Chapter 31 The Reasons People Like to Believe

Trespassing is something that shouldn't happen, especially at night, and it's almost impossible.

Because in ancient times when the lighting conditions were relatively poor, people had an instinctive fear of the night and objective difficulties in action, and the owner could not judge in advance whether you were going to steal or kill someone, coupled with the traditional concept that the private house was inviolable, so the concept of entering the house at night, either treachery or theft was deeply rooted in the hearts of the people.

Tang Law stipulates: "Those who enter people's homes at night without reason will be flogged forty." The master kills the one when he arrives, don't worry. ”

Coupled with the curfew, it was unthinkable to visit the house at night, and it was impossible for people to enter the house without knocking, so that the two were completely defenseless.

However, Yang Fan was not surprised, the rules are the rules, and when the rules are set, they are broken. Dare to break into his house in a big way, and break the rules of not entering the house at night, which one else can there be besides Maqiao?

But Ma Qiao usually doesn't come to his house easily, this time according to common sense, Ma Qiao should have accompanied his wife at home to do handicrafts, but it was really Ma Qiao who came in.

As soon as Ma Qiao stepped into the door, he saw that the room was tidy, a few cases, two people sitting opposite each other, a man and a woman, and couldn't help but "ouch", nodded and apologized busily: "I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I went to the wrong door......

Ma Qiao retreated as he spoke, retreated to the door, and just withdrew one foot, he had already seen Yang Fan's appearance clearly, and couldn't help but be surprised. He held a clay pot, looked at Yang Fan with his mouth open, and then at Tian Ainu, and stammered: "This ...... This ......, this girl ......"

Yang Fan stretched out his hand, pressed the action of Tianainu's violent desire, and explained to her: "This is my friend. ”

Yang Fan got up, pulled Ma Qiao into the yard, and asked, "Why are you here?" ”

Ma Qiao said: "I don't worry about Xiao Ning, I went to her after I came back, and I heard her say that you didn't go to her to eat noodle soup tonight, Xiao Ning asked me to come and see you." I pondered, I'm afraid that you gave me all the money to deal with the old lady, so ......, I brought half a jar of porridge over, who is that girl? ”

"She's ......"

Yang Fan's eyes rolled wildly, and he said hesitantly: "Oh, she is my cousin, and she came to visit me on purpose." ”

Ma Qiao stroked his forehead with his hand and said, "Brother, can you change a more suitable excuse?" ”

"How?"

Ma Qiao said weakly: "You said that your hometown is in Jiaozhi, and you have no relatives in the Central Plains." Now your cousin is coming to visit you? From Jiaozhi, alone, thousands of miles to Luoyang to visit you? And you're going to hide her at home like a thief and not let people know about it? ”

Yang Fan's face turned red, and he said angrily: "You know it's an excuse and still say it?" Ask so much what to do, and you can treat her as a thief. ”

Ma Qiao held the crockpot and said with a blank face: "Have you ever seen such a beautiful woman as a thief?" ”

Yang Fan said: "It's weird, why can't a beautiful woman be a thief?" ”

Ma Qiao said: "As soon as you enter the Qinglou, you don't have to worry about food and clothing." There are so many paths that a beautiful woman can take, be a thief? Haha, haha, big joke! ”

Yang Fan was afraid that Tian Ainu would be annoyed when he heard this, so he quickly glanced at the door, and said in a low voice: "Hugh has to talk nonsense, let her hear it, and she will not spare you!" ”

Ma Qiao snorted twice to show a sneer, and said, "Look, you're not happy when I say that, aren't you?" Quick move, who the hell is she? ”

"Are you bothered?"

Ma Qiao looked at the door, squeezed his eyes, and whispered, "Are you hode?" ”

Yang Fan's heart moved, this reason ...... It seemed to make sense, so he pretended to groan and said, "Well......"

Ma Qiao said impatiently: "Sure enough, it's you?" Oh my God, such a beautiful girl, tell me quickly, whose girl is this, how did you hook up? ”…,

Yang Fan knew that he would never give up if he gave him a satisfactory answer and satisfied the curiosity of this curious baby, so he followed his train of thought and said slowly: "This girl...... is the daughter of a merchant I met on the Luo River. ”

"Oh?" Ma Qiao held the crockpot in his other hand and pricked up his ears.

