Chapter 224: Xiao Chen Ping
Because Jiankang was initially decided, there would be one or two teams of night patrol soldiers walking by in the city at any time. Lin Nan was in anger, and it happened that a team of men and horses who were ramming the camp came from the side of the street, and Lin Nan immediately stopped him, and it was a coincidence that the leader of the team had seen Lin Nan in Shizigang, so he knew it, and when he saw him coming, he hurriedly bowed down and said: "His Royal Highness King Wu." When he said this, the rest of the soldiers hurriedly bowed down and saluted.
"Okay, immediately surround all this group of people for me!" Lin Nan pointed at the crowd, the leader pulled out his knife suddenly, and the men and horses who rushed through the camp immediately surrounded this group of people. I saw Lin Nan ask coldly: "I'll ask again, who knows where the girl who came with me goes, say it and the king will reward her, if not, all of them will be punished on the spot, and no one will be left!"
As soon as these words were spoken, a lewd man with a sharp mouth and a pockmarked face squeezed out of the crowd, knelt on the ground and said repeatedly: "The king is angry, I know about this." ”
"Then don't say it quickly!" Lin Nan tugged at his collar and lifted him up like a chicken.
"Temple...... Your Highness...... That...... Girl...... I'm afraid I'm ...... ...... by the East Dongfang Gongzi was arrested. After he finished speaking, Lin Nan threw him aside, and asked again: "What Dongfang Gongzi, where does you live!" A fine man next to him couldn't understand the man, so he stepped forward and said: "Lord Qiyu, that Dongfang Gongzi is surnamed Dongfang, his name is not named, he is the eldest son of Dongfang Wenjie, the head of Dongtun, and he often relies on power. Bullying men and women, the villain vaguely saw his subordinates carrying a sack to the north, there seemed to be a living person in the sack, and he wanted to come to Xu was the girl who came with the prince. ”
"Okay, you are an unknown Dongfang, and you have robbed me of women!" Lin Nan was furious, and asked the man: "Do you know where they went north?" The man thought for a while, and suddenly said: "There is an invitation to the moon building two hundred steps north, and the son of Dongfang robbed the women and lived happily there, and then sold them into the Qinglou." Lin Nan was furious, and shouted at the leader: "You immediately go to the forward camp to pass my order, and ask Gao Dehong to lead the troops to invite Yueyue Tower quickly, and the rest of the people will follow me!" "Yes!" The leader didn't dare to slack off, and rushed all the way away, Lin Nan was even more anxious, and took more than 20 soldiers from the forward battalion to come straight to Yingyue Tower.

"He turned out to be a prince. Only then did the onlookers breathe a sigh of relief and immediately began to talk in low voices.
"It's better to get into less trouble these years, and looking at this posture, Dongfang Weiming will also be unlucky. ”
"It's better for this scum to die early. ”
Seeing the people scatter, the girl thought as if she had lost her soul: "How can this be. The middle-aged man who looked like a businessman came over and sighed, comforting the girl: "Yan'er, don't think about it, I wanted to recruit a talent for you this time, but who knew that such a character would be provoked, and it was really fatal to think about it." ”
"Dad, is it ......" As soon as the girl's words were halfway through, she saw the man shake his head and said: "Yan'er, don't be stupid, they are princes, and there is a world of difference between them and our small people, how to climb high." "But my oath ......" The girl cried aggrievedly, and her heart was in a mess. "Creatures make people. The man sighed, took his daughter and patted her on the shoulder, and said: "Houmen is as deep as the sea, and it is not a good place to come. The girl listened to him, and only cried even more.
Jiankang City is divided into two cities, the inner city is the imperial city, and the outer city is Guocheng. There are eighteen streets under Guocheng, arranged in three lines. Six streets per line. There are thirty-two squares in each street, crisscrossing each other, and some of the two squares are only twenty or thirty steps apart.
Invite the moon building, is the famous green building on Yangquan Street in Dongfang, there is the so-called: "enter Beijing do not come to invite the moon building, the hero will also be sad white-headed" said, in fact, count it carefully, the size of the green building on this Yangquan Street is no less than twenty or thirty, but the one that is prosperous is only this invitation building.
