Chapter 875 Health(1/2)
From breakfast until the afternoon, people from various bureaus came to visit. People from Kyoto Prefecture helped Qin Xiao entertain them. After lunch, they were free, but the inside and outside of the house were already filled with gift boxes of various colors.
People who don't know may think that someone in Kyoto Prefecture is getting married or celebrating a birthday recently.
Qin Xiao knew that the total value of these gifts must be quite high. If they were all converted into cash, they would probably be enough to spend several lifetimes.
However, these gifts cannot be left in Kyoto Prefecture. They must be sent back as soon as possible. I wanted to ask people from Kyoto Prefecture to help send them back to my house, but I was worried about these people. If someone in the middle took away a few of them, I would not be able to do it.
It's a loss.
"Sister!" Qin Xiao was in a good mood when he saw Qiuniang. He walked forward quickly and saw that Qiuniang's eyes were red and she seemed to have just cried. He immediately asked: "Why are you crying? But someone is bullying you?"
Qiuniang looked at Qin Xiao and choked up: "They said... they said you had committed a crime and were arrested by the Kyoto Prefecture. I only found out in the morning, so I came here in a hurry, sir...!"
After glancing at Tang Jing, Tang Jing immediately bowed and cupped his hands. Qiuniang continued: "This gentleman is a good person. He knew that I came to visit, so he brought me here personally."
Tang Jing observed the words and expressions. Although he knew that Qin Xiao was not married yet, the beautiful young woman in front of him must have a close relationship with Qin Xiao. He cupped his hands and said to Qin Xiao: "Your Majesty, please speak to your wife first. I will retire. If you have any instructions, sir, please give me a loud shout."
, there are people outside the yard. If anyone comes to visit again, I will ask them to wait first." He smiled at Qiuniang again, then stepped back, and closed the door very sensibly when he left.
It's just that he was very lucky today. It was going to rain, so someone immediately gave him an umbrella.
"Sir, your family is here to visit." Tang Jing said respectfully at the door: "The official has already brought her here."
Qin Xiao raised his head and looked over, and saw a pretty young woman coming in from the door, with pear blossoms and rain in her eyes, and her eyes were red. Who else could she be if she wasn't Qiuniang?
Qin Xiao took Qiuniang's hand and walked to the table, sat down, and pulled Qiuniang to sit on one of his legs with a slight pull. Qiuniang was a little anxious and wanted to get up. Qin Xiao said with a smile:
"Don't be afraid. I am the owner of this courtyard now. They will definitely not come and disturb me without my order." He raised his arm and lifted Qiu Niang's chin with one finger. He saw that Mei Jiao Niang's watery eyes were a little red and swollen.
, said softly: "It's my fault for making my sister worry about me. In fact, it's nothing. I'll stay here for two days, eat and drink without worries, and I'll be out soon."
"They said you killed Prince Bohai, are they true or false?" Qiuniang was worried on the way here. At this time, she saw that the environment where Qin Xiao lived did not look like he was imprisoned, and she was slightly relieved.
Qin Xiao nodded and said: "The Prince of Bohai killed innocent people indiscriminately in our Tang Dynasty, and also set up a ring to insult the Tang Dynasty. On impulse, I stepped on the ring and stabbed him to death. But before the competition, he and I made a life and death contract.
This contract is with me now, and with this life and death contract, no one can do anything to me."
Qin Xiao then held Qiuniang's hand and said softly: "Who said I was arrested?" He raised his hand and pointed around and said: "Look, this is a prison?"
Qiuniang looked around and was a little surprised.
After all, this room is very spacious, antique, and very elegant. Not to mention the prison, even my own house is not as magnificent as this one. He was surprised and said: "Then... then what they say...!"
"But people in the mansion are talking about you, saying that although you are a great hero of the Tang Dynasty, the Bohai Crown Prince has a distinguished status. If you kill him, the Bohai people will not let it go." Qiuniang said worriedly: "Don't lie to me either.
, I know that although you have no worries about food and clothing here, you can't leave because you are under house arrest by them."
Qin Xiao smiled lightly and said: "The Bohai Crown Prince has a noble status, but in my eyes he is just a dead dog. I am still a Viscount of the Tang Dynasty, which is much more noble than a mere Bohai Crown Prince."
"What should I do next?" Qiuniang frowned and said, "Bai Yi is not in Kyoto. I don't know what to do. I don't know many people of high status in Kyoto. How about I go find Mr. Wei from Zhiming Academy? Bai Yi is here
I have been in the academy for many years and am familiar with many people in the academy. Master Wei is his husband and a scholar. I will go find him and maybe I can find a way to help you."
