Chapter 12: The Dark Tide is Surging
The magnificent, sluggish and luxurious queen's bedroom, the Spring Festival Palace in the house has long been a ravaged spring palace picture, and the whispers of imagination made the two maids guarding the door blush.
Fortunately, the two maids were already used to it, so they just blushed.
At this moment, there was a little hurry, and a trace of panicked footsteps came from the distance, and they approached the house step by step.
The two maids who saw the person coming finally breathed a sigh of relief, and after exchanging glances with each other, they whispered to the person who came.
"Niangniang hasn't gotten up yet, please come back after the adults disperse."
"There is a history of Lao Yuwan women."
Seeing that the person who came was about to turn away, a thin voice came from inside the house.
"Brother clan is here, how can you not see it, come in."
The person who came was the queen's brother Jia Mo.
The room was opened, and the spring color of the house seemed to be condensed in an instant, and a tall, fair-skinned young man dressed in loose silk clothes passed by the visitor, and the green silk like ink jade was allowed to hang on the white chest, indescribably bewitching.
Even the people who came couldn't help but sigh at the queen's unique vision.
"It's also time for the early dynasty, the clan brother came just in time, there must be good news?
Brother? Heheγγ, it seems that you have a wide range of interests, and it is rare to see such a posture!
It's a pity that the best skin has a pair of insatiable eyes, but well, it's good. β
"Niangniang Shengming, Weichen is just a little dazzled."
"Oh? It seems that I have to take good care of it, and then there is a series of chuckles. β
"Weichen has lost his temper, please forgive my sins."
I saw that the person who came was about to kneel down as he spoke, and his face changed like a queen who changed the trick, and soon, with a smiling face, he stepped forward to hold the hands of the person who came with a soft face.
"Brother Clan, you and I don't have to see outside."
Speaking of acting, the two people in front of them are really extraterrestrial existences, the subtlety of the first second, disappeared in the next second, and soon they were a harmonious family.
"Weichen received the news that someone saw them enter Yecheng, but the specific place could not be found, and we have been checking for several days, and there are always people who deliberately obstruct it."
"Old thing, there is really a backup move, this time to make sure that nothing goes wrong."
"Yes, Weichen will live up to his mother's grace, and also, the prince?"
"Brother don't worry, I have my own plan."
"Yes, Weichen retired."
The gilded bronze carved palace lamp, swaying, jumping soft light accompanied by the morning light, as if to plating the whole palace with a layer of golden brilliance.
The staggered halo shone on the queen's face, flickering bright and dark, indescribably vicious.
Rao is a henchman who has been used to it for a long time, and the lady is also terrified when she sees it.
The light of the early morning swayed little by little in the entire room, and Yang Wuyang sat up violently.
What caught his eye was Xiao Douding's worried black eyes, "Wuyang, are you okay?" β
"It's fine, it's just too tired." Yang Wuyang touched the sweat on his face.
"It's okay, Wuyang, the innkeeper is here."
Yang Wuyang followed Xiao Douding's gaze, several familiar faces stood at the door, led by a stunning beauty looking at him with a smile on her face, the person who came was the innkeeper and the shopkeeper who saw her last night.
The stunning beauty in front of her was smiling, but in Yang Wuyang's opinion, that smile couldn't reach the bottom of her eyes.
"Miss Wuyang, I'm really sorry, my ignorant subordinate disturbed the girl's rest, and I hope the girl doesn't mind."
As he spoke, a little guy bowed out from behind the woman, and this little guy was not a stranger, wasn't it the shopkeeper who led the way last night?
"Girl, I'm really embarrassed, the little one can't compensate the girl here." As he spoke, he quickly lowered his head.
Which one is this singing, although Yang Wuyang had doubts, he still got up and walked in the direction of the proprietress, "It's okay, I'm slacking, please take a seat." β
The stunning beauty was not polite, and still sat down with a smile on her face.
Yang Wuyang shook the empty teapot, blinked his eyes, and smiled, "Wuyang is looking for the proprietress for something, let's continue the room for another night, and I want you to inquire about one or two, I don't know how much distance there is to Yecheng from now on." β
"Well, the girl is polite, you can get there in half a day." The beauty is still smiling.
"Wuyang thanked the girl here." As he spoke, he got up and hugged his fists to thank him, looking at it with the spirit of a child of the rivers and lakes.
"Where, we disturbed the girl's rest, and the tea will be delivered to the girl's room later." The beauty got up and helped her like a weak willow supporting the wind, but returned Yang Wuyang's standard daughter in return.
Came with a bang and left quietly.
Yang Wuyang touched his slightly hot forehead, smashed his dry lips, got up and walked towards the hard bed.
"Little Beanding, the tea is here, you call me."
"Uh-huh, Wuyang, are you uncomfortable? Just now, the shopkeeper came over to ask us to pay for the room, and later, the proprietress came. β
"It's really reasonable to pay for the room, I'll sleep for a while, remember to call me."
"Got it, Wuyang."
