Chapter 48: The Emperor Lives in the Golden House
A group of seven people, old and young, male and female, three horses, and a carriage.
However, the carriage was not a carriage in which the officials in the capital sat on all sides to shelter from the wind, but two wheels, plus a long wooden plank, and put some thatch.
"Brother Qian heard that you are from the capital."
It was a little girl who spoke, but she was twelve or thirteen years old, and she was lovely, and she looked like a little jade next door.
"Hmm. It's true that he came from the capital, but he didn't stay in the capital for long, but my brother next to him knows a lot, you can ask him. ”
The one who was called Brother Qian was Qian Duo, who had just come out of the capital, and the brother he was talking about was Xu Yan who was reluctant to ride a horse on the side.
"Oh, that big brother Qian, I heard that the emperor is very rich, right?"
The little girl was wearing a dress with patches on it, a pair of straw sandals on her feet, and one of the toes of her right foot coming out of the straw sandals.
When the little girl asked, her eyes were clean and bright, and she was simply full of curiosity about the emperor sitting on the dragon chair.
"Well, it's rich."
Qian Duo can't say that the emperor may not be so rich, and even the palace where he lives has not been renovated for a long time.
"How rich is that?"
The little girl's eyes became brighter and brighter, and Qian Duo really couldn't understand this reason.
"Sister, what are you doing?"
The one who shouted the little girl in front was his sister, who was tall and tall, and her appearance was also in her seventies, but looking at Qian Duo and Xu Yan, it was full of hostility, so that the two of them didn't understand why.
"Second sister, I'm asking Brother Qian a question."
The little girl stuck out her tongue at Qian Duo, looking playful and cute, and shouted in a crisp voice to her second sister.
"What questions do you ask?"
The little girl's second sister also came from the front and turned over into the carriage, although the carriage was not high, like some high in front and low in the back, but it was a little difficult for the second sister of the little girl to come up so easily.
"Nothing."
The little girl didn't dare to tell her second sister that she asked the emperor if he had any money, otherwise the second sister would always reward her two brains when she was angry.
"Your sister asked the Emperor Qian if he had any money."
It was not Qian Duo who spoke, but Xu Yan. And Qian Duo still uses a pseudonym, but it's a little more cheesy, called Qiancai.
Xu Yan is still called Xu Yan, but a certain woman surnamed Qianduo ran out of Chang'an without saying hello.
"Sister, did you ask the emperor what he was doing?"
Not only does his second sister not understand, but Qian Duo also doesn't understand, and Xu Yan doesn't understand it even more.
Looking at the little girl, the two hands rubbed the corners of the clothes, and the two little eyes also lowered their heads and didn't know what they were looking at.
"I remember my father saying that this war is more than anyone's money, and the side with less money always loses first."
The little girl heard the two sentences and three sentences quite clearly, but the voice of the words said later became smaller and quieter, and even the recent Qian Duo listened intermittently and not very clearly.
The little girl's second sister glanced at her sister, and a distressed expression flashed from her eyes, Qian Duo really admired this little girl's father very much, and he could say such a profound truth.
As for Xu Yan, who was still on the horse, he really looked at Qian Duo strangely as if there was something on Qian Duo's face, but after thinking about it, it became clear who had "more money".
Qian Duo looked at Xu Yan and looked at himself, thinking that the little girl's words seemed to be really inappropriate, of course it was the inappropriateness of his name, he didn't feel it in his previous life, and now he feels more and more that Qian Duo is very vulgar.
"Don't worry that the emperor is very rich, the house he lives in is made of gold."
Qian Duo didn't answer the little girl, but the girl's second sister spoke first, but what she said didn't seem to be at all.
Compared with the homes of some ministers, that palace has just a few more pillars and more mud tiles, and if it is made of gold, then if it is corrupt, the world is estimated to be as chaotic as it was during the Sui Dynasty.
But if you really tell the little girl that the emperor's house is not made of gold, but is a little tattered, who will know what kind of thoughts the little girl will have in her heart, and she will be wrong.
"Oh, when the emperor is hungry, can he eat three bowls of porridge at a meal, and then eat a lot of wild vegetables at a time?"
Qian Duo didn't know how to answer, and the emperor only drank two bowls of porridge each time, which was what the little Liu father-in-law told him.
And as for wild vegetables? The emperor probably has never seen that kind of thing, if the food is not the delicacies of the mountains and seas, but also four dishes and one soup per meal, which makes people appetize and can also be called "remembering bitter and sweet rice." ”
I know a lot about this money, and Xu Yan also knows it, but looking at the little girl, she really can't say it, she believes her father's words, the emperor is rich, he can win in Goguryeo, and he can win in Northern Qi.
"Yes, not only can you eat three bowls of porridge, but you will also put a lot of salt in the dish to eat enough."
