Chapter 174: Groveling
Xiao Liu raised his hand and sat down, leaning his legs on the chair: "Tell me, why did the Spring Building go out of business this time, and even the girls ran out?" Is the deed of sale an ornament? ”
Steward Wu frowned: "The county lord doesn't know, the Tang family adheres to the principle of convenience with others, if the girls are unwilling, they can sign a living deed, and they don't sell their bodies."
As long as they can redeem themselves, they will let them go, so gradually the people will be gone. ”
Xiaoliu really wanted to throw a shoe in his face, she did the same, and threw it and let him come back: "Pick it up, it's really useless, people say you can put it if you want to leave, stupid!" ”
Steward Wu, who was secretly clenching his fists, was touched by Wang Fatzi, and obediently picked up his shoes: "What the county lord said is that the small ones are not flexible, and this is why things like this are happening, and the small ones are really to blame." ”
Xiaoliu put on his shoes and nodded: "Well, if you know your mistakes, you can change them, you can do it well in the future, okay, get me five hundred taels of silver." ”
"Five hundred taels?"
Steward Wu was surprised.
"What? This is out of business, can't you even take out five hundred taels? Did it all for nothing before? ”
Xiao Liu snorted coldly.
"This ...... What is the use of the county's lord for so much silver? ”
"It's your business, just bring it, I'm still waiting to use it!"
Steward Wu was so angry by Xiao Liu's words that he almost wanted to do it, and Wang Fatzi secretly stopped him and gave him a look.
Steward Wu was unwilling to give his hand: "Wait a minute, the county lord, let's go get the small one!" ”
When he got the silver ticket of five hundred taels, Xiao Liu put it in his purse, patted it, got up and left with the prefect's hat.
Steward Wu hurriedly stepped forward: "Where are you going, county lord?" Why don't you rest here? The small ones can be arranged to live immediately and prepare food. ”
"No, I have a place to stay."
Xiaoliu stretched out his hand.
Steward Wu was puzzled.
"Jade Pendant!"
Xiao Liu said speechlessly, and wanted to swallow her things privately.
Steward Wu was puzzled.
"Jade Pendant!"
Xiao Liu said speechlessly, and wanted to swallow her things privately.
"Oh, I forgot about the little one."
Steward Wu hurriedly took out the green jade plate from his arms and handed it back.
Xiao Liu took it and looked at it carefully, and made sure that it was his jade plate before putting it in his arms.
Strode downstairs and turned to leave.
"The county lord walks slowly!"
The three of them stood in the doorway and looked down.
"Just let her go?"
Steward Wu whispered.
"She's a girl, she can't be bad, if she encounters danger here, it will be a big thing."
Wang Fatzi reversed the groveling appearance, with his hands behind his back, quite imposing.
Xiaoliu turned a corner, wandered around the street, and bought a lot of gadgets, "Little brothers haven't seen each other for a long time, bring some gadgets back, so as not to know me." ”
Yu Guang glanced at the guards who followed behind him, this prefect's brain was not very good, she dared to beat him openly, and sent such a little Luo Luo who would not hide, forget it, her county lord can support the boat in his belly, let him go.
Back at the rouge shop, Xiao Liu fell on the bed, "There are a lot of articles in this rejuvenation building, so I won't be startling them, let's go back and find the second father to deal with it." ”
sighed: "I don't know how the family is doing, have the two younger brothers grown up......"
Capital.
The invisible smoke of gunpowder filled the entire Southern Jin Dynasty, many officials were pulled off their horses, and when there was no news of the Lotus Sect, many ministers were impeached.
For this reason, many factions have been disrupted and reshuffled.
Ninghou Mansion.
"Master Hou, another official has been imprisoned, we really suffered a lot this time."
The butler stepped forward with a teacup.
"It's ridiculous to hold your breath, a little frustration, just want to stop me! It's just small fish and shrimp, and they don't even break an arm. ”
Ning Hou took it and took a sip lightly.
"But if you arrest a lot of people, you won't attract anything, right?"
