The groom in front of him replied, "My lord, some people beat the woman in the middle of the city, and many people watched, blocking our way. ”

"Oh?"

Yang Hao was curious, opened the sedan curtain, leaned over to look at the street, and saw a short middle-aged man wearing a copper coin pattern robe and a staff hat from a distance of seven or eight feet, who was pulling a young woman's bun and slapping her head and face, so that the woman's head was scattered, her mouth and nose were bleeding, and the situation was indescribably embarrassing.

Yang Hao frowned, seeing that there were many onlookers on the street, but no one stepped forward to persuade him, and said unhappily: "What is this, a big man beats a woman on the street, so many people are watching here, but no one comes forward to persuade him." Bijuku ......"

Bisu understood, nodded to him and slipped off his horse, squeezing into the crowd like loaches. Yang Hao looked at the member from a distance, although he was dressed in a foreign robe, his face was full of meat, two goldfish bubble eyes, thick eyebrows and heavy beard, very fierce, like a butcher who killed pigs.

The young woman, who had been very good-looking, was beaten by him and her hair was unkempt, her face was bruised, and her cheeks were swollen. The man was still unceremoniously slapped hard, while scolding, and his appearance was very bad. It's just that the man's dialect is thick and the speed of speech is urgent, Yang Hao is far away, and he can't hear what he is scolding.

After a while, Bisu got out of the crowd, jumped into the car, spread his hands and said, "My lord, we can't manage it, who can control the concubines taught by the big officials of the people?" ”

Yang Hao asked, "Because of what?" ”

Bi Su said curtly: "I just inquired about the news, this person is called Zheng Chenghe, he is a nouveau riche, and now he specializes in fur business, and sometimes sells some donkeys, mules, cattle and horses......

Yang Hao interrupted: "I'm asking, why did he beat that woman...... beating his own concubines. ”

Bi Su smiled bitterly: "This person is a well-known jealous husband, it is said that even a guard dog is not allowed in the backyard of his house, and there are more than ten concubines and maidservants in the family, but there is the slightest rebellion, either beating or scolding." Just now, when he and the concubine came out of the jewelry store next to him, he staggered with a young man, the young man only smiled politely at his concubine, and did not do anything else, the young woman knew that her official was so jealous, and she didn't dare to look at the young man, she didn't want to be seen by Zheng Daguan, or she was jealous, and she pulled her own concubine over and beat her, this is the case, how can others manage their own family affairs? ”

Yang Hao remembered that his wife was also such a humble woman who was trampled by others and had no identity, and he touched his heart for a while, and he couldn't help but become angry, as soon as he bent down and got out of the car, he wanted to jump out of the car. There was a young man sitting on the left side of the car, named He Jingxiao, who was originally a knife and pen official of a county in the Northern Han Dynasty, and was recruited by Yang Hao to the prefect's yamen. ”

Yang Hao said angrily: "So what? ”

He Jing said with a smile: "My lord, if the people don't raise it, the officials won't be held accountable." What's more, this is a lesson from his own officials to concubines and maids, and the government can't control it. Besides, your lord, you are not the prefect of Fugu, and the more you are the more you are the same, you will inevitably anger the general. Adults are all over the people, and they have big things to do, so what should they do about the private affairs of others? The subordinates thought that it was better not to interfere in such a matter. ”

The autumn wind blew in his face, Yang Hao's consciousness also sobered up, he was stunned for a while, sighed sadly, sat back in the car depressed, and said in a deep voice: "Drive away passers-by and take a detour." ”

Bisu saw that he looked unhappy, and he didn't dare to say much, so he hurriedly signaled the coachman to drive the car to the side of the road, dispersed the onlookers and detoured to the past, and when he walked next to the Zheng official, a young man in a dark shirt suddenly came out of the crowd, grabbed Zheng Chenghe's wrist, stood upside down, and shouted: "Bastard, why do you beat a woman like this?" ”

This young man not only has a crisp voice, but also looks as handsome and charming as a gentle virgin, so when Zheng Chenghe saw him, he couldn't help but sneer, and shouted loudly: "It's you, it's you, that person is you." You dog men and women, I can see that you are not a good match, how about it? What do you think? As soon as I hit this slut here, you couldn't help but jump out. Little whore, you still said that you have never fornicated with anyone, how can he jump out for you, master, I will not kill you on the street today, it is difficult to eliminate the hatred in my heart. ”

Yang Hao looked at the young man in the black shirt, and there was a look of surprise in his eyes, and he lost his voice: "Folded girl? ”

The young man in Xuanyi was Yi Hai's excerpt Yu, listening to Zheng Chenghe's jealous and hateful roar, she was angry and funny, and couldn't help but say disdainfully: "Selfish and jealous, beating women, which woman follows a man like you, it's really bad luck for eight lifetimes." You can show me clearly, this girl is a man or a woman! ”

She straightened her chest, and there was no Adam's apple on her raised neck, and the bud on her chest slightly raised a graceful curve, coupled with her handsome and charming facial features and crisp and pleasant voice, she was clearly a woman in men's clothes.

