Chapter XVI: Conspiracy
Jiang Ningcheng said that it was not big, but it was not small, Chen Yuan got up early in the morning and continued to walk around the alleys. Nothing is achieved overnight, you can't go back to modern times, you have to integrate into this era first.
Chen Yuan didn't mention how uncomfortable it was these days, can you imagine the commotion in the heart of a claw machine party who has not had a mobile phone for a few days? Can you imagine a high-speed rail thousands of miles, a plane a day to travel the country. Is it uncomfortable to not be able to leave a county for half a day? The air is fresh, but there are all kinds of delicacies, spices, and what you want. After a few days, Chen Yuan felt that he had lost at least two pounds.
As for the clothes, they are all handmade, and the quality is really good. However, there is no high-tech, it is not breathable and hot in summer, and it is not warm and cold in winter, as for the design of modern clothing styles to Daming, forget it, without high-tech support, it can't be done, and strange clothes are also made into alternatives. In feudal society, do you still remember the first time the Empress Dowager Cixi saw the train, they foolishly regarded the train as a monster and pushed it down the cliff. That was still in the Qing Dynasty for hundreds of years, let alone the Ming Dynasty.
The supremacy of monarchy and the supremacy of Confucianism.
Reform must be proved with blood.
Don't think about strange things, or you'll just die faster.
This society, no matter what era it is, is for us to adapt to it, not for society to adapt to us.
Chen Yuan had been to the blacksmith shop, where the master of farming tools was shirtless and clanging. I have been to the grocery store, which sells some hairpins, all kinds of sundries, butterfly hairpins, mandarin duck hairpins, peach heart hairpins, the price is cheap, Chen Yuan has no one to send, wasting the sales boss half a day of saliva.
I have been to the ceramic shop, the pots and pans are placed in rows, the condition is not very good, the nobles use the official kiln products, these shops are mainly facing the common people, and they can be used.
The business of the oil and rice shop is naturally the best, firstly, the price is fair, and secondly, people cannot do without these. After a little inquiry, it was basically monopolized by the Li family.
After going out of the alley, I went to the suburbs for a while, and only then did I come to the willow tree where I saw the little county lord yesterday.
The little county lord lowered his head, put his hands on his cheeks, and looked at the Qinhuai River, his expression still haggard.
"Oh, little princess, why are you here so early?"
The county lord came back to his senses and said angrily, "It's that you're too late." ”
"I'm going to school in the morning."
"Phew, don't come to coax me, I don't know where to go."
"How do you know-" Chen Yuan was surprised.
The county lord gave him a blank look: "With strange things in your hands, grass seeds on your head, and sleeves off your sleeves, I wonder if your school teaches you to plant flowers and raise trees." ”
Chen Yuan touched his head and found half a leaf. made a mistake, picked the fruit in his hand and gave it to the county lord: "This is a mulberry fruit, we call it blood vine there, you can taste it." "This is what he just saw in the suburbs.
The lord of the county saw that it was like grapes in a bunch, orange-red, yellow-brown to purple-black, and it was very tempting.
The county lord hadn't seen it, Chen Yuan handed it to her, and she hesitated.
"Don't worry, the wild fruits outside the mountains are delicious."
The county lord turned around and tasted one gently.
"It's a little sour."
"That's right, wild fruit, this thing nourishes the liver and kidneys, nourishes the blood, and calms the nerves and nourishes the heart."
Although the county lord felt slightly sour, he ate five in a row. She has been sick for a long time, and she has no taste except for the smell of medicine, which is sour, but it tastes.
"Don't eat too much, or your mouth will become a crow."
The county lord snorted and stopped eating.
The county lord took out a handkerchief and gently wiped the corners of his mouth.
Chen Yuan sat down, coughed, and started today's story.
"At the bottom of the sea, deep, deep, there is a majestic castle where six mermaid princesses live, all of them are very beautiful, especially the youngest princess, who has long golden hair, who is more beautiful than her sisters, and who likes to hear her sisters say many new things on the sea......"
"The mermaid princess has a beautiful voice that no one else can match......"
When the story of the princess was mentioned, the county lord was very interested, holding his chin in both hands and listening attentively.
"One day, a great ship came to the sea, and on board was the prince of the human race, the prince was handsome and intelligent, and was having a birthday party, and the princess was attracted by the prince's abundance. But suddenly there was a strong wind, and the boat capsized......"
The mermaid princess tried her best to save the prince, but someone came, and the mermaid princess had to dodge. The prince was taken care of by a Terran woman and woke up, and the prince fell in love with a Terran woman......"
