In the twenty-eighth year of Emperor Zhao of the Xia Dynasty, the sixth day of the sixth month of June.In the middle of summer, the capital is extremely deserted because of the rain that lasts for many days.A young man wearing a hat and carrying a few fat fish in his hands knocked on the door of the house of Xia Zhihuai, the household servant."
Captain Wang, it's raining so hard, why are you here?
The old man has just returned from the household department, and he is in the study to review the official documents. ”The housekeeper Xia Jiunan said as he invited people into the house.Wang Bing handed the fish to Xia Jiunan and said with a smile: "Taking advantage of today's rest, I caught a fish with flowers, thinking that Miss Xin'er likes to eat squirrel fish, so I hurriedly sent it over." ”"The old slave thanks Captain Wang for our young lady!"
Xia Jiunan was full of smiles."
Steward Xia is polite.I remember that Miss Xin'er's birthday will be in two days, and I will wait a while to ask the little girl what she wants, so I can prepare in advance. ”"Captain Wang is always thinking about our young lady, and he really has a heart.""
Lord Xia is kind to us, when our three brothers were young and vigorous, they joined the army, but they did not obey the military regulations, if it weren't for Lord Xia to intercede with An Guohou, I, Chen Sheng and Han Tong would have been dealt with by military law.""
Captain Wang doesn't need to take it to heart, my lord said that the past matters, don't mention it again, as long as the three captains reform themselves and be a big husband who stands up to the sky, the lord will be at ease.""
Definitely.""
Captain Wang, you will see the master for a while, but you have to be careful when you speak, the master is not in a good mood when he comes back from the next court.""
What, what's wrong?""
I heard that the money allocated by the household department to control the river was swallowed by the corrupt officials below, and the torrential rain has been invading for days, and the Yellow River is inevitable!""
Hey, in the end, it's the common people who suffer!"
The two stopped outside the study door.Xia Jiunan knocked on the door and said, "Master, Captain Wang asks to see you." ”"Captain Wang, please."
In the room, Xia Zhihuai put down the brush in his hand.Wang Bing pushed the door in.He waved his hand, "I've seen my lord!"
”"Captain Wang, you came just in time, this official has something and needs your help."
Xia Zhihuai walked out of the desk and pulled Wang Bing to sit down on the chair.Wang Bing immediately said: "My lord, just command!"
”Xia Zhihuai lowered his voice and said, "This official inadvertently learned a huge secret, which is related to my Chaojiang Sheji, but before there is conclusive evidence, not a word can be leaked to the outside.Captain Wang, you check for this official where a place named Jiuli is!
”"Jiuli?"
Wang Bingleng paused, and then responded, "Okay, when I take a leave of absence from the army, I will leave to find Jiuli!"
”Xia Zhihuai thought for a while: "Don't worry, the day after tomorrow is Xin'er's birthday, if the girl can't see your third captain, she will cry again."
The official has already written to the Marquis of An Guo, and the official cannot be the master of this matter alone, so when the Hou Ye returns to Beijing, he will discuss a countermeasure with the Hou Ye. ”Wang Bing's eyes were worried, "In this case, adults must be careful, Wang Bing is ready to be sent by adults." ”The ninth day of June.On the day of Xia Xin's birthday, the news of the Yellow River breaking poured into the capital and into the court!
On this day, Xia Zhihuai went out early in the morning and did not return home with the third lieutenant until late at night."
Daddy!"
Xia Xin pounced up, hugged Xia Zhihuai's thigh, looked up with a little face, and looked aggrieved and expectant, "Why did you go home, Xin'er's birthday gift?"
”Xia Zhihuai took out a longevity lock from his sleeve and hung it around Xia Xin's neck, then picked Xia Xin up, and said with a smile: "Xin'er, this lock is to ensure your longevity, no matter when, you are not allowed to take it down!"
”
