Raising a Dog is Better than Palace Fight Chapter 37

Chapter 37 Brother-in-law (1)

　　Emperor Wu of Zhou changed his appearance. His handsome face looked ordinary at this moment. Only a pair of dark and deep starry eyes were very outstanding. He was wearing an exquisitely crafted lake blue Confucian shirt with a gold medal hanging on his waist. Wearing a mutton-fat jade pendant and holding a white jade bone fan in his hand, he looked like a young man from a wealthy family. After a few days of recuperation, although his body was not as strong as before, it still looked less frail.

　　He was standing by the door with his hands behind his hands, listening to the shrill noises of women outside the courtyard.

　　"Is this little Taohong your subordinate? She is so sharp-tongued and fierce in her actions. I really can't tell that she is a secret guard." Emperor Zhou Wu raised his eyebrows.

　　"It's better if you can't see it. If you can see it, I don't have to hang around in the capital anymore. Your body was taken away and burned to ashes by the Shen family eight hundred years ago." Yan Junwei answered vaguely while washing his face. .

　　Emperor Zhou Wu smiled. The noise outside the courtyard had continued for half an hour and had not subsided. Instead, it became more and more intense. The fighting ability of women in the backyard is indeed amazing.

　　This house was expensive to build and occupied a large area. It was the dowry of Duke Qi's first wife. After his wife died of illness, the house became the property of Qi Donglei, the legitimate son of Duke Qi. Qi Donglei was originally the companion of the third prince, the current Holy Emperor. He got along with the third prince day and night when he was young. He was supposed to have a bright future, but he did not expect that when he was twelve years old, he got into a dispute with other companions in the palace and was discounted in the fight. After he returned home, he lost his right hand due to ineffective treatment. Since then, he was despised by the third prince and expelled from the palace. His title of prince was also taken away and crowned on the head of his concubine. Qi Donglei couldn't bear the blow and fell from a handsome young man to a well-known dandy in Beijing. He spent all his time looking for flowers instead of doing his job. Under the instigation of his concubines and concubines, the Duke of Qi became increasingly dissatisfied with him and sent him to live alone in this house.

　　Nowadays, the Duke of Qi's palace has long become the world of the concubine and the concubine. The concubine still remembers how amazing Qi Donglei was when he was young, and the number one man with both civil and military skills. If one day he figured it out, cheer up, and rely on his He had a previous friendship with the Holy Sage, and if he shyly went to the Holy Sage to beg for help, it would not be difficult to make a comeback. Because of this worry, the concubine spends all day looking for some beautiful and capable women to send to this house. They must seduce Qi Donglei and make her more and more slutty.

　　This little peach was specially sent by the concubine. Not only was she beautiful in appearance and enchanting in figure, but she also had a set of tricks to seduce people. She won Qi Donglei's full favor as soon as she arrived and became the dominant figure in the house. If other women wanted to meet Qi Donglei, they would have to fight her for three hundred rounds. Qi Donglei couldn't bear the quarrel, so he stepped in to mediate.

　　Having one beautiful woman is a blessing, having two beauties is a blessing for everyone, and having a group of beauties is a disaster. The house was noisy and smoky all day long, almost becoming a scene in Beijing. I don't know how many people were watching Qi Donglei's jokes in the dark. Because this house was so famous, the guards sent by the Shen family to search for Emperor Wu of Zhou didn't even knock on the door, and took a detour when they heard the jealous noise inside.

　　Beating them to death, they did not expect that the cripple Qi Donglei would turn out to be the famous secret guard commander Yan Junwei, and Xiao Taohong was not a romantic woman, but a secret guard with high martial arts skills. "Yan" is the surname given by the secret guard commanders of the past generations. Each generation of secret guard commanders has two identities, one is in the light and the other is in the dark, and the identity in the light is not very low. From ministers to civil servants, to traders and pawns, their status makes them have a wide range of friendships. Firstly, it is for the convenience of their duties, and secondly, it is in line with the sentence-the great hermit is hidden in the city, the so-called right hand is deposed, and the emperor Disgust is just a hood to deceive everyone.

　　The noise outside the hospital was coming to an end, ending with Xiao Taohong's victory. Immediately, the sounds of a group of women wailing sounded, and gradually disappeared under Xiao Taohong's cynicism.

　　Emperor Zhou Wu curled his lips and spoke with interest, "Sang Yu is like this too, with a show of teeth and claws on the face, but on the inside..." He shook his head and chuckled, his dark eyes full of nostalgia.

　　The emperor's lovesickness strikes again! Yan Junwei twitched the corner of his mouth and sat in front of the dressing table to apply makeup and powder. After opening a bunch of bottles and cans, he slowly fiddled with his face. His bronze skin turned pale, and there were heavy shadows under his eyes and cheeks. He looked very decadent. His thick black eyebrows had long been shaved into half. , if the eyebrows are drawn up like swords, they will look extremely heroic, and if they are drawn downward, the eyebrows will look downright vulgar.

　　At this time, Yan Junwei was drawing soft eyebrows. When all the processes were completed, his clear eyes became cloudy, and his sharp eyes were replaced by frivolousness. His straight waist drooped feebly, and he put on a pair of The clothes were two sizes too big, and his strong figure immediately looked thin, giving him the look of a dandy whose body had been drained by wine, sex, and wealth.

