CHAPTER XXXVI

In order to settle nearly 1,000 refugees in the outer city in the past two days, Xie Chengzu led his troops out of the city early in the morning.

Thousands of people were transported with grain and grass, clothing and warmth, and several craftsmen and blacksmiths were invited to the city, ready to open the furnace and refine the tools in the winter leisure time, and first throw the rusty old iron in the hands of the soldiers into the iron-making furnace and return to the furnace to be rebuilt.

The brick kiln masonry that can be built by himself, and the site for smelting ironware all require a lot of manpower, material resources and drawings.

As soon as he finished instructing his subordinates to build a kiln tomorrow, less than a moment after sitting down, Du He walked in and whispered a few words.

After listening, Xie Chengzu's face immediately sank, he looked at Du He, and his eyes were all blamed: "What I told you two days ago, why did you do it today?" ”

Du He knew that he had forgotten about this matter, and almost had a big incident, so he hurriedly said: "This matter is all due to the negligence of his subordinates, and he will be punished by the adult, and Du He will voluntarily lead the board." Then he glanced at the adult's face, and said in a low voice: "In the afternoon, those officials opened their mouths and closed their mouths to arrest people and send them to prison, I saw that Miss Tan was really frightened, and her legs were weak when she walked. ”

As long as ordinary women hear the word imprisonment, most of them would rather die than take a step.

I don't know how many people collapsed to the ground, or bit their tongues and killed themselves.

When a female prisoner is imprisoned, she loses her virginity, and the head of the cell takes pleasure in this, and when she encounters a slightly better-looking female prisoner, she wants to come to learn it one by one, Zhang San only goes, Li Si comes again, and even day and night, or simply go outside to have fun at will, and regard that cruel and dark place as a forbidden place.

When he thought of the consequences of a step at night, Lord Xie's face was even more difficult to see, he got up without saying a word and walked out of the door, but halfway through, he returned to Du He and said: "The official who entered the courtyard today, stripped off the skin, and was punished with a hundred rods, and rushed to the outer city to open up the wasteland, in the future, the female prisoners in the prison will only be guarded by the female cell head alone, and no one shall abuse the lynching, if there is a violator, directly cut off their heads, see if they dare or not!" After saying that, he threw up his sleeves and left angrily.

Is this really angry?

Du He still had some schadenfreude in his heart, and then touched the back of his head, originally the last time the soldiers rebelled, someone followed behind and took advantage of the fire to rob, and the adults were angry, but they were busy with affairs, and after disposing of a few people, the matter was temporarily put on hold, but I didn't expect that those fat poor people were hanged by the old birthday star and thought that they had a long life, and they sent them to the door, although the punishment of one hundred was a bit heavy, but no matter how ruthless they were, they couldn't be wrong, those poor people were all old fritters who had been mixed in the government for an unknown number of years, and the door came out, a few hands were not touched, count them one by one, There are few good things, and it is not unjust to be killed.

The sky slowly darkened, Ruizhu lit the candle, the room lit up a little bigger, and then put dinner on the table, Miss this afternoon, although sitting in front of the window with a book, but her mind was not here at all, and her eyes kept looking at the door.

From the sun to the top of your head, you can see the sun set.

Ruizhu, who was busy with work, saw that he was waiting for someone.

Miss didn't say, she didn't dare to ask, after the horse under Master Xie rode away, she also mustered up the courage to look at the door, and it was really on the wall next to the door, nailed a wooden sign, on which the word Xie Fu was burned with charcoal, and hung there in a daze, and the corners were not even carved with a wooden knife, it was indeed big and conspicuous, not only did it not have half a point of elegance, it looked more crude and ugly, and it was really a group of soldiers.

Even Ruizhu disliked, it can be seen how ugly it is, she pouted and looked at it for a while, and when she turned around, she saw the woman living next door, with two maids, I don't know where to come back, I saw the poor girl next to her standing at the door, I don't know what to see, I also looked at it, and found that there was more wood that was not frustrated, and there were words written on it, it seemed that the name of the house.

It's really vulgar, and I can't help but hide my breath with a handkerchief and laugh.

When she saw the woman in the coarse cloth gown and apple face glaring at her, the woman cleared her throat and was about to ask them what their house was, but her eyes were sharp, and she actually saw the word thank you on the top.

Xie Fu? How so?

There are not many people surnamed Xie in this city, but the loud one is the garrison of Beicheng.

If she didn't think much about it, but a few days ago, the girl next to her came to say that she seemed to see the guard enter the house next to her, of course she didn't believe it, but today the sign of Xie Mansion was hung up?

