Chapter III. 18
"Yan Shuqing, you listen to me! From now on, I will be the eldest lady of your family, and you will be the little maid of my family. By the way, since it's a maid, there must be a maid's name to be like that...... Then I'll call you Chun Tao, right? ”
Li Le'an, who was wearing a fox fur, was saying to the princess Fengyang who poked out a small head and was looking around outside the carriage.
Early this morning, Shen Gui personally drove an inconspicuous old carriage and carried Yan Shuqing, the princess of Fengyang, who was pretending to be a civilian woman, out of the west gate of Fengjing City. But before the carriage had gone five miles away, it was forcibly stopped by a 'masked man' who was in the middle of the road.
Li Le'an has been accustomed to following Lin Siwei everywhere since she was a child, and the seemingly peaceful lifestyle in Fengjing City is simply a purgatory-like torture for her. Now that she has such a good opportunity, of course she has to follow her 'lover', Shen Gui, and 'wander the world' together. However, if it were just the two of them, it might be regarded as a 'honeymoon trip' that was paid in advance, but now that there is an extra 'light bulb', it will be like a 'trip to catch the adulterer'...
"Spring peach? What a broken name! I don't want it! Shuqing sounds so good, if you're afraid of revealing your stuffing, won't you just change your surname? And why can you be a big lady? I have to be a maid? Don't do it, don't do it! If it's a miss, it's a miss; If it's a maid, it's all a maid, don't always think about taking advantage of me! ”
Yan Shuqing, who went out for the first time, was already immersed in the northern scenery in the heavy snow. Those mountains and rivers covered in silver have a fatal attraction and freshness for this little princess; Even though she had frozen the tip of her nose and ears red, she was still reluctant to put that little head back into the carriage......
"It's still a princess! What kind of brain do you have? Look at our clothes, serious 800 fox skins! What are you made of your torn clothes? The cotton in the dog's skin can be the appearance of a big lady? Even if it's a big girl, it's a small one! Do you know what 'small' is? It's not as good as a concubine! It's the kind of woman who is used to entertain friends in a big family in Beiyan! And even if he gives birth to a son, he is still a concubine, and he has no inheritance at all! Give birth to a litter of sons, that is a litter of children......"
"I'm fighting with you! What about my bow! ”
Shen Gui, who was sitting outside in charge of catching the car, never expected that Li Le'an, who had just left Fengjing, would have a poisonous and broken mouth! In just a few words, the princess Fengyang, who had received 'palace education', was now going to redeem her life......
"Two eldest ladies, can we stop making trouble? It's no better to go out than to Fengjing, you have to be careful in everything......"
"And you Shen Gui! Haven't you never been out of the East Customs for half a step, what kind of old rivers and lakes are you decorating with our two little daughters! Things between women, you don't intervene! Otherwise, I'll clean up with you! ”
Shen Gui, who was scolded for being bloody, had to vent his heart full of depression and whip after whip on the horse pulling the cart...... He closed his lips tightly and flicked his whip as if in anger, making a crisp 'snap' sound......
However, I don't know if it was the reason for this whip that it attracted an 'uninvited guest' in this snowy wilderness......
"Hey bro, do you have alcohol on you? It's too cold this day, just now we passed by the bank of the Youyou River, and the river surface was frozen 'Gaba Gaba Sound'......"
With the shouts of the man behind him, the house of the two daughters, who were noisy in the carriage, also fell completely silent.
Hearing the shouts in the wind, Shen Gui, who was driving the car, didn't even turn his head back, nor did he speed up his horsewhip; Instead, he raised his right arm and rubbed it under his nose very rudely, as if he was rubbing away the frozen snot:
"I'm a poor driver, how can I have the money to buy wine! If you walk west for half a day, you'll almost reach Jincheng. There are taverns in the city......"
There is a saying in the Youbei coachman's class: the three treasures of the car, the inferior wine wax oil dog skin jacket. This wax is applied to the hands and face as a protective measure to prevent freezing and cracking by the cold wind; The dog skin is made of jacket noodles, which can not only withstand the wind and cold, but also the price is cheaper; As for the bad wine, it's even more of a first-class magic weapon to ward off the cold!
Today's new 'King of Zhongshan in Youbei', how can he still look like a prince? Wearing a shabby dogskin jacket, both sleeves were shiny with snot; His originally white and handsome cheeks were also blown red by the cold wind as sharp as a knife at this time, and even the beard stubble that had just emerged from his upper lip was now covered with a layer of frost......
And the man who begged him for a drink, after hearing this, not only did not leave, but stepped up a few strokes of the whip and caught up with the 'little coachman'......