Qiuniang said quietly: "I know that you must have a reason for doing things, and they are not unreasonable. You will definitely not do bad things."
"Do you think what I did must be a good thing?" Qin Xiao looked at Mei Jiao Niang with a smile.
Qiu Niang nodded, Qin Xiao hugged Mei Jiao Niang's waist and said happily: "I know that even if everyone in the world doesn't believe in me, Qiu Niang will definitely believe in me."
"Qiuniang's family, that...Mother-in-law, is she very familiar with Zhiming Academy?" Qin Xiao asked Qiuniang doubtfully, although he and Qiuniang were not married yet, but he already regarded Qiuniang as his wife, so he naturally called his mother-in-law.
: "Otherwise why would Mr. Wei accept Brother Gu?"
Qiuniang said: "Actually, I don't know much about this matter. I don't know why my mother knew Master Wei. But Bai Yi has the old master taking care of him at Zhiming Academy, so I can feel at ease in the palace."
"Then have you met Mr. Wei?"
"Master Wei?" Qin Xiao shook his head and smiled: "Sister Qiu Niang, you really don't have to worry. I said it's okay. It's okay." After a pause, he asked softly: "By the way, you know your fate?"
Does the academy know it well?"
Qiuniang didn't know how to answer, so she thought for a moment and said: "My father is a scholar. He used to work as a staff in Xuzhou. Later, someone helped him find a job in Kyoto. However, not long after arriving in Kyoto, he died of a sudden illness.
." At this point, her pretty face turned sad. Qin Xiao held her hand and listened to Qiuniang continue: "After my father passed away, my mother took care of me and Bai Yi, and we had a hard time. Fortunately, an old friend of my father came to the door and arranged it.
I entered the palace. Less than a year after I entered the palace, my mother passed away. Before she died, she sent Baiyi to Zhiming Academy and gave it to Master Wei to take care of her."
"Brother Gu didn't tell you how old Mr. Wei is?"
Qiuniang shook her head and said: "You know Bai Yi's temperament. He loves books as much as his life. He is usually taciturn. He will do whatever I say and answer every question. However, he rarely answers questions about the academy. I also asked him about Wei Wei.
Master, but every time I ask about Master, he doesn’t say a word, as if he can’t hear me. I’m used to it, so I won’t ask any more questions.”
Qin Xiao was naturally full of doubts about Zhiming Academy.
"I've seen it." Qiuniang said: "I can't leave the palace when I'm in the palace, but every few months the palace will allow family members to visit in designated places. When Bai Yi was still young, the academy would send someone to take Bai Yi to visit.
Later, when Bai Yi got older, I went there by myself. I met Master Wei after I left the palace. Master Wei had taken care of Bai Yi for many years, so I naturally wanted to thank him and bought some gifts and went to the academy. Master Wei was a very nice person and a kind man.
Grandpa, but...!"
"But what?"
"But I can't tell how old Master Wei is." Qiuniang said: "Master Wei is the dean of Zhiming Academy. Zhiming Academy is not well-known in Kyoto, and there are only thirty or forty people in the academy. This is my first time.
When I met the Master just a few years ago, his beard and hair were all white. Logically speaking, he should be sixty or seventy years old. However, he had no wrinkles on his forehead, and the skin on his face certainly did not look old, just like someone in his forties.
years old."
But he also knew that if the academy really had any secrets, Qiuniang would definitely not know about it.
"But Master Wei likes to eat chestnuts." Qiuniang said with a smile: "Chickens roasted with sugar are Master's favorite. After I met Master Wei, Master invited me to eat in the academy. He liked the snacks I brought him very much. He
Tell me that his favorite is roasted chestnuts with sugar. If he goes to the academy again in the future, he doesn’t need to bring anything else. Just bring him a pack of roasted chestnuts."
"Roasted chestnuts with sugar?" Qin Xiao laughed and said, "You can see them everywhere in the market."
In fact, he has roughly determined that Hongye, if nothing unexpected happens, must have a deep connection with the academy. He is even a member of the academy. Gu Baiyi and Hongye must know each other. His elder brother-in-law comes from the academy and usually looks gentle and dull.
, but he is by no means a simple character.
During the Suzhou Rebellion, Gu Baiyi was able to contact the Taihu King and even mobilize the Taihu Army. This was certainly not something that ordinary people could do.
He has never met the Master, but with the two characters Hong Ye and Gu Baiyi in the academy, it is no longer simple.
