Chapter 164: She didn't want to save people at all
Boss Cui looked at the son in front of him, and really wanted to fan his mouth, what did this kid say just now? Want to work as a craftsman in Kyoto Castle? Want to enter the Ministry of Engineering? Can he know about his son's little catty? This is just nonsense!
"Son, think about it again, our ancestors have never been a craftsman, how can you be a craftsman?" Boss Cui gritted his teeth in his heart, but he couldn't really smoke his son on his face, just such a son didn't get used to it since he was a child, if it was broken, it was himself who was distressed.
Cui Xuelou shook his head: "There is no ancestor who is not, and our ancestor has never been an official, isn't there no hope for my father to let me take the merit test?!" ”
It doesn't feel very good to let his son gag his words, but Cui Xuelou only needs to be a talent in his studies, and his family can be regarded as having face, and now he wants to be a craftsman in a workshop in the Ministry of Industry, is it more difficult than taking the test for fame?
When Cui Xueying heard this, she said: "Dad, you can just let your younger brother give it a try, anyway, my younger brother is still young, and there will be time to test his fame in the future!" "If nothing else, soon this stupid boy will be able to come back, since he was a child, he has remembered that one is one out, where to insist on living?!
Boss Cui gritted his teeth, thinking that no one would complain when his son came back from hitting a wall, anyway, his son was playful, and his blood cooled down in a few days, so he said: "It's also done, but the family won't give too much money, you have to go out, I will not let you starve to death at most, if you think about taking the family's money to play in Kyoto City, then hurry up and don't dream!" ”
As soon as he heard that Boss Cui agreed, Cui Xuelou was happy, and hurried back to the room to prepare, according to the management, the Ministry of Industry will start recruiting a new round of craftsmen in March, and he will go early to make preparations.
Cui Xueying looked at her younger brother like this, and said: "Dad, why don't my daughter go with me, my younger brother has no heart, although it is not stupid, but the place in Kyoto City is definitely not as simple as our Yunzhou City. ”
"This ...... Your marriage hasn't been decided yet, I'm in a hurry! "Boss Cui doesn't want his daughter to go to Kyoto City with him, and he wants to get married first.
Cui Xueying said: "It won't take too long for my younger brother to go, just a few months to die, and when the time comes, my daughter's marriage will be handled according to my father's wishes." ”
Boss Cui felt that Cui Xueying definitely didn't want to compromise when she said this, but she still wanted to go to Kyoto City together because she was still thinking about the kid surnamed Han.
"Go ahead." Boss Cui agreed, and he didn't have anything he could do about his son and daughter.
Cui Xueying went back to pack her things, and when she was leaving, Boss Cui handed over all the money to Cui Xueying, and brought a mother-in-law and a maid, as well as two family members and a coachman to accompany her, if there was only Cui Xuelou, he would not worry about what could happen to a stinky boy, but his daughter was different, and she had to be protected when she went out.
"Don't let your brother handle the money, although he is not a big spender, but he will not calculate the spending." Boss Cui advised.
Cui Xueying nodded, knowing in her heart that her father's heart would definitely be uncomfortable if she insisted on going her own way, but she didn't have a chance, and Kyoto City was so big, she might just try her luck, even if she saw Han Yushu, I was afraid that there would be no result.
Along the way, the sisters and brothers didn't want to be so dull when they went out, after all, they had never been to Kyoto City, and they were full of expectations.
"Sister, there seems to be someone in front." When Cui Xuelou went out, he happened to see a person lying on the road, and the coachman also hurriedly stopped at this time, and turned around and said, "Miss, young master, there is really a person in front, I don't know if I am dead or alive!" ”
Cui Xuelou jumped out of the carriage and was about to go over to see, Cui Xueying hurriedly pulled the person back: "If you are really a dead person, you are so unlucky, hurry back!" Then he asked the coachman to go and have a look.
The coachman and the housekeeper in the car behind jumped down to check, and after a while the coachman said, "Miss, the person still has a breath, and there seems to be a knife wound on his body, and it doesn't look very serious." ”
When Cui Xueying heard this, she said: "Why don't you move people aside, let's go out, and it's not good to provoke right and wrong." "In case they are hunted down, or if they are bandits, they will be burned if they save someone.
The coachman nodded, and the family went to carry the man, but halfway through the lift, the man woke up.
The prince never dreamed that he would be hunted down one day, and it must be the handiwork of a lady in the harem. Although he escaped in chaos, he was too tired to stand it, and finally fainted on the pipe.
When he woke up, he found someone in front of him, and he thought that he had fallen into the hands of the assassin, and just as he was about to move, the wound on his body was torn again.
As soon as Cui Xueying woke up, she gave the coachman a look, and the coachman quickly asked the family to let go, and then hid back and kept a safe distance from the other party.
"Are you alright, we saw that you fainted on the side of the road, do you want to see the doctor?" Cui Xueying asked, it was only in form, after all, she had to throw people aside just now, and it would be embarrassing for people to know.