"Where's my brother? Which bowl of rice is on the wheel? ”
"This trip to Ludong! On the wheels hung two sheep fruits, two five of the fire, and the fruit of the water (I brought two hostages in the car, a broad lady and a poor girl). ”
"Brother has a kiln to eat? Or did you just get on the springboard? (Bandit black words: Ask Shen Gui if he is an old bandit on the mountain, or a novice who has just debuted). ”
"The red ticket pillar that just went into the water! Friend, go wider! Twenty-five is twenty-five, but there is no rice on the body. (I'm a kidnapper who just started out in the industry, don't fight this idea!) Although she was a young lady in the car, she didn't have much silver on her).
"Don't worry, take the road of friends and spend money on family money, we can save this rule."
When he had said that, the man shook his arm behind the empty man and whistled in a patchwork manner; Then he patted Shen Gui's back, and then beat the horse and walked towards the opposite side......
After a full half of the incense time, Li Le'an's voice came out of the carriage again:
"Where did that man come from? The master didn't give me spring (he didn't teach me the spring ceremony), and I can't understand what you say......"
Shen Gui, who was sitting outside the carriage, grinned and shouted behind him:
"That man is a bandit who has fallen into the grass, and he has just negotiated a business with me, let me send you two little lady's skins to their mountain, and give them the 'big shopkeeper' to be a lady of the village!"
Of course, Li Le'an knew that he was talking nonsense, but because of the cold wind outside the carriage, he could only stab Shen Gui's back with a sheathed spring rain sword along the gap in the cotton curtain of the door......
As the saying goes, 'mountains and rivers meet', and those who are destined to meet will always meet again one day in the future.
Shen Gui, who had just booked a house in an inn in Jincheng, had not had time to lead the horses into the backyard stable, when he felt a strong man walking towards him behind him......
With a muffled 'bang', the man's raised right hand slapped Shen Gui's shoulder steadily.
"Brother, let's meet again! These nine people who are out of the house in the middle of winter, what a lot of fate it must be to meet twice! Since there is fate, then I, who is an elder brother, have to invite you to drink! Drink big! ”
This somewhat familiar man is the bandit who followed Shen Gui 'Tuanchun' (to blacken) on the road!
Speaking of this spring ceremony of the Jianghu people, it is also a very complicated science. In fact, a long time ago, the Jianghu people in the south and the north did not speak the same kind of black language; Therefore, even if the 'North-South and the old cooperation' meet, they will not be able to communicate with each other at all.
However, the wisdom of the masses of the people is boundless!
After the careful sorting and gradual improvement of many predecessors in the rivers and lakes, the three hundred and sixty lines on the rivers and lakes now not only have a set of black language systems within their own industries; Even the great drawbacks of the lack of communication between the north and the south have been eliminated. It is the so-called 'Southern Spring and Northern Classics' that are fused together to give rise to the name 'Spring Classics'. Nowadays, this set of black words is not only common in the north and south; And as long as the other party opens his mouth 'Tuanchun', he can hear that he is 'in which door' of the rivers and lakes!
Therefore, the first sentence of this man and Shen Gui just now exposed his own 'profession' - banditry. And they are also bandits north of Yanjing City! Because as long as Yanjing City passes, even the bandits of the Ludong generation can only be called 'Xiangma', and the spring ceremony mentioned by 'Xiangma' is another set of 'language family'.
Now the two of them met in a small inn in Jincheng, but because they were in the city and the inn was crowded, they switched to Youbei official dialect to communicate.
Don't join the spring in front of laymen, this is also the rule of Jianghu people.
"Since the eldest brother invited the brother to drink, the brother invited the eldest brother to eat meat! But it's not right now, bother my brother to wait a little longer, and my brother has to take care of the two 'owners', in case it ...... But it's troublesome. ”
After Shen Gui finished speaking, he led the bandit's gaze to the guests who were tying horses around him, and the young man who was adding grass and materials, and he didn't say anything more.
"Okay! I'll have to arrange for the brothers, so we'll meet in half an hour! ”
"In a word, I'm still waiting to drink my brother's wine!"
After saying that, they both laughed heroically and went their separate ways.
Where the familiar bandit has gone, I will not mention him for the time being; Speaking of the 'Shen Cheman' who left the inn stable, he went around the large and small alleys in Jincheng, and also passed through several shophouses, and after making sure that no one was following him, he dodged and slipped in along the back door of the Jincheng Mansion.
After many days, I came again, but I didn't expect the back hall of Jincheng Mansion to still be very 'lively'. I don't know why after such a big turmoil, the prefect of Jincheng, Lord Gu, and his palm print wife Huang can still 'not forget their original intentions'......
"Gu Hui! You old bastard who lacks eight generations of great virtue! The old lady followed you, and it can be regarded as eight generations of blood mold! Neither of us will live today, my mother will fight with you! If we have grievances and hatreds, let's go 'below' to find a judge to judge! ”
"Immorality! Shrew! Insulting Sven! …… Yes......! ”
Regardless of asking, it can be known that this terrible scream must be the 'old bastard' Master Gu, who was poisoned by his own lady......
