Chapter 782: Xi'er

Borrowing a knife, naturally borrowing the knife of King Qing, to kill Liu Dexiu, the prefect of Yangzhou next to King Qing, of course, Jia Shi is very clear about this.

Like Mo Xiaobao and Zhong Silkworm, Jia Shi has now been trusted and reused by Ye Qing, and now, like Ye Qing's right-hand man, he knows more secret things that he couldn't even think about before.

After sending Lu Yanlun back to the house, and then sending Ye Qing back to the house, Jia Shi left alone in a carriage and went to the Yangzhou Chamber of Commerce.

As the son of Jia Wei, the vice president of the Yangzhou Chamber of Commerce, it is naturally much easier for Jia Shi to enter the Yangzhou Chamber of Commerce than others, and he entered the Yangzhou Chamber of Commerce at this time, not to see his father Jia Wei, but to meet a few nominal "businessmen".

When Jia Shi walked out of the Yangzhou Chamber of Commerce again and hurried to the slanting wind and drizzle building, it happened to be the time when King Qing, accompanied by Liu Dexiu, was visiting the 24th Bridge.

As the small canopy boat slowly approached the shore, King Qing and Liu Dexiu began to stroll between the 24 bridges and began to enjoy the beautiful scenery of Yangzhou City.

As if he had entered another world all of a sudden, King Qing, who was walking and touring, gradually felt caught off guard for a while about what was happening in front of him, and even began to doubt involuntarily, Liu Dexiu, who had a more and more stiff smile on his face, was he at the gate of the outer city today, whether he met by chance or deliberately!

From the beginning of his small canopy boat, the boatman was particularly respectful and polite to them, and when the boatman was rocking the boat, his eyes were also with a trace of awe, and he looked at Liu Dexiu's expression from time to time, as if he knew Liu Dexiu, and more like he was afraid of Liu Dexiu.

At first, King Qing thought that this was just the instinctive fear of the officials of Yangzhou East Road, but when he went ashore, he would see from time to time that when some people who looked brightly dressed, either rich or noble, would involuntarily avoid them from a distance when they walked face to face with the two of them, and at this time, under the observation of King Qing, it was still possible to find that these people who passed by them, every look at Liu Dexiu's eyes, was full of fear.

At first, Liu Dexiu didn't find these anomalies, but whenever he walked somewhere, or wanted to drill into the crowd, standing next to the crowd and watching some jugglers and merchants, most of the people would always avoid and make a large open space in front of the two of them.

One person or two people are like this, whether it is King Qing or Liu Dexiu, they can still accept it, and they can also be regarded as ordinary things, but as most people are afraid of them like snakes and scorpions, Liu Dexiu gradually began to feel a feeling, as if he was isolated by the Twenty-Four Bridge.

It seems that there is an invisible pressure, alienating the distance between him and King Qing and others.

If everything that is happening in front of them now still makes King Qing and Liu Dexiu feel only slightly strange, then just when they ignore the feeling that makes them extremely uncomfortable and continue to move forward, the noise and begging for mercy from the front instantly attracted the attention of the people who came to visit the 24th Bridge, as well as King Qing and Liu Dexiu.

Whether it is a small traffic accident in the previous life, or a quarrel between two people on the street and other frictional things, it can always attract people to stop and watch, and even secretly discuss a few words and express their opinions.

In this era, the "boring life", which is more scarce than entertainment items, makes people's yearning for excitement obviously more urgent than that of people in the previous life.

The very old-fashioned plot happened at this time in front of King Qing and the iron-faced Liu Dexiu, as well as the people who were watching on the inside and outside.

Perhaps because of the majesty of Liu Deqiu and King Qing, although they have surrounded the people watching the excitement on the third floor and the outer three floors, people obviously still dare not get too close, or insert the two of them in front of them to watch the excitement.

Therefore, at this time, Liu Dexiu and King Qing were naturally able to have an unobstructed view of what was happening in front of them, even including those vicious beaters, and the scolding words in their mouths were also clear to them.

Surrounded by the crowd in the middle of the open space, are three young people who look like people from big families, and at this moment, lying on the ground with blood flowing on their faces, is a thin old man with extremely strong characteristics of the people of the Northland, a girl in a patched shirt, who is kneeling in front of the old man at this time, crying and shouting: "Don't beat my grandfather again...... ”

So everything in front of him can be completely understood as the hard work of fleeing from the north to Yangzhou, when the lonely grandfather and grandson wanted to come to Yangzhou Twenty-four Bridges to visit, they met these three fierce and vicious big families, and then there was a conflict.

