No.99 Mysterious Imperial History
Xiao Zhengxi's eyes sank, and he unusually suppressed the anger on his face, and asked without any ups and downs in his voice: "Who is the girl?" Does the girl know the consequences of excessive lynching? ”
Qing Shu was tired of talking nonsense with the Xiao family, and told everyone to keep an eye on Xiao Yuan, but he stepped aside, first helped the owner lady of the rice shop to get up, and then helped the owner lady of the grocery store to get up, and promised: "Don't worry, you two have a wrong, there is a debtor, I will definitely get justice for you." Don't cry yet, you think about it, how much silver is the shop and the goods in the shop, how much is the loss, make a list and send it to the ancient mansion tomorrow, and I will get it back together for the compensation of the three shops. ”
Hearing this, the two women seemed to have grasped the only straw, and excitedly asked Qing Shu if it was true, whether they could really get the compensation money, and so on.
Qing Shu nodded, "What happened today, the county magistrate and the county assistant saw it with their own eyes, and no one can deny it." Besides, I have already sent someone to Jinyang City to ask the prefect to make decisions for us. When the prefect arrives tomorrow, no matter how arrogant the Xiao family is, he will not dare not pay compensation. "As for Xiao Yuan, she will definitely send him to prison. A man who can poison his own sister, if he continues to be free outside, it will be too dangerous.
The two ladies of the proprietor said thank you and cried at the same time.
Qing Shu persuaded them a few more words, telling them to quickly follow the man home, saying that it was too dangerous to continue to stay here. After the owners of the two shops left with their respective ladies and guys, Qing Shu rubbed his eyebrows and told Ning Si to hurry up and see if the other shops were implicated.
Ning Si replied directly: "Miss, don't worry, the other shops on the left and right heard the movement and moved away in time, and poured enough water on the walls and walls of the house so that they would not be affected." Besides, if such a big thing happens, the yamen will not dare to withdraw people, and they will send people to keep an eye on it until it is all extinguished. ”
Qing Shu looked at the sky, the sun was about to set, and then looked at the shop that was still burning, "Count the number of people, bring the wounded and captured Xiao Mansion people, etc., and go home." "The shop is burning, and there is no need to guard it. She had to bring the scattered people together and make plans for the next step.
"Miss, how does Miss Xiao arrange?" Ning Si listened to Xiao Yuan's cry, and then remembered that there was such a person, please ask Qing Shu whether to leave or take away.
Xiao Yuan was only in a coma before, and her coma was mainly due to being knocked unconscious. Later, he was thrown into the shop, but because he was lying on the ground and was rescued in time, he did not inhale too much smoke and dust, so there was nothing serious. At this moment she was woken up by the personal maid, and thought that she was almost dead, so she cried loudly.
Qing Shu glanced at Xiao Yuan, who was hugging each other and crying bitterly, "Take it away." ”
Ning Si quickly made arrangements, and the people in the ancient mansion wanted to leave with the wounded and the captured Xiao Mansion people, but the old steward of the Xiao Mansion led people to block the way, and they were determined to leave the Xiao Mansion people behind.
Where is Qingshu willing, seeing that he is about to fight again, only to hear the sound of horses' hooves on the street gradually rising, accompanied by the sound of whips, the girl's crisp voice with anger came from behind Xiao Zhengxi and the others, "Which sister Shu is not long-eyed, suffer death!" ”
Qing Shu was stunned when he heard this, this voice ...... How could it be so familiar? But she immediately shook her head again, thinking that it was impossible.
When the guards of the Xiao Mansion turned around, they saw a girl in a bright yellow brocade robe galloping on a white horse, and the long whip in the girl's hand waved in the air like a spirit snake, and pierced the air with a crackling sound. Behind the girl, a little girl dressed as a maid rode a red horse with a whip in her hand and waved it. Then there was a young man in a white brocade robe, marching unhurriedly with five or six horseback guards.
