After sitting bored for a while, the three women gathered together and talked about it lightly. Zhang Nanguang, the www.biquge.info of the pen, fun and pavilion, specially introduced some customs and customs in the southeast of Xiangzhou, Jinzhou, Liuzhou and other areas for Song Mier and Yuan Wanyou, especially mentioning that Liuzhou is next to Qingzhou, there is a hilly tea plantation, and many of the tea products in it are Yugong tea, and also mentioned some interesting stories about tea picking. Although Song Mier is a person from the south of the Yangtze River, but most of the time he lives in the capital with his parents, he is not very clear about picking tea or something, listening to Zhang Nanguang say this, he is a little interested, but asked Zhang Nanguang to introduce it well, Zhang Nanguang rarely talked about the topic that the queen mother is interested in, and he also racked his brains, and told everything he had told from hearsay, personal experience and the geographical chronicles that he had nothing to do, and he was so dry that he drank a lot of tea.

The banquet is about to end, Song Mier looked, the guests and hosts were happy, the monarchs and ministers were lucky, and there was harmony, she pursed her lips and smiled, and she didn't know if this line was in line with Shen Zhan's wishes.

When the banquet was over, everyone immediately dispersed like a tide. Because there are palace concubines, there is only one passage in this restaurant, and the palace concubines can't be asked to go out in front of everyone, after all, there are too many foreign men, and they are some strange civilians. Therefore, I had to stay at the end, and when the crowd had evacuated, the guards surrounded the restaurant, and then walked out.

"Do you want to go out for a walk?"

Shen Zhan stood in front of Song Mier and asked with a smile.

"Let's go? Where to? ”

"Taking advantage of the lack of people, I will take you around Liuzhou." Shen Zhan's eyes smiled, "I just heard that Mi'er seems to be quite interested in the terroir of Liuzhou, why don't you see it with your own eyes?" ”

Song Mier's eyes lit up, "Really? Then he frowned again, "But the concubine is dressed like this......"

All three of them were wearing palace clothes, especially Song Mier, who was the queen's mother.

"Well, come on!" Shen Zhan signaled, but it was Yuan Xue beside him who stepped forward with a wooden box.

"It's ......"

Song Mier's eyes rolled.

"I've guessed what else to pretend!" Shen Zhan nodded Song Mier's nose, "Well, the clothes are all prepared for you, there is a box on the top floor here, let's go and change our clothes later." ”

"What are you going to do?"

As early as when Shen Zhan turned into the screen to talk to Song Mier, Yuan Wanyou and Zhang Nanguang saluted and stood aside honestly.

Zhang Nanguang was afraid of upsetting Shen Zhan, and anyone with a discerning eye knew that he couldn't go to the intersection at this time, but Yuan Wanyou didn't care, she was happy to tell her to talk to Song Mier, but she didn't want to say anything to Shen Zhan if she was fine.

Therefore, when Shen Zhan asked them what their plans were, Yuan Wanyou knew that it was just Shen Zhan wanting to take the two of them for a walk, so he immediately replied: "The concubine is very tired after a tiring journey in the past few days, so I will go back to the manor first." ”

Shen Zhan nodded, "Then you have a good rest." ”

looked at Zhang Nanguang again.

Zhang Nanguang glanced at Yuan Wanyou, and then at Song Mier's expression, hesitated for a while, and then whispered, "The concubine is a person from the southeast, and she is quite familiar with Xiangzhou and Liuzhou...... I'm afraid it's not easy to find......"

After that, he looked at Shen Zhan and Song Mier with a look of hope.

"In that case, follow along!"

Shen Zhan didn't take it to heart, and when he saw that Song Mi'er's expression was not unhappy, he responded.

"Thank you, Your Majesty! Thank you! ”

Zhang Nanguang couldn't help but be elated, the corners of her mouth were upturned, and her face was slightly red with excitement, which made her slightly stingy appearance look a little cuter.

