Chapter 381: Eloping with Uncle
Fang Xiaoru left in a rage, and the marriage between the two families naturally fell through.
Xia Xun has already decided on this ending, which is an inevitable ending after Xu Ming'er ascended to the Shengqi Building and the other party Xiaoru sneered, and even the road of other forms of alliance between Fang and Xu was blocked together.
Fang Xiaoru is a character who would rather bend than bend, he is not a role that can endure humiliation for the sake of the overall situation, and this person has always been burdened, although he needs the support of Zhongshan Wangfu now, but in his heart, once the alliance is made, he will give Zhongshan Wangfu far more support than he can get, so how can he accept such humiliation.
What's more, the civil and military officials present have brought together the forces of various factions in the DPRK and China, no matter how fierce they are in the court, they can't be rude in this kind of wedding and funeral matter, there is no need to completely tear their faces, so they are all here today. Now that they have the opportunity to use the little county lord's refusal to marry to destroy the alliance between Fang Xiaoru and the Zhongshan Palace, they are not stupid birds, they are far older and more spicy in the officialdom than people like Xia Xun, and they are more able to seize opportunities, will they let it go?
As expected, these old fritters in the officialdom saw that they could not afford to lose the opportunity, and immediately used all kinds of means that were ostensibly persuasion, but in fact added fuel to the fire, and successfully provoked Fang Xiaoru away. In today's words, Fang Xiaoru is a municipal university professor who has taught books for half his life, teaching classical literature, and has been doing knowledge in the pile of old papers.
What kind of people are these officials, they have been fluttering in the sea for half their lives, and they can mix from Zhu Yuanzhang's stubborn old man who doesn't rub sand in his eyes to the present, which one is not a human spirit, if you talk about playing with the eyes of the heart and moving power, how can Fang Xiaoru compare to them. So if they don't persuade them, the more they persuade Fang Xiaoru, the more angry they become, they can't stay for a moment, and they immediately flick their sleeves and leave.
Mu En's pestle was there, listening to a sentence here, let's say a sentence there, patchwork together, but he also understood what was going on, seeing that this gift could not be given, Mu En hurriedly said hello to the four palace guards, and took the things back.
In a moment's effort, through the mouths of the civil and military officials and their servants and even every coachman and sedan chair driver, the incident that happened in Shengqilou quickly spread in Jinling City.
Luo Kedi only smiled slightly after hearing about this, he was also happy to see the destruction of the Fang Xu Alliance, and he felt that such a result was very good. But then when the people who monitored Xu Zengshou rushed to report Xu Zengshou's actions, they brought a piece of news by the way: the little county lord did not return to the Zhongshan Palace, and Wei Guocheng answered the guests of all parties in the Shengqi Building, and he didn't know the news.
The person in charge of monitoring Xu Zengshou was Ye An, and the news was sent back by him. Luo Kedi was only stunned when he heard the news, and he didn't think about it deeply, but asked casually: "Presumably, she also knew that she would be punished by her brother when she went back, and went to live at the house of relatives and friends?" ”
Ye An said: "The county lord came out of the Shengqi Building, and got into a carriage, looking at its appearance, it is not like the Zhongshan Wangfu car, and there are no accompanying subordinates on the left and right, and the humble position feels strange, because he saw that the Governor of Xu Dadu is still on the Shengqi Building, and he may not leave for a while, so he let the two people follow." ”
Roque sighed: "What is the result?" ”
Ye An took a breath and said: "As a result, the car walked through the streets and alleys, and all the way down, it seems that many people have already responded, and many methods have been used to get rid of tracking, our people ...... I lost it. ”
Luo Kedi's eyebrows raised slightly: "Oh! Lost it? ”
There are many ways for a car to get rid of tracking, such as deliberately taking a narrow alley that only allows one car to pass through, preparing in advance, as soon as the car goes out, immediately drive into a car from the opposite side, deliberately blocking the alley, so that the people who drop out behind cannot keep up, then it only takes a moment of effort to track the target and lose a trace.
There are many similar methods, and Luo Kedi didn't ask in detail, the problem is that the people he sent are by no means easy to follow, and the means of tracking and anti-tracking are quite clever, and they will be lost, so the preparations made by the other party and the power used cannot be ignored, not only must there be a huge force, but this person must never be a layman in this business.
Ye An said: "Yes, I lost it." When they caught up again, they saw seven or eight identical cars, driving in different directions. ”
"Then this safe car ......"
