After the Disabled God of War Became My Concubine - Chapter 17

[Chapter 17]

Jiang Suizhou naturally didn’t know how Huo Wu Jiu scolded him in the secret letter he received. He happily touched a circle of fish in the Ministry of Rites, and when he returned to his house, he went into his study.

Because of a few conversations that day, Ji You’s attitude towards him was actually a lot closer, and today he also gave him two books, saying that they were lent to him to read together.

Of course, two unofficial histories.

Because of his own experience, Jiang Suizhou didn’t like Unofficial History somewhat, so he thanked Ji You for his kindness, so he put the two books away and put them on his desk.

Whoever likes to watch it, he doesn’t want to take the risk of this kind of inexplicable crossing.

What’s more, he still has other things to do—

for example, the secret letter sent to him by the two ministers.

He was extremely cautious. He took the letter early in the morning and put it away. Only at this time did he open the letter and read it.

——As he had guessed, the letter did not provide much useful information.

These two courtiers are not high officials, they are just in the Ministry of Industry. Therefore, this matter was taken over by the Ministry of Industry, the budget and who will be in charge, they can understand after a little inquiries. They did another calculation for Jiang Suizhou, and figured out how much oil and water Pang Shao was able to collect here.

Really considerable amount.

The two courtiers must have been a little anxious because of this, and asked him in the letter if they wanted to put some of their own people in the project.

Jiang Suizhou fell into contemplation.

According to what he knows about the original owner now, he will definitely do something, even if there will be no reward or even loss, he must try it.

But Jiang Suizhou knew that it was completely useless.

Pang Shao would never let any of his uneasy officials handle the money, so even if he inserted his own officials, he would not be able to touch the money allocated by the imperial court. In this case, the only thing that can be done to install eyeliners is to collect evidence of corruption and report it to the court…

However, what is the relationship between Pang Shao and the later master, and what is his relationship with the later master?

Obviously, this is to bump into the muzzle of the gun, for fear that the later master will not be able to grasp the handle of him.

Moreover, it will also push the officials who are inserted to the cusp of the storm, and it is very easy to be harmed by Pang Shao.

Before crossing, when he was reading history books, he had seen quite a few officials from Nanjing die unexpectedly in some projects, leaving nothing to chance.

Jiang Suizhou did not dare to take this risk with his life.

He pondered for a moment, then looked at the letter carefully, wrote down the numbers and names of the people, and put the letter in the dark compartment beside the table.

There are already many letters in there.

All are preserved by the original owner. Jiang Suizhou took a lot of effort to find this hidden space.

He also roughly determined the sphere of influence of the original owner based on the letters in it.

The letters stored here and the information collected are mostly fragmentary and have little reference value. However, according to the positions of the officials who received the letter, it is clear that these people have no real power in their hands.

These officials painstakingly collected the information and handed it over to the original owner, and the original owner did not live up to their efforts. All the letters in the box had traces of circled annotations, which shows how carefully the original owner saw it.

Jiang Suizhou put the letter together, locked it carefully, and started to reply to the two officials.

He did not directly refuse, but only said that if they were to stand still, he would act according to the circumstances. At that time, if we find an opportunity to insert them, we will inform them as soon as possible.

Fortunately, there were several letters that the original owner had not yet sent in the study, which allowed Jiang Suizhou to reluctantly learn his tone and finish writing the letters.

After writing, Jiang Suizhou read the letter and waited for the ink to dry.

He couldn’t help but sigh.

Nan Jing has been escaping the Yangtze River for three years, and has gradually come out of the panic that the country is about to be destroyed. It seems that he has accepted the current situation of dividing the river. Until more than a month ago, Huo Wu Jiu raised his troops south and broke the original balance, but when he was crossing the river, the reinforcements were cut off and he was besieged and captured.

Now, Beiliang doesn’t even have General Huo, so the courtiers of Nanjing are naturally more at ease.

This is also the case, Pang Shao embezzled and seized power with peace of mind, and the latter master was only interested in enjoying himself. The original King Jing and the courtiers behind him all tried their best to seize power with Pang Shao’s party in the cracks, trying to find a way out of the cloud.

However, none of them knew that they were exhausted and the building was about to collapse.

They were struggling to climb up in a high-rise building that was about to collapse.

Jiang Suizhou looked out the window.

He gradually accepted the fact that he was drawn into this history, and at the same time, he was also coerced into this torrent.

He gradually wanted to help them a little bit.

——When

he came out of the study, it was already dark. He handed the secret letter to Meng Qianshan, and saw that he was quite skillfully stuffing the letter into his arms.

Jiang Suizhou looked back with confidence.

Xu is because his body is weaker, so he doesn’t look good after sitting for a long time. Meng Qianshan saw that his lips were a little pale, so he asked thoughtfully: “Master has been tired for a long time, do you want a servant to prepare a soup pool for you?”

Jiang Suizhou felt a little tired when he heard his question, so he nodded.

Meng Qianshan responded again and again.

Jiang Suizhou went back to the room all the way, and saw that dinner was ready. Under the bright lights, Huo Wu Jiu was sitting there reading a book.

How many books can I have in my room? All of them were prepared by Meng Qianshan to relieve the boredom of the original owner before going to bed. The original owner prefers some obscure Confucian ancient books, which are all about the way of governing the world. Jiang Suizhou is used to reading ancient texts, so he doesn’t find it boring, but Huo Wu Jiu is different.

