Chapter 2439: An Old Horse in the Stable
The next day, when it was still dark, Cao Fei got up.
He lives in Fang Xing's courtyard, and it's also a side room.
Chen Mo lives opposite, and his snoring is loud.
Cao Fei stood under the eaves, looked at Fang Xing who was running around the yard and asked, "Why don't Uncle Xinghe practice?"
After Fang Xing ran over, he panted slightly and said, "I have to practice sparring with my servants later. Don't dare not practice! Otherwise, if you have a hand-to-hand encounter with the enemy one day and your hands are unfamiliar, you will die."
Cao Fei nodded, and then ran a few laps.
The yard is not big, but Cao Fei was still out of breath after several laps.
He bent down and supported his legs, and said sincerely: "Only now do we know the hard work of those soldiers."
"Being a soldier provides food and protects the country. As long as you don't humiliate them, that's your duty."
Fang Xing continued to run, and when Chen Mo's snoring stopped, Xin Laoqi also came.
Fang Xing and Xin Laoqi were sparring with wooden knives. After they finished practicing, Chen Mo also finished washing up and said regretfully from the side: "If the official wasn't so fat, he might be able to become an officer with a thousand households in the army or something. "
Cao Fei pointed to his belly that was holding up the official uniform and said: "If you are interested, you can enter the palace and work with our family for a few years. I guarantee that you will be prosperous and vigorous, and you can even get rid of the black thorns."
"Blackthorn?"
Chen Mo regretted it as soon as he opened his mouth.
Cao Fei was probably too tired from the journey, and it was his first time out of the palace and a long trip in many years, so he was a little too excited and made a mistake.
He frowned, his eyes were wrinkled into triangular shapes, and the whites of his eyes were a little whiter. He just stared at Chen Mo and said in a conspiratorial manner: "Tell us what you heard?"
Black Thorn's food and salary were all allocated separately by the palace, and Cao Fei, as the boss of the Ceremony Supervisor, knew about the existence of this army, and before Black Thorn left for the outside world, the eunuch who had heard the order came back and told them how powerful they were.
The Black Thorns have gone down the mountain, but their identities are still secret. Whoever leaks it will be punished by the emperor's wrath.
Chen Mo panicked immediately and said flatteringly: "Eunuch Cao, I have seen those people before."
Cao Fei said coldly: "What did you hear?"
The old guy has murderous intentions.
Chen Mo quickly said: "No, Xiaguan had a dream last night about going to a brothel. Hey! That woman was charming, but it was a pity that it was in a dream. Xiaguan is still thinking about it, and he is fascinated!"
Cao Fei's expression turned darker again, and Chen Mo's heart skipped a beat before he remembered that eunuchs were the most taboo about being mentioned in front of them.
"Xiaguan is wrong. In last night's dream, Xiaguan was beaten to a bloody head, but he didn't win the beauty."
The more Chen Mo explained, the darker Cao Fei's face became, and in the end he had no choice but to plead guilty.
——Old guy, why don’t you stop being taboo with so many beautiful maids in the palace?
He was worried that Cao Fei would suffer for him if he turned back, but Cao Fei was gloomy for a long time, and finally patted him on the shoulder and said: "It's okay, the people in our family who have been punished still have such courage."
The eunuch is the stingiest!
Chen Mo felt that he had to solve this problem, otherwise he would never be able to sleep well from today on.
So while everyone was having breakfast together, Chen Mo started his performance.
"Eunuch Cao, please eat sauerkraut."
"Eunuch Cao, this egg looks particularly handsome. I can't bear to eat it when I see it. Only people with high morals and respect like you can enjoy it."
"Eunuch Cao..."
No one has ever dared to be so attentive to Cao Fei. No, this is not attentiveness, this is pestering.
Cao Fei said sullenly: "Eat your own."
He felt that his evil spirit had been released, and it was time for Chen Mo to stop.
But Chen Mo reluctantly put the chopstick head into his mouth and licked it, then picked up a piece of fermented bean curd and prepared to hand it to Cao Fei.