"I went to check it, and someone rented a full ten cars with a fake identity, and the clues were broken, and I couldn't check it."
Luo Kedi was silent for a while, Xu Ming'er was homesick, it didn't matter! It's just that the children of noble families have trouble with their families, but Xu Ming'er also has a big brother-in-law, and that is His Royal Highness King Yan, who is the powerful and domineering King Yan, and now that he is contacted, I am afraid that his actions on the winning chess floor will not be so simple.
After she refused to marry in public on the Shengqi Tower, destroying the alliance between the Zhongshan Mansion and Fang Xiaoru, someone actually used so many people to help her escape, and even Jinyiwei's spies could get rid of it......
Luo Kedi got up and paced for a while, his eyes gradually sharpened, he stood up, and said slowly: "King Yan's secret spy!" It must be King Yan's secret spy who is doing this, and immediately concentrate on investigating her whereabouts, maybe we can find the person we have been trying to catch but can't catch from her! ”
As soon as he said this, Chen Dong rushed to report breathlessly: "My lord, the envoys of the Shanhou Kingdom are about to leave the capital, and Meng Shilang is arranging vehicles to escort them out of the city. ”
"Huh?"
Luo Kedi's heart churned urgently: "Xu Miaojin destroyed the marriage between the Xu family and the Fang family, and then he was picked up and cleverly escaped. Then the envoys of the Shanhou Kingdom left Beijing, and not long before that, Xu Miaojin had gone to Honglu Temple to see the prince of Shanhou, and it seemed that ......"
Luo Kedi's eyes lit up, and he blurted out: "Quick, immediately intercept the mission of the mountain country!" ”
※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※
At the Shangfang Gate, a group of cars slowly drove out of the city gate.
Meng Fusheng sat in the car and smiled at He Tianyang on the side: "In the past few months, Meng and the prince have gotten along very happily, and today the prince returns to China, Meng is a little reluctant. ”
He Tianyang said: "Xiao Wang is the same, thanks to Lord He's care all the time, after a few years, Tianyang will definitely come to the kingdom again, and there will still be a time to meet with adults." ”
As he spoke, Fang Yupei had already gone down his sleeve.
"Fanbang small country, overseas lonely land, there is really nothing to get your hands on, Xiao Wang returned to China this time, specially bought a lot of gifts in the city "Golden Jade Fang", ready to go back to the father and the queen, the queen mother, and relatives and friends, see this jade pendant is very beautiful, so I also bought it, today it is given to this adult, a small gift, talk about Xiao Wang's gratitude to adults"
"Oops! Prince, this can not be helped, it is the duty of the official to entertain the prince, how can he accept the prince's thanks. ”
He Tianyang said: "This little thing, there is nothing else to do, I just hope that Lord Meng will see things and think about people, remember the friendship between you and me today, and remember that there is a friend of Xiao Wang in overseas foreign lands." If the adult refuses, it is a rejection of Xiao Wang's affection, and please accept it! ”
"This ...... This ......, since the prince said so, it is inconvenient for the lower official to resign, thank you for the prince's favor, this official is ashamed. ”
When the jade pendant was handed to him, a slight line flashed, and he saw that it was white and shiny, and it was indeed a beautiful jade, and the texture was clear and clear, which was the best. Waiting for the heavy jade to start, he felt that the touch was warm and greasy, Meng Fusheng rubbed the jade pendant twice with his thumb in his sleeve, feeling its delicate texture, and secretly said in his heart: "If it is really a superb jade, this texture must be a Khotanese mutton fat jade, gold is priceless jade, this is a priceless treasure!" ”
Thinking in his heart, his sleeves drooped down, and the jade pendant of the mutton fat jade slipped into the bag, and Meng Fusheng pinched it again, and then he was down. When I talked to He Tianyang again, I was really reluctant.
"Stop! Hold it! Parking checks! ”
As soon as the car left Shangfangmen, before it reached the ten-mile long pavilion, several errand officers came up with knives.
The officers and soldiers escorted by Honglu Temple said angrily: "Blind your dog's eyes, didn't you see that this is the car of Honglu Temple?" ”
The inspector said neither humbly nor arrogantly: "I'm sorry, I am also acting on orders, and I ask my colleagues in Honglu Temple to be considerate." ”
Meng Fusheng frowned, got up and walked out of the car, went to that station, and shouted majestically: "What's the matter?" ”
"It's them, it's them, they kidnapped my daughter, my daughter......"