The people who were watching suddenly realized, and couldn't help laughing, that Zheng Chenghe saw that the other party was actually a woman, Fang Zhi misunderstood his concubine, his face was red, he squeaked for a while, and suddenly became angry again, raised his leg is a kick, kicked the little concubine who was crying with joy, and scolded viciously: "Shameless, can't you see that the person is a woman?" When I saw a little girl in men's clothes, you also laughed for no reason, so prodigal, go back and clean up your little prodigal hooves! ”

After Zheng Daguan finished scolding, he got into his carriage in a gloomy manner, and the young woman who was quite a bit of a posture was kicked to the ground by him without pity, covering her calves and moaning in pain, Zheng Chenghe sat down in the car and shouted angrily: "Why don't you get on the car?" Do you want to embarrass me? ”

The woman did not dare to slack off, but got up quickly, and with tears in her eyes, limped into his carriage, and came timidly to him like a dog beaten by her master. Zheng Chenghe's nostrils were facing the sky, and he kicked the pedal twice with a "tom" under his feet, and the carriage drove forward.

Seeing that the woman was not angry, Zheziyu stomped her foot hatefully, and was about to turn around and leave, when Yang Hao hurriedly shouted, "Folded girl." ”

Jie Ziyu raised his head in response, and when he saw that it was him, his pretty eyes couldn't help but widen, and he showed a happy look in surprise.

In fact, Yang Hao arrived in Fugu City, and he also ate a bowl of closed-door soup from her eldest brother, and Zhen Ziyu already knew about it. She knows her eldest brother's thoughts. She didn't want to use her influence to interfere in this matter.

She knows exactly what Luling Prefecture is doing these days and what the results are. The man she fancies, since he seems to be a fairy who can turn iron into alchemy, Luling Prefecture, which has nothing, and Luling Prefecture, which regards everyone as a dead place, has become a feng shui treasure in the blink of an eye, can't he cope with his eldest brother's means?

Knowing that Yang Hao went back after eating the closed door, he immediately sent invitations to invite the Fugu gentry, and Zhen Ziyu knew that Yang Hao was going to knock on the side and explore the bottom line of the eldest brother. The lover who loves her own family and the eldest brother who is like a father fight the method, bargaining for their own interests, and Hui Huang is like her, so she naturally wants to stay out of the matter. Moreover, this ice and snow smart little woman thinks this is a very interesting thing, she wants to see if her eldest brother is tougher, or he is better, so although she wants to meet Yang Hao, she still temporarily restrains her feelings and hides behind the scenes.

She also knew about Yang Hao's visit to Xiaofan Tower today, but she deliberately stayed out of it. Her ninth uncle has gone to the Central Plains because of the official family's move to cut the domain, and now she has temporarily taken over the ninth uncle, taking charge of the secret spy affairs of the Folding Mansion, these days are also very busy, for the convenience of movement, often travel in men's clothes, but when I want to see him, I can't see him. When I tried to avoid him, I ran into him.

Zhe Ziyu complained bitterly in his heart, but pretended to get into the car happily, and as soon as he approached him, remembering his last impulsive reaction, before he could speak, Zhe Ziyu's face turned red first, and said softly: "I was thinking, I saw the autumn wind rising, but I didn't see you coming." Thinking about it, you're here. ”

Yang Hao reached out and lowered the sedan curtain, and Zhen Ziyu was even more uncomfortable, and his buttocks quietly moved to the side of the seat. Yang Hao took her hand and said affectionately: "I never thought that I would meet you here." I'm still worried, I don't know where to find you. ”

Seeing that he was concerned about herself, she was also happy in her heart, and pursed her lips before she whispered, "I ...... I always miss you......"