Seeing the girl rushing over, one of the guards shouted, "Who is coming?" Dare to surprise the salt transport envoy and not get off the horse and ask for the guilt? ”
The girl pulled the reins, slowing the horse down and smiling happily, "Haha...... This girl is not even afraid of the official of the first grade, let alone the small salt transport envoy from the fourth grade! Acquaintances get out of the way, and if you dare to say more, this girl will definitely want you to taste the whip. As she spoke, the maiden had approached, and the white horse neighed, and raised her front hooves and stood up, very majestic.
Someone changed color at the time, "This is a war horse." ”
Bai Xianfu, who was hiding behind Xiao Zhixian, sat on the ground and muttered to himself in a stupid mouth, "It's over, it's all over, it's not enough to have an aunt who plays with a spear, and there is a young lady riding a war horse, it's gone, it's over......"
There is no need to look at people, and by this time Qingshu has already determined who is coming. Although he was puzzled in his heart, he also knew that it was not the time to ask the reason, so he lightly admonished the people of the Xiao Mansion and said, "Get out of the way, if you don't want to make trouble, don't mess with this young lady." In the capital, don't say that you are an official from the fourth grade, that is, the third and second grades, you have to hide when you see her. Do you think that your Xiao family's Xi Gongzi and Miss Rong are very beautiful in the capital, and you can see her, and she is not just like a mouse seeing a cat. Her words were exaggerated, but they couldn't be further from the truth.
Others only think that Qingshu is deceiving people, and they don't believe it. Seeing this, Qing Shu sneered and said no more.
At this time, a small group of people arrived at the back. The young man led by him has thick eyebrows and big eyes, red lips and white teeth, but he is not feminine, and he looks very heroic. It's a beautiful man. He seemed to be carelessly taking all the qiē around him into his eyes, and then his right hand reached into the wide left sleeve and dug in, not knowing what he was looking for.
The girl began to get impatient, "Gu Ruixing, can you hurry up, why is it more grinding than a woman?" If she hadn't promised others not to take the initiative before she came out, she would have thrown the whip over earlier, so she wouldn't have waited like this, and she was in a hurry.
The beautiful man with red lips and white teeth is none other than Gu Ruixing, the son of General Gu. Although it was said that she was more abrasive than a woman, Gu Ruixing was neither angry nor annoyed, and ignored her. He continued to dig and dig with a calm face. There are so many people and so many pairs of eyes staring, he can't take out anything, but he still insists on digging and digging.
Anger rose in the girl's smart eyes, and she raised the whip in her hand, "Believe it or not, I whipped you?" ”
was entertaining himself and enjoying the mysterious atmosphere specially created, but when he heard the girl come to such a threatening word, Gu Ruixing sighed helplessly, "Grandma, the little one, please don't keep intimidating the little one with a whip?" The little one is the right-hand man of the Holy Lord's own order, in front of outsiders, can't you save some face for the little one? ”
As soon as these words came out, someone gasped. Such a young prince is the right-hand man of the Holy Lord's own order? How did Lord Goshi appear in Huizhou? Who is this young lady? Dare to threaten to whip the right-hand man of Lord Yushi.
Listening to Gu Ruixing's words, the girl snorted dissatisfiedly and turned her head. However, she immediately turned her face back, her gaze crossed the top of everyone's heads, and fell on the face of the person behind her, waving her hand with a bright smile and greeting, "Sister Shu, my sister brought Lord Yushi's personal accompaniment, rest assured, rest assured, none of the people who bullied my sister can escape." ”
The old steward of the Xiao Mansion forcibly suppressed the uneasiness in his heart, looked at the girl with a smile on his face and asked, "I don't know which adult's daughter is Miss?" ”
The girl ignored him and glared back at Gu Ruixing, "Are you finished?" How long will it take? ”
Gu Ruixing said slowly: "Grandma, it's okay, don't rush." Then, with a bang, he finally pulled out a small seal from his wide sleeve. He took the seal in front of his eyes and looked at it, shook his head, and tucked it back into his sleeve, "I took it wrong." ”
The crowd who were waiting intently to know what he was going to do listened, some were grinding their teeth, some were eager to punch him. It's really, so annoying.
