Fifty-six, the cold retreat
Shi Qi turned from anger to a smiling face: "I'm just a villager, we're just curious, how do I know that the official family has so many rules, although the girl in front of you is not old, but she is already the mother of a child, and the child is still breastfeeding, so it is impossible to go to other places with you." Hearing that the woman in front of them had already had a child, they didn't believe it, but early marriage is not illegal, the more it is like a flower, the sooner someone wants it, of course they know this, they looked at Jiang Qingyan. Jiang Qingyan was unhappy when she heard that she was already a mother, she didn't want people to know that she was famous, not to mention that she was indeed born a baby under unmarried conditions, she was sullen and ready to leave.
The two officials were originally masters of knowing Rao, and they had already discovered Jiang Qingyan's activity, and one of them actually pressed her shoulder to get up, which was a big taboo, Shi Qi was still enduring it, and he dropped the wine jug when the wind passed, and he said sharply: "Put down your hand, the tavern is not a place for you to go wild." He originally had a grudge against the government, and he was worried that he couldn't find a window to vent. The two officers laughed, and the one who stood up came to the side of Feng Guohang: "From the beginning, I found that you are different from others, and you are not afraid of officials, this is a strange thing, we are wild?" I think it's you who went wild, right? Did you learn three times and two times, thinking that you could ask for the people's lives? Speak up for a weak woman? ”
Feng Guohang was angry, he got up and wanted to teach the other party a lesson, but an invisible force pressed on his shoulder, and he felt that there was someone outside the world for the first time since he left the school. Just in a moment of nervousness, Feng Guohang vigorously used one hand to whisk the clouds and strong wind, this is a heavy hand he learned in close combat, but he didn't expect that the other party was just stunned, and quickly disintegrated his blink Feng Guohang was a little stupid, he sat down again and asked, "I don't know why this adult wants to be majestic in the store?" With such ability, why is it just an ordinary errand officer? The one continued: "Age, to be able to resist my strength without injury, is already commendable, no wonder you have the courage to ask me, with your composure, palm strength, I can tell you that the rivers and lakes are much bigger than you can think, and the masters are much stronger than me." ”
Shi Qi has been looking at each other coldly from the side, he knows that even if he makes a move, he has no chance of winning, not to mention that there is another person on the other side who is smiling, and there is smugness and confidence lurking in that expression. According to the convention, the first to strike must not be the highest hand, obviously the other party is not an ordinary bad official, in this kind of deserted place, Shi Qi can't understand why such a heavy thug came out all of a sudden. After the other party sat down again, he motioned for Feng Guohang to sit down as well, and then he began to ask Feng Guohang: "I can not answer if you ask me, but if I ask you, you have to tell me honestly, there is no harm to you, if I find out that you are dishonest, you have also experienced it, there have been many unjust souls under my palm." ”
No one wants to be threatened without being forced, and Feng Guohang listened to such domineering words, although he was jealous, but he still didn't want to bow down and obey orders. The man who made the shot just now didn't care whether he wanted to sail or not, he suddenly asked, "Your home is in this place?" This is the area managed by Ouyang Yanzhao, the second son of Ouyang Ximu, all the way down to listen to the simple customs of the people, the people are stable, my family wants to find a few people who are willing to tell the truth to understand the real reason, but all the way down, those people I met were afraid when they saw our bad clothes, and the words may not be true. We found that although you are not very old, you can have the guts, and you should have seen the world and can make up for the lack of age. ”
Shi Qi listened curiously on the side, but he didn't linger, he came to Jiang Qingyan's side and asked, "I don't want to be bullied for you, but you are not very happy, why?" Are you still nostalgic for your life in Xiangfu? Jiang Qingyan looked at Shi Qi: "People just want to take me out, why is it bullying?" It's not that you didn't see it, it's an official errand, I saw it, your friend thought that he was flirting with his hands, and he didn't have time to play to stop it. I've seen it in the Prime Minister's Mansion, like them, there are many strong men who can't be bullied, and they are obviously not ordinary officials' servants, and they can't fit this kind of identity in the prefecture and county. ”
Shi Qi knew this truth, and he: "What will you do after you leave?" If they sell you into Fireworks Willow Lane, how are you going to get out? Jiang Qingyan: "They can't do this kind of thing, with their current ability, don't rely on bad clothes, it's their hard work, and they don't need to discuss it." I think they took me to enter the courtyard of the deep house, to find a family for their master, to summon, I used to stay in this poor place for a long time, after arriving at the Prime Minister's Mansion, I knew that the previous life was in vain, the Prime Minister's Mansion one, you can die without regrets. ”
