"No need to apologize. It's us who is abrupt, sorry. Zheng Xiujing hurriedly saluted.

Gao Yang waved his hand and walked towards the tea shed. As he walked, he said, "After an afternoon, I was thirsty and tired." Two bowls of tea. ”

Just now, when Gao Yang saw this child who was studying hard, he remembered the student he was far away in the Jingshi Imperial Palace. For a moment, I felt that the fate of human beings was too wonderful.

There were only two or three guests in the tea shed, Gao Yang found a table to sit down, and Zheng Xiujing soon came to sit next to him.

The tea lady respectfully served two bowls of tea and went to work on her own business. Zheng Xiujing, who was still flushed with a blush on her face, pursed the corners of her mouth, leaned sideways close to Gao Yang's ear, flashed her big smart eyes, and said softly, "This kid is so pitiful, can't you help him?" ”

Gao Yang chuckled a little happily and lowered his gaze slightly: "There are too many poor people in this world. I've been helping them, but I can't help them. ”

Zheng Xiujing pursed the corners of her mouth, glanced at the little boy outside the tea shed and picked up the branch and scratched the surname on the ground. Approaching Gao Yang's ear again, he whispered, "But it's really pitiful." ”

Gao Yang shook his head and chuckled and said, "Okay, I'll take care of the matter." Be careful, so many people are looking at you. ”

Zheng Xiujing looked around and found that several guests in the tea shed were looking at her with strange eyes. Immediately, he retracted his body, lowered his head slightly, and took a sip from the teacup.

Zheng Xiujing's outfit, as long as her eyes are not blind, anyone can see that she is a daughter. Of course, these people look at her not because the two big men are leaning together and talking to each other, but because a beautiful woman like Zheng Xiujing looks even more beautiful and moving after wearing men's clothes.

Do men need a reason to look at beautiful women?

Gao Yang had a natural smile on his face and a peaceful attitude. In my mind, I was talking to the origin.

"A couple of sentry have been following you all afternoon. They would change their eyes every once in a while, and I didn't pay attention at first. But now it's two people staring at you. Well, no malice was detected for the time being. The voice of the origin sounded in Gao Yang's mind.

Gao Yang calmly picked up the tea bowl and took a sip. Secretly said, "Find someone to go over and have a look." If it's a little thief, catch it and send it to Jiangning Mansion. If you have anything else in mind, then ......"

Before Gao Yang's words could be finished, he was interrupted by a rush of footsteps. Gao Yang, who raised his eyebrows slightly, turned his head to the outside of the tea shed, and looked over with a puzzled gaze.

Jiangning Mansion is extremely prosperous, and naturally there are countless three religions and nine streams looking for food here. Among them, gambling stalls are an ancient industry that has been inherited for thousands of years.

As with all dynasties. The gambling stalls in Jiangning Mansion in the Ming Dynasty were also in collusion with the government, and there were officials or powerful and powerful bigwigs behind them to support them. These people are facing ordinary people. That's really going to do anything.

The tea lady of this tea shed is called Liu Siniang, and when she was young, she was also a well-known beautiful woman in the neighborhood. Later, at the age of sixteen, he was betrothed to a local scholar.

Liu Siniang's family background is average, and it is very good to be able to marry a scholar, even if it is a down-and-out scholar. It's just that the scholar surnamed Wang has been studying poetry and books for many years, and he has always been just a child when he takes the exam year after year!

He is over 30 years old and is still just a child.

The vast majority of scholars in this era do not know how to do anything but read. They are the ones who are powerless. The shoulders can't resist, and the hands can't lift. It's just a waste that has been taken out of production. And if it was just a child, it would not be relieved by the imperial court. The size of this family is all maintained by Liu Siniang alone.

If only that were it. Study hard, and then take the exam in the future, and maybe it's not impossible to be admitted to Xiucai when you can. It's just that the boy surnamed Wang was born after a former classmate and friend successfully passed the township examination and became a lifter. Immediately, he was completely hopeless about his future.

Since then, this boy surnamed Wang, who is in his thirties, began to get drunk wantonly, and even became addicted to gambling under the seduction of someone with a heart!

Everything in the house has been sold in its entirety.

Furniture, books, and even Liu Siniang's dowry were not spared. After that, even the houses that had been passed down for generations were sold. The boy surnamed Wang seemed to have lived in a casino all the year round, and he never saw his wife and children again after selling the house.

Liu Siniang, who washed her face with tears all day long, had to take her six- or seven-year-old child to survive in this tea shed that made a living. And then. Until today, he was approached.

"Liu Siniang." A sharp-beaked monkey with gill and triangular eyes and a hooked nose. The thin man who walked with his head shaking his head, his eyes wandering, and a sneering smile on the corner of his mouth came to the tea lady with several open-chested followers. Squinting his eyes and shouting.

This dress, this tone, such a follower, and the opportunity to appear in front of Gao Yang. This is completely the trick that appeared in film and television dramas and sent to the door to slap the protagonist in the face and stomp on it!

