agent dressed as brother

Chapter 66 2 in 1

The children who had always been obedient still disobeyed their father's orders. They all knelt down and begged Zhou Yiyun. Zhou Yuhuang felt sorry for the emperor and grandson and had to pardon the "kneeling punishment" and change it to standing in the hall. They still disagreed. How can a junior let his father stand According to the reasoning, the result of compromise is that Zhou Yuhuang squinted and glared, Zhou Yiyun sat on a chair drinking fragrant tea, and the four children watched the exam papers.

Smiling and looking at the brothers who are attracted by words, I really don’t understand, what’s the use of chewing words, you have to beat the enemy with your fists, can’t stand on the city wall and read a few poems when another country invades, and you can surrender?He is not good at liberal arts, but he is very good at martial arts. Who is better at riding and archery in the whole school? He shook his head at the second brother who couldn't lift his shoulders or his hands. In the future, he really has enough to worry about.

"Smile," Zhou Yuhuang called his grandson who was looking around, "What can you tell?"

Zhou Yiyun covered his mouth and smiled secretly. It really didn't hurt this third son in vain. He was always willing to "share weal and woe with him." Zhou Yiyun, who was caught and punished to kneel, regained his balance. Grandpa Huang, his face was full of grievances. He knew that as long as he showed such an expression, Grandpa Huang would surrender. Sure enough, Zhou Yuhuang waved to him, ran over with a smile and lay down on his lap, and began to play tricks. Zhou Yiyun squinted, father Huang is obviously teasing the cat and Xiaoxiao is trying to be good, stretching out his paws at any time to call "meow meow", with skillful technique and natural expression, it is not the first time at first glance, the gap is too big, if he deserts in the middle, no punishment will be given Kneeling is also punished to write, and if you continue to get used to it like this, when Xiaoxiao is illiterate for a day, he will definitely tell others that Xiaoxiao won Zhou Yuhuang's amnesty.

A few hours later, Baobao picked up the sleeping smile in Zhou Yuhuang's arms, and after they left the main hall, "accompanying" Zhou Yiyun took up his post and was fortunate enough to have Zhou Yuhuang look straight at him.

"What do you want to see me for?"

Zhou Yiyun knelt down and begged, "Father, please give a light sentence to Concubine Li."

"Why?"

"She has a starling, so it's considered meritorious."

"Besides the old eight, you can't think of any other reason to intercede?"

"I dare not lie, the culprit is someone else, but I am not completely sure that I don't want to do something wrong again. There is a daughter in the son's house. I can't bear her to lose her mother, and I don't want her to turn love into hatred. As a father, I have to think about my children. It is also another kind of love. My son knows the meaning of my father and emperor's trip. My mother and concubine have passed away for so long, and it is difficult to get back by doing anything. She is kind-hearted and approachable. The minister and the first wife don't want to pursue it anymore, I just want to have a clear conscience when I see the starling again." Zhou Yiyun also saw that in the past two years, Zhou Yuhuang valued his own reputation, and he would not be willing to be branded as killing his wife and son. But it depends on who is asking for it. He intends to ease the relationship between several people. Zhou Yiyun doesn't want to talk about it anymore. Now that he has a wife and son and a happy family, his mother and concubine will feel relieved in the sky, right? .

Zhou Yuhuang looked at Zhou Yiyun and thought of that considerate, gentle and virtuous woman, and more than twenty years passed in a blink of an eye: "Your concubine mother is the first concubine I lost, she used suicide to make me value you This son, on the one hand, is dissatisfied with her self-deprecating life, and on the other hand feels guilty for neglecting your mother and son, but this is also the way of survival in the harem. If you want to do good things, you must be capable. Let others do it. Go back to the mansion if you have nothing to do, don't make my grandson wait too long."

"Father, the son wants to visit the concubine mother. She hasn't seen the son's first wife and several grandchildren yet."

