Anyi Fang is close to Dongshi and is in the prosperous area of Chang'an, although it is late, it still has not stopped. When Xue Chongxun and his party walked from South Street, he really had the illusion of being in a modern city. But as soon as the team entered the North Street, the hustle and bustle seemed to disappear in an instant, there were many powerful relatives living here, the lanterns illuminated the Zhumen family bright and brilliant, the Hao slaves at the door were brightly dressed, talking and walking are clear-eyed, ordinary people generally do not come here.

Xue Chongxun's Mi Zhai is diagonally opposite the door of the Weiguo Mansion, it is a small courtyard, which used to be lived by a large family guest or the like, Xue Chongxun asked the housekeeper to buy it and renovated it into a separate courtyard for his own pastime.

"Take off the veil and I'll see." After entering the Misty Zhai, Xue Chongxun remembered the woman he had just saved, and while he had time to recreation now, he could interrogate her origin on the side, otherwise there would be tomorrow's affairs...... However, when I heard this woman's voice before, it was still very hoarse, and if it was too eye-catching, wouldn't it be depressing to go in together?

The woman was stunned, and then obediently removed the black veil from her face, but covered her brow with the palm of her hand. The lantern under the eaves hung so high that her eyes were hidden in the shadow of her palms, and she could not see very clearly, except for a thin lip and a pointed chin.

The most striking thing is her skin, white, really white, but the bloodless paper-like white, not necessarily smooth.

"It's too bright, I'm not used to it." The woman's voice was as low as ever.

Xue Chongxun didn't say much, and nodded: "You go in with me...... Tell the slave maid to prepare the contents of the hut. ”

Fang Yuzhong gently reminded: "Lang Jun, it is inconvenient for the brothers to go in. What he meant was to let this unknown woman and Xue Chongxun be alone, and there would be potential safety hazards.

Xue Chongxun smiled disapprerovingly, didn't say much, waved his hand at them, and then walked straight to a wooden house in front of the small courtyard, and said without looking back: "You come with me." ”

The woman looked left and right, and the guards were all standing still, so she took two quick steps and followed Xue Chongxun. The two entered the wooden house, and after closing the door, they saw that this wooden house was very small, there were no windows, and the furnishings were very simple, only two beds with leather and a large palmetto wood case, and there was a big black stone on the floor next to the bed, and a bucket full of water was placed next to the big stone. Nothing else.

After a while, a slave maid with a two-ring head came up with a pot of tea and put it on the big case, and then bent his knees and lowered his eyebrows and said, "Lang Jun wait, the slaves and maids are on fire below." ”

Xue Chongxun lifted the teapot and poured two cups of tea, picked up one cup and drank it all, "It's not tea." Drink more water first, otherwise it will not be good for your health to drink water later. ”

The woman in black said, "Thank you, I'm not thirsty." ”

The room slowly became a little warmer, and the woman in black looked at the black stone next to her twice, obviously feeling the heat coming from the stone.

"Today I saved you, but we don't know each other in our lives, now you tell me what came from, who chased you, why did you chase you. You know, don't lie, because I'll find out soon. ”

The woman in black was silent for a while, her eyelashes were long, and her eyes were dark and deep, reminiscent of endless nights.

"I don't have a surname, others gave me the title 'Nu Wuchang', and my brothers from the same clan generally call me Sanniang, because I am the third orphan to enter Yuwen's family."

"Yuwen family?" Xue Chongxun immediately became interested, and the hand holding the scoop also paused, and then poured half a scoop of water on the black-red stone, and immediately "snorted" and raised a large puff of white smoke.

"It's Yu Wenxiao, who is now serving as a member of the household department, and he is the one who talked to Engong in the ancient temple alley just now. Lang Jun is an official, maybe you know him too? ”

Xue Chongxun nodded and said, "Yes, there have been one or two sides. "Yuwen Xiao is not very familiar to him, but his daughter Yuwen Ji is an acquaintance. He couldn't help but ask the question he wanted to know: "It seems that the Yuwen family has an unknown side, you first tell me what kind of person Yuwen Xiao is." ”

Sanniang said: "Yuwen Xiao's lineage was originally a merchant who transported tea, he was the second son of the Yuwen family, because he failed to inherit the family property, he was depressed for a while. Later, he searched for and abducted some orphans, and when he was a teenager, he worked hard for him to do shady things. ”

When Sanniang said this, a trace of bitterness flashed in her eyes: "In the past, we never kept these things secret, and we didn't say anything until we died, but the second brother was caught, and in order to keep his mouth shut to protect everyone, I don't know how painful it was to die...... However, now that Yuwen Xiao wants to kill his mouth, he is ruthless, what righteousness do I have to talk about? ”

Xue Chongxun listened to her silently, and did not interject lightly, but only cared about pouring water on the stone, and poured it when it was red. The cabin was already filled with white smoke like a dream, and the temperature was rising.

