Chapter 20: The Beggar in the City
Nowadays, the weather is getting colder and colder, and the surrounding trees are already bare, standing trembling on the lonely streets, sometimes where there are water beaches, and the children will linger around with their icy red ears, but they will not last long, and they will be forced back into the house by the cold.
Dongsheng stands in the Fumei Garden, this year's plum blossoms are blooming again, the fragrance is very strong, especially in the past few days, there are still snow particles, falling whirlly, the white snow and the red plum reflect each other, there are a few differences. He didn't pay attention to these things before, in the past, he was more of a battlefield in his eyes, a general's mansion, these things were too extravagant for him, and he belonged to killing.
However, there was a man who took him and saw the beautiful scenery of the journey after the journey, and he was not satisfied with the past.
Wusu's mind is too difficult to figure out, and he is used to being ruthless, he is irritable, so he randomly pulled out a sword and waved it in the place where he usually practiced martial arts.
He didn't think there was anything special, he just felt that what Wusu liked was pleasing to the eye when he looked at it. They have a knot directly and forever, and he is anxious to open it, seeking stability and longevity in the relationship between the two, but for Usu, it is not.
Perhaps, he was to Usu, and she might have let go of some true feelings in the relationship between the two of them, but he could easily feel that Usu was ready to withdraw at any time, even after the last time she herself promised never to leave him again.
The snow was a little heavier, and some of the plum branches were so heavy that they were almost bent over, and the plum blossoms on the branches were almost covered so that they couldn't be seen, just like the relationship between them, slowly being buried, and she was still retreating, with a little guilt and some relief and then peace of mind.
Suddenly there was a sound of footsteps, very anxious, Dong Sheng stopped his movements, looked at the person who came, it was Liu Mo, he frowned, "What's the matter?" ”
Liu Mo replied anxiously, "General, Vice General Liang just came to write a letter, and it was sent urgently." He stopped talking.
Dong Sheng's heart was heavy, he threw down his sword and opened the letter, and when he saw the content of the letter, his heart was even heavier, "What about the person who sent the letter?" ”
"The messenger was intercepted and killed halfway, but fortunately, Brother Leng Keng just arrived and didn't let the letter be intercepted halfway. The general,* seems to have been detected by the Prime Minister's Mansion, and now several people are investigating, but I am afraid that the situation will be more complicated. ”
Dongsheng pondered for a moment and asked, "What about Wusu?" What is the action of the trapped golden ginseng now? ”
"This ......" Liu Mo looked at Dongsheng's serious expression, thinking of Wusu and Sleepy Golden Ginseng, who are together almost every day now, and it was a little difficult to answer.
"But something happened?" His expression was a little more solemn.
Liu Mo saw that the general misunderstood, and hurriedly explained, "No, Miss Wusu is fine, but recently, the sleepy Jin Shen and the girl have always been in and out of pairs, which inevitably caused some gossip, and ...... It seems that Miss Wusu did not shy away from it, and I privately asked Duo'er to implicitly remind the girl to be on guard against men and women, but the girl did not have any concerns about this, and she was still very close to the sleepy Jinshen. ”
After listening to this, Dongsheng didn't see any obvious change in his eyes, but calmly ordered Liu Mo to retreat.
The snow was a little smaller, and he picked up the long sword that was almost buried by the snow on the ground, and returned to the study in silence.
There was a knock on the door, "General, the old lady asked if you want to have dinner together in Chengxin Courtyard tonight?" "It's the voice of the botanical.
He hung his sword upright on the wall, "If you have something to do tonight, you tell your mother that I will go to Chengxin Courtyard to have dinner with her another day." ”
"Yes."
The footsteps were far away, and Dongsheng suddenly fell on the couch by the window, and the past was floating in front of him, these trivial matters were even more difficult to deal with than the battlefield. And now because of the * incident, several countries have caused a sensation, and sooner or later there will be problems with the identity of Wusu, not to mention other countries for the time being, even if the king of his country knows that this matter is related to Wusu, and he is guilty of it, Wusu is also in danger, but fortunately, he was trapped in Jinshen at the beginning, and he did things secretly and avoided trouble for the time being.
Thinking of *, even he, a person who has experienced killing since childhood, can't help but be terrified, a few *, is tens of thousands of fresh lives, even if it is not for Wusu, for the people of his own country Xuanguo, he has to do everything to make the clues of * cut off cleanly.
His eyes sank, first of all, the first one was the trapped golden ginseng, in addition to Wusu, he is now the person who knows the most about the most things, and now he is still planning to surround Wusu, if he wants to get rid of this person cleanly, he will inevitably be more estranged from Wusu, and he feels that this matter is tricky when he thinks about it. There was a faint pain in his temples, and Dong Sheng stretched out his fingers and rubbed it, "Tian Du, how is the situation of the sixth prince now?" ”
A shadow appeared in the shadows, "The Sixth Prince's side is also sending additional people to investigate the matter*, listening to Leng Keng, it seems that he has now targeted the Rejuvenation Valley?" ”
"Divine Doctor Kong Nengshi?"
"Yes, I heard that * must have flowed out of the Rejuvenation Valley Confucian Divine Doctor, but when a few people passed, there was no one in the valley, so they must have already shifted their positions."
Dongsheng thought of the trapped golden ginseng, "Can anyone find the Yongcai Pharmacy?" ”
"Not yet, however, by peeling off the cocoon, the chance of finally finding out the trapped shopkeeper is not small, after all, the sleepy shopkeeper and Dr. Kong had some origins in the early years, although later the two broke off and became strangers."