If you want to make a career in the green building, first of all, you must naturally have a few beauty signs, and secondly, of course, you must have gorgeous pavilions and elegant environment. Why should there be an elegant environment? If you think about it, most of the people who come to a place like Qinglou are married men, and they are used to being noisy by their wives at home, so they prefer to do those unsightly things in a quiet and elegant environment outside.
At this time, in the Xiyu Pavilion, a white cedar boy was holding a woman in a green mansion who was wearing a revealing dress and covering a round fan in his hand, he was quite delicate and dressed in a graceful manner, and at first glance he looked like a merry man, but at this time he was full of complexion and prodigal behavior, no matter how he looked at it, he was a shameless person.
"Oh, Childe, where are you going? The woman in the green building smiled coquettishly, hooked a pair of eyes, and deliberately leaned very tightly, and the scene between the clothes loomed.
"Beauty, do we have any new goods here?" The white-shirted man who spoke was Dongfang Weiming, and he looked at her with a smile while asking the woman in his arms.
"Childe!" Before the Qinglou woman could speak, a coarsely clothed little guy ran in, smiling all over his face.
"What's the matter?" Dongfang Weiming asked impatiently.
The little guy squinted and peeked at the body of the woman in the green building, swallowed his saliva and said: "If you go back to the son, we will exchange it for a good product, and wait for the son to fall." ”
"Oh?" Dongfang Weiming listened, let go of the Qinglou woman, stepped forward and smiled: "Is it really a good product?"
The little guy laughed and said, "Dare to hide from the son, this goods, tsk, it's really ......."
"Alright, alright, take me to see it. Dongfang Weiming picked him up and ran out of the pavilion. The Qinglou woman saw the two of them go out, stroked her skirt to cover her thighs, and spat, "Phew, men don't have a good thing." ”
Here, Dongfang Weiming and the little guy walked forward along the second floor, and said with a smile while walking: "That little lady is still noisy and said that she is the favorite concubine of King Wu, saying that if we don't let her go, we will punish the nine clans, and the son said that it is ridiculous?" ”
"Childe, it's here. The two walked to a room against the wall, and the little guy was about to push the door, but Dongfang Weiming hurriedly stopped him and said, "Slow, wait for me to take a look first." ”
"Yes. The little guy didn't know why, he stood on the side, and saw Dongfang Weiming dip his tongue in his hand, wipe a small hole in the window and look inside. Seeing a beautiful woman sitting on the edge of the bed, her hands were tied tightly, her face was full of anger, the beauty of the beauty was extraordinary, but Dongfang Weiming was in no mood to think about it, after all, life is more important than beauty, he gasped and looked at the little guy and said: "Your pair of dog eyes should really be thrown into the toilet, you dare to catch anyone!"
"Your Highness, don't you ......" The little guy listened to his words, and his face turned black with fright.
"Not to mention her hair ornaments, clothes, just the pearl necklace around her neck, I'm afraid that she doesn't even have ordinary eunuchs, I think it must be something in the palace. Dongfang Weiming was cunning after all, and he saw the clues, but the little guy was stupid, and he hurriedly knelt on the ground and grabbed Dongfang Weiming's leg and said, "Childe must save me!"
Dongfang Weiming kicked him away and said angrily: "Save you, I'm afraid that my life will be difficult to save this time!"
Here Lin Nan had arrived in front of the Yuelou, a woman in the Qinglou with her head twisted her waist and came over, she neither noticed Lin Nan's expression, nor did she pay attention to the officers and soldiers who followed behind, so she leaned in, and said in her mouth: "Is this official also looking for fun?" Lin Nan's eyes were full of anger, and he pushed the Qinglou woman away, and stabbed her lower abdomen with a sword.
"Ah!" a woman's scream came from downstairs, and the men and women who were making fun in the Yuelou were all in a mess, and some of the men and women in the pavilion also ran out of the pavilion to see what was going on. At this time, I saw Lin Nan coming in from outside the door with a sword, and then dozens of officers and soldiers came in with guns, Lin Nan's sword was still dripping with blood, and his expression was very ugly.