Song Mier pouted at Yuan Wanyou, in exchange for Yuan Wanyou's deliberate white eyes, but Song Mier wanted to laugh again, and asked Chukong to accompany him to the box to change clothes.

Shen Zhan actually prepared the hat.

Because he didn't know which one Song Mier liked to wear, Shen Zhan ordered someone to prepare five sets of clothes for Song Mier to choose, that is, even the hat was a set of clothes and a hat, with different styles and colors. It's cheaper than Zhang Nanguang.

Zhang Nanguang followed behind Song Mier, and after Song Mier chose a set of clothes, he carefully took the most inconspicuous moon-white cardigan embroidered cardigan dress, his heart was jealous and sour, but he couldn't do anything.

After changing his clothes, Shen Zhan also changed into a purple Hangzhou silk jacket and walked out of the restaurant together.

Because he had to divide into two ways, Shen Zhan was not worried that Yuan Wanyou would go back alone, but he called half of the guards to accompany him, and there were secret guards by his side, so it was okay. Song Mier called Qinghe and Yu Lan to follow again, leaving only Zhu Lu and the delicious Chukong.

Originally, he went outside in Weifu, Zhang Nanguang naturally understood that if there were too many people with him, the battle was too big, and he might have some trouble if he was recognized, so he naturally asked his palace servants to go back, and there was no one left around. Seeing Song Mier look at him in surprise, Zhang Nanguang smiled naturally, "The concubine volunteered to be a guide for His Majesty and Niangniang, and she is the one who serves Your Majesty and Niangniang, where do you want others to serve!" ”

After saying a few words, it was a lot more pleasing to Song Mi'er to look at her.

Wearing the hat, Song Mier and Zhang Nanguang followed Shen Zhan and walked out.

Because tomorrow is the spring season, there are a lot fewer people on the street, fortunately, Liuzhou is also prosperous, there has never been a curfew in the calendar, and because of His Majesty's southern tour and it is even more festive, the stalls and shops on the street are still open. There are still queues at many stalls.

Although Shen Zhan spoke on the rooftop during the day, the people were far away after all, and they didn't dare to look directly at the true face of the Son of Heaven, so Shen Zhan changed his clothes, and the people around him only thought that he was a noble person who came to Liuzhou because of His Majesty's southern tour, but he didn't want to go shopping to His Majesty. The surrounding guards and secret guards were scattered in the crowd, and only Lu Xun and Bo Yin were left by Shen Zhan's side.

After shopping for half an hour, Chukong's hands were also full of all kinds of pastries to eat, Song Mier still had a piece of jade cake in his mouth, and before he knew it, everyone walked to the front of a deep alley.

Today's Shen Zhan's interest is also quite high, he deeply feels that his Chunqiu reform is a good thing for the country and the people, from today's students and the people's reactions can be seen, the calendar has advocated for officials not to look at their origins, and they do not distinguish between poverty and nobility, the emperors of the past dynasties have also made continuous efforts in this regard, but this situation is not a moment and a half can change, although the Great Calendar is now a lot of Han Shi officials, but the Chunqiu reform can not only change the situation of the imperial court, facilitate Shen Zhan's own government, but also further improve the gap between the nobles and the people, It is not that all resources are in the hands of the aristocracy.

Take your time, one step at a time! Shen Zhan thought slowly in his heart.

"What people!"

Just as he felt that the future was very good, Shen Zhan suddenly heard Bo Yin shouting, he rushed forward, Shen Zhan immediately pulled Song Mier to his side, Zhang Nanguang's face turned pale, and he glanced at Song Mier sourly, biting his lip and standing on the other side of Shen Zhan. Lu Xun also spontaneously stood in front of Shen Zhan and Song Mier. The guards around them didn't move, just stared intently ahead.

After a while, I saw Bo Yin mention someone out.