Qin Xiao suddenly remembered that on the night he came to Beijing, he wanted to steal a kiss while Qiuniang was sleeping, but Qiuniang reacted quickly in an instant. The speed surprised him, but it didn't happen after that.
Taking it to heart, I suddenly realized that Qiuniang's quick reaction was probably related to the breathing method taught by Wei Fuzi.
"We have been together for so long, and I haven't seen you nourish your energy." Qin Xiao pretended to be disappointed and said, "You even hid it from me."
Qiuniang said hurriedly: "No, don't think too much about it, I... I'm just worried that you will laugh at me, so...
Qiuniang nodded and said: "Yes, so I would go to the academy to visit his old man during the holidays. Every time I would bring him a few packs of sugar-roasted chestnuts. He would smile from ear to ear as soon as he saw it. But.
The sugar-roasted chestnuts I sent were not bought at the market, I roasted them myself. Wei Fuzi said that the chestnuts I roasted were more delicious than others, and he was very happy. For this reason, he even taught me how to keep healthy."
"Health care?"
"He said that he is actually very old, but he still takes time to breathe out every day." Qiuniang said: "He taught me the method of breathing out, and asked me to nourish my Qi by myself in my free time without letting others know.
.”
Qin Xiao also knew that this was Kyoto Prefecture, and being intimate here was a bit too much. When he thought of something, he smiled and said: "By the way, sister, you came at the right time today, otherwise I would have been planning to send someone to find you." He pointed.
There were piles of gift boxes in the house, and he said: "These are all ours, and there are still ones in the yard. They are all good things anyway. I was just thinking about how to transport them back home, and you happened to be here. You can send ours to us later."
The groom will find some large carriages to bring all these things back."
Qiuniang glanced at it. Although she had seen it just now, she didn't take it to heart. She also didn't expect that these all belonged to Qin Xiao. She was a little surprised and said: "They are all ours?"
"Yes." Qin Xiao said: "There are antique calligraphy and paintings, precious medicinal materials, and fine silk and satin. The things are in a mess. I haven't opened some of them. When I bring them home, you can take a good inventory."
....!"
"How could it be?" Qin Xiao slipped one hand from Qiuniang's waist, pressed it against Meijiao Niang's plump buttocks, flicked her plump hand, and said softly: "It turns out that my sister has been secretly maintaining her health. No wonder she has maintained such a figure.
Well, if you want anything, it’s nothing. Wei Fuzi is such a kind person. He made my Qiuniang sister become so protruding and curvy. This is really an advantage for me...!"
Qiuniang blushed, and immediately grabbed Qin Xiao's hand that was squeezing her plump buttocks, and said shyly: "How long has it been, you...you are still thinking wildly." However, Tang Jing closed the door, and her heart
Xia Weikuan, in fact, she had already given her body to Qin Xiao. She knew that this little guy had many tricks. He never toyed with himself in different ways on the bed, and there were countless flirting words that made people blush. This little trick was really useful.
It didn't matter, she was used to it, and had been trained by Qin Xiao to be very docile. At this time, she was just worried about being seen.
"No, just stay at home and wait." Qin Xiao couldn't help but stroke Qiuniang's round butt with one hand, and whispered: "Take good care of your energy and keep your body in better shape, wait until I go back
I'll give you a hard time."
When Qin Xiao was caressing Qiuniang's butt in Kyoto, Bohai envoy Cui Shangyuan who was in the Sifang Pavilion was furious.
"Visit? Give gifts?" Cui Shangyuan was furious: "What do the Tang people want to do? Are they deliberately insulting us?"
Qiuniang was even more surprised, but knowing that she knew this kind of thing, she didn't want to ask any more questions. She thought for a moment and then said, "Then come here later and transport it back in broad daylight. If others see it, they will think you are a corrupt official."
Qin Xiao couldn't help but move forward, kissed Qiu Niang on the face, and said: "As expected of my good wife, you are thoughtful. You can send someone to take her away at night." He leaned close to Qiu Niang's ear and whispered: "
Why don't you come and stay here at night? There are many beds here, so two people won't be crowded."
Qiuniang blushed and rolled her eyes at him, but she still worried: "Are you really okay here? Do you really not need to go to Wei Fuzi for help?"
Zhao Zhengyu frowned and said: "That Qin Xiao has such a good relationship with officials of the Tang Dynasty? So many people want to defend him?"
Cui Shangyuan sneered and said: "What they are protecting is not a person, but what they think is the dignity of the Tang Dynasty. Qin Xiao killed the prince, and if the emperor of the Tang Dynasty ordered punishment, it would mean that Qin Xiao had done something wrong. Punishing Qin Xiao would be
