Chapter 098: Sold to Xuanwang's Mansion
In the drowsiness, you can faintly hear the sound of sobbing, and when Hua Shangxue wakes up, she finds that it is dark in her eyes.
Hua Shangxue clearly remembered that she was still taking a nap in the inn in Zhentianguan before, but now when she woke up, she saw a wooden board close at hand, her hands and feet were tied, her mouth was blocked, and the feeling of shaking was left, as if she was in a car.
If you haven't figured out the situation at this moment, Hua Shangxue is too stupid.
"Mother, you're awake." Ah Li's head floated on the side of the snow on the flower, curled up.
"Ah Li, what's going on?" Hua Shangxue couldn't help asking.
"What else, mother, you were unlucky to be kidnapped again. However, unlike last time, this time it was a human trafficker, and I heard the conversation of the other party, you are a batch of goods, and I don't know where to send it, but, according to the news I heard before, it will not be long before someone will connect. Ah Li is also very helpless, but he also acts as an eyeliner, and there is nothing he can do to save people.
There was no useful news from Ah Li, and Hua Shangxue could only wait quietly for the development of the situation.
About half an hour later, the car stopped.
As the wooden planks above their heads were lifted, the eight little girls, including the flowers and snow, got out of the small compartment together, stood at the back door of a four-way courtyard in front of them, and stood still.
"Blackhead, what's going on with this? With her hands and feet tied, how do you make her walk? A person in charge of the joint, who should be the joint, pointed at Hua Shangxue with a calm face, and asked a middle-aged man.
"Master Qu, because the original number was not enough, this was captured by means."
"Kidnapped? Can you check to make sure there is no problem? Qu Ye raised his eyebrows and asked.
"Qu Ye rest assured. This girl came from outside the gate, followed by a young man. As soon as I came, I sold my camels and lived in cheap rooms. There shouldn't be any trouble, and your boss can take it with confidence. Besides, this incident is not once or twice, which time has it happened? You say wow. ”
"That's right. Forget it, bring it in. Here's the money for this shipment, and you're good to go. ”
"Xie Lu, Xie Quye."
The simple joint was the end, and the rope on Hana's body was untied, and the other seven little girls entered through the back door.
Maybe it came later, and the courage to spend the snow is okay. Unlike the seven girls, they were afraid to advance next to each other, but some of them stood out from the crowd and followed behind.
After Qu Ye accepted the people, he took the people to the courtyard and saw that there were no less than fifty little girls of the same age gathered here, and the lights were lit around them, which looked bright.
Then came a woman in her early forties, with little but decent gold ornaments. When he walked, his eyes swept lightly, and he had a sense of majesty, not angry and self-imposing.
In the crowd, Hua Shangxue took a look at the woman's dress and bearing. I know that this person's background is not simple. At least it's a high-profile grandmother or something.
"It's a blessing for you to be here today. I don't care what your identity was before, now you are all maids bought by my old lady, and you will be from Xuanwangfu in the future. It is to stay in the house and serve the master. Or send to Zhuangzi to work, depending on your ability. But. The old lady said, I am going to pick a few clever and innocent girls among you to serve the little master. As for which one of you has this blessing, it will depend on each of you. ”
After hearing the old woman's words, the people who were still nervous suddenly widened their eyes, some were dazed, some were surprised, some were happy, all kinds of looks, but more of them unconsciously formed a competitive atmosphere.
Xuanwangfu, who doesn't know King Xuan, who doesn't know in Xizhou, is the ruler of the people of Xizhou.
How many people sharpened their heads and wanted to go in to be slaves and slaves were not allowed to enter, who would have thought that they would have such a chance to enter the house.
Originally, there were a few of the fifty people who were in such a situation as Hua Shangxue, and they were girls who were brought in captivity, and after hearing the name of Xuanwangfu, they showed their eyes that were bound to win.
Of course, the snow on the flowers is not one of them.
Xuanwangfu is a relative of the emperor, she understands, but she just understands.
Compared with this so-called palace, Hua Shangxue would rather be sent to Zhuangzi to live, and then think of saving money to redeem himself than enter the deep pool and swamp of the palace.
Now that she has been taken captive here and sold to Xuanwangfu, I wonder if September will cry again when she finds out that she is missing?
Thinking of the crying and crying appearance of him when I first saw September, Hua Shangxue couldn't help but smile.
Alas, I didn't expect her to be unlucky enough, after separating from Jiang Yunxian, she separated from September like this.
Originally, I decided to go to Xijing, but I didn't have to decide on it, I went straight to it.
And the place I went to was still the most prestigious family in Xijing, Xuanwangfu, which was contrary to Hua Shangxue's original intention to avoid these big families, and it was really a creation to make people.