"But it was also the providence of God to help him. In this case, you can tell Liu Mo to send some more people to the girl's side," thinking of Wusu's resistance now, he added, "Just be careful to hide in the dark and take care of your safety, don't expose your traces." ”
"Yes."
"Also, the Sixth Prince, the news in the palace has been investigated tightly, and you have to find a way to send a message to the Sixth Prince, telling him to pay attention to the movements of the Prime Minister's Mansion. Just now there was a letter from the border pass, the soldiers of Liang State provoked, I may go to the border pass in the next few days, you tell him to pay more attention to all movements, and also take care of Wusu by the way. ”
"My subordinates understand."
Changyang at night is always very lively, more prosperous than during the day, and even in recent days, everywhere has been more strictly guarded than usual, but it has not diminished the slightest noise it deserves.
Along the main street, the silk and satin shops are dazzling, the restaurants and tea shops are lined up, Wusu and Duo'er are infected by the excitement, and they always like to make up everywhere, look east and west, have a lot of fun, and the sleepy gold ginseng follows them around.
Seeing that Sleepy Jin Ginseng was playing with them like this with nothing to do, it didn't look like his temperament, Wusu finally couldn't help but ask, "Brother Sleepy, don't you need to go to the store recently?" ”
Sleepy Jin Shen was still holding a hairpin with exquisite workmanship in his hand, and he looked at it carefully, and when he heard Wusu's words, he said with a smile, "Although the shop is big, the people in charge of things inside are all powerful characters, I am more worry-free, go, and continue to walk ahead." ”
A group of people were about to walk out of the store, and suddenly a person ran straight to Wusu, Wusu flashed to the right, and the person also flashed over and knocked Wusu to the ground, this person was dressed in coarse rags, thinking that he was a beggar, and after knocking down Wusu, he also lay down on the ground, crying and mourning, and scolded, "Which thing that kills a thousand knives and doesn't have long eyes, rampaged to pick me and other shabby and down-to-earth people to bully ......"
As soon as Wusu landed, the sleepy golden ginseng flashed over to protect her, "But what's the injury?" ”
Wu Su covered his arm, which was still painful, looked at the beggar who was sitting on the ground upside down black and white, and his mouth never stopped, frowning and shaking his head, "It's okay, it's okay." ”
Only then did the sleepy Jin Shen vigorously help Wusu to stand up, and loudly ordered the little guy behind him, "Give me such a dog thing that climbs and bites indiscriminately and turns black and white upside down." ”
The beggar is a well-known ruffian in the neighborhood, he knows that he is wrong, and he is all acting here according to the orders of others, thinking about the young lady of a big family, and she is helpless, and sometimes even in order to take care of decency, maybe she will get a few small money, and when the big deal is that he has to send the official in the end, it is not too much to run, he has done a lot of such things, and he is handy.
It's just that I didn't expect that the rich and decent son who was looking at him next to him would be such a fierce and imposing character, he didn't say anything, and started to fight directly, but he was not stunned, he only opened his throat and cried, "You rich and powerful people, dogs fight people, and you don't compensate for the losses if you hit someone, and you still want the lives of poor people like me, and your mind is vicious, ...... vicious."
Wu Su was dumbfounded, this is the ancient version of touching porcelain, it really depends on a mouth, she was just touched on the shoulder, and it was still in pain at the moment, so she had to stand behind the trapped golden ginseng, and her heart was amazed.
Sleepy Jin Ginseng just looked coldly at the beggar on the ground with a handful of snot and tears, and looked at the more and more people who were around, Qian Lai obviously cowered, and sneered, "Qian Lai, do you want Grandpa to do it myself?" ”
He stretched out his foot and kicked Qian Lai forward, and Qian Lai hurriedly shouted as if he had just woken up from a dream and ordered several other little servants to walk towards the beggar who was making trouble, punching and kicking it, the beggar was still howling at first, and then it was estimated that he was beaten hard, his voice gradually weakened, and began to beg for mercy again and again.
The trapped golden ginseng had no intention of stopping, and Wu Su looked like he was about to leave
killed, "Sleepy brother, let them stop, lest it be worthwhile to cause a murder." ”
Sleepy Jin Shen asked about Wusu's arm again, and after confirming it again and again, he looked at the bastard beggar with a blue nose and swollen eyes, and still felt angry, but he could only stop, "The money is coming, it's enough." Qian Lai and they stopped, and the trapped Jin Shen took a few steps forward and kicked the person with a frightened face on the ground, "If you want to pay attention to the people around your grandfather, you don't want to inquire about the consequences." ”
The people on the ground trembled and begged for mercy, and the sleepy Jin Shen was also tired of looking at it, "Get away, let grandpa see you next time, and take your life directly." ”
The beggar said yes again and again.
After this kind of bad thing, several people lost their interest in shopping, and Duo'er was worried about Wusu's body, "Girl, it's safer to go back and ask a doctor to take a look, so as not to hurt your muscles and bones and not notice it, and it is easy to leave a disaster." ”
Duo'er's face was full of anxiety, and Wusu smiled at her with relief, "I'm also a doctor myself, I can still judge this little injury clearly, it's really fine, don't be surprised." ”
Sleepy Jin Ginseng also smiled and said, "Your girl can't do it, I'm also the one who has opened so many pharmacies, and if something goes wrong, I'll go home a long time ago, so you don't have to be too anxious." ”