Gu Ruixing touched his chin with a thoughtful expression. Soon, he slapped his forehead abruptly, "Oops, how did you forget this." Then he stretched out his hand to the man who looked back, "Bring it." After speaking, he didn't forget to mumble in a voice that everyone could hear, "I know that Childe's memory is not good, and you don't know how to remind Childe one by one, what kind of heart is An?" ”
A young man dressed as a guard on horseback untied the navy blue burden that was leaning on his body with a black line, and then took out a rectangular brocade box from the bag, held it in both hands and handed it to him with a respectful face.
Gu Ruixing began to glare, "What's the matter, can't you let Ben Gongzi open the brocade box by himself?" ”
Another young man dressed as a guard next to him stepped forward with a black line on his face, opened the brocade box in his companion's hand, and held the bright yellow brocade scroll with both hands and handed it forward.
Gu Ruixing stopped glaring, took the brocade scroll with both hands with a stern face, untied the ribbon on the brocade scroll, and then unfolded the brocade scroll.
When everyone in the Xiao Mansion saw the dragon pattern on the back of the unfolded brocade scroll, their faces suddenly turned white with fright. Cave to Cave ...... In the blink of an eye, a large area fell to his knees on the ground. Even Bai Xianfu, who was sitting on the ground in a daze and stupid, knelt down and kowtowed in an orderly manner.
Only Qing Shu and the people in the ancient mansion behind Qing Shu were standing. The people of Xiao Mansion who were captured by the ancient mansion also knelt, the reason was that the master knelt, and they subconsciously knelt with him.
Compared with the Xiao Mansion people in front, Qing Shu and Gu Ruixing had a certain distance, so Qing Shu and they couldn't see the dragon pattern on the back of the brocade scroll in Gu Ruixing's hand. Seeing a large area of Xiao Mansion kneeling, the people on the side of the ancient mansion looked at each other, and when they saw Qing Shu standing still, they also stood still.
Qing Shu looked at Gu Ruixing inexplicably, his eyes full of question marks.
Xiao Juan touched the messy maid's bun in confusion and asked in a low voice, "Miss, what's wrong with them?" Naturally, they meant someone who knelt on the ground.
Qing Shu was not in the situation at all, she didn't understand it very much, she didn't understand it very much, and replied to Xiaojuan in a low voice, "I don't know." ”
Gu Ruixing swept over everyone, and when he saw that the barrier in front of him had been cleared, he looked Gu Qingshu up and down, sighed, and cleared his throat, "Cough, cough...... Do any of you know where Lord Zhou is? When the question was raised, he slowly rolled the brocade back, tied the ribbon, put it in the brocade box, let the guards wrap it, and then took it and carried it on his back.
There was silence underneath.
After a while, Xiao Zhengjun stood up with an iron face, "Bold, how can the Holy Decree be child's play." ”
Gu Ruixing said with a stern face: "Who took the holy decree as a child's play?" Although it is reported, Lord Goshi will definitely investigate it to the end. ”
Xiao Zhengjun is poor in words. They didn't say that he was holding a holy decree in his hand, but he thought it was a holy decree, so he led the whole house to bow down.
Gu Ruixing stretched his left hand into his right sleeve with a stern face, and immediately took out a palm-sized seal, and rushed the engraved pattern of the seal towards everyone, "In the lower Gu Ruixing, the Holy Lord will be the leader of the guards of Lord Zhou of the Imperial History." Lord Yushi has an order, Xiao Yuan, the daughter of the Xiao family, bullies the weak and oppresses people with power, and dares to rob other people's shops and injure innocent people. ”
Xiao Zhengjun's defeated face proved the weight of what was in Gu Ruixing's hands. It is the official seal that represents the identity of the imperial history.
Gu Ruixing said again: "Lord Yushi has an order, Xiao Yuan, the son of the Xiao family, is in the evil township, and the sister can't rob other people's shops, set fire to other people's shops, despise the king's law, and is extremely rampant, and the crime should be the same." After the arson, Xiao Yuan did not repent, and threw his sister unconscious into the burning shop to frame others, which was extremely insidious and vicious, and it was really intolerable, so he took it immediately. ”
Xiao Zhengjun stubbornly said: "Adults can't just listen to one side, who can prove that it was my son who set the fire, and not someone deliberately framed it?" ”
At this time, there was a soft sound diagonally towards the door of a snack shop, and two men in black brocade clothes with knives at their waists came out with a man wearing the clothes of Xiao Mansion guards.
