146. He said his name was Pete
Ye Jingjing was so excited that she gestured with her hands, "This, how much?" ”
“……”
Hearing such a sentence popping out of Ye Jingjing's mouth, Emperor Qianling was confused.
He had never heard anyone say such a thing before, could it be that Ye Jingjing really knew such an exotic language?
Emperor Qianling went to check the reaction of the blond man and the blue eye, but saw that the man's eyes lit up, and he muttered a lot, and he looked quite excited.
Ye Jingjing also nodded anxiously as she spoke, with a smile on her face.
In fact, she only knows a little bit of English, but fortunately, her brain is not too dull now, and some simple communication can still be carried out.
After the two of them chattered for a while, Ye Jingjing suddenly turned around and told Emperor Qianling, "Xianggong, they have crossed the ocean from another hundred years of the sea to Dali, and they want to exchange these glass products for our silk and tea. ”
Emperor Qianling looked at Ye Jingjing in disbelief, and then looked at the strange-looking man.
"That's what he really said?"
Ye Jingjing looked like she took it for granted, "Of course, I can really understand what he said, although I can't hear it clearly when I say it too quickly, but I can still understand it simply." ”
"By the way, he said his name was Pete."
Peter?
Emperor Qianling frowned, it was the first time he had heard such a strange name.
Before he could talk too much to Ye Jingjing, he heard the man start talking to Ye Jingjing again.
After talking for a long time, he only saw Ye Jingjing's face gradually becoming heavy.
Ye Jingjing turned her head and relayed this Pete's words to Emperor Qianling, "Xianggong, he said that they had someone here who wanted to do business with Dali before, and they were locked up, and it seemed that they were going to be beheaded tomorrow." ”
“……”
Emperor Qianling groaned slightly, and asked in a low voice, "Can you ask him, what crime did that person commit in the Great Calendar?" ”
Ye Jingjing asked Pete in broken English, and Pete said a lot, but Di Qianling didn't understand, but he saw the innocence on Pete's face.
Sure enough, Ye Jingjing turned her head and told him, "They don't know what crime they have committed, but like countless times before, they want to use this."
Some glass products were exchanged for silk and other things, and they were arrested by the government. ”
"Moreover, even he himself did not know why he was let go by those people, and only captured his companions."
Emperor Qianling nodded thoughtfully, "It seems that if you want to know why, you can only ask the officials who arrested his companions." ”
Ye Jingjing also nodded.
They first found an inn and stayed there, and then hurried to the county office in this small town without stopping.
After looking for a long time, Ye Jingjing and the others finally stopped in front of a very simple-looking, temple-like house.
"This is the county office?"
This is not the same as the county government she has seen on TV and on the set before? Even the one I saw in the Great Calendar before is completely different!
Not even the same at all!
Ye Jingjing looked at Emperor Qianling in confusion, and Emperor Qianling seemed to be a little embarrassed to half-clench his hands into fists, hide them to his lips and cough lightly.
To be honest, if it weren't for something happening here, even Emperor Qianling himself wouldn't know that there was such a place in his country.
Although there is no merchant trade here along the coast, there is no merchant trade as Ye Jingjing said, so the poor are really unbearable to look at.
The county government in front of him is also dilapidated.
Emperor Qianling pretended to be calm and greeted, "Go in and have a look." So he walked in first.
Ye Jingjing was held in her arms, and could only lean on his shoulder, beckoning to Pete who came from behind.
When they walked in, they found that the inside of this small county government was even more miserable than the outside, and even the emperor Qianling couldn't stand it.
The drums in front of the county government were also in tatters, and they couldn't, so they could only go straight in.
Emperor Qianling stood in front of the earthen hall with Ye Jingjing in his arms, and asked loudly, "Where is the county official?" ”
There was a rush of footsteps from the back hall, and then, a spirited young man appeared in front of them.
The young man was wearing an official uniform and sat in the seat where the county official was sitting, with a square face and awe-inspiring face.
Immediately afterward, several catchers who were about the same age as him also hurried up.
"Might~Martial~"
Tang Wei shouted like an image
In the same way, the clothes on these people are also quite clean, but it gives them a bright feeling.
The young county magistrate was shocked, and asked in a serious and heavy voice, "Who are you waiting for, what is the matter with coming to the county office?" ”
Ye Jingjing was put down by Emperor Qianling, and gave the young county official a salute in a proper manner, and then slowly spoke, "My lord, the woman wants to ask." ”
She pulled Pete behind her, "A few days ago, the adults caught a foreigner on the street in the downtown area, I don't know what the so-called crime is?" ”
The county magistrate snorted coldly.
"The official thought you were someone, but it turned out to be the thief's accomplice!"
"That thief cheated on the street some time ago, and tried to rape a woman from a good family! is so rampant, how can this official tolerate him! ”
Ye Jingjing was shocked by the county official's righteous and stern words, blinked her eyes, and didn't know what to say for a while.
I had to turn my head and ask Pete next to me if there was such a thing.
It took Pete a long time to understand what Ye Jingjing meant, and he was shocked and hurriedly denied it.
He said that they had only wanted to exchange some of her spices with the woman that day, and that they had never seen them before, and that they were not ill-intentioned!
But no one understood what they were saying, and the woman was anxious to leave, and his companion was anxious, so he was arrested by the county officials.
In this way, it is a misunderstanding!
Ye Jingjing relayed what she understood Pete's words to the county official, but the county official narrowed his eyes suspiciously.
"Who are you, and how can you understand what this man is saying?"
Ye Jingjing, "......"
She can't say that she has a soul in her body that has traveled from modern times, or the kind that has passed the English level 4 exam, right?
Helpless, Ye Jingjing had no choice but to look at the Emperor Qianling for help.
Emperor Qianling shook his head, now is not the time for the two of them, and it is not possible to conclude that the foreigner's companion is innocent based on the one-sided words of this person.
If you really want to prove his innocence, you can only confront him in court.
Therefore, Ye Jingjing had no choice but to ask the county official to summon the woman that day.
As soon as the so-called victim appeared, Ye Jingjing and Emperor Qianling's hearts suddenly believed in the innocence of the foreigner. 2k reading web
