Chapter 246: Investigation
Valen was very interested in the tribes to the north that Sansa had mentioned, and after the regular court meeting, he returned to the harem and made a pomp to visit Sansa and the others where they lived.
Even if they were rewarded to live near the city lord's bedroom, the room where Shanshan and the three of them lived still retained the style of the room they had freshened up before, and it was too simple.
When they slept, they spread their bedding on the floor, and when they got up in the morning, they had to put them away and put them in the cupboards.
The whole room has a lot of space, and the three of them can only sit in a daze after cleaning up the room and themselves.
The women who were chosen to work as handymen looked a little more fulfilling.
They had already begun to be busy in the palace, and the women who had stood together in the small square yesterday to be screened had been divided into some to be served and some to be served.
I don't know if there will be a gap in the hearts of these women.
"I want to know about where you came from."
There was nothing in the room, and the lord of the castle who came to visit was followed by a procession, which was very strange and brought a full set of furniture, a screen, a chair with only the right armrest on the ground, a small table, and a set of stone-carved tea sets.
The trio were also given three cushions to put under their legs when they knelt.
"What is the castle lord interested in?"
Shanshan didn't have to pour tea and water for the city lord, but there were maids in uniform clothes who would pour water and snacks for the three of them.
It feels weird.
"Whatever you want, I like to hear it."
The lord of Valen City is a graceful and beautiful man who plays with a cup in his hand, as if casually looking at the three women kneeling in a row, who are also his nominally included in the harem.
"It's not as warm in my hometown, it's snowing now, there's no food in winter, and if you don't have enough hides, you'll have to hide in a cave and freeze."
Shanshan recounted the tragic days of the southern tribes a few years ago.
They have long since gotten rid of poverty and become well-off, but recalling the hard days at the beginning, she still described it very sincerely, I am afraid that even if the person sitting opposite at this time is Jun Qianqian, it is impossible to see that she is lying.
"Hiding in a cave?"
Valen listened with relish.
"Yes, in our place, only the most honorable people can live in a house made of wood, and I was so moved that I almost couldn't sleep last night that I could live in such a good house."
Saying that, Shanshan glanced at Valen gratefully, her face flushed slightly, as if she was shy that she was a poor girl who didn't know anything, and as if she was not good at expressing gratitude so bluntly.
Fake, all fake.
Sansa picks out a few things from the past and tells Valen about it, and strives to create a tribe that is destitute, hungry, and barely able to survive.
"But not far from our tribe, there are also very powerful tribes, and their lives are much better."
Blindly pretending to be weak is inevitably suspicious.
"Powerful? How powerful is it? ”
Valen smiled rather than smile.
"They have enough food every year, and everyone gets to wear thick clothes!"
Shanshan said excitedly, almost dancing with her hands, her eyes were full of envy, living in a powerful tribe, life is like heaven!
"Do you think my city is stronger, or is that tribe stronger?"
Valen asked a proposition.
"I don't know ...... either"
But Shanshan said she could refuse to answer.
"I haven't been in the city for a long time, and I don't know what life in the city is like, and besides, I haven't been able to go to that powerful tribe to see it, and when they fled, they didn't want to open the door, and threw stones at us and drove us away."
At this point, Sansa put on a look of loss.
Linda knelt on the side, listening very attentively, and couldn't help but whisper in her heart.
Are these true or false?
Sounds like the real thing!
However, they must have come from a very powerful tribe, right?
She was about to be confused when she said it, and Linda was about to believe Shanshan's words even more at this time.
"The best thing for people like us is to confuse people."
In the hotel, Jun Qianqian and they had just gotten up.
She touched her eyelids, in her universe invincible inner shuang, there was a small black mole hidden, I heard others talk about physiognomy back then, people with moles on their eyelids are all weirdos, have demons, and are good at confusing others.
"In this regard, maybe Shanshan's level is even higher than mine."
In the short term, she can make a script in her head, pretending to deceive people, and she can't maintain it for a long time.
After all, she is not like Shanshan, who is more comfortable and even happy to live in lies, while Jun Qianqian often gets bored.
"You do have a very distracting acting."
Tianyin recalled that he was deceived back then, this person was locked up in a dungeon, and he couldn't pretend to be pitiful for a long time, so he completely let go of himself, and often deliberately angered him.
Shanshan was in the river valley tribe at the beginning, but she maintained a perfect disguise for several years.
To this day, he wasn't sure if he had seen Sansa in person.
Valen stayed with Sansa for an hour or two, listened to the story very happily, and invited the three of them to his dormitory for dinner, and Sansa sincerely agreed, and Rachel and Linda were kind of touched by her, and quickly thanked her to follow.
Finally able to go to the city lord's bedroom to see, Shanshan was silent, in fact, she was very happy in her heart, but after entering the house, she just wanted to hold her forehead and sigh.
There is no furniture here either.
The lord of the city moved wherever he went, because there was only one set of furniture in the whole palace?
What the hell is the process of going out and moving!
Shanshan complained wildly in her heart.
On the other side, the three of them went out for a spin and came back.
"The people in the city are different from Harrom Village, the people here are very xenophobic, I just asked a few people, and they didn't want to talk to me."
Jun Qianqian is dressed up as a little Zheng/Tai, and the child can make people relax their vigilance, but she has always been invincible.
"When I went to renew my room, the owner of the hotel also looked at me with great surprise."
It seems that the guests received by this hotel are all wild mandarin ducks who only stay for one night, and they are the first guests to stay in a row.
"According to the love of harmony here, there should be a lot of children on the street."
She didn't believe that the people here could actually study a way to avoid/get pregnant, and they didn't come up with a safe and convenient prescription for avoiding pregnancy!
"There are very few people on the streets, and they are getting fewer and fewer."
Roze found that on the corner of the street, there were many empty houses that had been abandoned and uninhabited.