"Okay, three days? One month? One year? What time limit is ten years?" Zhou Yuhuang promised his filial piety, but gave him another choice, either jumping up, or retreating into the abyss, Zhou Yuhuang also wants an answer. Giving and striving are two definitions at any time, and the same thing is acting voluntarily.Three days to deal with family affairs, one month to stay away from the fight but have already expressed a retreat position, one year may be a foregone conclusion, and ten years will never be seen again.

"Thank you, father, for making it happen." Zhou Yiyun knelt down and bowed his head, then grinned at Zhou Yuhuang: "Three days are enough!"

With a smile on his back, Zhou Yiyun happily entered the mansion with bags, boobs, and life extensions: "Xu'er, Xu'er..." Liu Xu frowned and hugged the three children, and said, "Shouting is a big deal!" It doesn't look like it." After taking it, Xiaoxiao admired the quality of the sleep, but Zhou Yiyun's loud voice didn't have the slightest effect on others, and there was nothing wrong with putting his face on his forehead.

"Xu'er, don't worry about him, this Xiaoxiao will fall asleep when he touches the book, the father has seen it several times, let the children find the clothes brought back from the palace, and tomorrow morning we will go to pay homage to the mother and concubine."

"Father agrees?"

"Of course, the concubine mother must be happy to see you and the little ones." Seeing him smiling, Liu Xu was also happy in her heart. , started to be naughty again at night, smiled and stretched a big lazy waist and almost fell to the ground, Liu Xu couldn't help feeling, when she was a soft ball, she could hold two at once, but now it is difficult to hold one, the child's growth is really Catalyst for adults.

Ling'er watched them gather together in the corner of the courtyard, biting her lips and still didn't have the courage to walk over to blend into that atmosphere. Just as she turned around and wanted to go back to the courtyard, she heard Liu Xu calling: "Ling'er, come quickly."

Linger burst into ecstasy, ran to Liu Xu with a smile on her face, and greeted sweetly: "Father, Daddy."

"Good boy," Liu Xu hugged her affectionately, turned her head and praised Zhou Yiyun, "Look at our girl's beauty and sweet voice, no matter how young she is, she will be virtuous and virtuous in the future."

"That's right, my father's daughter is of course very good."

"Who dares to say that my sister is not good? She is gentle and virtuous, ingenious and skillful, and her cooking skills are outstanding. Alas, whoever can marry a younger sister in the future really burns the incense."

Xiaoxiao gave up when she heard it, and struggled to hug Linger: "Who said that sister is going to marry, no, I don't agree."

"I don't agree either. Elder sister is our good baby, so we can't let others bully her." Bubu glared at his elder brother, criticizing his wrong words with his eyes.

"Daddy..." Ling'er buried her red face in Liu Xu's arms.

"Ling'er find some nice clothes, let's go see your grandma, pack up in a while and go back home quickly." After hearing what her father said, Ling'er was a little panicked, and raised her pale face: "Father, Linger's How can I have the qualifications to see Grandma Huang?"

"What is your identity? You have to remember that you are the eleventh prince's daughter, Baobao's sister, Bubu, Xiaoxiao's sister, nothing else." Ling'er hugged Liu Xu who was talking to her with tears in her eyes. It's good that I didn't forget her, and didn't dislike her.

Liu Xu doesn't like this kind of hierarchy concept, what's wrong with the concubine, he is still the concubine, isn't he also the first wife of the eleventh prince.Ling'er has seen him growing up since he was a child, and under the guidance of his mother, he has not lost his essence. He heard from Xiaoya and Taoye that when he was sick, he asked Zhou Yiyun's special permission to take care of him in front of the bed all day long. .

On the way to the imperial mausoleum, Zhou Yiyun was in high spirits, and the children also smiled happily, explaining what they saw to Ling'er who had never been out of the house, "I'll buy whatever I like when I turn back" like a rich kid.

