The Beginning of Troubled Times Chapter 46 The Little Princess and the Unscrupulous Boy (5)
In the same month, the imperial capital, Apocalypse City.
When Tuoba Yan threw the army into the city, whether it was the ordinary people, or the princes and nobles, they all hid in their own homes and embraced their families, hoping that Tuoba Yan's butcher's knife could reach their heads later, and the more courageous people were like taking advantage of the chaos to escape from the city, but without exception they were all caught.
Some people say that the 1.8 million people in Apocalypse City will be killed by Tuoba Yan at least half.
This person was only half right, Tuoba Yan, who killed half of the officials of the court, and then he thought about it and killed half of the remaining half.
Originally, he wanted to kill the first person, it was Wen Li, the uncle and the uncle, but unfortunately Wen Li ran away and didn't succeed.
So the first person to be killed became the Tai Lieutenant Shangguan Mingquan, Tuoba Yan angrily scolded him in the Shangguan Mingquan Mansion as a Tai Lieutenant, in charge of the military affairs of the Quartet, but he let it go, so that he broke through the imperial capital and took charge of the country's major affairs, but in front of Wen Li, he only dared to say a good word, excellent, and he got rid of a "good Tai Lieutenant", Tuoba Yan's disposal of him was to cut off his head with a knife, punish the nine clans, and all the maids and servants in the house became slaves.
Situ Zheng Zikong, Guangluxun Bao Xiquan, Taifu Jiang Zhifu, Yanwei Wang Xiuyao, and Shaofu Meng Jianyan.
Zheng Fengbin, the middle of the five senses, Cai Siyun of the right middle lang, Huang Changxiang, the doctor of Guanglu, Lei Yiren of the waiter, Sun Lekang, and the Lantai Ling Bao Guangmin......
From the three princes and nine kings to the ordinary Beijing officials, the pride of these Daxi literati was slaughtered by Tuoba Yan overnight, and a scholar who came to Tianqi City to take the exam heard about Tuoba Yan's move, and cried bitterly for a day and a night in the post house where he lived, and on the third day, he suddenly scattered all his finances, and left the post house wearing only his shabby green shirt.
That day, he met Tuobayan's carriage on Ziyang Street, the pedestrians retreated, and Yaque was silent, but he suddenly stretched out his hand and stopped the carriage.
Tuoba Yan lifted the curtain, frowned, and suddenly smiled, he drank back from the guards, wanting to see what this young man wanted to do.
"General! If the Assassin ......" Tuobayan's henchmen refused to back down.
"Assassins? How many people in the world can kill me? Tuoba Yan waved his hand and motioned for the henchman to stand down, and the henchman glared at the young man with murderous eyes before stepping aside.
"Okay, whatever you want to say and what you want to do, you can get started." Tuoba Yan said to the young man.
The young man's eyes were staring at Tuobayan, as if he was going to eat him alive, he raised his head, stretched out his index finger and pointed at Tuobayan, gritted his teeth, and said word by word, "Tyrant Tuobayan, brutal, with a lizard as his heart, a jackal as a heart, a jackal, close to a wicked person, a cruelty to the loyal and good, in the position of a general, but he pollutes the country and harms the people, poisons people and ghosts!" Bearing the emperor's order, he plotted again, stole the Daxi Guozuo, and trapped the king to death, which is the common anger of people and gods, and the place of heaven and earth is not tolerated! Today's move should be the backbone of the world! ”
"Tuobayan!" The young man suddenly looked up to the sky and laughed wildly, "The princes of the world will eventually rise up to rebel!" Wang Daoguang rejuvenation is just around the corner! And you, when the time comes, will definitely be crushed and ashes! ”
Tuoba Yan sighed, shook his head, and retracted into the carriage again, no longer looking at the young man, "Let's go." He said to the people outside.
The young man was suddenly stunned, he thought that Tuoba Yan would definitely kill him in a rage, but he didn't expect that it would be such an ending.
"It would be nice if all the people in the world were like you." Tuoba Yan whispered in the carriage.
......
Eighteen miles outside the city of Yingzhou, eighteen miles of town, this town is named because it is eighteen miles away from Yingzhou, although there is a distance from Yingzhou, the liveliness here is no less than that in Yingzhou City, most of the people who come and go are coming...... Temporarily sheltered from the limelight.
The big husband can bend and stretch, but if he can't fight, he can only run first.
Bai Jiujiu was leading the horses and was bargaining with a horse market owner, Ye Yuxuan was wearing a hat, standing not far from Bai Jiujiu, looking around.
"Young man, I see that your horses are very bright, and they look strong and well-proportioned," the short and fat horse dealer raised his head, suddenly pulled the mouth of the horse closest to him, looked carefully at the teeth of this horse, and then went around to the other horses, and looked at them one by one, he pondered for a while, and said, "It's a pity, there are two horses that are a little old, and the price will not be high, and your horses are all hybrids~ horses, and the price is not comparable to those purebred high-quality horses." ”
Bai Jiujiu leaned next to a horse, squinted his eyes, listened to the horse dealer with a smile, and nodded from time to time in agreement.