The little girl's second sister suddenly came to say, but after all, it was not a family that did not enter the door.
If you put a lot of salt in the dish, let alone the emperor, even a person will feel that he can't eat it.
And Qian Duo can guarantee that if the imperial dining room does this, the next day the cook's head will be hung on the castle tower for people to see.
The little girl still asked again, the little girl's second sister was still answering, Qian Duo and Xu Yan were listening...
The path is muddy, but it can't touch the wheels. There is little mud on the road, but there are potholes, which is not very satisfying.
"Big brother do it?"
There are robbers, there are bandits, this is a thing that has existed in all dynasties, some people in order to earn a living, and some people are careless of human life and embark on this road.
There are many birds in the forest, but no matter how many people there are, there are all good people and bad people.
This person who spoke is a well-known ruthless character in this cottage, killing people without blinking, if it is put on him, it is a blind word.
One person slaughtered seventy-two people in a small village with one knife, which is not his proudest deed, but unfortunately he is the second master of the cottage, and he still needs the nod of the big boss above.
"Observed? How many silver taels are there? ”
The big boss is not in a hurry, the prey always can't run away, but the hunter also has to see if the thing is worth it and whether the risk is worth it.
turned his back to everyone, but everyone still looked at the teacup in front of them, if the second boss was made with the blood of others, this big boss was made with the blood of the cottage people.
If it is said that the second master gives people the feeling of looking down from the top of the mountain, then the big master is the feeling of looking at the abyss from the edge of the cliff.
"Although there are not many silver taels, the brothers who observed said that there are two women on it, a little beauty and a big beauty, wouldn't it be good to snatch them back and give them to my brothers?"
In addition to men, there are not many women on the cottage, some of them are cool enough, and they have become dead souls under the knife, and sometimes they have become a shield for officers and soldiers to attack.
These women are dead, no one cares about the cottage, but when you need to solve some physical problems, you need to take a little risk to find a few more.
When the second leader on the mountain is not only able to fight, but also has enough interests for the group of people below to make this group of people obedient, do what they need to do.
"Oh, you're called a beauty? You can check it out. How many people are you going to take with you this time? ”
The big boss nodded slightly, and it was regarded as agreeing. This kind of thing is supposed to be done once or twice a month, and it can be considered a way to relax.
Compared with the interception of gold, silver and jewelry, the risk of this matter is simply too small, as long as it is done cleanly, this side will be a full load, and the government may be anxious.
"There were only seven people in that line, and I took ten brothers with me to make sure that things were done smoothly."
Originally, when the big boss had not yet become a big boss, this matter would be done by five people at most.
Killing, robbing treasures, and burning corpses, five people are more than enough, and everything has become much stricter after this big boss took the throne.
However, in this way, the brothers below are making fewer and fewer mistakes, and the more people mean that they can get some share, but they will not make trouble.
Although the amount of money you get is less than before, the number of times has increased, and it can't be said that you have lost money and made money.
"If you really meet a master, remember that your life is important, and not all of the more than 100 brothers in the cottage eat rice."
The big boss still told the second master, as for whether the second master who was about to walk out of the door heard or not, whether he listened or not, it was another matter.
"Let's go, grab our things, and go down the mountain."
The second master shouted, and several younger brothers behind him also shouted.
And these bandits, except for the second leader of the leader, are all half portrayed in general appearance, holding a knife in his right hand, not what kind of knife it is, but like a firewood knife used in the countryside.
He wears a round hat and dark yellow clothes, and his pants and clothes are all tight-fitting for ease of movement, and his shoes are straw sandals, but they are much stronger than those sold outside.
Although the deeds of the second master are terrifying, but the appearance is not so fierce and vicious, similar to the third master has a long knife edge on his face, and the fourth master is missing an arm.
These two masters are extremely handsome in this cottage in addition to the big masters. He held a ring knife in his hand, and wore straw sandals on his feet, just like the people behind him.
According to the words of the second master, this is called "When straw sandals kill people, blood is stained, go to the river and wash it clean." ”
The clothes and pants are also generally tight, but the color is blue, which looks different from the people around them.
And this blue clothes can only be worn by the second master of this cottage, if others wear this clothes, unless the second master who looks a little delicate is killed.
After taking the good things, each of them wore an empty bag in his arms, and waited for a while to divide the silver taels, and several people wrapped them in this and took them home.
All ready, a group of eleven people, one blue and ten yellow, the second master walked in front, and everyone in the back also hooked the corners of their mouths, as if they had seen two beauties rolling under their bodies.
looks weak and boneless, resists but can't resist, wants to die and is afraid of death.
"There are few thieves on the hard road, and there are many thieves on the small road." An old beggar holding a fortune-teller was singing a cappella at one end, but unfortunately he couldn't hear what the words were behind.