The shopkeeper who walked out of the guest room couldn't suppress the confusion in his heart anymore, and expressed his doubts with a flattering face.
"Girl, the two sons who came with them last night are gone, I went to knock on the door early in the morning, the room has not moved, it seems that people have not returned overnight, this army is in chaos, there are people everywhere outside, you look at these two people are poor and sour, I am afraid of γγγγ"
"Oh? You know how to look at people, so do you know that the two sons' room fees last night were paid by this girl. The beautiful woman was still smiling faintly, but there was a chill all around her.
This feeling made the shopkeeper inexplicably flustered, and he quickly knelt down to admit his mistake.
"The little one knew that it was wrong, and asked the girl to read it for the sake of the little one wholeheartedly for the good of this inn, and went around the little one this time."
"Okay, you get up, all the guest rooms in the future, the tea will be constant."
"Yes, the little one knows, and the little one will go and serve hot tea to the guests."
Looking at the back of the shopkeeper leaving, the smile in the eyes of the stunning beauty faded little by little, leaving only a chill.
Of course, the number of segments of this shopkeeper is not low, and his mouth is even more ruthless, "Bah, what are you pretending, isn't it just a cheap thing ridden by 10,000 people." β
The scorching sun at noon swayed on the whole land, no, the streets and alleys in Yecheng, the day before yesterday, a lot of people turned their backs, after a day of rest, today is a burst of people; It's just that there is a place where the sun is blazing, and it still can't shine on it.
This is the refugee camp in the eastern part of the city, where displaced people gather, and they can be seen everywhere without food and clothing, and of course, it is also a gathering place for human trafficking.
There are parents selling their children, some buying their own, and there are traffickers who buy and sell human beings in a large supply.
Yang Wuyang walked and stopped all the way, from the surface prosperity of the West City to the catharsis chaos of the East City, everything was changing.
Some people didn't have enough to eat, and some people still made a generous move, buying seven or eight people from the source traffickers, and suddenly, onlookers swarmed up.
"Master, please buy the villain! The villain can eat any hardship, as long as the villain can be satisfied. β
This middle-aged man in brocade clothes has two beards and a delicate beard, and his face is kind.
"Well, then come with me."
Hearing that he had been bought, the kneeling man smirked and kowtowed to thank him.
This move immediately exploded in the crowd, and all the onlookers knelt and kowtowed to buy themselves.
The middle-aged bearded man, looking at the scene in front of him, still smiled kindly.
At this moment, a young man walked out from behind him and knelt in front of the man.
"I beg the lord to buy my sister too, the little one will definitely repay the lord in the future, please lord." As he spoke, he kowtowed.
There was a sound of kowtowing to the ground, and suddenly the young man's forehead was blood-red.
A girl who was annihilated behind the crowd murmured with empty eyes, "Brother." β
However, this sound was finally covered by the chaotic discussion in the crowd, and at this time, the trafficker of the source of the goods, who had been silent, walked up to the man and said with a flattering face:
"Master, if you buy it, the price can be cheaper."
The bearded man smiled and said apologetically, "I only sell male servants this time, not female servants." β
The so-called stone stirred up a thousand waves, the fire in the eyes of the kneeling young man who kowtowed his head was extinguished little by little, the flattering trafficker didn't care, and the kneeling man got up silently.
In the end, the bearded man walked away with more than a dozen people, and the crowd also dispersed.
"Someone's coming, why don't you put her in a cage for me." After the trafficker finished speaking, a big man stepped forward and grabbed the woman with empty eyes.
Dressed in linen, with a thin body and empty eyes, she was taken away by the big man like a chicken, this is the sister in the young man's mouth! Yang Wuyang shook his head lightly and walked away.
It's just that Yang Wuyang, who hadn't walked a few steps, turned back and walked straight towards the girl who was locked back in the cage again.
"Girl, this is going to sell the maidservant! I have a lot of good goods here. The trafficker stood next to Yang Wuyang with a flattering face.
"Let this girl out, I'll see."
The empty-eyed girl was released from the cage again, and stood quietly, like a puppeteer.
Yang Wuyang was not polite, the whole body carefully looked at the girl, time passed by second, Yang Wuyang suddenly stepped forward and covered the girl's eyes with his hand, leaving only half of his face, and the doubts in his mind were finally solved.
"Boss, I want this girl."
"Huh? Or girl, you have a vision. β
Yang Wuyang touched the silver taels in his pocket, and there was a pain in his flesh, the owner's jade pendant was gone, and the silver was not warmed up, so he spent a small half, "Hey, the best jade pendant, falling in the war era, is far less valuable than eating in one bite." β
Yang Wuyang hurriedly walked out of the city with the girl, of course, this street will not stop the joys and sorrows of the world because of the departure of anyone.
The eyes that witnessed this big selling business were not only onlookers Yang Wuyang, no, the horse master in a crescent-colored robe stood not far away and watched this scene completely.
"General, should we make a move?"
"No, send someone to keep an eye on it and wait for the opportunity."
"Yes."
