Chapter 66: In the Name of the Prime Minister
Finally arrived in Qianyang, Su Xiaoluo slept in the post house for most of the day before getting up, freshened up and asked a few maids who would like to go out to hang out with her.
The few maids who came with them all wanted to go to the street, and Su Xiaoluo asked them all to prepare: "What about my father?" ”
"The master went out and said that he would come back at dinner." Tinker Bell replies.
Dad, where is he going out with himself! This is not giving up to ask around about the whereabouts of my mother! After six years of leaving, there was no news, and Su Xiaoluo said that either he was no longer there, or he didn't want to have any contact with this side anymore, and he had already lived a new life, so there was no need to look for it anymore.
"Tinker Bell, help me think of some more silver for my dad if he goes out again tomorrow." It's better to go to a teahouse or restaurant on the street, where people come and go, and there may be an unexpected gain!
"Zhiyun, you go to the county office tomorrow to say hello, and ask them to send someone to take me around the field where the grain is grown, and we will go to the street to find a bookstore in a while, I want to buy a few agricultural books and travelogues, it would be better if there were Qianyang Gazetteers."
A few maids surrounded Su Xiaoluo on the street, and the red fox had already slipped out of the back door of the post house, and it was going to go to the mountains of Qianyang to see what rare animals and plants were here.
Su Xiaoluo has high hopes for it, in case he finds seeds that can be transplanted in the mountains!
After walking a short distance on the street, I saw two stores selling candied fruits, Su Xiaoluo took a few maids in and bought some candied fruits according to their respective tastes, and the five of them chatted while eating and inquiring about what specialties, food and landscapes Qianyang had.
It's not easy to go out of the house, you must taste all the local food, visit the local places of interest to go home, it's not easy to go out in ancient times, and I don't know when I will have the opportunity to go out next time! When Su Xiaoluo came, he planned it, and the investigation and tourism were correct, and they had to be carried out together.
Qianyang is located on the main traffic road, there are many merchants coming and going, the economy is prosperous, and the people's life is much better than that of Daxing County.
There are also many shops on the street, and you can see all the conceivable business here, and there are people on street corners and alleys who carry the burden of selling wontons and cooking cakes.
"I decided, I will not marry in this life, work hard to save money, and when I have saved enough money, I will come out to play, eat all the food in the world, and see the beautiful scenery in the world!" Su Xiaoluo patted his chest and made a grand wish.
"Girl, are you telling the truth? I also have such a wish, not to marry someone to live, so comfortable and comfortable, than to go to a strange place, see other people's faces to live. Zhiyun grabbed Su Xiaoluo's arm, confidant!
"This ...... I'm afraid not! Listening to the rain and Yingyue said after coming back to their senses from Su Xiaoluo's bold words.
They didn't dare to think about this kind of situation that Su Xiaoluo said, but they yearned for it in their hearts, if they had the right to choose, they also wanted to live a free life.
"Any of you who want to come to me on a day like that to sign up, and when we save enough money, we will start touring the mountains and rivers!" Su Xiaoluo laughed.
"General Zheng is out, hide!" I don't know who shouted in the street, whether it was a stall or a loitering person, they fled in all directions after hearing this.
After a while, the people on Kung Fu Street were almost scattered, only Su Xiaoluo, who couldn't figure out the situation, was still standing there with a few maids, which looked particularly abrupt.
"You're not locals, are you?" A calm, powerful, neutral voice rang out in the empty street, followed by a stumble of footsteps.
Hearing the footsteps, Su Xiaoluo thought that the two brown bears were coming!
Two teams of saber guards opened the way in front, and in the middle was a burly man with a body shaking as he walked...... Woman!
If it weren't for the jewelry on the other party's head and skirt, Su Xiaoluo really wouldn't dare to determine her gender.
Listening to the rain, Yingyue and Zhiyun surrounded Su Xiaoluo and Tinker Bell in the middle, and the three of them showed their weapons at the same time.
"I'll just say you're not locals! Seeing me, Zheng Jiugu didn't flee quickly, and there were really few people who dared to show their weapons. ”
"We're just passing by, we don't understand the rules of Qianyang, and we don't know your name, how offended, please don't be surprised!" Su Xiaoluo held down the guy in Tingyu and Yingyue's hands, and wanted to discuss with Zheng Jiugu.
"This guy is so good-looking, take me back to the house." Zheng Jiugu's eyes widened when she saw Su Xiaoluo, just like a hungry wolf seeing its prey.
"Miss Zheng, Xiaosheng has already made a marriage, this time I came out to purchase marriage supplies, please let Xiaosheng go!" Su Xiaoluo said.
"You can withdraw from the marriage, even if you get married, I don't mind, just let your daughter-in-law remarry, now I declare, you are the twenty-eighth husband of my Zheng Jiugu."
Su Xiaoluo's eyes turned and asked, "Dare to ask the girl, where are the twenty-seven husbands in front of you now?" "Has it been squeezed out of the essence and blood, and made flower fertilizer?
"Some ran away, some were disabled, and some were kicked out of the General's Mansion after I got tired of it, and now there are still five people in the mansion, no, there will be six soon." Zheng Jiugu looked at Su Xiaoluo and said.
"The girl is mighty! Xiaosheng felt very honored to be selected by the girl to be the twenty-eighth husband, but ...... Getting married is a big deal, and I have to wait for my parents to decide, don't you say that's the truth! ”
"These red tapes can be waived here, a year ago when I repelled the enemy army on the border, Prime Minister Shang Cheng allowed me to choose my son-in-law freely, which means that whoever I fancy has to go back to the General's Mansion with me to get married!"
Yingyue and Tingyu looked at each other in surprise, Miss Su was cheated by Prime Minister Shang!
"Girl, do you have a misunderstanding of the meaning of choosing a son-in-law freely! If you choose a person you like, you will be praised by the people, and it will be passed on as a good story, and you will change more than 20 husbands a year......" Even Su Xiaoluo, a person from modern times, couldn't accept it.
"Little beautiful man, don't call me a girl from now on, that's a lot of outside! It's better to call me Niangzi or General Zheng, it sounds much more pleasant to the ear. ”
"General Zheng, you don't ask me where I'm from, what did I do when I came to Qianyang, I have to marry ...... Forced marriage, this is not appropriate!
Let's be honest! I'm also an official of the imperial court, right...... On the order of Shang Xiangye, he went to Qianyang to inspect. Su Xiaoluo just saw that General Zheng had a look of admiration and eyes shining when he mentioned Prime Minister Shang, and she decided to take a gamble and try to use the name of Prime Minister Shang Cheng who was far away in the capital to see if she could save herself once.
At this moment, Yingyue and Tingyu looked at Su Xiaoluo with admiration on their faces, girl, you shouldn't be called Su Xiaoluo, you should be called Su Banxian! Although it was not directly ordered by the prime minister to come to Qianyang, if the prime minister knew that Miss Su came here to inspect the growth of grains, he would definitely appreciate it.
Zhiyun also nodded, in her eyes, there was not much difference between the emperor's order and the prime minister's order, they should have discussed it before letting Su Xiaoluo come to Qianyang.