An old man with a white beard staggered up, beating his chest and sobbing loudly.
A group of men with knives and guns surrounded them, looking at the uniforms, they should be the servants of Ying Tianfu, and there is also an official in the official uniform, who has the highest rank among these people, and should be their leader.
Seeing that this pusher is only about thirty years old, although he is only a five-grade official, but he is responsible for local security and investigation at the feet of the Son of Heaven, and the number of people in the yamen of the inspection department is more than that of a province in other places, so the authority is extremely heavy, and he did not seem cramped and panicked when he saw Meng Shilang, a third-grade official, but just arched his hand and said to Meng Fusheng: "Your Excellency, this person reported to the official, in this line of driving, someone abducted his daughter, where the official's duty is, I have to investigate, and please ask the adult to make it convenient, Let the subordinate send someone to search. ”
"It's nonsense!"
Meng Shilang flicked his sleeves and said angrily: "This is the envoy of the Mountain Houguo, who came to make a pilgrimage to the Son of Heaven of our country, and returned to the country today, and the official escorted him away at the behest of the Son of Heaven. ”
I don't want to push the official but it is quite a bit of a "strong order" posture, I am not afraid, and I said in a loud voice: "The lower official is in charge of the criminal name of the government and maintains the law and order of the capital, regardless of the princes and ministers, civil and military officials, but for illegal things, the lower officials can get it!" Now there are sufferers here, just because they are foreign envoys, can't the lower officials find out? The duties of the lower officials, please don't embarrass the lower officials, and allow the lower officials to search for it, if there are really hidden folk girls in the car, then the lower officials will take them all back and hand them over to Lord Yin of the Mansion to send them down. If the accusation is false, the subordinate will kowtow to your lord and apologize. ”
"You're bold!"
Meng Shilang's duty, how could he let him search the foreign envoy's vehicle, besides, he has a short hand, he just received the best jade pendant from someone else, how can he ignore it, he was about to scold again, He Tianyang walked out of the car, and said with a smile: "The behavior is frank, the natural heart is upright, the heart of the adult is maintained, Xiao Wang's heart is understood, he wants to check, let him check it." ”
Meng Fusheng glanced at him worriedly, and hesitated: "Prince......"
He Tianyang said with a smile: "Don't worry, my lord, although Xiao Wang is a member of a small country in Fanbang, and he also learns the culture of the Heavenly Dynasty, how can he do such a traitorous thing." ”
Meng Fusheng waved his hand at this time, and let the escort officers and soldiers of Honglu Temple flash aside, and the pusher pressed the knife and led the white-bearded old man who complained to carefully check it car by car.
More than a dozen carts were all searched, and all the servants and maids were also lined up on the ground, and one by one the old man looked at them carefully, but he could not find the old man's daughter, the old man blinked, and said a little dazedly: "That's right, the neighbor was stunned and said that the old man's daughter was taken away by such a group of cars, why didn't he see anyone?" ”
"Bastard! If you slander the foreign envoys, this official will punish you severely when you go back! ”
The pusher was furious, and scolded the old man a few words, before turning to Meng Fusheng and laughing: "Lord Shilang, the lower official is reckless, turn around......"
Meng Fusheng smiled coldly and said, "Turn around, this official will go to Yingtianfu, meet your Mansion Yin Wang Hongrui, and ask him how Lord Wang disciplines his subordinates!" Hum! Let's go! With a wave of his hand, the convoy drove away.
Watching the convoy go away, the white-bearded old man tore his beard, it was Chen Dongqiao who was pretending, he looked at Ye An who was pretending to be an official, and said with a wry smile: "What now?" ”
Ye An shook his head and said dejectedly: "Go back, just return to the Lord truthfully." ”
※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※
At the same time, at the gate of Chaoyang Gate of Jinling City, the people were queuing up to get out of the city.
"How high is the city gate? Thirty-six zhang high. Ride on a white horse, carry a sword, and walk under the city gate......"
The street children clapped their hands and sang nursery rhymes, happy and carefree.
The people who are ready to enter the city are in the left passage, and they are inspected and pay the entry tax, and the people who are going out of the city are in the right passage, and the inspection is much looser than that of those who enter the city.
"What for?"