After saying this, the two were speechless, Yang Hao held her soft little hand, and the two looked at each other hand in hand, their eyes full of affection. The wheels were rolling, and I don't know how long it took for Jie Ziyu to wake up with an "ah", she withdrew her hand, gently swept the sideburns and hair, and said timidly: "You...... Where is this going? ”

"Oh," Yang Hao said, "I will hold a banquet in Xiaofan Tower to entertain the gentry of Fugu." You...... Come with me. ”

"What?" When he heard this, he was "surprised", and hurriedly waved his hand and said: "I can't help it, I can't help it, you ...... You are now the prefect of Luling, and the banquet is all high-ranking officials and giants in Fugu, I am a little woman, and I ......"

Yang Hao gently held her hand again, and said softly: "Today, the invitations are scattered all over the place, and the Cambodian has already explained that this is a casual banquet, and there is no official business, just to thank the gentry of Fugu for their hospitality when I came last time." The gentry and wealthy can bring their families with them. I know that the northwest is not as good as the Central Plains, and the female dependents can also sit at the same table, what are you afraid of? ”

When Zhen Ziyu heard this, Huo Di raised his head, his eyes showed a look of surprise, the others were bringing the female dependents of the family, what did he take himself to? Although Yang Hao's words were not explicitly stated, he clearly admitted the relationship between them. Could it be that his whole life really fell on him?

Excerpt Yu suddenly remembered what Fu Yaozi said vaguely that day, and Fang suddenly became apprehensive in his heart, predicting some things, which was really not a good thing. Otherwise, there is only joy at the moment, and where will there be gains and losses. What did the old Taoist say, he ...... He had to do something wrong.

The girl was in a state of mind, Yang Hao was silent when she saw her, so she only said that she agreed, and said happily: "It's okay if you agree, let's go." ”

He smiled and looked up and down, and said with a smile: "Although you are wearing men's clothes, you are still beautiful and charming, haha, I want to ...... Your limelight tonight must have overshadowed the beauty of all the officials and gentlemen. ”

The girl secretly complained: "It's bad this time, how many of the officials and gentlemen he invited didn't know my appearance?" This time I went with him, and I was wearing men's clothes, and I was wearing a beggar's outfit, which must have shocked the audience. The eldest brother was trying to give him a dismount, but I followed him in and out of the ......, bitter, bitter, how is this good? ”

Rao is excerpt is full of wisdom, and he has no idea at all at this time. At that time, men and women had to be more reserved about their feelings after all, and they were not more open than in modern times. Even if Yang Hao wanted to ask for marriage, he would only invite a matchmaker to negotiate with her parents, and would not measure her privately. Now inviting her to the banquet is already the most clear confession, if she refuses, will it give Yang Hao a wrong signal and make him mistakenly think that he doesn't want to marry him?

With this worry, Zhen Ziyu didn't dare to refuse rashly, but if he didn't refuse ......, Miss Zhe couldn't help but straighten her eyes: This night's wine banquet, that is really exciting......※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※ Xiaofan Lou was wrapped up by Yang Hao today, and on the wine table under the picture of a hundred birds and phoenixes in the hall, there were already some officials and gentry who arrived first, but the officials and businessmen with higher status were a person who did not arrive, with their identity, of course, there was no master who did not arrive, so they showed up first to lower their prices.

But the few little sons of the Zhe family didn't care about those, the oldest of them was only eighteen years old, they were all lively and active teenagers, how could they have the patience to wait, and they arrived at the place early. Seeing that several sons of the Zhe family had arrived, some officials and businessmen who wanted to confirm the intentions of the Zhefu came over to probe their tone.

At this time, the banquet was not opened, but Xiaofanlou was the first restaurant in Fugu, and it should be natural and thoughtful. Dried fruit preserves, sake and tea have been presented one after another, but the wine is dry, and when he drinks it happily, he said loudly: "You don't need to ask, my father has always been majestic, how can my son go to visit him?" That's why you can't get any out of me. ”

The officials and gentry were suddenly disappointed, and Zhi Haichao smiled and said: "If Luling Prefecture gives up force and specializes in business, then my Fugu might as well share a piece of the pie with him." However, he Yang Hao did not consult my uncle, so he made his own opinion, it was inevitable that he was too blind to no one, and he had to suppress his arrogance. Moreover, let him have a sense of awe, won't our Fugu also get some more benefits? ”

The officials and gentry nodded again and again after hearing this, and still asked cautiously: "Second son, is this...... Is it the heart of the general? ”

Zhi Weixin snorted and said: "Although my father didn't say it explicitly, can't I, as a son, see his intentions?" I went to the banquet today, because I didn't want to break his thoughts about Yang Hao, but I didn't want to staggered this cup, hello and me. In a moment, my uncle Ren will also come to the banquet, and you will know the clue by then. Don't be impatient, just look at my uncle's eyes and act at that time, so that he can know that the officials and gentry of my Fugu are united, and if you want to get the support of my Fugu, are you afraid that he will not give up heavy profits? ”

When the officials and gentry heard him say so clearly, they couldn't help but smile and nodded yes.