Where can people who are wielding knives and swords see this.

Thinking like this, Jiang Suizhou sat down at the table and asked, “Reading?”

His tone was cold, showing that he was not interested in what the other party was doing.

He also didn’t expect Huo Wu Jiu to take care of him, saying this is just an opening remark. When the words fell, he paused, and was about to open his mouth to instruct Meng Qianshan to send some books to Huo Wu Jiu, but suddenly heard a deep and mellow voice.

“Just look it up.” Huo Wu Jiu said.

Jiang Suizhou was startled.

He looked at Huo Wu Jiu in disbelief and saw that he was eating with a calm demeanor.

The words he had prepared came to his mouth, but was blocked by Huo Wu Jiu’s sudden response. For a while, Jiang Suizhou didn’t speak.

He saw Huo Wu Jiu raised his eyes and looked at him lightly.

I don’t know if it was his delusion or not, he always felt that when Huo Wu Jiu looked at him this time, his expression was still cold and cold, but the aggression in his eyes was much lessened, and the sense of oppression also dissipated. most of the time.

For a time, Jiang Suizhou felt that he was wrong.

He was stunned for a while, then quickly put away his surprised emotions, lowered his eyes and put a chopstick in his mouth, and said, “Well. What books do you read on weekdays? Let Meng Qianshan bring you some.”

He gestured with his eyes . Went to Meng Qianshan.

Meng Qianshan, who was behind him, nodded again and again.

But heard Huo Wu Jiu speak again.

“No,” he said.

After a pause, Huo Wu Jiu looked at him lightly, and then said, “I’m not used to being taken care of.” What

he said meant something – not only the matter of finding the book, but also the previous few days when he was in court. The sacrifices made, and people sending letters to themselves, the other party is naturally aware of it.

King Jing insisted on liking him, but he couldn’t control it, but he didn’t want to accept the favoritism and kindness from King Jing.

He has to repay the favors of others, and he can’t give up this kind of feeling.

However, when he saw Jiang Suizhou on the opposite side raising his eyes, there was a fleeting daze in his eyes, and then he smiled coldly and said, “Has this king ever taken care of you? Find something for you to do, don’t make trouble for me.”

Jiang Suizhou was very happy.

How can you not get used to it! For my life, there will be more places to take care of you in the future!

Get used to it sooner!

Huo Wu Jiu frowned, just as he was about to speak, he saw Meng Qianshan beside him blooming with joy, he smiled and nodded, saying that he would go and pick more for his wife later, so that he could choose.

Obviously, the master and servant did not intend to listen to his opinion.

Huo Wu Jiu lowered his eyes, Jiang Suizhou didn’t speak any more, after eating, he went to the side to drink tea to digest his food.

He is in a good mood.

When the night was getting dark, Meng Qianshan stepped forward and told him that the soup pool in the back room was ready and could go to bathe.

Jiang Suizhou responded, put down the book and went to the back room.

Passing around the silk screen, there will be steaming hot air. Under the heavy gauze curtains, the candles were already lit, showing a bit of ambiguity in the misty steam.

There is a sunken carved copper pool in the center of the back room, which is not too big, about three or five feet square. At this time, hot water has been placed in the pool, and there are still layers of petals floating, and there is a faint fragrance.

A few maids were standing there, as if they were waiting for Jiang Suizhou to take a bath.

…this is so inappropriate.

Jiang Suizhou retracted his gaze, waved his hand, and motioned them to go down.

The maids obediently stepped back, and there was no sound of footsteps during their actions. After a while, they withdrew to clean up.

Jiang Suizhou turned his head again, looked at Meng Qianshan, and said, “You also step back.”

Meng Qianshan was stunned: “Ah?”

This… On weekdays, when the master bathes, where is there no one to serve him? Except when he was in Mrs. Gu’s room…

Thinking of this, Meng Qianshan suddenly realized.

Why is he so blind! There is also a master in the room, where is his turn to serve!

He nodded again and again and raised his eyebrows with joy: “Hey! The servants will step back now!”

I don’t know if it was Jiang Suizhou’s delusion, but he always felt that Meng Qianshan’s expression…was so unspeakably wretched.

After he exited, Jiang Suizhou walked to the edge of the pool, leaned over to test the temperature, then took off his lower layers of robes and put them on the rack beside him.

At this time, there was no one else around, and he relaxed his mind and began to think about things again.

Two days later, it will be the day of the great court meeting. It seems that the matter of secret letter today should be discussed with those two aides…

While thinking, he undressed. Just as he untied the belt of his undershirt and was about to take off his robe, he heard a clear sound behind him.

Jiang Suizhou turned around.

He saw Meng Qianshan pushing Huo Wu Jiu’s wheelchair. On the wheelchair, Huo Wu Jiu was sitting there, expressionless, like a Buddha being pushed in.

Behind him, Meng Qianshan smiled sly and reserved.

Jiang Suizhou was stunned, and the next moment, he immediately understood what the grandson of Meng Qianshan was thinking.

He actually dared to bring Huo Wu Jiu and let him accompany him to wash the mandarin duck, mandarin duck and bath?

The author has something to say:

Huo Wu Jiu: He really has such dirty thoughts towards me.