It was vaguely visible that it was a thin young man, who was carried by Bo Yin, very relaxed, and everyone breathed a sigh of relief.

When Bo Yin got closer, he realized that something was wrong.

"What's going on?!"

Shen Zhan frowned and asked.

But it was the person Bo Yin was carrying, who was only wearing a middle coat, but the clothes were stained with blood, and the blood stains were dark in color, which must not have been caused by Bo Yin.

Bo Yin put the man on the ground, and before he could speak, the man lay on the ground and kept kowtowing, his voice was broken, but he could still hear the man: "Your Majesty, help!" Please Your Majesty save me, please Your Majesty save us......"

"How did you know I was here?" Shen Zhan asked reflexively, but the surrounding dark guards were nervous, and they came from all around in an instant, but fortunately, this was a deep alley, but it did not attract the attention of others.

Being disturbed by someone, the mood was naturally not good, Shen Zhan guessed the intention of this person, and his tone was unconsciously much heavier.

The man had never seen such a battle, and he was immediately frightened by the guards, and immediately sat down with his legs limp and slumped.

"Grass People...... Grass Folk ......"

"Get up and speak!" Shen Zhan said unhappily.

"Back to Your Majesty, this person is out of strength."

The man didn't stand up for a long time, and Bo Yin stepped forward to check, but found that he couldn't stand up at all.

Shen Zhan was stunned, and his gaze at the man was not so cold, "What is the matter?" "Why did this person run out of strength?

"Your Majesty...... Ask Your Majesty to ......" The man trembled, stretched out his hand to take something out of his arms, the guards around him waited for a long time, but he saw that the man took out a dark red cotton cloth from his arms, he stretched out his hand and handed it up, Shen Zhan nodded, Bo Yin quickly took the cotton cloth, shook it open and checked it, and found that there was nothing abnormal, so he presented his hands to Shen Zhan, but his face was a little heavy. didn't wait for Shen Zhan to speak, but after bowing, he turned around and helped the man up, and asked the man to lean on his body.

Shen Zhan glanced at Bo Yin, did not speak, and turned his head to look at the cotton cloth in his hand, but at a glance, he looked horrified, "Come with a lantern!" Then he quickly spread the cotton cloth under the lamp and looked at it carefully.

Song Mier stood beside Shen Zhan, and also looked at the cotton cloth curiously, it turned out that it was not dark red cotton cloth at all, it was a white cotton cloth, and the dark red was full of handwriting, and he could smell a faint smell of blood!

Blood Book!

Song Mier looked up at the man in surprise, only to find that his face was pale, his lips were chapped, he was still barefoot, and there were wounds on his exposed skin, some of which had already formed scars, and some of which were still oozing blood!

Song Mier's heart trembled, he couldn't bear to look at it anymore, and turned his head to look at Shen Zhan's expression, but he saw that his face was gloomy, his brows were furrowed, and his hand that grabbed the cotton cloth was very hard, and the green tendons on it could be seen.

"Very good! Very good! ”

Shen Zhan's face was gloomy, but his lips were hooked, and the words he spit out made people feel like they were gritting their teeth, and Song Mier felt that he could even hear the sound of Shen Zhan's teeth rubbing.

"Say!" Shen Zhan's eyes were like torches.

"Your Majesty......" The man leaned on Bo Yin and was angry, "We, the grass people are all students of Jinzhou, Liuzhou, and some Xiangzhou, Your Majesty, after the Spring Rebellion was restructured, we were all very happy, and often got together to talk, that, that day, the students ate in a restaurant in Jinzhou, but somehow fainted, and when we woke up, we were all locked in a dim basement, hungry for several days, and there were many brute force slaves guarding the door, and there were many brute force slaves guarding the door......"