After arriving at the imperial mausoleum, Zhou Yiyun grandly introduced his wife and children in front of his mother and concubine's coffin: "Mother and concubine, this is your daughter-in-law Liu Xu, the most beautiful brother in Beijing, worthy of your emperor, right?" He is very powerful and famous, father and emperor look at him differently, you also like it." Pulling over the son and daughter, she continued to introduce: "This is your grandson Zhou Zheng, so I will grow up like your emperor's son. She is very smart, she looks like a prince hahaha, this is your eldest granddaughter, she looks so good, like you hahaha she is very handy, well-behaved and filial, this is your second grandson Zhou Ren, look at you The emperor is really a blessing from you. The second child is also like the emperor. He is good at studies, careful, smart, and lovable. This is your third grandson, who looks like your daughter-in-law. Look at how strong this little body is. , the punching and kicking skills are very good, but the brain is too honest to turn too much." Out of the corner of the eye, he smiled and started to stare, and immediately made up: "This kid has a sweet mouth, and the group of people who coax him love him the most." Praise After leaving the family, the whole family was mobilized to clean up. It was rare to come to see the mother and concubine and try my best to show my filial piety.

Liu Xu woke up in the middle of the night, and there was no one on the other side of the bed. She put on her clothes and went out to look for it. As soon as she reached the corner, she saw Zhou Yiyun sitting cross-legged in front of the coffin. He must have been chatting with his hoarse voice for a while. I listened to him talking about the hardships of living in the palace after his mother and concubine left. Although he was full of economics during his school years, he did not show his edge and kept a low profile wherever he went. He went out of the palace to live in the house to marry a wife and have children. The guilt of the wife and children, the excitement of going to the battlefield for the first time, the joy of the support of the first wife, the development of production in the Eastern Zhou Dynasty, the lightness of money, the recuperation with the people, the fighting spirit of cultivating power, and the current direction of the court... While weeping, it contained joy, sadness, sorrow, bitterness, mixed flavors, took out a handkerchief and wiped his nose: "Mother, concubine, you have a spirit in heaven to bless your father and emperor to live a long life, and there is also a man in the palace Your daughter-in-law, grandson, and granddaughter are healthy and safe, and your tenth brother can have hundreds of sons and grandchildren. If you think it is difficult, you can have a whole family of children and grandchildren. Tenth brother is the one who always protects the emperor when he is young. Don't make a mistake. Before you were alive, you always told the emperor to be merciful and forgiving. If the emperor did it, it would be worthless for you. You will be happy there, and you don't have to worry about it when the emperor grows ..." Liu Xu quietly walked back to the room, he didn't want to say that men don't shed tears easily, just because they haven't reached the point of sadness, Zhou Yiyun at this time is not the eleventh prince who resisted the imperial palace, but just a man in his own eyes. Toddlers who act like a spoiled child in front of their mothers and make small reports.No one wants to disturb the warmth, although nature and man are separated.

Zhou Yiyun returned to the bedroom at dawn, and after he fell asleep, Liu Xu also came to the coffin, knelt on the worship mat and put his hands together on his forehead. The woman he hadn't met made a narration. From his own point of view, he thought that he had no regrets in the world, and there was a spirit in heaven. After telling the secrets that had been accumulated in his heart one by one, he felt relieved and his mood suddenly became brighter.

Zhou Yiyun managed to get up after noon, ignored the children who were busy in the room, and only cared about eating at the table to replenish his energy. After drinking a cup of clear tea, he was in the mood to tease when he was full. The swollen eyes staring at it: "There are so many mosquitoes here, you can tell that my father's blood is pure at a glance, and he is staring at the most beautiful place of my father to bite hahaha."

Liu Xu carefully pressed the corners of his eyes a few times: "There are no ice cubes here, otherwise I'll go get a basin of cold water and you wash your face well." Pulling Liu Xu's hand off, the grinning face began to crooked: "Mother concubine sees you treat me well So good, she must be pleased."

