Chapter Eighty-Nine: A Smile 5
The next day, the host's family fried a few bland and tasteless side dishes, although they knew that this common man usually ate these, but Ji Gongyan and others were used to pampering, and it was difficult to swallow it at all.
The man greeted them warmly, and before they set out on the road, he gave them a carved stone, and said, "You are going on the road, we have nothing good to entertain the guests, but I have a distant relative, and if you take the carved stone to meet him, he will help you go on the road." ”
Ji Gongyan took it, played with it a few times, and said, "What is this?" ”
Si Si glanced at it, his face changed, and he swung his spear and stabbed at the man.
"Stop!" Bao Xi scolded, Si Si still didn't stop, Ji Gong said angrily: "What are you doing? ”
"Master, this person clearly has bad intentions!" Si Si stared at the man viciously and asked, "Say!" Whose house are you a slave? Dare to frame us! ”
These carved stones were the tools that the nobles gave to their slaves and commoners, and this guy was clearly a fugitive slave from the aristocratic family, living in seclusion in the mountains, and trying to lure them to the nobles' homes with bad intentions.
The man was not frightened, and said with a smile: "The contemptible person is just a reckless man in the mountains, why should the temple people pull some of them?" ”
"You know!" Si Si stabbed hard.
"Never!" A woman ran out, blocked the sharp mouth, intercepted his spear, and said coldly, "Did we tell you to do it?" ”
The woman knelt on the ground, burst into tears, wept bitterly and begged for mercy, and the man on the ground looked up without fear and said, "Demon concubine! Faint! If you don't kill me today, tomorrow I will have you captured alive." ”
"Love, love, ......" The woman hugged him, crying bitterly, Ji Gongyan kicked them fiercely and snatched the spear from Si Si's hand.
"The King." Bao Xi grabbed his hand, shook his head, and said, "Now that we are in great difficulty, we must not make any more trouble, so let's listen to what they have to say first!" "Although this is a rural settlement, there are also people who register the population, and the death of a few people for no reason will inevitably lead to suspicion, and it is not good to get into trouble.
After some tugging, Ji Gongyan threw away the spear and said, "What do you say?" ”
"I don't have anything to say, if you want to kill or chop, whatever you want!" The man looked disdainful and turned to the other end, and the woman wept, "The beloved man is lost for a while, he really didn't mean to." ”
"In the past, we also had thousands of acres of fertile land and thousands of slaves, but the king took all our land because of the words of the Duke of Yu, so we were forced to leave our homeland and come here to settle down, and last night I saw the queen's beauty, and I was fascinated for a while, so I wanted to ......"
What do you think? Of course, she was sold to be a 'concubine'! The rest is well known to all.
"What a guts!" Ji Gongyan said angrily: "You pariahs! If you dare to plot against you, if you don't ...... today?"
"Senseless Dumb King! You've done so many bad things, you've run out of gas, and you still don't want to repent! I don't see your head falling to the ground in a few days! The man shouted, Ji Gongyan rushed forward, Bao Xi hugged his waist but was thrown away by him, she supported the ground with both hands, and shouted at the man: "You don't want to die, what about your wife and children?" Keep saying that the king is mediocre, but in fact, you are a dizzy fly! ”
Ji Gongyan picked up the spear, the man also got up to grab it, Si Si and Ji You went to stop it, the scene was a mess, Bao Xi took advantage of the chaos to grab the woman's throat and shouted: "Don't move!" Otherwise, if she dies, I will die too! ”
The man stopped and said tremblingly: "You, you put down your hand first!" ”
Seeing Ji Gongyan rushing towards with a spear, she said angrily: "King, don't you put it down?" She was so delicate that she was panting and sweating profusely after making this series of movements, and she felt that the woman was struggling, and she raised her voice: "Let's discuss, take a step back, I can let her go, but you can't move your mind again!" And swear that you must keep it a secret and not tell anyone that we have been here! ”
After everyone calmed down, Bao Xi was not in a hurry to release the person, and said sarcastically: "Your husband and wife only care about finding fault with others, so what crime should you be guilty of building a house without permission?" "During the reign of King Li of Zhou, it was clearly stipulated that the mountains, forests and swamps could not be exploited without permission, and the land was fenced off, and they clearly violated the decree.
The two were speechless, Bao Xi let go of her hand, pushed her to the man, and said, "I know that you have a lot of grievances against us, but when is the time to retribution?" Now that we have reaped the consequences of our own evil and been forced to flee, we have been retributed, so why should you husbands and wives force each other? Do you have to be accused of 'killing the king' to be happy? ”
The man was shocked by these words, and he woke up with a spirit, his legs weakened, and he immediately knelt on the ground and kowtowed.
At this time, the noble and lowly people born have been doomed, the Son of Heaven is the Son of Heaven, the princes are the princes, the slaves are slaves, the 'Son of Heaven' is regarded as the medium between heaven and man, and is the supreme king, and the common people are as lowly as grass mustard, no matter how downtrod the king is, it is by no means something that he can offend as a small commoner.
Before, this man was carried away by hatred and only wanted to take revenge on the king and queen he hated, but now when he came to his senses, he realized that he dared to kill the king in the face of the world's disapproval!
The innate servility made him quickly surrender to Ji Gongyan's feet, kowtowing more than once, Ji Gongyan also wanted to take advantage of this, Bao Xi pulled his sleeve, made a look, he reluctantly 'hummed' and spared them.
In the house, the male and female hosts poured water for them with the happiness of the rest of their lives after the catastrophe, and Bao Xi found an opportunity to ask about the current situation outside, and the man said: "The contemptible people went outside this morning to investigate and found that the ghost army had been beaten away, but ......"
"If you have something to say, you might as well say it."
"Doctor Xitui is wantonly occupying the land of Wangji, and he may soon completely occupy Hojing." Doctor Xi Trai is Qin Jun, he is one of the few princes who came to the rescue of King Qin, but now he silently swallowed his capital.
"How can it be!" Ji Gongyu shouted: "It's just a slut who raises horses!" How dare you occupy ...... That's right! What about Yijiu? ”
The man said, "Prince...... No, the abolished prince, Shenhou, and Jin justice are discussing the relocation of the capital. ”
"Move the capital?" Ji Gongyan exclaimed, and the man said: "Yes, Hojing has been burned to ruins, and the people have fled, if you don't move the capital, there is no way!" ”
The silence lasted for a long time, and Ji You asked in a low voice, "What about the little digging protrusion?" Is he still alive? ”
"I heard from the homeless people that Ling Gongzi had a meritorious role in repelling the dogs, and the abolished prince and Shenhou appreciated it very much."
Ji You spurted out a mouthful of old blood, he covered his chest, old tears were horizontal, and he looked up to the sky and wept: "Rebel! Unfilial son! "The old father tried his best to save the car and dedicate the last drop of his heart and soul to the orthodoxy of the royal family, but he supported the new lord and forgot all the teachings of the old father!
He couldn't bear the stimulation for a moment and fainted.