The prince looked at himself, and then reluctantly stood up, but it hurt to walk again.
"Thank you so much, this should be a thank you." As he spoke, the prince took out a jade pendant on his body, which was still worth some money.
Cui Xueying didn't expect that the other party was really polite, that jade pendant was indeed a good thing, but she still didn't want to cause trouble......
"You don't need the jade pendant, or you ......" She wanted to say let this person go to the county town in front by himself, but the person got into the car directly.
The coachman hurried over and said, "Miss, this is ...... What should I do? ”
Cui Xueying sighed and said, "Forget it, anyway, the county seat in front is not far away, and after bringing people over, they will part ways." Then I got in the car too.
There was a bit of blood in the car, Cui Xuelou looked at the injured person opposite, and asked, "Is someone chasing you?" ”
The prince raised his eyebrows, is this asking too directly? He replied, "I met bandits on the road." ”
"School building, don't ask so much." Cui Xueying naturally didn't believe the bandits, Hexi Prefecture was rich, and being a bandit was not as good as going to work and harvest, and she hadn't heard of any bandits in this area for so many years. And just that piece of jade pendant just now is worth a lot of money, really said it is a bandit, can you keep it? It is estimated that he was hunted down and killed.
Cui Xuelou pursed her lips and was silent, and when she arrived in the city, Cui Xueying saw that there was a medical officer on the side of the road, so she asked the coachman to stop first, and then said: "This strong man, we ordinary people don't dare to cause trouble, this money will be used as medical fees for you, let's leave it at that." ”
The prince looked at the silver taels in Cui Xueying's hand, and took them directly, he had nothing else valuable on him except the jade pendant, what could he do if he didn't take it without money? However, he still took out the jade pendant and said, "If you have difficulties in the future, take this jade pendant to Kyoto City and find a pawnshop at random, and someone will be able to help you." ”
Cui Xueying didn't want it, for fear of causing trouble, but as soon as she heard the three words Kyoto City, she wondered if this person was a dignitary in Kyoto City? My sister and brother are also going to Kyoto City in the future, if ......
"Thank you very much." Cui Xueying thought about it, and finally accepted the jade pendant, and when she saw this person get out of the car, she also hurried away, and she didn't dare to stay in this county seat.
After the prince arrived at the medical officer, he took the silver and asked the medical officer to take his token to the county seat yamen to transfer people, otherwise he was afraid that he would not be able to return to Kyoto City on the way.
……………………
Xi Hongdou is recruiting people here, Yao San has recruited seven or eight in a few days, and a few new caravans will be gathered, and the leader of the new caravan is Yao San's brother-in-law Zhao Er, the big name Zhao Zhensheng, people are clever, Xi Hongdou had already guessed that this errand would fall on Zhao Er's head, so it was not surprising.
"The old caravan has also been transferred to help, after all, it will take time for the new team to run in, so it will be able to do business normally earlier." Yao San and Xi Hongdou talked about the progress.
Xi Hongdou nodded: "It's safe this way, it's good that Third Brother Yao is in charge." ”
Yao San responded, don't look at Xi Hongdou being so busy all day long, but he also knows everything in his heart.
On the street outside the door, the guards hurried out of the city one after another, and Xi Hongdou wondered: "Isn't Kyoto City peaceful recently?" ”
Yao San whispered: "I heard the brothers say in private that the prince lost it." ”
Xi Hongdou was surprised, she had also seen the posture of the prince's travel, and there were so many people in front and back, how could she still lose it?
"What's the matter?" Xi Hongdou asked: "And where did this news come from?" Really? "She's never heard Xiao Zhi say it?
Yao San said: "There is a guy over there in the Chamber of Commerce, my younger brother was sent to the palace to be a eunuch when he was a child, I heard from him. ”
Xi Hongdou sighed, pondering that this matter was probably suppressed, and then said: "Don't tell others again, so as not to provoke right and wrong." ”、
Yao San nodded, and went first.
Xi Hongdou hurried home, Xiao Zhi should also be home at this time, this is a big news, Xiao Zhi borrowed the prince's east wind before the bandits, if the prince is bad, Xiao Zhi and even the Xiao family will have a bad future.
When he returned home, Xi Hongdou told Xiao Zhi about what he had heard, and after Xiao Zhi heard it, he said: "That's really possible, Concubine Zhao Jing's maiden family doesn't seem to be restless these days, plus the movement in Kyoto City in the past few days, this matter may be really true." ”
As soon as Xi Hongdou heard that there was a high chance that it might be true, he asked, "Then what should I do?" Now it is estimated that many people think that our family and the prince are together! ”
Xiao Zhi said: "There should be nothing wrong, since the emperor has begun to move, it means that the person has found it, if it is not found, this matter will be carried out even more secretly." ”
Xi Hongdou seems to understand whether he understands or not, as long as the prince is fine. I used to think that the Xiao family was a big official, but now that I look at it, no matter how big an official is, I have to be afraid, maybe there will be a change in the situation one day, and if the sky changes, it will change the sky.