Shi Qi: "It's not that I haven't lived in it, no matter how big the Prime Minister's Mansion is, it's not yours, don't you and that family still have to go to the outdoor flower field in the same cold?" Don't people prefer a beautiful family to be rich and rich? Jiang Qingyan: "That person does not have a mountain of wealth, only a family member, the delicate family is only an aspect of wealth, you have stayed in the Prime Minister's Mansion, you are a guest, and you have not lived a too poor life, so you have no right to talk to me." My family and I are in that kind of place, and it's part of life, it's so big, why did we choose there? I'm also looking for excitement, after coming back, I'm tired of a few months of monotonous life, plus I don't have the capital to restrain you, it's too noisy at night, I still want to go out and see, and the official family will leave an address. ”
Shi Qi didn't sigh, he came to Feng Guohang, and the errand officer looked at Shi Qi: "This second is also taken away, he is not very old, but he is the second shop, he knows a lot of people, knows a lot, and knows a lot, so he can bring more information to the past." Originally, he was unhappy that Jiang Qingyan took the initiative to go with them, but now the two of them rashly wanted to take themselves to the business without asking for their consent, knowing that they were not the opponents of the other party, Shi Qi still: "I have to work, I don't have time to run around with you." ”
Another errand officer, who had been silent, stood up at this time, and he pointed at Shi Qi: "It's just you, our master likes a brave young man like you, maybe it's an opportunity, there is no chance for you to oppose in front of us, just follow me now, don't clean up, someone will naturally send you at that time." As he got up and was about to leave, he looked at Jiang Qingyan and asked, "The woman at the counter, do you want to leave with us too?" It's better to move people than to stand here and sell smiling faces. ”
Jiang Qingyan hesitated to pause the rag in her hand, but Shi Qi's stern gaze made her dare not take the initiative. The errand officer who had been talking earlier faced the one who stood up later: "Do the right thing first, and then there will be time, but don't let the master think that we are perfunctory and spend time on women." The errand officer who stood up later: "It is also our duty to find a few more women, the adults have been idle for many years, and the people waiting around them are not complete, and now it is so hard, we also need a few more people to take care of it." The two of them looked at Shi Qi and Feng Guohang, who had been glaring, and smiled at Jiang Qingyan, knowing that she would not run to chat, and then they were ready to leave with the two of them.
Shi Qi and Feng Guohang are not obedient things, but the ability of the two of them can't resist, and they are also actively looking for countermeasures in each other's eyes, but the other party's casual push, the kind of power that dispels the mountain does not allow them to struggle, only to follow them. Only then did Shi Qi know that he thought that after years of practice, he could not walk alone, but at least he thought that he had achieved personal freedom, and now he once again felt that there were more than people outside the world, and there were groups outside the people. The wind in the wilderness was not bitter, but they still felt the mockery of the birds on the withered trees, and the weakness of the withered grass by the roadside.
Since he had no ability to resist, the man who had been walking in front of the road asked, "How do you address the two?" The man: "Figured it out?" I was also about to ask you, why are you so young, and where did you learn such a skill? Feng Guohang told them that his surname was Feng, that he was an orphan, and that he accidentally let an old man pick up the lesson in a big mountain, and he didn't know the name of the master, but he knew that he was not a celebrity. The man looked at the man behind him, who was obviously the leader: "The two of us are surnamed Lu and Chen, you can just call me Master Lu, I am more capable than you are now at your age, I found when I started just now, your skills are good, but your cultivation is too shallow, as long as you strengthen your practice, when you have strong bones and more experience, you can at least reach our current realm." ”
Chen Guanye continued: "Don't want to know so much, our master just wants you to know some information, you can come back after answering seriously and truthfully, remember, the master is not as good as us, if you don't care, we have no way to protect you if you lose your life, we can only go to your tavern and let them help you collect it." Shi Qi's heart chilled after hearing this, they have already made it not simple, but together with their own masters, obviously not only respect, but also fear, he doesn't know what kind of person he is going to meet, he has no other worries, only the jade flute on his body is what he is worried about.
