Chapter 072: Murder with a Soft Knife


Yang Hu said nervously: "What's wrong, what's wrong" Qingji hurriedly waved his hand, frowned and thought about it, Yang Hu closed his mouth when he saw it, and stared at him with his knees, not knowing what he remembered.

In fact, as soon as Yang Hu said, Qingji should be remembered, because at that time the building was a major event, and the construction of the ancestral hall or the city of the gods, the ancestors, is an extremely sacred and solemn thing, its political significance is very significant, the people who are fortunate enough to be able to preside over the construction of this important building, the first thing is to be highly respected, the status is honorable, and it is best to be a sage in the world, which is easy to communicate with the gods.

It is precisely because of its extraordinary significance that those who are qualified to undertake the construction of such sacred buildings are equivalent to having extremely high authority in politics and officialdom, and have been recognized by the public.

Wu Zixu of Wu State personally went to supervise the construction of the city with the respect of Xiangguo, and it was for this reason that he personally went to supervise the construction of the city.

For he was there, and no one was more prestigious than him, and this glorious work had to be done by him.

Although there are specific people to do the planning and construction of the city, he must take the lead.

Otherwise, what kind of shrine to build is just to be a package foreman, how can Yang Hu be so happy However, it is precisely because of the solemn cultural surname of the shrine that it is a bit child's play to make a slave preside over such an important matter, and it is like giving someone a handle.

Once such a thing is used by people with intentions, especially in a country like Lu that attaches great importance to Zhou etiquette and regards the etiquette system as the foundation of the country, it will be tantamount to a political disaster.

Qing Ji knows the strict requirements of this kind of etiquette, and has thousands of years of knowledge more than others, and knows that there are many cases in history where many people have used similar methods to trap political opponents, go up to the wall to draw ladders, and roast opponents on the fire, and finally become the target of public criticism, so he can feel the conspiracy very keenly. changed others, whether it was Ji Sun Yiru or Yang Hu, it was impossible to think so prudently, Gongshan didn't come up with this trick, it was because he had a heart or not, but he didn't expect Yang Hu to show off to Qingji, and this Qingji had seen too many court dramas, so that he failed.

The more Qingji thought about it, the more inappropriate he felt, now Yang Hu is his biggest help, but there is no room for mistakes, but he is afraid that he will be suspicious, so he pondered for a long time before he asked solemnly: "Brother Tiger, the matter of building the Ji Ancestral Hall, is the ruling lord himself willing to be Brother Yu, or is someone proposing?"

Yang Hu was originally a very well-behaved person, and immediately heard the voice outside the words, his face suddenly turned solemn, and he hurriedly asked, "What's the problem?"

Without waiting for Qingji to answer, he replied again: "The Ji Temple was ignited by the spring thunder last month, and it was burned to the ground, and it was supposed to be rebuilt.

Because the matter of borrowing troops to attack Wu is now deadlocked and has been put on hold for the time being, Dr.

Mo proposed to the ruling lord to rebuild the Ji Temple as soon as possible.

As far as I know, after the ruling lord received the presentation from Dr.

Mo, he asked Huo Kai and Xian Yiping, the retainers of the house, and the two recommended them to the ruling lord."

At this point, his face had turned very ugly.

He, Gongshan Bufu and Zhong Liang Huai are the three most powerful retainers under the Ji family, they all have their own mansions and a group of subordinates, and they usually do not obey orders in the Ji Mansion, and Ji Sun Yiru still has some close retainers around him, this Huo Kai and Xian Yiping are two of them.

After Yang Hu got this mission, he also privately asked himself about the eyeliner he laid in front of Ji Sun Yiru, knowing that it was Huo Kai and Xi Yiping's recommendation, these two people were not subordinates of the three ministers because they belonged directly to Ji Sun Yiru, but they had always been close to Gongshan Bufu and Zhong Lianghuai.

