In the back garden of the Wang family, Gongsun Lan and Li Xin'er listened to Wang Yuan's account of today's events with their mouths open in a daze, and the faces of the master and apprentice were very embarrassed, especially Gongsun Lan, whose brows were furrowed and her expression was very displeased.

"No wonder I saw Da Hei in the front yard just now, squatting in the corner of the yard on a hot day and crying, and asked Huang Sange, Huang San said that he didn't know either, and thought he was reprimanded by you or homesick. But it turns out that you forced him to do such a thing. Li Xin'er said suddenly.

Wang Yuan smiled and said, "Da Hei is crying? Crying after taking advantage? This kid got kicked in the head by a donkey. Could it be that he lost his body as a child and secretly felt sad? ”

Gongsun Lan frowned and said: "Erlang, you are doing such nonsense, and you are not afraid of retribution in the future, if you don't want to, you don't want to, why let a black slave go and do it with Mrs. Yuguo...... If you can get the word out, will you still be able to get your footing? ”

Wang Yuan said embarrassedly: "It's really a bit nonsense, but I can't help it." The adulteress told me to go to her house, and I could not disobey. Do you think she called me to have tea and talk? I had to do nothing to get out. Anyway, the woman was just trying to be fresh, and she covered her face, thinking that I had done it with her, so that I could stabilize her and I could get out of it, wouldn't it? ”

Li Xin'er smiled and said, "Erlang did the right thing, I don't think it's anything?" Mrs. Yu Guo is famous for her lewdness, and some people say that she even gets into bed with the servants of the house. Is it messy? Even if she knew that it was Da Hei's doing, she didn't care. ”

Gongsun Lan reprimanded: "What are these words, you don't know my Datang's taboos." If you do such a thing, you will harm others and yourself, and you will still help him speak. ”

Wang Yuan realized that Gongsun Lan seemed to be really angry, and hurriedly asked, "Cousin, don't be annoyed, what's the taboo?" I really don't know. ”

Gongsun Lan frowned and said, "You really don't know? ”

Wang Yuan said: "Is that still fake?" I don't know where the taboo was committed. ”

Gongsun Lan saw that Wang Yuan didn't look like he was pretending, so he said something in a hurry.

It turned out that the Tang Dynasty had its own Kunlun slaves in the Western Regions, and many appalling things happened after the trafficking. Most of the Kunlun slaves were gifted with huge utensils, and the open atmosphere of the Tang Dynasty gave birth to a large number of hedonistic noble women. In the early years, there was a woman in a wealthy family in Chang'an who couldn't bear the loneliness and had an affair with the black slaves in the family, and gave birth to a child whose complexion was half black and half white, which was very weird, and was rumored to be a scandal in Beijing.

After the incident was exposed, it caused public outrage among the people, and the imperial court also attached great importance to it. During the reign of Empress Wu, a large-scale investigation was carried out in Chang'an on the families of black slaves, and more than ten scandals of the master's mother fornicating with black slaves were found. In the end, not only the black slaves were killed, but also the women in the house, whether they were stained or not, were given to die as an example, which was a huge scandal that caused a sensation.

Since then, the imperial court has established many rules for the purchase of black slaves, and the large families with black slaves in their families have also taken this matter very seriously. One of them is that if a slave is sold to a woman's house, he must be cleansed, otherwise he is not allowed to buy or sell. Since then, most of the Kunlun slaves in the Western Regions who were sold have had to accept the fate of purification. It was only in recent years that this rule was eased, and many Kunlun slaves were able to preserve their physical integrity.

But even so, all families have a customary rule: black slaves are not allowed to marry Tang women, and black slaves are not allowed to enter and leave the fireworks venue. The Kunlun slaves in the house are not allowed to enter the inner courtyard after the second entry, and when they see the female dependents, they need to avoid it, they are not allowed to look up, they are not allowed to talk to each other, etc., once these taboos are violated, the owner of the Kunlun slave and the black slave itself must be severely punished.

