Unconsciously in the "Agou Lantern Candle Workshop" and the old shopkeeper Pan talked about lunch, he actually warmly left me for lunch.

The old shopkeeper is quite arrogant, and it is not easy to gain his trust. However, this kind of character is also mostly empty and lonely in his heart, and he often has a sense that it is difficult to find a bosom friend in the mountains and rivers, and he either becomes a person he admires, or a person who has the same feelings as him.

As for blindly flattering and gathering for profit, he is not in the eyes of the old shopkeeper.

I told the old shopkeeper about the appearance of the Taoist temple I encountered when I escaped from the palace for the first time: "Weng Weng, that old Taoist is the same age as you, and according to my observation, it seems that he is also doing this smuggling." ”

The old shopkeeper shook his head: "Speaking of Taoism, there are several inside and outside the capital, living to my age, I don't know how many times I have been there, but there is really no mountain gate is a narrow step, dilapidated, which is not the incense is vigorous, carved fences and jade." ”

Even the old shopkeeper is unheard of, and it seems that the secrecy of that place is extraordinary.

After lunch, and chatting with the old shopkeeper about other things for a while, I made an appointment with him, and if I got a vacancy, I would come to the shop and then rummble with him.

Bidding farewell to the old shopkeeper, I remembered the last time I met a group of merchants from the Western Regions at the Mutton Restaurant at the city gate.

At that time, they hid in their car and went out of the city, and when they woke up, the car was still there, but none of them were gone. Regarding their whereabouts, I didn't dare to question the terrifying old Tao at that time, and I always had this matter hanging in my heart.

I found the mutton restaurant and asked the owner for news, and the result was just as I had imagined: the restaurant at the city gate was full of people and customers every day, and I had long forgotten about it.

Only the clever shopkeeper had a few words with me: "This brother might as well go to the diagonal street next to the West Market and ask, there is a gathering place for the Hu people, I think someone remembers this group of merchants." But brother still find a companion to go over together, look at your weakness, that place is mixed, I'm afraid that you often encounter thieves and robbers. ”

The retreat in my heart is pounding, in case I sell me to Cloudsdale like Aunt Su's little brother again, how can it be good.

Seeing that half of the afternoon had passed, I ate a mandarin duck jelly on the side of the road, and walked back to Xiangfu leisurely.

The corner door in the backyard was gently pushed, only to find that the door was actually hidden.

Where are the two little brothers who are guarding the door? Is this the spirit of the gods who have sensed me and helped me to go out and come back smoothly?

I couldn't help but feel happy and hummed a little tune back to the backyard. But as I walked, I suddenly heard the cries and shouts in the small garden in front of me, and I hurried to the side of the road, and cautiously stepped forward to find out what was going on.

From a distance, it turned out to be a few slaves and maids kneeling on the ground and facing the board, begging for mercy endlessly, and if you look closely, it even includes the maid who served me to wash.

I instantly understood what was going on, it was because I had slipped out of the house and caused a mess in the pond.

And the one who gave the orders and showed off his might turned out to be Li Chengyun himself. He was sitting leisurely on a bench at the moment, casually looking down at everything at his feet.

I hurriedly rushed forward and said loudly, "Third son, what are you punishing them for?" Didn't I leave a note on the table and say I'd come back after a trip? ”

Li Chengyun stood up and took two steps towards me, his eyes were very deep, like a cold pool. The tone ridiculed me and said: "I am a dignified minister, and today I actually asked a yellow-haired girl to say in and out, and she became a vegetable garden." Among the unclear goods, this son can only punish these few who have no interest, the one who has the ability, isn't this waiting for her to come back. ”

I instantly became angry and glared at him: "What do you mean? Who can't figure it out? What are you? ”

He turned sideways and stopped looking at me, and shouted at the person who was being punished: "These minions, you will be fined ten more rods and beaten hard!" ”

Then the eyes were full of the ghost of the wooden staff waving, and the ears were full of crackling crispness and painful noise.

I couldn't help but squeeze a few words out of my teeth: "The prime minister's son is really powerful, but I forgot that I had such treatment." Do unto others as you would have them do unto you. ”

The ten rods were quickly finished, and the world was immediately quiet again.

Li Chengyun scraped the wrench on his hand with his fingernails, and looked at me with an evil smile on the corner of his mouth: "They are punished, it's your turn." ”

I chuckled in my heart and changed my face.

His voice was no longer excited, but joking: "Come on, take this girl." ”

I turned around and tried to run, but I was stopped by the family next to me, and one of them grabbed me by the arm and dragged me to the stool, but at the moment I was like a big rabbit caught by two ears, and no matter how much I struggled, it was useless.

The kicking feet were quickly grasped by the ankles, and the shoulders were also held down by one of them, and I was still making a final effort to break free, and I grabbed my shoulders by feeling, as if I had broken the back of the man's hand that was pressing me.

Li Chengyun sighed and said: "Look, if you don't press her, you will also suffer." ”

Then they intensified, and my chest was squeezed against the hard sandalwood stool, and I was almost out of breath.

"Alright, torture." Li Chengyun sighed so relaxed.

Then I saw two maidservants in front of me, each holding a large handful of red plum blossom branches in his hands, walking towards me.

The plum blossoms on that branch are in full bloom, red to the bone, could it be that the torture tools - these are these two red plums?

Before I could think about it, there was already a sassy autumn wind behind me. However, it didn't hurt at all on my body, and then a flower rain bloomed, and the thousands of plum hearts and ten thousand petals of red stamens waved all over the sky, between the feet, or wandering on my white robe, red and white, a little red and snow. Or leave a wisp of incense on my garment and slip it to the ground, and make the brown earth even more fragrant red.

Others are impartial, snuggling up to my hair, and with a slight movement, the petals will caress my cheeks and fall, like a "drunken red self-warmth", and I will fall with me.

I raised my head hatefully and scolded: "Li Chengyun! You deliberately insulted me! ”

He suddenly squatted down and grabbed my neck, his eyes like a torch: "Say! Why did you ask Shui Sisi to come to the polo pavilion to find me? ”

He choked my throat and couldn't say a whole sentence, so I could only say intermittently, "No, I didn't." ”

He seemed to have decided that I was not innocent early on, so he gave me a complete opportunity to explain, and still said angrily: "You think you are a guest in our prime minister's mansion? There is a junior rank in the palace who is a female official? Let me tell you, you are the slave who works for our Li family. ”

I felt like I was going to be choked, my face was red, my teeth couldn't be closed, I felt sick again between desperate panting, and my tears were oozing out.

The person who pressed me on the bench hadn't stopped yet, and I couldn't hear what Li Chengyun was muttering clearly, and at this time, I felt a figure lift Li Chengyun up, and at the same time, the power exerting pressure on me was released in an instant.

I coughed sharply, and suddenly, Li Chengyun's face was slapped in the sky, and the crisp sound made me wake up immediately.

I was still lying on the stool to relax, and I glanced up and saw that Li Chengyun's clothes were still being carried by Xiangye. The corners of his mouth, which were bleeding slightly, bloomed into the signature smile with white teeth after seeing his father. And said in a coquettish tone: "Grandpa, grandpa, don't be angry, the little girl Shi is not polite today, and she went to the street without permission." Son this is scaring to scare her! ”

A wicked person sues first.

In this situation, if I just saw Xiangye, I would still be able to be strong and calm my emotions.

However, when I saw Aunt Su's figure behind Xiangye, I couldn't control it anymore, and I just howled and cried!