Gu Ruixing motioned to Xiao Zhengjun to look over there, and said: "It's a coincidence, today Lord Yushi arrived in Dexian County, and saw that Xiao Zhixian left the county seat in a hurry, Lord Yushi was very curious, so he followed all the way. Unexpectedly, Xiao Zhixian was in such a hurry, and it turned out that such a serious case had occurred in the small Kangxi Town. How arrogant Xiao Yuan was, how Xiao Zhixian taught and wanted to stop Xiao Yuan, and then how Xiao Yuan made people set fire, Lord Yushi and the guards saw it clearly, and quickly sent people to arrest several people who were responsible for arson. ”
Xiao Zhengjun froze on the ground with a bloodless face. It's not good to bump into someone's hand, but it's good to hit Yushi's hand without dying. He saw the official seal of the imperial history, but he couldn't see the imperial history himself, so he had nowhere to use it, there was nowhere to spend the silver, and many things were out of their way.
He hates! Early yesterday morning, the son and daughter said that they were going to the temple to burn incense, and the wife also said good things from the side, so he let the children go out. Unexpectedly, when he didn't see them return home, he asked casually, but saw that his wife's eyes were dodging and she seemed to have something to hide. Only then did he realize that something was wrong, and it took a moment of anger to ask where his children really were. He immediately recruited men to chase him out, but caught up with his subordinates to report to him, so he was delayed for nearly two hours. In this way, he reluctantly chased out in front of the gate, but because it was too dark, he took a fork in the road, wasting time, and it was too late. He repented!
Gu Ruixing shook his head, "Lord Xiao, you don't say that your son is evil, but you still want to help your son get rid of his guilt, and you want to rob the captured mansion and go back to the mansion, is your law as Da'an not a good arrangement?" ”
Hearing this, Xiao Zhengjun immediately cheered up, "Lord Gu is strict with this, and he has no such intention in the future." ”
Gu Ruixing clenched his fist in the direction of Qing Shu, "Miss Gu is frightened, please feel free to hand over the Xiao Mansion and others to the Yamen for custody." The incident came out of Kangxi Town, and the detention was naturally the responsibility of the county assistant of Kangxi Town. Speaking of this, he faced Xiao Zhixian, "Lord Zhixian, the matter is important, please let Lord Zhixian stay and supervise the county assistant." ”
Xiao Zhixian responded expressionlessly.
Qing Shu, who had been silent, asked, "Why should I believe you?" How can I believe that you are not complicit in Xiao Fu? Why do I believe that you will not protect each other? ”
Gu Ruixing is poor in words. shouted at the open shop, "Lord Goshi, do you hear that?" Miss Gu asks you why you should believe you. ”
Qing Shu looked at Gu Ruixing's line of sight in surprise, his brows furrowed slightly. I thought to myself: Could it be that the Lord Yushi in Gu Ruixing's mouth is really in Kangxi Town? Really witnessed Xiao Yuan's evil deeds? If so, when did they come? How did you hide in that shop without alarming others? This Lord Yushi, how do you feel a little scary. Or is it that all the imperial histories of the Da'an Dynasty are like this, and they all like to play mysterious!
Soon, a brocade-clothed guard came out of the shop, walked to Gu Ruixing's horse, and whispered something to Gu Ruixing.
Gu Ruixing hummed, and after the guard turned around and returned to the shop, he helplessly beckoned to the girl next to him, "Come here." ”
The girl's eyes widened, "What are you doing?" Although the tone was not good, it urged the horse to come closer to him.