As for what happened to the conflict, it can be understood that these subordinates looked down on the grandparents and grandchildren who fled from the four roads in the north, so everything happened in front of them.

But what is more convincing and people are more willing to believe that this is the truth: these subordinates saw the sad young girl who was crying at this time, so they became evil for a while, molested people on the street, and then were stopped by the grandfather, so the three subordinates beat the grandfather and wanted to forcibly occupy the young girl.

After all, although the young girl is dressed with patches, her face is quite beautiful, even when she kneels on the ground and cries sadly, she can see that in time, this girl will definitely be able to become a beauty.

"How can such a thing happen in Yangzhou City?" King Qing frowned, and said with a hint of dissatisfaction in his faint tone.

Liu Dexiu, who was pale, didn't seem to hear King Qing's words at the moment, because just after King Qing finished speaking, there was a discussion behind them, and although the discussion was small, it was in the noisy crowd of onlookers, so that he and King Qing could hear it very clearly.

"Alas...... I'm afraid this girl and her grandfather are in a catastrophe. A voice said with a hint of pity and helplessness.

"Why? Aren't they just three provocateurs who look like people? There are so many of us, do they dare to rob them in broad daylight, aren't they afraid that we will report to the official? Another voice said indignantly.

"If it were someone from another family, of course they wouldn't dare to rob it in broad daylight, but these three people are different, they are the subordinates of the prefect Liu Dexiu's mansion, how many heads do you think you dare to provoke Lord Liu?" Zhang San explained on the side.

"How can Lord Liu not be reasonable, since it was a subordinate in his house who made a mistake, I believe that Lord Liu will never cover up ......." Li Siyi said solemnly.

"You're new to Yangzhou, right? No wonder you don't know, some time ago, when the weather was hot, at the twenty-four bridges, there were mostly some women wearing thin clothes to visit, and the people of Liu's Mansion teased people many times in broad daylight, but who dared to care? When the government came, the subordinates all looked at the people in the government with their chins, and as soon as the name of Lord Liu was reported, the people in the government ran faster than rabbits. Wang Wu also said on the side.

"In my opinion, today's incident is afraid that it is another tragedy, poor trek thousands of miles, I thought I could beg for food in Yangzhou, but I didn't expect to lose my life in the end. It's useless for the government to come, this girl, today is in the wolf's den, and no one can save her from ...... with her grandfather. Zhao Liu also echoed and said, the helplessness in his tone caused everyone to sigh in unison.

The discussions of the people next to him naturally flew into the ears of Liu Dexiu and King Qing word for word, and with those words, King Qing's eyes gradually began to look at Liu Dexiu, whose face became more and more gloomy.

Whether these people are the subordinates in his mansion or not, he actually knows very well, and they are also three quite capable subordinates, but how could they do such a thing today? Or is it really as the people say, this is not the first time they have done this!

"Old thing, if you know each other, hurry up and get out alone, our lord has taken a fancy to your granddaughter, which is a blessing for your grandfather and grandson!"

"Isn't being a maid in Liu's Mansion better than you singing and asking for food? Don't worry, I will allow her to go back to visit you every month, but if you don't want her to go to Liu's Mansion as a maid ....... ”

"If you don't know each other, I will throw you into the river to feed Wang Ba, and we will still take your granddaughter away, and you won't inquire, who dares to ...... in Yangzhou."

"Aren't you afraid of the king's law?" The crying girl, wiping her tears, angrily said angrily at the three subordinates, and then looked at the crowd with weak eyes, and began to ask everyone for help.

"Wang Fa?" The man was stunned for a moment, and then laughed with the other two companions presumptuously: "Wang Fa, in Yangzhou, our master is Wang Fa!" Who dares to disobey! ”

The words of the next person almost spit out a mouthful of old blood from Liu Dexiu, who was watching on the sidelines, his face was as black as the bottom of a pot at the moment, his hands were clenched into fists tightly, and he wanted to kick the three subordinates immediately, but looking at the people around him, he obviously did not dare to reveal his identity at the moment.

