Chapter 396 Sky Green Star Yang Xiong! [Requesting monthly votes]
"What the Taoist priest means is that Xiao Ke wants to fake death and leave?"
Chai Jin is very smart. After hearing Qiao Daoqing talk about death, he immediately thought of a way to fake death to escape, otherwise If he, a member of the former royal family, left the fiefdom rashly, the court would never let it go.
Qiao Daoqing asked:
"Is Chai Daguan willing to give up his current identity?"
"I am willing, just like a bird in a cage. If I can flutter my wings and fly high, I will naturally not miss this opportunity!"
For others, the status of a royal nobleman represents Jinyi. Good food and endless wealth, but for the people of the Chai family, they are like shackles.
Every move is monitored, there is no freedom, everything you say has to be careful, you are just a puppet on strings.
When Zen abdicated the throne, the Chai family was still a large family, but by Chai Jin's generation, the main line of the Chai family was only Chai Jin, who was alone.
Now that he has a chance to break free from this prison, Chai Jin is overjoyed:
"I dare to ask, sir, how to implement it specifically?"
For Qiao Daoqing, who is proficient in illusion, this matter is quite simple:
"After tonight, I will start pretending to be you and invite you tomorrow All the guests and friends had a banquet together, vomited blood during the dinner, pointed at Tokyo, and cursed Gao Qiu before he died. "
Dying in public will definitely cause shock, but scolding Gao Qiu will tell the world that it is true. Gao Qiu was framed and died.
The reason why I did not scold the Zhao and Song royal families or Huizong was mainly to prepare for the future.
When Liu Bei and the Song Dynasty confront each other, he will resurrect them on the spot and denounce Zhao Ji's family as a wolf-hearted person. The effect will be even more sensational and will greatly damage the legitimacy of the Zhao and Song royal family.
Even the dead were resurrected and angrily denounced the emperor, which shows that Zhao Song indeed had shortcomings in virtue.
Chai Jin put down his wine glass and raised his hand to Qiao Daoqing:
“It’s all thanks to Taoist priest!”
Since meeting Liu Guanzhang in the spring, Chai Jin has been making plans. To buy a horse, he secretly transferred the property that was difficult to liquidate to Qilin Village.
The transfer method was also very clever. Qilin Village sent someone over and pretended to be a hero who had defected. Chai Jin naturally entertained him with wine and food. Then he fell in love with him at first sight and presented him with a large amount of gold, silver or valuables that were difficult to cash out.
Through this back and forth, the property was transferred and Chai Jin became known as a prodigal son.
In the end, even Zhao Ji couldn't stand it anymore, and specially sent an imperial edict to warn Chai Jin to be frugal and not to bring disgrace on the face of Chai's ancestors.
Chai Jin respectfully accepted the decree, and then wrote a letter on the spot for the eunuch who announced the decree to take home, saying that the family was really in trouble, and asked his Majesty to allocate some money and food, and by the way, he would also send 180 pieces of silk to make a suit of clothes.
The clothes he is wearing now were saved by his uncle Chai Huangcheng when he was young. Showing off in the market every day is really detrimental to the dignity of the Song Dynasty.
Zhao Ji didn't believe even a single word of Chai Jin's letter, but if he didn't believe it, he wouldn't believe it. As long as the Chai family was poor, they would have to prepare the money, food and supplies.
Who allowed the ancestor to snatch the throne from others?
It won’t be long before the money and food will appear in the warehouse of Qilin Village, and some rare gadgets will be sent to the real world and put into the vault.
After half a year of hard work, the Chai Manor is now an empty shell and can be left at any time.
Chai Jin didn’t have many confidants. In the past, due to his personality, no one looked down on him, so he got the nickname Little Tornado.
After having a heart-to-heart relationship with Liu Bei, Chai Jin's situation opened up. He had a higher vision and looked down on the idle people in the manor.
Shi Xiu touched the gold-inlaid jade wine glass in his hand and said regretfully:
"But Pengju didn't follow, otherwise these things would be sent to the real world. Sir, I like it very much. "
Chai Jin waved his hand and said:
"This kind of wine vessel is nothing. I will look for better ones in the future... It's a pity that I can't go to the real world, otherwise Xiao Ke will definitely want to I went to worship sincerely and listened to your teachings..."
Qiao Daoqing waved his hand:
"You can go, but you can't come back. You have to either settle in the real world or go to another world...Chai Daguanren happened to be thinking about something this time when he was undercover. Let’s see whether to stay and build a career with the emperor, or to leave here and find a new direction.”
“Don’t worry, Taoist priest, Xiao Ke will definitely think about it seriously.”