Yang Hu heard that they recommended it, but he couldn't think of any unfavorable aspects for him, and thought that they saw that Gongshan was not ruthless and Zhong Liang Huai lost power, and they intended to buy it themselves, so he was quite complacent at that time, at this time, of course he knew that there must be tricks, and these two people were only afraid that they had the idea of harming themselves, but although they thought so, he still didn't understand the other party's conspiracy.

Qing Ji saw his face, and knew that the person who recommended him was probably not the same as him, so it seemed that his guess was indeed grounded.

So Qingji explained in detail the ritual system he understood, Yang Hu didn't know anything about these complicated etiquette, and after listening to his explanation for a long time, he suddenly realized, and couldn't help but gasp: He is not afraid of the opponent with a clear sword and a gun, how can he know that he wants to build an ancestral hall, and the grand etiquette religion also implies such a mystery and a great killing opportunity.

After Qingji finished speaking, he said: "Brother Tiger, this matter can be big or small, the crime can be light or serious, if it is used by someone with a heart, it can be used to create a momentum and directly target the ruling lord."

Now that the uncles and grandsons and Mengsun families are at odds with adults, even if it is not out of their minds, they will take advantage of it.

Of course, just such a thing will definitely not bring down the ruling lord, but Brother Tiger is the executor, at that time" Yang Hu had a gloomy face, and continued in a deep voice: "At that time, if the ruling lord speaks, I, Yang Hu, share the worries of the lord, and I have to ask for derogation, and the best ending is to return to the fiefdom of my lord and be a guardian, and I will not be allowed to step into Qufu for half a step from now on." ” Qing Ji was silent, what kind of person Yang Hu was, he only needed to understand that he didn't have to render it himself, with his wit, I am afraid that he had already figured out the cause and effect at this moment, and even knew who was behind the scenes to harm him.

Qingji looked at him calmly and asked, "Brother Tiger knows about the conspiracy, what are your plans now?"

Yang Hu raised his thick eyebrows, gritted his teeth and said: "Of course I won't disobey their wishes, I will go to see the lord, and I will say that my status is low, and I am not worthy of the great gift of building an ancestral hall, so please ask the lord to find another talent." ” Speaking of this, Yang Hu's face was twisted, you must know that this person has great self-esteem, and he is most reluctant to mention his humble background, and now he wants him to say it himself, and he already hates the scheming person in his heart.

Qingji shook his head and said: "It's not proper, this kind of etiquette, how could Lord Jisun not know that he listened to the recommendation of others and asked Brother Tiger to supervise the construction of the Ji Temple, first, out of trust in Brother Hu, I believe that Brother Hu can live up to his trust and build the Ji Temple as soon as possible; On the other hand, it was also Lord Jisun who didn't expect that someone had other intentions and wanted to trap Brother Tiger in injustice. ” Speaking of this, he sneered and said: "This kind of thing, it was originally his mother's pig's bubble, I want to blow big shit, I want to blow small pee, if no one has the intention of making trouble, it will be built, and it will not cause any wind and waves at all."

Therefore, Lord Ji Sun did not expect it, but also believed that his authoritative position would not be challenged by anyone, so he gladly ordered Brother Hu to do this.

If you reply to Lord Jisun like this, Lord Jisun asked, how can you say that someone is trying to harm you at that time, and what is the evidence, at that time, it is useless to let Lord Jisun know that someone is at odds with you, how can it be any good?"

The expression on Yang Hu's face became solemn, and he solemnly arched his hand and said: "What Childe said is that in Childe's opinion, what should Yang Hu do?"

Qingji tilted his head sideways and looked at the sky and thought about it, and said with a smile: "It's very simple, just plan and push the boat down the river." ” Yang Hu hurriedly said: "I want to hear about it." ” Qingji said: "Brother Tiger can go to see Lord Ji Sun, say what he is worried about, and then ask Lord Ji Sun to choose a well-known and respected doctor as the chief envoy of the temple, Brother Tiger can be his Sasuke, of course, the specific thing is still Brother Tiger to do, but there is such a god on it, let him open the sword and the arrow, no one can hurt Brother Tiger in the slightest."