King Qing on the side looked coldly at Liu Dexiu, who was speechless, his face was pale, and his eyes were about to breathe fire with anger, and then slowly walked forward, picked up the broken huqin next to him, and calmly walked to the girl under the reminder of the onlookers and the angry eyes of the three subordinates.

Seeing that the girl raised her bright and innocent, innocent and frightened eyes, and looked at him timidly, King Qing slowly squatted down, handed the huqin in his hand to the girl, and said with a soft smile: "It's all broken, how about I buy you a new one?" ”

The three subordinates next to him, looking at King Qing, who was extraordinary and not angry, were stunned for a while, and they didn't dare to step forward to stop them, not to mention that at this time, behind King Qing, there were two guards who looked like they were skilled.

The girl wanted to reach out and take the broken huqin, but she was afraid of King Qing, who was smiling at her, but still made her feel a little scared.

So the girl involuntarily stretched out her hand and hesitated in the air for a long time, but she still didn't dare to take the huqin that King Qing froze in her half-empty hand.

Ye Gucheng, Ye Wuji, Liu Qingyan and Ye Qing were driven out of the study by Yan Qingcheng and Bai Chun, who were still calculating this year's accounts, so the two big and one small four were bored in the courtyard, and after the maid brought paper and ink, Ye Qing's eyes finally shifted from Liu Qingyan's bulging belly to the white paper.

The dragon flying and phoenix dancing with a few strokes of the brush, and the eight pieces of paper with handwriting were formed into eight balls by Ye Qing in a short period of time.

Liu Qingyan, Ye Gucheng, and Ye Wujian looked at Ye Qing's actions inexplicably, and then asked, "What are you going to do here?" ”

"This time, let's guess whether it's a boy or a girl, how about it?" After finishing speaking, without waiting for Liu Qingyan, who was rolling his eyes, to speak, he said to the two sons who were squatting on the ground with him: "Do you two want your aunt to help you give birth to a younger brother or a younger sister?" ”

"Brother, sister." The two little ones raised their hands together and said.

"Can you have a good time?" Ye Qing was angry, looking at the two of them, and said as a little guy with a big ghost.

Liu Qingyan on the side was instantly amused by the two little guys, and also joined: "I hope it's a boy." After finishing speaking, he began to dream that he could also add another male to the Ye family like Bai Chun and Yan Chengcheng.

Ye Qing was speechless again: "Actually, I still want a girl." ”

"Then I want my sister because I can protect her." Ye Wujian immediately echoed his father and said.

"I want my brother because he is not enough for me to bully." Ye Gucheng stroked his younger brother Ye Wujian and said with his head drooping speechlessly for an instant.

"Then in that case, let's draw lots, we are four of us now, and we want my younger brother, if we catch a paper ball with a woman written on it, then we will think of a name for our sister, and if we catch a man with a lot of men, we will take the lead in thinking of a name for my younger brother." Ye Qing scratched his head, and suddenly felt that his democratic casting seemed to be useless.

Although Liu Qingyan was bored, it was better than being disgusted by Yan Qingcheng and Bai Chun in the study, so he naturally agreed to Ye Qing's proposal with the two little guys.

So the next four people grabbed lots, Ye Wujian and Liu Qingyan, who wanted their younger brothers, actually caught the paper ball with a woman written on it, and before Ye Gucheng could open the paper ball in his hand, he was snatched by his father and handed it to the maid who had been pursing his lips and smiling next to him, signaling to destroy it quickly.

Liu Qingyan, who saw that he was greasy, snorted dissatisfiedly, how could he not know, in fact, on the eight paper balls, they were actually written in female characters, and only those two silly boys stupidly believed in his father.

In terms of choosing a name, Liu Qingyan is even more concerned, Ye Qingxue, who Ye Qing had thought about a long time ago, naturally does not eat Liu Qingyan's most ideal name, and the name Ye Xiaofeng was also vetoed by her at the first time, so Ye Qing's proposal is that the four of them decide whether to use Ye Fuxue or Ye Xiaofeng, because Liu Qingyan puffed out his cheeks and thought for a long time, but he didn't come up with an ideal name.

There are still eight paper balls, but this time under the supervision of Liu Qingyan, Ye Qing honestly wrote down four Ye Fuxue and four Ye Xiaofeng to let the four people draw lots.

