Chapter 18: Leaf Butterfly
After the change of the auction house, Kyoto was shaken. After all, the people who participated in the auction were basically representatives of major families and wealthy merchants, and they were also considered to be the leading figures in Shangjing, but they were embarrassed and even scarred in the place of Jubaozhai in Kyoto, which was completely a slap in the face of the entire nobles in Shangjing.
And this matter also has Princess Kuang Yue in it, which is related to the royal family, which makes the prince furious, and carries out a rectification of the entire Shangjing, raids more than 10 departments of all sizes in the capital, involving defense, household registration, supervision, trial and other organs, and dismisses more than 20 officials below the third grade, and nearly 100 people are imprisoned, the first of which is the city defense battalion.
However, at this time, Han Ming didn't care about this, what happened in the auction house yesterday was a small episode for him at best, he was not injured in the auction house at all, so he was not in the mood to inquire about what happened in the entire Shangjing City today.
Now he is humming a little song and walking towards the house that Wencheng gave him yesterday.
He is in a very good mood now, he has just arrived in this other world, and he immediately got a house of his own, this feeling is like a pie falling from the sky, and the excitement is beyond words.
After walking for a long time, I came to a mansion, and according to the guidance of the waiter of the auction house yesterday, the mansion in front of me was right. The house is not particularly large, it has a hint of a northern courtyard house, and the door is tightly locked.
Han Ming took out the key from his coat pocket, opened the door, and walked in.
As soon as you enter the door, there is a stone wall blocking it, and there is an entrance next to the stone wall, and there are several rooms by the wall facing this entrance, which are presumably reserved for the next person to live in.
Bypassing the stone wall and entering the courtyard, you will feel that the inside is wide, which is completely different from the outside, with corridors on both sides, and a large main hall in front of the gate, and the corridors on both sides extend to it, and there are some houses.
The inner courtyard in the middle was very wide, and there was a pond in the left side, some sparse small trees were planted next to it, and the right side was vacated, and Han Ming was going to use it for future practice.
There is a cross passage in the middle of the inner courtyard, along with the corridors on the left and right sides and the main hall in the middle. Although the yard is not big, Han Ming is very satisfied, he just likes this style, the house is too big and uncomfortable to live in, this kind of small is just right for him.
Walking straight to the hall, the center of the hall was empty except for two chairs and a table. On the right side of the hall, the transept was supposed to be a bedroom, with a bed and some simple furniture, and the transept on the left resembled a study, with a desk, some shelves without books, and a few guest chairs.
Out of the hall, he walked to the corridor on the right, which was a little higher than the inner courtyard, and was laid with wooden planks at the bottom, and some curtains were laid down on both sides to cover the corridor.
There are three rooms on each side, and there are three paths extending from the corridor to each door, and at the end of the corridor, in the direction of the hall, there is also a road to the back of the hall, which seems to be a firewood room, a kitchen, and a back door.
Han Ming looked at the house next to the corridor and wanted to find a room to be his bedroom, so he looked at the room on the right, although the three rooms on the right were wide, they were not lit, so it was not good. So he went round the inner court and came to the left.
When he opened the door to the first room on the left, a mutation protruded, and a dagger rested on his neck.
This sudden change frightened Han Ming, he first froze in place, and then slowly turned his head to see who was going to kill him.
"Don't move, I'll kill you if you dare to. A reluctant and fierce female voice came from the ear.
At this time, Han Ming hated himself, and he was carried away by the joy of watching the house, and he didn't even have the least vigilance.
He raised his hands and said, "Heroine spare my life, I'm just a common man, I haven't done anything bad." If you ask for money, I will immediately ask someone to take it for you, what you say, I will prepare it for you immediately, the knife has no eyes, you have to pay attention. Han Ming thought about confusing this woman first, waiting for himself to get out, and then teaching her a good lesson.
As he spoke, he quietly turned his head, and Han Ming looked at the woman next to him who was pale, with blue lips, disheveled hair, and a tattered body, her clothes were still stained with a lot of coagulated blood, and her left arm was wrapped in a white cloth, which seemed to be injured.
At a glance, he recognized that this woman was the woman who had a conflict with the city defense camp at the Fengxian Floor that day, and he was very surprised, and couldn't help but say, "It's you?"
Unexpectedly, the woman thought that Han Ming recognized her as a fugitive, so she advanced the dagger towards Han Ming's neck. This move immediately left a mark on Han Ming's neck, which frightened Han Ming and hurriedly explained to the woman.
"Don't be a woman, I'm not a member of the city defense camp, I'm just a bystander in Fengxian Tower that day, I saw you being wronged, and I complained for you, you ...... Don't hurt me by mistake, I'm my own person, my own person, pay attention...... Watch out for this knife. ”
Han Ming watched the dagger get closer and closer to his neck, and he began to speak uncomfortably. He was afraid that if the woman's hand shook, this little life would be confessed here, and he had to let the woman let down her guard.
