054: Message
When I woke up, it was the early morning of the next day.
The sky was slightly bright, and only the shadows of the buildings could be faintly seen.
After Shen Niannian woke up, he lit the oil lamp, and then took out all the money on his body and began to plan his future path.
Tuozi Village couldn't go back, and before she left, she had already thought about the consequences of leaving this time.
Shen Xiuniang is not an ordinary country woman, when she sees those things in her house, she will definitely wonder if she is really Shen Niannian, so she ran away this time and cut off one of her own back roads.
She had only rented this house for three months, and spent one tael of silver, plus those that were scattered and spent, and the total was no more than three taels, so now she still had four hundred taels of silver tickets in her hand, and eight silver tickets of ten taels, two taels of broken silver left, and eight hundred and sixty copper coins.
Now there are two ways in front of her, one is to find a way to find out the news of her eldest cousin with the people in the barracks, and then directly find out the whereabouts of her father, and the other is to use the only few hundred taels of silver in her hand to go to the government to get a road guide.
Although the border has temporarily achieved peace under the control of King Ling, in fact, since the new emperor ascended the throne, in just two or three years, the Eastern Yi Dynasty has been full of complaints.
In Shen Niannian's opinion, although the current emperor is not a tyrant, he is a real faint monarch!
I can't hear the disobedience of loyal ministers, and it is a traitorous minister of the court who is in power.
This mediocre emperor even has soft ears, as long as those concubines blow the pillow wind slightly, it means that the rival families behind them are defeated.
Her maiden home back then. Anyway, he also has the position of marquis, isn't it also under the mouth of that Concubine Liu, not to mention being cut down, and even causing his father to be released and banned from entering Beijing for the rest of his life? !
Shen Niannian saw it very clearly, today's Dongyi Dynasty has long been suffering from internal and external troubles, but the emperor in the palace still thinks that he is sitting on a prosperous country, and the people live and work in peace and contentment, but he doesn't know. Since he came to power. Spending money like earth, smiling for the Pomeranians, it is actually a generous construction of the Golden Phoenix Pavilion, the bricks and tiles of the Golden Wind Pavilion are expensive glass. The floor is paved with a layer of shining gold bricks. The beams that support the palace are priceless rosewood.
Just to build such a palace that covers an area of four acres. It actually spent millions of gold, emptied the treasury, and even raised the people's taxes. It's a lot of complaints.
But the emperor was still complacent, completely unaware of this act, I don't know how many loyal ministers were chilled, and the people were miserable!
Therefore, the Eastern Yi Dynasty can be said to be not very peaceful, if the people want to go to another place, they must get the customs clearance documents issued by the local government, as well as the road guide.
If there is no way to guide this thing, once it is discovered, then whether it has been a noble or not, it should be treated as an exile, and it will be arrested and put in prison, waiting to be disposed of!
Shen Niannian frowned, if he took these silver taels and dotted them, it shouldn't be a problem for Lu Yin, but the entanglement along the way was not enough.
Quite Du Shengnian, she sighed lightly, she hadn't seen her eldest cousin for two years, they had long been estranged from each other, and the matter of borrowing her corpse to resurrect her soul could never be mentioned to him, if you wanted to get news from him, you must get him drunk.
At this time, Shen Niannian didn't know that someone in the border city had been investigating her whereabouts, and after thinking about it, she felt that it was only reliable to get her eldest cousin drunk.
Du Shengnian was also an elegant son, chanting poetry and painting, liking fine wine, but the amount of wine was pitiful, and after getting drunk, he would know everything and say everything.
A dark light flashed in Shen Niannian's eyes, and he faintly felt a little remorseful.
Why didn't I think of this method before, I only remembered it now, otherwise there wouldn't be so much trouble now!
Putting the silver ticket away, she looked at the sky outside, and touched her belly, which was already rumbling.
After sleeping all day, I was already hungry, but it was still early at this time, and there was no breakfast stall yet, so I could only temporarily grieve my stomach.
Waiting for the sky to light up, Shen Niannian retracted into bed and slept lightly for a while, and waited until the sound of birdsong sounded outside the window, and the sky was white, then he hurriedly got up, cleaned himself up, put on a mask and a few taels of silver, and then walked out of the house.
There were other tenants in this small courtyard that I rented, all of whom were lonely women and widows.
will rent here, all because she doesn't dare to rent a small courtyard alone, otherwise if something happens, then she really won't even go out to cry.
When he walked out of the house, he saw the mistress of the main room come out, carrying a small basket in her hand, and lock the door with a sad face.
Would you rent a woman here? Most of them also do small businesses in the county, otherwise the money they earn is simply not enough for them to pay the rent.
Shen Niannian didn't say hello to the man, locked the door and walked out directly.
I went shopping with Shen Xiuniang in the county two days ago, so she knew very well where she could eat breakfast.
Out of the courtyard, Shen Niannian saw that there were more people on the street, people doing business? Most of them get up very early, and the border is a place where merchants from all over the world come, so it is extremely prosperous, and because of this, the rent here can be compared to the corner area of Kyoto, but many of the extremely expensive gadgets sold in Kyoto are sold very cheaply here.
Shen Niannian found a wonton stall according to his memory, directly asked for a bowl of wontons, and sat down.
The business of this wonton stall looks very good, and not long after Shen Niannian sat down, there were people who came to eat breakfast one after another, and before her, there were obviously many bowls of wontons sold here.
Looking around at the prosperity of the border city, Shen Niannian also wanted to do business here.
It's just that she is just a powerless woman, and the only things she can hold are female red and paintings.
It is obviously not suitable to make a living by painting, she ran out without permission, and if she meets the villagers of Tuozi Village, it will be a big trouble.
When she was sad, the boss had already brought over a large bowl of wontons, and said with a courteous smile, "This guest officer, a bowl of chaotic fifteen cents, go to the table to settle the bill, please settle the bill first." ”
Shen Niannian nodded, took out fifteen copper coins and handed them to the boss, and was about to lift the mask when he heard the two ladies at the same table talking.
"The officers and men in the barracks came out yesterday, and I don't know what happened, will there be a war?" The lady in the blue and gray cotton dress sighed worriedly.