"Eleventh Prince," the accompanying guard stepped forward and reported: "The mansion sent a secret letter."

Looking at Zhou Yiyun who frowned after reading the secret letter, Liu Xu asked, "Shall I ask the child to pack up?"

"No need," tearing up the letter, sitting quietly and thinking, Liu Xu couldn't bear his appearance the most, and would feel that he was superfluous, and he was not a roundworm in his stomach. Just as the other party thought, when Liu Xu was about to stand up to see the child, he heard Zhou Yiyun say: "Prime Minister He and the officials handed down the bullet to impeach Guo Shangshu of the Ministry of War." Seeing his stupid look, Zhou Yiyun showed a doting smile, He has never cared about these secret entanglements, so he would be confused if he suddenly said this sentence: "Prime Minister He has always relied on Empress Tong and the Crown Prince to preserve his position. Just after these two retired, he impeached the Ministry of War... to prove himself Do you really have real talents and learning, or did you start the internal strife first?"

"You want to deal with one of them? Otherwise, why do you care so much about whether they have internal strife?" Liu Xu was even more confused. One was the prime minister and the other was in charge of the military department. Neither of them could get along with Zhou Yiyun, and he paid special attention to the movements of the two of them. Work will not be wasted.

"Aside from brother ten, you are the one who knows me best." Squeezing Liu Xu's face and touching her earlobe, she loved it no matter how she looked at it: "I asked Shen Chong to do some things, and when this happened, I was a little worried that he would lose his composure and mess up his plan .”

Liu Xu glared at him, saying that he didn't know about this heavy man, but his daughter was fortunate to have met a few times, and that one named Yuan Yuan was also one of the concubines given to him at the beginning, Liu Xu raised her voice: "It's really protecting my shortcomings. Well, employing people use their own family members."

"Grandfather just cares about your sour appearance. He sent it to the door himself. It doesn't need to be in vain. Besides, he is an adjutant of the Ministry of War, and it saves a lot of effort to do some things." Bite Liuxu's tender ear, and whispered: " My father suspects that Baobao and the others’ disappearance are related to Guo Shangshu, and it takes iron and steel evidence to catch them all.”

Liu Xu pushed him away, and asked angrily: "It has something to do with him? Why didn't you say it earlier? It's a disaster if this dangerous person stays around, and you still let Baobao dangle in front of him every day? This is not a sheep in the mouth of a tiger." ."

"Hey, after listening to my master, Xu'er moved her whole body with just one hair. They are very safe. There are people outside the palace who have the emperor's grandfather and people who have the father inside the palace. What are you worried about? Their situation is worse than ours. All safe."

"Really?"

"Look at you, they are also my father's sons, don't I care?"

Liu Xu asked angrily, "Are the hidden soldiers not moving again?"

"It's just that I don't understand whether it's a coincidence or intentional that my father attacked Guo Shangshu as soon as he came out of Beijing."

"Empress Tong and the crown prince retire. Could it be the emperor's will?"

"No, my father has entrusted me with this matter, and he will definitely not interfere unless he has done something that makes my father taboo."

"Did the prime minister find another backer? Or did he intend to help you get rid of the serious trouble and plan to get closer to you?"

"Hmph, if he has the talents of Zhonglao and Liu Xi, he doesn't have to take the initiative to approach me. My father thinks highly of him. Father's appointment of him as prime minister is just of the same nature as the prince, and he has no real power to manipulate." Zhou Yiyun praised triumphantly. Zhou Yuhuang: "Father's power has never been sidelined. He is well organized. How could he employ people for no reason."

Liu Xu also agrees with this praise: "Father is diligent in serving the people, dedicated to the people, can be called a generation of Mingjun, then how do you think father will deal with it?"

Zhou Yiyun smiled confidently: "Turn hostility into friendship." He tapped the table and began to think again, something Zhou Yuhuang taboo?The Ministry of War uses troops?

