai pushed him into the room.

"Why are you so stupid!"

After finding out the truth of the matter, the general angrily wrote a personal letter and sent someone to take it to the villa outside the city and hand it to the Lord Weng.

Xiaobai stood beside him, looking up at him as he finished writing the letter, showing a hesitant expression.

The general raised his eyebrows, and said angrily: "What's wrong! What are you looking at me for?"

Xiaobai shrank back instinctively, weighed in his heart for a moment, then quickly shook his head: "No...it's nothing, I'm just... just looking around..."

So, that night, Lord Weng returned from a banquet at the Zhuangzi next door, rubbed his forehead, took the letter from the maid, held it in his hand, leaned on the imperial concubine's couch and opened it, only to see a piece of snow-white letter paper, Flamboyant and flying, the general's two big characters: Nonsense!

"..."

Lord Weng couldn't help laughing at first, then took a closer look, then sighed softly, stood up and walked to the desk, picked up a pen and added a dot to the head of "帀" in the center of the character "Nao".

Near the end of the year, the DPRK has just undergone a lot of personnel changes, and the number of affairs has gradually increased. Even generals like generals have been dragged into the Habayashi Army for a few days to serve as Jianyang's defense staff. He has been busy for a few days, and the royal idlers like King Qingzhou, who are easy to be assigned odd jobs by Emperor Jingming, are even more busy.

But unfortunately, at this juncture, King Qingzhou suddenly contracted a cold and fell ill.

The news made Emperor Jing Ming very anxious, and he immediately handed over what King Qingzhou was supposed to do to King Youzhou who hadn't had time to escape. I was afraid that there would be a danger of turning into tuberculosis, and I was so frightened that I ordered the imperial hospital to make a diagnosis and treatment, searched out all the good medicines that could be used in the treasury, and wished that the entire imperial hospital could be moved to the palace.

As soon as this incident became a big deal, the whole Jianyang City immediately knew the news about King Qingzhou's illness. There were already a lot of gossip about him. The nice one is guessing that the king of Qingzhou is busy looking for fun and doesn't like to do serious things, so he deliberately pretended to be sick and absent from work. As for the ugly...

"Let me tell you, although the imperial physicians said it was tuberculosis, who knows if it was contracted from the flower street and willow alley... Hehe..."

"Isn't it! How can you get tuberculosis so easily at such a young age? I also feel like...hehe..."

Xiaobai frowned when he heard the discussion of those people at the other table, and said indignantly in a low voice: "Why are these people like this! It's too much!"

The general sipped his tea indifferently: "Hehe, my lord, his reputation has always been like this...Come on, Zhongda, it's rare for you to take a break. The dim sum here is good, try it more."

"But the lord is sick now, these people say that, don't they mean to curse him?" Xiaobai murmured indignantly, "What if... if it really becomes tuberculosis, it's hard to cure... In the past Uncle Wang across the street from our house died of tuberculosis, his family did not dare to keep even a single belonging, and burned all the things he used, the whole family cried miserably..."

"Oh, look at what you said... the whole imperial hospital is watching, how can it really become tuberculosis?" The general patted him on the shoulder, "You, just stop worrying about it, the so-called 'disaster for a thousand years', like the prince The person who is here will definitely be fine! Zhongda, do you think so?"

Shi Zhong, who had been silent on the opposite side, put down the teacup in his hand: "My lord, auspicious man has his own destiny... he will be safe and sound."

[Shi Zhongda visits the prince's mansion on a daily basis and expresses his heartfelt feelings when the prince is sick]

Xiaobai and the general bid farewell to Shi Zhong and returned to the mansion, Xiaobai changed into his thick winter clothes while talking to the general.

"Just now at the teahouse, you shouldn't have said that."

The general ate the melon seeds nonchalantly: "What did I say?"

Xiaobai glanced at him: "That is to say, the prince! Anyway, I know someone, can't you say something nice? And... and 'disaster for a thousand years'... Didn't you see that Big Brother Shi's face has changed?"

The general curled his lips, thinking that he was a disaster in the first place, why don't people say it?

"You don't need to worry. Your Majesty has just let go of his remarks. It's not a crime for me to ridicule the prince in private. Besides, Zhong Da will not report on me. It's okay!"

Xiao Bai turned around and looked at him helplessly: "Are you really not understanding or are you pretending not to understand?"

General: "Huh?"

It seems that I really don't understand.

Xiaobai sat down opposite him: "Brother Shi is also very worried about the lord! The lord is really sick now and is in danger. How uncomfortable it must be for him to hear your sarcastic remarks!"

The general hesitated: "Zhongda is worried about the prince? Ha...why didn't I see it?"

Xiao Bai glared at him, stood up: "Hmph...Of course you can't see it..."

"Hey?" The general raised his hand and saw that he seemed to be going out, "Wait, where are you going?"

Xiaobai didn't turn his head back, and said angrily, "Go to the accountant!"

The general curled his lips: "Go to the accountant again... Are there so many accounts at the end of the year?"

He ran to the cashier every day... As for what?

And that newcomer Xu Xiuping!The general thought dully, when he went to the accounting room yesterday, he saw him and Xiaobai standing together, muttering and wondering what they were talking about!It seems that that person can't stay for long, it's better to find an excuse to get him away tomorrow!

Qingzhou Prince's Mansion these days is a little lonely because the prince is sick and closed the door to thank guests. Shi Zhong stood at the door for a long time, and only saw two or three imperial physicians leading his servants in and out occasionally. When the north wind blows, the whole street Only the dead leaves on the ground danced lightly, looking very miserable.

"Hey? Isn't this Lord Shi?"

Shi Zhong heard someone talking behind him, he turned his head and saw a young man tremblingly walking towards him with his hands shrunk.

This person looked kind-hearted, he thought for a while, and then he remembered that this person was also one of the close servants who accompanied King Qingzhou to Jingzhou that day, and he seemed to be called Zhao Feng.

This Zhao Feng can be regarded as a smart person next to the prince. On the way back to Jianyang that day, he had already vaguely noticed that the prince had some unusual affection for the guard of the Yulin Army. It's not uncommon, but a servant with winking like him, even though he doesn't know what's going on, knows that he should be more polite to Mr. Shi.

He asked with a smile on his face: "Are you here to visit the prince? Hehe, it's unfortunate that the prince is sick. The imperial doctor only said that it is best not to see guests and to rest."

"Really?" Shi Zhong nodded, "If that's the case, then I won't bother you."

"Hey, hey, don't go," Zhao Feng hurriedly pulled him back, and smiled again, "Since you're all here, although the lord doesn't see any guests, for the sake of saving face, why not go into the mansion for a while? Come with me, come with me..."

Shi Zhong didn't say a word, he enthusiastically pulled his arm into the palace gate.

"My lord, there is nothing I can do about it." Zhao Feng walked with Shi Zhong while sighing, "Since he came back from Jingzhou, my lord, he seems to have changed—by the way, this matter I have to ask you, we are privately guessing, is it because the prince was frightened when he was in Jingzhou, that's why he became so weird?"

Shi Zhong walked slowly: "This... I don't know either."

"That's it..." Zhao Feng continued to sigh, and led Shi Zhong through the garden, "We always feel that this disease is menacing, and it has something to do with the prince's lack of energy... You know , although our lord was not born mighty and strong, his body was strong before. How could he have been so seriously ill like this time? Sigh... Come on, let's go this way, near the backyard..."

Shi Zhong's eyes were heavy, and he followed him silently along a small gravel road, along a small clear lake, just after passing the stone bridge and bypassing a huge strange rock, Zhao Feng suddenly said "Ouch", reached out and stopped
