Chapter 2: The Dead Eunuch
"Ouch, my stomach hurts...... Big brother, people have three urgencies, I see that you are righteous and noble, noble, entrusted by others, and loyal to people, which is really admirable, but I ......"
"Shut up!"
"Hey...... I think my eldest brother is calm and has strong martial arts, have you ever been married? With the conditions of the eldest brother, the sister-in-law must be gentle and graceful, and the country is beautiful, right? Ah, the eldest brother is silent, isn't it that he hasn't married yet? Big brother, you finally found the right person, I Xu someone has no other skills, but I know all the ladies in Qiantang County well, whether the eldest brother admires the lively and lovely lady or likes the empathetic lady, the ...... in the east of the city"
Click......
A big knife rested on Xu Qian's neck again, and at the same time, there was a cold face under the faint light of the lantern on the street.
"If you don't want to marry, you don't want to, why do you need to do it." Xu Qian shrunk his neck and muttered in a low voice.
"What did you say?" The cold official drank lowly.
"No, nothing. I'm just thinking, since the eldest brother doesn't like to marry a daughter-in-law, he must be quite interested in the girl in the kiln? That's it, the wife is not as good as a concubine, the concubine is not as good as a prostitute, I can't imagine that the eldest brother and the younger brother have the same aspirations, the younger brother sees that everyone is so involved, so the younger brother is the east, and then the eldest brother is satisfied, and when the eldest brother dies the fire, the younger brother will go with the eldest brother to see the prince and the princess? ”
This official was obviously not interested in listening to Xu Qian's nonsense, and continued to move forward with Xu Qian's arm.
Xu Qian was speechless, and said in his heart, aren't you just an errand for the eunuch, what kind of discipline are you talking about, the master can't fool you if you don't believe it. He rolled his eyes, took out his money bag in his hand, took out a piece of broken silver, threw it on the ground, and then shouted: "Wow, who is so immoral, throwing silver on the street casually, such a large piece will kill people!" ”
The official was indifferent and dragged Xu Qian away as usual.
Xu Qian shouted, "Hey, hey, silver...... It's enough to have one, two, or three dollars, big brother, why don't you pick it up. ”
The official was expressionless.
Xu Qian burst into tears: "God, my silver...... My one, two, three or three pieces of silver......"
Xu Qian didn't notice it, and a trace of coldness inadvertently passed through the official's eyes.
After turning a street, the mansion of the town guard eunuch was already in sight, and the official dragged Xu Qian and pulled him into a small alley.
Xu Qian was nervous, and said in his heart that this guy was not going to kill people? He was blocked by the burly body of the official, so he could only lean against the back wall, looked at the official vigilantly, and said, "Aren't you going to see the prince?" ”
"Yes, that's right, I'm going to see the prince, but before that, I have something to say to you." The official smiled at Xu Qiansen, although he was as indifferent as Fang Cai, but he talked more than before.
Xu Qian felt that something was not quite right, and said, "What do you want to say?" ”
The official sneered: "It's nothing, didn't you just say that you want to go to Lichun Courtyard in the east, and you said that you lost the silver?" I see that your money bag is quite heavy, and there must be a lot of broken silver. Hey, the temper of the prince, I know very well, if you go in this time, he will let you go? As you just said, you and I are destined, so it's better to leave your money bag to me for safekeeping. ”
Xu Qian is not a fool, the so-called custody is actually a sheep into the mouth of a tiger, and he hurriedly shook his head like a rattle, and said: "No, this is what I earned hard, why did I give it to you?" ”
The official rarely showed a little treacherous smile, patted Xu Qian's shoulder with his hand, and said, "There are brothers in the four seas, and now that brothers are in trouble, can I stand by and watch?" Your money bag is handed over to me for safekeeping, and it saves me from being searched, I am here for your good, everyone meets in Pingshui, but it is quite fateful, I can't see death without help. Don't worry, I'll go and say hello to your executioner later, although I can't guarantee that you won't suffer from flesh and skin, but my life will always be left for you. ”
This girl is clearly black and black, and Xu Qian thought that this guy was not moved by fame and fortune, and it turned out that people didn't look down on the little profit he had just promised.
The official cha looked at Xu Qian with a good look for you, Xu Qian looked at the official cha with a ruthless look, the eyes of the two were staggered, Xu Qian suddenly felt like a little Lori who was abducted by a strange uncle with a lollipop.
"Okay, big brother is so righteous, what else do I have to say." Xu Qian gritted his teeth, immediately untied his money bag, and sent it over very generously, this is all the silver he usually saves from selling prescriptions, but he can't give it or not, people are just abducting now, if the abduction fails, it will be robbed later, and it is good to be a good person.
"Good brother!" The official patted Xu Qian's shoulder, and said sincerely.
"Good big brother......" Xu Qian's eyes were red, and there were faint tears flickering.
"I recognize your brother, my name is Deng Jian, you will call me Brother Deng in the future, Brother Deng is righteous and thin, and Qiantang County is also well-known for being impatient and righteous, don't worry, Big Brother will not let you suffer."
"I wish you, a righteous bastard, to be hit by a carriage tomorrow when you go out." Xu Qian scolded in his heart, but wiped his eyes, squeezed out a little tears, took Deng Jian's hand and said, "Brother Deng is so good to the little brother, the little brother must remember it." ”
"What are these words? Although we didn't burn yellow paper, but Brother Deng didn't need to be so polite to you, sticking a knife in my brother's ribs is my guideline for someone Deng. Yes, Brother Deng has one more thing, I think it will be good for you, come, come, you just need to make a handprint here. Putting the money bag into his sleeve, Deng Jian was in a very good mood, and took out a piece of paper from his sleeve with a smile, and there were many small words written densely in the paper, handed the paper to Xu Qian, took out a box of red clay, and said with a smile: "Come, just draw a bet in the lower right corner." ”
Xu Qian's eyes widened and he looked at the words on the paper, and couldn't help but gasp, sure enough, it was a good brother, this is a letter, the letter was written to his father, saying that he was already trapped in the mansion of the eunuch, and asked the old man to try to rescue him, and it was best to raise a few silver taels and hand it over to the official Deng Jian to deal with.
