[I originally wanted three more than six thousand words, but after thinking about it, it's better to have two more six thousand words, it's always good to be longer. 】

Wuxi City.

Even though Lord Luo, the Xuanfu envoy, has worked hard since his arrival to rectify internal and military affairs, this city, which once flourished due to mineral trading, still inevitably fell into depression.

However, it was said that in the early morning of this day, the sky was already bright, but there were still 20% of the shops on Fuwang Street that had not opened for business for a long time - the Li Family Tea House, which specializes in the tea business, was also among them.

However, unlike other shops that have no intention of operating due to declining profits, the reason why Lijia Tea House has to close its doors is to entertain a distinguished guest.

Distinguished guests from the mountains!

Knock knock knock~

At about two o'clock in the morning [half past seven in the morning], Zhao Haogu, the chief shopkeeper of the tea house, personally knocked on the door of the backyard hall with a tray of wine and food.

After a while, I heard the latch of the door inside, and then a sleepy-eyed man poked his head out from the inside, and saw that it was Zhao Haogu who came to deliver the meal, so he let go of his body to the side, yawned and said: "Send it in, my young head also happens to have something to say to you." ”

When Zhao Haogu heard this, he responded obediently, and then the shopkeeper went into the room with the food as if he were a shopkeeper.

After entering the inner room, because he saw the young man sitting at the head of the bed, wiping a short knife, Zhao Haogu's heart was furious, and his spine couldn't help but soften a little.

"Less-headed people."

He carefully put the food on the table, and bowed and smiled: "Did you sleep peacefully yesterday?" If there's anything inappropriate, just say it. ”

"You're embarrassed to ask me if I'm sleeping soundly?"

The young man snorted, put the short knife in his hand and made a trick, squinted at Zhao Haogu and asked: "I am in the stockade, and I still have Han girls to sleep with me every night, how did I get the territory of your Han people, but I didn't even get a girl who warmed my feet?!" ”

Zhao Haogu's smile froze, and he saw that the short knife was coldly pointing at him, and he was so frightened that he almost rushed out of his urine.

Hurriedly knelt on the ground with a puff, kowtowed like pounding garlic and justified: "The young man is angry" The young man is angry! We also did not arrange for women to sleep for safety reasons......"

"!"

At this time, the barbarian who had just opened the door also followed up in the inner room, and when he heard Zhao Haogu's distinction, he scolded unceremoniously: "Right now, in Wuxi City, who else dares to be rude to our young heads?" Did your family defeat those hundreds of remnants, or did those turtles crawl for days before they crawled to the nest outside the city?! ”

As he spoke, he stepped forward and kicked Zhao Haogu to the ground, and scolded: "Why don't you hurry up and get a girl, let my young head dissipate his anger!" Otherwise, when the tens of thousands of warriors of our Tong Ximan come to Wuxi City for recreation, they may not be able to take care of the past! ”

The total population of Tong Ximan is only twenty or thirty thousand, and the number of young and strong men is at most six or seven thousand, so how can there be tens of thousands of warriors?

However, how dare Zhao Haogu question anything?

He got up so hard that he didn't even dare to pick up the hat that had fallen on the ground, so he escaped with both hands and feet.

"Did you see him like that? This is the Han people? The Han people who have oppressed our Tong Ximan for decades?! Hahaha......"

Hearing the sound of unbridled laughter behind him, Zhao Haogu's face was ashamed and annoyed, but he didn't dare to ignore the barbarian's request after all.

So he had to go out of the tea house through the back door and hurried to the owner's mansion in the west of the city.

waited in the front hall to meet the owner Li Changshun.

Zhao Haogu first portrayed the shameless face of the barbarian, and then couldn't help but indignantly propose: "The owner, the officers and soldiers sent by the imperial court are about to enter the city, and if there are more than a thousand people, the barbarians may not be able to enter Wuxi City - we might as well tie up these two barbarians and send them to the Xuanfu Envoy Yamen, and save ourselves from suffering this wretch!" ”

"Confused!"

When Li Changshun heard this, he glared at him and scolded: "The more than 3,000 officers and soldiers before failed to defend this Wuxi City, not to mention that there are a group of old soldiers who came back this time?" Even if you want to kill yourself, don't pull me on your back! ”

Zhao Haogu actually knows that his owner has always been timid and afraid of things.

Especially recently, rumors have spread that the Wuxi barbarians are dissatisfied with the imperial court sending troops to quell the rebellion, and are ready to raise troops to go down the mountain again - at this moment, Li Changshun naturally did not dare to take risks.

Therefore, what Fang just said, first, is to vent the resentment in his heart; Second, it is also to pave the way for shirking responsibility.

At this time, hearing that Li Changshun was really not allowed, he immediately lowered his face and said with a wry smile: "But if it's not like this, wouldn't it be to follow his wishes?" ”

Speaking of this, Zhao Haogu stopped talking and lowered his voice to remind: "Don't you dare to use those prostitutes who can't be trusted, otherwise if there is a rumor that we are secretly colluding with the barbarians......"

Now the people in the city hate the barbarians to the core, if they knew that the Li family was secretly colluding with the barbarians, I am afraid that they would not have to wait for the barbarians to come in, and the Li family would be removed from Wuxi City.