Let’s talk. At about the same time, the three of them stood up and left the table. Chai Jin took Qiao Daoqing and Shi Xiu and said,
"I hit it off with you two. Tonight we will hold candles and talk till the end of time!"
After saying that, he staggered and took Shi Xiu and Qiao Daoqing to the backyard where he lived, and even took out his clothes for them to choose.
Qiao Daoqing was not polite, put on a set of brocade clothes, and soon looked like Chai Jin.
Chai Jin put on his beard, loosened his hair, and put on his Taoist robe.
Qiao Daoqing wiped it on his face, and a brand new Qiao Daoqing appeared.
After changing his identity, Qiao Daoqing deliberately chatted with Chai Jin for a while, learning Chai Jin's speaking style and accent.
"Master Chai, try not to talk tomorrow and just watch quietly. When I pretend to vomit blood and die, you can take advantage of the chaos and leave. Don't worry about me. I will get out before the coffin is closed and buried."
With Qiao Daoqing's ability, he would never use illusions again to get into the coffin and let everyone nail a phantom into the coffin.
When you turn around and resurrect, you can just dig out the coffin or blow up the tomb directly. Taoist priest Qiao will make another shocking appearance.
After one night, Qiao Daoqing officially stepped into the role of Chai Jin, while Chai Jin, wearing a Taoist robe, was holding a fly whisk and looking at his yard like a bystander.
"I got a good wine today. I'm going to invite the Cangzhou magistrate, the governor, the governor and other officials to come to the manor for a banquet. No officials, big or small, in Cangzhou can be absent. Anyone who doesn't give me Chai Jin's face will be fine. Waiting to be impeached!”
Since death occurs in public, the weight of bystanders needs to be increased.
If he fakes his death in front of a blind man, the court will most likely send someone over and even open the coffin for an autopsy to confirm that Chai Jin is dead and did not escape.
With the prefect and others as witnesses, the court would feel more at ease and would at most rebuke the lack of supervision.
After giving the instructions, "Chai Jin" asked the housekeeper of the manor to invite all the respectable gentry owners in Cangzhou to come over and make sure they didn't come back until they were drunk at noon.
After arranging these things, he personally supervised the servants of the manor to kill pigs and sheep, and began to prepare lunch.
Not far away, Shi Xiu said with some regret:
“This huge manor will be abandoned at the earliest opportunity. Don’t you feel bad about it?”
Chai Jin waved his fly whisk:
"What you see is the manor, what I see is the cage. Now I can finally let the birds fly in the sky, and the sea is wide and the fish can jump. I finally get rid of this cage."
He is like an outsider, Observing his manor.
It was found that many people's hands and feet were unclean. For example, the servants who slaughtered sheep killed five sheep in total, but they hid six hind legs.
There is more pork, and half of the meat will be hidden, either sold or secretly taken home.
As for wine vessels and the like, many people put them in their arms. Chai Jin almost couldn’t hold back several times when he saw this:
“I’m good enough to my servants. But they are greedy. No wonder they always hear that some domestic slaves will be beaten to death. They are really greedy and greedy.” , the mud and sand are falling, please look at it.”
Shi Xiu gave a few words of comfort and asked people to prepare six fast horses, feed them with good quality food, and tie them at the door of the backyard for easy escape.
If they weren't afraid of being too conspicuous, and because they had to cross several rivers to get to Zhending Mansion, Shi Xiu and Qiao Daoqing would have driven Liu Bei's Wrangler to pick up the firewood.
However, with the blessing of Kuai Ma, leaving Cangzhou for a short time is not a big problem.
As long as they leave Cangzhou, the three of them don't have to rush.
Soon, noon came, and celebrities from Cangzhou Prefecture arrived one after another. "Chai Jin" stood at the door to greet them, greeting everyone warmly, and occasionally lowering his voice to say a few intimate words.
"Qiao Daoqing" who was not far away looked at this scene and said with a smile:
"I don't expect Master Qiao to be so understanding of the world, but it's me. Now that I have escaped, I realize that I have little knowledge and no knowledge of interpersonal relationships. There is no redeeming feature.”
I couldn’t see it from that position before, but now as a spectator, I realized that the people in the manor only pretended to be polite and sucked as much blood as possible like flies.
When the prefect came with a group of heavyweight officials, the banquet officially began.
"Chai Jin" said a bunch of polite words, welcomed everyone, and toasted everyone.
When the atmosphere of the banquet reached its peak, he picked up the wine glass and was about to say some more toasts when he suddenly opened his mouth and vomited a large pool of blood. The officials present were immediately startled.
“Call the doctor quickly!”
“What’s wrong with you, Mr. Chai?”
“Why are you vomiting blood?”
