Chapter 37: Out of the Palace and Anti-Corruption 2
A Dream of Floating Life - Chapter 37, Out of the Palace and Anti-Corruption 2
Nangong Liuli sat patiently in the carriage, after more than two hours (more than an hour) of bumps, the carriage made it to the bustling and lively street, Nangong Liuli and Xiao Luosheng were in the same carriage, Nangong Liuli hindered Xiao Luosheng's presence, it was not good to open the window to look outside, but Xiao Liusheng closed his eyes as if he was asleep, and Nangong Liuli's courage became bigger.
"Water culvert, open the window." Nangong Liuli whispered to Shui Han.
"Huh?" Shui Han said loudly in surprise, and immediately covered his mouth after realizing that something was wrong, and whispered, "Princess, this is not in accordance with the rules, right?" ”
Nangong Liuli saw that Shui Han was grinding, so he came from the carriage to the window and sat next to Shui Han, and opened the window by himself: "Wow! ”
The picture that catches the eye is a prosperous, rich, and peaceful scene, with people coming and going on the streets, everyone with a smile on their faces, and they are dressed well, although occasionally a few beggars are found.
Nangong Liuli suddenly saw a vendor carrying a large string of rock sugar gourds on his back, so he said to Shui Han: "This thing is very famous, next time I will take you to eat." ”
"Famous?" Shui Han looked at Nangong Liuli suspiciously: "Princess, this kind of thing is not clean, and eating it is not good for your health, how can you be famous?" ”
"You'll know about Ra in a few hundred years." Rock sugar gourd can be said to be a must-have for costume dramas, which is very common in modern film and television works, and some even regard it as a love object for the hero and heroine.
Shui Han was puzzled and wanted to speak, but who knew that at this time, Xiao Xunsheng opened his eyes and said, "Queen, you are so impatient to leave the palace just now?" Xiao Xunsheng stood up and walked to Nangong Liuli and sat down beside her, while Shui Han could only watch the seat being robbed, but he could only stand.
"Your Majesty, the concubines just want to ask you, you say that this street is so prosperous, what kind of corruption is it against going out of the palace in a good manner?" Not to be outdone, Nangong Liuli asked rhetorically: "Oh, I heard that the concubine wanted to leave the palace, and I was afraid that the rules would be broken, so I took the concubine out to play on the grounds of anti-corruption?" ”
"You're thinking too much." Xiao Xunsheng looked at Nangong Liuli's smiling expression, and said incomprehensibly: "Doesn't Concubine Ai feel that there have been fewer and fewer monthly cases in the palace recently?" ”
"When you say that, it seems to be true."
"That's because the treasury is empty, and there is no silver to be distributed." Xiao Xunsheng explained: "I suspect that someone is doing something about the tax rate. ”
"Oh, I see." Nangong Liuli was explained by Xiao Luosheng, and suddenly realized: "We are really here to arrest corrupt officials, yes, great!" Nangong Liuli stood up excitedly, she had only seen catching bad guys and corrupt officials in costume dramas and martial arts dramas before, but she didn't expect that one day she would experience these things herself, she really suspected that this was a dream.
"Princess." Seeing Nangong Liuli like this, Shui Han couldn't help but remind.
Nangong Liuli reacted instantly, sat down, and smiled awkwardly at Xiao Xunsheng: "I'm sorry, I was too excited just now." ”
Xiao Xunsheng didn't reply, which made Nangong Liuli even more embarrassed, her gaze turned from Xiao Xunsheng to Shui Han, and shrugged at Shui Han.
