Chapter 353: Cui Mansion's Birthday Banquet (II)

Xifu is Cui Kuan's mansion, at this time all the female dependents are concentrated here, we can see in the Dunhuang murals, the Tang Dynasty can be men and women at the same table to eat, but generally men sit on one side, and women sit on the other side.

In order to facilitate the women to put on makeup or gather and chat when they are resting and waiting, an area will be set aside for female guests, of course, female dependents do not have to stay in the west courtyard, Guo Song also saw many female dependents in the east courtyard.

Xue Tao followed her mother Han to sit in a group of officials and wives chatting, seeing that their various parents were chatting with great interest, Xue Tao was really bored, so she whispered to her mother, got up and walked towards a flower bed, and Xiao Yuniang followed her closely.

A few clusters of chrysanthemums in the flower bed are in full bloom, a few yellow chrysanthemums are particularly delicate, Xue Tao stepped forward and smelled the faint fragrance of flowers, at this time, a woman who looked like a housekeeper walked forward with a few healthy women and said, "But Miss Xue?" ”

"I am!"

Xue Tao glanced at them, "You have something to do with me?" ”

"Mrs. Cui invites the girl to the back hall to talk!"

How could Xue Tao go with them, she shook her head, "I'm a little unwell, I'll visit Mrs. Cui another day, you can go back and report it!" ”

Several servant women glanced at each other, and the two healthy women stood beside Xue Tao on the left and right, grabbed her arm, and the housekeeper said coldly: "Please girl, don't embarrass us!" ”

As soon as she finished speaking, the two healthy women who held Xue Tao screamed as if they had been stung by poisonous bees, and jumped away from both sides, and the little fish girl pulled Xue Tao and said, "Sister, let's go!" ”

The two walked quickly to the outer courtyard, and the housekeeper's wife glared at the two healthy women and said, "What's the matter with you?" ”

"My arm felt like it had been pricked with a needle, and it was hot and painful."

"Me too, the pain is unbearable."

The housekeeper's wife was shocked, she suddenly realized that the thin woman beside Xue Tao was probably a female guard, and she hurriedly rushed back to report.

As soon as Xue Tao and Xiao Niangyu walked to the door of the back house, Han chased them out, "Where are you two going?" ”

"Madam, someone wants to be bad for the girl."

Xiao Yu Niang told Han what happened just now, Han was not stupid, she also realized that something was wrong, and said in a panic: "What can I do?" ”

"Madame can continue to stay here, let's go to the East Mansion to find Guo Gongzi."

"No, I'll go with you."

Han didn't dare to stay here anymore, she hurriedly followed her daughter to the east courtyard, they had just walked to the sandwich corridor, only to hear someone behind them shouting: "Miss Xue, please stay!" ”

This voice was clearly the housekeeper just now, I saw more than a dozen people chasing after me, and the three of them sped up, at this moment, I saw Guo Song appear at the other end of the corridor, Xue Tao was overjoyed, and hurriedly shouted: "Guo Lang!" ”

Guo Song saw that they looked flustered, so he walked over quickly, "What's wrong?" ”

"Someone is chasing us from behind."

Guo Song's face sank, and when he walked in front of Xue Tao, he saw the housekeeper's wife running with more than a dozen healthy women, and two women were still holding sacks.

Guo Song stopped them and said coldly, "What do you want to do?" ”

The housekeeper's mother-in-law wanted to take advantage of the fact that there was no one on the wall and arrest Xue Tao, but she didn't expect that there would be one more young man, and she said angrily in her heart: "This is Cui Dashuai's matter, I advise you not to ask!" ”

As soon as she finished speaking, Guo Song suddenly punched the housekeeper's mother-in-law on the door, and the housekeeper's mother-in-law flew backwards a foot away, and was knocked unconscious on the spot, and the healthy women were so frightened that they lifted her up and ran.

Guo Song immediately said to Xiao Yuniang: "You rush back first and ask Xiao'e to pack up your things, and we will go back to Chang'an immediately!" ”

The little fish girl saluted, jumped on the wall, and flew away.

Guo Song said to Han: "Uncle, it's not safe here, let's leave first." ”

The Han family had already lost their masters, so they nodded hurriedly, and the three of them came to the East Courtyard, and met Xue Xun, who was not at ease and rushed to inquire about the situation, Guo Song told Xue Xun what had just happened, Xue Xun was stunned for a moment, he really didn't expect Cui Ning to dare to be so unscrupulous.

"What are you going to do?"

Guo Song said: "I want to take Tao'er out of Chengdu immediately, this is Cui Ning's territory, it is really unsafe." ”

"So what do we do?" Han asked worriedly.

Guo Song thought for a while and said: "His Royal Highness Zhaowang and I have an old relationship, Uncle Shi and his aunt will go to Zhaowang's mansion to avoid it first, as long as Cui Ning can't catch us, he won't embarrass Uncle Shi." ”

Han Shi was scared and said, "Master, let's go back to Chang'an too!" ”

Xue Xun shook his head, "Guo Gongzi is right, this is Cui Ning's territory, he is the soil emperor here, we can't escape at all, let's go and call the palace to hide, Cui Ning doesn't dare to mess around with us, but if it's on Jiannan Road, it's hard to say." ”

Xue Xun said to Guo Song again: "Virtuous nephew, I will hand over Tao'er to you, you must protect her safety." ”

"Uncle Shi, don't worry!"