"It's not something you should worry about, young master, what's the news?"
What you want to recruit depends on your ability.
The housekeeper hurriedly bowed his head: "The people who followed the young master suffered heavy losses, only Chen Heng came back, saying that the young master drove him back, and in addition, the assassination failed." ”
Ning Hou paused and put down the cup: "What is expected, if it is so easy to get it, Ben Hou will be suspicious."
Send someone to pick up the young master, and go brightly. ”
Raise your eyes: "Can you remember?" ”
"Yes, my subordinates will arrange it."
"Hmm."
…… There are many people who have also been hit hard this time, such as the eldest prince, the second prince, and the queen...... Wait a minute.
The Zhenguo Mansion is okay, there is no huge family, and there are leafy relatives, but it is a good thing that a few traitors are found in the barracks.
The old man lay in the recliner and sighed for a long time: "When will my little six come back, my heart hurts when I think about it." ”
The old lady peeled an orange and stuffed it directly into his mouth: "What else, I don't know who it is, I have to agree to King Han's proposal, saying that this is good for Xiaoliu, so how long has it been since I saw my granddaughter?" ”
The old man took out the orange in his mouth and separated it before putting it into his mouth: "You don't know, how deep the water in this capital is, how much things have happened after she left, what if something happens in Beijing?" ”
"Bah, my granddaughter is the lord of great fortune, if you dare to curse her, I will not finish with you."
The old lady glared at her fiercely.
"To put it bluntly, it's not that you men are useless, even Xiaoliu can't protect her well, you want to send her to the deep mountains and old forests with the Han King to suffer hardships, and I don't know if she is hungry or thin."
The old man sat up and retorted: "How can this be useless for us, this is also another way to protect it, you feel good in my heart, and I can't bear it, isn't it afraid that she will stay and suffer!" ”
"Snort, whoever believes it, useless is useless, less excuses!"
The old lady turned her head disdainfully.
"Hey, old woman, what do you mean by this, do I seem to be a person who will be afraid? I crawled out of the pile of dead people on the battlefield. ”
"Who knows!"
…… Water City.
The people who followed Xiaoliu hurriedly ran back to report to the prefect.
"Are you sure you can see clearly, she went to the Tang family's Qinglou and Rouge Shop? I also saw that the shopkeeper treated her with courtesy? ”
The prefect stood up violently.
"Yes, my subordinates saw it with their own eyes, and Steward Wu personally sent it out of the door, and his mouth seemed to say...... By the way, the county lord walks slowly, that's what he said! ”
The guard was shocked by the adult's reaction, and hurriedly said.
"That's right, it is rumored that the county lord is arrogant and domineering, very naughty, and the eldest lady of the Zhenguo Mansion, no wonder he dares to be so ......"
Hit the officer.
"Go, hurry up and prepare the ceremony, the official is going to meet the county lord!"
The prefect excitedly ordered, this identity is good, if you tie up, why worry about the uneven road to Qingyun.
"My lord, I'm not in a hurry to visit, it's getting late now, and I'm afraid it's ...... to disturb the county lord's rest."
A meal is settled.
The staff then said: "What's more, the county lord has never seen any good things, and I am afraid that ordinary things will not be able to enter the eyes of the law, so this gift has to be carefully considered." ”
Hearing this, the prefect nodded: "What Mr. said is right, this matter will be handed over to you, you must do it well, and the future official fortune of this official will be in your hands." ”
"Don't worry, sir."
…… When Xiaoliu was confused, he heard a sound, thinking it was the shopkeeper Huiniang, so he didn't care.
But in a few moments, she heard the door open.
"Hui Niang ......"
She sat up, "Is there anything wrong with you?" ”
The hand rubbing his eyes rested on his face.
"Uncle Huang?"
Put down your hand and take a look left and right, that's how he came in? "Surprised?"
Nangong Han, dressed in brocade clothes, walked over and sat on the edge of her bed.