"He pretended to be an inconspicuous little tea merchant, but in fact he secretly and brutally blackmailed the merchants along the canal, and if anyone dared to resist, we would assassinate him! Yuwen Xiao used this as a means to make huge profits, and finally aroused the anger of the eight major merchant gangs in Bianqu, and jointly investigated the matter. ”

Xue Chongxun nodded. The year before and last year, there was a great drought in the Guannai, Chang'an rice was expensive, and the central government's various materials were becoming more and more tense, but last year Empress Wei was unwilling to leave Chang'an, and this year Emperor Li Dan and Prince Li Longji were going to confront Princess Taiping in Chang'an, and it was impossible to go to Luoyang, so Chang'an's consumption was more dependent on the supply of materials from the south, so the imperial court attached great importance to river transportation.

"The situation is already very dangerous for us, the second brother fell into a trap and was arrested, and Yuwen Xiao was ready to stop. He spent a lot of money to get acquainted with Feng Yuanjun, the Shaoqing of Taichang Temple, and it happened that Feng Yuanjun fell in love with his daughter Yuwen Ji again, Feng Yuanjun passed the eunuch Gao Lishi, and actually obtained an official position for Yuwen Xiao. Now he was whitewashed and didn't want to turn back, but those of us who worked for him knew too much, so he was poisoned one by one, and the fourth brother warned before he died, so I escaped, not to be rescued by the father-in-law, and I was already dead without a place to be buried......"

The temperature in the room was already very high, and both of them were already sweating profusely, and in the white mist, Xue Chongxun took off his clothes, wrapped a towel around his waist, and then sat comfortably on the Hu bed, closing his eyes and thinking about something.

"Ding" a teacup sounded softly, Sanniang touched the teacup, and said in a low voice: "I'm a little thirsty, I'll drink saliva." ”

Xue Chongxun opened his eyes, only to see that she was soaked with sweat, her hair was wet on her forehead and face, she looked a little wolf, and her wet clothes were also tightly attached to her body, but it was difficult to take them off, so that the outline of her body was completely presented in front of Xue Chongxun's eyes.

is not as fat and plump as many Chang'an ladies, Sanniang's figure is very slender, so that she looks a little thin, but with the aesthetics in Xue Chongxun's memories of her previous life, she still does not lack women's unique graceful curves, her waist is flexible and slender, and although her breasts are not big, because of her wet clothes, she exposes the outline of the inverted bowl, and the two-point shape that rises in the middle of the two inverted bowls, which has a unique charm.

"I didn't ask you to drink some water beforehand, but now it's not good for your body." Xue Chongxun said lightly.

"It doesn't matter, we go out day and night, like ghosts, and we can't take care of our health."

Xue Chongxun said again: "What are your plans now?" ”

Sanniang said without hesitation: "But by grace, I know my grievances." ”

A smile appeared at the corner of Xue Chongxun's mouth, and he said indulgently: "Whether it is Yuwenxiao or Feng Yuanjun, they are all small fish and shrimp in my eyes, and I am not afraid of him if I save you, it is a trivial matter, but it is just a good mood for a while, you don't have to worry about it, if you have other plans, I will not force you." ”

Sanniang's eyes actually showed a sadness: "I have been doing things for the Yuwen family since I was a child, I can only kill people, I don't have any friends and livelihoods outside, I don't know where to stay, if Lang Jun doesn't dislike it, leave me in the house to be a slave...... My brothers and sisters love to eat the dishes I make, I don't know if it suits Langjun's taste, maybe I can be a chef? ”

It's a waste of resources to use her as a cook, Xue Chongxun thought. According to the experience of the society in the previous life, the society is progressing and the productivity is improving, in fact, in the final analysis, it is just the use of resources in the environment, whether it is burning firewood in the Tang Dynasty or burning minerals in the future, it is just a matter of how to use resources.

Xue Chongxun said: "Does Yuwen Ji know about his father? ”

Sanniang said with some self-deprecation: "Yuwen Xiao usually says that he treats us as his own children, but in fact, there is a big difference, and his family will not be involved...... However, Yuwen Ji knows about our existence, and she should also vaguely know that her father is doing something unseemly. ”

Xue Chongxun said: "Hate? Want to avenge your brother and sister? ”

At this time, Sanniang showed a sense of vicissitudes that did not match her age, shook her head and said dejectedly: "This is all fate, after taking this road of no return, it is useless to hate, and there is no way to talk about hatred." I have a luxury, I want to live an ordinary life...... It's a real luxury for me. ”

Xue Chongxun's heart was a little sad at this time, and he felt that he was too indifferent. Why did you have such an idea of a woman's kindness? Maybe it was the memory of his previous life that made him realize the warm side of people?

He reminded himself: There is no warmth in this world, only deceit, and unscrupulous means for interests, power, security, and wealth! As long as you are soft-hearted, as long as you are not strong enough, you will be like your father, let the mermaid meat, be beaten all over the body by your mother-in-law, and starve to death!

Xue Chongxun exhaled and said in a completely different tone: "Your life is saved by me, as long as you treat yourself as my person, I will take care of you as if you were my own...... But I can also ruin you at any time. ”