"The mermaid princess is very sad, she wants to become a human, she wants to be very much. So the mermaid princess went to the witch to help her fulfill her wish, and the witch said, 'I have a way to make you human, but when your tail becomes a foot, it will hurt like a knife when you walk, and if the prince marries someone else, you will turn into a bubble and die.' In exchange, the mermaid princess had to give her beautiful voice to the witch. The mermaid princess agreed without hesitation. ”
"But in the end, the prince married the Terran woman."
"The mermaid princess's sisters found the mermaid princess before the prince's marriage, saying that they went to the witch and exchanged their hair for a sword, which could be used to kill the prince and smear the prince's blood on his feet, and they would turn back into mermaid ......"
The county lord's heart suddenly became nervous, and he unconsciously substituted for the mermaid princess. Does the mermaid princess kill the prince? The county lord couldn't help but think.
The mermaid princess made up her mind and entered the prince's chamber while he was asleep; But looking at the prince's peaceful face, he couldn't do anything. At dawn, the mermaid princess said to herself on a dilapidated deck, 'Goodbye! So the mermaid princess's body slowly turned into many colorful bubbles......
The girl is amorous, and the corners of the county lord's eyes are moist. muttered, "What a mermaid princess." ”
Chen Yuan retorted: "I think this princess is a fool, with such good conditions, you can find ten or eight men, there are all kinds of things, but she hanged herself on a tree, and people don't know ......"
"Nonsense." The county lord glared angrily, this guy would ruin the atmosphere, and a good touching love would be despised by him like this.
From the late Tang Dynasty onwards, small stories such as the legend of Yanagi appeared. But it's mainly talented and beautiful, and they are reunited in the end. At this time in the Ming Dynasty, these idle books could not be seen by the county lord, and Chen Yuan said that it made him sentimental. Of course, Chen Yuan is talking about Hans Christian Andersen's fairy tales, and it is impossible for the county lord to turn through the books of Daming.
Chen Yuan scratched his head, in the future life, don't talk about any feelings. The ticket is the relationship, and with the ticket, no matter how big the gap between men and women is, they will say that they are married to love. If you don't have a ticket, you will say that others are scum and others are unworthy.
The story, you can see it, don't take it seriously. He didn't want to think about it, he was a thirty-year-old man, and the county lord was only a twelve-year-old girl.
"Big Big Wolf, if you were that princess, would you kill the prince?"
Big Big Wolf, who is it called? Chen Yuan looked around, it couldn't be that he called me. I'm a good citizen who is honest, this title, I want to refute it, forget it, I have the right to coax the child to be happy, and when I saw the county lord's eyes, I said: "Of course, the dead friend is not the poor road, if I were me, I will definitely poke the prince into 100,000 transparent holes, ah." ”
"I don't pay attention to you" The county lord stepped on Chen Yuan hatefully, left angrily, ran a few steps, and turned back again, "I will never listen to your story again." ”
This time it was Chen Yuan's turn to be dumbfounded, just a story, as for it.
The county lord only felt angry in his heart, the gray wolf was really not a good wolf, and he still didn't come to listen to his story tomorrow, no, he won't come in the future.

In the south of the city, an abandoned courtyard is full of debris and is inaccessible.
A tall man looked solemn until another young man in white arrived.
The man said, "You're here, where is Yuemei?" ”
Wu Yuehe shook her head: "Senior Brother Wang, she is still young, I don't want her to know too much." ”
Wang Jinghong nodded and asked, "What did you hear from Zhu Zhanji last night?" ”
"This Zhu Zhanji seems to know something, I deliberately approached yesterday, he was very wary of me, but he told us that Dong Mingjing was locked up in Nanjing Mansion Prison and was not asked to go by Jinyi Guard."
"Very good, we must avenge Senior Brother Tie Heng, Dong Ming must die."
Wu Yuehe said coldly: "We have to find a way to meet that Dong Mingquan." ”
Wang Jinghong's expression was unnatural: "Senior sister, why?" ”
"Dong Ming, a powerless second ancestor, Senior Brother Tieheng's martial arts are not below you and me, how can he be killed so easily."
"Senior sister is right, but the prison in Nanjing Mansion is heavily guarded, so we have to think about it in the long run."
Wu Yuehe said: "So please take care of Senior Brother Tie and be sure to bring back Senior Brother Tie's body." ”
"This junior sister rest assured, I have been with Senior Brother Tie for so many years, if something happens to him, I am duty-bound to let him return to his hometown." Wang Jinghong assured, and asked again, "Then senior sister, you?" ”
"I want to find a way to meet Dong Ming?"
"There's a way."
"Maybe someone can."
"Who?"
Wu Yuehe said in a low voice: "Scholar Jiangning, Chen Yuan." ”