Xiao Liu sat down cross-legged, wearing underwear, and did not avoid or block it with the quilt, so he sat in the quilt: "Why are you here?" ”
Since childhood, I have been mixed in the boys' pile, and I don't know much about the difference between men and women.
"I miss Xiaoliu, Xiaoliu ran away alone, and I chased after it for a long time!"
Nangong Han is shameless and coquettish.
Xiao Liu was as if he had been struck by lightning, and his hand tried on his forehead: "I'm not sick, why did you talk nonsense?" Isn't it the task you gave it? Of course I'm going to go alone. ”
"Then you can wait for this king to come along, and I won't refuse."
"Then what's the matter, it's not like you said you want to act alone, and you are not allowed to form a team."
"This king is not among them, and there is no need to be bound by this rule."
Xiaoliu's mouth twitched, you are the prince, you are awesome, you are the boss, you have the final say, I will not fight with you.
"It's not early, I'm going to sleep, Uncle Huang go out."
Wave the quilt and prepare to lie down.
found that Uncle Huang's buttocks didn't move: "I told you that I was going to sleep, you should leave." ”
In other words,! Nangong Han didn't move, "This king rushed over at night, and now the inn and restaurant are closed, where do you let this king go?" ”
"You are the prince, just knock on the door, or the official government and the yamen will be fine, and I am afraid that there will be no place to sleep."
"Disturbing others like this, this king can't do it."
Can you bother me then? Am I not human?
Can you bother me then? Am I not human? "I don't care, you go away."
Xiaoliu pushed him.
"The king liked this house so much that he decided to sleep here."
Hold her wrist and keep her in and out.
"No, where do you sleep and where do I sleep?"
She didn't do it.
"If it doesn't work, it has to be done, just let this king decide!"
Hold her down with one hand and lie down directly.
Xiaoliu was pressed on the front and couldn't break free, "I'm afraid of you, I'll let you, I'll go and ask Huiniang to rearrange a room for me." ”
"Everyone is resting, how troublesome it is, this king will go to sleep."
After speaking, he closed his eyes and lay down side by side with her, not covering the quilt, but pressing her shoulder with one hand to prevent him from moving.
Xiaoliu swings his fist, you/uncle, will also do, pull the quilt and cover it, close your eyes and sleep.
When she closed her eyes, he opened them and smiled, which was a good feeling.
After dawn, Hui Niang saw a man walk out of the eldest lady's house, not to mention how surprised, "Eldest lady......"
"Is there anything to eat?"
Xiaoliu raised his eyes and stretched.
"Oh, there is ......"
Hui Niang retreated as she walked, and her eyes never left Nangong Han.
Knowing what she was thinking, Nangong Han wouldn't explain, so he pulled Xiaoliu and got into the carriage directly.
"Eh, I haven't eaten yet! My black yarn hat ......"
Xiaoliu waved his hand and was ruthlessly pulled into the car.
"What can I eat here, it's all arranged in the carriage, as for yours...... The black gauze hat has already been returned to the prefect, aren't you homesick, let's go quickly. ”
Nangong Han pushed her in, and he followed in.
Hui Niang shouted: "Miss, Miss, Miss......"
Worried that she would be kidnapped, he chased her out with a broomstick.
Xiaoliu lifted the curtain: "Don't worry, I'm back in the capital, he ...... Not a bad guy. ”
noticed Uncle Huang's eyes, but did not say his identity.
"Oh, that young lady has a good trip."
The carriage drove out of the city with a click, and Xiao Liu was eating inside: "Why are you in such a hurry, we don't lack this time." ”
"It's not lacking, it's just that I'm afraid of boring people entangled."
Nangong Han wiped the corners of her mouth after eating, and watched her enjoy it.
"Boring people? Who? ”
She gulped down and didn't hurt her appetite at all.
"Knowing that the county lord is coming, I want to ask to meet someone who gives a small gift,"
In Shuicheng, not long after they left, a sedan chair stopped in front of the rouge shop.
The prefect walked out, "The prefect of Shuicheng asked to see the county lord, and asked the shopkeeper to pass it on his behalf." ”