As soon as the woman heard Han Ming say that she was not from the city defense battalion, her hand loosened a little, but it was still tightly next to his neck, as long as Han Ming moved a little, she would cut it off without hesitation.
Han Ming felt that this woman's dagger was not so tight, and he breathed a sigh of relief in his heart.
Then he said to her: "I know you, I was on the Fengxian Tower that day, and I saw everything in my eyes, in fact, the group of people from the city defense camp had already arrived that day, but they just waited for you to make a move. I was very angry when I saw their behavior. Actually, I really wanted to help you, but it happened so fast that I didn't even react. I have the pleasure of seeing you again this time, I think this is a chance for God to make amends for me, you have to understand, I am not your enemy, you can lay down your arms now, I can help you. ”
However, no matter what Han Ming said, the woman refused to put down the weapon in her hand, and the two of them were in a stalemate. Han Ming thought that this was not the way to do this, he had to make her believe in herself, and looked at the scars on this woman's body, so he said to her.
"I see you're covered in wounds, and if you don't take medicine right away, your wounds will cost you your life. It's better than this, I know you don't believe me now, you can let me accompany you to the pharmacy to buy medicine, and if I make any changes in the process of buying medicine, you can kill me. ”
After Han Ming finished speaking, he looked at her with conscious and sincere eyes, and the woman also looked at Han Ming, the two of them looked at each other for a while, maybe the woman felt that Han Ming was reasonable, so she put down the dagger, and then said coldly: "I hope you don't lie to me, otherwise, even if I die, I will pull you on my back." ”
Seeing the woman put down the dagger, Han Ming breathed a sigh of relief in his heart and said, "How could I lie to you, you choose to believe me, you are saving yourself." ”
He was about to take the woman to the pharmacy, but he didn't expect the woman to walk straight into the back room. Han Ming followed up with a puzzled face, and saw the woman's father lying on the bed, dying, covered in wounds, especially the one on his back, which was deeply visible. Han Ming couldn't bear to look at it any longer, so he turned his head and said to the woman, "Let's go, let's go buy medicine, and ask a doctor to come back by the way." ”
The woman remembered that in the past two days, she had been chased and killed everywhere by the people of the city defense camp, hiding in Tibet, and finally hiding, and now she had to go out rashly, and she also had some worries in her heart. But looking at her father who was lying unconscious on the bed, she gritted her teeth and didn't care, and followed Han Ming out of the house and towards the medicine shop.
Half an hour later, Han Ming and the woman came to the unconscious man's bed with an old doctor.
Han Ming looked at the doctor, and then at the medicine he bought on the table. Thinking about it, I have to thank the housekeeper of the prince's mansion for getting some money when I came out, otherwise it would be over today.
The old doctor's skill was quite high, he first slowly stitched up the knife wound, and then took out a bottle of powder and applied it to the patient's wound.
After doing all this, according to the doctor, the middle-aged man barely picked up his life, but he still had to take care of his body and not work for two or three months.
Then the old doctor wrote another prescription for Han Ming to grab the medicine according to the prescription, and when all this was done, he took out two bottles of medicine, these two bottles of medicine were for the woman, one bottle was for oral administration, and the other bottle was used for external application, and after explaining everything, he left.
Han Ming sent the old doctor away, handed over some official silver, and went to boil medicine for the woman's father.
When the medicine was brought into the house, it was found that the woman was already asleep next to the bed.
Watching the woman fall asleep, Han Ming suddenly had mixed feelings. She is a girl, who suffered this catastrophe for no reason, hiding in Tibet all day long, with nowhere to live. Now that she finally met herself, her father's injuries were healed, and her safety was fine, a stone in her heart finally landed. In the past few days, I have been frightened and scared, so that a girl has not been able to sleep well.
Thinking of this, Han Ming put the medicine on the table, took out a blanket from the cabinet, and walked over, preparing to cover her so as not to catch a cold.
When the blanket was placed on the woman's back, the woman woke up reflexively and was about to slap Han Ming, but finally saw that it was Han Ming and hurriedly stopped her hand.
As soon as the woman saw that it was Han Ming, she apologized to him embarrassedly.
"Well, sorry, I didn't notice it was you. Oh, by the way, my name is Ye Die, this is my father Ye Hao, it was wrong for me to hurt you with a sword at the beginning, and I didn't know you at the time......"
The dagger is the dagger here, and is generally referred to as the sword.
Han Ming smiled and said, "It's okay, then you don't know me now, you will live here in the future, this mansion is what I just acquired, no one knows here, you can rest assured that no one will disturb you." ”
Han Ming thought that there would be one more person and more excitement, not to mention that there were two masters, he had saved them now, and when they were injured, he would definitely stay to repay the favor, and then leave them here, then there would be two masters in his yard in the future, and he would be much more at ease when he stepped into this world in the future.