He stretched out his arm and gently pulled the girl's hairband, and smiled at Qing Shu, "This girl will be bet on you." You don't believe in Lord Yushi, don't you still believe in this girl? ”
The girl was slightly annoyed, slapped his hand away, touched her hairband, and knew that the knot had not been torn off, so she was relieved. She smiled at Qing Shu, "Sister Shu, don't worry, he is really the head of the guard of Lord Yushi." Also, there is also Lord Yushi, who is an iron-faced and selfless big ice cube and a stuffy gourd, and he will not be protected by officials and officials. ”
Whether the officials will protect each other has nothing to do with whether it is a big ice cube or not, whether it is a stuffy gourd. Besides, what do you mean by this girl betting on you? Qing Shu was puzzled for a while, but he also signaled Gu Yuanhe to transfer the person to the people from the Yamen.
Because there was no obstacle, the handover between the two parties was quickly completed, and when Xiao Yuan was about to be escorted away, Qing Shu suddenly rushed forward, ignoring the side eyes of others, and slapped Xiao Yuan four or five times in one breath. If it weren't for the subordinates of the Xiao Mansion who came up to pull away Xiao Yuan, who was beaten, Qing Shu would still want to slap him a few times, although the palm was very painful.
Gu Ruixing twitched the corners of his mouth, and shouted at the guards and officials who followed him to hurry up and escort the prisoners away.
When all the people in Xiao Mansion were taken away, Qing Shu didn't have time to think about anything, and the girl who had been waiting on the side for a long time rushed over, hugged Qing Shu's neck, and shouted excitedly Sister and Sister.
Qing Shu pushed her several times with a black line, but didn't push away, so she gave up, resisted the urge to roll her eyes and said: "Okay, okay, Yu Yan, let go quickly, if you don't let go, sister, I may be cut off by you at any time." ”
The person who was laughing just now suddenly cried again, "Sister Shu is so bad, she didn't go back to Beijing to see Yu Yan, and the letter was written so little, it was necrotic." ”
Seeing her crying, Qing Shu grinned, "Why don't you stay in the capital and teach the gentlemen in the capital a lesson, what are you doing in this small place?" ”
Bu Yuyan was so angry that she couldn't help but clench her fists and beat Qingshu, "Okay, this girl has come all the way to see you, you are not moved at all, and you still have to make fun of people, so I will ignore you anymore." As he spoke, he pushed Qing Shu away angrily, turned his back angrily, and wiped his tears angrily.
Qing Shu took a step forward, stretched out his hand and patted Bu Yuyan's head from behind, "Good girl, good girl, how can I be unhappy when such a beautiful girl comes to see me?" gone, Xiaoyang is still waiting at home! He, but every day Sister Bu is long and Sister Bu is short and you are talking to you, don't you want to see him soon? With that, he took a step and walked away.
Bu Yuyan was pulled by Qingshu's arm, and raised her chin proudly, the tears on her face still existed, "Hmph, with you saying, this girl has already met Brother Xiaoyang." ”
Qing Shu was stunned, "Have you been to the mansion?" When did you go? ”
Bu Yuyan immediately threw her previous annoyance out of the clouds, and restored her instinctive nature, "I've been there." I heard Xiaoyang say that someone bullied you, I want to come out to help you, the annoying Gu butler won't let me, Xiaoyang also hates it, and won't let me come over to help you. Hmph, when I go back, I must pinch his nose to breathe......"
The two little girls who reunited after a long absence, just walked back home chattering all the way.
As soon as the door opened, Qingyang was the first to rush out, shouting that his sister pounced.
Qingshu struggled to hug the little locomotive that rushed out, and said with a smile: "My sister is back, and the bad guys have run away." ”
Qingyang just wanted to cheer, but when he looked up, he saw Qing Shu's catly face, and immediately asked nervously and panickedly, "Sister, are you injured?" He stepped back, looked up and down, and saw that Qingshu's dress was dirty, and there were suspicious dark red in several places, and his frightened face turned white, "Sister, where are you injured?" There is blood. ”
Qing Shu smiled and scratched his nose, "How can you not get hurt in a fight!" Don't worry, my sister is all wounded by flesh and skin, it's not a big deal. As for this blood, it belongs to someone else. ”
Qingyang breathed a sigh of relief, and just wanted to say something, but was squeezed away by Bu Yuyan. He pouted, "Sister step, what are you doing?" ”
Bu Yuyan grimaced, "Hmph, who told you to ignore me." ”
Qing Shu smiled, "Okay, don't make trouble, let's hurry in." Then he explained to Gu Qiang, "Arrange everyone's accommodation, send someone to invite Dr. Zhou over, by the way, the five injured guests will be arranged in one room, ask where the family lives and send someone to inform them, so as not to let the family worry." ”
Gu Qiang saw that Qing Shu came back with good arms and legs, and finally let go of the heart he was carrying, so he urged Qing Shu to hurry back and freshen up, and he said that the next qiē would be arranged, so that Qing Shu should not worry.
