Chapter Eighty-Seven: The Wonderful Use of the Champion Lang
After eating, Zhuangyuan and I rode on horses and arrived at Qianjiazhuang and knocked on the door of Qian's carpenter's house. The one who opened the door was a seventeen or eighteen-year-old girl, who looked more iconic than ordinary girls in the countryside, but between her eyebrows, there was a puff of wind and dust! Presumably, this is the woman in the restaurant who said that she is rich and noble!
"Girl......" When the girl saw that she was a living person, she took a step back vigilantly. But as soon as I saw the champion who was following behind me, my eyes suddenly lit up, and I just looked at the champion so stupidly that I forgot to say anything.
I know that Champion Yuan is handsome, but her expression is too exaggerated. I put my hand in front of her eyes and shook it in front of her eyes, and she came back to her senses. "The two are ......"
"Our husband ......" I originally wanted to talk about husband and wife, but as soon as I saw Miss Qian looking at the of Zhuangyuanxun, I immediately changed my mind and said: "Our brother and sister passed by here, and we were thirsty, and I hope that my sister will do well and enjoy saliva and drink." As I spoke, I took out a piece of broken silver from my bosom and stuffed it into Miss Qian's hand.
"Sister is really polite, come in and sit, come in and sit." As he spoke, he took my hand affectionately and walked towards the hall.
I turned around and winked at Zhuangyuan, who shook his head and smiled helplessly, tied the horse to a jujube tree in the yard, and followed him into the house.
As soon as I entered the house, Miss Qian enthusiastically made tea and poured water, I looked around, as if there was no one else in this house, except for Miss Qian, so I opened my mouth and asked, "Is my sister at home alone?" ”
"My mother died early, and my father went to work for a family in Zhou Village, and he didn't come back until a few days later,"
In this way, Miss Qian is the only one in the family. It's good to do this, because it's hard to talk when there are too many people. After a few more pleasantries, I went straight to the point: "I heard that my sister is a noble person from the palace, my sister told my sister what the palace is like!" My sister has a long experience, too. ”
"It's good in the palace, I eat delicacies from the mountains and seas, I wear silk and satin, I live in gold, and I sit with eight big arrogant ......."
The girl said that it was spittle, but I laughed secretly in my heart, you just blow it, I am shrinking and shrinking the degree in the palace, reducing and decreasing, not to mention the delicacies of the mountains and seas, even if it is ten dishes and one soup, it is also the standard for me to eat with my father. It is more shabby than the big families in the capital. I also wanted to eat crabs the day before yesterday, but there was no imperial dining room, so I dreamed about crabs these days.
The girl finally boasted enough, and asked me again: "I don't know where my sister's family lives, where will she go when she goes out this time?" ”
"My sister is from the capital, my father is a jade trader, and there are several shops in the capital. My sister is traveling outside the city with my brother this time, but I don't want to get lost, but fortunately my sister is kind, otherwise my brother and sister don't know what to do? As I spoke, I took a silk handkerchief to wipe away the tears that had not been squeezed out at all.
"My sister's family is engaged in jade trading?" Hearing the word jade, the Qian girl's eyes lit up. Tianyuguo jade mines are scarce, and slightly better jade is worth nothing, and most of the people who do jade trading are wealthy. So I don't feel strange about Miss Qian's expression.
I sighed, pretended to be sorry, and then said: "My sister and I hit it off at first sight, but it's a pity that my sister is a noble person in the palace, otherwise, my sister would have let my brother marry my sister who has just won the door." Enjoy flowers and butterflies with my sister every day. ”
Champion Xun is the youngest champion since the founding of Tianyu, and when he is his age, he has just passed the Xiucai exam at most, and there are a few people who have been admitted to the exam. If I say that the champion was the champion two years ago, I'm afraid she won't believe it.
"Actually......" Miss Qian just said two words, and then braked sharply to swallow back the words behind. But the way she wanted to speak and stopped making me even more sure that my words had moved her.
"If you want to talk about my brother, it is also to have talents, money and wealth. Many daughters and nobles in the city are crying and shouting that they have to marry their brother! But my brother's heart is higher than the sky, but he only looks at his sister differently from others. It's a pity that my sister ...... Ay! I said, my hand was still under the table to push the champion, which meant that he should take the initiative to pull the girl's hand, or look at the girl with affection, who knew that this champion was actually a piece of wood, and he didn't even want to say a word.
I had no choice, I had to work my own, "Sister, will the prince really come to pick you up?" If he forgets his sister, won't his sister have to be a widow for the rest of her life? But with my sister's identity, I can't marry easily......"
"Sister, actually, in fact, ......"
She seemed to have concerns, so I had to add another fire, pretending to dig a silk handkerchief, and accidentally took the money bag and overturned it, and the white silver fell all over the ground, and I only lazily picked up a few large silver ingots, and those broken silver, I didn't even look at them. Make a posture that you don't even bother to pick up the silver when it falls to the ground.
She bit her lips with her teeth, but her eyes were fixed on the silver that I was kicking and playing with. But I still refused to speak, so I played with the jade bracelet on my wrist again, the jade bracelet was the first snow last year, I met Su Chonghua in the cloth village outside the palace, he replaced my broken jade bracelet with this one, I thought it looked good, so I didn't take it off again.