The veteran who shouted was a native of Jinling, named Cui Tutu, and he hadn't said anything about his daughter-in-law in his early forties, so he didn't defend the city very strictly, but when he saw the person who took the big girl and the little daughter-in-law out of the city, he came up very enthusiastically, but in fact, he was just looking for an opportunity to talk to a few words.
There was a man in front of him, with a beard, about thirty years old, dressed in coarse cloth clothes, carrying two empty bamboo baskets, the important thing is that he also brought a small village girl, his hair combed into a double bun, a hairpin cloth skirt, and beautiful eyebrows, although he seemed to have jaundice, a very beautiful little face was actually ginger, but it did not affect the handsomeness of her facial features at all.
Seeing that the soldier guarding the city was rough and angry, and a pair of eyes were ripping around on his body like a knife, the little village girl timidly grabbed the man's shirt and called softly: "Uncle......" is completely like a country girl who has never seen the world.
The man nodded and said with a smile: "Master Jun, the villain went into the city to sell a few ducks, and he was about to go back." ”
The soldiers who guarded the door looked at them up and down, and then looked at the empty bamboo basket, there were still a few duck feathers in it, and they really couldn't find any reason to keep people, so they beat their guns, waved their hands and said, "Go and go......
The two hurried out.
"Uncle, that military master is so fierce......"
The little village girl screamed timidly, but there was a naughty smile in those big smart eyes, as if she thought it was funny.
The man with the bamboo basket is like any honest countryman who doesn't want to cause trouble, he just buries his head in the front and casually reprimands: "Don't talk nonsense, no matter how naughty you are, next time your uncle won't take you into the city to play." ”
Behind him, Cui dragged and greedily stared at the little girl and writhed, like the wind blowing the alluring little waist of the willow, licking her lips, hehe, smiling lewdly, and said in the local dialect: "This little panxi, looks quite swaggering......"
Out of the city gate, the man who picked the basket sped up his pace, and the little village girl ran and jumped behind to keep up with his pace, the little girl crossed her waist with one hand, and panted loudly: "Yang Xu, you slow down, I'm tired, people can't keep up!" ”
"Call uncle!"
Xia Xun swept around vigilantly, seeing that there was no one left and right, and then glared at her fiercely. This little village girl is naturally Xu Ming'er, Xia Xun didn't ask her to pretend to be a boy, she has no experience, if she pretends to be a man, it will be easy to show her stuffing, so she just dressed her up as a rustic little village girl, and changed her skin color and hairstyle.
Xu Ming'er pursed her lips and said in a long voice: "Uncle...... you can't succeed if you slow down, people can't keep up with you." ”
"Do you want me to carry you?"
"Yes, yes!"
"Think beautifully!"
"Shh
"Hurry up, there is a car in front of you, get in the car, I will send you to the river, and immediately board the boat and go to sea."
"Are you going to that island, are you going to go or not?"
"I'm not going, I still have big things to do in Jinling, and I'll come back."
"Then I won't go, you will go with you."
"How can it be!"
Xia Xun was annoyed: "When I promised to save you, you didn't say that, you promised well, why do you have to change your hexagram!" ”
Xu Ming'er said confidently: "I didn't know at the time that you didn't go with me, the last time you left me at the Xie family, I didn't have any acquaintances, I was like being in prison there." Otherwise, you send me to Beiping to see my sister, when I get there, it's a big deal not to show up again, don't show my name, presumably the news won't be able to spread, and it won't affect our Xu family. ”
"Don't mess around, I arranged for you to go to sea, it took a lot of trouble, now the north is at war, how can there be a peaceful place all the way down, it is too difficult to send you all the way to Beiping, if you take the sea route, now it's winter again, but the northeast wind is blowing, not to mention that the sea route is difficult, you are afraid that you can't bear the hardships all the way."
"Then I'll follow you, if you don't have an accident, I'll be safe. If something happens to you, I'm still safe, what can my eldest brother do to me, hehe, maybe I'll save you when the time comes. ”
"You ......, let me tell you, if you want to follow me, you can only pretend to be a village girl, always pretend to be a village girl, no good clothes to wear, no good things to eat, sleep on a big earthen kang, live in a straw house, and ......"
"Okay, okay, I like it, I've never tried it, it's really fun......"
Xia Xun's intimidation was ineffective, so he had to bury his head and hurry.
Xu Ming'er crossed her waist again and trotted up: "Yang Xu, you go slowly, you can't catch up." Uncle! Uncle ~ Uncle ~~, Uncle ......"
