Chapter 004: The County Lord
The melodious birdsong enters through the window, and it is still a rare good weather in spring.
Xiao Yu got up and changed his clothes and combed his bun at will. She walked to the window, looked at the lush foliage of sunlight and birds, and fetched water to wash up and eat breakfast.
After reading the book for a long time, she cleaned up, and then went out, ready to have a meal and then go to find a suitable house to buy, and then live in Yue Di for a long time.
In fact, according to Xiao Yu's original idea, she would prefer to find a place to live in the countryside. First, the people in the countryside are simple and simple, and the neighbors are close to each other, and she also misses the happy life of her family in the village when she was a child. Second, there are not so many eyes and ears of all parties in the countryside. Now she is young and weak, and she can't show off.
Settle down first, and then the rest will be better to figure it out.
It's just that the old residence has been dug up by treasure hunters, Xiao Yu doesn't want to go back, so as not to touch the scene and worry about it, but if you want to find another place, you don't know where to go. In contrast, buying a small house in the city is much simpler.
Xiao Yu was young and young, and he was worried when he walked on the street. Will those who sell houses cheat her because she is young?
In this way, while thinking about countermeasures, he walked forward, and before he knew it, Xiao Yu arrived at the bustling Yongan Street in the county town. Since Koshiji did not divide the city, the street near the Gunwangfu was not as quiet as the neighboring streets of Kyoto Wangjo, but was full of shops and bustling.
There are mountains and rivers in the city of Yong'an County, and the rivers are vertical and horizontal. Different from the fang market in the capital of Daqi, the streets in the city are mostly lined with shops in front of the door and back houses, with open storefronts and colorful banners hanging high above fluttering in the wind. Many small shops also have goods in front of them, and there is a wide variety of goods.
There are also hawkers with stalls on the streets, and they buy and sell a wide variety of goods. There are also hawkers along the street, or pushing carts, or carrying the top of the plate. The whole street is full of traffic and people, and it looks much more lively than in Kyoto.
Xiao Yu was absentmindedly looking at the surrounding shops, and suddenly saw a young man about ten years old a few steps away, who was smiling and said to the girl next to him: "Sister, you wait here, I'll buy you peach blossom cake." ”
With that, the boy walked to the stall across the street.
This situation made Xiao Yu suddenly think of the past, and suddenly it was like being struck by lightning, and the fragments of memories passed quickly, she chased after her uncontrollably, and shouted in panic: "Come back, I won't eat that peach blossom cake!" ”
Xiao Yu grabbed the young man's clothes.
The young man turned his head in shock, not knowing what was going on, he looked at Xiao Yu blankly, then came back to his senses, and said with a strange face: "My peach blossom cake is not for you to eat." ”
The girl also walked over quickly and asked, "What happened?" ”
Xiao Yu woke up suddenly, saw the strange gazes cast around him, let go of his hand in embarrassment, and said with a forced smile: "Cough, I'm sorry, I recognized the wrong person." You have to be careful on the streets. ”
People on the street have started pointing.
Seeing the disappointment and sadness on Xiao Yu's face, the girl couldn't help but look at it a few more times before nodding and walking with the young man to the stall selling peach blossom cakes.
Xiao Yu stood in the middle of the street, looking at the sister and brother who went together, and remorse and self-blame hit again. If Brother Jun hadn't gone to buy her peach blossom cake, she wouldn't have been arrested, and her father wouldn't have had an accident because she went to find Brother Jun, so maybe she would still be happily with her family today.
But there is no if in the world, this has become Xiao Yu's demon.
Xiao Yu didn't feel sad for long, because she was standing in the middle of the long street, blocking the way of others, so she was soon forced to recover from the past and walk to the side of the street.
It's just that my mood has become depressed, and I'm not even interested in going to see the house.
