The leaves fall in autumn, and the snow arrives in winter. Unknowingly, Yu Niang has been living in the Taishou Mansion for more than two months. The clothes on his body changed from a thin skirt to thick cotton. The initial shame gradually turned into numbness and indifference. Hao Sheren doesn't have anything to do during the day, he only drinks and plays cards with fox friends and dog friends, but when he comes back at night, he keeps asking Yu Niang for joy. Yu Niang was reluctant in her heart, but when she thought that her life was in the hands of this person, she had no choice but to refuse. Hao Sheren wanted to be very strong, and he had to pull Yu Niang to have fun every day and night, and his methods were rough and rude, and he didn't treat Yu Niang as a person at all in every move, just like a doll, and over time, Yu Niang got used to it. For two months, the gate was not out, and she paced back and forth in the courtyard all day long, and the rest was to wait for Hao Sheren to come back and throw her on the bed. It is like this every day, and it is impossible to avoid it even during the menstrual period. The snow is full of cold city, but compared to Yu Niang's state of mind, it is much inferior.

On this day, as always, Yu Niang held the stove alone in the courtyard and watched the snow scene. The courtyard was covered with a thin snow, the garden was white, and the evening sky was dim, but it also matched his pale face. Yu Niang was sad to herself, but when she heard a creak, she saw Hao Sheren walking in from outside the courtyard.

"You're back." Yu Niang got up, knowing that the next thing would inevitably be a night of destruction, but fortunately, she was already used to it, so she just asked lightly: "Today is still it"

"No," Hao Sheren frowned slightly, "Let's rest early today." After a pause, he said, "I'll go sleep in the side room tonight." So saying, he went into the house, took the bedding, and went to the side room.

Yu Niang was slightly stunned, on weekdays, Hao Sheren came back at this time, and he was already impatient, so he picked up Yu Niang and ran to the house, how could it be like this today. Seeing Hao Sheren enter the side room, Yu Niang was a little overwhelmed in her heart. Slowly came to the side room, wanting to ask Hao Sheren what happened, but he reached out and pushed it, and the door was bolted from the inside. I could only hear Hao Sheren's voice in the room: "Rest early, it's cold." I slept first. ”

Yu Niang had no choice but to go back to the house by herself, but she was used to the days of greedy joy and all-nighters in the past, and today she suddenly lay down so early, she couldn't sleep peacefully for a while, so she had to light an oil candle and lie on the bed and look at the shadow on the wall.

It was difficult for her to fall asleep here, but she didn't know that in the side room, Hao Sheren couldn't sleep in general. It's just that although it is the same, the reasons are different. Let's start by day.

It turned out that during the day today, Hao Sheren drank with a few friends as usual, and when he drank deeply, he began to talk about national affairs. A friend joked while drinking: "I really admire your courage, brother." ”

Hao Sheren was puzzled when he heard this, and couldn't help asking, "What kind of courage?" I'm just greedy and lustful, what does it have to do with the word bold? ”

When the man heard this, he couldn't help laughing, causing all the drinkers at the table to laugh. When Hao Sheren saw them laughing like this, he was even more like falling into a cloud for five miles. I only heard another person laugh and said: "Now the Great Sui River and Mountains are in danger, and our city is far away from Shenjing." It is adjacent to Chang'an, if the palace is empty today, Chang'an is turbulent, and it is difficult to protect itself. Our city is far away from the Yangtze River, there are no natural dangers to screen, and there are few mountains, and there is no terrain to live in. Isolated here, the city is in danger of being broken at any time. You are in a position of great duty, and you can still accompany our brothers to drink and have fun here every day, how can you not say that you are a brave person? ”

Hao Sheren frowned slightly when he heard this, and asked, "You are all so relaxed, but what am I afraid of?" ”

As soon as he said this, everyone laughed even more. A person who usually has a good relationship with him couldn't help laughing, and after a pause, he said, "Brother Hao, do you really don't know, or do you really don't know?" Now outside, Dou Jiande and Li Mi are each grabbing territory, killing local officials and assigning new people every time they pass through the city. We are ordinary people, and in order to win people's hearts, the righteous army will naturally not do anything to us, but Brother Hao, you are in a position of too much duty, how can they spare you? If the people here praise and love you, it will be okay to gather people to intercede for you at that time, if not, then I am afraid that Brother Hao, the master, will have to change places. Then the crowd burst into laughter.