When they slept at night, Shi Qi and they let the two officials shut up in a closed room, and they also knew that Feng Guohang would get out of the way, but they were unwilling to tie them up, so they had to let them sleep in the room and watch. Feng Guohang, like Shi Qi, has been trying to run away, but after trying a few times, it was unsuccessful, and the two of them can easily resolve some of their actions after drinking.
Finally saw the gorgeous pavilion like the sea from a distance, Shi Qi had entered the Prime Minister's Mansion, but Feng Guohang had never seen a luxurious place, and the sentry posts and pennants in front of him made him feel more rigorous and majestic than the frontier positions of the border pass. He felt a pang in his heart, this is not an ordinary person's daring behavior, from the color made him think of the inviolability of the royal family, although they have not seen it, but they have heard of it.
Shi Qi and Feng Guohang asked them to send them to a place, which was heavily guarded, Shi Qi touched the jade flute on his body, and Lu Guanye and they disappeared as if they had completed the task. The dinner in the evening was much better than on the road, and after the two of them had a good meal, they came to a place, where there were many people who were brought in as inexplicably as them, and they didn't know why, unlike the two of them, most of them were a little scared, some of them had committed things before, some had not experienced them, in short, there was an atmosphere of uneasiness in the crowd.
I thought that someone would receive them in the second place, but soon after dinner, a few people of different ages and levels were brought out, and to their surprise, several groups of people were brought out, but none of them came back. Even if the two of them had the guts, they began to be a little scared, and they didn't sleep too well in the second half of the night. In the morning, Shi Qi did not go with Feng Guohang, he and a few other people came to a place, and there were people at the sentry post in front of the door who searched their bodies, no matter how Shi Qi explained, his flute was still taken away, but he promised to return it to him when he came out.
When he arrived at the lobby, when he was waiting, he saw several officials sitting on the chairs next to him, and the first one of them turned out to be Yang Su. Shi Qi now understands that what he can't see clearly in the middle is the dragon chair in the crossing, and Lord Yang is good to accompany the emperor and his old man on a visit. While they were waiting, Lord Yang spoke, and he said: "You may be a little surprised to be invited here, don't be afraid, you will have the opportunity to see Yan soon, you must kowtow when you see the emperor, you can't raise your head without consent, your voice must be loud, you must tell the truth, you are all people within a radius of 100 miles, you can go back after that." ”
From Yang Su's eyes, Shi Qi also found that the other party saw him, but his eyes told him not to be quiet. After a short time, after hearing the eunuch's announcement, everyone knelt down together, and after the mountain shouted long live, the emperor boarded his reserved seat. Deacon University Scholar: "Since the emperor arranged for the change of Prime Minister Ouyang Ximu, the government in various places has been harmonious, and the emperor is happy, and he deliberately came down to understand the people's feelings, but after arriving here, he found that the people's lives are the same as before, and they have not participated in the change. In order to clarify the reason, the emperor asked for a lottery of simple people, and he personally understood it in person, everyone knew everything, the emperor had a word first, and the one who spoke was not guilty. ”
The emperor: "Don't be restrained, I just want to understand why Prime Minister Ouyang has made such a big change, and his son's territory is not involved." And judging from your current life, although there is not much change, there are not many grievances among the people, and life is very peaceful. I wonder why you don't stay the same here? Did you ask for it, or did Ouyang Yanzhao deliberately go against the policies above. Several people spoke, and Shi Qi generally felt that Ouyang Yanzhao was also trying to reform at the beginning, but in the process of reform, he found a lot of problems that could not be solved, and after recovery, the problem did not exist.