Liu Siniang obviously knew the person in front of her. After seeing this thin man, his expression suddenly changed drastically and he hugged the child who ran over in a hurry in his arms. His face was pale, his lips trembled, and he said, "Shopkeeper Zhao, what kind of wind blew you here today?" ”

"Hey, hey." Shopkeeper Zhao narrowed his narrow eyes and snorted coldly: "When will the money owed to me by your father-in-law be repaid?" ”

"Please also ask the shopkeeper Zhao to give him a little more time. I'll ...... in a few days," Liu Siniang's words were interrupted before she finished speaking. "No need!" Shopkeeper Zhao sneered and took out a note from his arms. said with a smile: "Your father-in-law has just lost you to me at the gambling table!" You don't have to pay back the money he owes me! ”

Shopkeeper Zhao's words were like a thunderbolt from the sky, and Liu Siniang's face turned pale, and she looked at the note in Zhao's shopkeeper's hand with disbelief!

Black and white. Sign and draw!

Although she didn't know how to read, Liu Siniang's intuition told her that it was true! Her father-in-law really did such a thing!

"Come on." Shopkeeper Zhao smiled proudly and beckoned his subordinates, "Grab it and send it to the painting boat tonight." No matter how you say it, it's worth a few taels of silver! ”

Several malevolent-looking followers immediately rolled up their sleeves and strode forward to grab the silver.

"It's time." Gao Yang raised his eyebrows, hooked the corners of his mouth, and a faint smile flashed in his eyes. This kind of scene in front of me is too joyful, just like when I was making a movie. It's time for him, the leading actor, to appear and shock everyone and start slapping his face.

"Hakima!" Before Gao Yang could stand up, a azure figure rushed out, "You are human traffickers!" It's against the law! ”

The person who rushed out was naturally Zheng Xiujing. In a hurry, she also shouted out a sentence in Korean.

"Yo he~~~" The shopkeeper Zhao, who was thin and thin, suddenly looked at Zheng Xiujing with bright eyes. There was greed in his eyes.

With his eyes, of course, he can see that Zheng Xiujing is a great beauty dressed as a man. At this moment, his eyes were full of surprise and surprise when he walked down the road and picked up the silver. Quickly began to babble.

"This little lady." Shopkeeper Zhao's long and narrow triangular eyes almost narrowed into a slit, rubbing his hands and shaking the note. said with a smile, "This is black and white, signed and drawn." This is the royal law. ”

"Not anymore." A majestic voice sounded, leaving everyone stunned. Of course, Gao Yang came out.

came to stand beside Zheng Xiujing, stretched out his hand to wrap his arm around her shoulder, and showed a reassuring smile. Turning his head to look at the shopkeeper Zhao, he said indifferently, "I said, this thing is not the royal law now." ”

"Yo he~~~" looked at Gao Yang, who was tall, with a beautiful jade pendant hanging on his waist, and extremely luxurious clothes on his body. Shopkeeper Zhao's heart was beating slightly. This is certainly not an ordinary person, looking at the dress and demeanor and tone, it must be either rich or expensive. It's just that he remembered his backstage, and suddenly his weak waist stiffened again.

"Who are you? The breath is as big as a toad? What you said is that the king's law is not successful? Shopkeeper Zhao shouted.

Gao Yang shook his head slightly and stopped looking at him. Because the guards who were secretly following not far away had already surrounded them, and in the blink of an eye, they all pressed them to the ground.

"Let go of me! Let me go!! I'm the second housekeeper of the Wei State Mansion! Be careful not to eat and walk around! Zhao's shopkeeper's face was pressed to the ground to eat soil, and he was still sparing no effort to pull people into the water.

"Poof!" A bang. Not far away, on the riverbank, a rickety young man suddenly fell into the river.

This young man was sent by Wei Guogong to follow Gao Yang and obey his orders. After all, he is a local snake, and if there is any emergency, he can come forward to settle it, and he can't cause trouble to Gao Yang.

Coincidentally, this young man happened to be the youngest son of the second housekeeper in the Wei State Mansion. I just heard that the shopkeeper Zhao didn't forget to drag his father into the water when he was unlucky, and he actually left a reputation in front of the national teacher. Immediately, his legs and feet were frightened, and he fell into the Qinhuai River all of a sudden.

"Do you still want to be with your husband?" Gao Yang didn't even glance at the river, turned to Liu Siniang, who was stunned and didn't know the situation, and asked.

"......" Liu Siniang, who was shocked, was speechless at all at the moment.

"Don't arrest my father." On the contrary, the child, who was only six or seven years old, begged for mercy for his father: "Although my father is a good gambler, he still does this kind of thing." But there is a reason for it. Please give my father a chance to mend his ways. After speaking, he bowed to Gao Yang.

"Yo? Not bad? Gao Yang looked at the child in front of him with some surprise. How big is that? So shrewd? What if you grow up?

"Please let my husband go!" Liu Siniang quickly reacted and hurriedly saluted and begged Gao Yang.

"Why?" Zheng Xiujing asked with incomprehension, "He wants to sell you like a commodity!" Why would you still intercede for him?! ”

Zheng Xiujing, who received a feminist education in modern time and space, was completely unable to understand what she saw. This is completely without even the right to be a human being! (To be continued)