At this time, Zhi Weichang happily ran in and said, "Come on, come on, Yang Hao's car has arrived at the entrance of the alley." ”

Zhi Wei was busy saying: "Hurry up, hurry up, each return to its place, each return to its own position, don't mess up your own position first." ”

Those petty officials and businessmen rushed back to their seats one after another, and Zhi Weizheng and the others intended to give Yang Hao another dismount today, so they deliberately sat staggered, and poured all the wine in the cup.

Yang Hao's car drove into the alley, and when he saw that he had arrived at Xiaofan Tower, he was even more panicked, and said in anticipation: "Hao...... Brother Hao, you are an official, and now the banquet is not the officials of Fugu, or the local giant businessmen, I ...... I am just a folk girl, with a humble status, how can I meet the families of the officials and gentry. Again...... Let's talk ...... again."

Two peach blossoms appeared on her face, and she lowered her head and whispered: "Brother Hao, your intentions, Ziyu understands in her heart. But you and I have never ...... I have never had any name in my body, and I went out like this, making people laugh. ”

Yang Hao was called "Brother Hao" by her, and his heart swelled with infinite tenderness, he had already borne a woman who loved him deeply, how could he let this girl who fell in love with him be wronged for him. The scene he saw on the street just now deeply stimulated him, his humble status? Do good women with humble status deserve to be bullied?

He grabbed Zhen Ziyu's wrist and said proudly: "I will worship the next Taoist as a teacher today to learn martial arts." Throughout his life, the teacher acted spontaneously and lived freely. How can I, a disciple, lose my master's face? Naturally, we must also act spontaneously. Ziyu, don't be afraid, if anyone insults you, it will insult me, Yang Hao will no longer allow his women to be bullied and hurt by others. Let's go, let's get off! ”

Zhen Ziyu was trembling by his shout of "my woman", and he couldn't say the words of refusal anymore, and was pulled by him, as if he had taken ** medicine, and obediently got out of the car with him, and the little bird was beside him, and the only thing that kept echoing in his ears was the sentence "my woman...... My woman ...... "was so full of joy and tenderness that she forgot where she was."

Yang Hao got out of the car, and saw a carriage parked next to him, and there was a short and fat and rude man standing next to the car, although he was wearing a man's robe, his bloated body was as ugly as a water tank, and his two little short legs stood next to the car, as if they were not much taller than the wheels.

I only heard him scold in a rough voice to the car: ", master, I wanted to take you out to give your grandfather a long face, look at your face, now you look like a monkey, how can you see people?" ”

Yang Hao took a look, this rammer was the extremely jealous Zheng Cheng and Zheng Daguan he saw on the road, the more Zheng Daguan said, the more angry he became, he rolled up his sleeves, spit on the palm of his hand and was about to get into the car: "Seeing that the time is up, and I can't go back to change someone, grandma's, come and come, let the master slap a few more times, the whole face is red, and I can't see anything unusual." Smack! ”

The little concubine in the car trembled with horror, and hurriedly begged: "Master, please stop fighting." I...... I dressed up a little in the car and put some rouge gouache on it, and I would definitely be able to cover it up. ”

"This guy is also here for the feast? Have I seen him at those feasts? Yang Hao was stunned, and suddenly remembered that there were several banquets where he shirked and did not go, and it was Cheng Dexuan who went to the banquet. This man must have gone at that time, and now he has been invited back according to the original invitation.

Although he looked down on Zheng Chenghe very much, and even hated it, but these people were willing to come to the banquet and attach so much importance to this banquet, it was clear that they had seen the huge business opportunities in Luling Prefecture in the future, and Yang Hao was inconvenient to say anything. He snorted secretly and coldly, glanced at Zheng Chenghe, who looked like a short winter melon, with disdain, and gently took Zhen Ziyu's little hand. Her small palms are slender and her skin is as warm as jade, which is really tireless.

Yang Hao smiled back and said softly, "Ziyu, let's go." ”

"Oh ......" Zheziyu was like an angry little daughter-in-law, and was led by him step by step to the gate of Xiaofanlou, just screaming in his heart: "It's over, it's over, it's dead, I'm going to become the first celebrity in Fugu now......"