When the temple is completed, Brother Tiger can share half of the work, and at the same time, he can win the favor of Lord Jisun, and he can eliminate this scourge without a trace.

As for the scheming man?"

Qingji rolled up his sleeves and carried the pot, poured wine into the cup, and said lightly: "I believe that with Brother Tiger's skills, he has his own way to slowly entertain him." ” Yang Hu was overjoyed when he heard this, and exclaimed: "A good move to push the boat down the river, this plan is very good, according to what the son said."

Childe, Yang Hu will go back. ” Qingji knew that this matter would not be done immediately, so Yang Hu had no intention of drinking, so he also got up to see him off, and walked to the door, Qingji said: "Brother Tiger, Qingji still has a word, I don't know if I should say it." ” Yang Hu said angrily: "Qingji Gongzi, you call me a brother, the tiger didn't dare to be, but although Yang Hu's identity is humble, this heart is by no means humble, Gongzi treats me sincerely, how can Yang Hu not know how not to listen to words, I know that Gongzi is for my good, Yang Hu is not a person who doesn't know what to do, and how can I be angry with Gongzi because of this, but it doesn't matter." ” Qingji nodded and said: "Brother Tiger, you came from a humble background, started from the lowest place, and walked step by step to today, although you are not a minister, you are more than a minister, although you are not a minister, and your power is more than that of the minister, this is of course Brother Tiger's outstanding intelligence, and he has achieved what he is saying today, but it has also attracted the jealousy and hatred of many people.

If it is an ordinary conspiracy and trickery, with Brother Tiger's wit and power, it is expected to be able to deal with it, only this lofty aristocratic etiquette system, complicated and profound, read all the books, I am afraid that I can't remember it completely, and how can Brother Tiger have time to remember the complete and sprinkled Zhou Rites and with Brother Tiger's status and power, there are fewer and fewer things that require you to do it yourself, and there are more and more major things that require you to make decisions in the middle and strategize.

Therefore, Brother Tiger should find a few more knowledgeable people to help, in terms of this time to help Qingji defeat Wu, Qingji also knows that it has always been Brother Tiger who has been helping each other, and running for it and contacting all parties, if Brother Tiger has a few think tanks around him, I believe that these things can be arranged more orderly.

If Brother Tiger wants to sit this son steadily, he must find a few smart heads to think about what you think, instead of you working hard and running around alone. ” Yang Hu settled down, although he had something in his heart, but he really listened to these words, and thought that after he became the de facto prime minister of Lu State, he did work hard, and what Qingji said was indeed true.

He arched his hand and said gratefully: "Son's good words, Yang Hu keep it in mind." ” Yang Hu hurried out of the door, got into the carriage and ordered, "Go to the Ji Mansion immediately." ” The carriage galloped away, and Yang Hu leaned back in his chair, anger, anxiety, and a deep sense of humiliation all surged into his heart.

Being hated and slandered, he can not care, he can not care, only this background, this lowly background, is a weakness that he can never overcome, God knows, building an ancestral hall on the order of the head of the family, can almost bury him because of this identity.

The pain buried deep in his heart was once again peeled out, eroding his self-esteem.

Qingji is right, the higher his status, the more he needs the help of talented people, and the support of the scholar class, rather than the cockfighting lackeys, brave and ruthless people, however, the real talented people are not only hard to find, but the real talented people are a few willing to serve his disciples to serve a family slave Although the right is the same as Lu Xiang, it is not good to say.

The wheels were rolling, Yang Hu's heart was like the wheel, and he didn't know how many times he tossed and turned, how many times he thought about it, and when the carriage was about to arrive at Ji's mansion, Yang Hu suddenly thought of a person, a person he thought would never see each other in this life, and it was impossible to work together.

Although that man is a nobleman, he is a broken nobleman, and if he is tempted by power, he may not stoop to serve him.