"Will ...... General: This is. The old bustard of the Qinglou came over tremblingly, for fear that Lin Nan would also kill him.
"Dongfang Weiming can be here!?" Lin Nan asked coldly, and the old bustard could only reply: "No...... Not here. ”
Dongfang Weiming, who was upstairs, knew that the matter had reached a critical moment, and suddenly turned his head and asked the little guy, "Who else is in your family?" The little guy heard this, and immediately took two steps back. "Childe, I still have a seventy-year-old mother in my family......" Before he could finish speaking, Dongfang Weiming had already pulled out a dagger from his cuff, covered his mouth with his left hand, and stabbed the dagger into the little man's heart with his right hand. "Don't worry, your mother has me to support you. "Woo......" The little guy struggled twice, and finally his pupils dilated, his eyes were wide open, and he lost his breath.
Dongfang Weiming didn't dare to slack off in the slightest, dragged his body to the door, and then kicked the door open, and a general of Dongfang Mansion in the pavilion was about to speak, but he didn't expect Dongfang Weiming to stab him in the chest with a dagger, and then covered his mouth. This qiē killing move was very coherent, and Yuzhi naturally couldn't see the flaw, but she also panicked, because she didn't know what this person was going to do.
"The girl suffered. Dongfang Weiming stepped forward to cut the rope that tied Yuzhi and threw the dagger on the ground.
"Childish!" Unhurriedly, Lin Nan just arrived at the door at this time, and saw a white cedar man with a dagger, thinking that he was going to commit murder on Yuzhi, and immediately shouted: "I'll kill you!"
"Your Highness, you have misunderstood. Yuzhi ran over and grabbed Lin Nan and hurriedly explained: "Your Highness, this son is not a villain, he is here to save me." ”
Lin Nan listened, and hurriedly looked up and down at Yuzhi and asked, "Then are you okay, have they done anything to you?" ”
Yuzhi knew what Lin Nan meant, lowered his head and said, "Your Highness, don't worry, they just grabbed the concubine here and didn't do anything." ”
Lin Nan breathed a sigh of relief, hugged her and said softly, "It's okay if you're fine." Yu Zhi sighed, then looked at Dongfang Weiming and said, "Why don't you pay homage to His Royal Highness King Wu soon, don't you want to ask him to give you a wealth and wealth?"
Dongfang Weiming was surprised, and hurriedly bowed down and said: "The villain Dongfang Weiming sees His Royal Highness King Wu, and the villain's two families will take the princess from the street, with bad intentions, and the villain let them let them go after knowing about this matter, who knows that they don't listen, but will drive the villain out, and in desperation, they can only kill the two of them, and hope that His Royal Highness will beg for mercy and avoid death." ”
After hearing this, Lin Nan snorted coldly and asked, "Isn't it your Dongfang Gongzi who instructed it?"
Dongfang Weiming was frightened when he heard this, and said again and again: "The villain really doesn't know. The villain has the courage to do such a thing. ”
"Hmph, if you knew, you wouldn't dare. Lin Nan kept him at this time, so naturally he couldn't diǎn Ming, and Yuzhi was not bullied, so his anger disappeared, so he waved his hand at Dongfang Weiming and said: "I forgive you for not having the guts, I will let you go back for the time being, and I will personally go to your house tomorrow to ask you why." ”
Dongfang Weiming knew that he had picked up a life, and while thanking him for his kindness, he walked out of the cabinet backwards.
Lin Nan saw him go downstairs. Then he hugged Yuzhi and said: "Finally, there is no danger, childish, let's go." "Yuzhi woman's temperament, she didn't think about Dongfang Weiming at all, so she followed Lin Nan out of the room.
As soon as the two stepped on the stairs, they heard the sound of horses' hooves outside, and a heavily armored military general rushed in with a sword. ”
Lin Nan walked downstairs with Yuzhi in his arms, and Gao Dehong was beating a drum in his heart. I thought that Lin Nan must be angry, but I didn't expect him to only say lightly: "Get up, it's not too late." ”
"Thank you, Your Highness!" Gao Dehong sighed in his heart and stood up.