Xiaojuan is the only girl in the house who follows Qingshu to work hard, Su's mother attaches great importance to it, and while she takes Xiaoyu to serve Qingshu to freshen up, she tells Ding Jiamei and Lily of the Valley to serve Xiaojuan to freshen up.
Where has Xiaojuan been served, when she was bathing, Ding Jiamei wanted to help her rub her back, she almost jumped out of the bath tub, and she didn't let Ding Jiamei help.
Lily of the valley took a bottle of ointment in her hand and stood aside to urge Xiaojuan, "Sister Xiaojuan, wash it quickly, it will be cold when the water is in the water." Also, I have an ointment prescribed by Dr. Zhou here, which not only heals quickly when applied to the wound, but also leaves no obvious scars. ”
When bathing, Qingshu has never been accustomed to keeping people around, and on weekdays, Xiaojuan and Xiaoyu will withdraw when they are ready for hot water. Today, Su's mother personally stared at it, but she insisted on not going out, saying that she would personally confirm where there were injuries on Qingshu's body. Qingshu was depressed, and promised to wash it and go out to check on Su's mother, which finally drove Su's mother out of the room. Qingshu was worried that Su's mother would not be able to help but break in, so she took a hasty shower, quickly got out of the bathtub, and grabbed a clean undergarment on the screen to wrap herself. I felt that the water droplets on my body were almost absorbed by the undergarment, so I took off this undergarment and put it on from the inside out.
There are a few bruises on her arms and calves, which are not strict, and she will gradually get better in a few days. Mother Su would make such a fuss and have to follow to confirm, it was nothing more than a bruise on her face and a crack in her palm that scared Mother Su.
The bruise on his face was the result of being slapped by the other party in the confusion. There will be a crack in the palm of her hand, which is the result of her desperate efforts with people holding a gun. She knows that she is still a rookie, she doesn't have enough strength, and her marksmanship is barely a little interesting, and she can fool the layman. If it weren't for the people in the house to protect her, her gun would have been snatched away by the tall men on the other side.
Before today, she practiced marksmanship in order to exercise her body and strengthen her physique. After today, she practiced marksmanship, no longer just to exercise her body and enhance her physique, she had to learn the skills of self-preservation. She moved her sore arm, walked around the screen, climbed onto the kang and lay down. She was really tired today, she didn't want to get up when she lay down, and she didn't bother to pay attention to her wet hair wrapped in a cloth.
Her eyelids were heavy, and she struggled to hold on for a moment, but finally she didn't hold them and fell asleep.
Mother Su and Xiaoyu came in, and when they just chatted about how Qingshu didn't listen to persuasion, Xiaoyu shushed and whispered that Miss was asleep.
Mother Su was distressed, climbed onto the kang lightly, relieved Qing Shu's freshly worn coat, and carefully opened Qing Shu's palm, and smeared the ointment she had taken from Dr. Zhou on Qing Shu's palm.
Xiaoyu brought several dry cloth towels, opened the wet hair wrapped in Qingshu, and slowly wiped Qingshu's hair little by little.
Qing Shu didn't know anything, he slept very deeply, and he didn't wake up until midnight. She was woken up by hunger, and she actually wanted to sleep, but she was so hungry. The oil lamp was on in the room, and she was confused to sit up, when a delicate hand reached out to help her.
She didn't look at who it was, "Is there anything to eat?" ”