If you can use him for your own use, you don't need to be a think tank around you, just recommend him to the court as an official, clearly as a colleague in the court, and secretly an ally who shares weal and woe, so why not Yang Hu can afford to put it down, the only thing that is important is the actual benefits, thinking that this person can be used, the grievances of the past were suddenly put aside, and he immediately had the intention of soliciting, and he only thought in his heart: "Kong Qiu doesn't know if he is in his hometown in Shenyi at this moment, or he has come to Qufu."

The next morning, Yanghu Shi Shiran came to Yayuan again with a mouthful of food box, and in the box was a fragrant roast suckling pig, which was a gift he gave to Qingji.

Today, he is still full of spring breeze, but the joy is different from yesterday, yesterday was the self-satisfaction of contracting a major event, but today it is the joy of making the opponent eat a deflated joy.

The two sat down, Yang Hu thanked Qingji first, and then sneered: "These two people, it's because I haven't taken them to heart recently, so I almost suffered a secret loss, otherwise how could they have it to hum Gongshan is not ruthless, Zhong Lianghuai, sooner or later let them know how powerful I am." ” Speaking of this, he frowned: "Zhong Liang Huai said that he had seen Gongshan Bu Xian, and then went to Ji Sun Zifei's mansion to see Mrs.

Cheng Bi, I still don't know if Mrs.

Cheng Bi is in cahoots with him, if Mrs.

Cheng Bi becomes his fellow traveler, hehe" Yang Hu's words stopped here, and he didn't understand what he said, but there was a hint of fierceness in his eyes.

This is also the person he knows that he relies on the most in Qingji, and he will never do anything unfavorable to him, otherwise Mrs.

Cheng Bi, as an important relative of the Ji clan and the richest man in the Lu country, will not have much less power, even if he hates it in his heart, he will not even expose this trace of color in front of others.

Despite this, it was enough to make Qingji secretly frightened: Yang Hu was a family slave, but he didn't even care about one of the masters of the Ji family, and his authority and power were obviously much greater than he estimated.

Yang Hu and Qingji talked for a while, thanked him again and got up to say goodbye, as the busiest man in Lu Country, Yang Hu does have too many things to do every day.

Qingji sent Yang Hu away, did not go back to the inner room, directly put on armor and clothes, asked someone to prepare the car, and wanted to rush to Niqiu Mountain to hunt with the sons.

The leather armor had just been put on, and he was stumbling over the silk silk, and Ah Qiu led a boy in brocade clothes in, and the boy saw Qingji and said: "Qingji Gongzi, my master Ji Cheng Bifu wants to invite Gongzi to a banquet tonight, I don't know what Gongzi wants." ” "Mrs.

Cheng Bi" Qingji was tied to the silk silk fingers, and was slightly stunned: Mrs.

Cheng Bi invited me to a banquet He suddenly remembered the resentment that Fang Cai Yanghu inadvertently showed, Mrs.

Cheng Bi first gave a generous gift, and then invited each other again, what is the purpose of the three Huan of the Lu State Now the three Huan of the Lu State are contending, the situation is treacherous, no one in the Manchu Dynasty dares to rashly invite me to the banquet, for fear of arousing the suspicion of others, although this Mrs.

Cheng Bi is not an official, after all, she is also from the minister, why does she not avoid suspicion Rushing to the banquet before not understanding her intentions is easy to cause Yang Hu's misunderstanding, and Yang Hu is now the most important partner for Qing Ji, thinking about it this way, Qing Ji said: "It turned out that Mrs.

Cheng Bi invited her, and she was said to be generous to Mrs.

Meng, and Qing Ji was trying to make people return the courtesy, and I don't want Mrs. to go to the banquet again, Qing Ji is really scared." ” The little boy stood with a smile, listening to his politeness, only that he was about to take a mouthful, but Qingji's words changed, and said: "Qingji has made an appointment with your sons, and went to Niqiu to hunt together, and returned in the evening exhausted, covered in dust, it is really inconvenient to attend the banquet, please reply to Mrs.

Qingji, Mrs.

Chengbi's kindness, Qingji understands." ” The little boy was stunned, his wife was rich and beautiful like a flower, if she came forward to invite anyone, no one would refuse to go to the banquet, and he was speechless for a while.