He took out his official rank fish talisman again and handed it to Xue Xun, "This is my fish talisman that can be used as proof, he is in the guest hall now, Uncle Shi will take this to him, he will protect Uncle Shi's safety." ”

"I see, how do you get out?"

Guo Song squatted down and smiled at Xue Tao: "You help me up, I will carry you away!" ”

Xue Tao was a little embarrassed in front of his parents, and Han was anxious, "Tao'er, you follow Guo Gongzi quickly." ”

Xue Tao lay on Guo Song's back, Guo Song carried her on his back, gently climbed the wall, and jumped out.

Han grabbed her husband's hand, "Will something happen to Tao'er?" ”

"Don't worry! Our future son-in-law is amazing, last time he carried him out of Yang'an County, and he was able to protect his daughter's safety. ”

The husband and wife went back to the east courtyard and went to find the king.......

Guo Song will never underestimate Cui Ning's shamelessness, he is the emperor of the soil in Xichuan, and it is the privilege of the emperor of the soil to do whatever he wants with any woman, this kind of person's possession of beautiful women is not just to satisfy a certain desire, but a manifestation of the power in his hands, he dares to forcibly occupy the wives and daughters of his subordinates at his mother's birthday banquet, which has already exposed his bottomless side.

As for his official title, it is not worth mentioning at all in front of Cui Ning, and he will not take it in his eyes.

Guo Song jumped off the high wall with Xue Tao on his back and came to the street, he pulled Xue Tao all the way and ran to his war horse, and two entourages greeted him, "Envoy, what's the matter?" ”

"Someone wants to be unfavorable to Miss Xue, I will take her to leave Chengdu first, you and Kang Bao and Xiao Yuniang will leave behind to guard Xue Changshi and Mrs., they will come out soon, and we will see you in Chang'an then!"

"Obey!"

Guo Song hugged Xue Tao on the war horse, he turned over on the horse himself, Xue Tao was worried: "Guo Lang, will something happen to my parents?" ”

Guo Song smiled: "Don't worry! With the protection of the king, they will be fine, and besides, the Yang Zilin incident just happened, he didn't dare to touch your parents, offended the anger of the public, and he only dared to arrest us secretly. ”

"So where are we going now?"

"Let's get out of town first!"

Guo Song galloped away as soon as he rode his horse, and after only a moment, he passed by his residence, where Xiao Yuniang and Kang Bao were already waiting at the door.

Xiao Yuniang handed a small burden to Xue Tao and asked, "Childe, what should we do then?" ”

"You and Kang Bao will go to the front of Cui's Mansion now, join Yang Jun and them, and you will protect the safety of Master Xue and Mrs. Xue."

"I see!"

Xue Tao shouted again: "Little Fish Niang, bring Xiao'e with you." ”

"Don't worry, girl!"

"Let's go back to Chang'an first."

Guo Song ran to the north city gate with a vertical horse, this is very close to the north city gate, he took Xue Tao straight to the city gate, the soldiers at the city gate came to him fiercely, there was no intention to stop, so he shouted: "Come and stop!" ”

Guo Song pulled out his black sword, swung his sword and split the two spears, and rushed out directly.

Several soldiers looked at each other, wondering who was rushing out just now?

........

Cui Mansion, Jie Du made Cui Ning slam a cup on the ground, pointed at a few kneeling guards and housekeepers and scolded, "Your eyes are all on the **, how can you not?" Will they grow wings and fly away? ”

The head of the guard said tremblingly: "We have searched thoroughly, and there is indeed no one in the mansion, and they really did not see them go out on the other side of the gate." ”

"Then go outside the house and see if there are any traces of them going out over the wall?"

"Obey!"

Several of the leaders of the guards ran off in a row.

Cui Kuan next to him persuaded his brother: "Big brother, it's just a woman, why take her so seriously?" And Guo Song is not easy to mess with, so we'd better not make enemies with him. ”

"What do you know?"

Cui Ning said with a dissatisfied face: "This woman is different from others, Xu Yuanchang said that she has the appearance of an imperial mother, I want to marry her and let her give birth to a few sons for me." ”

Xu Yuanchang is a famous scholar in Shu, especially good at looking, Cui Kuan knows his brother's ambition, it seems that his brother is bound to Xue Tao, he bowed his head for a long time and was silent.

"As for that Guo Song, don't look at him as a county prince, it's really nothing in my eyes, if you want to fight with me for a woman, I think he's tired of it."

"What about Xue Xun and his wife?"

Cui Ning walked a few steps with his hands in his hand, and said to Cui Kuan: "You tell Xue Xun that it was a little misunderstanding just now, I just admired his daughter's talent and learning, and I want to ask her to write a birthday poem for my mother, there is no other meaning, let him go back to Jianzhou to serve with peace of mind, and this matter does not need to alarm His Royal Highness Zhaowang." ”

Cui Kuan knows his brother too well, the better he does on the surface, the stricter the search for Xue Tao will be, and he will inevitably catch Xue Tao at all costs.