Originally, Lin Nan brought twenty soldiers from the rampant battalion, and this time Gao Dehong brought three hundred men and horses from the forward battalion, and the prostitutes and women in the Qinglou looked at this group of people all in the light of their armor, carrying spears, and suddenly their hearts were furious, and their feet were soft.
Lin Nan turned around and glanced at the old bustard just now. Snorted and said, "Although I asked you twice before you told the truth, but you are still honest, this time I will spare your life." After listening to this, the old bustard knelt on the ground and thanked Lin Nan again and again when he saw his fat body.
"Your Highness just spared her like this, isn't it too cheap for this old dog?" Gao Dehong glanced at the old bustard, and his face was murderous.
But a strange look flashed in Lin Nan's eyes, and he said to the old bustard: "I can spare your life, but this group of women in your building is going to be requisitioned." As soon as these words came out, Yu Zhi was dissatisfied, lowered his head and pouted, "What is the use of this group of sluts, Your Highness?" Lin Nan knew the meaning of her words, and smiled: "Don't worry, I'm not interested in this kind of woman." Yuzhi became happy at this time, in her heart, whether this group of women are dead or alive now really has nothing to do with herself.
"Come on, take all the women in this building and take them away. Although Gao Dehong didn't understand what Lin Nan meant, he understood that the duty of a soldier from ancient times to the present day was to carry out orders, and as for other things that should not be asked, he should ask as little as possible.
Of course, the prostitutes did not have any feelings for the women of the Qinglou, and when they saw the officers and soldiers coming to arrest them, they all hid aside one by one. And the women in the Qinglou were crying and crying one by one, dragging and refusing to leave, Lin Nan only felt very uncomfortable when he heard this voice, and casually ordered Gao Dehong: "I'll go first, and you will take care of the aftermath here." "Yes!" Gao Dehong was sent out of the door, watching the two get into the carriage and go away, his face immediately changed his skin and flesh, and he walked into the house and shouted: "What are you crying about, the one who doesn't want to leave will give me the Fa on the spot!" This sentence really worked, the women in the Qinglou were reluctant to leave because they were afraid of death, and whether they could go away or not was a death, so they simply admitted it, and they all lined up in a queue with their heads bowed and were escorted out by the officers and soldiers.
"This ......" As the officers and soldiers and the woman in the Qinglou walked away, the old bustard and a few ghost men were all dumbfounded, and the Qinglou without the woman in the Qinglou was like a pharmacy without medicinal materials, how could it be opened? In the end, it could only be closed.
Lin Nan accompanied Yuzhi back to Chen Palace, it was late at this time, so he went to bed, and there were other things in the meantime, so I won't go into details.
The next day, Lin Nan got up very early and saw that Yuzhi was still asleep, so he didn't disturb her. After washing, I ate the morning diǎn, which are all light dishes, such as stir-fried garan, etc., which is a large-leaved green vegetable that tastes slightly sweet. The ancients were still very particular about it, but Lin Nan preferred it to be simpler, so it was very simple to do it according to his instructions, but he ate quite comfortably, and he also praised the dish of stir-fried garan, and even rewarded the cook with ten taels of silver.
After eating too early, Lin Nan got into the carriage and went to Dongfang Mansion with four or five retinues. Because Dongfang Wenjie's official position is humble, he can only live outside Guocheng, and the carriage walks steadily, while Lin Nan thinks back to what he heard Gao Dehong say about Dongfang Wenjie yesterday. This Oriental Wenjie, whose name is Botong, is resourceful, comparable to Chen Ping, the founder of the Western Han Dynasty, so he has a nickname called "Little Chen Ping", this person does not seem to be simple, so Lin Nan is ready to go and see him.
"Dongfang Wenjie is a small official with the size of a sesame mung bean, but by making the silver and the upper and lower have a good relationship, his son can actually swing in the capital and rob the people's daughters casually, it is really strange that a country like Nan Chen will not destroy the country. Thinking about some messy gossip, I don't know how long it took, the carriage had slowly stopped, and the soldier in charge of the carriage jumped out of the carriage, walked to the back of the carriage and said, "Your Highness, it's here." ”
"Okay!" Lin Nan agreed, and the soldier dared to lift the curtain and help him out of the car.
