Volume 1 The Return of the Old Man Chapter 138 Who are you?
So, does Yao Qi have anything to do with the Chen family or the Fang family?
Han Changdui's face gradually became gloomy.
Those who can enter the court as slaves are naturally relatives of criminal officials, and most of them are close relatives.
If she has a relationship with the Fang family, then he will do all his best to protect her and protect her from the death guard.
But if she has a relationship with the Chen family, then he has an enmity with her.
He sighed lowly, the hatred of the previous generation, in the final analysis, cannot be counted on the younger generations, but the hurdle in his heart is not so easy to cross.
Xie Mengxia knew that the Han Wangfu had a deep relationship with the convicted Fang family in the past, and Han Changdui had also lived in the Fang family for a period of time, and had a baby kiss with the young daughter of the Fang family.
However, God's will made people, and Fang Lingyun conspired against the sinner, and the evidence and material evidence were complete, and he was convicted.
Xie Mengxia asked in a low voice: "That little girl of the Fang family, when she was exiled, she was only ten years old, was there any news later?" ”
Han Changdui suddenly closed his eyes, opened his eyes after a while, and poured a sip of wine: "She followed her family to exile Zhenzhou, and along the way, her father sent people to follow and protect her, but when she arrived at the quarry, the quarry collapsed, and when the people from the palace went to save people, the people of the Fang family were buried in it, and she was not spared." ”
"This is deliberate, deliberately to let the Fang family not leave a single mouth." Xie Mengxia slapped his thigh heavily: "Jiuchao, fifteen years have passed since the incident, and you should let it go." ”
Han Changwan smiled bitterly and shook his head: "Put it down, how can it be so easy." ”
Xie Mengxia thought for a while, tilted his head and asked, "Jiu Chao, you are the most familiar with the situation of the Fang family, fifteen years ago, there was not a girl as big as Yao Qi in the Fang family." ”
Han Changwan closed his eyes and thought for a while, then shook his head firmly: "No, besides, Ah Qi's appearance is not like the Fang family." ”
Xie Mengxia sighed: "Then only the Chen family is left, the ancestral house of the Chen family is in Bianzhou, and later moved to Chang'an, we are not very familiar with it." ”
Han Changwan thought about Chen Yuying's appearance and sighed: "I think Ah Qi is more like the Chen family. ”
She is the Chen family, she has the same apricot eyes as the Chen family, the same bright and delicate appearance, but her heart is the most resolute and vicious.
He turned his head and looked at Yao Qi, perhaps it was precisely because she was the Chen family that she could not be afraid of Mo Heyan's difficulties, if she was a weak and delicate Fang family girl, she would never be able to get down.
There was no trace of a smile on Xie Mengxia's face, if there was no major deviation in their push, then Yao Qi was the Chen family.
There is no solution to this hatred that harms people.
Wheel platform of Guizi country.
The mountain range of Greedy Khan Mountain stretches very widely, and there are many branches, some of which extend to the country of Qiuzi, and Luntai City is built on the mountain.
There are a large number of pig iron stones in the depths of the Greedy Sweat Mountain, and the iron smelting technology of the Qiuzi country is exquisite and superb, and the fine iron tools in the countries of the Western Regions rely on this country to forge.
The roaring fire in the forging room at the foot of the mountain illuminates the night, and the sound of clanging resounds, day and night.
There were two people standing at the door of the forging room, not afraid of the heat wave inside.
The white-haired old man in a sheep's coat stood sideways, facing a man standing with his back to him, and whispered respectfully: "Holy Lord, this batch of weapons will be forged in three days." ”
In the blazing firelight, you can see that a very deep and wide cave has been dug at the foot of the mountain, and the heat is churning inside.
There were a hundred or so blacksmiths in the cave, all wearing only shorts, revealing their sturdy bronzed bodies, hot sweat sliding down their skins and soon steaming into a cloud of steam.
These people all wielded the hammer and thumped the iron, and the clanging sound was noisy and deafening.
The man standing with his back was draped in a cloak and a hood, covering his face tightly, and his voice was loud and condescending: "Forged, someone from the Gaochang Congress will come to pick it up." ”
The old man nodded: "My subordinates understand, it's just the Holy Master, why hasn't that batch of goods been sent yet, there won't be any problems with the Zhou family." ”
The man sneered: "There will be no problems with the Zhou family, and the one who has problems is probably that little cub." ”
The old man said in a deep voice: "Holy Lord, he was raised by you, he doesn't have the guts." ”
The man smiled: "He has grown up, his wings are stiff, and it is normal to be ambitious, but his ambition is also my ambition, no matter what he does, it is just to pave the way for me." ”
The old man nodded and smiled: "The Holy Lord is wise. ”
The man said calmly: "After the people from Weiyuan Dart Bureau have delivered the goods, there is no need to keep them. ”
The old man chattered: "The subordinates understand that they won't let them go out and talk nonsense." ”
Climb over the Greedy Sweat Mountain, bypass the camp of the Tiele Department, and go north to Gaochang City, the capital of Gaochang State.
In Gaochang country, Hu and Han people lived together, and a large number of Zhaowu nine surnames moved to this country, and the living habits of Hu people and Han people absorbed each other and communicated with each other.
Gaochang City is the most important stop on the westbound road, the caravans come and go in an endless stream, the city is very prosperous, and the wine shops, inns, pawnshops, and foot gangs are readily available.