Hearing these words, Hao Sheren was covered in a cold sweat, he only knew that being an official was interesting, rich and powerful, and he had to stutter everywhere, but he didn't know anything about this world. Originally, I wanted to show off how I was blessed by heaven and how I got this position, but now I can't say anything. "So they filmed me here to make me the ghost of the dead?" Thinking of this, Hao Sheren couldn't help but be afraid and angry, and he didn't care about drinking, so he hurried back to the mansion, leaving only a group of people to wait in place to continue drinking and talking.

Hao Sheren hurriedly ran into the mansion, and Gong Cao couldn't help but step forward to ask him when he saw him so flustered. So Hao Sheren learned the words he heard in the restaurant to Gong Cao one by one. He trembled and almost fainted.

That Gong Cao knew this, but he thought in his heart that this Hao Sheren looked stupid, and finally a new Taishou came, if he told him about the stakes, wouldn't he scare away another one? Therefore, although they treat each other politely on weekdays, they do not say anything about it. I thought to myself that anyway, you are taking care of yourself, I am so hard and low, when the city is broken, I will not be killed. When the time comes, I just cry in front of the leader of the righteous army for a while, saying that in your fish and meat town, I am powerless and can't stop it. Then everything will be fine. Seeing that he actually took the initiative to talk about this today, he knew that he couldn't hide it, so he pretended to comfort him: "Then what are you going to do, master?" ”

"What else can I do? Run for your life. Hao Sheren clapped his hands and paused: "If you don't leave, just wait for your head to move." ”

"Not really." Seeing that he wanted to escape, Gong Cao hurriedly comforted: "I have a plan to help you eliminate this disaster." ”

"Speak quickly, speak quickly." When Hao Sheren heard Gong Cao say this, he said as if he had grasped a life-saving straw: "What is the clever plan of the sir?" ”

"That's it." Gong Cao said: "Those rebels all claim to be obedient to the heavens and kill local officials when they invade cities, thinking that they hate corrupt officials and corrupt officials. If you do a few good things for the sake of the people, the city will be broken when the time comes. As long as the common people say that before the rebellion, won't your life be saved? ”

"Exactly." When Hao Sheren heard him say this, he couldn't help but be happy: "My brother said the same thing. But he suddenly got up and said, "But what is the big thing in the local area to eliminate harm for the people?" If you really ask me to look for it, I won't be able to find it for a while. ”

"It's easy to do." Na Gong Cao smiled: "Is that beauty in the old man's mansion still safe?" ”

"Jade Niang?" Hao Sheren was stunned and asked, "What are you asking her for?" Ah, what's wrong? ”

"That Yu Niang committed a murder, although the lord cherishes her beauty, but he also has to understand the stakes." Gong Cao whispered: "She is a capital crime, if you change her file a little, saying that she is a scourge to the township, colluding with foreign countries, secretly communicating with the tigers, and harboring evil intentions." posted a notice in the whole city and sentenced her to a beheading, who wouldn't be amazed by the people at that time? ”

"This is not very good" Hao Sheren frowned slightly, thinking of Yu Niang's ten thousand styles, he couldn't help but look embarrassed. Seeing him like this, Gong Cao couldn't help but say: "The poisonous snake devours his fingers, the strong man should break his wrist to protect himself, master, you are just a prostitute now, are you planning to even take your own life?" ”

Hearing this, Hao Sheren was shocked, only to see him stunned for a long time, and suddenly nodded and said, "Then do it!" ”