Dongfang Mansion is not magnificent, but the courtyard is not small, the wall of more than one zhang high stretches dozens of meters away, the gate of vermilion lacquer is closed, and the two squatting stone masters at the door hold copper balls in their mouths, which is quite hideous. An apricot tree split out two hooks and forks and crossed the wall, full of spring, Lin Nan ordered the accompanying soldiers not to follow, only walked to the door with an entourage holding a gift, grabbed the iron ring on the door and knocked twice.
"Squeak. Zhu Men showed a gap, and a little guy leaned out half of his body and asked very politely, "Who is Childe looking for?"
"Go and inform your master, just say that King Wu Yang Yu has come to visit. The little guy listened to Lin Nan's words and hurriedly turned around and ran, and when he was young, he heard a burst of footsteps, and then the Zhu Door was opened, and the four people fell to the ground at the same time, and the person in front almost put his body on the ground, and said respectfully: "Xiaguan Dongfang Wenjie, the three of you have seen His Royal Highness King Wu." ”
It seems that most of the things in the East have scared him. Lin Nan thought about it, so he stepped forward to help Dongfang Wenjie and said: "Brother Botong is polite, Yang Yu has heard of the name for a long time, and he came to visit him today. The entourage offered the gift, but Dongfang Wenjie didn't dare to accept it, and thanked him: "How can the lower official be virtuous, how dare he accept the gift of His Royal Highness." Lin Nan was most annoyed by this kind of back and forth politeness, picked up the gift box and handed it to Dongfang Wenjie and said, "Brother Botong, doesn't he look down on me Yang Yu?" Dongfang Wenjie knew that it was difficult to refuse, so he thanked him again and again before taking the gift box.
Lin Nan smiled loudly and looked at his three sons, only to find that there was no Dongfang Weiming inside.
"Why don't you see the eldest prince?" asked Lin Nan a little strangely.
Dongfang Wenjie's face remained unchanged, and he said respectfully: "The discipline of the lower officials is not strict, and such an unscrupulous son from Dongfang Mansion should be dealt with according to the family law." ”
When Lin Nan heard this, he immediately became interested, but his face did not show it. "Those who don't know are not guilty, and this matter is not instigated by the son, so forget it. ”
Dongfang Wenjie hurriedly bowed again: "Your Highness is very gracious, Wenjie is inscribed within the five, if you have to be dispatched, you will definitely be the work of dogs and horses." ”
"You're just waiting for my words, right?" Lin Nan snorted in his heart, picked up Dongfang Wenjie and said with a smile: "Where is the eldest prince now? This sentence seems to be concerned, but in fact, Lin Nan wants to see the excitement of Dongfang Weiming, although Dongfang Wenjie is absolutely smart, but he didn't expect Lin Nan to have this thought, but although he was more grateful on his face, in fact, he knew in his heart that Lin Nan must have something to ask him, so he thanked him again: "Thank you, Your Highness, you still care about Xiao'er, please come with me." ”
The two of them passed through the courtyard, and turned another arch, and then they looked up and saw in the courtyard in front of them standing a cross stake, on which was tied a man with an open body, although it was still far away, but the whip marks on his upper body could be seen.
"It's a bitter trick, but it's finally a breath for me. Lin Nan smiled in his heart, but sighed on his face and said, "What's the pain, the eldest prince was beaten for no reason." ”
Dongfang Wenjie pretended to hate and said: "You must kill this beast, so as not to defeat my Dongfang family." ”
"Hey......" Lin Nan walked over briskly, until he came to Dongfang Weiming. I saw that his naked upper body was full of whip marks, and the skin on his chest was even beaten, and blood was flowing everywhere.
"Dad, I was wrong, don't fight, alas, the child knows that he is wrong, the child doesn't dare anymore, hey, ......" Dongfang Wenjie's screams kept coming, Lin Nan sneered in his heart, knowing that the two of them had done a lot of hard work, it seemed that they were really afraid of themselves. (To be continued.) )