"Sister!" She finally spoke: "Actually, my sister is not the prince's person, if she marries again, no one in the palace will stop her." ”
"How?"
"Actually...... In fact, my sister was abducted by traffickers to Hualou two years ago, and I couldn't resist it, and they couldn't do anything about me, so I sent it back. ”
"Then why did my sister say that she was taken into the palace by the prince?" Isn't it a joke that I entered the flower building and was sent back in good condition? But I don't expose her. lest she be on guard, and it will not be so easy to ask anything.
"They forced me to say that!"
"Sister, do you know, who are they? Why did even the county magistrate deceive him? ”
"The county magistrate is originally in the same group as them."
I really let me guess, I struck while the iron was hot and asked, "Do you know where those girls who were taken away, my sister knows where they were sent?" ”
"The appearance is average, all in the red apricot building in the county seat, and there are a few high-quality ones, I heard that they were sent to the capital. I don't know exactly where it went. ”
"In the county seat?" Aren't they afraid that these girls will meet acquaintances in Hongxing Lou and poke these things out? But after thinking about it, most of the people who visit the brothel of Hualou are rich men and sons, this farmer, he can't go back to the city a few times a year, it is better to weigh a few catties of meat if he has spare money, and the whole family has a good meal, and a few are willing to go to the brothel of Hualou to spoil it? I am willing to go to the flower building and recognize these girls, but who will tell me about going to the flower building.
"It's the people of the Red Apricot Building, pick some good ones and send them out. Or did the traffickers kidnap people and sell those ordinary ones into the Red Apricot Building? Whether the county lord only takes the money, or the whole thing, is the county lord at the helm. ”
"The captives are the officers of the county government! If you are captive, you will be locked up in the county government first, and when there are more people, someone will come to choose, and those who are selected will be taken away, and those who can't be selected will be sold to Hongxing Building. ”
I guessed that the county order was in collusion with the traffickers, but I didn't want to, this county order was actually the mastermind, and let the county government officials take prisoners, what is the difference between what the parents and officials on this side do and the bullies?
"Who is the palace official who sent my sister home?"
"He came to the county government to select people! The county magistrate called him Manager Li, who was a father-in-law. The county magistrate was respectful to him. ”
Mr. Lee? There is indeed a manager surnamed Li in the palace, who is the chief manager of the father Emperor Tianshou Palace, and also the chief manager of the entire palace. I can't wait to follow my father and the emperor every step of the way, if I want to say that he will run to this poor country and kill me, I don't believe it.
Feeling that everything that should be asked was almost done, Zhuangyuan and I said goodbye to Miss Qian. Who knows, she held my hand tightly and didn't speak, she just wouldn't let go. I had no choice but to take off the golden hairpin from my head and give it to her as a token, and promised to propose to her with a matchmaker's bride price in the future. Only then did she let go and reluctantly sent me and Champion out of the door.
On the horse, I half-jokingly said to Champion Yuanxun: "Champion Yuanxun, the charm is not small!" I see that I am fascinated by other people's money girls, and she is obviously talking to me, but her eyes have never left you from beginning to end. ”
Zhuangyuan seemed to be embarrassed by me, and kept his head down, knowing that he was thin-skinned, so he stopped making fun of him.
Two horses galloped side by side on a country road. Suddenly, I heard the sound of horses' hooves getting closer and closer behind me. I wonder if the champion and I are riding a bloody BMW borrowed from Mo Qian. How could any horse catch up with us.
turned around, but saw that the long swords in the hands of several black-clothed people behind him were already unsheathed. I screamed badly, turned back to the men, sat down and commanded, "Stop! ”
The horses stopped, but the men in black jumped up from their horses, swung their swords at us, and I jumped up from my horses, picked up the champions, and flew towards the dense forest by the roadside.
It took a long time to run deep into the dense forest to get rid of the black-clothed people, but Zhuangyuan and I also got lost in the forest. It soon got dark, and we pitched a tent out of branches. There was no fire breaker, so I found a piece of dry wood and learned from the ancients to drill wood to make fire. But in the end, Zhuangyuan Xun had already dealt with the wild exemption by the stream. I didn't light the fire.
"Forget it, you won't die of hunger if you eat less!" I threw the wood aside and simply lay down in the tent to sleep, and when I slept, I didn't feel hungry.
Zhuangyuan Xun didn't give up, he tossed alone for a long time, I persuaded him not to waste his strength, he said he was not tired. I fell asleep in a daze, and when I woke up, I saw that the fire had been lit, and the rabbit on the fire was bubbling with oil.
"Your Highness is awake!" Champion Yuan Yun wrapped a few washed wild fruits in a silk handkerchief and held them in front of me, "Eat some fruits first, the rabbit will be ripe immediately!" ”
"How can you go and pick fruit alone, and what if you encounter a wild beast?" The beast did not dare to come near me, but as soon as he left his side, the beast would attack him. I don't want to wait for me to wake up and see the beast gnawing at the bones.
"Your Highness likes to eat fruits, so I wanted to find some for Your Highness, but I didn't think too much about it......"
"Fool!" I picked the biggest fruit and brought it to his mouth, but he refused at first, but when he saw that I insisted, he opened his mouth and took a bite.