Kunlun slaves are equivalent to expensive animals, in addition to bringing them with them to put on a show, they are also the best and most loyal coolies. But in the eyes of the Datang people, in addition, Kunlun Nu is just an alternative, or the most lowly kind of person, no one wants to accept a black slave and a Datang woman having an affair, which will be regarded as an insult to the Tang Dynasty.

And Wang Yuan's move is not only a big taboo, but also a big taboo, and he actually let his black slaves engage in the noble lady of the Tang Dynasty. Although this lady of the country is erosive and lewd. Dang, but even if he has an affair with the beggars on the street, he can't have an affair with Kunlun Nu. If this matter spreads, Wang Yuan will be unlucky, and he will easily be placed on a major crime of insulting the country. On the one hand, Gongsun Lan couldn't accept that Wang Yuan connived at black slaves to do such a thing, but also out of self-esteem as a person in the Tang Dynasty. On the other hand, he was also quite dissatisfied with Wang Yuan's approach, thinking that Wang Yuan acted unscrupulously, so he was displeased.

Wang Yuan listened to Gongsun Lan's words with a dull gaze, and then realized what a ridiculous thing he had done, he originally asked Wang Dahei to replace him, on the one hand, to get out, and on the other hand, he did have the intention of humiliating Mrs. Qiuguo, but he didn't expect this humiliation to touch the bottom line of the Tang Dynasty.

"It turns out that there are such taboos, but I don't know at all, if I had known, I wouldn't have done this." Wang Yuan said in a daze.

"Sometimes I don't think you even look like a person from Datang, you don't know a lot of things, but you are deliberately pretending to be stupid and fooling me." Gongsun Lan frowned.

Wang Yuan was speechless, and was about to explain, but Gongsun Lan had already gotten up and ignored him and walked away. Wang Yuan scratched his head and was stunned, Li Xin'er was also helpless, seeing Wang Yuan's depressed expression, he stepped forward to comfort with a smile.

"Although the master is not happy, I still think that this thing is well done, even if we commit a big taboo, we can't touch the body of that adulteress, wouldn't it be self-ruining our reputation? Erlang, slave supports you. ”

Wang Yuan smiled bitterly: "You still support me when you do something wrong, and you have no principles." Knowing this, I might as well get on the horse and satisfy the adulteress, and save my cousin from being unhappy. ”

Li Xin'er snorted and said, "You dare! If you touch her body, you won't touch us again. I see that you are greedy, and there are so many beautiful wives and concubines in the family, are you still not satisfied? Are you men so cheap? The more obscene and degrading the woman, the more you want to taste it. ”

Wang Yuan scratched his head and said: "The conscience of heaven and earth, there is this idea there. Besides, where do I have many beautiful wives and concubines? Who else am I but you? ”

Li Xin'er bared her teeth and said, "Don't pretend, what did you do with Miss Lan last night?" When I sent her back to the room, I saw the blood stains on Miss Lan's body, did you break her body last night? You can't excuse me, I'm not a fool. Actually, I'm not that jealous, but why are you doing it secretly? Since she lives at home, I know that there will be such a day, I don't disagree with you marrying her as a concubine, as long as it is an innocent daughter's family, I will not object, as long as you like it, ten or eight will be done. ”

Wang Yuan was stunned and said, "Didn't you test me, did you really change your temperament?" When did you become so virtuous? ”

Li Xin'er said angrily: "The man's three wives and four concubines are not a big deal, it would be a lie to say that I am not jealous, but even if I care, what can I do?" What the master said is, if I make a fuss, I will dislike you, and I will simply obey your wishes. In the future, if you have anything you like, as long as you are innocent and soft-tempered, I will allow you, and you will be happy. ”

Wang Yuan stretched out his hand and put his arm around her waist, hugged and kissed her on the lips and said: "You are so virtuous, I am a little ashamed, you and I are a husband and wife in distress, you will always be my virtuous wife, and no one can replace you." ”

"With your words, that's pretty much it." Li Xin'er hugged Wang Yuan's head and kissed it.