“… …”
"Chai Jin" collapsed on the ground. Just when he was about to say something more, another mouthful of blood came out. Then he pointed tremblingly in the direction of Kaifeng and said with all his strength:
"Gao... Gao Qiu, Even if I'm a ghost, I won't let you go!" After saying that, he twitched and died.
Everyone present: "..."
By what circumstances, are we involved in the imperial court's conspiracy against the previous royal family?
Why is it Captain Gao Qiu? Does he have anything to do with Chai Daguan?
Damn it, come here for a drink, why did you get into this?
The magistrate's face was full of black lines. He wanted to drink to calm down his shock, but he was worried that his wine was also poisoned, so he had to put down the glass and stood up to stabilize the situation.
Now that we have encountered this kind of thing, we can only handle it as properly as possible to avoid getting into trouble.
Damn it, I know that this kind of wine involving the previous royal family is not so delicious. I hope the court will not hold grudges, otherwise there will be no chance of promotion in the future.
The prefect put away his thoughts and said to the superintendent:
"Send someone in quickly. Everyone in the Chai Mansion must be interrogated strictly. The real culprit of the poison must be caught... Pass it on, come and check on Master Chai. Human body."
While making arrangements, Shi Xiu in the corner suddenly said:
"How can you kill Mr. Chai and still want to seize his property?"< br>
Many of the servants who depended on Chai Jin to eat and drink and make money, Bang Xian, immediately became angry when they heard this. They lifted the table and cursed. They suspected that the poison was caused by these officials, and the two sides started to quarrel.
The instigator, Shi Xiu, sneaked to the back door with Chai Jin and ran away on horseback.
Before leaving, Shi Xiu did not forget to go to the kitchen and pack a lot of food.
“I learned from Shi Dalang. You should bring food with you at all times, otherwise you will easily starve.”
Chai Jin has never been hungry since he was a child and finds it very novel:< br>
“Can’t I just bring some silver to buy it?”
"What if you don't have access to the store, or if you lose your money, you'll be blinded, so it's better to bring something with you to be prepared!"
Shortly after the two left, Shi Xiu's walkie-talkie came through. Qiao Daoqing's voice:
"Look at what this means, the coffin will probably not be put into the coffin until dark. You leave Cangzhou and find a place to rest first. I will meet you after I finish my work."
< br>"Okay, Taoist Master, be careful, don't let them nail you into the coffin."
"I'm sitting on the beam and can't nail it in."
After leaving Cangzhou City, Shi Xiu and Chai Jin walked 20 miles west and rested in a temple on a hillock. This temple was built by Chai Jin with money. Unexpectedly, it would come in handy now.
“The distinguished guest is here, please have a vegetarian meal!”
Although the abbot in the temple was curious that the Taoist priest had actually entered the Buddhist temple, for some reason, he always felt that the two people were very friendly and hurriedly served tea He poured water and asked the young novice to prepare a sumptuous vegetarian meal.
Shi Xiu was naturally not polite and started eating as soon as he sat down.
Chai Jin, on the other hand, felt that it was not very decent, so he went to the merit box in the front store and stuffed two ingots of silver before he started to eat.
Although it was a vegetarian meal, it tasted pretty good. The young monk in the temple also took their horses to the backyard, fed them with concentrate and water, and took good care of them.
After eating and drinking, the two of them sat at the entrance of the temple and waited for Qiao Daoqing. Then they saw a man wearing a bamboo hat staggering towards the entrance of the temple. When he was about to arrive, his body tilted and he fell. on the ground.
Chai Jin subconsciously went to save people, but was stopped by Shi Xiu:
"Don't worry, high officials, I heard from Peng Ju that there is a behavior in the real world called touching porcelain. He is just lying on the ground to blackmail him. I think this person is very strong. If you wait a minute, he will be lying down for a long time if it is blackmail."
Chai Jin opened his mouth:
"What if he is really injured or sick?"
"That has nothing to do with us. I heard that Zhenren Luo from Erxian Mountain has lived for more than five hundred years. Do the officials know why he lives so long?"
“Why?”
“Just don’t care about so many other things.”
Chai Jin: “…”
Shi Xiu, you are so beautiful!
But seeing a big living person lying on the ground, the two of them had no intention of chatting. Although Shi Xiu said to mind his own business, he still couldn't restrain his curiosity and strode away. past.
When I got closer, I realized that this person looked familiar:
"Brother Yang?"
Chai Jin asked:
"Know?"
"This person is Yang Xiong, the patient who declined the invitation of the emperor."
After saying that, Shi Xiu dug into his arms and took out two French buns , he helped Yang Xiong up, tore open the package, broke off the small bread and fed it to Yang Xiong's mouth.
