Chapter 009: The Ninth Prince
In the blacksmith shop, several blacksmiths were clanging with sledgehammers and pounding on the red-hot iron pieces, when they suddenly saw a beautiful woman walk in, and they were all stunned. Qing Han saw that these blacksmiths were all dressed and dirty, only to feel a fever on their faces, lowered their heads and didn't dare to look, and retreated to the door in a panic.
But Sima Hongyan didn't seem to think so, and was talking to a blacksmith master.
This kind of thing of talking to a disheveled man on the street, Qinghan is something that he doesn't dare to do, let alone do it, he can't even think about it. It's just that her young lady is the same as no one, not only to say, but also to paint her hands.
This delay is a long time. Qinghan saw that the young lady didn't say anything for a while, and actually squatted on the ground and drew something for the blacksmith master to see. Qinghan was simply stunned, is Miss crazy? I really wanted to rush in and pull the young lady out, but I couldn't get over the hurdle in my heart, and I hesitated for a long time and didn't take a step.
They are delaying here, and there is chaos in the streets. People heard that Miss Sima, who had come back to life in the blacksmith shop, and after a while, the crowd surrounded the gate of the blacksmith shop. The onlookers looked at Miss Sima, who was concentrating, pointing and discussing. Wu Zhao and the others didn't dare to be careless at this time, and the four of them stepped forward together and protected the door of the iron shop.
A group of people look at their young lady like a monster, and they can embarrass Qinghan and embarrass themselves. But there was no way, so I shrank in a corner and kept praying to God to let her young lady come out.
When Sima Hongyan finally finished talking to the blacksmith master, when he turned his head to look for Qinghan, he found that he was not behind him. She searched around and saw Qinghan in the corner of the door.
Seeing the young lady come out, Qinghan couldn't wait to cover her face and pull her back to the house. Who knew that the young lady came over and spread her hand in front of her, and said, "Give money!" ”
"Give money? What money to give? Qinghan didn't react, and asked stupidly.
Sima Hongyan raised her eyebrows and asked her strangely, "What?" Don't you have to pay for something? ”
Only then did Qing Han understand that he was too embarrassed just now, and his brain was a little dull. She pulled out her silver bag and asked, "How much?" Let's go back quickly, I can't stay any longer. ”
Sima Hong said expressionlessly: "Fifty taels." ”
"How much? Fifty taels? Miss, did you buy this iron shop? Qinghan exclaimed in shock.
"Why all the fuss? What I want needs to be made of fine steel, and I have to pay a deposit first. Sima Hongyan said with a calm face.
"Or is it just a deposit? My young lady, my aunt and grandmother. In a hurry, Qinghan even shouted out Sima Hongyan's usual self-title. What are you going to do? With so much money, it's enough to build a door cannon. ”
Sima Hongyan said seriously: "Why are you making cannons? I'm not going to siege the city. Leave it alone, give me the money. ”
Qinghan didn't have time to ask in detail, so he directly stuffed the money bag into Sima Hongyan's hand, and said helplessly: "That's all, Miss, you can do it." ”
Sima Hongyan checked it in his hand, turned his head back, gave it to the blacksmith, received the note, and then slowly came out.
As soon as she came out, the crowd of onlookers involuntarily took a few steps back, staring at her as if they were looking at a monster.
Sima Hongyan didn't expect that he would become the object of onlookers, and the entire road was almost blocked by the crowd, so he couldn't help frowning.
At this time, I suddenly heard the sound of horses' hooves, and more than a dozen fast horses galloped forward. Outside the crowd, someone shouted, "Who is gathering here to make trouble?" Don't dodge it yet! ”
As soon as everyone saw the comer, they dispersed, and more than a dozen people separated from the crowd and walked over.
Sima Hongyan took a closer look, and it was actually a group of soldiers in official uniforms. Surrounded by the first person, this person was dressed in a white brocade robe, and it was a young man. The man walked into the crowd and stood still, looking Sima Hongyan up and down.
At this time, Qinghan was behind her and whispered: "Miss, this person is the leader of the forbidden army in the capital, the ninth prince of the current emperor." ”
Another prince. Sima Hongyan really didn't have a good impression of these royal people, but the number of courtesies was indispensable, so Ying Ying stepped forward in two steps and bowed down.