In the main hall of the imperial palace, Zhou Yuhuang beckoned to the three princes who knelt down: "Sit next to the father. Above the court are monarchs and ministers. In private, father and son don't have to be so cautious." After staring for a while, Zhou Yuhuang said with emotion: " My third son has matured a lot, less harsh and more stable."

"All the sons and daughters have grandchildren, and they will run around the son with a straight face."

"Time flies, if you let it go, you will lose it!"

"My son can't speak, and I'm making you unhappy again!"

"It's okay, you came to see me because of Guo Shangshu's business?"

The third prince hurriedly knelt in front of Zhou Yuhuang: "I invite my father to enlighten me, Guo Shangshu must be recruiting people to frame me."

"Oh? The emperor is so sure it's a frame-up?"

"Father, Guo Shangshu, who is in charge of the Ministry of War, knows that it is a serious crime to use troops for one's own use. How could he do such a thing?"

Zhou Yuhuang stood up with his hands behind his back, and said bluntly: "Old man, I don't allow you to participate in this matter. You are my prince, so show your own attitude. The royal relatives must stand on the right side. Remember that you can see Who am I to give you this honor!"

"Father, calm down."

"I understand that as the prince who ranks first, it is easy to be valued and forgotten. The biggest problem is age. If you have meritorious deeds on the battlefield, you will be accused of being a royal, and if you do nothing, you will be accused of being a royal. You You also need to be more vigilant about what will happen to Brother Huang."

The third prince kowtowed, while begging: "Father, please calm down, Father, please calm down."

"Forget it, get up. How old is my great-grandson?"

"Go back to father, five years old."

"What else?" Zhou Yuhuang sat upright and continued to ask without raising his eyes.

The third prince pondered for a while: "Brother Dahuang's grandson is six years old this year."

"Go and talk to your brother Huang, and bring my great-grandson to the palace to study. The descendants of the royal family must be nurtured well. As for the Shangshu, I am waiting for his self-defense."

At the dinner table, Zhou Yiyun was a little unhappy, took a few mouthfuls of food and put down the bowls and chopsticks: "It's the third day, pack everything up, and I'll be back home in the afternoon."

Baobao gave her a wink, and Bubu turned and ran into the bedroom, and took out a 24-inch photo frame: "Father, this is a gift from Daddy and us to Grandma Huang, do you like it?" The gift frame was made of The thin wooden board Liu Xu found was carefully polished according to the size of a modern photo frame. Linger used colorful lines to decorate the edges. Inlaid in the frame are the family portraits hand-painted by the three brothers. It's not heavy, but the appearance of the characters is drawn soaringly like life.

Holding their hearts, Zhou Yiyun was full of praise: "That's great, your Grandma will definitely like it."

Before the imperial mausoleum was closed, Liu Xu looked back at the spirit form, silently saying that she would come to see you often, great mother.

After returning to the mansion, Zhou Yiyun brought Li Jin and Wang Fan to the study: "Why did they impeach Shangshu?"

"As soon as the eleventh prince left Beijing, more than a hundred generals appeared near the middle of the capital. It happened that someone from Guo Shangshu appeared there." Li Jin explained the information he had, and Wang Fan continued: "The subordinates have unannounced visits. However, they have no plans to enter the city for the time being, and they only live in a suburban garden outside Beijing, what kind of power they are... Sorry, the incompetence of my subordinates has not been found out yet, and I don't know if it is an enemy or a friend, so I dare not act rashly."

"Heh~" Zhou Yiyun smiled: "Go and call all the sons of the father over here."

After nightfall, three black-clothed figures by the wall of Jingxiao Garden avoided the patrolling personnel, threw out their flying claws and fixed them, then crawled along the wall to the roof and lay down to wait for the opportunity. The slight pain in the soldier's leg caused five people to lie down one after another. The opponent's defense was tight but the number of people was small. With an order on the ground, the door was gently pushed open, two figures rolled into the room, quiet and safe for the time being, the remaining one lightly closed the door, and the three joined together.