How can there be such a coincidence in the world? Could it be that what the girl said is true?

She couldn't laugh anymore, she began to look Ruizhu up and down, and her angular lips couldn't help but spit out: "This house was originally surnamed Zheng, why did it change to Xie Mansion?" Sold to you? So your surname is Xie? Which thanks? Who is surnamed Xie in this house? ”

"Why do you sue you, which Xie, the long eyes won't look at it." Ruizhu couldn't help but roll his eyes, the merchant was originally an inferior person, or was it an outer room raised by the merchant outside, what is it? She was particularly disdainful.

Look at the shining gold and silver jewelry? It's really vulgar, when who hasn't seen gold, just the bracelet in her hand, put it in the past, the lady took the reward and the next person was too cheap, Ruizhu was rewarded in a bunch, the worst ones were better than her condition, and she was like a baby, not even a merchant concubine, what's the big deal.

I didn't even bother to reply, anyway, now that she and the young lady's identities are torn apart, even the guards know what they are afraid of, so they entered the door in front of them and closed the door with a "bang".

The glamorous woman with thin eyebrows and red lips was angry, it was really a rude flat-headed minor, patting her chest, and the two maids comforted her for a while, and then she returned to the house angrily, and the two maids were about to close the door.

There was the sound of horses' hooves outside, and it was not early, even the north camp gate was closed, how could there be the sound of horses' hooves, and curiously, the door closed more slowly, and then I saw a pair of long legs calmly riding on the horse, and when I passed by the door, I slowed down and stopped Mahler at the next gate.

The man on the horse was dressed in a dark single coat, with a gray belt around his waist, and a pair of black boots on his legs, only a man with gray embroidery on the neckline, belt, and cuffs.

The movements when dismounting were extremely chic, and the straight and slender figure was suddenly visible, and with a little light left outside, and the sky was not completely dark, it was still clear that the slender black eyes contained in the sharp black eyes, and the thin lips were pursed.

Looking at the two maids standing at the door, their hearts were pounding, like eagles in the night, cold and arrogant, lonely and compelling.

The man got off the horse and hurried to the door, wanting to knock on the door, but he stopped, hesitated, or stretched out his hand and knocked on the third, and then looked at the sign at the door, and even touched it with his hand.

As soon as there was a knock on the door outside, Tan Wanqing, who was holding a bowl in the house and had only eaten two bites, immediately heard it, she hurriedly asked Ruizhu to open the door, Ruizhu was a little inexplicable, if someone usually knocked on the house of the two women at this time, it would be half scared to death, why did the young lady hear it, and asked her to open the door, can you still know who it is?

Seeing that the young lady was urging like this, I vaguely thought, could it be Lord Xie in the secret way?

is all hung up on the Xie Mansion, presumably no one dares to come except him.

I had to go out and open the door, and sure enough, there was his shiny black horse outside the door.

If before, she would definitely have blocked the door, Miss was asleep, and she would have said something tomorrow, or simply not open the door, but now, she and Miss are living under other people's roofs, how can they have the courage to drive people out of other people's houses.

Rui Zhu only glanced at it, the other party's face was gloomy, especially the eyes of the ground, being stared at, Rui Zhu suddenly looked like a mouse seeing a cat, didn't dare to have any movement, ran to the side, let into the yard, turned back and quietly closed the door The sound was still frightened and unstable, looking at this fierce look, Miss's angry face in the afternoon was not enough to see, compared with it, it was not even a little bit incomparable, it was really terrible.

The other outside has not closed the door, the two maids and their wives who saw this scene stood there, did not move for a long time, their faces were shocked, the tall man just now was indeed Lord Xie, there is no doubt that the house next to it is really Xie Mansion, there are actually two poor girls living in Xie Mansion, how can this not be shocking? How could the garrison have a relationship with two poor girls who rented a house, and this house is obviously a Zheng house, how could it become a Xie house, what the hell is going on.

turned out to be a neighbor with Master Xie, the young and beautiful woman with thin eyebrows and red lips was surprised, and before she had time to be surprised, she couldn't help biting her lower lip, and her mood suddenly became bad.

Xie Chengzu entered the house with a familiar car, and when he raised his hand to open the curtain in the inner room, he saw that under the light, the gentle and soft person with skin better than snow was standing at the table with slightly lowered eyes, and when he came in, a pair of beautiful eyes raised slightly to look at him, and the vivid gaze under the candlelight made him reluctant to move away for a while.