This...... It's really a bone peeling. This bastard had already prepared the letter, and it was estimated that he had already thought about eating himself before coming to him.
"Brother Deng......"
"You don't have to say any more." Deng Jian patted Xu Qian's shoulder, stopped Xu Qian from continuing, and said affectionately: "You and I are brothers, your business is my business, hurry up and draw a charge, after the drawing, we will go to see the prince, well, press there and it will be...... Yes? You don't want to, boy, Brother Deng has clear grievances and grievances, and he is like a breeze to his brothers, but if he is Brother Deng's enemy, then he will draw his sword and splash blood in five steps......"
………………………………………………
was dragged to the eunuch's mansion, Xu Qian was completely out of luck, and his heart was desperate to the extreme, in the past, he was only abducted and deceived, but he didn't expect to be blackmailed by this surnamed Deng today, he secretly thought in his heart: "Don't let the master have a chance to turn over, otherwise you will be called good-looking." ”
Then I thought in a mess, what good could I do if the prince was notoriously ruthless and ruthless?
The scale of the eunuch's mansion is not small, there are two stone lions in front of the house, as if plated with a halo under the faint swagger of the lantern, the stone lion is hideous, with a bloody mouth and a big mouth, and the big eyes like copper bells seem to mock the passers-by.
At the door are two doormen, both of whom are burly, although they are wearing green clothes and hats, they do not look like good stubble.
"The man has been brought." Deng Jian dragged Xu Qian and regained his cold appearance.
The two men glanced at Xu Qian and nodded in unison.
One of the family members had already grabbed Xu Qian's hand, Deng Jian was willing to let Xu Qian go, he delivered the mission, and did not forget to say to Xu Qian with a smile: "Brother Xu, we will have a meeting later." ”
Xu Qian scolded in his heart: "Don't let me see you again." But he said with a smile on his face: "Brother Deng...... Take care. ”
Mending was obviously not interested in letting Xu Qian continue to grind, and one of them had already lifted Xu Qian up and dragged Xu Qian into the mansion.
Xu Qian was extremely sad and indignant in his heart, if he was older, he would not be bullied by these guys at will, and now being brought in is really not very elegant.
Entering the eunuch's mansion, there were many archways and Yimen, Xu Qian scolded in his heart: You are a dead eunuch, what are you doing with so many archways? You think you're a bitch?
He was a little scared in his heart, he was just a very inconspicuous traverser, he wanted force without force value, he wanted to have a background without a background, this time, I hope the dead eunuch just cleaned up, and don't do anything real.
I don't know how many Langfang and Moon Caves I passed, and I entered the triple Yimen, and the doorman carrying Xu Qian stopped under the corridor outside an attic, and it happened that a little guy in a green coat and a small hat came over, looked at Xu Qian coldly, and said to the doorman: "Take it in, the prince is already in a hurry." ”
The doorman nodded, and carried Xu Qian into the attic, the attic is the layout of the hall, but it is obviously not a formal hall, it is said that the flower hall in the backyard is almost the same. Xu Qian was speechless in his heart, he pulled himself here, presumably he was going to use lynching, he was pushed to the center of the hall by the doorman, his eyes looked left and right, the decoration here was actually quite elegant, the east wall hung many calligraphy and paintings, the west wall was hung with swords, guqin, the corner of the wall was a chrysanthemum lamp shelf, and the candle flame was covered with a red gauze cover, so that the hall was faintly bright.
On the north wall hung a pair of well-framed calligraphy and paintings, and by the light, Xu Qian saw that the banner read 'Gong Shun Zhong Liang'.
Xu Qian secretly slandered in his heart, he had only heard warnings such as 'the sea is inclusive', 'above board' or 'heaven rewards diligence' on the main wall, and he had never heard of someone hanging a banner like 'respectful and loyal' on the north wall of the main hall, and the taste of this dead eunuch was really unusual.
"Ahem......" coughing sounded out.
Xu Qian heard the voice, and then he focused his attention on a scarlet-robed man sitting behind the desk under the text panel.
This person is high on the chair, about forty years old, his face is white and beardless, and the maintenance of his skin is very good, but at this time, this person is staring at himself, Xu Qian feels that his eyes are gloomy and compassionate, which makes people very uncomfortable.
This person is the prince?
Xu Qian didn't say a word, and hurriedly saluted with a smile: "Villain Xu Qian, I've seen my father-in-law." ”
At this time, playing tricks with the prince is looking for death, Xu Qian decided to restrain his Wang Ba's spirit honestly and obediently be a good citizen.
Anyway, he is a child, and it is nothing to kneel down and salute, compared to his life, the so-called domineering side leakage and tiger body shock are a joke, and most of the execution grounds at the entrance of the vegetable market are the kind of guys who emit too much of the king's spirit.
"So that's you?" The prince looked at Xu Qian calmly, but he didn't seem to expect that the guy who sold the prescription was so young, and he was a little surprised.
"Tsk, I can't imagine that the skin and tender meat are quite handsome."
This sentence made Xu Qian's heart a little furious, he had always known that the dead eunuchs had a heavy taste, could it be this dead eunuch......
So cold sweat seeped out of his forehead, and under the shadow of the candle, it seemed that Xu Qian's face exuded a layer of dim light.