Wang Yuan gently stroked her body and said, "You are suddenly so well-behaved, I decided to give you a reward." ”

"What reward?" Li Xin'er asked with a smile.

"I won't tell you the truth, I was a little too angry by that adulteress in Mrs. Qiu's mansion just now, and I want you to have fun with me after dinner. Do you remember the easy chair you brought home from the Taoist temple? It's all in good condition, how about we try it on that chair tonight? ”

Li Xin'er's face was flushed, she scolded, jumped up and said, "You are becoming more and more disrespectful, go and accompany the master, don't you go, the master was really angry just now." With that, he walked away.

Wang Yuan stood up and looked around for Gongsun Lan, but there was no figure of her in the house. After thinking about it, he took the sword of practice and walked out of the house and walked to the grass on the east side of the house.

Wang Yuan suddenly realized that he hadn't come out to practice in the evening for a long time, and since he came back from his trip to Beihai, he had been busy with various affairs, and with the hot weather, Wang Yuan also became very lazy, and Gongsun Lan didn't say anything after reminding him a few times.

The sunset is full of golden light, gilding the heavens and the earth with a layer of gold. The evening breeze was light, and although there was some heat, it was comfortable. As soon as Wang Yuan walked down the slope, he saw the back of Gongsun Lan standing on the grass below the slope. The setting sun shone on her delicate and beautiful back, shining the moon-white practice clothes with a faint gold, and the silver light on the bun was shining, which was a hairpin shining. The wind blows, the hair flies, the clothes flutter like immortals, and the long sword in his hand is jumping like a flame.

It looked like she was standing there thinking about something, Wang Yuan didn't want to disturb her thoughts, so he slowly approached with a light foot. As soon as he arrived more than ten steps behind Gongsun Lan, he suddenly heard Gongsun Lanjiao's voice, his body twisted lightly, jumped into the air, and a sword sneered towards Wang Yuan's face door, and instantly arrived at the face door.

Wang Yuan exclaimed, "Cousin, it's me." ”

Gongsun Lanjiao shouted: "Draw your sword!" ”

Wang Yuan hurriedly pulled out the long sword in his hand, and he was able to parry this move before Gongsun Lan's long sword stabbed. Obviously, Gongsun Lan only used three or two percent of his strength on the sword, and Wang Yuan realized this when the two swords touched each other, otherwise he would not be able to block this sword.

But the attack did not stop, and the long sword in Gongsun Lan's hand left as soon as it was touched, and it turned into a little golden light, and attacked again. Wang Yuan was in a hurry, retreating and retreating, while struggling to parry. When the number passed, sparks flew around. Wang Yuan's wrist was numb for a while, obviously Gongsun Lan had increased his strength, these swords were not only fast but also much more powerful.

The attack continued, Gongsun Lan's body had just landed at this time, and she jumped up again on tiptoes, and in the sound of her clothes tearing in the air, the long sword stabbed straight in, and went straight to Wang Yuan's throat with a fierce wind. Wang Yuan knew the power of this move, and the power of this sword was already extremely strong, so he retreated to dodge this attack. But Gongsun Lan followed him like a shadow, and the tip of the sword was half a foot away from Wang Yuan's throat like a maggot on the tarsal bone, no matter how Wang Yuan retreated, he couldn't get rid of it, and it was fierce, getting closer and closer.

Wang Yuan had no choice but to raise his sword to block, but when he heard the sound of 'dang', Wang Yuan's hand was empty, and the long sword flew into the air. After a slight delay, the tip of the opponent's sword was already close to his throat, and his skin could already feel a wisp of cold air on the tip of the sword. The next moment is the throat piercing.

Wang Yuan changed color and shouted: "Cousin! ”

Gongsun Lanjiao screamed, her body flickered and her wrists shook slightly, and the sound of clanging was endless, and then she saw that the long sword in her hand was broken inch by inch, and only the hilt of the sword remained.