This person's name is Xu Zimo, he is a person from Jinzhou, his family is in business, and he only had the idea of studying when he came here, but the famous teacher is not good to worship, and the good school is not close, and they are doing business at home, and there is not much relationship between reading, so he is really anxious, but he suddenly heard the decree of the new emperor after the enthronement of the Chunqiu reform, once this decree is implemented, it is of great benefit to him, and he is naturally ecstatic, he and Jinzhou, Liuzhou many students who are similar to his identity, but have always studied well, After celebrating this news for several days, Liuzhou has a public school where the Song family teacher is in, which is better than better, so they invited each other to come to Liuzhou together, waiting to worship a famous teacher as a teacher.

But they didn't want to eat in a restaurant one day, and when they woke up, more than 20 people in their group were all locked up in a cellar.

At first, they thought it was a kidnapping, after all, most of them were well-off or even very wealthy, and they begged and promised for several days, but the guards were unmoved, and they gradually felt that something was wrong.

He was hungry for several days, and was given only a little water every day. At the moment, they still have a lot of respect for scholars, and they pointed out that they are all scholars, and they don't know where they have offended nobles, and they are willing to let themselves live.

The guards were still unmoved, they were hungry and cold, many of them couldn't stand it and fainted early, and the rest of the people were also very unhappy, just like this dazed and nightmuffled for a long time, they didn't know how long it was, a few classmates couldn't help but scold, the guards smiled coldly: "Don't blame the brothers for being ruthless, you didn't offend any nobles, you offended countless nobles!" Don't want to ask who it is, we are also taking people's money and eliminating disasters for others, who told you not to know what is good or bad, but you want to work with the nobles, and openly incite the students to support the reform of the Chunqiu! You're in the way of others, and you still want to live?! ”

They thought it was a kidnapping, but when they saw that these people had not asked them to write letters to their families, they wondered if it was because of some trivial matter or inadvertently offended someone that they suffered this misfortune, and they never expected that it would be such a reason!

And the guards said it so easily, they were even more panicked, knowing the inside story, or is this the reason, will the mastermind behind the scenes let them live?!

In order to survive, they have done everything in the cellar, even eaten excrement, and even pretended to be crazy and stupid, just to die and understand! Later, they were asked to find out that there were several such cellars! The prisoners are all students who support the reform of the Chunqiu system like them! Even, they had seen the figure of the governor's staff flashing outside, and they suspected that the officials of Liuzhou were involved in this matter!

They were already numb with fear.

But today the guard said, "After these ten days, they will be able to go home."

These ten days are just the days when they should have participated in the Spring Festival! And to go home, is it really alive, or is it being carried home?

On this day, they heard that His Majesty was on a southern tour, and the officials of Liuzhou held a banquet in the restaurant in the evening, and they were greeted by His Majesty's students from Chunqiu, and they didn't know if it was because of this reason, the guards around the cellar were much lax, so they wrote a blood letter, some people made meat shields, and some people led away the guards, so that one person escaped first, and he must vomit out this grievance and resentment!

"Student...... The students were the thinnest, so they called the students to take the opportunity to act, took the blood book and escaped, the students overheard the place where His Majesty went to the banquet, and stayed here for a long time, and when those people were scattered, they didn't see His Majesty come out, I thought His Majesty had left first, and I didn't want to see a few extraordinarily dressed nobles before they walked out of the restaurant...... The student thought, maybe it's Your Majesty...... So I wanted to follow His Majesty secretly, but I didn't dare to shout in the bright hall...... I'm afraid, I'm afraid that before I can say it, I'll have someone kill you...... However, in a blink of an eye, His Majesty disappeared, and the students, the students thought they were dead like this, but they didn't want to see His Majesty again......"