　　This was the first time Emperor Zhou Wu saw him transform, and he really couldn't connect the wretched man in front of him with the Yan Junwei in his impression. After looking at it carefully for a while, he sighed, "It's just smearing on the face. It's obviously the same facial features, but they look like two different people. It's really magical. Sang Yu is also like this, he looks like he doesn't apply makeup. She’s bright and cute, but with heavy makeup she becomes wanton and flamboyant, haha~”

　　He shook his head and smiled, the expression on his face was incredibly gentle.

　　Smoothing the folds of his clothes, Yan Junwei said jokingly, "Your Majesty, have you noticed that out of every three sentences you say these days, one of them must involve Concubine De?"

　　"Really?" Emperor Zhou Wu glanced at him sideways and asked in a deep voice, "Have you finished the arrangements? When can I return to the palace?"

　　"This sentence is still related to Empress Dowager De." Yan Junwei curled his lips and smiled. Seeing the emperor's cold eyes, he quickly added, "It's almost the past two days. Let's go. I will take you outside to see the situation."

　　The two strolled to the busiest street in the capital and entered a rather luxuriously decorated restaurant. When the restaurant manager saw Yan Junwei, he quickly smiled flatteringly and came out from behind the counter to welcome him, "Hey, Mr. Qi, you're here. Please come upstairs! Waiter, go pour the tea. I want good tea!"

　　"It's not really good tea, I won't drink it!" Yan Junwei shouted to the waiter with a stern expression, and then walked into a private dining room under the leadership of the shopkeeper. The shopkeeper closed the door and immediately put away his flattering smile. His round face actually showed a bit of anger. He kowtowed to the two of them and said, "I have seen my master and my commander."

　　"Get up." Emperor Wu of Zhou nodded.

　　"Tell people to hide around and guard." Yan Junwei whispered, and finally took out a piece of silver and threw it into the shopkeeper's hand.

　　The shopkeeper caught it neatly, nodded in agreement, and walked out of the booth. He deliberately weighed the silver in his hands. Where was the anger on his face? He looks like he is obsessed with money. It can only be said that the skill of face changing is the first condition for being selected as a secret guard.

　　The waiter quickly brewed a pot of Lu'an melon slices and brought them in. The faint fragrance of tea wafted in the air.

　　"Try it, the Lu'an melon slices brewed with the dew brought back from Pudu Temple in Qianfo Mountain have an excellent taste." Yan Junwei filled a cup for Emperor Wu of Zhou, and white mist filled the air.

　　Emperor Wu of Zhou picked up the tea cup and smelled it carefully. Finally, he took a sip, shook his head and said, "The water is good water and the tea is good tea. It's just that the brewing skills are really lacking. How about..."

　　"Not as good as Concubine De, one ten thousandth." Yan Junwei answered automatically.

　　"That's right." Emperor Zhou Wu smiled lightly.

　　Yan Junwei held his forehead and thought to himself: The emperor is either in trouble or incurable!

　　"What's going on in the Shen family recently?" Emperor Zhou Wu lowered his eyes, and his gentle expression turned into a look of solemnity.

　　"There is a lot of turmoil in their family. Shen Zhongliang bribes officials, colludes with foreign enemies, and seeks military power. You already know this. He has been particularly strict with his sons recently, especially Shen Xiyan. He listened to the reports from spies in their house. , It seems that he has begun to learn the imperial power."

　　Emperor Zhou Wu raised his eyebrows and tapped the table with his slender fingertips, "Is he training a prince? Tsk~ Idiots are talking about dreams!" The murderous intention in his tone was as real as the truth.

　　"If you don't wake up, the Shen family may not be just dreaming. Shen Zhongliang is in charge of this year's Qiu Wei, and many ministers have already submitted to him. He recently found a position for Shen Xiyan as deputy capital censor, responsible for presiding over Next year's spring." Yan Junwei turned the tea cup in his hand and whispered.

　　"What a good plan," Emperor Wu of Zhou raised his lips in approval, but his tone was very impressive, "Win over these ministers and tributes, and place them in inconspicuous but powerful positions. After three to five years, Most of the officials in the Manchu Dynasty will be Shen Zhongliang's disciples, so how can there be any disciples of the Emperor?"

　　He crushed the tea cup in his hand, slowly brushed off the powder in his palm, and said in a calm tone, "When I destroy the Shen family, this autumn ceremony will be invalid and will be held again next year. In my heart, I only know that Grand Master Shen is here. I don’t know how I can dare to use such an official?”

　　Yan Junwei put down his tea cup and said with a smile, "Not all moves are so utilitarian. There are a few good ones that can be used."

　　"Give me the list tomorrow. If they can go to high school next year when autumn reopens, I will use it." Emperor Wu of Zhou said as he walked towards the window and leaned down to look down.

　　On the street downstairs, two young men in rich clothes were confronting each other. One was alone, tough-looking and tall; the other was thin and gentle, with seven or eight servants behind him.

　　"Hey, it's Shen Xiyan and your brother-in-law!" Yan Junwei followed to the window and said playfully.

　　"Brother-in-law? Meng Yanzhou?" Emperor Wu of Zhou pondered, then immediately raised his hand and said, "Follow me down and have a look."

　　When I talk about brother-in-law, I think of Concubine De’s brother. This substitution was too quick and too conscious! Yan Junwei was speechless and followed Emperor Zhou Wu downstairs. The secret guards lurking around him immediately followed him.

　　On the street, Shen Xiyan stretched out his arm to block Meng Yanzhou's way, and said coldly, "You want to leave after hitting someone?" There was a deep scar at the corner of his left eye. Although it did not affect his vision, the scar made his eyelids swollen. There is something droopy and twisted, which seriously affects his appearance. The good-looking and handsome young man now seems to have a bit of evil and sycophantic air.