Upstairs, Hua Yue suddenly heard that sentence, and couldn't help but feel a slight shock in her heart, glanced at Ling Yi and the others opposite, and quietly instructed the attendant next to her: "I heard someone making noise below, you go and see what's going on." ”
The attendant answered the call and walked to the window to look out, and after a moment came back and said, "There is a boy who has recognized the wrong person, and is still on the side of the street, looking lost and depressed." ”
Ling Yi couldn't help but smile when he heard this: "Zichen's ears are so smart, I haven't heard anything." ”
Hua Yue smiled faintly: "If you can't hear this, wouldn't it be even more boring." Come, drink. ”
Ling Yi sighed in his heart and drank the wine in his cup. At this time, his personal guard ran up from downstairs and said, "General, the county lord's car is almost here." ”
Hearing this, Hua Yue said to Ling Yi: "I think that the people from the Jingnan County Royal Mansion have also arrived at the Drunken Immortal Residence at this time, so I will go back to the house first." ”
Ling Yi knew his temperament, nodded, and said, "Okay, I'll go over there too." ”
Xiao Yu was thinking about whether to return to the inn at this point, when a group of city guards came in front of him, urging pedestrians, carriages and horses to avoid on both sides, as if some big man was going to pass by.
There are few people in the world who are not curious, and the people on the street suddenly become more lively, standing on the side of the road and looking around, and guessing from ear to ear.
In a short time, the one who got the news triumphantly told the people.
It turned out that Li Ying, the concubine of the Jingnan County Palace, who went to Beijing a year ago, returned from Kyoto, and was also named the county lord of Congyipin by the current saint, and was given the name Shuhui.
In fact, the Jingnan County Mansion is still the royal bloodline, and as the daughter of the County Palace, it is natural to be crowned a county lord, but the subtlety of this Shuhui County Lord is that it is said that Emperor Qi had no intention of canonizing her, and after the national teacher Ziyu Zhenren gave her a fate, the sage made an order.
Xiao Yu was already in a bad mood, and when he heard the words of Jingnan County Wangfu, he felt even more blocked.
So when the luxurious car drove slowly, Xiao Yu even had a thought in his heart: Do you want to get some poison/medicine?
However, Xiao Yu just thought about it, and reason told her that she couldn't be angry for no reason.
Seeing the honor guard driving, the people next to him began to discuss.
According to the regulations of this dynasty, the county lord's honor guard can have a pair of red staffs, a pair of Qingdao flags, a pair of spotted swords, a pair of my staffs, a pair of bones, a pair of ringing joints, a green umbrella, a red round umbrella, two green round fans, two red round fans, a gold and silver chair, a gold and silver pedal, a gold and silver basin, a gold and silver water pot, two whisks, a Zhai sedan chair, two obstacles, and one sitting barrier. There are six people in front of the court, and three maids in the court.
The royal guard of honor came under the escort of the guards of the county king's palace, but fortunately, kneeling was only used on formal occasions such as worshipping the sky, worshipping gods, worshipping ancestors, worshipping kings, worshipping fathers, and students worshipping teachers.
Li Ying looked only eleven or twelve years old, dressed up and sitting on top of the eight-treasure Yingluo canopy car pulled by three horses, the wall of the car was pasted with gold wire, inlaid with various colored gems, very gorgeous, so that many people on the side of the road admired it. She has delicate eyebrows, she is a natural beauty embryo, and at this time with a decent and proud smile on her face, she is a little dignified by this honor guard.
Xiao Yu somehow felt that this scene was a little familiar, and thought maliciously, why didn't a girl run out to cry that she was the real county lord?
Just thinking about it, an old woman next to her suddenly whispered: "No matter how much you pretend, you can't learn the momentum of the Qingning Lord." ”
Hey?
Xiao Yu was a little surprised and turned his head to look. This old woman has actually seen Princess Qingning? It sounds like he despises Li Ying.
However, soon after the king of Jingnan took power, he increased the taxes of Yuedi, and now the king of Jingnan County has changed his children back to the surname Li.
This can be used. Xiao Yu lowered his eyes and thought thoughtfully.