Li Changshun naturally knows this truth, and he doesn't say that he is a prostitute outside, even if he is a servant woman at home, he will never dare to let him get involved in it.

However, after removing the servants, wouldn't it be only possible to use ......

Li Changshun's face flashed with some embarrassment and reluctance, but after all, he gritted his teeth and ordered: "Come on, go and invite the third aunt!" ”

Zhao Haogu listened to it next to him, and he couldn't help but sigh secretly in his heart.

The third aunt was originally a Qing pavilion in Piaoxiang Building, and because of her wide and talented reputation, she was married into the family by Li Changshun five years ago, and gave birth to a concubine the next year.

Since she has a son on a leash, she is naturally not afraid that the third aunt will sell the Li family.

It's just a pity for this third aunt, who has always been pure and indisputable, but she wants to suffer such humiliation for no reason.

Not to mention the state of mind of the master and the two people in the living room, but said that the next person heard the news and went to the back house to spread the news, and after a while, the third aunt arrived in a hurry.

At the beginning, Zhao Haogu only met her from afar when the third aunt married into the Li family, and after five years, she looked at it again, and her cold demeanor had not changed, but her figure was a little more mature as a woman.

Even the slightly heavy winter clothes are difficult to hide her graceful curves, and the appearance of the mountains and the deep valleys can be vaguely seen when walking.

Perhaps because she was born as a woman in a Qinglou, this third aunt was the most cautious about men and women, so she learned that Shopkeeper Zhao was present, and she specially covered a veil.

"Ugh."

Seeing that slender figure bowed down, Li Changshun sighed bitterly and instructed Zhao Haogu: "Shopkeeper Zhao, you can tell Qin Niang about that matter." ”

As he spoke, he turned sideways, unable to bear to look at the third aunt again.

Zhao Haogu got the order, so he sneaked Tong Xi's young head into the city, settled in the Li family tea shop, and disliked the fact that there was no female attendant, and told it as it was.

Although he didn't break Li Changshun's thoughts, this Qin Niang is already a smart person, so he doesn't understand that his master wants to use himself to curry favor with the barbarians?

The next heart is like falling into an ice cave.

Directly embedded his nails deep in the palm of the white jade, he finally suppressed the resentment and impulse in his heart, and said coldly and detachedly: "If it is to save the lives of the Li family, the slave will not dare to disobey the master." ”

"Qin Niang!"

Hearing her so obedient, Li Changshun turned around and called emotionally, and reluctantly opened his mouth, as if he wanted to change his mind, but in the end he spit out a sentence: "Don't call our Li family trouble." ”

After listening to such shameless advice, Qin Niang's heart was even more discouraged.

She clenched her silver teeth, suddenly bowed again, and said resolutely: "Although the slave is from a humble background, he also knows the four words of courtesy, righteousness, honesty and shame. ”

Saying that, she didn't hesitate anymore, got up and urged Zhao Haogu to lead the way.

Li Changshun heard that she was going to commit suicide afterwards to make a full reputation, and chased a few steps out excitedly, but he remembered the tragic situation of the barbarian slaughter of the city a few months ago, so those two legs weighed as much as a thousand gold, and it was no longer possible to move.

"Qin Niang, Qin Niang...... Woowoo woo ......"

Seeing Zhao Haogu and Qinniang disappear around the corner, he suddenly sat down on the ground, and lost his voice and pain without an image.

"Great joy, great joy, great joy, great joy!"

At this moment, a certain blind servant suddenly broke in, and was about to say something with joy, when he suddenly found that his master was sitting on the ground wiping his tears, and suddenly froze on the spot.

"You goddamn bitch!"

Li Changshun hurriedly got up from the ground, wiped the tears on his face with his sleeve, and scolded angrily: "Who let you break in indiscriminately? Do you understand the rules?! ”

"Sir."

The servant hurriedly leaned over and whispered: "It's really a great happy event, and the little one forgot to measure it for a while......

Li Changshun snorted when he heard this: "Happy event? What happy events can my Li family have now! ”

"What a great event!"

The servant hurriedly said: "The officials and soldiers of the imperial court to quell the rebellion entered the city in advance, and I heard that they also won two battles and killed a lot of barbarians!" ”

When he heard that this was such a thing, Li Changshun was even more angry, and said angrily: "You actually believe such rumors? When the Wuxi barbarians rebelled, the government also said that they had won many battles, but what was the result? Even the Xuanfu envoy was killed by the barbarians! ”

"This time it's different, sir!"

The servant stretched out his hand and pointed outside and said, "The official army not only rescued many women who were taken captive, but also captured the big leader of Tong Ximan, Yahamer!" ”

Li Changshun showed some surprise at this time, but he still couldn't believe it: "What? Yahamer, the big leader of Tong Ximan, was ...... Captured alive by the officers and soldiers?! You...... You can't hear it wrong, do you?! ”

"How is that possible! There were quite a few people on the street who recognized Nayahamer! The servant said in a colorful voice: "I heard that the official army also robbed dozens of young and beautiful barbarian girls, and now they are all disheveled ......."

He was talking about the barbarian girl with his eyebrows fluttering here, but Li Changshun still had the heart to continue listening, and immediately shouted: "Quick, hurry up and chase the third aunt and the shopkeeper Zhao back!" ”()