"Who! Come out!" A cold and deep voice sounded, and a small man gestured with his thumb down, announcing the failure of the mission.

"Zhou Zheng", "Zhou Ren", "Zhou Xiao", "Meet Uncle Jiu."

Ninth Prince Zhou Yihua turned on the lights in the room, looked at the three figures kneeling on the ground, and sighed: "This kind of behavior looks like it belongs to the old eleven family."

They replied in unison: "Jiu Bo is wise!"

"Come here, let me see what Old Eleven's child looks like." After tearing off the bag and Bubu's face towel, Zhou Yihua smiled: "Hey, it looks like Old Eleven, the big one is exactly the same, and this one is smaller than him. Be more delicate when you are young." Looking at it again, Xiaoxiao was puzzled: "Why is there a girl doll?"

Baobao and Bubu took a step aside knowingly, smiled and stretched their arms and kicked their legs. Although they were not close to his Jiubo's body, it was enough to show his anger. Finally, they pinched Xiaoman's waist and looked at each other angrily. Stare: "Uncle Jiu, I'm the father!"

Zhou Yihua smiled and took a closer look: "Really, this little body is really strong and handsome." He hugged each other again: "Old Eleven is really lucky, by the way, how did you come in? Yes? Uncle Jiu didn't hear the transmission."

"Hee hee, Uncle Jiu, my father gave us a mission, but unfortunately we didn't finish it." Bu Bu stroked Zhou Yihua's smooth chin with his small hand: "Father is too bad, Uncle Jiu doesn't have a beard."

"Oh, Old Eleven is messing around. If I hurt you by mistake, Uncle Jiu won't have the face to face others in the future."

Baobao smiled and said: "Uncle Jiu, don't worry, my father said that if our whereabouts are exposed, we will take out the token." With a smile, he curled his lips: "There is no challenge at all, my father was rescued under the noses of more than a thousand people. Uncle Shi's."

Zhou Yihua was a little surprised. These three children are really fearless. Not to mention other things, the entourage he brought should be very alert. It is a bit intriguing that they can enter his territory without making a sound: "Here Uncle Jiu, tell me how you did it without anyone noticing it?"

"Big Brother, Second Brother, let's talk," crawled into Lao Jiu's arms: "Jiu Bo sleeps in his arms." He was exhausted, so he started to act at night in the afternoon. He wanted to sleep, even though it was the first time. Meet, but he is like his father he likes.

Smiling and hiding away, Bubu took out the topographic map and climbed onto the bed to catch up on sleep. Baobao smiled at Laojiu: "Uncle Jiu, don't blame me, my brothers are usually spoiled. Excuse me, Baobao tell you something?"

"Okay, let's explain to Uncle Jiu."

Baobao spread out the topographic map and put all the tools on the table: "We checked the construction here and the distribution of soldiers in the high mountains in the afternoon, and there were two shifts of 50 people in each shift in the morning and evening. The training is orderly, and the positions of soldiers and generals have a certain range." Bao Bao pointed to the position marked in the picture, and then said: "The safest courtyard to enter is the fourth courtyard, but the most secretive courtyard is the third courtyard. In this yard, if there is any disturbance, the center can be immediately surrounded. By the way, five people in Uncle Jiu's yard got pear blossom needles. Don't worry, there will be no serious problems. The needle tip is just coated with some **, and it will be fine after a while. "

Lao Jiu stared at this detailed topographical map: "Who drew this map?"

"It's Boob." Baobao pointed to the doll on the bed.

"Then you are the commander-in-chief?" Baobao just smiled and acquiesced, then pointed to the baby in his arms: "Where is this little guy?"

"Smile, he's good at doing all the hands-on work."