The student named Xu Zimo spoke intermittently, and finally cried, "Your Majesty, those classmates of mine, in order to let me escape, all died, all died!" Also, there are many classmates who don't know where they are locked up...... Your Majesty, the officials are ruthless, please call the shots for us! ”

As early as when Xu Zimo was talking intermittently, Song Mier's face changed, and Zhang Nanguang was even more frightened, and his teeth chattered, and he almost softened to the ground...... This, which sentence of this information Xu Zimo said is not shocking? I'm afraid this is a big case that implicates the entire Liuzhou! This is no longer a matter of any official getting off the horse! Obstructing the Spring Festival, kidnapping students, attempting to interfere in government affairs, and even, if one is not good, it can also involve the great crime of rebellion to subvert the regime!

Where are these people putting Your Majesty?! Where to put the imperial power?! Where is the foundation of the Great Calendar placed?!

"Do you remember the approximate location of the cellar, tell me!"

"Lu Xun, take him to the nearby medical hall for good student placement, and the rest of the people, follow me to have a look!"

"Your Majesty, no! The Son of Heaven does not sit in the hall, but still asks the slaves to go to explore first, Your Majesty's safety is important, I am afraid that this is a trap......! An Jin was very anxious and hurriedly stopped it.

"How can you wait?! Even the trap has to be explored! Shen Zhan glanced at An Jin deeply, "You follow me!" He turned around and whispered to Song Mier, and walked forward.

Song Mier followed closely, Zhang Nanguang couldn't, so he had to follow behind hard.

She secretly regretted it in her heart, screaming that it was not good, she had known that she would go back with Concubine Shu, and now she has become like this with a good night tour, and she has heard such a secret thing, and she is not embarrassed by her own identity! How to deal with yourself?!

Now that she is leaving, she is afraid of danger, but Song Mier has stayed, how can she still leave?!

Zhang Nanguang cursed in a low voice, walked a few steps quickly and followed.

The cellar only got a rough location, and the student didn't remember it very clearly, just because he was weak and drowsy, he only pointed out a general direction to Shen Zhan and a few people, and then fainted.

The location given by the student, there is only a small courtyard nearby, and it looks like a courtyard that has been prepared early. Shen Zhan's face sank even more. There were no guards at the entrance of the courtyard, and I don't know if they had escaped or had been dealt with by the students.

"Let's go inside!" Shen Zhan lifted his chin.

The guards pushed the door open, and a burst of blood came over their faces.

Song Mier involuntarily took a step back and almost crashed into Zhang Nanguang's body.

Song Mier didn't even have the heart to say sorry, because the scene in front of him was too tragic.

Those who were dressed in medium clothes or tattered and dirty coats should be those students, at this moment they all fell to the ground miserably, some of them were stabbed several times, their gray clothes were stained blood red, some fell to the nearest place from the door, they were still two steps away from escaping, their hands were still stretched out in the direction of the door, their eyes were wide open, they did not bare to death, some of them curled up, covering their wounds, as if they had been killed by pain, the ground was full of stumps, all dark red blood, and there were many more students, and they were also pressing or pulling a guard in gray linen clothes, He never let go until he died, and they all died together......

"Your Majesty, there is no ...... left in your life"

Bo Yin followed a few guards to probe one by one, shaking his head heavily.

Shen Zhan's face darkened, and he sighed softly, "Leave a few to stay outside, and the rest of the people will follow me in to have a look." ”

"Queen, tell your palace people to follow."

Chu Kong, who had been following Song Mier, had already turned pale with fright, and couldn't say a word, Zhu Lu held her hand tightly and carefully protected her and Song Mier. As for Zhang Nanguang in the back? Take care of it when you have time!

The group crossed the verandah, passed the weeping flower gate, and vaguely saw a few side rooms in the depths of the flowers and trees, Shen Zhan and Song Mier glanced at each other, and walked forward.

"Your Majesty, be careful!"

"!"

Suddenly, Song Mier only heard the sound of the wind in his ears, followed by the shouts of Zhu Lu and the guards, he seemed to be pushed by someone, and then saw the purple beside him hugging him, and then the sound of weapons colliding, Song Mier felt that the scenery in front of him was getting more and more dim, and he was getting more and more confused, and then he sank into darkness......