The Nine Emperors' hands were raised slightly, which was considered a waiver. Sima Hongyan didn't want to entangle with him more, and said, "See you later!" "Turn around and go.
"Wait!" The Nine Emperor Princes opened his mouth to stop, took two steps forward and continued, "I know who you are!" Tell you, you'd better stay in the house honestly, and don't come out and cause a riot. If I let me know what you've misbehaved, I'll take you back to jail. ”
Speaking of the Nine Emperor Princes, I have to mention that he is also a legendary figure in Yanling.
It is said that at the time of his birth, the sky was a vision, and colorful auspicious clouds gathered around the top of the palace for a long time. (Later, Sima Hongyan heard that this blunt statement was simply nonsense!) And after he was born, he was even more intelligent than ordinary people, and when he was less than seven years old, he was able to memorize all the literature in the palace upside down. At the age of eight, he was accepted as a closed disciple by a master outside the world, and returned to Yanling after ten years of study.
After coming back, not only did he learn martial arts, but his knowledge and strategy were also extraordinary, and he was deeply loved by Emperor Yanzhen. But he himself is extremely indifferent to fame and fortune, and never participates in the dispute for the prince. And his indisputability, he was deeply trusted by the emperor, and he entrusted him with the heavy responsibility of commanding the Great Internal Forbidden Army.
To say that this Nine Emperor Princes, who has a different education and has a lot of power in his hands, can be described as a thorn in the side and a thorn in the flesh of other princes. Although it is indisputable, it is deeply favored by the emperor, even if you don't want to fight in the future, maybe the position of the prince will fall on your head. So it once became the target of joint attack and suppression by other princes.
The strange thing is that for some reason, all the princes originally unanimously fought against the Nine Emperor Princes, but suddenly, they gave up inexplicably, and no one went to trouble the Nine Emperor Princes overnight.
The palace and the people have their own opinions on this matter, but no one can say why. As a result, the president of the forbidden army has become an enigmatic figure.
No matter what the outside world says, one thing is well known, that is, don't go against the Nine Emperor Princes! No one knows where this statement comes from.
Whether these rumors are true or not, the entire Yanling people know about them. Qinghan has also heard of it, but there is a person who has not heard of it today, so it is naturally this newly arrived Sima Hongyan.
As soon as she heard that this Nine Emperor Princes came up and scared herself, Sima Hongyan was very unhappy, and regardless of Qinghan, who had been pulling her behind her, she asked unceremoniously: "Your Highness the Nine, I don't know which eye you saw that I had misbehaved?" If there is evidence, you can take me right now. But if not, then what do you mean by your intimidation in public? Could it be that you became the commander of the forbidden army with this ability to scare weak women? ”
As soon as these words came out, there was an uproar around. Someone dared to talk to the Nine Emperors like this, I don't know if there will be anyone who will come in the future, but there is no one before that.
And the person who said this was Sima Hongyan, who was alive after the death of the famous Zhenyan Ling in the past two days!
It has always been a tradition for people to watch the excitement, and the bigger the excitement, the better. They found that the two legendary figures were very excited when they came up, and instead of diminishing, the crowd rushed to tell each other, and the whole street was flooded. Even the rooftops and walls around it were full of people.
dared to contradict himself like this in front of so many people, Sima Hongyan was really the first. The Nine Emperors were stunned by her audacity.
Since taking charge of the forbidden army, everyone I have seen has groveled, everything I have heard has been flattering, and I have never heard of anyone daring to humiliate herself, let alone a woman. Don't say that you don't have it in person, no one even dares to speak ill of yourself in private.
The Nine Emperors are also confident that they are fair and impartial, and have never bent the law for personal gain.
I didn't expect to meet this Sima Hongyan today, and I just made a warning, and I was ridiculed by her. The Nine Emperor Princes thought to himself: "Sure enough, it's different from the rumors, where is a timid person?" ”
Sima Hongyan didn't speak when he saw this Nine Emperor Prince staring at him, just as he was said by himself. "Snort" and said, "Since His Royal Highness the Ninth has nothing to say, the little woman has taken her leave!" With that, he turned around and left. Qinghan next to him broke out in a cold sweat on his head, and secretly exclaimed in his heart: "It's over, Miss has made a big mistake this time!" ”