"Well, I see that this is the first time you have come to sell horses, and I can't let you suffer," said the horse dealer, stretching out three fingers and smiling at Bai Jiujiu, "How about I give you three hundred taels of silver for these five horses?" It's not a loss, right? ”
"Oh, three hundred taels?!" Bai Jiu pretended to be surprised, stood up straight all of a sudden, approached the boss, grabbed his hand and said, "Boss, I have never seen three hundred taels of silver in my life, how much does this have to weigh?" ”
"It's not heavy, it's not heavy," the boss wanted to break free of Bai Jiujiu's hand, but he didn't break free with a little effort, ouch, this kid has a lot of strength, but he didn't care, and perfunctory Bai Jiujiu said two sentences, turned around and asked his buddy to get the silver, "Go, get three hundred taels of silver for this son." ”
The man behind the horse dealer immediately turned around and went into the house to get the money, as if he was afraid that Bai Jiu would regret it, and the horse dealer was happy in his heart, and met a wronged man who didn't understand horses, holding seven good Xiliang horses in his hands, such horses are priceless, maybe someone will buy them at a price of thousands of taels of silver, if it weren't for the kid who said that the two horses should be kept for himself to ride, Lao Tzu would even have to buy those two.
The man put the money in a small wooden box, took it out with difficulty, and put it between Bai Jiujiu and the horse dealer, the horse dealer wanted to reach out to take the money, but he still couldn't pull it out, so he had to wait for Bai Jiujiu to take a look, and said with a smile, "Then we'll ...... Deal? ”
"Deal, deal." Bai Jiu let go of the horse dealer's hand, hugged the money box, sighed, and said, "It's quite heavy." ”
"Isn't that? What about three hundred taels? The horse dealer deliberately added three hundred taels of these three words, he wanted to pat Bai Jiujiu's shoulder, but found that it was a little out of reach, so he had to retreat, patted his arm, and said with a smile, "Brother, there will be horses in the future, you can take them to me to sell them again!" I'll give you a good price! ”
"Yo, that's really thank you, brother," Bai Jiupi smiled without smiling, "Let's go." ”
Ye Yuxuan walked over, a little surprised, "Can those horses be sold for so much money?" ”
"Of course, this money has to be collected, otherwise it will be seen by others, and maybe you will have to snatch the money back." Bai Jiujiu said seriously.
In the previous stable, the horse dealer Xiong He looked at the two figures that were getting farther and farther away, and suddenly called one of his fellows, and the fellow stood beside him, and without speaking, he suddenly kicked the fellow, jumped up and grabbed the fellow's ear, and grinned the fellow's aching teeth.
"Send a few clever people to keep an eye on those two offspring, if you can, ......" Xiong He made a gesture of wiping his neck, the guy nodded, and was about to leave, Xiong He suddenly stopped him, "If that little girl looks okay, bring it back to me, remember?" ”
"Remembered, remembered." The man said yes a few times, turned and trotted away.
......
Bai Jiujiu and Ye Yuhui lived in a small village a few miles away from Eighteen Mile Town, there was no inn in the village, so they had to go to spend the night with someone, fortunately, they knocked on the door of the first family, and after explaining the situation, the old woman who lived alone agreed, and did not take a penny, saying that her daughter had not come back for a long time since she got married, and she felt very happy looking at the two of them. The old woman even prepared a meal for them, but the clear soup was not watery, and only one scrambled egg with green onion was a bit oily and watery, but the two of them still ate very happily.
"I thought a princess wouldn't eat anything like this." Bai Jiujiu joked.
Ye Yuhui picked up a small piece of egg again, put it in her mouth and chewed it carefully, after swallowing it, she whispered, "When I was a child, I actually ate not much better than this, and then after the grandmother who took care of me died, I was left alone, no one could think of me, I sometimes couldn't eat a decent meal for two or three days, I sneaked to the imperial dining room by myself and found something to eat by myself." ”
She suddenly sighed again, "Actually, it's okay to be hungry, in such a big house, the feeling of being alone is the most uncomfortable." ”
Saying that, Ye Yuhui seemed to remember something a long time ago, and tears suddenly flowed down her eyes, but she didn't seem to know it at all, until Bai Jiu pointed to her eyes, she reacted, quickly wiped away her tears, smiled awkwardly, and continued to bow her head to eat.
Bai Jiujiu finished the rice in the bowl with five divisions and two without a little scrambled eggs with green onions, in fact, before, a large part of it was eaten by him, he stood up, "I'm full, go out for a walk, you are here, with the old man, don't go far." ”
Ye Yuxuan lowered his head and did not answer.
"Do you hear that?!" Bai Jiujiu suddenly fell in front of Ye Yuyi, wanting to scare her.
But Ye Yuyi didn't say anything to him for the first time, just nodded lightly and snorted.
Bai Jiuyue sighed, just walked out of the door, and happened to meet the old woman, he smiled and said to the old woman, "Old man, I'm too full, go out for a walk." ”
The old woman nodded and said, "Remember to come back early, it's not safe after dark here." ”
Bai Jiujiu nodded, pretended to walk on the road for a while, until he couldn't see the room anymore, then his figure suddenly flashed, and after moving in the shadows for a while, he returned to the old woman's door, but this time, he was standing behind a two-person thick tree in the distance, he lowered his body, patted the person who was staring at the old woman's yard intently, and said, "Brother, what are you looking at?" ”