The rules have obviously also changed under Liu Qingyan's protests, and the two-to-two draw naturally has to be re-drawn, and only after reaching three to one can the number be made.

So when Wen Wan appeared in the courtyard of the Ye Mansion, she saw two large, two small and four rather serious faces, shaking around in front of a small porcelain basin, and then everyone would reach out and take out a paper ball inside.

"Ye Fuxue ......."

"Ye Xiaofeng."

"Ye Xiaofeng."

"Ye Blowing Snow."

"Oh, I have to draw lots again." Ye Wujian was the first to lose patience and wail.

Ye Qing listened to her youngest son's wail, and scratched her head again, she had already grabbed it seven times, and each time it was a draw, and those eight paper balls obviously had a mark that Liu Qingyan could remember, otherwise, why did she always wait for the three of them to catch it before picking and choosing inside.

So Wen Wan's arrival can be regarded as breaking the deadlock between the four people, and with Wen Wan's joining, the five people draw lots to become the rule of three to two.

Liu Qingyan's expression suddenly fell, and she glanced at Wen Wan, who looked a little dignified, but Wen Wan, who had just arrived, knew that they were playing a game of drawing lots, but she didn't know what they were going to do, so in the face of Liu Qingyan's signal, she seemed at a loss.

After the four of them were caught, facing Liu Qingyan's repeated eyes, Wen Wan, who was hesitant and confused, was heartbroken at the moment, and casually pinched a paper ball from the small porcelain basin.

"You open it first." Ye Qing immediately handed the small porcelain basin and the remaining three paper balls to the maid next to him to prevent Liu Qingyan from cheating.

Wen Wan looked at Ye Qing hesitantly, and then at Liu Qingyan, so she had to be the first to open the paper ball, and the three words Ye Fuxue appeared in front of several people.

"The Little Lonely City opens." Liu Qingyan said nervously to the eldest prince of the Ye family.

"Ye Fuxue, I think my sister's name is quite nice." Ye Gucheng said.

"Maybe it's my brother." Liu Qingyan looked at the name and obviously couldn't escape the choice, so he began to pin his hope on his stomach again.

At this time, Wen Wan also completely understood the reason why the four of them had drawn lots before, shook her head with a dumb smile, and looked at Ye Wujian After opening the paper ball, it was also Ye Fuxue.

As Ye Qing and Liu Qingyan opened the paper ball, although both of them were Ye Xiaofeng, but for the sake of the three-to-two number they had just agreed, Ye Fu "up and down" reached an agreement, if Liu Qingyan gave birth to a daughter, then he would be named Ye Fuxue.

Even with this name, without the consent of the two ladies of the Ye Mansion, the three of Ye Qing's father and son still began to cheer as if they had won a battle, causing Yan Qingcheng and Bai Chun in the upstairs study to open the window and reprimand them quietly.

Liu Qingyan left the courtyard with two small things, leaving her expression calm and serious, and Ye Qing began to slowly walk towards the back garden of Ye Mansion.

Wen Wan, who had just stepped past the Moon Gate in front of her and was one position behind Ye Qing, said behind Ye Qing: "I got the news when I came over just now, and the matter has been done. ”

"But it's only half of the loan, and I don't know if people agree or not." Ye Qing smiled and sighed.

"Xi'er's accent has a strong accent of Northland Four Roads, which shouldn't arouse King Qing's suspicion." Wen Wan frowned and thought for a moment and said, "Although Yang Bailao is also from the north, if he is also brought into the Qingwang Mansion, I am afraid that he will be exposed from him." ”

"Yang Bailao and Yang Xi'er, a pitiful pair of grandchildren. With King Qing's benevolent heart, it will inevitably be brought back to King Qing's mansion, and Xi'er will inevitably be looked at differently by King Qing, although it will not be as green as a sparrow turning into a phoenix, but at least, whether it is what Yang Bailao or Xi'er said these days, King Qing will be convinced. As for the other things, you don't have to worry about it, just let the two of them stay in King Qing's mansion for now. Ye Qing sighed again, feeling more and more that he was no longer the Ye Qing he used to be, and even when he first came to this world, the mantra of being a and special person had gradually disappeared from his mouth.

(ps: Actually, no matter what the comment is, it can give me some inspiration, such as the name Ye Xiaofeng I saw.) It's a pity that the comment area is too dead. )