Yang Fan said: "Here's the thing, one day, I passed by the Luohe Bridge, she was making the boat pass under the bridge, the two of us fell in love at first sight, came and went, the two were happy, and they made a private engagement for life, but her parents disliked the poor and loved the rich, and they didn't want her to marry a fangding, so ...... She eloped with me......"

Yang Fan made up a very vulgar plot, but the more vulgar the story, the more it is, it is undoubtedly the most satisfying for people's psychology of hunting for the vulgar, so Ma Qiao believes it. He smacked his lips and said with great interest: "Then you two, what are you going to do in the future?" ”

Yang Fan said indifferently: "What else can I do, let her live here, according to our Tang law, as long as the legal marriage age is passed, the man and woman are happy with each other, and the de facto marriage is achieved, it will be recognized, and the parents can't interfere." ”

Ma Qiao pinched his chin and said suspiciously: "No...... right, according to our Tang law, but only when a man is twenty and a woman is fifteen can they get married." You're only seventeen this year, and you're three years away. ”

Yang Fan said: "So, I plan to live like this first, and after three years, not only will the two of us have already become husband and wife, but we don't even know how many babies we have given birth to, can her grandfather and mother object?" ”

Ma Qiao cocked his thumb and praised: "This trick is ruthless enough!" ”

Yang Fan took the opportunity to say to Ma Qiao: "Now her parents are asking about her whereabouts everywhere, so it's good for you to know about this matter, and you must not tell others about it." ”

Ma Qiao nodded again and again: "Of course, of course." Don't worry, I won't tell outsiders about this kind of thing. ”

Yang Fan sighed and asked, "By the way, how is Sister Ning?" ”

Ma Qiao said: "The eldest lady was also very angry when she heard it, she said, it doesn't matter if a man is poor, but if he is so ambitious, then he will really have no interest in his life, the so-called man is afraid of entering the wrong line, and the woman is afraid of marrying the wrong man, if her daughter follows such a man, she will never get ahead in her life, and she will go to the matchmaker in person tomorrow to withdraw from the marriage." ”

Yang Fan said happily: "That's good." ”

The two chatted for a while, Ma Qiao said goodbye and left, Yang Fan had already eaten a small belly, and the porridge was naturally taken back.

Yang Fan flashed into the house, and saw that after Tian Ainu sat on the table, Tingting Ruo Chu Lotus came out of the water, and a pair of bright eyes stared at him interestingly, seeing Yang Fan's heart furious, he couldn't help but secretly wonder: "Why does she look at me like this?" What did we say...... She couldn't have heard it, right? ”

Yang Fan, who was staring at Tianinu, wandered his gaze and didn't dare to look at her, so he raised his chin arrogantly, gently "hummed" from his nose, and said, "I'm sleepy, you clean up these cups and plates!" After saying that, he raised his head and went like a proud peacock.

※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※

The lights went out, the moonlight penetrated through the window lattice, and the water poured into the whole room, and the floor was like a sparse and oblique splash of ink.

Yang Fan went out to "play leaf play and gamble money" again, and this time Tian Ainu naturally wouldn't follow him anymore.

Last time, Yang Fan found the sentence "The Longwu Army sent troops to escort" in the Ministry of War, at that time, the person escorted by this team was the abolished prince Li Xian, and the place was Bazhou, Shuzhong, which had nothing to do with the eight poles of Shaozhou in Lingnan that he wanted to investigate, but this was the only clue he could find.

Tonight, he will continue to check the official documents about the second year of Yongchun that he has not finished reading, and if he can't find any other clues about Long Wujun's business trip to Beijing, he will have to investigate the people who went to Shuzhong Bazhou on business that year. Although the two places are not related, those who go to Bazhou on business may not be able to divert to Shaozhou to do something else.

It was another hard check in the middle of the night, and when the time was almost up, Yang Fan rubbed his red eyes and let out a long sigh. Up to today, he has read all the official letters of the military department in the second year of Yongchun, and in that year, the only record of the Long Wu army leaving Beijing was to escort the deposed prince Li Xian into Bazhou.

It seems that he can only start with this clue.

Yang Fan walked to the window, opened a gap slightly, and glanced at the dark sky with his bloodshot eyes. The heavens and the earth were still vast, but it was already the darkness before dawn, and the dawn was about to appear.

Yang Fan let out a long breath of turbidity, looked back at the piles of cases, and gently rolled down the stairs, throwing himself into the vast night like a nightingale...... P: Ask for recommendation votes to support !!