Shi Xiu also hurriedly went to the temple to bring a bowl of honey water. The two of them were busy feeding it. Only then did Yang Xiong open his eyes:
"Is this the underworld?" ”
"Yes, what crime have you committed?"
Yang Xiong was honest and answered immediately:
"The villain killed his wife and came to Cangzhou to seek refuge with Chai Daguan. I don't want him to be here today." He died, there was a funeral at home, and the villain had to leave. He was hungry on the way, and wanted to go to the temple, but fell to the ground... Huh? Brother Shi Xiuxian? "You're not dead, too?" , you just passed out in front of me and Chai Daguan, please get up and have something to eat."
Shi Xiu told Cangzhou and Chai Jin how to fake their own deaths, which made Yang Xiong surprised.
After explaining the ins and outs, Chai went into the backyard and took out a braised chicken wrapped in lotus leaves and some other cooked food from the saddle on his horse's back, and delivered them to the temple gate. Yang Xiong just sat cross-legged on the ground and ate.
The abbot in the temple wanted to say something, but in the end he just proclaimed Amitabha, turned around and went to the temple, out of sight.
After Yang Xiong ate something, he finally recovered. He thanked Shi Xiu seriously and saluted Chai Xing, who was dressed as a Taoist priest, before sitting down and continuing to chat.
"Brother Yang, why did you kill your wife?"
Shi Xiu is more concerned about Yang Xiong's murder. What kind of evil did Pan Qiaoyun do to force this withered man to a dead end?
When mentioning this matter, Yang Xiong sighed:
"I regret not listening to my wise brother. If I had followed Uncle Liu Huang earlier, it would not have caused such a tragedy."
The last time Liu Bei went there In Jizhou, Shi Xiu, who sells firewood for a living, is happy to go with him, but Yang Xiong feels that as a jailer and executioner of two hospitals, he has a formal job, a wife, and an old father-in-law who is a butcher. He has a smooth job and a happy life. What is he doing? Do you have to go into muddy water?
So he declined Liu Bei's invitation and continued to live his happy little life.
However, he wanted to live a good life, but he ended up with a wife who liked to pursue excitement. Pan Qiaoyun did things for her ex-husband, and not surprisingly, she hooked up with Pei Ruhai.
This time there was no intervention from Shi Xiu, and Yang Xiong wanted to go further at work and kept working night shifts, which gave the dog men and women more opportunities to make peace.
Tianlao Star Yang Xiong became Tianlu Star Yang Xiong.
In the end, the father-in-law Pan noticed it and saw Pei Ruhai entering and exiting his home. He wanted to persuade his daughter to calm down, but Pan Qiaoyun didn't listen at all. He even got worse and led Pei Ruhai around the house in broad daylight. Yang Xiong, who had taken the morning shift, was hit by a collision.
Realizing that Yang Xiong had been cuckolded, he was furious and beat Pei Ruhai severely. Pan Qiaoyun quickly apologized in tears, and the matter came to an end.
Unexpectedly, Pan Qiaoyun held a grudge and kept buying arsenic and putting it in the chicken soup, intending to poison Yang Xiong, but Old Man Pan drank it.
After accidentally killing his own father, Pan Qiaoyun panicked and went to discuss with Pei Ruhai. Yang Xiong, who was on official duty, caught him again and killed the adulterer and adulterer in a rage.
Just when he was about to surrender, he discovered that his father-in-law had been poisoned to death. His life was at stake, and it was difficult to explain clearly.
In desperation, Yang Xiong had to flee for his life. When he arrived in Cangzhou, he was penniless. He wanted to go to Chai's manor for a big meal, but he met Chai Jin who was pretending to die.
He had no choice but to continue walking westward, and eventually fainted from hunger at the gate of the temple.
Shi Xiu said:
"We brothers are destined to follow Uncle Liu Huang. If we hadn't come to see Mr. Chai, Brother Yang, you might have starved to death here. Uncle Liu indirectly saved your life."
Chai Jin: "..."
This brainwashing skill is quite good!
If you two hadn’t come to Cangzhou, I would still be eating hot pot, singing songs, and partying in the manor.
Let alone Yang Xiong, even if there are ten thousand Yang Xiong, they can still be entertained properly.
Yang Xiong is now a murderer and penniless, but he is not as good as Shi Xiu and Chai Jin. He sighed melancholy:
"I have nothing to gain, and I can't do anything in literature or martial arts. In addition to understanding If you don't know a few words of Daliao bird language, what can you do even if you go to the emperor's uncle?"
Shi Xiu immediately extracted the key words:
"You know Khitan dialect? Great, the emperor is in need of talents like you!”