Cao Fei looked at Chen Mo seriously. He wanted to see if this man was serious.
In the end, Chen Mo really came over.
"Ahem!"
At the critical moment, after Fang Xing coughed dryly, the piece of fermented bean curd stopped on Cao Fei's bowl.
Fang Xing thought this was a game between two boring people, so he said, "Okay.
Chen Mo apologized. "
Then Cao Fei saw another Chen Mo.
Chen Mo put the whole piece of fermented bean curd into his mouth, then chewed it a few times without changing his expression and swallowed it.
After eating such salty food one piece at a time, Cao Fei felt peaceful.
Of course, this is mainly due to Fang Xing.
"Chen Mo just keeps his mouth shut. I'm used to it. If Eunuch Cao can stay longer, he will naturally know that what I said is true."
Cao Fei nodded, finished breakfast a few times, and took the people out.
Chen Mo then said fearfully: "Uncle Xinghe, this old guy doesn't want to kill the official, does he?"
"What do you think?"
Fang Xing said angrily: "Most of these people who have been hanging around in the palace for most of their lives are monsters, and their thoughts are unpredictable. If you make him angry, you will be remembered for the rest of your life!"
Later, someone came to report that Jin Youzi and Yan Dajian were going to the construction site.
"Uncle Ben is off today."
Fang Xing's attitude was very subtle. After word spread, both Jin Youzi and Yan Dajian were a little confused.
The timing of Cao Fei's arrival was also very subtle, especially since he chose to enter the city at night, so the news spread quickly.
The eunuch of the Chief of Ceremony is here. What does this mean?
But Chang Yu's attitude remained unchanged. He even sent someone to Fang Xing's place to talk at noon, saying that all the big guys from Beijing were here. As a parent, he had nothing to say. He wanted to treat him to a treat in the afternoon and hoped that you would appreciate it.
Cao Fei heard about this when he came back for lunch, and he excitedly asked to go together.
Fang Xing didn't know why he didn't return to the capital, and he didn't bother to ask.
After Cao Fei took a nap, Chen Mo muttered: "Uncle Xinghe, this Eunuch Cao is not a good person. If he sees a woman this afternoon, will Chang Yu be unlucky?"
"We are here to supervise the production."
Fang Xing felt that Zhu Zhanji was watching the officials jumping up and down with cold eyes, and even hoped that they would make more noise.
Fang Xing was sitting in front of the yard. The sun was nice and warm on his body.
But he is not yet old, and his bones are not yet despairingly cold, so there is no need to bask in the sun like this.
"Master, Wang Shang is here."
"please come in."
Fang Xing just stood up to greet Wang Shang when he came in.
"I feel a little lazy, please forgive me, Mr. Bailian."
Fang Xing asked someone to bring the chair out, and the two of them basked in the sun together.
Wang Shang looked very energetic, which reminded Fang Xing of a sentence.
"I'm talking about being a teenager, Mr. Bai Lian. I hope you can still be this energetic in ten years."
Fang Xing's wishes were sincere, and Wang Shang smiled happily when he heard them.
He opened his mouth. There were no teeth in his mouth, and the remaining teeth were thinner and crooked.
"I review articles every day now, and I have to discuss with them how to format them. When everything is finished, I have to check them all over again. I'm so busy!"
Wang Shang smiled: "In the beginning, there were only a few articles every day, and most of them were unusable or needed major revisions. But now, seeing that Mingbao's reputation is growing day by day, there are dozens of articles submitted every day, and I am wandering around every day. In the fragrance of ink, I am so happy when I see a good article that I often forget to eat. "
This was probably the life he dreamed of, so he smiled happily.
Fang Xing felt a little jealous, so he smiled and said, "It's good to be busy. It's better to be busy after fifty."
Wang Shang nodded in agreement: "Yes, if you do nothing and sit at home all day long, you will watch time passing by your fingertips and disappearing in your memories. That will make people despair."
There is nothing more depressing than watching your life go by.
Fang Xing suddenly thought of square dancing and other violent groups.
The divergent thinking even thought of the big island where there were already some immigrants.
Are those people okay?