As it approached noon, the wind that had been blowing for half a day gradually subsided, the sun shone down, the wind and sand dispersed, and the towering city gate was revealed.
The camel bell rang in front of the city gate, and among the bustling caravan travelers, two people looked very embarrassed.
The horses of these two men were all stained with mud and water, their faces were covered with wind and frost, and their beards were unkempt, and one of them looked clear, but his figure was not very good, he was very fat, and a huge felt blanket wrapped around him, and it was still tight.
At first glance, these two people are the kind of horse thieves who met on the road and were robbed.
The caravan looked at the tragic situation of these two people, and they all exchanged their hearts and talked about each other, and finally came to a conclusion.
These two people are a lesson for them, the road to the west is not easy to walk, so you should be extra careful.
These two embarrassed people were Han Changdui and Xie Mengxia who rushed over the Sweat Mountain with one leg of mud and one leg of snow to Gaochang.
As soon as the two men entered the city, they did not wander around the city like headless flies, looking for a place to stay, but drove through the streets and alleys with ease, and went straight to a narrow alley.
Xie Mengxia walked by, and the more he walked, the more strange he felt, and he asked suspiciously: "Jiuchao, have you been to Gaochang before?" ”
Han Changwan shook his head: "No, I'm also the first time to come back." ”
Xie Mengxia was even more strange, looking at the adobe walls on both sides of the alley, and then at the white wall and colored tile dome faintly leaking at the end of the alley, and asked puzzledly: "Then, how did you go to this place, this doesn't look like a place with a wine shop and inn." ”
Han Changwan looked back and smiled: "You just follow me, I'm afraid I'll sell you." ”
Xie Mengxia sighed, greeted the warm sunshine, and walked to the end of the alley.
The white-walled and color-tiled house gradually revealed its outline, and the warm sunlight flowed down from the dome, and the white walls were dyed with a slightly warm golden light.
There were two people standing in front of the house, both dressed as Hu people, and when they saw Han Changwan and the two of them entering, these two people hurriedly greeted them and led the horses.
The two saluted respectfully: "Shizi." ”
Han Changdui nodded, wrapped the felt blanket tightly in front of him, turned over and dismounted, and said as he walked, "Is there a secluded room?" ”
One of them said respectfully: "Yes, after receiving the letter from the prince, his subordinates cleaned the backyard." ”
"Lead the way, be quick." Han Changdu's footsteps were extremely fast, following behind the two of them, through the front yard, and straight to the backyard.
Pushing open the door of the room, a hot air mixed with a faint agarwood fragrance rushed to the face.
Han Changdui quickly walked to the big kang, shook the felt blanket on his body, and put the person in his arms on the kang.
Only then did the two of them realize that Han Changdui was holding a girl in his arms, no wonder he looked so awkward when he walked.
Han Changdui placed Yao Qi, wrote a prescription with a pen, handed it to one of them, his face was heavy, and he ordered solemnly: "Go and grab the medicine, run all over Gaochang City, and catch the medicine back, quickly." ”
The man did not dare to say yes carelessly, and ran out quickly.
The other man bowed down and said, "Shizi, you rest first, and then your subordinates will order someone to bring lunch." ”
Han Changdui nodded.
It wasn't until the man retreated and there was no figure that Xie Mengxia came back to his senses, looked at the scenery outside that was completely different from the Dajing Dynasty, and sighed: "Jiuchao, what kind of place is this." ”
Han Changdu's eyes froze: "This is the secret pile of the palace in Gaochang Kingdom, and it has been operating for decades. ”
Xie Mengxia nodded, hearing that it was his own territory, his mind that had been tense for so many days finally relaxed, and he suddenly smashed on the hot kang, and rolled around: "Ouch, great, I can finally sleep well and have a hot meal." ”
Han Changwan didn't relax in the slightest, his face was still very heavy, and he grabbed Yao Qi's wrist and cut his pulse.
Xie Mengxia reacted after realizing it, and hurriedly asked, "How is Ah Qi, since I woke up once, I haven't woken up again." ”
Han Changdui sighed heavily: "It's hard to say, let's try the medicine first." ”
As he spoke, lunch was brought in, and the two of them ate a meal without knowing the taste, although there was something in their hearts, and the food was tasteless, but it was a hot meal.
Xie Mengxia patted his bulging belly, smiled contentedly, and after laughing, he turned his head to look out the window: "Jiuchao, what's the matter, we have finished our lunch, why haven't we bought the medicine yet." ”
Han Changwan was holding a bowl of broth, holding Yao Qi with one hand, and slowly pouring a spoon into her mouth with the other, but her lips were closed very tightly, and half of it leaked out after pouring a spoonful.
It's only been a few days, Yao Qi has already lost his shape, a pair of apricot eyes are slightly protruding, his eye circles are blue, his face is pale, and he really doesn't look like a bright girl.
He pinched her skinny wrist and said slowly: "There is a medicine in that recipe that is not easy to buy, I'm afraid I will have to run a few more places." ”
As soon as the words fell, hurried footsteps broke in, and it was the person who went out to buy medicine, carrying a few packets of medicine in his hand, and gasped and said: "Shizi, there is a medicine, and my subordinates have run all over the city, but they haven't bought it." ”