"Stand aside among you who are literate." The old woman spoke again, and immediately someone stood obediently to the side, but Hua Shangxue was not among them, but stood low-key behind the illiterate crowd, making herself look inconspicuous.
"Pen and ink are served, and your names are written on the paper." The old woman opened her mouth again, and immediately a pen, ink, paper, and inkstone were delivered.
I saw that the group of girls lined up, one by one, stepped forward to write their names, but some of them hesitated, as if they wanted to fish in troubled waters.
The old woman's eyes swept and she knew the reason, "Return these few." ”
The old woman said a word, and the three girls who planned to fish in troubled waters were immediately taken away, and one of them was a very good-looking girl.
"Mama, please give me another chance, the slave didn't mean it." The good-looking girl struggled to the old woman, and she knelt down.
The old woman looked at the girl faintly, and reached out to hook her face so that she could look more closely.
"It's watery. It's a pity that your mind is not right, and you blocked the way for yourself. The old woman said lightly.
"Mama, the slave knows that she is wrong. It's only because the ghost is confused for a while that it's like this. Please give Mama another chance. ”
"Take it away." The old woman said lightly.
"Mama, although the slave can't write, the female red is good, don't believe it silently and watch." The girl struggled again and fell to her knees before the old woman, and took out a handkerchief from her bosom, but accidentally dropped another one that did not look like a woman's use.
The old woman, who was still indifferent, suddenly stared at her, bent down to pick up the fallen handkerchief, and sank her face.
"Where did you get this veil from?" The old woman asked in a deep voice.
"Returning to Mama, this is the thing left behind by a benefactor of the slave maid. The slave maid later learned that this was a thing of the Xuanwang Mansion, and the slave and maid just wanted to find a benefactor and return this thing to do such a thing, and asked Mama to give her another chance. ”
The old woman tugged at the handkerchief in her hand, and her expression was cloudy.
"What's your name?"
"Slave Li Qingyue."
"Get up and stand aside."
"Thank you, Mama." Li Qingyue hurriedly kowtowed and thanked her, but she couldn't get the handkerchief back, so she directly let the old woman take it into her arms.
Despite this, this Li Qingyue stayed. It seems that the handkerchief that Li Qingyue dropped is not simple, at least she can stay and get the opportunity to enter King Xuan's Mansion, all thanks to this handkerchief, the old woman has just opened the net.
"Those who can write kung fu also come out." The old woman spoke again, but only three young girls came out, and they looked average.
After the three girls played their fists and kicks, they were all tricks of the rivers and lakes, which were useless, but the old woman just nodded and asked them to stand aside.
"If you have a skill, you can also stand up and tell me."
Unexpectedly, as soon as the old woman said this, most of the remaining people suddenly walked over, and although the remaining people were not much, there were ten left.
After telling the old woman one by one about the specialties of the old woman, and reporting her name, there were already people there to register, as if there were other arrangements.
When there were ten people left, the old woman lifted the faces of the people one by one, looked at them, called them aside, and then walked to the last person, who was snowy.
"It's broken. Forget it, after returning to Xijing, this will be sent to Yao Yuan as an errand, starting with a rough maid. After the old woman gave the order, all the people in this courtyard were arranged.
Whether you want it or not, a trip to Xijing can't be avoided.
After staying in Qu Ye's courtyard for one night, the next morning, all the people were divided into ranks according to the selection of last night, and one by one they got into the carriage.
Looking at the distribution of carriages, the car in which Hua Shangxue sat was the most crowded and the last car, and there were twelve people in one carriage, each sitting cross-legged, one next to another, and it was impossible to stretch his hands and feet.
For the same carriage, the number of people in the first few carriages was much less, especially the carriage near the front of the line, which was only four to six people sitting, and it was not crowded at all.
And those people are mostly literate and have a skill that has been recognized by the old woman, as for the number of people in the middle of the carriage is also normal, controlled within eight people, only the last one, just squeezed twelve people.
The convoy was moving forward mightily, only a few dozen guards were escorting, and they were not under the banner of King Xuan, preparing to go to Xijing by land.
And it was also on this road that Hua Shangxue realized that the old woman was the personal maid of the old princess, who had been serving Mama Li for decades.
After seven days of traveling, Xijing finally arrived.
The state city of Xijing is Xijing City, with mountains and rivers, and it is not a regular square city, but a prosperous big city built with the trend of mountains and rivers and a lot of traffic.
The team led by Mama Li quickly entered the city, and arrived at the back door of King Xuan's Mansion unimpeded, and everyone got out of the car and entered the house directly through the back door, and followed Mama Li into the house in order. (To be continued......)