Qingji turned around and said, "Cough Yingtao, take the gift I prepared for my wife, and go to Chengfu with the boy." ” Ying Tao was stunned for a moment, and said in her heart: "When did the son prepare a gift for me to give a gift?"

” Qingji's eyes drifted to the case, Yingtao suddenly understood, and hurriedly picked up the roast suckling pig that Yanghu had just sent, and smiled at the little boy who was in a daze: "Little brother, please." ” At that time, it was very important to pay attention to the exchange of gifts, if people give gifts, there must be a return of gifts, if the other party's reputation or status is higher than you, you have to come to the door in person, and you don't have to come to the door in person to celebrate the identity of the taboo, but this gift is necessary, at this time it is just to borrow flowers to offer Buddha, a matter of heart.

In Chengfu, received Yingtao's thank you gift, and asked someone to send him away, Mrs.

Chengbi carefully asked the child about inviting Qingji to the banquet, and heard that Qingji refused her invitation without care, and a sense of injustice in Mrs.

Chengbi's chest rose, she bent the two willow eyebrows, and snorted coldly: "Wu Guoqingji, what a big shelf, Mrs.

Ben's invitation, he will also refuse." ” Cheng Xiu had already heard her sister say that she had the intention of inviting Qingji, and she knew what a huge wealth it contained, so she hurriedly said: "Sister, he refuses to come, so how is this good?"

Mrs.

Cheng Bi rolled her eyes and said with a smile: "He refuses to come, I can't go to someone to celebrate the arrogance of the son, so Mrs.

Ben has no choice but to condescend and go to see him in person." ” Cheng Xiu was stunned when she heard this: "As a sister, it may not be as noble as the son of the country when he dies, wouldn't it be undignified for my sister to do this" On the side, Mrs.

Chengbi's big-headed son was pulling a roast suckling pig leg and chewing endlessly, hearing this, he was also upset for his mother, this son was born in a merchant family, he was exposed to it, and he also had economic acumen, and immediately said angrily: "He sent a roast suckling pig, and his mother sent himself to the door, it was too much of a loss, and it was a big loss."

Mrs.

Cheng Bi's apricot eyes widened, and she shouted coquettishly: "Pig-headed pig-brained, what do you want to go and study with the master for another ten years, it's really a thing that doesn't learn and doesn't have skills."

As soon as Ji Sunsheng heard that he would have to study for another ten years, wouldn't he have to read himself alive, so he immediately hugged his head and ran away.

Mrs.

Cheng Bi snorted, turned her head to Cheng Xiu and ordered: "Cheng Xiu, you send someone to guard me at the city gate, and as soon as Qingji returns, report to me immediately." ” Cheng Xiuying said: "Sister, don't worry, I will arrange for someone to wait at the city gate in a while." ” He looked left and right, and there was no one in the hall, so he took a step closer to Mrs.

Cheng Bi, and said in a deep voice: "Sister, this matter of Sheng'er will be a big trouble for us sooner or later, and once the incident happens, everything will be closed."

Now that Zhong Lianghuai and Yang Hu are fighting, God knows if he will reveal his sister's secret, once we are implicated, he can't get out at that time.

Now that we are operating under pseudonyms in Yueguo, Songguo, Chu and other places, those industries have grown, for the sake of everything, should my sister be" "I know," Mrs.

Cheng Bi said: "Alas, wait two more years, Sheng'er is still young, and when he grows up Chengren, although this child is neglecting his studies, he is actually very smart, and he is also very filial, how can I bear it" "Sister, Ji Sunsheng is not my sister's own flesh and blood, why should you" Mrs.

Cheng Bi was silent for a moment, and a piece of tenderness and solemnity of her mother's surname faintly floated on her naturally charming face: "Cheng Xiu, although Sheng'er is not my biological flesh and blood, after all, I have raised him for many years, in my heart, I have long regarded him as my own son, how can you let me give it up" Cheng Xiu was silent when he heard this, sighed for a long time, shook his head and walked out of the hall.
